Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of waste heat utilization in glass bottle production, and in particular to a waste heat utilization device for glass bottle production. Background Technology

[0002] Glass bottles are a traditional beverage packaging container in my country. Glass is also a packaging material with a long history. Despite the influx of many other packaging materials into the market, glass containers still occupy an important position in beverage packaging. This is inseparable from its packaging characteristics that cannot be replaced by other packaging materials.

[0003] During the production of glass bottles, the formed glass bottles need to be cooled. Currently, air cooling is commonly used for this process. In this cooling process, a chain conveyor is usually used to continuously transport the formed glass bottles to the air cooling zone for further cooling.

[0004] During the process of conveying formed glass bottles by the chain conveyor, the surface temperature of the glass bottles is still relatively high, and there is still residual heat on the glass bottles. This residual heat cannot be utilized during the conveying process and is directly dissipated, resulting in the waste of the residual heat resources of the glass bottles. Utility Model Content

[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model provides a waste heat recovery device for glass bottle production that can recover and utilize the waste heat of glass bottles, thereby avoiding the waste of waste heat resources of glass bottles.

[0006] Technical solution

[0007] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a waste heat recovery device for glass bottle production, comprising a chain conveyor and a waste heat recovery assembly. The waste heat recovery assembly includes a U-shaped insulated shell and a water storage tank. The U-shaped insulated shell is fixedly installed at the top of the chain conveyor. Support plates are fixedly connected to the right sides of both the front and rear ends of the U-shaped insulated shell. A fan is fixedly installed on the right side of both sets of support plates. Heat absorption ports are opened at both the front and rear ends of the U-shaped insulated shell. A suction hood is fixedly connected to both sets of heat absorption ports. An L-shaped exhaust duct is provided, with its output end fixedly connected to the input end of the exhaust fan. The water storage tank is located below the chain conveyor on the right side. A U-shaped waste heat recovery pipe is fixedly installed through the water storage tank, with its input ends on both sides fixedly connected to the output ends of two sets of exhaust fans. Multiple L-shaped exhaust pipes are equidistantly connected to the U-shaped waste heat recovery pipe, and evenly spaced flow equalization holes are opened on the vertical outer wall of the L-shaped exhaust pipe. A water injection pipe is connected to the upper right side of the water storage tank, and a drain pipe is connected to the lower right side of the water storage tank. A valve is installed on the drain pipe.

[0008] Preferably, multiple sets of guide pipes are provided at equal intervals between the two sets of L-shaped exhaust pipes and the outer side of the suction hood, and multiple sets of flow equalization pipes are provided at equal intervals at the bottom of the multiple sets of L-shaped exhaust pipes, with flow equalization holes evenly opened on the outer wall of each set of flow equalization pipes.

[0009] Preferably, multiple sets of corrugated fins are fixedly connected at equal intervals between the upper and lower ends of the inner sides of the two sets of suction hoods.

[0010] Preferably, the water storage tank has a groove on the right end, in which a thermometer is fixedly installed.

[0011] Preferably, a vent is provided at the upper left corner of the front end of the water tank, and a silicone plug is fixedly connected to the front end of the water tank, with the silicone plug located below the vent.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: In use, an appropriate amount of water is added to the water storage tank through the water injection pipe. When the glass bottle is transported by the chain conveyor, the cover buckle of the U-shaped heat-insulating shell can prevent the waste heat from dissipating too quickly. By starting the exhaust fan, the exhaust fan draws air through the L-shaped exhaust pipe and the suction hood, thereby drawing the waste heat emitted by the glass bottle into the L-shaped exhaust pipe, and then transporting it to the U-shaped waste heat recovery pipe. Then, it is input into the L-shaped exhaust pipe through the U-shaped waste heat recovery pipe. Through the flow equalization hole on the L-shaped exhaust pipe, the airflow with waste heat is evenly filled into the water, and the waste heat is used to heat the water. After the water is heated, the heated water can be discharged through the drain pipe by opening the valve for use, so that the waste heat of the glass bottle can be recovered and utilized, thus avoiding the waste of the waste heat resources of the glass bottle.

[0020] The specific embodiments of this utility model will be described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and examples. The following examples are used to illustrate this utility model, but are not intended to limit its scope.

[0021] Example

[0022] Please see Figures 1-5 This utility model discloses a waste heat recovery device for glass bottle production, comprising a chain conveyor 1, a U-shaped insulated shell 2, and a water storage tank 8. The U-shaped insulated shell 2 is fixedly installed at the top of the chain conveyor 1. Support plates 3 are fixedly connected to the right side of both the front and rear ends of the U-shaped insulated shell 2. Exhaust fans 4 are fixedly installed on the right side of both sets of support plates 3. Heat absorption ports are opened at both the front and rear ends of the U-shaped insulated shell 2. Suction hoods 5 are fixedly connected to both sets of heat absorption ports. L-shaped exhaust fans are fixedly connected to the suction hoods 5. Pipe 6, the output end of L-shaped exhaust pipe 6 is fixedly connected to the input end of exhaust fan 4. Water storage tank 8 is placed below the chain conveyor 1 on the right. A U-shaped waste heat recovery pipe 9 is fixedly installed through the water storage tank 8. The input ends of the U-shaped waste heat recovery pipe 9 are fixedly connected to the output ends of two sets of exhaust fans 4 respectively. Multiple sets of L-shaped air outlet pipes 10 are connected at equal intervals on the U-shaped waste heat recovery pipe 9. The vertical outer wall of the L-shaped air outlet pipes 10 is evenly provided with flow equalization holes. A water injection pipe 1 is connected to the upper right side of the water storage tank 8. 2. A drain pipe 13 is connected to the lower right side of the water storage tank 8, and a valve 14 is installed on the drain pipe 13. In use, an appropriate amount of water is added to the water storage tank 8 through the water injection pipe 12. When the glass bottles are transported by the chain conveyor 1, the U-shaped heat-insulating shell 2 can prevent the residual heat from dissipating too quickly. By starting the exhaust fan 4, the exhaust fan 4 draws air through the L-shaped exhaust pipe 6 and the suction hood 5, thereby drawing the residual heat emitted by the glass bottles into the L-shaped exhaust pipe 6, and then transporting it to the U-shaped... The waste heat is then fed into the L-shaped air outlet pipe 10 through the U-shaped waste heat recovery pipe 9. The airflow carrying waste heat is evenly injected into the water through the equalization hole on the L-shaped air outlet pipe 10, and the waste heat is used to heat the water. After the water is heated, the heated water can be discharged through the drain pipe 13 by opening the valve 14, so that the waste heat of the glass bottle can be recovered and utilized, thus avoiding the waste of the waste heat resources of the glass bottle.

[0023] Multiple sets of guide pipes 7 are evenly spaced between the two sets of L-shaped exhaust pipes 6 and the outer side of the exhaust hood 5. Multiple sets of flow equalization pipes 11 are evenly spaced at the bottom of the multiple sets of L-shaped exhaust pipes 10. Flow equalization holes are evenly opened on the outer wall of each flow equalization pipe 11. When absorbing waste heat, the guide pipes 7 can effectively expand the suction range, absorb more waste heat, and improve the waste heat absorption efficiency. After the waste heat is transported to the L-shaped exhaust pipe 10 through the U-shaped waste heat recovery pipe 9, it is diverted to the multiple sets of flow equalization pipes 11 through the L-shaped exhaust pipe 10. Then, through the flow equalization holes on the multiple sets of flow equalization pipes 11, the waste heat is more evenly injected into the water, improving the utilization rate of waste heat.

[0024] Multiple sets of corrugated fins 19 are fixedly connected at equal intervals between the upper and lower ends of the inner sides of the two sets of suction hoods 5. When the chain conveyor 1 is conveying the glass bottle, after the glass bottle enters the U-shaped heat preservation shell 2, the corrugated fins 19 can absorb the residual heat on the glass bottle, so that the heat is temporarily stored on the corrugated fins 19, reducing the loss of residual heat, thereby further improving the absorption efficiency of residual heat.

[0025] The water storage tank 8 has a groove on its right end, in which a thermometer 15 is fixedly installed. By setting the thermometer 15, the temperature of the water in the water storage tank 8 can be measured, which makes it convenient for staff to observe the temperature of the water in the water storage tank 8 and to discharge the water in a timely manner according to the water temperature.

[0026] A vent 17 is provided at the upper left corner of the front end of the water tank 8. A silicone plug 16 is fixedly connected to the front end of the water tank 8, and the silicone plug 16 is located below the vent 17. By setting the silicone plug 16 and the vent 17, when in use, the silicone plug 16 is initially placed on the vent 17. After the airflow with residual heat is filled into the water, the residual heat is absorbed by the water, and the gas is discharged through the water injection pipe 12. If necessary, the silicone plug 16 can be pulled out from the vent 17 to promote the discharge of gas.

[0027] A pull ring 18 is fixedly connected to the side of the silicone plug 16 away from the vent hole 17; by setting the pull ring 18, the silicone plug 16 can be pulled out more conveniently.

[0028] This utility model discloses a waste heat recovery device for glass bottle production. Its working principle is as follows: During use, an appropriate amount of water is added to the water storage tank 8 through the water injection pipe 12. When the glass bottles are conveyed by the chain conveyor 1, the U-shaped insulated outer shell 2 prevents excessive heat loss. Furthermore, after the glass bottles enter the U-shaped insulated outer shell 2, the corrugated fins 19 absorb the waste heat from the glass bottles, temporarily storing the heat on the fins, further reducing heat loss. The exhaust fan 4 is activated, and the exhaust fan 4 draws air through the L-shaped exhaust pipe 6 and the suction hood 5. The air can be drawn through the guide pipe 7. The system effectively expands the suction range, absorbing more waste heat. This allows the waste heat emitted from the glass bottle to be drawn into the L-shaped exhaust pipe 6 and then transported to the U-shaped waste heat recovery pipe 9. From there, it is fed into the L-shaped exhaust pipe 10, where it is distributed to multiple sets of equalization pipes 11. The waste heat is then evenly distributed into the water through the equalization holes on the L-shaped exhaust pipe 10 and the multiple sets of equalization pipes 11. This waste heat is used to heat the water, raising its temperature. Once heated, the water can be drained through the drain pipe 13 by opening the valve 14, thus recovering and utilizing the waste heat from the glass bottle.

[0029] The waste heat recovery device for glass bottle production of this utility model has common mechanical installation, connection and setting methods, and can be implemented as long as it can achieve its beneficial effect. The exhaust fan 4, valve 14 and thermometer 15 of the waste heat recovery device for glass bottle production of this utility model are purchased from the market. Technical personnel in this industry only need to install and operate it according to the accompanying instruction manual. In addition, the chain plate conveyor 1 is a well-known prior art. Its structure and working principle are well known to those skilled in the art, so it will not be described in detail here.

[0030] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model. It should be noted that for those skilled in the art, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the technical principles of the present utility model, and these improvements and modifications should also be considered within the protection scope of the present utility model.
