Investigation of Working Bodies of the Device for Separation of Fibers Suitable for Spinning from Cotton Waste ()
1. Introduction
The working parts of the device serve to grind, clean and separate industrially suitable, relatively long fibers from waste and short fibers from technological processes. These working parts must meet certain technical requirements of the technological process in which they are performed.
The following is a list of these technical requirements [1] [2]:
Working bodies should not damage fibrous materials as a result of dynamic shocks to the fibers during movement.
In the process of designing working bodies, when fastening saws, saw drums and guides, care must be taken to ensure that the air flow resulting from their rotational movement is evenly distributed over the width of the device.
Working bodies in direct contact with fibrous materials are subject to abrasion due to regular friction. Therefore, during the design process, special measures against abrasion of the working bodies by friction should not be neglected.
All working bodies projected on the device must be balanced in order to reduce the various voltages applied to the supports and to prevent vibration. The effect of working bodies on fibrous materials can be conditionally divided into three: mechanical, hydraulic and pneumatic effects. Among them, mechanical impact is common, and all working organs in the device are under this influence.
2. Method
2.1. Investigating the Separation Drum Design and Its Robustness
The diameter of the saw drum is also a key parameter, in the working bodies of fibrous waste processing equipment mainly 6 types of diameters from 200 to 610 mm are used.
At present, the optimal diameters of drums (250, 400, 630 mm) are used as a basis for the use of new devices in design constructions [3] [4] [5]. It is not recommended to use working bodies with a diameter of less than 250 mm for processing fibrous materials with a length of 20 mm and more. Because they are more likely to be wrapped in fibrous materials.
The working bodies produced in machine-building enterprises must be tested by a stand, in which the angular velocity of the test stand is 20% higher than the maximum speed of the device. In calculating the strength of the working bodies of the devices, taking into account the centrifugal force acting on them, the speed is calculated by setting the speed in the stand test in the enterprise [6] [7].
The saw drum (Figure 1) has a gauge diameter of 560 mm, the saw blade is taped to the 4 steel cladding, the cladding is fastened to the 3, 7 crossbars, the crossbars 7 are fastened to the shafts by means of a conical bushing 1, 6 through a 1-nut. Both sides of the drum are covered with shit 2, 5 s. The drum rotates on spherical roller bearings 12 and they are attached to the housing 11. It is moved by means of pulley 8, the shields are fastened with 10 bolts.
The crossbar holes are covered with a steel cladding wrapped with saw metal tape using bolts. The holes are drilled and made relatively light so that the steel cladding does not weigh down the device. In addition, the steel coating makes the outer surface of the drum look cylindrical. Steel plates are fastened to the sides of the cross. The load is fixed to the plate to ensure the dynamic balance of the drum between the discs.
The plates are fastened with angles-2. When the drum rotates, these angles create an air flow from the drum axis in the direction of its outer diameter, while at the same time preventing fibrous materials from entering the shafts.
The most stressful part in saw drums is the steel cladding. Steel cladding can be considered as multi-beam beams (Figure 2).
An example of this is the 1-1 cross-section, in which the bending moment is equal to:
(1)
where: R is the centrifugal force acting on the saw;
q is the intensity of the stress on the steel cladding;
a is the distance between the bases.

(2)
where: m is the surface mass of steel coatings and saw sets of 10 cm2, kg;
ω is the rated rotation speed of the saw drum (20% higher than the working speed, 1/s);
ris the distance from the center of gravity to the axis of the saw drum, m.

where: R is the centrifugal force, N;
l—radius of the serrated drum, m.
In that case

where: W is the moment of resistance in the dangerous section of the steel cladding.
A schematic of the hazardous cutting profile of the steel cladding is shown in Figure 3.

then:H = 0.92 m.

Consistency reserve [n] = 1.3 - 1.5; δТ—the strength limit is taken from the reference for the selected material [8] [9].
Taking into account the initially given sizes, we calculate the strength of the saw set drum:

[δТ] = 2.03, in this (δТ = 0.8 - 2.5 [10] ).
As a result of calculating the strength of the saw drum, it is a steel coating that is under more stress, and it was found that the strength reserve of the drum is [δТ] = 2.03(where δТ = 0.8 - 2.5).
This means that the condition is met and the strength of the saw drum is ensured.
Figure 4 shows a graph of the relationship between the centrifugal force acting on the saw drum and the strength of the drum in the hazardous zone.
As a result of the study, a graph of the connection of the centrifugal force in the saw drum to the strength reserve in the drum hazardous zone was obtained.
2.2. Investigation of the Strength of the Separating Drum Shaft of the Fiber Separation Device
This method of calculating the saw drum shaft of a new device is based on the laws of material resistance, the diameter of the hazardous section of the shaft is determined on the basis of the given torque, and the given torque is determined on the basis of bending and twisting torques.
When selecting the initial calculation scheme of the shafts, the shaft supports can be of three different types: stationary hinged, movable hinged and clamped. In this case, it is recommended to take a fixed hinged support on the bearing under the influence of radial and longitudinal forces, and only under the influence of radial forces on a movable hinged support.
Figure 4. Graph of the connection of the centrifugal force in the saw drum to the stability reserve in the hazardous zone of the drum.
In the defined method of calculating the strength of the shaft, in addition to the moments of influence, the safety factor for the hazardous section is determined by taking into account the accumulation of stresses in hazardous sections, the geometric dimensions of the shaft and the effect of surface cleanliness on stress values.
The shafts are rated for strength, durability and vibration resistance. The calculation of the strength of the shafts is done to prevent the formation of plastic deformation and premature breakage. It is known that such cases occur when the shafts are moving with a large load. The main reason for this is random factors and the start-up period. The purpose of the calculation of virginity is to determine the elastic deformation under the influence of load and compare it with the allowable value.
The purpose of calculating vibration resistance is to determine the vibration resistance of the shafts as a result of periodic loading. The calculation of the stiffness and vibration of the shafts is not shown here, as they fall into special cases (spindles of metalworking machines, long transmission shafts, etc.).
The strength of the shafts is one of the key factors that ensure the smooth operation of the fiber separation machine. The following steps are taken into account when calculating the strength of the shafts:
- determine the approximate diameter of the shaft on the basis of design calculations before creating the structure;
- development of shaft structure;
- determination of the voltage in the dangerous section of the shaft;
- to clarify the structure of the shaft, if necessary.
In the study, the shafts of saw drums are resistant to bending moment and torque, stiffness and vibration resistance.
A certain methodology was used to perform the calculations [10] [11] and a shaft model was created for small experiments.
The calculation of the strength of the shafts was performed in the following order:
By drawing a sketch of the shaft, an approximate calculation can be made using an empirical formula or by taking into account the torque effect by the following equation [12]:
(8)
In this case:
—the bending moment of the shaft;
—the moment of maximum and short-term impact;
d—the diameter of the hollow part of the shaft;
—axial and rotational friction coefficients;
l—the length of the bricma-forming transition of the detail.
The contact pressure acting on the surfaces of the attached part in a tight fit is determined from the following equation:
(9)
In this case:
—the inner and outer radii of the shaft cavity;
1) A variable section of the shaft on two supports on which the details are fastened,
2) Is a constant section of the equivalent shaft.
Х—coefficient,
can be seen as, because,
—modulus of viscosity of tsapfa and shaft material;
D—tight transfer between details.
Based on the strength condition of the transitions between details:
(10)
Assuming that the elastic line of the shaft is sinusoidal, we write the following:
, (11)
in this: у—bending of the shaft in the x shear;
In Figure 5(a), we replace the variable cut beam (b) with a permanent cut beam, resulting in:

—the specific equivalent mass of the shaft;
—equivalent moment of inertia of the shaft and
and
—details attached to the shaft and their moment of inertia about the free axis of the shaft;
l—the distance between the shaft supports.
In that case, the specific rotation frequency of the system:

and
obtained into Equation (18), we can find the specific oscillation frequency of the shaft.
Considering the tensile stress along the shaft axis, it looks like this:
(21)
in this: А0—longitudinal force acting on the shaft;
Рk—the critical force acting on the shaft is the bending of the shaft corresponding to the plane of vibration of the shaft;
Determining the critical velocity in the transverse vibration of the saw drum shaft.

To perform the calculation, we use the following scheme [13] (Figure 7).
