Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of glass manufacturing technology, specifically to a glass panel strengthening device and strengthening process. Background Technology

[0002] Glass is widely used in buildings for wind insulation and light transmission; it is a composite material. Due to its expanding applications, glass requires higher strength to suit various scenarios. Chemically strengthened glass utilizes chemical methods, based on ion diffusion, to exchange ions on the glass surface. Larger ions replace smaller ions in the glass composition, forming a compressive stress layer. This compressive stress increases the glass's toughness, resulting in higher compressive strength and making it less prone to damage. When the glass surface reaches a certain compressive stress and a certain depth of compressive stress layer, this layer can withstand the thermal shock of flames, providing fire resistance.

[0003] Based on the above principles, when processing glass, it is usually done by immersing the glass in a strengthening liquid for heating reaction. However, since the strengthening liquid and the glass panel are in a static state, it is difficult to ensure the uniformity of heating of the strengthening liquid. On the other hand, the presence of the panel carrier can also cause the panel to be insufficiently processed. Summary of the Invention

[0010] As a further embodiment of the present invention: the elastic drive mechanism includes two sets of transverse structures respectively disposed on the two vertical plates and a disc rotatably mounted on the base. The two sets of transverse structures are respectively connected to the two sliders. The rotation axis of the disc is connected to the transverse shaft rotatably mounted on the base through a second bevel gear set. The transverse shaft is connected to the lead screw through a fifth transmission belt.

[0011] As a further embodiment of the present invention: the transverse structure includes a connecting arm fixed to the slider, a reciprocating plate body slidably fitted with the connecting arm, and multiple sliding rods fixed to the reciprocating plate body by protrusions. The sliding rods are slidably connected to the vertical plate, and a third columnar spring is sleeved on the outer periphery of the sliding rod.

[0014] A glass panel strengthening process, employing the aforementioned strengthening device, includes the following steps: Step 1: Add the strengthening liquid into the chamber and continuously heat and keep the strengthening liquid warm; Step 2: Assemble the panel to be processed onto the mounting bracket using a clamping mechanism; Step 3: The threaded drive mechanism works in the forward direction, driving the two stirring blades in the box to rotate through the transmission mechanism. The threaded drive mechanism causes the two stirring blades to reciprocate in the box through the rolling engagement mechanism. Step four: The threaded drive mechanism drives the mounting bracket to descend until the panel is immersed in the hardening liquid, and drives the elastic drive mechanism to move, causing the two sets of clamping mechanisms to reciprocate to move away from and towards each other. The driven mechanism is triggered, causing the panel to oscillate back and forth in the hardening liquid. Step 5: The threaded drive mechanism reverses its operation until the mounting bracket rises, the panel is pulled out of the strengthening liquid, and then the panel is removed from the mounting bracket.

[0015] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: The present invention has a novel design. In actual processing, the panel to be processed can be assembled onto the mounting frame through the clamping mechanism. Subsequently, the threaded drive mechanism operates, driving the stirring blade to rotate through the transmission mechanism. The stirring blade effectively mixes the strengthening liquid in the tank, thereby ensuring the uniformity of heating of the strengthening liquid. At the same time, the threaded drive mechanism, through the rolling engagement mechanism, causes the stirring blade to reciprocate along the width direction of the tank, thereby continuously changing the position of the stirring blade to improve the thoroughness of mixing of the strengthening liquid and the flow rate of the strengthening liquid. Secondly, the threaded drive mechanism first drives the mounting frame to... The glass panel is lowered until it is immersed in the strengthening liquid inside the chamber. The threaded drive mechanism drives the elastic drive mechanism to move, which in turn drives the two sets of clamping mechanisms to reciprocate along the edge of the panel. This prevents the panel from being improperly processed in areas obscured by the clamping mechanism. At the same time, during the movement of the clamping mechanism, the driven mechanism is triggered, causing the panel to perform a reciprocating swaying motion in the chamber. This effectively improves the adequacy of the contact between the panel and the strengthening liquid. In summary, through the cooperation between various mechanisms and components and the use of mechanical interlocking, the automatic strengthening process of the glass panel is achieved, which can effectively improve the processing effect. Therefore, this device is suitable for widespread use. Attached Figure Description

[0025] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0026] Furthermore, elements in this invention are referred to as being "fixed to" or "set on" another element, which may be directly on the other element or may also include an intervening element. When an element is considered to be "connected" to another element, it may be directly connected to the other element or may also include an intervening element. The terms "vertical," "horizontal," "left," "right," and similar expressions used herein are for illustrative purposes only and do not represent the only possible implementations.

[0027] Please see Figures 1-8 In this embodiment of the invention, a glass panel strengthening device includes a base 1 and a box 2 disposed on the base 1 for holding a strengthening liquid, and further includes: Mounting bracket 3 is slidably connected to two vertical plates 4 mounted on the base 1. Two sets of clamping mechanisms for fastening the panel are symmetrically and movably provided on the mounting bracket 3. The mounting bracket 3 is also connected to a threaded drive mechanism mounted on the side of the housing 2. The threaded drive mechanism can drive the mounting bracket 3 to descend so that the panel is immersed in the strengthening liquid. An elastic drive mechanism is installed on the base 1 and connected to two sets of clamping mechanisms. The elastic drive mechanism is also connected to the threaded drive mechanism. The elastic drive mechanism can drive the two sets of clamping mechanisms to move away from or closer to each other, and at the same time trigger the driven mechanism provided on the mounting frame 3 to make the panel perform a reciprocating swaying motion in the strengthening liquid. Two stirring blades 5 are provided in the housing 2. The rotating shaft of the stirring blade 5 is connected to the threaded drive mechanism through a transmission mechanism. The stirring blade 5 is also connected to the threaded drive mechanism through a rolling fit mechanism. The threaded drive mechanism can drive the stirring blade 5 to reciprocate along the width direction of the housing 2 through the rolling fit mechanism.

[0028] In actual processing, the panel to be processed can be assembled onto the mounting frame 3 using a clamping mechanism. Subsequently, the threaded drive mechanism operates, driving the stirring blade 5 to rotate via a transmission mechanism. The stirring blade 5 effectively mixes the strengthening liquid in the chamber 2, ensuring the uniformity of heating of the strengthening liquid. At the same time, the threaded drive mechanism, through a rolling engagement mechanism, causes the stirring blade 5 to reciprocate along the width direction of the chamber 2, thereby continuously changing the position of the stirring blade 5 to improve the thoroughness of mixing the strengthening liquid and the flow rate of the strengthening liquid. Next, the threaded drive mechanism first drives the mounting frame 3 to descend until the panel is immersed in the chamber. Within the strengthening liquid in compartment 2, the threaded drive mechanism drives the elastic drive mechanism to move, which in turn drives the two sets of clamping mechanisms to reciprocate along the edge of the panel. This prevents the panel from being improperly processed in areas obscured by the clamping mechanism. Simultaneously, during the movement of the clamping mechanism, the driven mechanism is triggered, causing the panel to perform a reciprocating swaying motion within compartment 2. This effectively improves the adequacy of contact between the panel and the strengthening liquid. In summary, through the mutual cooperation between various mechanisms and components, and by adopting a mechanical interlocking method, the automatic strengthening process of the glass panel is achieved, while effectively improving the processing effect. Therefore, this device is suitable for widespread use.

[0029] Please refer to it again. Figure 5 and Figure 6 The clamping mechanism includes a slider 6 slidably mounted on the mounting frame 3, a sleeve 10 rotatably mounted on the slider 6, and a vertical arm 11 fixed to the sleeve 10. The sleeve 10 is connected to the driven mechanism, and the vertical arm 11 is provided with two sets of elastic limiting structures. The slider 6 is connected to the elastic driving mechanism.

[0030] In detail, the elastic limiting structure includes a guide cylinder 12 fixed on the upright arm 11, a telescopic column 13 slidably fitted with the guide cylinder 12, and a limiting wheel 16 rotatably installed at one end of the telescopic column 13. The other end of the telescopic column 13 is fixedly connected to a boss 14 slidably provided in the guide cylinder 12. A first columnar spring 15 is also sleeved on the outer periphery of the telescopic column 13. One end of the first columnar spring 15 is connected to the boss 14, and the other end is connected to the inner wall of the guide cylinder 12. In use, the telescopic column 13 is pulled outwards towards the guide cylinder 12. Correspondingly, the boss 14 compresses the first columnar spring 15. Then, the panel to be processed is placed between the upper and lower limit wheels 16. Under the elastic force of the first columnar spring 15, the panel is clamped.

[0031] The driven mechanism includes a drive shaft 8 and a rotating shaft 9 rotatably mounted on the mounting bracket 3. The rotating shaft 9 is slidably fitted with the sleeve 10, and the outer wall of the rotating shaft 9 has two strip-shaped protrusions 901. The inner wall of the sleeve 10 is provided with two strip-shaped grooves that are adapted to the strip-shaped protrusions 901. The slider 6 is fixedly connected to a drive tube 17, which is slidably fitted with the drive shaft 8. The inner wall of the drive tube 17 is provided with a protrusion, which extends into a sliding groove 801 provided on the outer wall of the drive shaft 8 and is slidably connected to the drive shaft 8. The sliding groove 801 is wavy.

[0032] When the threaded drive mechanism moves, it drives the two sliders 6 to reciprocate on the mounting bracket 3, moving closer and further apart. As a result, the limiting wheel 16 rolls back and forth along the edge of the panel to prevent insufficient reinforcement at the contact point between the panel and the limiting wheel 16. Correspondingly, the slider 6 drives the sleeve 10 to slide back and forth on the rotating shaft 9, and the drive tube 17 to slide back and forth on the transmission shaft 8. During this process, the protrusions on the inner wall of the drive tube 17 slide in the groove 801, causing the transmission shaft 8 to rotate back and forth. Thus, the transmission shaft 8 drives the rotating shaft 9 to rotate back and forth through the first transmission belt 7, causing the panel to sway back and forth in the strengthening liquid, improving the adequacy of the contact between the strengthening liquid and the panel.

[0033] Please refer to it again. Figure 8The threaded drive mechanism includes a lead screw 19 rotatably mounted on the side of the housing 2, a threaded sleeve 21 sleeved on and threadedly connected to the lead screw 19, and a drive motor 18 mounted on the side of the housing 2. The output end of the drive motor 18 is connected to the lead screw 19. A guide rod 20 is also fixed to the side of the housing 2. The threaded sleeve 21 is fixed to a guide sleeve 22 slidably sleeved on the guide rod 20. A drive column 24 and a drive wheel 23 are fixedly connected to the threaded sleeve 21 and the guide sleeve 22. A sliding engagement assembly is provided between the drive column 24 and the mounting bracket 3. The drive wheel 23 is connected to the rolling engagement mechanism. The sliding engagement assembly includes a driven plate 25 fixed to the mounting bracket 3. The driven plate 25 has a transmission groove adapted to the drive column 24. The drive column 24 extends into the transmission groove and is slidably connected to the driven plate 25. The transmission groove includes an inclined section 2501 and a straight section 2502 connected together.

[0034] When the drive motor 18 drives the lead screw 19 to rotate, under the guidance of the guide rod 20 and the guide sleeve 22, the threaded sleeve 21 will engage with the lead screw 19 and move along the axial direction of the lead screw 19. Correspondingly, the drive column 24 slides along the inclined section 2501, causing the driven plate 25 to give way. The driven plate 25 then drives the mounting bracket 3 to move down. After the drive column 24 moves into the straight section 2502, the mounting bracket 3 completes the downward movement process, and the panel is immersed in the strengthening liquid.

[0035] Please refer to it again. Figure 2 and Figure 7 The elastic drive mechanism includes two sets of transverse structures respectively disposed on the two vertical plates 4 and a disc 42 rotatably mounted on the base 1. The two sets of transverse structures are respectively connected to the two sliders 6. The rotation axis of the disc 42 is connected to the transverse shaft 40 rotatably mounted on the base 1 through the second bevel gear set 41. The transverse shaft 40 is connected to the lead screw 19 through the fifth transmission belt 39.

[0036] Furthermore, the second bevel gear set 41 includes a third bevel gear mounted on the horizontal shaft 40 and a fourth bevel gear coaxially mounted with the disk 42, the fourth bevel gear meshing with the third bevel gear.

[0037] The transverse structure includes a connecting arm 44 fixed to the slider 6, a reciprocating plate 45 slidably fitted with the connecting arm 44, and multiple sliding rods 46 fixed to the reciprocating plate 45 via protrusions 4501. The sliding rods 46 are slidably connected to the vertical plate 4, and a third columnar spring 43 is sleeved on the outer periphery of the sliding rods 46. The two ends of the third columnar spring 43 are respectively connected to the protrusions 4501 and the vertical plate 4. Two follower wheels 4201 are symmetrically arranged on the disk 42 about the center, and the follower wheels 4201 abut against the reciprocating plate 45.

[0038] When the drive motor 18 drives the lead screw 19 to rotate, the lead screw 19 will drive the horizontal shaft 40 to rotate through the fifth transmission belt 39. Then, the horizontal shaft 40 drives the disc 42 to rotate through the second bevel gear set 41. The two follower wheels 4201 will make circular motion and intermittently push the reciprocating plate 45. Under the action of the third columnar spring 43, the reciprocating plate 45 will reciprocate and drive the slider 6 to slide back and forth on the mounting frame 3 through the connecting arm 44.

[0039] Please refer to it again. Figure 2 and Figure 4 A second transmission belt 29 connects the rotating shafts of the two stirring blades 5. Two sliding plates 27 are movably disposed in the housing 2, and the sliding plates 27 are connected to a guide structure disposed in the housing 2. The two stirring blades 5 are respectively rotatably mounted on the two sliding plates 27. The two sliding plates 27 are respectively fixedly connected to a transmission plate 37 by a connecting plate 36. The connecting plate 36 is slidably sealed to the housing 2, and the transmission plate 37 is provided with a plurality of trapezoidal protrusions 3701 equidistantly arranged. The drive wheel 23 abuts against the protrusions 3701.

[0040] The guide structure includes two fixed rods 26 fixed in the housing 2 and two second columnar springs 28 respectively sleeved on the outer periphery of the two fixed rods 26. The sliding plate 27 is slidably disposed on the two fixed rods 26. One end of the second columnar spring 28 is connected to the inner wall of the housing 2, and the other end is connected to the sliding plate 27.

[0041] A vertical shaft 30 is rotatably mounted on the side of the housing 2. The vertical shaft 30 is connected to the lead screw 19 via a first bevel gear set 38. The transmission mechanism includes a first connecting plate 31 and a second connecting plate 32 rotatably connected via a shaft 33. The end of the first connecting plate 31 away from the shaft 33 is rotatably connected to the vertical shaft 30. The end of the second connecting plate 32 away from the shaft 33 is rotatably connected to the rotating shaft of the stirring blade 5. A third transmission belt 34 is connected between the shaft 33 and the vertical shaft 30. The shaft 33 is also connected to the rotating shaft of the stirring blade 5 via a fourth transmission belt 35.

[0042] The first bevel gear set 38 includes a first bevel gear mounted on the lead screw 19 and a second bevel gear mounted on the vertical shaft 30, and the second bevel gear meshes with the first bevel gear.

[0043] When the lead screw 19 rotates, it drives the vertical shaft 30 to rotate via the first bevel gear set 38. The vertical shaft 30 then drives the stirring blade 5 to rotate via the third transmission belt 34, the shaft 33, and the fourth transmission belt 35, causing the stirring blade 5 to continuously circulate the strengthening liquid in the housing 2. At the same time, the drive wheel 23 moves together with the threaded sleeve 21 and the guide sleeve 22. When the drive wheel 23 acts on the protrusion 3701, it will cause the transmission plate 37 to move out of place. Correspondingly, the transmission plate 37 drives the connecting plate 36 to rotate. When the sliding plate 27 slides, the second cylindrical spring 28 is compressed. When the second cylindrical spring 28 rebounds, the sliding plate 27 returns to its original position. This cycle repeats. As the drive wheel 23 passes through multiple protrusions 3701 in sequence, the stirring blade 5 will reciprocate multiple times along the width of the housing 2 and maintain its rotation. On the one hand, this can fully mix the strengthening liquid, making the strengthening liquid heat evenly. On the other hand, it can accelerate the circulation of the strengthening liquid, making the strengthening effect better.

[0044] As another embodiment of the present invention, another glass panel strengthening process is also proposed, which uses the aforementioned strengthening device and includes the following steps: Step 1: Add the strengthening liquid into chamber 2 and continuously heat and keep the strengthening liquid warm; Step 2: Assemble the panel to be processed onto the mounting bracket 3 using the clamping mechanism; Step 3: The threaded drive mechanism works in the forward direction, driving the two stirring blades 5 in the housing 2 to rotate through the transmission mechanism. The threaded drive mechanism causes the two stirring blades 5 to reciprocate in the housing 2 through the rolling engagement mechanism. Step 4: The threaded drive mechanism drives the mounting bracket 3 to descend until the panel is immersed in the strengthening liquid, and drives the elastic drive mechanism to move, causing the two sets of clamping mechanisms to reciprocate to move away from and towards each other. The driven mechanism is triggered, causing the panel to oscillate back and forth in the strengthening liquid. Step 5: The threaded drive mechanism reverses its operation until the mounting bracket 3 rises, the panel is pulled out of the strengthening liquid, and then the panel is removed from the mounting bracket 3.

3. A glass panel strengthening process, employing the strengthening device as described in claim 1, characterized in that, Includes the following steps: Step 1: Add the strengthening liquid into the box (2) and continuously heat and keep the strengthening liquid warm; Step 2: Assemble the panel to be processed onto the mounting bracket (3) using the clamping mechanism; Step 3: The threaded drive mechanism works in the forward direction, driving the two stirring blades (5) in the box (2) to rotate through the transmission mechanism. The threaded drive mechanism causes the two stirring blades (5) to reciprocate in the box (2) through the rolling engagement mechanism. Step 4: The threaded drive mechanism drives the mounting bracket (3) to descend until the panel is immersed in the strengthening liquid, and drives the elastic drive mechanism to move, causing the two sets of clamping mechanisms to move away from and towards each other in a reciprocating manner. The driven mechanism is triggered, causing the panel to swing back and forth in the strengthening liquid. Step 5: The thread drive mechanism reverses its operation until the mounting bracket (3) rises, the panel is pulled out of the strengthening liquid, and then the panel is removed from the mounting bracket (3).
