Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of smoothing, and more specifically, it relates to the smoothing structure of a heat setting device for the production of soft, lightweight silk jacquard fabrics. Background Technology

[0002] Silk jacquard fabric is a high-end textile made from natural protein fiber—silk (usually mulberry silk)—through a complex jacquard process. Heat setting is a crucial step in the production of silk jacquard fabric. Heat setting involves heating the fabric at a specific temperature for a period of time, causing changes in the internal structure of its fibers, thereby improving the fabric's properties.

[0003] Existing fabric heat setting equipment generally includes a smoothing structure, a tensioning structure, and a heating structure. The smoothing structure removes wrinkles from the fabric, the tensioning structure maintains a certain tension during fabric transport and heating to prevent wrinkles, and the heating structure heat-sets the fabric. Existing smoothing structures generally use two rigid rollers to squeeze the fabric, applying uniform pressure to smooth it out. However, since most jacquard fabrics have raised patterns, using rigid rollers to squeeze silk jacquard fabrics may damage the raised patterns, thus affecting product quality.

[0004] Based on the above, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a smoothing structure for a heat setting device used in the production of soft and lightweight silk jacquard fabrics, so as to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0005] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, the purpose of this invention is to provide a smoothing structure for a heat-setting device used in the production of soft and lightweight silk jacquard fabrics. This invention involves setting several drive rods on an installation tube, and then sliding push rods and push plates on the drive rods. Springs are also installed on the push rods, so that the push plates have a certain elasticity when squeezing the fabric, thus preventing excessive pressure on the raised patterns on the fabric and reducing the possibility of damage to the raised patterns.

[0006] The above-mentioned technical objective of this utility model is achieved through the following technical solution: a smoothing structure for a heat setting device for producing soft and lightweight silk jacquard fabric, comprising a support frame, an mounting tube and a support roller rotatably connected to the support frame, a plurality of drive rods slidably connected to the mounting tube, a pushing mechanism for driving the drive rods on both sides of the mounting tube to move to both sides on the support frame, a push rod slidably connected to the drive rod, a push plate fixedly connected to the side of the push rod away from the drive tube, a spring sleeved on the push rod, the two ends of the spring abutting against the drive rod and the push plate respectively, and a drive mechanism for driving the mounting tube to rotate on the support frame.

[0007] By adopting the above technical solution, the smoothing mechanism is installed in a suitable position on the heat setting equipment, and the fabric passes between the mounting tube and the support roller. During the heat setting process, the mounting tube is driven to rotate by the drive mechanism. During this process, several push plates will press down on the fabric under the action of springs. Due to the buffering effect of the springs, the pressure of the push plates on the fabric has a certain elasticity, which will not apply too much pressure to the raised patterns on the fabric, reducing the possibility of damage to the raised patterns. Furthermore, during the rotation of the mounting tube, the mounting rod will move to both sides under the action of the pushing mechanism, further applying tension to the fabric in the lateral direction, and further improving the smoothing effect of the fabric.

[0008] The present invention is further configured such that: the pushing mechanism includes a driving roller fixedly connected to the support frame, the driving roller passes through the cavity in the middle of the mounting tube, the driving roller is provided with a plurality of driving grooves for the driving rod to be inserted and moved, the driving grooves are annular, and a pushing groove for driving the driving rod to move outward is provided on the side of the driving groove near the support roller, the pushing grooves on both sides of the driving roller face opposite directions, and the size of the pushing grooves on both sides of the driving roller gradually increases.

[0009] The present invention is further configured such that: the mounting tube includes two mounting rings, and a plurality of mounting strips are fixedly connected between the two mounting rings on both sides; a sliding groove is provided between two adjacent mounting strips for inserting and moving the drive rod; both sides of the drive rod are provided with insertion parts, and a limiting groove is provided on the sliding groove for inserting and moving the insertion parts.

[0010] The present invention is further configured such that: a limiting rod is fixedly connected to the push rod, and a moving groove is provided on the drive rod for the push rod and the limiting rod to move.

[0011] The present invention is further configured such that: the driving mechanism includes a motor fixedly connected to the support frame, and the output shaft of the motor and the mounting ring are both provided with pulleys, and a transmission belt is sleeved between the pulleys on both sides.

[0012] In summary, this utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0013] This invention features several drive rods mounted on an installation tube, with push rods and push plates slidably mounted on the drive rods. A spring is also installed on the push rod, allowing the push plate to have a certain elasticity when squeezing the fabric. This prevents excessive pressure on raised patterns on the fabric, reducing the possibility of damage. Furthermore, during the rotation of the installation tube, the installation rods move to both sides under the action of the pushing mechanism, further applying tension to the fabric in the lateral direction and enhancing the smoothing effect.

[0025] The present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0026] A smoothing structure for a heat-setting device used in the production of soft, lightweight silk jacquard fabrics, such as Figure 1-5 As shown, it includes a support frame 1, on which an installation tube 2 and a support roller 3 are rotatably connected. Several drive rods 4 are slidably connected to the installation tube 2. The support frame 1 is provided with a pushing mechanism that drives the drive rods 4 on both sides of the installation tube 2 to move to both sides. A push rod 5 is slidably connected to the drive rod 4. A push plate 6 is fixedly connected to the side of the push rod 5 away from the drive tube. A spring 7 is sleeved on the push rod 5. The two ends of the spring 7 are fixedly connected to the drive rod 4 and the push plate 6, respectively. The support frame 1 is provided with a drive mechanism that drives the installation tube 2 to rotate.

[0027] Furthermore, the pushing mechanism includes a drive roller 8 fixedly connected to the support frame 1. The drive roller 8 passes through the cavity in the middle of the mounting tube 2. The drive roller 8 is provided with a number of drive grooves 9 for the drive rod 4 to be inserted and moved. The drive grooves 9 are annular. On the side of the drive groove 9 near the support roller, there is a pushing groove 10 for driving the drive rod 4 to move outward. The pushing grooves 10 on both sides of the drive roller 8 face opposite directions. The size of the pushing grooves 10 on both sides of the drive roller 8 gradually increases from the center to both sides.

[0028] Furthermore, the mounting tube 2 includes two mounting rings 11, and several mounting strips 12 are fixedly connected between the two mounting rings 11. A sliding groove is provided between two adjacent mounting strips 12 for the drive rod 4 to be inserted and moved. Both sides of the drive rod 4 are provided with insertion parts 13, and the sliding groove is provided with limiting grooves for the insertion parts 13 to be inserted and moved.

[0029] Furthermore, a limiting rod 14 is fixedly connected to the push rod 5, and a moving groove 15 is provided on the drive rod 4 for the push rod 5 and the limiting rod 14 to move.

[0030] Furthermore, the drive mechanism includes a motor 16 fixedly connected to the support frame 1. The output shaft of the motor 16 and the mounting ring 11 are both fixedly connected to pulleys 17, and a transmission belt 18 is sleeved between the two pulleys 17.

[0031] Working principle: The smoothing mechanism is installed in a suitable position on the heat setting equipment, and the fabric passes between the mounting tube 2 and the support roller 3. During the heat setting process, the mounting tube 2 is driven to rotate by the motor 16, pulley 17 and transmission belt 18. During this process, several push plates 6 will apply pressure to the fabric under the action of spring 7, so that the fabric can be stretched. Due to the buffering effect of spring 7, the downward pressure of the push plates 6 on the fabric has a certain elastic variable, which will not apply too much rigid pressure to the raised patterns on the fabric, reducing the possibility of damage to the raised patterns.

[0032] Furthermore, during the rotation of the mounting tube 2, the drive rod will move along the trajectory of the drive groove 9. When the drive rod moves between the mounting tube 2 and the support roller, and the corresponding push plate 6 contacts the fabric, the drive rod moves into the push groove 10. At this time, the drive rods on both sides of the mounting tube 2 will move slightly to both sides under the guidance of the drive groove 9, thereby driving the push plate 6 to apply a pulling force to both sides of the fabric in the lateral direction, further improving the smoothing effect of the fabric.

[0033] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model. The protection scope of this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. All technical solutions falling within the scope of this utility model's concept are protected. It should be noted that for those skilled in the art, any improvements and modifications made without departing from the principle of this utility model should also be considered within the protection scope of this utility model.
