Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of fiberglass pipe production and processing technology, specifically to a curing device for fiberglass pipe production and processing. Background Technology

[0002] Fiberglass reinforced plastic (FRP) pipe manufacturing is a process that combines glass fiber and its products with resin and other raw materials through a specific process to create pipes. The resin is a flowable liquid at room temperature. After adding a curing agent, the resin changes from a liquid to a solid state through a curing reaction, firmly bonding the glass fiber and other reinforcing materials together to form a FRP pipe with a stable shape and structure. The cured FRP pipe has excellent properties such as high strength, high rigidity, corrosion resistance, and wear resistance, which can meet the requirements of different engineering applications.

[0003] Chinese patent discloses a fiberglass pipe air-drying and curing device (publication number CN216001132U). This patented technology uses multiple rotating fans to air-dry and cure fiberglass pipes. It is equipped with a longitudinal movement mechanism, and the fans can move back and forth along the entire length of the fiberglass pipe for air-drying and curing. The fiberglass pipe rotates while air-drying and curing, which makes the air-drying and curing more uniform. However, for some thick-walled fiberglass pipes, fan air-drying and curing may not be able to fully cure the internal resin because the air flow mainly acts on the surface of the pipe, and the internal resin cannot obtain enough oxygen and heat transfer. It may take longer to reach the ideal curing degree, and there may even be cases where the internal resin is not fully cured, affecting the overall performance of the pipe. Utility Model Content

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:

[0005] A curing device for the production and processing of fiberglass pipes, comprising:

[0006] A curing chamber is provided, with four second support columns connected to the bottom of the curing chamber, and second brake casters connected to the bottom of the second support columns. A placement chamber is slidably connected inside the curing chamber, and a pair of clamps are connected to the bottom surface of the placement chamber. A spindle is rotatably connected to the top of the pair of clamps, and a drive mechanism is provided at the left end of the spindle.

[0007] A sealing cover is connected to one side of the placement compartment, and a pair of first support columns are connected to the bottom of the sealing cover. A first brake caster is connected to the bottom of the first support columns.

[0008] Several infrared lamps are horizontally connected to the top surface of the inner wall of the curing chamber.

[0009] In one possible implementation, the drive mechanism includes a servo motor, one end of the output shaft of the servo motor is connected to a first gear, the outer side of the first gear is meshed with a second gear, and the inner side of the second gear is fixedly connected to the end of the spindle.

[0010] In one possible implementation, a pair of sliders are connected to the bottom of the placement chamber, and a slide rail is slidably connected to the outside of the sliders, with the bottom of the slide rail being fixedly connected to the curing chamber.

[0011] In one possible implementation, a pair of sliding sleeves are connected to the upper and lower positions on both sides of the placement chamber, and a guide rod is slidably connected inside the sliding sleeve. The two ends of the guide rod are fixedly connected to the side wall of the curing chamber.

[0012] In one possible implementation, the position of the infrared lamp corresponds to the position of the spindle.

[0013] In one possible implementation, a dustproof net is connected to the front side of the curing chamber.

[0014] In one possible implementation, a handle is attached to the back side of the sealing cover.

[0015] The technical effects and advantages provided by this utility model in the above technical solution are as follows:

[0016] By fitting a fiberglass pipe over the mandrel and turning on the infrared lamps at the top of the curing chamber, the excellent penetration and thermal effect of infrared light allow the resin to quickly absorb heat and undergo a curing reaction. Simultaneously, a servo motor is activated, driving the first gear to rotate, which in turn drives the second gear and the mandrel to rotate, facilitating the rotation of the fiberglass pipe. This continuous rotation during the curing process prevents uneven heating and ensures uniform curing of the entire pipe surface and interior. This solves the problem that fan-assisted curing primarily affects the pipe surface, potentially resulting in incomplete curing of the interior and affecting the overall performance of the pipe.

[0025] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the technical solution of this utility model, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0026] This application provides a curing device for the production and processing of fiberglass pipes, thereby solving the problems in the prior art.

[0027] The technical solution in this application is to solve the above problems, and the overall approach is as follows:

[0028] like Figures 1-5 As shown, a curing device for the production and processing of fiberglass pipes includes:

[0029] The curing chamber 1 has four second support columns 7 connected to its bottom. The bottom of the second support columns 7 is connected to second brake casters 6. The interior of the curing chamber 1 is slidably connected to a placement chamber 12. The bottom surface of the placement chamber 12 is connected to a pair of clamps 15. The top of the pair of clamps 15 is rotatably connected to a spindle 13. The left end of the spindle 13 is equipped with a drive mechanism. By setting the drive mechanism, the fiberglass pipe can be easily rotated, so that the pipe can rotate continuously during the curing process, avoiding uneven local heating and ensuring that the entire surface and interior of the pipe can be cured evenly.

[0030] A sealing cover 2 is connected to one side of the placement compartment 12. A pair of first support columns 4 are connected to the bottom of the sealing cover 2. A first brake caster 5 is connected to the bottom of the first support columns 4. The support of the first support columns 4 and the first brake caster 5 helps to ensure that the sealing cover 2 slides smoothly.

[0031] Several infrared lamps 18 are horizontally connected to the top surface of the inner wall of the curing chamber 1. When the infrared lamps 18 are turned on, the infrared rays emitted by the heating lamps irradiate the surface of the fiberglass pipe. The resin and other materials in the pipe absorb the energy of the infrared rays and convert it into heat energy, thereby raising the temperature of the resin and triggering the curing reaction.

[0032] In some examples, the drive mechanism includes a servo motor 10, one end of the output shaft of the servo motor 10 is connected to a first gear 9, the outer side of the first gear 9 is meshed with a second gear 11, and the inner side of the second gear 11 is fixedly connected to the end of the mandrel 13. When the servo motor 10 is turned on, the first gear 9 is driven to rotate, which in turn drives the second gear 11 and the mandrel 13 to rotate, which facilitates the rotation of the fiberglass pipe. This allows the pipe to rotate continuously during the curing process, avoiding uneven heating in certain areas and ensuring that the entire surface and interior of the pipe can be cured uniformly.

[0033] In some examples, a pair of sliders 19 are connected to the bottom of the placement chamber 12, and a slide rail 17 is slidably connected to the outside of the sliders 19. The bottom of the slide rail 17 is fixedly connected to the curing chamber 1. The connection between the sliders 19 and the slide rail 17 helps to improve the stability of the curing chamber 1 during left and right movement.

[0034] In some examples, a pair of sliding sleeves 14 are connected to the upper and lower positions on both sides of the placement chamber 12. A guide rod 16 is slidably connected inside the sliding sleeve 14. The two ends of the guide rod 16 are fixedly connected to the side wall of the curing chamber 1. The connection between the sliding sleeve 14 and the guide rod 16 helps to further improve the stability of the curing chamber 1 during left and right movement.

[0035] In some examples, the position of the infrared lamp 18 corresponds to the position of the spindle 13. By setting the position of the infrared lamp 18 to correspond to the position of the spindle 13, it is beneficial to make the infrared rays emitted by the heating lamp irradiate the surface of the fiberglass pipe.

[0036] In some examples, a dustproof net 8 is connected to the front of the curing chamber 1. By setting the dustproof net 8, it is convenient to discharge water vapor during the curing process of the fiberglass pipe, while also achieving the effect of dust prevention.

[0037] In some examples, the back of the sealing cover 2 is connected to a handle 3, which allows people to hold the handle 3 and pull out the sealing cover 2 and the placement chamber 12 on the back, thereby facilitating the removal or installation of the fiberglass pipe inside the placement chamber 12.

[0038] This invention involves placing a fiberglass pipe around the outside of the mandrel 13, turning on the infrared lamp 18 at the top of the curing chamber 1. Infrared light has good penetration and thermal effect, enabling the resin to quickly absorb heat and undergo a curing reaction. At the same time, the servo motor 10 is turned on, driving the first gear 9 to rotate, which in turn drives the second gear 11 and the mandrel 13 to rotate, facilitating the rotation of the fiberglass pipe. This continuous rotation of the pipe during the curing process avoids uneven heating in certain areas, ensuring uniform curing of the entire pipe surface and interior. This solves the problem that fan-assisted curing mainly acts on the pipe surface, which may result in incomplete curing of the interior and affect the overall performance of the pipe.

[0039] The foregoing description only illustrates certain exemplary embodiments of the present invention. Undoubtedly, those skilled in the art can modify the described embodiments in various ways without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Therefore, the above drawings and descriptions are illustrative in nature and should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of the claims of the present invention.
