By adjusting the relative position of the longitudinal slide bar 717 on the fixed seat 716, the height position of the pressure wheel group 712 is adjusted to match the glass 900 with different thicknesses.

[0037] In some specific embodiments of the present invention, the first grinding head assembly 200, the second grinding head assembly 300 and the third grinding head assembly 400 are provided with a sensor head (not shown in the figure) for sensing the position of the glass 900.

The motor 240 drives the grinding wheel to rotate to grind the glass 900; the first grinding wheel 210, the second grinding wheel 310, and the third grinding wheel 410 are driven to abut against the side of the glass 900 to be ground by the respective corresponding approaching components 220. After grinding, the first grinding wheel 210, the second grinding wheel 310, and the third grinding wheel 410 are driven to leave the glass 900 by the approaching component 220; during the movement of the first grinding wheel 210, the second grinding wheel 310, and the third grinding wheel 410, the limiting component 230 is used to limit the movement stroke of the first grinding wheel 210, the second grinding wheel 310, and the third grinding wheel 410 to ensure that the grinding wheel can just abut against the glass 900 according to the different sizes of the glass 900.

[0039] In some specific embodiments of the present invention, the approach assembly 220 includes a slide rail slider mechanism 221 and a second cylinder 222.

The second cylinder 222 drives the first grinding wheel 210, the second grinding wheel 310, and the third grinding wheel 410 to reciprocate toward the position to be ground of the glass 900. The slide rail slider is used for guidance to ensure the stability of the movement of the first grinding wheel 210, the second grinding wheel 310, and the third grinding wheel 410. The telescopic end of the second cylinder 222 is directly or indirectly connected to the slider to drive the first grinding wheel 210 / the second grinding wheel 310 / the third grinding wheel 410 to move.

The limiting block 232 is located on the moving path of the slide rail slider mechanism 221. Before the second cylinder 222 works, the telescopic end of the third cylinder 231 is extended first. When the second cylinder 222 drives the slide rail slider mechanism 221 to move, the telescopic end of the third cylinder 231 abuts against the limiting block 232, thereby limiting the moving stroke of the slide rail slider, which is equivalent to limiting the moving stroke of the first grinding wheel 210 / the second grinding wheel 310 / the third grinding wheel 410; according to the size of the glass 900, the installation position of the third cylinder 231 and the limiting block 232 can be adjusted to adjust the moving stroke of the first grinding wheel 210 / the second grinding wheel 310 / the third grinding wheel 410, which is very convenient to use.
