Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of textile equipment technology, specifically, it relates to a cleaning device for carbon fiber filaments. Background Technology

[0002] Carbon fiber is a novel, high-performance organic fiber characterized by high strength, high modulus, high electrical conductivity, chemical resistance, and high temperature resistance. As an advanced structural and functional material, it is widely used in aerospace, wind turbine blades, sporting goods, and building materials. Due to its numerous excellent properties, carbon fiber has become a research hotspot, and in recent years, it has experienced widespread and rapid development.

[0003] Filament and broken fibers are common problems in carbon fiber production. During the carbon fiber manufacturing process, factors such as alkali metals in the polymerization process, residual initiators in the spinning solution, and stress concentration exceeding the fiber's inherent strength during oxidation and carbonization can all cause filament and broken fibers in defective areas. Furthermore, carbon fiber production involves processes such as unwinding, oxidation, carbonization, surface treatment, and winding. During these processes, the carbon fiber travels on multiple drive devices, and the surface roughness of the drive rollers can cause mechanical damage to the fiber. Friction between the carbon fiber and the roller shaft also contributes to filament and broken fibers. These filaments not only affect the product's appearance but also severely impair the carbon fiber's mechanical properties and reliability. For example, in downstream applications using prepreg manufacturing processes, the presence of localized filaments or even clumps can easily lead to changes in the prepreg's areal density and the formation of defects, seriously impacting product quality.

[0004] In current carbon fiber production, the generation of fuzz can be reduced through technological optimization and equipment improvement, but it cannot be completely eliminated. In summary, existing technologies clearly have inconveniences and shortcomings in practical use, thus necessitating improvement.

[0005] In view of the above, this utility model is hereby proposed. Utility Model Content

[0053] like Figure 1 As shown, this utility model provides a cleaning device for carbon fiber 5-fiber filaments, comprising:

[0054] Bracket 1;

[0055] The lint removal component 2 is mounted on the support 1, and has a cleaning space 3 that allows the carbon fiber 5 to pass through and removes the lint from the carbon fiber 5.

[0056] In this embodiment of the invention, a cleaning space 3 is provided on the lint removal component 2. The cleaning space 3 allows the carbon fiber 5 to pass through while removing the lint from the carbon fiber 5. This effectively removes the lint from the carbon fiber 5 while ensuring its quality.

[0057] The cleaning space 3 removes the lint from the carbon fiber 5 during its movement. The cleaning space 3 can remove the lint from the carbon fiber 5 using methods such as attaching it to a cloth 21a, brushing it off, etc.

[0058] The support frame 1, serving as the supporting structure for the entire cleaning device, is made of high-strength, corrosion-resistant metal materials, such as stainless steel or aluminum alloy. Its frame structure provides sufficient stability and rigidity to withstand the various forces generated by the lint cleaning assembly 2 and the carbon fiber 5 during operation.

[0059] When it is necessary to remove the fuzz from the carbon fiber 5, the carbon fiber 5 is introduced from one end of the cleaning space 3, passes through the cleaning space 3, and is brought out from the other end.

[0060] In the embodiments of this utility model,

[0061] The lint removal assembly 2 includes: two cleaning sections 21;

[0062] The two cleaning sections 21 are spaced apart vertically and staggered.

[0063] The space between the two cleaning sections 21 forms the cleaning space 3.

[0064] In the embodiments of this utility model, the staggered arrangement of the two cleaning parts 21 can expand the cleaning range for removing fuzz from the carbon fiber 5 and improve the cleaning effect.

[0065] When the carbon fiber 5 passes through the cleaning space 3, the upper cleaning part 21 removes the fuzz from the surface of the carbon fiber 5 from above, and the lower cleaning part 21 removes the fuzz from the surface of the carbon fiber 5 from below. The two work together to remove the fuzz from the carbon fiber 5 in all directions.

[0066] Furthermore, the bottom of the upper cleaning section 21 is provided with a cleaning layer 211 for adhering to the upper surface of the carbon fiber 5;

[0067] The top of the cleaning section 21 below is provided with a cleaning layer 211 for adhering to the lower surface of the carbon fiber 5;

[0068] The space between the two cleaning layers 211 forms the cleaning space 3.

[0069] The cleaning layer 211 is made of a material with a certain degree of adhesion and elasticity. On the one hand, it can adhere to the lint, and on the other hand, it can reduce the scratch damage to the carbon fiber 5 when it is bonded to the carbon fiber 5. For example, the cleaning layer 211 can be a velvet layer 211.

[0070] In an embodiment of this utility model, the lint removal component 2 further includes:

[0071] Two mounting parts 22 are provided with corresponding cleaning parts 21, and each mounting part 22 is mounted on the bracket 1 by a fastener 4.

[0072] In this embodiment of the invention, the mounting part 22 is used to stably fix the cleaning part 21 onto the bracket 1, ensuring that the cleaning part 21 will not shake or shift during operation. The fixing member 4 can be a fixing member 4 using a screw connection, a fixing member 4 using a locking connection, etc.

[0073] like Figure 2 shown, specifically,

[0074] The mounting section 22 includes:

[0075] Mounting layer 221, the first side of which is mounted on bracket 1 by fastener 4;

[0076] The cleaning layer 211 is disposed on the second side of the mounting layer 221 that is opposite to the first side.

[0077] The cleaning layer 211 is fixed to the bracket 1 via the mounting layer 221. The mounting layer 221 is designed to prevent direct connection between the cleaning layer 211 and the bracket 1, thereby reducing damage to the cleaning layer 211. The mounting part 22 is used to stably fix the cleaning part 21 to the bracket 1, ensuring that the cleaning part 21 will not shake or shift during operation.

[0078] The mounting section 22 also includes:

[0079] A buffer layer 222 is disposed between the mounting layer 221 and the cleaning layer 211, and is respectively attached to the mounting layer 221 and the cleaning layer 211.

[0080] The buffer layer 222 can prevent excessive compression of the carbon fiber 5.

[0081] Furthermore, the outer periphery of the buffer layer 222 extends to be flush with the outer periphery of the mounting layer 221, making the buffer area of ​​the buffer layer 222 large enough to ensure uniform buffering effect.

[0082] Among them, the mounting layer 221 is a wooden board layer 221a, which has a certain strength and toughness and can provide stable support for the cleaning part 21;

[0083] The buffer layer 222 is a sponge layer 222a. The sponge layer 222a has good elasticity and buffering performance, which can absorb the vibration generated during the cleaning process, reduce the impact on the carbon fiber 5, further protect the carbon fiber 5 from damage, and prevent the carbon fiber 5 from being excessively squeezed by the upper and lower cleaning layers 211.

[0084] When the buffer layer 222 is a sponge layer 222a, the sponge layer 222a and the wooden board layer 221a are connected by adhesive.

[0085] The cleaning section 21 is a velvet cloth 21a. The cleaning section 21 covers the outer surface of the mounting layer 221 and the buffer layer 222, which can increase the cleaning area and adhere the escaped lint.

[0086] The cleaning layer 211 of the cleaning section 21 is a velvet layer 211. The velvet layer 211 is soft and delicate, which can better adhere to the surface of the carbon fiber 5 and improve the cleaning effect.

[0087] The velvet 21a is connected to the sponge layer 222a and the wooden board layer 221a by adhesive bonding.

[0088] When removing lint, the carbon fiber 5 to be cleaned is introduced from one end of the cleaning space 3, passes through the cleaning space 3 and is led out from the other end. During the process of the carbon fiber 5 passing through the cleaning space 3, the cleaning layer 211 of the cloth 21a adheres to the upper and lower surfaces of the carbon fiber 5. The lint on the surface of the carbon fiber 5 is removed by the friction and adsorption of the cloth 21a.

[0089] Furthermore, the height of the mounting layer 221 on the bracket 1 is adjustable via the fastener 4.

[0090] The size of the cleaning space 3 is changed by adjusting the height of the mounting layer 221, ensuring that the carbon fiber 5 can pass through the cleaning space 3 smoothly and that the cleaning part 21 can fully adhere to the surface of the carbon fiber 5.

[0091] Specifically, the bracket 1 has a horizontal support portion 11, and the horizontal support portion 11 is provided with mounting holes extending vertically along the axis;

[0092] Fastener 4 includes:

[0093] The screw 41 extends in the vertical direction, and one end of it passes through the mounting hole, passes through the horizontal support 11, and is fixedly connected to the first side of the mounting layer 221.

[0094] Two adjusting nuts 42 are respectively attached to the top and bottom of the horizontal support 11 at the mounting holes and are respectively screwed to the screw rod 41.

[0095] By rotating the two adjusting nuts 42, the position of the screw 41 in the mounting hole can be adjusted, thereby adjusting the height of the mounting layer 221.

[0096] The screw 41 can be fixed to the mounting layer 221 by screwing, welding, etc. When the mounting layer 221 is a wooden board layer 221a, the screw 41 is screwed to the wooden board. The screwing position of the screw 41 to the wooden board is the installation position, and the wooden board outside the installation position is covered with velvet 21a.

[0097] Specifically, the bracket 1 has two horizontal support parts 11, which are arranged vertically.

[0098] The upper wooden board layer 221a is suspended from the upper horizontal support part 11 by screw 41 and adjusting nut 42, and the lower wooden board layer 221a is supported from the lower horizontal support part 11 by screw 41 and adjusting nut 42.

[0099] When assembling the device, place the bracket 1 on a stable workbench and ensure that the horizontal support part 11 of the bracket 1 is in a horizontal state;

[0100] Place the sponge layer 222a flat on the wooden board layer 221a so that the two are closely attached and the outer edge of the sponge layer 222a is flush with the outer edge of the wooden board layer 221a; wrap the velvet cloth 21a around the outer surface of the wooden board layer 221a and the sponge layer 222a, ensuring that the velvet cloth 21a is tightly wrapped and without wrinkles.

[0101] One end of the screw 41 is passed through the mounting hole on the horizontal support 11 and fixedly connected to the wooden board layer 221a of the assembled mounting part 22;

[0102] Two adjusting nuts 42 are installed on the screw 41, so that the two adjusting nuts 42 are located at the top and bottom of the horizontal support 11 respectively, and fit against the horizontal support 11.

[0103] When adjusting the height, rotate the two adjusting nuts 42 to move the screw 41 up or down, thereby raising or lowering the mounting part 22 and changing the size of the cleaning space 3.

[0104] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model in any way. Although the present utility model has been disclosed above with reference to a preferred embodiment, it is not intended to limit the present utility model. Any person skilled in the art can make some modifications or alterations to the above-described technical content to create equivalent embodiments without departing from the scope of the present utility model. Any simple modifications, equivalent changes, and alterations made to the above embodiments based on the technical essence of the present utility model without departing from the scope of the present utility model shall still fall within the scope of the present utility model.
