Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of glass processing technology, specifically a fully automatic horizontal cleaning device for curved glass. Background Technology

[0002] Curved glass is not only widely used in the construction industry, but also in other industries such as digital technology, electronics, and displays. In the electronics industry, 3D curved glass products are increasingly appearing in smartphones, smartwatches, tablets, wearable smart products, and dashboards. The use of curved glass gives products a unique and novel design with a superior feel; it also provides excellent touch sensitivity, solves the problem of insufficient antenna placement space, and enhances display and reception functions, making products more aesthetically pleasing and differentiated, thus attracting more consumers.

[0003] Currently, domestic glass cleaning processes can be broadly categorized into two types: horizontal through-flow cleaning and trough-type ultrasonic cleaning. Horizontal through-flow cleaning is mainly used for cleaning flat glass and small curved glass such as the front and back covers of mobile phones. Trough-type ultrasonic cleaning can clean both flat and curved glass; however, neither of these processes is suitable for large curved glass. If a large water tank is used to accommodate and clean large curved glass, a high-power heater is needed, which not only consumes a huge amount of electricity but also results in high equipment costs, large equipment size, and significant cleaning difficulties. The other type of curved glass cleaning process primarily relies on manual cleaning.

[0004] The curved glass cleaning process described above has the following main disadvantages: low cleaning efficiency, high labor costs, serious waste of water resources; wastewater used for cleaning is not easy to recycle and easily causes pollution to the surrounding environment; high equipment cost and large equipment size. Summary of the Invention

[0014] As a further embodiment of the present invention: both the cleaning host and the drying host include a frame, a driving component and an actuator. The frame is provided with a guide rail for guiding the movement of the actuator.

[0025] Exemplary embodiments will now be described in detail, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings. When the following description relates to the drawings, unless otherwise indicated, the same numerals in different drawings denote the same or similar elements. The embodiments described in the following exemplary embodiments do not represent all embodiments consistent with this disclosure. Rather, they are merely examples of apparatuses and methods consistent with some aspects disclosed in this embodiment as detailed in the appended claims.

[0026] Please see Figure 1 In this embodiment of the invention, a fully automatic horizontal cleaning device for curved glass includes: a cleaning and drying system having a cleaning host 6 and a drying host 7 for cleaning and drying workpieces; a water treatment system 4 for supplying water to the cleaning host and recycling and treating wastewater generated by the cleaning host and the drying host; a conveying system running through the middle of the cleaning host and the drying host, the conveying system conveying workpieces sequentially through the cleaning host and the drying host; a measuring system 3 and a processing system, the measuring system 3 for collecting geometric parameters of the workpieces and transmitting them to the processing system, the processing system outputting control commands based on the received geometric parameters to control the cleaning and drying system to clean and dry the workpieces.

[0027] Specifically, the workpiece to be cleaned is curved glass 2. The conveying system has upper and lower platforms at its beginning and end. The curved glass is placed manually on the upper platform 1. The workpiece on the upper platform 1 is conveyed to the lower platform 8 after passing through the cleaning host and the drying host. Before the curved glass passes through the cleaning host, the processing system collects the width and end face data of the curved glass 2 through the measurement system, processes the collected width and end face data to form three-dimensional data of the curved glass 2, thereby obtaining the cleaning and drying paths of the outer and inner surfaces of the curved glass 2, and outputs corresponding control commands. The cleaning host and the drying host receive the control commands and control the movement of the cleaning host and the drying host according to the cleaning and drying paths contained in the control commands. The water treatment system is controlled to supply water to the cleaning host, and the fan 5 is controlled to deliver air to the drying host. During the cleaning and drying process of the curved glass, the water treatment system 4 supplies water to the cleaning host and recycles and treats the wastewater generated by the cleaning host 6 and the drying host 7.

[0028] In addition, the water treatment system uses purified water, which is replaced regularly. The water treatment system includes a water tank, a water pump installed inside the water tank, and two filter tanks connected to the water tank. The filter tanks are connected to wastewater collection tanks installed at the bottom of the cleaning unit and the drying unit. Wastewater from the cleaning unit and wastewater from the drying unit are returned to the filter tanks through the wastewater collection tanks. After being filtered by the two filter tanks, the wastewater flows back to the water tank for recycling, ensuring the cleanliness of the water in the tank. The water pump delivers the water from the tank to the cleaning unit.

[0029] Therefore, the processing system collects the geometric parameters of the workpiece through the measurement system, outputs control commands to control the cleaning host and the drying host to clean and dry the workpiece, improves the workpiece cleanliness qualification rate and cleaning efficiency, reduces labor costs and production costs, and the wastewater is centrally treated and recycled through the water treatment system, which will not pollute the environment.

[0030] Please see Figure 2 In one embodiment of the present invention, the measurement system includes a lower measurement module 11 movably disposed at the bottom of the upper platen and an upper measurement module 12 movably disposed on the side of the upper platen near the cleaning host. The lower measurement module 11 and the upper measurement module 12 are respectively used to measure and collect the width and end face parameters of the workpiece, and transmit the collected data to the processing system.

[0031] Specifically, the lower measurement module 11 includes a lower measurement frame and several infrared sensors mounted on the lower measurement frame. The lower measurement frame is mounted on the bottom of the upper platen via a lower guide rail slider assembly consisting of a lower guide rail and a lower guide rail slider. The lower guide rail slider is connected to a lower servo screw and a lower servo motor that controls the rotation of the lower servo screw. The upper measurement module 12 includes an upper measurement frame and several infrared sensors mounted on the upper measurement frame. The upper measurement frame is mounted on the side of the upper platen near the cleaning host via a lifting cylinder. Alternatively, the upper measurement frame is mounted on the side of the upper platen near the cleaning host via an upper guide rail slider assembly consisting of an upper guide rail and an upper guide rail slider. The upper guide rail slider is connected to an upper servo screw and an upper servo motor that controls the rotation of the upper servo screw. The upper servo motor drives the upper measurement frame and its infrared sensors to rise and fall. The infrared sensors detect the curved glass end face at different times to obtain the height value of the corresponding point on the curved glass end face. Based on this data, the processing system calculates the center and radius of the curved glass. The processing system employs a microcomputer electrically connected to a lifting cylinder and a lower servo motor. When the conveying system transports the curved glass to a set position on the upper stage, it stops. The microcomputer then controls the lifting cylinder and the lower servo motor. The lower servo motor, via a lower servo screw, drives the lower guide rail slider and the lower measuring frame, thereby causing the infrared sensor on the lower measuring frame to collect the width data of the curved glass. The lifting cylinder is then controlled to extend, causing the upper measuring frame and its infrared sensor to collect the end face data of the curved glass. Afterward, the lifting cylinder retracts, causing the upper measuring frame to reset. The microcomputer obtains the three-dimensional data of the curved glass 2 using the width and end face data, thus determining the cleaning and drying paths for the outer and inner surfaces of the curved glass 2, and outputs corresponding control commands.

[0032] Furthermore, the loading platform is equipped with a sensor group and a blocking component connected to the processing system on the side near the cleaning host. The sensor group is used to monitor the conveying position of the workpiece and feed back the monitoring signal to the processing system. The processing system controls the blocking component to block the workpiece.

[0033] The sensor group uses a position sensor 14, which is positioned at a predetermined location on the loading platform, specifically at the end of the loading platform closest to the cleaning host. The position sensor 14 feeds back position signals as both ends of the curved glass pass the end of the loading platform closest to the cleaning host. The processing system calculates the length of the curved glass 2 based on the time interval between the feedback signals from the position sensor 14 and the conveying speed of the loading platform. The obstruction is a liftable baffle 13. After receiving the monitoring signal from the position sensor 14, the processing system controls the liftable baffle 13 to move and obstruct the curved glass, facilitating measurement by the measurement system. After measurement, the system controls the liftable baffle 13 to remove obstruction from the curved glass.

[0034] Please see Figure 1 In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, an intermediate transition plate 9 is provided between the cleaning host 6 and the drying host 7, and the intermediate transition plate 9 transports the workpiece cleaned by the cleaning host 6 to the drying host 7.

[0035] Please see Figure 2 , 4 6. In another embodiment of the present invention, the conveying system includes a plurality of conveying devices connected in sequence. The conveying device includes a support and rollers 10 arranged on the support. One end of each roller 10 is connected to a conveying drive member, which drives the roller 10 to convey the workpiece.

[0036] One end of the idler roller 10 is connected to a conveying drive component. The conveying drive component drives the idler roller 10 to convey the workpiece. The configuration is as follows: a passive helical gear is installed at one end of each idler roller 10, and the passive helical gear meshes with a driving helical gear. All driving helical gears are mounted on a bracket via a drive shaft. A passive pulley is mounted on the drive shaft, and the passive pulley is connected to a driving pulley via a drive belt. The driving pulley is mounted at the output end of a conveying drive motor located at the bottom of the bracket. The conveying drive motor drives the passive pulley and drive shaft to rotate via the driving pulley and drive belt. The rotation of the drive shaft drives the driving helical gear to rotate, and the rotation of the driving helical gear drives the passive helical gear and the idler roller 10 to rotate, thereby realizing the conveying of the curved glass 2. Furthermore, one end of the idler roller 10 is provided with a guide roller 16, which is used to prevent the curved glass from impacting the conveying drive component.

[0037] It should be noted that the conveyor drive motors installed at the bottom of the support frame of the conveyor device corresponding to the loading table, the washing host, and the drying host are the first conveyor drive motor 15, the second conveyor drive motor 22, and the third conveyor drive motor 28, respectively.

[0038] Please see Figure 3-6 In another embodiment of the present invention, both the cleaning host and the drying host include a frame, a drive component and an actuator. The frame is provided with a guide rail for guiding the movement of the actuator. The drive component drives the actuator to move under the guidance of the guide rail to clean or dry the inner and outer surfaces of the workpiece.

[0039] The cleaning host and the drying host include brushes and air knives, respectively. The brushes are upper brush 18 and lower brush 19, which are used to clean the outer and inner surfaces of the curved glass, respectively. The air knives are upper air knife 25 and lower air knife 26, which are used to dry the outer and inner surfaces of the curved glass, respectively.

[0040] The guide rail assembly includes: two Z-axis guide rails mounted opposite each other on both sides of the frame and a Z-axis drive mounted thereon; two Y-axis guide rails slidably mounted on the Z-axis guide rails and a Y-axis drive mounted thereon; two actuators are respectively slidably mounted on the two Y-axis drives; the Z-axis drives drive the Y-axis guide rails to move under the guidance of the Z-axis guide rails, and the Y-axis drives drive the actuators to move under the guidance of the Y-axis guide rails. The Z-axis and Y-axis drives are servo motors.

[0041] Correspondingly, the guide rail component corresponding to the cleaning unit serves as the cleaning guide rail component, and the corresponding Z-axis guide rail and its Z-axis drive are respectively the cleaning Z-axis guide rail and cleaning Z-axis drive 21; the Y-axis guide rail and its Y-axis drive are respectively the cleaning Y-axis guide rail and cleaning Y-axis drive 20. The guide rail component corresponding to the drying unit serves as the drying guide rail component, and the corresponding Z-axis guide rail and its Z-axis drive are respectively the drying Z-axis guide rail and drying Z-axis drive 23; the Y-axis guide rail and its Y-axis drive are respectively the drying Y-axis guide rail and drying Y-axis drive 24.

[0042] The working process of the cleaning host and the drying host is as follows: After measurement by the measurement system, the curved glass is conveyed to the cleaning host. The cleaning host uses servo motors (cleaning Y-axis drive 20 and cleaning Z-axis drive 21) for interpolation, driving the upper and lower brushes to move along the corresponding cleaning Y-axis and cleaning Z-axis guide rails. This allows the upper and lower brushes to move along the outer and inner surfaces of the curved glass. The brushes are driven by the servo motors to rotate in the opposite direction of the conveying motion to clean the curved glass. After cleaning, the conveying system conveys the glass to the drying host. The drying host uses servo motors (drying Y-axis drive 24 and drying Z-axis drive 23) for interpolation, driving the upper and lower air blades to move along the corresponding drying Y-axis and drying Z-axis guide rails. This allows the upper and lower air blades to move along the outer and inner surfaces of the curved glass. The high-speed airflow provided by the fan dries the outer and inner surfaces of the curved glass. After drying, the conveying system conveys the curved glass to the unloading stage.

[0043] Please see Figure 3-6 In another preferred embodiment of the present invention, the conveying system further includes a width adjustment device, which includes a lead screw installed at the bottom of the support, a slider threaded to the lead screw, and an adjusting member. The bottom of the adjusting member is fixed on the slider, and the top extends from the gap between the idler rollers to a conveying plane higher than the idler rollers. The lead screw is connected to a power component, and the processing system controls the power component to drive the lead screw to rotate. The rotation of the lead screw drives the slider and the adjusting member to move, so that the extension of the adjusting member constrains the workpiece to the corresponding conveying width.

[0044] Specifically, the width adjustment device under the cleaning unit serves as the cleaning conveying adjustable module 17; the width adjustment device under the drying unit serves as the drying conveying adjustable module 27. The cleaning conveying adjustable module 17 and the drying conveying adjustable module 27 are composed of the same power component, lead screw, slider and adjusting component that are threaded with the lead screw. The power component and adjusting component can be selected as a forward and reverse motor and a support plate, respectively. The forward and reverse motor drives the support plate to move left and right through the lead screw and slider. The left and right movement of the support plate causes its top extension to constrain the curved glass. The function of the cleaning conveying adjustable module 17 and the drying conveying adjustable module 27 is to transport the curved glass to the middle part of the cleaning assembly or the drying unit for easy cleaning and drying.

[0045] The working principle of this invention is as follows: The conveying system has upper and lower plates at its beginning and end. The curved glass is placed manually on the upper plate 1. The workpiece on the upper plate 1 is conveyed to the lower plate 8 by passing through the cleaning host and the drying host in sequence. Before the curved glass passes through the cleaning host, the processing system collects the width and end face data of the curved glass 2 through the measurement system, and processes the collected width and end face data to form three-dimensional data of the curved glass 2. From this, the cleaning and drying paths of the outer and inner surfaces of the curved glass 2 can be obtained, and corresponding control commands are output. The cleaning host and the drying host receive the control commands and control the movement of the cleaning host and the drying host according to the cleaning and drying paths contained in the control commands. The water treatment system is controlled to supply water to the cleaning host, and the fan 5 is controlled to deliver air to the drying host. During the cleaning and drying process of the curved glass, the water treatment system 4 supplies water to the cleaning host and recycles the wastewater generated by the cleaning host 6 and the drying host 7.

[0046] It should be noted that the microcomputer, position sensor, and infrared sensor used in this invention are all applications of existing technologies. Those skilled in the art can achieve the desired functions based on the relevant descriptions, or achieve the required technical characteristics through similar technologies, so they will not be described in detail here.

The scope of this disclosure is limited only by the appended claims.
