Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of glass fiber forming equipment technology, and more particularly to a forming apparatus. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, glass fiber is mostly produced using the tank furnace method, and its main forming process includes melting, fiber drawing, fiber stretching, coating, drying, and winding. In large-scale tank furnace fiber stretching production, a long production line (double-layer layout) is typically used. The melting tank furnace, spinneret, and fiber bundle splitting device are located on the upper floor, while the fiber feeder and fiber stretching machine are located on the lower floor. A fiber bundle channel connects the two floors. However, the opening of this fiber bundle channel is too large, posing certain safety hazards; furthermore, the noise generated by the high-speed fiber stretching machine on the lower floor can be transmitted to the upper floor, causing noise pollution. Utility Model Content

[0003] To address the aforementioned technical problems, this application provides a molding apparatus that can reduce the opening size of the material channel, thereby reducing safety hazards and noise from upper floors.

[0004] This application provides a molding device, which is disposed between an upper floor and a lower floor for connecting the upper floor and the lower floor. The molding device includes:

[0005] The first housing includes a first cavity that extends vertically.

[0006] A first baffle, with its first end disposed on the top of the first housing and its second end disposed obliquely downward in the first cavity;

[0007] The second baffle has a first end disposed on the top of the first box body and a second end disposed at an angle downward in the first cavity; the second baffle is disposed opposite to the first baffle, and a material channel is provided between the second end of the first baffle and the second end of the second baffle, the width of the material channel being smaller than the width of the first cavity.

[0008] In some embodiments of this application, both the first baffle and the second baffle are provided with multiple ventilation holes.

[0009] In some embodiments of this application, the first baffle and / or the second baffle are provided with wire hanging holes.

[0010] In some embodiments of this application, the molding apparatus further includes an adjustment mechanism connected to the first baffle and / or the second baffle. The adjustment mechanism adjusts the width of the material channel by driving the first baffle and / or the second baffle to move.

[0011] In some embodiments of this application, the adjusting mechanism includes at least one first connecting portion disposed on one side of the second baffle and a drive rod connected to at least one of the first connecting portions, wherein the first connecting portion includes:

[0012] A first connecting rod, the first end of which is connected to the first end of the second baffle;

[0013] A first connecting plate, the first end of which is connected to the second end of the first connecting rod;

[0014] The second connecting plate has its first end rotatably connected to the second end of the first connecting plate.

[0015] The bottom of the drive rod is rotatably connected to the second end of the second connecting plate. The movement of the drive rod causes the second connecting plate to rotate, which in turn causes the first connecting plate to move in the horizontal direction, thereby causing the first connecting rod to move, and thus causing the second end of the second baffle to rotate through the first connecting rod.

[0016] In some embodiments of this application, a limiting structure is provided on the first housing, and the driving rod is disposed in the limiting structure to limit the displacement of the driving rod.

[0017] In some embodiments of this application, the limiting structure includes a first limiting groove, a second limiting groove, and a third limiting groove connected in sequence. The first limiting groove and the third limiting groove are parallel. The driving rod moves in the first limiting groove, the second limiting groove, and the third limiting groove to adjust the width of the material channel.

[0018] In some embodiments of this application, the molding device further includes a second housing, the second housing including a second cavity that extends vertically, and the second cavity is connected to the material channel.

[0019] In some embodiments of this application, the second enclosure includes a first enclosure structure and a second enclosure structure, wherein the first enclosure structure and the second enclosure structure are arranged at an angle.

[0020] In some embodiments of this application, the molding apparatus further includes:

[0021] The third baffle has a first end disposed on the top of the first housing and a second end disposed obliquely downward in the first cavity.

[0022] The fourth baffle has its first end disposed on the top of the first housing and its second end disposed obliquely downward in the first cavity.

[0023] The first baffle, the second baffle, the third baffle, and the fourth baffle together form the material channel.

[0024] The technical solution provided in this application may include the following beneficial effects:

[0025] This application uses a first baffle and a second baffle that are inclined downwards, with the distance between the second ends of the first baffle and the second baffle serving as a material channel. The width of the material channel is smaller than the width of the first cavity, which can reduce the opening size of the molding device, preventing debris from the upper floor from falling to the lower floor, thereby reducing damage to the glass fiber filaments and avoiding product quality issues caused by filament fuzzing or breakage. Furthermore, reducing the material channel of the molding device can also reduce the risk of workers on the upper floor falling to the lower floor, thus reducing safety hazards and ensuring the personal safety of workers. In addition, by reducing the material channel, some noise can also be isolated, reducing noise pollution caused by equipment on the lower floor to the upper floor.

[0034] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this application clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application. It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features in the embodiments of this application can be arbitrarily combined with each other.

[0035] An exemplary embodiment of this application provides a molding apparatus disposed between an upper floor and a lower floor for connecting the upper and lower floors. The molding apparatus includes a first housing, a first baffle, and a second baffle. The first housing includes a first cavity that extends vertically. A first end of the first baffle is disposed at the top of the first housing, and a second end of the first baffle is disposed inclined downward in the first cavity. A first end of the second baffle is disposed at the top of the first housing, and a second end of the second baffle is disposed inclined downward in the first cavity. The second baffle is disposed opposite to the first baffle, and a material channel is formed between the second ends of the first baffle and the second end of the second baffle. The width of the material channel is smaller than the width of the first cavity. By using a first and second baffle that are tilted downwards, and using the gap between the second ends of the first and second baffles as a material channel, the width of the material channel is smaller than the width of the first cavity. This reduces the opening size of the molding device, preventing debris from the upper floor from falling to the lower floor, thus reducing damage to the material (such as glass fiber filaments) and avoiding product quality issues caused by filament fuzzing or breakage. Furthermore, reducing the material channel of the molding device also reduces the risk of workers on the upper floor falling to the lower floor, thereby reducing safety hazards and ensuring the personal safety of workers. In addition, reducing the material channel can also isolate some noise, reducing noise pollution caused by equipment on the lower floor to the upper floor.

[0036] The specific embodiments described below are intended to help those skilled in the art understand this embodiment, but this embodiment is not limited to the specific embodiments described below.

[0037] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, an exemplary embodiment of this application provides a molding device. The molding device is disposed between an upper floor and a lower floor for connecting the upper floor and the lower floor. The molding device includes a first housing 1, a first baffle 2, and a second baffle 3. The first housing 1 includes a first cavity 11 that extends vertically. The first end of the first baffle 2 is disposed at the top of the first housing 1, and the second end of the first baffle 2 is disposed at an angle downward in the first cavity 11. The first end of the second baffle 3 is disposed at the top of the first housing 1, and the second end of the second baffle 3 is disposed at an angle downward in the first cavity 11. The second baffle 3 is disposed opposite to the first baffle 2, and a material channel 4 is provided between the second end of the first baffle 2 and the second end of the second baffle 3. The width of the material channel 4 is smaller than the width of the first cavity 11.

[0038] In this embodiment, the first baffle 2 and the second baffle 3 are inclined downwards, and the distance between the second end of the first baffle 2 and the second end of the second baffle 3 serves as the material channel 4. The width of the material channel 4 is smaller than the width of the first cavity 11, which reduces the opening size of the molding device, preventing debris from the upper floor from falling to the lower floor, thereby reducing damage to the material (e.g., glass fiber filaments) and preventing product quality from being affected by fuzzing or breakage of the filaments. Furthermore, reducing the size of the material channel 4 of the molding device also reduces the risk of workers on the upper floor falling to the lower floor, thus reducing safety hazards and ensuring the personal safety of workers. In addition, reducing the size of the material channel 4 can also isolate some noise, reducing noise pollution caused by equipment on the lower floor to the upper floor. In this embodiment, when the material is glass fiber filaments, the material channel 4 can be a fiber bundle channel.

[0039] In one embodiment, both the first baffle 2 and the second baffle 3 are provided with a plurality of ventilation holes 21.

[0040] In this embodiment, multiple ventilation holes 21 are provided on the first baffle 2 and the second baffle 3 to ensure airflow and improve the wire drawing forming conditions. Furthermore, by providing multiple ventilation holes 21, a stable forming airflow can be formed, indirectly changing the airflow in the wire drawing forming area, thereby reducing power consumption.

[0041] In one embodiment, the first baffle 2 and / or the second baffle 3 are provided with wire hanging holes 22.

[0042] In this embodiment, by providing wire hanging holes 22 on the first baffle 2 and / or the second baffle 3, two channels can be formed. When producing glass fiber filaments, glass fiber filaments that meet the product quality requirements can pass through the material channel 4, while glass fiber filaments with broken wires or impurities can pass through the wire hanging holes 22, which helps to improve product quality.

[0043] In one embodiment, the molding apparatus further includes an adjustment mechanism 5, which is connected to the first baffle 2 and / or the second baffle 3. The adjustment mechanism 5 adjusts the width of the material channel 4 by driving the first baffle 2 and / or the second baffle 3 to move.

[0044] The glass fiber forming process includes steps such as melting, fiber drawing, fiber stretching, coating treatment, drying, and winding. Fiber drawing and fiber stretching are distinct processes. Fiber drawing is the initial stage of glass fiber production, its main purpose being to draw molten glass into continuous glass fiber filaments through a spinneret. Fiber stretching, on the other hand, involves further adjusting the fiber diameter, surface treatment, and winding into yarn based on fiber drawing. Therefore, the fiber flow angle needs to be adjusted during both fiber drawing and stretching. In this embodiment, the adjusting mechanism 5 drives the first baffle 2 and / or the second baffle 3 to move, thereby adjusting the width of the material channel 4 to suit different processing steps.

[0045] The adjusting mechanism 5 can drive either the first baffle 2 or the second baffle 3 to move, thereby adjusting the width of the material channel 4. The adjusting mechanism 5 can also simultaneously drive the first baffle 2 and the second baffle 3 to move, thereby simultaneously adjusting their positions.

[0046] In one embodiment, such as Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the adjustment mechanism 5 includes at least one first connecting part 51 disposed on one side of the second baffle 3 and a drive rod 52 connected to at least one first connecting part 51. The first connecting part 51 includes a first connecting rod 511, a first connecting plate 512 and a second connecting plate 513. The first end of the first connecting rod 511 is connected to the first end of the second baffle 3; the first end of the first connecting plate 512 is connected to the second end of the first connecting rod 511; the first end of the second connecting plate 513 is rotatably connected to the second end of the first connecting plate 512; the bottom of the drive rod 52 is rotatably connected to the second end of the second connecting plate 513. By moving the drive rod 52, the second connecting plate 513 is rotated, which in turn drives the first connecting plate 512 to move in the horizontal direction, thereby driving the first connecting rod 511 to move, and thus the second end of the second baffle 3 is rotated through the first connecting rod 511.

[0047] In this embodiment, by driving the top of the drive rod 52 to move, the bottom of the drive rod 52 rotates around the first housing 1, thereby driving the second connecting plate 513 to rotate, which in turn drives the first connecting plate 512 to move in the horizontal direction, thereby driving the first connecting rod 511 to move, and thus the second end of the second baffle 3 rotates around the first end of the second baffle 3 through the first connecting rod 511.

[0048] The first end of the second baffle 3 is connected to the first housing 1 via a hinge; the first end of the first connecting rod 511 is rotatably connected to the first end of the second baffle 3, and the second end of the first connecting rod 511 is rotatably connected to the first end of the first connecting plate 512. The first connecting part 51 also includes a first support plate 514 disposed on the first housing 1. The first support plate 514 can support and limit the first connecting plate 512, preventing the first connecting plate 512 from displacing in the vertical direction.

[0049] In this embodiment, the first connecting part 51 and the driving rod 52 can be provided as one or two. For example, in order to improve the stability of the movement of the second baffle 3, the first connecting part 51 can be provided as two, and the two first connecting parts 51 are respectively provided on both sides of the second baffle 3. For ease of operation, the driving rod 52 can be provided as one, and the two first connecting rods 511 can be connected by a transmission structure (e.g., a connecting rod). When the driving rod 52 drives the first connecting part 51 located on one side of the second baffle 3 to move, it can drive the first connecting part 51 located on the other side of the second baffle 3 to move, so as to realize the second baffle 3 rotating around its first end.

[0050] In one embodiment, the adjusting mechanism 5 further includes at least one second connecting portion 53 disposed on one side of the first baffle 2. The second connecting portion 53 includes a second connecting rod, a third connecting plate, a fourth connecting plate, a third connecting rod, and a second support plate. The first end of the second connecting rod is rotatably connected to the first end of the first baffle 2. The first end of the third connecting plate is rotatably connected to the second end of the second connecting rod. The first end of the second connecting plate 513 is rotatably connected to the second end of the fourth connecting plate. The second connecting plate 513 is connected to the first connecting plate 512 through the first end of the third connecting rod, and the third connecting plate is connected to the fourth connecting plate through the second end of the third connecting rod. The second support plate is disposed on the first housing 1 to support the third connecting plate and limit its displacement in the vertical direction.

[0051] In this embodiment, when the drive rod 52 drives the first connecting part 51 to move, it can drive the second connecting part 53 to move at the same time, so that the second ends of the first baffle 2 and the second baffle 3 rotate at the same time, thereby adjusting the width of the material channel 4.

[0052] In one embodiment, a limiting structure 12 is provided on the first housing 1, and the drive rod 52 is disposed in the limiting structure 12 to limit the displacement of the drive rod 52.

[0053] In this embodiment, by setting a limiting structure 12 on the first housing 1, the displacement of the drive rod 52 can be limited, so as to adjust the width of the material channel 4.

[0054] In one embodiment, the limiting structure 12 includes a first limiting groove 121, a second limiting groove 122 and a third limiting groove 123 connected in sequence. The first limiting groove 121 and the third limiting groove 123 are parallel. The drive rod 52 moves in the first limiting groove 121, the second limiting groove 122 and the third limiting groove 123 to adjust the width of the material channel 4.

[0055] In this embodiment, the drive rod 52 passes through the limiting structure 12, with the top of the drive rod 52 positioned above the limiting structure 12 and the bottom of the drive rod 52 positioned below the limiting structure 12. Furthermore, the drive rod 52 can move within the first limiting groove 121, the second limiting groove 122, and the third limiting groove 123. By adjusting the moving position of the drive rod 52, the width of the material channel 4 can be adjusted.

[0056] In one embodiment, the molding device further includes a second housing 6, which includes a second cavity that extends vertically and is connected to the material channel 4.

[0057] In this embodiment, by setting up a second box 6, it can serve to connect the upper floor and the lower floor.

[0058] In one embodiment, the second enclosure 6 includes a first enclosure structure 61 and a second enclosure structure 62, which are arranged at an angle to each other.

[0059] In this embodiment, both the first baffle 2 and the second baffle 3 are inclined downwards, and the inclination angle of the first baffle 2 is greater than that of the second baffle 3. This arrangement ensures that the material channel 4 is located at the end of the first cavity 11 near the second baffle 3. At this time, the first enclosure structure 61 and the second enclosure structure 62 are set at an angle, so that the outlet end of the second cavity of the second housing 6 is located near the end of the second baffle 3. That is, the outlet end of the second cavity can be located directly below the material channel 4, allowing material to pass smoothly through the material channel 4 and the outlet end of the second cavity. Both the first enclosure structure 61 and the second enclosure structure 62 can be formed by four enclosure plates.

[0060] In one embodiment, such as Figure 2As shown, the molding device also includes a third baffle 7 and a fourth baffle 8. The first end of the third baffle 7 is disposed at the top of the first housing 1, and the second end of the third baffle 7 is disposed at an angle downward in the first cavity 11. The first end of the fourth baffle 8 is disposed at the top of the first housing 1, and the second end of the fourth baffle 8 is disposed at an angle downward in the first cavity 11. The first baffle 2, the second baffle 3, the third baffle 7, and the fourth baffle 8 enclose and form a material channel 4.

[0061] In this embodiment, the third baffle 7 and the fourth baffle 8 are arranged opposite to each other. The first baffle 2, the second baffle 3, the third baffle 7 and the fourth baffle 8 can be used to enclose and form the material channel 4, thereby reducing the opening size of the material channel 4 and reducing safety hazards and noise from the upper floors.
