Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of liquid crystal glass substrate processing and manufacturing technology, and particularly relates to a spray mechanism for reducing scratches during glass substrate transport. Background Technology
[0002] During glass substrate transport, scratches easily occur in the contact area between the glass substrate and the transport frame, affecting the quality of the glass. The existing solution is to spray lubricant on the side of the glass substrate that contacts the transport frame before it enters the frame to reduce scratches. However, when the existing spray assembly becomes clogged, it cannot continue to spray lubricant on the glass substrate during transport in time, requiring machine shutdown for maintenance, which affects actual production. In addition, after prolonged use, lubricant tends to adhere to the surface of the spray nozzle. When not in use, the lubricant adheres to the surface of the spray nozzle and is difficult to clean after drying, which is not conducive to subsequent use. Summary of the Invention
[0003] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the above-mentioned problems in the prior art and provide a spray mechanism that reduces scratches during glass substrate transport. By setting up two spray mechanisms, they can be switched for use, which is beneficial to the continuous operation of actual production. By setting up a cleaning component, the nozzles in non-working state can be cleaned and dried, ensuring that the nozzles are clean and dry, which is beneficial to the subsequent use of the nozzles.

[0011] Furthermore, the spraying mechanism includes a first mounting pipe and L-shaped pipes evenly distributed outside the first mounting pipe, with nozzles fixedly connected to both ends of the L-shaped pipes;
[0012] An installation ring is fixedly installed at the end of the L-shaped tube away from the nozzle, and the installation ring is fixedly installed in the fan-shaped groove.
[0013] Furthermore, handheld supports are fixedly installed at both the front and rear ends of the rectangular cleaning box;
[0014] The handheld support includes a handheld plate and a third connecting column fixedly installed on the left and right ends of the rear side of the handheld plate.
[0015] Furthermore, trapezoidal support platforms are fixedly installed at both the front and rear ends of the bottom of the rectangular cleaning box.
