Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION

The present invention relates to the technical field of production of elastic fibers, in particular to an elastic fiber dry spinning component and spinning part.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

Spandex is a kind of widely used elastic fiber. The main function of a spinning component in a dry spinning production process of elastic fibers such as spandex and the like is to maintain the constant temperature of a polymer solution in a channel and spray filaments. The structure of the existing spinning component is as shown in FIG. 33, the spinning component includes a box body la longitudinally provided with multiple polymer solution channels 2a separated from each other, areas in the box body other than the channels are cavities 3a, and the cavities 3a are used for circulation of a fluid medium that exchanges heat with the polymer solution in the channels, and spinnerets 4a are arranged in the channels. Chemical raw materials needed for the production of the elastic fibers form the polymer solution after polymerization, the polymer solution forms various strands of polymer solution flow after being metered and allocated by a metering device, and the various strands of polymer solution flow correspondingly flow into the channels of a temperature control box and are sprayed by the spinnerets in the channels to form tows.

In a dry spinning process of the elastic fibers, such as spandex and the like, the spinnerets are prone to blockage, gumming and other phenomena, so the spinnerets need to be changed or cleaned frequently or periodically. As the spinnerets of the traditional spinning component as shown in FIG. 33 are installed in the polymer solution channels, when the spinnerets need to be changed or cleaned, the entire spinning component usually needs to be detached from the spinning part during the maintenance, or the spinnerets are respectively taken out from the polymer solution channels in general and the like, thereby wasting time and labor, being low in efficiency, and possibly interrupting the continuous production of the fibers in general.

Apparently, the embodiments described are merely a part, but not all, of the embodiments of the present invention. Elements and features described in one accompanying drawing or one implementation of the present invention can be combined with the elements and features shown in one or more other accompanying drawings or implementations. It should be noted that for the objective of clarity, the expression and description of parts and treatment known to those of ordinary skill in the art, which are not relevant to the present invention, are omitted in the accompanying drawings and the description. All of other embodiments, obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without any creative effort, fall into the protection scope of the present invention.

As shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 2, the embodiment of the present invention provides an elastic fiber dry spinning component, including:

a temperature control box 3, wherein the temperature control box 3 includes a box body 31, and the box body 31 is longitudinally provided with multiple polymer solution channels 32 separated from each other; areas in the box body 31 other than the polymer solution channels 32 are cavities, and the cavities are used for circulation of a fluid medium that exchanges heat with an elastic fiber dry spinning polymer solution in the polymer solution channels. The distribution mode of the multiple polymer solution channels 32 separated from each other can be designed according to actual needs, for example, the multiple polymer solution channels 32 can be distributed in one or more rows, etc.

A spinneret part 4 detachably connected to the temperature control box 3, wherein the spinneret part 4 includes multiple spinneret orifice sets 41 separated from each other, and the multiple spinneret orifice sets 41 are correspondingly in communication with outlets of the multiple polymer solution channels 32. The detachable connection mode between the spinneret part 4 and the temperature control box 3 is not limited, for example, it can be, but not limited to, bolt connection, threaded connection, clamping or the like. The distribution mode of the multiple spinneret orifice sets 41 separated from each other can also be designed according to actual needs, for example, the multiple spinneret orifice sets 41 can be distributed in one or more rows corresponding to the multiple polymer solution channels 32, etc.

The spinning component provided by the embodiment of the present invention can be used in, but not limited to a dry spinning process of elastic fibers such as spandex fibers and the like, the temperature control box for performing temperature control on the elastic fiber dry spinning polymer solution and the spinneret part for performing filament spraying on the polymer solution after the temperature control treatment are arranged as two relatively independent parts by the spinning component and are integrated into a detachable entirety with a relatively fixed position in a detachable connection mode, thereby facilitating the installation and maintenance of the spinning component and the continuous production of fibers, for example, when the spinning component is changed or cleaned, the spinneret part can be separated from the temperature control box, and the current spinneret part is changed by another clean spinneret part, therefore the change is simple, convenient and quick, the influence on the continuous production of fibers is very small, and the separated spinneret part only needs to be cleaned, thereby reducing the cleaning workload and improving the efficiency.

Optionally, the overall structure of the spinneret part 4 can be determined in accordance with, but not limited to, the section shape of a channel used in the dry spinning of elastic fibers. For example, the entire spinneret part 4 can be provided with, but not limited to, a rectangular structure in which the multiple spinneret orifice sets 41 are linearly arranged, and a spinneret plate having the rectangular structure facilitates the adaption of a rectangular channel used in elastic fiber dry spinning.

Optionally, one spinneret orifice set 41 includes: a spinneret orifice 411 and a spinneret sub-part arranged in the spinneret orifice 411, and the spinneret sub-part includes at least one spinneret 412; and the spinneret sub-parts contained in the at least one spinneret orifice set among the multiple spinneret orifice sets are detachably connected with the corresponding spinneret orifices. The solution improves the convenience of cleaning, changing and other maintenance and installation of the spinneret. The solution in which one spinneret sub-part includes multiple spinnerets 412 can increase the number of tows and improve the yield. In addition, the detachable connection mode of the spinneret sub-parts contained in the at least one spinneret orifice set among the multiple spinneret orifice sets and the corresponding spinneret orifices is not limited, for example, interference press-in connection or threaded connection and other modes can be adopted, but not limited thereto, on the spinneret sub-parts and the corresponding spinneret orifices so as to facilitate the installation and maintenance, for example, one spinneret sub-part including multiple spinnerets 412 is used as an entirety and is pressed in the corresponding spinneret orifice in an interference manner, the installation method in the solution is simple, and the positioning of the spinnerets is facilitated. The multiple spinnerets 412 contained in the entirety of the spinneret part 4 are linearly distributed on one or more parallel straight lines at intervals to adapt to the rectangular channel used in the elastic fiber dry spinning to perform filament spraying process treatment.

Optionally, a thermal protection plate 8 is arranged on the surface of the spinneret part 4 away from the temperature control box 3 for reducing the thermal transfer from a spinning box (the spinning box includes, but not limited to, the channel or the like) to the spinneret part 4 in a use process. In a dry spinning process of elastic fibers, such as spandex fibers and the like, the spinning component provided by the embodiment of the present invention is connected with the spinning box, for example, the spinning component can be installed above the spinning box or in other places, the spinneret part is located between the temperature control box and the spinning box, a polymer solution capillary beam sprayed by the spinneret part 4 is in contact with temperature control gas flow in the spinning box, the solvent in the sprayed substance is removed by thermal transfer to form elastic fiber tows, and the temperature control gas flow includes, but not limited to, temperature control air, temperature control nitrogen, temperature control inert gas or the like. As the temperature of the temperature control gas flow is usually high, the temperature control gas flow in the spinning box will be transferred to the spinneret part 4 to cause temperature difference of different positions of the spinneret part 4, thereby affecting the product quality, therefore the thermal protection plate 8 is arranged on the surface of the spinneret part 4 away from the temperature control box in the solution, and due to the thermal isolation of the thermal protection plate 8, the thermal transfer from the temperature control gas flow in the spinning box to the spinneret part can be reduced, thereby being conducive to guaranteeing the product quality. The material of the thermal protection plate needs to be determined according to actual needs, can be made of, but not limited to, materials being difficult to conduct heat, such as resin and the like; the specific structure of the thermal protection plate can be flexibly designed on the premise of ensuring normal fiber production; and this is not limited in the embodiment of the present invention.

Optionally, a filtering component 7 is arranged at the inlet of at least one spinneret orifice set 41. As the filtering component 7 is arranged at the inlet of the spinneret orifice set 41, the solution flowing out from the polymer solution channels can enter the spinneret orifice set 41 after the secondary filtering of the filtering component 7, thereby prolonging the maintenance period for changing or cleaning of the spinneret orifice set, and the filtering component is lower in cost and is convenient to change, therefore the solution indirectly improves the production efficiency by prolonging the maintenance period of the spinneret orifice set. The material of the filtering screen can be determined according to actual needs, and can be made of, but not limited to, such materials as metal or the like; the shape, the dimension and other specific structures of the filtering screen can be flexibly designed on the premise of ensuring normal fiber production; and this is not limited in the embodiment of the present invention. Optionally, the filtering component includes multiple layers of filtering screens that are integrated together, and the meshes of at least two layers of filtering screens are different. In the solution, the multiple layers of filtering screens with different meshes are integrated together for filtering, which is helpful to improve the effect of graded filtering. Further optionally, the multiple layers of filtering screens that are integrated together are further provided with a sealing covered edge. The material of the sealing covered edge can be determined according to actual needs, for example, the portions sealing the edges of the multiple layers of filtering screens can be made of, but not limited to, aluminum, corrosion resistant rubber and other soft materials. On the basis of achieving the above-mentioned technical effects, the solution can achieve the effect of sealing the inlets of the spinneret orifice sets, and thus the probability of introducing impurities is reduced.

Optionally, the spinning component is further configured with a first rotating device used for rotating the spinning component to change the orientation of the surface of the spinneret part away from the temperature control box. For example, the spinning component can be integrally or partially rotated by the first rotating device to change the orientation of the surface of the spinneret part away from the temperature control box, so that the surface of the spinneret part away from the temperature control box after rotation is in a state where at least one component of the spinneret part is convenient for such operations as detachment, installation, cleaning, maintenance or the like, and the state can include, but not limited to, a state of integrally or partially rotating the spinning component for a certain angle (e.g., 180 degrees) and locating the same upward. The solution improves the convenience of operations such as detachment, installation, cleaning, maintenance or the like.

The main function of the temperature control box in the dry spinning production process of such elastic fibers as spandex and the like is to keep a constant temperature of the polymer solution in the channel. For such elastic fibers as spandex and the like, the temperature has a great impact on the viscosity of the polymer solution for the dry spinning of elastic fibers, if the temperature of the polymer solution flowing into the spinneret orifice is not uniform and constant, it will directly affect the viscosity of the polymer solution passing through the channel, which in turn affects the rheological property of the polymer solution entering the spinneret, which may cause the instability of tows sprayed by the spinneret, for example, the thicknesses of the tows are uneven, the tows are intermittent and so on. In particular, with the continuous improvement of the elastic fiber dry spinning speed, the temperature control capability of the temperature control box is more important in the case where the flow rate of the polymer solution in the temperature control box is continuously increasing.

In a process of practicing the embodiment of the present invention, the inventors of the present invention have found that during the dry spinning production of elastic fibers such as spandex and the like based on the existing temperature control box, as shown in FIG. 32, the polymer solution flowing into the polymer solution channel 2a performs non-contact heat exchange with the fluid medium in a cavity 3a through a wall surface of the polymer solution channel 2a, since the polymer solution flowing into the polymer solution channel 2a is a solid flow beam having a certain size, the degrees of heat exchange between different portions of the polymer solution and the fluid medium may vary, particularly when the polymer solution is a solid flow beam having a larger size and/or when the flow rate of the polymer solution is faster and the like, the portion of the polymer solution flow beam radially closer to the wall surface of the polymer solution channel 2a achieves more sufficient heat exchange with the fluid medium in the cavity 3a, and the portion farther away from the wall surface of the polymer solution channel 2a (e.g., the central portion of the polymer solution flow beam) achieves more insufficient heat exchange with the fluid medium in the cavity 3a, resulting in certain temperature distribution in different portions in the radial direction of the polymer solution from the center to the edge, for example, the temperature of the central portion is lower than that of the edge portion and the like, that is to say, different portions in the radial direction of the polymer solution in the polymer solution channel 2a have temperature difference, and thus the temperature of the polymer solution flowing into the spinneret orifice 4a is not uniform and constant. Since the temperature has a great impact on the viscosity of the polymer solution for dry spinning of elastic fibers such as spandex and the like, if the temperature of the polymer solution flowing into the spinneret orifice 4a is not uniform and constant, it will directly affect the viscosity of the polymer solution passing through the channel, which in turn affects the rheological property of the polymer solution entering the spinneret, which may cause the instability of tows sprayed by the spinneret, for example, the thicknesses of the tows are uneven, and the tows are intermittent and so on, the quality of the fibers is affected, and the continuous operation of dry spinning may be affected in a serious case.

To this end, the present invention provides a novel temperature control box for elastic fiber dry spinning. FIG. 3 is a schematic diagram of a three-dimensional structure of a temperature control box for elastic fiber dry spinning provided by an embodiment of the present invention; FIG. 4 is a schematic diagram of a sectional structure of a temperature control box for elastic fiber dry spinning provided by an embodiment of the present invention; and FIG. 5 is a schematic diagram of a section in an A-A direction in FIG. 4. As shown in FIG. 3 to FIG. 5, the temperature control box for elastic fiber dry spinning provided by the embodiment of the present invention includes:

a box body 31, wherein the box body 31 is longitudinally provided with multiple polymer solution channels 32 separated from each other;

areas in the box body 31 other than the polymer solution channels 32 are cavities 33, and the cavities 33 are used for circulation of a fluid medium 34 that exchanges heat with an elastic fiber dry spinning polymer solution in the polymer solution channels 32; and an intermediate part 35 is arranged in one of the polymer solution channels 32, and the intermediate part 35 is used for reducing the temperature difference of different portions of the polymer solution flowing out from the polymer solution channel 32.

The temperature control box provided by the embodiment of the present invention can be used in a dry spinning production process of elastic fibers such as spandex and the like. As the temperature has a great impact on the viscosity of the polymer solution for preparing spandex, after the temperature control box provided by the embodiment of the present invention is used in the dry spinning production process of spandex, the obtained beneficial effects are more apparent.

In an actual production process, chemical raw materials needed for the production of the elastic fibers form the polymer solution after polymerization, the polymer solution forms various strands of polymer solution flow after being metered and allocated by a metering device, and the various strands of polymer solution flow correspondingly flow into the polymer solution channels 32 of the temperature control box, and the intermediate parts arranged in the polymer solution channels act on the polymer solution flowing into the polymer solution channels, so the temperature difference of different portions of the polymer solution flowing out from the polymer solution channels 32 can be reduced, and accordingly the polymer solution flowing out from the polymer solution channels 32 has a constant temperature and the viscosity is uniform. The polymer solution having the constant temperature and the uniform viscosity is subjected to filament spraying treatment by the spinneret in a subsequent procedure of dry spinning production, which is conducive to guaranteeing the rheological property of the polymer solution entering the spinneret, so the tows sprayed by the spinneret are stable, and accordingly the quality of the prepared fiber products is improved.

It should be noted that the specific structure of the intermediate part 35 is not limited in the present invention, and the specific structure capable of achieving the function of the intermediate part 35 can be designed according to actual needs.

Optionally, the intermediate part 35 includes a static mixer 350 used for dispersing and mixing the polymer solution entering the polymer solution channel so as to reduce the temperature difference of different portions of the polymer solution in the radial direction. The specific structure of the static mixer can be designed according to actual needs, and this is not limited in the present invention. For example, the static mixer 350 can adopt a structure similar to a fried dough twist as shown in FIG. 6a, the polymer solution alternately flows clockwise and counterclockwise in the polymer solution channel due to the structure so as to increase the heat exchange frequency of the polymer solution and the pore wall 320 of the polymer solution channel and improve the heat exchange efficiency of different portions of the polymer solution, in order to reduce the temperature difference of different portions of the polymer solution flowing out from the polymer solution channel as much as possible. As another example, the static mixer 350 can adopt a structure similar to a cross as shown in FIG. 6b, different portions of the polymer solution are mixed in the polymer solution channel after being shunted for multiple times due to the structure, thereby increasing the heat exchange between the different portions of the polymer solution while increasing the heat exchange frequency of the polymer solution and the pore wall 320 of the polymer solution channel, and thus the temperature difference of different portions of the polymer solution flowing out from the polymer solution channel is reduced as much as possible.

Or, optionally, the intermediate part 35 includes: a shunting part 351 used for converting the section shape of the polymer solution entering the polymer solution channel from a solid shape into a hollow annular shape. The solid shape refers to that the polymer solution in the polymer solution channel forms a flow beam on the whole, and there is no space distribution similar to a cavity in the flow beam. The hollow annular shape refers to that the polymer solution in the polymer solution channel forms a flow beam distributed in a certain annular shape, and the central part of the flow beam has space distribution similar to the cavity. As the polymer solution in the polymer solution channel 32 exchanges heat with the fluid medium 34 in the cavity 33 through the wall surface of the polymer solution channel 32, the section shape of the polymer solution entering the polymer solution channel is converted from the solid shape into the hollow annular shape by the shunting part in the solution, so that the polymer solution is radially distributed to be close to the polymer solution channel 32 as much as possible to increase the contact area of heat exchange, in this way, different portions in the radial direction of the polymer solution achieve sufficient and uniform heat exchange with the fluid medium in the cavity 33 through the wall surface of the polymer solution channel 32, thereby reducing the temperature difference of the different portions in the radial direction of the polymer solution. Optionally, the solid shape is a circle, and the hollow annular shape is a circular ring shape. The solution can be better matched with the circular polymer solution channel, and the efficiency and uniformity of heat exchange can be better improved.

The specific structure of the shunting part is designed very flexibly, and this is not limited in the present invention. For example, the shunting part 351 includes: a liquid inlet sub-part 3511, a liquid outlet sub-part 3512 and a flow guide sub-part 3513; the liquid inlet sub-part 3511 and the flow guide sub-part 3513 are longitudinally arranged in sequence; and the liquid outlet sub-part 3512 is in communication with the liquid inlet sub-part 3511 for exporting the polymer solution entering the liquid inlet sub-part 3511 to an outer wall of the liquid outlet sub-part 3513, and the polymer solution flows downward along the outer wall. In the actual production process, the polymer solution metered and allocated by the metering device flows into the liquid inlet sub-part, the sectional area of the polymer solution flowing into the liquid inlet sub-part is a solid flow beam (such as a polymer solution flow beam with a circular section and the like), then the polymer solution is led out by the liquid outlet sub-part and flows downward along the outer wall of the flow guide sub-part, there is no polymer solution in the flow guide sub-part, the section of the polymer solution flowing downward along the outer wall of the flow guide sub-part is a hollow flow beam (such as a polymer solution flow beam 39 with a circular ring-shaped section), in this way, the contact area of the polymer solution and the wall surface of the polymer solution channel 32 is increased, which ensures sufficient and uniform heat exchange between the different portions in the radial direction of the polymer solution with the fluid medium in the cavity 33 through the wall surface of the polymer solution channel 32, and thus the temperature difference of the different portions in the radial direction of the polymer solution is reduced.

In an optional implementation, as shown in FIG. 3 and FIG. 7a, the inside diameter of the liquid inlet sub-part 3511 is smaller than the outside diameter of the flow guide sub-part 3513, the liquid outlet sub-part 3512 is provided with an external expansion structure, and the outlet of the liquid outlet sub-part 3512 provided with the external expansion structure is distributed along the outer edge of the flow guide sub-part 3513. In the solution, the liquid outlet sub-part is designed to have the external expansion structure, the polymer solution in the liquid inlet sub-part 3511 with the smaller inside diameter flows downward (the flow direction of the polymer solution is as shown by an arrow in FIG. 7a) along the outer wall of the flow guide sub-part 3513 with the bigger outside diameter after being led out from the outlet of the liquid outlet sub-part 3512, and thus the section of the polymer solution is changed from the solid shape such as the circle and the like into the hollow annular shape such as the circular ring shape and the like.

The specific structure of the liquid inlet sub-part can be designed according to actual needs, and this is not limited in the present invention. For example, the liquid inlet sub-part 3511 includes a hollow cylindrical liquid inlet part 35111 and an inverted frustum-shaped allocation part 35112, which are longitudinally arranged in sequence; an upper surface of the inverted frustum-shaped allocation part 35112 is in communication with the hollow cylindrical liquid inlet part 35111, and a lower surface of the inverted frustum-shaped allocation part is in non-communication connection with the flow guide sub-part 3513; and the inlet of the liquid outlet sub-part 3512 provided with the external expansion structure is in communication with a side face of the inverted frustum-shaped allocation part 35112. The flow guide sub-part can be provided with a cylindrical structure, and the flow guide sub-part can be designed into a hollow or solid structure according to actual needs, and it is helpful to save the material when the flow guide sub-part is designed into the hollow structure. In the solution, the structure of the liquid inlet sub-part is compact, the smaller beam of polymer solution entering the polymer solution channel can be effectively dispersed from a solid circle flow beam into circular ring-shaped flow beams with the flow guide sub-part as the center in the solution, thereby increasing the contact area of the polymer solution that flows on the outer wall of the flow guide sub-part and the wall surface of the polymer solution channel, and accordingly the efficiency and uniformity of the heat exchange with the heat exchange medium in the cavity through the wall surface are improved. The structural cost of the intermediate part provided by the solution is lower.

In another optional implementation, as shown in FIG. 7b, the inside diameter of the liquid inlet sub-part 3511 is bigger than the outside diameter of the flow guide sub-part 3513, the liquid outlet sub-part 3512 is arranged on a bottom surface of the liquid inlet sub-part 3511 and is distributed along the outer edge of the flow guide sub-part 3513. In the solution, the polymer solution in the liquid inlet sub-part 3511 with the bigger inside diameter flows downward (the flow direction of the polymer solution is as shown by an arrow in FIG. 7b) along the outer wall of the flow guide sub-part 3513 with the smaller outside diameter after being led out from the outlet of the liquid outlet sub-part 3512, and thus the section of the polymer solution is changed from the solid shape into the hollow annular shape. Optionally, the liquid inlet sub-part is provided with a hollow cylindrical structure, and the flow guide sub-part is provided with a cylindrical structure, therefore the section of the polymer solution is changed from the circular solid shape into the hollow annular shape, such as the circular ring shape.

Further, the intermediate part can further include: a confluence part 352 connected below the shunting part 351 and used for converging the polymer solution flowing out from the shunting part 351 into a solid flow beam. Optionally, the confluence part is provided with a conical structure. For example, as shown by arrows in FIG. 7a and FIG. 7b, the polymer solution flowing downward from the outer wall of the flow guide sub-part converges into a solid flow beam again by means of the confluence part 352 having the conical structure as an example, thereby being convenient for the polymer solution flowing out from the polymer solution channel to accurately flow into the spinneret to be subjected to subsequent filament spraying treatment. The structural cost of the intermediate part provided by the solution is lower.

On the basis of any above-mentioned technical solution, optionally, a sealing ring 36 is arranged at the inlet of at least one polymer solution channel 32 among the multiple polymer solution channels, for example, a sealing ring 36 can be arranged at the inlet of each polymer solution channel 32 so as to prevent the polymer solution from flowing into the cavity.

Optionally, as shown in FIG. 8, a fluid medium inlet 371 and a fluid medium outlet 372 are further formed in the box body 31, and the fluid medium 34 flows into the cavity 33 from the fluid medium inlet 371 and flows out from the box body 31 from the fluid medium outlet 372. In the solution, as the inlet and the outlet of the fluid medium are formed in the box body, flow control is convenient to perform on the fluid medium in the cavity, the fluid medium flows to perform quick heat exchange with the polymer solution in the polymer solution channel, and the temperature of the fluid medium is controlled to guarantee the uniformity and the constant temperature of the polymer solution in the polymer solution channel.

The position designs of the fluid medium inlet 371 and the fluid medium outlet 372 can be determined according to actual needs. Optionally, the fluid medium inlet 371 is formed in a position close to one side face of the box body 31 on the upper surface of the box body 31, and the fluid medium outlet 372 is formed in a position close to the other side face of the box body 31 on the upper surface of the box body 31. The solution is beneficial for the sufficient flow of the fluid medium in different positions of the cavity of the box body to guarantee the constant temperature of the fluid medium in the cavity, and thus the heat preservation of the polymer solution in the polymer solution channel is achieved.

Optionally, the temperature control box further includes: a filtering part 38 arranged below the intermediate part 35 and used for filtering the polymer solution flowing out from the intermediate part 35. The filtering part 38 can include, but not limited to, a filtering screen. The solution in which the filtering part is arranged below the intermediate part is conducive to reducing the content of impurities of the polymer solution entering the spinneret, thereby being conducive to improving the product quality and prolonging the maintenance period for changing or cleaning of the spinneret.

On the basis of any above-mentioned technical solution, optionally, the elastic fiber dry spinning component provided by the embodiment of the present invention can further include a metering device 1, as shown in FIG. 10 to FIG. 11f, the metering device 1 is detachably connected to the temperature control box 3 and is used for metering and allocating the elastic fiber dry spinning polymer solution to the multiple polymer solution channels. In the solution, the metering device 1, the temperature control box 3, the spinneret part 4 and other pats are organically integrated into a spinning component entirety from top to bottom, arbitrary two parts are detachably connected, the implementation mode is very flexible, and the structure is very compact, therefore the distance between adjacent tows of the formed elastic fibers can be greatly reduced on the premise of meeting the production requirements, accordingly more tows are sprayed within the limited space, the yield of the spinning component is improved, the energy consumption of products of each ton is reduced, and then the production cost of the products is lowered.

Optionally, a thermal baffle 6 is arranged between the metering device 1 and the temperature control box 3 for reducing the heat exchange of the temperature control box 3 to the metering device 1. The purpose of controlling the temperature of the polymer solution needs to be achieved by the circulation of the fluid medium that exchanges heat in the cavity of the temperature control box, and the fluid medium and/or the temperature of the fluid medium can be determined according to actual process conditions. In the spinning component provided by the embodiment of the present invention, the metering device and the temperature control box are detachably connected in sequence from top to bottom, in order to adapt to adverse effects of the fluid media of different types and/or different temperatures on the metering device. In the solution, the thermal baffle is arranged between the metering device and the temperature control box to realize thermal isolation of the two parts on the premise of guaranteeing the normal dry production of the elastic fibers, thereby reducing the heat that may be transferred by the temperature control box to the metering device, and thus it is conducive to guaranteeing the product quality. The material of the thermal baffle can be determined according to actual needs, and can be made of, but not limited to, materials being difficult to conduct heat, such as resin and the like; the specific structure of the thermal protection plate can be flexibly designed on the premise of ensuring normal fiber production of the fibers; and this is not limited in the embodiment of the present invention.

Optionally, the spinning part is further configured with a second rotating device for rotating the spinning part to change the orientation of the surface of the spinneret part away from the temperature control box. For example, the spinning part can be integrally or partially rotated by the second rotating device to change the orientation of the surface of the spinneret part away from the temperature control box, so that the surface of the spinneret part away from the temperature control box after rotation is in a state where at least one component of the spinneret part is convenient for such operations as detachment, installation, cleaning, maintenance or the like, and the state can include, but not limited to, a state of integrally or partially rotating the spinning component for a certain angle (e.g., 180 degrees) and locating the same upward. The solution improves the convenience of operations such as detachment, installation, cleaning, maintenance or the like.

At least multiple outlets of a metering unit in the metering device are nonlinearly arranged (for example, the metering device includes at least one first metering device 11, central trajectories of outlets 1112 of the multiple metering units of one metering unit 111 of one first metering device 11 are a circle 1113 as shown in FIG. 11a, the central trajectories of inlets 1121 of the multiple interface conversion parts of one interface conversion part 112 of the first metering device 11 are a circle 1123 as shown in FIG. 11b, and the central trajectories of outlets 1122 of the multiple interface conversion parts of one interface conversion part 112 of the first metering device 11 are a straight line 1124 as shown in FIG. 11c), and are linearly arranged with the inlets of at least multiple polymer solution channels of the temperature control box correspondingly and are correspondingly in communication with the same (for example, the central trajectories of inlets 321 of the multiple polymer solution channels of the temperature control box 3 are a straight line 323 as shown in FIG. 11d); and the outlets (for example, the central trajectories of the outlets 322 of the multiple polymer solution channels of the temperature control box 3 are a straight line 324 as shown in FIG. 11e) of the at least multiple polymer solution channels of the temperature control box are linearly arranged with at least multiple spinneret orifice sets of the spinneret part correspondingly and are correspondingly in communication with the same (for example, the central trajectories of the multiple spinneret orifice sets 41 of the spinneret part 4 are a straight line 413 as shown in FIG. 11f).

In the embodiment of the present invention, the “nonlinear arrangement” includes that multiple inlets or outlets are used as one set or are divided into multiple sets, the arrangement mode of each set of inlets or outlets is a nonlinear arrangement mode separately, for example, each set of inlets or outlets is distributed on a certain circumference or circular arc and so on; the “corresponding nonlinear arrangement” includes that the nonlinear arrangements of different sets of inlets or outlets are the same or similar, for example, different sets of inlets or outlets are dispersedly arranged on circumferences or circular arcs having the same radius and are in one-to-one corresponding communication, or different sets of inlets or outlets are dispersedly arranged on circumferences or circular arcs having different radiuses and are in one-to-one corresponding communication; the “linear arrangement” includes that multiple inlets or outlets are used as one set or are divided into multiple sets, the arrangement mode of each set of inlets or outlets is a linear arrangement mode, for example, each set of inlets or outlets is dispersedly arranged on a certain straight line or is dispersedly arranged on multiple parallel straight lines with certain intervals and so on; and the “corresponding linear arrangement” includes that the linear arrangement modes of different sets of inlets or outlets are the same or similar. The “circumference”, “circular arc” and “straight line” are used for representing approximate trajectory shapes of center connecting lines or contour lines of the multiple inlets or outlets.

The inventors have found in the practice of the embodiment of the present invention that the metering device in the traditional technology employs a metering pump head 34a as shown in FIG. 34, the metering pump head 34a is a standard product of a pump head manufacturer and generally includes one inlet and multiple outlets 34b, the (multiple) outlets 34b of the metering pump head are nonlinearly and dispersedly arranged on one or more circumferences, the (multiple) inlets 34e of the spinning component are linearly and dispersedly arranged on two straight lines with a certain interval, the nonlinear arrangement mode of the outlets 34b of the metering pump head and the linear arrangement mode of the inlets of the spinning component 34d are not corresponding, only a metal hose 34c is generally required for the connection of the two, and for the sake of brevity, only the situation that part of the outlets 34b of the metering pump head are connected to part of the inlets 34e of the spinning component via part of the metal hose 34c is shown in the figure. With the continuous development of spandex spinning technology, the number of spandex yarns produced at each spinning station is increasing, and the spandex is finer. When the traditional metering device is used, a lot of metal hoses are needed to connect the outlets of the metering device with the inlets of the spinning component, thereby increasing a lot of connectors, and thus the possibility of forming leakage points is increased; and in addition, the lengths, bending degrees and the like of different metal hoses are difficult to be guaranteed to be completely the same, which may lead to different pressures of the metered solution before flowing into the spinneret in the spinning component, so the rheological properties of the solution sprayed from the spinneret may be different, thinner solution flow may have greater difference particularly, resulting in inconsistent physical properties of spandex produced in the same spinning box. If the outlets of the metering device and the inlets of the spinning component can be directly and correspondingly connected without using the metal hose, possible defects resulting from the use of the metal hose in the prior art can be overcome.

In an optional implementation, the metering device 1 can include one or more first metering devices, and the temperature control box is detachably connected with the at least one first metering device. As shown in FIG. 12, one first metering device 11 can include: at least one metering unit 111 and at least one interface conversion part 112, wherein one metering unit 111 includes at least one inlet and multiple outlets, and the multiple outlets of one metering unit 111 are nonlinearly arranged; one interface conversion part 112 includes multiple inlets and multiple outlets which are correspondingly in communication via multiple flow guide conversion channels, at least part of the inlets of one interface conversion part 112 are nonlinearly arranged with at least part of the outlets of one metering unit correspondingly and are correspondingly in communication with the same, the multiple outlets of one interface conversion part 112 are linearly arranged, at least part of the outlets of one interface conversion part 112 are linearly arranged with at least part of the polymer solution channels of the temperature control box 3 correspondingly and are correspondingly in communication with the same, and the elastic fiber dry spinning polymer solution enters the corresponding polymer solution channels via at least the inlets of one metering unit 111 and the outlets of one interface conversion part 112.

In the dry spinning production of fibers such as spandex and the like, the polymer solution for the dry spinning of fibers such as spandex and the like flows in from the inlet of the metering unit to be accurately metered and allocated, and multiple strands of small solution flow metered by the metering unit are allocated to the inlets of the interface conversion parts and flow out from the outlets of the interface conversion parts after passing through the corresponding flow guide conversion channels. The solution flow flowing out from the outlets of the interface conversion parts flows into the spinning component in the subsequent procedure of the dry spinning of fibers such as spandex and the like so as to be subjected to filtering, heat preservation, filament spraying and/or the like, and the sprayed tows are subjected to solvent volatilization in a high-temperature cavity spinning box to form tows of the fibers such as spandex and the like.

The inlets, the flow guide conversion channels and the outlets of the interface conversion parts can be designed into different portions which are in communication with one another according to actual process needs, or can also be designed into different portions of a certain integral part, for example, the inlets and the outlets are respectively both ends of the flow guide conversion channels, and so on, and this is not limited in the embodiment of the present invention.

In the technical solution provided by the embodiment of the present invention, the interface conversion part is additionally arranged in the metering device, on one hand, the multiple nonlinearly arranged outlets of the metering unit are correspondingly in direct communication with the multiple nonlinearly arranged inlets of the interface conversion unit, and on the other hand, the multiple nonlinearly arranged inlets of the interface conversion unit are correspondingly in communication with the multiple linearly arranged outlets through multiple flow guide conversion channels, and thus the nonlinear arrangement mode of the outlets of the metering unit is converted into the linear arrangement mode at last. The metering device can be used in, but not limited to, the dry spinning production of fibers such as spandex and the like, in order to realize matched direct connection of the outlets of the metering device and the multiple linearly arranged inlets of the spinning component and other equipment in the subsequent procedures of the fiber spinning part and the like.

For example, in the dry spinning production of spandex, the metering device is used for accurately metering and allocating the polymer solution for preparing the spandex and respectively conveying the metered and allocated small solution flow to the spinning component to perform subsequent procedure treatment of spandex production. At present, the multiple inlets of the spinning component are mainly linearly arranged, the linear arrangement mode of the outlets of the interface conversion part in the metering device provided by the embodiment of the present invention can be correspondingly designed according to the linear arrangement mode of the multiple inlets of the spinning component, in this case, by adopting the metering device provided by the embodiment of the present invention, the nonlinear arrangement mode of the outlets of the existing metering unit can be converted into the linear arrangement mode so as to match with the linear arrangement mode of the multiple inlets of the spinning component (for example, the linear arrangement modes are the same and the positions are corresponding), therefore the direct corresponding connection of the outlet of the metering device and the inlet of the spinning component is achieved without using the metal hose, thereby saving the space occupied by the arrangement of the metal hose, more solution inlets and outlets can be deployed in the saved space, and the spinning component can spray more tows within the limited space, accordingly the efficiency is improved, and the production cost of the products is lowered.

In an optional implementation, in one metering unit 111 as shown in FIG. 13a, the inlet 1111 of the metering unit is located at the center of the circle, and the outlets 1112 (multiple outlets) of the metering unit are dispersedly arranged on the circumferences of multiple concentric circles 1113, and thus more outlets can be distributed on the metering unit 111 in the solution.
