Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of curling machine technology, specifically to a curling component for a curling machine. Background Technology

[0002] The most critical equipment on the post-processing production line for synthetic staple fibers; it refers to the equipment that, based on the principle of mechanical crimping, crimps and deforms the processed synthetic staple fiber tow.

[0003] In the current field of crimping machine technology, the design of crimping components often suffers from low efficiency, poor crimping effect, and complex operation. Traditional crimping methods may rely on manual operation or simple mechanical structures, leading to material damage, uneven crimping degree, and low production efficiency during the crimping process. Furthermore, existing crimping components perform only a single crimp during fiber crimping operations; insufficient fiber temperature results in incomplete crimping, thus reducing the crimping effect and limiting its application range.

[0021] Please see Figures 1-6 In this embodiment of the invention, a curling assembly for a curling machine includes a curling box 1, with a curling groove 7 extending through the inner wall of the curling box 1. A discharge groove 3 is provided at one end of the curling box 1, and is connected through the curling groove 7. A feed roller 8 is rotatably connected to the end of the curling groove 7 away from the discharge groove 3, for feeding material into the curling groove 7. Two steam pipes 15 are evenly fixed to the top of the end of the curling groove 7 near the feed roller 8, and multiple nozzles 16 are fixedly connected to the bottom of each steam pipe 15 for heating the material.

[0022] The inner wall of the curling groove 7 is provided with two top extrusion blocks 11 and a bottom extrusion block 14 at its top and bottom ends, respectively, for extruding and shaping the material. Bottom forming plates 10 and top forming plates 13 are fixed to the inner walls of the top and bottom ends of the curling groove 7, respectively, to match the positions of the top extrusion blocks 11 and bottom extrusion blocks 14. Multiple bottom forming plates 10, top extrusion blocks 11, top forming plates 13, bottom extrusion blocks 14, and steam pipes 15 are arranged in an alternating pattern.

[0023] Cylinders 12 are fixedly connected to the top and bottom of both the top extrusion block 11 and the bottom extrusion block 14, and the cylinders 12 are embedded inside the curling box 1. Multiple conveying rollers 9 are evenly rotatably connected to the bottom side wall of the curling groove 7 near the discharge groove 3, for discharging the curled material from the curling groove 7. A second drive box 6 is fixed to the side wall of the curling box 1 near the conveying rollers 9, and a second drive motor 61 is fixed to the inner wall of the second drive box 6 for driving the rotation of the conveying rollers 9.

[0024] A first drive box 5 is fixed to the side wall of the curling box 1 near the feed roller 8. A first drive motor 51 is fixed inside the first drive box 5 to drive the rotation of the feed roller 8. Gears 52 are fixedly connected to the outer walls of both feed rollers 8 at one end, and the two gears 52 mesh with each other. A discharge plate 4 is fixed to the bottom side wall of the curling box 1 on the side of the discharge trough 3 to guide the curled material out of the curling box 1. Two air inlet pipes 2 are fixedly connected through the top of the curling box 1, and the output end of the air inlet pipes 2 is fixedly connected through the top of the steam pipe 15. A maintenance plate 17 is detachably connected to the side wall of the curling box 1 away from the first drive box 5.

[0025] In use, the material is placed on the feed roller 8, and the first drive motor 51 and the second drive motor 61 are started to drive the feed roller 8 and the conveyor roller 9 to rotate. Simultaneously, steam is supplied to the steam pipe 15 through the air inlet pipe 2, and the steam is sprayed onto the material through the nozzle 16 to heat it. As the material continuously enters and the curling trough 7 rotates, the material is gradually curled into the desired shape under the combined action of the top extrusion block 11, the bottom extrusion block 14, the top forming plate 13, and the bottom forming plate 10. The curled material is smoothly discharged from the curling trough 7 by the rotation of the conveyor roller 9 and slides down the discharge plate 4 to the designated position.

[0026] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0027] The cylinder 12 is supplied with steam by an external air pump to ensure its working effect. When working, it is necessary to ensure the synchronous movement of the two top extrusion blocks 11, the two bottom extrusion blocks 14, the feeding roller 8 and the conveying roller 9.

[0028] At the same time, the two air inlet pipes 2 are connected to the steam conveying equipment to ensure that high-temperature gas can enter the crimping groove 7 to heat and soften the fiber filaments and ensure the crimping effect.

[0029] The working principle of this invention is as follows: The first drive motor 51 is started, driving the feed roller 8 to rotate and feeding the material into the curling groove 7. The two feed rollers 8 rotate synchronously through meshing gears 52, ensuring smooth material entry. Steam pipe 15 sprays steam into the material in the curling groove through nozzle 16 to heat the material. Simultaneously, the top extrusion block 11 and the bottom extrusion block 14, driven by cylinder 12, work in conjunction with the bottom forming plate 10 and the top forming plate 13 to extrude and curl the material. As the material continuously enters, it is gradually curled into the desired shape. The curled material is smoothly discharged from the curling groove 7 by the rotation of the conveyor roller 9 and slides down the discharge plate 4 to the designated position.
