Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of glass production technology, and more specifically to a cleaning device for recycling waste glass. Background Technology

[0002] Glass is an amorphous inorganic non-metallic material, typically made from a variety of inorganic minerals (such as quartz sand, borax, boric acid, barite, barium carbonate, limestone, feldspar, and soda ash) as the main raw materials, supplemented with small amounts of other raw materials. It is widely used in numerous fields and plays a vital role in people's daily lives and production activities. However, with the large-scale use of glass products, a significant amount of glass waste is also generated. To achieve sustainable development, recycling and reusing this broken glass is particularly important, as it not only saves costs but also effectively reduces the damage of waste to the natural environment.

[0003] Currently, the waste glass recycled by factories contains a high level of impurities and must be crushed and cleaned before it can be reused. The existing cleaning process mainly relies on manual labor, and the glass must be dried after cleaning. Due to the structural characteristics of glass, manual cleaning can easily lead to skin injuries for cleaning personnel, and the entire process is time-consuming, labor-intensive, inefficient, and poses a threat to the safety of the cleaning staff.

Detailed Implementation

[0019] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0020] A cleaning device for recycling waste glass, combined with Figure 1 As shown, the device includes a cleaning tank 1 and a PLC controller. The cleaning tank 1 is equipped with a glass inlet 11 for placing glass to be cleaned. A glass collection box 8 is provided at the discharge port at the rear end of the cleaning tank 1 for collecting the cleaned glass. The PLC controller is used to control the cleaning of the glass.

[0021] The cleaning chamber 1 is divided into a rinsing chamber 3, a cleaning chamber 4, and a drying chamber 5 in sequence along the running direction of the glass by a partition 12. The glass is rinsed, cleaned, and dried in sequence. The partition 12 has through holes that connect adjacent chambers. Each of the rinsing chamber 3, cleaning chamber 4, and drying chamber 5 is equipped with a conveyor belt 14 for conveying the glass. A drive motor is installed on the outer wall of the cleaning chamber 1 to drive the conveyor belt to rotate and convey the glass. The input terminal of the drive motor is connected to the input terminal of the PLC controller.

[0022] The rinsing chamber 3 is equipped with rinsing mechanisms on both the upper and lower sides of the conveyor belt 14 for rinsing the glass. The rinsing mechanism includes rinsing pipes 32 on both the upper and lower sides of the conveyor belt 14. Several high-pressure nozzles 33 are installed inside the rinsing pipes. The rinsing pipes 32 are connected to the rinsing liquid tank 6 through the rinsing pipe 31. The rinsing liquid tank 6 contains rinsing liquid. A high-pressure pump 34 is installed on the rinsing pipe 31. The input end of the high-pressure pump is connected to the output end of the PLC controller. Under the action of the high-pressure pump, the rinsing liquid in the rinsing liquid tank enters the rinsing pipe and is sprayed onto both sides of the glass on the conveyor belt through the high-pressure nozzles to remove impurities from the glass.

[0023] The bottom of the rinsing chamber 3 is connected to the rinsing fluid tank 6 via a pipe. A pump 22 is installed on the pipe, and a filter 21 is installed on the pipe at the front end of the pump to filter impurities in the rinsing water. The input end of the pump is connected to the output end of the PLC controller. The rinsing water at the bottom of the rinsing chamber enters the rinsing fluid tank through the pipe for reuse, avoiding resource waste.

[0024] The rinsing fluid tank 6 is equipped with a feed pipe for adding rinsing water. The rinsing fluid tank 6 is connected to a cleaning fluid tank 61 via a pipe for adding cleaning fluid. When the rinsing water in the rinsing chamber is reused in the rinsing fluid tank, since the rinsing water already contains cleaning fluid, it is not necessary to add cleaning fluid to the cleaning fluid tank again. However, when adding water to the rinsing fluid tank, cleaning fluid must be added to maintain the concentration of cleaning fluid in the rinsing water, thereby ensuring the effective rinsing of the glass.

[0025] After rinsing in the rinsing chamber, the glass enters the cleaning fluid chamber 4 for cleaning. The cleaning chamber 4 is filled with cleaning water to clean the glass inside. An ultrasonic vibrator 44 is installed at the bottom of the cleaning chamber to perform ultrasonic cleaning on the glass. The input end of the ultrasonic vibrator is connected to the output end of the PLC controller. When the glass enters the cleaning chamber, it is cleaned by ultrasonic vibration through the ultrasonic vibrator during the conveyor belt process.

[0026] The conveyor belt 14 inside the cleaning chamber 4 is inclined upward along the glass running direction. A cleaning pipe 41 is installed above the conveyor belt 14 extending out of the cleaning water surface. A cleaning nozzle 42 is installed below the cleaning pipe. A cleaning water tank 7 is connected to the cleaning pipe. A cleaning pump 43 is installed on the cleaning pipe. The input end of the cleaning pump is connected to the output end of the PLC controller. When the glass is transported in the cleaning chamber by the conveyor belt, the glass in the cleaning water is ultrasonically cleaned. When the glass moves up along the conveyor belt and out of the cleaning water surface, it is sprayed and cleaned by the cleaning nozzle above to remove impurities from the glass surface and improve the cleaning effect.

[0027] A liquid level sensor 45 is installed in the cleaning chamber 4 to detect the liquid level information of the cleaning water. The height of the liquid level sensor is higher than the bottom of the conveyor belt and higher than the height of the through hole on the partition. The output end of the liquid level sensor is connected to the input end of the PLC controller.

[0028] The bottom of the cleaning chamber is connected to the cleaning water tank 7 via a pipe. The pipe is equipped with a solenoid valve 23, a filter 21, and a pump 22. The solenoid valve is used to control whether the cleaning water in the cleaning chamber is discharged. The filter is located at the front end of the pump and is used to filter the cleaning water. The pump is used to pump the cleaning water in the cleaning chamber into the cleaning water tank for reuse.

[0029] After cleaning, the glass enters the drying chamber 5 for drying. A drying mechanism is installed above the conveyor belt 14 in the drying chamber 5 to dry the cleaned glass.

[0030] The drying mechanism includes an air duct 51 positioned above the conveyor belt 14 within the drying chamber 5. An air nozzle 52 is mounted on the air duct 51, and a blower 53 is connected to the air duct 51 for blowing air. The input end of the blower is connected to the output end of a PLC controller. When the glass is transported into the drying chamber and conveyed forward by the conveyor belt, the blower blows air onto the glass on the conveyor belt through the air nozzle, accelerating the drying of moisture on the glass.

[0031] Moisture remains on the glass inside the drying chamber and drips to the bottom of the chamber. The bottom of the drying chamber 5 is connected to the cleaning water tank 7 via a pipe. The pipe is equipped with a solenoid valve 23, a filter 21, and a pump 22. The solenoid valve controls whether the cleaning water in the drying chamber is discharged. The filter is located at the front end of the pump and is used to filter the dripped water. The pump pumps the dripped water from the drying chamber into the cleaning water tank for reuse in the cleaning chamber.

[0032] Guide plates 13 are provided between the inner wall of the rinsing chamber below the glass inlet 11 and the conveyor belt 14, between the conveyor belts of adjacent chambers, and between the conveyor belt of the drying chamber and the glass collection box 8. These guide plates are used to guide the glass so that it can accurately enter the conveyor belt or the glass collection box.

[0033] In this invention, the glass to be cleaned is fed into a conveyor belt inside the rinsing chamber. As the conveyor belt moves forward, high-pressure nozzles spray water onto both sides of the glass to remove impurities from the surface. The glass is then conveyed into the cleaning chamber, where it undergoes a secondary cleaning process using ultrasonic vibration. After cleaning, the glass is removed from the water and sprayed from above to remove further impurities before entering a drying chamber for drying. In the drying chamber, the glass is drained, and air is blown onto the surface during this process to accelerate drying. Finally, the glass is transported to a collection box for collection. The cleaning water is recycled and reused during the cleaning process, preventing water waste.
