Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of glass cleaning technology, and in particular to a glass cleaning machine with a water circulation system. Background Technology
[0002] In the glass recycling industry, the cleaning of broken glass is a key step in realizing its recycling. With the rapid development of modern industry, glass products are widely used in construction, electronics, packaging and other fields, which has led to a continuous increase in the amount of glass waste, making the importance of broken glass recycling increasingly prominent.
[0003] Currently, the quality of glass cleaning technologies on the market varies greatly. Some small recycling stations still use manual cleaning methods, which are not only labor-intensive but also extremely inefficient. Some mechanical cleaning equipment uses a relatively simple cleaning principle, mostly just spraying water. In addition, most cleaning equipment lacks a complete water circulation system, resulting in serious waste of water resources.
[0004] Existing glass recycling technologies suffer from a series of problems. Manual cleaning is inefficient and ineffective because it is limited by individual differences and cannot thoroughly remove stubborn stains. Simple spray-type mechanical cleaning equipment is also incomplete, mainly because its cleaning method lacks specificity and does not take into account the characteristics of different stains. Furthermore, the structural design of the cleaning equipment cannot meet the needs of deep cleaning, and the imperfect water circulation system leads to water waste. These problems seriously restrict the efficient implementation of glass recycling and cleaning work, increase the operating costs of enterprises, and hinder the sustainable development of the glass recycling industry. Utility Model Content
[0005] In view of the above-mentioned shortcomings of the existing technology, the present invention provides a glass washing machine with a water circulation system, which can effectively solve the problems mentioned in the background art.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:
[0007] This utility model provides a glass washing machine with a water circulation system, including a support frame. The support frame body is equipped with several water tanks, which are hollow structures. The water tanks form a ring structure. Each water tank has a water inlet at the center of its outer ring wall. A directional water valve is rotatably connected to the inner ring wall of the water tank. A dust-blocking layer is fixedly connected to the rear side of the water tank. The dust-blocking layer is a cylindrical structure with a radius smaller than that of the water tank. A second gear is provided at the front end of the dust-blocking layer. A water washing layer is rotatably connected to the end of the dust-blocking layer near the second gear. The end of the water washing layer away from the second gear is rotatably connected to the rear end of the support frame. The water washing layer and the dust-blocking layer are respectively provided with sieve holes. The radius of the sieve holes in the water washing layer is larger than that in the dust-blocking layer.
[0008] Furthermore, a spiral guide plate is provided along the inner wall of the washing layer, and a spiral brush is provided along the outer wall of the washing layer, with the outer side of the brush closely attached to the inner wall of the dust-blocking layer.
[0009] Furthermore, a first gear is provided at one end of the dust-blocking layer near the second gear, and the first gear and the second gear are positioned opposite each other and facing opposite directions.
[0010] Furthermore, the directional water valve is a cylinder with an opening that is larger at the top and smaller at the bottom along the side wall of the cylinder in its middle part, and a counterweight is provided on the side of the directional water valve with the smaller opening.
[0011] Furthermore, a motor is provided at the front end of the bracket, and an output gear is provided at the output end of the motor. The two sides of the output gear mesh with the first gear and the second gear respectively.
[0012] Furthermore, a water tank is provided on the upper side of the middle part of the support, a water injection pipe is provided on the lower side of the water tank, a sealing ring is provided in the middle of the support, the upper side of the sealing ring is connected to the water injection pipe, the water injection pipe is matched with the water inlet, and a dust removal port is provided on the lower side of the rear end of the support.
[0013] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0014] 1. This utility model features a unique double-layer screening and spiral structure. The washing layer and the dust-blocking layer are equipped with screens of different aperture sizes. The washing layer has a spiral guide plate inside and a spiral brush on the outer wall. The broken glass is turned over and moved backward by the spiral guide plate in the washing layer. The washing water and dust fall through the screen to the dust-blocking layer. The smaller screen apertures of the dust-blocking layer can retain dust, which is then scraped off and discharged by the spiral brush. This structural design makes the washing and dust separation process efficient and orderly, greatly improving the washing quality of broken glass, effectively removing impurities from the surface of broken glass, and ensuring that the recycled broken glass can meet the cleaning requirements for reprocessing.
[0015] 2. This utility model is equipped with a complete water circulation system. The water tank, directional water valve, water tank and sealing ring cooperate with each other. The water tank collects water that seeps from the ash-blocking layer. The counterweight of the directional water valve ensures that its opening faces upward, so that the water flows out with the rotation of the water tank and participates in the cleaning again. The sealing ring ensures that the water tank can replenish the water lost from the water tank in time. This not only realizes the recycling of water resources, but also greatly reduces water waste in the cleaning process, reduces production costs, and reduces sewage discharge, which has good environmental benefits.

[0023] To make the above-mentioned objectives, features and advantages of this utility model more apparent and understandable, the specific embodiments of this utility model will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Example
[0024] Reference Figure 1-3 This is the first embodiment of the present invention, which provides a glass cleaning machine with a water circulation system, including a support 1. Several water tanks 4 are arranged inside the main body of the support 1 near the outer ring of the support and concentric with the outer ring of the support 1. The water tanks 4 are hollow structures, and the several water tanks 4 form a circular structure. This circular structure design can make full use of space and facilitate the circulation of water. Each water tank 4 has a water inlet 42 at the center of its outer ring wall for introducing cleaning water. The inner ring wall of the water tank 4 is rotatably connected to a directional water valve 41, which can control the direction of water flow and the timing of water flow.
[0025] A dust-blocking layer 3 is fixedly connected to the rear side of the water tank 4. The dust-blocking layer 3 is a cylindrical structure with a radius smaller than that of the water tank 4. This structural design is conducive to the collection and sedimentation of dust. A second gear 31 is provided at the front end of the dust-blocking layer 3. A water washing layer 2 is rotatably connected to the end of the dust-blocking layer 3 near the second gear 31. The end of the water washing layer 2 away from the second gear 31 is rotatably connected to the rear end of the support 1. The water washing layer 2 and the dust-blocking layer 3 are respectively provided with sieve holes. The radius of the sieve hole of the water washing layer 2 is larger than that of the sieve hole of the dust-blocking layer 3. This sieve hole design can achieve effective separation of washing water and dust.
[0026] A spiral guide plate 22 is provided along the inner wall of the washing layer 2. The spiral guide plate 22 can guide the broken glass to turn over and move backward in the washing layer 2 to ensure that the broken glass can be thoroughly cleaned. A spiral brush 23 is provided along the outer wall of the washing layer 2. The outer side of the spiral brush 23 is in close contact with the inner wall of the dust-blocking layer 3. The spiral brush 23 can scrape off the dust on the dust-blocking layer 3 and assist in the discharge of dust.
[0027] The dust-blocking layer 3 has a first gear 21 at one end near the second gear 31. The first gear 21 and the second gear 31 are positioned opposite each other and face opposite directions. This gear arrangement allows the washing layer 2 and the dust-blocking layer 3 to rotate in opposite directions, enhancing the cleaning and dust separation effect. Example
[0028] Reference Figure 1-4 This is the second embodiment of the present invention, which differs from the first embodiment in that:
[0029] The directional water valve 41 is a cylinder with an opening that is larger at the top and smaller at the bottom along the side wall of the cylinder. This opening design facilitates the control of water inflow and outflow. A counterweight 411 is provided on the side of the directional water valve 41 with the smaller opening. The counterweight 411 can keep the directional water valve 41 with the opening facing upward, ensuring normal water circulation.
[0030] A motor 11 is provided at the front end of the bracket 1. An output gear 111 is provided at the output end of the motor 11. The two sides of the output gear 111 mesh with the first gear 21 and the second gear 31 respectively. The motor 11 drives the first gear 21 and the second gear 31 through the output gear 111, thereby driving the water washing layer 2 and the dust blocking layer 3 to rotate.
[0031] A water tank 12 is provided on the upper side of the middle part of the support 1, and a water injection pipe 121 is provided on the lower side of the water tank 12. A sealing ring 5 is provided in the middle of the support 1, and the upper side of the sealing ring 5 is connected to the water injection pipe 121. The water injection pipe 121 is matched with the water inlet 42. The sealing ring 5 can prevent water leakage and ensure that the water in the water tank 12 can be smoothly replenished to the water tank 4. A dust removal port 13 is provided on the lower side of the rear end of the support 1. The dust removal port 13 is used to discharge the dust collected during the cleaning process.
[0032] The remaining structure is the same as that in Example 1.
[0033] The specific operating principle of this utility model is as follows:
[0034] First, during the equipment startup and broken glass feeding stage, after the equipment is placed stably and the power is connected, the motor 11 is started. The motor 11 is located at the front end of the support 1, and the output gear 111 at its output end rotates accordingly. The two sides of the output gear 111 mesh with the second gear 31 at the front end of the dust-blocking layer 3 and the first gear 21 near the end of the second gear 31, respectively. Driven by the motor 11, the first gear 21 and the second gear 31 drive the washing layer 2 and the dust-blocking layer 3 to start rotating in opposite directions. At this time, the broken glass to be cleaned is put into the washing layer 2 from the front end of the equipment.
[0035] Secondly, in the stage of broken glass cleaning and dust separation, after the broken glass enters the water washing layer 2, the spiral guide plate 22 on the inner wall of the water washing layer 2 plays a role. As the water washing layer 2 is constantly rotating, the spiral guide plate 22 guides the broken glass to move backward while turning. During this process, the water in the water tank 12 flows into the water tank 4 through the water inlet 42 in the center of the outer ring wall of the water tank 4 via the water injection pipe 121, and then flows out from the directional water valve 41 to rinse the broken glass. The water and dust generated from cleaning the broken glass leak down through the screen holes of the water washing layer 2 to the dust blocking layer 3. The radius of the screen holes of the water washing layer 2 is larger than that of the screen holes of the dust blocking layer 3, so the dust blocking layer 3 can block the dust, while the water continues to seep out. At the same time, the spiral brush 23 on the outer wall of the water washing layer 2 is close to the inner wall of the dust blocking layer 3. As both rotate, the spiral brush 23 scrapes off the dust attached to the dust blocking layer 3 and makes it move backward in the dust blocking layer 3. Finally, the dust is discharged from the dust removal port 13 on the lower side of the rear end of the support 1.
[0036] Finally, in the water recycling stage, the water seeping from the ash-blocking layer 3 enters the water tank 4 below. The water tank 4 has a hollow structure and is arranged in a ring. The special concave shape of the inner wall of the water tank 4 allows the water to naturally converge at the directional water valve 41 in the middle. The directional water valve 41 is a cylinder with an opening that is larger at the top and smaller at the bottom along the side wall in the middle. The counterweight 411 is set on the side with the smaller opening, so that the directional water valve 41 always keeps the opening facing upward. As the water tank 4 rotates upward during the operation of the equipment, when the water tank 4 reaches the top, the water in the water tank 4 flows out from the directional water valve 41 and participates in the cleaning of broken glass again. In this process, the sealing ring 5 in the middle of the support 1 plays a key role. It blocks the water inlet 42 on the outside of the water tank 4, ensuring that when the water tank 4 reaches the top, the water in the water tank 12 is replenished into the water tank 4 in time through the water injection pipe 121 and the water inlet 42 to make up for the water loss during the cleaning process, realize the recycling of water resources, and ensure the continuous and stable operation of the equipment.
