Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of glass processing, and in particular to an overflow glass liquid collecting device of a glass furnace flue and a glass furnace flue. Background Art

[0002] During the production process of the glass kiln, the heavier particles in the flue gas in the flue of the glass kiln will fall to the bottom of the flue. To prevent the flue from being blocked by particles, it is necessary to regularly open the cleaning port at the bottom of the flue and clean the particles at the bottom of the flue through a cleaning device.

[0003] For example, the prior art proposes a TFT liquid crystal glass kiln flue condensate cleaning device (CN 209276354U), which includes a ash cleaning bucket and a limit connector installed at the bottom of the ash cleaning bucket. The bottom of the limit connector is connected to the ash collecting seal through a material guide. A mobile trolley is installed at the bottom of the ash collecting seal. A switch adjustment mechanism is installed horizontally in the middle of the ash cleaning bucket. The utility model is suitable for use in locations with high temperature and humidity and small working areas. It is easy to install and disassemble, easy to operate, and has a low manufacturing cost. It can continuously clean condensate. A new ash collecting box can be freely replaced during the cleaning process. It is more practical, not limited by the specific height position of the condensate, and can be adjusted according to actual conditions. It has a wider range of applications.

[0004] Although the above-mentioned prior art can remove particulate matter in the flue of a glass kiln, during the production process of a glass kiln, when the furnace pressure fluctuates, overflow glass liquid will be generated in the glass flue, and the overflow glass liquid will flow to the bottom of the flue under the action of gravity. Since the temperature in the flue is relatively low, the overflow glass liquid accumulates at the bottom of the flue and condenses into lumps. Due to the limitation of the size of the cleaning port, the overflow glass liquid condensed into lumps is difficult to clean out from the cleaning port, and manual removal is time-consuming and laborious. Based on this, how to prevent the overflow glass liquid in the flue of a glass kiln from accumulating at the bottom of the flue is a problem that technicians in this field need to consider.

[0029] The technologies, methods and equipment known to ordinary technicians in the relevant fields may not be discussed in detail, but in appropriate cases, the technologies, methods and equipment should be considered as part of the specification. As mentioned in the above background technology, during the production process of the glass kiln, when the kiln pressure fluctuates, overflow glass liquid will be generated in the glass flue, and the overflow glass liquid will flow to the bottom of the flue under the action of gravity. Since the temperature in the flue is relatively low, the overflow glass liquid accumulates at the bottom of the flue and condenses into lumps. Due to the limitation of the size of the cleaning port, the overflow glass liquid condensed into lumps is difficult to clean out from the cleaning port, and manual cleaning is time-consuming and laborious. Based on this, the inventors of the present application provide an overflow glass liquid collecting device for a glass kiln flue and a glass kiln flue in one or more embodiments. The overflow glass liquid collecting device for the glass kiln flue extends a collecting arm into the glass kiln flue, and the collecting arm rotates under the drive of a motor to make the overflow glass liquid in the glass kiln flue entangled around the collecting arm, thereby avoiding the overflow glass liquid falling to the bottom of the flue and condensing into lumps, which leads to time-consuming and labor-intensive cleaning, and solves one or more problems in the prior art.

[0030] In view of the above-mentioned technical problems, the utility model provides an overflow glass liquid collecting device for a glass furnace flue, such as Figure 1 As shown, it includes: a bracket 1; a motor 2, which is arranged on the bracket 1; a collecting arm 14, which can be extended into the glass furnace flue 16, and the rotating shaft 3 of the motor 2 is connected to the collecting arm 14 to drive the collecting arm 14 to rotate, so that the overflow glass liquid in the glass furnace flue 16 is wound around the collecting arm 14 to collect the overflow glass liquid.

[0031] Specifically, Figure 2As shown, a collecting port 17 is provided at the bottom end of the vertical portion of the glass furnace flue 16 (for example, on the side wall), and the collecting arm 14 is extended into the glass furnace flue 16 through the collecting port 17. The collecting arm 14 rotates under the drive of the motor 2. The overflowing glass liquid in the glass furnace flue 16 in the form of filaments flows downward under the action of gravity, and is wound around the collecting arm 14 through the rotation of the collecting arm 14. When the overflowing glass liquid on the collecting arm 14 is wound around for a certain amount, the collecting arm 14 is pulled out from the collecting port 17, and after the overflowing glass liquid wound around it is removed, the collecting arm 14 is inserted into the glass furnace flue 16 through the collecting port 17 to collect the overflowing glass liquid. Furthermore, the collecting arm 14 needs to be made of high temperature resistant materials, such as ceramics or metals. In addition, according to the viscosity of the overflow glass liquid in the glass furnace flue 16, the rotation speed of the rotating shaft 3 of the motor 2 is adjusted so that the overflow glass liquid can be fully wound around the collecting arm 14 during the rotation of the collecting arm 14.

[0032] Compared with the prior art, the overflow glass liquid collection device of a glass kiln flue of the present application extends a collecting arm 14 into a glass kiln flue 16, and the collecting arm 14 rotates under the drive of a motor 2, so that the overflow glass liquid in the glass kiln flue 16 is wound around the collecting arm 14, thereby avoiding the problem that the overflow glass liquid falls to the bottom of the flue and condenses into lumps, resulting in time-consuming and labor-intensive cleaning.

[0033] In some embodiments, Figure 1 As shown, the collecting arm 14 is connected to the rotating shaft 3 of the motor 2 via the connecting assembly 4. The connection between the collecting arm 14 and the rotating shaft 3 of the motor 2 is achieved via the connecting assembly 4.

[0034] In some embodiments, Figure 1 As shown, the connecting assembly 4 includes a rolling bearing 5, the outer ring 6 of the rolling bearing 5 is mounted on the bracket 1, and the rotating shaft 3 of the motor 2 extends from one end of the rolling bearing 5 into the rolling bearing 5 and is connected to the inner ring 7 of the rolling bearing 5 (for example, near Figure 1 One end of the collecting arm 14 is connected to the inner ring 7 at the other end of the rolling bearing 5 (for example, near the left end of the inner ring 7 shown in FIG. 1 ). Figure 1 The other end of the collecting arm 14 can extend into the glass furnace flue 16. Specifically, the rolling bearing 5 includes an outer ring 6, an inner ring 7 and a ball 15, and the ball 15 is arranged between the outer ring 6 and the inner ring 7. The outer ring 6 can be installed on the bracket 1 through a mounting seat. The rotating shaft 3 of the motor 2 drives the inner ring 7 to rotate, and the inner ring 7 drives the collecting arm 14 to rotate, so that the motor 2 drives the collecting arm 14 to rotate.

[0035] In some embodiments, Figure 1 Shown and Figure 3As shown, the collecting arm 14 includes a central portion 8 and a peripheral portion 9, the peripheral portion 9 includes a plurality of peripheral portions 9 surrounding the central portion 8, the central portion 8 is connected to the rotating shaft 3 of the motor 2, the peripheral portion 9 is connected to the inner ring 7 of the rolling bearing 5, and there is a gap 10 between the central portion 8 and the peripheral portion 9, and the size of the gap 10 is adjustable. Specifically, the central portion 8 rotates under the drive of the rotating shaft 3 of the motor 2, and the two peripheral portions 9 rotate under the drive of the inner ring 7 of the rolling bearing 5. When the overflow glass liquid on the collecting arm 14 is wound for a certain amount, the collecting arm 14 is pulled out from the collecting port, and when the overflow glass liquid cools down to form solid glass, the gap 10 can be increased to form an extrusion force on the glass wound on the collecting arm 14, so that the glass on the collecting arm 14 is squeezed or crushed, so that the glass is easily removed from the collecting arm 14.

[0036] In some embodiments, Figure 1 As shown, the connection assembly 4 further includes a spring 11, and the peripheral portion 9 is connected to the inner ring 7 of the rolling bearing 5 through the spring 11. The size of the gap 10 between the central portion 8 and the peripheral portion 9 is adjusted by the spring 11. Specifically, the spring 11 should have a certain elastic modulus.

[0037] In some embodiments, Figure 1 As shown, the connection assembly 4 also includes a cylinder 12 and a wedge head 13. The cylinder 12 is disposed in the rolling bearing 5 and connected to the inner ring 7 of the rolling bearing 5 and the rotating shaft 3 of the motor 2. The driving end of the cylinder 12 is connected to the bottom of the wedge head 13. The head of the wedge head 13 includes a groove that accommodates and fixes the central portion 8. The wedge head 13 can move relative to the peripheral portion 9 together with the central portion 8 under the drive of the cylinder 12, and the size of the gap 10 can be adjusted by extending the wedge head 13 into the gap 10. The outer surface of the groove that accommodates the central portion 8 can further contact with a portion of the peripheral portion 9 and adapt to its shape. For example, as Figure 1 As shown, the outer surface of the groove includes an inclined surface, and a part of the peripheral portion 9 in contact therewith also includes an inclined surface, and the two inclined surfaces can contact each other. Under the drive of the cylinder 12 and the action of the spring 11, the two inclined surfaces move relative to each other, thereby changing the size of the gap 10 and causing the peripheral portion 9 to expand outward. Specifically, after a certain amount of overflow glass liquid is wound around the collecting arm 14 and pulled out from the glass furnace flue 16, after the overflow glass liquid cools down to form solid glass, the cylinder 12 is started, and the wedge-shaped head 13, driven by the cylinder 12, extends into the gap 10 to increase the gap 10, causing the peripheral portion 9 to expand outward, and a force is applied to the glass wound around the collecting arm 14, thereby squeezing or crushing the glass on the collecting arm 14. Therefore, the size of the gap 10 is adjusted at least by the cylinder 12 and the wedge-shaped head 13, and it is further convenient to remove the glass on the collecting arm 14.

[0038] In some embodiments, a glass fiber ribbon (not shown) is wound around the collecting arm 14 to increase the roughness of the surface of the collecting arm 14. For example, the glass fiber ribbon can be wound around the outer surface of the outer peripheral portion 9. The glass fiber ribbon increases the roughness of the surface of the collecting arm 14, thereby preventing overflowing glass liquid from flying off during the rotation of the collecting arm 14. Furthermore, continuous spiral grooves or convex strips can be provided along the axial direction on the outer surface of the collecting arm 14 to increase the roughness of the collecting arm 14.

[0039] In some embodiments, a pulley (not shown) is provided at the bottom of the bracket 1 to enable the bracket 1 to move. The pulley facilitates the staff to move the bracket 1, so as to facilitate the collection arm 14 to be inserted from the collection port into the glass furnace flue 16, and to be pulled out of the glass furnace flue 16.

[0040] In some embodiments, a brake pad (not shown in the figure) is provided on the pulley. The brake pad is provided to avoid the problem that the bracket 1 slides by itself and affects the normal operation of the overflow glass liquid collection device.

[0041] In addition, the utility model provides a glass furnace flue, such as Figure 2 As shown, it includes a collecting port 17 and the overflow glass liquid collecting device of the glass furnace flue mentioned above, the collecting port 17 is opened on the bottom end of the vertical part of the glass furnace flue 16, and the collecting arm 14 extends into the glass furnace flue 16 or is pulled out from the glass furnace flue 16 through the collecting port 17.

[0042] In summary, compared with the prior art, the present invention provides an overflow glass liquid collection device for a glass furnace flue and a glass furnace flue. The overflow glass liquid collection device extends a collection arm 14 into a glass furnace flue 16, and the collection arm 14 rotates under the drive of a motor 2, so that the overflow glass liquid in the glass furnace flue 16 is wound around the collection arm 14, thereby avoiding the problem that the overflow glass liquid falls into the bottom of the flue and condenses into lumps, which causes time-consuming and laborious cleaning; the collection arm 14 and the motor are connected by a rolling bearing 5 to realize 2 is connected to the rotating shaft 3 of the glass kiln 2; the size of the gap 10 between the outer peripheral part 9 and the central part 8 is adjusted by the cylinder 12, the wedge head 13 and the spring 11, so that the solid glass is easily removed from the collecting arm 14; the roughness of the surface of the collecting arm 14 is increased by the glass fiber ribbon, so that the problem of overflowing glass liquid flying off the collecting arm 14 is avoided; the movement of the bracket 1 is achieved by the pulley, so that the collecting arm 14 is easily inserted from the collecting port into the glass kiln flue 16, and pulled out from the glass kiln flue 16.
