Abstract

According to the straw wetting and softening device for efficient straw tableware production, straw to be softened can be placed on the conveying belt of the conveyor and conveyed into the softening bin through the conveying belt. The softened straws can be fumigated by steam in the softening bin so as to realize steam softening treatment on the straws, and the softened straws can enter the cooling tank through the discharge port so as to be subjected to dual treatment of soaking softening and cooling under the action of condensate water. Meanwhile, steam generated after the straw is softened can be condensed into condensate water to be used by the cooling pond, and the condensate water in the cooling pond can enter the steam generator to be recycled. By the adoption of the structural design, straw can be subjected to double softening treatment including steam fumigation and condensate water soaking, and therefore the softening degree and efficiency of the straw are greatly improved. Meanwhile, water resources of the whole softening device can be recycled, so that waste of the water resources is avoided.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the field of straw processing technology, and more specifically, to a straw wetting and softening device for producing high-efficiency straw tableware. Background Art

[0002] Wheat straw is an environmentally friendly raw material for plant fiber production. Its high fiber content is inexhaustible, making it widely used in the production of paper products and building materials. Before straw can be processed into tableware, it must first be softened. A common method for softening straw is soaking, which involves pre-treating the straw by immersing it in water or an acidic or alkaline solution.

[0003] While the above method is simple to operate, low-cost, and can quickly remove the hardness of the straw surface, reducing the difficulty of subsequent processing, the soaking process, however, requires a large amount of water and the cost of neutralizing the wastewater is high, making it difficult to process large amounts of straw.

[0026] 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. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0027] like Figure 1-Figure 3 As shown, the straw moistening and softening device for producing efficient straw tableware provided in the embodiment of the present application includes a workbench 100, a softening bin 300, a conveyor 600, and a cooling pool 700, wherein the workbench 100 is a supporting structure of the softening device, and the workbench 100 is set on the ground through a floor stand 200. The softening bin 300 is set on the table top of the workbench 100, and the softening bin 300 is a place for preliminary softening of straw. The two ends of the softening bin 300 are respectively provided with a feeding port 310 and a discharging port 320. The top of the softening bin 300 is connected to the steam generator through a steam pipe 400, and the bottom of the softening bin 300 is provided with a condensing pipe 500.

[0028] The conveyor 600 is a device arranged on the workbench 100 for conveying straw. A part of the conveyor 600 enters the softening bin 300 through the feeding port 310, and the discharge end of the conveyor 600 coincides with the discharge port 320 of the softening bin 300. That is to say, after the straw transported by the conveyor 600 enters the softening bin 300 through the feeding port 310, it can be transported out from the discharge port 320.

[0029] The cooling pool 700 is disposed above the workbench 100 and is located next to the softening bin 300. Specifically, the cooling pool 700 is located below the discharge port 320 of the softening bin 300, allowing straw transported by the conveyor 600 to fall from the discharge port 320 into the cooling pool 700. The cooling pool 700 is connected to the condenser pipe 500, and the condensed water formed after the steam in the softening bin 300 condenses can enter the cooling pool 700 through the condenser pipe 500. In addition, the cooling pool 700 is also connected to the steam generator via the return pipe 710. The return pipe 710 is provided with a pump body 800, so that the condensed water in the cooling pool 700 can also be used as a raw material for preparing steam.

[0030] In the straw moistening and softening device for producing efficient straw tableware provided in the embodiment of the present application, the straw to be softened can be placed on the conveyor belt of the conveyor 600, and the conveyor belt is used to transport it to the softening bin 300. The softened straw can be fumigated with steam in the softening bin 300 to achieve steam softening treatment of the straw. The softened straw will then enter the cooling pool 700 through the discharge port 320 to undergo a dual treatment of soaking, softening and cooling under the action of condensed water. At the same time, the steam after the straw is softened can also be condensed into condensed water and used by the cooling pool 700, and the condensed water in the cooling pool 700 can also enter the steam generator for recycling. With the above structural design, the straw can be subjected to a dual softening treatment of steam fumigation and condensed water soaking, thereby greatly improving the softening degree and efficiency of the straw. At the same time, the water resources of the entire softening device can be recycled to avoid the waste of water resources.

[0031] In some embodiments, the softening chamber 300 includes a softening chamber and a condensing chamber. The softening chamber is located above the condensing chamber, and the conveyor 600 is located within the softening chamber. The conveyor 600 transports the straw into the softening chamber and fumigates the straw with steam to achieve preliminary softening of the straw. The steam condenses into condensed water, which falls into the condensing chamber. The condensing chamber then transports the condensed water to the cooling pool 700 through the condensing pipe 500.

[0032] In some embodiments, a removable L-shaped plate 900 is provided within the cooling pool 700. The L-shaped plate 900 is positioned within the cooling pool. The width of the L-shaped plate 900 is equal to the width of the cooling pool 700, and the length of the L-shaped plate 900 is less than the length of the cooling pool 700. This allows the L-shaped plate 900 and the end surface of the cooling pool 700 near the discharge port 320 to form an inlet. Straw passing through the discharge port 320 can enter the cooling pool 700 through the inlet. The straw is immersed in water under the action of the L-shaped plate 900, which can improve the softening efficiency of the straw.

[0033] Preferably, the L-shaped plate 900 is provided with strip-shaped holes 920 along its thickness, which are connected to the cooling pool 700. This allows the water above the L-shaped plate 900 to circulate and communicate with the water in the cooling pool 700. At the same time, a lap plate 910 can be provided at the vertical section of the L-shaped plate 900. The lap plate 910 can be used to overlap the L-shaped plate 900 at the edge of the cooling pool 700, making it easier to remove and disassemble the L-shaped plate 900.
