Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of carbon fiber prepreg production, in particular to a cooling treatment device for carbon fiber prepreg production. Background Art

[0002] During the production process, carbon fiber prepregs undergo coating, lamination, and other processes, and their surface temperature is high. Cooling treatment is required to reduce this temperature and ensure the quality of the prepregs. Cooling also helps to shape the prepregs, making them more stable during subsequent processing.

[0003] After coating and compounding, the carbon fiber prepreg enters the cooling water tank for cooling. The cooling water in the cooling water tank circulates to take away the heat on the surface of the prepreg, thereby achieving the purpose of cooling. After the carbon fiber prepreg is sent into the cooling water tank, one end of the carbon fiber prepreg needs to be drawn out of the cooling water tank.

[0004] Existing cooling treatment devices usually only have simple cooling functions and lack the necessary guidance and conveying mechanisms. Operators need to manually extract the carbon fiber prepreg from the cooling water tank, but the cooling water tank generally adopts a closed structure, which not only increases the difficulty of operation but also may cause safety hazards during operation.

[0026] The present invention will be further described below with reference to specific embodiments. It should be understood that these embodiments are only used to illustrate the present invention and are not used to limit the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0027] The following describes the embodiments of the present invention through specific examples. Those skilled in the art will readily understand the other advantages and benefits of the present invention from the disclosure herein. The present invention may also be implemented or applied through various other specific embodiments, and the details in this specification may be modified or altered based on different perspectives and applications without departing from the spirit of the present invention.

[0028] Reference Figures 1-6 A cooling treatment device for the production of carbon fiber prepregs comprises: a cooling box 1, which serves as the main body of the entire cooling treatment device and provides a closed and controllable environment for cooling the carbon fiber prepregs; a guide seat 2, which is installed in the cooling box 1 and is configured to move along a preset path in the cooling box 1. The guide seat 2 moves along the preset path to ensure that the carbon fiber prepregs can pass through the cooling area smoothly and orderly, which helps to avoid bending, twisting or damage of the prepregs during the cooling process and ensures the integrity of the product; a feed hole 201 is opened on the guide seat 2, and the width of the feed hole 201 gradually decreases from top to bottom, which helps to guide the carbon fiber prepregs gradually into the cooling area. The two clamping plates 203 are respectively mounted on the two side walls of the feed hole 201 and are configured to approach or move away from each other at the same time; the two feeding plates 204 are respectively mounted on the bottom of the two clamping plates 203. The two clamping plates 203 can approach or move away from each other at the same time to clamp and release the carbon fiber prepreg, thereby ensuring that the prepreg maintains a stable position during movement in the cooling box 1 and preventing it from deflecting or falling off; the feeding plate 204 helps to smoothly feed the prepreg into the cooling area while the clamping plates 203 clamp the prepreg. The feeding plate 204 can also enter the discharge port 102 to send the carbon fiber prepreg out of the cooling box 1.

[0029] The guide seat 2 includes: two fixed grooves 202, which are respectively opened on the two side walls of the feed hole 201, and two clamping plates 203 are respectively connected to the two fixed grooves 202; two first power sources 205 are respectively installed in the two fixed grooves 202, and the power shafts of the two first power sources 205 are respectively connected to the two clamping plates 203.

[0030] The cooling box 1 includes: a feed port 101, which is opened on the cooling box 1; a discharge port 102, which is opened on the cooling box 1; a movable groove 103, which is opened on the inner wall of the cooling box 1. The feed port 101 and the discharge port 102 are respectively opened on the cooling box 1, and are used for the entry and exit of carbon fiber prepregs, ensuring that the prepregs can smoothly enter and leave the cooling area; a movable seat 3, which is connected in the movable groove 103, and one end of the guide seat 2 is connected to the movable seat 3, and the movable seat 3 is configured to move along the inner wall of the movable groove 103.

[0031] The movable seat 3 includes: a second power source 301, which is installed in the movable seat 3; a gear 302, which is installed on the power shaft of the second power source 301. A rack 104 is connected to the inner wall of the movable groove 103, and the rack 104 is engaged with the gear 302. The second power source 301 adopts a servo motor or a stepping motor. In the process of the second power source 301 driving the gear 302 to rotate, the gear 302 can be moved on the rack 104, thereby driving the movable seat 3 to move in the movable groove 103, so that the movable seat 3 can move stably and accurately along the movable groove 103, ensuring the stability and accuracy of the guide seat 2 and the carbon fiber prepreg during the cooling process.

[0032] The lengths of the clamping plate 203 and the feeding plate 204 are the same as the lengths of the feed port 101 and the discharge port 102 .

[0033] During use, the operator feeds one end of the carbon fiber prepreg into the feed port 101 and passes it through the feed hole 201. After the prepreg enters the feed hole 201, the two first power sources 205 are started to drive the two clamping plates 203 to approach at the same time to clamp the prepreg. After the clamping plates 203 clamp the prepreg, the feeding plate 204 starts to work and smoothly feeds the prepreg into the cooling area. The second power source 301 is started to drive the gear 302 to move on the rack 104, thereby driving the moving seat 3 to move along the preset path in the moving groove 103. The movement of the moving seat 3 drives the guide seat 2 and the carbon fiber prepreg thereon to move together, so that the prepreg can pass through the cooling area smoothly and orderly. In the cooling area, the prepreg The prepreg is cooled in a closed and controllable environment provided by the cooling box 1 to achieve the desired cooling effect. When the carbon fiber prepreg has completely passed through the cooling area, the two first power sources 205 are started again to drive the two clamping plates 203 away at the same time, releasing the prepreg. The feed plate 204 continues to work to feed the cooled prepreg into the discharge port 102 and out of the cooling box 1. The operator receives the cooled carbon fiber prepreg outside the cooling box 1 and performs subsequent processing or storage. When a batch of carbon fiber prepregs has completed the cooling process, the first power source 205 and the second power source 301 are turned off, and the interior of the cooling box 1 is cleaned and maintained as necessary to ensure that the next batch of prepregs can be cooled smoothly.

[0034] In summary, compared with the existing technology, it has the following beneficial effects:

[0035] The cooling treatment device integrates a guiding and conveying mechanism, which can automatically guide the carbon fiber prepreg from the inlet to the outlet of the cooling water tank and smoothly extract it. The operator does not need to directly contact the enclosed structure inside the cooling water tank, avoiding safety hazards caused by improper operation or equipment failure.

[0036] By introducing a guiding and conveying mechanism, this solution can ensure the smooth and orderly movement of the carbon fiber prepreg in the cooling water tank, avoiding problems such as bending, twisting or damage of the prepreg caused by improper manual operation, and making the processing speed of the carbon fiber prepreg during the cooling process faster and more stable.
