[0027] To address the problem of uneven heating caused by electric heating in existing technologies, this invention provides a hot plate heating device for a vulcanizing machine and a vulcanizing machine itself.
[0028] See Figures 1 to 3 The hot plate heating device of the vulcanizing machine includes: a base 10 and a heating coil 20. The heating coil 20 includes multiple heating parts 23, each heating part 23 is arranged sequentially along the circumference of the base 10, and the ends of each heating part 23 are connected sequentially. The heating part 23 has at least one layer of spiral structure.
[0029] By winding the heating coil 20 into multiple heating sections 23, each section can be adjusted during use, thereby making the temperature of each section closer to equilibrium, improving the temperature uniformity of the hot plate 30 surface, and reducing uneven vulcanization caused by unbalanced heating.
[0030] The heating coil 20 includes a single heating coil tube, which includes a heating section and a transition section. The heating coil tube is spirally wound to form a heating part 23. The transition section is located between two adjacent heating parts 23. The heating sections of two adjacent heating parts 23 are connected by the transition section. The transition section protrudes from the plane where the heating part 23 is located.
[0031] Along the extension direction of the single heating coil tube, the winding direction of each heating part 23 is the same.
[0032] The heating coil 20 has at least two protruding sections 21 that extend out of the base 10 and are used to connect to external devices. The protruding sections 21 are respectively connected to the outer ring of different heating parts 23, and one end of the protruding section 21 connected to the heating part 23 is located at the outer ring of the base 10.
[0033] The coil is introduced from one end of the partition and wound around the outside of the hot plate 30. The coil can be wound 1-3 times, with a spacing of 30-50mm between the windings. After the outer winding is completed, the coil is wound on the inner side in a zigzag pattern. After winding in each area, a heating section is formed, and then the coil is wound into the next area, forming a transition section. After the coil is wound in all areas, the final coil is led out from the top. The introduction end and the lead-out end form two protruding sections 21.
[0034] The coil is a current-carrying wire that heats the entire hot plate 30 through electromagnetic induction. This single wire heats the entire hot plate 30, reducing the number of electromagnetic heaters and lowering production costs. The heating elements 23 are arranged in a U-shape, ensuring the coil current direction remains consistent. This enhances the intensity of electromagnetic induction in the hot plate 30, further improving the efficiency of electromagnetic induction heating.
[0035] In this application, the heating coil 20 also includes a central heating part 22 with a loop structure. The central heating part 22 is located at the center of the base 10, and each heating part 23 is located around the central heating part 22. One end of the central heating part 22 is connected to a heating part 23.
[0036] The heating coil 20 has a first extension section and a second extension section. The first extension section and the second extension section extend out of the base 10 and are used to connect to external devices. The first extension section is connected to the outer ring of the heating part 23, and the second extension section extends to the center of the base 10 and is connected to the inner ring of the central heating part 22.
[0037] The spiral winding method between each heating element 23 may cause the coil density in the central region to be different from the coil density in each heating element 23, resulting in a temperature difference. Therefore, a central heating element 22 is provided, and by winding the central region separately, the temperature between the central region and each heating element 23 is balanced, thereby reducing the temperature difference.
[0038] In this application, the substrate 10 includes a hot plate 30 and a functional layer, the hot plate 30 and the functional layer are stacked, and at least one of the hot plate 30 and the functional layer has a groove, the opening of the groove is facing the surface of the stacked hot plate 30 and the functional layer, and at least a portion of the heating coil 20 is embedded in the groove.
[0039] The heating plate 30 is the main heating plate, while the functional layer primarily serves to prevent magnetic leakage and maintain heat. To improve the overall heat retention of the heating device and reduce magnetic field leakage, the heating coil 20 needs to be completely housed inside the base 10. Therefore, a groove is provided on the base 10 to accommodate the coil. Since the body is divided into a functional layer and a heating plate 30, grooves can be provided on both the heating plate 30 and the functional layer for placing the heating coil 20. However, since the functional layer primarily serves to prevent magnetic leakage and maintain heat, it is optimal to have the groove on the heating plate 30 to avoid affecting the heat retention and magnetic insulation functions of the functional layer.
[0040] In this application, the functional layer includes a first magnetic insulating layer 40 and a heat insulation layer 60. The hot plate 30 has a groove on the side facing the functional layer. The first magnetic insulating layer 40 covers the opening side of the groove. The heat insulation layer 60 is stacked with the first magnetic insulating layer 40 and is located on the side of the first magnetic insulating layer 40 away from the hot plate 30.
[0041] The first magnetic insulating layer 40 includes a stainless steel layer and a silicon steel layer, with the silicon steel layer being closer to the hot plate 30 than the stainless steel layer.
[0042] The first magnetic insulating layer 40 primarily functions to maintain magnetism, reducing electromagnetic field leakage and thus improving the heating effect of the hot plate 30 while minimizing energy waste. The first magnetic insulating layer 40 mainly covers the surface of the hot plate 30, reducing magnetic field leakage from its surface. Furthermore, the vulcanizing machine hot plate heating device also includes a second magnetic insulating layer 50, which is disposed on the outer peripheral side of the hot plate 30 and further reduces magnetic field leakage from its outer peripheral side.
[0043] The insulation layer 60 mainly serves to keep the heat in place. During the use of the heating device, heat exchange with the surrounding environment with a lower temperature is inevitable, resulting in heat loss. Therefore, the insulation layer 60 is set up to reduce heat loss and lower costs.
[0044] In this application, the silicon steel layer includes multiple silicon steel sub-layers, which are stacked sequentially. Each silicon steel sub-layer includes multiple sub-segments, which are sequentially spliced together circumferentially to form a ring structure. A splicing line is formed between two adjacent sub-segments, and the splicing lines between two adjacent silicon steel sub-layers are staggered along the stacking direction.
[0045] By using multiple layers of magnetically insulating silicon steel, the difficulty of magnetic field passage is increased, thereby improving the magnetic retention effect. To facilitate installation and disassembly of the silicon steel layers, the sublayers are divided into multiple segments. During installation, these segments can be spliced together to form a single silicon steel sublayer. This also avoids the inconvenience of handling a single silicon steel sublayer due to its excessive size and weight. The sub-segments are smaller and lighter than the entire sublayer, making installation easier for workers.
[0046] A splicing line is formed between two adjacent sub-segments. The magnetic field may leak from the gap of the splicing line. Therefore, the splicing lines between two adjacent silicon steel sub-layers are staggered along the stacking direction. In this way, the magnetic field leaking from the splicing line of the first layer will be blocked by the silicon steel sub-layer of the second layer, thereby reducing the leakage of the magnetic field.
[0047] As can be seen from the above description, the embodiments of this utility model achieve the following technical effects:
[0048] 1. By winding the heating coil 20 into multiple heating parts 23, each part can be adjusted during use, thereby making the temperature of each part closer to balance, improving the temperature uniformity of the hot plate 30 surface, and reducing the occurrence of uneven vulcanization caused by unbalanced heating.
[0049] 2. Each heating element 23 is arranged in a U-shape, and the direction of the coil current is kept consistent, which improves the intensity of electromagnetic induction of the hot plate 30 and further improves the efficiency of electromagnetic induction heating.
