Abstract
Description
An overflow outlet structure for a photovoltaic rolled glass melting furnace Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of furnace overflow technology, and in particular to an overflow structure for a photovoltaic rolled glass furnace. Background Technology
[0002] A glass melting furnace is a furnace used to melt glass raw materials. It is a key piece of equipment in glass production, generally constructed of refractory materials, and has a complex structure and a strict temperature control system. Glass melting furnaces typically have multiple feeding ports for adding various glass raw materials, such as quartz sand, soda ash, and limestone, into the furnace in specific proportions.
[0003] In existing glass melting furnaces, the overflow outlet uses a straight slope to transport raw materials through the flow channel. Due to the large drop, the molten glass has a high velocity and kinetic energy when flowing out of the furnace, directly impacting the bottom of the overflow outlet's inner wall. This causes severe erosion and wear on the bottom of the overflow outlet, leading to rapid damage to the bottom refractory material and shortening the service life of the overflow outlet. Summary of the Invention
[0004] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model provides an overflow port structure for a photovoltaic rolled glass melting furnace.
[0005] This utility model is achieved by the following technical solution: an overflow port structure for a photovoltaic rolling glass melting furnace, including a flow slowing mechanism, a flow control mechanism and a locking mechanism, wherein the flow control mechanism is located on the left side of the flow slowing mechanism and the locking mechanism is located on the top of the flow control mechanism;
[0006] The flow-slowing mechanism includes a flow channel, with a gentle slope at the bottom of the inner wall of the flow channel. A flow-slowing column is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the gentle slope. A support plate is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the flow channel. A motor is fixedly connected to the top of the support plate. A rotating rod is fixedly connected to the output end of the motor. A pusher plate is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the rotating rod. A gear is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the end of the rotating rod away from the motor. The gear meshes with a gear I. A fixed column is rotatably connected inside the gear I. The fixed column is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the flow channel.
[0007] Through the above technical solution, after the molten glass enters the inner wall of the flow channel, a gentle slope is set inside the flow channel to reduce the drop. At the same time, a flow-slowing column is fixed on the outer wall of the gentle slope to slow down the flow rate of the molten glass, preventing the molten glass from directly scouring the bottom of the flow channel, reducing the wear of refractory materials, and improving the service life of the flow channel. The motor drives the pusher plate to rotate through the rotating rod. The pusher plate can improve the fluidity of the molten glass and reduce the stagnation and accumulation of the molten glass caused by poor flow, thereby reducing the probability of glass defects such as crystallization and bubbles, which helps to produce high-quality photovoltaic rolled glass. At the same time, a gear is fixed on the outer wall of the rotating rod. The gears mesh with each other. There are two rotating rods. The gear drives the two rotating rods to move in the same direction.
[0008] As a further improvement to the above solution, the flow control mechanism includes a melting furnace, which is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the flow channel. A baffle plate is slidably connected inside the melting furnace, and a toothed plate is fixedly connected to the top of the baffle plate.
[0009] As a further improvement to the above scheme, the toothed plate is meshed with a second gear, a first fixing column is fixedly connected inside the second gear, a first motor is fixedly connected to the outer end of the first fixing column, and the first motor is fixedly connected to the top of the melting furnace.
[0010] With the above technical solution, after the raw material is melted inside the melting furnace, the motor drives the gear 2 to rotate through the fixed column 1, so that the gear 2 meshes with the toothed plate. At the same time, the toothed plate is fixed to the baffle plate. The precise adjustment of the opening and closing distance of the baffle plate can achieve precise control of the glass melt flow rate, limit the outflow of glass melt, and prevent the occurrence of overflow.
[0011] As a further improvement to the above solution, the locking mechanism includes a locking post, which is fixedly connected to the top of the baffle plate. A locking block is provided in contact with the outer wall of the locking post, and a fixing rod is rotatably connected inside the locking block.
[0012] As a further improvement to the above solution, the fixing rod is fixedly connected to the top of the melting furnace, and a connecting rod is fixedly connected to the top of the end of the locking block away from the locking post. A connecting plate is rotatably connected to the outer wall of the connecting rod.
[0013] As a further improvement to the above solution, a connecting rod is rotatably connected to the end of the connecting plate away from the connecting rod, and a T-shaped slider is fixedly connected to the bottom of the connecting rod.
[0014] As a further improvement to the above solution, a rotating disk is slidably connected to the outer wall of the T-shaped slider, a support rod is fixedly connected inside the rotating disk, a second motor is fixedly connected to the bottom of the support rod, and the second motor is fixedly connected to the top of the melting furnace.
[0015] The above technical solution allows the card block to rotate around the fixed rod as the center, causing the card block to contact the locking post. At the same time, the locking post is fixed to the baffle plate, thereby preventing the baffle plate from shaking due to unexpected situations. This ensures that the baffle plate can accurately control the flow rate of molten glass and reduces the occurrence of unexpected situations.
[0016] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:
[0017] This invention features a gentle slope inside the flow channel after the molten glass enters the channel, reducing the drop in elevation. Simultaneously, a flow-slowing column is fixed to the outer wall of the slope, slowing the flow rate of the molten glass and preventing it from directly scouring the bottom of the channel. This reduces wear on the refractory material and extends the service life of the flow channel. A motor drives a pusher plate via a rotating rod, which improves the fluidity of the molten glass, reducing stagnation and accumulation caused by poor flow. This lowers the probability of glass defects such as crystallization and bubbles, contributing to the production of high-quality photovoltaic rolled glass. Additionally, a gear is fixed to the outer wall of the rotating rod, meshing with another gear. Since there are two rotating rods, the first gear drives both rotating rods to move in the same direction.
[0018] This invention achieves precise control of the glass melt flow rate by melting the raw material inside the furnace, then driving the gear 2 to rotate via the fixed column 1, so that the gear 2 meshes with the toothed plate, and the toothed plate is fixed to the baffle plate. The precise adjustment of the opening and closing distance of the baffle plate can limit the outflow of glass melt and prevent overflow. Attached Figure Description

[0031] The flow control mechanism 2 includes a melting furnace 201, which is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the flow channel 101. A baffle plate 202 is slidably connected inside the melting furnace 201, and a toothed plate 203 is fixedly connected to the top of the baffle plate 202.
[0032] Gear 204 is meshed with the toothed plate 203. A fixed column 205 is fixedly connected inside the gear 204. A motor 206 is fixedly connected to the outer end of the fixed column 205. The motor 206 is fixedly connected to the top of the melting furnace 201.
[0033] The locking mechanism 3 includes a locking post 301, which is fixedly connected to the top of the baffle plate 202. A locking block 302 is provided in contact with the outer wall of the locking post 301, and a fixing rod 303 is rotatably connected inside the locking block 302.
[0034] The fixing rod 303 is fixedly connected to the top of the melting furnace 201. The top of the end of the locking block 302 away from the locking post 301 is fixedly connected to the connecting rod 304. The outer wall of the connecting rod 304 is rotatably connected to the connecting plate 305.
[0035] A connecting rod 306 is rotatably connected to the end of the connecting plate 305 away from the connecting rod 304, and a T-shaped slider 307 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the connecting rod 306.

[0037] The implementation principle of the overflow port structure of a photovoltaic rolled glass melting furnace in this embodiment is as follows: After the raw material is melted inside the melting furnace 201, the motor 206 drives the gear 204 to rotate through the fixed column 205, so that the gear 204 meshes with the toothed plate 203. At the same time, the toothed plate 203 is fixed to the baffle plate 202.

Meanwhile, the motor 1... 05 The rotating rod 106 drives the pusher plate 107 to rotate.
