[0021] 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.
[0022] Please see Figure 1-4 This utility model provides a technical solution:
[0023] The peripheral heating cylinder includes a base 1 and a preheating cylinder 2. These two parts constitute the basic framework of the equipment. Several sets of semi-circular cylinders 3 are fixedly installed in a ring array around the inner wall of the preheating cylinder 2. This design ensures that the heat can be applied evenly and comprehensively to the raw paper to be heated. Connecting shafts 4 are fixedly connected to both ends of the preheating cylinder 2. The connecting shafts 4 not only support the preheating cylinder 2, but also undertake the important tasks of heat transfer and power transmission.
[0024] The connecting shaft 4 has an air passage 5 reserved inside. Several sets of semi-circular cylinders 3 are connected to the air passage 5 inside the connecting shaft 4 through the preheating channel 10. The air passage 5 is the key channel for heat transfer, so that the heat generated by the heating source can smoothly enter the preheating cylinder 2. Several sets of semi-circular cylinders 3 are connected to the air passage 5 inside the connecting shaft 4 through the preheating channel 10, forming a complete heat transfer network. One end of one set of connecting shafts 4 is connected to the heating source mechanism 6, which provides the required heat for the entire preheating cylinder 2.
[0025] A power assembly is installed on one side wall of the base 1 to provide power to the connecting shaft 4, thereby rotating the preheating cylinder 2. By fixing several sets of semi-circular cylinders 3 in a circular array around the inner wall of the preheating cylinder 2, multi-directional and uniform heat transfer is achieved. This design avoids the problems of local overheating or underheating that may occur in traditional heating methods. The connecting shaft 4 has a reserved air passage 5, and the several sets of semi-circular cylinders 3 are all connected to the air passage 5 inside the connecting shaft 4 through the preheating channel 10. This airflow channel design ensures that the heating medium can smoothly enter each semi-circular cylinder 3, achieving efficient heat transfer and utilization, while reducing heat loss and improving heating efficiency.
[0026] The heating source mechanism 6 includes a steam generator 601, which is responsible for generating high-temperature steam. A pump body 602 is fixedly connected to one side of the steam generator 601, and a delivery pipe 603 is fixedly connected to one end of the pump body 602. The function of the pump body 602 is to pressurize the steam generated by the steam generator 601 and deliver it to the delivery pipe 603. A gas passage rotary joint 604 is fixedly connected to one end of the delivery pipe 603. The gas passage rotary joint 604 is connected to the gas passage 5 inside one of the connecting shafts 4. The connection between the gas passage rotary joint 604 and the gas passage 5 inside one of the connecting shafts 4 realizes the smooth transfer of steam from the heating source mechanism 6 to the preheating cylinder 2.
[0027] The outer wall of the conveying pipe 603 is covered with insulation material, which effectively reduces heat loss of steam during transmission and improves heating efficiency. This insulation material is made of high-density aluminum silicate fiber felt, which has excellent thermal insulation performance and high-temperature resistance, effectively reducing heat loss during steam transmission. The thickness of the high-density aluminum silicate fiber felt is precisely calculated based on the actual transmission distance and steam temperature to ensure that steam temperature loss is kept to a minimum during long-distance transmission, thereby improving the efficiency of the entire heating system.
[0028] The power assembly includes a drive motor 701, a rotating shaft 702, a first synchronous pulley 703, a second synchronous pulley 704, and a synchronous belt 705. One end of the rotating shaft 702 is connected to the drive motor 701, and the other end of the rotating shaft 702 is fixedly connected to the first synchronous pulley 703. The second synchronous pulley 704 is fixedly sleeved on the outer wall of the connecting shaft 4. The first synchronous pulley 703 and the second synchronous pulley 704 are connected by a transmission drive through the synchronous belt 705. The drive motor 701 serves as the energy source for the entire power assembly. One end of the rotating shaft 702 is connected to the drive motor 701, and the other end is fixedly connected to the first synchronous pulley 703, thus realizing the transmission of power from the drive motor 701 to the rotating shaft 702. When the drive motor 701 starts, it provides power to the connecting shaft 4 through the transmission action of the rotating shaft 702, the first synchronous pulley 703, the synchronous belt 705, and the second synchronous pulley 704, thereby driving the preheating cylinder 2 to rotate. The synchronous belt 705 is made of high-strength, wear-resistant rubber, which has good transmission performance and a long service life.
[0029] The drive motor 701 is fixedly mounted on one side wall of the base 1. One end of the output shaft of the drive motor 701 is fixedly connected to one end of the rotating shaft 702. The drive motor 701 is a high-performance AC servo motor with high precision, high response speed, and good speed regulation performance. Its rated power is precisely matched according to the rotational load and heating requirements of the preheating cylinder 2 to ensure that it can maintain a stable operating speed while providing sufficient power. The drive motor 701 has built-in multiple safety protection mechanisms such as overload protection and overheat protection, which effectively prevent the motor from being damaged under abnormal operating conditions and improve the safety and reliability of the equipment. The drive motor 701 is fixedly mounted on one side wall of the base 1, serving as the energy source for the entire power system.
[0030] One end of the rotating shaft 702 is tightly connected to the output shaft of the drive motor 701 via a coupling, ensuring the accuracy and stability of power transmission. The other end of the rotating shaft 702 is fixedly connected to the first synchronous pulley 703, realizing the transmission of power from the drive motor 701 to the rotating shaft 702. The drive motor 701 is a Siemens 1LE0 series three-phase asynchronous motor (specific model such as 1LE0001-1DA23-3FA4). This series of motors is designed specifically for industrial applications and features high reliability, high efficiency, and good speed regulation performance. Its rated power, speed, and torque parameters are precisely matched according to the rotational load and heating requirements of the preheating cylinder 2.
[0031] Siemens 1LE0 series motors employ advanced electromagnetic design and manufacturing processes, boasting high efficiency (typically exceeding 90%), significantly reducing energy consumption and operating costs. The motors feature a built-in high-efficiency cooling system, ensuring stable performance output during extended operation and further extending motor lifespan. This series supports variable frequency speed control, allowing for precise adjustment of the preheating cylinder speed to meet the needs of various heating processes. With a wide speed range and fast response, it can quickly adapt to changes in the production process, improving production efficiency.
[0032] One of the connecting shafts 4 has a fixed connection to the outer wall of the air outlet pipe 8, which is connected to the air passage 5. It also includes a one-way valve 9, which is connected to the outer wall of the air outlet pipe 8. The air outlet pipe 8 is used to discharge excess steam or air from the preheating cylinder 2 and maintain stable pressure inside the cylinder. In addition, the one-way valve 9 is connected to the outer wall of the air outlet pipe 8 to ensure that steam or air can only flow out in one direction, preventing external air from flowing back into the preheating cylinder 2 and affecting the heating effect.
[0033] Working Principle: During operation, the steam generator 601 produces high-temperature steam, which is pressurized by the pump body 602 and then delivered to the conveying pipe 603. The steam is then transmitted through the insulated conveying pipe 603 to the air rotary joint 604, and then enters the semi-circular cylinder 3 inside the preheating cylinder 2 through the air passage 5. Since the semi-circular cylinders 3 are arranged in a ring array around the inner wall of the preheating cylinder 2, the steam can evenly heat the raw paper. Simultaneously, the drive motor 701 starts, and through the transmission action of the rotating shaft 702, the first synchronous pulley 703, the synchronous belt 705, and the second synchronous pulley 704, the preheating cylinder 2 is driven to rotate slowly. This rotation not only helps the corrugated cardboard to be heated evenly in the preheating cylinder 2, but also facilitates the feeding and unloading of the raw paper. During the heating process, excess steam or air is discharged from the preheating cylinder 2 through the exhaust pipe 8, while the one-way valve 9 ensures the one-way nature of the exhaust. Through this series of working processes, the peripheral heating cylinder achieves efficient and uniform heating of the corrugated cardboard.
