AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

The existing non-contact air-floating conveying methods have uneven air film thickness and slippage between the flat glass and the roller during the start and stop stage, resulting in low conveying efficiency.

Method used

A three-stage air-floating conveying device including a high position, a low position and a lifting section is designed. A negative pressure roller assembly is provided in the conveying mechanism to improve the static friction during the start-stop stage, and a lateral regularization mechanism is provided in the lifting section to prevent collision between the flat glass and the guide wheel. The air-floating gas circuit assembly is installed in the form of slide rails and sliders. The number and spacing of air-floating strips can be quickly adjusted according to the weight of the flat glass.

Benefits of technology

It effectively improves the conveying efficiency of flat glass during the start-stop stage, prevents collision between flat glass and the guide wheel, improves the smoothness and efficiency of conveying, and makes the thickness of the air film more uniform and has higher adaptability.

Abstract

The present invention provides a non-contact air-floating conveyor line for flat glass, which belongs to the technical field of glass manufacturing. A non-contact air-floating conveyor line for flat glass includes a high-position section, a low-position section and a lifting section; the present invention provides a negative pressure roller assembly in the conveying mechanism of the three sections to ensure that there is sufficient static friction between the flat glass and the conveying wheel in the start-stop stage, thereby avoiding the problem that the flat glass is prone to slipping and reducing the conveying efficiency in the start-stop stage of conveying; and, a lateral regularization mechanism is provided in the lifting section and on both sides thereof, so that the flat glass is always in the middle position of the conveying line, preventing the collision between the flat glass and the guide wheel, and improving the stability and efficiency of conveying; in addition, the air-floating air path components of the three sections all use linear slide rails and sliders to install air-floating strips, so that the number and spacing of the air-floating strips can be quickly adjusted according to the weight of the flat glass carried, thereby making the thickness of the air film generated more uniform and more adaptable.
