Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of plastic parts manufacturing, in particular to a hollow glass production process. Background Art

[0002] Insulating glass is a highly effective sound- and heat-insulating glass made by bonding two or three panes of glass to an aluminum alloy frame using a high-strength, airtight composite adhesive. Widely recognized for its superior properties over conventional double-glazed glass, insulated glass creates a dry air space between the glass layers. This air is kept dry by the presence of a desiccant inside the glass that absorbs water molecules. This prevents condensation from forming inside the glass when the temperature drops, while the dew point on the outer surface of the glass increases.

[0003] However, the traditional insulating glass production process, such as the technical solution disclosed in the patent with application number CN202410396842.7 and invention name "A hollow glass production line and its production process", has poor sound insulation and heat insulation effects on the insulating glass produced, and the effect does not last long. Summary of the Invention

[0004] Based on this, it is necessary to provide a hollow glass production process to address the technical problems that the sound insulation and heat insulation effects of the hollow glass prepared by the traditional hollow glass production process are poor and the duration is short.

[0005] A hollow glass production process, comprising the following steps: Glass cutting steps: cutting the glass sheet into preset shapes and sizes; Glass polishing steps: polish the edges of the cut glass; Glass grooving steps: open an annular sealing groove around one side of the polished glass; Glass cleaning steps: fully clean the glass after the annular sealing groove is opened; Glass drying step: drying the cleaned glass; Glass tempering step: tempering the dried glass; Rubber ring filling steps: Take a piece of tempered glass and fill the annular sealing groove with a hot melt rubber ring; Aluminum bulkhead preparation steps: Fill the aluminum bulkhead with molecular sieve; Aluminum bulkhead gluing steps: Apply butyl glue to the outer wall of the aluminum bulkhead; First joining step: press the side of a glass with an annular sealing groove to the aluminum frame; Second joining step: Press the side of the other glass with the annular sealing groove and the side of the aluminum frame facing away from the other glass together, so that the hot melt adhesive rings are accommodated in the two annular sealing grooves; heat treatment is performed during the joining process, so that the two glass pieces are sealed together by the hot melt adhesive rings to form an insulating sealed cavity; at the same time, the two glass pieces are sealed together by the aluminum frame and combined with the hot melt adhesive rings to form an annular sealed insulating cavity; Sealing steps: Use sealant to wrap and seal the edges of the two pieces of glass, and at the same time fill the sealant into the space formed by the two pieces of glass and the aluminum partition frame.

[0006] In one embodiment, in the glass grooving step, the distance between the edge of the annular sealing groove and the edge of the glass is 2.8 to 3.2 centimeters.

[0007] In one embodiment, the distance between the edge of the annular sealing groove and the edge of the glass is 3 cm.

[0008] In one embodiment, in the first lamination step, the size of the aluminum spacer is smaller than the size of the glass and larger than the size of the annular sealing groove.

[0009] In one embodiment, the distance from the edge of the aluminum frame to the edge of the glass is 0.8 cm to 1.2 cm.

The glass cutting step is used to cut the glass plate into a preset shape and size. The glass polishing step is used to polish the edges of the glass. The glass grooving step is used to open annular sealing grooves around one side of the glass. The glass cleaning step is used to thoroughly clean the glass after the annular sealing groove is opened to remove dust and impurities on the glass. The glass is dried in the glass drying step. The glass is tempered in the glass tempering step. The molecular sieve is filled into the aluminum spacer frame in the aluminum spacer frame preparation step, which can dry the heat-insulating sealing cavity and the annular sealing heat-insulating cavity.

[0022] See also Figure 1 The present invention provides a hollow glass production process, which comprises the following steps: Step 101: Glass cutting step: cutting the glass plate into a preset shape and size.

[0023] In this embodiment, the preset shape is a square or a circle. Specifically, a glass cutting machine is used to cut the glass plate into a preset shape and size.

[0024] Step 102: Glass polishing step: polishing the edges of the cut glass.

[0025] Specifically, a grinder is used to grind the edges of the cut glass to improve the safety performance of the glass and the adhesion of the edges of the glass.

[0026] Step 103: Glass grooving step: An annular sealing groove is opened around one side of the polished glass.

[0027] Specifically, a groove cutting device is used to cut an annular sealing groove around one side of the polished glass. In this embodiment, the distance between the edge of the annular sealing groove and the edge of the glass is 2.8 to 3.2 centimeters. Furthermore, the distance between the edge of the annular sealing groove and the edge of the glass is 3 centimeters.

[0028] Step 104: Glass cleaning step: fully clean the glass after the annular sealing groove is opened.

[0029] Specifically, the glass after the annular sealing groove is opened is fully cleaned by using a cleaning device to remove dust and impurities on the glass.

[0030] Step 105: Glass drying step: drying the cleaned glass.

[0031] Specifically, a dryer is used to dry the cleaned glass to remove residual moisture on the glass.

[0032] Step 106: Glass tempering step: Tempering the dried glass.

[0033] Specifically, the dried glass is tempered by tempering equipment.

[0034] Step 107: Rubber ring filling step: Take a piece of tempered glass and fill the annular sealing groove with a hot melt rubber ring.

[0035] The shape and size of the hot melt rubber ring are adapted to the annular sealing groove.

[0036] Specifically, a hot melt adhesive ring is filled into the annular sealing groove of a piece of tempered glass.

[0037] Step 108: Aluminum bulkhead preparation step: Fill the aluminum bulkhead with molecular sieve.

[0038] Specifically, molecular sieves are filled in the aluminum partition frame to ensure the dry state of the insulating glass insulation sealing cavity and the annular sealing insulation cavity.

[0039] Step 109: Gluing of aluminum bulkhead: Apply butyl glue to the outer wall of the aluminum bulkhead.

[0040] Specifically, a glue sprayer is used to apply butyl glue on the outer wall of the aluminum frame so as to seal and bond the aluminum frame to the glass.

[0041] Step 110: First joining step: Press one side of a glass with an annular sealing groove to the aluminum spacer frame.

[0042] Specifically, a laminating device is used to press and bond the side of a glass sheet with the annular sealing groove to the aluminum spacer. In this embodiment, during the first laminating step, the aluminum spacer is smaller than the glass and larger than the annular sealing groove. The distance from the edge of the aluminum spacer to the edge of the glass is 0.8 cm to 1.2 cm. Specifically, the distance from the edge of the aluminum spacer to the edge of the glass is 1 cm. The distance from the edge of the aluminum spacer to the edge of the annular sealing groove is 0.8 cm to 1.2 cm. Specifically, the distance from the edge of the aluminum spacer to the edge of the annular sealing groove is 1 cm.

[0043] Step 111: Second Lamination Step: Press the side of the other glass with the annular sealing groove against the side of the aluminum frame facing away from the other glass, so that the hot-melt adhesive rings are contained within the two annular sealing grooves. During the lamination process, heat is applied to seal the two glass pieces together via the hot-melt adhesive rings, forming a heat-insulating, sealed cavity. Simultaneously, the two glass pieces are sealed together by the aluminum frame, forming a sealed, heat-insulating cavity with the hot-melt adhesive rings.

[0044] Specifically, a laminating device is used to press together the side of the other glass with the annular sealing groove and the side of the aluminum frame facing away from the other glass. During this process, the hot-melt adhesive rings are contained within the two annular sealing grooves. During the laminating process, a heat treatment is applied, melting the surface of the hot-melt adhesive rings, sealing the two glass pieces together through the hot-melt adhesive rings to form an insulating and sealed cavity. Simultaneously, the two glass pieces are sealed together by the aluminum frame, forming an annular sealed and insulating cavity with the hot-melt adhesive rings.

[0045] Step 112: Sealing step: Use sealant to wrap and seal the edges of the two pieces of glass, and at the same time fill the sealant into the space formed by the two pieces of glass and the aluminum spacer.

[0046] Specifically, an automatic sealing machine is used to wrap and seal the edges of the two pieces of glass with sealant, and at the same time, the sealant is filled into the space formed by the two pieces of glass and the aluminum partition frame.

[0047] To improve the structural stability and thermal insulation performance of insulating glass, in one embodiment, a dry inert gas is filled into the insulating sealed cavity and the annular sealed insulating cavity. Furthermore, the inert gas is argon. Argon can increase the air pressure within the insulating sealed cavity and the annular sealed insulating cavity, thereby improving the structural stability of the insulating glass. Furthermore, argon can also enhance the thermal insulation performance of the insulating glass. Thus, filling the insulating sealed cavity and the annular sealed insulating cavity with dry inert gas can improve the structural stability and thermal insulation performance of the insulating glass.

The glass grooving step is used to open annular sealing grooves around one side of the glass. The glass cleaning step is used to thoroughly clean the glass after the annular sealing groove is opened to remove dust and impurities on the glass. The glass is dried in the glass drying step. The glass is tempered in the glass tempering step. The molecular sieve is filled into the aluminum spacer frame in the aluminum spacer frame preparation step, which can dry the heat-insulating sealing cavity and the annular sealing heat-insulating cavity. The two pieces of glass are encapsulated by the rubber ring filling step, the aluminum spacer frame gluing step, the first joining step, the second joining step and the sealing step. The insulating sealing cavity and the annular sealing heat-insulating cavity in the insulating glass obtained by the insulating glass production process have a perfect sealing effect. Specifically, the hot-melt rubber ring, the aluminum spacer frame and the sealant play a multiple sealing role. The insulating glass obtained by the insulating glass production process has good sealing, excellent sound insulation effect, high structural strength and excellent structural stability.
