[0002] Currently, in the production of float glass ranging from 3 mm to 19 mm, the thickness difference of the glass sheet (the difference between the thickest and thinnest point) is quite large. Float glass forming mainly relies on the torque coordination between the edge-drawing machine and the main drive device, and is completed under suitable temperature conditions; therefore, temperature control during forming is particularly crucial.

[0003] The conventional method is to raise the temperature of the low-temperature zone or the forming zone in the tin bath by turning on the electric heating. However, this method has limited effectiveness, and the glass thickness difference remains between 0.25 mm and 0.28 mm, resulting in insufficient quality of the finished glass product.

[0031] Currently, in the production of float glass ranging from 3 mm to 19 mm, the thickness difference of the glass sheet (the difference between the thickest and thinnest point) is quite large. Float glass forming mainly relies on the torque coordination between the edge-drawing machine and the main drive device, and is completed under suitable temperature conditions; therefore, temperature control during forming is particularly crucial.

[0032] The conventional method involves using electric heating to raise the temperature of the low-temperature zone within the tin bath and the temperature of the forming zone. However, this method has limited effectiveness, and the glass thickness variation remains between 0.25 and 0.28 millimeters, resulting in insufficient quality of the finished glass product.

[0033] This utility model proposes a temperature regulating device 30 for a float glass tin bath. Please refer to [link / reference needed]. Figure 1 and Figure 2 In one embodiment of this utility model, the temperature regulating device 30 for float glass tin bath is inserted into the tin bath 10 and located between the tin bath inlet 12 and the edge pulling machine 20, the edge pulling machine 20 being located outside the tin bath 10; the temperature regulating device 30 includes at least two water-cooled coolers 40, the at least two water-cooled coolers 40 being movably inserted into both sides of the tin bath 10, and the at least two water-cooled coolers 40 being staggered, the at least two water-cooled coolers 40 being located between the tin bath inlet 12 and the edge pulling machine 20.

[0034] The temperature regulating device 30 includes at least two water-cooled coolers 40, which are movably inserted on both sides of the tin bath 10, and are staggered. The at least two water-cooled coolers 40 are located between the tin bath inlet 12 and the edge-pulling machine 20.

[0035] The technical solution of this utility model employs at least two water-cooled coolers 40 located between the edge-pulling machine 20 and the tin bath inlet 12. The at least two water-cooled coolers 40 are movably inserted on both sides of the tin bath 10, and the at least two water-cooled coolers 40 are staggered. By adjusting the insertion length of the water-cooled coolers 40 into the tin bath 10 and the length of partial overlap of the at least two water-cooled coolers 40 inside the tin bath 10, the temperature of the forming area at the tin bath inlet 12 is adjusted to achieve a more suitable forming temperature. This reduces the thickness difference of the glass formed in the tin bath 10 and improves the quality of the finished glass product.

[0036] At least two of the water-cooled coolers 40 are movably inserted into both sides of the solder bath 10, allowing for manual adjustment of the length of the water-cooled cooler 40 extending into the solder bath 10. In one embodiment, the length of the water-cooled cooler 40 extending into the solder bath 10 is between 500 mm and 4800 mm.

[0037] In one embodiment, water flows inside the water-cooled cooler 40, and a water tank for storing water can be connected to the end of the water-cooled cooler 40 away from the solder bath 10. The temperature of the water flowing inside the water-cooled cooler 40 can be adjusted by adjusting the temperature of the water in the tank. The water-cooled cooler 40 is inserted into the solder bath 10, so that the temperature of the liquid inside the solder bath 10 is adjusted by the water-cooled cooler 40.

[0038] The water-cooled cooler 40 includes multiple first coolers 41 and multiple second coolers 42. The multiple first coolers 41 are spaced apart and inserted on one side of the solder bath 10, and the multiple second coolers 42 are spaced apart and inserted on the other side of the solder bath 10. The second coolers 42 inserted in the solder bath 10 are located between two adjacent first coolers 41. This arrangement makes the temperature rise or fall of the forming area of ​​the solder bath 10 more uniform and the temperature rise and fall rate faster.

[0039] In one embodiment, four first coolers 41 can be inserted into one side of the solder bath 10, and two second coolers 42 can be inserted into the other side of the solder bath 10. See also... Figure 2 The first water-cooled cooler 40 and the second cooler 42 have an overlapping area inside the tin bath 10 to enhance the heating or cooling of the molding area of ​​the tin bath 10.

[0040] Multiple water-cooled coolers 40 can be installed 5 meters from the inlet of the tin bath 10.

[0041] Please see Figure 4 If a heating rod is inserted into the solder bath 10 to raise the temperature of the low-temperature region within the solder bath 10, the thickness variation of the glass is 0.268 mm. For a comparison, please refer to [link to relevant documentation]. Figure 5 Currently, when electric heating is used to raise the temperature of the forming area within the tin bath 10, the thickness variation of the glass is 0.154 mm. Therefore, the thickness variation of the glass has been reduced by 0.1144 mm.

[0042] In one embodiment, the solder bath 10 has insertion holes 11 on both sides for the water-cooled cooler 40 to be inserted. The number of insertion holes 11 corresponds one-to-one with the number of water-cooled coolers 40, so that the water-cooled cooler 40 passes through the insertion holes 11 and is inserted into the interior of the solder bath 10. A sealing plug can be provided between the insertion hole 11 and the water-cooled cooler 40 to prevent liquid from flowing out of the solder bath 10.

[0043] Because the water-cooled cooler 40 is quite long, in order to insert the water-cooled cooler 40 into the solder bath 10, please refer to [the following text is missing]. Figure 1 and Figure 3 The temperature regulating device 30 also includes a hanging assembly 50, which is arranged in a one-to-one correspondence with the water-cooled cooler 40. The hanging assembly 50 is installed on the side of the solder bath 10, and the water-cooled cooler 40 is installed on the hanging assembly 50 and can be inserted into the interior of the solder bath 10 through the insertion hole 11.

[0044] The number of hanging assemblies 50 on both sides of the tin bath 10 corresponds to the number of water-cooled coolers 40.

[0045] Specifically, to movably insert the water-cooled cooler 40 into the solder bath 10, the hanging assembly 50 includes a bracket 51 and a movable frame 52. The bracket 51 is installed on the side of the solder bath 10, and one end of the movable frame 52 is movably installed on the bracket 51, while the other end is connected to the water-cooled cooler 40. The movable frame 52 can move relative to the bracket 51, thereby allowing manual adjustment of the length of the water-cooled cooler 40 extending into the solder bath 10. The movable frame 52 can also be slidably connected to the bracket 51.

[0046] In one embodiment, the bracket 51 is provided with a sliding groove 510; one end of the movable frame 52 is equipped with a roller 53, which is slidably mounted in the sliding groove 510, and the other end of the movable frame 52 is connected to the water-cooled cooler 40.

[0047] When the movable frame 52 is pushed manually, the roller 53 slides in the groove 510 of the bracket 51, thereby adjusting the position of the water-cooled cooler 40.

[0048] To prevent the rollers 53 from slipping out during sliding within the groove 510, the movable frame 52 includes a limiting part 54 and an extension part 55. The limiting part 54 includes a clamping part 541 with two clamping rods 542 and a connecting rod 543. The connecting rod 543 connects the two clamping rods 542. The two rollers 53 are installed one-to-one on opposite sides of the two clamping rods 542, and the two rollers 53 are movably installed in the groove 510. One end of the extension part 55 is connected to the connecting rod 543, and the other end extends toward the water-cooled cooler 40 to connect with the water-cooled cooler 40.

[0049] The bracket 51 has sliding grooves 510 on both sides, and the limiting part 54 has a concave structure. The two rollers 53 are slidably installed in the sliding grooves 510 on both sides of the bracket 51 by two clamping rods 542, one on the left and one on the right. The two rollers 53 are subjected to the clamping force of the two clamping rods 542, making it difficult for the two rollers 53 to fall out of the sliding grooves 510.

[0050] To further enhance the movement stability of the movable frame 52, at least two clamping parts 541 are provided, with the two clamping parts 541 spaced apart from the connecting rod 543. Each clamping part 541 is provided with two rollers 53, and the limiting part 54 is provided with a total of four rollers 53. The movable frame 52 moves steadily on the support 51 by means of the four rollers 53, thereby ensuring that the water-cooled cooler 40 is not prone to tilting when the position of the water-cooled cooler 40 is manually adjusted.

[0051] The bottom of the extension 55 is provided with a fixing clamp 550, and the outside of the water-cooled cooler 40 is provided with a mounting plate 43, which is connected to the fixing clamp 550 by bolts.

[0052] Since the water-cooled cooler 40 is relatively long, in order to install the water-cooled cooler 40 to the side of the tin bath 10 more securely, the bottom of the extension 55 is provided with at least two fixing clips 550 at intervals. The water-cooled cooler 40 is provided with at least two mounting plates 43 corresponding to the number of fixing clips 550. The water-cooled cooler 40 is installed on the hanging assembly 50 through at least two mounting plates 43.

[0053] In one embodiment, the length of the water-cooled cooler 40 extending into the solder bath 10 is between 500 mm and 4800 mm. Specifically, the length of the water-cooled cooler 40 extending into the solder bath 10 from one side can be 500 mm, and the length of the water-cooled cooler 40 extending into the solder bath 10 from the other side can be 4800 mm.

[0054] The water-cooled cooler 40 includes a plurality of first coolers 41 and a plurality of second coolers 42. The plurality of first coolers 41 are spaced apart and inserted on one side of the tin bath 10, and the plurality of second coolers 42 are spaced apart and inserted on the other side of the tin bath 10. The second coolers 42 inserted in the tin bath 10 are located between two adjacent first coolers 41.

[0055] In one embodiment, four first coolers 41 are inserted into one side of the tin bath 10, and the four first coolers 41 are spaced apart from each other. Two second coolers 42 are inserted into the other side of the tin bath 10, and the two second coolers 42 are staggered and interspersed among the four first coolers 41.

[0056] The above description is merely an exemplary embodiment of the present utility model and does not limit the scope of protection of the present utility model. Any equivalent structural transformations made based on the technical concept of the present utility model and the contents of the present utility model specification and drawings, or direct / indirect applications in other related technical fields, are included within the scope of protection of the present utility model.
