![]() Apparatus for thermal strengthening of sheet glass
专利摘要:
An article, for example a glass sheet, is treated in a gas-fluidized particulate material by advancing the article along a path leading into the gas-fluidized particulate material and extracting gas from a region of the path at a rate sufficient to pack the particulate material in that region and thereby obturate the path. An opening leading into a container for a gas-fluidized bed of particulate material may be obturated in this way. The packed state of the material obturating the opening is such that an article can pass through the opening. 公开号:SU1389675A3 申请号:SU782667699 申请日:1978-09-28 公开日:1988-04-15 发明作者:Куртис Райт Дональд;Марч Брайен;Лео Дависон Янг Родней;Вихерс Виллем 申请人:Пилкингтон Бразерз Лимитед (Фирма); IPC主号:

Container 1 contains a gas-fluidized layer 2 of finely divided material that can be maintained in an unperturbed uniformly distributed state. The finely divided material may, for example, be ng-alumina with an average particle size of 64 µm and a particle density of 2.2 g / cm. The material is fluidized by rising fluidizing gas, usually air, for example, at a flow rate of 0.54 cm. / c evenly along the base of the layer from the upper surface of the porous membrane 3 located above the discharge chamber 4 in the lower part of the container. The container block is located on a lifting table for receiving heated curved sheet glass, which is lowered vertically from a bender (not shown) for thermal hardening by fluid bed quenching. Fluid finely chopped material spreads up the entire depth of container 1. Below the upper edge 5 of the container is the level of the surface 6 of the fluidized bed. During thermal hardening of sheet material from soda-lime glass, sheet glass can have a temperature of 610–680 ° C, the temperature of the fluidized material is usually 30–150 ° C, preferably 60–80 ° C. Nozzles 7 and 8 are located for removal of gas against the other and ha- tsd under the surface level 6 of the fluidized bed. The nozzles 7 and B are removed from each other in order to define a passage 9 for the entry of sheet glass having a width of 125 mm and, thus, are located adjacent to the J region of the layer. Each of the pipes 7 and 8 has a main control part 10 containing L-shaped channel element 11. To each channel element 11 there is attached a grid 12 of microporous fabric woven from metal wire in order to obtain an inward-facing wall 13 and an inclined wall 14 nozzle, 7 or 8. A suitable material for a microporous metal mesh fabric is a material containing a plurality of. A state-of-the-art construction of mesh sheets woven from stainless steel wire, the sheets are sintered together, and having an air permeability of 97.3 l / s / m at a pressure drop of 1 kPa. Each nozzle 7 and 8 has bent parts 15, which are structurally similar to the central part 10 and attached to the ends of the central part 10 by means of hinges 16. By properly setting the angle of the hinge parts 15 relative to the central parts 10 of the nozzles 7 and 8, the latter can be positioned so that they approximately coincided with the curvilinear shape of curved sheet glass, which is to be processed. According to one of the embodiments of the device, the pipes 7 and 8 have a depth of 50 mm, a width of 25 mm and a total length equal to the length of the sheet glass, for example 2 m for an automobile windshield. In this case, the pipes 7 and 8 are placed at a depth of 50 mm below the surface 6 of the fluidized bed. A pipe 17 with branches connects the central part 10 and the two bent parts 15 of each channel with the assembly line 18 leading to the vacuum pump 19. When suction is created on the nozzles 7 and 8 using a vacuum pump 19, the fluidizing gas is removed from the section between the pipes 7 and 8 and above them through the walls of the channels formed by the No. 1 porous and wire mesh 12, and a statistical compacted section of finely divided material is created through which heated glass enters the fluidized layer. The suction is adjusted so that the sheet glass in a heated state can penetrate the static compacted finely divided material without any deformation of this sheet glass. In the described embodiment of the invention, the degree of suction was established, which is formed at a gas extraction rate of 1.25 l / s / m of the length of the nozzles 7 and 8, as a result of which a static compacted layer with a depth of approximately 120 mm is formed, which can easily penetrate . The vacuum pump 19 is connected to the pipes 7 and 8 for the discharge of gas through the assembly line 18, which contains the main solenoid valve 20, check valve controllable 21, the flow meter 22 and filter : device 23. A pneumatic control valve 24 is connected in parallel with the control valve 21 via a bypass 25. A portion of the assembly line 18 between the vacuum pump 19 and the main solenoid valve 20 has an outlet 26 discharging to atmosphere through the second solenoid valve 27. When lowering the sheet glass, the limit switch (not shown) is triggered, which opens the main solenoid valve 20 and closes the second solenoid valve 27. The limit switch activates the timer 28, which regulates the delay of the control valve 24. With the main solenoid valve 20 open and the control valve 24 closed, gas is first taken from the upper portion of the fluidized bed through nozzles 7 and 8 at a constant rate (approximately 1 l / s / m of nozzles 7 and 8), which is established by the degree which check valve 21 from 5 is covered. This state lasts 20 s. (Fig.6) section A-B curve. At the end of this time period, the fine-grained material in the upper part of the fluidized bed reaches a partial seal, after which timer 28 begins to cause the control valve 24 to open gradually. With the control valve 24 opening gradually, a corresponding gradual increase in the rate of fluidizing gas from the upper fluidized section occurs layer that lasts until after 37 s the maximum gas extraction rate is reached (about 1.5 l / s / meter of the length of the pipes 7 and 8). At this time, the actuator to the check valve 24 is reversed to close it, the solenoid valve 20 closes and the solenoid valve 27 opens. The bottom edge of the sheet glass enters the upper part of the fluidized bed at the time indicated by C on the curve l (6), i.e. 7 seconds after the opening of the control valve 24 began. At this time, the upper portion of the fluidized bed becomes more compact, but the degree The 5 ° density is still such that the lower paradise of sheet glass can easily penetrate the upper surface of the layer. Sheet glass runs completely through the top surface. The fluidized bed lasted for 2-4 seconds after the lower edge of the sheet first entered the upper part of the layer, depending on the depth and speed of lowering of the sheet glass. In the period of time between C and D on the curve, the material in the upper portion of the fluidized bed reaches a degree of compaction higher than five five the degree of compaction that allows the bottom edge of the sheet glass to easily penetrate the upper part of the layer, but more favorable for the optical quality of the glass due to minimizing the deformation of the heated surfaces of the sheet glass. The initial predetermined degree of opening of the check valve 21 controls the initial rate of gas withdrawal from the upper portion of the fluidized bed (section A-B of the curve, Fig. 6). Speed; and the degree of opening of the control valve 24 controls the rate of increase in gas outflow and the regulating maximum gas outtake rate, and conditions are established that are appropriate for any particular glass being manufactured, for example, depending on the thickness and temperature of the glass. In order to ensure high productivity, it is advisable that container 1 can be raised and lowered as quickly as possible. In order to avoid losses from splashing of finely divided material, through the upper edge 5 of the container, during its raising and lowering, gas can be taken through the pipes 7 and 8. FIG. 7 and 8 show container 1, in which a fluidized bed of finely divided material can be maintained in an unperturbed nbm evenly distributed fluidization state in the same manner as in the device shown in FIG. 1-4. In the device shown in FIGS. 7 and 8, one of the side walls 29.30 of the tank 1 has a vertical slit opening 31 for lateral insertion of products into the fluidized bed. Two nozzles 7 and 8 are located in the container 1 vertically, next to the vertical slot opening 31 and the side wall 30, one on each side of the lower end of the opening 31 Each of the nozzles 7 and 8 contains a Y-shaped channel element 11. Each of the channel elements 11 on the open side is covered with a layer of mesh 12 made of microporous fabric woven from metal wire, for which material can be used five 0 five about five 0 five 0 five similar to that used in the device shown in figures 1-4. Each of the pipes 7 and 8 is connected to the pipe 17. When sucking in pipes 7 and 8 through the pipes 17, the fluidizing gas, usually air, is extracted from the section of the layer between the channels located near the lower end of the hole 31, and the finely divided material in this the region is compacted, the transition to a static, non-fluidized, state. The finely divided material located near the upper portion of the slit 31 above the nozzles 7 and 8 is also compacted due to the fact that the supply of the liquefying fluid is stopped as a result of the compaction of the finely divided material in the lower section of the fluidized bed between the nozzles 7 and 8. This ensures that the finely chopped material is sufficiently compacted in order to block the opening 31 and prevent the finely ground material from being carried out from the container 1 through the opening 31. The suction in nozzles 7 and 8 is adjusted so as to create a degree The compaction of the finely divided material in which the opening overlaps, but so that the product, in particular, in the form of a sheet, can pass through the opening 31 and then easily through the layer of static compacted material, which is next to the opening 31, into the main part of the fluidized bed processing in this fluidized bed. In the case of a fluidized bed of porous y-alumina and using the device shown in FIG. 1-4, the nozzles were used with a cross section of 2.5 cm, a length of 16 cm, spaced 10 cm apart from each other, with a gas extraction rate of 0.76-0.86 l / s / m long channels 7 and 8. Thanks to this, A static section of finely divided material of appropriate size and degree of compaction is created, sufficient to cover the vertical slit-like opening 31. A similar vertical opening with aligned nozzles for venting may be provided on the opposite side wall 29 of the container 1. When using the device shown in FIG. 7 and 8, a portion of the compacted finely divided material, which is formed in the vicinity of the aperture 31, may have a wedge shape with a larger cross section at the base of the layer and a smaller cross section at the top of the layer. As a consequence, there may be some lateral access of the fluidizing air to the upper part of the section, above the upper part of the pipes 7 and 8. This effect can be minimized by using a modification of the device shown in FIG. 9. The nozzles 7 and 8 go down the entire depth of the fluidized bed and are divided into a series of vertically arranged compartments 32 by means of transverse walls 33. Each of the compartments 32 has an individual discharge pipe 34. The absorption that is created on the pipe 34 is separately adjusted so that the speed of air extraction from the compartments 32 decreased when passing from the south to the upper compartments 32 in the pipes 7 and 8. Separating the vertical nozzles 7 and 8 into compartments also avoids the effect that the fluidizing, taken at high pressure from the base of the fluidized bed through the lower parts of the nozzles 7 and 8, can flow back to the upper part of the layer through the upper ends of the nozzles 7 and 8. According to one embodiment of the device (Fig. 9), the nozzles 7 and 8 have a cross section of 2.5 cm and four compartments 32 with a length of 15 cm. If the planes of the nozzles are located at a distance of 10 cm from one another, how was installed to get a dense section of uniform cross-section over the entire height of the slotted opening 31 in the fluidized bed, y-alumina, the required gas extraction rate should be; 5-6 l / m in the lower compartment 32, 3-4 l / min in the third compartment 32 and O - 2 l / min in the upper compartment 32. It was found that in some cases, the upper compartment 32 may not be used. According to an embodiment of the device (fig. 10 and 11) in the center 0 five 0 five 0 five 0 0 five container installed two pairs of pipes 7 and 8 for the removal of gas, divided into compartments. A vertical separation wall 35 is placed between each of the pipes 7 and 8 and the corresponding longitudinal wall 36 of the container 1. When creating suction on the pipes 7 and 8 through the individual discharge pipes 34 connected to the compartments 32 in the pipes 7 and 8, the fluidizing gas is removed from the section between the pairs of pipes 7 and 8, and the finely divided material in this area is compacted to form a wall 37 compacted finely divided material separating the fluidized bed into two separate parts 38 and 39. Such a device makes it possible to produce a two-stage treatment of the product, for example, sheet glass, in two separated parts 38 and 39 of the fluidized bed. Part 38 of the layer may have a sufficiently high temperature, e.g., 750 ° C, to heat the glass to the temperature required for hardening. Heated sheet glass is passed from part 38 to part 39 of the layer through wall 37 of compacted finely divided material to strengthen sheet glass in part 39 of the layer, the temperature of which is suitable for hardening sheet glass in a heated state (60 - 80 ° C). The presence of the wall 37 of the compacted finely divided material, which separates the fluidized bed into two parts 38 and 39, makes it possible to produce, in various ways, fluidization in two parts of the 38 and 39 layers. Part 39 can operate in a bubbling mode using a heated fluidizing gas for this in order to achieve rapid heating of the glass sheet. Part 38 of the layer may also contain immersion heating elements. The bubbling method of fluidization increases the degree of heat transfer between the heating elements and finely divided layer material. The finely divided material in the layer portion 39 can be maintained in a calm, evenly distributed state of fluidization of the particles, suitable for strengthening sheet glass. In the device shown in FIG. 10 and 11, vertical slit-like openings can be provided in the side walls of the container 1 with associated vertical branch pipes for venting, intended for lateral entry of the sheet material in portions 38 and 39 of the fluidized bed and for escaping from them, as described in relation to the figures 7 and 8. According to the embodiment of the device (Fig. 12 and 13), the first 40 and the second 41 rows of parallel nozzles 42 for removal of gas are installed vertically in container 1 containing a fluidized bed of finely divided material. Nozzles 42 in each of the ranges 40 and 41 removed from each other to allow vertical entry of sheet glass between rows of nozzles. Each of the nozzles 42 in the first row of 40 is located opposite the corresponding pipe in the second row of 41: As shown in FIG. 13, each nozzle 42 comprises a U-shaped channel element 43. The open side of each channel element 4 is covered with a mesh of microporous woven metal wire cloth. The channels 44 are provided with end caps 45 and are divided into a number of compartments 46 by means of transverse walls 47. The individual discharge pipes 48 are connected to the channels 46. On each of compartments 46 branch pipe 42, suction is created to extract the fluidizing gas from the areas located between each pair of two rows 40 and 41 opposite each other so that the finely divided material in these areas of the fluidized bed is static, without fluidization, and compacted vertical rows 49. Nozzles 42 can have a cross section of 2.5 cm with a length of 15 compartments 46 of a separate compartment. Two rows of rows 40 and 41 nozzles 42 are 7.5 cm apart. When using a fluidized-alumina layer proper gas extraction rates are: 5-6 l / min from the bottom compartment 46 of the channel 42, 4-5 l / min from the next compartment 46, 3-4 l / min from the third compartment 46 and up to 2 l / min from the upper compartment 46. The heated glass to be hardened is lowered into the fluidized bed between two rows 40 and 41 of the pipes 42. The parts of the sheet glass that are in contact with the vertical rows 49 of the fluidized material between each other of the pipes 42 are cooled less. therefore, they are strengthened to a lesser extent than the portions of sheet glass that are in contact with itceB-thinned finely divided material between rows 49. The resulting sheet glass has a vertical strip of less hardened glass, alternating with. strips of more hardened glass in the area exposed to two row of pipes. For example, by quenching a 3.0 mm sheet of soda-lime glass intended for use as a car windscreen. glass at a temperature it is possible to obtain a zone of visibility in glass containing strips of less hardened glass (tensile stress in the center 38–39 Sh) alternating with strips of more hardened glass (tensile stress in the center 47-49 MPa). When breaking a windshield, for example, due to a stone strike, more hardened parts of wind the glasses are broken up into small non-pointed particles, while the strips of less hardened glass in the windshield glass are broken up into large particles, leaving some residual visibility in sight, which allows you to continue driving until the windshield has been replaced.
