Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of glazing equipment, and more particularly to an automatic glazing line for ceramic blanks. Background Technology

[0002] Spray glazing is one of the modern ceramic glazing techniques. It involves using a spray gun or sprayer to atomize the glaze slurry and spray it onto the surface of the ceramic body.

[0003] Currently, glazing is still done manually, which is inefficient, requires a high level of skill from the operators, and the working environment is heavily polluted by dust particles, which has a significant impact on the health of the operators. Utility Model Content

[0004] To improve work efficiency and reduce manual operation, this application provides an automatic glazing line for ceramic blanks.

[0005] The automatic glazing line for ceramic blanks provided in this application adopts the following technical solution:

[0006] An automatic glazing line for ceramic blanks includes a conveyor table, a conveying mechanism on the conveyor table, multiple evenly distributed support frames on the conveying mechanism, a glazing spraying assembly on the conveyor table, the glazing spraying assembly including a fixed rod on the conveyor table, multiple sets of spray nozzles on the fixed rod, each set of spray nozzles having two nozzles, located on the upper and lower sides of the top of the support frame respectively, and a detection assembly on the conveyor table.

[0007] By adopting the above technical solution, the ceramic embryo is placed on the support frame and conveyed by the conveying mechanism. During the conveying process, the detection component detects the position of the ceramic embryo. When the ceramic embryo reaches the area where the glazing component is located, the corresponding area's spray pipe sprays glaze. The ceramic embryo is located between the upper and lower spray pipes, so the spray pipes can spray glaze on the entire ceramic embryo, thereby realizing the automation of ceramic glazing, improving work efficiency, and reducing the harm of glazing work to the human body.

[0008] Optionally, the support frame includes a vertically arranged support rod, and a plurality of load rods evenly distributed around the support rod are provided at the end of the support rod away from the conveyor table, and the end of the load rod away from the support rod is higher than the support rod.

[0009] By adopting the above technical solution, the ceramic embryo is placed on the carrier rod, which is higher than the support rod, thereby reducing the contact area with the ceramic embryo and allowing the glazing on the ceramic embryo to be completed, thus improving the quality of the product.

[0010] Optionally, the conveying platform is provided with a conveying groove, and the conveying mechanism includes a support plate corresponding to each support rod. The end of the support rod away from the load rod is rotatably connected to the support plate. Both ends of the support plate are provided with chains. The chain plates are fixedly connected to the support plate. Rollers are rotatably connected to the pins of the chains, and the conveying platform supports the rollers.

[0011] By adopting the above technical solution, the support plate is supported by rollers, and the rollers support the chain. The support plate moves under the traction of the chain, thereby driving the support rod and the ceramic embryo to move.

[0012] Optionally, the support rod is rotatably connected to the support plate, and the conveyor platform is further provided with a drive component for driving the support rod to rotate.

[0013] By adopting the above technical solution, when the support plate moves to the area of ​​the glazing assembly, the drive component drives the support rod to rotate, thereby causing the ceramic embryo to rotate. As a result, the nozzle can perform glazing work on the periphery of the ceramic embryo, thus making the glazing of the ceramic embryo more complete.

[0014] Optionally, the driving component includes a gear mounted on a support rod, and a rack that meshes with the gear is provided inside the transmission groove, the rack being located in the area where the glazing assembly is located.

[0015] By adopting the above technical solution, the gear moves with the support plate. When the gear meshes with the rack, the gear rotates as the support plate moves, thereby driving the support rod and the ceramic embryo to rotate, thus realizing the automatic rotation of the ceramic embryo.

[0016] Optionally, the detection assembly includes photoelectric sensors disposed on both sides of each group of nozzles, with the photoelectric sensors facing the side where the support rod is located.

[0017] By adopting the above technical solution, when the ceramic embryo moves to the first photoelectric sensor, the nozzle sprays glaze accordingly, and when the ceramic embryo moves to another photoelectric sensor, the nozzle closes, thereby realizing the automatic glazing operation of the ceramic embryo.

[0018] Optionally, a fixing block is provided on the fixing rod, the fixing rod passes through the fixing block and is rotatably connected to the fixing block, the fixing block is also provided with fixing bolts fixedly installed on the fixing rod, the nozzle passes through the fixing block, and the fixing block is provided with connecting bolts that fix the nozzle to the fixing block.

[0019] By adopting the above technical solution, the angle of the fixing block on the fixing rod is adjusted by tightening the fixing bolt, thereby adjusting the angle of the spray nozzle, so as to spray glaze onto the ceramic embryo.

[0020] In summary, this application includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects:

[0021] During the transmission process, the detection component detects the position of the ceramic embryo. When the ceramic embryo arrives at the area where the glazing component is located, the corresponding area's spray nozzle performs glazing. The ceramic embryo is located between the upper and lower spray nozzles, so the spray nozzles can glaze the entire ceramic embryo and realize the automation of ceramic glazing, improve work efficiency, and reduce the harm of glazing work to the human body.

[0022] When the support plate moves to the area of ​​the glazing assembly, the drive unit drives the support rod to rotate, thereby causing the ceramic embryo to rotate. As a result, the nozzle can perform glazing on the periphery of the ceramic embryo, making the glazing of the ceramic embryo more complete. Attached Figure Description

[0027] The present application will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0028] This application discloses an automatic glazing line for ceramic blanks. (Refer to...) Figure 1 and Figure 2 An automatic glazing line for ceramic blanks includes a conveyor table 1, on which a conveyor groove 11 is provided, and the conveyor groove 11 is arranged along the length direction of the conveyor table 1.

[0029] A conveying mechanism 2 is provided inside the conveying trough 11. The conveying mechanism 2 includes chains 21 arranged symmetrically inside the conveying trough 11, with sprockets meshing at both ends of the chains 21. A drive motor for rotating the sprockets is installed on the conveying table 1. Multiple support plates 22 are evenly distributed along the moving direction of the chains 21 between the two sprockets. Both ends of the support plates 22 are fixedly connected to the chain plates of the chains 21. Each support plate 22 is provided with a support frame 3 for supporting the ceramic embryo. The conveying table 1 is provided with a glazing assembly 4 facing the ceramic embryo and a detection assembly for detecting the position of the ceramic embryo.

[0030] The ceramic embryo is placed on the support frame 3, and the drive motor drives the chain 21 to rotate. The support plate 22 moves with the chain 21, which in turn moves the support frame 3 and the ceramic embryo. During the movement of the ceramic embryo, the detection component detects the position of the ceramic embryo. When the ceramic embryo reaches the area where the glazing component 4 is located, the corresponding glazing component 4 performs glazing, thereby realizing the automation of ceramic glazing.

[0031] To improve the support capacity of the chain 21, a roller 23 is rotatably connected to the pin of the chain 21. A guide groove parallel to the chain 21 is provided on the conveyor table 1. The roller 23 moves along the guide groove, thereby supporting the support plate 22 by the roller 23. At the same time, the roller 23 supports the chain 21. The support plate 22 moves under the traction of the chain 21, thereby driving the support rod 31 and the ceramic embryo to move.

[0032] The support frame 3 includes a vertically arranged support rod 31. At the end of the support rod 31 away from the conveyor table 1, four load rods 32 are fixedly arranged around the support rod 31. The load rods 32 are L-shaped, and the end of the load rod 32 away from the support rod 31 is higher than the support rod 31. The end of the support rod 31 away from the load rod 32 passes through the support plate 22 and is rotatably connected to the support plate 22.

[0033] The ceramic embryo is placed on the carrier rod 32, which is higher than the support rod 31, thereby reducing the contact area with the ceramic embryo and thus completing the glazing on the ceramic embryo.

[0034] The conveyor 1 is also equipped with a drive component 5 that drives the support rod 31 to rotate. The drive component 5 includes a gear 51 fixed at the lower end of the support rod 31. A rack 52 that can mesh with the gear 51 is fixed inside the conveyor groove 11. The rack 52 is located in the area where the glazing component 4 is located.

[0035] When the support plate 22 moves to the area of ​​the glazing assembly 4, the gear 51 moves with the support plate 22 and meshes with the rack 52. The gear 51 rotates when the support plate 22 moves, thereby driving the support rod 31 and the ceramic embryo to rotate, thus realizing the automatic rotation of the ceramic embryo. At this time, the glazing assembly 4 performs glazing work on the circumference of the ceramic embryo, thereby making the glazing of the ceramic embryo more complete.

[0036] The detection assembly includes photoelectric sensors positioned on both sides of each set of nozzles 42 (not shown in the figure). The photoelectric sensors face the side where the support rod 31 is located and are used to detect the ceramic embryo. When the ceramic embryo moves to the first photoelectric sensor, glazing is initiated. When the ceramic embryo moves to another photoelectric sensor, the glazing assembly 4 shuts off, thereby achieving automatic glazing of the ceramic embryo.

[0037] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 3The glazing assembly 4 includes a fixed rod 41 fixedly installed on the conveyor table 1. The fixed rod 41 is provided with multiple sets of spray pipes 42. Each set of spray pipes 42 consists of two pipes, which are located on the upper and lower sides of the top of the support frame 3, respectively. The ceramic embryo is located between the upper and lower spray pipes 42, so that the spray pipes 42 can glaze the entire ceramic embryo.

[0038] A fixing block 43 is provided on the fixing rod 41. The fixing rod 41 passes through the fixing block 43 and is rotatably connected to the fixing block 43. A fixing bolt 44 is also provided on the fixing block 43. The fixing block 43 has a notch facing the fixing rod 41. The fixing bolt 44 passes through the notch and controls the size of the notch. The spray pipe 42 is installed on the fixing block 43 with the same structure. The fixing block 43 is provided with a connecting bolt for fixing the spray pipe 42. By turning the fixing bolt 44, the angle of the fixing block 43 on the fixing rod 41 is adjusted, thereby adjusting the angle of the spray pipe 42, so as to spray glaze on the ceramic embryo.

[0039] The implementation principle of an automatic glazing line for ceramic blanks in this application embodiment is as follows: The ceramic blank is placed on the carrier rod 32, and the drive motor drives the chain 21 to rotate, thereby driving the support plate 22 to move. The support plate 22 drives the support frame 3 and the ceramic blank to move. When the detection component detects that the ceramic blank has reached the area where the glazing component 4 is located, the gear 51 meshes with the rack 52 and moves along the direction of the rack 52. The gear 51 rotates accordingly and drives the ceramic blank to rotate. At this time, the spray nozzle 42 sprays glaze onto the ceramic blank. When the ceramic blank reaches another photoelectric sensor in the same group, the spray nozzle 42 stops spraying glaze.

[0040] The above are all preferred embodiments of this application, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this application. Therefore, all equivalent changes made in accordance with the structure, shape and principle of this application should be covered within the scope of protection of this application.
