Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of kiln temperature control technology, and more specifically, to an adjustable vent structure for temperature control in glass product kilns. Background Technology

[0002] In the glass manufacturing process, the furnace is an indispensable piece of equipment, and the control of its internal temperature is crucial to the quality of the glass products. Traditional glass furnace temperature control usually relies on complex temperature control systems, including temperature sensors, controllers, and actuators. While these systems can achieve precise temperature control, they are costly and complex to maintain.

[0003] Furthermore, the traditional kiln air inlet structure is often fixed and cannot be adjusted according to actual needs, thus limiting the flexible control of the kiln internal temperature. When it is necessary to increase the kiln internal temperature, it can usually only be achieved by increasing the fuel supply or adjusting the combustion parameters. This method is not only energy-intensive, but also has limited temperature control accuracy and response speed. Therefore, in view of the above technical problems, an adjustable air inlet structure for temperature control of glass product kilns is proposed. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide an adjustable air inlet structure for temperature control of glass product kilns. By flexibly controlling the approach or separation of two sets of rotating plates, the air inlet space can be arbitrarily adjusted, thereby achieving temperature control inside the kiln without relying on other complex temperature control structures, and the operation is convenient.

[0005] This utility model is achieved through the following technical solution:

[0006] An adjustable vent structure for temperature control in a glass kiln includes a main body, which is a square cylindrical structure. Two sets of symmetrically arranged first connecting members are fixedly connected to the inner side of the main body. A rotating plate is rotatably connected to the outer side of each first connecting member, and the rotating plate is slidably connected to the main body. A spring-loaded mechanism is installed between the rotating plate and the main body. A fixed plate is fixedly connected to the end of the rotating plate. A tensioning mechanism is installed on the outer side of the main body. A second connecting member is fixedly connected to the end of the fixed plate. An air guide plate is fixedly connected to the outer side of the second connecting member, and the end of the air guide plate is limited and slidably mounted on the two side walls of the main body.

[0007] Preferably, the rebound mechanism includes an arc-shaped cylinder, an arc-shaped insert rod, and a first spring. The arc-shaped cylinder is fixedly connected to the inner side of the main structure, the arc-shaped insert rod is fixedly connected to the outer side of the rotating plate, and the end of the arc-shaped insert rod is slidably connected to the inner side of the arc-shaped cylinder. The first spring is fixedly connected to the inner side of the arc-shaped cylinder, and the other end of the first spring is fixedly connected to the end of the arc-shaped insert rod.

[0008] Preferably, the tensioning mechanism includes a fixed block, a drive motor, a rotating rod, and a connecting rope. The fixed block is fixedly connected to the outside of the main structure, and there are two sets of fixed blocks arranged vertically. The drive motor is fixedly connected to the outside of one set of fixed blocks.

[0009] Preferably, the rotating rod is rotatably connected between the two sets of fixed blocks, the connecting rope is fixedly connected to the outside of the rotating rod, and the end of the connecting rope passes through the outside of the main structure and is fixedly connected to one side of the fixed plate.

[0010] Preferably, a groove is provided on the inner side of the main structure, and a slider is fixedly connected to the end of the air guide plate, and the slider is slidably connected to the inner side of the groove.

[0011] Preferably, a second spring is fixedly connected to the inner side of the slide groove, and the other end of the second spring is fixedly connected to the bottom of the slider.

[0012] Preferably, the main body of the structure is fixedly connected to an external mounting plate, and the mounting plate is located on the side close to the first connecting member. The mounting plate has an air inlet on its exterior, which is connected to the internal space of the main body of the structure. The mounting plate also has mounting holes on its exterior.

[0013] The technical solution of this utility model has at least the following beneficial effects:

[0014] This invention proposes an adjustable air inlet structure for temperature control in glass kilns. Through the operation of a drive motor, the air inlet space can be flexibly adjusted to control the internal temperature of the kiln. When the kiln temperature needs to be increased, the drive motor rotates a rotating rod to wind a connecting rope, causing the two sets of fixed plates to separate. This, in turn, causes the two sets of rotating plates to rotate around a first connecting piece and separate, expanding the air inlet space, increasing the air volume, and raising the internal temperature of the kiln. Simultaneously, the movement of the rotating plates compresses a first spring. When the kiln temperature needs to be decreased, the reverse drive motor slowly releases the connecting rope. Under the elastic force of the compressed first spring, the rotating plates are pushed outward, causing the two sets of rotating plates to move closer together, gradually reducing the air inlet space until a suitable temperature is achieved. This structure, by flexibly controlling the approach or separation of the rotating plates, achieves arbitrary adjustment of the air inlet space, thereby precisely controlling the internal temperature of the kiln. It eliminates the need for a complex temperature control system, is easy to operate, and has significant effects. Attached Figure Description

[0021] Please see Figures 1-4 This utility model proposes an adjustable vent structure for temperature control in glass kilns, comprising a main body 1, which is a square cylindrical structure. Two sets of symmetrically arranged first connecting members 2 are fixedly connected to the inner side of the main body 1. A rotating plate 3 is rotatably connected to the outer side of the first connecting members 2, and the rotating plate 3 is slidably connected to the main body 1. A spring-loaded mechanism is installed between the rotating plate 3 and the main body 1. A fixed plate 7 is fixedly connected to the end of the rotating plate 3. A tensioning mechanism is installed on the outer side of the main body 1. A second connecting member 12 is fixedly connected to the end of the fixed plate 7. A guide plate 13 is fixedly connected to the outer side of the second connecting member 12, and the end of the guide plate 13 is limited and slidably mounted on the two side walls of the main body 1.

[0022] The rebound mechanism includes an arc-shaped cylinder 4, an arc-shaped insert rod 5, and a first spring 6. The arc-shaped cylinder 4 is fixedly connected to the inner side of the main body 1, the arc-shaped insert rod 5 is fixedly connected to the outer side of the rotating plate 3, and the end of the arc-shaped insert rod 5 is slidably connected to the inner side of the arc-shaped cylinder 4. The first spring 6 is fixedly connected to the inner side of the arc-shaped cylinder 4, and the other end of the first spring 6 is fixedly connected to the end of the arc-shaped insert rod 5.

[0023] The tensioning mechanism includes a fixed block 8, a drive motor 9, a rotating rod 10, and a connecting rope 11. The fixed block 8 is fixedly connected to the outside of the main structure 1, and there are two sets of fixed blocks 8 arranged vertically. The drive motor 9 is fixedly connected to the outside of one set of fixed blocks 8.

[0024] The rotating rod 10 is rotatably connected between two sets of fixed blocks 8, and the connecting rope 11 is fixedly connected to the outside of the rotating rod 10. The end of the connecting rope 11 passes through the outside of the main body 1 and is fixedly connected to one side of the fixed plate 7.

[0025] The inner side of the main structure 1 is provided with a sliding groove 14, and the end of the air guide plate 13 is fixedly connected to a slider 15, which is slidably connected to the inner side of the sliding groove 14.

[0026] A second spring 16 is fixedly connected to the inner side of the slide 14, and the other end of the second spring 16 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the slider 15.

[0027] The main body 1 is externally fixedly connected to a mounting plate 17, which is located on the side close to the first connector 2. An air inlet 18 is provided on the outside of the mounting plate 17, and the air inlet 18 is connected to the internal space of the main body 1. A mounting hole 19 is provided on the outside of the mounting plate 17.

[0028] The working principle of an adjustable air inlet structure for temperature control of a glass kiln based on an embodiment is as follows: When this structure is installed outside the air inlet 18 of the glass kiln using the mounting plate 17 and mounting holes 19, if it is necessary to expand the air intake space to increase the air intake volume of the kiln and increase the internal temperature, the drive motor 9 can be operated first to make the rotating rod 10 rotate and wind the connecting rope 11. The end of the connecting rope 11 drives the two sets of fixed plates 7 to separate from each other, thereby causing the two sets of rotating plates 3 to rotate around the first connecting piece 2 and separate from each other, thereby expanding the air intake space and allowing more external air to enter the kiln through this structure to increase the internal temperature. At the same time, during this process, the arc-shaped insert rod 5 will slide into the arc-shaped cylinder 4 and compress the first spring 6.

[0029] When it is necessary to reduce the internal temperature of the kiln, the drive motor 9 can be reversed to slowly release the winding connecting rope 11 by the rotating rod 10. At this time, under the elastic force of the compressed first spring 6, the rotating plate 3 will be pushed outward, so that the two sets of rotating plates 3 will move closer to each other, gradually reducing the air intake space until the temperature inside the kiln is adjusted to a suitable level. By flexibly controlling the approach or separation of the two sets of rotating plates 3, the air intake space can be adjusted arbitrarily, thereby achieving temperature control inside the kiln without relying on other complex temperature control structures, making operation convenient.

[0030] Simultaneously, when the fixed plate 7 separates or approaches, it will cause the air guide plate 13 to move accordingly. Its end will drive the slider 15 to slide within the slide groove 14, and the second spring 16 will also be compressed to adjust the expansion or contraction of the air intake area. Moreover, the air guide plate 13 has a certain tilt angle, which allows external air to enter the kiln more smoothly, playing a good auxiliary role.

[0031] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
