DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0040] In order to make the above objectives, features and advantages of the present application more apparent and comprehensible, the specific embodiments of the present application are described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. In the following description, a large number of specific details are set forth in order to fully understand the present application. However, the present application can be implemented in many other ways different from those described herein, and those skilled in the art can make similar improvements without departing from the connotation of the present application, so the present application is not limited by the specific embodiments disclosed below.

[0041] It should be noted that the glass in the present embodiment includes but is not limited to special glass or ordinary glass. The number of layers of ordinary glass is two layers of laminated glass, that is, it includes two single glasses and an adhesive connected between the two single glasses. The thickness of ordinary glass is usually 4mm to 6mm. The number of layers of special glass is at least three layers of laminated glass, and the thickness of special glass is greater than that of ordinary glass, and the thickness is generally greater than 10mm.

[0042] In an embodiment, the present application mainly targets special glass products, including various models of special glass front and rear products. Of course, the present application is also applicable to all bus front and rear glass, all half-scenic glass and other products. This technical solution is also applicable to product combinations of different thickness combinations and multi-layer glass combinations.

[0043] It should be noted that the "front", "back", "upper", "lower", "left" and "right" in this embodiment are based on the actual use state of the glass forming device. The side of the glass forming device facing the user is defined as "front", and the side away from the user is defined as "back". The vertical direction is the up-down direction.

[0044] Referring to Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 4 , an embodiment of the present application provides a glass forming device, which comprises a furnace body 10, a first lifting mechanism 50, a forming mold 70 and a moving carrier 80. The furnace body 10 comprises a main body 101 and a cover body 102, and the cover body 102 is arranged on the bottom of the main body 101 in an openable manner. The first lifting mechanism 50 is connected with the cover body 102, and the first lifting mechanism 50 is used to lift the cover body 102, so that the cover body 102 closes or opens the main body 101. The movement direction of the cover body 102 is shown by an arrow Z in Figure 1 . The forming mold 70 is used to place a glass to be processed 100. The moving carrier 80 is used to place the forming mold 70, and when the cover body 102 is in an open state, the moving carrier 80 can drive the forming mold 70 to move to the upper side of the cover body 102 or move outwards. The movement direction of the moving carrier 80 driving the forming mold 70 is shown by an arrow X in Figure 1 .

[0045] When the cover body 102 has the moving carrier 80 and the forming mold 70 above it, the first lifting mechanism 50 drives the cover body 102 to rise and close the main body 101. When the cover body 102 moves upwards, it will simultaneously drive the moving carrier 80 above it to enter the main body 101. The first lifting mechanism 50 drives the cover body 102 to descend and open the main body 101. The cover body 102 simultaneously drives the moving carrier 80 above it to descend and move out of the main body 101, and then under the driving of the moving carrier 80, the forming mold 70 can move outwards.

[0046] It should be noted that when the moving carrier 80 drives the forming mold 70 to move to the upper side of the cover body 102, that is, the projection of the forming mold 70 in the vertical direction is located on the cover body 102. When the moving carrier 80 drives the forming mold 70 to move outwards, that is, the projection of the forming mold 70 in the vertical direction is located in the area outside the cover body 102 and the main body 101.

[0047] The glass forming device described above, in use, the moving carrier 80 drives the forming mold 70 and the glass 100 to be processed placed above it to move to the top of the cover 102; the first lifting mechanism 50 drives the cover 102 to rise upward, and the cover 102 drives the moving carrier 80, the forming mold 70 and the glass 100 to be processed to rise upward at the same time, so as to realize the closure of the cover 102 and the main body 101; the furnace body 10 performs heating work on the glass 100 to be processed located inside it, and the glass 100 to be processed is softened by heat; after the heating work is completed, the first lifting mechanism 50 drives the cover 102 to move downward, and the glass with the required profile and the moving carrier 80 are lowered synchronously; and after the glass is cooled and formed, the moving carrier 80 drives the forming mold 70 and the glass to move outwards. As can be seen, on the one hand, the cover 102 and the main body 101 form a closed chamber after being closed, so as to improve the heating effect of the glass 100 to be processed, make the glass 100 to be processed heated more uniformly, prevent heat from leaking out during the work process, and reduce the environmental temperature; on the other hand, when the cover 102 is opened, the forming mold 70 can be moved to the top of the cover 102 or moved outwards by the moving carrier 80, so that personnel is not required to take out or put in the forming mold 70 from the cover 102, the degree of automation can be improved, and the labor cost and maintenance cost can be reduced.

[0048] Please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 12 , for example, the glass forming device further comprises a guide rail 91. The guide rail 91 is located below the main body 101, and the moving carrier 80 is arranged on the guide rail 91. In this way, when the cover 102 is opened, the moving carrier 80 moves under the guidance of the guide rail 91, and can smoothly and stably drive the forming mold 70 to move to the top of the cover 102 or move outwards.

[0049] Of course, the moving carrier 80 is not limited to moving under the guidance of the guide rail 91, but can also be moved to the top of the cover 102 or moved outwards in other ways, for example, a combination of a mechanical hand and a robot is used to transfer the moving carrier 80, and for example, a conveying chain is used to transmit and adjust the position of the moving carrier 80, which is not limited in detail herein.

[0050] For example, the glass forming device further comprises a pushing mechanism (not shown in the figure). The pushing mechanism is connected with the moving carrier 80, and the pushing mechanism provides power to make the moving carrier 80 slide along the guide rail 91, so as to move and adjust the position of the moving carrier 80. The pushing mechanism is, for example, a servo motor, and the servo motor is electrically connected with a controller. The moving stroke of the moving carrier 80 on the guide rail 91 can be flexibly adjusted and set according to actual needs. The servo motor can accurately control the up-down position and the waiting lifting position of the moving carrier 80, so that the position of the moving carrier 80 remains consistent after each movement.

[0051] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 For example, the guide rails 91 are two. The two guide rails 91 are arranged in parallel and spaced apart below the main body 101, and the opposite ends of the moving carrier 80 are arranged one by one in the two guide rails 91, and the projections of the two guide rails 91 in the vertical direction are located on opposite sides of the cover body 102, respectively. In this way, on the one hand, under the guidance of the two guide rails 91, the operation of the moving carrier 80 is stable and reliable, and the stability is improved; on the other hand, since the projections of the two guide rails 91 in the vertical direction are located on opposite sides of the cover body 102, respectively, the cover body 102 does not interfere with the two guide rails 91 during the lifting in the vertical direction, so that it can be lifted normally.

[0052] Optionally, the guide rail 91 includes but is not limited to being arranged on the ground or the workbench top. In this embodiment, the guide rail 91 is specifically arranged on the ground, and the upper surface of the guide rail 91 is flush with the ground.

[0053] In order to make the position of the moving carrier 80 consistent after each movement, the furnace body 10 is provided with a reset sensor, and the reset sensor is electrically connected with the controller. The reset sensor is used for sensing the position of the moving carrier 80 and transmitting the position signal of the moving carrier 80 to the controller. The controller adjusts the pushing mechanism according to the position signal, so as to accurately control the position of the moving carrier 80, and then the moving carrier 80 can accurately move the forming mold 70 to the waiting lifting position.

[0054] When the cover body 102 drives the moving carrier 80 to rise upward and close the main body 101, since the moving carrier 80 is located above the cover body 102, the cover body 102 will abut against the main body 101 through the moving carrier 80, that is, the cover body 102 and the main body 101 do not directly abut against each other, but indirectly abut against each other. When there is a gap between the cover body 102 and the main body 101, and the gap size is large, the heat generated during the heating of the main body 101 will leak outward through the gap, thereby affecting the heating uniformity of the glass 100 to be processed.

[0055] For example, the outer peripheral edge of the side of the cover body 102 facing the main body 101 is provided with a first sealing ring 1022. The first sealing ring 1022 is in sealing abutment with the moving carrier 80. The outer peripheral edge of the top of the moving carrier 80 is provided with a second sealing ring 81. The second sealing ring 81 is in sealing abutment with the main body 101. In this way, when the cover body 102 drives the moving carrier 80 to abut against the main body 101, the cover body 102 and the moving carrier 80 abut against each other through the first sealing ring 1022, and the first sealing ring 1022 plays a sealing role; and the second sealing ring 81 on the moving carrier 80 abuts against the main body 101, and the second sealing ring 81 plays a sealing role, thereby improving the sealing performance of the chamber.

[0056] Optionally, the first sealing ring 1022 includes, but is not limited to, a sealing member made of thermal cotton rope or other materials, which is wrapped around the outer peripheral edge of the cover body 102 for one, two or three or more rounds. The diameter of the thermal cotton rope is, for example, 30mm-60mm.

[0057] Optionally, the second sealing ring 81 includes, but is not limited to, a sealing member made of thermal cotton rope or other materials, which is wrapped around the outer peripheral edge of the moving carrier 80 for one, two or three or more rounds. The diameter of the thermal cotton rope is, for example, 30mm-60mm.

[0058] Referring to Figure 10 and Figure 11 , for example, the moving carrier 80 is formed with hollow openings. The number of the hollow openings is, for example, one or more. In this way, while the forming mold 70 is stably supported, heat can be transmitted upward through the hollow openings to the lower side of the glass to be processed 100, achieving the heating function of the glass to be processed 100.

[0059] Referring to Figure 10 and Figure 11 , for example, the moving carrier 80 adopts an open frame structure 82. Optionally, the frame structure 82 of the moving carrier 80 specifically includes a plurality of square tubes spliced and combined, and the opposite two side edges of the moving carrier 80 are each fixed with 3-4 moving wheels 86 that move along the guide rails 91. The moving wheels 86 are, for example, connected with the frame structure 82.

[0060] Referring to Figure 10 and Figure 11 , for example, the moving carrier 80 further includes a first connecting rod 83 and a second connecting rod 84 connected in the frame structure 82. The first connecting rod 83 and the second connecting rod 84 are both provided in a plurality, the plurality of first connecting rods 83 are arranged at intervals, and the plurality of second connecting rods 84 are arranged at intervals. The first connecting rod 83 and the second connecting rod 84 are staggered. The first connecting rod 83 and the second connecting rod 84 are formed with hollow openings.

[0061] Referring to Figure 4 , Figure 8 and Figure 9 , for example, the glass forming device further includes a first support frame 41. The main body 101 is connected with the first support frame 41. The first support frame 41 is specifically placed on the ground or a workbench, and the main body 101 remains stationary in position and is stably supported by the first support frame 41 due to being installed on the first support frame 41. When it is necessary to open the cover body 102, the first lifting mechanism 50 drives the cover body 102 to descend, so that the cover body 102 is separated from the main body 101; when it is necessary to close the cover body 102, the first lifting mechanism 50 drives the cover body 102 to rise, so that the cover body 102 is closed with the main body 101.

[0062] For example, the glass forming device further comprises a second support frame 42 and a third support frame 43. The third support frame 43 is slidingly fitted with the second support frame 42 along the vertical direction, the first lifting mechanism 50 is installed on the second support frame 42, the cover body 102 is installed on the third support frame 43, and the first lifting mechanism 50 is connected with the third support frame 43. In this way, when the first lifting mechanism 50 drives the third support frame 43 to perform the lifting action, the third support frame 43 slides along the second support frame 42 and drives the furnace cover to perform the lifting action, and the lifting stability of the cover body 102 is higher.

[0063] For example, the second support frame 42 is provided with a sliding rail 421, and the third support frame 43 is provided with a sliding block slidingly fitted with the sliding rail 421. The sliding block slides along the sliding rail 421 to guide the third support frame 43, thereby improving the lifting stability of the third support frame 43.

[0064] For example, the first support frame 41 is installed on the ground. The ground is provided with a first pit, and the second support frame 42 and the second lifting mechanism 14 are arranged in the first pit. Optionally, the distance between the inner wall of the first pit and the periphery of the cover body 102 is less than 50 mm, and the first pit cannot interfere with the lifting action of the cover body 102.

[0065] On the basis of the foregoing embodiments, the left and right opposite sides of the first pit are provided with entrances, and maintenance personnel can enter the first pit through the entrances, thereby facilitating the maintenance operation of the first lifting mechanism 50, the cover body 102, and the second heating mechanism 12.

[0066] For example, the first support frame 41 is installed on the ground. The ground is provided with a first pit, and the second support frame 42 and the second lifting mechanism 14 are arranged in the first pit. Optionally, the distance between the inner wall of the first pit and the periphery of the cover body 102 is less than 50 mm, and the first pit cannot interfere with the lifting action of the cover body 102. Figure 8 Figure 9 For example, the first support frame 41 is installed on the ground. The ground is provided with a first pit, and the second support frame 42 and the second lifting mechanism 14 are arranged in the first pit. Optionally, the distance between the inner wall of the first pit and the periphery of the cover body 102 is less than 50 mm, and the first pit cannot interfere with the lifting action of the cover body 102.

[0067] For example, the first support frame 41 is installed on the ground. The ground is provided with a first pit, and the second support frame 42 and the second lifting mechanism 14 are arranged in the first pit. Optionally, the distance between the inner wall of the first pit and the periphery of the cover body 102 is less than 50 mm, and the first pit cannot interfere with the lifting action of the cover body 102. Figures 1 to 3 For example, the furnace body 10 further comprises a first heating mechanism 11 and a second heating mechanism 12. The first heating mechanism 11 is arranged in the main body 101, and the second heating mechanism 12 is connected to the cover body 102. In this way, during the heating process of the to-be-processed glass 100 between the first heating mechanism 11 and the second heating mechanism 12, the first heating mechanism 11 and the second heating mechanism 12 heat the to-be-processed glass 100 from the upper and lower sides, respectively, so that the upper side and the lower side and the periphery of the to-be-processed glass 100 are synchronously heated, which can prevent the to-be-processed glass 100 from being heated on one side only, thereby preventing the temperature distribution of the upper and lower surfaces or the periphery from being uneven, and further avoiding the problems of cracking, optical defects, and uneven transition of the forming surface of the to-be-processed glass 100 in the forming process.​

[0068] As shown in Figures 4 to 6 For example, the side of the cover 102 facing the main body 101 is provided with a mounting groove 1021 recessed away from the main body 101, and the second heating mechanism 12 is arranged in the mounting groove 1021. The furnace body 10 further comprises a protective screen 60 connected with the cover 102 and arranged at the opening of the mounting groove 1021, and the protective screen 60 is located at the side of the second heating mechanism 12 facing the main body 101.

[0069] Optionally, the protective screen 60 includes but is not limited to a metal screen, such as an iron screen, a copper screen, etc. The grid of the metal screen includes but is not limited to a polygon or a circle, etc.

[0070] For example, the protective screen 60 is flush with the opening edge of the mounting groove 1021.

[0071] As shown in Figure 5 and Figure 6 For example, the distance between the protective screen 60 and the second heating mechanism 12 in the vertical direction is, for example, 40mm-60mm. In this way, the short circuit defect caused by the contact between the protective screen 60 and the second heating mechanism 12 can be avoided.

[0072] For example, the cover 102 includes but is not limited to a thermal insulation material, and is specifically made of, for example, cotton blocks, so as to have a better thermal insulation effect. The thickness of the bottom wall of the cover 102 includes but is not limited to 200mm-400mm.

[0073] For example, the main body 101 includes but is not limited to being made of a thermal insulation material, such as thermal insulation cotton blocks. Optionally, the thermal insulation thickness of the side wall of the main body 101 is 200mm-400mm, and the thermal insulation thickness of the top wall of the main body 101 is 200mm-450mm. In this way, the thermal insulation effect of the furnace body 10 can be improved, and the measurable temperature of the outer furnace wall in summer cannot exceed 50℃, and the measurable temperature of the outer furnace wall in winter cannot exceed 35℃.

[0074] The forming mold 70 plays a role in supporting the outer peripheral edge of the glass to be processed 100, and the glass to be processed 100 gradually undergoes thermal bending forming after being heated. During the heating process, the central part of the glass to be processed 100 will easily be excessively concave due to gravity and cause a crack defect if it is not supported by the forming mold 70.

[0075] As shown in Figures 5 to 7For example, the cover 102 is provided with a support rod 1023 and an adjusting mechanism (not shown in the figure). The support rod 1023 is used to support the middle part of the glass 100 to be processed. The adjusting mechanism is connected with the support rod 1023. The adjusting mechanism can adjust the height position of the support rod 1023 in a lifting manner. The adjusting mechanism is electrically connected with the controller. In this way, the adjusting mechanism can adaptively adjust the height position of the support rod 1023 according to different heating stages of the glass 100 to be processed. The top end of the support rod 1023 supports the middle part of the glass 100 to be processed, so as to ensure the stability of the glass 100 to be processed in the heating process and prevent the middle part of the glass 100 to be processed from excessively sagging, thereby avoiding the generation of crack defects in the heating process.

[0076] The number of the support rods 1023 includes but is not limited to one or more. For example, the number of the support rods 1023 is two, three or more, which can be flexibly adjusted and set according to actual needs. In the embodiment, the number of the support rods 1023 is two, and the number of the adjusting mechanisms is two. Each adjusting mechanism is correspondingly arranged with each support rod 1023.

[0077] For example, the height position of the support rod 1023 can be automatically controlled according to the temperature setting and the lifting distance in the forming process, or manually adjusted according to actual needs.

[0078] For example, the number of the support rods 1023 is multiple, and the number of the adjusting mechanisms is multiple. Each adjusting mechanism is correspondingly arranged with each support rod 1023.

[0079] For example, the adjusting mechanism can also adjust the position of the support rod 1023 in the front-rear direction of the furnace body 10. By adjusting the position of the support rod 1023 in the front-rear direction of the furnace body 10, the support position of the support rod 1023 in the front-rear direction of the glass 100 to be processed can be adjusted.

[0080] For example, the adjusting mechanism includes a servo motor. The servo motor is used to control the lifting action of the support rod 1023. The servo motor is set to automatically lift the support rod 1023 in 5-20 stages. The two support rods 1023 in front and back can be controlled separately. According to the product structure, the support position can be automatically controlled and adjusted, so as to realize the intelligentization of the product bending forming process and improve the product quality.

[0081] In order to avoid the support rod 1023, the protective net 60 is provided with two protective nets 60. The two protective nets 60 form an avoiding part 61. The support rod 1023 is arranged at the avoiding part 61 and can move along the avoiding part 61 under the driving of the adjusting mechanism. In addition, similarly, each third heating piece 121 of the second heating mechanism 12 is distributed on the opposite sides of the support rod 1023. Specifically, the two protective nets 60 are symmetrically arranged about the avoiding part 61. Each third heating piece 121 of the second heating mechanism 12 is symmetrically arranged about the avoiding part 61.

[0082] For example, the glass forming apparatus also includes a controller, and the first heating mechanism 11 includes a plurality of first heating elements 111; the controller is electrically connected to the first heating mechanism 11 and is used to control the adjustment of the working power of each of the first heating elements 111.

[0083] See Figures 1 to 3 For example, the first heating mechanism 11 includes a plurality of first heating elements 111. A controller is electrically connected to the first heating mechanism 11 and is used to control the adjustment of the working power of each first heating element 111. Thus, since the first heating mechanism 11 includes a plurality of first heating elements 111, the controller can control and adjust the working power of each first heating element 111 according to the profile requirements of the glass 100 to be processed, thereby further improving the temperature uniformity of the glass 100 to be processed and meeting the forming requirements of more types of glass.

[0084] For example, the first heating element 111 may include, but is not limited to, a heating wire, a heating plate, or a heating tube. In this embodiment, the first heating element 111 is specifically described as a heating wire, but it is not limited thereto.

[0085] For example, the longitudinal direction of the first heating element 111 is parallel to the side surface of the glass 100 to be processed. Optionally, the first heating element 111 can be arranged along the transverse direction of the main body 101, along the longitudinal direction of the main body 101, or in other ways. The transverse direction of the main body 101 is also the left-right direction, such as... Figure 1 or Figure 3 The direction indicated by the Y-axis; the longitudinal direction of the main body 101, which is also the front-to-back direction, as shown in the figure. Figure 1 or Figure 3 The direction indicated by the X-axis in the diagram.

[0086] Multiple first heating elements 111 are located above the glass 100 to be processed and are respectively opposite to multiple different positions of the glass 100 to be processed. In this way, when each first heating element 111 is working, it can heat different positions of the glass 100 to be processed, thereby improving the uniformity of heating.

[0087] For example, the heating area of ​​the first heating mechanism 11 completely covers the glass 100 to be processed by its orthographic projection along the vertical direction. This facilitates uniform heating of different locations on the glass 100 to be processed.

[0088] Optionally, the ratio of the area of the glass 100 to be processed to the area of the heating region of the first heating mechanism 11 is K, and 0.1≤K≤0.9. Specifically, the area of the glass 100 to be processed refers to the surface area of the glass in a flat state, or the projected area of the glass on a horizontal plane in a curved state, and K=0.1, 0.3, 0.5, 0.7, or 0.9, etc. In this way, the area of the heating region of the first heating mechanism 11 is larger than the area of the glass 100 to be processed, the heating region has a larger area, and the internal space of the chamber is correspondingly larger, which can accommodate a larger area of special glass and be used for uniformly heating the special glass.

[0089] For example, the plurality of first heating members 111 includes a plurality of movable members that can adjust the position. The movable member refers to the first heating member 111 that can adjust the position, and the position is adjustable relative to the glass 100 to be processed. The glass forming device further includes a plurality of second lifting mechanisms 14, each second lifting mechanism 14 is connected to a corresponding movable member, and the second lifting mechanism 14 is used to adjust the height position of the movable member. The second lifting mechanism 14 is electrically connected to the controller, and the controller is further used to control the lifting action of the second lifting mechanism 14. In this way, the controller can not only adjust the working power of each first heating member 111, but also control the operation of each second lifting mechanism 14 to adjust the height position of the corresponding movable member according to the profile requirements of the glass product, so that the distance between the movable member and the glass 100 to be processed meets the requirements, thereby improving the temperature uniformity of the glass 100 to be processed, improving the profile quality of the glass product, and meeting the forming requirements of more types of glass.

[0090] Optionally, the second lifting mechanism 14 includes, but is not limited to, a motor lead screw, a pneumatic cylinder, or a hydraulic cylinder, etc.

[0091] For example, the plurality of first heating members 111 further includes a plurality of fixed members 1113 that cannot adjust the position. The fixed member 1113 refers to the first heating member 111 that cannot adjust the position, and the position is fixed relative to the main body 101 and the glass 100 to be processed. The plurality of fixed members 1113 are specifically fixed to the middle part of the main body 101. In this way, during the heating process of the glass 100 to be processed, the plurality of fixed members 1113 are arranged opposite to the middle part of the glass 100 to be processed, and are used to heat and process the middle part of the glass 100 to be processed. Since the middle part of the glass 100 to be processed is relatively flat, the plurality of fixed members 1113 generally do not need to adjust the height position to ensure the uniformity of the glass 100 to be processed.

[0092] Since the opposite sides of the glass 100 to be processed are curved, the height position of the first heating member 111 opposite to the position of the opposite sides of the glass 100 to be processed can be adjusted according to the profile requirement, so as to improve the profile heating uniformity of the glass 100 to be processed.

[0093] Specifically, when the temperature of a certain position of the glass 100 to be processed is low, the controller controls the first heating member 111 opposite to the position to adjust the height position, for example, to lower the height, so as to reduce the distance between the first heating member 111 and the glass 100 to be processed, so as to increase the temperature of the local part of the glass 100 to be processed.

[0094] On the basis of the foregoing embodiment, the glass forming device further comprises a temperature sensor. The temperature sensor is, for example, an infrared imager. The temperature sensor can sense the temperature distribution of the profile of the glass 100 to be processed. The controller controls the second lifting mechanism 14 to work and / or controls the first heating member 111 to adjust the working power according to the temperature distribution of the profile sensed by the temperature sensor, so as to make the temperature distribution of different positions of the profile uniform.

[0095] Since the temperature change range of the position with large profile curvature is larger than that of the position with small profile curvature during the heating of the glass 100 to be processed, in some optional schemes of the embodiment, the second lifting mechanism 14 can also be controlled to work and / or the first heating member 111 can also be controlled to adjust the working power according to the profile curvature. Specifically, when the profile curvature is large, the height position of the first heating member 111 is lowered by the second lifting mechanism 14, and / or the working power of the first heating member 111 is increased; on the contrary, when the profile curvature is small, the height position of the first heating member 111 is raised by the second lifting mechanism 14, and / or the working power of the first heating member 111 is reduced.

[0096] For example, the plurality of movable members comprises a plurality of first movable members 1111 and a plurality of second movable members 1112. The plurality of first movable members 1111 is located at one side of the plurality of fixed members 1113, and is used for heating one side of the glass 100 to be processed; the plurality of second movable members 1112 is located at the other side of the plurality of fixed members 1113, and is used for heating the other side of the glass 100 to be processed. Optionally, the plurality of first movable members 1111 in the embodiment is distributed, for example, at the left side of the main body 101, and the plurality of second movable members 1112 is distributed, for example, at the right side of the main body 101.

[0097] Optionally, the number of the first movable members 1111 and the number of the second movable members 1112 are consistent or different from each other, and can be flexibly adjusted and set according to actual requirements, which is not limited herein.

[0098] In actual work, the plurality of first movable members 1111 can be adjusted in position as a whole or independently, and the plurality of second movable members 1112 can be adjusted in position as a whole or independently, which is not specifically limited and can be adjusted and set according to actual needs.

[0099] For example, the number of first heating members 111 includes but is not limited to 300-1200, specifically for example 300, 500, 700, 900 or 1200, etc., which can be flexibly adjusted and set according to actual needs.

[0100] Optionally, the number of movable members includes but is not limited to 200-700, specifically for example 200, 300, 350, 400, 450, 500, 550, 600 or 700. In this way, the number of movable members is large, that is, the number of first heating members 111 that can be adjusted in position is large, so that the length of a single movable member can be designed to be shorter, so that the heat radiation area is reduced, so that the temperature of different areas can be accurately adjusted according to the profile requirements of the glass 100 to be processed, so that the heating uniformity of the glass 100 to be processed is improved, and the glass product quality is higher.

[0101] Optionally, the number of fixed members 1113 includes but is not limited to 100-600, specifically for example 100, 300, 400, 500 or 600.

[0102] For example, the plurality of first heating members 111 are arranged in multiple rows. The number of rows of first heating members 111 is 5-9, specifically for example 5, 6, 7, 8 or 9, etc. Optionally, the number of first heating members 111 in each row is 50-80, specifically for example 50, 60, 70, 80 or 90.

[0103] On the basis of the foregoing embodiments, the plurality of movable members are arranged in multiple rows. The number of rows of movable members is 5-9, and the number of movable members in each row is 40-60. Specifically, the movable members are arranged along the transverse direction Y of the main body 101. Similarly, the plurality of fixed members 1113 are arranged in multiple rows; the number of rows of fixed members 1113 is 5-9, and the number of fixed members 1113 in each row is 10-20.

[0104] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 3For example, the first heating mechanism 11 further comprises a plurality of second heating members 112. The controller is further configured to control the second heating members 112 to adjust the working power. The extending direction of the first heating member 111 is arranged at an angle with the extending direction of the second heating member 112. In this way, the first heating member 111 and the second heating member 112 can heat the glass 100 to be processed, and the working power of the first heating member 111 and the second heating member 112 can be adjusted under the control of the controller, and the extending direction of the first heating member 111 is arranged at an angle with the extending direction of the second heating member 112, so as to improve the heating uniformity of the glass 100 to be processed.

[0105] Similarly, the second heating member 112 includes but is not limited to a furnace wire, a heating sheet, a heating tube, etc. In the embodiment, the second heating member 112 is taken as a furnace wire for example, but is not limited thereto.

[0106] For example, the first heating member 111 is arranged along the longitudinal direction X of the main body 101, and the second heating member 112 is arranged along the transverse direction Y of the main body 101.

[0107] For example, the second heating member 112 is fixedly arranged at the middle part of the main body 101, and the second heating member 112 and the first heating member 111 are arranged at intervals along the vertical direction. Specifically, the second heating member 112 is arranged below the first heating member 111. In this way, on the one hand, the second heating member 112 cannot adjust the height position, and the distance between the second heating member 112 and the glass 100 to be processed remains unchanged, and the second heating member 112 is aligned with the middle part of the glass 100 to be processed, and does not need to adjust the height position along the vertical direction, and does not interfere with the first movable member 1111 and the second movable member 1112 which can adjust the height position. On the other hand, the second heating member 112 and the fixed member 1113 are both arranged at the middle part of the main body 101, and the extending directions are arranged at an angle, which can improve the heating uniformity of the glass 100 to be processed. In addition, the second heating member 112 and the first heating member 111 are arranged at intervals along the vertical direction, so as to avoid short circuit defects caused by mutual contact.

[0108] Optionally, the interval between the second heating member 112 and the first heating member 111 along the vertical direction includes but is not limited to 30mm-50mm, and specifically for example, 30mm, 40mm or 50mm, etc.

[0109] Optionally, the number of the second heating member 112 includes but is not limited to 16-30. In addition, the plurality of second heating members 112 are arranged in sequence along the longitudinal direction of the main body 101.

[0110] For example, the distribution of each first heating element 111 and each second heating element 112 can be symmetric or asymmetric, without limitation. The working power of each first heating element 111 and each second heating element 112 can be symmetrically or asymmetrically controlled, and the maximum temperature can reach about 850°C.

[0111] For example, the first heating element 111 is located above the second heating element 112, and the first heating element 111 is closer to the top wall of the main body 101, for example, the distance between the first heating element 111 and the top wall of the main body 101 is 40-60 mm.

[0112] In the present application, the number of first heating elements 111 and second heating elements 112 is large, the distribution is more refined, and the parameter setting is more targeted, which can more effectively make the glass forming process smooth.

[0113] Please refer to Figures 4 to 6 For example, the second heating mechanism 12 includes a plurality of third heating elements 121. The controller is electrically connected with the second heating mechanism 12, and the controller is used to control each third heating element 121 to adjust the working power.

[0114] For example, the third heating element 121 includes but is not limited to a furnace wire, a heating sheet, or a heating pipe, etc. In the present embodiment, the third heating element 121 is taken as a furnace wire as an example, but it is not limited thereto.

[0115] For example, the longitudinal direction of the third heating element 121 is parallel to the side of the glass to be processed 100. Alternatively, the third heating element 121 can be arranged in the transverse direction of the main body 101, or in the longitudinal direction of the main body 101, or in other directions.

[0116] The plurality of third heating elements 121 are located below the glass to be processed 100 and respectively opposite to a plurality of different positions of the glass to be processed 100. In this way, each third heating element 121 can heat each different position of the lower side of the glass to be processed 100 when working, thereby improving the heating uniformity.

[0117] For example, the heating area of the third heating mechanism completely covers the glass to be processed 100 in the vertical direction. In this way, it is beneficial to realize uniform heating of each different position of the glass to be processed 100.

[0118] For example, the plurality of third heating elements 121 are arranged in multiple rows. Specifically, the number of rows of third heating elements 121 is 3-7, for example, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 or other number of rows. The number of each row of third heating elements 121 is 50-80, for example, 50, 60, 70, 80 or other number, without limitation.

[0119] In the present application, the first heating mechanism 11 and the second heating mechanism 12 are electrically connected with the controller, the first heating element 111, the second heating element 112 and the third heating element 121 are independently adjusted in working power under the control of the controller, and the number of the first heating element 111, the second heating element 112 and the third heating element 121 is large. In this way, intelligent temperature rising control can be adopted, the temperature rising process can be set according to 10-30 stages of temperature holding, the heating uniformity of the multi-layer special glass is improved, and the problems of cracking and optical bright spot in the heating process and difficulty in controlling the spherical surface of the multi-layer combined special glass due to large temperature difference between upper and lower layers are solved.

[0120] Please refer to Figure 4 , for example, the glass forming device further comprises a fan 20. The fan 20 is arranged on the furnace body 10, and the fan 20 is used for blowing cold air outside the furnace body 10 into the furnace body 10. In this way, when the heat bending treatment step of the to-be-processed glass 100 is finished, the furnace body 10 is opened, the first heating mechanism 11 and the second heating mechanism 12 stop heating, and the cold air is blown into the furnace body 10 by the fan 20. The cold air can reduce the temperature of the to-be-processed glass 100, and realize the cooling and solidification forming of the to-be-processed glass 100.

[0121] Optionally, the fan 20 includes but is not limited to a centrifugal fan. Moreover, the fan 20 is also, for example, a variable frequency fan.

[0122] Please refer to Figure 4 , for example, the furnace body 10 is provided with four side surfaces, and the fan 20 is arranged on each side surface. In this way, when the fans 20 on each side surface work synchronously, each fan 20 can blow the cold air outside the furnace body 10 into the furnace body 10, and the cold air is present at each position in the furnace body 10, so that each position of the to-be-processed glass 100 is cooled, thereby improving the cooling and solidification forming effect of the to-be-processed glass 100.

[0123] Optionally, the number of the fan 20 includes but is not limited to one, two, three or any other number, which can be flexibly adjusted and set according to actual needs. The working power of the fan 20 is adjustable, and can be adjusted according to 0-100%.

[0124] In the present application, the total number of the fan 20 is, for example, 8-12. In this way, the number of the fan 20 is large, and the to-be-processed glass 100 can be quickly annealed and formed.

[0125] In one embodiment, the fan 20 is a centrifugal fan. At least two fans 20 are arranged on each side of the furnace 10, and each fan 20 is provided with a manually controlled and adjustable valve for adjusting the blowing direction of the fan 20. The valve is arranged on the air inlet pipe of the fan 20. The valve can be a manually controlled valve or an electrically controlled valve. In this way, the blowing direction of the fan 20 can be adjusted through the valve, so that the blowing direction of the fan 20 meets the requirements, and the cooling annealing effect of the glass 100 to be processed is improved.

[0126] Of course, as an optional solution, the centrifugal fan 20 is not limited to the above-mentioned embodiment arranged on each side of the furnace 10, but can also be arranged on opposite sides of the furnace 10, and the other two sides of the furnace 10 do not need to be arranged with fans 20. The specific number and arrangement of the fans 20 can be flexibly adjusted and arranged according to actual needs, which is not limited here.

[0127] For example, the number of fans 20 on each side is at least two, and each fan 20 is arranged along the circumferential direction of the furnace 10, and the air outlet sides of the two adjacent fans 20 are arranged to face away from each other. In this way, the air outlet directions of the two adjacent fans 20 face away from each other, the blowing area is wide, and the temperature of each part of the glass 100 to be processed can be effectively reduced, so that each part of the glass is cooled synchronously, thereby improving the profile quality of the glass product.

[0128] For example, the fan 20 is selected to have a swing head function, which can further improve the blowing area and make more parts of the glass 100 to be processed sufficiently and uniformly cooled.

[0129] Please refer to Figure 4 For example, the furnace 10 is provided with an observation window 13, through which the forming condition of the glass 100 to be processed inside the furnace 10 can be observed. Each side of the furnace 10 can be provided with an observation window 13 according to actual needs. The observation window 13 is arranged in a horn shape, for example, and the outer opening diameter of the observation window 13 is larger than the inner opening diameter. The number of observation windows 13 is not limited and can be one, three, five or more.

[0130] For example, the glass forming device further comprises a lighting mechanism 30 arranged outside the furnace 10, which comprises but is not limited to a lighting lamp. The lighting mechanism 30 is located beside the observation window 13. The light of the lighting mechanism 30 can enter the furnace 10 through the observation window 13, so that the forming condition of the glass 100 to be processed in the furnace 10 can be observed.

[0131] In order to prevent the light from being too bright, for example, a movable baffle is arranged on the left and right sides of the observation window 13 outside the furnace 10, which is used to shield the light.

[0132] Please refer to Figure 4 For example, the main body 101 is formed with the main body 101, and the observation window 13 is specifically provided on the main body 101 and communicates with the main body 101. The lighting mechanism 30 is specifically connected and fixed with the main body 101.

[0133] For example, the controller is provided with an annealing starting time point. When the annealing starting time point is reached, the controller controls the cover body 102 to open, and performs the annealing cooling operation, so that the annealing opportunity can be accurately controlled, and the cover body 102 is prevented from being opened too early, so that the edge stress of the glass product can be better controlled.

[0134] For example, the moving carrier 80 is provided with a first auxiliary heating joint 85, and the main body 101 is provided with a second auxiliary heating joint corresponding in position to the first auxiliary heating joint 85. When the cover body 102 drives the moving carrier 80 to move upward to close the main body 101, the first auxiliary heating joint 85 is connected with the second auxiliary heating joint to complete power supply, and the auxiliary heating device in the forming specifically performs heating work, better realizing local small curvature spherical forming, and the profile forming quality of the glass product meets the requirements.

[0135] Please refer to Figures 11 to 16 For example, the glass forming device further comprises a third lifting mechanism 92. The third lifting mechanism 92 is detachably connected with a first lifting piece 93 for lifting the glass to be processed 100 or a second lifting piece 94 for lifting the forming mold 70, and the third lifting mechanism 92 can drive the first lifting piece 93 or the second lifting piece 94 to move up and down.

[0136] The first lifting piece 93 includes but is not limited to a tray, which can stably support the glass to be processed 100 and drive the glass to be processed 100 to move up and down with the lifting action of the third lifting mechanism 92.

[0137] The first lifting piece 93 is for example two, and the two first lifting pieces 93 are arranged in parallel and spaced apart. When the third lifting mechanism 92 acts, it can synchronously drive the two first lifting pieces 93 to move up and down, realizing the lifting action of the glass to be processed 100.

[0138] In order to prevent damage to the glass, the top surface of the tray is fixedly provided with a glass fiber cloth or a PBO material.

[0139] The third lifting mechanism 92 is electrically connected with the controller. Under the control of the controller, the lifting stroke of the third lifting mechanism 92 can be flexibly adjusted according to actual needs.

[0140] The second lifting piece 94 includes but is not limited to a pipe, which can stably support the glass to be processed 100 and drive the forming mold 70 to move up and down with the lifting action of the third lifting mechanism 92.

[0141] The second lifting pieces 94 are for example two, and the two second lifting pieces 94 are arranged in parallel and at intervals. When the third lifting mechanism 92 is in action, the two second lifting pieces 94 can be synchronously driven to perform lifting action, so as to realize the lifting action of the glass 100 to be processed.

[0142] When the glass 100 to be processed needs to be replaced, the third lifting mechanism 92 is connected with the first lifting piece 93; when the forming mold 70 needs to be replaced, the third lifting mechanism 92 is connected with the second lifting piece 94. In this way, after the glass 100 to be processed is lifted upward by the first lifting piece 93, the glass 100 to be processed has a spacing space with the forming mold 70 below, which facilitates the transfer of the lifted glass 100 to be processed by the up-and-down piece device, so as to facilitate the loading, unloading, replacement and the like, and reduce the labor intensity. Similarly, the forming mold 70 is lifted upward by the second lifting piece 94, and the forming mold 70 has a spacing space with the moving carrier 80 below, so as to facilitate the loading, unloading, replacement and the like of the forming mold 70, and reduce the labor intensity without manual carrying.

[0143] For example, the ground is provided with a second pit, and the third lifting mechanism 92 is arranged in the second pit. The glass forming device further comprises a protective plate 95 for sealing the opening of the second pit. The third lifting mechanism 92 comprises a lifting rod 921, the lifting rod 921 penetrates through the protective plate 95, and the top end of the lifting rod 921 is connected with a mounting piece 96. The mounting piece 96 can be used for mounting the first lifting piece 93 or the second lifting piece 94.
