Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of glass processing equipment, in particular to a feeding mechanism of a glass tempering furnace. Background Art

[0002] Glass tempering furnace is an industrial heating equipment. Glass tempering furnace uses physical or chemical methods to form a compressive stress layer on the surface of glass and a tensile stress layer inside. When the glass is subjected to external force, the compressive stress layer can offset part of the tensile stress to prevent the glass from breaking, thereby achieving the purpose of improving the strength of the glass. Not only that, the micro cracks on the surface of the glass become more subtle under this compressive stress, which also improves the strength of the glass to a certain extent.

[0003] In the process of tempering glass in a glass tempering furnace, the operator is usually required to place the glass raw materials uniformly and orderly on the upper end of the feeding device, and then the glass raw materials are fed into the interior of the glass tempering furnace for processing through an external feeding device;

[0004] In the existing glass tempering furnace, during the tempering process of glass, although the operator can place the glass raw materials in sequence on the upper end of the feeding device, this feeding method requires the operator to place the glass raw materials continuously, which consumes a lot of manpower. In addition, when the manually placed glass raw materials are unevenly distributed on the feeding equipment, it will also affect the subsequent tempering processing work. The feeding mechanism of some glass tempering furnaces uses a robot instead of the manual feeding method. Although it reduces the workload of the personnel, the internal structure of the robot is relatively complex, the subsequent maintenance and overhaul is relatively cumbersome, and the cost is relatively high. For this reason, we propose a feeding mechanism for a glass tempering furnace. Utility Model Content
