The invention provides a method and apparatus for thermally treating a succession of glass articles in a fluidised bed. The articles are immersed in a gas fluidised bed of particulate material which is maintained in a quiescent uniformly expanded state of particulate fluidisation. The bed temperature is regulated by heat exchange within the bed enhanced by engendering agitation within the bed. The invention applies particularly to the thermal toughening of a succession of glass sheets. 公开号:SU843729A3 申请号:SU772494003 申请日:1977-06-09 公开日:1981-06-30 发明作者:Мартин Баллард Джоффри 申请人:Пилкингтон Бразерс Лимитед (Фирма); IPC主号:
专利说明:
The invention relates to the industry of building materials, in particular to technology and equipment for the production of hardened glassware, which have high strength. The closest in technical essence and the achieved result is a method of tempering glassware by successive heating and cooling in a fluidized bed of dispersed material and a device for tempering glassware containing a heating mechanism, a bath with dispersed material and means for supplying gas to the bottom of bath 1. However, with the continuous cooling of glass products (-Dopping into the bath every 60 seconds), the dispersed material is heated, the quality of the products decreases. . The purpose of the invention is to improve the quality of glassware,. This goal is achieved by the fact that in a known method of hardening glassware by successive heating and cooling in a fluidized bed. Dispersed material before immersion dispersed material in at least one area cool and mix with gas, and heat is removed from the upper zone of the layer and gas is supplied to it, and in a known device for quenching glassware containing a heating furnace, a bath with dispersed material, means for supplying gas to the bottom of the bath, refrigerators and gas inlets The coolers are located in the upper part of the bath, the gas inlets are in the lower part of the refrigerators, and the bath is made with a lid on which the refrigerators are fixed. five Intensive cooling and mixing of the fluidized bed. A layer of dispersed material contributes to the formation of a homogeneous, well-cooled medium to supply heated 0 glassware, which increases the degree of hardening, increasing the quality of glassware. FIG. 1 shows the front view of the devices, FIG. 2 - the same 5 is a side view of FIG. 3 - the same, top view; in fig. 4 - refrigerators designed to lower in the upper part of the fluidized bed (in the direction of the switch I in Fig. 5) -. 0 in FIG. 5 is a sectional view of the V-v in FIG. four; in fig. b - longitudinal section (an alternative version of the gas supply nozzle); on fi g. 7 is a section along VM, VII in FIG. 6 Glassware intended for quenching in the form of sheet 1 is suspended on grips 2 located on a beam (not shown), which nepefeosit sheets of glass successively through a heating furnace (not shown) to the cooling unit in which the device is located (Fig. 1). Each sheet in turn is rapidly cooled when it is lowered into a gas-fluidized layer of crushed material, which is in an unsaturated, uniformly expanded fluidization state, and is contained in the bath 3, having a rectangular horizontal section. The crushed material that forms the fluidized bed is an inert refractory material such as 5-alumina with a particle size in the range of 20-160 µm with an average particle size of about 60 µm. Under the lower part of the tank 3 of the tank are gas supply facilities. B the bottom of the bath - the discharge chamber 4, into which the fluidizing gas is fed, usually air, which is carried out under pressure through the pipe 5. Throughout the base of the bath 3 between the ward itself and the discharge chamber 4 passes a microporous membrane 6. The edges of the membrane b are clamped between the flanges 7, passing through the upper part of the discharge chamber. The membrane consists of multiple layers of durable microporous paper that are laid on a perforated steel plate that has a regular distribution of holes drilled in the plate. A wire mesh, such as stainless steel, is woven into the top of the paper. Significant pressure drops occur on a homogeneous microporous membrane, which can exceed 60% of the discharge pressure. This ensures a uniform distribution of the fluidizing gas flowing upwards through the upper surface of the membrane into the bath 3. The high pressure differential across the membrane makes it possible, by controlling the discharge pressure in chamber 4, to sensitively control the velocity of the upwardly directed gas flow through the crushed material. In this example, the 1-alumina is in an unperturbed, uniformly relaxed fluidization state, with such control of the injection pressure that the gas velocity through the bed It was located between the speed, the minimum fluidization and the speed corresponding to the maximum expansion of the bed, in which the fluidization of the dense phase is maintained. Thus, the crushed material in the bath 3 is easily maintained in an unperturbed, uniformly expanded fluidization state, which gives a significant positive effect when creating the required stresses in the glass and simultaneously substantially eliminating the loss of sheet glass as a result of its destruction in the layer. The temperature of the fluidized bed in the bath 3 is regulated by heat exchange with the crushed material in the fluidized bed area around the walls. 5 so that the central part of the fluidized bed remains free, i.e. in that part in which the heated sheets of glass are immersed. The depth of the layer in the bath 3 is sufficient to achieve full immersion of all the usual dimensions of flat glass used for quenching when cutting and bending sheets to the size and shape of windshields of automobiles. In addition, a straight 5 rectangular horizontal cross section of the bath is sufficient to accommodate all the dimensions and profiles of sheet glass intended for quenching. Refrigerators are 0 many packages of vertical cooling tubes, which are installed in the bath 3 near the inner surfaces of the walls. Each package of cooling tubes consists of a series of vertical pipes 8, which are connected in series with U-shaped end connectors 9. The pipes are attached to the side walls of the bath using mounting brackets (not shown). 0 Bath 3 has more longitudinal side walls 10 and 11 and front walls 12 and 13. A package of vertical cooling pipes 8, installed along the inside of wall 11, is supplied with cooling water at one end through an inlet pipe 14. This package of pipes is connected in series with a similar package of vertical cooling pipes near the end wall 12, and the outlet tube 0 15 dl water chillers take it away from the far end of the wall 12 to a position located near the inlet pipe 14. Similarly, cooling water is supplied through the inlet pipe five 16 to one end of a package of vertical cooling pipes near the end wall 13 and this package are connected in series with a package of cooling pipes mounted near the end wall 10. Discharge pipe 17 0 runs along the upper part of the bath near the wall 10 from the far end of this wall to a position close to the inlet pipe 16. The flow of cooling water through the packages is vertical oh- “ five The enclosing pipes, which are respectively located near the walls of the bath, can be effectively adjusted from a position adjacent to one of the ends of the bath. To ensure local mixing, a gas supply port 18 is provided located at the bottom of each bag. The pipe 18 is welded to the end extensions 9 in the lower part of the package of vertical cooling pipes 8. The gas feed inlet pipe 19 is connected to the pipe 18 and passes upwards through part of the tank. In addition, vertically diverting air-emitting branches 20 are provided, located along nozzle 18. Each branch 20 is provided with a dome-shaped cap 21 of permeable material. The branches 20 are located in the free spaces between the cooling tubes at the bottom of the bath 3. In the alternative, each of the outlet branches may be a double outlet having two domed caps 21 that are spaced apart on each side of the cooling tubes to ensure greater uniformity of the upward bubbling on both sides of the cooling tubes. The pipe 18 passes directly around the bottom of the tank under all the packages of vertical cooling pipes and the far end of the pipe 1 &, which is returned back near the air supply pipe 19, is closed. Through the inlet pipe 19, a fluidizing gas (usually air) is supplied under pressure and the air is intensively bubbled through the permeable caps 21 since it is supplied at the rate required for mixing the crushed material directly around the area adjacent to the side walls of the bath. Bath 3 is equipped with a cover 22 - (in the open position in Fig. 1-3). The closed position of the lid is shown in FIG. 2 at 23. This cover is usually closed during the time interval between removing one treated glass sheet from the fluidized bed and lowering the next sheet of glass to be treated in the bed. The cover 22 is secured with loop plates 24, which are attached to an axis 25 supported in hangers 26, which are mounted on a support beam system 27 mounted on a massive base 28. The cover 22 is raised and lowered by means of a cylinder 29 mounted on one end of the carrier beam system 27. At its lower end; the cylinder 29 rotates on the swivel fork 30, provided in the bracket 31, which is attached to the base 28. The piston rod 32 extending from the cylinder 29 has, at the end, a fork 33, which is connected by means of a rotary pin to the lever 34, fastened to a loop plate 24 on one side of the lid. Regulating the flow of hydraulic fluid in a known manner into the cylinder 29 provides raising and lowering of a cover. A spring motor 35 connected to one end of an axis 25 normally holds the key 22 in its closed position 23 and the cylinder works in opposition to this spring motor when the cover is lifted. Heat is removed from the upper part of the fluidized bed by circulating the cooling fluid in a closed path to provide heat exchange with the upper part as a whole, while gas mixing the fluidized material in the upper part of the bed leads to simultaneous maintenance of the unperturbed fluidized state in the lower part of the bed. This is achieved by using refrigerators in the form of a lattice of cooling pipes, fixed under cover 22 and intended to be lowered into the upper part of the tank while the cover is being lowered onto the tank. The lattice of the cooling pipes is divided into three groups 36-38 and each group consists of a package of fifteen pipes, each of which has a rolled up shape. Group 36 (Fig. 3 and 4) consists of tubes 39, which have a chess arrangement in this group. On one side of the lid 22 (FIG. 3), two lead-in tubes 40 and 41 for cooling water are provided, which respectively supply water to the lead-in components 42 and 43 installed in the block 44 under the lid. One end of each of the collapsed pipes 39 is connected to one of the inlet headers 42 and 43 (FIG. 4). In block 45 there are corresponding water outlet headers connected to the other ends of pipes 39 of group 36 and these collector in block 45 are connected to headers water input in block 46, which is connected introductory ends of coiled cooling pipes 47 of the next group of 37 cooling pipes. The pipes 47 are made in the same way as pipes 39 of group 36. The pipes 47 are connected successively with pipes 48, which are also made similar to pipes 39. The distal ends of pipes 48 are connected via manifolds in block 49 to cooling water outlet pipes 50 and 51. In this way the cooling water flow provided over the entire grid of cooling tubes mounted under the hood. The gas supply pipes 52 are fastened under groups 36-38 of cooling pipes 39, 47 and 48. Each gas supply node includes an inlet manifold 53 that feeds all gas-supporting pipes 52 having branches 54 with permeable dome-shaped caps 55 installed in the spaces between the lower parts of the coiled cooling tubes. The outlet branches 54 with their permeable caps 55 are distributed over the entire region of the lower part of each group of cooling tubes of the grid. When a glass sheet is immersed in a fluidized bed, the upper part of the fluidized bed receives more heat from the glass than the lower part of the bed. After the glass sheet in the layer is cooled and lifted from the layer, the cover 22 is lowered to its position 23 when the cylinder 29 is activated and when the cover is lowered, a grid of cooling tubes formed by groups 36-38 is inserted into the upper part of the bath. This cooling tube array is positioned between the packs of cooling tubes 8, which extend along the inside of the side walls of the bath 3. Simultaneously with the mixing of the layer around the side walls, gas is supplied to the inlet manifolds 53, so that the entire upper part of the layer is in the mixing state to facilitate cooling due to heat exchange with cooling tubes 39, 47 and 48. The unperturbed pseudo-fluidization state in the lower part of the bed is unchanged even after turning off the gas supply to the collectors 53 and to the inlet pipe 19 The unperturbed state of the layer as a whole is restored again just before raising the cover 22, which leads the grill of cooling tubes out of the top of the layer. As a result, the upper part of the bed is maintained at a certain temperature in a state ready to receive the next heated sheet of glass to be strengthened and lowered into fluidized bed. layer. The use of a grating of cooling tubes under cover 22 is not a significant feature, but it helps speed up the process in mass production, shortening the time between reinforcement steps of successive sheets, It is desirable to install each of the gas supply tubes almost horizontally so as to avoid transferring the fluidized gas between different locations in fluidized bed gas supply pipe when the gas supply is turned off. In an alternative embodiment of the gas supply pipes 18 or 52, in which the propensity to transfer gas through pipes from one part of the fluidized bed to another is eliminated (FIGS. B and 7), which is shown to the modifier of one of the gas supply pipes 18, the latter has a sequence of air outlets 56 along the top of the pipe, with a diameter of 1.5 mm and placed at intervals of 50 mm. The nozzle 18 is wrapped with six turns of microporous paper 57, which is about five times thicker than the paper used in building the membrane in the lower part of the fluidized bed and having a higher permeability than the paper of the membrane 6. The outer tube 58 is positioned over the paper 57 and there is a series of double discharge slots 59 along the top of the tube 58. The ends of the paper layers are sealed with epoxy resin and silicone rubber (position 60). These seals move away from the ends of the outer pipe 58 to the air inlet 18.:, l. : .. the gas supplied through the nozzle 1b is evenly distributed when passing through the turns of paper 57 and 9 EXIT through the double discharge slots 59 in the outer tube 58 to ensure uniformly bubbling of the fluidized crushed material in the cooling tubes Close to the side walls of the tank. Due to the low permeability of the coils of paper 57, gas in the feed pipe 18 from the fluidized bed is prevented from entering. This eliminates the false feed of gas through the gas feed pipes 18 in the fluidized bed. The gas supply pipes 52 on the lid are made and work in the same way. Increased cooling may be achieved by increasing the number of vertical cooling tubes 8, which are mounted near the side walls of the bath. This can best be done by strengthening the single packs of cooling pipes 8, one or more cooling packs of pipes installed parallel to the side walls of the bath 3. This leads to a double or even three rows of vertical cooling tubes near each side wall of the bath containing a fluidized bed. At the same time, sufficient space is left for immersing the glass sheet to be treated in the central part of the layer. In one of these versions, a double stack of cooling tubes 8 is provided, mounted near the side walls of the bath. Each of the packages of cooling pipes 8 has a shape (Fig. 3) and near each side wall of the bath, the inner p-tube of pipes is installed with a staggered shift by half a step relative to the outer package of pipes. Each package can be equipped with its own gas supply pipe. The total surface area of the cooling of the double stack of cooling tubes is approximately 12 square meters. Each pipe has an outside diameter of 22 mm and the total length of the cooling pipes is 100 mm. The flow rate of cooling water through the pipes is 60 liters / min. Air is supplied to gas supply pipes under a pressure of 69 x 10 N / m. During the cycle, the hardening of successive sheets of glass of 60 s, the gas supply nozzles operate for 40 s and turn off for 20 s. The time of the yogruzk X1 of each sheet of glass in the pseudo-fluidized bed is 8 seconds, for which the middle 2 () - second period is applied, during which the gas supply to the pipes 18 is stopped. . : -; :: V When hardening glass sheets with a thickness of 2.3 mm and a total overall size of l, 5 0.66 mm, the average glass temperature at the moment it enters the fluidized bed is about, 5g5 KW of energy is required to maintain the temperature of the layer by 85 ° C in case of sheet hardening glass (one every 60 s). Similar cooling intensity is achieved when the temperature of the cooling water rises from 9 ° C at the inlet to 22 ° C at the outlet. The intensity of heat exchange with the crushed fluidized bed material is controlled by regulating the flow rate of cooling water through cooling pipes located around the side walls of the bath and attached to the lid, as well as controlling the intensity of the mixing air into the gas supply pipe 19 and the inlet manifolds 53 of the gas supply device attached to the grid cooling tubes under the cover. ten
