Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of glass production equipment technology, and in particular to a glass raw material dehumidification device. Background Technology
[0002] The main component of glass is quartz sand, which is a crystal formed by quartz sand combined with other raw materials such as soda ash, limestone, and feldspar, after being fired at high temperature and then cooled. During storage, glass raw materials absorb a lot of moisture and will solidify into lumps at the bottom of the container after becoming damp. In order to prevent the lumps of raw materials from interfering with the feeding process, the glass raw materials need to be dried to ensure the quality of the glass.
[0003] For example, Chinese utility model patent CN219328272U discloses a dehumidification device suitable for glass raw materials, including a hopper, a hopper cover, and a stirring dehumidification mechanism. The stirring dehumidification mechanism is connected to the top of the hopper via a support plate. The stirring dehumidification mechanism includes a pulley assembly, and several stirring rods are connected below the pulley assembly. The stirring rods include a first stirring rod and a second stirring rod, and the stirring rods are hollow. The first stirring rod is located directly below the pulley assembly, and the second stirring rods are arranged in a ring around the first stirring rod. Exhaust fans are connected to the upper parts of both the first and second stirring rods.
[0004] The above-mentioned patent has at least the following problems: First, the stirring rod stirs the glass raw material vertically, making it difficult to dry the raw material at the bottom of the hopper; second, it is difficult to stir the raw material in the hopper evenly, and the lumpy raw material is not easy to break up, which will prolong the drying time. Utility Model Content
[0005] This invention addresses the shortcomings of existing technologies by developing a dehumidification device for glass raw materials. This invention can both tumble dry and dehumidify glass raw materials and break up blocky glass raw materials, effectively improving the drying effect of glass raw materials.
[0006] The technical solution of this utility model to solve the technical problem is as follows: a glass raw material dehumidification device, including a base frame and a support plate. One end of the base frame is hinged to one end of the support plate, and the other end of the base frame is connected to the other end of the support plate through a lifting device. The support plate is provided with a mounting frame and a driving device. A rotating barrel is rotatably mounted on the mounting frame. Several sets of annular heating rods are provided on the inner wall of the rotating barrel. A stirring rod is rotatably mounted inside the rotating barrel. The output end of the driving device is connected to the other end of the rotating barrel and the stirring rod respectively.
[0007] As an optimization, rotating supports are provided at both ends of the top of the mounting frame, and the two ends of the rotating barrel are mounted on the rotating supports via pivots. By setting the rotating supports and pivots, the rotating barrel can be rotated on the mounting frame.
[0008] As an optimization, both ends of the stirring rod pass through the rotating shaft and are positioned on the outside of the rotating drum. Each end of the stirring rod has an air inlet chamber and an air outlet chamber, each with several sets of air holes. Rotary joints are located at the ends of the air inlet and air outlet chambers. Several evenly spaced support rods are also provided on the stirring rod. By setting up the air inlet chamber, air outlet chamber, air holes, and rotary joints, an air pipe can be connected to displace the air inside the rotating drum. Dry air enters the rotating drum through one set of rotary joints, the air inlet chamber, and the air holes, displacing the hot and humid air from the air holes, the air outlet chamber, and another set of rotary joints, thus improving the drying and dehumidification effect. The support rods can also break up lumpy raw materials and stir the glass raw materials, further enhancing the drying and dehumidification effect.
[0009] As an optimization, the drive unit includes a motor, a first transmission device, and a second transmission device. The output end of the motor is connected to the other end of the stirring rod through the first transmission device, and the output end of the motor is connected to another set of rotating shafts through the second transmission device. By setting up the motor, the first transmission device, and the second transmission device, both the stirring rod and the rotating drum can be driven to rotate simultaneously.
[0010] As an optimization, the lifting device can be any one of a pneumatic cylinder, hydraulic cylinder, or electric cylinder. The bottom of the lifting device is hinged to the base frame, and the top of the lifting device is hinged to the support plate, which can raise the other end of the support plate to facilitate unloading.
[0011] As an optimization, a discharge port is provided at the bottom of one end of the rotating drum, and a feed port is provided at the top of the other end. Several sets of agitators are evenly arranged on the inner wall of the rotating drum. The feed port facilitates feeding, the discharge port facilitates discharge, and the agitators further break up and tumble the glass raw material inside the rotating drum, thus better drying the glass raw material.
[0012] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0013] By setting up a base frame, a support plate can be supported; by setting up a support plate and a lifting device, a drive device and a mounting frame can be installed, facilitating the unloading of the rotating drum; by setting up a mounting frame, the rotating drum can be easily installed; by setting up a drive device, the rotating drum and stirring rod can be rotated, causing the raw material to tumble in the rotating drum, improving the drying and dehumidification efficiency; by setting up a stirring rod, the glass raw material can be stirred and broken into pieces, improving the drying and dehumidification effect; by setting up a heating rod, the glass raw material can be dried and heated.

[0020] To clearly illustrate the technical features of this solution, the present invention will be described in detail below through specific implementation methods and in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.
[0021] Example 1
[0022] Figures 1 to 4 As one embodiment of this utility model, such as Figures 1 to 4 As shown, a glass raw material dehumidification device includes a base frame 1 and a support plate 2. One end of the base frame 1 is hinged to one end of the support plate 2, and the other end of the support plate 2 abuts against the other end of the base frame 1. The middle part of the other end of the base frame 1 is connected to the middle part of the other end of the support plate 2 through a lifting device 3. The support plate 2 is provided with a mounting frame 4 and a driving device 5. A rotating barrel 6 is rotatably mounted on the mounting frame 4. Several sets of annular heating rods 7 are provided on the inner wall of the rotating barrel 6. A stirring rod 8 is rotatably mounted inside the rotating barrel 6. The output end of the driving device 5 is connected to the other end of the rotating barrel 6 and the other end of the stirring rod 8, respectively.
[0023] The base frame 1 can support the support plate 2; the support plate 2 and the lifting device 3 can be used to install the drive device 5 and the mounting frame 4, making it easy to unload the rotating drum 6; the mounting frame 4 can be used to easily install the rotating drum 6; the drive device 5 can drive the rotating drum 6 and the stirring rod 8 to rotate, causing the raw material to tumble in the rotating drum 6, thus improving the drying and dehumidification efficiency; the stirring rod 8 can stir the glass raw material, break up lumpy raw materials, and improve the drying and dehumidification effect; the heating rod 7 can dry and heat the glass raw material.
[0024] like Figure 1 and Figure 4As shown, the top two ends of the mounting frame 4 are provided with rotating supports 9, and the two ends of the rotating barrel 6 are mounted on the rotating supports 9 via rotating shafts 10. By providing rotating supports 9 and rotating shafts 10, the rotating barrel 6 can be rotated on the mounting frame 4.
[0025] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the ends of the stirring rod 8 pass through the rotating shaft 10 and are positioned on the outside of the rotating barrel 6. The stirring rod 8 and the rotating barrel 6 rotate on the same axis. The two ends of the stirring rod 8 are respectively provided with an air inlet chamber 81 and an exhaust chamber 82. Both the air inlet chamber 81 and the exhaust chamber 82 are provided with several sets of air holes. Rotary joints 18 are provided at the ends of the air inlet chamber 81 and the exhaust chamber 82. The rotary joints 18 are mounted on the mounting frame 4 via brackets. Several sets of evenly spaced support rods 11 are provided on the stirring rod 8. By setting up the air inlet chamber 81, the exhaust chamber 82, the air holes, and the rotary joints 18, an air pipe can be connected to displace the air inside the rotating barrel 6. Dry air enters the rotating barrel 6 through a set of rotary joints 18, the air inlet chamber 81, and the air holes, displacing the hot and humid air from the air holes, the exhaust chamber 82, and another set of rotary joints 18, thus improving the drying and dehumidification effect. By setting up the support rods 11, lumpy raw materials can be broken up and the glass raw materials stirred, further improving the drying and dehumidification effect.
[0026] like Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown, the drive device 5 includes a motor 12, a first transmission device 13, and a second transmission device 14. The output end of the motor 12 is connected to the other end of the stirring rod 8 through the first transmission device 13, and the output end of the motor 12 is connected to another set of rotating shafts 10 through the second transmission device 14. Both the first transmission device 13 and the second transmission device 14 are pulley transmission devices. By setting up the motor 12, the first transmission device 13, and the second transmission device 14, the stirring rod 8 and the rotating drum 6 can be driven to rotate simultaneously.
[0027] like Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown, the lifting device 3 is any one of a pneumatic cylinder, hydraulic cylinder or electric cylinder. The bottom of the lifting device 3 is hinged to the base frame 1, and the top of the lifting device 3 is hinged to the support plate 2. The other end of the support plate 2 can be raised to facilitate material unloading.
[0028] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, the rotating drum 6 has a discharge port 16 at the bottom of one end and a feed port 15 at the top of the other end. Several sets of agitators 17 are evenly arranged on the inner wall of the rotating drum 6. The agitators 17 are perpendicular to the inner wall of the rotating drum 6 and are plate-shaped or rod-shaped. The feed port 15 facilitates feeding; the discharge port 16 facilitates discharge; and the agitators 17 break up and tumble the glass raw material inside the rotating drum 6, thus better drying the glass raw material.
[0029] In use, one set of rotary joints 18 is connected to a hot air blower via an air pipe, and another set of rotary joints 18 is connected to an exhaust pipe. Initially, the feed inlet 15 of the rotating drum 6 is located at the top of the other end of the rotating drum 6, while the discharge port 16 is located at the bottom of one end of the rotating drum 6. Glass raw materials are poured into the rotating drum 6 through the feed inlet 15. During feeding, the heating rod 7 is activated to heat the glass raw materials inside the rotating drum 6. After feeding is complete, the feed inlet 15 is closed, and the motor 12 is started. The motor 12 drives the stirring rod 8 to rotate inside the rotating drum 6 via the first transmission device 13. Simultaneously, the motor 12 drives the rotating drum 6 to rotate via the second transmission device 14. The glass raw materials move within the rotating drum... The glass material tumbles and is broken and stirred by the agitator 17. It is important to note that the rotational speed of the agitator 8 is greater than that of the rotating drum 6, allowing the agitator 8 to further break and stir the glass material. Simultaneously with stirring and heating, a hot air blower delivers dry hot air into the rotating drum 6 through a set of rotary joints 18, an air inlet chamber 81, and air holes on the air inlet chamber 81. The dry hot air replaces the humid air, allowing the humid air to be discharged through air holes on the exhaust chamber 82, the exhaust chamber 82, another set of rotary joints 18, and the exhaust pipe. When the air holes on the exhaust chamber 82 are blocked, causing poor exhaust, backflushing can be performed through the exhaust pipe to clear the air holes on the exhaust chamber 82. Figure 4 As shown, after drying and dehumidification are completed, the motor 12 slowly stops rotating and the rotating drum 6 returns to its initial state. At this time, the lifting device 3 is activated, raising the other end of the support plate 2 and tilting the rotating drum 6. Then, the discharge port 16 is opened to discharge the dried and dehumidified glass raw material. This invention can both tumble and dehumidify glass raw materials and break up blocky glass raw materials, effectively improving the drying effect of glass raw materials.
