Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of garment processing technology, and in particular to a shaping oven for ribbed knitted fabrics. Background Technology

[0002] Ribbed collar knitwear, as an important component of clothing, plays a crucial role in ensuring both comfort and appearance. It not only provides a soft, skin-friendly feel but also greatly enhances the overall aesthetic appeal of the garment with its unique texture and design. However, during production, to guarantee the quality and wearing effect of the final product, ribbed collar knitwear undergoes a series of meticulous shaping processes. These processes aim to ensure the shape and size of the ribbed collar knitwear remain stable, maintaining its original form and size even after prolonged wear or washing, thus extending the garment's lifespan and preserving its beauty.

[0003] When traditional setting ovens heat and set rib knitted collars, the internal moisture of the knitted collar evaporates into water vapor. This water vapor flows freely inside the oven and forms water droplets that fall onto the surface of the knitted collar. This results in some parts of the knitted collar being affected by the falling water droplets, reducing the drying and setting efficiency and causing inconsistent drying efficiency. If some parts of the knitted collar are continued to be heated after drying and setting, the edges of the knitted collar will curl and shrink, reducing the setting effect of the oven on the knitted collar and causing certain defects. Utility Model Content

[0004] The technical problem to be solved by this invention is that the existing technology has the disadvantage of water vapor condensation and water droplets affecting the drying and shaping efficiency. To address this, we propose a shaping oven for ribbed knitted fabrics.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this application adopts the following technical solution: a drying oven for shaping ribbed knitted fabrics, comprising a drying chamber, a cabinet door installed at the front end of the drying chamber, several insert plates slidably inserted into both sides of the inner wall of the drying chamber, a holding plate fixedly connected between two insert plates, a condensing plate fixedly connected to the top of the holding plate, the condensing plate at the top being fixedly connected to the top of the drying chamber, three slots being opened on the surface of the insert plates, conduits being inserted into the inner walls of the slots, a water collection box being fixedly connected to the top of the conduits, and the water collection box being placed at the bottom of both sides of the condensing plate.

[0006] Preferably, the conduit is connected to the water collection box, a conical hopper is fixedly connected to the bottom of the inner wall of the drying chamber, a drain pipe is installed at the bottom of the conical hopper, and a one-way valve is installed at one end of the drain pipe.

[0007] Preferably, extension rods are fixedly connected to all four sides of the holding plate, and pressure plates are slidably connected to the surface of the extension rods. The size of the pressure plates is adapted to the inner diameter of the holding plate.

[0008] Preferably, the surface of the pressure plate is provided with a plurality of ventilation grooves, and the surface of the holding plate is provided with a plurality of holes.

[0009] Preferably, baffles are fixedly connected to both the front and rear ends of the condenser plate.

[0010] Preferably, the two ends of the condenser plate are downward arc-shaped, and the bottom of the two ends of the condenser plate are sharp.

[0011] The technical effects and advantages of this utility model are as follows:

[0012] In this invention, insert plates are inserted into the drying chamber, allowing multiple insert plates to be stacked with the holding plate. The knitted collar is placed inside the holding plate. When the drying chamber is operating to dry the knitted collar, the moisture generated by heating the knitted collar flows inside the drying chamber. Through contact between the water vapor and the surface of the condenser plate, the water vapor condenses into water droplets and adheres to the surface of the condenser plate. The moisture then flows to both sides through the condenser plate and drips into the water collection box. The collected moisture is then guided to the bottom through multiple water collection boxes, preventing the water droplets condensed during the drying of the knitted collar from falling into the holding plate and affecting the drying efficiency of the knitted collar. By condensing water vapor into water droplets and guiding them, the impact of water vapor on the drying effect is reduced, thus improving the drying efficiency of the knitted collar by this device.

[0018] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and preferred embodiments. These drawings are simplified schematic diagrams, which only illustrate the basic structure of the present invention in a schematic manner, and therefore only show the components related to the present invention.

[0019] Reference Figure 1 - Figure 4 As shown, this utility model provides a technical solution: a drying oven for shaping ribbed knitted fabrics, including a drying chamber 1. A cabinet door 2 is installed at the front end of the drying chamber 1. Several insert plates 3 are slidably inserted into both sides of the inner wall of the drying chamber 1. A holding plate 4 is fixedly connected between two insert plates 3. A condensing plate 5 is fixedly connected to the top of the holding plate 4. The condensing plate 5 at the top is fixedly connected to the top of the drying chamber 1. Three slots 6 are opened on the surface of the insert plates 3. A conduit 7 is inserted into the inner wall of the slots 6. A water collection box 8 is fixedly connected to the top of the conduit 7. The water collection box 8 is placed at the bottom of both sides of the condensing plate 5. By inserting the insert plates 3 into the drying chamber 1, multiple insert plates 3 and holding plates 4 are stacked. The knitted collar is placed inside the holding plate 4. When the drying chamber 1 is running to dry the knitted collar, the moisture generated by heating the knitted collar will flow inside the drying chamber 1. Through the contact between the water vapor and the surface of the condenser plate 5, the water vapor will condense into water droplets and adhere to the surface of the condenser plate 5. The water will then flow to both sides through the condenser plate 5 and drip into the water collection box 8. The collected water will then be guided to the bottom through multiple water collection boxes 8 to prevent the water droplets condensed by the water vapor during the drying of the knitted collar from falling into the holding plate 4 and affecting the drying efficiency of the knitted collar. By condensing the water vapor into water droplets and guiding them, the impact of water vapor on the drying effect is reduced, and the drying efficiency of the knitted collar of this device is improved.

[0020] Reference Figure 3 As shown in this embodiment: the conduit 7 is connected to the water collection box 8, and a conical hopper 9 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the inner wall of the drying chamber 1. A drain pipe 10 is installed at the bottom of the conical hopper 9, and a one-way valve 11 is installed at one end of the drain pipe 10. After the collected water is guided to the bottom of the drying chamber 1 through multiple water collection boxes 8, the water in the water collection boxes 8 is discharged into the conical hopper 9. The collected water is discharged through the drain pipe 10 at the bottom of the conical hopper 9, thereby reducing the water vapor generated inside the drying chamber 1 due to water heating. At the same time, the one-way valve 11 ensures the drainage effect of the drain pipe 10 and prevents outside air from entering the drying chamber 1 through the drain pipe 10.

[0021] Reference Figure 3As shown in this embodiment: extension rods 12 are fixedly connected to all four sides of the holding plate 4. A pressure plate 13 is slidably connected to the surface of the extension rods 12. The size of the pressure plate 13 is adapted to the inner diameter of the holding plate 4. When the holding plate 4 holds a knitted collar, the pressure plate 13 is inserted into the surface of the extension rods 12 and the ventilation groove 14 is pressed down to squeeze the knitted collar held inside the holding plate 4. This makes the ventilation groove 14 limit the knitted collar and squeeze the knitted collar to ensure the drying and shaping effect of the knitted collar, making the knitted collar flatter when it is formed and reducing the wrinkles and defects caused by the drying and shaping of the knitted collar.

[0022] Reference Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown in this embodiment: the surface of the pressure plate 13 is provided with a plurality of ventilation grooves 14, and the surface of the holding plate 4 is provided with a plurality of holes 15. The ventilation grooves 14 and holes 15 ensure the air permeability of the holding plate 4 and the pressure plate 13, and ensure the contact area between the knitted collar inside the holding plate 4 and the heat. At the same time, the holes 15 ensure that the moisture inside the holding plate 4 can be discharged through the holes 15, preventing the accumulation of moisture inside the holding plate 4 from affecting the drying efficiency.

[0023] Reference Figure 4 As shown in this embodiment: baffles 16 are fixedly connected to both the front and rear ends of the condenser plate 5. The baffles 16 restrict the flow of water on the surface of the condenser plate 5, preventing water from dripping through the front and rear ends of the condenser plate 5. The baffles 16 also make the two ends of the condenser plate 5 protrude, increasing the water carrying capacity of the condenser plate 5. This allows more water to be stored and prevented from seeping out to the front and rear ends, so that water can drip precisely through the surface of the condenser plate 5 to the lower sides.

[0024] Reference Figure 4 As shown in this embodiment: the two ends of the condenser plate 5 are downward arc-shaped structures, and the bottom of the two ends of the condenser plate 5 are sharp. Through the arc-shaped structure and sharp edges of the two ends of the condenser plate 5, when water flows to both sides on the surface of the condenser plate 5, the sharp edges of the arc-shaped structure ensure the adhesion of water droplets adsorbed on the two ends of the condenser plate 5. At the same time, when water droplets flow to the two ends of the condenser plate 5, the sharp edges are more conducive to the dripping of water droplets, preventing excessive water accumulation on the surface of the condenser plate 5 from continuously being heated and generating water vapor.

[0025] Working principle: By inserting the insert plates 3 into the drying chamber 1, multiple insert plates 3 are stacked with the holding plate 4, and the knitted collar is placed inside the holding plate 4. When the drying chamber 1 is operating to dry the knitted collar, the moisture generated by heating the knitted collar will flow inside the drying chamber 1. Through the contact between the water vapor and the surface of the condenser plate 5, the water vapor will condense into water droplets and adhere to the surface of the condenser plate 5. The water will then flow to both sides through the condenser plate 5 and drip into the water collection box 8. The collected water is then guided to the bottom by multiple water collection boxes 8, preventing the water droplets condensed from the water vapor during the drying of the knitted collar from falling into the holding plate 4 and affecting the drying efficiency of the knitted collar. The dripping and guiding mechanism reduces the impact of water vapor on the drying effect, improving the drying efficiency of the device for knitted collars. Multiple water collection boxes 8 guide the collected water to the bottom of the drying chamber 1, where it drains into a conical hopper 9. The collected water then flows through a drain pipe 10 at the bottom of the conical hopper 9, draining the water from inside the drying chamber 1. This reduces the amount of water vapor generated inside the drying chamber 1 due to water heating. Simultaneously, a one-way valve 11 ensures the drainage effect of the drain pipe 10 and prevents outside air from entering the drying chamber 1 through the drain pipe 10. When the knitted collar is placed inside the holding plate 4, the pressure plate 13 is inserted onto the surface of the extension rod 12, and the water is then directed towards the drying chamber. The downward-pressing ventilation groove 14 squeezes the knitted collar placed inside the holding plate 4, thus limiting the knitted collar. This compression ensures a smoother drying and shaping effect, reducing wrinkles and defects during drying. The ventilation groove 14 and holes 15 ensure air permeability between the holding plate 4 and the pressure plate 13, maximizing the contact area between the knitted collar and heat inside the holding plate 4. The holes 15 allow moisture to drain from the holding plate 4, preventing moisture buildup and ensuring drying efficiency. The baffle 16 restricts the flow of moisture on the surface of the condensation plate 5. The baffle 16 prevents water from dripping from the front and rear ends of the condenser plate 5. The baffle 16 makes the two ends of the condenser plate 5 protrude, increasing the water carrying capacity of the condenser plate 5. It can accumulate more water and prevent it from seeping out to the front and rear ends, so that water can drip precisely from the surface of the condenser plate 5 to the sides. The arc-shaped structure and sharp edges at both ends of the condenser plate 5 ensure the adhesion of water droplets to the two ends of the condenser plate 5 when water flows to the sides of the surface of the condenser plate 5. At the same time, the sharp edges make it easier for water droplets to drip when they flow to the two ends of the condenser plate 5, preventing excessive water from accumulating on the surface of the condenser plate 5 and continuously generating water vapor.

[0026] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features.
