Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present disclosure relates to the production and manufacturing of glass substrates, and particularly to a throat structure of a furnace. Background Art
[0002] In the production process of photovoltaic glass plates, as one of the important thermal equipment, the furnace plays a crucial role in ensuring product quality and production efficiency. As one of the core components of the glass tank furnace, the throat is located inside the furnace and is mainly used to control and guide the flow of molten glass, ensuring that the glass liquid can be evenly distributed and flow to the forming area. Its design and maintenance have a profound impact on the continuity and quality stability of the entire production process. The throat cover brick is easily scoured and eroded by the molten glass, especially the erosion from above is more serious, resulting in increased wear of the cover brick and shortening its service life. As the erosion continues, the overall structure of the throat may be damaged, thus affecting its sealing performance. Once the seal fails, the glass liquid may overflow outside the furnace body under the action of pressure, triggering serious safety accidents. At the same time, frequent maintenance and replacement of the throat cover brick not only increase the production cost, but also cause frequent shutdowns of the production line, seriously affecting the production efficiency. Summary of the Utility Model
[0003] The technical problem to be solved by the present disclosure is to provide a throat structure of a furnace, which effectively reduces the erosion degree of the cover brick by fluid (such as molten glass), and then significantly extends the service life of the throat. It is not only beneficial to prevent fluid leakage, but also can greatly reduce the maintenance cost of the furnace.

[0005] In some embodiments, the brick body includes side bricks located on both sides of the throat, and the side bricks are provided with chamfers on the inflow side of the throat.
[0006] In some embodiments, a protective layer is provided on the fluid scouring wall of the side bricks.
[0007] In some embodiments, the cover brick forms an annular groove for installing the protective layer, and the depth of the annular groove is set corresponding to the thickness of the protective layer.
[0008] In some embodiments, the protective layer is wrapped along the circumferential side of the cover brick, and a splicing seam is formed at the connection of the protective layer.
[0009] In some embodiments, the splicing seam is located at the non-contact part between the cover brick and the fluid.

[0011] In some embodiments, the protective layer includes a wear-resistant layer and a heat-absorbing layer arranged from the inside out. The heat-absorbing layer is located between the wear-resistant layer and the cover brick, and the wear-resistant layer is in contact with the fluid.
[0012] In some embodiments, the wear-resistant layer is a platinum wear-resistant layer or a platinum-rhodium wear-resistant layer.
[0013] In some embodiments, the heat-absorbing layer is a silicon carbide heat-absorbing layer or an alumina ceramic heat-absorbing layer.
[0014] Through the above technical solution, a liquid flow hole structure of a kiln furnace provided by the present disclosure includes a brick body.

[0027] Technologies, methods, and devices known to those of ordinary skill in the relevant art may not be discussed in detail, but where appropriate, the technologies, methods, and devices should be regarded as part of the specification.
[0028] Referring to Figures 1 to 3 , this disclosure provides a throat structure of a kiln, including a brick body 1. A throat 2 is formed by surrounding the brick body 1. The brick body 1 includes a cover brick 1-1 located above the throat. The cover brick 1-1 is provided with a chamfer on the inflow side of the throat 2, and a protective layer 3 is provided on the fluid scouring wall of the cover brick 1-1. Chamfering the cover brick 1-1 enables the fluid to flow more smoothly without causing excessive wear of the cover brick. At the same time, the protective layer 3 is provided on the fluid scouring wall. The protective layer 3 has corrosion resistance and can effectively prevent chemical substances in the fluid from corroding the cover brick 1-1. The protective layer 3 also has heat resistance to resist the thermal shock of high-temperature fluid and protect the cover brick 1-1 from thermal damage, which can reduce the erosion of the fluid on the cover brick 1-1, thereby significantly extending the service life of the throat 2. This is not only conducive to preventing fluid leakage but also can greatly reduce the maintenance cost of the kiln. It should be noted that the performance of the protective layer 3 is selected with appropriate processes and materials to be conducive to protecting the brick body 1.
[0029] In some embodiments, the brick body 1 includes side bricks 1-2 located on both sides of the throat 2. The side bricks 1-2 are provided with chamfers on the inflow side of the throat, which can effectively disperse the impact force when the fluid enters, avoiding the fluid directly vertically impacting the surface of the brick body 1, thereby reducing the mechanical wear of the brick body 1. After passing through the chamfer, the flow direction of the fluid is guided and smoothed to a certain extent, reducing the turbulence phenomenon, and further reducing the erosion rate of the fluid on the side bricks 1-2, extending the service life of the side bricks 1-2. The degree of the chamfer is 40 to 65 degrees, which can help optimize the distribution of the fluid in the throat 2, ensure that the impact of the fluid on the throat 2 is evenly distributed on the brick body 1, and avoid excessive wear of the side bricks 1-2. Therefore, the workload of regular inspection and maintenance is also correspondingly reduced, reducing the maintenance cost.
[0030] In some embodiments, a protective layer 3 is provided on the fluid scouring wall of the side brick 1-2. The protective layer 3 has corrosion resistance, which can effectively prevent the chemical substances in the fluid from corroding the side brick 1-2. The protective layer 3 also has heat resistance to resist the thermal shock of high-temperature fluid and protect the side brick 1-2 from thermal damage. The protective layer 3 also has wear resistance, which further improves the wear resistance of the side brick 1-2 during long-term use and reduces the maintenance frequency and cost caused by wear.
[0031] In some embodiments, the cover brick 1-1 is formed with an annular groove for installing the protective layer 3. The depth of the annular groove is set corresponding to the thickness of the protective layer 3. By presetting the depth of the annular groove, it is ensured that the protective layer 3 is accurately positioned during installation, closely combined with the cover brick 1-1, increasing the stability and reliability of the overall structure, reducing the risk of the protective layer loosening or falling off, and avoiding the reduction of the protective effect due to improper installation. The protective layer 3 is closely fitted with the annular groove, which helps the cover brick 1-1 after covering the protective layer 3 to form a good sealing effect with the adjacent brick 1 and helps prevent fluid leakage.
[0032] Regarding the annular groove, it should be noted that the area of the protective layer 3 covered by the cover brick 1-1 is machined, and a thickness of 1-1.5 mm is machined off to form the annular groove. The thickness of the protective layer 3 is 1-1.5 mm, and the two thicknesses correspond to each other to ensure that the surface of the cover brick 1-1 after covering the protective layer 3 is coplanar with the surface of the adjacent brick 1. In addition, referring to Figure 1 , the circumferential side surfaces of the cover brick 1-1 except for the transverse end surfaces can also be machined, and the machining thickness should correspond to the thickness of the protective layer 3.
[0033] In some embodiments, the protective layer 3 is wrapped along the circumferential side of the cover brick 1-1, and a splicing seam 3-1 is formed at the connection of the protective layer 3. Combining with the above embodiments of the annular groove, the existing cover brick 1-1 can be transformed.
[0034] In some embodiments, the splicing seam 3-1 is located at the non-contact part of the cover brick 1-1 and the fluid, so as to avoid the splicing seam 3-1 with weak structural strength from being scoured by the fluid and ensure the service life.
[0035] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 2 , the splicing seam 3-1 is located at the ridge line of the cover brick 1-1, which is convenient for splicing after the protective layer 3 is wrapped.
[0036] Referring to Figure 1 and Figure 2, it should be noted that regarding the position of the covering protective layer 3 on the cover brick 1-1 and the splicing seam 3-1, the sealing performance at the splicing seam 3-1 is relatively weak. When the fluid does not directly contact or impact this area, it is beneficial to control the risk of fluid leakage into the contact surface between the cover brick 1-1 and the protective layer 3, and increase the sealing performance and reliability of the covering protective layer 3 on the cover brick 1-1. Setting the splicing seam 3-1 at the ridge line instead of the plane area directly passed by the fluid can reduce the disturbance during the fluid flow process, is beneficial to the smooth flow of the fluid, and reduces the fluid resistance. The splicing seam 3-1 is located at the ridge line of the cover brick 1-1, and the curvature change at the ridge line is relatively small, making it easier to achieve welding compared to other positions, which helps to simplify the manufacturing and installation process of the protective layer 3. In addition, setting the splicing seam 3-1 at a non-fluid contact part is convenient for observing the state of the splicing seam 3-1 during daily inspection and maintenance, and discovering and handling it in a timely manner.
[0037] In some embodiments, the protective layer 3 includes a wear-resistant layer and a heat-absorbing layer arranged from the inside to the outside. The heat-absorbing layer is located between the wear-resistant layer and the cover brick 1-1, and the wear-resistant layer is in contact with the fluid. The protective layer 3 is located at the liquid flow hole 2, and the surface in contact with the fluid is the inner surface, and the surface in contact with the brick body 1 is the outer surface. The wear-resistant layer is directly in contact with the fluid, which can reduce the wear of the fluid on the protective layer 3. The heat-absorbing layer is located between the wear-resistant layer and the cover brick 1-1, absorbs and disperses the heat of the fluid to the cover brick 1-1, and avoids undue damage to the wear-resistant layer caused by high temperature, thereby improving the service life of the protective layer 3.
[0038] In some embodiments, the wear-resistant layer is a platinum wear-resistant layer or a platinum-rhodium wear-resistant layer. Platinum and platinum-rhodium alloys have very strong corrosion resistance and can remain stable even in harsh chemical environments. At the same time, both platinum and platinum-rhodium alloys have relatively high hardness and toughness, and also have good thermal stability, and can maintain their structural integrity under high-temperature conditions. Platinum-rhodium alloy is an alloy composed of two metals, platinum (Platinum, Pt) and rhodium (Rhodium, Rh). This alloy has good high-temperature stability and corrosion resistance.
[0039] Regarding the tooling of the protective layer 3, taking the platinum protective layer as an example of the protective layer 3, along the circumferential side of the cover brick 1-1, a structure adapted to the structure of the cover brick 1-1 is folded out, and then it is covered. During the covering process, a wooden tool is used to continuously flatten the platinum protective layer to make the platinum protective layer keep the same shape as the cover brick 1-1, keep the cover brick 1-1 in close contact with the adjacent brick body 1, and no bulges can be formed in the covered area of the platinum protective layer. Finally, at the ridge line where the cover brick 1-1 is not in contact with the fluid (such as glass liquid), the platinum protective layer is welded to form a whole, and the two ends of the cover brick 1-1 are not covered with the platinum protective layer and remain in a free expansion state.
[0040] In some embodiments, the heat absorption layer is a silicon carbide heat absorption layer or an alumina ceramic heat absorption layer. Both silicon carbide and alumina ceramics have very high melting points and can maintain structural stability at extremely high temperatures while being able to quickly transfer heat.
[0041] In order to better understand the technical solution of the present disclosure, the following is an explanation in combination with relatively preferred technical features.
[0042] See also Figures 1 to 3 The present invention provides a flow hole structure of a kiln, comprising: a brick body 1, a flow hole 2 formed by the brick body 1, wherein the brick body 1 comprises a cover brick 1-1 located above the flow hole and side bricks 1-2 located on both sides of the flow hole 2, the cover brick 1-1 is provided with a chamfer on the inflow side of the flow hole 2, and a protective layer 3 is provided on the fluid scouring wall of the cover brick 1-1, the side brick 1-2 is provided with a chamfer on the inflow side of the flow hole, and the cover brick 1-1 is formed with a protective layer for installing An annular groove is provided for the protective layer 3, and the depth of the annular groove is set corresponding to the thickness of the protective layer 3. The protective layer 3 is coated along the circumference of the cover brick 1-1. A joint seam 3-1 is formed at the connection of the protective layer 3. The joint seam 3-1 is located at the ridge of the cover brick 1-1. The protective layer 3 includes a wear-resistant layer and a heat-absorbing layer arranged from the inside to the outside. The heat-absorbing layer is located between the wear-resistant layer and the cover brick 1-1. The wear-resistant layer is in contact with the fluid. The wear-resistant layer is a platinum wear-resistant layer, and the heat-absorbing layer is a silicon carbide heat-absorbing layer.
[0043] The tooling method of the protective layer 3 is as follows: the area of the protective layer 3 covered by the cover brick 1-1 is cut and a certain thickness is machined off to form an annular groove. The machining size is close to the thickness of the protective layer 3 to facilitate mutual cooperation, ensuring that the cover brick 1-1 is coplanar with the surface of the adjacent brick body 1 after the protective layer 3 is covered. The protective layer 3 is folded along the side of the cover brick 1-1 according to the structure of the cover brick 1-1 to form a corresponding structure, and then covered. During the covering process, the protective layer 3 is continuously flattened using wooden tools to keep the protective layer 3 consistent with the shape of the cover brick 1-1, keep the cover brick 1-1 and the adjacent brick body 1 tightly fitted, and the area covered by the protective layer 3 cannot form a bulge. Finally, the protective layer 3 is welded at the ridge where the cover brick 1-1 is not in contact with the fluid (for example: glass liquid) to form a whole. The two ends of the cover brick 1-1 are not covered with the protective layer 3 and remain in a free expansion state.
[0044] The above solution has the following advantages. The cover brick 1-1 and the side brick 1-2 are provided with chamfers on the inflow side of the liquid flow hole, and a protective layer 3 is provided on the fluid scouring wall of the cover brick 1-1. The chamfers enable the fluid to flow more smoothly without causing excessive wear of the cover brick 1-1 and the side brick 1-2. At the same time, the protective layer 3 provided on the fluid scouring wall of the cover brick 1-1 can reduce the erosion of the fluid on the cover brick 1-1, thereby significantly extending the service life of the liquid flow hole 2. This is not only beneficial to preventing fluid leakage but also can greatly reduce the maintenance cost of the kiln furnace.
