[the 1st embodiment]
The 1st embodiment is meant the microwave heating supply channel, on the supply channel of transferring glass metal microwave generating apparatus is set, and high frequency electric source input high frequency is sent out the generation microwave that shakes by syntonizer, utilizes this microwave that glass metal is heated.
1, supply channel
Style
There is no particular restriction for the style of supply channel, shown in Fig. 1 (A), (B), is a passage of transferring glass metal for example, and an end communicates with clarifying chamber 24, and the other end is equipped with feed basin 14, and the centre is a temperature regulated zone 18,20,22.
Consider the position of glass shaper, between the temperature regulated zone 20 and 22 of supply channel, can be designed to the arrangement of certain sinuousness, but sinuousness is the reason that produces temperature of glass liquid inequality in the supply channel, so sinuousness can not be an acute angle, be arranged in a linear as far as possible.
Also there is no particular restriction for the quantity of supply channel and length, and in general, 2 ~ 6 supply channels are arranged in a calciner design, and a supply channel length is advisable between 5 ~ 10m.
Whipping appts
As shown in Figure 2, on the length direction of supply channel 10, it is comparatively ideal that more than one whipping appts 25 is set.

Top refractory brick center protrusion style
Fig. 3 is the sectional area of supply channel 10, as shown in Figure 3, above glass metal, i.e. the top refractory brick of supply channel 10, there is jut 42 its centre.
Shape for lugs 42 can be leg-of-mutton, also can be rectangular.Jut 42 can improve the exothermal effect on glass metal upper strata, reduces the temperature head between glass metal upper strata and the bottom, makes the temperature distribution of glass metal integral body more become even.
The quantity of jut 42 can be provided with more than two preferable according to exothermal effect.
The insertion mouth of window and wave guide
Penetrate glass metal expeditiously for the ease of microwave, should reach the side above supply channel, offer the insertion mouth of window and wave guide, window and insertion mouth should be made of non-dielectric.
These windows have been arranged and inserted mouth, microwave generating apparatus just can be installed in the outside of supply channel, avoid supply channel high temperature on every side, the environment for use temperature of microwave generating apparatus is controlled just very convenient, can improve the service efficiency and the work-ing life of microwave generating apparatus, and the maintenance of magnetron or prionotron, the maintenance also be easy to.
Reflective construct
On supply channel, the microwave reflection device should be arranged.
Below supply channel, the side, above installation microwave reflection device, can be in the supply channel on each face with microwave reflection, microwave heating is just more even, more effective like this.
2, microwave generating apparatus
Structure
As shown in Figure 4, microwave generating apparatus is made up of the magnetron 12 of band refrigerating unit 69.
Magnetron 12 is made up of discharge coil 53, open tube 52, pole piece 62, and refrigerating unit 69 is to be used for cooling off magnetron 12, assurance magnetron 12 works better.
Magnetron 12 is under hot environment, and microwave sends ability and can descend.But by above structure, can cool off magnetron 12, the temperature of magnetron 12 is remained in the proper range, keep normal operating conditions.
In order to protect microwave generating apparatus, around the magnetron 12 protecting sheathing should be installed.
Install
Be that microwave generating apparatus is installed in the supply channel outside better from improving the cooling performance of magnetron self, but from result of use and convenient management, microwave generating apparatus is installed in the top of supply channel and side, and then effect is even more ideal.For example, as shown in Figure 1, at the bend of supply channel and the joining place of feed basin and supply channel microwave generating apparatus is installed, magnetron does not directly contact with glass metal, and the penetrable glass metal of microwave fully heats the glass metal bottom.
The quantity of magnetron and length should decide according to the length and the shape of supply channel.For example the combination about 3/10m is an ideal comparatively.
In addition, when magnetron is installed, between magnetron and glass metal wave guide can also be set, wave guide can import microwave in the glass metal, can prevent that like this magnetron is because of the deterioration of being heated.

Will be on microwave generating apparatus mounting center treatment unit (CPU), be used for the fast processing mass data.
3, glass metal
Dielectric loss (tan δ)
There is no particular restriction for the kind of glass metal, as long as can carry out the medium heating.Be 1200 ℃ measuring temperature for example, measuring cycle is under the condition determination of 2.45GMHZ, and the dielectric loss of glass metal (tan δ) will be more than 0.1.
During so general room temperature, dielectric loss is the glass of zero non-dielectric, also can effectively heat with microwave when high temperature.Yet the value of the dielectric loss of glass metal can not be too big, and is too big, and the Heating temperature of glass metal and heat-up time are regulated and have any problem.
So the dielectric loss of glass metal should be controlled in 0.5 ~ 10 scope, be controlled in 1 ~ 5 scope just even more ideal.
The dielectric loss of glass metal can be regulated, and control method has the alkali content that increases in the glass metal, uses boron-containing glass, perhaps improves temperature of glass liquid etc., all can more easily improve the dielectric loss value of glass metal.
As shown in Figure 5, Fig. 5 is three kinds of dissimilar glass, the dielectric loss logarithm numerical tabular under differing temps.The A line is alkaliferous lead glass, and the B line is a boron-containing glass, and the C line is an alkali-free glass.As can be seen, the temperature of glass metal is high more from the variation of curve, and the dielectric loss logarithm numerical value of glass is just high more.For example, alkaliferous lead glass needs only temperature of glass liquid more than 600 ℃, and the logarithm numerical value of its dielectric loss is just more than 0.1.
In addition, if contain a certain amount of alkali in the glass, the logarithm numerical value of the dielectric loss of this kind glass is just bigger so.Alkali-free in the glass conversely speaking,, the logarithm numerical value of the dielectric loss of this kind glass is just less so.C line for example, temperature of glass liquid will be more than 1200, and the logarithm numerical value of its dielectric loss just can reach 0.1.
This shows that by adjusting temperature of glass liquid, the alkalinity of glass can be with the logarithm Numerical Control of the dielectric loss of glass metal in specialized range.
Medial temperature and temperature head
The temperature of glass metal is according to the difference of glass types and different, soda-lime glass for example relatively more commonly used, the medial temperature of feed basin mouth can be controlled in 1000 ~ 1600 ℃ of scopes, after temperature was set in a certain temperature value, top temperature and the temperature head between the minimum temperature in the glass metal will be controlled in 15 ℃.
Its reason is 1000 ℃ of medial temperature less thaies, and temperature head is again greater than 15 ℃, and the flowability of glass metal is just very poor, is detained easily, and glass metal is easy to generate the crystallization phenomenon, and crystallization glass is piled up easily.And when the glass metal medial temperature surpassed 1600 ℃, each locational temperature distribution control of glass metal just became very difficult, and it is big that the temperature head between top temperature and the minimum temperature becomes, and caused the gob weight after the shearing to differ, and influence is produced.
So the glass metal medial temperature of feed basin mouth is controlled in 1100 ~ 1500 ℃ of scopes, temperature head be controlled at 10 ℃ with interior be ideal comparatively, medial temperature is controlled in 1200 ~ 1400 ℃ of scopes, temperature head is controlled at 5 ℃ with interior then even more ideal.
Differences in viscosity
Each locational glass viscosity difference of glass liquid in charging bin will be dwindled as far as possible, soda-lime glass for example relatively more commonly used, and the differences in viscosity between peak viscosity and the minimal viscosity will be controlled in the 10pa.s.
Its reason be differences in viscosity more than 10pa.s, the mobile extreme difference of glass metal is detained easily, glass is easy to generate crystallization, crystallization glass is piled up easily.
So it is comparatively ideal that the differences in viscosity (maximum value) of the glass metal in the feed basin is controlled in 0.01 ~ 5pa.s scope, is controlled in 0.1 ~ 3pa.s scope then even more ideal.
Fig. 6 is the temperature of glass metal and the graph of a relation between the viscosity.What the glass metal sample adopted is the soda-lime glass of using always, and transverse axis is represented temperature of glass liquid, and d-axis is represented the logarithmic value (pa.s) of glass metal viscosity.
From the feature of figure medium viscosity curve as can be seen, in 1000 ~ 1600 ℃ of scopes, temperature and viscosity are inversely proportional to, and temperature is high more, and viscosity is low more, otherwise temperature is low more, and viscosity is high more.Dwindle the differences in viscosity of point to point, the most effective way is the temperature head of dwindling point to point.
So the temperature of glass liquid in charging bin is controlled in 1000 ~ 1600 ℃ of scopes, again by suitably heating, can be in same scope with the viscosity controller of glass metal.
Alkali content
, alkali content in the glass should be controlled in 1 ~ 20 weight % scope the glass metal heating for effectively.
Its reason is that alkali content is lower than 1 weight % in the glass, and the dielectric loss of glass metal is too little, the heating difficulty.And when alkali content in the glass was higher than 20 weight %, the intensity difference of glasswork, and the glass easy over-heating that becomes caused temperature distributing disproportionation on the contrary.
So alkalinity is controlled in 1 ~ 18 weight % scope to be comparatively ideal, to be controlled in 5 ~ 15 weight % scopes then even more ideal in the glass metal.
Alkali content in the glass can be by regulating Li in the glass ingredient 2O, Na 2O, K 2The content of compositions such as O, CaO, MgO, BaO, SrO achieves the goal.
The velocity of flow of glass metal
In order effectively glass metal to be heated, the velocity of flow of glass metal should be controlled in 3 ~ 300mm/ branch scope.
Its reason be the velocity of flow of glass metal as being lower than the 3mm/ branch, the dielectric loss of glass metal is too little, the heating difficulty.And the velocity of flow of working as glass metal is higher than the 300mm/ timesharing, and the temperature distribution scope of glass metal is big, the control difficulty.
So it is comparatively ideal that the velocity of flow of glass metal is controlled in 5 ~ 200mm/ branch scope, be controlled in 7 ~ 150mm/ branch scope then even more ideal.
4, other
Shown in Fig. 3 (A), also should several flame injection devices 40 be installed in supply channel 10 both sides, Combustion Source can be used Sweet natural gas, coal gas etc., by burner noz(zle), presses direction of arrow burning among the figure.
Flame combustion apparatus can heat large-area glass metal surface, and microwave heating cooperates flame heating, can make the temperature of glass liquid in the supply channel distribute more even.
[the 2nd embodiment]
The 2nd embodiment is meant and utilizes the microwave heating supply channel to carry out the method that glasswork is produced.It comprises fusion operation, heating process, these three operations of molding procedure.
1, fusion operation
The fusion operation is meant in calciner, with the temperature of regulation, with the process of frit fusion.Generally with 1400 ~ 1600 ℃ high temperature frit is heated, make it fuse into glass metal, the viscosity of glass metal is 100 ~ 50, in the 000pa.s scope.
Glass types can be soda-lime glass, borosilicate glass, lead glass, also can be lead-silica glass, phosphate glass or the like.Glass ingredient can comprise: SiO 2, Al 2O 3, B 2O 3, Na 2O, K 2O, CaO, PbO or the like.
Glass colour can be water white, painted transparent, painted translucent or the like.
In addition, in order to increase the effect of microwave heating, also can in frit, add the nickelalloy of 0.01 ~ 10 weight %.
2, heating process
Heating process is meant that on supply channel the process of glass metal limit to the glass metal heating transferred on the limit.Should use the microwave generating apparatus that illustrates among the 1st embodiment about heating process, defer to following heating condition, heat.
Microwave
The cycle of microwave should decide according to the factors such as scale of heating efficiency and microwave generating apparatus, generally is controlled in 300MHZ ~ 50GHZ scope preferable.
Its reason is the not enough 300MHZ of the cycle of microwave, the certain temperature that equally glass metal raise, and required time is oversize.And when the cycle of microwave surpassed 50GHZ, the scale of magnetron was too big, and quantity is too many, and it is very huge that whole microwave generating apparatus just becomes.
So take all factors into consideration, the cycle of microwave is controlled in 300MHZ ~ 20GHZ scope more satisfactory, is controlled in 500MHZ ~ 5GHZ scope then even more ideal.
According to the kind of microwave generating apparatus, the cycle of microwave has in most cases been decided in advance.The microwave generating apparatus of magnetron for example, the cycle of microwave generally is decided to be 0.915GHZ and 2.45GHZ, the microwave generating apparatus of prionotron, the cycle of microwave generally is decided to be 6GHZ.
The microwave generating apparatus of gyrotron, the cycle of microwave generally is decided to be 28GHZ.
Microwave irradiating time
Microwave irradiating time should be taken all factors into consideration heating efficiency, and the microwave generating apparatus scale determines behind the various factorss such as the flow velocity of glass metal.In general, it is interior for good that the irradiation time of glass metal unit volume should be controlled at 10 ~ 1000 seconds scopes.
Its reason is microwave irradiating time less than 10 seconds, glass metal underheating, and temperature rises insufficient.And when microwave irradiating time surpasses 1000 seconds, the expense height, uneconomical.
Take all factors into consideration various factors, it is preferable that microwave irradiating time is controlled in 20 ~ 500 seconds scopes, is controlled in 60 ~ 300 seconds scopes then even more ideal.
Electricity consumption
Electricity consumption in the heating process should be according to heating efficiency, and factors such as glass metal flow decide.Generally be controlled in 2 ~ 100KW/ton scope better.
Its reason is the not enough 2KW/ton of electricity consumption, and the heating required time is oversize.And when electricity consumption surpassed 100KW/ton, the microwave generating apparatus scale was too big, the glass metal local superheating.
So it is comparatively ideal that the electricity consumption in the heating process is controlled in 3 ~ 80KW/ton scope, be controlled in 5 ~ 60KW/ton scope then even more ideal.
3, molding procedure
Molding procedure is meant that effusive glass metal cuts into gob in the feed basin, and gob weight uniformity imports gob in the mould on the bottle-making machine again, is blow molded into various glassy products, as bottle for cosmetics, drug bottle etc.
