Abstract

This utility model discloses a raw material dehumidification device for glass production, including a machine body. A shell is fixedly installed on the inner bottom surface of the machine body. A drive motor is fixedly installed inside the shell. A first spur gear is fixedly installed at the front end of the drive motor. A first rack meshes above the first spur gear. When the raw material dehumidification device for glass production is started, the stepper motor rotates, driving the connecting block to move, which in turn drives three pressure rollers to squeeze and flatten the raw material. The drive motor also rotates, driving the piston plate to move, causing the air inside the pipe to circulate. The air drawn into the pipe is dried by a drying device, and an electric heater is activated to heat the air blown into the equipment, thus drying the raw material. The drive motor rotates, driving the bevel gear to rotate, which in turn drives two fan blades to rotate, cooling the raw material. This facilitates the flattening of the raw material for dehumidification and drying operations, resulting in high dehumidification and drying efficiency. The device uses a circulating drying and dehumidification process for the raw material.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of dehumidification equipment technology, specifically to a raw material dehumidification equipment used in glass production. Background Technology

[0002] Glass is a transparent or translucent solid material, mainly made by melting silicates at high temperatures and then cooling them. A glass raw material dehumidification device is used to control and reduce the moisture content of raw materials (such as pure silica sand, limestone, sodium carbonate, etc.) during the glass production process. Effective dehumidification can improve the performance of raw materials, ensure the stability of the glass melting process, and improve product quality. However, existing raw material dehumidification equipment for glass production still has certain shortcomings; for example:

[0003] The patent application CN202322393218.5, entitled "Raw Material Dehumidification Equipment for Glass Production," includes a cylinder, a support assembly, and a drive mechanism. One end of the cylinder has an air inlet and a feed inlet, while the other end has a discharge outlet. A scraper is installed on the inner wall of the cylinder. The support assembly supports the cylinder, which can rotate around its own axis. The drive mechanism is connected to the cylinder to drive its rotation. This effectively reduces the moisture content of the batch materials in glass production, thereby reducing the emission of boron oxides and the waste of raw materials. It also improves glass quality, extends the service life of glass furnaces, and reduces equipment and operating costs. However, while this raw material dehumidification equipment can be used effectively, it suffers from several drawbacks. First, the air cannot be circulated for dehumidification during the drying and dehumidification process, and the raw materials cannot be properly leveled. Second, the equipment has a poor dehumidification effect, a simple structure, and is inflexible in its use, often causing problems for users. Utility Model Content

[0011] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: This raw material dehumidification equipment for glass production starts by rotating a stepper motor to move a connecting block, which in turn moves three pressure rollers to squeeze and flatten the raw material.
