Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of glass production sealing technology, and in particular to the sealing structure of the observation port of a glass furnace. Background Technology

[0002] The observation port is a crucial part of a glass furnace used to observe the glass melting process. By observing the flame conditions inside the furnace and analyzing the temperature of the furnace chamber and molten glass, it is extremely useful for ensuring the furnace's normal operation by monitoring the erosion of the furnace wall bricks. Currently, the sealing mechanism for the observation ports in the regenerators of domestic glass furnaces mainly uses a vertical seal, meaning the observation port plug is perpendicular to the furnace's observation port brick. However, this structure allows the furnace flame to escape easily, and the observation port is highly susceptible to scorching and damage from the flame, resulting in economic losses.

[0003] In the prior art, CN206529395U discloses an observation door structure, in which a door post 2 is mounted on a support 1, and an observation door is mounted on the door post 2, the two being connected by a snap ring 3. In this design, the observation door lacks other structural support, and due to the absence of a flame shielding structure, it suffers from poor sealing and a short service life.

[0004] To address this, a sealing structure for the observation port of a glass furnace was proposed, which has the advantage of being a flame-resistant observation window, thereby solving the problems mentioned in the background technology. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by proposing a sealing structure for the observation port of a glass furnace.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: a sealing structure for the observation port of a glass furnace, comprising a furnace body, an observation hole on the surface of the furnace body, and an installation groove around the observation hole, an observation window fixed in the installation groove by an adhesive, the observation window being connected to the observation hole, a high-temperature resistant glass embedded in the right end of the observation window, and a sealing frame fixed to the edge of the high-temperature resistant glass by screws, a first sealing shell fixed to one side of the observation window, and a second sealing shell fixed to the other side of the observation window, brackets welded to the ends of the first and second sealing shells, and an electric cylinder fixedly installed inside the brackets, an upper baffle fixed to the electric cylinder of the first sealing shell, and a sealing strip welded to one end of the upper baffle, a lower baffle fixed to the electric cylinder of the second sealing shell, and a sealing groove corresponding to the sealing strip on one end of the lower baffle, a rubber sleeve fitted to the end of the upper and lower baffles away from the observation window, and the rubber sleeve contacting the inner wall of the first or second sealing shell.

[0007] As a further description of the above technical solution: the observation window extends to one end of the mounting groove and is welded with several mounting ears, and the surfaces of the several mounting ears are all fixedly connected to the kiln body by expansion bolts.

[0008] As a further description of the above technical solution: the cross-section of both the sealing strip and the sealing groove is a V-shaped structure.

[0009] As a further description of the above technical solution: the initial state of the upper baffle and the lower baffle is both inside the first sealing shell and the second sealing shell, and the length of the upper baffle and the lower baffle is adapted to the inner size of the observation window.

[0010] As a further description of the above technical solution: an observation panel is integrally provided at the end of the observation window away from the mounting ear, and the high-temperature resistant glass is embedded in the inner side of the observation panel of the observation window.

[0011] As a further description of the above technical solution: the end face of the first sealing shell or the second sealing shell is provided with a circular through hole corresponding to the push rod of the electric cylinder.

[0012] This utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0013] In this invention, a blocking-type sealing structure for the observation hole is constructed using a first sealing shell, a second sealing shell, a bracket, an electric cylinder, an upper baffle, a sealing strip, a lower baffle, and a sealing groove. By activating the electric cylinders mounted on the brackets of the first and second sealing shells to extend, the electric cylinders of the first and second sealing shells respectively push the upper and lower baffles to move towards each other, so that the sealing strip with a V-shaped cross section of the upper baffle and the sealing groove with a V-shaped cross section of the lower baffle are inserted into each other, forming a blocking-type sealing structure for the observation hole. This prevents flames from entering the observation hole and damaging the observation window. When observing the flame conditions inside the glass furnace, the upper and lower baffles are promptly retracted into the first and second sealing shells, facilitating observation by the staff.

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.

[0020] According to an embodiment of the present invention, a sealing structure for the observation port of a glass furnace is provided.

A lower baffle 14 is fixed to the electric cylinder 10 of the second sealing shell 8, and a sealing groove 15 is opened at one end of the lower baffle 14 corresponding to the sealing strip 13. A rubber sleeve 12 is fitted on the end of the upper baffle 11 and the lower baffle 14 away from the observation window 4, and the rubber sleeve 12 is in contact with the inner wall of the first sealing shell 7 or the second sealing shell 8. In order to increase the heat insulation effect of the upper baffle 11 and the lower baffle 14, the surfaces of the upper baffle 11 and the lower baffle 14 are coated with conventional refractory material coating. The rubber sleeve 12 is made of high temperature resistant rubber. In order to increase the blocking and sealing effect of the observation window 4, the first sealing shell 7 and the second sealing shell 8 are set close to the observation hole 2. In this patent, we only use the electric cylinder 10 without improving its structure and function. Its setting method, installation method and electrical connection method can be adjusted and operated by those skilled in the art according to the requirements of its instruction manual. It will not be described in detail here. The electric cylinder 10 is equipped with a matching control switch.

[0022] In one embodiment, a plurality of mounting ears 16 are welded to one end of the observation window 4 extending into the mounting groove 3, and the surfaces of the plurality of mounting ears 16 are fixedly connected to the kiln body 1 by expansion bolts. The installation reliability of the observation window 4 is increased by the setting of the mounting ears 16 and the expansion bolts.

[0023] In one embodiment, both the sealing strip 13 and the sealing groove 15 have V-shaped cross-sections. The use of sealing strips 13 and sealing grooves 15 with V-shaped cross-sections increases the tightness of the connection between the upper baffle 11 and the lower baffle 14.

[0024] In one embodiment, the upper baffle 11 and the lower baffle 14 are initially located inside the first sealing shell 7 and the second sealing shell 8, and the lengths of the upper baffle 11 and the lower baffle 14 are adapted to the inner dimensions of the observation window 4.

[0027] Working principle:

[0028] In use, firstly, insert the end of the observation window 4 with the mounting ear 16 into the mounting groove 3 opened around the observation hole 2, and fix the observation window 4 with expansion bolts and adhesive. When the observation window 4 is in a non-observation state, by activating the electric cylinder 10 installed on the bracket 9 of the first sealing shell 7 and the second sealing shell 8, the electric cylinder 10 of the first sealing shell 7 and the second sealing shell 8 will extend, causing the electric cylinder 10 of the first sealing shell 7 and the second sealing shell 8 to push the upper baffle 11 and the lower baffle 14 to move towards each other, so that the sealing strip 13 with a V-shaped cross section of the upper baffle 11 and the lower baffle 14... A V-shaped sealing groove 15 is inserted to form a blocking sealing structure for the observation hole 2, preventing flames from entering the observation hole 2 and damaging the observation window 4, while maintaining the sealing of the observation window 4. When it is necessary to observe the flame conditions inside the glass furnace, the electric cylinder 10 is activated to retract, causing the electric cylinder 10 to drive the upper baffle 11 or the lower baffle 14 to retract in time, so that the upper baffle 11 and the lower baffle 14 are promptly retracted into the first sealing shell 7 and the second sealing shell 8, making it convenient for staff to observe the flame conditions inside the glass furnace.
