Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of glassware processing and cooling equipment, in particular to a glassware cooling air outlet regulating mechanism. Background Art

[0002] Glassware is a kind of container made of glass. Most of them are made of soda-lime silicate glass and are colorless and transparent.

[0003] Currently, most glassware is cooled using direct airflow. While this method is suitable for most glassware, due to the varying shapes of different glassware, the airflow is concentrated in the same location for a long period of time, causing the cooling rate of the glassware to decrease from the direct airflow point outward, resulting in a limited cooling rate for glass further away from the direct airflow point.

[0004] For this reason, we propose to design a glassware cooling outlet regulating mechanism. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this section is to summarize some aspects of the embodiments of the present invention and briefly introduce some preferred embodiments. Some simplifications or omissions may be made in this section and in the abstract and title of the utility model to avoid obscuring the purpose of this section, the abstract and the title of the utility model, and such simplifications or omissions shall not be used to limit the scope of the present invention.

[0011] As a preferred solution of the glassware cooling air outlet adjustment mechanism described in the utility model, the outer air duct is connected to the third air hole correspondingly, and the inner air duct is connected to the fourth air hole correspondingly.

[0013] As a preferred solution of the glassware cooling outlet adjustment mechanism described in the utility model, the outer side wall of the lower air door is fixedly connected to a gear ring, and the gear ring is meshed with the driving gear. The driving gear is driven to rotate by the motor, which drives the gear ring to rotate, and then drives the lower air door to rotate, making it convenient for the staff to adjust the positional relationship between the lower air door and the upper air door.

[0022] In order to make the above-mentioned objects, features and advantages of the present invention more obvious and easy to understand, the specific embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0023] Next, the present invention is described in detail with reference to schematic diagrams.

[0025] See also Figure 1-4The utility model provides a glassware cooling air outlet adjustment mechanism, including an air inlet pipe 1, an upper air door 2 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the air inlet pipe 1, a lower air door 3 is provided at the bottom of the upper air door 2, an annular groove 301 is opened at the outer edge of the top of the lower air door 3, and a limiting ring 201 corresponding to the annular groove 301 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the upper air door 2. The upper air door 2 is rotatably connected to the lower air door 3. By rotating the lower air door 3, it is convenient to adjust the corresponding air hole position between the upper air door 2 and the lower air door 3, and adjust the air outlet intensity and air outlet direction.

[0026] A first air hole 4 and a second air hole 5 are provided inside the upper air door 2 , a third air hole 6 is provided inside the lower air door 3 near the outer edge, and a fourth air hole 7 is provided inside the lower air door 3 near the center.

[0027] There are multiple first air holes 4 and third air holes 6, and the multiple first air holes 4 and third air holes 6 correspond one to one in the vertical direction. When the first air holes 4 and the third air holes 6 correspond, the cooling air supplied into the air inlet pipe 1 is convenient to be ejected through the third air holes 6.

[0028] There are several second air holes 5 and fourth air holes 7, which correspond one to one. The second air holes 5 and the fourth air holes 7 are staggered in the vertical direction, so that when the first air holes 4 and the third air holes 6 are connected respectively, the second air holes 5 and the fourth air holes 7 are staggered respectively, and the two are not connected at the same time.

[0029] An outer air duct 8 and an inner air duct 9 are fixedly connected to the bottom of the lower air door 3. The outer air duct 8 is connected to the third air hole 6, and the inner air duct 9 is connected to the fourth air hole 7. The outer air duct 8 and the inner air duct 9 facilitate the cooling air flow in the air inlet pipe 1 to be ejected in different directions, so that the cooling air can better cover and wrap the outside of the glassware, thereby improving the cooling effect.

[0030] In this embodiment, the air outlet at the bottom end of the outer air duct 8 is inclined inward, and the air outlet at the bottom end of the inner air duct 9 is inclined outward, and the air path mode can be switched between blowing from the inside to the outside and blowing from the outside to the inside, so as to adapt to the outer wall of glassware of different shapes and improve the cooling efficiency.

[0031] The outer wall of the air inlet pipe 1 is fixedly connected to a motor 10, and the drive shaft of the motor 10 is fixedly connected to a drive gear 11. At the same time, the outer wall of the lower air door 3 is fixedly connected to a gear ring 12, which is meshed with the drive gear 11. The motor 10 drives the drive gear 11 to rotate, which drives the gear ring 12 to rotate, and then drives the lower air door 3 to rotate, making it easy for the staff to adjust the position relationship between the lower air door 3 and the upper air door 2.

[0032] When in use, the air inlet pipe 1 is connected to the external cooling air flow supply passage, and the motor 10 is connected to the external power supply.

[0033] When the first air hole 4 and the third air hole 6 are connected to each other, the cooling air flow can be introduced into the air inlet pipe 1, and enter the outer air duct 8 through the third air hole 6. The plurality of outer air ducts 8 arranged in a ring shape blow air evenly from the outside to the inside, so that the cooling air flow is ejected from multiple angles, covering a larger area outside the glassware, so that the glassware is cooled more evenly and fully. In this embodiment, the outer air duct 8 is often used to cool glassware placed in a convex shape.

[0034] During this period, the second air holes 5 and the fourth air holes 7 are arranged in a staggered manner. At this time, no airflow is ejected from the inner air duct 9 to prevent the airflow from impacting the airflow in the outer air duct 8, causing airflow interference and affecting the ejection direction of the airflow.

[0035] Similarly, when the inner air duct 9 needs to be sprayed, it is only necessary to start the motor 10 to drive the driving gear 11 to rotate. Under the meshing drive action of the gear ring 12 and the driving gear 11, the lower air door 3 is driven to rotate, so that the first air hole 4 and the third air hole 6 are staggered, and the second air hole 5 and the fourth air hole 7 are connected. At this time, air is blown from the inside to the outside through the inner air duct 9. In this embodiment, the inner air duct 9 is often used to cool glassware placed with a concave top.

[0036] The motor 10 in this device is a servo motor with a self-locking drive shaft. It can also be programmed using an external PLC, facilitating better control by the operator. When the motor 10 is activated, the wind force can be adjusted to meet actual cooling air supply requirements by changing the overlapping areas between the first and third air holes 4, 6, and between the second and fourth air holes 5, 7.

[0037] While the present invention has been described above with reference to specific embodiments, various modifications may be made and equivalent components may be substituted without departing from the scope of the present invention. In particular, as long as no structural conflicts exist, the various features of the embodiments disclosed herein may be combined with one another in any manner, and the omission of an exhaustive description of these combinations in this specification is solely for the sake of space and resource conservation. Therefore, the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed herein, but encompasses all technical solutions within the scope of the claims.
