Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of hot press equipment, and particularly relates to a heating device for a hot press. Background Art
[0002] At present, the structural forms of hot presses are diverse, but their basic structure and working principle are roughly the same: they mainly consist of a hot press plate and an oil cylinder, which controls the movement of the hot press plate to achieve pressurization; a heating channel is opened in the hot press plate, and heat is usually provided to the hot press plate by thermal oil or resistance wire, heating tube, etc. However, the above methods of providing heat all have major disadvantages.
[0003] The heat source for the hot press is mainly provided by natural gas, which heats the heat transfer oil (medium) in the boiler (mold temperature controller) and is then pressurized by a circulating pump and transported to the hot press plate through a pipeline, so that the hot press plate reaches the necessary working temperature. However, my country relies on large-scale imports of natural gas, which produces a large amount of CO2 and NO when burned. S Harmful gases such as argon, argon, and coke are emitted, and the boiler (mold temperature controller) furnace body, exhaust port, circulation pump, pipeline, valve, etc. cause large heat loss, and the thermal energy utilization rate is about 45%. At the same time, a large number of safety accidents are related to it. Laboratories or small-batch production often use resistance wires and heating tubes to heat the pressing plate, which are easy to oxidize and have a short service life. During use, problems are prone to occur, delaying production and increasing costs. In addition, the thermoelectric conversion rate is relatively low and the heating speed is slow. This has also resulted in the fact that resistance wires and heating tubes are rarely used to heat the hot pressing plate in this field, and are not used in industrial production applications. Utility Model Content
[0004] In response to the current technical problems, the utility model provides a hot press heating device with a simple structure, easy installation, high heat utilization rate, low energy consumption, safety, environmental protection and energy saving. It can fundamentally solve the current situation of high energy consumption, high pollution and high safety risks in the use of hot presses.
[0005] The technical solution of the utility model is as follows:

More preferably, the thickness of the first protective layer is ≥1 mm, and the thickness of the second protective layer is ≥2 mm.

[0014] Further preferably, the gap between the upper metal heat conducting plate and the lower metal heat conducting plate is sealed with sealant.
[0015] Graphene heating materials have excellent thermal conductivity.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0026] In order to clearly illustrate the technical features of this solution, the present invention is described in detail below through specific implementation methods and in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.
[0027] like Figure 1 As shown, a hot press heating device, the heating device 9 is arranged on the hot press, and the heating device 9 comprises a first protective layer 1, a first insulating layer 2, a graphene heating layer 3, a second insulating layer 4, and a second protective layer 5 in sequence; both ends of the graphene heating layer 3 are connected to the control system through wires; the graphene heating layer 3 is composed of graphene crystals or graphene filaments, with a density of 100 to 300 g / m 2 Setting; the first insulating layer 2, the second insulating layer 4 are made of insulating glue, the insulation resistance is 0.5MΩ / kV ~ 1MΩ / kV, high temperature above 300 ℃, 100 ~ 300g / m 2 set up.
[0028] In another embodiment, a temperature measuring element is provided on the graphene heating layer 3 (the temperature measuring element is not shown in the figure), and the temperature measuring element is connected to the control system through a wire.
[0029] The control system adopts a PLC control system, the specific equipment is a control cabinet, and the control system is electrically connected to the alarm device. First, the appropriate temperature is set in the control system. The temperature measuring element transmits the monitored temperature to the control system. If the system detects that the temperature has not reached the preset temperature, the control system controls the switch to open and starts to energize the graphene heating layer 3. When the temperature reaches the set temperature, the temperature measuring element transmits the monitored temperature to the control system. If the system detects that the temperature has reached the preset temperature, the control system controls the switch to close and stop energizing the graphene heating layer 3. The temperature measuring element transmits the monitored temperature to the control system. If the temperature is too high or too low for a long time and exceeds a certain limit, the control system will control the alarm device to send an alarm signal, which can effectively verify whether the monitoring device is operating normally and effectively prevent the occurrence of safety accidents.
[0030] Another embodiment, such as Figure 1 、 Figure 5 As shown, the first protective layer 1 is a polymer flexible material with a thickness of ≥1mm, such as polystyrene, silicon tetrachloride, high temperature resistance ≥300℃, insulation resistance of 0.5MΩ / kV~1MΩ / kV, pressure ≥85kg / cm 2 The second protective layer 5 is a flexible thermal insulation material, such as hollow silicon, tetrafluoroethylene rubber film, using a polymer flexible high temperature resistant film with a thickness of ≥2mm, a thermal conductivity of ≤0.3 (w / m·k), and a pressure of ≥85kg / cm 2 Structural adhesive 13 is set on the edges of the first protective layer 1, the first insulating layer 2, the graphene heating layer 3, the second insulating layer 4, and the second protective layer 5. The bonding strength of the structural adhesive 13 is ≥0.8Mpa, and the structural adhesive 13 has insulation properties. The wires connected to the graphene heating layer 3 and the wires connected to the temperature measuring element pass through the structural adhesive 13 to connect to the control system.

The second protective layer 5 of the heating device 9 contacts the original hot pressing plate 12. The heating device 9 can be connected to the original hot pressing plate 12 in a simple manner, and there is no need to improve the original hot pressing plate 12 on the original hot press. The device is suitable for single-sided heating and is suitable for a hot press with two layers of hot pressing plates. The heating device 9 is suitable for the preparation process of veneered artificial boards, and melamine-impregnated film paper is pasted on multi-layer boards and blockboards through the above-mentioned hot press.

[0033] Another embodiment, such as Figure 2 、 Figure 4 As shown, the first protective layer 1 is an upper metal heat conducting plate, and the second protective layer 5 is a lower metal heat conducting plate. The thickness of the upper metal heat conducting plate and the lower metal heat conducting plate are both ≥15mm manganese steel or carbon steel; the upper metal heat conducting plate and the lower metal heat conducting plate are respectively provided with grooves 6 on the facing surfaces, and the first insulating layer 2, the graphene heating layer 3 and the second insulating layer 4 are provided in the grooves 6. A third insulating layer (not shown in the figure) is provided between the upper metal heat conducting plate, the lower metal heat conducting plate and the graphene heating layer 3, that is, the graphene heating layer 3 is covered by the first insulating layer 2, the third insulating layer 3 and the graphene heating layer 4. The second insulating layer 4 and the third insulating layer are surrounded by it. The insulating glue used in the third insulating layer is the same as that used in the first insulating layer. The wires connected to the graphene heating layer 3 and the wires connected to the temperature measuring element pass through the third insulating layer, the upper and lower metal heat conducting plates (through hole 8) to connect to the control system; a groove 6 with a depth of ≤8mm is milled at a distance of ≥20mm from the edges of the upper and lower metal heat conducting plates; a semi-through hole A8-1 and a semi-through hole B 8-2 are respectively provided on the side walls of the groove 6 of the upper and lower metal heat conducting plates, which together constitute a through hole 8. A total of two through holes 8 are provided, which are respectively provided at both ends of the heating device 9 (i.e., the two ends of the upper and lower metal heat conducting plates). The through holes are for the wires connected to the graphene heating layer 3 and the wires connected to the temperature measuring element to pass through; wire holes are drilled on the edges of the upper and lower metal heat conducting plates, the upper metal heat conducting plate is covered on the lower metal heat conducting plate, and then fixed with high-strength bolts.

[0035] When the upper and lower metal heat conducting plates are combined, they form a cavity structure. The cavity structure contains the first insulating layer 2, the second insulating layer 4, the graphene heating layer 3, and the third insulating layer. A through hole 8 connects to the cavity structure. The wires connected to the graphene heating layer 3 and the temperature measuring element pass through the third insulating layer and through hole 8 before connecting to the control system. Two through holes 8 can be provided, one at each end of the heating device 9, to facilitate wire passage.
[0036] When one through hole 8 is provided, the through hole 8 is provided only at one end of the heating device 9, and a half groove A 7-1 and a half groove B 7-1 are provided on the side walls of the groove 6 of the upper metal heat conducting plate and the lower metal heat conducting plate, respectively. Figure 3 As shown, they together constitute a preset wire groove 7, in which the graphene heating layer 3 connecting wires and the temperature measuring element connecting wires are set. The preset wire groove 7 is connected with the through hole 8, and the end of the wire away from the through hole 8 can go around the preset wire groove 7 and pass through the through hole 8, which can facilitate the connection of the control system and effectively avoid accidents.

The installation method is the same as the installation method of the original hot pressing plate 12. The top heating device 9 is fixedly connected to the frame 10. The two ends of the heating devices 9 at other positions are movably connected to the frame 10 of the hot press to ensure that the heating device 9 can move up and down. The bottom heating device 9 is connected to the lifting device 11 (such as a cylinder). The specific frame 10 is provided with a number of slots. The two ends of the heating device 9 are set in the slots. The two ends of each layer of heating device 9 move up and down in the slots. The heating device 9 relies on the lifting device 11 to rise. When the lifting device 11 is lowered, the heating device 9 relies on gravity to move down to the bottom position of the slot. Since the heating device 9 can heat on both sides, it is suitable for hot presses with multi-layer hot pressing plates and can be applied to the hot pressing molding process of artificial boards.

The thickness of the upper and lower metal heat conducting plates is 15 mm, the width is 1400 mm, and the length is 2600 mm. Carbon steel is used. A groove 6 with a depth of 5 is milled 20 mm away from the edges of the upper and lower metal heat conducting plates.
