[0005] This application provides a glass conveying device, including a cover and a conveying assembly. The cover covers the conveying assembly to form a conveying tunnel between the cover and the conveying assembly. The conveying tunnel has an inlet and an outlet. The conveying tunnel is connected to a cleaning chamber through the inlet and to a clean room through the outlet. The conveying assembly is used to convey glass in the conveying tunnel from the inlet to the outlet.

[0006] In some embodiments, the conveying assembly includes a support and a plurality of conveying rollers rotatably disposed on the support, the plurality of conveying rollers being spaced apart along the arrangement direction of the inlet and the outlet, the conveying rollers protruding from the surface of the support facing the cover.

[0007] In some embodiments, the cover includes a top and two sides respectively connected to opposite ends of the top, the conveying roller is located between the two sides, one end of the side is connected to the top, and the other end of the side abuts against the support.

[0008] In some embodiments, the glass conveying device further includes a seal; wherein,

[0009] The seal is connected to the bracket, and the side portion away from the top abuts against the seal;

[0010] Alternatively, the seal is connected to the side portion away from the top, and the seal abuts against the bracket.

[0011] In some embodiments, the side portion includes a first portion and a second portion, one end of the first portion being connected to the top, the other end of the first portion extending in a direction that increases the distance from the conveyor roller or in a direction that remains constant from the conveyor roller, the end of the first portion away from the top being connected to one end of the second portion, and the other end of the second portion abutting against the bracket.

[0012] In some embodiments, the side portion away from the top abuts against the surface of the support facing the cover; the glass conveying device further includes an adjustment assembly connected to the support or the cover, the adjustment assembly being used to bring the support and the cover closer together or further apart.

[0013] In some embodiments, multiple adjustment components are provided, and the multiple adjustment components are spaced apart along the arrangement direction of the inlet and the outlet.

[0014] In some embodiments, the top and the side are slidable relative to each other along a first direction, such that the two sides move closer to or further away from each other, the first direction being perpendicular to the arrangement direction of the inlet and the outlet and perpendicular to the arrangement direction of the cover and the conveying assembly; the cover further includes an extension, one end of which is slidably connected to the side along the first direction, and the other end of which abuts against the outer side of the bracket along the first direction.

[0015] In some embodiments, the top is provided with a first limiting part, the side is provided with a first mating part, and the first limiting part and the first mating part are slidably connected along the first direction.

Thus, a feature defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of that feature. In the description of this application, "multiple" means two or more, unless otherwise explicitly specified.

[0039] In this specification, references to "one embodiment," "some embodiments," or simply "embodiment" mean that one or more embodiments of this application include a specific feature, structure, or characteristic described in connection with that embodiment. Therefore, the phrases "in one embodiment," "in some embodiments," "in other embodiments," "in still other embodiments," etc., appearing in different parts of this specification do not necessarily refer to the same embodiment, but rather mean "one or more, but not all, embodiments," unless otherwise specifically emphasized. Furthermore, in one or more embodiments, specific features, structures, or characteristics may be combined in any suitable manner.

[0040] To illustrate the technical solution of this application, the following description is provided in conjunction with specific accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0041] Please refer to Figure 1and Figure 2 This application provides a glass conveying device 100, including a cover 10 and a conveying assembly 20. The cover 10 covers the conveying assembly 20 to form a conveying tunnel 101 between the cover 10 and the conveying assembly 20. The conveying tunnel 101 has an inlet (not shown in the figure) and an outlet 1011. The conveying tunnel 101 is connected to a cleaning chamber 300 through the inlet and to a clean room 400 through the outlet 1011. The conveying assembly 20 is used to convey the glass 200 in the conveying tunnel 101 from the inlet to the outlet 1011.

[0042] It should be noted that the cover 10 is used to enclose the conveying assembly 20 to separate the glass 200 conveyed by the conveying assembly 20 from the space outside the conveying tunnel 101. The cover 10 may be made of metal, plastic or other materials.

[0043] The conveying assembly 20 may include a conveyor belt and a motor, or it may include a conveyor roller 22 and a motor, or it may include a conveyor chain and a motor.

[0044] The conveying tunnel 101 is a channel with an entrance and an exit 1011 at both ends. The shape of the conveying tunnel 101 can be adapted to the shape of the glass 200 conveyed by the conveying assembly 20, that is, the width and height of the conveying tunnel 101 are adapted to the height and width of the glass 200, respectively.

[0045] It should also be noted that the cleaning room 300 and the clean room 400 are separated by a wall 500, and the transport tunnel 101 passes through the wall 500, meaning that the cleaning room 300 and the clean room 400 are connected through the transport tunnel 101. The cleaning room 300 is equipped with a cleaning machine, which generates water mist and air during the cleaning of the glass 200. The clean room 400 needs to maintain a high level of cleanliness.

[0046] The conveying assembly 20 can transport the glass 200 in the cleaning chamber 300 through the entrance of the conveying tunnel 101 to the exit 1011 of the conveying tunnel 101, and then to the clean room 400.

[0047] It is understandable that since the cleaning room 300 and the clean room 400 are connected through the transport tunnel 101, the space between the cleaning room 300 and the clean room 400 can be transitioned through the transport tunnel 101. The water mist and air in the cleaning room 300 are buffered in the transport tunnel 101 and will not enter the clean room 400, thus preventing the clean room 400 from being contaminated.

[0048] The glass conveying device 100 provided in this application embodiment has a cover 10 covering the conveying assembly 20, forming a conveying tunnel 101 between the cover 10 and the conveying assembly 20. The conveying tunnel 101 has an inlet and an outlet 1011. The conveying tunnel 101 is connected to the cleaning chamber 300 through the inlet and to the clean room 400 through the outlet 1011. Therefore, during the process of conveying the glass 200 in the conveying tunnel 101 from the inlet to the outlet 1011 by the conveying assembly 20, the space between the cleaning chamber 300 and the clean room 400 can be transitioned through the conveying tunnel 101. This can buffer the water mist and wind in the cleaning chamber 300, thereby preventing the water mist and wind in the cleaning chamber 300 from entering the clean room 400 and preventing the clean room 400 from being contaminated.

[0049] It is also understandable that cleanrooms 400 often need to be equipped with air conditioning dehumidifiers. The glass conveying device 100 provided in this application embodiment can save the energy consumption of air conditioning dehumidifiers because it can prevent water mist and air from entering the cleanroom 400 from the cleaning room 300.

[0050] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 In some embodiments, the conveying assembly 20 includes a support 21 and a plurality of conveying rollers 22 rotatably mounted on the support 21, the plurality of conveying rollers 22 being arranged along the inlet and outlet 1011 (e.g., Figure 1 The conveyor rollers 22 are spaced apart along the left and right sides of the support 21 and protrude from the surface of the cover 10.

[0051] It is understood that during the process of conveying glass 200, at least two conveying rollers 22 jointly support glass 200. When the conveying rollers 22 rotate, they drive glass 200 to move from the inlet to the outlet 1011.

[0052] By adopting the above solution, the contact area between the glass 200 and the conveying assembly 20 can be reduced during the process of conveying the glass 200 in the cleaning chamber 300 through the entrance of the conveying tunnel 101 to the exit 1011 of the conveying tunnel 101, thereby avoiding damage to the glass 200.

[0053] Optionally, the conveying assembly 20 also includes a motor for driving the conveying rollers 22 to rotate on the support 21, with multiple conveying rollers 22 rotating synchronously.

[0054] Optionally, the cover 10 includes a top 11 and two sides 12 respectively connected to opposite ends of the top 11. The conveying roller 22 is located between the two sides 12, with one end of the side 12 connected to the top 11 and the other end of the side 12 abutting against the bracket 21. This arrangement makes the structure of the cover 10 simpler and easier to fix to the conveying assembly 20.

[0055] It is understood that the top 11 and the side 12 can both be configured as plate-like members extending along the arrangement direction of the inlet and outlet 1011 or block-like members extending along the arrangement direction of the inlet and outlet 1011, etc.

[0056] Please refer to this as well. Figure 3 To improve the sealing performance between the cover 10 and the conveying assembly 20, the glass conveying device 100 also includes a seal 40, which is connected to the bracket 21, with one end of the side 12 away from the top 11 abutting against the seal 40. This arrangement prevents water mist and air from leaking from the connection between the cover 10 and the conveying assembly 20 within the cleaning chamber 300.

[0057] The seal 40 and the bracket 21 can be connected together by bonding, snap-fitting or by connecting parts, such as bolts, screws or clips.

[0058] As another possible implementation, the seal 10 is connected to the side 12 away from the top 11, and the seal 10 abuts against the bracket 21.

[0059] The seal 40 and the side 12 away from the top 11 can be connected together by bonding, snap-fitting or by a connector, which can be a bolt, screw or clip.

[0060] Optionally, the material of the seal 40 can be rubber or silicone, and the seal 40 can be configured as a strip extending along the arrangement direction of the inlet and outlet 1011 or a plate extending along the arrangement direction of the inlet and outlet 1011.

[0061] Please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 In some embodiments, the side portion 12 includes a first portion 121 and a second portion 122. One end of the first portion 121 is connected to the top 11, and the other end of the first portion 121 extends in a direction where the distance from the conveying roller 22 increases or in a direction where the distance from the conveying roller 22 remains unchanged. The end of the first portion 121 away from the top 11 is connected to one end of the second portion 122, and the other end of the second portion 122 abuts against the bracket 21.

[0062] By adopting the above scheme, the width of the transport tunnel 101 can be increased (i.e., Figure 2 The width along the left and right directions allows the conveying assembly 20 to convey glass 200 with a larger width.

[0063] Please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3The side portion 12, away from the top 11, abuts against the surface of the support 21 facing the cover 10; the glass conveying device 100 also includes an adjustment assembly 30, which is connected to the support 21 or the cover 10 and is used to bring the support 21 and the cover 10 closer to each other or further apart.

[0064] By adopting the above solution, when assembling the cover 10 and the conveying assembly 20, the bracket 21 and the cover 10 can be adjusted to move closer to or further away from each other by adjusting the assembly 30, thereby ensuring that the end of the side 12 away from the top 11 can be tightly held against the surface of the bracket 21 facing the cover 10, thus ensuring that the conveying tunnel 101 can have good sealing performance.

[0065] Optionally, multiple adjustment components 30 are provided, and the multiple adjustment components 30 are spaced apart along the arrangement direction of the inlet and outlet 1011. This arrangement can provide better support for the bracket 21 or the cover 10.

[0066] In this embodiment, some adjustment components 30 are connected to the bracket 21, and the remaining adjustment components 30 are connected to the cover 10. This arrangement allows for simultaneous adjustment of both the adjustment components 30 connected to the bracket 21 and the adjustment components 30 connected to the cover 10, making it easier to move the bracket 21 and the cover 10 closer together or further apart.

[0067] Optionally, the adjustment assembly 30 may include an adjustment leg 31 and a column 32, the column 32 being arranged along the orientation of the cover 10 and the conveying assembly 20 (e.g., Figure 2 Extending along the vertical direction, one end of the column 32 is connected to the bracket 21 or the cover 10, and the other end of the column 32 is connected to the adjustable foot 31, which can be placed on the ground.

[0068] Please refer to Figure 4 and Figure 5 In some embodiments, the top 11 and the side 12 may be along a first direction ( Figure 4 The two sides 12 slide relative to each other in a direction parallel to the left and right directions, so that the two sides 12 move closer to each other or further away from each other. The first direction is perpendicular to the arrangement direction of the inlet and outlet 1011 and the arrangement direction of the cover 10 and the conveying assembly 20. The cover 10 also includes an extension 13, one end of which is slidably connected to the side 12 along the first direction, and the other end of which abuts against the outer side of the bracket 21 along the first direction.

[0069] By adopting the above solution, it is possible to transport goods of a larger width ( Figure 4 When transporting glass 200 (width in the left-right direction), the two sides 12 are spaced apart, allowing for transport of smaller widths ( Figure 4When the glass 200 is of width (in the left and right directions), the two side portions 12 are brought closer to each other. This allows the distance between the two side portions 12 to be adjusted for glass 200 of different widths. As the two side portions 12 move closer or further apart, the versatility of the glass conveying device 100 can be improved. The end of the extension portion 13 away from the side portion 12 always abuts against the outer side of the bracket 21 in the first direction, which can ensure that the conveying tunnel 101 has good sealing performance.

[0070] It should be noted that the extension 13 may be a plate-shaped member extending along the arrangement direction of the inlet and outlet 1011 or a block-shaped member extending along the arrangement direction of the inlet and outlet 1011, etc.

[0071] Optionally, the top 11 is provided with a first limiting part 111, and the side 12 is provided with a first mating part 123. The first limiting part 111 and the first mating part 123 are slidably connected along a first direction. This arrangement makes it easier to connect the top 11 and the side 12.

[0072] The first limiting part 111 can be configured as a protrusion, such as a plate-like member extending along the arrangement direction of the inlet and outlet 1011 or a strip-like member extending along the arrangement direction of the inlet and outlet 1011, and the first mating part 123 can be configured as a recess that accommodates the protrusion, such as a hole or a groove; or, the first mating part 123 can be configured as a protrusion, such as a plate-like member extending along the arrangement direction of the inlet and outlet 1011 or a strip-like member extending along the arrangement direction of the inlet and outlet 1011, and the first limiting part 111 can be configured as a recess that accommodates the protrusion, such as a hole or a groove.

[0073] It is understood that the connection between the extension 13 and the side 12 can be similar to the connection between the top 11 and the side 12, that is, the extension 13 is provided with a second limiting part 131, the side 12 is provided with a second mating part 124, and the second limiting part 131 and the second mating part 124 are slidably connected along the first direction.

[0074] The structure of the second mating part 124 can be similar to the structure of the first mating part 123, and the structure of the second limiting part 131 can be similar to the structure of the first limiting part 111.

[0075] Please refer to Figure 4 and Figure 5 In some embodiments, the glass conveying device 100 further includes a first elastic member 50 and a second elastic member 60. The first elastic member 50 holds the top 11 and the side 12 at opposite ends along a first direction, and the second elastic member 60 abuts against the side 12 and the extension 13 at opposite ends along the first direction. The pulling force of the first elastic member 50 on the side 12 along the first direction is greater than the pressure of the second elastic member 60 on the side 12 along the first direction.

[0076] By adopting the above solution, when the two sides 12 are moved away from each other, it can be ensured that the end of the extension 13 away from the side 12 always abuts against the outer side of the support 21 along the first direction, thereby ensuring that the conveying tunnel 101 has a high degree of sealing.

[0077] Optionally, both the first elastic element 50 and the second elastic element 60 can be springs or elastic rubber, etc.

[0078] Optionally, multiple first elastic elements 50 and second elastic elements 60 can be provided at intervals.

[0079] For example, two first elastic members 50 are spaced apart, and the two first elastic members 50 are respectively disposed on opposite sides of the first mating part 123. This arrangement can prevent the first limiting part 111 from deflecting relative to the first mating part 123 when the top 11 and the side part 12 slide relative to each other in the first direction, thereby preventing the first limiting part 111 from affecting the relative sliding of the first limiting part 111 and the first mating part 123.

[0080] The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this application, and are not intended to limit them. Although this application has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some of the technical features. Such modifications or substitutions do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of this application, and should all be included within the protection scope of this application.
