For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0081] The following is combined with Figure 1-10 And specific implementation methods further illustrate the technical solution of the present invention.

[0082] A safe and controllable glass tempering heating furnace, comprising a plurality of heating units, wherein the heating units are installed in a furnace body 1, the furnace body 1 is mounted above a lower furnace frame 2, and a lifting mechanism is provided between the furnace body 1 and the lower furnace frame 2;

[0083] The heating unit comprises a fan unit 10, an upper heating module and a lower heating module arranged in sequence from top to bottom; the fan unit 10 comprises at least two horizontally arranged fans, the upper heating module comprises a plurality of upper heating wires 52 and a plurality of upper radiation plates 42, and the lower heating module comprises a plurality of lower heating wires 51 and a plurality of lower radiation plates 41 arranged from bottom to top;

[0084] The upper heating module and the lower heating module are respectively located above and below the conveying roller 12 for conveying the glass sheet to be tempered;

[0085] The upper heating module is provided with an upper thermocouple 63 and a middle thermocouple 62;

[0086] The upper thermocouple 63 is located between the fan unit 10 and the upper heating wire 52, and the upper thermocouple 63 is located between two adjacent fans; the middle thermocouple 62 is arranged below the lower plate surface of the upper radiation plate 42;

[0087] The lower heating module is provided with a lower thermocouple 61;

[0088] The upper end of the lower thermocouple 61 passes through the refractory support seat 7, and passes upward from the lower plate surface of the lower radiation plate 41 to the upper plate surface exposed on the lower radiation plate 41;

[0089] When the temperature difference measured by the upper thermocouple 63 , the middle thermocouple 62 and the lower thermocouple 61 exceeds a set threshold, the lifting mechanism is started to open the gap between the furnace body 1 and the lower furnace frame 2 .

[0090] The furnace body 1 and the lower furnace frame 2 of the embodiment of the present invention shown in the drawings are both bilaterally symmetrical structures.

[0091] like Figure 1-6 As shown, in the safe and controllable glass tempering heating furnace of the present invention, 3-4 upper heating wires 52 are set as a group, and an upper thermocouple 63 is provided below each group of upper heating wires 52; 3-4 lower heating wires 51 are set as a group, and a lower thermocouple 61 is provided in the middle of each group of lower heating wires 51, and at least one upper thermocouple 63 is provided between two adjacent fan units 10; the upper thermocouple 63, the middle thermocouple 62 and the lower thermocouple 61 are provided, and the heat source is relatively concentrated, and the temperature distribution in the heating furnace is monitored from multiple angles of top, middle and bottom in time, and the wind pressure in the heating unit is adjusted according to the actual temperature distribution, which can not only obtain better heating and energy-saving effects, but also avoid glass furnace explosion incidents.

[0092] The upper heating module is arranged below the wind cover 11 and above the lower heating module; the wind cover 11 can prevent the hot air from being emitted upward, thereby avoiding the loss of heat energy.

[0093] If the wind pressure is too high, the exhaust pipe used to balance the air pressure inside and outside the furnace may not discharge air fast enough, which will cause the air pressure inside the furnace to be too high and may cause dents on the glass surface, affecting the appearance quality of the tempered glass. On the contrary, if the wind pressure is too low, the heat of the upper heating wire 52 may not be dissipated in time, resulting in uneven temperature distribution in the furnace, which may easily lead to uneven heating of the tempered glass and cause furnace explosion, and also affect the service life of the upper heating wire 52.

[0094] When an abnormality occurs, that is, the temperature difference measured by the upper thermocouple 63, the middle thermocouple 62 and the lower thermocouple 61 exceeds the set threshold, the furnace body lifting mechanism is started, the gap between the furnace body 1 and the lower furnace frame 2 is opened, and heat is discharged from the gaps above and below the conveying roller 12 in time, which can avoid the accident of glass furnace explosion and reduce accident losses. The safe and controllable glass tempering heating furnace of the present invention not only has a multi-dimensional temperature monitoring function, but also is provided with a lifting mechanism that can open the gap between the furnace body 1 and the lower furnace frame 2 in time, and has good safety.

[0095] Preferably, a plurality of wind pressure detection tubes 9 are further provided between the upper radiation plate 42 and the conveying roller 12;

[0096] The pipe opening of the wind pressure detection tube 9 is arranged upward, and the pipe opening is located in the gap between the adjacent upper radiation plates 42; the wind pressure detection tube 9 is also equipped with a detection end of a wind pressure sensor.

[0097] By detecting the wind pressure at various locations and taking into account the uniformity of temperature distribution, the operating speed of the fan unit 10 is adjusted so that the fan unit 10 in the heating furnace maintains a wind pressure and wind speed that relatively matches the heat dissipation speed of the upper heating wire 52, thereby ensuring the quality of the output tempered glass products.

[0098] Preferably, the lower heating module further comprises the refractory support seat 7;

[0099] The fire-resistant support seat 7 is arranged between the lower radiation plate 41 and the lower heating wire 51;

[0100] The middle part of the lower radiation panel 41 is mounted on the top surface of the refractory support seat 7;

[0101] The upper part of the fire-resistant support seat 7 is provided with a downwardly recessed installation groove 71; the installation groove 71 is a U-shaped groove; the lower heating wire 51 is placed in the installation groove 71;

[0102] The distance between the top surface of the lower heating wire 51 and the bottom surface of the lower radiation plate 41 is greater than the diameter of the circle where the coiled lower heating wire 51 is located;

[0103] The width of the installation groove 71 in the left-right direction is greater than the diameter of the circle where the coiled lower heating wire 51 is located.

[0104] The metal lower radiation plate 41 will soften under high temperature conditions and bend downward, which may easily touch the lower heating wire 51, causing the lower heating wire 51 to short-circuit to the ground, or even burn out or break the lower heating wire 51, and may also cause damage to the solid-state relay connected to the heating wire 1, requiring immediate shutdown of the furnace for inspection and maintenance.

[0105] like Figure 2 and 3 As shown, the refractory support seat 7 is arranged between the lower radiation plate 41 and the lower heating wire 51; even if the lower radiation plate 41 is deformed at high temperature, it will not touch the lower heating wire 51. Therefore, the refractory support seat 7 of the present invention can protect the lower heating wire 51 from being touched by the deformed and sunken lower radiation plate 41, thereby avoiding shutdown for maintenance and reducing production losses, and has good safety performance.

[0106] The width of the installation groove 71 in the left and right directions is slightly larger than the diameter of the circumference of the coiled lower heating wire 51, which is convenient for the installation of the lower heating wire 51 and does not affect the heat dissipation of the lower heating wire 51. The lower heating wire 51 also has good installation stability; the distance between the top surface of the lower heating wire 51 and the bottom surface of the lower radiation plate 41 is larger than the diameter of the circumference of the coiled lower heating wire 51, which can ensure that the lower radiation plate 41 deformed by heat will not touch the lower heating wire 51, and has better safety.

[0107] Furthermore, the refractory support seat 7 is also provided with a mounting through hole portion 72;

[0108] The mounting through hole portion 72 is disposed on the groove wall between two adjacent mounting grooves 71; the mounting through hole portion 72 passes through the groove wall from bottom to top;

[0112] The cone bottom port of the conical through hole portion 722 is located on the bottom surface of the refractory support seat 7;

[0113] The upper end of the lower thermocouple 61 is installed through the cylindrical through hole portion 721 and the tapered through hole portion 722 in sequence.

[0114] like Figure 1-6 As shown, the refractory support seat 7 provided with the installation through hole portion 72 can be directly installed at the original installation position of the lower thermocouple 61, without the need to set up an additional installation position, which is convenient for equipment modification.

[0115] The tapered through hole portion 722 has a guiding function. During installation, the lower thermocouple 61 can be directly inserted upward into the tapered through hole portion 722, so that the lower thermocouple 61 can be smoothly introduced into the cylindrical through hole portion 721, thereby improving the installation efficiency. The maintenance or inspection of the lower thermocouple 61 is more convenient, and the lower thermocouple 61 can be repaired or inspected without stopping the furnace, thereby improving the work efficiency of the installation and maintenance of the lower thermocouple 61.

[0132] like Figure 7 and 8 As shown, the driving motor 31 has good driving force. The first reducer 32 with two left and right output ends can output the power source to both sides synchronously, and the output torque is strong and stable.

[0133] like Fig. 9 and 10 As shown, when the furnace body 1 is raised to a high position, the latch 37 is inserted into the latch hole 383, which can further improve the safety of maintenance personnel, operating personnel and equipment when the inner cavity of the heating furnace is open.

[0134] The tail of the latch 37 is connected to one end of a chain, and the other end of the chain is suspended on the outer wall of the screw lift 38. When the latch 37 is not inserted into the latch hole 383, the latch 37 is suspended on the outer wall 37 of the screw lift 38 through the chain.

[0135] In some embodiments, the lifting mechanism further includes at least two intermediate screw reducers 353;

[0136] The two middle screw reducers 353 are symmetrically arranged between the two front screw reducers 351 and the two commutators 34;

[0137] The input end of the middle screw reducer 353 is connected to the first output shaft of the commutator 34 through a transmission roller; the output end of the middle screw reducer 353 is connected to the input end of the front screw reducer 351 through a transmission roller;

[0138] The screw lifting frames 38 are respectively provided near the middle of the left and right sides of the furnace body 1, and the lower ends of the two screw lifting frames 38 are respectively fixed to the upper top surfaces of the middle of the left and right sides of the lower furnace frame 2;

[0139] The output ends of the two middle screw reducers 353 are respectively connected to the upper ends of the screws 382 in the screw lifting frame 38 at the corresponding positions in a transmission manner;

[0140] The middle screw reducer 353 and the front screw reducer 351 , as well as the middle screw reducer 353 and the commutator 34 are respectively connected via transmission rollers 36 , and the sprocket couplings 33 are provided at both ends of the transmission rollers 36 .

[0141] If the furnace body 1 is long, two of the screw lifting frames 38 and two matching middle screw reducers 353 can be added in the middle of the furnace body 1 accordingly, which can reduce the load of the front screw reducer 351 and the rear screw reducer 352 located at the front and rear corners, improve the safety of the heating furnace during lifting, increase the application range of the safe and controllable glass tempering heating furnace, and ensure the service life of the transmission equipment.

[0142] Transmission rollers 36 and sprocket couplings 33 are also installed at both ends of the central screw reducer 353, which can make the transmission and lifting of the screw 382 at various positions have better synchronization effect and stability, and can correspondingly increase the safety and stability of the safe and controllable glass tempering heating furnace.

[0143] Preferably, it also includes a first ceramic ring 81 and a second ceramic ring 82;

[0144] The material of the refractory support seat 7 is refractory ceramic;

[0145] The first ceramic ring 81 and the second ceramic ring are respectively mounted on the top and the middle of the lower thermocouple 61;

[0146] The top end of the lower thermocouple 61 is exposed above the top end of the first ceramic ring 81; the lower end of the first ceramic ring 81 is inserted into the upper end of the cylindrical through hole 721;

[0147] The top end of the second ceramic ring 82 is inserted into the lower end of the cylindrical through hole portion 721 ; the lower end of the second ceramic ring 82 is located in the middle of the tapered through hole portion 722 .

[0148] like Figure 1-6 As shown, the top end of the lower thermocouple 61 is exposed above the top end of the first ceramic ring 81 to ensure the accuracy of the temperature measurement in the furnace.

[0149] The top and the middle of the lower thermocouple 61 are respectively provided with a first ceramic ring 81 and a second ceramic ring 82 , and the installation through hole 3 is installed, which can not only protect the lower thermocouple 61 from collision damage, but also improve the installation stability of the lower thermocouple 61 .

[0150] The material of the refractory support seat 7 is refractory ceramic, which also has insulating properties. The outer wall of the lower thermocouple 61 between the lower end of the first ceramic ring 81 and the top of the second ceramic ring 82 does not need to be covered with a ceramic ring, which can save costs.

[0151] Preferably, the thickness of the lower radiation plate 41 is 1-1.2 mm.

[0152] In order to reduce the deformation of the lower radiation panel 41, the thickness of the lower radiation panel 41 in the prior art is approximately 2 mm. The lower radiation panel 41 of the present invention is mounted on the top of the refractory support seat 7. The refractory support seat 7 has good supporting strength, which can effectively reduce the deformation of the lower radiation panel 41. Under the condition of ensuring the performance and service life of the lower radiation panel 41, the thickness of the lower radiation panel 41 is reduced to 1-1.2 mm, which can effectively save costs.

[0153] In some other embodiments, the lifting mechanism further includes four centrally mounted screw reducers 353;

[0156] The input end of the middle screw reducer 353 located behind the commutator 34 is transmission-connected to the second output shaft of the commutator 34; the output end of the middle screw reducer 353 is transmission-connected to the input end of the rear screw reducer 352;

[0158] The output ends of the four middle screw reducers 353 are respectively connected to the upper ends of the four screws 382 at the corresponding positions in a one-to-one correspondence;

[0160] The eight screw lifting frames 38 are symmetrically distributed around the furnace body 1 with the center of the furnace body 1 as the center point.

[0161] For a heating furnace with a furnace body 1 longer than 8 meters, or when the furnace body 1 has a large self-weight, the eight screw lifting frames 38 centrally and symmetrically distributed around the furnace body 1 not only have a good lifting speed, but also good safety, and the service life of the lifting mechanism is also long.

[0162] In order to reduce the load of the driving device and extend the service life of the equipment, the middle screw reducer 353 can also be set close to the commutator, and the ratio of the distance between the middle screw reducer 353 and the front screw reducer 351 to the distance between the middle screw reducer 353 and the commutator 34 is (3-5):1.

[0163] To sum up, in the above-mentioned embodiment of the present invention, the safe and controllable glass tempering heating furnace is provided with an upper thermocouple 63, a middle thermocouple 62 and a lower thermocouple 61, which not only has a multi-dimensional temperature monitoring function, but also is provided with a lifting mechanism that can timely open the gap between the furnace body 1 and the lower furnace frame 2, and has good safety.

[0164] The present invention also proposes a protective device for the lower heating wire 51 using the refractory support seat 7, which can effectively prevent the lower heating wire 51 from being touched by the deformed and sunken lower radiation plate 41, thereby avoiding shutdown for maintenance and reducing production losses, and can also improve the installation and maintenance work efficiency of the lower thermocouple 61.

[0165] The present invention also proposes a heating wire installation structure using the refractory support seat. The refractory support seat 7 is provided with a cylindrical through hole portion 721 and a conical through hole portion 722 which are connected up and down. The maintenance or inspection of the lower thermocouple 61 is more convenient. The lower thermocouple 61 can be repaired or inspected without stopping the furnace, which can improve the work efficiency of the installation and maintenance of the lower thermocouple 61.
