Description

[0002] Fused quartz is made by melting natural high-purity silicon dioxide at a temperature above 1760°C and then rapidly cooling it. Due to its unique physical and chemical properties, such as low thermal expansion coefficient, high radiation resistance, high temperature resistance and chemical stability, it performs well in many fields, such as aerospace, semiconductors, and chemical industry. With the continuous development and progress of science and technology, the purity requirements for quartz sand are also constantly increasing.

[0016] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments; based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0017] In the description of the present invention, it should be understood that terms such as “upper”, “lower”, “front”, “back”, “left”, “right”, “top”, “bottom”, “inside” and “outside” indicating directions or positional relationships are based on the directions or positional relationships shown in the accompanying drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing the present invention and simplifying the description, rather than indicating or implying that the device or element referred to must have a specific direction, be constructed and operated in a specific direction, and therefore should not be understood as limiting the present invention.

[0018] like Figure 1 -As shown in Figure 7, in some embodiments, the fused quartz block sorting equipment includes a detection device and a de-impurity device. The detection device is electrically coupled to the de-impurity device. The quartz block is detected by the detection device, and according to the detection result, the de-impurity device cuts off the quartz block with impurities to complete the sorting operation of the quartz block, so as to improve the purity of the quartz block.

[0019] The detection device includes a capture component 3, a position adjustment component 4 and a carrier component 5. Specifically, the capture component 3 and the position adjustment component 4 are both installed on the upper part of the carrier component 5, and the quartz block is placed on the carrier component 5. The position of the quartz block on the carrier component 5 is adjusted by the position adjustment component 4 to facilitate the removal of quartz containing impurities.

[0020] It is worth noting that the impurity removal device includes a cutting assembly 2 and a waste collection basket 6. The cutting assembly 2 is also arranged on the upper part of the supporting assembly 5 to facilitate the cutting of the quartz block and remove the impurities therein. The waste collection basket 6 is arranged on the lower part of the supporting assembly 5 to collect the waste generated during the cutting process, so as to ensure a clean working environment and efficient operation of the equipment.

[0021] In particular, a plurality of detection plates 52 are provided on the carrier assembly 5, and these detection plates 52 are arranged at intervals, and a spacing groove is provided between two adjacent detection plates 52. Correspondingly, a plurality of signal collecting plates 35 are provided on the capture assembly 3, and by arranging these plurality of detection plates 52 and these signal collecting plates 35 one by one up and down, the detection plates 52 transmit detection signals to the signal collecting plates 35.

[0022] When it is detected that the quartz block contains impurities, the cutting tool 29 in the cutting assembly 2 cuts the impurities in the quartz block to separate the portion containing the impurities from the entire quartz block, thereby sorting out high-purity quartz.

[0023] Specifically, in the specific operation process of this embodiment, two sorting steps are required. First, the first sorting is performed: the quartz block that has been sintered and melted is placed at the starting position of the supporting component 5, which is located on the left side of the supporting component 5. Then the detection plate 52 is activated, and the detection plate 52 emits signals upward, and the signal collection plate 35 located above the quartz block is responsible for receiving these signals. After the control system processes these signals, it can accurately determine the specific location of the impurities. At this time, the control system transmits the signal containing impurities to the cutting component 2, and the cutting component 2 drives the cutting knife 29 to separate the impurity-containing part from the whole quartz block. Subsequently, the positioning component 4 located on one side of the starting position is activated to push the quartz block to the right side of the supporting component 5, so that the detected part is located in the spacing groove, and the separated impurity part falls from the spacing groove and is collected by the waste collection basket 6.

[0024] Second sorting: Repeat the first inspection and cutting process, and further, push the quartz block to the left side of the signal through the positioning component 4 located on the right side of the carrier component 5 to ensure that the separated impurities fall from the spacing groove. After these two sortings, the sorting operation of the entire quartz block is completed.

[0025] By the cooperation of the detection plate 52 and the signal collection plate 35 and by using the cutting assembly 2 to precisely cut the impurities in the quartz block, efficient sorting of the fused quartz block is achieved.

[0026] like Figure 6As shown, in some embodiments, the cutting assembly 2 includes a driving mechanism and a cutting mechanism. The driving mechanism is used to drive the cutting mechanism to perform corresponding movement operations. Specifically, the driving mechanism includes a longitudinal movement module and a transverse movement module. The transverse movement module is arranged between the longitudinal movement modules to achieve more accurate and flexible movement control, and the cutting mechanism is connected to the transverse movement module, and the transverse movement module drives the cutting mechanism to move.

[0027] The longitudinal movement module includes a first screw rod 21, a first slider 22 and a first motor 26. The first slider 22 is connected to the first screw rod 21 through a threaded transmission, and the first motor 26 is connected to the first screw rod 21. When the first motor 26 is started and driven, the first screw rod 21 will rotate accordingly. This design enables the first slider 22 to achieve precise longitudinal movement control.

[0028] The lateral movement module includes a second screw rod 24 and a second motor 25. Both ends of the second screw rod 24 are axially connected to the first slider 22, so that the second screw rod 24 can be smoothly rotated while being driven by the first slider 22 to move horizontally. The second motor 25 is arranged at one end of the second screw rod 24. When the second motor 25 is started and driven, the second screw rod 24 will rotate accordingly. This design enables the lateral movement module to accurately control the lateral movement of the driving cutting mechanism.

[0029] Further, in some embodiments, the cutting mechanism includes a second slider 23, a first telescopic rod 27 and a third motor 28. Specifically, the second slider 23 is connected to the second screw rod 24 through a threaded transmission, so that the second slider 23 can move precisely along the direction of the second screw rod 24. The first telescopic rod 27 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the second slider 23, ensuring the stability and reliability of the cutting mechanism. In addition, the third motor 28 is arranged at the bottom of the first telescopic rod 27, and is connected to the cutting tool 29 through its output end, thereby achieving precise cutting of the quartz block.

[0030] In this embodiment, the first telescopic rod 27 drives the third motor 28 to move downward, and the third motor 28 drives the cutting tool 29 to cut the quartz block, thereby ensuring the accuracy and safety of the cutting process.

[0031] like Figure 7 As shown, in some embodiments, the capture assembly 3 further includes a third screw rod 31, a third slider 32 and a connecting plate 34.

A fourth motor 32 is provided at one end of the third screw rod 31, and the third screw rod 31 is driven to rotate by the motor. In addition, a connecting plate 34 is designed at the lower part of the third slider 32, and the connecting plate 34 is used to fix and support the signal collecting plate 35.

[0032] In this embodiment, the specific operation process is to start the fourth motor 32 to rotate the third screw rod 31, and at the same time drive the third slider 32 to drive the signal collecting plate 35 to move forward and backward to collect the feedback signal of the quartz block. And through cooperation with the cutting assembly 2, the quartz block is cut and sorted.

[0033] like Figure 5 As shown, in some embodiments, the positioning components 4 are provided in two groups, and the two groups of positioning components 4 are respectively provided along corresponding sides of the quartz block to facilitate accurate adjustment and positioning of the quartz block.

[0034] Each group of positioning components 4 is provided with a plurality of positioning mechanisms, and the plurality of positioning mechanisms are arranged in a straight line. Each positioning mechanism includes a second telescopic rod 41, a push plate 42, and an anti-warping fixing block 43. Specifically, the movable end of the second telescopic rod 41 is connected to the push plate 42, so that the second telescopic rod 41 can drive the push plate 42 to move forward and backward. At the same time, the anti-warping fixing block 43 is connected to the push plate 42 to ensure that the quartz block will not be tilted or shifted during the movement of the push plate 42, thereby maintaining its stability and accuracy. Through this structural design, the positioning component 4 can effectively and precisely adjust the molten quartz block to ensure that its position during the sorting process is accurate.

[0035] like Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, in some embodiments, the bearing assembly 5 further includes a bearing frame 51, and the detection board 52 is fixedly connected to the bearing frame 51 to ensure that the detection board 52 remains stable during the operation of the device. In particular, a signal transmitter is provided in the detection board 52, and the signal transmitter can emit ultrasonic or optical signals. The signal collection board 35 arranged opposite to the signal transmitter can collect the signal and feed it back to the external control system, and the signal system analyzes the signal result, and feeds the analysis result back to the cutting assembly 2, and the cutting assembly 2 completes the separation of the part containing impurities.

[0036] Furthermore, in some embodiments, the sorting device further includes a sorting shell 1 , and the detection device and the impurity removal device are both arranged in the sorting shell 1 .

[0037] Specifically, the sorting housing 1 is provided with a cutting slide 11, a detection slide 12, a fixing bar 13 and a waste outlet 14. The cutting slide 11 is installed on the top of the sorting housing 1, and the detection slide 12 is located below the cutting slide 11. A first screw rod 21 is embedded inside the cutting slide 11 to provide stable support and movement trajectory for the movement of the cutting component 2. At the same time, a third screw rod 31 is provided inside the detection slide 12 to support the movement and positioning of the capture component 3.

[0038] In order to ensure the stability of the bearing assembly 5, the side wall of the sorting housing 1 is also specially provided with a fixing bar 13 for fixing the bearing assembly 5. In addition, in order to facilitate the discharge of waste, a waste outlet 14 is also provided at the bottom of the sorting housing 1, and the outlet is arranged corresponding to the waste collection basket 6 to ensure that the waste can be discharged smoothly and collected centrally. Through these carefully designed components and structures, the fused quartz block sorting equipment can efficiently complete the sorting of quartz blocks, ensure product quality, and improve production efficiency.
