Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of substrate glass production technology, specifically to a heat insulation device for a linear actuator of a substrate glass cross-cutting machine. Background Technology

[0002] In modern glass manufacturing, especially for the production of high-performance substrate glass, the overflow process, as an advanced manufacturing technology, is widely used in display panels, photovoltaic energy, and semiconductor packaging due to its advantages in producing high-quality, low-defect, and high-flatness products. In this process, the substrate glass undergoes a series of precisely controlled melting, forming, and annealing steps before slowly flowing out of the annealing furnace to enter subsequent processing stages. At this crucial stage, precise cross-cutting of the still-hot substrate glass is a vital step in ensuring consistent product specifications and quality. The cross-cutting machine, as the core equipment in this stage, plays a crucial role in cutting and scribing with its cutter head and drive components, while the linear actuator, as a precision component driving the horizontal movement of the cutter head, is decisive for achieving efficient and accurate cross-cutting. However, in actual production, because the hot glass has just left the annealing furnace, its surface temperature is extremely high, and the relatively close distance to the actuator inevitably generates a strong thermal radiation effect. Simultaneously, the fine dust generated during the cutting process exacerbates the harsh environment in this area. This high-temperature, high-pollution working environment poses a severe challenge to the performance and lifespan of the actuator.

[0003] High temperatures first cause changes in the physical properties of the materials inside the linear actuator. For example, the coefficient of thermal expansion of metallic materials increases, leading to minute deformations in the actuator's structural components. While these deformations may seem insignificant, they are enough to affect the accuracy and stability of the entire motion system. Over time, this will directly result in a significant decline in machine performance and a shortened overall lifespan. Furthermore, high temperatures accelerate the aging of non-metallic components such as lubricants and sealing materials, further weakening the actuator's reliability and durability. Regarding thermal expansion, the irregular expansion of actuator components due to uneven heating not only increases friction and wear between moving parts but may also cause swaying and vibration in the mechanical system, severely impacting the accuracy and stability of the cutting operation. This is a significant issue that cannot be ignored in the production of high-end substrate glass, which requires micron-level processing precision. High temperatures also pose a significant threat to electrical components. Key electrical components such as proximity switches and photoelectric sensors are prone to performance degradation at high temperatures, such as reduced sensitivity, decreased insulation performance, or even direct damage. This can lead to frequent equipment malfunctions and may also cause short circuits, fires, and other safety accidents, seriously threatening the continuous and stable operation of the production line. At the same time, high-temperature environments accelerate the aging of electronic components, shorten their effective service life, and increase maintenance costs and downtime.

[0004] High temperatures promote the movement of dust, fine particles, and hot glass dust in the air. These contaminants easily adhere to the surface and interior of the actuator, forming a layer of dirt that is difficult to remove. This not only affects the actuator's heat dissipation efficiency but also exacerbates the wear of moving parts, reducing the system's operating efficiency and accuracy. More seriously, these contaminants may also penetrate into electrical components, causing short circuits, poor contact, and other malfunctions, further increasing the difficulty and cost of equipment maintenance.
