Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method and an apparatus for rinsing textile goods in a wet treatment container, which has at least one zone in which washing liquor is applied to the textile goods, and at least one zone free of washing liquor, in which the textile goods dwell before it reacts again is exposed to washing-up liquid.
  • the applicant has also developed a rinsing process (EU - A - 80 100 896), which also uses a floating residence zone, but the washing liquor (fresh water) is applied to the textile material in an amount at most that it enters the residence zone can carry.
  • a rinsing process (EU - A - 80 100 896)
  • the washing liquor fresh water
  • Such a method is characterized by a substantial reduction in the washing liquors required volume and thus in particular reduces the effort for wastewater treatment.
  • the invention is based on the object, in a further development of the prior art described, to design a rinsing process of the type mentioned at the outset in such a way that an optimum is achieved in terms of the time required for the rinsing process and in terms of the amount of washing liquor required.
  • washing liquor is applied exclusively to an ascending run of the textile material and in an amount which exceeds the quantity of liquor which can be carried by the textile material during its upward movement.
  • washing liquor to the ascending strand of the textile material results in a substantial reduction in the amount of washing liquor required in comparison with the process according to GB-PS 237 422.
  • the container 1 contains, for example, four deflection and transport rollers 2 * to 5 in its upper part, which are arranged parallel and at a distance one behind the other in the usual manner and - as shown - at least from the textile material 6 to be treated partially embraced; At least some of these rollers 2 to 5 can be driven in a conventional manner by an external drive, so that the textile material 6 can be conveyed through the container 1 in the direction of the arrows 7.
  • the container 1 also has, in its lower half, a dwell zone 8 free of washing liquor for the textile material 6.
  • the dwell zone 8 is formed in that the container 1 approximately in its lower half in the form of a store for the textile material 6 is formed with bottom 1a curved downward.
  • the dwell zone 8 has a textile material inlet end 8a in the area below the last deflection and transport roller 5 and a textile material outlet end 8b which is located at a sufficient distance below the first transport roller 2, viewed in the textile material conveying direction (arrow 7).
  • a nozzle device 9 for spraying washing liquor onto the textile material 6 is arranged in the area between this textile material outlet end 8b of the dwell zone 8 and this first deflection and transport roller 2 there is a zone in which a nozzle device 9 for spraying washing liquor onto the textile material 6 is arranged.
  • the rinsing liquor on the ascending run 6a of the textile material is carried out by this nozzle device 9, and only in this. Section, applied.
  • the amount of washing liquor is so be Measure that it exceeds the amount of liquor that can be carried by the textile material 6 during its upward movement (arrow 7).
  • the nozzle device 9 contains on both sides of the textile material 6 or 6a spray nozzles 10, 10a, which can be adapted in accordance with the textile material to be treated, i.e. if strand-like textile material is treated, then in particular a ring nozzle which is wholly or at least largely encompassing the textile material is appropriate, while a correspondingly wide spray nozzle can be arranged on each textile material side when the textile material is spread out.
  • each of these spray nozzles is formed by a nozzle body which corresponds in length to the greatest possible width of the textile material and is arranged transversely to the textile material.
  • Each nozzle body can either have a single nozzle slot running across the entire working width (as is known per se) or a number of individual nozzle openings 11 - as in the case of FIG. 2 - from which the washing liquor with relatively great pressure on the corresponding side of the textile material 6 is sprayed on.
  • - how 3 illustrates - an air inflator is also provided in front of and / or behind the nozzle device 9.
  • an air inflating nozzle set 12, 13 is arranged on both sides of the textile material 2 both in front of and behind the nozzle device 9 (in each case viewed in the textile material conveying direction - arrow 7).
  • the task of these air inflation nozzle sets 12, 13 is primarily to keep the textile material 6 wide; however, the rinsing effect of the rinsing liquor can also be supported in this way.
  • a transport device 14 supporting the textile material 6 is also provided in the area of the dwell zone 8, which has a sufficient distance from the downwardly curved floor 1a and to the end 8b of the dwell zone 8, that is to say in the area below the nozzle device 9 enough.
  • the transport device mentioned is formed in the dwell zone 8 by a grate 14.
  • This grate 14 is preferably made impermeable to the washing liquor in the region of the outlet end 8b of the dwell zone 8 (impermeable grate section 14a).
  • the remaining grate section is liquid-permeable and can be designed, for example, in the form of a conventional sliding grate.
  • the grate 14 there is also the possibility of at least partially executing it in the form of a roller grate (as indicated by dashed lines in the lower section at 14b).
  • the textile material 6 can be rinsed with cold or heated liquor, water or fresh water being the primary rinsing liquor.
  • FIG. 4 A particularly favorable and energy-saving embodiment is illustrated in FIG. 4 in a simple schematic representation, the same wet treatment container 1 as in FIG. 1 with the associated nozzle device 9 being used for the sake of simplicity.
  • the wet treatment container 1 has at least one normally open washing liquor outlet 16 at its lower end (cf. also FIG. 1).
  • the dirty, but still appropriately warm, dirty water or the corresponding washing liquor flows out of this outlet via a line 17 and through an indirect heat exchanger 18.
  • Fresh rinsing liquor (preferably fresh water) is fed from a fresh water line 19 either directly or via an intermediate storage 20 and a pump 2J to the heat exchanger 18, in which it is indirectly heated by the dirty rinsing liquor from the container 1, which results in an extreme results in favorable heat recovery.
  • the heat exchanger 18 can be followed by a second heat exchanger 22, in which the fresh washing liquor to be added to the nozzle device 9 can possibly be heated to the required final temperature.
  • a pressure measuring and setting device 24, a thermometer 25 and a metering valve 26 of conventional design can also be arranged in the liquor supply line 23 in the area between the second heat exchanger 22 and the nozzle device 9.
  • FIG. 5 shows, in a further simplified schematic representation (cross-sectional view), another embodiment of a wet treatment container 1 ', which is approximately rectangular in cross section, but in any case is designed with an approximately flat bottom 27.
  • a plurality of deflection and transport rollers 28, 29 can in turn be arranged in the upper part of this container 1 ', which guide the textile material 6' to be treated in the direction of arrow 7 'through the container 1' (at least through its upper one Part).
  • the dwell zone 8 'for the textile material 6' is essentially formed by a transport element 30 which supports the textile material and which extends essentially transversely across the bottom 27 of the container 1 'and is formed, for example, by an endlessly rotating sieve belt, so that it is permeable to the washing liquor.
  • This transport member 30 thus extends through the entire dwell zone 8 'to its end 8a' in the area below the nozzle device 9 ' in the same way as was described above with reference to FIG. 1, and is arranged between this outlet end 8a 'and the first deflection and transport roller 28.
  • FIG. 1 A further simplified longitudinal section schematic representation of a wet treatment container 31 is shown in FIG.
  • This wet treatment container has a plurality of chambers 34a to 34e which are successively traversed by the textile material 32 in the direction of the arrows 33.
  • Each of these chambers 34a to 34e can be designed in the same way as has been explained previously with reference to FIGS. 1 to 5, so that a cross-sectional representation of one of these chambers is unnecessary and also the device parts (including the nozzle devices) present therein in FIG .6 need not be illustrated. In any case, it can clearly be seen from the drawing in FIG.
  • this wet treatment container 31 with its chambers 34a to 34e is particularly well suited for continuous rinsing treatment of the textile material 32, the textile material being fed into the container 31 into the first chamber 34a and is discharged from the container 31 from the last chamber 34e, and intensive rinsing treatment can take place in each of these chambers 34a to 34e.
  • the wet treatment container 41 can have approximately the cross-sectional shape of a circle - as shown - or else an oval.
  • this embodiment of the device, in particular the container 41 is designed for an alternating or successive dyeing and rinsing treatment.
  • a sliding grate 14 ' can be arranged in the lower container part 41a in a largely similar manner, as has been described in connection with FIG. 1, at a short distance above the container bottom.
  • a downwardly curved reservoir is thus formed, which forms a dwell zone 42 for the textile material 6 ′′ and in which this textile material is supported on the sliding grate 14 ′.
  • This dwell zone 42 extends between its ends pointing approximately in the container circumferential direction 42a and 42b over most of the lower container part 41a.
  • a suitable number of deflection and transport rollers for the textile material 6 ′′ can in turn be provided in the upper container part 41b.
  • two such deflection and transport rollers are provided, namely in the area above the dwell zone end 42b and at a sufficient distance above it slightly smaller in diameter deflection roller 43 and approximately in the middle, upper sector arranged transport roller 44, which has a larger diameter than the deflection roller 43.
  • an overflow or jet system known per se is provided in the area between the transport roller 44 and the lower container part 41a or the other end zone 42a, which contains a conveying channel 46 for the textile material 6 ".
  • the system 45 is a liquor feed, which is for simplicity only indicated by arrows 47th
  • the transporter roller 44 is also assigned a squeeze roller 48 which is rotatably mounted in a holder 49, the holder 49 being in turn pivotably arranged on an axis 50 in the direction of the double arrow 51.
  • the squeeze roller 48 can be pivoted and pressed against the transport roller 44 if necessary, which will be explained in more detail later; when not required, the squeeze roller 48 is pivoted away from the transport roller 44.
  • the device in this embodiment can be used both for a dyeing treatment and for a rinsing treatment, which usually takes place in succession for the same textile material 6 ".
  • the textile material Conveying direction of the deflection and transport rollers 43, 44 reversible in such a way that the textile material 6 "during of the dyeing operation in the direction of the dashed arrows 7a and during the flushing operation in the direction of the continuous arrows 7b.
  • the textile material 6 is led out in the direction of arrows 7a from the dwell zone 42 at its end 42b and thereby reaches the transport roller 44 via the deflecting roller 43 the squeeze roller 48 is moved away.
  • the textile material 6 is conveyed from the transport roller 44 into the conveying channel 46 of the Cverflow or jet system 45, the conveying of the textile material 6" in and through this conveying channel 46 by the supply of liquor ( Arrows 47) is also favorably supported, this system 45 forming a conveying connection from the transport roller 47 to the other end 42a of the dwell zone 42.
  • the textile material 6 is to be rinsed simultaneously in the container 41 after dyeing, then the liquor located in the lower container part 41a is first drained through the lower outlet 41a '; this outlet 41a' then remains open during the rinsing operation.
  • the drive or the textile material conveying direction of the transport roller 44 is then reversed in accordance with arrow 7b.
  • the textile material 6 is then pulled out of the dwelling zone 42 at the end 42a and with its ascending strand first through the conveying channel 46 desOverflow or jet systems 45 passed, this rising strand of the textile material 6 "then only rinse liquor in the area of this system 47 is supplied, at the upper end 46a of the conveying channel 46 according to the arrows 47.
  • the nozzle sets intended for inflating air can also be designed such that the textile material strand is opened in the region of the application of the washing liquor by the additional air inflation, as a result of which the penetration of the washing liquor into the textile material or into the textile material strand in is supported in an extremely advantageous manner.
  • the textile material was first dyed and then - in the same treatment container - rinsed.
  • the lower part of the container contained a dye bath in a known manner.
  • the textile goods were conveyed in circulation and first passed over the deflection and transport rollers and from there washed into the conveyor channel of the overflow or jet system; this washing in was carried out with a large amount of dye liquor in order to convey the textile goods at the same time.
  • the dye liquor was drained from the container and the direction of conveyance of the deflection and transport rollers was reversed, with the liquor outlet being open.
  • the conveying speed which was between about 80 and 140 m / min during dyeing, to about 20 to 50 m / min for the rinsing.
  • the ascending run of the textile goods was first conveyed through the conveying channel of the overflow or jet system during washing, where a quantity of washing liquor - at the upper end of the conveying channel - was fed to the textile goods, which was somewhat larger was when the textile could take with it on its upward movement.
  • the weight ratio between the textile material and the wash liquor to be applied was also in the range of about 1: 3 and 1: -10 (with a favorable middle range in the ratio 1: 5). The result was a particularly intensive mass transfer in the delivery channel with an exceptionally good flushing performance.
