Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of preparation of novel fibers and composite materials, and particularly relates to a needle-punching feeding mechanism for aerogel felt. Background Art

[0002] At present, the production line of aerogel felt is usually composed of pretreatment equipment, feeding equipment, needle rolling equipment, heat setting equipment and edge trimming and rolling equipment. Among them, the needle rolling equipment is the core part of the production line, including pre-needling machine, positive needle rolling machine and reverse needle rolling machine, etc. The fibers are interwoven with each other through the needle punching action to form felt.

[0003] However, before the fiber web enters the needling machine, multiple layers of mesh need to be stacked and then gradually flattened and fed into the needling mechanism, and the meshes fed in should still remain in an up-and-down stacking state. Therefore, how to achieve stacked feeding is very critical, because once the number of layers of mesh is disordered, it not only increases the needle breakage rate of needle punching, but also makes the thickness of the produced aerogel felt uneven. Therefore, most manufacturers use the method of inclined stacking to carry out horizontal push feeding. However, based on the requirements for the number of mesh layers and the change in the height of the mesh required for use, if the transmission path is changed, it is difficult to meet the use needs by simply changing the inclination angle of the mesh layer, which brings great inconvenience to the actual feeding. Utility Model Content

[0004] The technical problem to be solved by the utility model is to overcome the deficiencies of the prior art and provide an improved aerogel felt needle-punching feeding mechanism.

[0005] In order to solve the above technical problems, the present invention adopts the following technical solutions:

[0006] A needle-punch feeding mechanism for aerogel felt comprises an output conveyor belt group and a receiving conveyor belt group, wherein the receiving conveyor belt group comprises an upper receiving belt and a lower receiving belt moving in opposite directions, wherein a receiving channel is formed between the upper receiving belt and the lower receiving belt, and the receiving channel gradually becomes smaller along the feeding direction;

[0007] The output conveyor belt group includes a first conveyor belt formed with a horizontal conveyor surface and a downward inclined conveyor surface, and a second conveyor belt located at the inclined end of the first conveyor belt and capable of adjusting the inclination angle, wherein the second conveyor belt connects the first conveyor belt and the lower connecting belt, and the inclined conveyor surface of the first conveyor belt, the conveyor surface of the second conveyor belt, and the conveyor surface of the lower connecting belt form a conveyor feeding surface with the same direction and an open upward arc-shaped conveyor path. Multiple layers of fiber webs are stacked on the feeding surface in sequence while being tilted forward along the front and rear feeding directions, so that the fiber webs maintain the same number of layers entering the connecting channel.

[0008] Preferably, the input end and the output end of the first conveyor belt are respectively adjustable up and down. Based on the height adjustment, further assistance is provided to meet the requirements of laying nets of different heights and layers.

[0009] Furthermore, two pull rods are provided at the two shaft ends, one at the input and the other at the output. A power unit is also provided above the first conveyor belt to drive the pull rods up and down. There are many ways to drive the pull rods up and down. In some embodiments, the power unit is a winch, wherein the pulling end of the winch is fixedly connected to the upper end of the pull rods. This winch is a conventional wire winch.

[0010] According to a specific embodiment and preferred aspect of the present invention, the first conveyor belt, the upper connecting belt, and the lower connecting belt are all endless crawlers; the second conveyor belt is an endless crawler or an endless belt. Transmission based on the endless crawler not only provides relative resistance to facilitate the stacking of the laying layer, but also prevents slippage during the transmission process. Of course, a partial endless belt can also be used for transmission to increase transmission efficiency.

[0011] Preferably, the endless track comprises an endless track body and anti-skid strips formed on the endless track body.

[0012] According to another embodiment of the present invention, the upper and lower connecting belts have their outlet ends aligned vertically; in orthographic projection of their width, the lower connecting belt's inlet end is positioned in front of the upper connecting belt's inlet end. The lower connecting belt performs the splicing first, allowing any web, regardless of its thickness, to enter the splicing channel.

[0013] Preferably, the receiving input ends of the upper receiving belt and the lower receiving belt are respectively rotated and adjusted around the receiving output ends to change the size of the receiving channel opening to meet the needs of receiving and extruding webs of different thicknesses.

[0014] Furthermore, the second conveyor belt itself can be raised and lowered and can be rotated and adjusted around the shaft end close to the first conveyor belt. The first conveyor belt and the lower guide belt are connected based on the angle and height adjustment of the second conveyor belt.

[0015] In addition, a second conveyor belt is mounted on a carrier, which is mounted on a base for rotation and elevation from its front end, and is raised and lowered from its rear end around its front end. A rotating arm is provided at the rear end of the carrier, and a connecting arm and a telescopic rod that moves in a front-to-back direction are provided on the base. The rotating arm and the connecting arm are rotatably connected from their ends, and the top of the telescopic rod is fixed to the rotational connection point between the rotating arm and the connecting arm. During the telescopic movement of the telescopic rod, the rotating arm and the connecting arm relatively raise or lower the rear end of the carrier. First, because the paving layer appears thick but is very light, the rotation and elevation employed do not require excessive pressure. Second, the resulting angles and heights are small adjustments, providing strong controllability. Finally, the position of the telescopic rod allows the carrier and base to be relatively limited, and the combination of elevation and rotation employed at the front end is also conveniently implemented (the bottom portion is the telescopic rod, and the top portion is a rotating seat rotatably mounted on the top of the telescopic rod, wherein the rotating seat is fixed to the front end of the carrier).

[0016] Due to the implementation of the above technical solution, the utility model has the following advantages compared with the prior art:

[0017] In the existing laying net feeding, most manufacturers use the inclined stacking laying net method for horizontal push feeding. However, based on the requirements of the number of laying net layers and the change of the laying net height, if the transmission path is changed, it is difficult to meet the use needs by simply changing the inclination angle of the net layer, which brings great inconvenience and shortcomings to the actual feeding. The needle-punched feeding mechanism of the aerogel felt of the utility model is designed as a whole, which cleverly solves the shortcomings and defects of the existing technology. After adopting the feeding mechanism, based on the inclined transmission surface of the first conveyor belt, the transmission surface of the second conveyor belt, and the transmission of the lower guide belt, the feeding mechanism is realized. The three surfaces form a transmission feeding surface with the same direction and an opening facing upward as the transmission path. The multiple layers of fiber mesh are stacked on the feeding surface in sequence while being tilted forward along the front and rear feeding directions, so that the fiber mesh maintains the same number of layers entering the receiving channel. Therefore, the utility model is based on the change and lengthening of the transmission path formed by the opening facing upward as well as the unchanged spacing, thereby increasing the feeding needs of laying layers with different thicknesses and different numbers of layers. At the same time, the transition between the horizontal transmission surface and the downward inclined transmission surface is adopted to increase the adjustment range of the inclined stacking angle, so as to greatly improve the practicability of feeding the laying layer.

[0027] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the needle-punch feeding mechanism of the aerogel felt of this embodiment includes an output conveyor belt group 1 and a receiving conveyor belt group 2, the output conveyor belt group 1 includes a first conveyor belt 11 and a second conveyor belt 12; the receiving conveyor belt group 2 includes an upper receiving belt 21 and a lower receiving belt 22 moving in opposite directions, wherein a receiving channel t is formed between the upper receiving belt 20 and the lower receiving belt 21, and the receiving channel t gradually becomes smaller along the feeding direction.

[0028] Specifically, the first conveyor belt 11 has a horizontal conveyor surface 11 a and a downward inclined conveyor surface 11 b , and the second conveyor belt 12 connects and connects the inclined conveyor surface 11 b with the lower connecting belt 22 .

[0029] In some specific embodiments, the input end 11c and the output end 11d of the first conveyor belt 11 are respectively adjusted up and down. Based on the height adjustment, further assistance is provided to meet the requirements of laying nets of different heights and layers. Furthermore, two pull rods g are respectively provided at the two axial ends of the input end 11c and the output end 11d, and a power device q is also provided above the first conveyor belt 11 to drive the pull rod g to move up and down. There are many ways to drive the pull rod g to rise and fall. In some specific embodiments, the power device q is a winch, wherein the traction end of the winch q is fixedly connected to the upper end of the pull rod g. The winch is a conventional wire winch.

[0030] The second conveyor belt 12 is located at the inclined end of the first conveyor belt 11 and can adjust the inclination angle and its own height. Specifically, the second conveyor belt 12 can be raised and lowered and can be rotated and adjusted around the axial end close to the first conveyor belt 11, that is, the first conveyor belt and the lower connecting belt are connected based on the angle and height adjustment of the second conveyor belt. In some specific embodiments, the second conveyor belt 12 is installed on the carrier 3, and the carrier 3 is installed on the base 4 so as to rotate and rise and fall from the front end. The carrier 3 is rotated and raised on the base 4 around the front end from the rear end, wherein a rotating arm 5 is provided at the rear end of the carrier 3, and a connecting arm 6 and a telescopic rod 7 that moves in the front-to-back direction are provided on the base 4, wherein the rotating arm 5 and the connecting arm 6 are rotatably connected from the end, and the top of the telescopic rod 7 is fixed to the rotation connection point of the rotating arm 5 and the connecting arm 6, and when the telescopic rod 7 is telescopic, the rotating arm 5 and the connecting arm 6 relatively lift or lower the rear end of the carrier 3. First, since the mesh layer looks thick but is very light, the rotation and lifting used do not need to bear excessive pressure; second, the angles and heights formed are adjusted in small amounts and are highly controllable; finally, the position of the telescopic rod can be used to relatively limit the carrier and the base, and the combination of lifting and rotation used at the front end is also easy to implement (the bottom of the front end of the carrier 3 is also the telescopic rod s, and the top is a rotating seat z rotatably installed on the top of the telescopic rod s, where the rotating seat z is fixed to the front end of the carrier 3).

[0031] The inclined transmission surface 11b of the first conveyor belt 11, the transmission surface 12b of the second conveyor belt 12, and the transmission surface 22b of the lower connecting belt 22 form a transmission feeding surface w with the same direction and an open upward arc transmission path. The multiple layers of fiber mesh p (laying layer) are stacked on the feeding surface in sequence while being tilted forward along the front and rear feeding direction, so that the fiber mesh maintains the same number of layers entering the connecting channel t. The first conveyor belt 11, the upper connecting belt 21, and the lower connecting belt 22 are all circular belts; the second conveyor belt 12 is an circular belt or an endless belt. Transmission based on the circular belt not only provides relative resistance and is conducive to the stacking of the laying layer, but also avoids slipping during the transmission process. Of course, partial circular belts can also be used for transmission to increase transmission efficiency. The circular belt includes an annular belt body m1 and an anti-slip strip m2 formed on the annular belt body m1.

[0032] The upper and lower connecting belts 21 and 22 have their connecting output ends aligned vertically; in the orthographic projection of their own width, the connecting input end of the lower connecting belt 22 is located in front of the connecting input end of the upper connecting belt 21. The lower connecting belt is connected first, so that no matter how thick the paving net is, it can enter the connecting channel.

[0033] Furthermore, the receiving input ends of the upper and lower connecting belts 21 and 22 are respectively rotated and adjusted around their respective output ends to vary the opening size of the receiving channel t, thereby satisfying the requirements for the extrusion of webs of varying thicknesses. Specifically, an arcuate groove w1 is provided on the corresponding frame J, and sliding seats w2 are provided at the receiving input ends of the upper and lower connecting belts 21 and 22, respectively. Based on the movement of the sliding seats w2 within the arcuate groove w1, the two connecting belts are then locked relative to each other using external connectors.

[0034] In summary, after adopting the feeding mechanism, based on the inclined transmission surface of the first conveyor belt, the transmission surface of the second conveyor belt, and the transmission surface of the lower receiving belt, the three form a transmission feeding surface with the same direction and the transmission path being an arc-shaped transmission feeding surface with an opening facing upward, and the multiple layers of fiber mesh are stacked on the feeding surface in sequence while being tilted forward along the front and rear feeding directions, so that the fiber mesh maintains the same number of layers entering the receiving channel. Therefore, the first aspect of the present invention is based on the change and lengthening of the transmission path formed by the arc-shaped transmission feeding surface with an opening facing upward with the spacing unchanged, thereby increasing the feeding needs of the laying layers of different thicknesses and different numbers of layers, and at the same time, the transition between the horizontal transmission surface and the downward inclined transmission surface is further changed. The tilted stacking angle increases the practicality of feeding the laying layer; the second aspect is based on the height adjustment to provide further assistance to meet the needs of laying nets at different heights and layers; the third aspect is based on the lifting and lowering of the pull rod to adjust the height output, further increasing the adjustment range of the tilt angle. At the same time, the power device is a winch, and the price is raised based on the traction of the steel wire, which is easy to operate and low in cost; the fourth aspect is based on the transmission of the ring crawler, which not only provides relative resistance and is conducive to the stacking of the laying layer, but also avoids slipping during the transmission process. Of course, some ring belts can also be used for transmission to increase transmission efficiency; the fifth aspect is to connect with the lower guide belt first, so that no matter how thick the net is, The laying nets can enter the receiving channel, and the receiving input ends of the upper and lower receiving belts are respectively rotated and adjusted around the receiving output ends to change the size of the receiving channel opening to meet the needs of the different thickness laying nets receiving and extruding; the sixth aspect is based on the angle and height adjustment of the second conveyor belt to connect the first conveyor belt and the lower receiving belt. Specifically, the second conveyor belt is installed on the carrier, and the carrier is installed on the base for rotating and lifting up and down from the front end, and the carrier is rotated and lifted on the base around the front end from the rear end, wherein a rotating arm is provided at the rear end of the carrier, and a connecting arm and a telescopic rod moving along the front and rear directions are provided on the base, wherein the rotating arm and the connecting arm are connected from the end The top of the telescopic rod is fixed to the rotating connection point of the rotating arm and the connecting arm, and during the telescopic movement of the telescopic rod, the rotating arm and the connecting arm relatively lift or lower the rear end of the carrier. That is to say, firstly, since the laying mesh layer looks thick but is very light, the rotation and lifting adopted do not need to bear excessive pressure; secondly, the angles and heights formed are adjusted in small amplitudes, and the controllability is strong; finally, based on the position of the telescopic rod, the carrier and the base can be relatively limited, and the combination of lifting and rotation adopted at the front end is also convenient to implement (the bottom is the telescopic rod, and the top is a rotating seat rotatably installed on the top of the telescopic rod, where the rotating seat is fixed to the front end of the carrier).

[0035] The above detailed description of the utility model is intended to enable people familiar with the technology in this field to understand the content of the utility model and implement it. It is not intended to limit the scope of protection of the utility model. Any equivalent changes or modifications made according to the spirit of the utility model should be included in the scope of protection of the utility model.
