Mattress Centrifugal Dehydration Rack for Automated Spin-Drying
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing mattress drying systems require manual intervention and are inefficient due to the need for cylindrical spin-drying tanks that hinder mattress entry and removal, leading to prolonged drying times and environmental water splashing.
Innovation Solution
A mattress centrifugal dehydration device with a frame body, dehydration assembly, and driving structures that facilitate automated mattress spin-drying through a transport channel, incorporating movable stop and loading members with drainage holes, and an enclosed chamber to prevent water splashing.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Productivity
If a cylindrical spin-drying tank is used, then dehydration efficiency is improved, but mattress entry and removal become difficult and manual intervention is required
Solution Approach 1:
Instead of using a traditional cylindrical spin-drying tank that requires manual loading and unloading, the patent inverts the approach by using a flat plate structure with the mattress placed horizontally between loading and stop members. This allows the mattress to be easily fed in and out automatically while still achieving effective dehydration through the spin-drying action of the rotating plate.
2Productivity
If a cylindrical spin-drying tank is used, then dehydration efficiency is improved, but automation is reduced due to required manual intervention
Solution Approach 1:
The patent transforms the automated feed-in and feed-out process by inverting from a vertical cylindrical tank to a horizontal plate structure, enabling automatic mattress handling. The loading member and stop member configuration allows the mattress to be automatically positioned and removed without manual intervention, fully integrating the spin-drying process into the automated production line.
3Device complexity
If traditional roller squeezing is used, then device complexity is low, but drying time is prolonged due to insufficient water discharge
Solution Approach 1:
The patent replaces the traditional mechanical roller squeezing system with a spin-drying mechanism. Instead of using rollers to mechanically press water out, the system uses a rotating dehydration plate that utilizes centrifugal force to rapidly extract water from the mattress, significantly reducing drying time while maintaining relatively simple device structure.
4Productivity
If spin-drying is implemented, then dehydration efficiency is improved, but water splashing causes environmental pollution
Solution Approach 1:
The patent converts the harmful water splashing effect into a beneficial drainage mechanism. By positioning drainage holes at specific locations on the loading member, stop member, and dehydration plate, the system allows water to be efficiently channeled out during rotation, transforming what would be splashing pollution into controlled drainage that improves dehydration efficiency while minimizing environmental contamination.
Applied Scientific Principles
This section explains which scientific principles are used to turn an abstract innovation direction into a practical engineering solution.
Function Achieved in This Case
Enhances automation, reduces drying time, and minimizes environmental pollution by effectively spinning out water during the spin-drying process while maintaining mattress stability and facilitating seamless transfer between processes.
Implementation Method 1
a dehydration rack, a stop member, and a first driving structure. The dehydration rack is rotatably arranged on the frame body... the second driving structure is arranged on the frame body and connected to the dehydration rack so as to drive the dehydration rack to self-rotate

AI summary
A mattress centrifugal dehydration device which includes a frame body, a dehydration assembly, and a second driving structure. The dehydration assembly has a dehydration rack, a stop member, and a first driving structure. The dehydration rack is rotatably arranged on the frame body, and a loading member of a mattress is arranged on the dehydration rack, and the loading member has a loading surface. The stop member is arranged above the loading member, the stop member has a stop surface, and an accommodating space of the mattress is formed between the stop surface and the loading surface; the first driving structure is arranged on the dehydration rack and acts on the stop member to drive it to be close to or away from the loading member so as to reduce or enlarge the accommodating space.
