Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of glass tube production technology, and in particular to a rapid curing device for borosilicate glass tubes. Background Technology

[0002] Borosilicate glass tubes are mainly composed of silicon dioxide, boron oxide, and a small amount of alkali metal oxides. They are known for their excellent chemical and thermal stability, and are therefore widely used in laboratory equipment (such as test tubes and flasks), pharmaceutical packaging (such as vaccine vials), lamps, and solar collectors. They are also an ideal material for precision instruments and special containers.

[0003] In the production process, when manufacturing long borosilicate glass tubes, natural cooling is typically used for final shaping and curing due to length limitations. However, this method not only requires a sufficiently long conveyor frame to accommodate the cooling process but also results in low overall curing efficiency. Therefore, to address this issue, it is necessary to propose a rapid curing device for borosilicate glass tubes, aiming to shorten the production cycle, improve efficiency, and reduce space requirements. Utility Model Content

[0004] In order to overcome the shortcomings of the existing technology, this utility model provides a rapid curing device for borosilicate glass tubes, which shortens the production cycle, improves efficiency and reduces space requirements.

[0005] The technical implementation scheme of this utility model is as follows: a rapid solidification device for borosilicate glass tubes, comprising a bracket, a mounting frame, support wheels, fixing blocks, air guide pipes, air outlet pipes, and a fan. The mounting frame is provided on the top of the bracket. Support wheels are arranged in a rotatable pattern between the two sides of the mounting frame to guide and support the movement of the glass tube. A fan is installed at the bottom of the mounting frame. A set of fixing blocks is provided on both sides of the mounting frame. The fixing blocks on both sides are arranged in a front-to-back spacing pattern, and air guide pipes are provided between the fixing blocks on the same side. The ends of the air guide pipes on both sides are connected to the air outlets of the fan. Multiple sets of air outlet pipes are arranged in a uniformly spaced pattern on the air guide pipes. The air outlet pipes are all inclined backward, and each set of air outlet pipes is placed between the intervals of each support wheel so that the airflow discharged from the air outlet pipes can flow smoothly to the surface of the glass tube.

[0006] Furthermore, it is particularly preferred that the mounting frame also includes a connecting sleeve, a guide frame, a clamping plate, and an elastic element. A connecting sleeve is provided on each side of one end of the mounting frame, and a guide frame is provided on each side of the other end of the mounting frame. A clamping plate is symmetrically slidably arranged on the guide frame, and an elastic element sleeved on the corresponding guide frame is provided between the two clamping plates on the same side. The clamping plate engages with the adjacent connecting sleeve on the same side.

[0007] Furthermore, it is particularly preferred that the bracket also includes pulleys, with pulleys provided on both sides of the bracket.

[0008] Furthermore, it is particularly preferred that the end of the card plate that engages with the connecting sleeve is beveled, so that the card plate can be easily inserted into the connecting sleeve.

[0009] Furthermore, it is particularly preferred that the rotating body of the support wheel is rotatably connected to its mounting base via a bearing, and that the inner surface of the rotating body of each support wheel is a slope inclined inward, which is suitable for attaching to and stabilizing the movement of the glass tube.

[0010] Furthermore, it is particularly preferred that the bracket and the mounting frame are integrated into one unit.

[0011] Beneficial effects: 1. By rationally arranging the support wheels and air outlet pipes, this utility model significantly reduces the required cooling distance compared to the traditional natural cooling method. This not only reduces the space requirements of the production site, but also effectively accelerates the solidification process of the borosilicate glass tube, greatly shortens the production cycle, and improves the overall efficiency of the production line.

[0012] 2. Considering the flexibility of production, this utility model allows multiple devices to be easily connected in series through components such as connecting sleeves, guide frames, clamping plates, and elastic elements, to meet the production needs of glass tubes of different lengths, thereby enhancing the adaptability and expandability of the device.

Detailed Implementation

[0018] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments and accompanying drawings. It should be understood that these descriptions are merely exemplary and not intended to limit the scope of this utility model. Furthermore, descriptions of well-known structures and technologies are omitted in the following description to avoid unnecessarily obscuring the concept of this utility model.

[0019] Example: A rapid curing device for borosilicate glass tubes, such as... Figures 1-3 As shown, the device includes a bracket 1, a mounting frame 2, support wheels 3, a fixing block 4, an air duct 5, an air outlet duct 6, and a fan 7. The mounting frame 2 is fixedly mounted on the top of the bracket 1. The bracket 1 and the mounting frame 2 are integrated, making the connection and assembly between them more stable and secure, thus ensuring the smoothness and continuity of the subsequent device operation. Support wheels 3 are arranged in a rotatable pattern on the left and right sides of the mounting frame 2 to guide and support the movement of the glass tube. The rotating body of the support wheel 3 is rotatably connected to its mounting base through bearings, making the rotation of the support wheel 3 smoother and ensuring the stable transport of the glass tube placed on it. Furthermore, the inner surface of the rotating body of each support wheel 3 is inclined inward, so that when the glass tube is embedded in the middle of the support wheel 3, the slope on both sides can prevent the glass tube from deviating, thus ensuring the overall fit during transportation. The system is stable in movement. A fan 7 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the mounting frame 2, which generates airflow. A set of fixing blocks 4 are fixedly installed on the left and right sides of the mounting frame 2. The fixing blocks 4 on both sides are arranged in a front-to-back interval, and an air guide pipe 5 is set between two fixing blocks 4 on the same side. The air guide pipe 5 extends front and back, and the ends of the air guide pipes 5 on both sides are connected to the air outlet of the fan 7. Multiple sets of air outlet pipes 6, which are matched with the number of support wheels 3, are evenly spaced on the air guide pipes 5. The air outlet pipes 6 are all inclined backward, and each set of air outlet pipes 6 is placed between the intervals of each support wheel 3, ensuring that the airflow can smoothly blow onto the surface of the moving glass tube, accelerate the cooling process, and achieve a rapid solidification effect. For the production of long pipes, this can not only significantly improve the overall operating efficiency and reduce the production cycle, but also reduce the space requirements caused by long equipment.

[0020] like Figure 4As shown, it also includes a connecting sleeve 8, a guide frame 9, a clamping plate 10, and an elastic element 11. A connecting sleeve 8 is fixedly installed on the left and right sides of the rear end of the mounting frame 2. The connecting sleeve 8 is hollow. A guide frame 9 is fixedly installed on the left and right sides of the front end of the mounting frame 2. The guide frame 9 is arranged longitudinally. A clamping plate 10 is symmetrically slidably installed on the guide frame 9. The clamping plate 10 can slide up and down along the guide frame 9. An elastic element 11 is provided between the two clamping plates 10 on the same side and sleeved on the corresponding guide frame 9. In this embodiment, the elastic element 11 is a spring. The clamping plate 10 engages with the adjacent connecting sleeve 8 on the same side. The elastic element 11 can provide elastic support for the clamping plate 10, so that the clamping plate 10 can contact the connecting sleeve 8 tightly. The end of the clamping plate 10 that engages with the connecting sleeve 8 is inclined 13 so that the clamping plate 10 can be easily inserted into the connecting sleeve 8.

[0021] like Figure 2 As shown, it also includes pulleys 12, with pulleys 12 respectively provided on both sides of the bracket 1 to increase the mobility of the device.

[0022] When using this device, the heated and shaped borosilicate glass tube must first be introduced from one end of the device. After starting the device, each support wheel 3 begins to rotate, allowing the glass tube to lie flat on these support wheels 3 and move smoothly along the inside of the device. Subsequently, the blower 7 starts, blowing cold air evenly onto the surface of the glass tube through the air guide duct 5 and the air outlet duct 6. The air outlet duct 6 is designed to be inclined backward and spaced apart, which not only ensures the smooth movement of the glass tube but also ensures that the cold air can effectively cover the surface of the glass tube, promoting rapid and uniform cooling and achieving the purpose of rapid shaping. Considering the requirements for the length of the production pipeline, this device supports the series use of two or more devices. When it is necessary to connect two devices, simply align the sides with the clamping plate 10 and the connecting sleeve 8. With the pushing action, the clamping plate 10 contacts the connecting sleeve 8, and under the action of the inclined surface 13, the clamping plate 10 slides on the guide frame 9, while the elastic element 11 deforms. Once the clamping plate 10 passes smoothly through the connecting sleeve 8, its end will automatically snap into the connecting sleeve 8. At this time, the elastic element 11 returns to its original state, causing the clamping plate 10 to fit tightly against the connecting sleeve 8. Finally, through the combined action of the clamping plates 10 on both sides, the ends of the two devices are securely connected, maintaining the stability and reliability of the connection.
