Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of polypropylene filament processing technology, and in particular to a polypropylene filament drying device. Background Technology
[0002] Polypropylene yarn is a synthetic fiber made from polypropylene (PP) resin through melt spinning, belonging to the thermoplastic fiber category of chemical fibers. Due to its excellent properties and relatively low production cost, it is widely used in textiles, industry, medicine, and many other fields.
[0003] In the production of polypropylene filament, drying is one of the important processes. In traditional polypropylene filament drying operations, the drying zone structure is relatively exposed, and the heating air required for drying is easily lost quickly, making it impossible to accurately dry the polypropylene filament and reducing the drying efficiency. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by providing a polypropylene filament drying device to solve the problems mentioned in the background section.
[0005] A polypropylene filament drying device includes a workbench and a drying mechanism installed on the workbench. The drying mechanism includes a baffle, a cylinder, an air chamber, a cover plate, a hot air blower, a reel, and a water absorption assembly.
[0006] The baffle is driven by the cylinder to move up and down along the workbench. The air chamber is installed on the top surface of the workbench. The cover plate is fixed to the top of the air chamber. The hot air blower is installed on the cover plate. There are multiple reels distributed on the sides of the air chamber.
[0007] The water absorption assembly includes a second cylinder, an adsorption plate, a slide rail, and the second adsorption plate. The second adsorption plate is fixedly installed on one side of the slot of the baffle, and the second cylinder and the first adsorption plate are installed on the other side of the slot of the baffle. The first adsorption plate is fixed at the output end of the second cylinder and slides along the slide rail.
[0008] By adopting the above technical solution, it is convenient to place polypropylene filaments and adjust the baffle so that the workbench, baffle, and cover plate together form a drying chamber for drying polypropylene filaments.
[0009] The lower end of the workbench is fixedly equipped with a support plate that can support the guard.
[0010] By adopting the above technical solution, the support plate can support the support frame after it moves downward.
[0011] The air chamber has multiple air outlets on its periphery, which are set to correspond to the height of the reel.
[0012] By adopting the above technical solution, it is convenient to dry polypropylene yarn.
[0013] The cover plate is also equipped with a moisture vent.
[0014] By adopting the above technical solution, water vapor can be discharged from the vent.
[0015] Both the first and second adsorption plates are composed of a fixed plate and absorbent cotton, and the upper end of the absorbent cotton on the second adsorption plate is inclined.
[0016] By adopting the above technical solution, the baffle can move upward smoothly, and the absorbent cotton on the second adsorption plate will not be blocked by the polypropylene filaments.
[0017] The beneficial effects of this utility model's polypropylene filament drying device are:
[0018] This device allows workers to easily place polypropylene filaments onto it. The second driving cylinder pushes the first adsorption plate along the slide rail, so that the second adsorption plate and the first adsorption plate are in contact with the polypropylene filaments. During the conveying process of the polypropylene filaments, water stains on the polypropylene filaments can be adsorbed. Multiple air outlets are opened on the periphery of the air chamber and are set to correspond to the height of the reel. After the hot air passes through the air outlets, it can blow onto the polypropylene filaments, improving the drying efficiency of the polypropylene filaments. Attached Figure Description

[0022] The preferred embodiments of the present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings, so that the advantages and features of the present invention can be more easily understood by those skilled in the art, thereby providing a clearer and more definite definition of the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0023] Reference Figure 1-2 A polypropylene filament drying device includes a workbench 1 and a drying mechanism installed on the workbench 1. The drying mechanism includes a baffle 3, a cylinder 4, an air chamber 5, a cover plate 6, a hot air blower 7, a thread wheel 8, and a water absorption assembly.
[0024] The baffle 3 is driven by cylinder 4 to move up and down along the workbench 1. The air chamber 5 is installed on the top surface of the workbench 1. The cover plate 6 is fixed to the top of the air chamber 5. The hot air blower 7 is installed on the cover plate 6. There are multiple reels 8 distributed on the side of the air chamber 5.
[0025] The water absorption assembly includes cylinder 2 9, adsorption plate 10, slide rail 11 and adsorption plate 2 12. Adsorption plate 2 12 is fixedly installed on one side of the slot 302 of the baffle 3. Cylinder 2 9 and adsorption plate 10 are installed on the other side of the slot 302 of the baffle 3. Adsorption plate 10 is fixed at the output end of cylinder 2 9 and slides along slide rail 11.
[0026] The polypropylene filament can be wrapped around the inside of a spool 8 on one side of the air chamber 5, then pulled to another spool 8 on the same side and wrapped around its outside, then wrapped around the outside of the spool 8 at the elliptical end of the air chamber 5, so that the polypropylene filament can be reversed and pulled to the outside of a spool 8 on the other side of the air chamber 5, and finally wrapped around the inside of another spool 8 on that side, thus completing the traction and arrangement of the polypropylene filament from the device.
[0027] A fixed plate 301 is fixed to the bottom of the baffle 3. Cylinder 4 is installed on the fixed plate 301, and its output end is fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the workbench 1. The cylinder 4 is driven to lift the baffle 3 upward, so that the top surface of the baffle 3 contacts the bottom surface of the cover plate 6. At this time, the polypropylene filament is at the fixed plate 301. The first adsorption plate 10 and the second adsorption plate 12 are both composed of fixed plates and absorbent cotton. The upper end of the absorbent cotton on the second adsorption plate 12 is inclined. (Because the upper end of the absorbent cotton on the second adsorption plate 12 is inclined, when the baffle 3 drives the second adsorption plate 12 to move upward, the second adsorption plate 12 moves upward in contact with the polypropylene filament.)
[0028] Drive cylinder 29 pushes adsorption plate 10 to move along slide rail 11, so that adsorption plate 212 and adsorption plate 10 are attached to the polypropylene filament together, and can adsorb water stains on the polypropylene filament during the conveying process.
[0029] The hot air blower 7 is started, and its output hot air is delivered to the air chamber 5 and sprayed out from the air outlet 501 to dry the polypropylene yarn. The cover plate 6 is also equipped with a dehumidification port 601, through which the water vapor generated during the drying process can be discharged. (An exhaust fan can be installed at the dehumidification port 601 to accelerate the discharge of water vapor.)
[0030] A support plate 2 is fixedly installed at the lower end of the workbench 1 to support the baffle 3. After the baffle 3 moves downward, the bottom of the baffle 3 is supported by the support plate 2. At this time, the upper surface of the baffle 3 is flush with the upper surface of the workbench 1. There is enough distance between the cover plate 6 and the workbench 1 to facilitate the worker to pull the polypropylene yarn and place it on the device.
[0031] Multiple air outlets 501 are provided on the periphery of the air chamber 5 and are set to correspond to the height of the reel 8. After the hot air passes through the air outlets 501, it can blow onto the polypropylene yarn, thereby improving the drying efficiency of the polypropylene yarn.
[0032] The embodiments described above are merely examples of several implementations of this utility model, and while the descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, they should not be construed as limiting the scope of the utility model patent. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the concept of this utility model, and these modifications and improvements all fall within the protection scope of this utility model.
