Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of glassware processing technology, specifically to a multi-color heating and coloring glassware forming equipment and its implementation method. Background Technology

[0002] Glassware forming equipment refers to mechanical devices specifically designed for manufacturing glassware. Utilizing molten glass raw materials at high temperatures, it shapes glass into vessels of various shapes and sizes through molds. It can achieve automated or semi-automated production processes. Glassware forming equipment not only improves production efficiency but also ensures product quality and consistency. It is an indispensable tool in the modern glass manufacturing industry. Through precise temperature control and forming technology, it can produce exquisite and durable glassware to meet people's daily life and decorative needs.

[0003] Chinese Patent Publication No. CN221797288U discloses a glass vessel forming device, including a base, a first forming mold, and a second forming mold. A drag chain is provided on the top of the base. The first forming mold is located on one side of the top of the base, and the second forming mold is located at the top of the drag chain. Glass vessels are formed by bonding the first forming mold and the second forming mold. Cooling water is injected into the first cooling tank and the second cooling tank through the first water pipe and the second water pipe, respectively. Air is blown into the glass vessel through the air pump and the air blowing port to cool the glass vessel, so that the glass vessel can be cooled and formed quickly, achieving the effect of rapid cooling and forming.

[0004] In the glass forming equipment of the aforementioned patent, due to the high viscosity of the molten glass during glass processing, it is impossible to accurately control the amount of molten glass put into the mold. When pressing a mold with too much molten glass, the molten glass will overflow. The equipment does not cut or collect the overflowing molten glass in time, resulting in waste of molten glass. Furthermore, the glass solidified from the overflowing molten glass requires a long time for further polishing. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a multi-color heated glassware forming device and method. The extrusion block is pressed longitudinally by a telescopic rod, which causes the extrusion block to extrude molten glass and form a high-temperature glassware. Excess molten glass flows to the top of the mold. While the telescopic rod is pressing, a slice cuts the molten glass at the top of the mold. Subsequently, the slice pushes the cut molten glass to be stored in a collection cylinder. The molten glass stored in the collection cylinder can be directly reused, thus solving the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: a multi-color heating and coloring glass forming device, comprising a base, a second sliding rod horizontally welded to the upper end of the base, a connecting frame slidably disposed inside the second sliding rod, an installation groove recessed in the middle of the base, a collecting cylinder disposed inside the installation groove, an extrusion block disposed at the upper end of the installation groove, and slices disposed at the upper ends of both sides of the extrusion block, one side of two slices being threadedly engaged by a second bidirectional threaded rod, and the other side of two slices being slidably connected by a limiting rod, the connecting frame being able to slide laterally along the second sliding rod, the lateral sliding adjusting the lateral position of the mold, facilitating the gradual processing and positional movement of the glassware.

[0007] Preferably, four molds are arranged horizontally inside the connecting frame. The molds are symmetrically arranged. A first connecting frame is provided at the lower end of the outside of the mold. A first bidirectional threaded rod is horizontally inserted through the lower end of the outside of the mold. The outside of the first bidirectional threaded rod is threadedly engaged with the through position of the mold. By twisting the first bidirectional threaded rod, relative movement can be generated with the mold. The first connecting frame restricts the rotational motion of the mold to a horizontal linear motion.

[0008] Preferably, a first handle is welded to one end of the first bidirectional threaded rod, and the protruding first handle can drive the first bidirectional threaded rod inside the first connecting frame to rotate.

[0009] Preferably, a second connecting frame is provided outside the limiting rod and the second bidirectional threaded rod. A telescopic rod is provided at the upper end of the second connecting frame. The second connecting frame can connect the slice and the extrusion block at the lower end, so that the slice and the extrusion block can move synchronously by being pushed by the telescopic rod.

[0010] Preferably, heating elements are provided on both sides of the collecting cylinder. The heating elements can heat the material inside the collecting cylinder, so that the material collected in the collecting cylinder can be kept at a high temperature.

[0011] Preferably, a insertion frame is provided on one side of the upper end of the base, and fans are arranged in an array on the inner wall of the insertion frame facing the middle position of the base. When the insertion frame is wrapped around the outside of the connecting frame, the start of the fans combined with the restriction of the insertion frame can make the gas flow efficiently and quickly, thereby improving the cooling speed of the glass.

[0012] Preferably, the front end of the insertion frame is provided with a first sliding rod, which passes through the front end of the insertion frame and is slidably connected to the through position of the insertion frame. The insertion frame can be adjusted by sliding longitudinally within the first sliding rod, and the insertion frame can be smoothly wrapped around the outside of the connecting frame by sliding longitudinally.

[0013] Preferably, the edges of the two molds are provided with inclined guide slopes, which allow the separated glass liquid to flow and move towards the collection cylinder, facilitating the collection of the glass liquid by the collection cylinder.

[0014] A method for implementing a multi-color heat-colored glassware forming apparatus includes the following steps:

[0015] Step 1: Add quartz sand raw material and colorant into the electric melting furnace and heat it;

[0016] Step 2: After the quartz sand raw material is subjected to high temperature, it forms liquid glass. The glass falls from the receiving tank and the user uses a container to collect the liquid glass at the receiving tank.

[0017] Step 3: The liquid glass is evenly poured between the four molds. After being supported by the connecting frame, the four molds slide laterally on the second sliding rod, and the lateral sliding causes the four molds to approach the extrusion block one by one.

[0018] Step 4: The extension of the telescopic rod can push the extrusion block. As the extrusion block moves vertically downward, it can squeeze the liquid glass inside the mold, and the excess liquid glass overflows to the top of the mold.

[0019] Step 5: As the extrusion block moves, the slicer will cut through the excess liquid glass covering the upper part of the mold after the extrusion block reaches the set maximum extension distance.

[0020] Step 6: The rotation of the second handle can drive the second bidirectional threaded rod to rotate. After the rotation of the second bidirectional threaded rod is restricted, the slice will push the separated liquid glass, causing the liquid glass to flow along the guide slope and fall into the collection cylinder at the lower end.

[0021] Step 7: The heating element heats the collection cylinder inside the mounting slot, causing the collection cylinder to continuously heat up and keep the molten glass inside in a liquid state.

[0022] Step 8: Pour the molten glass into the mold using the collection tube. Repeat steps 4 to 6 until all four molds contain pressed glassware.

[0023] Step 9: Slide the insert frame around the four first connecting frames, and the fan draws in the gas to complete the efficient airflow and quickly cool the glass inside the four molds.

[0024] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0025] 1. In this invention, the telescopic rod drives the extrusion block to extrude the molten glass placed inside the mold. Excess molten glass is extruded to the surface around the upper end of the mold. The slices surrounding the extrusion block move with the extrusion block and approach the upper end of the mold, actively cutting off the excess molten glass that remains on the upper end of the mold. The user manually twists and drives the second bidirectional threaded rod to rotate. The rotation of the second bidirectional threaded rod causes the slices to unfold and carries the molten glass away from the mold. The cut molten glass falls into the collection cylinder and can be poured out and used again. This process treats the molten glass before it solidifies, avoiding the need for long-term polishing after the glass solidifies and the waste of molten glass.

[0026] 2. The connecting frame of this invention slides laterally outside the second sliding rod, so that the molten glass placed in the four molds sequentially contacts the extrusion block and is pressed into shape. Then, the four molds slide to the lower end of the insert frame. The insert frame slides longitudinally along the first sliding rod to cover the high-temperature molten glass that has been pressed. When the fan is started, the fan can drive the gas from the position of the first connecting frame toward the telescopic rod. The gas flow process will cool down the pressed molten glass and provide auxiliary cooling for the extrusion block and the electric melting furnace used for pressing, so that the equipment can operate continuously and efficiently and safely.

[0036] The present invention will be further described below with reference to specific embodiments.

[0037] Example 1

[0038] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, this embodiment of a multi-color heated glass forming device includes a base 1. A second sliding rod 10 is horizontally mounted on the upper end of the base 1 and is welded and fixed to the base 1. A connecting frame 11 is horizontally slidably arranged inside the second sliding rod 10. The horizontal sliding of the connecting frame 11 causes four sets of molds 14 to move horizontally to complete the step-by-step processing of the glassware. An insertion frame 4 is provided on one side of the upper end of the base 1. Fans 6 are arranged in an array on the inner wall of the insertion frame 4 facing the middle of the base 1. The start of the fans 6 can draw gas and drive the gas to a high-speed and stable flow trajectory, so that the gas can quickly contact the high-temperature glass and cool it down.

[0039] The front end of the insertion frame 4 is provided with a first sliding rod 5. The first sliding rod 5 passes through the front end of the insertion frame 4 and is slidably connected to the through position of the insertion frame 4. The sliding connection allows the insertion frame 4 to slide longitudinally, which facilitates the insertion frame 4 to wrap and cool the four sets of molds 14. The wrapping of the insertion frame 4 makes the gas flow trajectory clear, which facilitates efficient cooling of the glass.

[0040] In addition, such as Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, a mounting groove 16 is recessed in the middle of the base 1. Heating elements 17 are provided on both sides of the mounting groove 16. A collecting cylinder 9 is provided between the two heating elements 17. The lower end of the collecting cylinder 9 is connected to the upper end of the mounting groove 16 by a slot. The slot connection allows the collecting cylinder 9 to be stably placed inside the mounting groove 16, so that the collecting cylinder 9 can stably receive excess glass liquid.

[0041] like Figure 7 and Figure 8As shown, in order to facilitate the cutting of excess and overflowing molten glass, an extrusion block 8 is provided at the upper end of the mounting groove 16. Slices 19 are provided at the upper ends of both sides of the extrusion block 8. The slices 19 move toward the mold 14 together with the extrusion block 8. After the extrusion block 8 completes the extrusion, the slices 19 will simultaneously contact the mold 14 and cut and separate the excess molten glass. In order to push the separated molten glass, one side between the two slices 19 is penetrated by a second bidirectional threaded rod 20, and the outer side of the second bidirectional threaded rod 20 is threadedly engaged with the penetration position of the slices 19. The other side between the two slices 19 is slidably connected by a limiting rod 21. After the second bidirectional threaded rod 20 rotates and moves relative to the slices 19, the limiting rod 21 can make the slices 19 move away from the extrusion block 8. After the extrusion block 8 cuts, it actively pushes the cut molten glass.

[0042] Among them, such as Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, four molds 14 are arranged horizontally inside the connecting frame 11. A first connecting frame 12 is provided at the lower end of the outside of the mold 14. The first connecting frame 12 can wrap around the lower end of the outside of the mold 14. The wrapping of the first connecting frame 12 facilitates the transmission and support of the mold 14.

[0043] In addition, a first bidirectional threaded rod 18 is transversely provided at the lower end of the symmetrical mold 14, and the outside of the first bidirectional threaded rod 18 is threadedly engaged with the through position of the mold 14. The position of the mold 14 can be adjusted by rotating the first bidirectional threaded rod 18. When the molds 14 move relative to each other, it is convenient to collect the molten glass and press it. When the molds 14 move in the opposite direction and increase the distance between the molds 14, the glass squeezed inside the mold 14 will be separated from the mold 14.

[0044] One end of the first bidirectional threaded rod 18 extends outside the first connecting frame 12 and is provided with a first handle 13. The first handle 13 is welded and fixed to the first bidirectional threaded rod 18. The first handle 13 can drive the first bidirectional threaded rod 18 to rotate and adjust the position of the mold 14.

[0045] To facilitate the movement of the extrusion block 8 and the surrounding slices 19, such as Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, a second connecting frame 23 is provided on the outside of the limiting rod 21 and the second bidirectional threaded rod 20, and a second handle 22 is provided at one end of the second connecting frame 23. The second handle 22 passes through the second connecting frame 23 and is welded and fixed to the second bidirectional threaded rod 20. The second bidirectional threaded rod 20 can be rotated by the second handle 22. A telescopic rod 7 is provided at the upper end of the second connecting frame 23. The extension and retraction of the telescopic rod 7 can push the extrusion block 8 and the surrounding slice 19.

[0046] Among them, an electric melting furnace 2 is provided on the other side of the upper end of the base 1. After the liquid glass material is put into the electric melting furnace 2 and heated, the liquid glass material can be transformed from solid to liquid. A receiving trough 3 is provided between the lower end of the electric melting furnace 2 and the upper end of the base 1. The liquid material transformed from the solid material in the electric melting furnace 2 is discharged from the receiving trough 3. Referring to Chinese Patent CN207811544U, an energy-saving and environmentally friendly electric melting furnace, the application describes heating materials by electric melting furnace as prior art, so it will not be described in detail here.

[0047] Example 2

[0048] To facilitate the stable discharge and collection of molten glass, the edges of the two molds 14 are provided with inclined guide slopes 15. The molten glass separated and pushed by the slices 19 will move towards the guide slopes 15, and the inclined guide slopes 15 will actively cause the molten glass to fall and be collected by the collection cylinder 9.

[0049] A method for implementing a multi-color heat-colored glassware forming apparatus includes the following steps:

[0050] Step 1: Add dry quartz sand raw material into electric melting furnace 2, add colorant to the raw material, mix the colorant with the quartz sand raw material, put the mixed material into electric melting furnace 2 and heat it;

[0051] Step 2: After the quartz sand raw material is subjected to high temperature, it forms a uniform and bubble-free liquid glass that meets the molding requirements. The glass falls from the receiving tank 3, and the user temporarily receives the liquid glass in the receiving tank 3 with a container.

[0052] Step 3: The liquid glass is evenly poured into the four molds 14. The four molds 14 are supported by the connecting frame 11 and slide laterally on the second sliding rod 10. The lateral sliding causes the four molds 14 to approach the extrusion block 8 one by one.

[0053] Step 4: After the mold 14 moves to the lower end of the extrusion block 8, activate the telescopic rod 7. The extension of the telescopic rod 7 can push the extrusion block 8 toward the middle position of the mold 14. As the extrusion block 8 moves vertically downward, it can squeeze the liquid glass inside the mold 14. The liquid glass is squeezed into a glass vessel, and the excess liquid glass overflows to the upper end of the mold 14.

[0054] Step 5: Slice 19 moves together with extrusion block 8. After extrusion block 8 reaches the set maximum extension distance, slice 19 will cut the excess liquid glass covering the upper part of mold 14.

[0055] Step 6: Rotate the second handle 22. The rotation of the second handle 22 can drive the second bidirectional threaded rod 20 to rotate. After the rotation of the second bidirectional threaded rod 20 is restricted by the limiting rod 21, the slice 19 moves relative to the extrusion block 8. The slice 19 pushes the separated liquid glass, causing the liquid glass to flow along the guide slope 15 and fall into the collection cylinder 9 at the lower end.

[0056] Step 7: The heating element 17 heats the collection cylinder 9 inside the mounting groove 16, so that the collection cylinder 9 continues to heat up and keeps the glass liquid inside in a liquid state.

[0057] Step 8: After the collection cylinder 9 is slid out of the mounting slot 16, the molten glass is poured into the mold 14 for further processing of the glassware. After the poured glassware is in the mold 14, repeat steps 4 to 6 until all four molds 14 contain pressed glassware.

[0058] Step 9: Slide the insertion frame 4 around the four first connecting frames 12, start the fan 6, the fan 6 draws in gas to complete efficient air flow, quickly cools the glass in the four molds 14, and at the same time cools the extrusion block 8 and slice 19 used for pressing.

[0059] Working principle: The molten glass heated by the electric melting furnace 2 is poured one by one into the grooves in the four molds 14. The four molds 14 move one by one to the lower end of the extrusion block 8. The extension of the telescopic rod 7 can push the extrusion block 8 towards the groove in the mold 14. The extrusion block 8 extrudes the molten glass to form glassware. At the same time, the slice 19 will contact the mold 14 and cut off the excess molten glass at the upper end of the mold 14. The second handle 22 drives the second bidirectional threaded rod 20 to rotate and generate relative movement with the inside of the slice 19. After being restricted by the limiting rod 21, the slice 19 moves laterally away from the extrusion block 8, so that the separated excess liquid falls into the collection cylinder 9. The collection cylinder 9 can be removed and the collected molten glass can be poured back into the mold 14 for subsequent extrusion of glassware. The molten glass extruded by the extrusion block 8 and cut by the slice 19 slides into the insert frame 4. The fan 6 can be started to extract gas to complete the high-speed cooling of the glass. The first handle 13 drives the first bidirectional threaded rod 18 to rotate. The first bidirectional threaded rod 18 will separate the mold 14 and take out the cooled glassware in the mold 14.
