Definitions
- a device for producing fibers or microfibers A device for producing fibers or microfibers
- the invention relates to a device for producing nanofibers or microfibers from solutions, emulsions, liquid suspensions or melts containing a spun substance.
- nanofibers occurs directly from the surface of spun solutions which can be in the form of a thin film.
- Two-layer systems are also used, wherein the lower layer is formed by a ferromagnetic suspension and the upper layer by a solution of spun polymer. After application of the magnetic field, sharp vertical cones of the ferromagnetic liquid are formed that serve as nuclei from which the nanofibers are produced.
- Other device is based on the aeration of a spun polymer solution in order to create a high concentration of bubbles on the surface of the solution / wherein a lowering of the surface tension takes place and the bubbles form seeds of nanofibers created by virtue of the electric field.
- Another device is based on a slowly rotating cylinder which is partially immersed in a solution of the spun polymer. During the rotation of the cylinder, a deposit of a specific amount of the solution on the roller takes place, resulting in a formation of a continuous film from which on the upper part by virtue of a strong electric field so-called Taylor cones serving as nuclei of nanofibers are formed.
- Electrostatic spinning methods are characterized by a low speed of the process; they are technically complicated and expensive.
- the electrostatic spinning is limited by the necessity of a high voltage electric field.
- the chamber is generally provided with a source of the flowing gas and a collection area.
- the chamber is provided with a number of side by side arranged hollow shafts on which rotating discs are mounted.
- At least one hollow shaft is provided with two superposed rotating discs .
- At least one rotating disc is composed of two successive parts, wherein between the upper part and the lower part the outlet gap is formed around the circumference thereof.
- the size of the outlet gap between the upper part and the lower part of rotating disc may be formed by a spacer element, in particular a spacer ring.
- At least one part of the rotating disc has a frustoconical shape.
- At least one rotating disc may be provided with a pressure element, such as pressure nut.
- At least one disc or discs disposed in a chamber which is made of heat resistant material may be provided with means for their heating.
- the inner space of the hollow shaft is connected with the output gap of each of the rotating discs by means of openings and at the other end with a rotary unit for supplying the polymer and further with the drive motor.
- the source of the flowing gas in the chamber is a compressor or a fan.
- the collecting area can be either a movable conveyor made of a breathable fabric or a rotating collector or a bag of a porous mesh.
- the collecting area may be electrically charged.
- the present invention in comparison with the current state of the art prevents drying films of polymer solutions on the surface of rotating discs. It reduces the amount of defects of produced nanofibers and microfibrous layers, especially drops. It facilitates the centrifugal spinning of melts, because there occurs no cooling of the melt on the surface of the rotating elements.
- Figure 1 shows an overall diagram of the entire device
- Figure 2 shows a spindle with a hollow shaft and a disc in the perspective illustration and partial longitudinal section
- Figure 3 shows a specific embodiment of the disc according to the invention without a spacer
- Figure 4 shows a specific embodiment of the disc according to the invention with a spacer.
