Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of glass production equipment technology, and in particular to a transition roller cleaning device and a glass production system. Background Technology

[0002] In the production process of float glass, the glass raw material is first fed into a melting furnace for melting. Then, after defoaming and clarification, the molten glass flows into a tin bath, floats on the surface of the molten tin, and is drawn into a glass substrate of a predetermined thickness by a drawing machine. This process is the core of float glass production technology, and its technological development path has evolved from traditional melting and forming to modern automated control and precise adjustment.

[0003] Currently, after the glass substrate is drawn out of the tin bath, it enters the annealing furnace via transition rollers for annealing treatment, and finally exits the annealing furnace for cutting and packaging. During this process, to remove contaminants such as tin oxide formed by the reaction of tin and oxygen in the tin bath, a certain amount of SO2 is introduced through an SO2 conduit inside the transition roller platform. A fixed graphite block supported by a spring is installed below the transition roller, and the contaminants are removed by scraping against the transition roller with the graphite block. This current technology reflects the application of transition roller cleaning technology in float glass production, aiming to maintain the cleanliness of the glass substrate and improve product quality.

[0004] However, when using float glass manufacturing technology, it is necessary to remove contaminants from the glass surface. However, during the removal of contaminants, due to the strong oxidizing environment of the production environment, the effect of the original elastic leaf spring-supported fixed graphite block decreases significantly after a period of use, requiring frequent replacement of the graphite block. This not only increases maintenance costs but may also lead to production interruptions. Utility Model Content

[0005] The main purpose of this invention is to propose a transition roller cleaning device and a glass production system, which aims to solve the technical problem that when removing contaminants, the effect of the fixed graphite block supported by the original elastic leaf spring is greatly reduced after a period of use due to the strong oxidizing environment of the production environment. This requires frequent replacement of the graphite block, which not only increases maintenance costs but may also lead to production interruption.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model proposes a transition roller scrubbing device, comprising:

[0007] A walking mechanism, wherein a mounting position is formed on the top of the walking mechanism;

[0008] An adjustment mechanism, wherein the adjustment mechanism is installed at the installation position, and the top of the adjustment mechanism has accommodating grooves distributed vertically at intervals; and,

[0009] A wiping component is movably mounted in the receiving groove, with its top extending upward to below the transition roller to be soldered. The wiping component can slide up and down relative to the adjusting mechanism in the receiving groove and wipes the transition roller during sliding.

[0010] In one embodiment, the adjusting mechanism includes:

[0011] A connecting block, wherein the connecting block is mounted at the mounting position, and the receiving groove is formed in the connecting block; and,

[0012] An elastic reset member is installed in the receiving groove and is capable of extending and retracting within the receiving groove. At least a portion of the wiping member extends into the receiving groove and contacts and engages with the elastic reset member. The elastic reset member is capable of driving the wiping member to move up and down along the receiving groove.

[0013] In one embodiment, the connecting block has two blocks, which are arranged opposite to each other and spaced apart, and the receiving groove is formed between the two connecting blocks.

[0014] In one embodiment, the top of the connecting block is formed with a blocking protrusion extending toward the receiving groove, and a receiving groove is formed between the two blocking protrusions, allowing the scrubbing member to pass through and communicating with the receiving groove. The bottom of the scrubbing member is formed with an anti-detachment protrusion, and the two blocking protrusions can block the anti-detachment protrusion on the corresponding side. The top of the scrubbing member can slide through the receiving groove.

[0015] In one embodiment, the connecting block is detachably connected to the walking mechanism.

[0016] In one embodiment, the walking mechanism includes:

[0017] The mounting beam is installed, and the top of the mounting beam forms the mounting position;

[0018] A traveling assembly is installed at the bottom of the mounting beam. The traveling assembly can drive the mounting beam to slide along the extension direction of the mounting beam, thereby driving the adjustment mechanism to travel.

[0019] In one embodiment, a handrail is provided on the mounting beam.

[0020] In one embodiment, the walking assembly includes a plurality of walking wheels, which are spaced apart at the bottom of the mounting beam along the extension direction of the mounting beam.

[0021] In one embodiment, a vacuum cleaner is mounted on the mounting beam, with the vacuum cleaner's nozzle located below the transition roller and facing the transition roller.

[0022] Based on the same technical concept, in a second aspect, this utility model also proposes a glass production system that applies the transition roller scrubbing device described in the first aspect.

[0023] This invention's technical solution involves a walking mechanism, an adjusting mechanism, and a wiping component. The walking mechanism has an installation position on its top, and the adjusting mechanism is installed at this position. The top of the adjusting mechanism has vertically spaced receiving grooves. The wiping component is movably installed within these grooves, with its top extending upwards to below the transition roller to be soldered. The wiping component can slide up and down relative to the adjusting mechanism within the receiving grooves, wiping the transition roller during this sliding motion. In use, the walking mechanism drives the adjusting mechanism and the wiping component movably installed within the receiving grooves of the adjusting mechanism, allowing the wiping component to slide relative to the receiving grooves and perform wiping operations on the transition roller. This enables the invention to clean the transition roller. Furthermore, during use, the wiping component experiences wear during wiping. An elastic reset component can drive the wiping component towards the transition roller under a reset action, thus extending the service life of the wiping component, eliminating the need for frequent graphite block replacements, reducing maintenance costs, and preventing production interruptions.

[0034] This utility model proposes a transition roller scrubbing device.

[0035] Please see Figures 1 to 3In one embodiment of the present invention, the transition roller cleaning device includes a traveling mechanism 100, an adjusting mechanism 200, and a cleaning component 300. The top of the traveling mechanism 100 has an installation position, the adjusting mechanism 200 is installed in the installation position, and the top of the adjusting mechanism 200 has a receiving groove 170 distributed vertically at intervals. The cleaning component 300 is movably installed in the receiving groove 170, and the top of the cleaning component 300 extends upward to below the transition roller 400 to be soldered. The cleaning component 300 can slide up and down in the receiving groove 170 relative to the adjusting mechanism 200, and cleans the transition roller 400 when sliding.

[0036] It should be specifically and clearly stated that, in this embodiment, the example scrubbing element 300 is made of soft metal, preferably copper or aluminum.

[0037] In this embodiment, by setting a walking mechanism 100, an adjusting mechanism 200, and a wiping component 300, the top of the walking mechanism 100 is formed with an installation position, the adjusting mechanism 200 is installed at the installation position, and the top of the adjusting mechanism 200 is formed with a receiving groove 170 distributed vertically at intervals. The wiping component 300 is movably installed in the receiving groove 170, and the top of the wiping component 300 extends upward to below the transition roller 400 to be soldered. The wiping component 300 can slide up and down relative to the adjusting mechanism 200 in the receiving groove 170, and wipes the transition roller 400 when sliding. This allows the present invention to use the walking mechanism 100 to drive the adjusting mechanism 200 and the wiping component 300 movably installed in the receiving groove 170 of the adjusting mechanism 200 to move, and the wiping component 300 can slide relative to the sliding receiving groove 170 so that the wiping component 300 can perform a wiping operation on the transition roller 400. This enables the present invention to perform the function of cleaning the transition roller 400. At the same time, during use, the wiping component 300 wears down during the wiping process of the transition roller 400. The elastic reset component 220 can drive the wiping component 300 to move toward the transition roller 400 under the reset action, thereby improving the service life of the wiping component 300. It eliminates the need for frequent replacement of graphite blocks, reduces maintenance costs, and avoids production interruptions.

[0038] In one embodiment, the adjustment mechanism 200 includes a connecting block 210 and an elastic reset member 220. The connecting block 210 is installed at the installation position, and a receiving groove 170 is formed in the connecting block 210. The elastic reset member 220 is installed in the receiving groove 170 and can extend and retract within the receiving groove 170. At least a portion of the scrubbing member 300 extends into the receiving groove 170 and contacts and engages with the elastic reset member 220. The elastic reset member 220 can drive the scrubbing member 300 to move up and down along the receiving groove 170.

[0039] In this embodiment, by setting a connecting block 210 and an elastic reset member 220, the elastic reset member 220 is installed in the receiving groove 170 during use, so that the wiping member 300 can slide along the receiving groove 170. This allows the present invention to achieve the function of driving the wiping member 300 to change position by utilizing the cooperation between the connecting block 210 and the elastic reset member 220 during use.

[0040] It should be specifically and clearly stated that, in this embodiment, the example elastic reset member 220 is preferably a reset spring.

[0041] It should be specifically and clearly stated that the connecting block 210 has two parts, at least two connecting blocks 210 are arranged opposite each other and spaced apart, and a receiving groove 170 is formed between the two connecting blocks 210. A blocking protrusion 211 extending toward the receiving groove 170 is formed on the top of the connecting block 210. A receiving groove is formed between the two blocking protrusions 211, allowing the scrubbing member 300 to pass through and communicating with the receiving groove 170. An anti-detachment protrusion 310 is formed on the bottom of the scrubbing member 300. The two blocking protrusions 211 can block the anti-detachment protrusion 310 on the corresponding side, and the top of the scrubbing member 300 can slide through the receiving groove. The connecting block 210 is detachably connected to the traveling mechanism 100.

[0042] It should be specifically and clearly stated that, in this embodiment, by setting two connecting blocks 210, the present invention can utilize the cooperation of the blocking protrusions 211 set on the two connecting blocks 210 and the anti-detachment protrusions 310 set on the wiping component 300 to prevent the wiping component 300 from falling out of the receiving groove 170, thereby improving the stability of the overall structure.

[0043] In some alternative embodiments, the walking mechanism 100 includes a mounting beam 110 and a walking assembly 120. The top of the mounting beam 110 forms a mounting position, and the walking assembly 120 is mounted on the bottom of the mounting beam 110. The walking assembly 120 can drive the mounting beam 110 to slide along the extension direction of the mounting beam 110, thereby driving the adjustment mechanism 200 to move.

[0044] It should be specifically and clearly stated that the walking assembly 120 includes a guide rail 130 and a sliding drive component 140. The guide rail 130 extends along the extension direction of the mounting beam 110. The sliding drive component 140 is mounted on the bottom of the mounting beam 110 and is slidably engaged with the guide rail 130. The sliding drive component 140 can slide along the guide rail 130 to drive the mounting beam 110 to slide along the guide rail 130.

[0045] In this embodiment, by setting the walking component 120 and the mounting beam 110, the present invention can, in use, utilize the cooperation of the walking component 120 and the mounting beam 110 to drive the adjustment mechanism 200 and the wiping component 300 mounted on the adjustment mechanism 200 to move.

[0046] In some other preferred embodiments, the walking assembly 120 includes a plurality of walking wheels 150, which are spaced apart at the bottom of the mounting beam 110 along the extension direction of the mounting beam 110.

[0047] In this embodiment, by setting multiple walking wheels 150, the invention improves the autonomy of walking.

[0048] In one embodiment, a handrail 160 is provided on the mounting beam 110.

[0049] In this embodiment, by providing a handrail 160, the present invention ensures walking stability during use.

[0050] A vacuum cleaner 180 is installed on the mounting beam 110. The vacuum cleaner 180 has its suction nozzle located below the transition roller and facing the transition roller.

[0051] In this embodiment, by providing a vacuum cleaner 180, the present invention can collect the debris that falls off the wiping component 300 during use.

[0052] Based on the same technical concept, in a second aspect, this utility model also proposes a glass production system that applies the tin-wiping device of the transition roller 400 in the first aspect.

[0053] This utility model also proposes a glass production system, which includes a transition roller 400 tin-wiping device.
