Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field, specifically to an integrated demolding and feeding device for water glass production. Background Technology

[0002] Water glass is an aqueous solution of sodium silicate or potassium silicate, and is an important inorganic chemical product. Depending on its modulus, water glass can be divided into neutral and alkaline types. It is typically a colorless, bluish-green, or brown viscous liquid, possessing properties such as adhesion, heat resistance, and acid resistance.

[0003] Traditional water glass production mainly employs two processes: the dry process and the wet process. The dry process involves mixing quartz sand and soda ash in a specific ratio, melting and reacting them at a high temperature of 1300-1400℃ to produce solid sodium silicate, which is then dissolved and concentrated to obtain liquid water glass. The wet process involves reacting caustic soda solution with quartz sand under pressure to directly produce liquid water glass. In the dry process, the molten material needs to undergo multiple steps, including cooling and molding, demolding, crushing, and dissolving.

[0004] A search revealed that Chinese patent document CN119387571A discloses an integrated equipment and process for removing and feeding water glass from investment casting. The equipment includes a support plate, a support column rotatably connected to the support plate, and a placement plate fixed to the top of the support column. Multiple mounting grooves are formed on the edge of the top surface of the placement plate, with a tray rotatably connected within each groove. A feeding mechanism is installed within each groove. The placement plate has a loading position, a pouring position, a cooling position, and a feeding position. A cooling mechanism is installed at the cooling position. The feeding mechanism includes a connecting rod hinged to the bottom surface of the tray and a movable plate movably mounted on the outer periphery of the support column via a reset component.

[0005] Existing demolding and feeding structures require repeated loading and unloading of the mold to ensure effective demolding. This cumbersome process, involving repeatedly loading and unloading the mold, negatively impacts the feeding efficiency of the water glass. Therefore, improving the feeding effect and efficiency of water glass is a pressing issue that needs to be addressed. Utility Model Content

[0024] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0025] Please see Figures 1-6This utility model discloses an integrated demolding and feeding device for water glass production, including a chain conveyor 1 and a collection box 3 located below one end of the chain conveyor 1. One end of the collection box 3 extends below the vibrating device. The device also includes: a base 4, which is arranged in a circumferential array along the chain conveyor 1. A mold 5 is connected to the base 4 via a mold locking device. The mold locking device includes an adjusting screw 16 and a connector. The adjusting screw 16 drives the connector to move, locking and limiting the mold 5. A vibrating device is located inside the chain conveyor 1 and is used to vibrate and feed the mold 5 after natural feeding. The vibrating device includes a driving component, a connecting plate 9, a striking column 12, and a guide component. The driving component causes the connecting plate 9 to move downwards, driving the striking column 12 to move downwards and strike the mold 5, achieving vibratory feeding. The guide component guides and connects the striking column 12. An air-cooling device 2 is located outside the chain conveyor 1 and is used to cool the material in the mold 5 on the chain conveyor 1.

[0026] Specifically, the adjusting screw 16 is rotatably mounted on one end of the mounting bracket 15, and the other end of the adjusting screw 16 extends to the outside of the base 4, and a rocker arm is fixed at this end. The adjusting screw 16 is threadedly connected to the base 4. The connector includes the mounting bracket 15, which is I-shaped. Insert rods 14 are respectively installed at both ends of the mounting bracket 15 on the side away from the adjusting screw 16. The connector is slidably disposed in the base 4. The bottom of the mold 5 has a rectangular array of connecting blocks 13, and the connecting blocks 13 have through holes adapted to the insert rods 14.

[0027] In this embodiment, the connecting block 13 is fixed to the bottom of the mold 5, and the insert rod 14 is fixed to the mounting frame 15. By shaking the rocker arm, the adjusting screw 16 rotates and is threadedly connected to the base 4, which drives the mounting frame 15 to move horizontally, so that the insert rod 14 can be inserted into the connecting block 13 or separated from the connecting block 13, thereby realizing the installation and disassembly of the mold 5. The structure is simple and convenient for disassembling and assembling the mold 5 according to the requirements.

[0028] Specifically, the vibrating device has a mounting plate 6 installed on top, which is located inside the chain conveyor 1; the driving component includes a motor 7 and a cam 8 installed at its output end, with the motor 7 mounted on the mounting plate 6 by screws; the connecting plate 9 includes a center plate, a support plate, and a protrusion, with the protrusion fixed to the top of the center plate and the support plate arranged in a ring around the outer periphery of the center plate, intermittently contacting the protrusion when the cam 8 rotates; the striking post 12 is fixed to the bottom of the support plate, with a silicone block at the lower end of the striking post 12; the guide component includes a guide rod 10 and a connecting spring 11 sleeved on its outside, with the guide rod 10 fixed to the bottom of the mounting plate 6 and passing through the support plate, and the connecting spring 11 fixed between the mounting plate 6 and the support plate.

[0029] In this embodiment, when the mold 5 moves below the vibrating device, the chain conveyor 1 pauses, the motor 7 drives the cam 8 to rotate, and the cam 8 gradually squeezes the convex part during rotation. Under the limiting guidance of the guide rod 10, the center plate and the support plate move down, the connecting spring 11 is stretched, and the silicone block at the bottom of the striking column 12 strikes the mold 5. As the cam 8 continues to rotate, the silicone block intermittently strikes the mold 5, realizing the striking vibration of the mold 5 and improving the material feeding effect.

[0030] The working principle and usage process of this utility model are as follows: During use, the chain conveyor device 1 operates to transport multiple molds 5 on it. The molds 5 are fed from the end of the chain conveyor device 1 away from the collection box 3. As the chain conveyor device 1 transports the molds 5, the molds 5 are accelerated to cool and solidify by the air cooling device 2, and then transported to the other end of the chain conveyor device 1. As the molds 5 rotate and tilt downward, the material in the molds 5 is first discharged naturally under the action of gravity. Then the molds 5 move to the bottom of the vibrating device, and the motor 7 drives the cam 8 to rotate. During the rotation, the protruding part of the cam 8 is gradually squeezed. Under the limiting guidance of the guide rod 10, the center plate and the support plate move down, the connecting spring 11 is stretched, and the silicone block at the bottom of the striking column 12 strikes the molds 5. As the cam 8 continues to rotate, the silicone block intermittently strikes the molds 5, and the striking vibration of the molds 5 causes the remaining material in the molds 5 to be discharged. The material discharged in both instances falls into the collection box 3.
