Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of glass plate cooling technology, and in particular to a glass plate uniform cooling device. Background Technology
[0002] Uniform cooling equipment for glass plates plays a vital role in industrial production, especially in the field of glass manufacturing and processing. During the manufacturing process, glass undergoes high-temperature melting and shaping, and the cooling process has a significant impact on the mechanical properties, optical characteristics, and appearance quality of the final product.
[0003] Existing technologies typically employ atomizing cooling devices to cool glass plates. These devices include two sets of cooling components, symmetrically positioned above the upper surface and below the lower surface of the glass plate's edge. Each set of cooling components includes an atomizing cooling water pipe, a fixing plate, and a baffle. The atomizing cooling water outlet of the atomizing cooling water pipe passes through the fixing plate, and a baffle is connected to the outer periphery of the bottom of the fixing plate.
[0004] Cooling is achieved through atomized cooling, with no direct contact between the device and the edge of the glass plate. This avoids uneven cooling areas caused by the glass plate vibrating on the conveyor rollers, as well as wear and tear on the cooling device caused by friction. At the same time, the cooling medium is atomized cooling water, which prevents watermarks from forming on the surface of the glass plate.
[0005] However, existing glass plate cooling equipment makes it difficult to center the glass plate during transport, which can affect the uniformity of cooling. In addition, some cooling devices are not flexible enough to adjust the spray angle according to the width of the glass plate when spraying water, so improvements are needed. Utility Model Content
[0006] To improve the uniformity of glass plate cooling, this application provides a glass plate uniform cooling device.
[0007] The glass plate uniform cooling device provided in this application adopts the following technical solution:
[0008] A glass plate uniform cooling device includes a roller conveyor belt. Support plates are fixed on both sides of the top end of the roller conveyor belt. A water pipe is provided on the top end of the support plate through a limiting plate. A mist nozzle is installed on the surface of the water pipe. A connecting column is fixedly sleeved on the surface of the water pipe. A fixing column is hinged to the bottom end of the connecting column. A first electric push rod is installed at the bottom end of the fixing column.
[0009] The bottom end of the roller conveyor belt is fixed with a fixed plate, and a second electric push rod is installed on both sides of the fixed plate. A vertical plate is fixed to the piston end of the second electric push rod, and a movable plate is fixed to the top of the vertical plate. A sliding groove is opened at the top of the movable plate, and a cylinder is slidably inserted in the sliding groove. A square block is fixed to the bottom end of the cylinder. Fixed round rods are movably inserted on both sides of the square block. Sliding plates are fixed on both sides of the movable plate.
[0010] By adopting the above technical solution, the glass plate is placed above the roller conveyor belt for transportation and movement. Two sets of second electric push rods are activated according to the width of the glass plate. The piston ends of the second electric push rods simultaneously push the vertical plate forward and backward. When the output ends of the two sets of second electric push rods move forward simultaneously, they push the vertical plate and the moving plate forward together. Then, the two sets of moving plates move to both sides simultaneously. The movement of the moving plates causes the sliding plate to slide to both sides in the roller conveyor belt, finally pushing the cylinder in the chute to move to both sides. The distance between each pair of cylinders increases, and the movement of the cylinder causes the fixed cylindrical rod to slide to both sides on the surface of the square block. When the piston end of the second electric push rod retracts, the cylinder similarly moves towards the center. This movement of the cylinder allows the glass plate to be transported in the center.
[0011] Optionally, the connecting post is configured as a "U" shape, and two sets of connecting posts are symmetrically arranged.
[0012] By adopting the above technical solutions, the stability of movement is increased and the safety of use is improved.
[0013] Optionally, multiple sets of mist nozzles are provided, and the multiple sets of mist nozzles are symmetrically and equidistantly distributed on both sides of the top of the roller conveyor belt.
[0014] By adopting the above technical solution, the sprayed water mist can cover the entire glass plate.
[0015] Optionally, the length of the movable plate is greater than the length of the square block, and a gap is left between the vertical plate and the fixed round rod and the square block.
[0016] By adopting the above technical solutions, the possibility of collisions and friction can be reduced.
[0017] Optionally, the slide is inclined, with each pair of slides being mirror-symmetrically distributed, and the diameter of the slide is adapted to the diameter of the cylinder.
[0018] By adopting the above technical solution, it can be applied to glass plates of different diameters, thus improving applicability.
[0019] Optionally, the diameter of the top end of the cylinder is larger than the diameter of its bottom end, the larger diameter end of the cylinder is made of rubber, and the cylinder passes through one end of the roller conveyor belt and extends to the top end of the roller conveyor belt.
[0020] By adopting the above technical solution, the rubber material has the property of being soft, which reduces friction on the glass surface and protects the glass surface.
[0021] Optionally, multiple sets of sliding plates are symmetrically arranged, and the multiple sets of sliding plates are slidably engaged with one end of the bottom of the roller conveyor belt.
[0022] By adopting the above technical solutions, the possibility of offset and displacement can be reduced.
[0023] Optionally, the fixed round rod is fixed to the bottom end of the roller conveyor belt by a limiting plate, and square blocks are movably sleeved on both sides of the surface of every two sets of fixed round rods.
[0024] By adopting the above technical solutions, the service life can be extended.
[0025] In summary, this application includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects:
[0026] By using connecting columns, water pipes, mist nozzles, fixed columns, and support plates in combination, it is possible to center glass panels of different widths during transport. This adapts to glass panels of different widths and allows glass panels of different specifications to be centered, improving the versatility of the equipment and the flexibility of the production line. At the same time, it makes the stress distribution of the glass panels more uniform during the cooling process, reducing warping and deformation caused by uneven cooling, and also reducing the risk of the glass panels breaking due to stress concentration during the cooling process.
[0027] By using a combination of movable plates, chutes, cylinders, fixed round rods, and square blocks, the water spray angle can be adjusted. The equipment can be flexibly adjusted according to glass plates of different thicknesses and materials, improving the equipment's versatility and production efficiency. It also allows the water to evenly cover the surface of the glass plate, reducing localized overcooling or overheating caused by concentrated water flow, thus achieving a more uniform cooling effect. This results in a more reasonable temperature distribution on the surface and inside of the glass during the cooling process, improving the overall quality and performance of the glass.

Detailed Implementation
[0034] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figure 1-5 This application will be described in further detail.
[0035] This application discloses a glass plate uniform cooling device. (Refer to...) Figure 1 A uniform cooling device for glass plates includes a roller conveyor belt 1, which is a segment of a whole. Support plates 15 are fixed to both sides of the top end of the roller conveyor belt 1, and water pipes 4 are installed on the top of the support plates 15 via limiting plates. Atomizing nozzles 5 are mounted on the surface of the water pipes 4. Multiple sets of atomizing nozzles 5 are symmetrically and equidistantly distributed on both sides of the top end of the roller conveyor belt 1. This multiple arrangement allows for wide-area cooling, reduces the existence of cooling dead zones, and shortens the cooling time.
[0036] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 3 The surface of the water pipe 4 is fixedly fitted with a connecting post 3. The connecting post 3 is set in a "U" shape, and two sets of connecting posts 3 are symmetrically arranged. The bottom end of the connecting post 3 is hinged to a fixing post 6. The bottom end of the fixing post 6 is equipped with a first electric push rod 2, which is convenient to adjust according to the usage requirements of different angles and improves the flexibility of use.
[0037] Reference Figure 4 The bottom end of the roller conveyor belt 1 is fixed with a fixed plate 7, and a second electric push rod 8 is installed on both sides of the fixed plate 7. A vertical plate 16 is fixed to the piston end of the second electric push rod 8, and a movable plate 9 is fixed to the top of the vertical plate 16. The length of the movable plate 9 is greater than the length of the square block 14. A gap is left between the vertical plate 16 and the fixed round rod 13 and the square block 14 to reduce the occurrence of collisions during use and to protect the various parts.
[0038] Both the first electric push rod 2 and the second electric push rod 8 can move in both directions. The roller conveyor belt 1, the first electric push rod 2 and the second electric push rod 8 used in this application are products that can be purchased directly from the market. Their principles and connection methods are existing technologies well known to those skilled in the art, so they will not be described in detail here.
[0039] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 4 The top of the movable plate 9 has a sliding groove 10, which is inclined. Two sets of sliding grooves 10 are mirror-symmetrically distributed, and the diameter of the sliding groove 10 matches the diameter of the cylinder 11. A cylinder 11 is slidably inserted into the sliding groove 10, and a square block 14 is fixed to the bottom of the cylinder 11. The diameter of the top of the cylinder 11 is larger than the diameter of its bottom, and the larger diameter end of the cylinder 11 is made of rubber. The cylinder 11 passes through one end of the roller conveyor belt 1 and extends to the top of the roller conveyor belt 1. The movement of the sliding groove 10 moves the positions of the two sets of cylinders 11, allowing for centering of glass plates of different widths.
[0040] Initially, the electric push rods 8 control the cylinders 11 to move away from each other, with the cylinders 11 close to the support plates 15 on both sides. When the roller conveyor belt 1 moves the glass plate on it, the glass plate can pass through the space between the cylinders 11 without affecting its movement. When the glass plate moves to the cooling station between the four cylinders 11, the roller conveyor belt 1 stops. At this time, the two electric push rods 8 retract simultaneously, controlling the cylinders 11 to move closer to each other. The sidewalls of the cylinders 11 abut against the sidewalls of the glass plate, pushing the glass plate to slide on the roller conveyor belt 1, thus achieving the alignment and positioning of the glass plate. It should be noted that the gap between adjacent rollers of the roller conveyor belt 1 is sufficient for the cylinders 11 to move.
[0041] Reference Figure 5 Fixed round rods 13 are movably inserted on both sides of the square block 14, and sliding plates 12 are fixed on both sides of the movable plate 9. The fixed round rods 13 are fixed to the bottom end of the roller conveyor belt 1 by limiting plates. Square blocks 14 are movably sleeved on both sides of the surface of every two sets of fixed round rods 13. As the cylinder 11 moves, it drives the square blocks 14 to move. The square blocks 14 slide left and right on the surface of the fixed round rods 13, allowing the cylinder 11 to move smoothly back and forth, improving the stability of use.
[0042] Reference Figure 5 Multiple sets of sliding plates 12 are symmetrically arranged. The multiple sets of sliding plates 12 are slidably engaged with one end of the bottom of the roller conveyor belt 1. As the slide groove 10 moves, it drives the sliding plates 12 to move. The sliding plates 12 move back and forth in the roller conveyor belt 1, which limits the direction of movement of the sliding plates 12.
[0043] The implementation principle of the uniform cooling device for a glass plate according to this application embodiment is as follows: The glass plate is placed above the roller conveyor belt 1 for transportation and movement. Two sets of second electric push rods 8 are activated according to the width of the glass plate. The piston ends of the second electric push rods 8 simultaneously push the vertical plate 16 forward and backward. When the output ends of the two sets of second electric push rods 8 move forward simultaneously, they push the vertical plate 16 and the moving plate 9 forward together. Then, the two sets of moving plates 9 move to both sides simultaneously. The movement of the moving plates 9 causes the sliding plate 12 to slide to both sides in the roller conveyor belt 1, finally pushing the cylinder 11 in the slide groove 10 to move to both sides. The distance between each pair of cylinders 11 increases. The movement of the cylinders 11 causes the fixed rod 13 to slide to both sides on the surface of the square block 14. When the piston end of the second electric push rod 8 retracts, the cylinder 11 similarly moves towards the center. The movement of the cylinder 11 allows the glass plate to be transported in the center.
[0044] When the spray angle needs to be adjusted, the two sets of first electric push rods 2 are activated. The piston end of the first electric push rod 2 moves up and down, driving the fixed column 6 to move up and down simultaneously. The movement of the fixed column 6 drives the hinged connecting column 3 to move up and down and rotate. Then, the movement of the connecting column 3 drives the water pipe 4 to rotate. The rotation of the water pipe 4 drives the use angle of multiple sets of mist nozzles 5 to change. Finally, the water flows out in a mist form along the multiple sets of mist nozzles 5 and sprays onto the top of the glass plate for cooling.
[0045] The above are all preferred embodiments of this application, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this application. Therefore, all equivalent changes made in accordance with the structure, shape and principle of this application should be covered within the scope of protection of this application.
