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.

[0019] See also Figures 1 to 4 In an embodiment of the utility model, a headbox for papermaking includes a headbox 1, one end of the headbox 1 is installed with an end plate 2, one end of the headbox 1 is connected to an upper lip plate 4 for sliding up and down, the upper lip plate 4 is connected to the inner sides of the two end plates 2 for sliding up and down, one end of the headbox 1 is fixedly connected to a lower lip plate 3, the lower lip plate 3 is located between the two end plates 2, and the lower lip plate 3 is located below the upper lip plate 4, and a channel for slurry to flow out is provided between the lower lip plate 3 and the upper lip plate 4; a connecting mechanism for driving the upper lip plate 4 to slide up and down is installed at the top of the headbox 1, the connecting mechanism includes a rotating component and an axial moving component, and the axial moving component is connected to the output end of the rotating component.

[0020] In this embodiment, when adjusting the outflow channel according to the thickness of the paper, the rotating assembly is first started, and the rotating assembly drives the axial moving assembly to move and slide axially. The sliding axial sliding assembly drives the upper lip plate 4 to adjust in the up and down directions. At this time, the thickness of the flow channel between the upper lip plate 4 and the lower lip plate 3 changes, thereby adjusting the thickness of the produced paper.

[0021] Please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 The rotating assembly includes two groups of fixed ears 10 fixedly connected to the top of the headbox 1, a screw 11 is rotatably installed between the two groups of fixed ears 10, one end of the screw 11 is connected to a synchronous wheel 13, and adjacent synchronous wheels 13 are connected by a synchronous belt 14. A forward and reverse motor 15 is installed on the top of the headbox 1, and the output shaft of the forward and reverse motor 15 is connected to the center of the end face of a group of synchronous wheels 13.

[0022] In this embodiment, by starting the forward and reverse motor 15, the forward and reverse motor 15 drives the synchronous wheel 13 connected thereto to rotate, and the synchronous wheel 13 drives other synchronous wheels 13 to rotate synchronously and in the same direction through the synchronous belt 14.

[0023] Please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3The axial moving assembly includes a synchronous plate 12 threadedly connected to the outer wall of a plurality of screws 11, one end of the synchronous plate 12 is fixedly connected to a plurality of moving plates 7, the bottom end of the moving plate 7 is fixedly connected to a slider 6, and the top of the headbox 1 is fixedly connected to a slide rail 5 for sliding the slider 6. The axial moving assembly also includes a guide groove 8 opened at one end of the moving plate 7 and extending to the other end of the moving plate 7.

[0024] In this embodiment, multiple sets of synchronous wheels 13 rotate synchronously, and the synchronous wheels 13 respectively drive the screws 11 connected thereto to rotate synchronously. At this time, the synchronous plate 12 moves axially along the outer wall of the screw 11 under its internal thread. The axially moving synchronous plate 12 synchronously pushes multiple movable plates 7 to move synchronously, and the guide groove 8 in the movable plate 7 moves accordingly. Then, the sliding shaft is squeezed by the guide groove 8, and the sliding shaft moves in the up and down direction.

[0026] Please refer to Figure 1 A sealing ring is provided at the joint position of the headbox 1, the end plate 2 and the slide rail 5. The sealing ring is used to prevent the slurry from leaking from the contact position of the headbox 1, the end plate 2 and the slide rail 5.

[0027] In this embodiment, this design can prevent slurry from leaking from the contact position between the headbox 1, the end plate 2 and the slide rail 5.

[0028] Please refer to Figure 4 The vertical section of the slider 6 is a "convex" structure, and ball grooves 16 are opened in the protruding parts of the two wings of the slider 6. The inner wall of the ball groove 16 is movably connected with a ball 17, and the outer periphery of the ball 17 contacts the inner wall of the slide rail 5.

[0029] In this embodiment: the movable plate 7 disperses part of the gravity of the upper lip plate 4 to the slider 6, the slider 6 applies an extrusion force to the bottom end of the inner wall of the slide rail 5, and the ball 17 can effectively avoid the phenomenon of increased wear of the slider 6 during movement due to excessive resistance.

Any technician familiar with the technical field within the technical scope disclosed by the present invention can make equivalent replacements or changes based on the technical solution and utility model concept of the present invention, which should be covered by the protection scope of the present invention.
