Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of glazing technology, and in particular to a glazing device for ceramic tile blanks with a protective structure. Background Technology

[0002] Glazing of ceramic tile blanks is a common surface treatment process, mainly used to enhance the aesthetics, water resistance and durability of ceramic tiles.

[0003] Before glazing, ceramic tiles need to go through steps such as forming, drying, and bisque firing to form a body with a certain strength. During glazing, the glaze is evenly sprayed onto the surface of the body through a spray gun. The glaze is usually made of a mixture of mineral raw materials such as quartz, feldspar, and clay, and has different colors and gloss effects. After glazing, the ceramic tiles need to be fired at high temperature to melt the glaze and firmly adhere it to the surface of the body, forming a smooth and hard glaze layer. This process not only enhances the decorative properties of ceramic tiles, but also effectively prevents moisture penetration and extends their service life. It is widely used in the decoration of building roofs, walls, and other fields.

[0004] Glazes are typically made from inorganic materials such as silicates and alumina, but heavy metals such as lead and cadmium may be added as colorants or stabilizers during the production process.26 In addition, some low-quality glazes may contain excessive amounts of heavy metals or other chemical additives, which may be released into the air as dust or gas during high-temperature firing or glazing.

[0005] Long-term inhalation of dust or gases containing heavy metals such as lead and cadmium may lead to chronic respiratory diseases such as cough, asthma, and pulmonary fibrosis. These particles can accumulate in the lungs, causing inflammatory reactions and may even increase the risk of lung cancer. Utility Model Content

[0006] The purpose of this invention is to address the problem of chronic respiratory diseases that may result from long-term inhalation of dust or gas containing heavy metals such as lead and cadmium in the prior art, and to propose a ceramic tile blank glazing device with a protective structure.

[0007] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0008] A ceramic tile blank glazing device with a protective structure includes a glazing machine body and further includes: a door panel, which is rotatably installed at the front of the working cavity of the glazing machine body; a collection platform, which is fixedly installed on the top of the glazing machine body for collecting excess glaze; and a placement platform, which is fixedly installed on the upper part of the collection platform for placing ceramic tile blanks. The placement platform includes a support plate, and the upper part of the support plate has multiple inclined flow channels, the lowest point of which is located at the edge of the support plate to guide the flow.

[0009] Preferably, a storage compartment is slidably installed at the bottom of the glazing machine body, and the storage compartment is located below the collection platform.

[0010] To facilitate the collection of excess glaze, preferably, the upper part of the collection platform has a flow-guiding recess, and the middle part of the collection platform has an output hole for discharging material.

[0011] To support the support base without affecting the flow of the glaze, the upper part of the collection platform is further fixedly connected to the support base, which has multiple flow channels.

[0012] To facilitate the placement of the support plate, a fixing plate is fixedly connected to the upper part of the support base, and the support plate is placed on the upper part of the fixing plate.

[0013] To allow for the selection of support plates of different sizes according to the size of the ceramic tile blank, and to clamp and fix them by rotating a knob, a knob is rotatably mounted on the upper part of the fixing plate, and a worm gear is fixedly connected to the lower part of the knob. The worm gear is engaged with multiple worm wheels, and a screw is fixedly connected to one side of each worm wheel. A telescopic arm is screwed to the outside of the screw, and the telescopic arm is slidably installed inside the fixing plate. One side of the telescopic arm extends through the fixing plate to the outside and is fixedly installed with a limiting plate. The limiting plate has a limiting groove, and the support plate is movably inserted into the limiting groove.

[0014] To adjust the spraying intensity according to the size of the ceramic tile blank and avoid insufficient glazing due to insufficient spraying intensity or distance from the spraying arm, an infrared rangefinder is fixedly installed at the bottom of the spraying machine. The infrared rangefinder is electrically connected to the spraying machine and is used to detect the extension length of the telescopic arm in real time, thereby adjusting the spraying intensity accordingly.

[0015] Compared with the prior art, this utility model provides a ceramic tile blank glazing device with a protective structure, which has the following beneficial effects:

[0016] This ceramic tile blank glazing device with a protective structure creates a sealed environment by closing the door after the operator places the ceramic tile blank on the support plate, preventing glaze splashing and dust diffusion. During the glazing process, excess glaze flows naturally to the edge through the inclined channel on the support plate and is captured by the collection platform, avoiding prolonged exposure of the glaze to the air and reducing the volatilization of harmful substances. In addition, the collected glaze can be reused, which not only saves materials but also reduces the operator's exposure to harmful substances. By reducing operations in open environments, it significantly reduces the potential harm of heavy metal dust and gases to the respiratory system, thereby protecting the health of the operators.

[0017] The parts of this device not covered herein are the same as or can be implemented using existing technologies. This invention reduces the opportunity for operators to come into contact with harmful substances. By reducing operations in open environments, it significantly reduces the potential harm of heavy metal dust and gases to the respiratory system, thereby protecting the health of operators.

[0025] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.

[0026] In the description of this utility model, it should be understood that the terms "upper", "lower", "front", "rear", "left", "right", "top", "bottom", "inner", "outer", etc., indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings. They are only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this utility model.

[0027] Example:

[0028] Reference Figures 1-5 A ceramic tile blank glazing device with a protective structure includes a glazing machine body 1, and further includes: a door panel 3, which is rotatably installed at the front of the working cavity of the glazing machine body 1; a collection platform 4, which is fixedly installed on the top of the glazing machine body 1 for collecting excess glaze; and a placement platform 5, which is fixedly installed on the upper part of the collection platform 4 for placing ceramic tile blanks. The placement platform 5 includes a support plate 501, and the upper part of the support plate 501 has multiple inclined flow channels 502. The lowest point of the inclined flow channels 502 is located at the edge of the support plate 501 to guide the flow.

[0029] The above-mentioned ceramic tile blank glazing device with protective structure, when the operator places the ceramic tile blank on the support plate 501, the door panel 3 is closed to form a sealed environment to prevent glaze splashing and dust diffusion.

[0030] During the glazing process, excess glaze flows naturally to the edge through the inclined flow channel 502 on the support plate 501 and is captured by the collection platform 4, which avoids the glaze being exposed to the air for a long time and reduces the volatilization of harmful substances.

[0031] In addition, the collected glaze can be reused, which not only saves materials but also reduces the operator's exposure to harmful substances. By reducing operations in open environments, the potential harm of heavy metal dust and gases to the respiratory system is significantly reduced, thereby protecting the health of the operators.

[0032] Preferably, a collection chamber 2 is slidably installed at the bottom of the glazing machine body 1, and the collection chamber 2 is located below the collection platform 4. To achieve the guided collection of excess glaze, preferably, a flow-guiding recess 6 is provided on the upper part of the collection platform 4, and an output hole for material discharge is provided in the middle of the collection platform 4. To support the support base 7 without affecting the flow of glaze, further, a support base 7 is fixedly connected to the upper part of the collection platform 4, and the support base 7 has multiple flow-guiding channels 8.

[0033] The storage compartment 2, which is slidably installed at the bottom of the glazing machine body 1, is located under the collection platform 4 and is used to centrally store the excess glaze material diverted from the collection platform 4.

[0034] The upper part of the collection platform 4 is designed with a flow guiding recess 6, which can effectively guide the dripping glaze during the glazing process to the central area. At the same time, the output hole in the middle of the collection platform 4 cooperates with the flow guiding recess 6 to allow the glaze to flow smoothly into the storage bin 2 below, avoiding the residue and waste of glaze in the working area.

[0035] In addition, the support base 7 fixedly connected to the upper part of the collection platform 4 provides stable support for the ceramic tile blank, and the multiple guide channels 8 ensure that the glaze can flow smoothly to the collection platform 4. The guide channels 8 of the support base 7 and the inclined flow channel 502 of the support plate 501 work together to further optimize the recycling path of the glaze. Finally, all excess glaze is efficiently collected into the storage bin 2 for reuse. This not only reduces production costs but also reduces the risk of operators coming into contact with harmful substances, achieving a dual guarantee of environmental protection and health.

[0036] To accommodate the support plate 501, a fixing plate 505 is fixedly connected to the upper part of the support base 7, and the support plate 501 is placed on the fixing plate 505. To allow selection of different sized support plates 501 according to the size of the ceramic tile blank, and to clamp and fix them by rotating a knob 506, a knob 506 is rotatably mounted on the upper part of the fixing plate 505. A worm gear 507 is fixedly connected to the lower part of the knob 506. The worm gear 507 is meshed with multiple worm wheels 508. Each worm wheel 508 has a screw 509 fixedly connected to one side. A telescopic arm 503 is screwed to the outside of the screw 509. The telescopic arm 503 is slidably installed inside the fixing plate 505, and one side of the telescopic arm 503 extends through the fixing plate 505 to the outside, where a limiting plate 504 is fixedly installed. The limiting plate 504 has a limiting groove, and the support plate 501 is movably inserted into the limiting groove.

[0037] When the operator rotates the knob 506 on the upper part of the fixed plate 505, the knob 506 drives the worm gear 507 connected coaxially below to rotate synchronously. The worm gear 507 converts the rotational motion into the horizontal rotation of each worm gear 508 through meshing transmission with multiple worm wheels 508. The screw 509 fixedly connected to the center of each worm wheel 508 then rotates. Since the telescopic arm 503 forms a helical pair with the screw 509 through the thread and is restricted to sliding inside the fixed plate 505, the rotation of the screw 509 will push each telescopic arm 503 to perform radial telescopic motion along the linear guide rail. The limiting plate 504 connected to the end of the telescopic arm 503 moves synchronously, forming a surrounding clamp on the outer edge of the support plate 501 through the limiting groove opened on its surface.

[0038] When changing to ceramic tile blanks of different sizes, simply rotate knob 506 in the opposite direction to release the clamp, replace with the corresponding support plate 501, and then tighten it again. The special contour design of the limiting groove is compatible with the edge structure of various sizes of support plates 501. Through mechanical linkage, size adjustment and rigid fixation can be completed by one hand. This not only ensures the positioning accuracy of support plates 501 of different diameters, but also effectively amplifies the operating torque through the transmission ratio of worm gear 508 and worm 507, making the clamping force adjustable and stable and reliable.

[0039] To adjust the spraying intensity according to the size of the ceramic tile blank and avoid insufficient glazing due to insufficient spraying intensity and distance from the spraying arm, an infrared rangefinder 9 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the spraying machine 1. The infrared rangefinder 9 is electrically connected to the spraying machine 1 and is used to detect the extension length of the telescopic arm 503 in real time, thereby adjusting the spraying intensity of the spraying machine 1.

[0040] The upper part of the glazing machine body 1 is equipped with a rotating spray arm, which is driven by a motor to perform rotating spraying. In order to avoid insufficient glazing due to insufficient spraying force or too far distance from the spraying arm, the extension distance of the telescopic arm 503 is monitored in real time by an infrared rangefinder 9, thereby controlling the power of the material pump of the glazing machine body 1 and achieving the purpose of controlling the spraying force.

[0041] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or changes made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model, based on the technical solution and the inventive concept of the present utility model, should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
