Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of glass pot processing technology, specifically to a glass pot polishing device. Background Technology
[0002] A teapot is a vessel with a handle and spout made of ceramic, metal, or glass, typically used to hold liquids such as tea and wine. It usually consists of four parts: a lid, body, base, and foot. Glass teapots, made primarily of glass, are crafted through techniques such as hot melting, relief carving, forging, crystallization, and wire embedding. As a practical and aesthetically pleasing everyday glass product, glass teapots are widely used in home drinking water, tea brewing, wine storage, and gift packaging. Their core advantages lie in their transparent and clean material, high chemical stability (resistant to acid and alkali corrosion), and the ability to directly observe the contents. Furthermore, borosilicate glass can withstand sudden temperature changes (such as heating with an electric ceramic stove), aligning with modern consumers' pursuit of a healthy and convenient lifestyle. In recent years, with the rise of the "aesthetics economy," glass teapot designs have become increasingly diverse, ranging from traditional round-bellied straight cylinders to irregular curved surfaces, carved decorations, and colored glaze spraying. Market demand continues to expand, and industry production capacity has increased year by year.
[0003] After the glass body solidifies, a glass rim grinding device is typically used in glass production to polish the rim, removing sharp crystals or rough pits. Existing glass rim grinding devices generally use a motor to drive a grinding belt or grinding disc. By holding the glass body, the rim is tightly pressed against the grinding belt or grinding disc, and the high-speed rotation of the grinding belt or grinding disc completes the polishing. However, in actual production, when the demand for glass rims is large, workers need to hold the rims for extended periods of time for polishing, which is physically demanding. The physical exertion is exacerbated when the rims are large, making it impossible for workers to work for long periods. Furthermore, it is difficult to quickly adjust general-purpose equipment to accommodate different sizes of glass rims. In addition, the glass material is brittle, and the clamps are prone to breakage at the clamping points. It is also inconvenient to adjust the polishing angle of the glass rim, reducing the polishing efficiency. Summary of the Invention
[0004] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this invention provides a glass teapot polishing device. This device solves the problems of conventional glass teapot production polishing equipment, which typically uses a motor to drive a polishing belt or disc. The teapot is held by hand, with the spout tightly pressed against the polishing belt or disc, and polished by the high-speed rotation of the belt or disc. However, in actual production, when the demand for glass teapots is high, workers need to hold the teapots for extended periods, resulting in significant physical exertion. This exertion is exacerbated by larger teapots, making prolonged work impossible. Furthermore, using general-purpose equipment makes it difficult to quickly adjust to accommodate different sizes of glass teapots. Additionally, the brittleness of glass makes the clamps prone to breakage, and adjusting the polishing angle is inconvenient, reducing polishing efficiency.
