Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of unwinding technology, specifically to a carbon fiber unwinding device. Background Technology

[0002] Carbon fiber filaments are microcrystalline graphite materials obtained by carbonizing and graphitizing organic fibers (such as polyacrylonitrile fibers, pitch fibers, viscose fibers, etc.) at high temperatures. Their carbon content is usually above 90%, and their diameter is generally 5 to 10 micrometers, which is equivalent to one-tenth to one-twelfth the thickness of a human hair.

[0003] The carbon fiber unwinding device is a key piece of equipment in the manufacturing process of carbon fiber composite materials. Its core function is to realize the automated and high-precision unwinding of carbon fiber filaments or rolls, while ensuring that the fiber tension is constant and the path is accurate during the unwinding process, so as to meet the stringent requirements of high-end manufacturing fields for material performance.

[0004] For example, patent CN221662234U discloses a carbon fiber unwinding device. This patent uses a motor to drive the active roller to rotate, which facilitates the cooperation between the active roller and multiple driven rollers, multiple pressure shaft components, etc., thereby facilitating the unwinding of multiple carbon fiber bundles and improving work efficiency.

[0005] In actual use, the pay-off roller is usually controlled by a drive mechanism such as a motor. However, in abnormal situations, it cannot be stopped in a short time, resulting in excessive tension fluctuations, which may cause problems such as yarn breakage. This leads to an increase in defective products, requiring rework or scrapping, thus increasing production costs.

[0006] Therefore, it is necessary to provide a carbon fiber unwinding device to solve the above problems.

[0007] It should be noted that the information disclosed in this background section is only for understanding the background technology of this application concept, and therefore may include information that does not constitute prior art. Summary of the Invention

Detailed Implementation

[0035] It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described in this application can be combined with each other. This application will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0036] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the present application, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present application, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort should fall within the scope of protection of the present application.

[0037] like Figures 1-2As shown, this application provides a carbon fiber unwinding device, which is mainly installed inside the factory and is used to unwind carbon fiber filaments so that they can enter the carbonization furnace for subsequent processing. Specifically, the unwinding device includes a support 1 and an unwinding mechanism 2 disposed inside the support 1. The unwinding mechanism 2 includes a rotating shaft 20 rotatably disposed inside the support 1, and a rotating roller 22 is fixedly disposed on the rotating shaft 20. The rotating roller 22 is used to wind carbon fiber filaments.

[0038] Furthermore, a first motor 21 is fixedly installed inside the bracket 1. The output end of the first motor 21 passes through the bracket 1 and is fixedly connected to the rotating shaft 20. Thus, starting the first motor 21 can drive the rotating roller 22 to rotate between the brackets 1, so that when the rotating roller 22 rotates, the carbon fiber filaments wound on the rotating roller 22 can be unwound.

[0039] like Figures 1-4 As shown, a mounting plate 6 is fixedly installed on the upper end of the bracket 1, and a cover 3 is fixedly installed on the mounting plate 6. In order to tension the carbon fiber filaments during the unwinding process, a tensioning mechanism 4 is provided on the cover 3. The tensioning mechanism 4 has a tensioning wheel 46, which allows the carbon fiber filaments to pass through. Thus, after the carbon fiber filaments are released from the rotating roller 22, they can be conveyed through the tensioning wheel 46. By adjusting the tensioning wheel 46, the purpose of tensioning the carbon fiber filaments can be achieved.

[0040] The tensioning mechanism 4 also includes a fixed frame 41 fixedly mounted on the upper end of the mounting plate 6, and a second motor 42 fixedly mounted on the fixed frame 41. The output end of the second motor 42 passes through the fixed frame 41 and is fixedly connected to a movable rod 45. A through hole 40 is provided on one side of the cover 3, and the other end of the movable rod 45 extends through the through hole 40 to the other end. Thus, starting the second motor 42 can drive the movable rod 45 to move along the through hole 40.

[0041] Furthermore, the other end of the movable rod 45 is rotatably connected to the tension wheel 46, so that when the carbon fiber filament passes through the tension wheel 46, the movable rod 45 can be moved along the through hole 40 by starting the second motor 42, so as to achieve the effect of adjusting the tension of the carbon fiber filament.

[0042] Meanwhile, a guide wheel 47 is fixedly installed on the upper side of the cover 3. The guide wheel 47 also allows carbon fiber filaments to pass through, so that after the carbon fiber filaments pass through the tension wheel 46, they can be transported to other components through the guide wheel 47.

[0043] like Figures 1-3As shown, in order to prevent the tension from fluctuating too much and causing the filament to break due to the inability to stop in a short time under abnormal conditions, a stopping mechanism 5 is provided on one side of the bracket 1. The stopping mechanism 5 includes multiple sets of hydraulic cylinders 50 fixedly installed inside the cover 3, and a control rod 51 is fixedly installed at the output end of the hydraulic cylinder 50. The control rod 51 passes through the bracket 1 and extends to the lower end of the bracket 1, so that starting the hydraulic cylinder 50 can drive the control rod 51 to move vertically up and down.

[0044] Meanwhile, a movable lever 52 is hinged to one side of the bracket 1, and the other end of the movable lever 52 is hinged to the control rod 51, so that the hydraulic cylinder 50 can be activated by the control rod 51 to drive the movable lever 52 to rotate around one side of the bracket 1.

[0045] Furthermore, a turntable 54 is fixedly installed at one end of the rotating shaft 20 through the bracket 1, and a locking block 53 is fixedly installed on the movable lever 52. One end of the locking block 53 is attached to the lower end of the turntable 54 so that the turntable 54 can be stopped when one end of the locking block 53 is attached to the lower end of the turntable 54.

[0046] In case of an abnormal situation, the hydraulic cylinder 50 can be activated to drive the movable lever 52 to rotate around one side of the bracket 1 through the control lever 51 until one end of the locking block 53 is in contact with the lower end of the turntable 54. The turntable 54 can then be buffered by the locking block 53, thereby slowing down the rotation speed of the rotating roller 22 to a certain extent, and thus stopping the unwinding for a short time.

[0047] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this application and is not intended to limit this application. Various modifications and variations can be made to this application by those skilled in the art. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this application should be included within the protection scope of this application.
