Abstract
Description
A polyimide film production line Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of polyimide film production equipment, in particular to a polyimide film production line. Background Art
[0002] Polyimide film, also known as PI film, is the world's best-performing thin-film insulating material. It has excellent high and low temperature resistance, electrical insulation, adhesion, radiation resistance, and dielectric resistance. It is particularly suitable for use as a substrate for flexible printed circuit boards and various high-temperature resistant motor and electrical insulation materials.
[0003] Polyimide film is generally prepared by a solvent casting molding method, specifically, an extrusion die extrudes polyimide slurry onto the steel belt of a steel belt casting machine. The steel belt carries the polyimide slurry through a drying oven for drying and curing. The polyimide slurry is then transferred to a transverse stretching machine through a peeling transition mechanism for transverse stretching, and a heat source is used for imidization reaction. Finally, it is wound after annealing treatment.
[0004] However, existing conventional polyimide film production lines have the following disadvantages:
[0005] 1. In the production process of polyimide film, heat sources are required to achieve drying and imidization reaction, which consumes a lot of energy. Therefore, in order to achieve energy saving and reduce production costs, it is necessary to improve the production equipment to reduce heat energy loss.
[0006] 2. In order to extend the drying path, the steel belt will generally move in a waist-shaped path, that is, the steel belt is wound on the active drum structure and the driven drum structure, and the upper and lower straight sections of the steel belt are built into the drying box. The polyimide slurry follows the rotation of the steel belt to achieve secondary drying. The steel belt on the steel belt casting machine needs to be disassembled and maintained regularly, such as cleaning the steel belt and checking the damage of the steel belt so that it can be repaired or replaced in time to ensure the production quality of the polyimide film. The frame and outer insulation structure of the drying box prevent the steel belt from being disassembled from the front or back of the drying box. In addition, the drying box also includes an air duct structure set on the frame. If the air duct structure needs to be disassembled to facilitate the disassembly of the steel belt, then the air duct position needs to be reassembled and debugged later, which is very cumbersome and time-consuming. Therefore, it is necessary to design the steel belt casting machine based on the needs of steel belt disassembly and maintenance.
[0007] 3. The outer insulation structure of the drying box needs to be assembled by splicing insulation modules. Since the internal parts of the steel strip cast film machine need to be regularly maintained, replaced, cleaned, lubricated, and troubleshooted, it is necessary to design an inspection port for staff to enter the interior of the steel strip cast film machine. If an inspection port is set on the insulation outer body of the insulation module, the insulation inner body needs to be installed to fill the inspection port in the working state to reduce the heat transfer and loss to the outside through the inspection port. During maintenance, the insulation inner body is pulled out from the inspection port to open the inspection port for staff to enter. However, the insulation inner body is heavy and has a certain volume, so the friction between the insulation inner body and the insulation outer body is very large, which makes it very inconvenient for staff to pull out and put in the insulation inner body. It is not only time-consuming and labor-intensive, but also difficult to adjust the position of the insulation inner body.
[0008] 4. Due to the traction and manufacturing errors of the steel belt of the steel belt casting machine, the steel belt will deviate left and right during the transmission process, or even deviate from the track, which can easily lead to stress concentration on the steel belt, reduce the service life of the steel belt, and affect the connectivity and stability of production; in addition, due to the instability of the steel belt, it is difficult to ensure that the polyimide slurry is evenly distributed on the surface of the steel belt during the casting process, thereby affecting the thickness uniformity of the polyimide film and further affecting the quality of the polyimide film.
[0009] 5. The conveying system of the existing transverse stretching machine adjusts the distance between the two sprockets by setting a transverse adjustment mechanism. During the operation, the film needs to be heated by high temperature. However, the various components in the transverse stretching machine will expand when heated. For example, the track will stretch along its length after heating. The elongated track will squeeze the sprocket assembly, causing the sprocket assembly and the transverse adjustment mechanism to deform, seriously affecting the transverse stretching quality of the PI film.
[0010] 6. The secondary annealing device is an offline device used after the PI film is formed. Its purpose is to eliminate the internal stress of the film and improve the tensile strength of the film. The existing secondary annealing device uses electric heating tubes for heating. This method has low thermal efficiency and uneven temperature distribution, and cannot effectively eliminate the internal stress of the film. Summary of the Invention

[0057] The beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows:
[0058] 1. Compared with the prior art, the polyimide film production line provided by the present invention provides an overhead section inside the drying box to separate the interior of the drying box into an upper drying tunnel and a lower drying tunnel, so that there is no need to heat the overhead section during operation; and the outer track in the traction system is provided outside the horizontal pull box to reduce the structure of the horizontal pull box, effectively reducing the total heating space inside the drying box and the horizontal pull box, making the structure more compact and reducing heat loss due to heat transfer, thereby reducing energy consumption and production costs.
[0059] 2. Compared with the prior art, the drying box of the steel strip casting machine of the polyimide film production line provided by the present invention fully takes into account the needs of disassembly and assembly of the steel strip in the later stage, and satisfies the disassembly and assembly of the steel strip with minimal disassembly and assembly workload. The frame of the drying box is cleverly provided with lifting rings and beam lifting ears, which can quickly and pre-maintain the positions of the middle and lower insulation layer, the middle and upper insulation layer and the top insulation layer before disassembling the steel strip. Even if the lower supporting column and the upper supporting column are removed to remove the obstruction to the steel strip, the positions of the middle and lower insulation layer, the middle and upper insulation layer and the top insulation layer will not change, thereby ensuring that the steel strip can be quickly disassembled and assembled, thereby improving work efficiency. At the same time, the frame of the drying box has a small amount of disassembly and assembly changes, which is convenient for later recovery.
[0060] 3. The maintenance insulation module of the steel strip casting machine in the polyimide film production line provided by the present invention provides an inspection port on the insulation outer body and a closable outer insulation door, so that staff can easily enter the interior to replace, clean, lubricate and troubleshoot parts, thereby simplifying the maintenance process. When maintenance is not required, the insulation inner body is filled in the inspection port to reduce heat transfer from the inspection port to the outside and reduce energy waste. Since a handle is provided on the front end surface of the insulation inner body and a plurality of universal balls are provided on the outer wall surface, it becomes easier to extract and insert the insulation inner body, which reduces the workload of the operator and improves work efficiency.
[0061] 4. Compared with the prior art, the passive drum deflection correction structure in the polyimide film production line provided by the present invention automatically determines the offset of the steel strip based on changes in tension sensed by a pressure sensing component. This structure then coordinates with the drive mechanism and screw lifter to dynamically correct the steel strip, ensuring that the steel strip is always centered, thus increasing its service life. It also ensures that the polyimide slurry is evenly distributed across the steel strip surface during the casting process, thereby ensuring consistent thickness uniformity of the polyimide film and improving the product quality of the polyimide film. Furthermore, the ingenious use of the self-aligning properties of the spherical roller bearing simplifies deflection correction. Under the action of the deflection correction force, the passive drum can flexibly change its axial position to adapt to different deflection correction situations, while also providing a certain degree of fault tolerance for passive drum installation.
[0062] 5. The transverse stretching machine in the polyimide film production line provided by the present invention comprises a driven sprocket assembly disposed at the inlet end of a box, a driving sprocket assembly disposed at the outlet end of the box, and multiple amplitude modulation mechanisms disposed at equal intervals within the box. Furthermore, an inner track located within the box and an outer track located outside the box are disposed between the driving sprocket assembly and the driven sprocket assembly, and the amplitude modulation mechanisms are capable of adjusting the spacing between the two inner tracks. A chain circulates around the driving sprocket assembly, the outer track, the driven sprocket assembly, and the inner track. At the inlet end, multiple clamps secure both sides of the PI film and, under the traction of the inner track, continuously transversely stretch the PI film. Since the outer track is disposed outside the box, the number of components within the box can be reduced, thereby reducing the size of the box, making the box structure more compact and reducing energy consumption.
[0063] 6. The sprocket mechanism in the polyimide film production line provided by the present invention adjusts the distance between the two sprocket assemblies by setting a first translation mechanism to be suitable for stretching PI films of different widths; and adjusts the installation position of the sprocket on each sprocket assembly by setting a second translation mechanism to adjust the tension of the chain to ensure that the PI film can be smoothly pulled forward for transportation; in addition, a first guide rail is set on the transverse moving plate, and the longitudinal moving plate can be slidably set on the first guide rail. When the rail is deformed by heat, it pushes the longitudinal moving plate to move a corresponding distance along the first guide rail to avoid the sprocket assembly and the first translation mechanism from being squeezed by the rail and deformed, thereby ensuring the transverse stretching quality of the PI film.
[0064] 7. The secondary annealing device in the polyimide film production line provided by the present invention is sequentially provided with a first traction device, an annealing furnace, and a second traction device. The PI film passes through the annealing furnace under the traction of the first traction device and the second traction device, and is finally wound up by the winding unit; a plurality of far-infrared ceramic heating plates are arranged in the annealing furnace to heat the PI film. The heating efficiency is high and the temperature distribution in the box is uniform, which can well eliminate the internal stress of the PI film and improve the tensile strength of the PI film.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0105] First embodiment
[0106] In this embodiment, the “X-axis” is the width direction and the transverse direction of the transverse box body 7 ; the “Y-axis” is the length direction and the longitudinal direction of the transverse box body 7 , that is, the conveying direction of the polyimide film.
[0107] Please refer to Figures 1-13. The present invention provides a polyimide film production line, including a steel strip casting machine A, a peeling transition unit B, a transverse stretching machine C, a detection unit D, an annealing unit E and a winding unit F arranged in sequence. The steel strip casting machine A includes a drying box, an active drum mechanism arranged at one end of the drying box near the peeling transition unit B, a passive drum mechanism arranged at the other end of the drying box, a waist-shaped steel strip pulled by the active drum mechanism and the passive drum mechanism, an extrusion die set on the active drum mechanism, and a lead-out roller set below the extrusion die; the transverse stretching machine C includes a transverse stretching box body 7, a conveying system and a second nitrogen generating assembly, a heating system 10 is provided in the transverse stretching box body 7, an inlet end 71 is provided at one end of the transverse stretching box body 7 near the peeling transition unit B, and an outlet end is provided at the other end. End 72; the conveying system includes two symmetrically arranged traction mechanisms 8 and amplitude modulation mechanisms 9, the traction mechanism 8 includes a driven sprocket assembly 81 arranged near the inlet end 71, a driving sprocket assembly 82 arranged near the outlet end 72, and a chain 83 sleeved on the driving sprocket assembly 82 and the driven sprocket assembly 81, and the chain 83 is provided with a plurality of clamps 84 for clamping the polyimide film, and an inner track 85 located in the horizontal pulling box body 7 and an outer track 86 located outside the horizontal pulling box body 7 are provided between the driving sprocket assembly 82 and the driven sprocket assembly 81, and a plurality of amplitude modulation mechanisms 9 are arranged at equal intervals in the horizontal pulling box body 7, and the inner tracks 85 on the two traction mechanisms 8 are connected to the output end of the amplitude modulation mechanism 9 to adjust the distance between the two inner tracks 85; the second nitrogen generating assembly is used to transport nitrogen to the horizontal pulling box body 7.
[0108] Before transverse stretching, it is necessary to adjust the driven sprocket assembly 81, the driving sprocket assembly 82 and the amplitude modulation mechanism 9 according to the width of the PI film, wherein the distance between the two driven sprocket assemblies 81 is adjusted to the width of the PI film when it enters the entrance end 71 of the box body 1, the distance between the two driving sprocket assemblies 82 is adjusted to the width required after the PI film is stretched, and multiple amplitude modulation mechanisms 9 are adjusted to adjust the distance between the two inner rails 85, so that the inner rail 85 extends from the driven sprocket assembly 81 toward the driving sprocket assembly 82, that is, the distance between the two inner rails 85 gradually increases, thereby realizing continuous transverse stretching of the PI film.
[0109] During operation, the polyimide film raw material is added to the mixer, extruded through the extrusion die and cast onto the steel belt to form a polyimide slurry. The steel belt is first pulled by the active drum mechanism and the passive drum mechanism to transport the polyimide slurry into the drying tunnel. The polyimide slurry on the steel belt is dried and solidified to achieve preliminary heat setting. Then the steel belt carries the polyimide slurry and turns at the passive drum mechanism to enter the drying tunnel. It is then dried and solidified again to form a polyimide film. The polyimide film is cast through the lead-out roller to the stripping transition unit B. The polyimide film trimmed by the stripping transition unit B enters the transverse stretching machine C, and the second nitrogen generating assembly supplies nitrogen to the transverse stretching box 7. The chains 83 of the two traction mechanisms 8 move around the driven sprocket assembly 81, the inner track 85, the driving sprocket assembly 82 and the outer track 86. A plurality of clamps 84 clamp the two sides of the polyimide film in turn to pull the polyimide film forward. The heating system 10 heats the polyimide film so that the polyimide film undergoes imidization reaction in the transverse stretching box 7. Under the traction of the inner track 85, the chain 83 realizes continuous transverse stretching of the polyimide film to prevent the polyimide film from shrinking during the imidization process. After leaving the transverse stretching machine C, the polyimide film enters the detection unit D and the annealing unit E in turn, and is finally wound up by the winding unit F.
[0110] Please refer to Figure 2. By setting the outer rail 86 outside the transverse pull box 7, the components located inside the transverse pull box 7 can be reduced, thereby reducing the structure of the transverse pull box 7, making the structure of the transverse pull box 7 more compact, and reducing the heat loss transferred to the outer rail 86, thereby reducing heat energy loss; in addition, reducing the size of the transverse pull box 7 means reducing the space inside the transverse pull box 7, thereby reducing the energy consumption of the heating system 10 and reducing production costs.
[0111] Compared with the prior art, the total internal heating space of the horizontal pulling box 7 is reduced, so that the structure of the polyimide film production line is compact, energy consumption is reduced, and heat loss is effectively reduced.
[0112] It should be noted that the aforementioned peeling transition unit B, detection unit D, annealing unit E, and winding unit F are all prior art, and their specific structures and operating principles are not further described. The peeling transition unit B includes a clamping device, a floating roller, a pulling roller, a pressure roller, an adjusting roller, an electrostatic eliminator, an auxiliary winding device, an upper clamping device, and a film break detection device. The clamping device prevents curling on both sides of the film, and the floating roller balances the tension, preventing stretching, shrinkage, and film breakage, ensuring that the polyimide film enters the transverse stretching machine C smoothly. The detection unit D includes a cutter device, a storage device, an ultrasonic dust removal device, a thickness gauge, and a defect detection device. The cutter device removes waste edges from both sides of the polyimide film, which are then vacuumed into the storage device. The ultrasonic dust removal device removes dust particles adsorbed on the surface of the polyimide film. The thickness gauge detects the thickness of the finished film, and the defect detection device detects product defects in the finished film. The annealing unit E eliminates internal stress in the polyimide film, improving the material's structure and properties. The winding unit F winds the continuous polyimide film into a roll.
[0113] Referring to Figures 2 and 4 , the transverse stretching machine C in this embodiment further includes first protective covers 73 symmetrically positioned on either side of the transverse stretching housing 7 , with the outer rail 86 positioned within the first protective covers 73 . Specifically, a plurality of L-shaped brackets 74 are secured to each side of the transverse stretching housing 7 , with the outer rail 86 positioned on these brackets to enhance the stability of the outer rail 86 . The first protective covers 73 not only protect the outer rail 86 , but also insulate the chain 83 and clamp 84 that pass around the outer rail 86 , minimizing heat loss.
[0114] Similarly, the driven sprocket assembly 81 and the driving sprocket assembly 82 are respectively provided with a second protective cover 75 to protect the driven sprocket assembly 81 and the driving sprocket assembly 82 and to keep the chain 83 and the clamp 84 warm.
[0115] 4 and 5 , the driving sprocket assembly 82 includes a first bracket 821, a first slide 822 slidably arranged on the first bracket 821, a first lateral translation mechanism 823 arranged on the first bracket 821, and a first fixed seat 824 arranged on the first bracket 821. The first slide 822 is rotatably connected to the first movable sprocket 825. A driving assembly 826 for driving the first movable sprocket 825 to rotate is provided between the first slide 822 and the output end of the first lateral translation mechanism 823. The first fixed seat 824 is rotatably connected to the first fixed sprocket 827. One end of the inner rail 85 is provided on the first slide 822, and one end of the outer rail 86 is provided on the first bracket 821. Through the above-mentioned setting, the first lateral translation mechanism 823 drives the first slide 822 to move horizontally along the X-axis to adjust the installation position of the first movable sprocket 825, and the driving assembly 826 drives the first movable sprocket 825 to rotate to realize the circular motion of the driving chain 83 around the driving sprocket assembly 82, the outer track 86, the driven sprocket assembly 81 and the inner track 85.
[0116] Optionally, the first lateral translation mechanism 823 can be a motor-driven ball screw transmission assembly motion mechanism to achieve horizontal movement of the drive assembly 826; the drive assembly 826 can use a motor-driven reducer as a power source, and the reducer drives the first movable sprocket 825 to rotate.
[0117] It should be understood that the positions of the first movable sprockets 825 on the two driving sprocket assemblies 82 need to be adjusted simultaneously so that the two first movable sprockets 825 are symmetrically arranged to stretch the polyimide film to a desired width.
[0118] 4 and 6 , the driven sprocket assembly 81 includes a second bracket 811, a transverse moving plate 812 slidably arranged on the second bracket 811, a second transverse translation mechanism 813 arranged on the second bracket 811, a longitudinal moving plate 814 slidably arranged on the transverse moving plate 812, a longitudinal translation mechanism 815 arranged on the longitudinal moving plate 814, a second slide 816 arranged at the output end of the longitudinal translation mechanism 815, and a second fixed seat 817 arranged on the second bracket 811; the transverse moving plate 812 is connected to the output end of the second transverse translation mechanism 813, and the translation direction of the longitudinal moving plate 814 is perpendicular to the translation direction of the transverse moving plate 812; a second movable sprocket 818 is rotatably connected to the second slide 816, and a second fixed sprocket 819 is rotatably connected to the second fixed seat 817; the other end of the inner rail 85 is arranged on the longitudinal moving plate 814, and the other end of the outer rail 86 is arranged on the second bracket 811. Through the above-mentioned setting, the second transverse translation mechanism 813 drives the transverse movable plate 812 to move horizontally along the X-axis to adjust the installation position of the second movable sprocket 818 in the X-axis direction, so as to be suitable for conveying polyimide films of different widths into the transverse pulling box 7; and the longitudinal translation mechanism 815 drives the second fixed seat 817 to move horizontally along the Y-axis to adjust the installation position of the second movable sprocket 818 in the Y-axis direction to adjust the tension of the chain 83.
[0119] Furthermore, two parallel guide rails are provided on the transverse movable plate 812, and a slider slidably connected to the guide rails is provided at the bottom of the longitudinal movable plate 814. Under the action of the inner rail 85, the longitudinal movable plate 814 can be pushed to move horizontally along the guide rail, that is, to move horizontally along the Y-axis seat. Since the heating system 10 is required to heat the polyimide film during the transverse stretching process, the temperature in the transverse pulling box 7 rises, causing the inner rail 85 to expand due to the heat and extend along its length to push the longitudinal movable plate 814 to move along the guide rail. The distance it moves is determined by the length of the inner rail 85 extended after being heated. After the production process is completed, the heating system 10 stops heating, the temperature in the transverse pulling box 7 gradually drops to room temperature, and the inner rail 85 recovers its deformation, thereby pulling the longitudinal movable plate 814 to reset. It can be seen that the longitudinal movable plate 814 can adaptively translate a corresponding distance according to the changes caused by the thermal deformation of the inner track 85, avoiding the deformation of the driven sprocket assembly 81 due to the squeezing of the inner track 85, thereby ensuring the transverse stretching quality of the polyimide film.
[0120] In this embodiment, the two driven sprocket assemblies 81 share a second lateral translation mechanism 813. Specifically, the second lateral translation mechanism 813 includes a motor-driven ball screw transmission assembly to move, and the screw of the ball screw transmission assembly has two sections of threads with opposite rotation directions, so as to drive the two lateral moving plates 812 to move toward or away from each other synchronously.
[0121] In this embodiment, the longitudinal translation mechanism 815 may be a cylinder to push the second slide 816 to move horizontally along the Y-axis.
[0122] In this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 4 , the distance between the second movable sprocket 818 and the second fixed sprocket 819 is relatively short, and the chain 83 can be directly wound from the second fixed sprocket 819 to the second movable sprocket 818 .
[0123] In other embodiments, the distance between the second movable sprocket 818 and the second fixed sprocket 819 may be larger to prevent the chain 83 from sagging when it passes from the second fixed sprocket 819 to the second movable sprocket 818. As shown in Figures 7 and 8, a follower guide mechanism 87 is further included. The follower guide mechanism 87 includes a fixed frame 871 rotatably connected to the second fixed seat 817, a movable frame 872 rotatably connected to the second slide 816, and a docking track 873 provided on the fixed frame 871. A telescopic assembly 874 is provided between the docking track 873 and the movable frame 872. The docking track 873 is always located on a tangent line between the second fixed sprocket 819 and the second movable sprocket 818.
[0124] It should be noted that the rotation center of the fixed frame 871 is coaxial with the axis of the second fixed sprocket 819 ; the rotation center of the movable frame 872 is coaxial with the axis of the second movable sprocket 818 .
[0125] When adjusting the position of the second movable sprocket 818, the fixed frame 871 swings about the axis of the second fixed sprocket 819, and the movable frame 872 moves with the second slide 816 and swings about the axis of the second movable sprocket 818. Under the guidance of the telescopic assembly 874, the docking track 873 is always located on the tangent line of the second fixed sprocket 819 and the second movable sprocket 818, thereby guiding and supporting the chain 83. The structure of the docking track 873 and the chain 83 is shown in Figure 9.
[0126] In addition, when the distance between the second movable sprocket 818 and the second fixed sprocket 819 is large, the translation distance of the second movable sprocket 818 can be increased, which is further suitable for stretching films of various widths and suitable for horizontally stretching films with larger widths.
[0127] 8 , the telescopic assembly 874 includes a fixed block 8741 mounted on the movable frame 872, a guide rod 8742 having one end mounted on the fixed block 8741, and a guide seat 8743 mounted on the docking track 873. The guide rod 8742 is slidably connected to the guide seat 8743. When the second movable sprocket 818 changes position, the movable frame 872 changes position along with the second slide 816, causing the guide rod 8742 to slide along the guide seat 8743 to compensate for the change in distance between the docking track 873 and the movable frame 872, thereby ensuring that the docking track 873 is always tangent to the second movable sprocket 818 and the second fixed sprocket 819.
[0128] Likewise, the structure in which the second fixed sprocket 819 is rotatably connected to the second fixed seat 817 is similar to the structure in which the second movable sprocket 818 is rotatably connected to the second slide 816 , and reference may be made to the second slide 816 for details.
[0129] Similarly, the driving sprocket assembly 82 may be provided with a follower guide mechanism 87 to guide and support the chain 83 that is wound from the first movable sprocket 825 to the first fixed sprocket 827 .
[0130] Referring to Figures 10 and 11, the amplitude modulation mechanism 9 includes an amplitude modulation track 91, a width adjustment device 92 and a slide 93. The two ends of the amplitude modulation track 91 are respectively connected to the two sides of the horizontal pull box 7. The two slides 93 are slidably arranged on the amplitude modulation track 91. The output end of the width adjustment device 92 is connected to the two slides 93 so that the two slides 93 can move toward or away from each other synchronously; an adjustment seat 94 is provided on the top of each slide 93, and an adjustment slot 941 is opened on the top of the adjustment seat 94, and the length extension direction of the adjustment slot 941 is perpendicular to the translation direction of the slide 93. The adjustment slot 941 is slidably connected to a positioning column 95, and the positioning column 95 is connected to the inner track 85. Specifically, the width adjustment device 92 includes a drive motor 921 arranged on the side wall of the horizontal pulling box 7 and a width adjustment screw rod 922 rotatably connected to both sides of the horizontal pulling box 7. The width adjustment screw rod 922 is provided with two sections of threads with opposite rotation directions. The two slides 93 are respectively engaged with the width adjustment screw rod 922 through screw nuts. The drive motor 921 drives the width adjustment screw rod 922 to rotate so that the two slides 93 move toward or away from each other synchronously along the amplitude modulation track 91 to adjust the distance between the inner tracks 85 located at this position. However, during the adjustment process, the positioning column 95 slides along the adjustment slot 941 to compensate for the change in the center distance between the two adjacent amplitude modulation mechanisms 9 and the slides 93 located on the same side.
[0131] Furthermore, referring to Figure 12 , the AM track 91 is made of rectangular steel. The slide 93 includes two symmetrically arranged side plates 931 and two connecting plates 932 disposed between the side plates 931. The AM track 91 is disposed between the side plates 931. Rollers 933 are rotatably connected to the side plates 931, and the rollers 933 are slidably connected to the AM track 91. The two side plates 931 guide the movement of the slide 93, preventing it from deflecting during movement.
[0132] Preferably, the inner rail 85 includes a plurality of track segments 851 connected in sequence, with a positioning post 95 positioned at the connection between two adjacent track segments 851. The mating structure of the inner rail 85 and the chain 83 is shown in FIG13 . The inner rail 85 is provided with a guide portion 852 that cooperates with the chain 83 and can guide and support the chain 83. The chain 83 and the clamp 84 are both conventionally constructed, and their specific structures and operating principles are not further described. The adjustment slot 941 is an inverted T-shaped slot, and the lower end of the positioning post 95 is provided with a sliding portion 951 that is slidably connected to the adjustment slot 941. The middle portion of the adjustment slot 941 has an insertion hole 942 that matches the sliding portion 951. During assembly, the positioning post 95 can slide into the adjustment slot 941 through the insertion hole 942 and, guided by the adjustment slot 941, can slide along the conveying direction of the polyimide film. In addition, since the sliding portion 951 is an arc surface, the sliding portion 951 can also swing at a small angle around its axis while sliding along the adjustment groove 941 to cooperate with the position adjustment of the inner rail 85.
[0133] Preferably, a lubricating oil groove 943 is provided on the top of the adjustment seat 94. By adding lubricating oil into the lubricating oil groove 943, the friction between the inner track 85 and the adjustment seat 94 and the friction between the positioning column 95 and the adjustment groove 941 are reduced, thereby ensuring the smoothness of the position adjustment of the inner track 85.
[0134] It should be understood that by splicing multiple track segments 851 into a long inner track 85, on the one hand, it provides good support for the inner track 85, and on the other hand, it can reduce the difficulty of assembling the inner track 85. With the cooperation of each amplitude modulation mechanism 9, the inclination angle of the inner track 85 can be adjusted, so that the polyimide film is pulled by the clamps 84 on both sides and is continuously stretched laterally under the guidance of the two left-right symmetrical inner tracks 85.
[0135] Likewise, the outer track 86 may also be formed by splicing together multiple track segments to reduce the difficulty of assembling the outer track 86 .
[0136] Preferably, referring to Figure 3, the heating system 10 is sequentially provided with a first heating zone 101, a second heating zone 102 and a third heating zone 103 along the conveying direction of the polyimide film, the temperature of the second heating zone 102 is higher than that of the first heating zone 101 and the third heating zone 103, and an exhaust mechanism 104 is provided at the top of the first heating zone 101 and the third heating zone 103. Specifically, the first heating zone 101, the second heating zone 102 and the third heating zone 103 are all provided with electric heating tubes. The electric heating tubes of the first heating zone 101 are arranged below the polyimide film, the electric heating tubes of the second heating zone 102 are arranged above and below the polyimide film, and the electric heating tubes of the third heating zone 103 are arranged below the polyimide film, so that the temperature in the horizontal stretching box 7 gradually increases and then gradually decreases along the direction of the inlet end 71 and the outlet end 72, and an exhaust mechanism 104 is arranged at the top of the first heating zone 101 and the third heating zone 103. The exhaust mechanism 104 discharges the gas in the horizontal stretching box 7 so that the temperature of the inlet end 71 and the outlet end 72 will not be too high, thereby avoiding a large temperature difference between this position and the workshop, thereby affecting the transverse stretching effect of the polyimide film.
[0137] Second embodiment
[0138] Please refer to Figures 14 to 26. The steel strip casting machine of the PI film production line provided in this embodiment includes a drying box 1, an active drum mechanism 2 arranged at one end of the drying box 1, a passive drum mechanism 3 arranged at the other end of the drying box 1, and a waist-shaped steel strip 4 pulled by the active drum mechanism 2 and the passive drum mechanism 3. The drying box 1 includes a frame 11, an outer insulation structure 5 arranged on both sides of the frame 11, an upper air duct assembly 193 and a lower air duct assembly 194 arranged on the frame 11, a hot air unit for providing hot air to the upper air duct assembly 193 and the lower air duct assembly 194, and a nitrogen generating assembly; the frame 11 includes a bottom insulation layer 111, a middle and lower insulation layer 112, a middle and upper insulation layer 113, and a top insulation layer 114, which are arranged in sequence from bottom to top and parallel to each other; the middle and lower insulation layer 112 and the middle and upper insulation layer 113 are connected by a plurality of middle support columns 12, and some of the middle support columns 12 are connected. The side of the column 12 is fixed with a beam lug 13 for cooperating with the longitudinal beam; the bottom insulation layer 111 and the middle and lower insulation layer 112 are connected by a lower support column 142; the top insulation layer 114 and the middle and upper insulation layer 113 are connected by an upper support column 144; a plurality of hanging rings 151 are provided on the top surface of the top insulation layer 114; an upper baking hole is formed between the top insulation layer 114 and the middle and upper insulation layer 113 for the upper straight section of the steel strip 4 to pass through The lower drying tunnel 161 is formed between the bottom insulation layer 111 and the middle and lower insulation layer 112, and the lower straight section of the steel strip 4 passes through is formed. An overhead interval 163 is formed between the middle and upper insulation layer 113 and the middle and lower insulation layer 112. The upper air duct assembly 193 is arranged at the bottom of the top insulation layer 114, and the lower air duct assembly 194 is arranged at the top of the bottom insulation layer 111; the nitrogen generating assembly is used to transport nitrogen to the upper drying tunnel 161 and the lower drying tunnel 162.
[0139] During operation, the polyimide film 7 raw material is added to the mixer, extruded through the extrusion die 6 and cast onto the steel belt 4 to form a polyimide slurry. Nitrogen is delivered to the upper drying channel 161 and the lower drying channel 162 by the nitrogen generating assembly. The steel belt 4 is first pulled by the active drum mechanism 2 and the passive drum mechanism 3 to convey the polyimide slurry into the upper drying channel 161. Then, the upper air duct assembly 193 blows hot air to dry and solidify the polyimide slurry on the steel belt 4 to achieve preliminary heat setting. Then, the steel belt carrying the polyimide slurry turns at the passive drum mechanism 3 and enters the lower drying channel 162. Then, the lower air duct assembly 194 blows hot air to dry and solidify the polyimide slurry on the steel belt 4 again to form the polyimide film 7. Finally, the polyimide film 7 is cast onto the stripping transition mechanism via the guide roller. The other components of the PI film production line in this embodiment can be referred to the first embodiment and will not be repeated here.
[0140] Please refer to Figure 18. By setting an overhead section 163 inside the drying box 1, the interior of the drying box 1 can be divided into an upper drying channel 161 and a lower drying channel 162. Compared with the interior of the drying box 1 being completely open and connected, it has the following characteristics: on the one hand, it can form a horizontal hot air flow path in the upper drying channel 161 and the lower drying channel 162, so that the hot air can maintain a larger and appropriate wind pressure, and the polyimide slurry on the steel strip can be blown and solidified more concentratedly and stably, thereby improving the forming speed and effect of the polyimide film; on the other hand, the overhead section 163 means that there is no need to heat this area, which greatly reduces the total heating space, and also reduces the heat loss caused by the heat transfer of hot air to the area, which is more energy-saving and environmentally friendly.
[0141] When the steel belt needs to be disassembled for maintenance after long-term use, the outer insulation structure 5 on one side of the drying box 1 is first disassembled to open the interior of the drying box 1, and then the hook and ring 151 of the overhead crane or the hook and ring 151 of the electric hoist installed on the roof are used to maintain the position of the top insulation layer 114 in a hoisting manner. Then the longitudinal beam is inserted into the beam lug 13, and the longitudinal beam supports the middle and lower insulation layer 112 and the middle and upper insulation layer 113 to maintain the position of the middle and lower insulation layer 112 and the middle and upper insulation layer 113, and the bottom insulation layer 111 is directly supported by the ground to maintain its position unchanged. Then the frame 11 only needs to disassemble the lower support column 142 and the upper support column 144 on the side of the steel belt unloading direction to solve the obstruction of the lower support column 142 and the upper support column 144 to the movement of the steel belt 4, ensuring that the steel belt 4 is efficiently moved longitudinally to achieve disassembly. It can be understood that although part of the lower support column 142 and the upper support column 144 have been disassembled, the positions of the bottom insulation layer 111, the middle and lower insulation layer 112, the middle and upper insulation layer 113 and the top insulation layer 114 are stably maintained without displacement, so it will not affect the setting of the upper air duct assembly 193 and the lower air duct assembly 194, that is, the disassembly and assembly of the steel belt 4 does not require modification or disassembly of the upper air duct assembly 193 and the lower air duct assembly 194, ensuring that it will not affect the normal use of the upper air duct assembly 193 and the lower air duct assembly 194, and there is no need to spend time debugging the upper air duct assembly 193 and the lower air duct assembly 194 in the later stage.
[0142] Compared with the prior art, the drying box of the steel strip casting machine provided by the present invention fully takes into account the needs of later disassembly and assembly of the steel strip, and meets the disassembly and assembly of the steel strip with minimal disassembly and assembly workload. The frame 11 of the drying box is cleverly provided with a lifting ring 151 and a beam lug 13, which can quickly and pre-maintain the positions of the middle and lower insulation layer 112, the middle and upper insulation layer 113 and the top insulation layer 114 before disassembling the steel strip. Even if the lower support column 142 and the upper support column 144 are removed to remove the obstruction to the steel strip, the positions of the middle and lower insulation layer 112, the middle and upper insulation layer 113 and the top insulation layer 114 will not change. On the one hand, it ensures that the steel strip can be quickly disassembled and assembled, thereby improving work efficiency. On the other hand, the frame 11 of the drying box 1 has a small amount of disassembly and assembly changes, which is convenient for later recovery.
[0143] Specifically, the beam lug 3 comprises a base mounting plate and a square-shaped insert plate. One side of the insert plate is welded to the base mounting plate, ensuring the overall structural strength and stability. The square-shaped insert plate design allows the beam lug 3 to quickly engage with the square tubular longitudinal beam, ensuring that the longitudinal beam can bear the entire weight of the middle and lower insulation layer 12 and the middle and upper insulation layer 13, providing convenient operation during disassembly and maintenance.
[0144] Furthermore, the beam insertion lugs 13 are provided with four, two of which can be inserted by the same longitudinal beam, forming a left lug assembly. The remaining two beam insertion lugs 13 can be inserted by the same longitudinal beam, forming a right lug assembly. The left and right lug assemblies are arranged symmetrically. The symmetrical arrangement of the left and right lug assemblies ensures that at least two longitudinal beams jointly bear the weight of the middle and lower insulation layer 112 and the middle and upper insulation layer 113, resulting in a reasonable weight distribution. This not only prevents the longitudinal beams from breaking due to excessive load, but also improves the balance and stability of the middle and lower insulation layer 112 and the middle and upper insulation layer 113 after they are erected.
[0145] The upper air duct assemblies 193 are provided with multiple and laterally spaced apart arrangements, and upper concave cavities are formed between adjacent upper air duct assemblies 193. However, the upper concave cavities will cause turbulence in the hot air in the upper drying tunnel 161, affecting the drying and curing effect of the hot air on the polyimide slurry. Therefore, each upper concave cavity is provided with a sealing plate hanger 171 fixed to the bottom surface of the top insulation layer 114, and a flat upper guide sealing plate 172 is provided on the sealing plate hanger 171; the upper guide sealing plate 172 covers the space of the upper concave cavity, so that the hot air in the upper drying tunnel 161 can stably and centrally heat the polyimide slurry on the steel strip.
[0146] Furthermore, the cover hanger 171 is screwed to the middle and upper insulation layer 113 via first inner support posts 173. This arrangement allows the first inner support posts 173 to support the cover hanger 171, thereby strengthening the support provided by the middle and upper insulation layer 113 to the interior of the top insulation layer 114, thereby reducing deformation or collapse of the interior of the top insulation layer 114 due to lack of support. It is understood that before removing or installing the steel strips, the first inner support posts 173 must be removed to eliminate any obstruction to the movement of the steel strips.
[0147] Similarly, the downwind duct components 194 are provided in plurality and are arranged at laterally intervals, and a lower concave cavity is formed between adjacent downwind duct components 194. However, the lower concave cavity will cause turbulence of the hot air in the upper drying tunnel 161, affecting the drying and curing effect of the hot air on the polyimide slurry. Each lower concave cavity is provided with a sealing plate bracket 174 fixed to the upper surface of the bottom insulation layer 111, and the sealing plate bracket 174 is provided with a flat lower guide sealing plate 175. The lower guide sealing plate 175 covers the space of the lower concave cavity, so that the hot air in the lower drying tunnel 162 can stably and centrally heat the polyimide slurry on the steel strip.
[0148] In fact, lower insulation pads 141 are fixedly provided on the top surfaces of both ends of the bottom insulation layer 111, and each lower insulation pad 141 is connected to the middle and lower insulation layer 112 via a lower support column 142; upper insulation pads 143 are provided on the bottom surfaces of both ends of the top insulation layer 114, and each upper insulation pad 143 is connected to the middle and upper insulation layer 113 via an upper support column 144. The provision of the upper insulation pads 143 and the lower insulation pads 141 is, on the one hand, to reduce the inlet and outlet of the steel strip in the drying box and reduce heat loss through the inlet and outlet, and on the other hand, the functions of the upper insulation pads 143 and the lower insulation pads 141 are the same as those of the upper guide sealing plate 172 and the lower guide sealing plate 175, which are also to compensate for the cavity problem.
[0149] Furthermore, the cover plate bracket 174 is screwed to the middle and lower insulation layer 112 via second inner support pillars 176. This arrangement strengthens the support provided by the bottom insulation layer 111 to the middle and upper insulation layer 113, thereby reducing deformation or collapse of the middle and upper insulation layer 113 due to lack of support. It is understood that before removing and installing the steel strip 4, the second inner support pillars 176 must be removed to eliminate any obstruction to the movement of the steel strip 4.
[0150] It should be understood that the upper drying tunnel 161 has multiple plate closure hangers 171 and upper guide plates 172 that cooperate with them. The size of each plate closure hanger 171 and upper guide plates 172 is determined by the size of the upper cavity. The lower drying tunnel 162 has multiple plate closure brackets 174 and lower guide plates 175 that cooperate with them. The size of each plate closure bracket 174 and lower guide plates 175 is determined by the size of the lower cavity.
[0151] Preferably, in order to rationally utilize the internal space of the overhead section 163, a static pressure box insulation layer 177 is provided on the middle and lower insulation layer 112, that is, the static pressure box is arranged in the overhead section and is wrapped by the static pressure box insulation layer 177. The static pressure box insulation layer 177 can reduce the heat loss of the hot air in the static pressure box, and better transfer the hot air through the static pressure box to the upper air duct assembly 193 and the lower air duct assembly 194.
[0152] Preferably, casters are provided on the bottom surface of the middle and lower insulation layers 12, so that the drying box has a movable function, which facilitates the adjustment of the position according to the actual position and enables the drying box to be better connected with upstream and downstream equipment.
[0153] Preferably, one end of the middle lower insulation layer 112 and the middle upper insulation layer 113 are connected by a first mounting plate 191, and the other end is connected by a second mounting plate 192. The first mounting plate 191 is connected to the active drum mechanism 2, and the second mounting plate 192 is connected to the passive drum mechanism 3.
[0154] In fact, the lower support column 42, the upper support column 44, the first inner layer support column 73, and the second inner layer support column 76 are all arranged at the two horizontal sides of the insulation layer to avoid obstruction to the normal movement and transmission of the steel belt.
[0155] Specifically, the outer insulation structure 5 includes an upper insulation layer 591, a hollow layer 592 and a lower insulation layer 593 spliced together from top to bottom. The upper insulation layer 591 is used to seal the upper drying tunnel 161, the hollow layer 592 is used to seal the overhead interval 163, and the lower insulation layer 593 is used to seal the lower drying tunnel 162. The upper insulation layer 591 and the lower insulation layer 593 both include an inspection and maintenance insulation module 594, an observation insulation module 595, and a splicing insulation module 596. The inspection and maintenance insulation module 594 and the observation insulation module 595 can be directly spliced left and right, and the two inspection and maintenance insulation modules 594 are spliced through the splicing insulation module 596. The maintenance and insulation module 594 is provided with a maintenance port 511, through which staff can enter the interior of the steel strip casting machine to perform component maintenance, replacement, cleaning and lubrication, and troubleshooting. The observation and insulation module 595 is provided with an observation window, through which staff can directly view the internal conditions of the steel strip casting machine.
[0156] Furthermore, the maintenance insulation module 594 is in a "convex" shape when projected from above, and the observation insulation module 595 is in an inverted "convex" shape when projected from above, so that the joint of the maintenance insulation module 594 and the observation insulation module 595 forms a stepped labyrinth seal. Compared with the planar splicing of the maintenance insulation module 594 and the observation insulation module 595, it can effectively reduce the heat transfer to the outside from the splicing gap between the maintenance insulation module 594 and the observation insulation module 595, thereby improving the insulation performance.
[0157] To standardize the structure of maintenance insulation module 594 and reduce the complexity of manufacturing maintenance insulation module 594, two maintenance insulation modules 594 are spliced together using a splicing insulation module 596. Splicing insulation module 596 also appears in an inverted "convex" shape when viewed from above. The splicing of maintenance insulation module 594 and splicing insulation module 596 forms a stepped labyrinth seal, which effectively reduces heat transfer from the splicing gap between maintenance insulation module 594 and splicing insulation module 596 to the outside, thereby improving thermal insulation performance.
[0158] Specifically, the maintenance and insulation module 594 includes an insulation outer body 51 having an inspection opening 511, an outer insulation door 52 for closing or opening the inspection opening 511, and an insulation inner body 53 disposed within the insulation outer body 51 and used to fill the inspection opening 511; the inspection opening 511 is a rectangular structure. In operation, the insulation inner body 53 needs to be installed to fill the inspection opening 511 to reduce heat loss through the inspection opening 511. During maintenance, the insulation inner body 53 is pulled out of the inspection opening 511 to open the inspection opening 511 for staff to enter. However, the insulation inner body 53 is heavy and has a certain volume, resulting in a very large friction between the insulation inner body 53 and the insulation outer body 51, making it very inconvenient for staff to pull out and put in the insulation inner body 53. This is not only time-consuming and labor-intensive, but also difficult to adjust the position of the insulation inner body 53.
[0159] Therefore, a handle 54 is provided on the front end surface of the heat-insulating inner body 53 , and a plurality of universal balls 55 are provided on the outer wall surface of the heat-insulating inner body 53 . The staff opens the outer insulation door 52, then holds the handle 54 of the insulation inner body 53, and then pulls out the insulation inner body 53. Since the universal ball 55 is mainly arranged on the bottom, left and right sides of the insulation inner body 53, the universal ball 55 located on the bottom of the insulation inner body 53 forms rolling friction with the inner wall surface of the insulation outer body 51, and the friction force is small. The staff only needs to use a small amount of force to smoothly pull out the insulation inner body 53 from the back to the front. At the same time, even if the left and right sides of the insulation inner body 53 are too close to the insulation outer body 51, the universal balls 55 on the left and right sides of the insulation inner body 53 greatly reduce the friction resistance formed by the left and right sides of the insulation inner body 53 and the inner wall surface of the insulation outer body 51. The staff can pull out the insulation inner body 53 smoothly and unimpeded, thereby releasing the inspection port 511 for the staff to enter the interior of the steel strip casting machine.
[0160] On the contrary, when the thermal insulation inner body 53 is to be installed, the staff holds the handle 54 of the thermal insulation inner body 53, then places the thermal insulation inner body 53 into the inspection port 511 of the thermal insulation outer body 51, and then gradually pushes the thermal insulation inner body 53 into the inspection port 511. The thrust is small, and the position of the thermal insulation inner body 53 can be flexibly adjusted during the pushing process to ensure that the thermal insulation inner body 53 is centered in the set position.
[0161] The maintenance and insulation module 594 of the steel strip casting machine simplifies the maintenance process by providing an inspection port 511 on the insulation outer body 51 and a closable outer insulation door 52, allowing staff to easily enter the interior to replace, clean, lubricate and troubleshoot parts. When maintenance is not required, the insulation inner body 53 is filled in the inspection port 511, reducing heat transfer from the inspection port 511 to the outside and reducing energy waste. Since the front end surface of the insulation inner body 53 is provided with a handle 54 and the outer wall surface is provided with multiple universal balls 55, it is easier to extract and insert the insulation inner body 53, reducing the workload of the operator and improving work efficiency.
[0162] Furthermore, the inspection opening 511 includes a first cavity 5111, a second cavity 5112, and a third cavity 5113, arranged sequentially from the inside out. The space of the first cavity 5111 is smaller than that of the second cavity 5112, forming a first transition step 5114 between the first and second cavities 5111 and 5112. The space of the second cavity 5112 is smaller than that of the third cavity 5113, forming a second transition step 5115 between the second and third cavities 5112 and 5113. The outer insulation door 52 is disposed in the third cavity 5113, and the insulation inner cavity 53 is disposed in the second cavity 5112. The insulation inner cavity 53 provides a primary layer of thermal insulation for the inspection opening 511, while the outer insulation door 52 provides a secondary layer of thermal insulation for the inspection opening 511. This dual insulation significantly reduces heat leakage and ensures the thermal insulation effect of the steel strip casting machine.
[0163] Furthermore, the rear end of the thermal insulation inner body 53 presses against the first transition step 5114 to form a seal. This arrangement effectively reduces heat transfer directly through the gap between the outer wall of the thermal insulation inner body 53 and the thermal insulation outer body 51. A rectangular sealing strip 56, made of high-temperature-resistant silicone, encloses the second transition step 5115. This sealing strip 56 effectively fills the gap between the second transition step 5115 and the thermal insulation outer body 51, ensuring a good seal between the second chamber 5112 and the third chamber 5113 during operation, thereby minimizing heat leakage and energy waste.
[0164] Because of the strong hot air flow in the steel strip casting machine, the thermal insulation inner body 53 may be displaced by the hot air. Therefore, the thermal insulation inner body 53 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the thermal insulation outer body 51 via a limit lock 57. The limit lock 57 ensures that the thermal insulation inner body 53 is firmly connected to the inner wall of the thermal insulation outer body 51, preventing the thermal insulation inner body 53 from falling off or shifting due to vibration or other reasons during operation, thereby improving the stability and reliability of the equipment operation.
[0165] Preferably, the limiting lock 57 can be a sealing buckle or a hasp. The sealing buckle or hasp not only effectively secures the heat-insulating inner body 53, forming a tighter connection between it and the heat-insulating outer body 51, further improving the sealing and heat-insulating effect of the steel strip casting machine in operation, but also provides a convenient and fast connection method, allowing maintenance personnel to easily remove and install the inner body, thereby improving maintenance efficiency.
[0166] Considering that when disassembling and assembling the steel strip, the maintenance insulation module 594, the observation insulation module 595 and the splicing insulation module 596 need to be quickly disassembled and then tightly installed, the maintenance insulation module 594, the observation insulation module 595 and the splicing insulation module 596 are all provided with mounting holes 512, and the sides of the bottom insulation layer 111, the middle and lower insulation layer 112, the middle and upper insulation layer 113 and the top insulation layer 114 are provided with threaded holes 115 corresponding to the mounting holes 512, and the long screws pass through the mounting holes 512 and connect with the threaded holes 115. With this arrangement, when the steel strip needs to be replaced, the operator can easily remove the outer insulation mechanism by twisting and removing the long screw, thereby improving the maintainability and maintenance efficiency of the steel strip casting machine; it also ensures that when in working state, the insulation module can be tightly attached to the frame 11 and has a strong sealing performance.
[0167] In this embodiment, the insulation outer body 51, the insulation inner body 53, and the outer insulation door body 52 are provided with insulation cotton; this can effectively reduce heat transfer, provide good insulation effect, help maintain a stable production environment and reduce energy consumption. One side of the outer insulation door body 52 is connected to the insulation outer body 51 by a hinge 581, and the other side is connected to the insulation outer body 51 by a door lock 582. The connection design of the hinge 581 and the door lock 582 allows the outer insulation door body 52 to be easily opened or closed. The use of the door lock 582 helps to ensure that the door body forms a good seal with the insulation outer body 51 when closed, preventing heat leakage while also ensuring the safety of the workplace. The door lock 582 can use locks such as sealing buckles and hasps, which are simple to operate and have good sealing performance.
[0168] When the steel belt is reinstalled on the steel belt casting machine, the steel belt 4 is in a loose state, and the active drum mechanism 2 and the passive drum mechanism 3 need to be used to tension the steel belt to provide traction for the steel belt. However, due to the traction and manufacturing errors, the steel belt will deviate left and right during the transmission process, or even deviate from the track. On the one hand, it is easy to cause stress concentration on the steel belt 4, reduce the service life of the steel belt, and affect the connectivity and stability of production; on the other hand, due to the instability of the steel belt, it is difficult to ensure that the polyimide slurry is evenly distributed on the surface of the steel belt during the casting process, thereby affecting the thickness uniformity of the polyimide film 7, and further affecting the quality of the polyimide film 7. Therefore, the passive drum mechanism 3 must have not only a tensioning function but also a deviation correction function.
[0169] Specifically, the passive drum mechanism 3 includes a passive drum 31, two sliding sockets 32 respectively connected to the two end shafts of the passive drum 31, and the same number of screw lifters 34 as the sliding sockets 32 and corresponding one to one. The lifter bodies of the two screw lifters 34 are fixed by a mounting plate 341, the input shaft of each screw lifter 34 is connected to the corresponding driving mechanism 36, and the output end of each screw lifter 34 is connected to the side of the sliding socket 32 through a pressure sensing component 35; the sliding socket 32 is arranged on the sliding socket 32 through a guide rail 331 and a slider 332, and the guide rail 331 extends horizontally. The shaft sleeves at both ends of the passive drum 31 are provided with spherical roller bearings 37 connected to the corresponding sliding socket 32.
[0170] When the passive drum 31 tensions the steel belt, the two driving mechanisms 36 synchronously drive the output rod of the screw lifter 34 to extend, and then transmit it to the sliding receiving seat 32 through the pressure sensing component 35, so that the passive drum 31 moves in the direction away from the active drum. At this time, the tension of the steel belt on the passive drum 31 will be sensed by the pressure sensing component 35, that is, the pressure sensing component 35 senses that the tension value is getting larger and larger. When the tension value reaches the set tension value and the values sensed by the two pressure sensors are the same, it means that the steel belt is properly tensioned and the axis of the passive drum 31 is in a left-right straight state.
[0171] As the steel belt is pulled and rotated, the steel belt 4 on the passive drum 31 will dynamically deviate left and right, or even detach from the passive drum 31. At this time, the steel belt must be corrected, that is, adjusted to a centered position. It is understood that once the steel belt deviates, the tension values sensed by the two pressure sensing components 35 will change. At this time, based on the comparison of the tension value changes, the offset of the steel belt 4 is determined, and then one of the drive mechanisms 36 is controlled to drive the screw lifter 34 to move, applying a corrective force to the sliding support 32. Since the sliding support 32 is constrained by the guide rail 331 and the slider 332, the sliding support 32 actually does not change position. However, the spherical roller bearing 37 on the sliding support 32 has an allowable aligning angle of 1° to 2.5°. Under the action of the corrective force, the center position of the passive drum 31 end shaft on the spherical roller bearing 37 will change, causing the axis of the passive drum 31 to deviate slightly left and right, thereby driving the steel belt 4 to dynamically return to the centered position of the passive drum 31. It is understandable that, during the movement of the steel belt 4 , the passive drum mechanism 3 performs dynamic deviation correction on the steel belt 4 .
[0172] The passive drum mechanism 3 senses changes in tension through the pressure sensing component 35, allowing the structure to automatically determine the offset of the steel strip. It then coordinates with the drive mechanism 36 and the screw lifter 34 to dynamically correct the steel strip, ensuring that the steel strip is always centered. This not only increases the service life of the steel strip, but also ensures that the polyimide slurry is evenly distributed on the surface of the steel strip during the casting process, thereby ensuring the uniformity of the thickness of the polyimide film 7 and improving the product quality of the polyimide film 7. Furthermore, the ingenious use of the self-aligning characteristics of the spherical roller bearing 37 simplifies correction. Under the action of the correction force, the passive drum 31 can flexibly change the axial position of the passive drum 31 to adapt to different correction situations, while also providing a certain degree of fault tolerance for the installation of the passive drum 31. Specifically, the pressure sensing assembly 35 includes a fixed block 351, a weighing sensor 352, and a connecting shaft 353 connected in sequence. The fixed block 351 is fixed on the sliding supporting seat 32. The setting of the fixed block 351 enables the weighing sensor 352 to be firmly installed on the sliding supporting seat 32, maintaining the fixed position and stable working state of the weighing sensor 352, thereby improving the measurement accuracy; the connecting shaft 353 is connected to the output end of the screw lifter 34, so that the pressure sensing assembly 35 can accurately sense the force change state of the sliding supporting seat 32, thereby reflecting the tension of the passive drum 31 and the offset of the steel belt in real time.
[0173] Furthermore, the driving mechanism 36 includes a reducer 361 that is transmission-connected to the input end of the screw lifter 34 , and the input shaft of the reducer 361 is drive-connected to the motor 362 , and the motor 362 is connected to the control system to achieve automatic correction based on the feedback of the pressure sensing component 35 .
[0174] For situations requiring fine-tuning or manual intervention, manual operation allows for more direct and precise adjustments.
