Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of glass processing and conveying, and in particular to an intelligent conveying device for cold-end processing of neutral borosilicate glass. Background Art

[0002] In the production of glass tubes, the appearance inspection device can inspect and grade the appearance of the glass tubes, and then the glass tube grading and conveying mechanism can convey glass tubes of different grades separately, so that glass tubes of different grades can be stored separately;

[0003] Chinese patent publication number CN218260282U discloses a glass tube grading conveying mechanism comprising a first conveying device, multiple second conveying devices, and a pipe-pumping device. The pipe-pumping device comprises a pipe-pumping plate and a drive assembly. Two connecting devices are provided at the bottom second conveying device. Each of the first conveying device's corresponding second conveying devices is provided with a pipe-pumping device. The two connecting devices are located on either side of the bottom second conveying device and comprise a first telescopic assembly and a receiving rod. This solution relies on the first conveying device to convey glass tubes sequentially through the distributed second conveying devices. When a glass tube's grade corresponds to a second conveying device it has passed through, the pipe-pumping device transfers the glass tube to the corresponding second conveying device for graded conveyance and subsequent storage.

[0004] The above-mentioned prior art solution has the following drawbacks: when conveying glass tubes in a graded manner, the above-mentioned solution requires that the glass tubes sequentially pass through a plurality of second conveying devices at different positions. When the second conveying device that the glass tube passes through is not corresponding to the grade, the telescopic assembly needs to be controlled to drive the tube-moving device to retract to avoid the conveyed glass tube. When the second conveying device that the glass tube passes through is corresponding to the grade, the tube-moving device is controlled to rotate to move the glass tube to the second conveying device. In other words, the glass tube-grading conveying process requires multiple different motion switching controls. If an operation error or signal transmission error occurs during the control process, it is easy to cause a glass tube of one grade to be conveyed to a second conveying device corresponding to another grade, resulting in a conveying error. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of the present invention is to provide an intelligent conveying device for cold end processing of neutral borosilicate glass, so as to solve the technical problem in the prior art that the glass conveying device needs to perform multiple motion switching controls according to the situation when performing graded conveying, which is prone to transportation errors.

[0006] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention can be achieved through the following technical solutions:

[0012] As a further solution of the present invention: the inner wall of the transfer box is provided with a soft surface layer material.

[0013] As a further solution of the present invention: the sliding mechanism includes a supporting guide rail, the supporting guide rail is connected to one end of the supporting base, and a detachable slide seat that is slidably connected to the supporting guide rail and cooperates with the transfer box body is connected to the end of the supporting guide rail away from the transfer box body, and the end of the supporting guide rail close to the electric push rod is connected to a travel switch electrically connected to the electric push rod.

[0014] As a further solution of the present invention: the detachable slide includes a card seat and a card slot, the card seat is slidably connected to the support guide rail, and a protruding card body is provided on the card seat, the card slot is opened at the bottom of the transfer box, and the protruding card body is docked with the card slot.

[0015] As a further solution of the present invention: the linkage pushing mechanism includes a linkage convex plate and a convex push rod, the linkage convex plate is connected to one side of the transfer box body, the convex push rod is connected to one side of the end of the connecting rotating plate, and the convex push rod cooperates with the linkage convex plate.

[0017] As a further solution of the present invention: a key switch electrically connected to the corresponding electric telescopic rod is provided on one side of each driving slider, and a squeezing ball matched with the key switch is connected to the outer wall of the annular electric guide rail.

[0018] Beneficial effects of the present invention:

[0019] 1. After the glass tubes of the present invention pass through the inspection points along the circular electric guide rail for inspection and grading, they can be raised to the corresponding height according to the grade by means of the provided electric telescopic rod. That is, glass tubes of different grades are located at different heights. When passing the position of the connecting turntable, since hook plates at different heights are distributed on the connecting turntable, the connecting turntable only needs to rotate to hook the glass tubes at the corresponding height by means of the hook plates at the corresponding positions, without the need for excessive movement switching control. The glass tubes can then be rotated and transported to the layered spaces at the corresponding height positions of the transfer box, automatically completing the graded transportation and storage.

[0020] 2. The multiple layered plates distributed on the transfer box of the present invention correspond to the hook plates distributed on the connecting turn plate. When the connecting turn plate rotates to the position of the transfer box, the hook plates are docked with the layered plates one by one, facilitating the conduction of the glass tubes. When the connecting turn plate continues to rotate to the starting position, the transfer box can slide laterally along the support guide rail under the squeezing and pushing action of the connecting turn plate, avoiding interference with the rotation of the connecting turn plate to the starting position. In this way, the graded transportation and storage of the glass tubes can be repeatedly and effectively completed. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0031] The following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making any creative efforts shall fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0032] like Figures 1-8 As shown, an intelligent conveying device for processing the cold end of neutral borosilicate glass is shown, comprising a support base 1, a circular electric guide rail 2 is connected to the support base 1, a plurality of driving slide blocks 3 are evenly distributed on the circular electric guide rail 2, an electric telescopic rod 4 is connected to the driving slide block 3, two electric telescopic rods 4 are provided, and the telescopic ends of the two electric telescopic rods 4 are connected with a U-shaped bracket 5, a glass tube 6 is placed between the two U-shaped brackets 5, the driving slide block 3 can move step by step along the circular electric guide rail 2, that is, it moves forward intermittently step by step, so that operations such as loading, detecting, grading and unloading of the glass tube 6 are convenient, and a gear control switch 24 is installed on each electric telescopic rod 4, and the electric telescopic rod 4 can be extended in sections to Different lengths, the gear control switch 24 is used to control the corresponding electric telescopic rod 4 to extend to different lengths. A loading point 21 is provided on one side of the annular electric guide rail 2. The loading point 21 is used to place the glass tubes 6 on the passing U-shaped bracket 5 in sequence, so that the U-shaped bracket 5 can be conveniently transported clockwise along the annular electric guide rail 2 with the glass tubes 6. An intelligent manipulator can be installed at the loading point 21 for loading. A detection point 22 is provided on the other side of the annular electric guide rail 2. The detection point 22 is used to detect and grade the passing glass tubes 6. When the grade of the glass tube 6 is detected, the gear control switch 24 is directly used to control the electric telescopic rod 4 at the current position to extend, driving the glass tube 6 to the corresponding height;

[0033] A stepper motor 7 is provided on the annular electric guide rail 2, and the stepper motor 7 is connected to the support base 1 through a bracket. The stepper motor 7 is located after the detection point 22, that is, the glass tube 6 passes the position of the stepper motor 7 after detection and grading. The main shaft end of the stepper motor 7 is connected to a connecting rotating plate 18. The initial position of the connecting rotating plate 18 is in a vertical position and is below the main shaft end of the stepper motor 7. A proximity sensing switch 17 electrically connected to the stepper motor 7 is installed on the connecting rotating plate 18. There are multiple proximity sensing switches 17. The proximity sensing switch 17 can start the stepper motor 7 when the glass tube 6 approaches, and can also set the speed of the stepper motor 7 according to the speed at which the driving slider 3 runs along the annular electric guide rail 2, to ensure that each time the glass tube 6 moves close to the connecting rotating plate 18, the connecting rotating plate 18 is just Rotate counterclockwise from the vertical position to facilitate the lifting of the glass tube 6. A plurality of hook plates 8 are evenly spaced on the connecting rotating plate 18. Each hook plate 8 corresponds to an extendable length gear of the electric telescopic rod 4, and the hook plates 8 have one more extendable gear than the electric telescopic rod 4. When the glass tube 6 at the corresponding height is moved along the annular electric guide rail 2 to a position close to the connecting rotating plate 18 by the driving slider 3, the proximity sensor switch 17 generates a sense, so that the stepping motor 7 is started. During the starting process of the stepping motor 7, the connecting rotating plate 18 can be driven to rotate counterclockwise for one circle according to the setting. In this way, the hook plate 8 at the corresponding height position can hook up the glass tube 6 at the corresponding height. During the rotation process of the connecting rotating plate 18, the glass tube 6 rolls between two adjacent hook plates 8 and rotates with the connecting rotating plate 18.

[0034] A plurality of anti-slip convex plates 16 are equidistantly distributed on one side of the surface of the hook plate 8, and the anti-slip convex plates 16 are movably connected to the hook plate 8 by a rebound hinge, one end of the anti-slip convex plate 16 is flush with the hook plate 8, and the other end is tilted toward the connecting rotating plate 18, and the side of the connecting end of the anti-slip convex plate 16 close to the connecting rotating plate 18 is connected to the hook plate 8 by a rebound hinge, so that it can be ensured that the anti-slip convex plate 16 can only be rotated and tilted from the original position toward the connecting rotating plate 18, and cannot be rotated from the original position toward the direction away from the connecting rotating plate 18. When the hook plate 8 hooks the glass tube 6, the glass tube 6 can roll along the surface of the hook plate 8 close to the connecting rotating plate 18. Due to the presence of the anti-slip convex plate 16, the glass tube 6 cannot roll along the surface of the hook plate 8 away from the connecting rotating plate 18, so that the glass tube 6 can be prevented from falling off during the hooking process;

[0035] A key switch 25 electrically connected to the retraction control circuit of the corresponding electric telescopic rod 4 is installed on one side of each driving slide 3. A squeezing ball 23 cooperating with the key switch 25 is connected to the outer wall of the annular electric guide rail 2 near the loading point 21. After the glass tube 6 on the driving slide 3 is separated and transported away, the driving slide 3 continues to move along the annular electric guide rail 2. When the driving slide 3 moves to the position of the squeezing ball 23, the squeezing ball 23 and the key switch 25 on the driving slide 3 are squeezed. When the key switch 25 is pressed, the corresponding electric telescopic rod 4 is retracted and reset to facilitate the next loading. The electric telescopic rod 4 can also be manually retracted and reset after moving to the loading point 21, and then loading can be carried out to ensure the effective and repeated operation of the whole.

[0036] One end of the support base 1 is provided with a layered storage box assembly that cooperates with the hook plate 8. The layered storage box assembly includes a transfer box body 9, which is arranged above one end of the support base 1. A soft surface layer material is attached to the inner wall of the transfer box body 9 to protect the entering glass tube 6. The side of the transfer box body 9 close to the connecting rotating plate 18 is an opening. A plurality of layered plates 19 are distributed longitudinally and equidistantly in the transfer box body 9. The layered plates 19 are tilted as a whole, and the end away from the opening is the lower end. The layered plates 19 correspond to the hook plates 8. When the connecting rotating plate 18 rotates counterclockwise to the upper and oblique sides of the opening of the transfer box body 9, the hook plates 8 distributed on the connecting rotating plate 18 are respectively docked with the corresponding layered plates 19. At this time, the glass tube 6 between the two hook plates 8 in the corresponding position can roll along the inclined hook plate 8 to the corresponding layered plate 19, so that the glass tubes 6 of different grades can be stored in layers;

[0037] A sliding mechanism is provided between the transfer box 9 and the support base 1, and a linkage pushing mechanism is provided between the transfer box 9 and the connecting rotating plate 18;

[0038] The sliding mechanism includes a support rail 12, which is horizontally connected to the top of one end of the support base 1 through a rod body. A detachable slide seat that is connected to the transfer box 9 is slidably connected to the support rail 12. The detachable slide seat includes a card seat 14 and a card slot 15. The card seat 14 is slidably connected to the support rail 12, and a protruding card body is provided on the card seat 14. The card slot 15 is opened at the bottom of the transfer box 9, and the protruding card body cooperates with the card slot 15. When the transfer box 9 needs to be removed, the transfer box 9 is directly lifted upward to separate its bottom from the card seat 14; the end of the support rail 12 away from the transfer box 9 is connected to the electric push rod 11, and the end of the support rail 12 close to the electric push rod 11 is connected to the travel switch 13 electrically connected to the electric push rod 11;

[0039] The linkage ejection mechanism includes a linkage convex plate 10 and a convex ejector rod 20. The linkage convex plate 10 is connected to one side of the transfer box 9, and the convex ejector rod 20 is connected to one side of the end of the connecting rotating plate 18, and the convex ejector rod 20 cooperates with the linkage convex plate 10.

[0040] When the connecting rotating plate 18 rotates counterclockwise to the upper and oblique sides of the opening of the transfer box 9, the convex push rod 20 on the connecting rotating plate 18 just contacts the linkage convex plate 10. When the connecting rotating plate 18 continues to rotate counterclockwise, the convex push rod 20 pushes the linkage convex plate 10, and the linkage convex plate 10 drives the transfer box 9 to rotate along the support guide rail 12 in the direction away from the connecting rotating plate 18, so as to avoid the transfer box 9 from obstructing the rotation of the connecting rotating plate 18 and affecting the reset of the connecting rotating plate 18 for the next glass tube 6 to be transported. When the connecting rotating plate 18 rotates out of the position of the transfer box 9, the transfer box 9 just slides to the position of the limit switch 13, and the limit switch 13 generates induction, causing the electric push rod 11 to retract and retract. When the electric push rod 11 is extended, it can push the transfer box 9 to slide back and reset, making it convenient to take over the next glass tube 6. In this way, the glass tube 6 can be transported and stored continuously and repeatedly.

[0041] The working principle of the present invention is as follows: the intelligent manipulator at the loading point 21 is used to sequentially place the glass tubes 6 on the passing U-shaped brackets 5. The glass tubes 6 then rely on the driving slider 3 to gradually move along the annular electric guide rail 2 to the detection point 22. The detection point 22 uses corresponding equipment to detect and grade the passing glass tubes 6. When the grade of the glass tubes 6 is detected, the gear control switch 24 is directly used to control the extension of the electric telescopic rod 4 at the current position, driving the glass tubes 6 to the corresponding height. The glass tubes 6 then continue to move along the annular electric guide rail 2 by relying on the driving slider 3.

[0042] When the glass tube 6 at the corresponding height moves along the annular electric guide rail 2 to a position close to the connecting rotating plate 18 by means of the driving slider 3, the proximity sensor switch 17 generates a sense, which starts the stepper motor 7. During the starting process, the stepper motor 7 can drive the connecting rotating plate 18 to rotate counterclockwise one circle according to the setting. In this way, the hook plate 8 at the corresponding height position can hook the glass tube 6 at the corresponding height. During the rotation process of the connecting rotating plate 18, the glass tube 6 rolls between the two adjacent hook plates 8 and rotates together with the connecting rotating plate 18.

[0043] When the connecting rotating plate 18 rotates counterclockwise to the upper and oblique side of the opening of the transfer box 9, the hook plates 8 distributed on the connecting rotating plate 18 are respectively docked with the corresponding layering plates 19. At this time, the glass tubes 6 between the two hook plates 8 at the corresponding positions can roll along the inclined hook plates 8 to the corresponding layering plates 19, so that the glass tubes 6 of different grades can be stored and transported in layers.

[0044] When the connecting rotating plate 18 rotates counterclockwise to the upper side of the opening of the transfer box 9, the convex push rod 20 on the connecting rotating plate 18 just contacts the linkage convex plate 10. When the connecting rotating plate 18 continues to rotate counterclockwise, the convex push rod 20 pushes the linkage convex plate 10, and the linkage convex plate 10 drives the transfer box 9 to rotate along the support guide rail 12 in the direction away from the connecting rotating plate 18, so as to avoid the transfer box 9 from hindering the rotation of the connecting rotating plate 18 and affecting the reset of the connecting rotating plate 18 to transport the next glass tube 6. When the connecting rotating plate 18 rotates away from the position of the transfer box 9, the transfer box 9 just slides to the position of the limit switch 13. The limit switch 13 generates a sense, causing the electric push rod 11 to retract and retract. When the electric push rod 11 is extended, it can push the transfer box 9 to slide back and reset, making it convenient to receive the next glass tube 6.

[0045] After the glass tubes 6 on the driving slide 3 are separated and transported away, the driving slide 3 continues to move along the annular electric guide rail 2. When the driving slide 3 moves to the position of the squeezing ball 23, the squeezing ball 23 and the key switch 25 on the driving slide 3 are squeezed. When the key switch 25 is pressed, the corresponding electric telescopic rod 4 is retracted and reset to facilitate the next loading. In this way, the glass tubes 6 can be transported and stored in stages continuously and repeatedly.

[0046] After the transfer box 9 is full, the transfer box 9 can be directly separated from the card seat 14.

[0047] The above is a detailed description of an embodiment of the present invention. However, the content described is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and should not be considered to limit the scope of the present invention. All equivalent changes and improvements made within the scope of the present invention should still fall within the scope of the patent coverage of the present invention.
