Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of ceramic tile processing equipment, and specifically relates to a device for waxing and polishing ceramic tiles. Background Technology

[0002] In the production and processing of ceramic tiles, polished tiles have micron-sized pores (typically 2-10 μm in diameter) on their surface after polishing. Without sealing treatment, stains and moisture can easily penetrate these pores, making them difficult to clean. Therefore, a waxing process is necessary to fill these pores and form a protective film. This process directly affects the surface performance and lifespan of the polished tiles. Currently, the mainstream ceramic tile waxing and polishing equipment in the industry generally adopts a segmented layout of "wax dripping device - conveyor belt - polishing device," meaning the wax dripping device and the polishing device are spaced apart at different stations along the conveyor belt's transport direction. This structure has revealed several technical defects in actual production applications, as follows: First, the delayed control of wax under abnormal operating conditions leads to resource waste and product defects. During polishing operations, factors such as deviations in the flatness of the tile surface, uneven wear of the polishing wheel, and fluctuations in conveyor speed often cause polishing abnormalities (such as polishing scratches, local over- / under-polishing). In such cases, it is necessary to urgently stop the conveyor belt to troubleshoot and resolve the fault. However, since the wax dripping device and the polishing device are located in different positions and lack a linkage control mechanism, the wax dripping device cannot respond and shut down synchronously when the conveyor belt stops, resulting in wax continuously dripping onto the stationary tile surface or the conveyor belt. This causes ineffective consumption of wax, increasing production costs. Furthermore, excessive wax accumulation can easily lead to excessively thick wax layers in some areas when production resumes, resulting in uneven surface gloss and wax layer peeling after polishing, among other product quality problems.

[0003] Secondly, the excessively long interval between the wax dripping and polishing stations causes the wax to solidify prematurely, affecting the polishing quality. To adapt to the continuous conveying rhythm of traditional conveyor belts, the interval between the wax dripping device and the polishing device in existing equipment is usually designed to be 1-3 meters (corresponding to a tile conveying time of approximately 5-15 seconds). However, after the wax drips from the wax dripping device onto the tile surface, it needs to remain liquid at a certain temperature (usually 40-60℃) to fully penetrate the pores. The ambient temperature of the workshop (20-25℃) and the surface temperature of the tile (approximately 25-30℃ after the previous process) are both lower than the solidification point of the wax (the solidification point of most tile-specific waxes is 32-38℃). As the tiles are transported from the wax dripping station to the polishing station, the wax oil gradually cools and solidifies prematurely in the low-temperature environment. This not only fails to effectively fill the pores on the tile surface, but also forms "wax residue" or "local scratches" under the action of the polishing wheel. As a result, the gloss of the tile surface decreases after polishing (from above 85° to below 70°), and the pore sealing rate is less than 50%, which seriously affects the product's performance and market competitiveness.

[0004] Third, the dispersed layout of equipment occupies space, increasing workshop costs and energy consumption. The separate arrangement of the wax dripping device and the polishing device requires reserving independent installation and operation and maintenance space above the conveyor belt, which makes it impossible to integrate other auxiliary process equipment (such as surface dust removal device, defect detection device, preheating device, etc.) in the area above the conveyor belt. To meet the process requirements of the entire tile production process, companies have had to adopt longer conveyor belts (30%-50% longer than a compact layout, often exceeding 10 meters in length) to connect various dispersed workstations. This not only significantly increases the floor space of the production workshop (each production line requires an additional 15-30 square meters of space) but also leads to a significant increase in the energy consumption of the conveyor belts. On the one hand, longer conveyor belts require more powerful drive motors (power increases from 5.5kW to 7.5-11kW), increasing power consumption per unit time by 40%-100%. On the other hand, the increased length of the conveyor belt leads to increased transmission resistance and decreased conveying speed stability, further exacerbating energy loss. It also increases the maintenance frequency and replacement cost of the conveyor belt (annual maintenance costs increase by 20%-30%), which is not conducive to the compact and energy-saving development of equipment and contradicts the current development trend of "cost reduction and efficiency improvement, green production" in the manufacturing industry.

[0005] Therefore, given the aforementioned shortcomings of such equipment, the applicant believes that in order to enhance the company's market competitiveness, it is necessary to optimize the existing equipment to better meet the development requirements of "cost reduction and efficiency improvement, and green production". Utility Model Content

[0006] The purpose of this invention is to solve the above problems and provide a ceramic tile wax-spraying polishing device that is compact in structure, easy for workers to control and operate nearby, reduces the conveying distance, saves workshop space, and reduces energy consumption.

[0007] The technical solution of this utility model is implemented as follows: a ceramic tile wax-dripping polishing device, characterized in that it includes a frame in which a conveyor belt for conveying ceramic tiles is wound; an electric polishing mechanism mounted in the forward direction of the conveyor belt, the electric polishing mechanism including a support body spanning above the conveyor belt, a suspension bracket disposed in the support body, a polishing motor vertically mounted on the suspension bracket, a polishing head mounted on the rotating shaft of the polishing motor, and a lifting cylinder vertically disposed on the top surface of the support body, the telescopic rod of the lifting cylinder passing through the support body and... Connected to the suspension bracket, guide rod assemblies connected to the suspension bracket and the support body are respectively provided on both sides of the lifting cylinder; a wax dripping mechanism mounted on the frame, the wax dripping mechanism includes a wax oil storage tank set on the top surface of the support body, an electric pump set on the top surface of the wax oil storage tank, a spray height adjustment assembly spanning across the conveyor belt, and a spray head installed in the middle of the spray height adjustment assembly. The spray head is connected to the output end of the electric pump through a delivery pipe, and the input end of the electric pump is connected to a liquid extraction pipe extending into the wax oil storage tank.

[0008] Furthermore, the support body is composed of two vertical plates and a top plate that spans between the top ends of the two vertical plates. The bottom ends of the two vertical plates are respectively fixed on the longitudinal beams located on both sides of the conveyor belt on the frame. A working cavity is also formed between the two vertical plates, the top plate and the conveyor belt.

[0009] Furthermore, the lifting cylinder is mounted on the top plate, and the telescopic cylinder rod of the lifting cylinder passes through the top plate and is placed in the working cavity; the guide rod assembly is distributed on both sides of the lifting cylinder and is vertically installed on the top plate, and the lower end of the guide rod assembly passes through the top plate and is placed in the working cavity.

[0010] Furthermore, the center of the top surface of the suspension bracket is connected to the telescopic cylinder rod and guide rod assembly of the lifting cylinder, respectively, so as to realize the suspension bracket being suspended and installed in the working cavity.

[0011] Furthermore, the suspension bracket is provided with a central cavity, in which the polishing motor is vertically installed. The rotating shaft of the polishing motor passes through the bottom of the central cavity and extends out of the bottom surface of the suspension bracket. The polishing head is mounted on the rotating shaft of the polishing motor located on the bottom surface of the suspension bracket.

[0012] This utility model, through the development and design of the aforementioned technical solution, achieves the following expected beneficial effects: First, it solves the problem of coordinated control between wax dripping and polishing under abnormal working conditions: It breaks away from the existing independent operation mode of the wax dripping device and the polishing device, ensuring that if an abnormality occurs in the polishing process or the conveyor belt stops, the worker can immediately shut off the wax discharge nearby, avoiding ineffective consumption of wax and product quality defects caused by excessive accumulation, thus achieving precise coordination between wax supply and polishing operations. Second, it solves the problem of premature solidification of wax oil during the wax dripping to polishing process: It optimizes the integrated layout of the wax dripping and polishing stations, shortening the interval between them to reduce the cooling time of the wax oil, ensuring that the wax oil fully penetrates the pores of the tile, avoiding polishing defects caused by wax oil solidification, and improving the surface gloss and pore sealing rate of the tile. Thirdly, it addresses the space and energy consumption issues caused by the dispersed layout of equipment: It requires breaking through the limitations of traditional segmented layouts and achieving an integrated design of the wax dripping device and polishing device. This reduces the space occupied by both while reserving space for integrating other auxiliary process equipment above the conveyor belt, thereby shortening the overall length of the conveyor belt, reducing the workshop floor space, lowering the power of the drive motor and the energy consumption of the conveyor belt, and meeting the needs of compact, energy-saving, and green production. Overall, this utility model has advantages such as compact structure, convenient worker control and operation, reduced conveying distance, space saving in the workshop, and reduced energy consumption.

[0017] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the ceramic tile wax-dripping polishing device of this utility model includes... A frame 1 is provided, in which a conveyor belt 2 for conveying ceramic tiles is wound. The conveyor belt 2 is driven by a motor and rollers laid in the frame 1. This is the same as a general conveyor belt mechanism and will not be described in detail here.

[0018] An electric polishing mechanism 4 is mounted on the forward direction of the conveyor belt 2. The electric polishing mechanism 4 can be arranged individually or in pairs side by side. Figure 3The diagram shows an example of a double-row arrangement, or multiple parallel arrangements. The electric polishing mechanism 4 includes a support body 41 spanning above the conveyor belt 2, a suspension bracket 42 disposed in the support body 41, a polishing motor 43 vertically mounted on the suspension bracket 42, and a polishing head 44 mounted on the shaft of the polishing motor 43. A lifting cylinder 45 is also vertically disposed on the top surface of the support body 41. The telescopic cylinder rod of the lifting cylinder 45 passes through the support body 41 and is connected to the suspension bracket 42. Guide rod assemblies 46 are respectively provided on both sides of the lifting cylinder 45 and connected to the suspension bracket 42 and the support body 41 to cooperate with the lifting cylinder 45 in working together, assisting in improving the load-bearing capacity and rigidity of the lifting cylinder 45, so as to extend the service life of the lifting cylinder 45.

[0019] A wax-drip mechanism 3 is mounted on a frame 1. The wax-drip mechanism 3 includes a wax oil storage tank 31 mounted on the top surface of a support body 41, an electric pump 32 mounted on the top surface of the wax oil storage tank 31, a spray height adjustment assembly 35 spanning above a conveyor belt 2, and a spray head 34 installed in the middle of the spray height adjustment assembly 35. The spray head 34 is connected to the output end of the electric pump 32 via a delivery pipe 33. The input end of the electric pump 32 is connected to a suction pipe 40 extending into the wax oil storage tank 31. The wax oil storage tank 31 is also equipped with an electric heating device to heat the wax oil stored in the tank. During operation, the electric pump 32 provides the extraction power, and the wax is dripped from the spray head 34 onto the ceramic tiles transported by the conveyor belt 2 via the delivery pipe 33.

[0020] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the support body 41 consists of two vertical plates 411 and a top plate 412 spanning between the top ends of the two vertical plates 411. The bottom ends of the two vertical plates 411 are respectively fixed to the longitudinal beams 11 located on both sides of the conveyor belt 2 on the frame 1. A working cavity 413 is also formed between the two vertical plates 411, the top plate 412 and the conveyor belt 2. This design not only makes the support body 41 simple in construction and easy to process, and the frame structure enhances rigidity, but also provides stable support and facilitates the arrangement of the polishing motor 43 and the suspension bracket 42 in the working cavity 413. At the same time, it also creates a working cavity suitable for tile conveying.

[0021] For example Figures 1 to 3As shown, the lifting cylinder 45 is vertically mounted on the top plate 412, and the telescopic rod of the lifting cylinder 45 passes through the top plate 412 and is placed in the working cavity 413. The guide rod assembly 46 is distributed on both sides of the lifting cylinder 45 and vertically mounted on the top plate 412, and the lower end of the guide rod assembly 46 passes through the top plate 412 and is placed in the working cavity 413. This design ensures the accuracy and stability of the lifting drive, improves the precision during polishing rotation, and avoids uneven polishing force. Furthermore, it enhances the overall structural rigidity and adapts to the high-frequency operation requirements of the equipment.

[0022] For example Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the center of the top surface of the suspension bracket 42 is connected to the telescopic cylinder rod of the lifting cylinder 45 and the guide rod assembly 46, respectively, so as to realize the suspension bracket 42 being suspended and installed in the working cavity 413. In this way, the installation structure of the suspension bracket 42 is stable, the load-bearing capacity is reliable, the vibration transmission of the structure is reduced, and the modular assembly and maintenance of components are convenient.

[0023] To reduce the space occupied by the suspension bracket 42, polishing motor 43, etc. in the working cavity 413, and to make the whole structure more compact, such as Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the suspension bracket 42 also has a central cavity 421. The polishing motor 43 is vertically installed in the central cavity 421, and the shaft of the polishing motor 43 passes through the bottom of the central cavity 421 and extends out of the bottom surface of the suspension bracket 42. The polishing head 44 is mounted on the shaft of the polishing motor 43 located on the bottom surface of the suspension bracket 42. The central cavity 421 provides installation space for the polishing motor 43, achieving compact integration and saving space in the working cavity 413. The motor shaft extends through the bottom of the cavity to the bottom surface of the bracket, which can directly drive the polishing head 44, ensuring efficient power transmission and precise alignment of the polishing head with the tile, thus improving polishing stability.

[0024] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the polishing head 44 consists of a grinding disc body 441 connected to the rotating shaft of the polishing motor 43 and multiple polishing heads 442 evenly spaced on the bottom surface of the grinding disc body 441. The grinding disc body 441 is adapted to the motor shaft, achieving a stable connection and ensuring efficient power transmission; the multiple polishing heads 442, evenly distributed, can uniformly cover the tile surface, avoiding polishing dead corners, while also dispersing polishing pressure, improving polishing uniformity and tile surface gloss.

[0025] like Figure 1 and Figure 3As shown, the top surface of the wax storage tank 31 is also provided with an oil filling port 311 with a cap. The oil filling port 311 provides a convenient channel for replenishing wax oil, and can be filled without disassembling the tank, improving operational efficiency; the cap design can seal the oil filling port to prevent dust and impurities from entering and contaminating the wax oil, while also preventing the wax oil from evaporating or spilling, ensuring the purity of the wax oil and a clean working environment.

[0026] like Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, the spraying height adjustment assembly 35 consists of a horizontal plate 351 spanning above the conveyor belt 2 and two spiral adjusting feet 352 respectively disposed at both ends of the horizontal plate 351. The spiral adjusting feet 352 are threaded together with the ends of the horizontal plate 351. The lower ends of the spiral adjusting feet 352 pass through the horizontal plate 351 and are supported on the longitudinal beams 11 located on both sides of the conveyor belt 2 on the frame 1. The horizontal plate 351 spans above the conveyor belt, providing a stable installation base for the spraying components; the threaded spiral adjusting feet 352 can precisely adjust the height of the horizontal plate by rotation to adapt to the spraying needs of tiles of different thicknesses, and the two ends are supported by the longitudinal beams 11 to ensure structural stability.

[0027] The delivery pipe 33 is a flexible hose. The flexible hose can flexibly adapt to the relative position of the wax oil storage tank 31 and the spraying component, without being restricted by a fixed layout, which facilitates the compact assembly of the equipment; the flexible hose has a certain deformation capacity, which can buffer the impact of equipment operation vibration on the pipeline, avoid the problem of easy breakage of rigid pipes, and facilitate subsequent maintenance and adjustment.

[0028] like Figure 4 and Figure 3 As shown, a switch valve 331 is also provided on the delivery pipe 33 next to the spray head 34. It can precisely control the supply of wax oil to the side of the spray head 34, and can quickly shut off when polishing is abnormal to avoid wax oil waste and accumulation; it is flexible in operation and can also adjust the flow rate according to the spraying needs to ensure the accuracy of waxing.
