Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of textile testing technology, and in particular to a textile color fastness assessment device. Background Technology
[0002] In the modern textile industry, color fastness is one of the key indicators for measuring product quality. It is directly related to the durability, aesthetics, and user experience of textiles. During production, use, and storage, textiles are affected by various factors such as washing, friction, light exposure, and perspiration. Textiles with poor color fastness are not only prone to fading and discoloration, reducing product quality, but may also cause dye migration during contact with the human body, posing a potential threat to human health.
[0003] Currently, in traditional textile color fastness assessment processes, the washing test and drying process are often separated. The washing test is usually conducted in dedicated washing equipment to simulate different washing conditions, while the washed samples need to be transferred to a separate drying equipment. This separate operation process has many drawbacks: on the one hand, the operation steps are cumbersome, requiring frequent manual transfer of samples, which increases the workload of operators and reduces testing efficiency; on the other hand, during the sample transfer process, external environmental factors may interfere with the samples, such as the adhesion of dust in the air and the influence of different ambient temperatures and humidity, causing changes in the sample state and thus affecting the accuracy of the color fastness assessment results, resulting in deviations between the assessment results and actual usage conditions. Therefore, this application provides a textile color fastness assessment device to meet the needs. Utility Model Content
[0004] The technical problem to be solved by this invention is to provide a textile color fastness evaluation device to solve the problem that the existing method requires multiple transfers and drying of washed samples, which affects the accuracy of the test results.
[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model provides the following technical solution:
[0006] A textile color fastness evaluation device includes a movable base, a test tank fixedly connected to the top of the movable base, a sliding door slidably connected to the outside of the test tank, a water outlet on the outside of the test tank, a closing plate hinged to the top of the test tank, a push handle fixedly connected to the top of the test tank near the closing plate, a washing assembly for performing color fastness tests on textile samples by washing, the washing assembly being connected to the test tank, and a drying assembly for rapidly drying the washed samples and finished products for comparative testing, the drying assembly being connected to the washing assembly.
[0007] Optionally, the washing assembly includes a protective sleeve that fixes the inside of the test tank, a drive motor that is fixedly connected to the bottom inside of the test tank, and a rotating rod that is fixedly connected to one end of the output shaft of the drive motor extending to the inside of the protective sleeve.
[0008] Optionally, a partition is fixedly connected to the inner side of the test tank, a stirring rod is fixedly connected to one end of the rotating rod extending to the top of the partition, and a heating plate is fixedly connected to the bottom of the partition.
[0009] Optionally, the drying assembly includes a gear A fixedly connected to the outside of the rod, a gear B rotatably connected to the drive motor near the gear A, a drying rack slidably connected to the top of the partition, and a gear ring fixedly connected to the inner side of the drying rack.
[0010] Optionally, the gears B are symmetrically distributed on the inner side of the drive motor, and gears B mesh and rotate with gears A.
[0011] Optionally, the inner contour of the toothed ring is annular, and the toothed ring is meshed with the gear B.
[0012] Optionally, a hanging ring is fixedly connected to the top inner side of the drying rack, a limit block is slidably connected to the inner side of the hanging ring, and a spring is fixedly connected between the limit block and the hanging ring.
[0013] Compared with the prior art, this utility model has at least the following beneficial effects:
[0014] In the above solution, by setting up a drying component, the sample can be dried directly inside the equipment after washing, eliminating the need to take the sample out for a long time to dry elsewhere. This reduces the number of operation steps, simplifies the overall operation process, and improves work efficiency. At the same time, drying directly inside the equipment avoids the potential impact on test results caused by taking the sample out for a long time to dry elsewhere, thus ensuring the accuracy of the test results.
[0015] By setting up the washing components, the water temperature is raised to about 50 degrees Celsius by turning on the heating plate, and the drive motor is started to rotate the stirring rod, simulating the washing temperature and stirring state in daily life. This makes the test results closer to actual use and can more accurately assess the color fastness of textiles during the washing process. Furthermore, by having textile samples and finished textile products undergo washing tests simultaneously, it is easy to make direct comparisons after washing, which facilitates the assessment of the color fastness of textiles and improves the accuracy and reliability of the test.

[0032] like Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, an embodiment of this utility model provides a textile color fastness evaluation device, including a movable base 1, a test tank 2 fixedly connected to the top of the movable base 1, a sliding door 4 slidably connected to the outside of the test tank 2, a water outlet 5 opened on the outside of the test tank 2, a closing plate 6 hinged to the top of the test tank 2, a push handle 3 fixedly connected to the top of the test tank 2 near the closing plate 6, a washing assembly 7 for washing textile samples to test color fastness, the washing assembly 7 is connected to the test tank 2, and a drying assembly 8 for quickly drying multiple sets of samples and finished products after washing for comparative testing, the drying assembly 8 is connected to the washing assembly 7. The textile color fastness evaluation device provided by this application not only allows textile samples and finished textile products to be washed simultaneously under specified time, temperature and mechanical stirring conditions, and then evaluates the color change of the sample to determine the color fastness of the textile, but also allows for rapid drying of washed samples and finished products, simplifying the operation process and avoiding long-term removal to other places for drying, thus affecting the accuracy of the test results.
[0033] In this embodiment, as Figures 2 to 4 As shown, the washing assembly 7 includes a protective sleeve 701 that secures the inner side of the inspection tank 2. A drive motor 702 is fixedly connected to the inner bottom of the inspection tank 2. A rotating rod 703 is fixedly connected to one end of the output shaft of the drive motor 702 extending to the inner side of the protective sleeve 701. A partition 704 is fixedly connected to the inner side of the inspection tank 2. A stirring rod 705 is fixedly connected to one end of the rotating rod 703 extending to the top of the partition 704. A heating plate 706 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the partition 704. In use, the push handle 3 is pushed to move the inspection tank 2 on the moving seat 1 to a well-ventilated and open space. By opening the closing plate 6, textile samples and finished textile products are placed into the top of the inner side of the inspection tank 2 for easy comparison after washing. Water and washing powder are added simultaneously. The detergent is applied, and the heating plate 706 is turned on to raise the water temperature to about 50 degrees Celsius, which is conducive to simulating the washing conditions in daily life. Then, the drive motor 702 is started, which drives the rotating rod 703 to rotate inside the protective sleeve 701. When the rotating rod 703 rotates, it drives the stirring rod 705 on the partition 704 to rotate, thereby continuously stirring the textile samples and finished products on the top inner side of the test tank 2, simulating the stirring state during the washing process, so that the test results are more in line with daily life and it is convenient to evaluate the color fastness of textiles during the washing process. After washing, multiple sets of textile samples and finished products are taken out, and the water after washing is drained through the water outlet 5, which is convenient for the next set of samples to be tested in simulated washing.
[0034] In this embodiment, as Figures 3 to 7As shown, the drying assembly 8 includes a gear A801 fixedly connected to the outside of the rod 703, a gear B802 rotatably connected to the side of the drive motor 702 near the gear A801, a drying rack 804 slidably connected to the top of the partition 704, a toothed ring 803 fixedly connected to the inner side of the drying rack 804, the inner contour of the toothed ring 803 being annular, and the toothed ring 803 meshing with the gear B802, a hanging ring 805 fixedly connected to the top of the inner side of the drying rack 804, a limiting block 806 slidably connected to the inner side of the hanging ring 805, and a spring 807 fixedly connected between the limiting block 806 and the hanging ring 805. After washing, the sliding door 4 is opened, and multiple sets of samples and finished products are placed into the inner side of the drying rack 804, sliding in through the notch on the outer side of the hanging ring 805. The elastic force of the spring 807 causes the limiting block 806 to press inward, thereby fixing the textiles. Then, the drive motor 702 drives the rotating rod. Rotation of 703 causes gear A801 to drive gear B802 inside drive motor 702, which in turn drives gear B802 to rotate. Gear B802 meshes with gear ring 803, which in turn drives drying rack 804 to rotate along the bottom of partition 704. This removes excess water from the textiles inside drying rack 804, facilitating drying. Excess water is collected through the drying assembly 8 and the bottom hole of test tank 2, and then discharged through the inner hole of moving seat 1 for future use. Afterward, heating plate 706 is turned on to raise the temperature of the bottom inside test tank 2, drying the textile samples. This allows for rapid drying of multiple sets of washed samples and finished products, simplifying the operation process and avoiding prolonged drying in other places, which could affect the accuracy of test results. After drying, the color changes of multiple sets of textile samples and finished products are observed and compared with the gray scale to determine the corresponding grade.
[0035] The working principle of the technical solution provided by this utility model is as follows:
[0036] In use, push the push handle 3 to move the test tank 2 on the movable seat 1 to a well-ventilated and open area. Open the closing plate 6 and place textile samples and finished textile products into the top inner side of the test tank 2 for comparison after washing. Add water and detergent, and turn on the heating plate 706 to raise the water temperature to approximately 50 degrees Celsius to simulate everyday washing conditions. Then, start the drive motor 702, causing the rotating rod 703 to rotate inside the protective sleeve 701. As the rotating rod 703 rotates, it drives the stirring rod 705 on the partition 704 to rotate, continuously stirring the textile samples and finished products inside the top of the test tank 2, simulating the stirring state during washing. This makes the test results more closely resemble everyday life and facilitates subsequent evaluation of the colorfastness of textiles during washing. After washing, remove multiple sets of textile samples and finished products, and drain the water through the outlet 5 for future simulated washing tests. After washing, open the sliding door 4 and place multiple sets of samples and finished products into the drying rack 804, and hang them through the hanging ring 805. The side notch slides in, and the spring force of spring 807 causes the limiting block 806 to press inward, thereby fixing the textile. Then, the drive motor 702 drives the rotating rod 703 to rotate, which causes gear A801 to drive gear B802 inside the drive motor 702 to rotate. The gear ring 803 connected to gear B802 drives the drying rack 804 to rotate along the bottom of the partition 704, thereby shaking out excess water from the textile inside the drying rack 804 for easy drying. Excess water is collected through the drying component 8 and the bottom round hole of the test tank 2 and discharged into the round hole inside the moving seat 1 for easy next use. Then, the heating plate 706 is turned on to raise the temperature of the bottom inside the test tank 2 to dry the textile sample, thereby achieving rapid drying of multiple sets of samples and finished products after washing, simplifying the operation process, and avoiding long-term removal and drying in other places, which would affect the accuracy of the test results. After drying is completed, the color changes of multiple sets of textile samples and finished textile products are observed and compared with the gray sample card to determine the corresponding grade.

It should be noted that for those skilled in the art, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the principle of the present utility model, and these improvements and modifications should also be considered within the protection scope of the present utility model.
