Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of yarn spreading equipment technology, and more specifically, to a yarn spreading device. Background Technology
[0002] In the preparation of glass fiber composites, yarn stacking directly affects the uniformity of resin impregnation and fiber distribution density. Stacked areas are prone to forming localized resin-rich zones or dry spots, leading to stress concentration and structural defects within the composite material, significantly reducing the mechanical properties and service reliability of the product. Therefore, ensuring that the yarns are tightly packed in a single layer without overlap is a core prerequisite for achieving high-performance composite material preparation.
[0003] Glass fiber filaments have a smooth surface and are prone to static electricity, making them extremely susceptible to entanglement and stacking during the unwinding process. The challenge lies in simultaneously meeting two conflicting requirements: on the one hand, the entangled yarns must be completely separated to eliminate overlapping defects; on the other hand, the high-density, tight-fitting state of the separated yarns must be maintained to ensure uniform resin penetration and fiber volume ratio in subsequent processes. Existing technologies struggle to balance both aspects, becoming a key bottleneck restricting product quality improvement. Therefore, to address the aforementioned technical issues, a yarn unwinding device is proposed here. Utility Model Content

Detailed Implementation
[0024] 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.
[0025] Please see Figures 1-7 This utility model proposes a yarn spreading device, comprising a base plate 1 as the supporting foundation of the entire device. Multiple sets of equally spaced conveying mechanisms are installed on the upper side of the base plate 1 for stable yarn conveying. The conveying mechanism includes a first upright plate 2 as a supporting frame, a first motor 3 providing power output, a rotating shaft 4 as a transmission component, and rollers 5 as the yarn carrying surface. The first upright plates 2 are fixedly connected to the upper side of the base plate 1 to form a stable support structure. There are two sets of first upright plates 2 arranged symmetrically to ensure balanced force distribution. The first motor 3 is fixedly connected to the outside of one set of first upright plates 2 to achieve power transmission. The rotating shaft 4 is rotatably connected between the two sets of first upright plates 2 to form a rotational support. The rotating shaft 4 and the first motor 3 are fixedly connected to achieve power transmission. The rollers 5 are fixedly connected to the outside of the rotating shaft 4 as the yarn conveying contact surface. The upper end face of the fixed cylinder 7 is flush with the upper surface of the rollers 5 to form a continuous conveying plane.
[0026] Two sets of symmetrically arranged second vertical plates 6 are fixedly connected between the two sets of conveying mechanisms, forming the mounting frame of the vibration mechanism. A fixed cylinder 7 is fixedly connected between the two sets of second vertical plates 6 as a vibration transmission component. An impact mechanism is installed on the inner side of the fixed cylinder 7 to generate a vibration effect. The impact mechanism includes a first rotating rod 9 as a power input shaft, a rotating plate 10 as a prying component, an elastic paddle 11 as an energy storage element, and an impact rod 12 as a striking component. The first rotating rod 9 is rotatably connected between the two sets of second vertical plates 6 to form a rotational support, and the first rotating rod 9 and the axis of the fixed cylinder 7 coincide to ensure motion balance. The rotating plate 10 is fixedly connected to the outside of the first rotating rod 9 to form a prying surface, and the elastic paddle 11 is fixedly connected to the inside of the fixed cylinder 7 as an elastic energy storage element. The elastic paddle 11 and the rotating plate 10 are matched and abutted to form a periodic prying relationship. The vibrating rod 12 is fixedly connected to the outside of the elastic lever 11 and is installed at an angle to form a striking lever. The end of the vibrating rod 12 is close to the inner side of the fixed cylinder 7 to achieve vibration transmission. A second motor 8 is fixedly connected to the outside of one set of second upright plates 6 to provide driving force, and the first rotating rod 9 is fixedly connected to the second motor 8 to ensure power transmission.
[0027] One set of second vertical plates 6 is externally fixedly connected to a third motor 13 to provide combing power. A second rotating rod 14 is fixedly connected to one side of the third motor 13 as a transmission main shaft. The second rotating rod 14 is rotatably connected between the two sets of second vertical plates 6 to form a rotational support, and the second rotating rod 14 is located directly above the fixed cylinder 7 to form the combing working position. A scraping mechanism is installed on the outside of the second rotating rod 14 for yarn separation. The scraping mechanism includes a fixed plate 15 as a mounting bracket and a rigid brush 16 as a combing element. The fixed plate 15 is fixedly connected to the outside of the second rotating rod 14 to form a support structure. The rigid brush 16 is fixedly connected to the end of the fixed plate 15 as a combing execution component, and the rigid brush 16 is tangential to the upper end face of the fixed cylinder 7 to form effective combing contact. The spacing of the rigid brush 16 matches the yarn diameter to ensure separation accuracy.
[0028] A support pole 17 is fixedly connected to the tail end of the base plate 1 as a support column for the yarn spreading platform 18. The yarn spreading platform 18 is fixedly connected to the upper side of the support pole 17 as a yarn observation platform. The upper surface of the yarn spreading platform 18 is slightly lower than the upper end surface of the roller 5 to form a smooth transition for easy observation of the yarn condition.
[0029] The working principle of a yarn spreading device based on an embodiment is as follows: First, the yarn made of fiber filaments is laid out on the upper surface of rollers 5 and fixed cylinder 7 arranged at equal intervals. Then, the second motor 8 is started to drive the first rotating rod 9 to rotate, which drives the rotating plate 10 fixed to the outside to periodically abut against the elastic lever 11 on the inner side of the fixed cylinder 7. When the rotating plate 10 presses the elastic lever 11 to the critical deformation and then disengages from it, the elastic lever 11 quickly returns to its original position due to its own elasticity and inertia. At the same time, it drives the vibrating rod 12 at its end to hit the inner wall of the fixed cylinder 7. This impact causes the fixed cylinder 7 to generate high-frequency micro-vibration. The vibration energy is transmitted to the surface yarn through the cylinder, which shakes and separates the piled and tangled yarn, achieving the initial yarn spreading effect and effectively avoiding yarn entanglement.
[0030] Then, the third motor 13 is started, driving the second rotating rod 14 to rotate the rigid brush 16 at the end of the fixed plate 15. Since the rigid brush 16 is tangent to the upper surface of the fixed cylinder 7 and the spacing matches the yarn diameter, the yarn is rigidly combed during the rotation, further separating the stacked yarn bundles, ensuring that the yarn is in a single-layer discrete state, laying the foundation for the subsequent winding process.
[0031] Finally, the first motor 3 of each group is started, which drives the roller 5 to rotate synchronously through the rotating shaft 4, so that the yarn that has completed the spreading and combing is output smoothly. When the yarn is conveyed to the spreading table 18 at the end, because the upper surface of the spreading table 18 is slightly lower than the upper surface of the roller 5, the operator can directly observe the flatness of the yarn. After confirming the neatness of the combing, the yarn enters the subsequent winding process. The whole process significantly improves the yarn spreading quality and production efficiency through the three-level synergistic effect of vibration separation, mechanical combing and smooth conveying.
[0032] 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.
