Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of glass production equipment, specifically to a surface water absorption device for glass after cleaning. Background Technology
[0002] After glass production is completed, the glass surface needs to be cleaned. Cleaning the glass surface has the following advantages:
[0003] Firstly, during the high-temperature melting and forming process, impurities such as metal oxides, dust, or bubbles may remain on the surface of the glass. Cleaning can ensure that the glass surface is clean and avoid affecting subsequent processing or performance.
[0004] Secondly, the glass surface must be thoroughly cleaned before coating; otherwise, impurities will affect the adhesion of the coating, leading to uneven coating or peeling. Professional cleaning techniques (such as ultrasonic or plasma cleaning) can enhance the coating effect.
[0005] Thirdly, stains or residues on the glass surface can scatter light, affecting light transmittance. Cleaning helps maintain the glass's high transparency and smoothness, meeting the high standards required for optical devices or architectural glass.
[0006] Fourthly, uncleaned glass may be scratched or corroded during storage or transportation due to the adsorption of dust or moisture. Cleaning can reduce such risks. After cleaning the glass, it is necessary to remove the water remaining on the glass surface. Existing glass surface water absorption devices can generally only absorb water from flat glass, which has poor adaptability. Therefore, it is necessary to design a surface water absorption device after glass cleaning that can absorb water from both curved and flat glass. Summary of the Invention
[0007] The purpose of this invention is to provide a surface water absorption device for glass after cleaning, which has the advantages of being able to absorb water from both curved and flat glass and having strong adaptability.

Sliding frames are vertically mounted on both sides of the frame, and mounting frames are horizontally mounted on each sliding frame. An air blowing assembly and a water absorption assembly are mounted on the mounting frames from bottom to top. The air blowing assembly includes a horizontally positioned main pipe with multiple universal air pipes at its lower end. The main pipe is connected to a flexible hose, which is connected to an air source. The water absorption assembly includes multiple sub-units, each including a support frame. The support frame is connected to the mounting frame via a universal support rod. The support frame has a support pipe with a mounting ring rotatably mounted in the middle. A sponge tube is mounted on the mounting ring. Long grooves are axially formed on the support pipes on both sides of the mounting ring. A bidirectional telescopic rod is installed inside the support pipe, and connecting beams extending from the long grooves are provided at both ends of the bidirectional telescopic rod. A retaining ring connected to the connecting beam is fitted on the outside of the support pipe.
[0010] Preferably, both the sliding frame and the mounting frame are driven by an electric telescopic rod.
[0011] Preferably, each of the brackets is equipped with a radar rangefinder, and the frame is equipped with a controller connected to each radar rangefinder. The controller is connected to an audible and visual alarm and a display.

[0021] The present invention will be further described below with reference to specific embodiments, such as... Figures 1 to 3 As shown:
[0022] Example 1: A surface water absorption device for glass after cleaning includes a frame 1, with a glass conveying device 2 disposed in the middle of the frame 1. The glass conveying device 2 is prior art and will not be described in detail here. The glass conveying device 2 conveys the cleaned glass in a vertical state. Sliding frames 3 are vertically slidably disposed on both sides of the frame 1 of the glass conveying device 2. Mounting frames 4 are horizontally slidably disposed on the sliding frames 3. Air blowing components and water absorption components are respectively installed on the mounting frames 4 from bottom to top. The sliding frames 3 and the mounting frames 4 control the movement of the air blowing components and water absorption components in three-dimensional space.
[0023] The air blowing assembly includes a horizontally arranged main pipe 6, with multiple universal air pipes 8 at the lower end of the main pipe 6. The main pipe 6 is connected to a hose 7, which is connected to an air source. The air source delivers high-pressure air to the main pipe 6 through the hose 7, and from the main pipe 6, it is delivered to each universal air pipe 8 and sprayed out. The direction of the air jet is adjusted by using the universal air pipes 8 to make the air jet direction adapt to the surface of the glass.
[0024] The water absorption assembly includes multiple sub-units, each including a bracket 9. The bracket 9 is connected to the mounting frame 4 via a universal support rod 10. The bracket 9 is equipped with a support tube 11, and a mounting ring 12 is rotatably mounted in the middle of the support tube 11. A sponge cylinder 13 is mounted on the mounting ring 12. The sponge cylinder 13 and the mounting ring 12 rotate on the support tube 11. Long grooves 14 are axially formed on both sides of the support tube 11. A bidirectional telescopic rod 15 is installed inside the support tube 11. The bidirectional telescopic rod 15 is an electric push rod. Connecting beams 16 extending from the long grooves 14 are provided at both ends of the bidirectional telescopic rod 15. A retaining ring 17 connected to the connecting beam 16 is fitted on the outside of the support tube 11. The bidirectional telescopic rod 15 controls the movement of the connecting beam 16, thereby driving the retaining rings 17 to move closer or further apart. When the two retaining rings 17 move closer together, they squeeze the sponge cylinder 13 to squeeze out the water inside the sponge cylinder 13.
[0025] The sliding frame 3 and the mounting frame 4 control the movement of the air blowing component and the water absorption component closer to the glass surface. The operator uses the universal air pipe 8 to adjust the direction of the air jet in advance to adapt to flat or curved glass. The support rod is used to adjust the tilt angle and height of each bracket 9 so that each sponge cylinder 13 fits the glass surface. This allows for first blowing water onto the glass surface and then absorbing water, thus removing water from the glass surface. This method is suitable for both curved and flat glass. When the glass is fully absorbed and the sliding frame 3 moves to the bottom, the mounting frame 4 is controlled to move outward away from the glass. The bidirectional telescopic rod 15 controls the movement of the connecting beam 16. When the two retaining rings 17 come close to each other, they are used to squeeze the sponge cylinder 13 to squeeze out the water inside the sponge cylinder 13, reducing the water content of the sponge cylinder 13.
[0026] Example 2: A surface water absorption device for glass after cleaning includes a frame 1, with a glass conveying device 2 disposed in the middle of the frame 1. The glass conveying device 2 is prior art and will not be described in detail here. The glass conveying device 2 conveys the cleaned glass vertically. Sliding frames 3 are vertically slidably disposed on both sides of the frame 1 of the glass conveying device 2. Mounting frames 4 are horizontally slidably disposed on the sliding frames 3. Air blowing components and water absorption components are respectively installed on the mounting frames 4 from bottom to top. The sliding frames 3 and the mounting frames 4 are driven by electric telescopic rods 5. The sliding frames 3 and the mounting frames 4 control the movement of the air blowing components and the water absorption components in three-dimensional space.
[0027] The air blowing assembly includes a horizontally arranged main pipe 6, with multiple universal air pipes 8 at the lower end of the main pipe 6. The main pipe 6 is connected to a hose 7, which is connected to an air source. The air source delivers high-pressure air to the main pipe 6 through the hose 7, and from the main pipe 6, it is delivered to each universal air pipe 8 and sprayed out. The direction of the air jet is adjusted by using the universal air pipes 8 to make the air jet direction adapt to the surface of the glass.
[0028] The water absorption assembly includes multiple sub-units, each including a bracket 9. The bracket 9 is connected to the mounting frame 4 via a universal support rod 10. Each bracket 9 is equipped with a radar rangefinder. The frame 1 is equipped with a controller connected to the radar rangefinder. The controller is connected to an audible and visual alarm and a display. The universal support rod 10 is used to adjust the distance between the bracket 9 and the glass surface.
[0029] The bracket 9 is equipped with a support tube 11. A mounting ring 12 is rotatably mounted in the middle of the support tube 11. A sponge cylinder 13 is mounted on the mounting ring 12. The sponge cylinder 13 and the mounting ring 12 rotate on the support tube 11. Long grooves 14 are axially opened on both sides of the support tube 11 of the mounting ring 12. A bidirectional telescopic rod 15 is installed inside the support tube 11. The bidirectional telescopic rod 15 is an electric push rod. Connecting beams 16 extending from the long grooves 14 are provided at both ends of the bidirectional telescopic rod 15. A retaining ring 17 connected to the connecting beam 16 is sleeved on the outside of the support tube 11. The bidirectional telescopic rod 15 controls the movement of the connecting beam 16, thereby driving the retaining rings 17 to move closer or further apart. When the two retaining rings 17 move closer together, they squeeze the sponge cylinder 13 to squeeze out the water inside the sponge cylinder 13. Water collection tanks 18 with upward openings are provided at the lower ends of the frame 1 on both sides of the glass conveying device 2. The water collection tanks 18 are used to collect the water squeezed out from the sponge cylinder 13.
[0030] The side of the sponge sleeve 13 has multiple grooves 19 along the axial direction. Each groove 19 has an elastic element 20 inserted into it. The inner side of the retaining ring 17 is rotatably provided with a rotating ring 21. The two ends of the elastic element 20 are respectively connected to the two rotating rings 21. The elastic element 20 is a rubber band. The elastic element 20 plays the role of restoring the sponge sleeve after compression.
[0031] The working principle is as follows:
[0032] The sliding frame 3 and mounting frame 4 control the movement of the air blowing component and the water absorption component closer to the glass surface. The operator can adjust the direction of the air jet in advance using the universal air pipe 8 to adapt to flat or curved glass. The support rod is used to adjust the tilt angle and height of each bracket 9 so that each sponge cylinder 13 fits the glass surface. This allows for first blowing water onto the glass surface and then absorbing water, thus removing water from the glass surface. This method is suitable for both curved and flat glass. After the glass has absorbed water and the sliding frame 3 has moved to the bottom, the mounting frame 4 is controlled to move outward away from the glass. The bidirectional telescopic rod 15 controls the movement of the connecting beam 16. When the two retaining rings 17 come close to each other, they are used to squeeze the sponge cylinder 13 to squeeze out the water inside the sponge cylinder 13, reducing the water content of the sponge cylinder 13. This method is suitable for both curved and flat glass and has strong adaptability.
