Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of furniture manufacturing technology, specifically to a wood drying device for furniture manufacturing. Background Technology

[0002] Before being made into furniture, wood is dried to prevent it from warping during the manufacturing process. This process is called wood drying, and it is usually done using a wood drying oven. After the furniture is finished, it is dried again. The main purpose is to ensure the dryness of the furniture, so that it can be used for a long time without warping, getting damp, or being affected by insects.

[0003] Existing drying methods can only dry one side of the board. During the drying process, it is impossible to ensure that all sides of the board are heated evenly, which can easily lead to the board being in a semi-dry and semi-wet state after drying.

[0004] To address the aforementioned problems, existing technologies provide a solution. For example, patent publication number CN219995779U provides a sandblasting device for civil engineering decoration and renovation. This solution utilizes a high-efficiency drying device for furniture manufacturing, including a drying chamber and a top turntable. A temperature measuring instrument is installed on one end of the inner surface of the drying chamber, a partition is installed on one side of the temperature measuring instrument, a rotating shaft is installed on one end of the partition, the top turntable is installed on one side of the outer surface of the rotating shaft, a telescopic rod is installed on one side of the outer surface of the top turntable, a locking plate is installed on one end of the telescopic rod, a limit baffle is installed on one side of the outer surface of the locking plate, a base is installed on one side of the outer surface of the drying chamber, and a housing is installed on one end of the base. This high-efficiency drying device for furniture manufacturing differs from existing high-efficiency drying devices for furniture manufacturing. After the wood raw material is clamped, the drive motor is started, which drives the lower turntable to rotate, causing the wood raw material to rotate. As the wood raw material rotates, the top turntable rotates as well, ensuring that all surfaces of the wood are heated evenly and that each surface is completely dried. Existing devices simply place the wood in a drying chamber and dry it at high temperatures. Although this method can dry the wood relatively evenly, it results in a relatively slow drying speed, thus reducing the overall drying rate of the wood.

[0005] Therefore, a wood drying device for furniture manufacturing is proposed. Utility Model Content

[0006] The purpose of this invention is to provide a wood drying device for furniture manufacturing, thereby solving the above-mentioned problems.

[0013] Preferably, the gear ratio between the secondary gear and the primary gear is 1:3 to 1:6.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0023] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. However, the embodiments described below are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all of them. If other embodiments are obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort, they shall fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0024] Reference Figures 1 to 6 A wood drying device for furniture manufacturing includes a drying chamber 1, a servo motor 2, a baffle mechanism 3, a nozzle 4, a support plate 5, a drive mechanism 6, a main clamping plate 7, and a secondary clamping plate 8. The servo motor 2 is connected to the drying chamber 1, the baffle mechanism 3 is connected to the servo motor 2, and both the nozzle 4 and the support plate 5 are connected to the baffle mechanism 3. The nozzle 4 blows air onto the wood. The drive mechanism 6 is connected to the support plate 5, the main clamping plate 7 is connected to the drive mechanism 6, and the secondary clamping plate 8 is connected to the main clamping plate 7. When the servo motor 2 is started, the air in the two baffle mechanisms 3 is sprayed onto the wood through the nozzle 4 in an alternating manner. At the same time, the support plate 5 rotates synchronously and the drive mechanism 6 controls the main clamping plate 7 and the secondary clamping plate 8 to clamp the wood.

[0025] As one embodiment of this utility model, refer to Figures 3 to 5The turbulence mechanism 3 includes a rotating shaft 31, a disc 32, a compression block 33, and an inflatable airbag 34. The rotating shaft 31 is connected to the drying chamber 1, the disc 32 is connected to the rotating shaft 31, and the compression block 33 is connected to the disc 32. The compression block 33 is formed by die stamping and is made of high-strength plastic with a smooth surface to reduce wear on the inflatable airbag 34. When the disc 32 rotates, it ensures that the air is effectively compressed, forming an interlaced airflow. The inflatable airbag 34 cooperates with the compression block 33. When the compression block 33 rotates, it intermittently compresses the inflatable airbags 34 at both ends. 4. This enables the function of blowing air to both ends of the wood. The compression block 33 is set in the shape of an eagle claw. Through the above setting, the airbag 34 can be gradually compressed, and the air inside the airbag 34 can be gradually discharged. There are four compression blocks 33 arranged around the perimeter. The sum of the angles of the compression blocks 33 on the two discs 32 is 360 degrees, and the compression blocks 33 on the two discs 32 are staggered. Through the above setting, the two airbags can be continuously compressed, so that the two ends of the wood can be blown alternately, which can avoid uneven heating at both ends of the wood.

[0026] As one embodiment of this utility model, refer to Figure 5 and Figure 6 The drive mechanism 6 includes an arc rack 61, a main gear 62, a secondary gear 63, a longitudinal reciprocating lead screw 64, a longitudinal threaded block 65, a transverse reciprocating lead screw 66, a transverse threaded block 67, a connecting gear 68, and a longitudinal rack 69. The arc rack 61 is connected to the drying chamber 1. The main gear 62 meshes with the arc rack 61, and the secondary gear 63 meshes with the main gear 62. Through the above arrangement, the transmission ratio can be further amplified or reduced to meet different clamping force requirements. The longitudinal reciprocating lead screw 64 is connected to the secondary gear 63, and the longitudinal threaded block 65 meshes with the longitudinal reciprocating lead screw 64. The transverse reciprocating screw 66 is connected to the main clamping plate 7. The transverse threaded block 67 and the connecting gear 68 are both connected to the transverse reciprocating screw 66. The longitudinal rack 69 is engaged with the connecting gear 68. The curvature of the arc rack 61 is 45 degrees. The center line of the arc rack 61 is parallel to the center line of the main gear 62. Through the above settings, the lifting distance of the main clamping plate 7 can be kept consistent, so that the main clamping plate 7 can not only clamp the wood, but also separate the main clamping plate 7 from the wood. The gear ratio of the secondary gear 63 to the main gear 62 is 1:3-1:6.

[0027] Working principle: When the servo motor 2 starts, it drives the rotating shaft 31 to rotate, which in turn drives the disc 32 to rotate. Since the pressing blocks 33 on the two discs 32 are staggered and the sum of their angles is 360 degrees, the pressing blocks 33 will intermittently press the airbags 34 during the rotation of the discs 32. This causes the air in the airbags 34 to be sprayed onto the wood through the nozzles 4, achieving intermittent blowing on the wood and ensuring the uniformity of wood drying. At the same time, the support plate 5 rotates synchronously under the drive of the servo motor 2, and the drive mechanism 6 on the support plate 5 starts to work. The main gear 62 engages with the arc rack 61, converting the linear motion of the arc rack 61 into the rotation of the main gear 62. The secondary gear 63 then engages with the main gear 62 to further amplify or reduce the transmission ratio. The longitudinal reciprocating screw 64 moves linearly under the drive of the secondary gear 63, and the longitudinal threaded block 65 moves linearly on the longitudinal reciprocating screw 64. The linear motion of the longitudinal threaded block 65 is transmitted to the longitudinal rack 69 through the connecting gear 68. The longitudinal rack 69 drives the transverse threaded block 67 on the transverse reciprocating screw 66 to move linearly, thereby controlling the main clamping plate 7 and the secondary clamping plate 8 to clamp the wood, keeping the wood stable during the drying process and further improving the drying effect.

The appended claims and their equivalents define the scope of this utility model.
