Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of handicraft production, and particularly relates to a method for manufacturing incense ash beads and an incense ash bead product. Background Art
[0002] In the past, glass handicrafts, such as glass ball handicrafts, generally only artistically visualized the shape of the glass ball, without making full use of the transparent characteristics of the glass ball to display the colorful scenery of the arts and crafts patterns embedded therein due to the refraction of light. In particular, handicrafts embedded with landscape photos, cloud and mist landscape photos, waterweeds, or collectible calligraphy and painting pieces have not been seen in the market yet. Moreover, the inlays of existing glass handicrafts are all made of relatively hard materials, such as metals, jade, etc., and the resulting glass handicrafts cannot achieve a dreamy artistic effect. Summary of the Invention
[0003] The purpose of the present invention is to overcome the defects existing in the prior art and provide a method that can embed flexible materials in a transparent body, so that the embedded patterns can be exquisite, dreamy, crystal clear, and due to the different compositions of various incense ashes, the three-dimensional patterns inside the incense ash beads produced can present various colorful artistic effects.
[0004] To achieve the above purpose, the technical solution of the present invention is to design a method for manufacturing incense ash beads, and the manufacturing solution includes the following technological steps: S1: Select two transparent rod materials; S2: Use a flame heating spray gun to heat one end of the first transparent rod material to a molten state first; S3: After step S2, attach incense ash to the end of the first molten transparent rod material; S4: Heat the end of the first transparent rod material with incense ash attached in step S3 again to make it further softened; S5: Use a shaping tool to perform shaping treatment on the end of the first transparent rod material softened in step S4 to make it into a set shape; S6: Use a flame heating spray gun to heat the end of the first transparent rod material after shaping in step S5 again to a molten state; S7: Also use a flame heating spray gun to heat the end of the second transparent rod material to a molten state; S8: Use the end of the second transparent rod material heated to a molten state to evenly stick to the end of the first transparent rod material that has been shaped in step S6, and wrap the surface of the end of the first rod material after shaping; S9: Then use a flame heating spray gun to further heat the second transparent rod material to integrate it with the first transparent rod material; S10: Use cutting tools to cut off the end of the transparent rod material after heating in step S9, and put it into a graphite mold to knead it into the shape of a round bead. S11: Heat the tungsten needle with a flame heating spray gun to a temperature higher than the melting state of the transparent rod material, and then use the heated tungsten needle to drill a through-hole in the round bead made in step S10. S12: Put the round bead with a through-hole drilled in step S11 into heat-insulating sand for heat preservation, cool the temperature of the round bead to room temperature, and then take it out and wash it.
[0005] The preferred technical solution is that the transparent rod material includes a glass rod material or a transparent plastic rod material. In principle, any transparent solid material can be used to make incense ash beads, but glass and transparent hard plastics can be used as preferred transparent materials. Because glass and transparent hard plastic raw materials have good light transmission effects, wide raw material sources, low costs, and are easy to process and manufacture.
[0006] A further preferred technical solution is that the glass rod material includes high borosilicate glass rod material. There are also many types of glass raw materials, and there are also various glass raw materials that can be used to make handicrafts. However, high borosilicate glass is selected because this type of glass has good light transmittance, high hardness, is not easily scratched or damaged, has less impurity content, relatively low raw material costs, and is easy to process.
[0007] A further preferred technical solution is also that the transparent plastic rod material includes polymethyl methacrylate rod material, or polycarbonate rod material, or polystyrene rod material. Since plastic materials have lower costs and are easier to process, the melting temperature of plastics is only about 100°C to 250°C, which is about 10% to 15% of the melting temperature of glass. Therefore, its processing and manufacturing costs are lower and it is easier to process and manufacture. Its disadvantage is that plastic materials are softer in texture, and the products processed and manufactured are easily scratched and damaged.
[0008] The preferred technical solution is also that the flame heating spray gun uses liquefied gas or butane as the heating fuel. Using liquefied gas or butane as the heating fuel has the characteristics of high heating temperature, wide source, easy control of heating temperature, and safe and environmentally friendly use.
[0009] In order to be able to quickly heat the glass to the melting state, a further preferred technical solution of the present invention is also that the temperature for heating the high borosilicate glass rod material to the melting state in steps S2, S4, S6, S7, S8, and S9 is controlled at 1200°C to 1600°C. Among them, the better heating temperature can be controlled within the range of 1300°C to 1400°C. Within this temperature range, it is more suitable for the melting temperature of high borosilicate glass.
[0010] In order to quickly heat the plastic to a molten state, a further preferred technical solution of the present invention is that the temperature for heating the polymethyl methacrylate rod, or the polycarbonate rod, or the polystyrene rod in the steps S2, S4, S6, S7, S8, and S9 to the molten state is controlled at 100°C to 250°C.
[0011] In order to evenly attach the incense ash to the end of the first molten transparent rod, or attach the incense ash to the end of the first molten transparent rod according to a pattern setting, a further preferred technical solution of the present invention is that for attaching the incense ash to the end of the first molten transparent rod in step S3, the end of the first molten transparent rod is dipped in the incense ash furnace to pick up the incense ash, or sprayed on the end of the molten transparent rod by spraying, or dotted on the end of the molten transparent rod by dotting. In this way, the incense ash can be attached to the end of the first molten transparent rod with incense ash layers of different areas, shapes, thicknesses, and depths according to the requirements of the pattern design, so as to form incense ash bead patterns with different artistic effects.
[0012] In order to better, faster, and more conveniently shape the incense ash layer pattern, a further preferred technical solution of the present invention is that the shaping process in step S5 includes using tweezers, scissors, and a spatula to shape the transparent rod in a molten and soft state by stabbing, pinching, pulling, and tugging. When the transparent rod is heated to the molten state, it is relatively easy to perform shaping processing on the transparent rod by using tweezers, scissors, and a spatula and adopting the methods of stabbing, pinching, pulling, and tugging.
[0013] In order to enable the incense ash beads processed in the molten state to cool down evenly and slowly, and prevent problems such as uneven deformation, cracking, or delamination, a further preferred technical solution of the present invention is that the time for placing the round beads in the heat-insulating sand in step S12 is 3 to 12 hours.
[0014] All incense ash beads made of transparent materials and using the above process steps belong to the incense ash bead products protected by the present invention. Of course, the incense ash selected by the present invention can also be replaced by other powdery materials. Incense ash bead products similar to those made by using other powdery materials to replace the incense ash and using the above process steps also belong to the protection scope of the incense ash bead products protected by the present invention.
[0015] The advantages and beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: The production process of the incense ash beads is simple and convenient. Tools such as blowtorches, tweezers, scissors, and beaters are easily obtainable, and processing techniques such as poking, pinching, pulling, and tugging are easy to master. The incense ash beads processed and produced by the method of the present invention are exquisitely beautiful in appearance, and the three-dimensional patterns are dreamy and illusory, and can form ever-changing three-dimensional patterns such as clouds, mountains, rivers, waterweeds, and flowers within the transparent glass sphere. Compared with the existing method of embedding objects with fixed shapes in glassware, the glass incense ash beads made by this process have significant differences. The remarkable feature is that the internal three-dimensional patterns of each incense ash bead product are all different, and the internal patterns are ever-changing. Moreover, due to the different compositions of various incense ashes, the internal three-dimensional patterns of the incense ash beads produced can present various colorful hues.

[0017] The following examples further describe the specific implementation manners of the present invention. The following examples are only used to more clearly illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention and should not be used to limit the protection scope of the present invention.
[0018] Example 1 The technical solution of the present invention is to design a method for making incense ash beads, and the manufacturing solution includes the following technological steps: The first step: Select two transparent high borosilicate glass rod materials; The second step: Use a flame heating spray gun to heat one end of the first transparent rod material to about 1400 °C to make it in a molten state; The third step: Attach incense ash to the end of the first molten transparent rod material in an incense ash container; The fourth step: Use the flame heating spray gun to heat the end of the first transparent rod material with attached incense ash to about 1450 °C again to make it further soften; The fifth step: Use shaping tools such as tweezers, scissors, and beaters, and adopt methods such as poking, pinching, pulling, and tugging to shape the end of the softened first transparent rod material in the fourth step to make it into a set shape; The sixth step: Use a blowtorch to heat the end of the first transparent high borosilicate glass rod material shaped in the fifth step with a flame heating spray gun to about 1450 °C to make it in a molten state; The seventh step: Use a flame heating blowtorch to heat the end of the second transparent high borosilicate glass rod material to about 1400 °C to make it in a molten state; Step 8: Use the end of the second transparent high borosilicate glass rod material heated to a molten state to evenly adhere to the end of the first shaped transparent rod material, and wrap the surface of the end of the first shaped end: Step 9: Then use a flame heating spray gun to further heat it to about 1450 °C, so that the second transparent high borosilicate glass rod material and the first transparent high borosilicate glass rod material are integrated into one; Step 10: Use scissors to cut off the end of the transparent high borosilicate glass rod material after heating in Step 9, and put it into a graphite mold and knead it into a round bead shape; Step 11: Heat the tungsten needle with a flame heating spray gun to about 1600 °C, which is higher than the melting temperature of the transparent high borosilicate glass rod material, and use the heated tungsten needle to make a through hole in the round bead made in Step 10; Step 12: Put the round bead with a through hole made in Step 11 into heat-insulating sand for heat preservation. The heat preservation time is about 10 hours. Let the temperature of the round bead drop to room temperature, and then take it out and wash it.
[0019] The preferred technical solution is that, in principle, any transparent solid material can be used to make the incense ash beads, but glass and transparent hard plastics can be used as the preferred transparent materials. Because the raw materials of glass and transparent hard plastics have good light transmission effects, wide raw material sources, low costs, and are easy to process and manufacture.
[0020] A further preferred technical solution is that the glass rod material includes a high borosilicate glass rod material. There are also many types of glass raw materials, and there are also many glass raw materials that can be used to make handicrafts. However, high borosilicate glass is selected because this kind of glass has good light transmittance, high hardness, is not easily scratched and damaged, has a small impurity content, relatively low raw material costs, and is easy to process.
[0021] Another preferred technical solution is that the spray gun uses liquefied gas or butane as the heating fuel. Using liquefied gas or butane as the heating fuel has the characteristics of high heating temperature, easy control of the heating temperature, and safe and environmentally friendly use.
[0022] In order to evenly attach incense ash to the end of the first molten transparent rod, or attach incense ash to the end of the first molten transparent rod according to a pattern setting, a further preferred technical solution of the present invention is that, for attaching incense ash to the end of the first molten transparent high borosilicate glass rod in the third step, the end of the first molten transparent rod can be dipped in incense ash in an incense ash furnace, or sprayed onto the end of the molten transparent rod by spraying, or the incense ash can be dotted on the end of the first molten transparent rod using a dotting technique. In this way, incense ash layers of different sizes, shapes, thicknesses, and depths can be attached to the end of the first molten transparent rod according to the requirements of the pattern design, thereby forming incense ash bead patterns with different artistic effects.
[0023] When the transparent high borosilicate glass rod is heated to a molten state, it is relatively easy to perform plastic processing on the transparent rod using tweezers, scissors, and a paddle board, and methods such as poking, pinching, pulling, and tugging.
[0024] In order to enable the incense ash beads processed in a molten state to cool down evenly and slowly, prevent uneven deformation, cracking, or delamination, a further preferred technical solution of the present invention is that the round beads in the twelfth step are placed in heat-insulating sand for about 10 hours for heat preservation.
[0025] Example 2 The processing steps for manufacturing incense ash beads in Example 2 are basically the same as those in Example 1, except that the transparent rod used is a transparent polymethyl methacrylate (also known as acrylic) rod. The heating temperature for heating the transparent polymethyl methacrylate rod to a molten state using a blowtorch is about 135°C, and the round beads in the twelfth step are placed in heat-insulating sand for about 3 hours for heat preservation.
[0026] Example 3 The processing steps for manufacturing incense ash beads in Example 3 are basically the same as those in Example 1, except that the transparent rod used is a transparent polycarbonate rod. The heating temperature for heating the transparent polycarbonate rod to a molten state using a blowtorch is about 200°C, and the round beads in the twelfth step are placed in heat-insulating sand for about 4 hours for heat preservation.
[0027] Example 4 The processing steps for manufacturing incense ash beads in Example 4 are basically the same as those in Example 1, except that the transparent rod used is a transparent polystyrene rod. The heating temperature for heating the transparent polystyrene rod to a molten state using a blowtorch is about 120°C, and the round beads in the twelfth step are placed in heat-insulating sand for about 3 hours for heat preservation.
[0028] A further preferred technical solution is that the transparent plastic rod material is a polymethyl methacrylate rod material, a polycarbonate rod material, or a polystyrene rod material. Since the cost of plastic materials is lower and they are easier to process, the melting temperature of plastics is only 100°C to 250°C, which is about 10% to 15% of the melting temperature of glass. Therefore, their processing and manufacturing costs are lower and they are easier to process and manufacture. Their disadvantage is that the plastic materials are relatively soft, and the products processed and manufactured are prone to being scratched and damaged.
[0029] All the incense ash beads made of transparent materials and by adopting the above process steps belong to the incense ash bead products protected by the present invention. Of course, the incense ash selected by the present invention can also be replaced by other powdery materials. The similar incense ash bead products made by replacing the incense ash with other powdery materials and by adopting the above process steps also belong to the protection scope of the incense ash bead products protected by the present invention.
[0030] The above are only the preferred embodiments of the present invention. It should be noted that for those of ordinary skill in the art in this technical field, without departing from the technical principle of the present invention, several improvements and refinements can be made, and these improvements and refinements should also be regarded as the protection scope of the present invention.
