Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of grouting and molding auxiliary equipment, and in particular to a grouting frame for processing ceramic handicrafts. Background Technology
[0002] In the production of ceramic handicrafts, slip casting is a crucial process for preparing the blank. Traditionally, plaster molds are placed on simple supports or workbenches for slip casting.
[0003] However, existing technologies have significant drawbacks. On the one hand, ordinary supports lack adaptable clamping mechanisms, making it impossible to effectively fix ceramic blanks of different sizes and shapes. During grouting, uneven slurry distribution due to blank displacement can easily lead to deformation or cracking defects, resulting in a low finished product qualification rate and requiring frequent manual adjustments. On the other hand, overflowing slurry wastewater drips directly onto the workbench or ground, not only polluting the working environment and increasing cleaning costs, but also causing solidified slurry to clog drainage channels, and long-term accumulation can affect the service life of the equipment. Although some equipment attempts to add water collection trays, the static water collection structure cannot adapt to the height adjustment requirements of the grouting frame, resulting in low waste liquid collection efficiency.
[0004] Therefore, a grouting frame for ceramic handicraft processing is proposed to improve the standardization and environmental friendliness of ceramic handicraft production. Utility Model Content
[0005] To overcome the technical defects of existing technologies, this utility model provides a grouting rack for processing ceramic handicrafts. The technical solution adopted by this utility model includes a clamping structure located below the main body, and a water collection structure located below the clamping structure.
[0006] The water collection structure includes a water inlet plate, a transmission rod fixedly installed below the water inlet plate, a water-proof pipe movably sleeved on the outside of the transmission rod, a water storage tank fixedly installed below the water-proof pipe, a drain pipe provided on one side of the water storage tank, and a water plug movably sleeved inside the drain pipe.
[0007] The clamping structure includes a clamping plate, a limiting block is movably sleeved on the outer side of one end of the clamping plate, a small gear is movably sleeved below the limiting block, the small gear meshes with a large gear, and a clamping block is movably sleeved inside the large gear.
[0008] Furthermore, by linking the stacked clamping structure with the water collection structure, the overflow wastewater from grouting is automatically collected while the ceramic blank is stably fixed, thus achieving an integrated positioning and overflow prevention function.
[0009] Preferably, the end of the clamping block is fixed to the end of the clamping plate, and the working surface of the clamping block is provided with anti-slip texture.
[0010] Furthermore, this structure achieves stable clamping and anti-slip function for the ceramic blank by fixing the end of the clamping block to the end of the clamping plate and setting anti-slip texture.
[0011] Preferably, the drain pipe has a spiral flow guiding structure inside, and the water plug is a threaded conical rubber plug. The two are sealed and opened / closed by screwing together.
[0012] Furthermore, the waste liquid diversion path is optimized and the water storage tank is sealed to achieve controllable discharge and leak prevention of mud wastewater.
[0013] Preferably, the surface of the water inlet plate has an annular groove structure and is provided with four water inlets.
[0014] Furthermore, this structure, through a spiral flow guide design combined with a threaded sealing plug, achieves the dual functions of preventing blockage during waste liquid discharge and facilitating easy cleaning of the water storage tank.
[0015] Preferably, the clamping block is an arc-shaped rubber pad, fixed to the end of the clamping plate, for fitting against the outer wall of the ceramic blank.
[0016] Furthermore, the clamping block, as an arc-shaped rubber pad fixed to the end of the clamping plate, has the core function of achieving stable clamping and preventing scratches on the surface of the ceramic blank by flexibly conforming to the outer wall of the ceramic blank.
[0017] Preferably, the limiting block is provided with a sliding groove, and the clamping block can move horizontally along the sliding groove to adapt to blanks of different sizes.
[0018] Furthermore, the horizontal movement of the clamping block is guided by the sliding groove structure, which enables flexible adjustment of the clamping range, thereby adapting to the fixing requirements of ceramic blanks of different sizes.
[0019] Preferably, the surface of the water inlet plate is covered with a hydrophobic coating to accelerate the flow of mud to the water storage tank.
[0020] Furthermore, the hydrophobic coating accelerates the flow efficiency of waste liquid into the storage tank by reducing the adhesion of mud to the surface of the water inlet plate.
[0021] Preferably, the working surface of the clamping plate is provided with anti-slip texture or silicone pad layer to increase the friction with the ceramic blank.
[0022] Furthermore, by setting anti-slip textures or silicone pads on the working surface of the clamping plate, the friction between the clamping structure and the ceramic blank is significantly increased, ensuring the stable fixation of the blank during the grouting process and preventing deformation or cracking caused by displacement.
[0023] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0024] By integrating an adjustable clamping structure and a dynamic water collection system, the stability and environmental friendliness of grouting operations are significantly improved. The clamping mechanism uses gear transmission to achieve self-adaptive fixing of the billet, effectively preventing deformation and cracking caused by displacement. The wastewater collection system achieves efficient recycling and centralized treatment of overflow slurry through a drainage tray and spiral drainage design, reducing environmental pollution and cleaning costs. At the same time, the compact structural design improves the ease of operation and the level of production standardization. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation
[0031] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings:
[0032] As shown in the figure, this embodiment provides a grouting frame for processing ceramic handicrafts. The main body 1 is provided with a clamping structure 3 below it, and a water collection structure 2 is provided below the clamping structure 3.
[0033] The water collection structure 2 includes a water inlet plate 201, a transmission rod 203 is fixedly installed below the water inlet plate 201, a water-proof pipe 202 is movably sleeved on the outside of the transmission rod 203, a water storage tank 206 is fixedly installed below the water-proof pipe 202, a drain pipe 204 is provided on one side of the water storage tank 206, and a water block 205 is movably sleeved inside the drain pipe 204.
[0034] The clamping structure 3 includes a clamping plate 301. A limiting block 302 is movably sleeved on the outer side of one end of the clamping plate 301. A small gear 303 is movably sleeved below the limiting block 302. The small gear 303 meshes with a large gear 304. A clamping block 305 is movably sleeved inside the large gear 304.
[0035] It should be noted that the grout overflow wastewater is collected by the water inlet plate 201, and highly adaptable flow guidance is achieved by the movable water-proof pipe 202 and the transmission rod 203. The wastewater flows into the water storage tank 206 for temporary storage through the water-proof pipe 202. The drain pipe 204 on the side of the water storage tank 206 is equipped with a detachable water plug 205, which facilitates centralized discharge or cleaning of waste liquid, thereby solving the waste liquid pollution problem and realizing resource recycling. It consists of a clamping plate 301, a limiting block 302, and a gear transmission mechanism with a small gear 303 and a large gear 304. The gear meshing drives the clamping block 305 to move along the slide groove of the limiting block 302, so that the arc-shaped clamping block 305 adapts to ceramic blanks of different sizes, realizes stable positioning during the grouting process, and prevents blank displacement and defects. Through the integrated design of upper and lower layers, the two major technical problems of waste liquid collection and billet clamping are solved simultaneously. The water collection structure 2 realizes dynamic flow guidance and centralized treatment, while the clamping structure 3 provides precise and adjustable fixing function. The two work together to improve grouting efficiency, finished product qualification rate and cleanliness of the working environment.
[0036] As shown in the figure, this embodiment provides a grouting frame for processing ceramic handicrafts. The end of the clamping block 305 is fixed to the end of the clamping plate 301, and the working surface of the clamping block 305 is provided with anti-slip texture.
[0037] It should be noted that the end of the clamping block 305 is fixed to the end of the clamping plate 301, and its working surface is provided with anti-slip texture. Its main function is to ensure that the clamping block 305 and the clamping plate 301 move synchronously through rigid connection. At the same time, the anti-slip texture increases the friction with the surface of the ceramic blank, thereby achieving stable clamping of the blank during the grouting process and preventing uneven slurry distribution or blank damage caused by slippage or displacement.
[0038] As shown in the figure, this embodiment provides a grouting frame for ceramic craft processing. The drain pipe 204 has a spiral flow guiding structure inside, and the water plug 205 is a threaded conical rubber plug. The two are sealed and opened / closed by screwing together.
[0039] It should be noted that the internal spiral design slows down the wastewater flow rate and guides its direction, preventing splashing or disorderly flow during mud wastewater discharge and ensuring the waste liquid smoothly flows into the storage tank 206. The threaded conical rubber plug and the threaded drain pipe 204 form a reliable seal, preventing waste liquid leakage into the storage tank 206 and allowing for quick opening or closing of the drain channel by twisting, facilitating centralized storage and cleaning of waste liquid. The rubber material is elastic and corrosion-resistant, adapting to mud environments; the conical design enhances the seal fit, reduces the risk of blockage caused by mud solidification, and improves long-term reliability.
[0040] As shown in the figure, this embodiment provides a grouting frame for processing ceramic handicrafts. The surface of the water inlet plate 201 has an annular groove structure and is provided with four water inlets.
[0041] It should be noted that the surface of the water inlet plate 201 adopts an annular groove structure and is provided with four water inlets, which efficiently collects the mud wastewater overflowing from the ceramic blank during the grouting process, and guides the waste liquid to the water storage tank 206 through the groove structure and multiple water inlets, so as to realize the centralized collection and directional discharge of wastewater.
[0042] As shown in the figure, this embodiment provides a grouting frame for processing ceramic handicrafts. The clamping block 305 is an arc-shaped rubber pad, which is fixed to the end of the clamping plate 301 and is used to fit the outer wall of the ceramic blank.
[0043] It should be noted that the design of the arc-shaped rubber material closely fits the outer curved surface of the ceramic blank, providing flexible buffer protection during the clamping process to avoid damage to the blank caused by hard contact. At the same time, the frictional properties of the rubber enhance the clamping stability, prevent the blank from shifting or slipping during grouting, and ensure the safe fixation of blanks of different sizes during the processing.
[0044] As shown in the figure, this embodiment provides a grouting frame for processing ceramic handicrafts. The limiting block 302 is provided with a sliding groove, and the clamping block 305 can move horizontally along the sliding groove to adapt to blanks of different sizes.
[0045] It should be noted that the sliding groove provided in the limiting block 302 allows the clamping block 305 to move horizontally along it. Its core function is to adjust the horizontal position of the clamping block 305 by sliding, so as to achieve adaptive clamping and stable fixation for ceramic blanks of different sizes. This design, combined with the meshing of the pinion 303 and the gear 304 in the gear transmission mechanism, allows the operator to easily adjust the clamping distance, ensuring that the blank is firmly positioned during the grouting process and avoiding displacement or tilting problems caused by size differences.
[0046] As shown in the figure, this embodiment provides a grouting frame for ceramic craft processing. The surface of the water inlet 201 is covered with a hydrophobic coating to accelerate the flow of slurry to the water storage tank 206.
[0047] It should be noted that the function of this hydrophobic coating is to reduce the liquid adhesion on the surface of the water inlet plate 201, thereby reducing mud retention and accelerating the flow efficiency of wastewater to the water storage tank 206, ensuring rapid collection of waste liquid and reducing residue.
[0048] As shown in the figure, this embodiment provides a grouting frame for processing ceramic handicrafts. The working surface of the clamping plate 301 is provided with anti-slip texture or silicone pad layer to increase the friction with the ceramic blank.
[0049] It should be noted that the anti-slip texture or silicone pad design on the working surface of clamping plate 301 is mainly used to enhance the friction between the contact surface and the ceramic blank, thereby ensuring that the blank is stably clamped during the grouting process and preventing it from sliding or displacing. This design directly improves the reliability of clamping structure 3, avoids uneven grouting, deformation or cracking caused by blank shaking, and at the same time reduces the frequency of manual intervention, ensuring production efficiency and finished product qualification rate.
[0050] The implementation principle of a grouting frame for ceramic crafts processing according to an embodiment of this application is as follows: The ceramic blank is placed on the clamping plate 301 of the clamping structure 3. The rotating pinion 303 drives the large gear 304 to rotate, causing the clamping block 305 to move horizontally along the sliding groove of the limiting block 302. The clamping block 305 is an arc-shaped rubber pad with anti-slip texture on its working surface, which can adapt to the outer wall curvature of blanks of different sizes. It achieves stable clamping through flexible contact, preventing blank displacement or surface damage during grouting. The anti-slip texture or silicone pad layer on the working surface of the clamping plate 301 further increases the friction, ensuring that the blank is firmly positioned. When grout is poured into the blank, the overflowing wastewater falls into the water inlet 201 of the water collection structure 2. The surface of the water inlet 201 is designed with an annular groove structure, covered with a hydrophobic coating and provided with four water inlets, which can quickly guide the grout wastewater and reduce residue. Wastewater flows into the baffle pipe 202 through the inlet, and is adjusted to different heights via the movable transmission rod 203, eventually converging into the storage tank 206 for temporary storage. The sleeved design of the baffle pipe 202 and the transmission rod 203 achieves a high degree of dynamic adaptation, ensuring that wastewater collection is not affected by changes in the position of the clamping structure.
[0051] The drain pipe 204 on the side of the water storage tank 206 has a built-in spiral guide structure, which can smoothly guide the discharge of waste liquid and prevent splashing. The plug 205 uses a threaded conical rubber plug, which screws into the drain pipe 204 to achieve a seal. When cleaning is required, the plug 205 is unscrewed. The spiral structure can prevent mud from solidifying and clogging. The rubber material is corrosion-resistant and has strong sealing performance, which facilitates the centralized discharge or recycling of waste liquid. The clamping structure 3 and the water collection structure 2 are designed in layers. While the gear transmission accurately fixes the billet, the water inlet plate 201 receives the overflow wastewater in real time, which solves the problems of deformation and cracking caused by billet shaking and waste liquid pollution in traditional grouting. The hydrophobic coating and spiral drainage design significantly improve the waste liquid recycling efficiency and reduce cleaning costs. The water storage tank 206 centrally treats wastewater and reduces the pollution of the working environment. The chute and gear transmission realize stepless adjustment of the clamping range. The arc-shaped rubber clamping block 305 combines protection and stability and is suitable for standardized mass production.

Those skilled in the art should understand that this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. The embodiments and descriptions in the specification are merely illustrative of the principles of this utility model. Various changes and modifications may be made to this utility model without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention. All such changes and modifications fall within the scope of the invention as claimed, which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
