Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of glass fiber production equipment, and in particular to a glass fiber drying device. Background Technology
[0002] Glass fiber is a high-performance inorganic non-metallic material with many varieties. Its advantages include good insulation, strong heat resistance, good corrosion resistance, and high mechanical strength. However, its disadvantages include brittleness and poor wear resistance. In the glass fiber production process, in order to remove the moisture in the raw fiber and make its moisture content reach the specified index, it is often necessary to use a drying device to dry the glass fiber.
[0003] However, existing glass fiber drying equipment still has certain defects in use. For example, the existing drying equipment does not have a deceleration mechanism, which results in a short contact time between the glass fiber and the heat medium, thus affecting the drying effect of the glass fiber and hindering its widespread use. Utility Model Content
[0004] This utility model provides a solution that is significantly different from existing technologies, addressing the problem that existing technologies are too simplistic. To overcome the aforementioned deficiencies of existing technologies, this utility model provides a glass fiber drying device, aiming to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides a glass fiber drying device, comprising: a box body, wherein the box body is provided with a material channel for glass fiber material to enter and exit the box body, and a heating component for drying the glass fiber material is connected to one side of the box body; and a deceleration component, wherein the deceleration component includes a mesh plate and a deceleration plate, wherein two mesh plates are arranged in parallel inside the box body, and the deceleration plate is located between the two mesh plates, and four sets of deceleration plates are arranged in parallel, and all four sets of deceleration plates have an "arrow" shaped structure.
[0006] The interior of the chamber is used for heating and drying glass fiber crystals. The glass fiber crystals enter and exit the chamber through a material channel. The heating element provides the necessary heat medium for drying the glass fiber crystals. The deceleration element slows down the descent of the glass fiber crystals inside the chamber, thus extending their contact time with the heat medium and improving the drying effect. The mesh plate design causes the material to repeatedly collide with the mesh strips or perforations as it passes through the mesh structure, converting kinetic energy into frictional heat and significantly reducing the falling speed. The design of four sets of deceleration plates forms a stepped buffer layer, requiring the material to continuously impact multiple deceleration plates, further extending the residence time of the material inside the chamber.
[0007] Preferably, the material channel includes a feed inlet and a discharge outlet, with the feed inlet pre-installed at the top of the box and the discharge outlet pre-installed at the bottom of the box.
[0008] The feed inlet is used to connect to an external feed pipe, and a valve is pre-installed on the feed pipe. A control gate is pre-installed at the discharge outlet. This technical method is common knowledge in the field, so it will not be described in detail.
[0009] Preferably, the box body has a double-layer insulation structure, and a support base is provided at the bottom of the box body, and a cavity is pre-set on the support base.
[0010] The double-layer insulation structure of the enclosure is common knowledge in this field, so it will not be described in detail. The enclosure and the support base are fixedly connected by columns. The pre-set cavity on the support base corresponds to the position of the discharge port.
[0011] Preferably, the heating assembly includes a hot air blower, a hot air duct, and a hot air hood. The hot air blower is located on one side of the housing, the first end of the hot air duct is mounted on the hot air blower, and the hot air hood is installed at the end of the hot air duct and is in contact with the outer surface of the housing.
[0012] The hot air blower uses a commercially available structure, and the generated heat medium enters the chamber through a heat medium channel formed by hot air ducts and a hot air hood to heat the glass fiber material. This heating and drying method uses conventional technology and will not be described in detail.
[0013] Preferably, it also includes a temperature monitoring component, which includes a housing and a temperature sensor. The housing is disposed on one side of the enclosure, and the temperature sensor is disposed inside the housing. There are one or more temperature sensors longitudinally distributed inside the housing.
[0014] The outer casing has pre-set clearance holes between its inner walls and the inner wall of the enclosure, allowing the sensing end of the temperature sensor to extend into the enclosure and detect the internal temperature. The design of multiple temperature sensors enables detection of different temperature zones within the enclosure, thus ensuring the accuracy of the internal temperature readings.
[0015] Preferably, it also includes a recycling component, which includes a return pipe, an air inlet, and an exhaust port. The return pipe is located on one side of the housing, the air inlet is located at the top of the return pipe and a feed inlet is pre-set on the outer surface of the air inlet, and the exhaust port is located at the bottom of the return pipe.
[0016] The air inlet is angled and located at the top of the housing, allowing residual heat medium inside the housing to enter the return pipe through the air inlet and then be discharged to the external recovery device through the exhaust port, thereby recovering and reusing the heat medium and demonstrating the environmental friendliness of this device.
[0017] Preferably, it also includes a conveying component, which is a conveyor belt located below the support.
[0018] The conveyor belt is arranged parallel to the support base, with its output end corresponding to the discharge port. This allows the dried glass fiber to fall into the upper part of the conveyor belt through the discharge port and be transported by the conveyor belt to the external storage device for centralized storage.
[0019] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0020] In use, the mesh plate design of this invention allows materials to repeatedly collide with the mesh strips or hole walls as they pass through the mesh structure, converting kinetic energy into frictional heat energy and significantly reducing the falling speed. At the same time, the design of four sets of deceleration plates forms a stepped buffer layer, requiring the material to continuously collide with multiple deceleration plates, thereby further extending the residence time of the material inside the chamber and thus extending its contact time with the heat medium. This improves the drying effect on glass fiber and facilitates its widespread use. Attached Figure Description

[0032] In this embodiment:
[0033] First, start the hot air blower 2 so that the heat medium generated by the hot air blower 2 enters the interior of the housing 1 through the hot air duct 201 and the hot air hood 202.
[0034] Secondly, the temperature inside the housing 1 is detected by the temperature sensor 501 inside the housing 5;

When the glass fiber enters the chamber 1, it passes through the slowing component formed by the mesh plate 3 and the deceleration plate 4, thereby extending the residence time of the material inside the chamber 1, thus extending its contact time with the heat medium, and thereby improving the drying effect on the glass fiber.
