Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of glass product manufacturing technology, and in particular to an annealing apparatus for glassware. Background Technology

[0002] Annealing is an indispensable step in glass manufacturing. Annealing effectively reduces internal stress in the glass, which is often generated during processing due to differences in technology and materials. Annealing allows these stresses to gradually release and reach a balanced state, thus significantly improving the stability and lifespan of the glass. Furthermore, the annealing process optimizes the physical properties of the glass, such as hardness, strength, and toughness. Currently, annealing of glassware is done manually, transporting the finished glassware to the annealing furnace. During transportation, the finished glassware is prone to collisions, leading to damage. Therefore, this paper proposes a glassware annealing device. Utility Model Content

[0016] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figure 1-3 This application will be described in further detail.

[0017] This application discloses a glass annealing apparatus, including an annealing furnace 1. A bottom plate 4 extends outward from the bottom of the inlet of the annealing furnace 1. Tracks 5 are provided on both sides of the bottom surface of the bottom plate 4 and the inner bottom surface of the annealing furnace 1. A trolley 6 is provided on the bottom plate 4. The trolley 6 moves along the track 5. A protective plate 7 is connected to both sides of the upper surface of the trolley 6 by a vertical moving mechanism. The protective plate 7 has uniformly distributed through holes 8 on its surface.

[0018] In this embodiment, the trolley 6 is used to load glassware. By setting the protective plate 7 and the through hole 8, each glassware can be placed inside the through hole 8, thereby separating the glassware and preventing them from colliding with each other during transportation. In addition, by setting the vertical moving mechanism, after the operator manually pushes the trolley 6 into the annealing furnace 1 along the track 5, the protective plate 7 is moved to the bottom of the glassware using the vertical moving mechanism, thereby reducing the impact of the protective plate 7 on the annealing process of the glassware.

[0019] Furthermore, the vertical moving mechanism includes elastic support members set on both sides of the outer surface of the trolley 6. The guard plate 7 is fixedly connected to the moving end of the elastic support member. The outer surface of the trolley 6 is provided with a sliding groove 9 on both sides. A push plate 10 is slidably installed inside the sliding groove 9. The end of the push plate 10 facing the annealing furnace 1 protrudes from the side wall of the trolley 6. A pull rope 11 is fixedly connected to the end of the push plate 10 located inside the sliding groove 9. One end of the pull rope 11 is fixedly connected to the guard plate 7. The sliding groove 9 and the push plate 10 are both parallel to the direction of the track 5.

[0020] Furthermore, the elastic support includes sleeves 12 fixedly installed on both sides of the trolley 6. A telescopic rod 13 is inserted into the top of each sleeve 12. A connecting plate 15 is fixedly connected to the upper end of each telescopic rod 13, and the connecting plate 15 is fixedly connected to the guard plate 7. A spring 14 is fixedly connected between the connecting plate 15 and the sleeve 12, and the spring 14 is sleeved on the outer surface of the telescopic rod 13.

[0021] In this embodiment, when the trolley 6 is pushed into the annealing furnace 1, the push plate 10 first enters the annealing furnace 1 and stops moving due to the obstruction of the inner wall of the annealing furnace 1, while the trolley 6 continues to move into the annealing furnace 1. At this time, the push plate 10 and the trolley 6 move relative to each other, and the push plate 10 pulls the pull rope 11 to move, thereby driving the guard plate 7 to move down. At this time, the telescopic rod 13 moves into the sleeve 12, and the spring 14 is compressed. It should be noted that the elastic force of the spring 14 is insufficient to drive the trolley 6 to move. Therefore, the trolley 6 can remain stationary inside the annealing furnace 1.

[0022] After annealing, the trolley 6 is moved out of the annealing furnace 1, and the pusher plate 10 is moved away from the inner wall of the annealing furnace 1. The compressed spring 14 drives the guard plate 7 to move upward, so that the guard plate 7 can protect the glassware again.

[0023] Furthermore, a slot is provided on the upper surface of the annealing furnace 1 near the inlet, and a furnace door 2 is installed inside the slot. An electric push rod 3 is fixedly connected to the top of the annealing furnace 1. The electric push rod 3 is set vertically, and the upper end of the electric push rod 3 is fixedly connected to the top of the furnace door 2.

[0024] In this embodiment, by setting an electric push rod 3, the furnace door 2 can be moved up and down, thereby controlling the opening and closing status of the annealing furnace 1 inlet.

[0025] Finally, the following points should be noted: First, in the description of this application, it should be noted that, unless otherwise specified and limited, the terms "installation", "connection", and "linkage" should be interpreted broadly, and can be mechanical or electrical connections, or internal connections between two components, or direct connections.
