Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of glass heating furnace technology, and in particular to a glass conveying structure for in-furnace transfer. Background Technology

[0002] In the glass manufacturing industry, the high-temperature environment inside the furnace places stringent requirements on the glass conveying structure. Traditional glass conveying devices typically rely on conveyor belts or simple track systems, which have the following technical drawbacks:

[0003] Limited load-bearing capacity: Existing structures mostly adopt single-point support or rigid frame design, which is difficult to stably support heavy glass or molds, and the glass is prone to breakage due to thermal stress or mechanical vibration.

[0004] Low power transmission efficiency: Traditional drive methods (such as chain drive or single motor drive) have problems of power dispersion and poor synchronization, which leads to unstable operation of the conveyor vehicle, and even jamming or deviation. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of this application is to provide a glass conveying structure inside the furnace to solve the above-mentioned problems. Through an efficient power transmission mechanism, it solves the problems of poor stability, weak load-bearing capacity and low power transmission efficiency of traditional glass conveying devices in high-temperature environments, and provides reliable technical support for continuous and efficient production in glass furnaces.

[0006] This application achieves the above objectives through the following technical solutions:

[0007] A glass conveying structure for use within a furnace includes a furnace, a conveyor car disposed within the furnace chamber, the conveyor car being configured to reciprocate along an X direction, and a power structure disposed on both sides of the furnace to drive the conveyor car. The conveyor car includes: a crossbeam and a U-shaped profile, the crossbeam and the U-shaped profile extending along Y and X respectively, multiple crossbeams arranged along the X direction, and two U-shaped profiles spaced apart along the Y direction and fixedly connected to both ends of the crossbeams. The power structure includes: a rotating shaft and wheels, the rotating shaft extending along Y and densely spaced along X, one end of the rotating shaft extending into the furnace and fixedly connected to the wheel at that end, the wheel being configured to be positioned within the groove of the U-shaped profile.

[0008] In some embodiments, the conveyor vehicle further includes: a column and an arc-shaped strip. The bottom of each crossbeam is fixedly connected to the arc-shaped strip via the column. Heat-resistant rollers are fixedly installed on the arc-shaped strips. A track for the heat-resistant rollers to roll is provided inside the kiln, and the track extends along X.

[0009] In some embodiments, the power structure further includes: a first bearing housing, a second bearing housing, a drive shaft, a first pulley, a drive belt, a second pulley, and a motor. The rotating shaft is connected to the outer wall of the kiln through the second bearing housing. The drive shaft extends along X and is connected to the outer wall of the kiln through the first bearing housing. A first pulley of equal number to the rotating shaft is provided on the drive shaft, and a second pulley is provided on the rotating shaft. The first pulley and the second pulley are connected by a semi-cross transmission of the drive belt. The motor is connected to the drive shaft through a belt drive structure.

[0010] In some embodiments, the grooves of the U-shaped profile face downwards so that the wheel is positioned within the grooves.

[0011] In some embodiments, the wheels are made of heat-resistant materials.

[0012] Compared to existing technologies, this application utilizes a U-shaped profile and groove combination: the groove structure of the U-shaped profile can completely embed the wheel, providing dual lateral and longitudinal restraints, significantly improving the stability of the conveyor vehicle's operation and preventing deviation caused by high-temperature expansion or mechanical vibration; a semi-cross drive belt design: the first pulley on the drive shaft is connected to the second pulley on the rotating shaft in a semi-cross manner, ensuring that all rotating shafts rotate synchronously, avoiding the jamming problem caused by accumulated errors in traditional chain drives or gear drives; long-stroke conveying capacity: the rotating shafts are densely distributed along the kiln channel, combined with the forward and reverse drive of the motor, enabling the conveyor vehicle to move back and forth over long distances in the X direction, adapting to the production needs of large kilns.

[0022] The technical solutions in the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, and not all embodiments.

[0023] In the description of this application, it should be understood that the terms "upper," "lower," "front," "back," "left," "right," "top," "bottom," "inner," and "outer," etc., indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the appendix. Figure 1 This description is provided for the convenience of describing this application and for the purpose of simplifying the description, and is not intended to indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be construed as a limitation of this application.

[0024] like Figure 1-2 As shown, a glass conveying structure for use within a furnace includes a furnace 1, a conveying vehicle disposed within the furnace chamber of the furnace 1, the conveying vehicle being configured to reciprocate along the X direction, and a power structure disposed on both sides of the furnace 1 to drive the conveying vehicle. The conveying vehicle includes: a crossbeam 2 and a U-shaped profile 3, the crossbeam 2 and the U-shaped profile 3 extending along the Y and X directions respectively, multiple crossbeams 2 being arranged along the X direction, and two U-shaped profiles 3 being spaced apart along the Y direction and fixedly connected to both ends of the crossbeams 2. The power structure includes: a rotating shaft 8 and wheels 9, the rotating shaft 8 extending along the Y direction and densely spaced along the X direction, one end of the rotating shaft 8 extending into the furnace 1, and a wheel 9 being fixedly connected to that end, the wheel 9 being configured to be positioned within the groove of the U-shaped profile 3.

[0025] The kiln 1 in this embodiment is prior art and will not be described in detail. There can be multiple conveyor vehicles to simultaneously transport multiple molds or glass. There are gaps between the multiple crossbeams 2 to facilitate the circulation of hot air. The U-shaped profile 3 is fixedly connected to both ends of the crossbeams 2 and can support the crossbeams 2, thereby supporting the molds or glass. At the same time, the structure of the U-shaped profile 3 gives it a groove, which allows the wheels 9 to be placed in the groove. The rotating shaft 8 is set along the channel of the kiln 1 and can cooperate with the wheels 9. By rotating, the wheels 9 roll, thereby transporting the conveyor vehicle to move along the channel of the kiln 1.

[0026] In some embodiments, the conveyor vehicle further includes: a column 4 and an arc-shaped strip 5. The bottom of each crossbeam 2 is fixedly connected to the arc-shaped strip 5 via the column 4. Heat-resistant rollers 7 are fixedly installed on each arc-shaped strip 5. A track 16 for the heat-resistant rollers 7 to roll is provided inside the kiln 1. The track 16 extends along X.

[0027] In this embodiment, the two ends of the arc-shaped strip 5 are fixedly connected to the vicinity of the two ends of the crossbeam 2 to increase the load-bearing capacity of the crossbeam 2. At the same time, the heat-resistant roller 7 is installed on the arc-shaped strip 5. When the conveyor moves, the heat-resistant roller 7 rolls synchronously on the track 16 to further improve the load-bearing capacity of the conveyor. The track 16 is set along the channel direction of the kiln 1.

[0028] In some embodiments, the power structure further includes: a first bearing housing 6, a second bearing housing 10, a drive shaft 11, a first pulley 12, a drive belt 13, a second pulley 14, and a motor 15. The rotating shaft 8 is connected to the outer wall of the kiln 1 through the second bearing housing 10. The drive shaft 11 extends along X and is connected to the outer wall of the kiln 1 through the first bearing housing 6. The drive shaft 11 is provided with a first pulley 12 of the same number as the rotating shaft 8, and the rotating shaft 8 is provided with a second pulley 14. The first pulley 12 and the second pulley 14 are connected by a semi-cross transmission through the drive belt 13. The motor 15 is connected to the drive shaft 11 through a belt drive structure.

[0029] In this embodiment, the second bearing seat 10 is located on both sides of the second pulley 14 on the rotating shaft 8 to stably support the rotation of the rotating shaft 8. The second bearing seat 10 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the kiln 1. The circumferential direction of the transmission shaft 11 is perpendicular to the axial direction of the rotating shaft 8. The rotation of the second bearing seat 10 is then transmitted through the first pulley 12. The semi-cross transmission method of the transmission belt 13 and the second pulley 14 can synchronously drive all the rotating shafts 8 above the second bearing seat 10 to rotate synchronously, providing the capability for long-stroke transport vehicles.

[0030] In some embodiments, the groove of the U-shaped profile 3 faces downward so that the wheel 9 is positioned within the groove so that the transport vehicle can be transported by the rotating wheel 9.

[0031] In some embodiments, the wheel 9 is made of heat-resistant material and can withstand the high temperatures inside the kiln 1.

[0032] In the above structure, the motor 15 drives the transmission shaft 11 to rotate, and the transmission shaft 11 synchronously drives the first pulley 12 to rotate. The first pulley 12 drives the second pulley 14 to rotate through the transmission belt 13. The transmission belt 13 is connected to the second pulley 14 in a semi-cross manner, so that the transmission shaft 11 can synchronously drive all the rotating shafts 8 to rotate. After the rotating shafts 8 rotate, the wheels 9 rotate synchronously, so that the wheels 9 can roll and transport the trolley structure to transport the mold or glass on the trolley. The motor 15 drives the transmission shaft 11 to rotate in both directions to realize the reciprocating transport of the trolley.

Those skilled in the art should understand that this application is not limited to the above embodiments. The embodiments and descriptions in the specification are merely illustrative of the principles of this application.
