Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of glass fiber yarn processing technology, and more specifically, it relates to a glass fiber yarn drying mechanism. Background Technology
[0002] In the current glass fiber yarn production field, the drying process is a key link that directly affects product quality and production efficiency. However, existing drying technologies still have many shortcomings. These problems not only affect production efficiency but may also have potential negative impacts on the quality of the final product.
[0003] Firstly, in traditional methods of drying fiberglass yarn, natural air drying or sun drying is still widely used. Although this method is simple and easy to implement, it has many uncontrollable factors that seriously affect the efficiency and stability of the drying process. For example, during natural air drying, factors such as ambient temperature, humidity, and airflow speed will change with time and season, making it difficult to precisely control the drying time. In rainy weather or high humidity environments, the drying process may be abnormally prolonged, or even cause the product to mold or deteriorate. Similarly, during natural sun drying, changes in sunlight intensity and sudden rainfall may interfere with the normal drying process. This unpredictability not only reduces production efficiency but may also lead to inconsistencies in product quality between batches, increasing the difficulty of quality control.
[0004] Secondly, to overcome the shortcomings of natural drying methods, some production equipment has introduced mechanized drying devices, typically consisting of a combination of fans and resistance wires. This design accelerates the drying process by generating hot air, which does improve efficiency and controllability to some extent. However, this improvement still has significant limitations. The most prominent problem is that these devices often use fixed wind speed and temperature settings, lacking the ability to flexibly adjust for different types of glass fiber yarns. As is well known, there are many types of glass fiber yarns, and different specifications and compositions of fiber yarns have different requirements for drying conditions. For example, fine-diameter fibers may require lower wind speeds and gentler heating to avoid fiber breakage or curling; while coarse-diameter fibers may require higher wind speeds and temperatures to ensure thorough drying. Drying devices with fixed parameters cannot meet these diverse needs, which may lead to under-drying or over-drying of certain types of fiber yarns, thus affecting the final quality of the product. This one-size-fits-all drying method not only reduces the flexibility of equipment use but may also lead to energy waste and increased production costs.
[0005] Furthermore, to address the aforementioned issues, some manufacturers have attempted to introduce adjustable wind speed control mechanisms into drying equipment. While this improvement has indeed provided more possibilities for drying different types of fiberglass yarn, these adjustment mechanisms still suffer from serious shortcomings in design and implementation. The most typical problem is that these adjustment devices typically employ simple mechanical structures, requiring operators to manually adjust the wind speed. This manual intervention introduces new problems: First, manual adjustment is easily affected by human factors, such as the operator's experience, judgment, and operational precision, which can easily lead to inaccurate adjustments. Even experienced operators cannot guarantee that they can accurately set the ideal wind speed every time. Second, manual adjustment often lacks precise numerical references and relies heavily on the operator's subjective feelings, making it difficult to maintain consistent drying conditions between different batches of products. Third, the manual adjustment process is time-consuming and inefficient, especially on production lines that require frequent switching between different types of fiberglass yarn. This adjustment method may significantly reduce overall production efficiency. Finally, manual adjustment cannot achieve real-time dynamic adjustment and cannot adjust parameters in a timely manner according to changes in the state of the fiber yarn during the drying process, which may lead to uneven or unsatisfactory drying results.

[0017] (III) Beneficial Effects
[0018] Compared with the prior art, the present invention provides a glass fiber yarn drying mechanism, which has the following beneficial effects:
[0019] 1. The drying device effectively solves the problems of low efficiency and uncontrollability in traditional natural drying methods through the combined design of components such as the flow guide chamber, output pipe, and air pump. The dual-pump design provides a stable and reliable airflow output and can achieve zoned control. The resistance wire installed in the flow guide chamber can heat the airflow, and the reasonable gap design ensures uniform heat distribution. The filter plate on the inside of the chamber door can effectively filter impurities in the air, protecting the equipment operation while ensuring the cleanliness of the drying environment. The arrangement of the movable roller and guide roller allows the glass fiber yarn to fully contact the hot air, significantly improving the drying efficiency. This mechanized drying method not only overcomes the influence of environmental factors, but also achieves continuous production through the cooperation of the winding wheel and the output wheel, greatly improving production efficiency and product quality stability.
[0020] 2. The adjustment device employs a clever combination of a fitting sleeve, connecting pipe, guide pipe, rotating shaft, fitting plate, fitting groove, and fitting shaft. This solves the problem of fixed wind speed in existing technologies, which cannot adapt to the needs of different types of glass fiber yarns. Through multiple fitting holes on the fitting plate, combined with the sliding of the fitting shaft in the fitting groove, the fitting plate and fitting holes are moved, achieving precise adjustment of the airflow channel area. The fitting design of the sealing ring and the groove ensures airtightness during the adjustment process, preventing gas leakage from affecting the adjustment accuracy. This adjustable design allows the equipment to flexibly adjust the wind speed according to the characteristics of glass fiber yarns of different specifications and compositions. It can provide gentle drying conditions for fine-diameter fibers and sufficient drying intensity for coarse-diameter fibers, significantly improving the adaptability of the equipment and product quality.
[0021] 3. The drive mechanism, through the coordinated operation of the motor, reducer, fixed frame, driving wheel, and driven wheel, effectively solves the problems of inaccuracy and low efficiency caused by manual adjustment in existing technologies. The motor drives the driving wheel to rotate through the reducer, and the meshing transmission between the driving wheel and the driven wheel ensures the smoothness and accuracy of the adjustment process. This automated adjustment method not only eliminates errors caused by human operation but also achieves rapid and precise wind speed adjustment. The design of the fixed frame provides stable installation support, ensuring the reliable operation of the transmission system. This mechanized drive method greatly improves adjustment efficiency, enabling consistent drying conditions between different batches of products. It also provides a foundation for achieving automated control, significantly improving production efficiency and product quality stability. Attached Figure Description

[0031] Please see Figures 1-5 A glass fiber yarn drying mechanism includes a housing 1, on which a drying device is mounted. The drying device includes a guide chamber 2, an output pipe 3, and an air pump 4. The guide chamber 2 is detachably mounted on the top of the housing 1. The output pipe 3 is connected to the output end of the air pump 4. The air pump 4 is detachably mounted inside the housing 1. Two sets of drying devices are provided. An adjustment device is connected to the top of the guide chamber 2. The adjustment device includes a fitting sleeve 5, a connecting pipe 6, a guide pipe 7, a rotating shaft 8, a fitting plate 9, a fitting groove 10, and a fitting shaft 11. The two ends of the fitting sleeve 5 are rotatably connected to the connecting pipe 6 and the guide pipe 7, respectively. The connecting pipe 6 is fixedly connected to the output pipe 3, and the guide pipe 7 is fixedly connected to the guide chamber 2. The fitting plate 9 is connected to the fitting sleeve 2 via the rotating shaft 8. The inner side of the sleeve 5 is rotatably connected, and the other side of the mating plate 9 is slidably connected to the mating groove 10 through the mating shaft 11. The mating groove 10 is opened on one side of the connecting pipe 6. A drive mechanism is provided on the outer side of the connecting pipe 6. The drive mechanism includes a motor 12, a reducer 13, a fixed frame 14, a drive wheel 15, and a driven wheel 16. The fixed frame 14 is fixedly installed on the outer side of the connecting pipe 6. The reducer 13 is detachably installed on the top of the fixed frame 14. The input end of the reducer 13 is connected to the output end of the motor 12. The output end of the reducer 13 passes through the fixed frame 14 and is connected to the drive wheel 15. The drive wheel 15 is rotatably installed on the inner side of the fixed frame 14. The driven wheel 16 is fixedly connected to one side of the control sleeve, and the drive wheel 15 and the driven wheel 16 mesh.
[0032] Multiple mating holes 17 are provided on the mating plate 9.
[0033] A sealing ring 18 is detachably provided on one side of the connecting pipe 6, and a groove 19 is correspondingly provided on the inner side of the mating sleeve 5, which is adapted to the sealing ring 18.
[0034] In this embodiment, when it is necessary to adjust the input wind speed of the corresponding guide chamber 2, the motor 12 installed on the fixed frame 14 is turned on. After the output end of the motor 12 is reduced by the reducer 13, it drives the drive wheel 15 to rotate. Then the drive wheel 15 drives the driven wheel 16 to rotate. Then the driven wheel 16 drives the mating sleeve 5 to rotate. Then the mating sleeve 5 drives the mating plate 9 to rotate through the rotating shaft 8. Then the mating plate 9 drives the mating hole 17 to move. At the same time, the mating plate 9 drives the mating shaft 11 set on the other side to slide along the mating groove 10 opened on one side of the connecting pipe 6. Due to the limiting of the mating groove 10 and the mating shaft 11, multiple mating plates 9 will open outwards synchronously and drive the mating hole 17 to move. The cooperation of the sealing ring 18 and the groove 19 enhances the sealing between the connecting pipe 6 and the mating sleeve 5, preventing gas leakage during the adjustment process. Then the movement of the mating plate 9 and the mating hole 17 changes the flow area inside the mating sleeve 5 and changes the gas passage volume, thereby achieving the purpose of adjusting the input wind speed. After the adjustment is appropriate, the motor 12 can be turned off.
[0035] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 2 As a further implementation of the overall equipment: a resistance wire 20 is detachably provided inside the flow guide chamber 2, and there are gaps between the resistance wires 20.
[0036] A door 21 is movable on one side of the casing 1, and a filter plate 22 is detachably installed on the inside of the door 21.
[0037] A winding wheel 23 is rotatably mounted on the top side of one side of the chassis 1, and an output wheel 24 is rotatably mounted on the bottom side of the other side of the chassis 1.
[0038] A speed-regulating motor 25 is detachably installed on one side of the housing 1, and the output end of the speed-regulating motor 25 is connected to one end of the take-up reel 23.
[0039] Multiple movable rollers 26 are rotatably provided at the top of the casing 1, and multiple guide rollers 27 are rotatably provided on one side of the casing 1.
[0040] More specifically, when the equipment is needed, first, the output roller 24 with the glass fiber yarn wound up is installed on one side of the casing 1. Then, the glass fiber yarn is wound around the guide roller 27 and the movable roller 26 in sequence, and finally wrapped around the outside of the take-up roller 23. Then, the resistance wire 20 installed in the guide chamber 2 is turned on for heating. Then, the output air speed is adjusted according to the characteristics of the glass fiber yarn. Then, the two air pumps 4 installed in the casing 1 are turned on. The air pumps 4 will draw air into the interior through the input end. Outside air will enter the casing 1 after passing through the filter plate 22 installed on the door 21 and will be drawn in by the air pumps 4. The filter plate 22 can effectively intercept impurities and foreign objects in the air, preventing damage to the air pump 4 and blockage of the pipes. Then, the air pump 4 will input the drawn air into the output pipe 3 connected to the output end of the air pump 4, and then enter the guide chamber 2 through the connecting pipe 6 and the guide pipe 7, and then come into contact with the resistance wire 20 and be heated by the resistance wire 20, so that the hot air blows onto the glass fiber yarn on the movable roller 26, thereby drying the glass fiber yarn. Then, the speed regulating motor 25 is turned on, and the speed regulating motor 25 drives the winding wheel 23 to rotate slowly, thereby winding up the dried glass fiber yarn.
[0041] In summary, when the overall equipment is in use or running: when it is necessary to adjust the input wind speed of the corresponding guide chamber 2, turn on the motor 12 installed on the fixed frame 14. After the output end of the motor 12 is reduced by the reducer 13, it drives the drive wheel 15 to rotate. Then the drive wheel 15 drives the driven wheel 16 to rotate. Then the driven wheel 16 drives the mating sleeve 5 to rotate. Then the mating sleeve 5 drives the mating plate 9 to rotate through the rotating shaft 8. Then the mating plate 9 drives the mating hole 17 to move. At the same time, the mating plate 9 drives the mating shaft 11 set on the other side to slide along the mating groove 10 opened on one side of the connecting pipe 6. Due to the limiting of the mating groove 10 and the mating shaft 11, multiple mating plates 9 will open outwards synchronously and drive the mating hole 17 to move. The cooperation of the sealing ring 18 and the groove 19 enhances the sealing between the connecting pipe 6 and the mating sleeve 5, preventing gas leakage during the adjustment process. Then the movement of the mating plate 9 and the mating hole 17 changes the flow area inside the mating sleeve 5 and changes the gas passage volume, thereby achieving the purpose of adjusting the input wind speed. After the adjustment is appropriate, turn off the motor 12.
[0042] When the equipment is needed, first install the output roller 24 with the glass fiber yarn wound on one side of the casing 1. Then, the glass fiber yarn is wound around the guide roller 27 and the movable roller 26 in sequence, and finally wrapped around the outside of the take-up roller 23. Then, turn on the resistance wire 20 installed in the guide chamber 2 for heating. Then, adjust the output air speed according to the characteristics of the glass fiber yarn. Then, turn on the two air pumps 4 installed in the casing 1. The air pumps 4 will draw air into the interior through the input end. Outside air will enter the casing 1 after passing through the filter plate 22 installed on the door 21 and be sucked in by the air pumps 4. 22 can effectively intercept impurities and foreign objects in the air, preventing damage to the air pump 4 and blockage of the pipes. Then, the air pump 4 will input the drawn-in air into the output pipe 3 connected to the output end of the air pump 4, and then enter the guide chamber 2 through the connecting pipe 6 and the guide pipe 7, and then come into contact with the resistance wire 20 and be heated by the resistance wire 20, so that the hot air blows onto the glass fiber yarn on the movable roller 26, thereby drying the glass fiber yarn. Then, the speed regulating motor 25 is turned on, and the speed regulating motor 25 drives the winding wheel 23 to rotate slowly, thereby winding up the dried glass fiber yarn.
