Description

Technical Field

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

[0002] In the cable production process, the drying process is crucial. Cable production involves many processes, such as conductor stranding, insulation extrusion, and sheathing. During these processes, the cable may contain moisture on its surface or inside due to contact with water, the influence of environmental humidity, or the requirements of the process itself (such as cooling and solidification after extrusion). If it is not dried in time, the moisture will seriously affect the performance of the cable.

[0003] There are various traditional cable drying methods, the most common being electric heating oven drying, which uses heating wires inside the oven to generate heat, and then transfers the heat to the cable through hot air convection, causing the moisture to evaporate. Another method is hot air circulation drying, which uses a fan to circulate hot air in a specific space to continuously dry the cable.

[0004] However, when using an oven for drying, the cable placement method, such as stacking or tangling, often results in a large contact area between the cables, and some areas cannot fully contact the hot air, leading to uneven drying. In addition, there are contact points between the cable and the support, and these points are prone to not being dried properly. In view of this, we propose a drying device for cable production. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a drying device for cable production to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:

[0007] A drying device for cable production includes a base plate, a frame fixedly mounted on the top of the base plate, a drying oven fixedly mounted inside the top of the frame, an axial flow fan fixedly mounted on the top of the drying oven, an air outlet provided inside the drying oven, and a drying assembly provided on the top of the base plate. The drying assembly includes:

[0008] A fixed frame is fixedly installed on the top of the base plate. There are two sets of fixed frames, and a conveyor frame is set between the two sets of fixed frames. Hooks are fixedly installed on the moving parts inside the conveyor frame.

[0009] A fixed plate is fixedly installed on the outer wall of the frame, a hydraulic cylinder is fixedly installed at the bottom of the fixed plate, and a push rod is fixedly installed at the top of the piston end of the hydraulic cylinder;

[0010] A push plate, with the top of the push rod fixedly connected to the bottom of one end of the push plate, and a rectangular block fixedly installed on the top of the other end of the push plate.

[0011] In a further embodiment, multiple sets of hooks are provided, and cable bodies are hung on multiple sets of hooks, thereby better conveying the cable bodies and avoiding the cable bodies being dried in a curled and stacked state, which would result in poor drying effect.

[0012] In a further embodiment, the fixed plate, hydraulic cylinder, push rod, push plate, and rectangular block are arranged in two sets, and the fixed plate, hydraulic cylinder, push rod, push plate, and rectangular block of both sets are mirror images of each other at both ends of the oven with the vertical center line of the oven as the mirror axis.

[0013] In a further embodiment, the top of the rectangular block is fitted to the bottom of the cable body for better drying of the cable body.

[0014] In a further embodiment, an auxiliary component is provided on the outside of the frame. The auxiliary component includes a bracket. The bracket is fixedly installed on the top of the base plate. A cleaning tank is fixedly installed inside the top of the bracket. A water pump is fixedly installed inside the bottom of the bracket. The output end of the water pump is fixedly connected to one end of the water outlet pipe. The input end of the water pump is connected to a water supply device. A branch pipe is fixedly installed on the other end of the water outlet pipe. A nozzle is fixedly installed on the branch pipe.

[0015] In a further embodiment, the branch pipe is provided with two sets, and each set of branch pipes has multiple sets of nozzles. The multiple sets of nozzles are arranged in a linear array at equal intervals inside the cleaning box to better clean the cable body.

[0016] In a further embodiment, a bottom pipe is fixedly installed at the bottom of the cleaning tank, and the other end of the bottom pipe is connected to a recycling device.

[0017] Compared with the prior art, this utility model provides a drying device for cable production, which has the following beneficial effects:

[0018] 1. This cable production drying device, in order to achieve better drying effect on the cable body, is equipped with a drying component. The conveyor frame on the fixed frame is activated, which causes multiple sets of hooks to move the cable body smoothly. When the area to be dried moves into the oven on the base plate and the frame, the hydraulic cylinder on the fixed plate is activated, which causes the push rod to drive the push plate to move up and down. This causes the rectangular block to move synchronously, causing the cable body at the contact point to move up and down. This activates the axial flow fan, which outputs hot air through the air outlet, thereby drying the cable body from all directions and preventing poor drying effect in the area in contact with the hooks.

[0019] 2. In order to improve the practicality of the cable production drying device, auxiliary components are set up. Before the cable body is dried, the cable body first passes through the cleaning tank inside the support. The water pump is started in advance, and with the help of the water outlet pipe and branch pipe, the nozzle sprays cleaning water to clean the impurities and gel-like substances on the outside of the cable body. This results in better quality of the cable body after drying. With the help of the bottom pipe, the cleaned water is pumped out of the cleaning tank, which further improves the practicality of the device. Attached Figure Description

It is primarily used to better describe this application and its embodiments, and is not intended to limit the indicated device, element, or component to having a specific orientation, or to construct and operate in a specific orientation. Furthermore, the term "above" may also be used in certain circumstances to indicate a dependency or connection relationship. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of these terms in this application according to the specific circumstances.

[0030] Please see Figures 1-4 This utility model provides a technical solution:

[0031] A drying device for cable production includes a base plate 1, a frame 2 fixedly installed on the top of the base plate 1, an oven 3 fixedly installed inside the top of the frame 2, an axial flow fan 4 fixedly installed on the top of the oven 3, multiple sets of axial flow fans 4, and multiple sets of air outlets 41 inside the oven 3.

[0032] In one embodiment of this utility model, a drying assembly 5 is provided at the top of the base plate 1. The drying assembly 5 includes a fixing frame 51, which is fixedly installed on the top of the base plate 1. Two sets of fixing frames 51 are provided, and a conveyor frame 52 is provided between the two sets of fixing frames 51. Hooks 53 are fixedly installed on the moving parts inside the conveyor frame 52. In addition, multiple sets of hooks 53 are provided, and cable bodies are hung on multiple sets of hooks 53, so as to better transport the cable bodies and avoid the cable bodies being dried in a curled and stacked state, which would result in poor drying effect. A fixing plate 54 is fixedly installed on the outer wall of the frame 2. The bottom of the fixing plate 54 is... A hydraulic cylinder 55 is fixedly installed in the oven. A push rod 56 is fixedly installed on the top of the piston end of the hydraulic cylinder 55. The top of the push rod 56 is fixedly connected to the bottom of one end of the push plate 57. A rectangular block 58 is fixedly installed on the top of the other end of the push plate 57. In addition, there are two sets of fixed plates 54, hydraulic cylinders 55, push rods 56, push plates 57 and rectangular blocks 58. The two sets of fixed plates 54, hydraulic cylinders 55, push rods 56, push plates 57 and rectangular blocks 58 are mirror images of each other at both ends of the oven 3 with the vertical center line of the oven 3 as the mirror axis. In addition, the top of the rectangular block 58 is attached to the bottom of the cable body to better dry the cable body.

[0033] In this embodiment, the cleaned cable body, driven by the conveyor frame 52, moves along the track and enters the oven 3, which is supported and fixed by the base plate 1 and the frame 2. At this time, the environment inside the oven 3 provides the basic conditions for cable drying, and the drying component 5 begins to function. The operator starts the conveyor frame 52 on the fixed frame 51. The conveyor frame 52 operates at a stable speed relying on its internal transmission structure, driving multiple sets of hooks 53 to move synchronously, thereby making the cable body suspended on the multiple sets of hooks 53 smoothly conveyed in the oven 3. When the area of ​​the cable body to be dried is completely inside the oven 3, the operator starts the hydraulic cylinder 55 on the fixed plate 54. The hydraulic system inside the hydraulic cylinder 55 starts to work, and the hydraulic oil pushes the piston, causing the push rod 56 fixedly installed at the top of the piston to move up and down. The movement of the push rod 56 drives the push plate 57 to move up and down synchronously. Since a rectangular block 58 is fixedly installed at the top of the other end of the push plate 57, and the top of the rectangular block 58 is in contact with the bottom of the cable body, The rectangular block 58 also moves up and down with the push plate 57. The upward movement of the rectangular block 58 causes the cable body part at the contact point between the hook 53 next to it to be lifted upward. At the same time, the operator starts the axial flow fan 4 set on the top of the oven 3. The axial flow fan 4 is driven by the internal motor to rotate the fan blades at high speed, generating airflow. The airflow passes through the internal channel and is output from the air outlet 41, forming hot air. Since there are multiple sets of air outlets 41, the hot air can evenly and comprehensively cover the cable body. Under the blowing of the hot air, all parts of the cable body can fully contact the hot air and achieve heat exchange. In particular, the areas that are originally difficult to fully contact with the hot air due to contact with the hook 53 are changed in position under the action of the rectangular block 58, avoiding the problem of insufficient drying in some areas. This achieves all-round drying of the cable body, ensuring that all parts of the cable body can achieve the ideal drying effect, meeting the production process requirements, and avoiding the cable body being dried in a curled and stacked state, which would lead to poor drying effect.

[0034] In one embodiment of this utility model, an auxiliary component 6 is provided on the outside of the frame 2. The auxiliary component 6 includes a bracket 61. The bracket 61 is fixedly installed on the top of the base plate 1. A cleaning tank 62 is fixedly installed inside the top of the bracket 61. A water pump 63 is fixedly installed inside the bottom of the bracket 61. The output end of the water pump 63 is fixedly connected to one end of the water outlet pipe 64. The input end of the water pump 63 is connected to a water supply device. A branch pipe 65 is fixedly installed on the other end of the water outlet pipe 64. A nozzle 66 is fixedly installed on the branch pipe 65. In addition, there are two sets of branch pipes 65. Multiple sets of nozzles 66 are provided on each set of branch pipes 65. The multiple sets of nozzles 66 are linearly arrayed at equal intervals inside the cleaning tank 62 to better clean the cable body. In addition, a bottom pipe 67 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the cleaning tank 62. The other end of the bottom pipe 67 is connected to a recycling device.

[0035] In this embodiment, before the cable enters the drying process, the auxiliary component 6 cleans it to ensure drying quality and product quality. After the cable body is suspended by multiple sets of hooks 53, it moves along a predetermined track as the conveyor frame 52 operates. When it moves to the support 61, the cable body enters the cleaning tank 62. At this time, the operator starts the water pump 63 in advance. The water pump 63 is connected to the water supply equipment through its input end to draw out the cleaning water from the water supply equipment. After the cleaning water enters the water pump 63, it is pressurized by the water pump 63 and flows from the output end into the outlet pipe 64. The outlet pipe 64 delivers the water flow to the branch pipe 65. Since the branch pipe 65 is equipped with two sets, and each branch pipe 65 is distributed with multiple sets of equally spaced linear array nozzles 66, the water flow is divided within the branch pipe 65. After the initial flow, the cleaning water is sprayed out through nozzle 66 at appropriate pressure and angle, covering the entire surface of the cable body. This powerfully washes away impurities and adhesives adhering to the cable body, separating these impurities from the cable surface. During the cleaning process, the washed-off impurities mix with the cleaning water to form wastewater. Due to gravity, the wastewater flows downward and collects at the bottom of the cleaning tank 62. One end of the bottom pipe 67 fixedly installed at the bottom of the cleaning tank 62 is connected to the inside of the cleaning tank 62, and the other end is connected to the recycling equipment. The wastewater is discharged into the recycling equipment through the bottom pipe 67. In this way, the cleaning tank 62 always maintains a certain level of cleanliness, providing a continuous and effective cleaning environment for the subsequent cable bodies, ensuring that all cables are thoroughly cleaned and prepared for the subsequent drying process.

[0036] All electrical components mentioned in this application are electrically connected to the controller and 220V AC mains power. The controller is a conventional and known device that can control the oven 3, axial fan 4, conveyor 52, hydraulic cylinder 55, and water pump 63. All standard parts used in this application can be purchased from the market. The specific connection methods of each part are all conventional methods such as riveting and welding that are mature in the prior art. The machinery, parts, and equipment are all conventional models in the prior art. In addition, the circuit connection adopts conventional connection methods in the prior art, and will not be described in detail here.

[0037] The present invention has been described in detail above. However, modifications or improvements can be made to it, which will be obvious to those skilled in the art. Therefore, any modifications or improvements that do not depart from the spirit of the present invention are within the protection scope of the present invention.
