Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of carding machine technology, specifically to a transparent air duct. Background Technology

[0002] During the carding process, carding machines generate fly filth, which may contain cotton fiber fragments, impurities, or dust. If not removed promptly, this fly filth will permeate the workshop air, affecting not only the cleanliness of the workshop but also being inhaled by operators, causing harm to their respiratory system. In addition, if fly filth falls back onto the cotton web or sliver, it can lead to defects and impurities in the product, affecting its appearance and internal quality. The suction port can remove fly filth in a timely manner, preventing it from adhering to the cotton web or sliver and ensuring the stability of product quality.

[0003] However, the air inlet of the carding machine is prone to clogging during the dust extraction process. During daily machine inspections, the original air inlet interface is not transparent, making it difficult to detect pipe blockages. Furthermore, pipe blockages require disassembly and cleaning of the pipe opening, resulting in low maintenance efficiency. Therefore, we propose a transparent air duct structure that facilitates the cleaning of impurities adhering to the pipe. Utility Model Content

Detailed Implementation

[0029] The technical solutions of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the embodiments of this utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of this utility model, and not all of them. Unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features in the embodiments of this application can be combined with each other. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.

[0030] Please see Figure 1-6 The present invention will describe the above technical solution in detail through the following embodiments:

[0031] In this embodiment, the transparent air duct needs to be installed on the suction channel of the carding machine and serves to filter fly lint and fuzz. Therefore, as Figure 1 and Figure 2 The structure shown includes an open tube body 1 comprising a U-shaped transparent tube 11 with one end open, and connecting discs 12 connected to both ends of the U-shaped transparent tube 11.

[0032] like Figure 3 As shown, a pipe opening 121 is provided at the axis of the connecting plate 12, and a locking unit 3 is installed on the pipe wall at the open end of the U-shaped transparent tube 11; in order to obtain a sealed air passage, a cavity 111 is provided on the U-shaped transparent tube 11, and a sealing component 2 is detachably installed in the cavity 111.

[0033] like Figures 3-5 As shown in the structure, the encapsulation component 2 in this embodiment needs to form a conductive pipe aligned with the pipe opening 121 after being inserted into the cavity 111. Therefore, the encapsulation block 21 has a cavity 211 inside. In order to retain flying dust and lint, a filter screen 24 is installed at the air outlet of the encapsulation block 21 located in the cavity 211. That is, flying dust and lint will be retained at the filter screen 24 to avoid clogging the subsequent pipes.

[0034] The transparent acrylic U-shaped tube 11 in this embodiment provides a way to visually observe the blockage. However, considering the need for easy disassembly and cleaning of impurities, a protruding plate 22 is provided at the corresponding position of the encapsulation block 21 and the tube wall of the U-shaped transparent tube 11. Magnetic plates are installed at the contact surfaces of the protruding plate 22 and the U-shaped transparent tube 11, allowing for easy and quick disassembly and assembly.

[0035] To further improve the encapsulation effect, this embodiment provides a support block 23 on the outer side of the protruding plate 22, corresponding to the position of the locking unit 3, wherein the locking unit 3 is as follows: Figure 6 As shown, the locking unit 3 includes a pressure plate 31 with a stop block 311. A first protrusion 32 is connected to the inner side of the stop block 311. A shaft 34 is inserted between the first protrusion 32 and the second protrusion 33. At the same time, a torsion spring 35 is sleeved on the shaft 34 and located between the stop block 311 and the wall of the U-shaped transparent tube 11. The torsion spring 35 can provide a force to press the pressure plate 31 onto the support block 23, which can improve the reliability of the structure.

[0036] It should be noted that if the embodiments of this utility model involve directional indicators (such as up, down, left, right, front, back, etc.), the directional indicators are only used to explain the relative positional relationship and movement of the components in a specific posture. If the specific posture changes, the directional indicators will also change accordingly.

[0037] Furthermore, if the embodiments of this utility model involve descriptions such as "first," "second," etc., such descriptions are for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying their relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of indicated technical features. Thus, a feature defined with "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one of those features. It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that this utility model is not limited to the details of the above exemplary embodiments, and that it can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics of this utility model. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered exemplary and non-limiting in all respects, and the scope of this utility model is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description. Therefore, it is intended that all variations falling within the meaning and scope of equivalents of the claims be included within this utility model.
