Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of electrospinning technology, and in particular to a pilot-scale electrospinning device. Background Technology
[0002] Electrospinning is a method for preparing micro- and nano-sized fibers by stretching a polymer solution into micro- and nano-sized fibers under the influence of a high-voltage electric field. This technology has broad application prospects in fields such as filtration materials, biomedicine, and energy storage. Research on electrospinning processes first proceeds to a laboratory stage, where small-scale experiments are conducted to optimize process parameters such as voltage, solution concentration, flow rate, temperature, and humidity to obtain ideal fiber morphology and properties before scaling up to large-scale industrial production. Furthermore, a transitional phase of small-batch production trials is typically required between small-scale laboratory experiments and large-scale industrial production to verify the stability of the production process and the product yield. This phase is crucial for identifying potential problems, adjusting production parameters, and optimizing equipment configuration, effectively reducing the risks and costs of large-scale production.
[0003] However, existing technologies lack dedicated equipment for small-batch production trials of electrospinning. Laboratory equipment typically has low output and limited functionality, failing to meet the continuity and stability requirements of small-batch production. Large-scale industrial equipment, on the other hand, suffers from high investment costs and insufficient flexibility, making it unsuitable for direct use in small-batch process verification. Furthermore, using large-scale equipment for small-batch trials would disrupt normal production. Therefore, those skilled in the art desire a pilot-scale electrospinning device that allows researchers to conduct small-batch production trials between laboratory studies and industrial-scale production, providing reliable support for the large-scale application of electrospinning technology.

Under this pressure, the spinning solution enters the discharge pipe, supply port 512, and supply pipe 52, and is supplied to the nozzle device 2 for spinning. The weighing module 54 can weigh the storage tank 51 and the spinning solution within it, thus determining the solution supply rate and the remaining amount of spinning solution in the storage tank 51.

The temperature control device includes a heating device, which is located in the working space and can heat the air in the working space.
[0063] The humidity control device 6 draws air back from the working space through the return air vent 132. After humidity control treatment (either humidification or dehumidification based on humidity levels), the air is then returned to the working space through the air inlet 131. This cycle maintains the air in the working space at a relatively constant humidity level. Circulating the air in the working space also reduces the processing load of the humidity control device 6, thus reducing energy consumption. The humidity control device 6 can use an existing humidity generator. The heating device heats the air in the working space, maintaining it at a relatively constant temperature. The heating device can use electric heating wire or infrared heating.
