Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of prepreg production equipment and relates to a glue tank device that is easy to disassemble and clean. Background Technology

[0002] In the prepreg production process, the coating stage is crucial. Currently, the adhesive tank systems used in prepreg production contain a large amount of filler in the adhesive. During the coating process, because the adhesive is in a relatively static or slow-flowing state (such as at the bottom of the tank), these fillers gradually settle under gravity. Over time, a large amount of settled filler accumulates at the bottom of the tank.

[0003] This filler settling phenomenon can lead to many adverse consequences. On the one hand, when adhesives containing a large amount of settling filler are used to coat and produce bonding sheets, defects such as apparent white spots are very likely to appear on the surface of the bonding sheets. These defects not only affect the appearance quality of the bonding sheets, but may also pose a potential threat to their subsequent performance, reducing the overall quality of the product.

[0004] On the other hand, existing glue tank systems have revealed many inconveniences in practical applications. Because the filler is prone to settling, the glue becomes insufficient for normal production needs after a period of use, requiring replacement with fresh glue. However, cleaning the glue tank during glue replacement presents a significant challenge, resulting in difficult cleaning and long glue replacement cycles, which severely impacts production capacity and labor efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a glue tank device that is easy to disassemble and clean, which reduces the settling of filler, greatly reduces the difficulty of cleaning the glue tank, reduces the cleaning time, and improves the cleaning efficiency.

[0006] The objective of this utility model is achieved through the following technical solution:

[0007] An easy-to-disassemble and clean glue tank device includes a glue tank, a base is provided inside the glue tank, a glue dipping tank is detachably provided on the base, and the glue tank around the base is an overflow tank; a glue dipping roller is provided inside the glue dipping tank, the cross-section of the glue dipping tank is arc-shaped, and a glue spraying assembly is provided directly above the glue dipping tank, the spray pipe of the glue spraying assembly is located above the glue dipping roller, and a plurality of spray nozzles are provided at the lower end of the spray pipe.

[0009] As a further improvement of one embodiment of the present invention, the bottom of the overflow tank is provided with an overflow port, the overflow port is connected to the glue discharge pipe, and a first switch valve is provided on the glue discharge pipe.

[0010] As a further improvement of one embodiment of the present utility model, the glue spraying assembly includes a glue inlet main pipe connected to an external glue inlet pipe, and a second switch valve is provided on the glue inlet main pipe; the glue inlet main pipe is connected to at least two independent spray pipes through a bypass pipe, and the nozzle diameter gradually increases from the junction of the bypass pipe and the spray pipe as the base point to both ends of the spray pipe.

[0011] As a further improvement of one embodiment of the present invention, the bypass pipe and the spray pipe are connected and fixed at the middle position.

[0012] As a further improvement of one embodiment of the present invention, the spray pipes are arranged adjacent to each other, and the central axes of the spray pipes coincide.

[0013] As a further improvement of one embodiment of the present invention, the diameter of the spray pipe is smaller than the diameter of the dip roller.

[0014] As a further improvement of one embodiment of the present invention, the dip roller is centrally located in the dip trough, and the highest point of the dip roller is lower than the opening of the dip trough.

[0015] As a further improvement of one embodiment of the present invention, the edge of the impregnation tank is provided with an outwardly extending guide plate, and the outer edge of the guide plate is exposed outside the base.

[0016] The above technical solution offers the following advantages: By designing an arc-shaped impregnation tank, cleaning difficulty is reduced, and the tank's volume is decreased, increasing the speed of adhesive replacement and effectively reducing filler buildup. A base is designed inside the tank, upon which the impregnation tank rests. Spare parts of the same model can be manufactured, allowing for easy replacement when cleaning is needed, significantly reducing cleaning time. Furthermore, unlike traditional bottom-impregnation tanks, this design features top-spray impregnation, enhancing adhesive flow and reducing filler settling. Attached Figure Description

[0030] It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described in this application can be combined with each other. The present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0031] It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, all technical and scientific terms used in this application have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this application pertains.

[0032] In this utility model, unless otherwise stated, directional terms such as "upper," "lower," "top," and "bottom" are generally used in relation to the direction shown in the accompanying drawings, or in relation to the vertical, perpendicular, or gravitational direction of the component itself; similarly, for ease of understanding and description, "inner" and "outer" refer to the inner and outer contours of each component itself, but the above directional terms are not used to limit this utility model. Example

[0033] See Figures 1-3 As shown, an easy-to-disassemble and clean glue tank device, like other glue tank equipment, includes a glue tank and a dipping roller disposed within the glue tank. A coating sheet is wound around the dipping roller, and the coating sheet is driven to move by a traction mechanism to achieve normal coating operations. The difference from existing technologies lies in:

[0034] This application includes a base 1 inside the glue tank, and a glue-dipping tank 2 is detachably mounted on the base 1. When the glue tank needs cleaning or glue replacement, operators no longer need to perform the tedious and time-consuming cleaning work of the entire glue tank as before; they can simply remove the glue-dipping tank 2 and replace it with a glue-dipping tank 2 of the same model. This simple operation greatly reduces the time spent cleaning the glue tank and effectively improves the efficiency of the equipment.

[0035] Furthermore, the dip roller 3 is positioned in the dip tank 2 and is located in the center. Its highest point is lower than the opening of the dip tank 2. This ensures that the dip roller 3 can be fully soaked in the glue, thus guaranteeing the uniformity and stability of the coating effect.

[0036] In addition, the glue tank portion around the base 1 is designed as an overflow tank 5, with an overflow port 51 at the bottom of the overflow tank 5. The overflow port 51 is connected to the glue discharge pipe 6, which is also equipped with a first switch valve 7. This arrangement allows for the collection of overflowing glue.

[0037] Preferably, the edge of the impregnation tank 2 is provided with an outwardly extending guide plate 21, the outer edge of which is exposed outside the base 1. When the glue in the impregnation tank 2 shakes or changes in liquid level during use, the guide plate 21 can effectively guide the flow of the glue, preventing the glue from overflowing from the impregnation tank 2 and flowing into unnecessary areas such as the base 1, thus avoiding glue waste and contamination of other components of the glue tank device.

[0038] In this application, the cross-section of the impregnation tank 2 has a unique arc-shaped structure, specifically a semi-circular structure. Through this design, in terms of cleaning, the arc-shaped structure, especially the semi-circular design, makes it less likely for dead corners to form inside the impregnation tank 2. Adhesive and any potential filler sediment can be discharged more smoothly during the cleaning operation, greatly reducing the difficulty of cleaning and making the cleaning work more efficient and thorough.

[0039] In terms of glue tank volume, compared to traditional square or other shapes, the semi-circular cross-section of the glue tank 2 effectively reduces the volume of the glue tank. This not only makes more efficient use of space, but also means that the smaller volume allows for faster glue replacement when the glue needs to be changed, significantly increasing the speed of glue replacement, while also effectively reducing filler buildup.

[0040] This application provides an adhesive spraying assembly 4 directly above the impregnation tank 2 to further optimize the impregnation process. The spray pipe 41 of the adhesive spraying assembly 4 is precisely positioned above the impregnation roller 3, and the lower end of the spray pipe 41 is evenly provided with several nozzles.

[0041] In actual operation, the adhesive is sprayed downwards in a dispersed manner from various nozzles through spray pipes 41. This unique design of top-spraying impregnation in the adhesive tank brings many significant advantages. On the one hand, it greatly enhances the fluidity of the adhesive within the impregnation tank 2, preventing the adhesive from remaining in a relatively static state and effectively avoiding the problem of rapid settling of fillers due to adhesive stasis. On the other hand, the continuous spraying action constantly agitates the adhesive, making it difficult for fillers to accumulate in large quantities in one place within the tank, thereby significantly reducing filler settling, ensuring the uniformity of the adhesive composition, and thus guaranteeing the stability of the impregnation effect, providing better conditions for subsequent prepreg production.

[0042] Specifically, the glue spraying assembly 4 in this application includes a main glue inlet pipe 42 connected to an external glue inlet pipe. A second switching valve 43 is provided on the main glue inlet pipe 42, through which the flow of glue can be precisely controlled. The main glue inlet pipe 42 is connected to at least two independent spraying pipes 41 via a bypass pipe 44.

[0043] In particular, taking the junction of the bypass pipe 44 and the spray pipe 41 as the base point, the nozzle diameter gradually increases as it extends from the base point to both ends of the spray pipe 41. This design allows the adhesive to achieve a uniform spraying effect based on the change in nozzle diameter at different locations, ensuring that all areas being sprayed receive a uniform supply of adhesive.

[0044] Preferably, the bypass pipe 44 and the spray pipe 41 are connected and fixed in the middle position. This fixing method further ensures the stability of glue transmission, making the entire glue spraying process smoother and more reliable, and effectively improving the quality and efficiency of glue impregnation.

[0045] In this embodiment, the spray pipes 41 of the glue spraying assembly are arranged adjacent to each other, and their central axes coincide. This arrangement ensures the uniformity and continuity of glue spraying. When the glue is sprayed from the nozzles of each spray pipe 41, it can accurately and stably cover the corresponding areas of the dipping roller 3 and the dipping tank 2.

[0046] Meanwhile, the diameter of the spray pipe 41 is set to be smaller than the diameter of the dip roller 3. This design not only makes the structure of the entire glue tank device more compact and reasonable, avoiding space obstruction caused by the excessive size of the spray pipe 41, but also better adapts to the dip operation, ensures the glue spraying effect, and further improves the efficiency and stability of the dip process.

[0047] This invention features numerous innovative optimizations in the design of the glue tank. Firstly, the glue-impregnation tank 2 adopts a unique arc-shaped structure, specifically a semi-circular cross-section. This design offers significant advantages. On one hand, its smooth arc surface makes it less prone to accumulating dirt and grime, allowing for easier cleaning and significantly reducing cleaning difficulty. On the other hand, compared to traditional glue tanks, it reduces volume, enabling faster glue replacement. Furthermore, the arc surface discourages filler buildup, effectively reducing filler settling within the tank.

[0048] Furthermore, a base 1 is installed inside the glue tank, on which the glue-dipping tank 2 can be detachably placed. By manufacturing spare parts of the same model of glue-dipping tank 2, when cleaning the glue tank, simply remove the old glue-dipping tank 2 and replace it with the new one, greatly reducing cleaning time.

[0049] Of particular note is that this glue tank abandons the traditional bottom dipping method and adopts top spray dipping. The glue is evenly sprayed through the spray pipes, which enhances the fluidity of the glue, further reduces filler settling, and provides better dipping conditions for production.
