Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of mold head flow guiding technology, and more specifically to a curtain-type mold head flow guiding bracket. Background Technology

[0002] In the coating industry, the fluid at both ends of the curtain-type coating head exhibits instability during operation. The applicant's previous application, application number 202421799398.5, entitled "A Utility Model Application for a Curtain-Type Die Head Flow Guiding Mechanism," designed an adjustable flow guide channel and a receiving channel. The flow guide channel guides the fluid to the product edge, ensuring neat and orderly edge finishing, while the receiving channel collects the fluid from the outer edge for reuse. The receiving channel has an outlet at its bottom for fluid outflow and recycling. However, the connection and arrangement of the outlet with the external pipeline are not optimized. To avoid obstructing the product below, the outlet is positioned towards the front of the main support. When connecting to the pipeline, the pipeline extends forward, occupying frontal space. When the pipeline extends upward to the curtain-type die head, it obstructs the flow guide support, making it difficult for operators to observe its operation. Furthermore, the adjustment structures for both the guide frame and the main support are located in front of the main support, interfering with the adjustment of the guide frame's position. Utility Model Content

[0003] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a curtain-type mold head guide bracket. By optimizing the position of the discharge port and connecting it with the pipeline, the pipeline can flow in an orderly manner without obstructing the space in front, making it convenient to observe and adjust the bracket.

[0005] As an improvement, the discharge port is set horizontally.

[0006] As an improvement, the upper tank includes a large funnel section and a small funnel section connected from top to bottom. The large funnel section covers a large area to receive the falling fluid, while the small funnel section is smaller in size to concentrate the fluid.

[0007] As an improvement, the upper tank also includes a guide chute extending from the outside of the large funnel section.

[0008] As an improvement, a valve is installed on the discharge port or hose to control the flow of fluid.

[0016] Figure 4 This is a front view of the flow guide bracket of this utility model when it is arranged on both sides of the curtain-type mold head. Detailed Implementation

[0017] The specific embodiments of this utility model are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0018] like Figure 1 , 2 Figures 3 and 4 show a specific embodiment of the curtain-type mold head guide bracket of this utility model. This embodiment includes a main bracket 1, a receiving groove 2 is provided on the upper part of the main bracket 1, and a guide edge assembly 3 is provided on the inner side of the main bracket 1. The main bracket 1 is horizontally movable on the side of the curtain-type mold head. The receiving groove 2 includes an upper groove 21 and a lower groove 22 connected from top to bottom. The upper groove 21 is funnel-shaped to concentrate the fluid flow to the lower groove 22. The lower groove 22 has a curved section 221 that bends outward toward the main bracket 1. The far end of the curved section 221 is a discharge port 222, which connects to a hose 4 for outward circulation of the fluid.

[0019] In use, this utility model involves installing two sets of flow guide brackets on both sides of the curtain-type mold head. The guide edge assembly 3 corresponds to the edge-gathering position for edge gathering. The specific structure and usage method can be found in the prior patent technology mentioned in the applicant's background art. The fluid falling from the curtain-type mold head relative to the outer side of the guide edge assembly 3 is received and collected by the outer receiving groove 2. As an optimization and improvement of the structure, the receiving groove 2 is further configured as an upper groove 21 and a lower groove 22. The funnel shape of the upper groove 21 forms a contraction state with a larger opening at the top and a smaller opening at the bottom, which facilitates a wider coverage of the upper space for fluid reception. The received fluid flows along the upper groove 21 to the lower groove 22. The curved section 221 of the lower groove 22 guides the fluid to the outer outlet 222 on the opposite side. Structurally, this reduces the front and rear thickness of the flow guide bracket, making the space occupied by the flow guide bracket in the front and rear direction smaller. The outward-extending discharge port 222 connects to the flexible hose 4. The flexible hose 4 runs outward and connects upward to the pump body 5. The pump body 5 then powers the fluid to recirculate it back to the curtain die head. The flexible hose 4 is designed to adapt to changes in position by deforming during adjustments to the guide bracket. This arrangement eliminates the need for obstruction of space in front, allowing staff to easily observe the guide bracket's operation and to facilitate adjustments to the guide edge assembly 3 and the main support 1.

[0020] As an improved specific implementation, the discharge port 222 is set horizontally.

[0021] like Figure 1 , 2 As shown, the horizontally positioned discharge port 222 is more convenient for parts processing, and when connected to the hose 4, it facilitates the hose 4 to run horizontally outward, reducing the obstruction of the upper and lower positions.

[0022] As an improved specific implementation, the upper tank 21 includes a large funnel section 211 and a small funnel section 212 connected from top to bottom. The large funnel section 211 covers a large area to receive the falling fluid, while the small funnel section 212 is smaller in size to concentrate the fluid.

[0023] like Figure 1 , 2 As shown, the large funnel section 211 has a wide coverage area, which is conducive to the complete collection of fluid. After the fluid flows down to the small funnel section 212, the size is greatly reduced. On the one hand, this reduces the obstruction of the small funnel section 212 on the external main support 1, and thus reduces the obstruction of the guide edge assembly 3 position adjustment component, which is conducive to the operation and maintenance of the staff. On the other hand, it is conducive to the accumulation of fluid, and then flows down the small funnel section 212 to the lower tank 22.

[0024] As an improved specific implementation, the upper tank 21 also includes a guide trough 213 extending from the outside of the large funnel section 211.

[0025] like Figure 1 , 3 As shown, the guide trough 213 expands the coverage of the large funnel section 211 extending outward, thereby achieving a wider coverage of the curtain-type mold head and thus receiving the fluid.

[0026] As an improved specific implementation, a valve for controlling the flow of fluid is provided on the discharge port 222 or the hose 4.

[0027] The above implementation method is not shown in the figure. The valve can be implemented using existing technology. It is used to collect a certain amount of fluid in the material tank 2, and then, by opening the valve and relying on the pump body 5 connected to the pipeline, the fluid is concentrated and transported to the curtain die head for recycling. This intermittent collection and transportation is beneficial for the orderly one-time transportation of fluid and reduces the energy consumption of the equipment.

[0028] As an improved specific implementation, the outer side of the main bracket 1 is provided with a slot 11 for the detachable locking of the hose 4.

[0029] like Figure 1 , 3 As shown, the slot 11 is preferably a U-shaped clamp made of a deformable material. The deformation of the hose 4 and the U-shaped clamp allows the hose 4 to extend vertically through the U-shaped clamp, facilitating the vertical movement of the hose 4. When the main support 1 is being adjusted internally and externally, the section of hose 4 from the outlet 222 to the slot 11 moves together with the main support 1 without any positional change between them. This improves the stability of the connection between the hose 4 and the outlet 222, and the hose 4 will not shake or shift, thus not interfering with the operation and adjustment of the guide support by the staff.

[0030] As an improved specific implementation, the hose 4 is connected to the pump body 5 to transport the collected fluid, and the pump body 5 is connected to the external circulation pipe 6, which is connected to the curtain mold head.

[0031] like Figure 4 As shown in the figure, the equipment frame on which the curtain-type mold head is installed is not shown. In specific implementation, the pump body 5 and the circulation pipe 6 are both fixedly installed on the equipment frame above the curtain-type mold head. The hose 4 is connected to the pump body 5 from the outside from bottom to top. The pump body 5 provides suction to the hose 4 to draw the collected fluid into the circulation pipe 6. At the same time, the pump body 5 provides power to the fluid in the circulation pipe 6 to transport the fluid to the fluid inlet of the curtain-type mold head.

[0032] As an improved specific implementation, the circulation pipe 6 is also connected to an input pipe 7 for new fluid input. The new fluid and the collected circulating fluid are mixed in the circulation pipe 6 and transported to the curtain mold head.

[0033] like Figure 4 As shown, the input end 7 is also connected to the circulation pipe 6. On the one hand, it can use the power of the pump body 5 to transport new fluid, and on the other hand, it can mix the collected fluid and the new fluid in advance at the circulation pipe 6, thereby improving the uniformity of the fluid and avoiding uneven distribution of the collected fluid and the new fluid.

[0034] The above are merely preferred embodiments 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 within its protection scope. 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 its protection scope.
