[0001] This utility model relates to the field of textile technology, and in particular to an ironing mechanism for an air-jet loom. Background Technology

[0002] In the production process of air-jet looms, the ironing process plays a crucial role in the final quality of the fabric. However, the current ironing process faces a series of problems that urgently need to be addressed.

[0003] A search revealed that Chinese patent application CN216237740U discloses an ironing device for knitted fabric processing. The device mainly uses a drive motor and a lead screw to move the moving frame, which in turn moves the telescopic rod and the connecting frame. It uses a blower and a heating resistance tube to heat the air, and then sprays the hot air evenly onto the knitted fabric through the air outlet on the ironing roller to iron the knitted fabric thoroughly.

[0004] Compared with existing technologies in related fields, it can be seen that traditional ironing institutions lack effective anti-wrinkle measures when processing fabrics. Fabrics are prone to wrinkles due to factors such as gravity and friction during transportation and ironing. Even after ironing, wrinkle marks may still remain, affecting the ironing quality of the fabric. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide an ironing mechanism for an air-jet loom in order to solve the above-mentioned problems.

[0006] This utility model achieves the above objectives through the following technical solutions:

[0007] An ironing mechanism for an air-jet loom includes a frame, on which an anti-wrinkle unit, a limiting roller mechanism, a tensioning unit, a cleaning unit, and a heating roller mechanism are sequentially fixedly installed. The cleaning unit is slidably connected to the heating roller mechanism, and a levelness sensor mechanism is fixedly installed on the anti-wrinkle unit.

[0008] The anti-wrinkle unit includes two air ducts, which are fixed to the frame. Branch pipes are rotatably arranged on the air ducts. A levelness sensor mechanism is fixedly connected to the opposite side of the two air ducts. A gear ring and a control valve are fixedly installed on the branch pipes. A nozzle is fixedly installed on the control valve. Adjustment components are fixedly installed on both sides of the inside of the frame. A rack is fixedly installed on the adjustment components, and the rack meshes with the gear ring.

[0009] Furthermore, the adjustment component includes a first hydraulic telescopic mechanism, which is fixedly installed on both sides inside the frame. A slide bar is fixedly installed on the telescopic end of the first hydraulic telescopic mechanism. The slide bar is slidably connected to the side of the air guide pipe, and a rack is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the slide bar.

[0010] Furthermore, a lint-absorbing cover is fixedly installed on the air duct.

[0011] Furthermore, the cleaning unit includes a dust collection box, which is fixedly mounted on the frame. A cleaning scraper is fixedly mounted on the dust collection box, and the cleaning scraper is slidably connected to a heating roller mechanism.

[0012] Furthermore, a temperature sensor is fixedly installed on the dust collection box, and the temperature sensor corresponds to the heating roller mechanism.

[0013] Furthermore, the tensioning unit includes a crossbeam and a tensioning roller mechanism. The crossbeam is fixedly installed on the frame and is located between the limiting roller mechanism and the heating roller mechanism. A second hydraulic telescopic mechanism is fixedly installed on the crossbeam. A movable frame is fixedly installed on the telescopic end of the second hydraulic telescopic mechanism. A damping rod and a detection component are fixedly installed on the movable frame. A spring is sleeved on the damping rod, and the telescopic end of the damping rod is fixedly connected to the tensioning roller mechanism.

[0014] Furthermore, the detection assembly includes a sliding rheostat and a support rod.

[0030] like Figures 1-10As shown, an ironing mechanism for an air-jet loom includes a frame 1. An anti-wrinkle unit, a limiting roller mechanism 7, a tensioning unit, a cleaning unit, and a heating roller mechanism 2 are sequentially fixedly mounted on the frame 1. The cleaning unit is slidably connected to the heating roller mechanism 2. A levelness sensor mechanism 6 is fixedly mounted on the anti-wrinkle unit. The frame 1 is fixedly mounted on the housing of the air-jet loom. The fabric produced by the air-jet loom passes sequentially through the anti-wrinkle unit, the limiting roller mechanism 7, the tensioning unit, and the heating roller mechanism 2. The levelness of the fabric is detected by the levelness sensor mechanism 6. The anti-wrinkle unit blows air to clean impurities such as lint from the fabric surface and smooths the fabric to prevent wrinkles. The limiting roller mechanism 7 supports and limits the fabric. The tensioning unit tensions the fabric. The heating roller mechanism 2 irons the fabric. The cleaning unit cleans the heating roller mechanism 2 to prevent impurities from adhering to it and affecting the ironing effect on the fabric.

[0031] like Figures 1-3 , Figure 5 , Figure 6 , Figure 10As shown, the anti-wrinkle unit includes two air ducts 301, which are fixedly mounted on the frame 1. Branch pipes 302 are rotatably arranged on the air ducts 301. A levelness sensor mechanism 6 is fixedly connected to the opposite sides of the two air ducts 301. A gear ring 305 and a control valve 303 are fixedly mounted on the branch pipes 302. A nozzle 304 is fixedly mounted on the control valve 303. Adjustment components are fixedly mounted on both sides of the interior of the frame 1, and each adjustment component is fixedly mounted with... A rack 309 is connected to a gear ring 305. An air duct 301 connects to an external air supply device. The nozzles 304 on both sides of the air duct 301 emit air in opposite directions. When the fabric passes between the two air ducts 301, the external air supply device delivers gas into the air duct 301, and then through a branch pipe 302 and a control valve 303 to the nozzles 304. The airflow from the nozzles 304 then removes lint and other debris from the fabric surface. The airflow is blown down to clean the fabric, preventing lint and other debris from affecting the ironing quality. Simultaneously, because the nozzles 304 at both ends of the air duct 301 face opposite directions, the airflow from the nozzles 304 spreads the fabric to both sides, preventing wrinkles and facilitating ironing, thus improving the quality of ironing. As the fabric passes between the two air ducts 301, the levelness sensor 6 detects the fabric's levelness. Based on the detected levelness, the control valve 303 controls the speed and flow rate of the airflow entering the nozzles 304. Simultaneously, the adjusting component moves the rack 309, which in turn rotates the branch pipe 302 via the gear ring 305, adjusting the tilt angle of the nozzles 304. This better cleans the fabric with air, improving the cleaning and smoothing effect and facilitating the processing of different fabrics.

[0032] like Figure 6 As shown, the adjustment assembly includes a first hydraulic telescopic mechanism 306, which is fixedly installed on both sides inside the frame 1. A slide bar 307 is fixedly installed on the telescopic end of the first hydraulic telescopic mechanism 306. The slide bar 307 is slidably connected to the side of the air guide pipe 301. A rack 309 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the slide bar 307. The air guide pipe 301 supports and limits the slide bar 307, improving the stability of the slide bar 307 when sliding. The first hydraulic telescopic mechanism 306 drives the slide bar 307 to move, and the slide bar 307 drives the rack 309 to move, thereby adjusting the tilt angle of the nozzle 304.

[0033] like Figure 1 , Figure 3 , Figure 5 , Figure 6 , Figure 9As shown, a lint suction cover 308 is fixedly installed on the air duct 301. The lint suction cover 308 is connected to an external suction device. During the fabric production and ironing process, the external suction device collects and processes the lint and other debris blown off the fabric through the lint suction cover 308, preventing the lint and other debris blown off the fabric from being discharged and polluting the environment, and increasing the convenience of processing.

[0034] like Figure 2 , Figure 4 As shown, the cleaning unit includes a dust collection box 401, which is fixedly installed on the frame 1. A cleaning scraper 402 is fixedly installed on the dust collection box 401. The cleaning scraper 402 is slidably connected to the heating roller mechanism 2. The dust collection box 401 is connected to an external vacuuming device. During the ironing process of the heating roller mechanism 2, the cleaning scraper 402 scrapes off the impurities attached to the surface of the heating roller mechanism 2 to prevent these impurities from contaminating the fabric. At the same time, the dust collection box 401 collects the impurities scraped off by the cleaning scraper 402 and extracts them through the external vacuuming device.

[0035] like Figure 4 As shown, a temperature sensor 403 is fixedly installed on the dust collection box 401. The temperature sensor 403 corresponds to the heating roller mechanism 2. The temperature sensor 403 monitors the temperature of the heating roller mechanism 2 in real time during the ironing process. The temperature sensor 403 can adjust the temperature of the heating roller mechanism 2 as needed to ensure that the heating roller mechanism 2 maintains a suitable temperature during the ironing process, thereby better ironing the fabric and ensuring the quality of the fabric ironing.

[0036] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figures 7-10 As shown, the tensioning unit includes a crossbeam 502 and a tensioning roller mechanism 508. The crossbeam 502 is fixedly mounted on the frame 1 and is located between the limiting roller mechanism 7 and the heating roller mechanism 2. A second hydraulic telescopic mechanism 501 is fixedly mounted on the crossbeam 502. A movable frame 503 is fixedly mounted on the telescopic end of the second hydraulic telescopic mechanism 501. A damping rod 504 and a detection component are fixedly mounted on the movable frame 503. A spring 505 is sleeved on the damping rod 504. The telescopic end of the damping rod 504 is fixedly connected to the tensioning roller mechanism 508. The tensioning unit is connected to the tensioning roller mechanism 508 via the damping rod 504 and the spring. Spring 505 provides elastic support to tension roller mechanism 508, ensuring that tension roller mechanism 508 always fits against the fabric and prevents the fabric from becoming loose. During production, the tension force of tension roller mechanism 508 is detected by detection components. Second hydraulic telescopic mechanism 501 moves tension roller mechanism 508 through movable frame 503 and damping rod 504, adjusting the height of tension roller mechanism 508 so that tension roller mechanism 508 can continuously tension the fabric, keeping the fabric in a taut state and preventing the tension force from affecting the ironing effect of the fabric.

[0037] like Figure 8 As shown, the detection component includes a sliding rheostat 507 and a support rod 506. The sliding rheostat 507 is fixedly mounted on the movable frame 503, and the support rod 506 is fixedly mounted on the tension roller mechanism 508. The upper end of the support rod 506 is fixedly connected to the slider of the sliding rheostat 507. When the tension roller mechanism 508 tensions the fabric being ironed, the tension roller mechanism 508 is connected to the slider of the sliding rheostat 507 through the support rod 506. When the tension force of the tension roller mechanism 508 on the fabric changes, the tension roller mechanism 508 drives the slider of the sliding rheostat 507 to move through the support rod 506, causing the position of the support rod 506 on the sliding rheostat 507 to change. By observing the change in the resistance of the sliding rheostat 507, the magnitude of the tension force applied by the tension roller mechanism 508 to the fabric can be determined, facilitating timely adjustment of the fabric tension and preventing fabric slack from affecting the ironing effect.

[0038] Working principle: such as Figures 1-3 , Figure 5 , Figure 6 , Figure 10 As shown, the fabric produced by the loom passes between two air guide pipes 301. An external air supply device delivers gas into the air guide pipes 301, and then through the branch pipes 302 and the control valve 303 to the nozzles 304. The gas is then sprayed out through the nozzles 304. The airflow from the nozzles 304 blows off the lint and other debris on the surface of the fabric, thus cleaning the fabric. An external suction device collects the lint and other debris blown off the fabric through the lint suction cover 308. The airflow in the opposite direction from the nozzles 304 spreads the fabric to both sides to prevent wrinkles.

[0039] like Figures 1-3 , Figure 5 , Figure 6 , Figure 10 As shown, the horizontality of the fabric is detected by the horizontality sensor mechanism 6. Based on the horizontality of the fabric detected by the horizontality sensor mechanism 6, the speed and flow rate of the airflow entering the nozzle 304 are controlled by the control valve 303. The slide bar 307 is moved by the first hydraulic telescopic mechanism 306, and the rack 309 is moved by the slide bar 307. The rack 309 drives the branch pipe 302 to rotate through the gear ring 305, thereby adjusting the tilt angle of the nozzle 304.

[0040] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figures 7-10As shown, the fabric is guided and limited by the limiting roller mechanism 7 and then connected to the tensioning roller mechanism 508. The second hydraulic telescopic mechanism 501 drives the tensioning roller mechanism 508 to tension the fabric through the movable frame 503 and the damping rod 504. The damping rod 504 and the spring 505 provide elastic support for the tensioning roller mechanism 508, so that the tensioning roller mechanism 508 always fits against the fabric.

[0041] like Figure 8 As shown, when the tension force of the tension roller mechanism 508 on the fabric changes, the tension roller mechanism 508 drives the slider of the sliding rheostat 507 to move through the support rod 506, so that the position of the support rod 506 on the sliding rheostat 507 changes. By changing the resistance of the sliding rheostat 507, the magnitude of the tension force applied to the fabric by the tension roller mechanism 508 is determined, and the tension force of the fabric is adjusted.

[0042] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 4 , Figure 9 , Figure 10 As shown, the fabric is ironed by the heating roller mechanism 2. The temperature sensor 403 can monitor the temperature of the heating roller mechanism 2 in real time during the ironing process. At the same time, the cleaning scraper 402 removes the impurities attached to the surface of the heating roller mechanism 2. The dust collection box 401 collects the impurities scraped off by the cleaning scraper 402 and extracts them through an external dust collection device.

[0043] The foregoing has shown and described the basic principles, main features, and advantages of this utility model. Those skilled in the art should understand that this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. The embodiments and descriptions in the specification are merely illustrative of the principles of this utility model. Various changes and modifications can be made to this utility model without departing from its spirit and scope, and all such changes and modifications fall within the scope of the claimed utility model.
