Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of glass annealing, in particular to glass bottle pushing equipment. Background Art

[0002] In the modern glass manufacturing industry, the production of glass products is a complex and technology-intensive process involving multiple key steps, including batching, melting, forming and annealing. Among them, annealing is a necessary process to ensure the intrinsic quality and long-term stability of glass products, and its importance is self-evident. The purpose of annealing is to eliminate or significantly reduce the thermal stress caused by uneven temperature inside the glass, and to avoid cracking caused by stress concentration during subsequent use or processing. Traditionally, glass annealing mostly uses mesh-belt continuous annealing kilns. This technology is widely used in the industry due to its advantages such as continuous operation and uniform temperature control. The mesh-belt continuous annealing kiln slowly cools the glass products in a constant temperature environment through the drive of the mesh belt, effectively balancing the stress distribution inside the product.

[0003] However, with the improvement of automation level, glass products are arranged linearly on the conveyor belt after forming, and enter the annealing kiln in a linear arrangement along the conveyor belt and are arranged linearly on the mesh belt. The products arranged linearly on the conveyor belt cannot be arranged closely, resulting in a large amount of ineffectively utilized space inside the annealing kiln, which not only wastes precious annealing resources such as heat energy and space, but also indirectly affects production efficiency and cost-effectiveness. Utility Model Content

[0004] The utility model aims to provide glass bottle pushing equipment to change the arrangement of glass products when they enter an annealing furnace and improve the utilization rate of the annealing furnace space.

[0005] To achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the utility model adopts the following technical scheme: glass bottle pushing equipment includes a frame and a pushing mechanism, the pushing mechanism includes a lifting reciprocating unit and a pushing unit, the lifting reciprocating unit includes a reciprocating platform slidably arranged on the frame, a lifting guide rail is fixedly arranged on the reciprocating platform, a lifting platform is slidably arranged on the lifting guide rail, and the pushing unit includes a pushing plate, which is fixedly arranged on the lifting platform and is perpendicular to the movement direction of the annealing kiln mesh belt.

[0006] The beneficial effects of this solution are as follows: the linearly arranged glass bottles are pushed onto the mesh belt in sections by the pusher plate, so that more glass bottles can be transported into the annealing kiln on the mesh belt per unit time, thereby improving the utilization rate of the internal space of the annealing kiln and the production efficiency, and reducing the production cost; at the same time, the pusher plate is fixed on the lifting platform, and when the pusher plate returns after completing the pushing work, the pusher plate can be raised by the lifting platform to avoid interference with the transportation of glass bottles on the conveyor belt when the pusher plate returns, thereby improving the smoothness of the forming and annealing operations.

[0007] Furthermore, it also includes a material-forming unit, which includes a feed plate and an isolation plate. The feed plate is fixedly arranged between the mesh belt and the isolation plate. A cantilever is arranged between the push plate and the lifting platform. The lowest height of the bottom of the cantilever is higher than the height of the bottle mouth. The isolation plate is provided with a slot. The cantilever passes through the slot and extends to above the feed plate. A material-forming part is arranged at the lower section of the push plate. The thickness of the material-forming part gradually decreases from top to bottom, and the thickness of the bottom end of the material-forming part is less than the radius difference between the mouth of the glass bottle and the bottle wall.

[0008] Furthermore, after the pushing plate pushes the glass bottle into the mesh belt, it pauses above the mesh belt and forms a first feeding channel with the feeding plate and the isolation plate.

[0009] Beneficial effect: when pushing materials, the lowest height of the cantilever bottom is higher than the height of the bottle mouth, and the glass bottles can still enter the feed plate. At the same time, the push plate is not retracted temporarily after pushing the materials, but is suspended above the mesh belt to form the first feeding channel with the feed plate and the isolation plate. At the same time, the push plate and the isolation plate are used to limit the two sides of the glass bottle to prevent the glass bottle from tipping over to both sides and reduce the damage of the glass bottle before annealing. When the number of glass bottles entering the feed plate is reached, it is first moved up through the lifting platform and then returned through the reciprocating platform to prevent the glass bottles entering the feed plate from interfering with the return of the push plate.

[0010] Furthermore, the material unit also includes a first limit plate and a second limit plate, which are fixed on the frame and perpendicular to the plane where the mesh belt is located. The spacing between the first limit plate and the second limit plate is less than or equal to the width of the mesh belt and greater than the length of the push plate.

[0011] Beneficial effect: The limiting of the first limiting plate and the second limiting plate can effectively prevent the glass bottles on both sides from tipping over when the glass bottles are pushed into the mesh belt.

[0012] Furthermore, it also includes a feed conveyor belt, and a guide plate is fixed on the second limiting plate. The guide plate is arranged above the conveyor belt and forms a second feed channel with the isolation plate.

[0013] Beneficial effect: Through the guide plate on the second limit plate, the position of the glass bottle can be adjusted before the glass bottle enters the feed plate, thereby improving the route of the glass bottle entering the feed plate and avoiding collision between the glass bottle and the limit plate, which affects the entry of subsequent glass bottles.

[0014] Furthermore, the lifting reciprocating unit also includes a reciprocating motor and a lifting motor. A reciprocating screw is fixed on the output shaft of the reciprocating motor, and the reciprocating screw is threadedly connected to the reciprocating platform. An installation part is provided on the lifting platform, and the lifting motor is fixed on the installation part. A lifting screw is fixed on the output shaft of the lifting motor, and the lifting screw is threadedly connected to the lifting platform.

[0015] Beneficial effects: The screw drive has high precision and can complete the preset work tasks. At the same time, the screw drive has low working noise, which can reduce the noise in the working environment and improve the production environment.

[0016] Furthermore, both the reciprocating motor and the lifting motor are servo motors.

[0017] Beneficial effect: The rotation direction and speed of the reciprocating motor and the lifting motor can be accurately controlled by the servo motor, thereby achieving accurate control of the reciprocating motor and the lifting motor. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0024] The following is further described in detail through specific implementation methods:

[0025] The figure marks in the drawings of the specification include: isolation plate 12, first limit plate 131, second limit plate 132, guide plate 1321, feed conveyor belt 14, feed plate 15, mesh belt 16, reciprocating platform 21, lifting guide rail 211, mounting part 212, reciprocating motor 22, reciprocating screw 221, reciprocating guide rail 222, lifting platform 31, cantilever 311, lifting motor 33, lifting screw 331, push plate 32, and material sorting part 321.

[0026] Example

[0027] The embodiment is basically as shown in the attached Figure 1-6 As shown, Figure 1-6 The glass bottle pushing device shown in the figure is used to send the formed glass bottles to the mesh belt 16 of the annealing furnace, including a frame, a pushing mechanism and a material unit. The pushing mechanism includes a lifting reciprocating unit and a pushing unit, such as Figure 1 , Figure 2As shown, the lifting reciprocating unit includes a reciprocating platform 21, a reciprocating guide rail 222, a lifting platform 31 and a screw transmission structure. The reciprocating guide rail 222 is fixed to the frame by bolts. The reciprocating platform 21 is slidably set on the reciprocating guide rail 222. A lifting guide rail 211 is welded on the reciprocating platform 21. A mounting portion 212 is welded on the top of the lifting guide rail 211. The lifting platform 31 is slidably set on the lifting guide rail 211.

[0028] like Figure 3 As shown, the screw transmission structure includes a reciprocating motor 22 and a lifting motor 33, both of which are servo motors. The output shafts of the reciprocating motor 22 and the lifting motor 33 are respectively connected with a reciprocating screw 221 and a lifting screw 331 through couplings. The reciprocating screw 221 is threadedly connected to the reciprocating platform 21, and the lifting screw 331 is threadedly connected to the lifting platform 31, so that the reciprocating platform 21 and the lifting platform 31 are driven to move by the rotation of the reciprocating motor 22 and the lifting motor 33.

[0029] The pusher unit includes a cantilever 311 and a pusher plate 32. The cantilever 311 is welded on the lifting platform 31. The pusher plate 32 is fixed to the cantilever 311 by bolts and is perpendicular to the movement direction of the annealing furnace mesh belt 16. Figure 4 As shown, when the lifting platform 31 is lowered to the lowest position, the bottom of the cantilever 311 is also higher than the bottle mouth height to avoid the cantilever 311 interfering with the feeding of the glass bottle when the push plate 32 pushes the material. The length of the push plate 32 is less than or equal to the width of the mesh belt 16. Figure 1 As shown, the lower section of the push plate 32 is provided with a material-forming portion 321, the thickness of which gradually decreases from top to bottom, and the thickness of the bottom end of the material-forming portion 321 is smaller than the radius difference between the mouth of the glass bottle and the bottle wall, so that the material-forming portion 321 can be inserted into the gap between the mouth of the glass bottle and the bottle body, thereby preventing the glass bottle from interfering with the downward movement process of the push plate 32.

[0030] like Figure 5 As shown, the material unit includes a feed conveyor belt 14, an isolation plate 12, a feed plate 15, a first limit plate 131 and a second limit plate 132. The feed conveyor belt 14 is rotatably arranged on the frame for connecting the glass bottle forming equipment and the annealing furnace. The isolation plate 12, the feed plate 15, the first limit plate 131 and the second limit plate 132 are fixed to the frame by welding, clamping or bolting. The isolation plate 12 is arranged between the feed end of the mesh belt 16 and the screw transmission structure. The isolation plate 12 is provided with a notch for the cantilever 311 to pass through. The feed plate 15 is arranged between the mesh belt 16 and the isolation plate 12. The first limit plate 131 and the second limit plate 132 are respectively arranged on the frame on both sides of the movement direction of the mesh belt 16. The second limit plate 132 is welded with a guide plate 1321, as shown in FIG. Figure 2 , Figure 5As shown, the guide plate 1321 extends above the conveyor belt and forms a second feeding channel with the isolation plate 12.

[0031] When in use, the coordination cycle of the reciprocating motor 22 and the lifting motor 33 is as follows: Figure 6 As shown, the lifting motor 33 reverses to drive the lifting platform 31 to move downward, and then drives the pushing plate 32 to move downward. The reciprocating motor 22 rotates forward to drive the reciprocating platform 21 and the lifting platform 31 close to the isolation plate 12. After pushing the material, the reciprocating motor 22 and the lifting motor 33 are both suspended for a period of time. At this time, on the one hand, the feed port of the annealing kiln can be blocked by the pushing plate 32 to reduce the loss of hot air in the annealing kiln. At the same time, the inner side of the pushing plate 32, the feed plate 15 and the isolation plate 12 together constitute the first feed channel.

[0032] When starting, first, the state of the screw drive structure is as follows: Figure 4 As shown, the reciprocating motor 22 and the lifting motor 33 are both in a pause period, the second feed channel is connected to the first feed channel, and the glass bottles formed by the forming equipment reach the second feed channel through the feed conveyor belt 14, and approach the isolation plate 12 under the action of the guide plate 1321 until they reach the feed plate 15, and slide along the first feed channel under the push of the glass bottles that arrive subsequently; then, the lifting motor 33 rotates forward, driving the lifting platform 31 to move upward, and then driving the pushing plate 32 to move up to the highest point, and the reciprocating motor 22 reverses, driving the pushing plate 32 to approach the isolation plate 12; then, the lifting motor 33 reverses, driving the pushing plate 32 to move downward, at this time, the glass bottles close to the isolation plate 12 can be pushed away by the pushing part to avoid the glass bottles from interfering with the downward movement of the isolation plate 12, and finally the reciprocating motor 22 rotates forward to push the glass bottles into the mesh belt 16, and enters the pause period again until the pause period ends.

[0033] The above is only an embodiment of the utility model, and the common knowledge such as the known specific technical solutions and / or characteristics in the solution is not described in detail here. It should be pointed out that the technical means for solving the problems in the above-mentioned embodiments of the utility model can be used in combination to solve multiple technical problems at the same time. For those skilled in the art, several deformations and improvements can be made without departing from the technical solution of the utility model, which should also be regarded as the protection scope of the utility model, and these will not affect the effect of the implementation of the utility model and the practicality of the patent.
