Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of transportation structure design technology, specifically to a conveying mechanism and a conveying system. Background Technology

[0002] As a core component of many new energy products, the stability of glass substrates during transportation directly determines the final yield of the products. Due to the thinness, brittleness, and easy surface damage of glass substrates, extremely high requirements are placed on the transmission accuracy and operational stability of the conveying mechanism.

[0003] Currently, in related technologies, the power transmission of conveying mechanisms for glass substrates mostly adopts chain drive or belt drive. However, for chain drive, the chain links generate pulse-like impact forces at the moment they enter or disengage from the sprocket teeth. This impact force is transmitted to the glass substrate through the conveyor rollers, which can easily cause local stress concentration in the glass substrate and significantly increase the risk of glass breakage. For belt drive, uneven belt tension can cause lateral movement of the belt during operation, which in turn drives the conveyor rollers to generate radial vibration. This vibration directly acts on the glass substrate, which also increases its breakage rate. Utility Model Content

[0004] This invention provides a conveying mechanism and conveying system to solve the problem of vibration caused by transmission methods using chains or belts, which increases the glass breakage rate.

[0006] Beneficial effects: The rotation of the conveyor roller is achieved by gear meshing to transport the glass substrate.

[0014] Beneficial effects: By setting baffles, the movement of the glass substrate is restricted, preventing the glass substrate from shaking randomly during movement; by having the second transmission wheel plate abut against the glass substrate, the glass substrate is ensured to move stably in the transmission direction.

[0015] In one optional embodiment, the conveying mechanism further includes a second conveying component, which is kinetically connected to the first conveying roller, and a transport space is formed between the second conveying component and the first drive wheel, the transport space being suitable for transporting glass substrates.

[0016] Beneficial effects: The second conveying component and the first transmission wheel form a transport space, which clamps the glass substrate in the transport space, further reducing the shaking of the glass substrate during the transport process, thereby reducing the breakage rate.

[0027] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model.

[0028] The following is combined with Figures 1 to 4 The following describes embodiments of the present invention.

[0029] According to an embodiment of the present invention, in a first aspect, a conveying mechanism is provided for conveying a glass substrate 70, comprising a housing 10, a first conveying assembly 20, a gear transmission assembly 30, and a power assembly 40; the first conveying assembly 20 is evenly and spaced out with a plurality of such assemblies, each assembly including a first conveying roller 21 and a first gear 22, the first gear 22 being sleeved on the first conveying roller 21; the gear transmission assembly 30 includes a transmission shaft 31, a second gear 32, and a driven gear 33, both the second gear 32 and the driven gear 33 being sleeved on the transmission shaft 31, and a plurality of second gears 32 being provided, each second gear 32 meshing with a plurality of first gears 22 in a one-to-one correspondence; the power assembly 40 is meshed with the driven gear 33.

[0030] The conveying mechanism of this embodiment uses gear meshing to rotate the conveying rollers to convey the glass substrate 70. Utilizing the rigid meshing characteristics of gear transmission, there is no significant deformation space between the gears, and the transmission accuracy is high. Compared with belt or chain transmission methods in related technologies, it has higher stability, thereby reducing the breakage rate of the glass substrate.

[0031] Specifically, such as Figure 1 As shown, both the first gear 22 and the second gear 32 are helical gears to achieve changes in the transmission direction.

[0032] It should be noted that related technologies often employ chain drives or belt drives. However, with chain drives, the moment a chain link enters or disengages from the sprocket tooth groove, a pulse-like impact force is generated. This impact force is transmitted to the glass substrate 70 through the conveyor roller, which can easily cause localized stress concentration in the glass substrate 70, significantly increasing the risk of glass breakage. With belt drives, uneven belt tension can cause lateral movement of the belt during operation, which in turn drives the conveyor roller to generate radial vibration. This vibration directly acts on the glass substrate 70, also increasing its breakage rate.

[0033] Therefore, in this embodiment, a gear meshing method is used instead of chain drive or belt drive in related technologies. Multiple pairs of gear teeth mesh simultaneously (such as spur gears, which usually have multiple pairs of teeth in contact at the same time). The load is borne by multiple pairs of teeth, the force is uniform and continuous, the impact is small, and vibration is not easily generated, thereby improving the transport stability and reducing the breakage rate of the glass substrate 70.

[0034] In one embodiment, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the power assembly 40 includes a bracket 41, a power structure 42, and a transmission gear 43. The power structure 42 is mounted on the bracket 41, and the transmission gear 43 is rotatably mounted on the bracket 41. The power structure 42 is meshed with the transmission gear 43, and the transmission gear 43 is meshed with the driven gear 33.

[0035] It is worth noting that the bracket 41 provides a stable mounting carrier for the power structure 42 and the transmission gear 43, ensuring that the meshing position of the power structure 42 and the transmission gear 43 is accurate and fixed, avoiding transmission offset or meshing gap changes caused by loose component installation, reducing vibration sources in the power transmission process, improving transmission stability, and reducing the breakage rate of the glass substrate 70 during transportation.

[0036] Furthermore, such as Figure 2 As shown, the power structure 42 includes a motor 421 and a drive gear 422. The motor 421 has an output shaft 4211, and the drive gear 422 is mounted on the output shaft 4211. The drive gear 422 is meshed with the transmission gear 43.

[0037] Specifically, motor 421 is a motor motor 421.

[0038] It is worth noting that the motor 421, as a power source, can provide continuous and stable torque output. Combined with the rigid meshing of the drive gear 422 and the transmission gear 43, it can achieve precise power transmission, reduce interference with the conveying stability of the glass substrate 70, and reduce the breakage rate.

[0039] In one embodiment, such as Figure 2 As shown, the power assembly 40 also includes a revolution sensor 44 and a revolution measuring structure 45. The revolution measuring structure 45 is disposed on the output shaft 4211. The revolution sensor 44 has a measuring end 441. The revolution measuring structure 45 is adapted to rotate through the measuring end 441.

[0040] Specifically, when the output shaft 4211 rotates, it drives the rotation measurement structure 45 to rotate. When the rotation measurement structure 45 rotates, it passes through the measuring end 441 of the rotation sensor 44. The rotation sensor 44 obtains accurate information output by the motor 421 by sensing the number of times the rotation measurement structure 45 passes through, thereby accurately controlling the transportation distance.

[0041] It is worth noting that the rotation number sensor 44 and the rotation number measurement structure 45 enable precise recording and control of the electrode's transmission.

[0042] In one embodiment, such as Figure 1 As shown, the first conveying assembly 20 also includes a first transmission wheel 23 and a second transmission wheel 24. Both the first transmission wheel 23 and the second transmission wheel 24 are sleeved on the first conveying roller 21. There are two first transmission wheels 23 spaced apart, and at least one second transmission wheel 24 is provided and disposed between the two first transmission wheels 23. The first transmission wheel 23 has a baffle 231, and the space between the two baffles 231 is suitable for placing the glass substrate 70. The second transmission wheel 24 is suitable for rolling contact with the glass substrate 70.

[0043] Specifically, such as Figures 1 to 3 As shown, each first conveying roller 21 is provided with a second transmission wheel 24.

[0044] Of course, in other alternative embodiments, the number of second transmission wheel 24 can be selected according to the actual situation. It should be noted that in actual production, in order to avoid increasing the vibration factor due to a large number of second transmission wheel 24, the number of second transmission wheel 24 should be small, such as one or two.

[0045] It is worth noting that by setting the baffle 231, the movement of the glass substrate 70 is restricted to prevent the glass substrate 70 from shaking randomly during the movement; by the second transmission wheel 24 abutting against the glass substrate 70, the glass substrate 70 is ensured to move stably in the transmission direction.

[0046] In one embodiment, such as Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the conveying mechanism also includes a second conveying component 50, which is connected to the first conveying roller 21. A transport space is formed between the second conveying component 50 and the first transmission wheel 23, and the transport space is suitable for transporting the glass substrate 70.

[0047] Specifically, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the second conveying assembly 50 is arranged in four groups at intervals.

[0048] Of course, in other alternative embodiments, the number of the second conveying components 50 can be adjusted according to actual needs.

[0049] It is worth noting that a transport space is formed between the second conveying component 50 and the first transmission wheel 23, so that the glass substrate 70 is clamped in the transport space, which further reduces the shaking of the glass substrate 70 during the transport process, thereby reducing the breakage rate.

[0050] Furthermore, such as Figure 4 As shown, the first conveying assembly 20 further includes a third gear 25, which is sleeved on the first conveying roller 21. The second conveying assembly 50 includes a second conveying roller 51, a fourth gear 52, and a third transmission wheel 53. Both the fourth gear 52 and the third transmission wheel 53 are sleeved on the second conveying roller 51. The fourth gear 52 meshes with the third gear 25. Figure 1 As shown, at least one third transmission wheel 53 is provided, and a transport space is formed between the third transmission wheel 53 and the first transmission wheel 23. The third transmission wheel 53 is adapted to abut against the glass substrate 70.

[0051] Specifically, in this embodiment, such as Figure 1As shown, there are two third transmission wheel pieces 53. The two third transmission wheel pieces 53 are respectively positioned close to the two first transmission wheel pieces 23 and abut against the upper end of the glass substrate 70.

[0052] It is worth noting that a transport space is formed between the third transmission wheel 53 and the first transmission wheel 23. At the same time, the second transmission wheel 24 and the first transmission wheel 23 both abut against the glass substrate 70, so that the glass substrate 70 is sandwiched in the transport space, further reducing the shaking of the glass substrate 70 during the transport process, thereby reducing the breakage rate.

[0053] In one embodiment, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the conveying mechanism also includes a support component 60, which is disposed on the housing 10. The support component 60 has a through hole, through which the first conveying component 20 passes.

[0054] It is worth noting that by providing stable support to the first conveying component 20 through the support component 60, the conveying stability of the first conveying component 20 is further improved, and the breakage rate of the glass substrate 70 is reduced.

[0055] Specifically, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the support components 60 are provided in two sets, with the two sets of support components 60 arranged at intervals. The two ends of the first conveying component 20 are respectively arranged through the two sets of support components 60 to further improve the stable support effect.

[0056] Furthermore, such as Figure 1 As shown, the support assembly 60 includes a support member 61, and several support members 61 are provided. Each support member 61 has a through hole, and several first conveying rollers 21 are arranged through the support members 61 in a one-to-one correspondence.

[0057] Specifically, such as Figure 2 As shown, a slot is provided at the upper end of part of the support member 61, and the end of the second conveying roller 51 is provided in the slot to support the second conveying roller 51.

[0058] It is worth noting that the support member 61 is arranged through the first conveying roller 21 in a one-to-one correspondence, so as to achieve independent support for each first conveying roller 21. At the same time, the support member 61 is arranged in a one-to-one correspondence with the first conveying roller 21, which facilitates the maintenance and disassembly of the support member 61.

[0059] According to an embodiment of the present invention, in a second aspect, a conveying system is also provided, including the conveying mechanism described above.

[0060] Although embodiments of the present invention have been described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, those skilled in the art can make various modifications and variations without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention, and all such modifications and variations fall within the scope defined by the present invention.
