Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of porcelain clay preparation technology, specifically to an automatic rolling device for porcelain clay. Background Technology
[0002] In the field of ceramic ware manufacturing, porcelain clay blanks, as the core raw material, are usually made by scientifically combining clay with other soil materials. Their performance indicators directly affect the quality of ceramic products. The preparation of porcelain clay blanks is a complex and delicate process, encompassing key technological steps such as kneading, throwing, trimming, and rolling. Precise control of each process plays a decisive role in the quality and appearance of the final product.
[0003] A search revealed that patent application CN216465207U discloses an automatic rolling device for porcelain clay blanks. While this device has low safety risks, a simple structure, low cost, and is easy to maintain, its operation is hampered by the fact that the clay blanks are mostly in an open processing environment during rolling, making it difficult to effectively control environmental parameters such as humidity and temperature. Under such conditions, the clay blanks are prone to drying too quickly due to rapid moisture evaporation, leading to changes in their physical properties. This significantly increases the probability of quality problems such as cracks and deformation during rolling, affecting not only the product qualification rate but also reducing production efficiency and increasing manufacturing costs. Therefore, there is an urgent need to improve and refine existing porcelain clay blank rolling processing devices to overcome these technical challenges. Utility Model Content
[0004] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides an automatic rolling device for porcelain clay blanks, which solves the problems mentioned in the background art.
[0005] The solution to the above-mentioned technical problems provided by this utility model is as follows:
[0006] An automatic rolling device for porcelain clay blanks includes a processing panel and a frame. The frame is provided on the processing panel, and rolling wheels are rotatably mounted in the frame via a mounting bracket.
[0007] A frame is fixedly installed on the bottom surface of the processing panel, a drive motor and a guide rod are installed on the frame, and a lead screw is provided on the output end of the drive motor;
[0008] The frame is equipped with a first fixed frame and a second fixed frame at its two ends respectively. The first fixed frame is equipped with an atomizing nozzle installed through a spray pipe, and the second fixed frame is equipped with an air outlet pipe. The air outlet pipe is provided with a number of evenly distributed electric heating tubes.
[0009] Based on the above technical solution, the present invention can be further improved as follows.
[0010] Furthermore, a base plate is bolted to the bottom end face of the mounting bracket, and a guide block is fixedly mounted on the bottom end face of the base plate. The guide block is slidably sleeved on the guide rod, and the guide block is threaded onto the lead screw.
[0011] The beneficial effects of adopting the above-mentioned further solutions are:
[0012] After the operator places the clay blank to be processed on the processing panel, they turn on the drive motor to rotate the lead screw. Because the guide block is threaded onto the lead screw and slidably sleeved on the guide rod, the guide rod acts as a guide, allowing the guide block to move linearly along the lead screw. This, in turn, moves the mounting frame and the rolling roller together. This allows for adjustment of the rolling roller's position on the processing panel, enabling rolling operations on clay blanks at different locations.
[0013] Furthermore, a support rod is installed on the bottom surface of the processing panel, and an anti-slip pad is fitted onto the bottom surface of the support rod.
[0014] The beneficial effects of adopting the above-mentioned further solutions are:
[0015] The support rods provide support for the processing panel, ensuring its stability. The anti-slip pads increase the friction between the support rods and the ground.
[0016] Furthermore, an external connecting pipe is installed on the spray pipe, and the external connecting pipe is in liquid communication with the spray pipe.
[0017] The beneficial effects of adopting the above-mentioned further solutions are:
[0018] The external pipe allows for easy connection of a water pump to an external water source, providing water for the spray pipes. During water supply, the atomizing nozzles on the external pipe spray water mist to regulate the moisture content of the clay blanks. This prevents the clay blanks from cracking due to excessively low moisture levels caused by environmental factors, thus improving the processing quality of the clay blanks. Furthermore, the spray pipes can move with the machine frame to spray the clay blanks before rolling.
[0019] Furthermore, an air inlet pipe is embedded and fixed at the top end of the air outlet pipe, the air inlet pipe is connected to the air outlet pipe for gas communication, and a fan is installed inside the air inlet pipe.
[0020] The beneficial effects of adopting the above-mentioned further solutions are:
[0021] After the blower starts, it draws outside air into the outlet pipe through the inlet pipe. The air is heated as it passes through the heating element in the outlet pipe, forming hot air. This hot air dries the clay blanks and regulates their moisture content. Furthermore, the outlet pipe moves with the machine frame and is used for drying after rolling, preventing the clay blanks from becoming too moist after rolling and affecting subsequent production.
[0022] Furthermore, an exhaust pipe is embedded and fixed on the side end face of the exhaust pipe, and the exhaust pipe is in gas communication with the exhaust pipe.
[0023] The beneficial effects of adopting the above-mentioned further solutions are:
[0024] Air passing through the heating element can be discharged through the exhaust pipe, thereby heating and drying the clay.
[0025] This utility model provides an automatic rolling device for porcelain clay blanks. It has the following beneficial effects:
[0026] The drive motor drives the lead screw to rotate, causing the guide block to move linearly along the lead screw, which in turn drives the rolling roller to move. This allows for rolling operations on clay blanks at different positions on the processing panel, improving the applicability and flexibility of the device.
[0027] The external nozzle facilitates connection to a water source, and the spray nozzles spray water mist to regulate the humidity of the clay blanks, preventing them from cracking due to excessively low humidity caused by environmental factors, thus improving the processing quality of the clay blanks. Furthermore, the spray pipes can move with the frame, allowing for spraying of the clay blanks before rolling.
[0028] A blower draws in outside air through an exhaust pipe, which is then heated by electric heating elements to create hot air for drying the clay blanks. The exhaust pipe moves with the frame, drying the clay blanks after rolling to prevent excessive moisture from affecting subsequent production. Furthermore, the exhaust pipe allows air passing through the heating elements to escape, further enhancing the heating and drying process.
[0029] This device, through motor-driven rolling roller movement and automatic spraying and drying functions, reduces manual operation, improves production efficiency and product quality stability, and facilitates the automated production of porcelain clay blanks. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation
[0038] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0039] Please see Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the embodiments provided by this utility model are as follows:
[0040] Example 1
[0041] An automatic rolling device for porcelain clay blanks includes a processing panel 1 and a frame 2. The frame 2 is provided on the processing panel 1. A rolling roller 203 is rotatably mounted in the frame 2 via a mounting bracket 201. The rolling roller 203 can rotate flexibly in the frame 2 and is used to roll the porcelain clay blanks placed on the processing panel 1 to shape the clay blanks.
[0042] A frame 102 is fixedly installed on the bottom surface of the processing panel 1. A drive motor 103 and a guide rod 105 are installed on the frame 102. A lead screw 104 is provided on the output end of the drive motor 103.
[0043] The first fixed frame 3 and the second fixed frame 4 are respectively installed at both ends of the frame 2. The atomizing nozzle 302 is installed in the first fixed frame 3 through the spray pipe 301. The air outlet pipe 401 is fixedly installed in the second fixed frame 4. Several evenly distributed electric heating tubes 404 are arranged in the air outlet pipe 401.
[0044] A base plate 202 is bolted to the bottom surface of the mounting frame 201. A guide block 204 is fixedly mounted on the bottom surface of the base plate 202. The guide block 204 is slidably sleeved on the guide rod 105 and threadedly mounted on the lead screw 104. When the operator places the clay blank to be processed on the processing panel 1 and turns on the drive motor 103 to rotate the lead screw 104, the guide block 204, being threadedly mounted on the lead screw 104 and slidably sleeved on the guide rod 105, acts as a guide, allowing the guide block 204 to move linearly along the lead screw 104. This, in turn, moves the mounting frame 201 and the rolling roller 203 together. This allows for the adjustment of the position of the rolling roller 203 on the processing panel 1, enabling rolling operations on clay blanks at different positions.
[0045] A support rod 101 is installed on the bottom surface of the processing panel 1, and an anti-slip pad is fitted onto the bottom surface of the support rod 101. The support rod 101 provides support for the processing panel 1, ensuring its stability. The anti-slip pad increases the friction between the support rod 101 and the ground.
[0046] An external pipe 303 is installed on the spray pipe 301. The external pipe 303 is in liquid communication with the spray pipe 301 and can be easily connected to a water pump to provide water to the spray pipe 301. During water supply, water mist is sprayed through the atomizing nozzle 302 on the external pipe 303 to regulate the humidity of the clay blank. This can prevent the clay blank from cracking due to excessively low humidity caused by environmental influences, thus improving the processing quality of the clay blank. Furthermore, the spray pipe 301 can move with the frame 2 to spray the clay blank before rolling.
[0047] Example 2
[0048] To avoid excessive moisture in the porcelain clay after spraying and pressing, which could affect subsequent processing, for example, such as Figures 1 to 4 As shown, this utility model also includes:
[0049] An air inlet pipe 402 is embedded and fixed at the top surface of the air outlet pipe 401. The air inlet pipe 402 is in gas communication with the air outlet pipe 401. A fan 403 is installed inside the air inlet pipe 402. When the fan 403 is started, it can draw outside air into the air outlet pipe 401 through the air inlet pipe 402. The drawn-in air is heated when it passes through the electric heating element 404 inside the air outlet pipe 401, forming hot air. The hot air can dry the clay blank and regulate its humidity. Furthermore, the air outlet pipe 401 moves with the frame 2 and is used for drying after rolling, avoiding excessive moisture in the clay blank after rolling, which would affect subsequent production.
[0050] An exhaust pipe 405 is embedded and fixed on the side end face of the exhaust pipe 401. The exhaust pipe 405 is connected to the exhaust pipe 401 for gas communication. The air passing through the electric heating tube 404 can be discharged through the exhaust pipe 405, thereby heating and drying the clay.
[0051] Working principle:
[0052] The personnel place the clay blanks that need to be processed on processing panel 1.
[0053] The operator turns on the drive motor 103, and the output end of the drive motor 103 drives the lead screw 104 to rotate. Since the guide block 204 is threadedly installed on the lead screw 104 and slidably sleeved on the guide rod 105, the guide rod 105 plays a guiding role, allowing the guide block 204 to move linearly along the lead screw 104, thereby driving the mounting frame 201 and the rolling roller 203 to move together, realizing the position adjustment of the rolling roller 203 on the processing panel 1, and performing the rolling operation on the clay blank.
[0054] Before rolling, if it is necessary to adjust the moisture content of the clay blank, a water pump can be connected to an external water source through the external pipe 303 to provide water to the spray pipe 301. When water is supplied, water mist is sprayed out through the atomizing nozzle 302 on the external pipe 303 to adjust the moisture content of the clay blank. The spray pipe 301 can move with the frame 2 to spray the clay blank before rolling.
[0055] After rolling is completed, the blower 403 is started, and the blower 403 draws outside air into the outlet pipe 401 through the inlet pipe 402. The air drawn in is heated as it passes through the electric heating tube 404 in the outlet pipe 401, forming hot air to dry the rolled clay blank and adjust the humidity of the clay blank. The outlet pipe 401 moves with the frame 2.
[0056] The foregoing has shown and described the basic principles, main features, and advantages of this utility model. It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that this utility model is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that it can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or basic characteristics of this utility model.
