Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This disclosure relates to the field of latex filament processing technology, and more particularly to a water washing device. Background Technology
[0002] After acid washing, latex threads need to be rinsed with clean water. This is done in a clean water tank where the water temperature must reach 65-70 degrees Celsius. The process involves multiple washing tanks and aims to clean and shape the latex threads.
[0003] Traditional processes involve each unit's clear water tank having its own separate warm water inlet and outlet, which results in a large water consumption and high energy consumption. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this disclosure is to provide a water washing device to solve the aforementioned problems existing in the prior art.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solutions adopted in the embodiments of this disclosure are as follows:
[0006] One embodiment of this disclosure provides a washing device for washing latex threads. The device includes multiple washing tanks connected sequentially according to the flow direction of the latex threads. Each washing tank is provided with an inlet and an outlet. The outlet of a subsequent washing tank is connected to the inlet of a preceding washing tank. When the latex threads are thin, water enters through the inlet of the last washing tank, flows through the tank, and exits through the outlet to enter the next washing tank. This cycle repeats, with water entering from the next washing tank and exiting through the first washing tank. When the latex threads are thick, water enters from the next washing tank and enters from both the last and first washing tanks simultaneously.
[0007] For example, the device further includes a main water inlet pipe, a first water inlet branch pipe and a second water inlet branch pipe connected to the main water inlet pipe, and a drain pipe;
[0008] The first water inlet branch pipe is connected to the water inlet of the first water washing tank, and the first water inlet branch pipe is equipped with a water inlet control valve.
[0009] The second water inlet branch pipe is connected to the water inlet of the final water washing tank;
[0010] The drain pipe is connected to the drain outlet of the first washing tank.
[0011] For example, the device includes four washing tanks, from the first washing tank to the fourth washing tank; the device also includes a first propulsion pipe, a second propulsion pipe and a third propulsion pipe;
[0012] One end of the first propulsion pipe is connected to the drain outlet of the fourth water washing tank, and the other end is connected to the inlet of the third water washing tank.
[0013] One end of the second propulsion pipe is connected to the drain outlet of the third water washing tank, and the other end is connected to the inlet of the second water washing tank.
[0014] One end of the third propulsion pipe is connected to the drain outlet of the second water washing tank, and the other end is connected to the inlet of the first water washing tank.
[0015] For example, the drain pipe and each propulsion pipe are equipped with a water pump to adjust the corresponding water flow speed.
[0016] For example, when the surface of the latex filament is rough, the water inlet speed of each washing tank and the drainage speed of the first washing tank can be slowed down by adjusting the corresponding water pump.
[0017] When the surface of the latex filaments is smooth, the water inlet speed of each washing tank and the drainage speed of the first washing tank are accelerated by adjusting the corresponding water pump.
[0018] For example, the water inlet and the drain outlet are respectively located on both sides of the washing tank along the flow direction of the latex threads, and one outlet is provided on each side in the width direction.
[0019] For example, each of the washing tanks is equipped with a temperature sensor to detect the temperature inside the washing tank; each of the washing tanks is equipped with a water level sensor to detect the water level inside the washing tank.
[0020] For example, heating pipes are laid at the bottom of each of the washing tanks.
[0021] For example, each washing tank is provided with a rotatable rotating rod along the width of the washing tank, and rotating the rotating rod can move the latex threads in the washing tank.
[0022] For example, the rotating rod is a concentric roller or an eccentric roller, and is disposed below the latex filament;
[0023] The two ends of the concentric or eccentric rollers are rotatably mounted on the sidewalls of the corresponding washing tank.
[0024] The beneficial effects of the embodiments disclosed herein are:
[0025] The water washing device of this embodiment has a simple structure and is provided with multiple water washing tanks. Water is introduced from the last water washing tank to the first water washing tank, which can save water and energy. When the latex filaments are thick, water is introduced from the last water washing tank and the first water washing tank at the same time to improve the cleaning effect. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation
[0030] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this disclosure clearer, the embodiments of this disclosure will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the embodiments of this disclosure and are not intended to limit the embodiments of this disclosure.
[0031] like Figure 1 As shown in the present disclosure, an embodiment of a washing device is proposed. The device includes multiple washing tanks 100 connected sequentially according to the flow direction of the latex filaments. Each washing tank 100 is provided with an inlet 110 and an outlet. The drain outlet 120 of the subsequent washing tank 100 is connected to the inlet 110 of the preceding washing tank 100. When the latex filaments are thin, water enters from the inlet 110 of the last washing tank 100, flows through the washing tank 100, and exits from the drain outlet 120 to enter the next washing tank 100. This cycle continues, with water entering from the next washing tank 100 to the next washing tank 100 and draining from the first washing tank 100. When the latex filaments are thick, water enters from the next washing tank 100 to the next washing tank 100, and water enters from both the last washing tank 100 and the first washing tank 100 simultaneously.
[0032] In this embodiment, the latex filaments are washed sequentially through a first washing tank, a second washing tank, and a final washing tank, following the flow direction of the latex filaments. Each washing tank has a corresponding rotatable roller at its end to move the latex filaments; details are omitted here. The washing device in this embodiment can have four washing tanks, arranged sequentially in the direction of latex movement as a first washing tank 1, a second washing tank 2, a third washing tank 3, and a fourth washing tank 4. The number of washing tanks can be set according to actual conditions; details are omitted here. A heating pipe is laid at the bottom of each washing tank to heat the water inside. The heating pipe can be independently installed; hot water heated to above 90°C is used to heat the water in the washing tank. The heating pipe can heat the water in the washing tank to 65°C–70°C, facilitating the washing of the latex filaments. A temperature probe can be installed in each washing tank to monitor the water temperature.
[0033] This embodiment employs a modified water washing process. Water enters from the final washing tank and flows through a pipe connected to the drain outlet, sequentially flowing in the opposite direction into the preceding tank. This creates a water circulation between the washing tanks, ensuring the water in the final tank remains clean, improving cleaning effectiveness, and conserving water resources. Specifically, the drain outlet of each subsequent washing tank is connected to the inlet of the preceding tank. Regardless of the thickness of the latex filaments, a diameter of ∮0.7mm to 0.25mm is considered relatively thin; that is, a latex filament diameter less than 0.7mm and greater than or equal to 0.25mm is considered relatively thin. Water enters from the inlet of the last washing tank, flows through it, and then through the drain outlet and pipe into the penultimate washing tank, circulating sequentially. Water enters from the subsequent washing tank and exits from the first washing tank. Generally, if coarser latex filaments are encountered, a larger volume of acid is required for cleaning, necessitating a stronger cleaning force during the cleaning stage. Therefore, water is introduced into the first water tank simultaneously with the water entering the last washing tank. In other words, when the produced latex filaments are coarser (diameter between ∮1.05mm and 0.7mm), which is considered coarser (i.e., filaments with a diameter greater than or equal to 0.7mm and less than or equal to 1.05mm), the water intake of the first washing tank is increased, and the last washing tank and the first washing tank are fed together to improve the cleaning effect. Specifically, after a period of time, the concentration of impurities in the mixed water of the first tank is more likely to exceed the standard compared to other tanks. This can be detected by relevant testing equipment; if the concentration of the corresponding impurities in the mixed water of the first tank exceeds a preset threshold, it is considered excessive. Alternatively, if the mixed water is turbid, the water intake of the first washing tank is increased. Those skilled in the art can determine the appropriate level of turbidity based on the actual situation, which will not be elaborated here.
[0034] Secondly, since each washing tank is equipped with a heating pipe, the washing water already has a certain temperature as it flows into different tanks. Therefore, only a small amount of secondary heating through the heating pipe is needed to reach the required temperature, thus achieving energy savings. In practical applications, the washing device of this embodiment can save 2 / 3 of the water and more than 1 / 3 of the natural gas energy compared to traditional methods where each washing tank is fed separately, achieving water and energy conservation.
[0035] like Figure 2 As shown, each washing tank has a rotatable rotating rod 200 installed along the width of the washing tank 100. Rotating the rotating rod 200 can move the latex threads inside the washing tank 100.
[0036] The length of the rotating rod is perpendicular to the direction of movement of the latex filaments in the washing tank. Rotating the rod at an appropriate speed can move the latex filaments in the washing tank, improving the cleaning effect of the water on the latex filaments and removing impurities such as acid washing residue from the surface of the latex filaments. The width of the washing tank is perpendicular to the direction of movement of the latex filaments.
[0037] like Figure 2 As shown, as a specific example of a rotating rod, the rotating rod 200 is an eccentric roller or a concentric roller, which is located below the latex filament; the two ends of the eccentric roller or the concentric roller are rotatably mounted on the side wall of the corresponding washing tank 100.
[0038] The eccentric or concentric roller is rotatably and sealed to the sidewall of the corresponding washing tank via bearings at both ends. Both ends of the eccentric or concentric roller extend beyond the sidewall of the washing tank. A drive motor is connected to one end of the eccentric or concentric roller to drive its rotation. The position of the eccentric or concentric roller within the washing tank can be adjusted according to actual conditions and is not limited here. In this embodiment, the rotating rod can be configured as a parallel roller or an eccentric roller depending on the actual situation.
[0039] like Figure 2 As shown, the device further includes a main water inlet pipe 300, a first water inlet branch pipe 310 and a second water inlet branch pipe 320 connected to the main water inlet pipe 300, and a drain pipe; the first water inlet branch pipe 310 is connected to the water inlet 110 of the first water washing tank 1, and the first water inlet branch pipe 310 is provided with a water inlet control valve 321; the second water inlet branch pipe 320 is connected to the water inlet 110 of the last water washing tank 100; and the drain pipe is connected to the drain outlet 120 of the first water washing tank 1.
[0040] The first water inlet branch pipe is connected to the main water inlet pipe and the water inlet of the first washing tank at both ends, respectively. The second water inlet branch pipe is connected to the main water inlet pipe and the water inlet of the final washing tank at both ends, respectively. When the latex fibers are thin, water enters the final washing tank through the second water inlet branch pipe, and the water inlet control valve of the first water inlet branch pipe is closed. When the latex fibers are thick, the water inlet control valve of the first water inlet branch pipe is opened, water enters the final washing tank through the second water inlet branch pipe, and water enters the first washing tank through the first water inlet branch pipe.
[0041] like Figure 2 As shown, the device includes four washing tanks 100, from the first washing tank 1 to the fourth washing tank 4. The device also includes a first propulsion pipe 400, a second propulsion pipe 500, and a third propulsion pipe 600. One end of the first propulsion pipe 400 is connected to the drain outlet 120 of the fourth washing tank 100, and the other end is connected to the inlet 110 of the third washing tank 100. One end of the second propulsion pipe 500 is connected to the drain outlet 120 of the third washing tank 100, and the other end is connected to the inlet 110 of the second washing tank 2. One end of the third propulsion pipe 600 is connected to the drain outlet 120 of the second washing tank 2, and the other end is connected to the inlet 110 of the first washing tank 1.
[0042] Regardless of the number of drain outlets and inlets, each propulsion pipe can be equipped with a corresponding number of inlet ends, which are connected to the corresponding drain outlets or inlets.
[0043] The drain pipe and each propulsion pipe are equipped with a water pump 700 to adjust the corresponding water flow speed. This allows for adjustment of the water volume in each washing tank, as well as the adjustment of the water temperature in the corresponding washing tank through the water flow rate, etc., which will not be elaborated here.
[0044] Each propulsion pipe is equipped with a water pump to adjust the water inlet speed of each washing tank, and the water pump through the drain pipe can adjust the drainage speed of the first washing tank to prevent the washing tank from overflowing. The device can be adjusted by the water pump to speed up or slow down the water flow rate, thereby speeding up or slowing down the cleaning of the latex threads.
[0045] Specifically, during pickling, latex filaments with rough surfaces tend to have more impurities adhering to them, while those with smooth surfaces have fewer. When the latex filament surface is rough, more impurities adhere to it. To achieve better cleaning results, the appropriate water pumps can be adjusted to slow down the water inlet speed of each washing tank and the drainage speed of the first washing tank; the soaking time of the latex filaments can be increased; and the filaments can be cleaned using a rotating rod.
[0046] When the surface of the latex filaments is smooth, fewer impurities adhere to them. By adjusting the corresponding water pumps, the water inlet speed of each washing tank and the drainage speed of the first washing tank are accelerated, thus reducing water consumption.
[0047] like Figure 2As shown, the water inlet and the drain outlet are respectively located on both sides of the water washing tank along the flow direction of the latex fibers, and one outlet is located on each side in the width direction.
[0048] Each of the aforementioned washing tanks is equipped with a water level sensor to detect the water level in the washing tank.
[0049] The washing device of this embodiment can also be equipped with a controller, which is electrically connected to a temperature sensor 800, a water level sensor, a water pump and a control valve respectively, receives detection data from the temperature sensor and the water level sensor, and controls the operation of the water pump and the opening and closing of the control valve.
[0050] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present disclosure. It should be noted that for those skilled in the art, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the principle of the present disclosure, and these improvements and modifications should also be considered within the protection scope of the present disclosure.
