Description

  The present invention relates to a heat-resistant conveyor belt in which both end portions along the longitudinal direction of an endless belt body are improved.

  As is well known, conveyor belts using a belt base material (belt body) made of a heat-resistant fiber woven fabric impregnated with fluororesin dispersion, dried and fired make the most of its heat resistance and non-adhesiveness. It is used in various heat treatment processes in various industrial fields such as food heat treatment, freezing, thawing treatment or heat treatment of electronic parts. However, when manufacturing a belt having a predetermined width, it is necessary to cut the belt main body to a predetermined width, and at that time, the fibers constituting the woven fabric as the belt base material are exposed at both ends. It becomes a state.

Therefore, when a conveyor belt is manufactured from the belt body as it is and running is performed, (1) the warp of the fibers constituting the heat-resistant fiber cloth is frayed or the filaments of the fibers are fluffed and cut. There are problems such as being discrete, and (2) the belt being easily torn from the end. Therefore, conventionally, a method of wrapping the both ends of the belt with a material equivalent to that of the belt body, that is, a material in which a heat-resistant fiber woven cloth is coated with a fluororesin, and heat-sealing to protect / reinforce is used. FIG. 6 shows an example thereof, FIG. 6 (A) shows a schematic plan view of the heat-resistant conveyor belt 1, and FIG. 6 (B) shows a sectional view taken along line XX of FIG. 6 (A). . Reference numeral 2 in the figure indicates an endless belt body. Here, the belt body 2 is obtained by impregnating a heat-resistant fiber woven fabric with a fluororesin dispersion, drying and firing. At both ends along the longitudinal direction of the belt main body 2, a fluororesin coating material 3 having a U-shaped cross section is provided by heat sealing. The following Patent Document 1 discloses a sheet-like belt in which a reinforcing material is coated with a uniform thickness by dipping on both front and back surfaces and end surfaces of both end portions in the width direction of an endless belt body. It is.
JP-A-8-85645

However, the conveyor belt described above has the following problems (1) to (3).
(1) The portion of the heat-sealed coating material 3 becomes harder than the belt body 2 and is bent when the belt is running to cause wrinkles in the width direction of the belt body 2. And tend to tear.
(2) The covering material 3 generally has a small amount of the fluororesin covered and has irregularities on the surface. Therefore, the surface of the coated covering material 3 is worn and the fibers are exposed and peeled off. In particular, when a belt is used for heat treatment of foods and the like, there is a problem that the fibers are mixed into the processed material.

  (3) The heat-resistant conveyor belt 1 generally needs to prevent meandering, and as an example of the method, it may be used in a state as shown in FIG. Reference numeral 5 in the drawing denotes a roll having guide grooves 6 formed on the peripheral surface. The conveyor belt 1 travels in a state in which a string 4 provided inside the belt 1 is fitted in a guide groove 6 of a roll 5. However, also in this case, the portion provided with the covering material 3 becomes hard, and the thread 7 on which the string 4 is sewn is cut by bending while the belt is running, and the string 4 tends to come off.

  The present invention has been made in consideration of such circumstances, and an object of the present invention is to provide a heat-resistant conveyor belt that can prevent the occurrence of folding wrinkles and prevent the fibers constituting the coating material from peeling off due to wear. And

  In addition, the present invention has a disadvantage that when the string is sewed with the heat resistant fiber thread as one of the meandering prevention means inside the belt main body where the covering material is located, the string is dropped due to the heat resistant fiber thread being cut. It is an object to provide a heat-resistant conveyor belt that can improve the temperature.

  The heat-resistant conveyor belt of the present invention has an endless belt body formed by impregnating a fluororesin dispersion into a heat-resistant fiber woven fabric, dried, and fired, and a U-shaped cross section that wraps both ends along the longitudinal direction of the belt body. A heat-resistant resin coating material.

  According to the heat resistant conveyor belt of the present invention, it is possible to prevent the occurrence of folding wrinkles and to prevent the fibers constituting the coating material from peeling off. In addition, according to the heat-resistant conveyor belt of the present invention, it is possible to improve the inconvenience that the meandering-preventive string falls off.

  Hereinafter, the heat-resistant conveyor belt of the present invention will be described in more detail.

  The inventors of the present invention conducted research on the conventional conveyor belt and found the following. That is, for the covering material at the end of the conveyor belt, a material reinforced with fibers is used from the viewpoint of emphasizing the strength of the covering material in order to improve the tear resistance of the belt end. As a result, the belt end portion (reinforcement portion) covered with the covering material becomes hard, and the phenomenon that wrinkles occur in the width direction of the conveyor belt has occurred. Further, in a conveyor belt configured to sew a meander-preventing string on the back side of the reinforcing portion with a heat-resistant fiber thread, the heat-resistant fiber thread may be broken or the fibers constituting the covering material may be worn out. This causes a problem that the belt is mixed into a processed product in which the belt is used.

  Therefore, the present inventors said that there is a material that does not contain fibers, is flexible, has good wear resistance, and has heat resistance equivalent to that of a belt body that is a fluororesin-coated heat-resistant fiber woven fabric. In order to solve the above problems based on the idea, intensive studies and tests were conducted.

  In the present invention, a commercially available fabric can be used as the heat resistant fiber woven fabric constituting the belt body. Specific examples of the heat resistant fiber constituting the heat resistant fiber woven fabric include glass fiber, aramid fiber, carbon fiber and alumina fiber. Here, glass fiber cloth is generally used because it is easy to handle and has many types. Examples of the fluororesin that is a covering material for the belt main body include ethylene tetrafluoride resin (PTFE resin), tetrafluoroethylene-hexafluoropropylene copolymer (PFEP), and tetrafluoroethylene-perfluoroalkyl vinyl ether copolymer. Although a coalesced resin (PFA resin) and a tetrafluoroethylene-ethylene copolymer (PETFE) can be mentioned, it is common to use a PTFE resin because of its wide variety.

  In the present invention, as the single fluororesin film as the covering material, for example, PTFE resin skived film, modified PTFE resin skived film, PTFE unfired tape, PFA melt extruded film, PFEP melt extruded film and PETFE melt extruded film Can be mentioned. The modified PTFE resin according to the present invention means a case where the modified comonomer is modified to 1% by mass or less (see Japanese Industrial Standard 6935-1), for example, trade name: M manufactured by Daikin Industries, Ltd. -111 and M-112 are mentioned, but not limited thereto.

  In the case of the PTFE resin skived film and the modified PTFE resin skived film, the film thickness used is preferably 0.025 to 0.3 mm, more preferably 0.05 to 0.20 mm. Here, when the thickness of the film is less than 0.025 mm, there is a problem in strength, and when it is thicker than 0.3 mm, it is difficult to wrap as a coating material, and the coating with the processed coating material is difficult. The part becomes hard.

  When the PTFE resin or modified PTFE resin skived film is wrapped in a belt body, a PFA or PFEP film having a thickness of 0.025 mm is used as an adhesive layer for heat fusion between the belt body and the covering material. It is preferable to use it. On the other hand, in the case of a PFA melt-extruded film, a PFEP melt-extruded film, and a PETFE melt-extruded film, the film thickness used is preferably 0.025 to 0.2 mm. Here, when the thickness is less than 0.025 mm, there is a problem in strength, and when the thickness exceeds 0.2 mm, the film becomes hard and it is difficult to wrap the belt body. Further, when the PTFE green tape is used, one having a thickness of 0.05 to 0.3 mm is preferably used.

  In the present invention, a polyimide film can be suitably used as the covering material. As the polyimide film, for example, a commercially available DuPont product name: Kapton, Ube Industries, Ltd. product name: Upilex and other double-sided fluororesin film-coated products, or double-sided fluororesin-coated products can be used. It is not limited. As the thickness of the polyimide film, 0.013 mm to 0.05 mm is preferably used. Here, when the thickness is less than 0.013 mm, there is a problem in strength, and when it exceeds 0.05 mm, it becomes hard and it is difficult to wrap the belt body.

  As already described with reference to FIG. 6, as described above with reference to FIG. 6, as a form of use of the heat-resistant conveyor belt, a string for preventing meandering is provided on the inner side of the covering material. It may be attached while being sewn with fiber thread. In this case, as the string, a braid or a braid manufactured by braiding a heat-resistant and high-strength fiber yarn is used. Moreover, as a string thread, an aramid fiber, which is a heat-resistant and high-strength fiber thread, is usually used because of its high strength.

  The covering material of the present invention is attached to the belt body as follows. That is, FIG. 7 shows a state where the clip 52 is fixed to the belt main body 22 every 50 cm through the covering material 51 before processing. The clip 52 is removed before pressing. FIG. 8 shows a processing method of the covering material 51, FIG. 8 (A) is a side view of a roll, a belt and the like, and FIG. 8 (B) is a plan view. As shown in FIG. 8, a cooling press board 53 and a hot press board 54 are arranged along the press traveling direction (arrow X direction) in an area where the belt body and the covering material overlap.

  That is, for example, when using a PTFE skived film as a coating material, first, a skived film having a predetermined width and a PFA film having the same width as an adhesive layer are cut, and then the film is sky-cut by a manual iron (340 ° C.). A PFA film is temporarily bonded to the bud film to produce a covering material 51, which is bent in half as shown in FIG. Next, the coating is folded by the hot press board 54 and the cooling press board 53 arranged adjacent to the end along the longitudinal direction of the belt body 22 while winding the belt body 22 between the two rolls 55 and 56. The material 51 is held at, for example, a temperature of 375 ° C. and a pressure of 0.49 MPa for 10 seconds, and bonded at a pitch of 50 mm, so that the covering material 51 is wrapped around the end of the belt body 22 along the longitudinal direction. In FIG. 8B, the hatched portion S is a fused portion, and the coating agent 51 that has passed through the hot press disk 54 is fused so as to wrap the end portion along the longitudinal direction of the belt main body 22.

  Next, for the purpose of comparing the wear resistance of various coating materials according to the present invention with a conventional coating material, in order to obtain a sample close to the state of the coating material that also serves as an actual reinforcement, the belt body and the coating material are The following various coating material samples 1 to 6 according to the present invention and comparative samples 1 and 2 according to conventional coating materials were manufactured.

A PTFE-coated aramid fiber woven fabric (trade name: FAF500-14, manufactured by Chuko Kasei Kogyo Co., Ltd.) made of a resin (fluororesin) layer 28 is used. The belt body 22 is obtained by impregnating an aramid fiber woven fabric with a PTFE resin dispersion, drying, and firing. Here, the belt body 22 has a width of 100 mm and a length of 1200 mm. As the covering material 23, a skived film (SK) having a thickness of 0.050 mm, a width of 40 mm, and a length of 1200 mm manufactured from PTFE resin (trade name: T-7AJ, manufactured by Mitsui DuPont Fluorochemical Co., Ltd.) is used.

Subsequently, the lace 24 was sewn with an aramid fiber thread 26 at a distance of 80 mm between the ends of the aramid fiber woven fabric 22 where both ends were wrapped and heat-sealed, and a heat-resistant conveyor belt 21 was produced.

  The heat-resistant conveyor belt according to Example 5 has a configuration in which both end portions along the longitudinal direction of the belt main body 22 are heat-sealed with the covering material 23 having a U-shaped cross section through the PFA film 25. Therefore, compared with the conventional conveyor belt of the structure heat-sealed with the same kind of coating material as the belt main body containing the fibers, the coating material 23 is more flexible, so that the coating portion is less likely to become hard. As a result, it is possible to prevent the occurrence of folding wrinkles that have conventionally occurred in the belt width direction due to the difference in hardness between the belt main body and the covering portion. In addition, since the coating material itself does not contain fibers, and because it has superior wear resistance compared to conventional coating materials, the surface of the coating material is worn and the fibers are exposed and peeled off as in the past.

That is, it is a sample having a configuration in which various coating materials are laminated on the top and bottom of the belt body (base material). Further, the test samples of the bending test example 5 and the comparative examples 3 and 4 are processed by wrapping both ends with a covering material corresponding to the wear resistance test sample 1 and the comparative samples 1 and 2, and for preventing meandering in the processed part. This is a test sample with a string attached.
