Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of glass fiber production technology, and in particular to a rapid cooling device for glass fiber testing. Background Technology
[0002] When testing the physical properties of glass fiber, such as combustible content and water content, after high-temperature burning (650℃), it needs to be cooled to room temperature before weighing. Traditional cooling methods have low cooling efficiency, consume a lot of time, affect the testing progress, and cannot provide effective basis for subsequent process optimization and quality control.
[0003] Specifically, in the quality inspection of glass fiber production, samples need to be heated to 650℃ and then cooled to room temperature before being weighed. Traditional cooling methods, such as natural cooling or single-fan blowing, have significant drawbacks:
[0004] Inefficient: Cooling high-temperature samples (650℃) to room temperature takes about 90 minutes, which severely restricts the detection progress;
[0005] Data distortion risk: During open cooling, ambient moisture can easily penetrate the sample, interfering with the accuracy of moisture content and combustible content detection;
[0006] Lack of automation: The cooling process relies on manual monitoring and cannot achieve coordinated temperature and humidity control. Utility Model Content
[0007] The purpose of this invention is to solve the problems of excessively long cooling cycles, interference from environmental humidity in detection accuracy, and low efficiency of manual monitoring in the existing technology. This invention provides a rapid cooling device for glass fiber testing that features temperature-controlled trigger sealing and multi-directional synergistic cooling.
[0008] This utility model is achieved using the following technical solution: a rapid cooling device for glass fiber testing, comprising a housing, a tray, a cover, a lifting mechanism, an upper cooling fan, and a lower cooling fan; the tray is disposed inside the housing, and the cover is located above the tray and connected to the housing via the lifting mechanism, which controls the lifting and lowering of the cover to cover the tray when it is lowered to its lowest position; the housing is provided with a platform for placing the tray, and the platform has a through hole in the middle to facilitate airflow; the upper cooling fan is disposed above the cover, and the lower cooling fan is disposed at the bottom of the housing, both used to generate a high-speed cooling airflow to rapidly cool the product when it is placed on the tray. Through the coordinated action of the upper and lower cooling fans, the product is rapidly cooled in a short time, shortening the testing preparation cycle and avoiding quality deviations caused by uneven temperature during natural cooling.
[0009] Furthermore, a desiccant is provided on the platform and placed in a desiccant storage box. The desiccant storage box opens in conjunction with the cover plate when it descends to its lowest position to prevent moisture from entering the glass fiber product. This structure significantly reduces the adverse effects of moisture on the hygroscopicity of the glass fiber material during cooling, thereby improving the consistency and stability of the finished product.
[0010] Furthermore, a top cover is provided above the desiccant placement box. The middle of the top cover is hinged to one side of the desiccant placement box via a hinge structure, forming a lever structure. When the cover is lowered, its bottom pushes one end of the top cover to rotate and open the desiccant placement box. The automatic opening of the desiccant box is achieved through a mechanical linkage structure, avoiding human intervention or complex control logic, and improving the overall automation level and reliability of the device.
[0011] Furthermore, the housing is equipped with a temperature sensor to monitor the temperature around the tray. When the detected temperature is lower than a preset value, the lifting mechanism is triggered to lower the cover and open the desiccant box. This design achieves temperature-triggered automatic control, enabling the device to automatically enter the next processing stage based on actual operating conditions, effectively improving its intelligence and ease of use.
[0012] Furthermore, when the temperature sensor detects that the temperature has reached room temperature, the upper and lower cooling fans automatically shut down.
[0013] Furthermore, the lifting mechanism includes at least two symmetrically arranged cylinders and a pair of guide rails. One end of each cylinder is connected to the cover plate, and the other end is connected to the housing. The guide rails are positioned between the cover plate and the housing to restrict the cover plate from sliding along the guide rail path. This cylinder + guide rail combination structure ensures the smoothness and accuracy of the cover plate's lifting process, prevents deviation and jamming, and improves the structure's repeatable service life.
[0014] Furthermore, the extension and retraction direction of the cylinder is parallel to the sliding path defined by the guide rail.
[0015] The rapid cooling device for glass fiber testing described in this utility model has the following beneficial effects:
[0016] By installing upper and lower cooling fans on the cover plate and the bottom of the chamber respectively, a high-speed airflow channel is formed above and below the tray, which can quickly cool the glass fiber test sample, greatly shorten the cooling time and improve the test efficiency.
[0017] During the tray cooling process, the desiccant box, which opens in conjunction with the tray, releases desiccant to effectively absorb moisture from the air, preventing the fiberglass products from absorbing moisture during cooling and improving product quality stability.
[0018] Temperature sensors monitor the cooling environment in real time. When the temperature is lower than the preset value, the cover plate will automatically fall and the drying function will be activated. After the temperature drops to room temperature, the cooling fan will automatically turn off, realizing full automation, reducing manual intervention and improving the intelligence level of the device.
[0019] The desiccant box features a cleverly designed lever linkage mechanism that directly drives the top cover to open via the movement of the cover plate. This eliminates the need for complex transmission or electronic control, resulting in a simple and reliable structure that reduces maintenance costs. Attached Figure Description

Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, and not all embodiments. The components of the embodiments of this utility model described and shown in the accompanying drawings can generally be arranged and designed in various different configurations.
[0028] Therefore, the following detailed description of the embodiments of the present invention provided in the accompanying drawings is not intended to limit the scope of the claimed invention, but merely to illustrate selected embodiments of the invention. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without inventive effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention. Example 1
[0029] like Figure 1-5 As shown, this embodiment provides a rapid cooling device for glass fiber testing, including...
[0030] The container consists of a box 1, a tray 2, and a cover 3. The tray 2 is placed inside the box 1, and the cover 3 is located above the tray 2 and connected to the box 1 via a lifting mechanism 4. The lifting mechanism 4 controls the raising and lowering of the cover 3. When the cover 3 is lowered to its lowest position, it covers the tray 2.
[0031] The housing 1 is provided with a platform for placing the tray 2. The platform for placing the tray 2 has a through hole in the middle to facilitate airflow. An upper cooling fan 5 is provided above the cover plate 3, and a lower cooling fan 6 is provided at the bottom of the housing 1. The high-speed airflow generated by the upper cooling fan 5 and the lower cooling fan 6 quickly cools the products placed on the tray 2.
[0032] A desiccant 7 is also provided on the platform of the placement tray 2. The desiccant is placed in a desiccant placement box 8. When the cover plate 3 is closed, the desiccant placement box 8 opens in conjunction with the desiccant 7 to prevent moisture in the air from mixing into the fiberglass product.
[0033] The housing 1 is also equipped with a temperature sensor. When the temperature sensor detects that the temperature is below 100°C, the lifting mechanism 4 controls the cover to close, and simultaneously opens the desiccant placement box 8. When the temperature sensor detects that the temperature has reached room temperature, the cooling fan automatically shuts off. Example 2
[0034] This embodiment is a further optimization based on Embodiment 1, specifically:
[0035] A top cover 9 is provided above the desiccant placement box 8. The middle part of the top cover 9 is hinged to one side of the desiccant placement box 8 to form a lever structure. Normally, the top cover 9 is horizontal with the top of the desiccant placement box 8. The desiccant placement box 8 can be closed by the top cover 9. When the cover plate 3 is closed, the bottom of the cover plate 3 pushes one side of the top cover 9, causing the top cover 9 to rotate around the hinge point with the desiccant placement box 8, thereby opening the desiccant placement box 8.
[0036] Specifically, the desiccant placement box 8 is set on both sides or one side of the tray 2. The inner side of the cover plate 3 is provided with a pressure block 12. The pressure block 12 moves up and down with the cover plate 3, and the edge of the top cover 9 is located on the movement path of the pressure block 12. When the pressure block 12 passes the top cover 9, it presses down one side of the top cover 9 and raises the other side to open the desiccant placement box 8.
[0037] The two sides of the hinge of the top cover 9 are the working section 13 and the trigger section 14, respectively. The working section 13 is located above the opening of the desiccant box 8 and its width is greater than the width of the opening of the desiccant box 8, so that the working section 13 can completely close the opening of the desiccant box 8 in a horizontal state. The trigger section 14 is located outside the desiccant box 8 and is located on the movement path of the pressure block 12.
[0038] In order for the top cover 9 to automatically return to its original position after the cover plate 3 is raised, the overall weight of the trigger section 14 is less than the overall weight of the working section 13. When the pressure block 12 rises, since the working section 13 is heavier than the trigger section 14, the top cover 9 will automatically rotate around the hinge point under the action of gravity and eventually restore the top cover 9 to a horizontal state. Example 3
[0039] This embodiment is a further optimization based on Embodiment 1, specifically:
[0040] The lifting mechanism 4 includes a cylinder 10 and a guide rail 11. One end of the cylinder 10 is connected to the cover plate 3 and the other end is connected to the housing 1. At least two cylinders 10 are provided and are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the housing 1 and the cover plate 3.
[0041] The guide rail 11 is disposed between the cover plate 3 and the box body 1, and the sliding connection between the cover plate 3 and the box body 1 is realized through the guide rail 11. The extension and retraction direction of the cylinder 10 is parallel to the sliding path defined by the guide rail 11.
[0042] The above embodiments describe the basic principles, main features, and advantages of this utility model. 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. Modifications and variations made by those skilled in the art without departing from the spirit and scope of this utility model should be protected within the scope of the appended claims.
