Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a beaker type dyeing machine. It finds particular application in conjunction with controlled dyeing of fabrics and other materials in a laboratory setting and will be described with particular reference thereto. It will be appreciated, however, that the invention is also amenable to other like applications.
  • conventional laboratory-scale dyeing machines do not replicate the flow of the solution through the sample. More specifically, as discussed above, the flow of the solution in conventional laboratory-scale dyeing machines is from the outside-in. Because commercial dyeing systems typically dye a sample starting from the inside of the sample spool and moving toward the outer edge (i.e., inside-out), the conventional laboratory-scale dyeing machines do not provide an accurate representation of how a sample is dyed in commercial dyeing systems.
  • the present invention provides a new and improved apparatus and method which addresses the above-referenced problems.
  • a dyeing machine in one embodiment, includes a beaker and a carrier within the beaker.
  • the carrier includes a perforation and supports a sample.
  • a pump assembly circulates a processing solution to a first side of the carrier. The processing solution passes through the perforation for dyeing the sample.
  • the carrier defines an interior volume.
  • the first side is an interior side of the carrier and the second side is an exterior side of the carrier.
  • the sample is supported on the exterior side of the carrier.
  • the carrier is substantially a cylinder.
  • a flow guide element has an input flow port, which receives the processing solution from the storage device, and an output flow port, which transmits the processing solution to the first side of the carrier.
  • centrifugal forces cause the processing solution transmitted from the output flow port to coat the first side of the carrier.
  • a portion of the carrier is submerged in the processing solution within the storage device.
  • a displacement body is within a volume of space defined by the carrier.
  • the pump circulates the processing solution within a gap between the first side of the carrier and the displacement body.
  • a storage device houses the processing solution.
  • a dyeing machine in another embodiment, includes a dyeing beaker and a support assembly mounting the beaker.
  • a carrier within the beaker, includes an aperture and supports a sample.
  • a means for circulating circulates a processing fluid to a first side of the carrier. The processing fluid passes through the aperture for dyeing the sample.
  • a method for dyeing a sample includes securing a sample to a sample side of a carrier including a perforation.
  • the carrier is secured within a beaker.
  • a processing solution is circulated to a processing side of the carrier. The processing solution passes through the perforation for dyeing the sample.

  • FIG. 4 illustrates a cross-sectional view of the flow guide element of FIG. 3 taken along the lines A-A in accordance with one embodiment of the present invention.
  • FIG. 5 illustrates a cross-sectional view of the flow guide element of FIG. 4 taken along the lines B-B in accordance with one embodiment of the present invention.
  • FIG. 1 Illustrated in FIG. 1 is a cross-sectional view of a beaker dyeing machine 10 in accordance with one embodiment of the present invention.
  • the machine 10 includes a beaker 12 .
  • a permanent magnetic flange 14 is positioned near a bottom of the beaker 12 .
  • the beaker 12 is positioned such that the magnetic flange 14 is in an operative engagement with a magnetic drive 16 .
  • the magnetic drive 16 is external to the beaker 12 .
  • other embodiments, in which the magnetic drive 16 is included in the beaker 12 are also contemplated.
  • a fluid pump 20 , impeller 22 , and drive shaft 24 are secured to the magnetic flange 14 .
  • the flange 14 , shaft 24 , and impeller 22 are recessed within a flow guide element 26 , which rests on the bottom of the beaker 12 .
  • the magnet 16 drives the magnetic flange 14 which, in turn, drives the fluid pump 20 , impeller 22 , and drive shaft 24 .
  • the pump 20 , magnet flange 14 , drive shaft 24 , impeller 22 , and flow guide element 26 are referred to as a pump assembly.
  • the pump assembly is used as a means for agitating and circulating a processing fluid 30 through the dyeing machine 10 .
  • a displacement body 32 is positioned above the flow guide element 26 and substantially along a central axis 34 relative to the pump assembly.
  • a material (sample) carrier 36 is positioned around the displacement body 32 and also shares the central axis 34 .
  • the carrier 36 defines an interior volume 40 in which the displacement body 32 is positioned.
  • the carrier 36 and displacement body 32 are substantially cylindrically shaped and are coaxial relative to each other.
  • other embodiments, in which the carrier 36 and displacement body 32 are shaped as other objects and/or not coaxially positioned relative to each other, are also contemplated.
  • the sample is a fabric to be dyed.
  • the sample includes other materials (e.g., polymers, etc.), are also contemplated.
  • the carrier 36 includes apertures 42 that perforate from a first side (a processing side) 44 (see FIG. 1), which is along an inner surface of the carrier 36 , to a second side 46 (a sample side), which is along an outer surface of the carrier 36 .
  • a sample 50 is secured to the sample side of the carrier 36 .
  • a pressure ring 52 fits inside the inner surface 44 of the carrier 36 to maintain the shape of the carrier 36 .
  • An inner annular gap 54 having a predetermined width, is define between the inner surface 44 of the perforated carrier 36 and the displacement body 32 .
  • the gap 54 ranges from about 2 mm to about 4 mm.
  • other embodiments, in which the gap 54 has other predetermined widths, are also contemplated.
  • a portion of the carrier 36 and sample 50 are submerged in the processing fluid 30 .
  • the processing fluid is stored remote from the beaker are also contemplated. In these alternate embodiments, neither the carrier nor the sample is submerged in the processing fluid.
  • FIG. 3 illustrates a top view of the flow guide element 26 including input and output flow guide ports 60 , 62 , respectively.
  • FIG. 4 illustrates a cross-sectional view of the flow guide element 26 of FIG. 3 taken along the lines A-A. As discussed below, the input and output flow guide ports 60 , 62 , respectively, are angled to facilitate the circulation of the processing fluid through the pump 20 .
  • FIG. 5 illustrates a cross-sectional view of the flow guide element 26 of FIG. 4 taken along the lines B-B.
  • the impeller 22 includes cross blades 64 .
  • the cross blades 64 agitate the processing fluid 30 when the impeller 22 rotates.
  • the magnetic flange 14 and blades 64 of the impeller 22 begin to rotate for agitating the processing fluid 30 . Furthermore, the rotation of the flange 14 and blades 64 create a flow of the processing fluid 30 in the direction of the arrows through the input and output flow guide ports 60 , 62 , respectively. More specifically, the processing fluid 30 is drawn into the input flow guide port 60 by a suction created by the rotation of the flange 14 and the impeller 22 . Furthermore, the fluid is pumped into the volume 40 below the displacement body 32 via the output flow guide port 62 . It is to be understood that, according to commonly accepted practice, the processing fluid 30 is heated to a predetermined temperature by a temperature controller (e.g., heating element) (not shown).
  • a temperature controller e.g., heating element
  • the angles of the input and output flow guide ports 60 , 62 are set for optimizing the circulation of the processing fluid 30 .
  • the angle of the input flow guide port 60 is set to optimize the flow of the fluid 30 into the flow guide element 26 .
  • the angle of the output flow guide port 62 is set to optimize the flow of the fluid 30 from the flow guide element 26 to the gap 54 . More specifically, the angle of the output flow guide port 62 is set to aim the fluid 30 exiting the port 62 into the gap 54 .
  • the drive shaft 24 rotates the carrier 36 and displacement body 32 (e.g., at about 1200 rpm) to create a centrifugal force, which acts upon the fluid entering the gap.
  • the centrifugal force causes the fluid entering the gap to come into contact with the inner surface 44 of the carrier 36 .
  • the processing fluid 30 coats (sprays) the inner surface 44 of the carrier 36 .
  • the processing fluid After the processing fluid begins to coat the inner surface of the carrier 36 , the fluid 30 seeps through the apertures (perforations) 42 until contacting the sample material 50 .
