Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of warping technology, specifically to a device for homogenizing the wax layer of warp threads. Background Technology
[0002] Silk is a natural protein fiber made from silkworm cocoons. It has excellent properties such as a soft luster, a soft feel, and good moisture absorption and breathability, making it an important raw material for high-end silk products. The raw silk is woven through winding, doubling, twisting, and warping, and finally on a rapier loom. During the winding process, wax is applied to the silk threads to increase their lubricity.
[0003] However, during the processes of doubling, twisting, and warping, when multiple threads are combined or twisted, the friction between the threads can cause some of the wax layer on the threads to fall off. The repeated stretching and friction of the threads on the warping frame and the yarn guide may further cause some of the wax layer on the threads to fall off, resulting in an uneven distribution of the wax layer on the threads. This increases the chance of thread breakage when weaving on a rapier machine. Utility Model Content
[0004] To address the aforementioned technical deficiencies, this invention provides a warp wax layer homogenizing device, which can homogenize the wax layer on the warp during warping.
[0005] This utility model discloses a warp wax layer homogenization device, including a water tank, a plate, a water distributor, a water pump, a heating pipe, a temperature sensor, and a controller. The bottom of the water tank is provided with support legs. A vertical plate is provided in the middle of the water tank along the length of the water tank. The length of the plate is less than the length of the water tank. The bottom of the plate is fixed to the bottom of the water tank. The upper side of the plate is higher than the water tank. The part of the plate that is higher than the water tank is evenly provided with threading holes that penetrate the plate. The upper surface of the plate is evenly provided with countersunk holes, which are located between adjacent threading holes. The lower end of the plate is provided with a water outlet that penetrates the bottom of the countersunk hole in a front-to-back direction. The upper end of the countersunk hole is connected to a branch pipe, which is connected to the water outlet of the water distributor. The water inlet of the water distributor is connected to the water outlet of the water pump through a No. 1 water pipe. A No. 2 water pipe is provided on the water inlet of the water pump. The end of the No. 2 water pipe away from the water pump is located in the water tank. The heating pipe and the temperature sensor are provided in the water tank. The heating pipe, the temperature sensor, and the controller are electrically connected.
[0006] The principle of the above technical solution is as follows: by heating the water in the water tank and maintaining a constant temperature, a water pump is used to transport the hot water to the distributor, and then the water is injected into the countersunk hole at the top of the plate through a branch pipe. As the hot water flows through the countersunk hole, it heats the plate, causing the temperature of the inner wall of the threading hole to rise. When the warp thread passes through the threading hole, the high temperature inside the hole melts the wax layer on the surface of the warp thread. During the movement of the warp thread, the molten wax layer is re-coated evenly on the surface of the warp thread due to contact and friction, thereby achieving the homogenization of the wax layer.
[0007] In order to ensure that the wax layer on the warp is sufficiently homogenized, the thickness of the plate is in the range of 5 to 10 cm. The plate has sufficient thickness to ensure that the wax layer has enough contact time when the warp passes through the threading hole, so that the wax layer can be fully melted.
[0008] To ensure that the threading holes are fully heated, the water outlet is located below the lowest threading hole. Hot water flows out from the countersink through the water outlet, so that the threading holes on the lower side can also be fully heated.
[0009] To reduce damage to the warp threads, the edges of both ends of the threading hole are rounded.
[0010] The warp wax layer homogenizing device obtained by this utility model has the following advantages: by circulating hot water to heat the plate, the warp threads are heated evenly in the threading holes, and the molten wax layer is recoated during friction and movement, which significantly improves the uniformity and adhesion of the wax layer; at the same time, the use of a water distributor and a countersunk hole structure to achieve uniform heating of the plate avoids local overheating or insufficient temperature, and ensures stable and reliable wax layer homogenization.

[0015] Example 1:
[0016] like Figure 1 , 2As shown in Figure 3, this utility model discloses a warp wax layer homogenizing device, including a water tank 2, a plate 5, a water distributor 6, a water pump 9, a heating tube 11, a temperature sensor 12, and a controller 14. A support leg 1 is provided at the bottom of the water tank 2. A vertical plate 5 is provided in the middle of the interior of the water tank 2 along its length. The length of the plate 5 is less than the length of the water tank 2, and the thickness of the plate 5 is 8 cm. The bottom of the plate 5 is fixed to the bottom of the water tank 2. The upper side of the plate 5 extends above the water tank 2. Threading holes 4 are evenly arranged on the portion of the plate 5 extending above the water tank 2, penetrating the plate 5. The edges of the threading holes 4 are rounded at both ends. Countersunk holes 1 are evenly arranged on the upper surface of the plate 5. 3. The countersunk hole 13 is located between the adjacent wire threading holes 4. The lower end of the plate 5 is provided with a water outlet 3 that runs through the bottom of the countersunk hole 13 in a front-to-back direction. The water outlet 3 is located below the lowest wire threading hole 4. The upper end of the countersunk hole 13 is connected to a branch pipe 7, which is connected to the water outlet of the water distributor 6. The water inlet of the water distributor 6 is connected to the water outlet of the water pump 9 through a first water pipe 8. A second water pipe 10 is provided on the water inlet of the water pump 9. The end of the second water pipe 10 away from the water pump 9 is located in the water tank 2. A heating pipe 11 and a temperature sensor 12 are provided in the water tank 2. The heating pipe 11 and the temperature sensor 12 are electrically connected to the controller 14.
[0017] The principle of the above technical solution is as follows: by heating the water in the water tank 2 and maintaining a constant temperature, the hot water is transported to the water distributor 6 by the water pump 9, and then injected into the countersunk hole 13 at the upper end of the plate 5 through the branch pipe 7. When the hot water flows through the countersunk hole 13, it heats the plate 5, causing the temperature of the inner wall of the threading hole 4 to rise. When the warp thread passes through the threading hole 4, the high temperature inside the hole melts the wax layer on the surface of the warp thread. During the movement of the warp thread, the molten wax layer is re-coated evenly on the surface of the warp thread due to contact and friction, thereby achieving the homogenization of the wax layer.
