[0041] To explain in detail the technical content, objectives, and effects of this utility model, the following description is provided in conjunction with the embodiments and accompanying drawings.

[0042] During glass production, the refractory materials on the furnace sidewalls need to be replaced periodically to ensure their overall thermal insulation and protective performance. The replaced refractory materials are still quite hot and need to be stored on one side of the furnace to cool down. They can only be moved once their temperature has decreased to a level suitable for transport. Currently, the stored refractory materials occupy workshop space without protective devices, and the high temperature poses a risk of burns to production personnel if they accidentally touch them.

[0043] Based on this, this application proposes a furnace sidewall refractory cooling device, such as... Figures 1 to 6As shown, it includes a protective box 1, an air inlet assembly 2, and an air outlet assembly 3; the protective box 1 is provided with a door 4, and the protective box 1 is provided with a refractory material storage chamber 5; the refractory material storage chamber 5 is provided with an air inlet 15 and an air outlet 16 on two opposite side walls; the air inlet 15 is connected to the air inlet assembly 2, and the air outlet assembly 3 is provided on the air outlet 16.

[0044] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the device can be placed near the location of the furnace; when in use, the replaced refractory is placed in the refractory storage chamber 5 of the protective box 1 to avoid accidental contact by other personnel; the air inlet component 2 and the air outlet component 3 work together to form a flow channel through the refractory in the refractory storage chamber 5, and rely on air cooling to quickly cool the refractory.

[0045] like Figure 3 As shown, the air inlet assembly 2 includes an air inlet pipe 21 and a branch pipe 22; the inlet of the branch pipe 22 is connected to the air inlet pipe 21; at least two evenly distributed air inlets 15 are provided on the side wall of the refractory material storage chamber 5 opposite to the air outlet 16; the outlets of the branch pipe 22 are connected to the air inlets 15 one by one. Multiple air inlets 15 are provided to allow air to enter from different locations within the refractory material storage chamber 5, improving the cooling rate of the refractory material. Simultaneously, for convenient component installation and structural stability, a first mounting bracket 6 is provided on the side wall of the refractory material storage chamber 5 opposite to the air outlet 16; the outlet of the branch pipe 22 is connected to the first mounting bracket 6. A second mounting bracket 7 is provided on the side wall of the refractory material storage chamber 5 opposite to the air inlets 15; the exhaust assembly 3 includes an exhaust fan, the air outlet 16 is adapted to the exhaust fan, and the exhaust fan is mounted on the air outlet 16 via the second mounting bracket 7. Both the first mounting bracket 6 and the second mounting bracket 7 can use connecting rods as the support and fixing base; the connecting rods are set close to the inner wall of the refractory storage chamber 5.

[0046] In some implementations, combined Figure 2 and Figure 6 As shown, the protective box 1 includes a support frame 11, a support base 12, and protective plates 13.

The shape of the support frame 11 determines the shape of the refractory storage chamber 5.

[0047] In some embodiments, there are at least two doors 4; all doors 4 are arranged along a first horizontal direction on the side wall of the protective box 1; the first horizontal direction is from the air inlet 15 to the air outlet 16, so as to facilitate the simultaneous placement of refractory materials to different positions within the refractory material storage chamber 5 through both doors 4. Preferably, as Figure 5 As shown, two cabinet doors 4 are arranged opposite each other to form a double-door structure; each door is hinged to the door frame on the protective plate 13, and flips outward to open when in use. The double-door structure is also equipped with a door lock 10. In some other embodiments, the cabinet door 4 may also use other types of door structures such as sliding doors.

[0048] like Figure 4 As shown, a temperature detector 8 is installed on the side wall of the protective box 1. The temperature detector 8 is specifically located on the side wall of the protective box 1 opposite to the box door 4, and can correspond one-to-one with the box door 4. The temperature detector 8 can be used to detect the temperature inside the box, thereby determining whether the refractory material has finished cooling.

[0049] Furthermore, the support base 12 can be designed as a movable base, specifically by adding self-locking casters 9 to its bottom, so that after the device is loaded with refractory material, it does not need to be placed inside the workshop aisle light, but can be moved to other locations and wait for the opportunity to be transported.
