A steam setting device for sock processing

Abstract

This utility model discloses a steam-setting device for sock processing, including a housing with a horizontal plate inside. A motor is fixedly connected to the bottom of the horizontal plate. In actual use, pulling the handle outward causes the horizontal plate to slide outward on a slide rail via a slider. A mold is inserted into a slot in the horizontal plate, and the locking screw is rotated to mount the mold onto a circular plate. A sock is then placed on the mold, and pushing the handle again moves the mold into the housing. The motor then drives a rotating shaft, causing the circular plate and mold to rotate. This design solves some problems in existing devices. In traditional sock processing devices, mold changing is cumbersome and feeding efficiency is low. This device, with its integrated design, enables rapid feeding, and mold changing can be done with simple operations, improving operational convenience. Simultaneously, the rotation of the circular plate driven by the motor makes the processing smoother and more efficient, reducing the tediousness of manual operation and improving overall production efficiency.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of sock processing technology, specifically to a steam setting device for sock processing. Background Technology

[0002] A steam-setting device for sock processing is specifically designed for sock manufacturing. This device has a closed setting space with an internal piping system that evenly releases steam. During operation, socks are placed inside, and steam is ejected from the pipes, filling the entire space. The heat and moisture of the steam soften the sock fibers and set them to a predetermined shape, achieving the desired appearance and size.

[0003] A search revealed that Chinese patent CN207313931U discloses a steam shaping device for sock processing. This patent describes a device with sock covers, on which socks can be fitted. The connection between the shaping plate and the fixing frame is a spring hinge, allowing the sock cover to rotate and drive the shaping plate to rotate as well. Steam is then sprayed onto the sock surface through steam nozzles. Two shaping plates are used, allowing steam to be sprayed onto both the front and back of the sock, ensuring even contact and good shaping. Furthermore, after the sock cover passes between the shaping plates, the plates automatically reset, and the steam nozzles on their surfaces are blocked by rubber protrusions on the fixing plate, preventing steam from escaping into the air. This effectively saves steam, reduces production costs, and represents a highly practical technical solution.

[0004] While this solution avoids steam escaping into the air and saves steam, it is cumbersome to place socks in the device. Furthermore, different socks require different molds, and changing the molds is complex, significantly reducing work efficiency. To address this technical problem, this invention proposes a steam-setting device for sock processing. Utility Model Content

[0013] Preferably, the outer side of the housing is rotatably connected to a switch door, and the switch door has a viewing window inside.

[0014] (III) Beneficial Effects

[0015] This utility model provides a steam setting device for sock processing. It has the following beneficial effects:

[0016] (1) Pull the handle outward, and the horizontal plate slides outward on the slide rail via the slider. Insert the mold into the slot of the horizontal plate, turn the locking screw to install the mold on the circular plate, then put the sock on the mold, push the handle to make the mold enter the box, and then the motor drives the rotating shaft to rotate, thereby making the circular plate and the mold rotate. This combination solves some problems in the existing device. In the traditional sock processing device, mold replacement may be troublesome and the feeding efficiency is not high. However, this device achieves fast feeding through the cooperation of the handle, slide rail, horizontal plate, etc. The mold can be replaced through simple operation, which improves the convenience of operation. At the same time, the circular plate rotates under the drive of the motor, which makes the processing process smoother and more efficient, reduces the tediousness of manual operation, and improves the overall production efficiency.

[0017] (2) Starting the electric push rod can push the steam generator at the bottom of the connecting plate to the middle of multiple molds. Then, water is added to the water tank through the water inlet pipe. Then, the water pump is started. The water pump draws water out of the water tank. The water flows through the three-way water pipe to the hose and the steam generators on both sides. The hose then delivers the water to the steam generator in the middle. The steam generator generates steam to shape the socks. This combination solves the problems in the existing device. In the traditional sock shaping device, there may be uneven steam distribution, resulting in poor shaping effect. Moreover, the operation process of the equipment may be more complicated, affecting production efficiency. This device ensures that the steam can be evenly distributed around the socks through the cooperation of each component, improving the shaping quality. The orderly coordination of each component makes the whole shaping process smoother and more efficient, reducing the tediousness of manual intervention. Attached Figure Description

[0023] The technical solutions of the present invention will now be clearly and completely described with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present invention.

[0024] Please see Figure 1-4 This utility model provides a technical solution:

[0025] Example 1: A steam setting device for sock processing includes a housing 1, a horizontal plate 2 inside the housing 1, a motor 3 fixedly connected to the bottom of the horizontal plate 2, a rotating shaft 4 fixedly connected to the output end of the motor 3, a circular plate 5 fixedly connected to the other end of the rotating shaft 4, a plurality of slots 22 inside the circular plate 5, a plurality of molds 6 outside the circular plate 5, each mold 6 having its bottom end slidably connected to the slot 22, a plurality of locking screws 7 threadedly connected inside the circular plate 5, the locking screws 7 corresponding to the slots 22, a plurality of ventilation holes 8 inside each mold 6, a pair of sliders 9 fixedly connected to the bottom of the horizontal plate 2, two pairs of slide rails 10 fixedly connected inside the housing 1, the sliders 9 corresponding to the slide rails 10, a handle 11 fixedly connected to the outer wall of the horizontal plate 2, and the sliders 9 slidably connected to the slide rails 10.

[0026] Pulling handle 11 outward causes the horizontal plate 2 to slide outward along the slide rail 10 via slider 9. Once the horizontal plate 2 is outside the box, insert the mold 6 into the slot 22 on the horizontal plate 2. Next, rotate the locking screw 7 to quickly install the mold 6 onto the circular plate 5, placing the socks onto the multiple molds 6 on top of the circular plate 5. Then, push handle 11 to push the mold 6 containing the socks back into the box 1. Finally, start the motor 3, which drives the rotating shaft 4 to rotate, which in turn drives the circular plate 5 and the molds 6 to rotate together. Through the cooperation of these components, rapid material loading and convenient mold replacement are achieved. Compared to traditional operation methods, this design greatly improves work efficiency.

[0027] Example 2: The difference between this example and Example 1 is that, in this example, the box 1 is equipped with three steam generators 16 inside, the top of the middle steam generator 16 is fixedly connected to a connecting plate 15, the top of the box 1 is fixedly connected to an electric push rod 14, and the output end of the electric push rod 14 is fixedly connected to the top of the connecting plate 15. The box 1 is equipped with a water tank 17 outside, the top of the water tank 17 is fixedly connected to a water pump 18, the output end of the water pump 18 is fixedly connected to a water pipe 19, the other two ends of the water pipe 19 pass through the box 1 and extend into the steam generators 16 on both sides, a flexible hose 21 is provided in the middle of the water pipe 19, the other end of the flexible hose 21 passes through the connecting plate 15 and extends into the middle steam generator 16, a water filling pipe 20 is provided on the top of the water tank 17, and a switch door 12 is rotatably connected to the outside of the box 1, and a viewing window 13 is provided inside the switch door 12.

[0028] Start the electric push rod 14. Once the electric push rod 14 starts operating, it pushes the steam generator 16 at the bottom of the connecting plate 15, moving the steam generator 16 to the center position of the multiple molds 6, and adding water to the water tank 17 through the water inlet pipe 20. Then, start the water pump 18. When the water pump 18 runs, it draws water out of the water tank 17 and delivers it through the water pipe 19 to the hose 21 and the steam generators 16 on both sides. The hose 21 then delivers water to the central steam generator 16, which begins generating steam to shape the socks. Through the cooperation of these components, the steam distribution is more uniform, and this design improves the shaping efficiency of the socks compared to traditional steam distribution methods.

[0029] The working principle is as follows: When the worker needs to process and steam-shape the socks, first open the switch door 12 and pull the handle 11 outward. At this time, the horizontal plate 2 slides outward within the slide rail 10 via the slider 9. When the horizontal plate 2 slides to the outside, first insert the mold 6 into the slot 22, and then quickly install the mold 6 onto the circular plate 5 by rotating the locking screw 7. Then, put the socks onto the multiple molds 6 on the top of the circular plate 5, and push the handle 11 to push the molds 6 into the housing 1. By starting the motor 3, the rotating shaft 4 is driven to rotate, which in turn drives the circular plate 5 and the molds 6 to rotate. Through their cooperation, rapid material loading and mold changing are achieved. The effect is improved, and the work efficiency is increased. Then, the switch door 12 is closed and the electric push rod 14 is started. Under the action of the electric push rod 14, the steam generator 16 at the bottom of the connecting plate 15 is pushed to the middle of multiple molds 6. Water is added to the water tank 17 through the water pipe 20. Then, the water pump 18 is started. Under the action of the water pump 18, the water inside the water tank 17 is extracted and transported to the hose 21 and the steam generators 16 on both sides through the water pipe 19. The hose 21 will transport water to the steam generator 16 in the middle. The steam generator 16 generates steam to shape the socks. Through their cooperation, the steam is more uniform and the shaping efficiency is improved.
