Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of shoe processing technology, specifically to a humidification device for shoe processing. Background Technology
[0002] Due to the characteristics of its materials, newly manufactured shoes usually require a humidification process before further processing. Humidification can make the shoe materials more stable (leather materials can be humidified to restore the leather's flexibility and extensibility, while fabrics can be humidified to help stabilize size and shape) and help the shoes hold their shape better.
[0003] Whether it's to help shape the shoes or stabilize the material properties, most shoe humidification methods on the market currently rely on manually spraying water vapor onto the shoes using a spray bottle to achieve the humidification effect. However, this method requires pressing the bottle, which makes manual labor intensive and inefficient. Utility Model Content

[0020] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0021] like Figure 1-4 As shown, this utility model provides a humidification device for shoe processing, including a steam generator 1, a water tank 2, and a humidification device 3.
[0022] In this embodiment, the water tank 2 is located at the top of the steam generator 1 and communicates with the interior of the steam generator 1. It should be understood that water can be added to the steam generator 1 through the water tank 2, allowing the steam generator 1 to continuously generate steam for wetting shoes. The aforementioned steam generator 1 is a mechanical device that uses thermal energy to heat water into steam; specifically, the steam generator 1 can be an electric steam generator, etc. The steam generator 1 of this utility model is prior art, and its specific structure and working principle will not be described in detail here.
[0023] The air inlet of the humidifier 3 is connected to the first exhaust port of the steam generator 1 via the steam supply pipe 11. The air inlet is located at the bottom of the humidifier 3, and the top of the humidifier 3 has a second exhaust port 31. In other words, the water vapor generated by the steam generator 1 is delivered to the humidifier 3 through the steam supply pipe 11, and the humidifier 3 then humidifies the shoes through its second exhaust port 31. Therefore, workers can directly hang their shoes on the humidifier 3 to humidify them, greatly reducing the labor intensity. In addition, the water vapor also has a certain sterilization effect on the shoes.
[0024] Furthermore, a support platform 4 is provided on one side of the steam generator 1, and the humidification device 3 is installed on the support platform 4.
[0025] Preferably, the humidifier 3 is mounted on the support platform 4 via a lifting platform 41. The lifting platform 41 is mounted on the top of the support platform 4 in a liftable manner, and the lifting platform 41 has a through hole through which the upper end of the steam pipe 11 passes and is connected to the air inlet of the humidifier 3.
[0026] Furthermore, the bottom of the lifting platform 41 is provided with multiple bolts 42 at intervals, and the top of the support platform 4 is provided with multiple threaded holes corresponding to the bolts 42. The bottom ends of the multiple bolts 42 pass through the multiple threaded holes and are connected to multiple nuts 43. It can be understood that the height of the lifting platform 41 on the support platform 4 can be adjusted by loosening the nuts 43 on the bolts 42, so that the humidification equipment can be adjusted according to the height of the worker, making it more convenient for the worker to use.
[0027] Preferably, the top of the water tank 2 has an opening, and a cover plate 21 is provided at the opening. The cover plate 21 is hinged to the top of the water tank 2. It should be understood that when there is very little water left in the steam generator 1, the cover plate 21 can be opened to add water through the water tank 2, and the cover plate 21 covering the opening can prevent dust from entering the interior of the steam generator 1.
[0028] Preferably, the steam supply pipe 11 is a long, flexible tube. It should be understood that the long, flexible steam supply pipe 11 is better suited for adjusting the height of the lifting platform 41.
[0029] In this embodiment, the humidification device 3 includes a first elongated tube 32 and a second elongated tube 33 connected to each other. The air inlet is located at the bottom end of the first elongated tube 32, and the second exhaust port 31 is located at the top end of the second elongated tube 33. Preferably, there are multiple second exhaust ports 31. The first elongated tube 32 is arranged vertically, and the second elongated tube 33 is arranged at an angle.
[0030] Preferably, the side wall of the second elongated tube 33 is provided with multiple third exhaust ports. It should be understood that shoes can be humidified by hanging them on the second elongated tube 33, and the second exhaust port 31 at the top of the second elongated tube 33 and the third exhaust ports on the side wall of the second elongated tube 33 can humidify the inside of the shoes from all directions, while the inclined second elongated tube 33 makes it more convenient and quick to hang the shoes.
[0031] Preferably, the outer wall of the second elongated tube 33 can be covered with non-woven fabric. The non-woven fabric allows the water vapor discharged from the second elongated tube 33 to be evenly dispersed, and it also provides protection, preventing accidental contact with the high-temperature second elongated tube 33. Additionally, preferably, the bottom of the lifting platform 41 is connected to the support platform 4, allowing water droplets flowing from the humidifying device 3 to the lifting platform 41 to circulate to the support platform 4 for easy collection. A filter cloth can be installed at the bottom of the lifting platform 41 for filtration.
[0032] In other embodiments, an infrared sensor 5 for detecting whether shoes are hanging at the second long tube 33 can be provided on the outside of the first long tube 32. An electromagnetic valve 6 electrically connected to the infrared sensor 5 is provided in the inner wall of the first long tube 32. The electromagnetic valve 6 can control the opening and closing of the first long tube 32 and the second long tube 33. After the infrared sensor 5 detects that shoes are hanging at the second long tube 33, the electromagnetic valve 6 will connect the first long tube 32 and the second long tube 33, so that water vapor can enter the second long tube 33 and be discharged from the second exhaust port 31 to humidify the shoes. This ensures that the humidification device 3 will only spray water vapor when shoes are hanging, avoiding waste of water resources and improving the temperature of the workers' working environment.
[0033] It is worth noting that the steam generator 1, infrared sensor 5 and solenoid valve 6 in this utility model can all be implemented using existing products, and their principles and structures will not be described in detail here.
[0034] It should be noted that the terms "comprising," "including," or any other variations thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, such that a process, method, article, or apparatus that comprises a list of elements includes not only those elements but also other elements not expressly listed, or elements inherent to such a process, method, article, or apparatus. Without further limitation, an element defined by the phrase "comprising one..." does not exclude the presence of other identical elements in the process, method, article, or apparatus that includes said element.
[0035] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
