Abstract
Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present disclosure relates to the technical field of glass production, in particular to a glass production system. BACKGROUND
[0002] The process production flow of photovoltaic glass raw sheet generally includes the following steps: after the batch material is fed through the feeding tank, it is melted in a melting furnace, is calendared, is annealed, is cut, and is stacked by a sheet grabbing machine; finally, the photovoltaic glass raw sheet is formed.
[0003] In the glass cutting station and the glass transfer station, the glass may be blown off or cracked due to fluctuations in the process production or annealing, cutting, and sheet grabbing. The broken glass cannot be grabbed by the glass transfer equipment but falls through the gap between the two glass plate rollers. The broken glass needs to be cleaned in time to avoid accumulation and affect production. Currently, workers need to drill into the space below the roller to clean it. Since the space below the glass roller is narrow, it is inconvenient for workers to work there. Not only is it time-consuming and labor-intensive, but also workers are easily injured during the cleaning process because the glass is sharp.
[0004] The prior art proposes a broken glass collecting device (CN219949769U) which is specifically arranged below the glass conveying track. The broken glass collecting device includes a baffle frame arranged on both sides of the glass conveying track and a buffer collecting groove connected between the baffle frames. When the glass on the glass conveying track breaks, the broken glass falls into the broken glass collecting device to achieve the effect of collecting the glass. Although this scheme can reduce the cleaning work of broken glass and concentrate the collected glass, the discharge door needs to be opened to open the broken glass discharge outlet for cleaning the collected glass. The broken glass is still stored below the glass conveying track, and there are still problems such as difficulty in cleaning. CONTENT OF THE UTILITY MODEL
