Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of artificial turf production technology, and in particular relates to a dehumidification device for an artificial turf coating and drying tunnel. Background Technology
[0002] Artificial turf requires drying in a drying tunnel after the adhesive is applied to promote the evaporation of solvents in the adhesive, shorten curing time, and improve production efficiency. The solvents in the backing adhesive (such as water in water-based latex and organic solvents in PU adhesive) will evaporate after heating. Therefore, the drying tunnel needs to be equipped with a dehumidification device to quickly remove moisture / solvents. At the same time, the dehumidification device can prevent moisture retention from affecting the quality of the adhesive layer (such as bubbles, cracks, or whitening of the adhesive layer) and can reduce energy consumption (water coolers have a high specific heat capacity, which can accelerate heat transfer efficiency after dehumidification and can accurately control the drying temperature).
[0003] Current ovens use a single dehumidification mode, which may cause the adhesive surface to dry quickly while leaving residual solvents (such as toluene) inside. This can easily lead to bubbles or adhesive peeling. Existing dehumidification systems cannot dynamically adjust parameters for different drying stages after adhesive application (such as evaporation and curing), affecting product quality consistency.
[0004] Similarly, for the use of artificial turf, the turf is generally a wide product, which corresponds to a wide drying tunnel. However, existing drying ovens have the problem of uneven dehumidification. The wind is strong in the area near the fan, while gas stagnation occurs in the area further away. Poor uniformity affects the dehumidification effect and efficiency. Summary of the Invention
[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a dehumidification device for an artificial turf coating drying tunnel. By designing a modular suction module, suction points can be arranged in various areas of the drying chamber. The drying chamber can be divided into a preheating section, a main section, and a final drying section. The drying and suction modules corresponding to each area are respectively subject to stepped control of low temperature high dehumidification, medium temperature balanced dehumidification, and high temperature low dehumidification. This solves the problem of uneven drying of the adhesive layer inside and outside caused by the overall dehumidification of traditional drying tunnels. Furthermore, the fan power of the main end and the final drying section does not need to be too large, which can play a role in energy saving and consumption reduction.
[0006] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model is achieved through the following technical solution:
[0007] This utility model is a dehumidification device for an artificial turf coating drying tunnel, including a main exhaust pipe, a dehumidifier and several linearly distributed suction modules;
[0008] The suction module includes a suction pipe and a suction fan;
[0009] The suction pipe includes a plug, several branch pipes, and a connection end to the silo wall;
[0010] The peripheral side of the branch pipe is provided with several vents, the bin wall connection end includes an inner pipe, one end of the inner pipe is provided with an exhaust flange, the peripheral side of the inner pipe is fixed with a bin wall flange, and the outer diameter of the inner pipe and the outer diameter of the plug are consistent with the outer diameter of the branch pipe.
[0011] The plug, several branch pipes and inner pipes are linearly distributed and fixed in pairs by a connecting mechanism. The diameter of the air vents on the suction pipe increases sequentially from the end connected to the silo wall to the plug.
[0012] The plug is fixed with a support leg on its periphery, and the support leg is fixed with two wheels for walking.
[0013] The suction fan is located on one side of the connection end of the silo wall and is offset from the position of the suction pipe. The air inlet and exhaust flange of the suction fan face the same direction and are connected by a U-shaped elbow.
[0014] The dehumidifier is a rotary dehumidifier. One end of the main exhaust pipe is connected to the input end of the dehumidifier. The main exhaust pipe is located above the exhaust fans of several exhaust modules. The exhaust ends of several exhaust fans are all connected to the main exhaust pipe.
[0015] Furthermore, it also includes a drying chamber, in which the suction pipes of several suction modules are linearly and laterally arranged in the lower part of the drying chamber, and the spacing between the suction pipes from the front end to the rear end of the drying chamber increases sequentially.
[0016] Furthermore, the two walking wheels roll along the bottom surface of the drying tunnel, a preset opening is provided on one side of the drying tunnel, the inner tube passes through the preset opening, and the tunnel wall flange is fixed to the outside of the drying tunnel.
[0017] Furthermore, the suction fan is fixed to the outside of the drying chamber, and the suction fan is located in the area above the flange of the chamber wall.
[0018] Furthermore, a guide sleeve is provided on the inner side of the silo flange, and the outer diameter of the guide sleeve is consistent with the inner diameter of the preset opening.
[0019] Furthermore, the connecting mechanism is a clamp joint, a quick-connect joint, a threaded joint, or a cam self-locking joint.
[0020] This utility model has the following beneficial effects:
[0021] 1. This utility model, through the design of a modular suction module, can arrange suction points in various areas of the drying oven, dividing the drying oven into a preheating section, a main section, and a final drying section. The drying and suction modules corresponding to each area are respectively subject to stepped control of low temperature high dehumidification, medium temperature balanced dehumidification, and high temperature low dehumidification. This solves the problem of uneven drying of the adhesive layer inside and outside caused by the overall dehumidification of the traditional drying tunnel. Furthermore, the fan power of the main end and the final drying section does not need to be too large, which can play a role in energy saving and consumption reduction.
[0022] 2. This utility model, through the design of the suction pipe with vent, can extend into the bottom of the drying tunnel for uniform air extraction. The diameter of the vent increases from one end of the fan to the other, avoiding the situation where the negative pressure in the area near the fan is too large and the gas flow rate is too fast, thus improving the uniformity of air extraction, thereby improving the dehumidification effect and efficiency, and is suitable for the design of wide drying tunnels.
[0023] 3. This utility model consists of a suction pipe composed of a branch pipe body and a connecting mechanism. At the same time, the installation position is offset from the suction fan, which can be quickly disassembled when maintenance is required. This avoids the problem of long suction pipes being difficult to install and disassemble. It also eliminates the need to leave a large space on the side of the drying tunnel, saving operating space and making it convenient for staff to maintain and clean regularly, thus reducing the problem of fiber and impurities clogging the artificial turf.
[0024] 4. This utility model, through the design of the suction module, can be used as a standalone unit for drying tunnels of different lengths, thus having a wide range of applications. At the same time, the suction pipe is designed to be assemblable, making it suitable for drying tunnels of different widths, further improving its applicability.
[0025] 5. This utility model, through the design of two wheels traveling on the plug, can provide support at one end inside the drying tunnel during installation and disassembly, avoiding the problem of long pipelines being difficult to install and position, and facilitating the positioning operation of the staff.
[0026] Of course, any product implementing this utility model does not necessarily need to achieve all of the advantages described above at the same time. Attached Figure Description
