Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of glass bottle production, and particularly relates to a hot end conveying structure for glass bottles, which can ensure the safety of production. Background Art

[0002] The existing production process of glass bottles is generally as follows: After the glass is melted, it is adjusted to a certain temperature, and slowly falls from the material head of the feed channel to the bottle making machine, where it is cut by mechanical scissors. The glass material falls along the slide into the mold of the bottle making machine. There is an upward metal rod in the mold, which will push the glass material into a hollow shape with the mouth downward. The glass material is then turned over to face upward, and the glass material is sandwiched in the middle of the two-piece bottle making mold. At the same time, compressed air is blown into the bottle to form it. After the glass solidifies, the mold is opened, and then the glass bottles from multiple bottle making machines are sent to the conveyor belt, and then sent to the annealing kiln for annealing, and finally inspected to remove defective products. Since the temperature of the glass bottles coming out of the molding mold is very high, the yield of the glass bottles is easily affected when they are directly transferred to the conveyor belt, so they need to be cooled before being transferred to the conveyor belt.

[0003] For example, the patent with application number CN201821735905.3 discloses a transfer device that can transfer formed glass bottles to a conveyor belt. The device and the cooling table are arranged side by side on one side of the conveyor belt, and the cooling table is arranged close to the conveyor belt; the device includes a cylinder and a power system for driving the cylinder to rotate, and a bottle pushing mechanism is arranged on the piston rod of the cylinder. When the cylinder piston rod is extended, the cylinder rotates to push the glass bottles on the cooling table to the conveyor belt.

[0004] For example, the patent with application number CN201821738251.X discloses a material unloading device on a glass material forming mold in a glass bottle production line, comprising a fixed frame, which is fixedly arranged above the forming mold, and a fixed seat is arranged on the fixed frame, and a cylinder 1, a cylinder 2 and a stabilizing cylinder are vertically fixedly arranged on the fixed seat, and the piston rods below the cylinder 1 and the cylinder 2 are provided with clamping structures for clamping and transferring the glass bottle, and the piston rod below the stabilizing cylinder is provided with a positioning sleeve capable of stabilizing the glass bottle on the forming mold, and the opening at the bottom of the positioning sleeve is larger than the diameter of the glass bottle mouth by 2-4mm; a pushing cylinder is also arranged on the fixed frame, and the piston rod of the pushing cylinder is fixed on the fixed seat and pushes the fixed seat to move along the fixed frame; a cooling table and a conveyor belt are also arranged in front of the forming mold and below the fixed frame, and the direction of the conveyor belt is perpendicular to the fixed frame, and the distance between the cooling table and the forming mold, the distance between the conveyor belt and the cooling table, and the distance between the cylinder 1 and the cylinder 2 are the same.

[0005] In actual production, during the production process of bottle making machines, 1-2 operators are usually deployed to monitor multiple bottle making machines to avoid errors. The applicant found that when the glass bottles are on the cooling table, in addition to being cooled, the operators can also visually check whether the glass bottles are abnormal (such as irregular shapes, gaps, etc.), and the operators can use tools (such as clamps) to remove abnormal glass bottles. However, the process of removing glass bottles is relatively dangerous, such as the operator's (need to cross the conveyor belt to take the glass bottles, the operator needs to be close to the glass bottles on the conveyor belt) clothes contact with the glass bottles on the conveyor belt, such as the glass bottles fall from the tool to the operator's feet during the removal process, etc. Utility Model Content
