The present invention relates to a kind of seamless edge-sealing method of coating, in particular to a seamless edge-sealing method of fluorine resin coating.
The cooking tools used in the cooking industry in America and Europe mostly are metal flat-bottomed pans or metal non-stick pans with non-stick coating (fluorine resin coating). If natural gas or gas is used for heating the cooking food, it is very easy to cause the overheating of the pan bottom, so as to burn the fluorine resin coating and result in the food poisoning as well as affecting the health of the people; besides, the burned pan cannot be used any more, therefore it will waste the resource and influent on the environment. Furthermore, with the rapid development of the household appliances, e.g., microwave oven, toaster, electric oven, etc., it is more convenient for the people to cook food. In order to achieve more healthier, more time-saving, easier to clean, more beautiful and durable cooking appliances, a fabric of fluorine resin coating is born at the right moment, which can be used as a baking mat or an ovenware, and it is equipped with many excellent performances, according it can meet the hygienic standards of the food safety laws of Europe and America, e.g., FDA Certification of America and IFGB Certification of EU.
When the fabric of fluorine resin coating is made into a certain shape, the fabric of fluorine resin coating should be cut firstly, however the cut fabric of fluorine resin coating has a rough edge, and the cut fabric should be used after edge-sealing. The traditional edge-sealing process consists of the following steps:
Firstly, processing the raw material of fluorine resin into long strips of the fluorine resin film, and cutting the fabric of fluorine resin coating into the necessary shape;
Secondly, wrapping each long strip of the fluorine resin film around the fabric of fluorine resin coating with certain shape, and edge-sealing with the rough edge sealed and the long strip of the fluorine resin film connected end to end;
Finally, hot-pressing and obtaining an edge-sealed fabric of fluorine resin coating after.
The process has the following disadvantages: First, the end-to-end connection of each long strip of the fluorine resin film will cause a joint, and due to the force unbalance of the edge-sealing the long strip will disconnect, so, the requirements of manufacturing is very high and the appearance will be influenced; Second, crinkles certainly will be caused at the edge of the fabric of fluorine resin coating during the edge-sealing, more crinkles will occur in case of a circular fabric of fluorine resin coating, these crinkles not only cause the waste of the raw material of fluorine resin, but also disfigure the appearance of the product.
It is an object of the present invention to provide a seamless edge-sealing method of fluorine resin coating with even force balance for the edge-sealing.
For achieving above stated object, a first seamless edge-sealing method of fluorine resin coating, characterized in comprising following steps:
(I) Putting the raw material of fluorine resin into a mold to obtain a cylinder through one of the below ways:
First, pressure maintaining and demolding, finally sintering the mold formed casting;
Second, mechanical injecting;
Third, mechanical vulcanizing;
(II) Cutting the cylinder into rings and cutting each ring to form an annular slot on the inner wall of each ring;
(III) Cutting a piece of base fabric of fluorine resin coating into the shape adapted for the ring, and then stuffing the edge of the cut fabric of fluorine resin coating into the slot of the ring;
(IV) After hot-pressing, obtaining a piece of fabric of fluorine resin coating with seamless edge-sealing.
For achieving above stated object, a second seamless edge-sealing method of fluorine resin coating, characterized in comprising following steps:
(I) Putting the raw material of fluorine resin into a mold to obtain a cylinder through one of the below ways:
First, pressure maintaining and demolding, finally sintering the mold formed casting;
Second, mechanical injecting;
Third, mechanical vulcanizing;
(II) Cutting the cylinder into rings;
(III) Cutting a piece of base fabric of fluorine resin coating into the shape adapted for the ring, and then placing the cut fabric of fluorine resin coating between two rings stacked up;
(IV) After hot-pressing, obtaining a piece of fabric of fluorine resin coating with seamless edge-sealing.
As a preference, the raw material of fluorine resin is at least one of PTFE, PFA, FEP and ETFE with the molecular weight above 12.000.000 and the particle size of 15˜50 mu.
In order to keep the color of the edge-sealing consistent with that of the base fabric of fluorine resin coating, as a preference, the raw material of fluorine resin is filled with a high-temperature resistant pigment with the mass percent of 1˜5%.
As a preference, before the hot-pressing of Step IV, a fluorine resin adhesive film is filled between the cut fabric of fluorine resin coating and the ring, and the temperature of the hot-pressing is within 200˜300° C. Preferably, the fluorine resin adhesive film refers to PFA or FEP.
In order to melt the raw material of fluorine resin in the slot of the ring or adjacent the ring to form glue, as a preference, in Step IV, the temperature of the hot-pressing is within 330˜400° C. Accordingly, it is unnecessary to fill with the fluorine resin adhesive film between the cut fabric of fluorine resin coating and the ring.
As a preference, the axial thickness of each ring is within 0.1˜0.3 mm.
As a preference, when the cylinder is obtained through the first way in Step I, the nominal pressure for pressure maintaining is in 200˜300 kg/cm2.
Compared with the prior art, in this present invention, as the raw material of fluorine resin is manufactured into necessary rings in advance, the product of the fabric of fluorine resin coating has no seams after edge-sealing with the ring, it is difficult for the edge to disconnect with the base fabric of fluorine resin coating due to the force balance when edge-sealing, and the requirement of the process is very low too. In the meanwhile, the manufacture has no crinkles, no seams and no joints, therefore, the appearance of the product is very neat and beautiful. Due to no crinkles, the material quantity can be reduced and the manufacturing cost becomes lower. Besides, the whole process is simple and the production efficiency is high, and the product quality is stable.
