Description
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the field of spinning equipment, and particularly relates to a preparation device and method of superfine denier high-elastic polyester filaments.
Background
The cloth cover woven by the superfine denier high-elastic polyester yarn has the characteristics of light weight, strong toughness, soft and smooth hand feeling, bright color, ventilation and comfort and the like, and can meet the pursuit of people on the hand feeling of the fabric and the comfort level of clothes.
In the prior art, in order to keep the ultra-fine denier high-elastic polyester yarn to have higher fluffiness, the temperature of a deformation heating box needs to be increased in the production process, and the temperature of a shaping heating box needs to be reduced (or the shaping heating box is closed for heating). As shown in FIG. 3, in the prior art, the filament is in contact with the bottom of the heating box, and the temperature at the bottom of the heating box is directly transferred to the filament for heating, because the contact distance between the filament and the heating box is large, the friction force is large, and the oiling agent contained in the filament is adhered to the inside of the heating box through high-temperature volatilization scaling, so that heat transfer between the filament and the heating box is not smooth, and the filament is heated unevenly.
As shown in fig. 4, in a non-contact deformation heating box in the prior art, the temperature generated by the heating box is transferred to the air, and the air is further transferred to the filament, and the heating mode reduces the contact between the filament and the heating box, so that the breakage condition of the filament is improved. However, the heating efficiency of the hot box is low, the energy consumption is high, and the turbulent flow phenomenon is formed in the hot box by air due to the negative pressure generated by the smoke exhaust of the smoke exhaust fan, so that the filament is obviously disturbed; when the oil smoke fan is closed, a large amount of oil smoke in the hot box is accumulated to form fog drops to pollute the silk.
The deformation heating box in the prior art is reformed by a circular blowing cooling device in the prior art and comprises a heating fan and a circular blowing barrel shown in fig. 5, wherein the side wall of the circular blowing barrel is provided with a plurality of blowing holes, and hot air provided by the heating fan is blown to the inner cavity of the circular blowing barrel through the blowing holes so as to heat silk strips passing through the heating fan; the heating efficiency of the deformation heating box is high, the filament is heated uniformly, but the filament is disturbed more obviously in the heating process than the technology in fig. 4.
The problems in the production process are very unfavorable for the production of the superfine denier high-elastic yarn, and the prior art does not propose a solution, so that research on a deformation heating box capable of reducing disturbance of hot air to yarn while guaranteeing uniform yarn heating has very important significance.

Comparative example 1
A method for producing polyester filaments, which is basically the same as in example 1, and is different only in that: the deforming heating tank of example 1 was replaced with a contact deforming heating tank (temperature: 165 ℃) in fig. 3.

Example 6
The production method of the ultra-fine denier high-elastic polyester filament yarn is basically the same as that in example 5, and the difference is that: the heating chamber and the steady air chamber of the deformation heating box are both cylindrical structures (the heights of the heating chamber and the steady air chamber are unchanged, and the inner diameter of the heating chamber is equal to that of the smoke exhaust chamber).

Comparing comparative example 3 with example 6, it is clear that the elongation at break and the breaking strength of comparative example 3 are both reduced, and that there are many filaments, mainly because: in comparative example 3, the radial blowing of the yarn during heating caused the yarn to have a large wobble, the breaking elongation and breaking strength of the yarn were reduced, the filaments were broken, and the filaments and broken ends were numerous.
