[0016] Reference Figure 1-5 A prepreg pressing steel roller includes a roller shell 5 and an inner liner 4. A heat-conducting oil cavity for filling heat-conducting oil is provided between the inner liner 4 and the roller shell 5. Both ends of the inner liner 4 are fixedly connected to shaft ends located at both ends of the roller shell 5. One of the shaft ends is configured as a heat-conducting shaft end 2 that communicates with the heat-conducting oil cavity. The heat-conducting shaft end 2 is provided with an oil inlet channel and an oil return channel that communicate with the heat-conducting oil cavity. The other shaft end is a mounting shaft end 6. A plurality of baffles 10 are provided in the heat-conducting oil cavity, and the heat-conducting oil cavity is divided into a plurality of heat-conducting oil channels 14 by the baffles 10. Each heat-conducting oil channel 14 is provided with an oil inlet hole 12 communicating with the oil inlet channel and an oil outlet hole 13 communicating with the oil outlet channel. A guide plate 11 is provided between the oil outlet hole 13 and the oil inlet hole 12. One end of the guide plate 11 is a fixed end that is fixedly connected to the end face of the roller shell. The oil outlet hole 13 and the oil inlet hole 14 are located on the heat-conducting shaft head 2 or the inner liner near the fixed end of the guide plate. The other end of the guide plate 11 is provided with a connecting port 15. The heat-conducting oil channel 14 forms a U-shaped channel for extending the flow path of the heat-conducting oil through the guide plate 11 and the connecting port 15.

[0017] A hollow channel is provided inside the heat-conducting shaft head 2 along the axis of the heat-conducting shaft head. An oil inlet is provided at the outer end of the hollow channel, and the inner end of the hollow channel is closed. An oil return pipe 1, which serves as an oil return channel, is installed inside the hollow channel. The oil return pipe 1 is connected to the heat-conducting oil cavity. The space between the oil return pipe 1 and the hollow channel constitutes an oil inlet channel, which is connected to the heat-conducting oil cavity. An annular oil groove 7 is provided on the outer wall of the heat-conducting shaft head 2 to connect the oil inlet channel and the heat-conducting oil cavity. The annular oil groove 7 is arranged in a circle around the circumference of the heat-conducting shaft head 2. The heat-conducting shaft head is provided with a through hole I that connects the annular oil groove and the oil inlet channel, and the inner liner sidewall is provided with a through hole II that connects the annular oil groove and the heat-conducting oil cavity. The through hole I and the through hole II together constitute the oil inlet hole 14. The number of through holes I and the through hole II is the same as the number of heat-conducting oil channels, and they are evenly arranged along the circumference of the heat-conducting shaft head. A return cavity 8 communicating with the oil return channel is provided at the inner end of the heat-conducting shaft head 2. A block plate 3 is installed in the inner liner 4. The cavity between the block plate 3 and the heat-conducting shaft head 2 constitutes the return cavity.

[0018] The partition 10 is evenly arranged along the circumference of the inner liner, and the guide plate 11 is located on the central axis of the heat transfer oil channel 14, so that the roller shell is heated evenly and the overall expansion is uniform after the heat transfer oil is heated. The oil inlet and return hole are not located on the same cross section. The roller shell is a press-fit steel roller shell, the inner liner is a press-fit steel roller inner liner, and the shaft head is also a press-fit steel shaft head. The press-fit steel used above is all made of 42CrMo. The press-fit steel roller made of 42CrMo ensures that the entire press-fit steel roller can maintain a small amount of runout regardless of the temperature.

[0019] The installation process of the prepreg pressing steel roller of this utility model is as follows: the inner end of the oil return pipe 1 is fixed to the inner end of the heat-conducting shaft head 2 by a threaded connection; the heat-conducting shaft head 2 and the plug plate 3 are fixed to one end of the inner liner 4 and the roller shell 5 of the pressing steel roller by heat-sealing welding, forming an oil inlet chamber 7 and a return chamber 8; the mounting shaft head 6 is fixed to the other end of the inner liner 4 and the roller shell 5 of the pressing steel roller by heat-sealing welding. After the oil return pipe 1, the heat-conducting shaft head 2, the plug plate 3, the inner liner 4, and the mounting shaft head 6 are made into a whole, they are fixed to the inside of the roller shell 5 of the pressing steel roller by heat-sealing welding, forming a heat-conducting oil chamber 9.

[0020] The working principle of the prepreg pressing steel roller of this utility model is as follows: the heat transfer oil flows through the annular channel between the outer wall of the return oil pipe 1 and the inner hole of the heat transfer shaft head 2 into the annular oil groove 7, and then enters the heat transfer oil chamber 9 through the oil inlet holes 12 evenly distributed on the circumference of the inner liner 4. Figure 2 , Figure 3The heat transfer oil chamber 9 is composed of a partition plate 10, a guide plate 11, and a roller shell 5, forming four sets of evenly distributed U-shaped flow channels on the outer circumferential surface of the inner liner 4. The heat transfer oil enters through the oil inlet 12 in the U-shaped flow channels under its own pressure, flows along the guide plate 11 through the connecting port 15 to form a U-shaped return flow to the return hole 13, and then enters the return chamber 8, and then flows out through the return oil pipe 1. The heat transfer oil conducts heat to the roller shell 5 during its flow in the U-shaped channel. As the heat of the heat transfer oil is absorbed by the roller shell 5, the heat is gradually consumed during the flow, creating a temperature difference between the oil inlet and outlet in the heat transfer oil cavity. At this time, the oil inlet and outlet compensate for each other's temperature through the partition 10 and the guide plate 11, achieving dynamic temperature balance of the heat transfer oil. This ensures uniform heating of the roller shell 5 by the heat transfer oil, guaranteeing the uniformity of the temperature of the pressed steel roller surface. In addition, the material used for the pressed steel roller is 42CrMo, which has good thermal stability and uniform thermal expansion, thus ensuring the amount of runout of the pressed steel roller surface.

[0021] The heat-conducting oil in the prepreg pressing steel roller of this utility model repeatedly flows in and out, uniformly heating the pressing steel roller and causing it to expand uniformly. This ensures that the runout at both ends and in the middle of the roller surface remains within a reasonable and controllable range. The pressing steel roller with low runout and high straightness ensures that the prepreg to be pressed is uniformly compressed, resulting in uniform resin and fiber surface density, high surface flatness, and good appearance consistency. This meets the usage requirements of the prepreg processing technology, ensures the stability of the prepreg product's flatness and other quality aspects, and improves production efficiency.

[0022] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or changes made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model, based on the technical solution and the inventive concept of the present utility model, should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
