Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of glass conveying and sorting technology, and more specifically, to an automatic pick-and-place device for defective glass, a glass conveying mechanism, and a method of using it. Background Technology

[0002] The conveying system is a crucial piece of equipment in the production of TFT-LCD liquid crystal glass and LTPS display glass. These two types of glass are cleaned and conveyed to the inspection area, where they undergo particle inspection, surface inspection, and edge inspection before entering the packaging area. Each inspection station has two conveyor sections. Each sheet of glass is numbered and assigned a quality judgment result after inspection. Glass of different quality is then packaged on different shelves in the packaging area.

[0003] The current state of glass conveying devices and their shortcomings: Cleaned glass is input into the inspection room horizontally. First, particle inspection is carried out. Particles on the glass surface are sampled and a glass quality judgment is made. Then, the glass is flipped to 80° by a flipping machine and conveyed to the surface inspection and edge inspection stations by a conveyor for further inspection and quality judgment. After that, it is conveyed to the packaging area. After being positioned at the unloading station, the robot packages the good glass, sub-good glass and defective glass separately.

[0004] The problems with the above production process are:

[0005] 1. Glass products that are determined to be defective after particle inspection or surface inspection still undergo further surface inspection and edge inspection, resulting in a waste of energy and time;

[0006] 2. Packaging defective glass in the packaging area increases the production cycle and causes wear and tear on robots. Summary of the Invention

[0007] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide an automatic pick-and-place device for defective glass, a glass conveying mechanism and a method of use; the present invention can promptly remove defective glass from the production line when defective glass is detected, effectively improving the pick-and-place efficiency of defective glass, being highly efficient and fast, reducing energy consumption, reducing time waste, reducing equipment wear, and improving the glass production cycle.

[0008] The solution adopted by this invention to solve the technical problem is:

[0009] This invention discloses an automatic pick-and-place device for defective glass, which is installed on a glass conveying device; it includes a bracket that is rotatably coupled with the glass conveying device and rotates about the X-axis, a rotating mechanism installed on the glass conveying device and used to control the rotation of the bracket, a glass pick-and-place mechanism that is slidably coupled with the bracket, and a linear drive mechanism installed on the rotating mechanism and used to control the glass pick-and-place mechanism to move toward or away from the rotating drive mechanism.

[0010] The glass picking and placing mechanism includes a sliding frame that slides with the bracket and a glass picking and placing assembly installed at the bottom of the sliding frame and moving linearly toward or away from the sliding frame.

[0015] In some possible implementations,

[0016] The linear drive mechanism includes a lead screw arranged parallel to the support rod and rotatably engaged with a connecting rod at one end, a drive component that is driven by the end of the lead screw away from the connecting rod, a lead screw nut fitted on the lead screw, and a slide plate mounted on the lead screw nut and slidably engaged with the support rod; the sliding frame is connected to the bottom of the slide plate.

[0020] The glass picking and placing assembly includes a frame located at the bottom of the sliding frame, multiple sets of telescopic drive devices mounted on the sliding frame and connected to the frame, and several sets of glass adsorption assemblies mounted on the frame.

[0021] In some possible implementations,

[0022] The telescopic drive device is a telescopic cylinder, and the piston rod of the telescopic cylinder is perpendicular to the plane on which the frame is located.

[0023] In some possible implementations,

[0024] The glass adsorption assembly is a vacuum suction cup, which includes a vacuum tube perpendicular to the plane of the frame and a suction cup connected to the vacuum tube and located at the bottom of the frame.

[0026] A method of using a glass conveying mechanism specifically includes the following steps:

[0027] The detection unit detects the glass being transported on the glass conveying device, determines whether the glass is defective, and transmits the determination signal to the control unit.

[0028] When the glass is defective, the control unit controls the glass adsorption assembly to adsorb the glass, and the linear drive mechanism performs a sheet-removing operation to remove the glass from the glass conveying device.

Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this invention according to the specific circumstances.

[0043] The present invention will now be described in detail.

[0044] Example 1:

[0045] like Figures 1-6 As shown:

[0046] This invention discloses an automatic pick-and-place device for defective glass, which is installed on a glass conveying device 10; it includes a bracket 1 that is rotatably coupled with the glass conveying device 10 and rotates about the X-axis, a rotating mechanism installed on the glass conveying device 10 and used to control the rotation of the bracket 1, a glass pick-and-place mechanism 3 that is slidably coupled with the bracket 1, and a linear drive mechanism installed on the rotating mechanism and used to control the glass pick-and-place mechanism 3 to move toward or away from the rotating drive mechanism 2.

[0047] The glass picking and placing mechanism 3 includes a sliding frame 31 that slides with the bracket 1, and a glass picking and placing assembly 33 that is installed at the bottom of the sliding frame 31 and moves linearly toward or away from the sliding frame 31.

[0048] The glass conveying device 10 conveys the glass. When the glass is conveyed to the inspection station, the inspection unit on the glass conveying device 10 inspects the glass at the inspection station to determine whether the glass is defective. After the determination, the glass is conveyed to the pick-and-place station under the control of the glass conveying device 10.

[0049] When the glass meets the requirements, it will pass directly through the pick-and-place station, and this device will not operate.

[0050] In the initial state, this device is set in parallel with the glass conveyor. When the glass is defective and is completely located at the pick-up and place station, the glass pick-up and place component 33 in the glass pick-up and place mechanism 3 will move to contact the defective glass and clamp and adsorb it to fix it.

[0051] After the defective glass and the glass picking and placing mechanism 3 are fixed in place, the glass picking and placing mechanism 3 and the defective glass are moved away from the glass conveying device 10 by the linear drive device 4, so that the defective glass is removed from the glass conveying device 10.

[0052] After being removed and held and adsorbed by the glass pick-and-place mechanism 3, the defective glass rotates around the X-axis under the control of the rotating mechanism and rotates to a horizontal position away from the glass conveying device 10.

[0053] The linear drive device 4 controls the glass picking and placing mechanism 3 to move linearly in the horizontal direction (e.g., Figure 1 As shown, it moves along the Z-axis and moves above the defective glass collection box for collecting defective glass. The glass pick-and-place mechanism 3 then places the adsorbed defective glass into the defective glass collection box.

[0054] After completion, the device moves in the opposite direction to its initial position.

[0055] This invention allows the entire conveying device to transport glass even when handling defective glass, without affecting the glass conveying cycle. While one defective glass is being handled, the glass conveying device 10 continues to transport the glass. When the handling of a defective glass is completed, the next glass will be perfectly positioned at the handling station. If the glass is good, the device does not operate; if the glass is defective, the device will continue to work and handle the defective glass at the handling station. Compared to existing glass conveying devices, this invention avoids downtime due to defective glass, has a good working cycle, and greatly improves glass conveying efficiency. In the packaging area, only qualified glass needs to be packaged; defective glass entering the packaging area will not increase the production cycle or cause robot wear.

[0056] In some possible implementations, in order to effectively control the transport of defective glass from the glass conveying device 10 to the defective collection box;

[0057] The rotary drive mechanism 2 includes a rotating shaft 21 that rotates in conjunction with the glass conveying device 10 and rotates about the X-axis, and a rotary drive device 22 for driving the rotating shaft 21 to rotate; one end of the bracket 1 is connected to the rotating shaft 21.

[0058] Furthermore, the glass conveying device 10 is provided with a bearing seat assembly base plate, the bearing seat assembly is installed on the bearing seat assembly base plate, the rotating shaft 21 is rotatably engaged with two sets of bearing seat assemblies respectively, the bearing seat assembly is provided with a step, the rotary drive device 22 is engaged with one end of the rotating shaft 21, and a retaining ring is provided at the other end of the rotating shaft 21; thereby effectively preventing the rotating shaft 21 from axially moving.

[0059] Preferably, the rotary drive device 22 includes a rotary drive motor, a small gear coaxially connected to the output end of the rotary drive motor, and a large gear connected to one end of the rotating shaft 21 and meshing with the small gear; the large gear and the small gear have the same module; the transmission is achieved through gear meshing, ensuring that the rotating shaft 21 rotates around its axis, thereby driving the support 1 to rotate;

[0060] The rotary drive motor is a servo motor. The servo motor is an angle variable output type with a brake. The angle variable output ensures accurate positioning. When the rotating shaft 21 rotates to a certain position, the brake can ensure that it is stable at that position.

[0061] In some possible implementations, in order to effectively achieve the sliding cooperation between the glass picking and placing mechanism 3 and the bracket 1, so that under the control of the linear drive mechanism, it can cooperate with the rotary drive mechanism 2 to transport defective glass into the defective collection box, and can effectively remove defective glass from the glass conveying device 10;

[0062] The bracket 1 includes at least two sets of parallel support rods 11 with one end connected to the rotary drive mechanism 2, and connecting rods 12 connected to the end of the support rods 11 away from the rotary drive mechanism 2; the glass picking and placing mechanism 3 is slidably engaged with the support rods 11 and slides along the length of the support rods 11.

[0063] Furthermore, a connector is provided on the rotating shaft 21 that is connected to the bracket 1 and is arranged along the axial direction of the rotating shaft 21; the connector is provided in a one-to-one correspondence with the support rod 11 and is connected to each other.

[0064] In some possible implementations, in order to ensure the transmission accuracy of the linear drive mechanism;

[0065] The linear drive mechanism includes a lead screw 41 arranged parallel to the support rod 11 and rotatably engaged with the connecting rod 12 at one end, a drive component 42 that is driven by the end of the lead screw 41 away from the connecting rod 12, a lead screw nut 43 fitted on the lead screw 41, and a slide plate 44 installed on the lead screw nut 43 and slidably engaged with the support rod 11; the bottom of the sliding frame 31 is connected to the slide plate 44.

[0066] Preferably, a fixed seat is also provided on the rotating shaft 21, and one end of the lead screw 41 passes through the fixed seat and is connected to the drive component 42; the lead screw 41 is rotatably connected to the fixed seat.

[0067] The drive unit 42 is a servo motor, and the lead screw 41 is an angular variable output type servo motor, which accurately realizes the position control of the pick-and-place unit. The servo motor is connected to one end of the lead screw 41, which drives the lead screw 41 to rotate around its axis. The rotation of the lead screw 41 drives the lead screw nut 43 to move along the axis of the lead screw 41, thereby causing the slide plate 44 mounted on the lead screw nut 43 to move along the longitudinal direction of the lead screw 41. This, in turn, drives the sliding frame 31 mounted at the bottom of the slide plate 44 to move along the longitudinal direction of the lead screw 41, thereby driving the defective glass adsorbed by the glass adsorption assembly 332 to move along the longitudinal direction of the lead screw 41. When the defective glass is removed from the glass conveying device 10, the glass adsorption assembly 332 is controlled to move towards the side closer to the rotating shaft 21. When the defective glass is placed into the defective glass collection box, the glass adsorption assembly 332 is controlled to move away from the rotating shaft 21.

[0068] Furthermore, the lead screw 41 achieves rotational engagement with the bracket 1 through a bearing.

[0069] In some possible implementations,

[0070] A linear guide rail is provided on the support rod 11; the slide plate 44 is connected to the linear guide rail slider to achieve sliding engagement.

[0071] The glass handling assembly 33 is mainly used for clamping, adsorbing and fixing defective glass; the clamping of defective glass can be achieved by using a robotic gripper in the existing technology.

[0072] In some possible implementations,

[0073] The glass picking and placing assembly 33 includes a frame 331 located at the bottom of the sliding frame 31, multiple sets of telescopic drive devices 32 mounted on the sliding frame 31 and connected to the frame 331, and several sets of glass adsorption assemblies 332 mounted on the frame 331.

[0074] The telescopic drive device 32 is mainly used to control the frame 331 to move closer to or further away from the sliding frame 31, so that the glass held and adsorbed by the glass adsorption component 332 can be smoothly and gently placed into the defective glass collection box.

[0075] When the defective glass is directly above the defective glass collection box, the telescopic drive device 32 is activated, the control frame 331 moves away from the sliding frame 31 and places it inside the defective glass collection box. After the bottom of the defective glass is effectively supported, the glass adsorption component 332 puts the defective glass down and no longer clamps and adsorbs it. The entire device then returns to its initial position to wait for the next operation.

[0076] Preferably, a guide post is provided on the frame 331, and a guide hole is provided on the sliding frame 31 to cooperate with the guide post. The movement of the frame 331 is guided by the cooperation of the guide post and the guide block.

[0077] Furthermore, such as Figure 1 As shown, frame 331 is a cuboid structure including multiple sets of Z-axis rods and two sets of X-axis rods. The Z-axis rods are located between and connected to the two sets of X-axis rods. Glass adsorption components 332 are multiple and mounted on the X-axis rods, as shown... Figure 1 The glass adsorption assembly 332 shown consists of two sets, with three sets on each X-axis rod.

[0078] In some possible implementations,

[0079] The telescopic drive device 32 is a telescopic cylinder, and the piston rod of the telescopic cylinder is perpendicular to the plane where the frame 331 is located.

[0080] Furthermore, the telescopic cylinder serves as the power source for the linear movement of the frame 331 towards or away from the sliding frame 31. It is a single-acting spring-return type cylinder with threaded holes on its side and is bolted to the outer side of the frame 331. The piston rod is connected to the frame 331 to control the frame 331 to move towards or away from the sliding frame 31.

[0081] In some possible implementations, to prevent the glass from being damaged by the glass drive assembly during glass handling;

[0082] The glass adsorption assembly 332 is a vacuum suction cup, including a vacuum tube 3321 perpendicular to the plane of the frame 331, and a suction cup 3322 connected to the vacuum tube 3321 and located at the bottom of the frame 331.

[0083] Preferably, the vacuum tube 3321 is connected to a vacuum solenoid valve, which controls the vacuum suction cup to achieve the adsorption and fixation of defective glass.

[0084] Vacuum suction cups are existing products that can be purchased directly from the market and assembled; their internal structure will not be described in detail here.

[0085] This device is suitable for glass conveying devices 10 of different sizes. Before use, simply select the appropriate size of rotating shaft 21.

[0086] Furthermore, in order to ensure that the suction cup 3322 is accurate and stable during the glass picking process, the suction cup 3322 adopts a parallel ribbed design. The suction cup 3322 has a large contact area with the glass and is strong and not easily deformed, so it can more accurately hold the glass.

[0087] Example 2:

[0088] A glass conveying mechanism includes a glass conveying device 10, a detection unit mounted on the glass conveying device 10, an automatic defective glass pick-and-place device mounted on the glass conveying device 10 as described in Embodiment 1, a defective glass collection box, and a control unit that is signal-connected to the automatic defective glass pick-and-place device and the detection unit respectively; the automatic defective glass pick-and-place device is located on one side of the output end of the detection unit; there are multiple sets of automatic defective glass pick-and-place devices arranged sequentially along the conveying direction.

[0089] The X-axis is set along the conveying direction of the glass conveying device 10; after cleaning, the glass is conveyed into the inspection station and inspected by the detection unit.

[0090] The glass is first conveyed horizontally to the inspection station. After inspection, the horizontally placed glass is rotated 80° by the flipping device on the glass conveyor 10 and then enters the pick-and-place station. Defective glass found during inspection is removed from the pick-and-place station by the defective glass automatic pick-and-place device and placed in the defective glass collection box. Other qualified glass will continue to be conveyed to the packaging area for packaging by the glass conveyor 10.

[0091] The output end of the detection unit described in this application is the end that outputs the glass after the glass has been detected;

[0092] Example 3:

[0093] A method of using a glass conveying mechanism specifically includes the following steps:

[0094] The detection unit performs surface inspection on the glass conveyed on the glass conveying device 10, determines whether the glass is defective, and transmits the judgment signal to the control unit.

[0095] The flipping device flips the inspected glass and performs another surface and edge inspection to re-evaluate the glass.

[0096] When the glass is defective, the control unit controls the glass adsorption component 332 to adsorb the glass, and the linear drive mechanism performs a sheet picking operation to remove the glass from the glass conveying device 10.

[0097] The rotary drive mechanism 2 controls the bracket 1 to rotate around the X-axis, rotating the defective glass adsorbed by the glass adsorption assembly 332 to a horizontal position.

[0098] The linear drive mechanism is restarted, controlling the defective glass to move above the defective glass collection box, and moves to one side of the defective glass collection box via the telescopic drive device 32, while the glass adsorption assembly 332 lowers the defective glass.

[0099] The glass handling mechanism 3 and the support 1 return to their initial positions, ready for the next operation.

[0100] Compared with existing methods of placing defective glass, this invention uses a defective glass picking and placing device installed on the glass conveying device 10, which can quickly pick up and place defective glass into the defective collection box. This method is efficient, fast, reduces energy consumption, reduces time waste, reduces equipment wear, and improves the glass production cycle. It is also applicable to the transmission of G4 and G4.5 glass.

[0101] In some possible implementations, stainless steel is selected as the material for the shaft 21 to ensure that the shaft 21 unit can bear the torque required by the entire device.

[0102] In some possible implementation methods, in order to ensure that the pick-and-place unit and the pick-and-place moving unit of the automatic pick-and-place device for defective glass have sufficient strength and that the torque required during rotation is moderate, the relevant structural components of the glass pick-and-place mechanism 3 are made of aluminum alloy.

[0103] This invention is not limited to the specific embodiments described above. The invention extends to any new feature or combination disclosed in this specification, as well as any new method or process step or combination disclosed herein.
