[0027] The present invention provides an automatic assembly device for a limiting claw and a glass clamp, as well as glass processing equipment, in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0028] Example 1

[0029] See Figure 1 and Figure 2In this embodiment, a limiting claw 1 is provided for limiting the glass clamp 2. The limiting claw 1 includes an abutment block 101, the abutment block 101 is provided with an abutment groove adapted to the end of the glass clamp 2; at least two support bars 102 are provided on one side of the abutment block 101, the two support bars 102 are open between each other, and the end of the support bar 102 is provided with a barb 103.

[0030] See Figure 1 The figure shows a schematic diagram of the glass clamp 2. In this embodiment, there are two support bars 102. The abutment groove abuts against the arc-shaped part of the glass clamp 2. The two support bars 102 are respectively abutted against the open end of the glass clamp 2. The barb 103 is used to restrict the movement of the glass clamp 2 on the support bars 102, thereby realizing the temporary positioning of the glass clamp 2 on the limiting claw 1.

[0031] To further control the glass clamp 2, the limiting claw 1 also includes a pushing cylinder 104 and a finger cylinder 105. The pushing cylinder 104 is connected to the abutment block 101. The support bar 102 is mounted on the finger cylinder 105. The two support bars 102 are symmetrically arranged on the finger cylinder 105.

[0032] See Figure 2 As shown in the figure, when the limiting claw 1 clamps the glass clamp 2, it first moves the glass clamp 2 between the two support bars 102. Then, the abutment block 101 pushes the glass clamp 2 forward under the drive of the push cylinder 104, so that the end of the glass clamp 2 is close to the barb 103. Finally, the end of the glass clamp 2 is temporarily limited on the barb 103. Then, with the push force of the abutment block 101, the glass clamp 2 is temporarily positioned on the limiting claw 1.

[0033] Furthermore, by using the finger cylinder 105, the two support bars 102 can be moved closer or further apart, thereby clamping or releasing the glass clamp 2. When the glass needs to be clamped, the finger cylinder 105 can drive the two support bars 102 to move closer to each other. When the glass needs to be released, one support bar 102 moves away from the other support bar 102, at which point the glass clamp 2 will pop out. Finally, under the push of the abutment block 101, the glass clamp 2 is clamped on the glass sheet.

[0034] It should be noted that the limiting claw 1 limits, clamps, and releases the glass clamp 2 as follows: First, the glass clamp 2 is moved between the two support bars 102 by an external moving device. Then, the abutment block 101 pushes the glass clamp 2 forward under the action of the push cylinder 104. At this time, the two sides of the glass clamp 2 will approach the support bars 102, thus achieving initial limiting of the glass clamp 2. Then, the finger cylinder 105 is activated, and the two support bars 102 move closer to each other. Combined with the pushing force at the abutment block 101, the glass clamp 2 is clamped. Finally, after the glass clamp 2 is transferred to the position where the glass sheet needs to be clamped, the finger cylinder 105 is activated, and one support bar 102 moves away from the other support bar 102. At this time, the glass clamp 2 will pop out. Finally, under the push of the abutment block 101, the glass clamp 2 is clamped on the glass sheet.

[0035] Example 2

[0036] See Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 as well as Figure 6 In this embodiment, an automatic glass clamp assembly device 3 is provided, including the limiting claw 1 as described above, and a base 301; a feeding component 302, which is disposed on one side of the base 301, and the feeding component 302 is used for feeding the glass clamp 2; a first positioning component 303, which is installed on one side of the feeding component 302, the first positioning component 303 including a first positioning platform, the first positioning platform being disposed opposite to the discharge port of the feeding component 302; a position adjustment component 304, which is installed on the base 301, and the position adjustment component 304 is used to adjust the position of the glass clamp 2; and a supporting robotic arm 305, which is used to assemble the glass clamp 2 onto the glass, and is movably mounted on the base 301. The supporting robotic arm 305 is provided with the limiting claw 1, and the limiting claw 1 is used to open the glass clamp 2. The supporting robotic arm 305 opens the glass clamp 2 through the limiting claw 1, thereby realizing the clamping of the glass sheet by the glass clamp 2.

[0037] In this embodiment, the feeding assembly 302 includes a vibratory feeder 307, the discharge port of the vibratory feeder 307 is disposed opposite to the first positioning platform, and the first positioning platform has a first positioning block 308 in the shape of an open mouth, the height of the first positioning block 308 being lower than the height of the glass clamp 2.

[0038] The first positioning block 308, which is open-mouth shaped, matches the shape of the glass clamp 2. When the glass clamp 2 is discharged from the outlet of the vibratory plate 307, the glass clamp 2 will enter the first positioning block 308 for positioning. Moreover, the purpose of setting the height of the first positioning block 308 to be lower than that of the glass clamp 2 is to facilitate the subsequent clamping of the glass clamp 2 from bottom to top, making the clamping of the glass clamp 2 smoother and optimizing the subsequent structural settings.

[0039] In this embodiment, the position adjustment component 304 includes a first rotary cylinder 309, on which a first clamping part 310 for clamping the glass clamp 2 is drivenly mounted. The first clamping part 310 includes a first clamping block 311 and a first finger cylinder 312. The first clamping block 311 has a structure that matches the glass clamp 2. Moreover, the first clamping block 311 is drivenly mounted on the first finger cylinder 312. That is to say, by controlling the first clamping block 311 through the first finger cylinder 312, the glass clamp 2 can be clamped. In addition, with the first positioning block 308 having a height lower than the glass clamp 2, the first clamping part 310 can more easily clamp the glass clamp 2.

[0040] It should be noted that after the glass clip 2 comes out of the vibrating plate 307, one end of its opening faces the vibrating plate 307. This state is the initial state of the glass clip 2.

[0041] In this embodiment, the position adjustment component 304 further includes a second rotary cylinder 313. A glass clamp fixing member 314 is driven and mounted on the second rotary cylinder 313. The glass clamp fixing member 314 is mainly used to fix the position of the glass clamp 2. When the first rotary cylinder 309 transmits the glass clamp 2 to the upper end of the glass clamp fixing member 314, the first finger cylinder 312 releases the first clamping block 311 from clamping the glass clamp 2. At this time, the glass clamp 2 is disengaged from the first clamping block 311. Then, the glass clamp 2 will be clamped on the glass clamp fixing member 314 according to its own clamping elasticity. Then, the second rotary cylinder 313 drives the glass clamp fixing member 314 to rotate, sending the glass clamp 2 to the material support robot arm 305.

[0042] Using the XYZ Cartesian coordinate system, the X direction mentioned below refers to the X-axis direction, the Y direction refers to the Y-axis direction, and the Z direction refers to the Z-axis direction.

[0043] In this embodiment, the supporting robotic arm 305 has a vertically arranged Z-direction transmission cylinder 315, on which a Y-direction transmission cylinder 316 is driven and mounted, and on which the limiting claw 1 is driven and mounted. Through this structural arrangement, the limiting claw 1 can be controlled and adjusted in the X, Y, and Z directions, allowing it to be matched to the position of the glass clamp 2 for corresponding gripping.

[0044] The cooperation between the supporting robotic arm 305 and the position adjustment component 304 is as follows: When the second rotary cylinder 313 moves the glass clamp 2 to one side of the supporting robotic arm 305, the supporting robotic arm 305 will drive the limiting claw 1 to approach the glass clamp 2. When both sides of the supporting bars 102 of the limiting claw 1 are close to the glass clamp 2, the barbs 103 on the two supporting bars 102 will hook the two open ends of the glass clamp 2. Then the limiting claw 1 will back up and bring the glass clamp 2 out of the glass clamp fixing part 314 through the barbs 103. Then, with the abutment action of the abutment block 101, the glass clamp 2 is clamped.

[0045] Finally, the supporting robotic arm 305 drives the limiting claw 1 to move to one side of the glass sheet and moves the glass clamp 2 to the position where the glass sheet needs to be clamped. Finally, the finger cylinder 105 is activated, and one support bar 102 moves away from the other support bar 102. At this time, the glass clamp 2 will pop out. Finally, under the push of the abutment block 101, the glass clamp 2 is clamped on the glass sheet.

[0046] In this embodiment, in order to meet the various adjustment requirements of the position adjustment assembly 304, the rotation angle of the first rotary cylinder 309 and the second rotary cylinder 313 is at least 180°.

[0047] In this embodiment, the base 301 is provided with a horizontally oriented electric guide rail 317, on which the second rotary cylinder 313 is driven and mounted. This arrangement allows the position of the second rotary cylinder 313 to be adjusted via the electric guide rail 317, facilitating subsequent support of the glass clamp 2 by the supporting arm.

[0048] Example 3

[0049] See Figures 1-7 In this embodiment, a glass processing device 4 is provided, including a glass transfer table 401, a controller, and an automatic glass clamp assembly device 3 as described above. Both the automatic glass clamp assembly device and the glass transfer table 401 are electrically connected to the controller. The controller controls the working state of the automatic glass clamp assembly device and the glass transfer table 401. A glass transfer belt 402 is provided on the glass transfer table 401. The automatic glass clamp assembly device is provided at both the beginning and end of the glass transfer belt 402, and at least two automatic glass clamp assembly devices are provided. By using the controller, the clamping of the entire glass clamp 2 can be made more intelligent, reducing manual intervention and achieving a high degree of automation.

[0050] The glass transfer table 401 is mainly used for glass transfer. When the glass is transferred by the glass transfer table 401 to the position where the glass clamp 2 is clamped, the automatic assembly device of the glass clamp 2 is driven to realize the clamping of the glass clamp 2 on the glass sheet.

[0051] In this embodiment, a position correction device 404 is provided on one side of the glass conveyor belt 402. The position correction device 404 includes multiple drive shafts, and multiple pulleys 405 are provided on the drive shafts. The glass conveying direction after the multiple pulleys 405 are engaged is perpendicular to the conveying direction of the glass conveyor belt 402. By setting up the drive shafts, the position of the glass can be adjusted, optimizing the entire glass clamping process 2.

[0052] In summary, the beneficial effects of the limiting claw 1, the automatic glass clamp assembly device 3, and the glass processing equipment 4 of the present invention are as follows: 1. The limiting claw 1 enables the glass clamp 2 to be fed into the glass clamp 2, making the glass clamp 2 open. Then, with the automatic glass clamp assembly device, the glass clamp 2 can clamp the glass. The whole process does not require much manual intervention, greatly reducing the labor intensity of manual labor and significantly improving the efficiency of glass processing; 2. The automatic glass clamp assembly device can realize the entire process of the glass clamp 2 from feeding, position adjustment, and support.
