Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to a coating die head, and more particularly to a self-cleaning die head, belonging to the technical field of coating die heads. Background Technology

[0002] Slit coating is a precision coating technology. Its working principle is that the coating liquid is squeezed and sprayed out along the slit of the coating die under certain pressure and flow rate and transferred to the substrate. The coating die head is a device that can coat the paste polymer, molten polymer or polymer melt onto paper, cloth, plastic film, etc. to obtain composite materials.

[0003] According to Chinese patent document CN218282417U, a self-cleaning coating die head is disclosed. A slit is formed between the outlets of the upper and lower dies, and a material storage space is formed within both dies. The lower die head has an inlet connected to the storage space, and a cap is movably connected to the inlet. The cap is driven by a lifting component located outside the lower die head to close or open the inlet. A liquid inlet pipe is connected to the bottom of the inlet. A detachable sealing plate is provided between the upper and lower dies to close the slit. This invention can clean the coating die head itself, enhances the immersion cleaning function of the slit, and improves the cleaning effect. During cleaning, it eliminates the need to disassemble the entire coating die head into upper and lower dies for separate cleaning, greatly improving the cleaning efficiency of operators and ensuring consistent production.

[0004] Based on the search of the aforementioned patents and the findings of existing equipment, the aforementioned equipment, when used, aims to clean the coating die head by injecting cleaning agent into the storage space and then soaking it. However, in daily use, the materials used in the die head are complex and diverse. For materials that are firmly attached to the inner wall of the space, simply soaking the storage space with cleaning agent cannot effectively remove the stains inside the die head, affecting the next use of the die head and reducing the purity of the materials used.

[0005] Therefore, it is urgent to improve the self-cleaning mold head to solve the above-mentioned problems. Utility Model Content

[0026] The following will describe in detail the implementation of this application with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments, so that the implementation process of how this application uses technical means to solve technical problems and achieve technical effects can be fully understood and implemented accordingly.

[0027] like Figures 1-8 As shown, the self-cleaning mold head provided in this embodiment includes a first mold head 1 and a second mold head 2. A cavity 13 is formed between the interior of the first mold head 1 and the interior of the second mold head 2. The cavity 13 is provided with a sealing plate 17 at both ends, which forms a sealed space in the cavity 13. A cleaning block 15 is slidably connected inside the cavity 13. A sliding groove 24 is provided on the cleaning block. A telescopic rod 16 is provided on the cavity 13. A water spray pipe 14 is provided on both walls of the cavity 13. A plurality of water spray holes 14 are opened on the water spray pipe 14. The sliding groove 24 is slidably connected to the water spray pipe 14.

[0028] Two first motors 3 and two second motors 4 are fixedly mounted at both ends of the first mold head 1. The first motors 3 and second motors 4 are positioned opposite each other, rotating in opposite directions but at the same speed. The output ends of the two first motors 3 and the two second motors 4 are respectively connected to a first rotating shaft 5 and a second rotating shaft 6. One end of the two first rotating shafts 5 and the two second rotating shafts 6 is respectively connected to a first gear 7 and a second gear 9. The two first gears 7 and the two second gears 9 respectively mesh with a first toothed belt 8 and a second toothed belt 10. The first motors 3 and the second motors 4 drive the first toothed belt 8 and the second toothed belt 10 to move. Both belts 10 pass through the two closed plates 17 and the cleaning block 15. The first toothed belt 8 and the second toothed belt 10 are respectively fixed with a first protrusion 11 and a second protrusion 12. The surfaces of the first protrusion 11 and the second protrusion 12 are both arc-shaped. One end of the telescopic rod 16 is also arc-shaped. When the first protrusion 11 and the second protrusion 12 pass through the cleaning block 15 which is blocked by the closed plate 17, the first protrusion 11 and the second protrusion 12 will squeeze the telescopic rod 16 and then pass through the cleaning block 15. In the initial position, the distance that the first protrusion 11 moves to the other end of the first mold head 1 is less than the distance that the second protrusion 12 moves to the other end of the first mold head 1, forming a distance difference to ensure that the cleaning block 15 can slide back and forth inside the cavity 13.

[0029] Among them, such as Figure 6 As shown, the telescopic rod 16 includes a square groove 18 fixedly connected to the cleaning block 15 and a square column 19 slidably connected to the square groove 18. A spring 20 is connected to the top wall of the square groove, and the other end of the spring 20 is connected to the upper end face of the square column 10. The spring 20 allows the telescopic rod 16 to move repeatedly.

[0030] Furthermore, such as Figure 2 as well as Figure 4 As shown, a plurality of first fixing frames 21 and a plurality of second fixing frames 22 are fixedly provided on the outer wall of the first mold head 3. Each of the plurality of first fixing frames 21 and the plurality of second fixing frames 22 is connected to a pulley 23. A first toothed belt 8 is sleeved on the pulley 23 connected to the plurality of first fixing frames 21, and a second toothed belt 10 is sleeved on the pulley 23 connected to the plurality of second fixing frames 22. The supporting effect of the plurality of pulleys 23 keeps the first toothed belt 9 and the second toothed belt 10 away from the first mold head 1, thereby avoiding friction between the first toothed belt 8 and the second toothed belt 10 and the first mold head 1 and reducing wear.

[0031] Furthermore, such as Figure 7 As shown, the enclosed plate 17 is provided with a drain pipe 25, the drain pipe 25 is provided with a first spiral valve core 26, the drain pipe 25 is connected to the inside of the cavity 13, and the purpose of opening and closing the drain pipe 25 is achieved by opening and closing the first spiral valve core 26.

[0032] Furthermore, such as Figure 3 As shown, a water tank 27 and an air pump 28 are provided above the first mold head 1 and the second mold head 2. The water tank 27 is connected to the water spray pipe 14 through a U-shaped water pipe 29. The output end of the air pump 28 is connected to the water tank 27. A water inlet pipe 31 is provided above the water tank 27. The water inlet pipe 31 is equipped with a second spiral valve core 32. The purpose of switching the water inlet pipe 31 is achieved by switching the second spiral valve core 32.

[0033] like Figures 1-8 As shown, the principle of the self-cleaning head provided in this embodiment is as follows: During use, cleaning agent is added to the water tank 27 through the water inlet pipe 31. Under the action of the second spiral valve core 32, a sealed space is formed inside the water tank 27. The air pump 28 adds air to the water tank 27 through the air guide pipe 30 to increase the air pressure. The pressurized water tank 27 will spray cleaning agent into the cavity 13 through the U-shaped water pipe 29 and the spray pipe 14. The first motor 3 drives the first toothed belt 8 and the second motor 4 drives the second toothed belt 10 to rotate in opposite directions. The first toothed belt 8 and the second toothed belt 10 both pass through two closed plates and the cleaning block 15. The first protrusion 11 on the first toothed belt 8 and the second protrusion 12 on the second toothed belt 10 are initially in the same position. The first protrusion 11 moves towards the cleaning block 15 under the action of the first toothed belt 8. Under the action of the telescopic rod 16, the first protrusion 11 will be stuck at one end of the square post 19 of the telescopic rod 16, and then the first toothed belt 8 will drive the cleaning block 15 to slide. The cleaning block 15 will slide from one end of the cavity 13 to the other end. The sealing plate 17 will block the cleaning block 15 from continuing to slide forward and stop in front of the sealing plate 17. The first protrusion 11 will continue to move forward under the action of the first toothed belt 8. Since the contact position between one end of the telescopic rod 16 and the first protrusion 11 is arc-shaped, the first protrusion 11 will squeeze the telescopic rod 16 and then pass through the cleaning block 15 and continue to move forward. After the first protrusion 11 moves through the cleaning block 15, the second protrusion 12 will send the cleaning block 15 back to the initial position under the action of the second toothed belt 10 moving in the opposite direction, so as to achieve the purpose of the cleaning block 15 repeatedly brushing the cavity 13. Finally, the cleaned sewage will be discharged from the cavity 13 through the drain pipe 25.
