The bottom of the threaded rod 306 is fixedly connected to the concave frame 301 through a bearing. By setting the air drying component 2, external air can be heated and blown onto the glass, thereby enabling the glass to be conveyed and dried, improving the drying efficiency. At the same time, the filter plate 204 can filter impurities in the air, preventing impurities from adhering to the glass surface during the drying process, thus improving the drying effect. By setting the conveying component 3, the glass can be conveyed to achieve rapid air drying. At the same time, the threaded sleeve 305 and the threaded rod 306 can adjust the height of the upper conveyor belt 303, enabling it to convey glass of different sizes and expand the drying range. Example 2

[0027] Please see Figures 1-4 A surface drying device for optical glass production includes a drying box 201.

A tension spring 8 is sleeved on the surface of the locking rod 5, facilitating the disassembly and replacement of the filter plate 204 by operators. One end of the tension spring 8 is fixedly connected to the limiting plate 7, and the other end of the tension spring 8 is fixedly connected to the drying box 201. A threaded rod 306 is fixedly connected to the top of the filter plate 204.

Then, the upper conveyor belt 303 and the lower conveyor belt 302 are started to rotate, so that they can convey glass of different sizes and expand the drying range.

[0030] Then, the fan 202 is started to heat the outside air and blow it onto the heating grid 203 for heating, and then blow it onto the glass, thereby enabling the glass to be conveyed and dried, improving the drying efficiency. At the same time, the filter plate 204 can filter impurities in the air, preventing impurities from adhering to the glass surface during the drying process, thus improving the drying effect.

[0031] When there is a lot of dust on the surface of the filter plate 204, the operator can pull the limiting plate 7 to move the locking rod 5 out of the slot 6, and then the filter plate 204 can be disassembled. After the new filter plate 204 is placed into the installation slot of the air box 201, the limiting plate 7 is released, and the locking rod 5 will enter the slot 6 under the return force of the tension spring 8, so that the filter plate 204 can be quickly installed.

[0032] In summary, this surface drying device for optical glass production, by setting up the drying component 2, can heat the outside air and blow it onto the glass, thereby enabling the glass to be conveyed and dried, improving the drying efficiency. At the same time, the filter plate 204 can filter impurities in the air, preventing impurities from adhering to the glass surface during the drying process, thus improving the drying effect. The conveying component 3 can convey the glass to achieve rapid drying. In addition, the threaded sleeve 305 and the threaded rod 306 can adjust the height of the upper conveyor belt 303, enabling it to convey glass of different sizes and expand the drying range.
