Description

WIND OUTLET S IRUCTURE AND COOLING DEVICE
BACKGROUND
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present disclosure relates to a glass cooling processing technology and, in particular, to a wind outlet structure and cooling device that can control an appropriate number of wind outlet holes for wind supply operation according to the size of the glass.
RELATED ART
[0002] Glass has excellent transmittance and scratch resistance, so it is widely used in daily life. At present, related glass products can be seen not only in buildings and general daily necessities, but also in electronic appliances and vehicles. Peripheral products have flooded people's lives.
[0003] Most of the glass is made by batching, melting, forming, annealing and other processes. After the glass is made, further processing operations can be performed to improve the functionality of the glass. For example, the annealed glass can be cut to the required size, then the glass is heated by a glass heating furnace to soften the glass, and then thc glass is rapidly cooled through a cooling device to cool the glass surface below the annealing temperature for rapid hardening and shrinking. When the interior of the glass shrinks, it will cause a compressive stress on the surface, and the interior of the glass will produce a tensile stress, which can increase the strength of the glass to form a so-called strengthened glass.
f0004] In the above descriptions, the cooling device at least comprises wind outlet structures laterally arranged above and below. There are several rollers disposed between the above and below wind outlet structures. The rollers can carry glass, and then use the wind outlet structure to output wind and blow it toward the glass, so as to achieve the purpose of rapid cooling of the glass.
[0008] It is preferred that the number of perforations is Tess than the number of wind outlet holes.
[0009] The windshield preferdbly occupies less than half the length of the wind outlet channel.
[0010] The wind outlet holes and the perforations are preferably arranged in a plurality of Tows [0011] The number of the rows in which the perforations are arranged is preferably equal to the number of the rows in which the wind outlet holes are arranged.
[0012] A displacement of the windshield may be 10 mm.
[0013] The other surface of the wind outlet part opposite to the surface of wind outlet part which is connected to the case may be a curved surface or an irregular surface, and the wind outlet holes may be set on different angled surfaces.
[0014] The wind outlet part may be a metal extrusion molding.
[0015] The wind outlet structure may further comprise a connecting pipe connected to the case, wherein one end of the connecting pipe is a wind inlet hole, and the wind inlet hole is connected to the wind inlet channel.
[0016] According to another aspect of the present invention a cooling device is provided, and the cooling device comprises: a motor: a wind blower connected to the motor; a first wind supply pipe having one end connected to the wind blower; a wind box connected to another end of the first wind supply pipe opposite to the end of the first wind supply pipe which is connected to the wind blower; a plurality of second wind supply pipes, wherein one end of each second wind supply pipe is connected to the wind box; and the wind outlet structures as mentioned above, the connecting pipe of each wind outlet structure is connected to another one end of the second wind supply pipe opposite to the end of the second wind supply pipe which is connected to the wind box.
wind outlet structures. The rollers can carry glass, and then use the wind outlet structure to output wind and blow it toward the glass, so as to achieve the purpose of rapid cooling of the glass.
[0005] However, because the size of the glass to be cooled each time is different, when the cooling device of the prior art is activated, all the wind outlet holes of the wind outlet structure can only output wind power at the same time, and cannot control the appropriate number of wind outlet holes for wind supply operation according to the size of the glass, which consumes energy and generates unnecessary costs.
SUMMARY
