[0001] This utility model relates to the field of optical glass production technology, specifically to a mixing device for optical glass production. Background Technology
[0002] Optical glass includes colored optical glass, laser glass, quartz optical glass, radiation-resistant glass, ultraviolet-infrared optical glass, fiber optic glass, acousto-optic glass, magneto-optic glass, and photochromic glass. During the production of optical glass, a mixing device is typically used to mix and stir various raw materials.
[0003] In existing technologies, when mixing raw materials for optical glass, the raw materials tend to clump together due to moisture in humid storage environments. This clumping makes the raw materials difficult to mix, resulting in low mixing efficiency and affecting the mixing quality. A mixing device for optical glass production is needed to solve these problems. Utility Model Content

This utility model has a reasonable structure and high mixing efficiency and quality.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model is implemented through the following technical solution: a mixing device for optical glass production, comprising:
[0006] The housing has a feed channel at its top and a stirring assembly for mixing optical glass raw materials on its surface.
[0007] A dispersion cylinder is provided on the top of the shell, a first filter screen is provided inside the feed channel at a downward angle, a second filter screen is provided inside the dispersion cylinder below the first filter screen, and a guide channel is provided on the side wall of the feed channel for guiding the agglomerated optical glass raw material filtered by the first filter screen into the interior of the dispersion cylinder.
[0008] A drive motor is provided at the top of the dispersion cylinder, and a dispersion component located inside the dispersion cylinder is provided on the output shaft of the drive motor. An annular heating plate is provided on the side wall of the dispersion cylinder.

[0027] To make the technical means, creative features, objectives and effects of this utility model easier to understand, the present utility model will be further described below in conjunction with specific embodiments.
[0028] like Figure 1 As shown, this utility model provides a technical solution: a mixing device for optical glass production, comprising:
[0029] The housing 1 has a feed channel 2 at its top and a stirring assembly 7 for mixing optical glass raw materials on its surface.
[0030] The top of the shell 1 is provided with a dispersion cylinder 4, the inside of the feed channel 2 is provided with a first filter screen 21 inclined downward, the inside of the dispersion cylinder 4 is provided with a second filter screen 41 located below the first filter screen 21, and the side wall of the feed channel 2 is provided with a guide channel 3 for guiding the agglomerated optical glass raw material filtered by the first filter screen 21 into the inside of the dispersion cylinder 4.
[0031] A drive motor 5 is installed at the top of the dispersion cylinder 4. A dispersing component 13 located inside the dispersion cylinder 4 is mounted on the output shaft of the drive motor 5. An annular heating plate 8 is installed on the side wall of the dispersion cylinder 4. This design involves placing the optical glass raw material into the feed channel 2. The non-clumping raw material passes through the first filter screen 21 into the housing 1, where it is stirred by the stirring component 7. The clumping raw material flows along the inclined surface of the first filter screen 21 into the guide channel 3 and the dispersion cylinder 4, finally falling onto the surface of the second filter screen 41. The annular heating plate 8 heats the clumping raw material, causing the moisture at the clumps to evaporate and the raw material to return to a loose state. The drive motor 5 drives the dispersing component 13 to rotate, accelerating the loosening of the clumping raw material. The loosened raw material passes through the second filter screen 41 into the housing 1, where it is stirred by the stirring component 7. This prevents the clumping raw material from being difficult to mix, improving mixing efficiency and quality. The top of the dispersion cylinder 4 has an outlet to facilitate the outflow of water vapor after heating. A solenoid valve can be installed at the outlet to control the flow of gas.
[0032] Reference Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 The feed channel 2 has a square cross-section. The feed channel 2 has an outlet 22 located above the first filter screen 21 on the side near the dispersing cylinder 4. The dispersing cylinder 4 has an arc-shaped feed trough 42 located above the second filter screen 41 on the side near the feed channel 2.
[0033] The guide channel 3 includes a square inclined channel 31 disposed on the side wall of the feed channel 2 and used to cover the discharge port 22. An arc-shaped groove 32 is formed on the side of the square inclined channel 31 away from the feed channel 2 to cover the arc-shaped feed trough 42. This design, through the square inclined channel 31 and the arc-shaped groove 32 in the guide channel 3, facilitates the raw material to enter the arc-shaped feed trough 42 from the discharge port 22 and finally fall into the dispersion cylinder 4.
[0034] Reference Figure 4 and Figure 5 The dispersing component 13 includes a rotating shaft 131 disposed inside the dispersing cylinder 4 and connected to the output shaft of the drive motor 5. Multiple dispersing plates 132 are disposed on the side wall of the rotating shaft 131 above the second filter screen 41. This design uses the drive motor 5 to rotate the rotating shaft 131 in the dispersing component 13, which in turn causes the dispersing plates 132 to rotate, thus breaking up any agglomerated raw materials on the second filter screen 41.
[0035] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 3 The side wall of the dispersion cylinder 4 is provided with an annular support plate 9 for supporting the annular heating plate 8. This design facilitates the support of the annular heating plate 8 through the annular support plate 9.
[0036] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 4 A conical groove is provided on the lower side of the inner wall of the dispersion cylinder 4, and a guide pipe 12 is provided at the bottom of the dispersion cylinder 4 to connect the conical groove with the inside of the shell 1. This design facilitates the flow of raw materials that have been restored to a loose state inside the dispersion cylinder 4 to the inside of the shell 1 through the conical groove and the guide pipe 12.
[0037] Reference Figure 2 The mixing assembly 7 includes a mixing motor 71 mounted on the top of the housing 1. The output shaft of the mixing motor 71 is equipped with a mixing shaft 72 located inside the housing 1, and multiple mixing plates 73 are provided on the side wall of the mixing shaft 72. This design uses the rotation of the mixing shaft 72 in the mixing assembly 7 to drive the mixing plates 73 to rotate, thereby mixing and blending the raw materials.
[0038] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 The top of the housing 1 is equipped with a heat insulation plate 6 located between the stirring motor 71 and the dispersion cylinder 4. This improves the rationality of the design.
[0039] Reference Figure 1 The bottom of the housing 1 is provided with a discharge pipe 10, and the side wall of the discharge pipe 10 is provided with a discharge valve 11. This design facilitates the discharge of the mixed raw materials through the discharge pipe 10 and the discharge valve 11.
[0040] Reference Figures 1-6 As an embodiment of this utility model: when it is necessary to mix the raw materials of optical glass, the operator puts the raw materials of optical glass into the feed channel 2. The non-clumping raw materials enter the housing 1 through the first filter screen 21, and the non-clumping raw materials are stirred by the stirring component 7 first.
[0041] The clumped raw materials enter the guide channel 3 and the dispersion cylinder 4 along the inclined surface of the first filter screen 21, and finally fall onto the surface of the second filter screen 41. The annular heating plate 8 heats the clumped raw materials, causing the moisture at the clumps to evaporate and the raw materials to return to a loose state. The drive motor 5 drives the dispersion component 13 to rotate, which stirs the clumped raw materials, accelerating the loosening process. The loosened raw materials pass through the second filter screen 41 and enter the housing 1. The stirring motor 71 in the stirring assembly 7 drives the stirring shaft 72 to rotate, which in turn drives the stirring plate 73 to rotate, mixing the raw materials. This prevents the clumped raw materials from being difficult to mix, improves mixing efficiency and quality, and enhances the practicality of this invention.
