Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to a dyeing device, in particular to an ultrasonic dyeing device. Background Art

[0002] Referring to Figure 1 , an existing ultrasonic dyeing device is applicable to dye a greige cloth 10. The existing ultrasonic dyeing device includes an outer cylinder 11 defining an accommodation space 111, a plurality of rollers 12 rotatably arranged in the outer cylinder 11 and located in the accommodation space 111, and four ultrasonic oscillators 13 arranged in the outer cylinder 11 and located in the accommodation space 111. In actual use, the outer cylinder 11 is used to contain a dye liquor 14. The greige cloth 10 is driven by the rollers 12 to be immersed in the dye liquor 14, and the ultrasonic oscillators 13 emit ultrasonic waves to accelerate the action of the dye particles in the dye liquor 14 on the greige cloth 10 to complete the dyeing operation.

[0003] However, during the dyeing operation, in order to ensure that the ultrasonic waves emitted by the ultrasonic oscillators 13 can completely cover the accommodation space 111, the ultrasonic oscillators 13 with corresponding power need to be installed in the outer cylinder 11 according to the amount of the dye liquor 14. For example, for dyeing operation of standard-width garment fabrics of 2000 meters, 450 liters of the dye liquor 14 are required, and the power required for each liter of the dye liquor 14 converted to the ultrasonic oscillators 13 is 8 - 10 watts. Therefore, the ultrasonic oscillators 13 with a total power of 3600 - 4500 watts need to be set under the above conditions. In this way, the existing ultrasonic dyeing device will not only cause a large amount of power loss, but also more easily damage the outer cylinder 11 due to the large vibration generated by the ultrasonic oscillators 13.

[0020] Refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 , an embodiment of the ultrasonic dyeing device of the present utility model, which is suitable for dyeing a greige cloth 91 with a dye liquor 92.

[0021] The embodiment includes a frame 1, an outer cylinder 2, an oscillation unit 3, and a transmission unit 4.

[0022] The outer cylinder 2 is disposed on the frame 1 and defines an accommodation space 21. The outer cylinder 2 includes a bottom wall 22 of the cylinder, and a cylinder surrounding wall 23 connected to the bottom wall 22 of the cylinder along an up-and-down direction D1 and surrounding the bottom wall 22 of the cylinder.

[0023] The oscillation unit 3 is located in the accommodation space 21, and includes an oscillation tank 31 defining an oscillation space 311, a plurality of ultrasonic oscillators 32 connected to the oscillation tank 31 along the up-and-down direction D1, a mounting housing 33 connected to the oscillation tank 31 along the up-and-down direction D1, and eight fixing members 34 fixedly connecting the mounting housing 33 and the bottom wall 22 of the cylinder. It should be noted that the numbers of the ultrasonic oscillators 32 and the fixing members 34 can be adjusted according to requirements, and are not limited to this embodiment.

[0024] The oscillating tank 31 has a tank bottom wall 312 and a tank surrounding wall 313 that is connected to the tank bottom wall 312 along the vertical direction D1 and surrounds the tank bottom wall 312. The tank surrounding wall 313 and the cylinder surrounding wall 23 together define four gaps 314. In a variation of this embodiment, the number of the gaps 314 can be changed to one to three according to the setting relationship between the tank surrounding wall 313 and the cylinder surrounding wall 23.

[0025] The tank surrounding wall 313 has two side wall portions 315 that are spaced apart from each other in a front - rear direction D2 perpendicular to the vertical direction D1, and two hole wall portions 316 that are connected between the side wall portions 315. The hole wall portions 316 are spaced apart from each other in a left - right direction D3 perpendicular to both the vertical direction D1 and the front - rear direction D2.

[0026] The side wall portions 315 extend obliquely from the tank bottom wall 312 toward the side opposite to the oscillation space 311, thereby defining the upwardly expanding oscillation space 311. Figure 2 Viewed from [angle not specified in the original, so it's left as is], the oscillation space 311 is V - shaped.

[0027] The hole wall portions 316 extend upward along the vertical direction D1 from the tank bottom wall 312. Each hole wall portion 316 has a plurality of through - holes 317. In this embodiment, the hole wall portion 316 is a stainless - steel perforated plate, and the widths of the two gaps 314 defined by the hole wall portion 316 and the cylinder surrounding wall 23 are between 5 and 15 centimeters.

[0028] The ultrasonic oscillator 32 is connected to the tank bottom wall 312 to emit ultrasonic waves toward the oscillation space 311.

[0029] The mounting housing 33 and the tank bottom wall 312 together define a mounting space 331 for mounting the ultrasonic oscillator 32.

[0030] The fixing members 34 are all L - shaped angle steels.

[0031] The transmission unit 4 is rotatably disposed on the frame 1 and includes two flat support rollers 41 located in the oscillation space 311, two auxiliary rollers 42 located in the accommodation space 21, and two driving rollers 43 located above the accommodation space 21 along the vertical direction D1.

[0032] The flat support rollers 41 are spaced apart along one of the front - rear directions D2 and are located between the auxiliary rollers 42 along the front - rear direction D2. The flat support rollers 41 are located above the ultrasonic oscillator 32 along the vertical direction D1, the flat support rollers 41 are at the same height along the vertical direction D1, and the diameters of the flat support rollers 41 are substantially the same.

[0033] Define the part of the accommodation space 21 excluding the oscillation space 311 and the installation space 331 as a buffer space 211, and the oscillation space 311 communicates with the buffer space 211. Before actual use, first inject the dye solution 92 into the accommodation space 21 and submerge the oscillation tank 31. The dye solution 92 can then flow between the oscillation space 311 and the buffer space 211 through the gap 314 and the perforation 317, thereby balancing the concentration of the dye solution 92 between the oscillation space 311 and the buffer space 211.

[0034] For example, in this embodiment, the capacity of the accommodation space 21 is 450 liters, the capacity of the buffer space 211 is 300 liters, and the capacity of the oscillation space 311 is 150 liters. During actual use, 450 liters of the dye solution 92 are required for dyeing operation of standard-width garment fabrics of 2000 meters. Therefore, 450 liters of the dye solution 92 are filled into the accommodation space 21, and the ultrasonic oscillator 32 only needs to emit ultrasonic waves in the oscillation space 311. Therefore, when calculating the required power of the ultrasonic oscillator 32, only the capacity of the oscillation space 311 needs to be considered, that is, the ultrasonic oscillator 32 with a total power of 1200 - 1500 watts can be set, which

[0035] obviously has the effect of reducing power consumption.

[0036] Next, the greige cloth 91 is driven by the driving roller 43, the auxiliary roller 42 and the flat support roller 41 to be immersed in the dye solution 92. The flat support roller 41 flattens the part of the greige cloth 91 facing the ultrasonic oscillator 32 relative to the ultrasonic oscillator 32, so that the part of the greige cloth 91 facing the ultrasonic oscillator 32 is substantially parallel to the bottom wall 312 of the tank connected to the ultrasonic oscillator 32, and the dye solution 92 can penetrate into the greige cloth 91 at a better angle along with the impact force generated by the ultrasonic waves, thereby improving the efficiency of the dye particles of the dye solution 92 acting on the greige cloth 91.

[0037] In summary, this embodiment has the following effects:

[0038] (1) By setting the outer cylinder 2, the oscillation tank 31 and the ultrasonic oscillator 32, not only the efficiency of the dye particles of the dye solution 92 acting on the greige cloth 91 is improved, but also because the ultrasonic oscillator 32 only needs to emit ultrasonic waves in the oscillation space 311, the power required for the whole can be evaluated based on the amount of the dye solution 92 contained in the relatively small oscillation space 311, thereby having the effect of reducing power consumption.

[0039] (2) By setting the flat support roller 41 to flatten the part of the blank fabric 91 facing the ultrasonic oscillator 32, the part of the blank fabric 91 facing the ultrasonic oscillator 32 is made substantially parallel to the bottom wall 312 of the groove connected to the ultrasonic oscillator 32, thereby improving the efficiency of the dye particles in the dyeing solution 92 acting on the blank fabric 91.

[0040] (3) By setting the oscillating space 311 in an upwardly gradually expanding shape, the ultrasonic waves generated by the ultrasonic oscillator 32 interfere with each other with the ultrasonic waves reflected by the side wall portion 315, and various oscillating waves of different modes are generated according to the depth, thereby generating a multi-level oscillating effect, which cooperates to improve the efficiency of the dye particles in the dyeing solution 92 acting on the blank fabric 91.

[0041] (4) By setting the ultrasonic oscillator 32 that emits ultrasonic waves towards the oscillating space 311, the ultrasonic waves can be confined within the oscillating space 311 as much as possible, thereby reducing the vibration damage caused by the ultrasonic waves emitted by the ultrasonic oscillator 32 to the outer cylinder 2.

[0042] Therefore, the ultrasonic dyeing device of the present invention can reduce power consumption and can indeed achieve the purpose of the present invention.

[0043] The above is only an embodiment of the present invention, and the scope of implementation of the present invention cannot be limited thereby. All simple equivalent changes and modifications made according to the claims and the content of the specification of the present invention still fall within the scope covered by the present invention.
