Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of sponge production, in particular to a aging device for sponge production. Background Art
[0002] Sponge is a porous material with good water absorption and can be used for cleaning items. Commonly used sponges are made of wood cellulose fibers or foamed plastic polymers. After foaming, the sponge is usually cut into sponge strips of equal length. During the sponge production process, the water in the sponge needs to be evaporated. At this time, a sponge production aging device is required. However, the current aging device only has a heating device in the aging box to mature the sponge, resulting in the water remaining in the sponge not being able to evaporate well. As a result, the outer side of the sponge is matured while a certain amount of water remains inside, thereby reducing the quality of the sponge aging.
[0003] According to the search, the China Patent Network has published a "maturation device for sponge production" with patent number CN219686300U. By setting up a cylinder, the cylinder is used to drive the pressure plate to move downward, so that the pressure plate and the pad squeeze the sponge, so that the moisture inside the sponge is squeezed out and discharged smoothly, avoiding the ineffective evaporation of the moisture inside the sponge during maturation, which reduces the quality of sponge maturation by the sponge production maturation device. However, this device can only mature a single sponge strip at a single start. When the number of sponge strips to be processed is large, the maturation process takes a long time, and the processing efficiency needs to be further improved. Utility Model Content
[0004] Based on this, the purpose of the present invention is to provide a aging device for sponge production, so as to solve the technical problem that the aging efficiency of the existing aging device for sponge production needs to be further improved.

[0006] By adopting the above technical solution, the inner cylinder provides a special space for placing the sponge and maturing it. The evenly distributed through holes allow the heated airflow to enter the inner cylinder in an orderly manner, assisting in evenly maturing the sponge. The water squeezing mechanism can effectively remove excess water from the sponge, preventing excessive water from remaining inside the sponge, thereby improving the maturation quality and saving maturation time.
[0007] Furthermore, the water squeezing mechanism includes an electric push rod, a movable sleeve is provided at the output end of the electric push rod, a fixed shaft is longitudinally passed through the interior of the movable sleeve, the movable sleeve is rotatably connected to the water squeezing plate through a connecting rod, and a sliding rod is provided at the bottom of the water squeezing plate.
[0008] By adopting the above technical solution, only one electric push rod needs to be started to drive the movable sleeve to move up and down along the fixed axis. Then, with the assistance of the connecting rod and the restriction of the slide groove on the slide rod, multiple water squeezing plates simultaneously squeeze water from the sponge placed in the placement groove.
[0009] Furthermore, the output end of the electric push rod is fixedly connected to the movable sleeve, and the movable sleeve is slidably connected to the fixed shaft.
[0010] By adopting the above technical solution, when the electric push rod is started under the action of power, it can drive the movable sleeve fixedly connected to it to slide up and down along the fixed shaft.
[0011] Furthermore, a plurality of water squeezing plates are provided, and the plurality of water squeezing plates are distributed in a circular pattern, and the water squeezing plates are adapted to the placement grooves.
[0012] By adopting the above technical solution, multiple circumferentially distributed water squeezing plates can squeeze water from multiple sponge strips at the same time, thereby improving the water squeezing efficiency and thus increasing the overall production speed.
[0013] Furthermore, the top cover includes a first cover body, a connecting rod is provided at the bottom of the first cover body, and a second cover body is provided at the bottom of the connecting rod.
[0014] By adopting the above technical solution, when the first cover is pulled, the second cover is removed under the drive of the connecting rod, so that the staff can place the sponge to be matured in the placement groove in the inner tube.
[0015] Furthermore, the first cover is fixedly connected to the connecting rod, the connecting rod is fixedly connected to the second cover, the first cover is movably connected to the device body, and the second cover is overlapped with the inner cylinder.
[0016] By adopting the above technical solution, a pull ring is provided on the top of the first cover body. When the pull ring is pulled, the first cover body is pulled smoothly, driving the connecting rod fixedly connected to it to move upward, and then the second cover body fixedly connected to the connecting rod moves upward to open the top cover.
[0017] Furthermore, the second cover body is a hollow conical structure, and a sealing ring is provided at the connection between the first cover body and the device body.
[0018] By adopting the above technical solution, the second cover with a hollow conical structure can block the cold air flow blown out from the output end of the fan from directly acting on the inner cylinder, and guide and concentrate the flowing air flow, effectively directing the air flow blown out from the fan to the inner cylinder, which helps to distribute the hot air from the heating tube more evenly in the inner cylinder, thereby achieving more uniform and faster sponge maturation.
[0019] Furthermore, fans are provided on both sides of the device body, a heating tube is provided on the outside of the inner cylinder, and a drainage groove and a slide groove are provided at the bottom of the device body.
[0020] By adopting the above technical solution, the heating tube is used to heat the cold air flow blown out by the fan to a certain extent, so that the air flow entering the inner cylinder reaches a corresponding temperature, so that the heated air flow can mature the sponge strips in the placement groove.
[0021] In summary, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0022] 1. The utility model is provided with an electric push rod, a movable sleeve, a connecting rod and a water squeezing plate. Only one electric push rod needs to be started to drive the movable sleeve to move up and down along the fixed axis.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0029] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. The embodiments described below with reference to the drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain the present invention, and cannot be understood as limiting the present invention.
[0030] The following describes an embodiment of the present invention based on its overall structure.
[0031] Example 1:
[0032] Maturation equipment for sponge production, such as Figures 1-4 As shown, it includes a device body 1, an inner tube 2 is provided inside the device body 1, a placement groove 21 and a through hole 22 are provided on the inner tube 2, a water squeezing mechanism 4 is provided inside the inner tube 2, and a top cover 3 is provided on the top of the device body 1. The inner tube 2 provides a space specifically for placing sponges and maturation. The evenly opened through holes 22 allow the heated air flow to stably enter the inner tube 2, assisting in evenly maturing the sponge, and the water squeezing mechanism 4 can effectively remove excess water in the sponge, avoiding excessive water remaining inside the sponge, thereby improving the maturation quality and saving maturation time. The placement groove 21 is provided to facilitate the staff to place the sponge to be matured in the inner tube 2, keep the position of the sponge stable, and ensure that the sponge can be evenly processed during the squeezing and maturation process. The top cover 3 is provided on the top of the device body 1 to protect the internal parts, provide protection for the inner tube 2 and the parts inside it, prevent external pollutants from entering, and maintain the internal maturation environment stable.
[0033] See Figure 2 、 Figure 3 、 Figure 4The water squeezing mechanism 4 includes an electric push rod 41, and a movable sleeve 42 is provided at the output end of the electric push rod 41. A fixed shaft 43 is longitudinally passed through the interior of the movable sleeve 42. The movable sleeve 42 is rotatably connected to a water squeezing plate 45 through a connecting rod 44. A sliding rod 47 is provided at the bottom of the water squeezing plate 45. Only one electric push rod 41 needs to be started to drive the movable sleeve 42 to move up and down along the fixed shaft 43. Then, with the assistance of the connecting rod 44 and the restriction of the sliding rod 47 by the slide groove 46, multiple water squeezing plates 45 can squeeze water from the sponge placed in the placement groove 21 at the same time, and multiple sponge strips can be squeezed and matured at one time to avoid excessive water remaining in the interior of the sponge, affecting the maturation quality. In addition, the water squeezing process only requires one electric push rod 41, which will not significantly increase energy consumption while improving the maturation efficiency to a certain extent.
[0034] See Figure 2 、 Figure 3 、 Figure 4 The output end of the electric push rod 41 is fixedly connected to the movable sleeve 42, and the movable sleeve 42 is slidably connected to the fixed shaft 43. When the electric push rod 41 is started under the action of the power supply, it can drive the movable sleeve 42 fixedly connected thereto to slide up and down along the fixed shaft 43, and with the assistance of the connecting rod 44 and the limiting effect of the slide 46 on the slide rod 47, multiple water squeezing plates 45 are simultaneously and orderly extended into or smoothly pulled out of the placement groove 21, so as to cooperate with the squeezing and maturation operation of the sponge strip.
[0035] See Figure 4 There are multiple water squeezing plates 45, and the multiple water squeezing plates 45 are distributed in a circle. The water squeezing plates 45 are adapted to the placement groove 21. The multiple water squeezing plates 45 distributed in a circle can squeeze water from multiple sponge strips at the same time, thereby improving the efficiency of squeezing water and thus improving the overall production speed. At the same time, the high adaptability of the water squeezing plates 45 to the placement groove 21 ensures that the water squeezing plates 45 are in close contact with the sponge placed in the placement groove, thereby achieving efficient water squeezing, making the water squeezing process more uniform and thorough, avoiding excessive water residue inside the sponge, and thus optimizing the maturation quality.
[0036] Example 2:
[0037] See Figure 1 、 Figure 2 、 Figure 3 、 Figure 4The top cover 3 includes a first cover body 31, a connecting rod 33 is provided at the bottom of the first cover body 31, and a second cover body 32 is provided at the bottom of the connecting rod 33. When the first cover body 31 is pulled, the second cover body 32 is removed under the drive of the connecting rod 33, so that the staff can place the sponge to be matured in the placement groove 21 in the inner tube 2. Moreover, after closing the entire top cover 3 and starting the fan 5, the air outlet of the fan 5 is facing the conical second cover body 32. The conical second cover body 32 is used to guide the cold air flow blown out by the fan 5, so that it passes through the heating area of the heating tube 6 to be heated to a certain extent, and then enters the inner tube 2 through the evenly arranged through holes 22 to evenly mature the sponge in the placement groove 21.
[0038] See Figure 1 、 Figure 2 、 Figure 3 、 Figure 4 The first cover 31 is fixedly connected to the connecting rod 33, the connecting rod 33 is fixedly connected to the second cover 32, the first cover 31 is movably connected to the device body 1, and the second cover 32 is overlapped with the inner tube 2. A pull ring is provided on the top of the first cover 31. When the pull ring is pulled, the first cover 31 is pulled smoothly, driving the connecting rod 33 fixedly connected to it to move upward, and then the second cover 32 fixedly connected to the connecting rod 33 moves upward, so as to open the top cover 3, making it convenient for the staff to place the sponge strip to be matured in the placement groove 21 in the inner tube 2, or to take out the matured sponge strip from the placement groove 21 of the inner tube 2 after the sponge strip is matured.
[0039] See Figure 1 、 Figure 2 、 Figure 3 、 Figure 4 The second cover 32 has a hollow conical structure, and a sealing ring is provided at the connection between the first cover 31 and the device body 1. The hollow conical structure of the second cover 32 can block the cold air flow blown out from the output end of the fan 5 from directly acting on the inner cylinder 2, and guide and concentrate the flowing air flow, effectively guiding the air flow blown out from the fan to the inner cylinder 2, which helps to distribute the hot air from the heating tube 6 more evenly in the inner cylinder 2, thereby achieving more uniform and faster sponge maturation. At the same time, the sealing ring can ensure the airtightness between the first cover 31 and the device body 1. The sealing ring provides a barrier to prevent gas or liquid leakage. Through effective sealing, a stable environment inside the maturation device is maintained, thereby ensuring the quality and efficiency of sponge maturation.
[0040] See Figure 1 、 Figure 2 、 Figure 3 、 Figure 4, fans 5 are provided on both sides of the device body 1, and a heating tube 6 is provided on the outside of the inner tube 2. A drainage groove 11 and a slide groove 46 are provided at the bottom of the device body 1. The heating tube 6 is used to heat the cold air flow blown out by the fan 5 to a certain extent, so that the air flow entering the inner tube 2 reaches the corresponding temperature, so that the heated air flow can mature the sponge strips in the placement groove 21. The setting of the drainage groove 11 can effectively discharge excess moisture in the squeezed sponge strips and help maintain a dry environment for the maturation process. At the same time, timely moisture discharge can prevent moisture from accumulating inside the device, thereby reducing potential damage to the equipment.
[0041] The implementation principle of the present invention is as follows: first, the pull ring on the first cover body 31 is pulled to separate the first cover body 31 from the device body 1, and at the same time, the second cover body 32 is separated from the top of the inner tube 2 under the drive of the connecting rod 33; secondly, the sponge to be matured is placed in the placement groove 21, and the top cover 3 is closed again; then, the power is turned on, and the electric push rod 41 pulls the movable sleeve 42 downward along the fixed axis 43 under the action of the power supply, and at the same time pulls all the water squeezing plates 45 to move. The water squeezing plates 45 are restricted by the slide groove 46 on the slide rod 47 and extend into the placement groove 21 of the inner tube 2 in an orderly manner, and the sponge strips placed in all the placement grooves 21 are squeezed at the same time. The squeezed water enters the drainage groove 11 through the through hole 22 and is discharged from the outside of the device body 1; once again, the movable sleeve 42 is pushed upward along the fixed axis 43 by the electric push rod 41 The water squeezing plates 45 are moved and, driven by the connecting rod 44, all the water squeezing plates 45 are displaced at the same time. Under the restriction of the slide groove 46 on the slide rod 47, the water squeezing plates 45 are continuously moved out of the placement groove 21 of the inner tube 2, and no longer squeeze the sponge strip placed in the placement groove 21; after that, the heating pipe 6 and the fan 5 are started, the heating pipe 6 heats the inside of the device body 1, and the cold air blown out is guided by the second cover body 32 and enters the heating area inside the device body 1 for heating. The heated air enters the inner tube 2 through the evenly opened through holes 22, and then evenly matures the sponge strip and evaporates the moisture inside it; finally, when the sponge strip is matured, the handle on the first cover body 31 is pulled again, so that the first cover body 31 is separated from the device body 1, and under the drive of the connecting rod 33, the second cover body 32 is separated from the top of the inner tube 2, and the top cover 3 is smoothly opened to take out the matured sponge strip.
[0042] Parts not involved in the present invention are the same as those in the prior art or can be implemented by using the prior art, and will not be described in detail here.
[0043] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, these specific embodiments are merely explanations of the present invention and are not limitations on the present invention. The specific features, structures, materials, or characteristics described may be combined in a suitable manner in any one or more embodiments or examples.
