Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of fiber materials technology, specifically to an antibacterial and anti-mite fiber and its preparation method. Background Technology
[0002] With increasing demands for health and hygiene, the functionality and diversity of home textiles such as mattresses and sheets are becoming more prevalent. However, while traditional fiber materials are widely used in these areas, their antibacterial and anti-mite capabilities are limited, failing to meet the needs for a healthy sleep environment. The proliferation of bacteria and mites in bedding not only easily leads to health problems such as skin allergies and respiratory illnesses but also shortens the lifespan of textiles, resulting in economic losses. Therefore, improving the antibacterial and anti-mite properties of textiles has become a crucial issue urgently needing to be addressed by the textile industry. While some fiber materials with antibacterial or anti-mite functions have been developed in existing technologies, these materials typically have limited functionality and unstable performance in complex environments, making it difficult to achieve multiple layers of protection and long-term use.
[0003] To address these issues, existing antibacterial and anti-mite fibers on the market typically achieve their effectiveness by adding antibacterial or anti-mite agents to the fibers. However, after a period of use, these antibacterial and anti-mite agents are easily lost, leading to functional degradation. Furthermore, these fibers generally lack self-healing capabilities, making it difficult to restore their functionality when subjected to mechanical damage. This deficiency limits their widespread application in practical situations, especially in scenarios requiring long-term use and durability.

[0069] S5.4 Connect and debug the fibers embedded with the intelligent system to enable the sensor to work properly and provide feedback signals.
[0070] Specifically, the preparation of S5.1 smart response materials and micro-sensors:
[0071] Material selection: Select smart responsive materials that are sensitive to temperature and humidity, such as shape memory polymers or liquid crystal polymers with temperature and humidity responsive properties.
[0072] Sensor Selection: Choose miniature temperature and humidity sensors with dimensions ranging from 1mm to 5mm, ensuring that the sensor can be embedded in the fiber without affecting its mechanical properties. The sensor needs to have high accuracy and low power consumption; common choices include microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) sensors.
[0073] Location and Quantity Determination: The embedding locations of the smart response materials and sensors are determined based on the fiber's intended use. Typically, sensors should be evenly distributed across the middle or surface layers of the fiber to ensure uniform smart response capabilities throughout the entire fiber. The number of embedded sensors depends on the fiber's final application; for example, when used in fabrics, the sensor density can be appropriately increased.
[0074] Embedding of S5.2 smart response materials and sensors
[0075] Embedding device preparation: Using a specially designed embedding device, smart responsive materials and micro-sensors are embedded into the fiber. The embedding device needs to have high precision and efficient operation capabilities to ensure that the material and sensor can be accurately embedded in the designated location.
[0076] Spinning process control: During the spinning process, the smart responsive material is embedded into the middle or surface layer of the fiber using an embedding device. To avoid adverse effects on the fiber's structure and properties, the embedding temperature must be controlled between 80°C and 120°C. This temperature range ensures that the fiber material is in a suitable melting state, facilitating embedding, without damaging the functionality of the sensor or smart responsive material.
[0077] Embedding process: During the spinning process, smart responsive materials are uniformly distributed within the fibers through a continuous and precisely controlled embedding method. Embedded sensors are connected to the fiber's smart system via tiny wires or wireless transmission modules to ensure data transmission and processing.
[0078] Combination of S5.3 sensor and smart response material
[0079] Materials and Sensors Integration: The integration of smart-response materials with micro-sensors is achieved through both physical embedding and chemical bonding. During embedding, the smart-response material encapsulates and secures the sensor, ensuring its stability within the fiber while guaranteeing its ability to sensitively detect minute changes in the environment.
[0080] System Integration: The smart responsive material, combined with sensors, forms a complete responsive system. This system can detect changes in temperature and humidity in the external environment in real time and feed the data back to the control unit or user interface outside the fiber via the built-in sensor module.
[0081] Connection and debugging of S5.4 system
[0082] System connectivity: The embedded intelligent response system connects to an external electronic control unit. The connection can be achieved either by transmitting data to the external control module via microwires or by remote signal transmission via a wireless module.
[0083] The basic structure of the embedding device in step S5,2 is as follows:
[0084] Precision control unit: This unit controls the precision of the embedding device, including position, depth, and angle, ensuring that the smart response material and sensors are precisely embedded into the designated locations on the fiber. It typically consists of a computer-controlled fine-tuning system that allows for synchronous embedding during rapid fiber stretching.
[0085] Heating and Temperature Control Module: The embedding device is equipped with a heating module that can control the temperature of the embedding area between 80°C and 120°C to ensure the proper melting state of the fiber material, facilitating the embedding of the intelligent response material and sensor. Simultaneously, this module can accurately monitor the temperature to prevent damage to the sensor or fiber material from excessive heat.
[0086] Embedded needles or catheters: The core component of the device consists of delicate embedded needles or catheters used to inject or insert smart responsive materials and micro-sensors into the fibrous material. The diameter of the needles or catheters is typically very small to match the size of the sensors, and they need to be flexible enough to adapt to the dynamic changes in the fibers during spinning.
[0087] Sensor securing and releasing mechanism: The device incorporates a miniature robotic arm or other securing mechanism to firmly grasp the sensor during embedding and precisely release it at the appropriate location. This process requires high synchronization with fiber stretching speed and temperature changes to avoid any deviation or damage.
[0088] Synchronous spinning system: The embedding device is integrated into the spinning equipment and remains synchronized with the speed and tension systems of the spinning system. The close cooperation between the embedding device and the spinning system ensures that the smart response material and sensors are smoothly embedded during fiber formation.
[0089] Working principle of the embedded device:
[0090] Sensor and Material Delivery: Smart Response materials and micro-sensors are delivered to the operating area of the embedding device via delivery channels or guide needles. This area is close to the fiber stretching zone, ensuring that the material and sensors can be embedded at critical moments in fiber formation.
[0091] Embedding process control: When the fiber is stretched to the target thickness, the embedding device, at a set temperature, embeds the smart responsive material and sensors into the middle or surface layer of the fiber through precise mechanical actions. The embedding depth, position, and number of sensors are monitored in real time by the device's precision control unit.
[0092] Post-embedding curing: After embedding, the fiber material is quickly cured through the cooling zone, ensuring that the embedded smart response material and sensor are firmly fixed in the fiber structure and are not easy to fall off or move.
