Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of glaze production equipment, specifically a defoaming device for the production of water-based environmentally friendly metal ceramic glazes. Background Technology

[0002] Metal-ceramic glazes are composite glazes that combine the properties of metallic materials with the functions of ceramic glazes. They are mainly used for the decoration and performance modification of ceramic products, possessing both decorative and functional properties. Their core characteristic is the integration of metallic components into traditional ceramic glaze systems to achieve a combination of metallic texture and ceramic performance. They are widely used in architectural ceramics, daily-use ceramics, and industrial ceramics, satisfying decorative needs while enhancing the durability and functionality of ceramic products.

[0003] During the production of water-based environmentally friendly metal ceramic glazes, a large number of bubbles are easily generated due to the mixing and stirring of raw materials. If these bubbles are not eliminated in time, they will affect the performance and quality of the glaze, such as causing uneven glaze coating, pinholes, and shrinkage cavities. Currently, traditional stirring methods, which only use rotation in one direction or simple paddle structures, are insufficient to break the surface tension of the tiny bubbles in the glaze, resulting in bubble residue that affects the uniformity of the glaze and the quality of subsequent coatings. To address these issues, a defoaming device for the production of water-based environmentally friendly metal ceramic glazes is proposed. Utility Model Content

[0004] In order to solve the above problems, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a defoaming device for the production of water-based environmentally friendly metal ceramic glaze.

[0019] 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.

[0020] Example: Figures 1-4 As shown, this utility model provides a defoaming device for the production of water-based environmentally friendly metal ceramic glazes, including a workbench 1 and a support platform 2 installed on one end of the surface of the workbench 1. A first support rod 3 is provided on the top of the support platform 2, and a defoaming component is provided at the end of the first support rod 3 away from the support platform 2. The defoaming component includes a rotating column 301 installed at one end of the first support rod 3. A connecting rod 302 is rotatably connected to one side of the bottom of the rotating column 301. A slot is opened inside the connecting rod 302, and a stirring rod 303 is provided in the slot. A second support rod 304 is sleeved in the middle of the stirring rod 303. The other end of the second support rod 304 is fixedly connected to the support platform 2. A first gear 305 is provided below the stirring rod 303 near the second support rod 304. A third support rod 307 is fitted below the 5, and the other end of the third support rod 307 is fixedly connected to the support platform 2. A conical impeller 308 is provided at the bottom of the stirring rod 303. A fixing rod 4 is provided at the end of the third support rod 307 away from the support platform 2. A gear 402 is provided at the top of the fixing rod 4. A belt 403 is provided outside the gear 402. The gear 402 is connected to the bottom of the rotating column 301 through the belt 403. The motor drives the rotating column 301 to rotate counterclockwise, and drives the gear 402 to rotate synchronously through the belt 403, so that the stirring rod 303 revolves. It adopts a large-diameter conical structure with spiral guide grooves distributed on the surface. When rotating, it generates a downward axial flow, which entrains the surface foam into the liquid. Combined with the negative pressure zone formed by the high-speed rotation at the bottom, it accelerates the foam breaking.

[0021] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, a second gear 401 is fitted above the fixed rod 4 near the third support rod 307, and the second gear 401 meshes with the first gear 305. Gear 402 is coaxial with the second gear 401, driving the second gear 401 to mesh with the first gear 305, causing the stirring rod 303 to rotate clockwise. Combined with the aforementioned revolution, this differential motion between revolution and rotation generates a strong shear force, which more effectively defoams. Arc-shaped spherical shapes 306 are fitted below the stirring rod 303 near the second support rod 304 and near the third support rod 307. Two sets of upper and lower arc-shaped spherical shapes 306 limiting structures are set on the stirring rod 303, forming a sliding pair with the second support rod 304 and the third support rod 307, ensuring the stability of the stirring rod 303 during oscillation, while allowing appropriate axial float compensation to adapt to the defoaming requirements of different liquid levels.

[0022] Reference Figure 4 As shown, several ultrasonic transducers 6 are arranged on the inner wall of the mixing tank, and an ultrasonic generator 601 is arranged on the surface of the worktable 1. The ultrasonic generator 601 is connected to the ultrasonic transducers 6. Six to eight ultrasonic transducers 6 are evenly distributed on the inner wall of the mixing tank. The surface of the ultrasonic transducers 6 is installed at an inclined angle to the tank wall, so that the ultrasonic waves form cross reflections in the liquid, which enhances the coverage of the cavitation effect. When the mechanical stirring breaks the foam into tiny bubbles, the high-frequency pressure fluctuations generated by the ultrasonic waves cause the bubbles to implode. The released shock waves further disintegrate the residual foam in the liquid.

[0023] Obviously, those skilled in the art can make various modifications and variations to this utility model without departing from its spirit and scope. Therefore, if these modifications and variations fall within the scope of the claims of this utility model and their equivalents, this utility model also intends to include these modifications and variations.
