A fabric fluffing mechanism for the inside of an oven

Abstract

This utility model discloses a fabric fluffing mechanism inside an oven, relating to the field of fabric drying technology. It includes a first auxiliary roller, a first transmission roller, a second transmission roller, a tension roller, and a second auxiliary roller. A woven mesh is wrapped around the first auxiliary roller, first transmission roller, second transmission roller, tension roller, and second auxiliary roller, with an "M"-shaped arrangement above the mesh. In this utility model, a first transmission motor drives the first transmission roller and the loosening roller to rotate via a sprocket and toothed chain. The high-speed rotation of the loosening roller strikes the woven mesh, causing it to pulsate the fabric and create a wavy shape. The wavy fabric increases the contact area with air. Compared to a flat surface, the "protrusions" and "concaves" on the fabric surface create a three-dimensional space, allowing hot and humid air to circulate more easily and quickly remove moisture. The beating process loosens the gaps between the fabric fibers, breaking the moisture adsorption between the fibers, allowing hidden moisture to penetrate to the surface more quickly, preventing the fabric from being "dry on the outside and damp on the inside" after drying.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model specifically relates to the field of fabric drying technology, and more specifically to a fabric fluffing mechanism inside a drying oven. Background Technology

[0002] Fabric absorbs a large amount of moisture during previous processes (such as dyeing, printing, washing, and sizing). If not dried, this moisture can cause the fabric to stick together, become moldy, or breed bacteria during transport, contaminating the fabric. Moisture also increases the weight of the fabric, leading to uneven tension during transport, causing deviation, stretching, and deformation, affecting the accuracy of subsequent processes. Drying is a core process in fabric production, with the main purpose of removing excess moisture to ensure the feasibility of subsequent processing and the stability of finished product quality.

[0003] Traditional fabric drying devices simply feed the fabric into the drying oven for drying. However, this drying method can cause the fabric to stick together in some areas due to contact with the transmission rollers during the fabric transport process, resulting in dampness. The moisture hidden inside cannot penetrate to the surface, which can easily lead to a situation where the outside is dry but the inside is damp. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a fabric fluffing mechanism inside a drying oven. This mechanism fluffs the fabric inside the oven by striking it with a loosening roller, achieving a fluffing effect. The wavy fabric increases the contact area with air. Compared to a flat surface, the "protrusions" and "recesses" on the fabric surface create a three-dimensional space, allowing hot and humid air to circulate more easily and quickly remove moisture. This addresses the technical problems mentioned in the background section.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: A fabric fluffing mechanism for an oven includes a fabric loosening mechanism disposed inside the oven, and a dryer installed on the top side inside the oven. Multiple fans are located above the dryer. An external fabric beating mechanism is installed at the fabric inlet of the oven. The fabric loosening mechanism includes a first auxiliary roller, a first drive roller, a second drive roller, a tension roller, and a second auxiliary roller. A woven mesh is wrapped around the first auxiliary roller, the first drive roller, the second drive roller, the tension roller, and the second auxiliary roller, and the woven mesh is arranged in an "M" shape above it. Loosening rollers are provided on both sides of the first drive roller. The two loosening rollers and both ends of the first drive roller are installed with the outer side plate through bearings with seats. One end is also fitted with a sprocket. Multiple sprockets are connected to the sprocket on the output shaft of the first drive motor through a toothed chain drive.

[0006] As a further technical solution of this utility model, a fabric feeding roller is provided above the first transmission roller; a first pressure roller is provided above the first transmission roller, and a second pressure roller is provided above the second transmission roller. Both ends of the feed roller, the first pressure roller, and the second pressure roller are connected to the outer side plate via bearings with mounting brackets.

[0007] As a further technical solution of this utility model, the second auxiliary roller is located between the second transmission roller and the third auxiliary roller, wherein a second transmission motor is installed at one end of the second transmission roller.

[0008] As a further technical solution of this utility model, the loosening roller includes an intermediate roller, and beating rollers are provided on both sides of the intermediate roller. The diameter of the beating rollers is smaller than the diameter of the intermediate roller. Rhomboid pieces are welded to both ends of the two beating rollers and the intermediate roller, and convex shafts are provided on the outer side of the rhomboid pieces.

[0009] As a further technical solution of this utility model, glass fiber cotton is bonded to the inner side of the outer side plate, and an epoxy phenolic board is bonded to the inner side of the glass fiber cotton; the epoxy phenolic board, glass fiber cotton and outer side plate are also fixed by bolts that run horizontally through them.

[0010] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are: 1. In this invention, a first drive motor drives a first drive roller and a loosening roller to rotate via a sprocket and a toothed chain. The high-speed rotation of the loosening roller beats the woven fabric, causing the fabric to bend and form a wavy shape. The wavy fabric increases the contact area with air. Compared to a flat state, the "protrusions" and "recesses" on the fabric surface create a three-dimensional space, allowing hot and humid air to circulate more easily and quickly remove moisture. The beating process loosens the gaps between the fabric fibers, breaking the moisture-absorbing force between the fibers, allowing the hidden moisture to penetrate to the surface more quickly, preventing "dry outside and damp inside" after drying. This reduces localized "stuffiness" caused by fabric stacking or bonding, shortens drying time, and reduces energy consumption. 2. In this utility model, the first pressure roller and the second pressure roller can transport the fabric and the mesh, ensuring the normal transport of the fabric; the mesh can reduce the direct friction between the fabric and the roller, reduce the risk of the fabric edges getting fuzzy and the surface getting pilled, and at the same time avoid the static electricity generated by friction during the transport process from attracting dust. 3. In this utility model, the epoxy phenolic board and glass fiber cotton have good thermal insulation effect, which can prevent the internal high temperature from damaging the outer bearing, ensure the stable storage of lithium grease in the bearing, and prevent the lithium grease from melting and dripping.

Detailed Implementation

[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] Please see Figure 1-8In this embodiment of the present invention, a fabric loosening mechanism inside a drying oven includes a fabric loosening mechanism 100, which is disposed inside a drying oven 200. A dryer 400 is installed on the top side inside the drying oven 200. Multiple fans are provided above the dryer 400. An external fabric beating mechanism 300 is installed at the fabric inlet of the drying oven 200. The fabric loosening mechanism 100 includes a first auxiliary roller 1, a first transmission roller 2, a second transmission roller 3, a tension roller 11, and a second auxiliary roller 4, which are mounted on the inner sides of two outer side plates 16 via bearing seats. A woven mesh 13 is surrounded on the first auxiliary roller 1, the first transmission roller 2, the second transmission roller 3, the tension roller 11, and the second auxiliary roller 4, and the woven mesh 13 is arranged in an "M" shape at the top. Loosening rollers 6 are provided on both sides of the first transmission roller 2. The two loosening rollers 6 and both ends of the first transmission roller 2 are installed with the outer side plate 16 through bearing seats. One end is also fitted with a sprocket 7. Multiple sprockets 7 are connected to the sprocket on the output shaft of the first transmission motor 8 through toothed chain drive.

[0022] By adopting the above technical solution, the first drive motor 8 drives the first drive roller 2 and the loosening roller 6 to rotate via the sprocket 7 and toothed chain. The loosening roller 6 rotates at high speed, striking the woven mesh 13, causing the woven mesh 13 to perform a wavy process on the fabric, making the fabric form a wave shape. The wavy fabric increases the contact area with air. Compared with the flat state, the "protrusions" and "concaves" on the fabric surface form a three-dimensional space, allowing hot and humid air to circulate more easily and quickly remove moisture. The beating process loosens the gaps between the fabric fibers, breaking the moisture adsorption force between the fibers, allowing the hidden moisture inside to penetrate to the surface more quickly, avoiding "dry outside and damp inside" after drying. This reduces localized "stuffiness" caused by fabric stacking or bonding, shortens drying time, and reduces energy consumption.

[0023] In this embodiment, a feed roller 5 is provided above the first drive roller 2; a first pressure roller 10 is provided above the first drive roller 2, and a second pressure roller 12 is provided above the second drive roller 3; both ends of the feed roller 5, the first pressure roller 10 and the second pressure roller 12 are connected to the outer side plate 16 through bearing seats.

[0024] By adopting the above technical solution, the first pressure roller 10 and the second pressure roller 12 can transport the fabric and the mesh 13, ensuring the normal transport of the fabric; the mesh 13 can reduce the direct friction between the fabric and the roller, reduce the risk of the fabric edge fuzzing and surface pilling, and at the same time avoid the static electricity generated by friction during the transport process to attract dust.

[0025] In this embodiment, the second auxiliary roller 4 is located between the second transmission roller 3 and the third auxiliary roller 17, wherein a second transmission motor 9 is installed at one end of the second transmission roller 3.

[0026] In this embodiment, the loosening roller 6 includes an intermediate roller, and beating rollers are provided on both sides of the intermediate roller. The diameter of the beating rollers is smaller than the diameter of the intermediate roller. Rhomboid pieces are welded to both ends of the two beating rollers and the intermediate roller, and convex shafts are provided on the outer side of the rhomboid pieces.

[0027] In this embodiment, glass fiber cotton 15 is bonded to the inner side of the outer side plate 16, and epoxy phenolic board 14 is bonded to the inner side of the glass fiber cotton 15; the epoxy phenolic board 14, glass fiber cotton 15 and outer side plate 16 are also fixed by bolts that pass through them laterally.

[0028] By adopting the above technical solution, the epoxy phenolic board 14 and glass fiber cotton 15 have good thermal insulation effect, which can prevent the internal high temperature from damaging the outer bearing, ensure the stable storage of lithium grease in the bearing, and prevent the lithium grease from melting and dripping.

[0029] The working principle of this invention is as follows: The first drive motor 8 drives the first drive roller 2 and the loosening roller 6 to rotate via the sprocket 7 and toothed chain. The loosening roller 6 rotates at high speed, striking the woven mesh 13, causing the woven mesh 13 to perform a wavy process on the fabric, making the fabric form a wave shape. The wavy fabric increases the contact area with air. Compared to a flat state, the "protrusions" and "concaves" on the fabric surface create a three-dimensional space, allowing hot and humid air to circulate more easily and quickly remove moisture. The beating process loosens the gaps between the fabric fibers, breaking the moisture adsorption force between the fibers, allowing the hidden moisture inside to penetrate to the surface more quickly, avoiding "dry outside and damp inside" after drying. This reduces localized "stuffiness" caused by fabric stacking or bonding, shortens drying time, and reduces energy consumption.

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.
