Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of sock production technology, specifically a drying device for sock production. Background Technology

[0002] Socks can be categorized in several ways. Knee-high socks, mid-calf socks, ankle socks, and crew socks (invisible socks) are classified by the length of the sock tube; ribbed socks, elasticated socks, and wide-leg socks are classified by the type of sock opening; and men's socks, women's socks, and children's socks are classified by the intended user. The manufacturing process of socks involves multiple steps. Due to the long processing time, socks are prone to high moisture content after production. Upon direct packaging, these socks are highly susceptible to mold due to excessive moisture, thus requiring drying equipment for drying.

[0003] Existing drying devices mostly use simple hanging or clamping methods, lacking a stable fixing structure. Socks are very easy to fall off during the drying process due to airflow impact or equipment vibration, which not only interrupts the production process but may also damage the socks and affect the yield. Therefore, a drying device for sock production is proposed. Utility Model Content

[0026] 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.

[0027] Please see Figure 1-5 The present invention provides a technical solution: including a base plate 1, and a placement mechanism 2 and a heating mechanism 3 are arranged on the top of the base plate 1;

[0028] The placement mechanism 2 includes a placement section and a blowing section;

[0029] The placement section includes multiple sleeves 22 and multiple clamping rings 213, and the blowing section includes an air pump 28 and a connecting box 21.

[0030] A fixing sleeve 211 is fixedly installed on the top surface of the base plate 1. A limit block 210 is slidably installed on the inner side of the fixing sleeve 211. The top surface of the limit block 210 is fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the connecting box 21. The bottom surfaces of multiple sleeve tubes 22 all penetrate the top surface of the connecting box 21 and extend to the inner side of the connecting box 21. A fixing block 24 is fixedly installed on the top surface of the connecting box 21. A lifting ring 27 is slidably sleeved on the outer wall of the fixing block 24. The top surface of the connecting box 21 is fixedly connected to the bottom surface of multiple clamping rings 213. Multiple control rods 23 are hinged to the outer wall of the lifting rings 27. The side of the multiple control rods 23 near the multiple clamping rings 213 is respectively hinged to the outer wall of the multiple clamping rings 213. An electric telescopic rod 212 is fixedly installed on the top surface of the base plate 1. The top surface of the output end of the telescopic rod 212 is fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the connecting box 21. An air pump 28 is fixedly installed on the top surface of the base plate 1. A hose 29 is fixedly installed through the top surface of the air outlet end of the air pump 28. The top surface of the hose 29 is fixedly installed through the bottom surface of the connecting box 21 and extends to the inside of the connecting box 21. A connecting sleeve 25 is fixedly installed on the top surface of the lifting ring 27. The inner side of the connecting sleeve 25 is slidably connected to the outer wall of the fixing block 24. A pressing screw 26 is threaded through the outer wall of the connecting sleeve 25 and extends to the inside of the fixing block 24. Multiple wedge-shaped grooves are opened on the top surface of the connecting box 21. Multiple wedge blocks 214 are slidably installed on the inner walls of the multiple wedge grooves. The top surfaces of the multiple wedge blocks 214 are fixedly connected to the bottom surfaces of multiple clamping rings 213.

[0031] The heating mechanism 3 includes a heating frame 32. A fixing frame 31 is fixedly installed on the outer wall of the base plate 1. A motor 33 is fixedly installed on the top surface of the fixing frame 31. The bottom surface of the output end of the motor 33 extends through the top surface of the fixing frame 31 to the inner side of the fixing frame 31. The bottom surface of the output end of the motor 33 is fixedly connected to the top surface of the heating frame 32. Multiple heating tubes 34 are fixedly installed on the inner side of the heating frame 32. The multiple heating tubes 34 are used to heat the socks.

[0032] In use, the socks are put on the sleeve tube 22, and then the squeezing screw 26 is turned to move the squeezing screw 26 inward to the fixed block 24, causing the connecting sleeve 25 and the lifting ring 27 to slide downward along the outer wall of the fixed block 24. Since the control rod 23 is hinged to the lifting ring 27 and the clamping ring 213 respectively, when the lifting ring 27 moves down, the control rod 23 will push multiple clamping rings 213 to converge towards the center. At the same time, the wedge block 214 slides in the wedge groove opened on the top surface of the connecting box 21, further assisting the clamping rings 213 in clamping the socks, thereby ensuring that the socks will not fall off during the drying process. The electric telescopic rod 212 on the top surface of the bottom plate 1 is activated, pushing the connecting box 21 to rise, so that the sleeve tube 22 and the clamping ring 213 rise to a height that is easy to operate. After placement is completed, the electric telescopic rod 212 on the top surface of the bottom plate 1 is activated, pushing the connecting box 21 to rise, so that the sleeve tube 22 and the socks on the outer wall rise to the inside of the heating frame 32.

[0033] The air pump 28 fixed on the top surface of the base plate 1 starts to work. The airflow generated by the air pump 28 is delivered to the connecting box 21 through the hose 29, and then blown out through the sleeve tube 22 to blow on the surface of the sock. The airflow can accelerate the evaporation of moisture on the surface of the sock.

[0034] The motor 33 installed on the fixing frame 31 on the outer wall of the base plate 1 starts, and the output end of the motor 33 drives the heating frame 32 to rotate, so that the multiple heating tubes 34 fixed on the inner side of the heating frame 32 can evenly heat the socks. The heat generated by the heating tubes 34 increases the temperature of the socks and accelerates the vaporization of internal moisture. At the same time, in conjunction with the airflow blown out by the placement mechanism 2, the socks are dried in an all-round and fast manner.
