Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of glass traction equipment technology, and more specifically, to a floating adjustment base and traction equipment. Background Technology
[0002] In the glass production process, traction rollers are used to pull the glass strip for transport and shaping. These traction rollers require a certain amount of floating motion to provide cushioning and prevent rigid collisions that could damage the glass strip. However, most existing traction roller fixing methods are very simple, lacking floating and adjustment capabilities. For example, Chinese Patent 202120302676.1 discloses a traction roller assembly that is easy to install and remove, but it uses a fixed connection side plate to mount the traction roller. This results in a lack of cushioning and difficulty in adjustment, easily causing glass damage. Furthermore, the fixed installation of the traction roller makes it inflexible in use.

[0029] Figures 1 to 3 An embodiment of the floating adjustment base of this application is illustrated schematically.
[0030] like Figures 1 to 3As shown, this application discloses a floating adjustment base, including a base plate assembly 10 and a floating adjustment assembly 20. A slide rail 11 is provided on the base plate assembly 10, and a traction roller fixing seat 12 is slidably disposed on the slide rail 11. The traction roller fixing seat 12 includes two sets arranged side-by-side, independent of each other and adjacent to each other. The floating adjustment assembly 20 includes an elastic mechanism 21 and an adjustment mechanism 22. The elastic mechanism 21 is pre-tensioned and passes through the slide rail 11, located on both sides of the traction roller fixing seat 12. The adjustment mechanism 22 is disposed outside the elastic mechanism 21 and can push the elastic mechanism 21 to change the pre-tension force of the elastic mechanism 21.
[0031] This embodiment of the application uses a slide rail 11 on the base plate assembly 10 to slide the traction roller fixing seat 12, and a floating adjustment assembly 20. The elastic mechanism 21 of the floating adjustment assembly 20 elastically compresses both sides of the traction roller fixing seat 12, achieving floating installation of the traction roller fixing seat 12. Simultaneously, the floating adjustment assembly 20 of this embodiment also includes an adjustment mechanism 22, located outside the elastic mechanism 21. The adjustment mechanism 22 can adjust the preload of the elastic mechanism 21, thereby changing the force with which the traction roller clamps the glass strip, making the traction roller flexible and easy to adjust. For example, in this embodiment, two sets of traction rollers 30 installed on the traction roller fixing seats 12 are used to clamp the traction glass strip. By adjusting the preload of the elastic mechanism 21, the force with which the traction roller 30 clamps the glass strip can be changed, thereby changing the thickness of the glass strip and achieving glass strip shaping. This design is convenient to use and highly adjustable, making the traction and shaping process of the glass strip flexible and easy to operate.
[0032] In some embodiments of this application, such as Figure 1 As shown, the base plate assembly 10 is provided with two sets of parallel slide rails 11. Correspondingly, the traction roller fixing seat 12 is simultaneously mounted on the two sets of slide rails 11 along an axial direction perpendicular to the slide rails 11. By sliding the traction roller fixing seat 12 on the two sets of slide rails 11, the balance and sliding stability of the traction roller fixing seat 12 can be ensured, thereby improving the floating installation effect of the traction roller 30.
[0033] In some embodiments of this application, such as Figure 1As shown, the traction roller fixing seat 12 includes, from bottom to top, a slider 121, a sliding plate 122, and a roller shaft fixing seat 123. Two sets of sliders 121 are provided corresponding to the slide rails 11 and are installed on the bottom surface of the sliding plate 122 for sliding engagement with the two sets of slide rails 11. Two sets of roller shaft fixing seats 123 are also provided, aligned and installed on the top surface of the sliding plate 122, and have shaft holes for installing the roller shaft of the traction roller 30. In this embodiment, the two sets of roller shaft fixing seats 123 are respectively installed at opposite ends of the sliding plate 122, with a certain distance between them, to maximize the engagement range with the roller shaft.
[0034] In some embodiments of this application, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the slide rail 11 is rod-shaped, and the slider 121 has a through hole 124 for the slide rail 11 to pass through. The diameter of the through hole 124 is larger than the diameter of the slide rail 11. Setting the diameter of the through hole 124 to be larger than the diameter of the slide rail 11 ensures smooth sliding of the slider 121 relative to the slide rail 11, facilitating the floating movement of the traction roller 30. Furthermore, the dimensional allowance between the through hole 124 and the slide rail 11 allows for slight rotation of the slider 121 relative to the slide rail 11, facilitating fine-tuning of the tilt of the traction roller 30, thus allowing for adjustments to the glass ribbon shape during production. (Reference) Figure 2 As shown in the diagram, a gap, as indicated by arrow A, is left between the two sets of traction roller fixing seats 12. After the traction rollers 30 are installed, the roller bodies of the two traction rollers 30 can approach each other under the elastic force of the elastic mechanism 21 to clamp the glass strip and perform contact traction of the glass strip. When glass strip shaping is required, the preload can be adjusted by changing the length of the elastic mechanisms 21 on both sides, thereby changing the shaping effect of the traction rollers 30 on the glass.
[0035] In some embodiments of this application, such as Figure 2 As shown, the through hole 124 on the slider 121 is a stepped hole, with a narrow platform 125 inside. The elastic mechanism 21 passes through the slide rail 11, extends into the through hole 124, and pushes against the narrow platform 125. By setting the stepped hole, the end of the elastic mechanism 21 can be protected, allowing it to be reliably placed into the through hole 124, preventing the elastic mechanism 21 from tilting and breaking out, and improving the reliability of the base.
[0036] In some embodiments of this application, such as Figure 1 As shown, the base plate assembly 10 is provided with four sets of adjusting seats 13, which are arranged in pairs for fixing two sets of slide rails 11. The floating adjusting assembly 20 is arranged between the adjusting seats 13 and the traction roller fixing seat 12 to provide elasticity to the traction roller fixing seat 12 and facilitate adjustment.
[0037] In some embodiments of this application, such as Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the elastic mechanism 21 is a cylindrical pressure spring that passes through the slide rail 11 and pushes the traction roller fixing seat 12 with its elastic force. The adjusting mechanism 22 is a cylindrical adjusting sleeve that also passes through the slide rail 11 and is located between the pressure spring and the adjusting seat 13. The adjusting sleeve has a variable length structure, which can change the compression length of the pressure spring by changing its length, thereby adjusting the pressure on the traction roller fixing seat 12 to meet different working conditions.
[0038] In some embodiments of this application, such as Figure 3 As shown, the adjusting mechanism 22 includes a first component 221 and a second component 222, both of which are cylindrical structures and sleeved on the slide rail 11. The first component 221 has an external thread, and the second component 222 has an internal thread. The first component 221 and the second component 222 are threadedly connected. The first component 221 contacts the adjusting seat 13, and the second component 222 contacts the elastic mechanism 21. In use, by rotating the second component 222 relative to the first component 221, the overall length of the first component 221 and the second component 222 is extended or shortened, thereby changing the compression length of the pressure spring to provide different pressures according to working conditions. In some embodiments of this application, such as... Figure 3 As shown, the second component 222 also has a stepped hole at its end, which enables stable contact with the pressure spring.
[0039] In some embodiments of this application, the first component 221 is threadedly connected to the adjusting seat 13. In this case, the entire adjusting mechanism 22 can also be rotated directly to change the position of the adjusting mechanism 22 and realize the pressure adjustment of the pressure spring, making the operation simpler.
[0040] In addition, this application also discloses a traction device, which includes a traction roller 30 and a floating adjustment base as shown in any of the above embodiments. The traction roller 30 is floated by the floating adjustment base to meet the traction process requirements of the glass belt.
[0041] Combination Figures 1 to 3 The following diagram illustrates the working principle of this application:
[0042] After assembly, the two sets of traction roller fixing seats 12 are slidably mounted on the slide rail 11, adjacent to each other and independent of each other. Four sets of floating adjustment components 20 are respectively installed at the four corners of the two sets of traction roller fixing seats 12. The elastic mechanism 21 within these components is in a compressed pre-tightened state, pressing the traction roller fixing seats 12 from both sides towards the center, causing the traction rollers 30 mounted on them to move closer together, jointly clamping the glass strip to achieve reliable traction. The dimensions of the adjustment mechanism 22 are adjusted according to the working conditions to change the elastic pre-tightening force of the elastic mechanism 21, providing an ideal floating state for the traction rollers 30. Furthermore, when the working conditions change and glass shaping is required, by rotating the adjustment mechanism 22 again, the overlap length of the first component 221 and the second component 222 changes, thereby changing the elastic force to obtain a new ideal floating state.
[0043] In summary, the floating adjustment base of this application embodiment includes: a base plate assembly and a floating adjustment assembly. A slide rail is provided on the base plate assembly, and a traction roller fixing seat is slidably mounted on the slide rail. The traction roller fixing seat includes two sets arranged side-by-side, independent of each other and adjacent to each other. The floating adjustment assembly includes: an elastic mechanism and an adjustment mechanism. The elastic mechanism is pre-tensioned and passes through the slide rail, located on both sides of the traction roller fixing seat. The adjustment mechanism is located outside the elastic mechanism and can push the elastic mechanism to change its pre-tension force. This application uses the slide rail on the base plate assembly to slidably mount the traction roller fixing seat, and provides elastic mechanisms on both sides of the traction roller fixing seat. The elastic force of the elastic mechanism is used to achieve the floating installation of the traction roller fixing seat. Furthermore, this application also includes an adjustment mechanism that can adjust the pre-tension force of the elastic mechanism, changing the force with which the traction roller clamps the glass strip, making the traction roller flexible and easy to adjust.
[0044] The above are merely preferred embodiments of this application and are not intended to limit this application. Various modifications and variations can be made to this application by those skilled in the art. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this application should be included within the protection scope of this application.
