[0019] This utility model provides, for example Figure 1 The surface sizing system shown includes a sizing unit, a sizing unit, and a sizing recycling unit.
[0020] The rubber compound preparation unit includes, in sequence, a hopper 101, a feeder 102, a dissolving tank 103, a first filter 104, an enzyme conversion tank 105, a gelatinization tank 106, an adjustment tank 107, a storage tank 108, a second filter 109, a feeding tank 110, and a third filter 111; it also includes an amylase reagent tank 1031, a hot water tank 1061, and multiple dosing tanks. The dosing pump of the amylase reagent tank 1031 is connected to the dissolving tank 103, and the water supply pump of the hot water tank 1061 is connected to the gelatinization tank 106 and the adjustment tank 107. The dissolving tank 103 and the hot water tank 1061 are equipped with water supply pipes, and the gelatinization tank 106 and the hot water tank 1061 are also equipped with heaters.
[0021] The hopper 101 has a cylindrical upper part and a conical lower part, with a crusher 1011 installed inside the conical hopper. A vibrator is also installed on the outer wall of the hopper 101. The crusher 1011 and vibrator are used to prevent starch from getting stuck in the conical hopper and difficult to discharge. The crusher 1011 can be an arc-shaped crusher, and the vibrator can be an electromagnetic vibrator. A dust collector is also installed on the top of the hopper 101. A feeder 102 is located at the discharge port of the conical hopper and feeds the starch into the dissolving tank 103; a metering screw feeder can be used.
[0022] Dissolving tank 103, first filter 104, enzyme conversion tank 105, gelatinization tank 106, adjusting tank 107, storage tank 108, second filter 109, feeding tank 110, and third filter 111 are connected in sequence by pipelines, and corresponding valves are installed on the pipelines, such as... Figure 1 As shown, the starch-water mixture flows under pressure between adjacent devices via a transfer pump or by gravity flow due to elevation difference. The dissolving tank 103, enzyme conversion tank 105, gelatinization tank 106, adjusting tank 107, storage tank 108, and feeding tank 110 are all stirred tanks.
[0023] Starch is mixed with water in dissolving tank 103 to form starch paste, which is then mixed with amylase from amylase reagent tank 1031. After initial filtration by first filter 104, it is sent to enzyme conversion tank 105 to complete enzymatic hydrolysis and denaturation reaction. It then enters gelatinization tank 106 and is heated to a starch liquid state before entering adjustment tank 107. Hot water tank 1061 sends hot water to gelatinization tank 106 and adjustment tank 107 to adjust the viscosity and concentration of starch liquid to preset values. Then, starch liquid enters storage tank 108 for buffering, and after secondary filtration by second filter 109, it enters feeding tank 110.
[0024] The adhesive preparation unit also includes multiple dosing tanks, and the dosing pumps of these tanks are connected to the loading tank 110. Specifically, the dosing tanks include an antifoaming agent dosing tank 1101, a sizing agent dosing tank 1102, an aluminum sulfate dosing tank 1103, and a paraffin powder ferrous sulfate dosing tank 1104. The antifoaming agent dosing tank 1101 and the sizing agent dosing tank 1102 can respectively feed the antifoaming agent and the surface sizing agent into the loading tank 110 via diaphragm pumps. The aluminum sulfate dosing tank 1103 is connected to a transfer pump and a filter via pipelines to filter the aluminum sulfate solution before sending it into the loading tank 110. The paraffin powder ferrous sulfate dosing tank 1104 is also connected to a paraffin powder ferrous sulfate dissolving tank 1105. The paraffin powder and ferrous sulfate are dissolved in water in the paraffin powder ferrous sulfate dissolving tank 1105 and then sent to the paraffin powder ferrous sulfate dosing tank 1104. After being pumped by the transfer pump into the filter for filtration, it enters the loading tank 110.
[0025] Starch solution is mixed with defoamer, surface sizing agent, aluminum sulfate, paraffin powder, ferrous sulfate and other functional additives in feeding tank 110 to complete the preparation of adhesive. The adhesive is then filtered again by the third filter 111 and sent to the sizing unit to complete the sizing.
[0026] Preferably, the amylase reagent container 1031 is placed inside an insulated cabinet to maintain the enzyme activity at a suitable temperature.
[0027] Preferably, the first and second filters can be dual filters, one in use and one on standby, with a filter mesh size of 60-120 mesh; the third and fourth filters can be pressure screens with a screen slit width of 100-200 μm.

Each pair of sizing rollers 21 is provided with an adhesive delivery pipe 23 extending axially. Both adhesive delivery pipes 23 are connected to the output pipe of the third filter 111, and multiple sizing tubes 24 are sequentially arranged along the length of the adhesive delivery pipes, extending into the V-groove. Adhesive is delivered to the adhesive delivery pipes 23, sprayed by the sizing tubes 24, and then collects in the V-groove 22 on both sides of the paper, performing excessive continuous surface sizing on the paper continuously advancing through the gap. Figure 2 As shown.
[0029] The rubber recovery unit includes two first recovery troughs 31 respectively disposed on the side of a pair of application rollers 21 away from each other, and two second recovery troughs 32 respectively disposed at both ends of a V-shaped groove 22. The pair of application rollers 21 rotate relative to each other, and the first recovery troughs 31 are provided on the water-spraying surfaces of both rollers away from each other to recover the rubber material splashed out by the application rollers 21; excess rubber material in the V-shaped groove 22 flows from its two ends to the two second recovery troughs 32 for recovery.
[0030] Both the first and second recovery tanks 31 and 32 are connected to the vibrating screen 33 for initial filtration of the recovered rubber material. The outlet of the vibrating screen 33 is sequentially connected to the buffer tank 34, the fourth filter 35, and the sand remover 36 for secondary filtration and sand removal of the rubber material, which is then returned to the feeding tank 110 for recycling. Two vibrating screens can be installed, one for use and one for backup, with a screen mesh size of 60-120 mesh. The fourth filter 35 can be a pressure screen with a screen gap width of 100-200 μm. The sand remover 36 can be a cyclone sand remover.
