Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of glass melt casting technology, and in particular to a mold gate device that adapts to different glass melt flow rates. Background Technology

[0002] In glass forming processes, there is a method called casting, which involves pouring molten glass into a mold and then annealing and cooling it to obtain the finished product.

[0003] Traditional glass mold gate designs are often determined based on specific production needs and experience. Once determined, they are difficult to adjust flexibly according to changes in the flow rate of molten glass during production. For example, when producing glass products of different shapes, sizes, or thicknesses, a fixed gate may not meet the optimal molding requirements, resulting in unstable product quality or low production efficiency.

[0004] To address the shortcomings of the existing technology, we propose a mold gate device that adapts to different glass melt flow rates. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by proposing a mold gate device that adapts to different glass melt flow rates.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0007] An adaptive mold gating device for different molten glass flow rates includes a molten glass filling cone, a straight discharge pipe fixedly connected to the lower side of the molten glass filling cone, and an adjustable mold gating mechanism disposed on the lower side of the straight discharge pipe. The adjustable mold gating mechanism includes two symmetrically arranged electric lifting rods, a structural beam fixedly installed between the upper ends of the two electric lifting rods, a servo motor fixedly installed on the upper side of the structural beam, the output end of the servo motor rotating through the structural beam and a rotating shaft fixedly connected to the lower side of the output end of the servo motor, a turntable fixedly installed at the lower end of the rotating shaft, a plurality of insertion slots opened on the upper side of the turntable, an external threaded cylinder fixedly installed at the lower port of the insertion slot, and a gating point disposed on the lower side of the external threaded cylinder.

[0008] Furthermore, the inner diameter specifications of the lower ports of the various gates are different.

[0009] Furthermore, the gate includes an internal threaded cylinder and a conical constriction. The internal threaded cylinder is screwed onto the outside of the external threaded cylinder, and the conical constriction is fixedly connected to the bottom of the internal threaded cylinder. Side cylinders are symmetrically fixedly installed on the outer wall of the internal threaded cylinder.

[0010] Furthermore, the plurality of the insertion slots are evenly distributed at equal circumferential angles along the center of the turntable, the inner diameter of the insertion slots is adapted to the outer diameter of the feeding straight pipe, and the center of the feeding straight pipe is located on the circumference of the distribution of the plurality of insertion slots.

[0011] Furthermore, several side-mounted folding columns are fixedly installed on the side wall of the electric lifting rod, and a control switch is fixedly installed on the side wall of the electric lifting rod.

[0012] Furthermore, a number of reinforcing diagonal bars are fixedly connected between the side wall of the rotating shaft and the upper side of the turntable.

[0013] Furthermore, a sealing ring is provided inside the insertion slot, and the sealing ring is made of pressure-resistant ceramic material.

[0014] Furthermore, an electric heating element is embedded inside the feeding straight tube.

[0015] Compared with related technologies, the mold gate device for adaptive glass melt flow rate proposed in this utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0016] In this invention, an adaptive mold gating device for different glass melt flow rates is described. Through an adjustable mold gating mechanism, multiple gating gates of different specifications are arranged on the lower side of the turntable within the mechanism. The center position of the straight discharge tube is positioned on the circumference of several insertion slots. Thus, when the turntable rotates, it always drives each gating gate to align with the upper straight discharge tube. When a different gating gate specification needs to be changed, the electric lifting rod descends, causing the straight discharge tube to exit the insertion slot. Subsequently, a servo motor is activated to drive the corresponding gating gate to rotate until it aligns with the center of the straight discharge tube. Then, the electric lifting rod rises, bringing the insertion slot tightly against the lower end of the straight discharge tube, thereby completing the switching between different gating gates. The adjustable mold gating mechanism enables rapid switching between different gating gate specifications, meeting the needs of producing glass products of different shapes, sizes, or thicknesses, ensuring the molding quality of glass products, and enhancing practicality.

[0024] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0025] Reference Figure 1-6 An adaptive mold gate device for different glass melt flow rates includes a glass melt filling cone 1, a straight discharge pipe 2 fixedly connected to the lower side of the glass melt filling cone 1, and an adjustable mold gate mechanism 3 provided on the lower side of the straight discharge pipe 2. The adjustable mold gate mechanism 3 includes two symmetrically arranged electric lifting rods 31, a structural beam 32 fixedly installed between the upper ends of the two electric lifting rods 31, a servo motor 35 fixedly installed on the upper side of the structural beam 32, the output end of the servo motor 35 rotates through the structural beam 32, and a rotating shaft 36 is fixedly connected to the lower side of the output end of the servo motor 35. A turntable 37 is fixedly installed at the lower end of the rotating shaft 36. Several insertion slots 39 are opened on the upper side of the turntable 37. An external threaded cylinder 311 is fixedly installed at the lower port of the insertion slot 39, and a gate 312 is provided on the lower side of the external threaded cylinder 311.

[0026] In this method, an electric heating element 21 is embedded inside the straight feeding tube 2.

[0027] By setting up the heating element 21 as described above, the straight tube 2 can heat the molten glass, preventing the molten glass from becoming less fluid during the feeding process and affecting the forming quality of subsequent glass products.

[0028] In this method, the inner diameter of the lower port of several gates 312 is different. The gate 312 includes an internal threaded cylinder 313 and a conical constriction 314. The internal threaded cylinder 313 is screwed onto the outside of the external threaded cylinder 311. The conical constriction 314 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the internal threaded cylinder 313. Side cylinders 315 are symmetrically fixedly installed on the outer wall of the internal threaded cylinder 313.

[0029] With the above-mentioned configuration, the lower end of the conical constriction 314 of the gate 312 achieves flow rate control of the glass flow. The lower end constriction inner diameter of the conical constriction 314 on the lower side of different gates 312 is different. The side cylinder 315 is designed to facilitate the increase of lever arm by inserting an auxiliary round rod, thereby facilitating the turning of the internal threaded cylinder 313. This configuration facilitates the disassembly and assembly of the gate 312.

[0030] In this method, a number of insertion slots 39 are evenly distributed around the center of the turntable 37 with equal circumferential angles. The inner diameter of the insertion slots 39 is matched with the outer diameter of the feeding straight pipe 2, and the center of the feeding straight pipe 2 is located on the circumference of the distribution of the insertion slots 39.

[0031] With the above-mentioned arrangement, the inner diameter of the insertion groove 39 is adapted to the outer diameter of the discharge straight pipe 2, so that the discharge straight pipe 2 can be inserted into the inner side of the insertion groove 39. The center position of the discharge straight pipe 2 is set on the circumference of the distribution of several insertion grooves 39, so that when the turntable 37 rotates, it can always drive each gate 312 to align with the upper discharge straight pipe 2.

[0032] In this method, several side-mounted folding columns 33 are fixedly installed on the side wall of the electric lifting rod 31, and a control switch 34 is fixedly installed on the side wall of the electric lifting rod 31.

[0033] By setting up the side folding column 33 as described above, the lateral support for the electric lifting rod 31 is improved, and the overall stability of the entire adjustable mold gate mechanism 3 is enhanced.

[0034] In this configuration, several reinforcing diagonal braces 38 are fixedly connected between the side wall of the rotating shaft 36 and the upper side of the turntable 37.

[0035] By setting it in the above manner, the diagonal brace 38 is strengthened, and the connection strength between the rotating shaft 36 and the turntable 37 is improved.

[0036] In this method, a sealing ring 310 is provided on the inner side of the insertion groove 39, and the sealing ring 310 is made of pressure-resistant ceramic material.

[0037] With the above-mentioned setup, the pressure-resistant ceramic material has high temperature and pressure resistance properties, which can keep the inside of the straight tube 2 inserted into the insertion groove 39 sealed and prevent the glass liquid from leaking out.

[0038] The working principle of the mold gate device that adapts to different glass melt flow rates provided by this utility model is as follows:

[0039] During use, the gate 312 of the corresponding specification is replaced according to the production requirements of the glass products. After determining the corresponding model of gate 312, the electric lifting rod 31 is activated to retract, so that the insertion groove 39 is removed from the insertion range with the feeding straight tube 2. Then, the servo motor 35 is activated to drive the turntable 37 to rotate, so that the gate 312 of the specified specification is aligned with the feeding straight tube 2. Then, the servo motor 35 stops driving, and the electric lifting rod 31 rises, so that the insertion groove 39 on the upper side of the gate 312 of the specified specification is sleeved on the lower end of the feeding straight tube 2. At this time, the adjustment and replacement of the gate 312 is completed. During the glass pouring process, the electric heating tube 21 inside the feeding straight tube 2 is activated, so that the feeding straight tube 2 can heat the glass liquid, so as to prevent the glass liquid from becoming less fluid during the feeding process and ensure the forming quality of the subsequent glass products.

[0040] The above description is merely an embodiment of this utility model and does not limit the patent scope of this utility model. Any equivalent structural or procedural transformations made based on the content of this utility model specification and drawings, or direct or indirect applications in other related technical fields, are similarly included within the patent protection scope of this utility model.
