Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a fabric dewatering device for removing water contained in a fabric after dyeing or washing process capable of achieving a sufficient dewatering even when the fabric is folded in the form of a rope or when thickens of the roped fabric widely varies. SOLUTION: This textile dewatering device comprises a pair of a stainless steel roll 1 and a sponge roll 2 having such a configuration that a rather thick sponge layer 5 is formed around the outside circumference of a roll core 3.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a draining device for removing water contained in a dyed or washed fabric.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art A vacuum dehydrator has conventionally been used as a drainer for removing water contained in a dyed or washed fabric. This vacuum dewatering machine must have a dewatering tub that houses the entire very long fabric,
As a result, the entire apparatus becomes large and expensive, and the dewatering process also takes a relatively long time. In addition, there is also a problem that, since water is absorbed through the filter, cloth dust accumulates in the filter and causes clogging.

[0003] The simplest structure of a drainer is to pass between both rolls to squeeze and remove the moisture contained in the fabric.
It is a method of removing. This roll-type drainer was used in the early electric washing machines, but used both rolls made of hard rubber or resin as a pair, and the fabric was compressed when passing through the gap between both rolls. The structure is such that water is squeezed out.

There is not much problem in squeezing the washed clothes by attaching such a roll to a washing machine or the like. However, in the case of squeezing a wide cloth that has been rolled into a thick and long rope. Since the thickness varies depending on the location, the degree of aperture varies. This gives the fabric a partial unreasonable force, and the weave of the fabric causes misalignment,
The water content cannot be sufficiently squeezed out.

[0005]

As described above, the conventional roll-type drainer has the above-mentioned problems. The problem to be solved by the present invention is this problem. Even in the case of a thick cloth rolled in a rope shape, or a cloth draining apparatus which can sufficiently drain water even if the thickness varies. I will provide a.

[0006]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The draining device of the present invention is directed to a roll-type draining device, and squeezes out moisture contained in a cloth by being passed between both rolls. However, the roll of the present invention does not use two hard rolls as in the related art, but uses one sponge roll while one is hard. Needless to say, this is a roll in which a sponge layer is provided on the outer periphery of a hard roll core, and is a relatively thick sponge layer.

[0007] Therefore, the present invention is a roll-type water draining device constituted by pairing a hard roll and a sponge roll which can be appropriately depressed. The sponge roll can be appropriately depressed and deformed to squeeze the cloth, regardless of the thickness of the rope-shaped cloth. That is, it is possible to squeeze the entire cloth uniformly and to sufficiently drain the cloth. Here, the cloth passing through the sponge roll is squeezed when meshing with the sponge roll to remove water, and when leaving the sponge roll, the compressed sponge is restored to absorb water from the cloth. Hereinafter, embodiments according to the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings.

[0008]

FIG. 1 is an embodiment showing a roll type drainer according to the present invention. In FIG. 1, reference numeral 1 denotes a stainless steel roll, and 2 denotes a sponge roll. Here, the stainless steel roll 1 is a form of a hard roll, and is not necessarily limited to a stainless steel roll. For example, a conventional hard rubber roll may be used.

On the other hand, the sponge roll 2 is a roll in which a sponge layer is formed on the outer periphery of a roll core 3, and this sponge layer has a certain thickness T, so that the depression amount due to compression becomes large. I have. The sponge is a porous rubber used as a cushioning material or a filler in various fields, and can be greatly deformed by an external force. Then, water can penetrate into the innumerable pores forming the porous material.

FIG. 1 shows a case where a cloth 4 sandwiched between a stainless steel roll 1 and a sponge roll 2 passes.
The cloth 4 is sent in the form of a rope,
Does not undergo compression deformation, but the sponge roll 2 is partially depressed and deformed, and sends out the rope-shaped cloth 4. FIG. 3A shows a case where the sponge roll 2 is deformed by being sandwiched between the two rolls 1 and 2. It can be transformed into a rope shape.

The sponge does not have a large increase rate of the compressive stress with respect to the amount of deformation, so that the sponge can be pressed almost uniformly regardless of the shape of the cloth 4 and, of course, the gap between the sponge and the cloth There is no leaving. Moisture contained in the fabric is squeezed out while the sponge layer 5 is deformed when meshing with both rolls 1 and 2. The squeezed water flows down along the sponge roll 2. In this case, the sponge layer 5
Is filled with water to some extent.
The water in the pores is also discharged by compressive deformation at the time of meshing.

When the two rolls 1 and 2 are separated from each other, the compressed sponge layer 5 is restored to its original shape. In this case, the innumerable small pores are enlarged and expanded. At the same time, it absorbs the moisture remaining on the surface of the fabric 4. The water in the pores that have been absorbed and filled up is reduced at the same time as the meshing of the fabric and is discharged again.
As described above, the drainer of the present invention is constituted by the hard roll and the sponge roll, and the following effects can be obtained.

[0013]

The drainer of the present invention is a roll-type drainer, wherein one of the rolls uses a hard roll and the other uses a sponge roll. Therefore, the sponge roll is a roll having a thick sponge layer, and when the cloth meshes with the roll, the sponge layer is compressed and deformed, and the water is discharged by uniformly compressing the rope-shaped rolled cloth. Can be done. Further, since the sponge has an infinite number of pores, when the fabric separates from the roll, the compressed pores expand, so that moisture attached to the fabric can be absorbed.
