The coated glue is extracted into the adjustment tank through the extraction pipe, and the viscosity of the coated glue is accurately controlled by using a viscosity detector and a one-way control valve to maintain it within a certain range. The adjusted coated glue is reflowed back into the feed tank through the rubber replenishment pipe.

Benefits of technology

Through the use of the circulating glue replenishing device, the viscosity of the coated glue matches the surface tension of the substrate, ensuring that the coated glue maintains good leveling performance during long-term circulation and ensuring excellent coating performance of the micro-concave coating machine.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of film gluing, and more specifically, to a circulating glue replenishing device for a micro-concave coating machine. Background Art

[0002] With the growing market demand for high-functional films and the popularization of wet coating technology, micro-dimple coating machines are widely used in the high-end functional film deep processing industry.

[0003] As a type of gravure coating equipment, the micro-concave coating machine belongs to roller coating. The micro-concave coating machine uses a micro-concave roller, which is mounted on a bearing and partially immersed in the feed tray; the rotating shaft carries the coating glue, which is quantitatively measured by a flexible rigid scraper and then taken away by the reverse moving substrate to achieve uniform thin layer coating. The coating glue scraped off by the flexible scraper is returned to the feed tray for use until the liquid level of the coating glue in the feed tray cannot completely fill the surface grooves of the micro-concave roller, and it is necessary to manually add glue to the feed trough.

[0004] However, according to actual production, it is found that the leveling property of the coating glue after glue filling is poor. The reason is that the newly added coating glue is not evenly mixed with the residual coating glue in the feeding tray, and because the feeding trough is generally open, the residual coating glue is left for a long time, the solvent partially evaporates, and the viscosity of the residual coating glue increases. Even after the new coating glue is added, the overall viscosity of the coating glue is still too high, which does not match the surface tension of the substrate, and the leveling performance deteriorates. Utility Model Content

[0005] In order to solve the problem that the leveling performance of the coating glue deteriorates as the placement time increases, the present application provides a circulating glue replenishing device for a micro-dimpled coating machine.

[0006] The present application provides a circulating glue filling device for a micro-dimpled coating machine, which adopts the following technical solution:

[0007] A circulating glue filling device for a micro-dimpled coating machine, comprising:

[0008] Feed trough;

[0009] An extraction pipeline, connected to the feed tank;

[0010] A regulating tank, connected to the feed tank through the extraction pipeline;

[0011] A viscosity detector is installed in the regulating tank to detect the viscosity of the coating glue in the regulating tank;

[0013] A glue replenishing pipeline, wherein the feeding end of the glue replenishing pipeline is connected to the regulating tank, and the discharging end of the glue replenishing pipeline is connected to the feeding trough.

[0014] By adopting the above technical solution, the feed tank is used to store the coating glue, and the coating glue enters the adjustment tank through the extraction pipe. The solvent is replenished into the adjustment tank through the liquid inlet pipe to replenish the volatile solvent in the feed tank. After detection by the viscosity detector, the coating glue is maintained within the predetermined viscosity range. The adjusted coating glue is transported through the glue replenishment pipe and re-enters the feed tank, so that the viscosity of the coating glue in the feed tank matches the surface tension of the substrate. The coating glue maintains good leveling performance during the circulation process, ensuring that the micro-dimpled coating machine has excellent coating performance during long-term operation.

[0015] Furthermore, a one-way control valve is provided on the liquid inlet pipeline, and the one-way control valve is electrically connected to the viscosity detector.

[0016] By adopting the above technical solution, the viscosity tester can control the opening of the one-way control valve, and according to the change of viscosity, it helps to accurately control the viscosity of the coating glue within a predetermined viscosity range.

[0017] Furthermore, a liquid level meter is provided in the feed trough, and a detection end of the liquid level meter is in contact with the coating glue in the feed trough.

[0018] By adopting the above technical solution, the liquid level meter can detect the coating glue liquid level in the feed trough in real time, so as to conveniently remind the operator to replenish the coating glue in time.

[0019] Furthermore, a feed pipe is provided on the regulating tank, and the feed pipe is connected to a raw material storage tank of the coating glue.

[0020] Furthermore, a feed pump is provided on the feed pipeline.

[0021] By adopting the above technical solution, the coating glue can be automatically pumped from the coating glue raw material storage tank into the regulating tank through the cooperation of the feed pump and the feed pipeline, so as to replenish the solid content of the coating glue in time.

[0022] Furthermore, an agitator is installed in the regulating tank.

[0023] By adopting the above technical solution, the agitator can fully stir the materials in the adjusting tank, so that the materials in the adjusting tank are mixed evenly, which helps to improve the detection accuracy of the viscosity tester.

[0024] Furthermore, a one-way feed valve is provided on the glue filling pipeline, and the one-way feed valve is electrically connected to the liquid level meter.

[0025] By adopting the above technical solution, the liquid level meter monitors the liquid level of the coating glue in the feed trough in real time. When the coating glue drops to a certain liquid level, the one-way feed valve is opened to a suitable opening to replenish the coating glue in time. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

A liquid level gauge 12 is provided in the feed tank 1, and a one-way feed valve 41 is provided on the glue supply pipe 4. The one-way feed valve 41 is electrically connected to the liquid level gauge 12.
