Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of ramie fiber degumming technology, specifically to a microbial degumming device for ramie fiber manufacturing. Background Technology

[0002] The ramie microbial degumming pot is a special equipment used for degumming ramie. Its working principle is as follows: the raw ramie is placed in the pot, and degumming is achieved through the metabolic activities of microorganisms. Specifically, microorganisms (such as gum-decomposing bacteria) multiply in the pot and produce enzymes. These enzymes decompose and degrade the gum components in the ramie through biochemical action, ultimately causing the individual fibers to separate from each other.

[0003] However, existing ramie microbial degumming devices have the following technical defects in practical applications: Most devices use the method of directly immersing ramie fibers in microbial degumming solution for degumming treatment. To ensure the degumming effect, it is usually necessary to use stirring or mixing devices to achieve full contact between the solution and the fibers. However, in actual operation, when the solution and ramie fibers are mixed by stirring or mixing devices, ramie fibers are prone to agglomeration and entanglement, resulting in insufficient contact between the fibers and the solution in some areas (i.e., degumming dead zones), which in turn affects the degumming effect. At the same time, the agglomerated and entangled fibers will also have an adverse effect on subsequent processing steps (such as carding, spinning, etc.). Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a microbial degumming device for ramie fiber manufacturing, in order to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: a microbial degumming device for ramie fiber manufacturing, comprising a processing tank, a cover plate provided at the opening end of the processing tank via a connecting assembly, a feeding pipe provided on the cover plate, the side wall of the processing tank being connected to the cover plate via a lifting assembly, a rotating assembly provided in the middle of the cover plate, and symmetrical adjustment mechanisms matching the rotating assembly provided on both sides of the cover plate, and a clamping assembly provided inside the rotating assembly.

[0006] Preferably, in order to facilitate the closing of the cover and ensure sealing, the connecting assembly includes an insertion groove opened at the opening end of the processing tank, and an insertion ring is provided at the bottom end of the cover to be inserted into the insertion groove.

[0007] Preferably, in order to facilitate the up-and-down movement of the cover plate and the placement and removal of ramie fibers, the lifting assembly includes mounting plates symmetrically arranged on the side wall of the processing tank, and top plates symmetrically arranged on the side wall of the cover plate. The mounting plates and top plates on the same side are connected by a first electric push rod.

[0008] Preferably, in order to ensure full contact between the whole and ramie fibers and the microbial degumming solution and guarantee the degumming effect, the rotating component includes a rotating motor located in the middle of the cover plate. The output end of the rotating motor is fixedly provided with a rotating shaft. The bottom end of the rotating shaft is provided with an upper clamping plate. A lower guide plate is provided below the upper clamping plate. The upper clamping plate and the lower guide plate are connected by an adjustment mechanism.

[0009] Preferably, in order to facilitate the guiding and combing of ramie fibers, the two ends are clamped and fixed after combing to avoid entanglement during subsequent rotation and mixing, while ensuring full contact with the microbial degumming solution. The adjustment mechanism includes connecting blocks symmetrically arranged on both sides of the upper clamping plate and the lower guide plate. A screw is provided between two connecting blocks in the same vertical direction. The screw is rotatably connected to the top connecting block through a bearing, and the screw is connected to the bottom connecting block through thread engagement.

[0010] Preferably, in order to facilitate the guiding and combing of ramie fibers, the two ends are clamped and fixed after combing to avoid entanglement during subsequent rotation and mixing, while ensuring full contact with the microbial degumming liquid. The adjustment mechanism also includes adjustment motors symmetrically arranged on the cover plate. The adjustment motors are equipped with mounting seats on the outside, and the mounting seats are connected to the cover plate through a second electric push rod. A rotating rod is fixedly provided at the output end of the adjustment motor, and a limiting block is provided at the bottom end of the rotating rod. A limiting hole that engages with the limiting block is opened at the top end of the screw.

[0011] Preferably, in order to facilitate the clamping and fixing of ramie fibers and avoid entanglement during subsequent rotation and mixing, while ensuring full contact with the microbial degumming solution, the clamping assembly includes a clamping plate set in the lower guide plate. One end face of the clamping plate is provided with an anti-slip pad, and the other end face of the clamping plate is provided with slide rods at equal intervals. A spring is sleeved on the outside of the slide rods. The slide rods slide out of the lower guide plate, and a circular plate is fixed at the end of the slide rods. The clamping assembly structure in the upper clamping plate is the same as the clamping assembly structure in the lower guide plate.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0013] (1) In terms of ensuring the uniformity of degumming, the rotating motor set in the middle of the cover plate drives the upper clamping plate and the lower guide plate to rotate through the rotating shaft, which can drive the clamped ramie fiber to rotate continuously in the microbial degumming solution, promote the full contact between the fiber and the solution, reduce the dead corner of degumming, and improve the uniformity of degumming effect; the clamping components set in the upper clamping plate and the lower guide plate clamp and fix the two ends of the ramie fiber through the elastic force of the spring, and the anti-slip protrusions on the surface of the anti-slip pad can reduce the contact area with the fiber, prevent the fiber from sliding, and further ensure the stable contact between the fiber and the solution during the rotation process;

[0014] (2) In terms of fiber combing and anti-tangling, the upper clamping plate and the lower guide plate are connected by an adjustment mechanism. After the adjustment motor adjusts the position through the second electric push rod, it can drive the screw to rotate and drive the lower guide plate to move relative to the upper clamping plate. During the movement, the clamping components in the lower guide plate guide and comb the ramie fibers to avoid fiber agglomeration and tangling. At the same time, the clamping and fixing of the upper and lower clamping plates reduces the risk of fiber tangling during rotation and mixing, and provides convenience for subsequent combing, spinning and other processing steps.

[0015] (3) In terms of sealing and ease of operation, the insertion groove at the opening end of the processing tank and the insertion ring at the bottom end of the cover plate can effectively ensure the sealing when the cover plate is closed and avoid leakage of bacterial liquid; the side wall of the processing tank is connected to the top plate of the side wall of the cover plate through the first electric push rod. The synchronous extension and retraction of the electric push rod can drive the cover plate to move up and down as a whole, realize the rapid opening and closing of the processing tank, facilitate the placement of the ramie fiber to be degummed and the removal of the fiber after degumming, and simplify the operation process.

[0021] 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.

[0022] Please see Figures 1-4 This utility model provides an embodiment of a microbial degumming device for ramie fiber manufacturing, comprising a processing tank 11, a cover plate 12 provided on the processing tank 11 via a connecting assembly, the connecting assembly including an insertion groove 15 at the opening end of the processing tank 11, and an insertion ring 14 at the bottom end of the cover plate 12 that inserts into the insertion groove 15 to ensure a sealing effect when the cover plate 12 is closed. A feeding pipe 13 is provided on the cover plate 12 for convenient addition of microbial degumming bacterial solution. The microbial degumming bacterial solution is often obtained from natural environments such as ramie planting soil, decaying ramie stalks, and sludge from water bodies. After laboratory cultivation and acclimatization, it is adapted to the degumming environment and its enzyme production capacity is enhanced, enabling it to decompose the main gum components in ramie fiber. The microorganisms are strains of pectin, hemicellulose, lignin, etc. These microorganisms produce enzymes such as pectinase and hemicellulase through metabolic activities, which decompose the gum and separate the fibers. This is a relatively mature technology and will not be described in detail here. In order to facilitate the up and down movement of the cover plate 12 and realize the opening and closing, and to facilitate the placement and removal of the ramie fibers to be degummed, the side wall of the processing tank 11 is connected to the cover plate 12 through a lifting assembly. The lifting assembly includes mounting plates 21 symmetrically arranged on the side wall of the processing tank 11, and top plates 22 symmetrically arranged on the side wall of the cover plate 12. The mounting plates 21 and top plates 22 on the same side are connected by a first electric push rod 23. The first electric push rod 23 extends and retracts synchronously, which can move the cover plate 12 up and down to realize the opening and closing of the cover plate 12.

[0023] Please see Figures 1-4To facilitate the rotation of ramie fibers and better mix them with the microbial degumming solution, ensuring the degumming effect and preventing ramie fibers from falling off for easy removal, a rotating assembly is provided in the middle of the cover plate 12. The rotating assembly includes a rotating motor 31 located in the middle of the cover plate 12. A rotating shaft 32 is fixedly mounted at the output end of the rotating motor 31. An upper clamping plate 33 is located at the bottom end of the rotating shaft 32, and a lower guide plate 34 is located below the upper clamping plate 33. The upper clamping plate 33 and the lower guide plate 34 are connected by an adjusting mechanism. A clamping assembly is also provided within the rotating assembly. The clamping assembly includes a clamping plate 54 located within the lower guide plate 34. One end face of the clamping plate 54 is provided with an anti-slip pad 55. Anti-slip protrusions (which can be integrally formed with the anti-slip pad 55 and can be made of rubber or other materials without affecting the degumming process) are equidistantly arranged on the anti-slip pad 55. These anti-slip protrusions (not shown in the figure) reduce the contact area with the ramie fibers. To ensure complete degumming, the other end face of the clamping plate 54 is provided with equidistant sliding rods 52. The number of sliding rods 52 can be three, four, or five sets, preferably three sets, to ensure the stability of the sliding of the clamping plate 54. Springs 53 are sleeved around the sliding rods 52. The spring coefficient of the spring 53 in the upper clamping plate 33 is greater than that in the lower guide plate 34. After the ramie fibers are clamped by the clamping assembly in the upper clamping plate 33, the lower guide plate 34 is moved downwards by the adjusting mechanism. The clamping assembly in the lower guide plate 34 guides and clamps the ramie fibers. The sliding rods 52 slide out of the lower guide plate 34. A circular plate 51 is fixed to the end of the sliding rod 52 to prevent slippage. The structure of the clamping assembly in the upper clamping plate 33 is the same as that in the lower guide plate 34. The top of the upper clamping plate 33 is closed, and the lower guide plate 34 consists of two separate plates, such as... Figure 4 As shown, the upper clamping plate 33, in conjunction with the clamping assembly, can clamp and fix the ramie fibers at the top, while the lower guide plate 34, in conjunction with the clamping assembly, can clamp and fix the ramie fibers at the bottom, facilitating mixing and rotation during the subsequent degumming process and ensuring the quality of degumming.

[0024] Please see Figures 1-4To move the lower guide plate 34 and guide the ramie fibers through the internal clamping assembly for subsequent degumming, the adjustment mechanism includes connecting blocks 46 symmetrically arranged on both sides of the upper clamping plate 33 and the lower guide plate 34. A screw 47 is positioned between the two connecting blocks 46 in the same vertical direction. The screw 47 is rotatably connected to the top connecting block 46 via a bearing, and to the bottom connecting block 46 via a threaded engagement. This mechanism facilitates adjustment and allows for separation after adjustment without affecting subsequent rotation. It also includes an adjusting motor 41 symmetrically arranged on the cover plate 12. The adjusting motor 41 is provided with a mounting base 42 on the outside. The mounting base 42 is connected to the cover plate 12 through a second electric push rod 43. The second electric push rod 43 extends and retracts, moving the adjusting motor 41 and the rotating rod 44 up and down as a whole, which facilitates the insertion and separation operation of the limiting block 45 and the limiting hole 48 on the screw 47. The output end of the adjusting motor 41 is fixedly provided with the rotating rod 44. The bottom end of the rotating rod 44 is provided with a limiting block 45. The top end of the screw 47 is provided with a limiting hole 48 that engages with the limiting block 45.

[0025] Working principle: When this utility model is in use, the first electric push rod 23 extends, moving the top plate 22 and cover plate 12 upwards. The insertion ring 14 leaves the insertion slot 15, moving the cover plate 12 upwards and away from the processing tank 11. This pulls the circular plate 51, causing the sliding rod 52 to slide within the lower guide plate 34 and upper clamping plate 33. The spring 53 contracts under force to store potential energy, placing the ramie fibers to be processed between the upper clamping plate 33 and the lower guide plate 34. At this time, under the action of the contraction potential energy of the spring 53, the ramie fibers are moved upwards, moving the clamping plate... 54 Reset, clamping and fixing the ramie fibers with clamping plate 54 and anti-slip pad 55, then retracting the second electric push rod 43, moving the adjusting motor 41 and rotating rod 44 downwards, and the limiting block 45 entering the limiting hole 48 in the screw 47 to complete the insertion and positioning. The two sets of adjusting motors 41 rotate synchronously, and the rotation of the rotating rod 44 can move the screw 47 in the connecting block 46 at the top. Under the action of the threaded engagement with the screw 47, the connecting block 46 at the bottom moves the lower guide plate 34 towards The ramie fibers are guided and combed downwards by the clamping plate 54 and anti-slip pad 55 inside the lower guide plate 34. After moving to the bottom, the ramie fibers at the bottom are clamped. Then, the adjusting motor 41 stops rotating, the second electric push rod 43 extends, and moves the adjusting motor 41 and the rotating rod 44 upwards to reset. The limiting block 45 leaves the limiting hole 48 and does not contact the screw 47. Then, the first electric push rod 23 retracts, and moves the cover plate 12 downwards, cooperating with the insertion ring 14 and the insertion groove 1. 5. The processing tank 11 is sealed with a cover. Microbial degumming solution is added through the feeding pipe 13. Then, the motor 31 is turned to rotate the ramie fibers between the upper clamping plate 33 and the lower guide plate 34 to ensure sufficient contact with the internal microbial degumming solution. After processing, the first electric push rod 23 extends and moves the cover plate 12 upward to remove the whole unit. Then, the circular plate 51 is pulled, moving the clamping plate 54 to release the clamping of the ramie fibers, which can then be removed to complete the processing.

[0026] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that this invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that it can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics of this invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered illustrative and non-limiting in all respects, and the scope of this invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description. Thus, it is intended that all variations falling within the meaning and scope of equivalents of the claims be included within this invention. No reference numerals in the claims should be construed as limiting the scope of the claims.
