Detailed Description

The present invention is further illustrated by the following examples, which are intended to be purely exemplary of the invention and are not intended to be limiting.

Unless defined otherwise, technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art. Although methods and materials similar or equivalent to those described herein can be used in experimental or practical applications, the materials and methods are described below. In case of conflict, the present specification, including definitions, will control, and the materials, methods, and examples are illustrative only and not intended to be limiting. The present invention is further illustrated by the following examples, which are not intended to limit the scope of the invention.

The invention provides an annealing furnace with controllable opening degree, which comprises a furnace body 1, a plurality of partition plates and a driving part 2, wherein the partition plates are arranged inside the furnace body, and the driving part 2 is arranged outside the furnace body 1, is connected with the partition plates and drives the partition plates to change positions.

In the prior art, the glass substrate 5 overflows from the overflow device 4, is clamped by the first traction roller 6 or the second traction roller 7 and is pulled down into a plate, and is cooled and annealed in the annealing furnace body 1 to form a qualified glass substrate. When the second drawing roller 7 needs to be replaced, the first drawing roller 6 can clamp the glass substrate 5 to perform furnace body regular maintenance by moving from the second drawing roller 7 to the position 71. During maintenance operation, the glass substrate 5 is broken sometimes and jammed between the partition plates, which increases the furnace maintenance time.

As shown in fig. 1 and 2, the plurality of partition plates of the annealing furnace provided by the present invention includes two first partition plates 12, two second partition plates 13 and two third partition plates 14 which are symmetrical along the central axis of the furnace body 1, wherein the first partition plates 12, the second partition plates 13 and the third partition plates 14 are sequentially arranged along the central axis direction of the furnace body 1, and the central axis of the furnace body 1 coincides with the direction in which the glass substrate 4 is pulled down in the furnace body, that is, the direction of the arrow in fig. 1.

Further, the first partition plate 12 includes a first movable portion 121 and a first fixed portion 122, the second partition plate 13 includes a second movable portion 131 and a second fixed portion 132, the third partition plate 14 includes a third movable portion, and the driving portion 2 drives the first movable portion 121, the second movable portion 131, and the third movable portion to change positions.

The widths of the first movable portion 121, the second movable portion 131 and the third movable portion may be set according to actual needs, but are limited by the first drawing roll 6 and the second drawing roll 7. Alternatively, the width of the first movable portion 121 is 1/2-1/3 of the width of the first partition plate 12, and the width of the second movable portion 131 is 1/2-1/3 of the width of the second partition plate 13, so that the gap between the two first partition plates 12 and the two second partition plates 13 is increased without the falling movable portions 121 and 131 touching the first drawing roll 6 and the second drawing roll 7.

Alternatively, the third dividing plate 14 is entirely a third movable portion, that is, the entire plate of the third dividing plate 14 is a movable portion, as shown in fig. 2. Since there is no pulling roll under the third partition 14, the third partition 14 can rotate over a larger area, which increases the gap between the two third partitions 14 to the maximum.

Among them, the first partition plate 12, the second partition plate 13 and the third partition plate 14 are formed of a heat-resistant material, which may be any material that has been used in the prior art, preferably a heat-resistant stainless steel material.

As shown in fig. 2, the plate shafts 15 penetrate through the furnace body 1 to connect the plurality of partition plates and the driving portion 2, that is, the three plate shafts 15 are respectively connected to the first partition plate 12, the second partition plate 13, the third partition plate 14 and the driving portion 2.

In a preferred embodiment, as shown in fig. 2 and 3, the driving part 2 includes a connecting rod 22, a bracket 23, a first driving rod 214, a second driving rod 215, a first driven rod 211, a second driven rod 212, a third driven rod 213, a first gear 241, a second gear 242, and a third gear 243, wherein the first driven rod 211, the second driven rod 212, and the third driven rod 213 are connected to the connecting rod 22 and are respectively connected to the first movable part 121, the second movable part 131, and the third movable part through the plate shaft 15, the first driving rod 214 is connected to the connecting rod 22 and is connected to the first gear 241, the second driving rod 215 is connected to the connecting rod 22 and is connected to the third gear 243, and the first gear 241, the second gear 242, and the third gear 243 are sequentially disposed on the bracket 2 and are engaged with each other.

The driving part 2 can realize simultaneous control of a plurality of partition plates. The first passive rod 211 is connected to one end (an end indicated by an arrow in the figure) of the first movable portion 121 through the plate shaft 15, and a flat key can be added to the plate shaft 15 to fix the first passive rod 211 and the plate shaft 15 into a whole, so that the first passive rod 211 can drive the first movable portion 121 to rotate. Similarly, the second passive rod 212 can drive the second movable portion 131 to rotate, and the third passive rod 213 can drive the third movable portion to rotate. First active lever 214, second active lever 215, first passive lever 211, second passive lever 212, and third passive lever 213 may be hinged to link 22. The connecting rod 22 is a stainless steel frame, and can conduct mechanical force without deformation. The connecting rod 22 restrains the plurality of rod members at fixed positions, and when two of the rod members, namely the first active rod 214 and the second active rod 215, are displaced by the driving force, the first passive rod 211, the second passive rod 212 and the third passive rod 213 are also displaced in the same manner due to the restraining force, and are operated in a synchronous rotation manner. For example, the motion locus of the hinge point between the first driving rod 214 and the connecting rod 22 is circular, and the hinge point only needs to reciprocate within an angle range of 90 degrees according to the requirement of the opening degree of the partition plate.

The first gear 241, the second gear 242, and the third gear 243 are mounted on the vertical section of the bracket 23, are engaged with each other, and are rotatable. The second gear 242 is a direction-changing gear, and when the third gear 243 rotates clockwise, the second gear 242 engaged with the third gear rotates counterclockwise, and the first gear 241 engaged with the second gear 242 moves clockwise. Thus, the first gear 241 and the third gear 243 rotate in the same direction. The first gear 241 and the third gear 243 may drive the first driving lever 214 and the second driving lever 215 connected thereto, thereby driving the first movable portion 121, the second movable portion 131, and the third movable portion to rotate. Wherein the first driving lever 214 is keyed on the protruding shaft of the first gear 241, and likewise, the second driving lever 215 is keyed on the third gear 243.

The bracket 23 can support the weight of the driving part 2, and the bracket 23 extends out of the fixing part 231 and is attached to the outer wall 11 of the annealing furnace by bolts or the like. The bracket 23 extends out of the vertical section for mounting a gear.

The annealing furnace of the present invention may further comprise an operating section 3, and the operating section 3 is connected to the driving section 2 for operating the driving section 2. The arrangement of the operation part can reduce the force required by an operator to drive the plurality of partition plates, so that the operator can efficiently and quickly complete the rotation operation of the partition plates.

Specifically, the bracket 23 is provided with a worm 24, one end of the worm 24 is connected to the operation portion 3, and the other end and the third gear 243 constitute a worm moving member.

Specifically, as shown in fig. 2-4, the bracket 23 further extends out of a horizontal section, the horizontal section is provided with a worm bracket 232 for mounting the worm 24, and the worm 24 extends out of a section of the bracket 232 for mounting the operating part 3. The worm 24 and the third gear 243 constitute a worm moving member, and the worm 24 makes the third gear 243 have a large torque to drive the plurality of partition plates to rotate. Since the first partition plate 12, the second partition plate 13 and the third partition plate 14 are all made of heat-resistant stainless steel plates and have a certain weight, the device can drive the partition plates. The worm 24 and the third gear 243 also have a self-locking function, and after the worm rotates to a certain position, the driving force stops, and the third gear 243 is stationary.

The operating portion 3 is generally rod-shaped, and includes a driving wheel 31, a brake lever 32, and a force receiving lever 33, the force receiving lever 33 holds the driving wheel 31, and the brake lever 32 is hinged to the force receiving lever 33 and has one end engaged with the driving wheel 31. The worm 24 terminates in a protruding hub 35 and the drive wheel 31 is keyed to the hub 35. When the driving wheel 31 is forced to rotate, the driving wheel 31 can be driven. The driving wheel 31 has driving teeth 311 distributed annularly, and the driving teeth 311 have a square shape, i.e. a square block shape as shown in the figure. The brake lever 32 and the force-bearing lever 33 are of X-shape, hinged together by means of a hinge pin 34. The brake lever 32 has two parts, a brake tooth 321 and a first grip 322. The braking tooth 321 is square, that is, the square head shown in the figure, and can be embedded between the two driving teeth 311, and when the braking tooth 321 is engaged with the driving wheel 31, the two teeth are integrated. The force-bearing rod 33 includes two parts, a clamping opening 331 and a second grip 332. The clamping opening 331 has an opening, the driving wheel 31 can be clamped by the wheel shaft 35, and the clamping opening 331 is movably connected with the wheel shaft 35, that is, the clamping opening 331 can rotate around the axis of the wheel shaft 35, but the wheel shaft 35 cannot rotate.

Further, a spring 36 is disposed between the first grip 322 and the second grip 332, and the first grip 322 and the second grip 332 are separated by the spring force when the human hand is not holding the first grip 322 and the second grip 332. When the first grip 322 and the second grip 332 are held by hand, the brake teeth 321 are engaged with the driving teeth 311.

The operation of the operation section 3 is such that when the brake teeth 321 engage with the drive teeth 311, the operation section 3 and the drive wheel 31 are integrated, and the operation section 3 is rotated clockwise by 90 ° to 120 °, and the worm 24 is also rotated clockwise by 90 ° to 120 °. Because of the angle limitation of the force applied by the hand, the operation part 3 needs to return to the initial position, at this time, the hand loosens the first holding rod 322 and the second holding rod 332, the brake tooth 321 is disengaged from between the two teeth 311 under the action of the spring 36, the operation part 3 can rotate counterclockwise by 90-120 degrees along the axis of the wheel shaft 35 to reset, and the driving wheel 31 does not rotate. The operation section 3 reciprocates in such a manner that the worm 24 rotates the gear 243, thereby opening or closing the plurality of partition plates.

The worm structure formed by the worm 24 and the gear 243 reduces the torque force for driving the plurality of spacing plates, the operating part 3 has a longer holding rod and has leverage to further reduce the force for driving the worm 24, thereby reducing the labor force of operators and improving the working efficiency. After the separation plate, the driving part 2 and the operating part 3 are used, one or two operators use the operating part 3 to quickly open the separation plate when the annealing furnace is maintained, so that glass fragments of the annealing furnace are conveniently dredged, the maintenance efficiency is improved, and the productivity is further improved.

The material of all the components of the drive unit 2 and the operation unit 3 may be any material conventionally used in the art, and is preferably stainless steel. When referring to the components located in the furnace body 1, such as the plate shaft 15, it is necessary to be any material that is resistant to high temperature, preferably stainless steel.

Compared to other ways, such as moving the divider plate horizontally to enlarge the gap between the two divider plates. The embodiment is simpler and more efficient, and the structure of the annealing furnace can not be changed too much. The mechanical structure with more belts and small belts can be applied to other fields, for example, the operation part 3 can be applied to bolt assembly of large mechanical parts. In other embodiments, it is within the scope of the present disclosure that the driving wheel 31 may be driven by a motor.
