Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of quartz crucible production technology, and specifically to a clamping device for melting and molding quartz crucibles. Background Technology
[0002] In the quartz crucible forming process, the forming rod is a key tool for controlling the shape and wall thickness of the crucible, and its design directly affects the raw material utilization rate and product quality. After high-purity quartz sand is loaded into a graphite mold with an adjustable angle, centrifugal force is used to make the sand particles evenly adhere to the inner wall; combined with manual scraping, the forming steps of the quartz crucible are completed.
[0003] When manually scraping material, the forming rod is held in hand and its shape and wall thickness are controlled inside the quartz crucible. This operation method is highly repeatable and relies on the operator's experience, resulting in poor consistency of crucible quality. In addition, the working environment is harsh and requires long-term exposure to high temperatures. Utility Model Content
[0004] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this invention provides a clamping device for melting and forming quartz crucibles. This device is integrated with the gripper of an industrial robot, allowing the robot to transfer the crucible while simultaneously performing the crucible forming process. This replaces manual labor, improves efficiency, and ensures consistent crucible quality.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: A gripping device for melting and forming quartz crucibles includes a frame, grippers, a servo motor, a servo driver, a scraper, and a support frame. The end of the frame is fixedly connected to the flange of an industrial robot via a flange. A gripper is fixedly mounted on the top of the frame. A servo motor is located inside the frame, driving the gripper. A servo driver is fixedly installed inside the frame, and the servo motor is connected to the servo driver. A support frame is fixedly mounted on one side of the frame. A scraper is fixedly mounted on the support frame, and the scraper is perpendicular to the frame.
[0006] Preferably, the scraper rod is an L-shaped bent rod; the scraper rod is fixed along one straight side of the support frame.
[0007] Preferably, a support frame is fixed to one side of the industrial robot; the support frame is a stepped frame structure; feeders are arranged on the support frame; the feeders contain quartz sand; the top of the feeders has a discharge port; and the side of the feeders has a clamping rod that cooperates with the grippers.
[0008] Preferably, a melting furnace is installed on the other side of the industrial robot, and the melting furnace is equipped with a mold; the feeder feeds quartz sand into the mold through the industrial robot.
[0009] The beneficial effects of this utility model are: 1. After the feeding device completes the feeding, the scraper bar on one side can be extended into the mold. During the automatic rotation of the mold, the scraper bar completes the scraping operation, replacing manual scraping and avoiding the problems associated with manual scraping.

Detailed Implementation
[0014] As shown in the figure, to achieve the above objectives, this utility model is implemented through the following technical solution: A gripping device for melting and forming quartz crucibles is disclosed. This device needs to be connected to an industrial robot 7 for use. The industrial robot 7 is a six-axis robot, and its operation will not be described in detail. Specifically, the end of the frame 1 is fixedly connected to the flange of the industrial robot 7 via a flange; a gripper 2 is fixedly fixed to the top of the frame 1; a servo motor 3 is provided inside the frame 1, and the gripper 2 is driven by the servo motor 3; a servo driver 4 is fixedly installed inside the frame 1, and the servo motor 3 is connected to the servo driver 4; a support frame 6 is fixedly installed on one side of the frame 1; a scraper rod 5 is fixedly installed on the support frame 6; the scraper rod 5 is perpendicular to the frame 1. The scraper rod 5 is an L-shaped bent rod; the scraper rod 5 is fixed along one straight edge of the support frame 6.
[0015] As shown in the figure, further, to complete the collaborative operation, a support frame 9 is fixed on one side of the industrial robot 7; the support frame 9 has a stepped frame structure; feeders 10 are arranged on the support frame 9; the feeders 10 contain quartz sand; the top of the feeders 10 has a discharge port; the side of the feeders 10 has a clamping rod 10.1 that cooperates with the gripper 2. A melting furnace 8 is installed on the other side of the industrial robot 7, and the melting furnace 8 has a mold 8.1; the feeders 10 feed quartz sand into the mold 8.1 through the industrial robot 7, and the length of the scraper rod 5 is greater than the depth of the mold 8.1.
[0016] Workflow: The industrial robot 7 drives the device to the designated position of the support frame 9 through its own operation. The servo driver 4 controls the servo motor 3, and the servo motor 3 drives the gripper 2 to grab the clamping rod 10.1 of the feeder 10, transfer it to the mold 8.1 of the melting furnace 8, and pour the quartz sand into the mold 8.1. The device changes position through the industrial robot 7, so that the scraper rod 5 extends into the mold 8.1 and is close to the inner wall of the mold 8.1. During the rotation of the mold 8.1, the scraper rod 5 scrapes the quartz sand inside, completing the melting and forming of the quartz crucible.
[0017] The above are merely preferred embodiments of this utility model, but the scope of protection of this utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or modifications made by those skilled in the art within the scope of the technology disclosed in this utility model, based on the technical solution and inventive concept of this utility model, should be included within the scope of protection of this utility model.
