Abstract
The present invention relates to an apparatus of manufacturing an aerogel sheet. The apparatus of manufacturing the aerogel sheet includes: a fixing vessel into which a blanket is inserted; and an impregnation device putting a silica sol precursor into the blanket inserted into the fixing vessel to impregnate and gelate the silica sol precursor, wherein the impregnation device includes a rotation roller moving from one end to the other end of a top surface of the blanket while rotating to put the stored silica sol precursor into the blanket and thereby to impregnate and gelate the silica sol precursor.
Claims19
An apparatus of manufacturing an aerogel sheet, the apparatus comprising:
- a fixing vessel into which a blanket is inserted;
- and
- an impregnation device putting a silica sol precursor into the blanket inserted into the fixing vessel to impregnate and gelate the silica sol precursor, wherein the impregnation device comprises a rotation roller moving from one end to the other end of a top surface of the blanket while rotating to put the silica sol precursor into the blanket and thereby to impregnate and gelate the silica sol precursor;
- wherein the rotation roller has a smooth outer peripheral surface defining the body of the rotation roller, and comprises on the outer peripheral surface a series of discrete cylindrical injection nozzles that protrude outwardly from and extend above the outer peripheral surface of the rotation roller, and the cylindrical injection nozzles discharge the silica sol precursor through an opening in a distal end of each of the cylindrical injection nozzles.
