Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of glass feeding equipment, and in particular to a glass feeding equipment. Background Art

[0002] Glass needs to go through multiple processing steps during the production and manufacturing process, and it is often necessary to transfer the glass from one processing line to another. In this process, in order to improve the efficiency of glass processing, loading equipment is required. The existing loading equipment uses suction cups to move the glass from the carrier to the processing table. Since the suction cups are fixed on the rotating arm, they will make circular motions as the rotating arm rotates. At the same time, when the glass is placed on the carrier, the inclination angle of the glass is not fixed. There is a problem that the suction cups cannot be vertically connected to the glass surface, resulting in the suction cups and the glass cannot fit tightly. This will prolong the time it takes for the suction cups to adsorb the glass, resulting in reduced glass loading efficiency, and it is in urgent need of improvement. Summary of the Invention

[0003] In order to solve the technical problems existing in the background technology, the present invention provides a glass feeding device.

[0004] The present invention proposes a glass loading equipment, which includes a base, a supporting frame, a support plate, and a flipping assembly. The supporting frame is slidably mounted on the base, the supporting frame has a backing plate, the support plate is slidably mounted on the base, and a plurality of support feet arranged in parallel and spaced apart are movably mounted on the supporting frame, the bottoms of the plurality of support feet all rest against the support plate, and the support feet have a supporting surface. When a plurality of glasses are stacked on the plurality of support feet respectively, the top of the glass rests against the backing plate, and the bottom end surface of the glass fits into the supporting surface. The flipping assembly is mounted on an end of the base away from the backing plate, and is used to flip the glass from the supporting frame to a horizontal state. It also includes a first cylinder assembly and a second cylinder assembly. The first driving assembly drives the supporting frame to approach or move away from the flipping assembly, and the second cylinder assembly is used to drive the support plate to approach or move away from the flipping assembly. The flipping assembly has a first working position, and the support plate has a second working position. When the support plate is in the second working position, the flipping assembly contacts and is fixed with the glass, and the end surface of the supporting foot of the glass close to the flipping assembly is coplanar with the end surface of the support plate close to the flipping assembly.

[0005] Preferably, one end of the support leg away from the flip assembly is rotatably mounted on the supporting frame.

[0006] Preferably, the flipping assembly specifically includes a mounting frame, a mounting plate, a suction cup assembly, and a third driving assembly. The mounting frame is installed on the base, the mounting plate is rotatably installed on the mounting frame, the suction cup assembly is installed on the mounting plate, and when the mounting plate is in the first position, the suction cup assembly can be adsorbed and fixed on the glass. The third driving assembly is installed on the mounting frame, and the output end of the third driving assembly is connected to the mounting plate. The third driving assembly can drive the mounting plate to flip from the first position to a horizontal state.

[0007] Preferably, the base is provided with a guide groove, and the bottom of the support plate is provided with an extension portion, which is adapted to be slidably installed in the guide groove.

[0008] Preferably, when the glass is placed on the supporting legs and the bottom end surface is in contact with the supporting surface, the side walls of two adjacent glass pieces are in contact with each other.

[0009] Preferably, each support foot bottom end surface has a roller on one side close to the flip assembly.

[0010] Preferably, “the bottoms of the plurality of support legs all abut against the support plate” specifically means that the rollers on the end surfaces of the bottoms of the plurality of support legs abut against the support plate.

[0011] Preferably, it also includes a slide rail, and the supporting frame is slidably installed on the base via the slide rail.

[0012] Preferably, rubber pads are provided on the abutting surface between the back plate and the glass and on the multiple supporting surfaces.

[0013] The glass loading equipment proposed in the present invention is provided with a supporting frame that can be moved toward the glass flipping assembly, and the supporting frame is also provided with supporting feet. Since the angle of the supporting surface on the supporting feet is fixed, when stacking the glass, the bottom end face of the glass is placed on the supporting surface, so that the angle of the glass placed on the supporting frame is fixed, and the glass placed at this angle can be kept perpendicular to the angle when the suction cup is in the first working position, thereby ensuring that the suction cup can fit tightly with the glass surface when adsorbing the glass. At the same time, the glass is placed on a movable supporting frame. When the suction cup adsorbs the glass, the supporting frame approaches the suction cup, which can give a squeezing force between the glass and the suction cup, thereby effectively increasing the speed at which the suction cup adsorbs the glass, thereby further improving the efficiency of glass loading.

[0016] Figure 3 This is another state diagram of the glass feeding equipment proposed by the present invention. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0017] like Figure 1 As shown, Figure 1 This is a structural schematic diagram of an embodiment of a glass feeding device proposed in the present invention.

[0018] Reference Figure 1-Figure 2The present invention proposes a glass loading device, comprising a base 1, a carrier 2, a support plate 3, and a flip assembly 5. The carrier 2 is slidably mounted on the base 1, the carrier 2 has a support plate 21, the support plate 3 is slidably mounted on the base 1, and a plurality of support legs 6 arranged in parallel and spaced apart are movably mounted on the carrier 2. The bottoms of the plurality of support legs 6 all abut against the support plate 3, and the support legs 6 have a support surface 61. When a plurality of glasses are stacked on the plurality of support legs 6, the top of the glass abuts against the support plate 21, and the bottom end surface of the glass fits against the support surface 61. The flip assembly 5 is mounted on The end of the base 1 away from the support plate 21 is used to flip the glass from the supporting frame 2 to a horizontal state, and also includes a first cylinder assembly and a second cylinder assembly 4. The first drive assembly drives the supporting frame 2 to approach or move away from the flipping assembly 5, and the second cylinder assembly 4 is used to drive the support plate 3 to approach or move away from the flipping assembly 5. The flipping assembly 5 has a first working position, and the support plate 3 has a second working position. When the support plate 3 is in the second working position, the flipping assembly 5 contacts and is fixed to the glass, and the end face of the supporting foot 6 of the glass close to the flipping assembly 5 is coplanar with the end face of the support plate 3 close to the flipping assembly 5.

[0019] When the device is used, the carrier 2 is slid on the base 1 to move it away from the flip assembly 5, and the glass is stacked on multiple supporting feet 6 respectively so that the bottom end surface of the glass is against the supporting surface 61. When loading, the second cylinder assembly 4 is used to drive the support plate 3 to move to the second station, and the flip assembly 5 is adjusted to the first station. The glass is moved by the carrier 2 so that the side of the glass is against and fixed on the flip assembly 5. When the flip assembly 5 completes the fixing of the glass, the second cylinder assembly 4 drives the support plate 3 away from the first station again, and the supporting feet 6 of the glass fixed on the flip assembly 5 are separated from the support plate 3 and flipped. At this time, the supporting feet 6 are separated from the glass, and the first cylinder assembly drives the carrier 2 away from the flip assembly 5. When the support plate 3 moves to its original position, the carrier 2 moves relative to the support plate 3 again, and the flipped supporting feet 6 slide to the support plate 3 again. The glass is then loaded onto the support frame 2 and the bottom end face of the glass is placed on the support frame 61. The glass is then loaded onto the support frame 2 and the bottom end face of the glass is placed on the support frame 61. The glass is then loaded onto the support frame 2 and the bottom end face of the glass is placed on the support frame 2. The glass is then loaded onto the support frame 2 and the bottom end face of the glass is placed on the support frame 2. The glass is then loaded onto the support frame 2 and the bottom end face of the glass is placed on the support frame 2. The glass is then loaded onto the support frame 2 and the bottom end face of the glass is placed on the support frame 2.

[0020] Reference Figure 2In the specific structural design, the end of the supporting foot 6 away from the flip assembly 5 is rotatably installed on the supporting frame 2. When the support plate 3 and the supporting frame 2 slide relative to each other, the supporting member 6 is separated from the support of the support plate 3, thereby flipping and separating from the glass. At the same time, when the supporting frame 2 moves relative to the support plate 3 in the direction away from the flip assembly 5, it can also ensure that the supporting foot 6 slides onto the support plate 3 again and returns to its original state.

[0021] Reference Figure 3 It should be noted that the flip assembly 5 specifically includes a mounting frame 51, a mounting plate 52, a suction cup assembly, and a third driving assembly. The mounting frame 51 is installed on the base 1, the mounting plate 52 is rotatably installed on the mounting frame 51, and the suction cup assembly is installed on the mounting plate 52. When the mounting plate 52 is in the first position, the suction cup assembly can be adsorbed and fixed on the glass. The third driving assembly is installed on the mounting frame 51, and the output end of the third driving assembly is connected to the mounting plate 52. The third driving assembly can drive the mounting plate 52 to flip from the first position to a horizontal state.

[0022] Preferably, the base 1 has a guide groove 11, and the bottom of the support plate 3 has an extension portion 31. The extension portion 31 is adapted to be slidably installed in the guide groove 11, which can prevent the support plate 3 from moving in its width direction, making the device more stable to use.

[0023] During the specific structural design, when the glass is placed on the supporting foot 6 and the bottom end surface is in contact with the supporting surface 61, the side walls of the two adjacent pieces of glass are in contact with each other. During the structural design, the distance between the two adjacent supporting feet 6 can be reasonably controlled so that the two adjacent pieces of glass can be in contact with each other after being placed on the supporting foot 6, so as to prevent the glass from sliding relative to each other and being damaged during transportation.

[0024] In a further embodiment, each supporting foot 6 has a roller on the side of the bottom end surface close to the flip assembly 5, and "the bottoms of multiple supporting feet 6 are against the support plate 3" specifically means that the rollers on the bottom end surfaces of multiple supporting feet 6 are against the support plate 3.

[0025] The specific structural design also includes a slide rail, and the carrier 2 is slidably installed on the base 1 through the slide rail. Rubber pads are provided on the abutment surface between the back plate 21 and the glass and on multiple support surfaces 61 to prevent the glass from colliding with the back plate 21 or the support surface 61 during loading and causing damage.

[0026] The above description is only a preferred specific embodiment of the present invention, but the scope of protection of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any technician familiar with the technical field, within the technical scope disclosed by the present invention, who makes equivalent replacements or changes based on the technical solution and inventive concept of the present invention, should be covered by the scope of protection of the present invention.
