Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of glass deep processing and cleaning, and in particular to a self-circulating water tank for a cleaning machine. Background Technology

[0002] In the field of glass deep processing, the cleanliness of the glass surface plays a crucial role in subsequent processes such as coating and screen printing. Unwashed glass sheets typically have a high dust content, so cleaning machines are used to clean the surface to ensure it meets the requirements of subsequent processes. Water is the primary liquid used for cleaning glass, and its cleanliness and temperature significantly impact the cleaning effect. Different cleaning areas have different water quality requirements. In the upstream cleaning area, where only a rough wash is performed, there are no special requirements for water quality, and ordinary water is generally sufficient. However, in the downstream cleaning area, because the cleaned glass is directly used for coating, screen printing, etc., specialized equipment is needed to treat the ordinary water to meet certain quality requirements before use.

[0003] Traditional cleaning machines use centralized water supply. After cleaning the glass, the water is discharged directly through the drain, and the water cannot be reused, resulting in a great waste of water resources. Utility Model Content

[0004] The technical problem to be solved by this invention is how to recycle the water used for cleaning glass.

[0005] This utility model solves the above-mentioned technical problems through the following technical means: a self-circulating water tank for a cleaning machine, including a water storage area, a partition, an overflow port, and a drain port; the glass processing line is divided into multiple cleaning areas from upstream to downstream, and multiple water storage areas are arranged in a row, with each water storage area corresponding to one cleaning area; an external water source supplies water to the downstream cleaning area, and a circulating filtration water supply path is formed between each water storage area and its corresponding cleaning area; a partition is provided between adjacent water storage areas, and an overflow port connecting adjacent water storage areas is provided at the top of the partition, with the height of each overflow port gradually increasing from upstream to downstream, and a drain port is provided at the bottom of the upstream water storage area.

[0006] An external water source cleans the glass in the downstream cleaning area. The cleaned water flows into the downstream storage area, is filtered, and then re-enters the downstream cleaning area to clean the glass. This cycle continues until the glass in the downstream cleaning area is cleaned. When the water level in each storage area is higher than the overflow outlet between it and the adjacent upstream storage area, water flows into the adjacent upstream storage area through the overflow outlet. The water entering each storage area also circulates between itself and its corresponding cleaning area. In this way, water continuously flows from the downstream storage area to the adjacent upstream storage area. Finally, the unusable wastewater in the upstream storage area is discharged through the drain outlet. Through this process, the water used for cleaning the glass is recycled, saving water resources. The water in the storage areas becomes increasingly cleaner from upstream to downstream, meeting the water quality requirements of different cleaning areas.

[0007] As an optimized technical solution, the self-circulating water tank for the cleaning machine also includes a water supply valve, and a first spray pipe is provided in the downstream cleaning area, with an external water source connected to the first spray pipe through the water supply valve.

[0008] As an optimized technical solution, each cleaning area is equipped with a second spray pipe, and each water storage area is connected to the second spray pipe of the corresponding cleaning area through a pipeline equipped with a water pump and a filter.

[0009] As an optimized technical solution, each water storage area is equipped with a filter tank at the top, and the water outlet of each cleaning area's drain hopper is connected to the filter tank of the corresponding water storage area through a water flow channel.

[0010] As an optimized technical solution, each water storage area is equipped with a water replenishment mechanism. When the water level in a storage area is too low, the water replenishment mechanism is activated, and an external water source replenishes the storage area. When the water level in the storage area reaches the required level, the water replenishment mechanism is deactivated, stopping the replenishment and ensuring that the water in each storage area remains within a controllable range.

[0011] As an optimized technical solution, the water replenishment mechanism includes a level switch and a float valve. The level switch is provided in the water storage area, and the float valve is provided at the bottom of the water storage area.

[0012] As an optimized technical solution, each water storage area is equipped with an overflow pipe. The overflow pipe is located within the water storage area, and its upper end is at the design maximum water level of the corresponding water storage area. The overflow pipe is connected to the drain outlet at the bottom of the water storage area. When there is too much water in a certain water storage area for some reason, the water will be discharged through the overflow pipe and drain outlet, ensuring that the water in each water storage area does not cross-contaminate, thereby ensuring that the water quality meets the process requirements.

[0013] As an optimized technical solution, each water storage area is equipped with a heating mechanism and a temperature measuring mechanism. The temperature measuring mechanism detects the water temperature. When the water temperature is lower than the set temperature, the heating mechanism is activated to heat the water. When the water temperature is higher than the set temperature, the heating mechanism is deactivated, ensuring a constant water temperature and reducing the impact of temperature changes on the glass cleaning effect.

[0014] As an optimized technical solution, the heating mechanism adopts a threaded heater.

[0015] As an optimized technical solution, the temperature measuring mechanism adopts a temperature transmitter.

[0016] The advantages of this utility model are:

[0017] 1. The water used for cleaning glass is recycled, saving water resources. The water in the storage area becomes cleaner from upstream to downstream, meeting the water quality requirements of different cleaning areas.

[0018] 2. When the water level in the storage area is too low, the water replenishment mechanism is activated, and an external water source replenishes the storage area. When the water level in the storage area reaches the required level, the water replenishment mechanism is deactivated, and water replenishment stops, ensuring that the water in each storage area remains within a controllable range.

[0019] 3. When there is too much water in a certain water storage area due to certain reasons, the water will be discharged from the drain outlet through the overflow pipe to ensure that the water in each water storage area does not cross-contaminate, thereby ensuring that the water quality meets the process requirements.

[0020] 4. The water temperature is detected by a temperature measuring device. When the water temperature is lower than the set temperature, the heating device is turned on to heat the water. When the water temperature is higher than the set temperature, the heating device is turned off, thus ensuring a constant water temperature and reducing the impact of temperature changes on the glass cleaning effect.

[0024] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the embodiments of this utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model.

[0025] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown in the figure, this utility model embodiment discloses a self-circulating water tank for a cleaning machine, including a water storage area 1, a partition 2, an overflow port 3, a drain port 4, a water supply valve 5, a filter tank 6, a water pump 7, a filter 8, a water replenishment mechanism 9, an overflow pipe 10, a heating mechanism 11, and a temperature measuring mechanism 12.

[0026] The glass processing line is divided into three cleaning zones and three water storage zones from upstream to downstream. Figure 2 The glass flows indicated by the arrows are arranged in a row, with each water storage area 1 corresponding to a cleaning area; the external water source supplies water to the downstream cleaning area, and a circulating filtration water supply path is formed between each water storage area 1 and the corresponding cleaning area; a partition 2 is provided between adjacent water storage areas 1, and the partition 2 is made of 304 stainless steel; the upper part of the partition 2 is provided with an overflow port 3 that connects adjacent water storage areas 1, and the height of each overflow port 3 gradually increases from upstream to downstream; a sewage outlet 4 is provided at the bottom of the upstream water storage area 1.

[0027] The downstream cleaning area is equipped with a first spray pipe, and an external water source is connected to the first spray pipe through a water supply valve 5.

[0028] Each cleaning area is equipped with a second spray pipe. Each water storage area 1 is connected to the second spray pipe of the corresponding cleaning area through a pipeline equipped with a water pump 7 and a filter 8. The filter 8 is made of 304 stainless steel.

[0029] Each water storage area 1 is equipped with a filter tank 6 at its upper part, and the water outlet of each cleaning area's drain hopper is connected to the filter tank 6 of the corresponding water storage area 1 through a water flow channel.

[0030] Each water storage area 1 is also equipped with a water replenishment mechanism 9, an overflow pipe 10, a heating mechanism 11, and a temperature measuring mechanism 12. The water replenishment mechanism 9 is used to replenish water to the water storage area 1, the overflow pipe 10 is used to drain excess water from the water storage area 1, the heating mechanism 11 is used to heat the water in the water storage area 1, and the temperature measuring mechanism 12 is used to detect the water temperature in the water storage area 1.

[0031] The water replenishment mechanism 9 includes a level switch 91 and a float valve 92. The level switch 91 is installed in the water storage area 1 to detect the water level in the water storage area 1. The float valve 92 is installed at the bottom of the water storage area 1 and is made of 304 stainless steel. When the level switch 91 detects that the water level in the water storage area 1 is too low, the float valve 92 automatically opens, and the external water source replenishes the water storage area 1. When the level switch 91 detects that the water level in the water storage area 1 reaches the required level, the float valve 92 automatically closes and stops replenishing the water, ensuring that the water in each water storage area 1 is within a controllable range.

[0032] The overflow pipe 10 is installed in the water storage area 1 and its upper end is at the design maximum water level of the corresponding water storage area 1. The overflow pipe 10 is connected to the drain outlet at the bottom of the water storage area 1. When there is too much water in a certain water storage area 1 for some reason, the water will be discharged from the drain outlet through the overflow pipe 10, ensuring that the water in each water storage area 1 will not cross, thereby ensuring that the water quality meets the process requirements.

[0033] The heating mechanism 11 uses a threaded heater, and the temperature measuring mechanism 12 uses a temperature transmitter. The water temperature is detected by the temperature measuring mechanism 12. When the water temperature is lower than the set temperature, the heating mechanism 11 is turned on to heat the water. When the water temperature is higher than the set temperature, the heating mechanism 11 is turned off to ensure a constant water temperature and reduce the impact of temperature changes on the glass cleaning effect.

[0034] Working principle: Water supply valve 5 controls the entry of purified water, treated by specialized equipment, from an external water source into the first spray pipe. The first spray pipe sprays the purified water through nozzles to clean the glass in the downstream cleaning area. The cleaned water flows into the drain hopper, and after flowing out of the drain hopper outlet, it flows through the water trough into the filter tank 6 of the downstream water storage area 1. The water undergoes primary filtration in the filter tank 6, and is then pumped by water pump 7 into filter 8 for secondary filtration. It then enters the second spray pipe in the downstream cleaning area to clean the glass. The cleaned water undergoes primary and secondary filtration again before entering the second spray pipe in the downstream cleaning area, thus circulating until the glass in the downstream cleaning area is cleaned. When the water level in the downstream water storage area 1 is higher than that in the intermediate water storage area 1... After the overflow outlet 3, water flows into the middle water storage area 1 through the overflow outlet 3. Similarly, when the water level in the middle water storage area 1 is higher than the overflow outlet 3 between it and the upstream water storage area 1, water flows into the upstream water storage area 1 through the overflow outlet 3. The water entering the middle and upstream water storage areas 1 also circulates and cleans between them and their corresponding cleaning areas. In this way, water continuously flows from the downstream water storage area 1 into the middle water storage area 1, and then from the middle water storage area 1 into the upstream water storage area 1. Finally, unusable wastewater is discharged from the drain outlet 4. Through this process, the water used for cleaning glass is recycled, saving water resources. The water in the upstream to downstream water storage areas 1 becomes cleaner and cleaner, meeting the water quality requirements of different cleaning areas.

Although this utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some of the technical features.
