BACKGROUND

Textile products are dyed and colored in fabric dyeing machines using water and chemicals. Fabric dyeing machines are also called jet dyeing machines. These machines may have different structures depending on the properties of the material to be dyed. In fabric dyeing machines, the fabric transmitted from the order comes to the J-box. J-box can be in O or J form. J-box fabric dyeing machines can be in multiple numbers according to its features. J- box is the area where the fabric from the order is dyed, stored and kept. The fabric classified here is dyed by recirculation process until the desired properties are reached.

The J-box used is in the state of the art. Their width size differs according to the J-box capacity. Due to these high values, a lot of chemicals and water are used. High amounts of chemicals and dyes cause environmental pollution. In addition, the J-box takes up a lot of space. Therefore, there is an unnecessary use of space in the factory area.

Application WO2019220325A1 , which is in the state of the art, relates to the fabric dyeing machine and fabric dyeing method. The invention aims to provide a fabric dyeing machine that minimizes water consumption, a fabric dyeing machine with low operating cost and high energy efficiency, and a fabric dyeing machine that operates with a low bath rate in the range of 1 :2.5 to 1 :3.

All the problems mentioned above have made it necessary to make an innovation in the relevant technical field as a result. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

The present invention relates to J-box in a fabric dyeing machine for eliminating the above- mentioned disadvantages and bringing new advantages to the related technical field.

An object of the invention is to provide a J-box that can be positioned in a smaller area although it has the same capacity as the currently known J-boxes.

Another object of the invention is to provide a fabric dyeing machine that takes up less space.

Another object of the invention is to provide a fabric dyeing machine that consumes less water and chemicals.

Another object of the invention is to provide a fabric dyeing machine that consumes less energy.

Another object of the invention is to provide a fabric dyeing machine that evaluates dead areas on the body.

Another object of the invention is to provide a fabric dyeing machine in which the fabric circulation distance is shortened.

The present invention relates to a J-box in a fabric dyeing machine comprising a washing volume closed by at least one first side wall, at least one second side wall, at least one upper wall, and at least one bottom wall associated with said first side wall and said second side wall, positioned on the body, and comprising at least one inlet opening allowing the fabric to enter said closed volume and at least one outlet opening allowing the fabric to exit said closed volume, in order to realize all the objects that will emerge from the abovementioned and the following detailed description. Accordingly, the novelty is that there is at least one width dimension between the first sidewall and the second sidewall in said outlet opening, the width dimension for dyeing the fabric up to 200 kg in the weight range of 80 gr/m ² and 400 gr/m ² in J-box is between 550 mm and 700 mm, the width dimension for dyeing the fabric up to 250 kg in the weight range of 80 gr/m ² and 400 gr/m ² in J-box is between 700 mm and 800 mm, the width dimension for dyeing the fabric up to 300 kg in the weight range of 120 gr/m ² and 600 gr/m ² in J-box is between 730 mm and 850 mm, and the width dimension for dyeing the fabric up to 400 kg in the weight range of 120 gr/m ² and 600 gr/m ² in J-box is between 800 mm and 970 mm. Thus, the width size is reduced according to the capacity and the weight of the fabric per square meter, and the J-box takes up less space. An efficient system is obtained by saving space in this way.

A possible embodiment of the invention is characterized in that a depth measure between said upper wall and the most distant part of said bottom wall is at least 860 mm. Thus, there is less energy, water, and chemical consumption in the J-box with the same capacity. In this way, the use of harmful substances is reduced, and environmental pollution is reduced. It also saves on costs. In addition, the end part on the inlet opening side of the J-box is positioned higher in the body by reducing the width and increasing the depth size. Thus, the dead areas in the body in the fabric dyeing machine are evaluated.

A possible embodiment of the invention is characterized in that the inlet opening rests against the bottom wall. Thus, the fabric circulation distance is shortened. In this way, the fabric is not damaged, and better-quality dyeing is performed. In addition, the use of unnecessary materials on the J-box is prevented and the cost is saved.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

In this detailed description, the subject matter of the invention is explained only by means of examples that will not have any limiting effect for a better understanding of the subject matter.

Figure 1 shows a representative frontal view of the fabric dyeing machine (10) of the invention. Accordingly, said fabric dyeing machine (10) is used in the coloring of textile materials. The fabric dyeing machine (10) contains at least one nozzle (20) for dyeing/washing. The fabric to be dyed is transmitted to at least one J-box (40) from the said nozzle (20) together with water and chemical material. Said J-box (40) is connected with at least one body (60). There is at least one elbow (30) between the J-box (40) and the nozzle (20). The fabric from the nozzle (20) is transferred to the J-box (40) through the said elbow (30). The fabric to be dyed is taken from the J-box (40) with at least one winch (50). The fabric is transmitted to the nozzle (20) again through said winch (50). This process continues by circulating until the fabric has the desired qualities.

Figure 2 shows a representative perspective view of the J-box (40) of the fabric dyeing machine (10) of the invention. Accordingly, the J-box (40) comprises at least one first sidewall (41 ), at least one second sidewall (42), at least one upper wall (43), and at least one bottom wall (44). The said first sidewall (41) and said second sidewall (42) are placed parallel to each other. In order to obtain a closed volume between the first sidewall and the second sidewall, said upper wall (43) and said bottom wall (44) are positioned between. The upper wall (43) has a rounded shape. Between the upper wall (43) and the bottom wall (44), the first sidewall (41 ) with the form of "J" and the second sidewall (42) are located. There is a width (47) measure between the first sidewall (41) and the second sidewall (42). The size of said width (47) differs according to the fabric weights and the capacity of the J-box (40). The width (47), which differs according to the weight of the fabric dyed in the prior art and the capacity of the J-box (40), is reduced. Thus, fewer chemicals and water are used. The J-box (40) comprises at least one inlet opening (45) for receiving the fabric from at least one nozzle (20). The inlet opening (45) consists of a wide structure. In this way, it is better spread during the penetration of the fabric into the J-box (40). Thus, fabric dyeing efficiency is increased. All parts of the fabric can be dyed proportionally. The fabric taken in through the inlet opening (45) is stacked in the J-box (40). The fabric stacked in the J-box (40) is transmitted to the nozzle through the outlet opening (46) by the winch (50).

Figure 3 shows a representative frontal view of the fabric dyeing machine J-box (40) of the invention. The first sidewall (41) and the second sidewall (42) have a "J" form. The depth (48) between the upper wall (43) and the bottom wall (44) is 860 mm. Space is saved by increasing the depth (48) size and reducing the width (47) size. Thus, an efficient system is established in the space where the fabric dyeing machine (10) is located. At the same time, the end part on the side of the inlet opening (45) of the J-box is located higher in the said body (60). In this way, the unused dead place is evaluated. Thus, a more efficient system is created.

The fabric dyeing/washing process is carried out using water and chemicals in the fabric dyeing machine (10) in a possible use of the invention. The fabric comes from the nozzle (20) and enters the J-box (40) through the inlet opening (45). Dyeing of the fabric is performed in J-box (40). The fabric is stacked and maintained in the J-box during the dyeing process. The fabric is then taken from the outlet opening (46) by the winch (50). The winch (50) is transmitted to the nozzle (20) again. The fabric passing through the nozzle (20) passes through the inlet opening (45) thanks to the elbow (30). All these processes continue by circulating until the fabric has the desired qualities.

According to a possible embodiment of the invention, the width (47) between the first sidewall (41 ) and the second sidewall (42) for dyeing the fabric at weights between 80 gr/m ² and 400 gr/m ² in J-box (40) with a dyeing capacity of up to 200 kg is between 550 mm and 700 mm. The width (47) between the first sidewall (41 ) and the second sidewall (42) is between 700 mm and 800 mm for dyeing the fabric in grammages between 80 gr/m ² and 400 gr/m ² in J-box (40) with a dyeing capacity of up to 250 kg. The width (47) between the first sidewall (41 ) and the second sidewall (42) is between 730 mm and 850 mm for dyeing the fabric in grammages between 120 gr/m ² and 600 gr/m ² in J-box (40) with a dyeing capacity of up to 300 kg. The width (47) between the first sidewall (41 ) and the second sidewall (42) for dyeing the fabric at weights between 120 gr/m ² and 600 gr/m ² in J-box (40) with a dyeing capacity of up to 400 kg is between 800 mm and 970 mm. Thus, the width (47) of the J-box (40) is reduced according to the existing art, and space is saved. J-box (40) with the same dyeing/washing capacity is obtained in a smaller volume. In this way, the space occupied by the fabric dyeing machine (10) can be reduced by reducing its size. On the other hand, more J-boxes (40) can be positioned inside the body (60).

According to a possible embodiment of the invention, the depth (48) between the upper wall (43) and the bottom wall (44) is 860 mm. While the width (42) between the first sidewall (41 ) and the second sidewall is reduced, the depth (48) between the upper wall (43) and the bottom wall (44) is increased. In this way, J-box (40) with the same capacity is obtained in a smaller volume. In addition, water and chemical consumption is reduced. Thus, it saves both cost and energy.

The end portion located on the side of the inlet opening (45) of the J-box is located higher in the said body (60) in a possible embodiment of the invention. Thus, the dead areas within the body (60) in the fabric dyeing machine (10) are used. A more efficient structure is presented in this way. In addition, since the end portion on the side of the inlet opening (45) is positioned higher, the fabric from the nozzle (20) proceeds only through the elbow (30) without the need for any extension pipe (not shown). In this way, the fabric is prevented from contacting metal. At the same time, the circulation distance of the fabric is shortened. Thus, the structure of the fabric is not damaged, and the staining quality is also improved.

The inlet opening (45) is positioned against the bottom wall (44) in a possible embodiment of the invention. In this way, unnecessary material use on the J-box (40) is prevented. Thus, by preventing the cost increase, the circulation distance of the fabric in the J-box (40) is also shortened. Accordingly, the fabric is prevented from being damaged. In addition, the quality of staining is increased.

According to all these explanations, the J-box (40) of the invention is obtained in a smaller volume with the same dyeing/washing capacity. In J-box (40) with 200 kg dyeing capacity, the width (47) for fabric dyeing in grammages between 80 gr/m ² and 400 gr/m ² is between 550 mm and 700 mm, in J-box (40) with 250 kg dyeing capacity, the width (47) for fabric dyeing in grammages between 80 gr/m ² and 400 gr/m ² is between 700 mm and 800 mm, in J-box (40) with 300 kg dyeing capacity, the width (47) for fabric dyeing in grammages between 120 gr/m ² and 600 gr/m ² is between 730 mm and 850 mm, and in J-box (40) with 400 kg dyeing capacity, the width (47) for fabric dyeing in grammages between 120 gr/m ² and 600 gr/m ² is between 800 mm and 970 mm. Thus, space is saved by obtaining J-box (40) in a smaller volume. The depth (48) between the upper wall (43) and the bottom wall (44) is 860 mm. Thus, while the width (47) measure is reduced, the depth (48) measure is increased. Thus, according to the fabric weight per square meter and the dyeing/washing capacity according to the previous art, J-box (40) is provided in a smaller volume with the same capacity. Thus, less energy, water, and chemicals are consumed. Both environmental pollutions is prevented, and the cost is saved.

The protection scope of the invention is specified in the appended claims and cannot be strictly limited to those explained in this detailed description for illustrative purposes. It is evident that a person skilled in the art may exhibit similar embodiments in light of the foregoing without departing from the main theme of the invention. REFERENCE NUMBERS GIVEN IN THE FIGURE
