Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of high-silica glass fiber production, in particular to a shallow liquid surface high-temperature melting device and a continuous production process method for melting ternary high-silica glass with four-level power. Background Art

[0002] High silica glass fiber is first industrially produced by HIThompson in the United States based on the research of Owens Corning Fiberglass Company. High silica glass is made of sodium borosilicate glass through phase separation, acid treatment, drying and sintering. The performance and composition are close to quartz glass. It has the advantages of high temperature resistance, good chemical stability, low thermal expansion coefficient, and ultraviolet light transmission. It is widely used in aerospace, metallurgy, chemical industry, building materials, fire protection and other fields.

[0003] The current technology basically adopts the process of making balls in a single kiln and then heating and drawing the wires. Although some manufacturers have tried to use pool kilns for one-time drawing, they all failed and stopped production due to various reasons. The existing problems are: the glass liquid seriously erodes the refractory materials of the kiln, the quality of the glass liquid has major defects, resulting in wire breakage, serious flying wires, unstable fiber quality, short kiln life, and high energy consumption.

[0004] CM212894424U provides a fully electric melting furnace for producing high-silica glass balls, which includes a furnace body and a drainage device; the furnace body is a two-layer structure, the inner wall of the furnace body is in contact with the molten high-silica glass, and the material of the inner wall of the furnace body is electric melting brick; the material of the outer wall of the furnace body is insulation material; multiple groups of molybdenum electrodes are arranged on the top of the furnace body; the heating ends of the multiple groups of molybdenum electrodes are arranged inside the furnace body; the drainage device is used to guide the molten high-silica glass in the furnace body to flow out. However, the furnace uses a top-inserted electrode structure, the melting part is relatively concentrated, and the staged melting effect cannot be produced. The melting efficiency is low, and the furnace structure is complex. The subsequent glass clarification efficiency is low and the quality is unstable.

[0005] CM215250384U relates to a unit furnace for all-electric melting glass, including a rectangular deep melting pool, a forming pool and a plurality of electrode arrays; through the arrangement of multiple layers and multiple pairs of electrode arrays on the two long sides of the melting channel, the melting, homogenization and clarification zones of the melting channel are clearly divided into zones, and flow to the flow holes along the length direction of the melting channel, taking into account the glass melting process characteristics of the conventional rectangular flame unit furnace, the horizontal distribution of the melting, homogenization and clarification along the length direction of the furnace, and the vertical distribution of the melting, homogenization and clarification along the depth direction of the furnace in the conventional vertical all-electric melting furnace. However, the working pool of the furnace is too small, or even has no working pool, which cannot fully clarify and homogenize the high-viscosity and severely volatile glass liquid. The fiber quality prepared by this furnace type is unstable, and the performance cannot meet the needs of high-silica glass fiber.

[0006] CM101456664A discloses a special fiber glass melting method, the steps are preparing a mixture, melting, and clarifying. Before melting, the electric melting furnace is first baked in the melting process, and the hot spot temperature of the furnace is maintained at 1500-1600°C for normal operation. During melting, the depth of the glass liquid in the melting part is greater than 600mm. The special electric melting furnace of the method includes an electrode, a melting part, and a power supply system for the forming part. The furnace is used to melt low-boron formulas, the furnace pool is deep and large, and the clarification is slow, which cannot meet the efficient production of high-volatile high-silica glass fibers.

[0007] In summary, the current existing technology cannot achieve efficient high-silica glass continuous drawing in a pool furnace, and there is no report in domestic and foreign literature on the one-time continuous drawing of high-boron, high-silicon, high-viscosity, low-expansion glass fibers in a continuous pool furnace.

At the same time, a wire drawing machine hole is set at the bottom of the passage, and a wire drawing machine is connected below the wire drawing machine hole.
