Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of dye mixing technology, specifically to a dye mixing device for colored yarn. Background Technology
[0002] Colored yarn, also known as spun yarn, involves first dyeing fibers to a specific color, then thoroughly mixing two or more fibers of different colors and spinning them into yarn with a unique blended effect. Colored yarn achieves a subtle, three-dimensional effect and texture that cannot be achieved with undyed raw yarn. It is also pollution-free and allows for maximum control over color differences. Therefore, colored yarn, with its soft, fashionable colors and ability to handle small-batch, multi-variety production, is increasingly used in mid-to-high-end apparel products. The types of dyes used in colored yarn include natural plant dyes, reactive dyes, disperse dyes, direct dyes, acid dyes, and basic dyes. The application of these dyes in colored yarn can be selected based on the specific fiber type and the desired dyeing effect to achieve ideal color stability and environmental performance.
[0003] Existing mixing methods mostly involve using a stirring rod to mix multiple dyes. After mixing, some dyes will adhere to the stirring rod structure, requiring additional cleaning of the stirring rod. If the stirring rod structure is complex, cleaning the stirring rod structure is inconvenient. Utility Model Content

[0022] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0023] Please see Figure 1-4 This utility model provides a technical solution: a dye mixing device for colored yarn, including a mixing tank structure 1 and a support structure 2. The mixing tank structure 1 includes a cover plate 11 and a conical tank 12. Electric cylinders 13 are installed on both sides of the top of the cover plate 11. The push rods of the electric cylinders 13 are fixedly connected to the conical tank 12. A first connecting ear plate 14 and a second connecting ear plate 15 are respectively provided on both sides of the cover plate 11. The support structure 2 includes a first bearing support 21 and a second bearing support 22. The first bearing support 21 is connected to the first connecting ear plate 14 through a first connecting rod 23. The second bearing support 22 is connected to the second connecting ear plate 15 through a second connecting rod 24. The mixing tank structure 1 is driven by a power component 3.
[0024] The cover plate 11 and the conical tank 12 are separate structures. When the electric cylinder 13 is working, it can drive the conical tank 12 to move, such as... Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the conical tank 12 is tightly fitted against the cover plate 11 under the drive of the electric cylinder 13, thus achieving the sealing of the mixing tank structure 1. Figure 3 As shown, the conical tank 12 is separated from the cover plate 11 under the drive of the electric cylinder 13. At this time, the upper opening of the conical tank 12 is in the open state, and dye can be added through the upper opening of the conical tank 12. The type and amount of dye added are added according to the mixing requirements. After the addition is completed, the mixing tank structure 1 is sealed under the drive of the electric cylinder 13.
[0025] When the power unit 3 is working, it can drive the mixing tank structure 1 to rotate relative to the support structure 2. By controlling the number of rotations and the direction of rotation of the output shaft of the power unit 3, the deflection angle and direction of the mixing tank structure 1 can be controlled, which can drive the mixing tank structure 1 to perform flipping and swaying motions. During the movement, the mixing tank structure 1 drives the various dyes inside to move synchronously, thereby achieving the mixing of dyes. By driving the mixing tank structure 1 to move itself through the power unit 3, the relative movement between the dyes inside the tank is driven, achieving dye mixing. This replaces the conventional stirring rod mixing, eliminating the need to clean the stirring rod. Only the mixing tank structure 1 needs to be cleaned, simplifying the cleaning process.
[0026] The power assembly 3 includes an electric motor 31, the output shaft of which is connected to a gearbox 32, and the output shaft of the gearbox 32 is connected to a drive wheel 33.
[0027] One end of the second connecting rod 24 is connected to the driven wheel 34, and the driven wheel 34 and the driving wheel 33 are connected by a synchronous belt 35.
[0028] The motor 31 drives the drive wheel 33 to rotate via the gearbox 32. When the drive wheel 33 rotates, it drives the driven wheel 34 to rotate via the synchronous belt 35. The driven wheel 34 drives the second connecting rod 24 at one end to rotate. The second connecting rod 24 drives the mixing tank structure 1 to rotate relative to the support structure 2. It can drive the mixing tank structure 1 to perform flipping and swaying movements. The dye is mixed by the movement of the mixing tank structure 1 itself.
[0029] The first connecting rod 23 passes through the first bearing bracket 21 and is connected to the first bearing bracket 21 by a bearing. The first bearing bracket 21 is fixed and used as a support frame, while the first connecting rod 23 can rotate relative to the first bearing bracket 21.
[0030] The second connecting rod 24 passes through the second bearing bracket 22 and is connected to the second bearing bracket 22 by a bearing. The second bearing bracket 22 is fixed and used as a support frame, while the second connecting rod 24 can rotate relative to the second bearing bracket 22.
[0031] The mixing tank structure 1 is equipped with a valve 16 at the bottom. After the dye is mixed, the discharge port at the bottom of the mixing tank structure 1 faces downwards, and the valve 16 is opened to discharge the mixed dye through the discharge port.
[0032] The cover plate 11 is provided with a viewing window 17, which allows the mixing state of the dyes to be observed so that timely adjustments can be made.
[0033] The upper end of the conical tank 12 is provided with a sealing ring 18, which improves the sealing performance at the connection between the conical tank 12 and the cover plate 11 and prevents leakage.
[0034] The cover plate 11 is welded and fixed to the first connecting ear plate 14, and the cover plate 11 is welded and fixed to the second connecting ear plate 15.
[0035] Working principle: During use, the conical tank 12 is separated from the cover plate 11 under the drive of the electric cylinder 13, as follows: Figure 3As shown, the upper opening of the conical tank 12 is open at this time. The specified dye is added through the upper opening of the conical tank 12. After the dye is added, the conical tank 12 is tightly pressed against the cover plate 11 under the drive of the electric cylinder 13, and the mixing tank structure 1 is in a sealed state. The power component 3 works and drives the mixing tank structure 1 to rotate relative to the support structure 2. By controlling the number of rotations and the direction of rotation of the output shaft of the power component 3, the deflection angle and deflection direction of the mixing tank structure 1 can be controlled, which can drive the mixing tank structure 1 to perform flipping and swaying motions. During the movement, the various dyes inside the mixing tank structure 1 move synchronously to achieve the mixing of dyes. After the dyes are mixed, the discharge port at the bottom of the mixing tank structure 1 faces downward, and the valve 16 is opened to discharge the mixed dyes through the discharge port.
[0036] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
