Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of glass production material processing technology, and more specifically, to an iron remover. Background Technology

[0002] The main raw materials for glass production include quartz sand, limestone, feldspar, soda ash, and boric acid. Before being put into production, these raw materials need to be carefully screened and weighed in the batching process to ensure glass quality. Iron impurities in the raw materials not only affect the appearance and color of the glass but also the melting process and the lifespan of refractory materials. Therefore, a process to remove iron impurities from the raw materials is necessary. Existing iron removal methods use magnetic rods for adsorption. A row of magnetic rods is placed along the path of the raw materials, so that when the raw materials pass through the rods, the iron impurities are adsorbed onto them and prevented from entering subsequent processes. For example, Chinese Patent 201820873325.4 discloses a pipe iron removal device before weighing glass raw materials, which removes iron filings by placing magnetic rods inside a tee. However, when the magnetic rods adsorb too much iron filings, the iron remover needs to be disassembled, the magnetic rods removed, and the iron impurities cleaned by employees wearing gloves. This cleaning process is time-consuming, and employees handling iron-containing chemical raw materials while wearing gloves poses a long-term health hazard. Utility Model Content

[0035] Figures 1 to 8 An embodiment of the iron separator of this application is illustrated schematically.

[0036] like Figures 1 to 8 As shown, this application discloses an iron separator, which includes: a housing assembly 10, which includes a housing 11, with an inlet 12 and an outlet 13 on the housing 11; an iron removal assembly 20, which is mounted on the housing 11 and includes multiple magnetic rods 21; and a scraping assembly 30, which is mounted on the housing 11 and includes a scraper 31 and an elastic scraping member 32. The scraper 31 has a through hole 33 through which the magnetic rods 21 are inserted into the housing 11. The elastic scraping member 32 is arranged around the through hole 33 and is tightly fitted with the magnetic rods 21.

[0037] Through the above structural design, the iron remover of this application is provided with a scraping component 30 on the outer shell assembly 10, and the magnetic rod 21 of the iron removal component 20 is set through the scraping component 30. Thus, when the magnetic rod 21 of the iron removal component 20 needs to be cleaned, the iron removal component 20 can be pulled outward, and the iron-containing impurities on the magnetic rod 21 can be scraped off by the elastic scraper 32. This makes the cleaning operation simple and fast, greatly shortens the cleaning operation time, and is more friendly to the health of employees.

[0038] In some embodiments of this application, such as Figures 1 to 8 As shown, the feed inlet 12 is located on the top surface of the housing 11, and the discharge outlet 13 is located on the bottom surface of the housing 11. The iron removal assembly 20 is retractably mounted on the housing 11 from the front, resembling a drawer for easy use. The scraping assembly 30 is mounted on the housing 11 from the side. The through holes 33 on the scraper 31 are aligned with each magnetic rod 21, allowing the iron removal assembly 20 to pass through and tightly engage with the elastic scraper 32 to ensure that iron-containing impurities on the magnetic rods 21 are easily and cleanly scraped away. Figure 2As shown in the exploded view, a scraper hole 19 is provided on the side of the housing 11, through which the scraper assembly 30 passes into the housing 11. The scraper 31 of the scraper assembly 30 has a handle that protrudes from the housing 11 for easy installation and maintenance.

[0039] In some embodiments of this application, such as Figures 1 to 8 As shown, the iron removal assembly 20 also includes a first handle 22, a first front plate 23, and a tail baffle 24. The first front plate 23 is fixedly connected to the front end of each magnetic rod 21 and is inserted and installed as a whole. The tail baffle 24 is fixedly connected to the tail end of each magnetic rod 21, serving to fix the magnetic rod 21 on one hand, and also as a stop, cooperating with the scraper to prevent the magnetic rod 21 from being completely pulled out during the cleaning process. The first handle 22 is installed on the first front plate 23 to facilitate the pulling operation of the iron removal assembly 20. The front of the housing 11 is provided with a first front hole 14, and the back is provided with a tail hole 15. The first front plate 23 passes through the first front hole 14 and is installed on the housing 11. The tail hole 15 is provided corresponding to the tail baffle 24 to accommodate the tail baffle 24, thereby fixing the position of the magnetic rod 21 inside the housing 11.

[0040] In some embodiments of this application, such as Figure 5 As shown, the housing assembly 10 also includes a first sealing plate 16, which is detachably disposed at the tail hole 15 for sealing the housing 11 of the iron remover to prevent glass powder from escaping and polluting the environment, and to protect the health and safety of on-site employees.

[0041] In some embodiments of this application, such as Figure 2 and Figure 8 As shown, each magnetic rod 21 has a non-magnetic connecting rod 25 connected to its tail end, and the magnetic rod 21 is connected to the tail baffle 24 via the non-magnetic connecting rod 25. By providing a non-magnetic connecting rod 25 at the tail end of the magnetic rod 21, when the magnetic rod 21 is pulled out relative to the elastic scraper 32, iron-containing impurities are removed onto the non-magnetic connecting rod 25 and automatically fall off, achieving rapid cleaning. Furthermore, considering cost and service life, the housing 11 and other structures of the iron separator are generally made of robust stainless steel. When the tail end of the magnetic rod 21 is close to the stainless steel housing 11, it may collide due to excessive magnetic attraction, affecting installation. Therefore, in this embodiment, a non-magnetic connecting rod 25 is used for connection at the tail end of the magnetic rod 21, which also avoids the problems caused by magnetic attraction during installation of the magnetic rod 21, and also prevents excessive accumulation of iron-containing impurities in the tail hole 15. Figure 8 As shown, the connection end between the magnetic rod 21 and the non-magnetic connecting rod 25 is located outside the projection range of the feed inlet 12, and therefore will not affect the iron removal function of the iron separator.

[0042] In some embodiments of this application, such as Figure 2 and Figure 8 As shown, the non-magnetic connecting rod 25 is a stainless steel rod. Stainless steel rods are easy to process, inexpensive, and easy to replace. The stainless steel rod is threaded to the magnetic rod 21 and bolted to the tail baffle 24. In this embodiment, the stainless steel rod and the magnetic rod 21 are the same size to facilitate the smooth passage of the connected rod body through the scraper 31.

[0043] In some embodiments of this application, such as Figures 2 to 8 As shown, the iron remover also includes a collection component 40, which can be inserted into the housing 11 and is attached below the magnetic rod 21. Therefore, during use, the iron remover of this embodiment does not need to be removed from equipment such as the material tank 50; the collection component 40 can be used to collect the scraped iron filings and impurities, further shortening the cleaning operation time and accelerating glass production efficiency.

[0044] In some embodiments of this application, such as Figures 2 to 8 As shown, the collecting assembly 40 includes a second handle 41, a second front plate 42, and a collecting groove 43. The second handle 41 is installed on the outside of the second front plate 42, and the collecting groove 43 is installed on the inside of the second front plate 42. A collecting hole 17 is provided on the housing 11. The collecting assembly 40 inserts the collecting groove 43 into the housing 11 through the collecting hole 17 and places it below the magnetic rod 21 to collect the scraped iron filings and impurities.

[0045] In some embodiments of this application, such as Figure 1 As shown, the housing assembly 10 also includes a second sealing plate 18, which is detachably disposed at the collection hole 17 to seal the housing assembly 10, prevent the glass powder dust from escaping, and protect the health and safety of on-site employees.

[0046] In some embodiments of this application, such as Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, the elastic scraper 32 is a rubber ring with a U-shaped groove on its outer edge. The rubber ring is engaged with the through hole 33 of the scraper 31 through the U-shaped groove, and is tightly fitted to the magnetic rod 21. When the magnetic rod 21 is pulled out, it scrapes off iron-containing impurities. In this embodiment, the rubber ring is a consumable and is replaced periodically. When replacing it, the scraper 31 can be pulled out of the housing 11 through the exposed handle for replacement and maintenance.

[0047] Combination Figures 1 to 8 The working principle of this application is explained as follows:

[0048] First, during assembly, the rubber ring must be installed at the through hole 33 of the scraper 31 and inserted into the housing 11 along with the scraper 31. Then, the first front plate 23 and each magnetic rod 21 are fixedly installed together, with the tail end of the magnetic rod 21 connected to the stainless steel rod via threads. Next, the magnetic rod 21 is inserted through the first front hole 14, passing through the scraper 31 and the rubber ring. Then, the tail baffle 24 and each magnetic rod 21 are bolted together through the tail hole 15 to form a fixed structure. Finally, the tail hole 15 is sealed with the first sealing plate 16, and the collection hole 17 is also sealed with the second sealing plate 18, thus sealing the housing 11.

[0049] In use, the iron remover is installed on a structure such as the material tank 50. Raw materials enter through the inlet 12 of the shell 11. Qualified raw materials enter the material tank 50 through the outlet 13 for production, while iron-containing impurities are attracted to the magnetic rod 21. After completing a set of raw material screening, the second sealing plate 18 on the collection hole 17 is removed, and the collection assembly 40 is inserted into the shell 11 through the collection hole 17. Then, the first handle 22 is gripped and pulled outward, causing the magnetic rod 21 to slide through the rubber ring until the tail baffle 24 is in contact with the scraper 31. Under the obstruction of the rubber ring, the iron-containing impurities are pushed to the position of the stainless steel rod, thereby losing magnetic attraction and falling into the collection tank 43, realizing the scraping and collection of iron-containing impurities. After collection is complete, push the iron removal component 20 back into its original position inside the housing 11, and pull out the collection component 40 through the second handle 41. Cover the second sealing plate 18 to complete the cleaning operation. The entire process does not require removing the iron remover, nor does it require employees to wear gloves and wipe the iron-containing impurities on the magnetic rod 21 by hand. Therefore, the operation is simple, the cleaning speed is faster, and the risk of human exposure is reduced, which is beneficial to protecting the health and safety of employees.

[0050] In summary, the iron separator of this application includes: a housing assembly, an iron removal assembly, and a scraping assembly. The housing assembly includes a shell with an inlet and an outlet. The iron removal assembly is mounted on the shell and includes multiple magnetic rods. The scraping assembly is mounted on the shell and includes a scraper and an elastic scraper. The scraper has a through hole through which the magnetic rods are inserted into the shell. The elastic scraper is arranged around the through hole and tightly fitted with the magnetic rods. The iron separator of this application has a scraping assembly on the housing assembly, and the magnetic rods of the iron removal assembly pass through the scraping assembly. Therefore, when the magnetic rods of the iron removal assembly need cleaning, simply pulling the iron removal assembly outwards allows the elastic scraper to remove iron-containing impurities from the magnetic rods, making the cleaning operation simple and quick, greatly shortening the cleaning time, and being more friendly to employee health.

[0051] The above are merely preferred embodiments of this application and are not intended to limit this application. Various modifications and variations can be made to this application by those skilled in the art. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this application should be included within the protection scope of this application.
