Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of transparent tile processing technology, and specifically discloses an edge trimming device for transparent tile processing. Background Technology

[0002] Transparent roofing sheets, also known as skylights, are made from plastic granules. These granules are melted and extruded using an extruder, then shaped by rollers, and finally cut to length using a cutting device. During the manufacturing process, the cutting of the shaped sheets is mostly done using a high-speed rotating cutting blade, resulting in numerous burrs on the cut surfaces of each sheet. Furthermore, the lengths of the cut sheets are not perfectly uniform, typically exhibiting a length error of about 5mm-20mm. This causes misalignment during stacking, requiring manual trimming of the end faces.

[0003] Traditionally, the trimming of the ends of transparent roof tiles still relies on manual hand-held grinders, processing each tile individually. After the tiles are cut by the cutting equipment, workers visually inspect the cut surfaces for burrs before using a hand-held grinder to smooth them. After finishing, the tiles are manually stacked onto wooden pallets, and finally, a forklift transports them to the warehouse. This traditional method of trimming the ends of transparent roof tiles is limited by equipment limitations. Firstly, it requires manual processing, resulting in high labor intensity and low efficiency. Secondly, it cannot guarantee that the lengths of multiple tiles stacked after trimming will be consistent, leading to misalignment at the ends of subsequent stacks and hindering forklift handling during warehousing. Therefore, this application proposes an end-edge trimming device for transparent roof tile processing that effectively solves the above-mentioned technical problems. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The present invention aims to provide an edge trimming device for processing transparent tiles, so as to solve the shortcomings of the existing manual hand-held polishing machine for polishing transparent tiles one by one.

[0005] This invention is achieved through the following technical solution:

[0006] An edge trimming device for processing transparent tiles includes a tile receiving unit and a tile stacking trimming unit arranged side by side, and a tile transfer unit is arranged horizontally above the tile receiving unit and the tile stacking trimming unit.

[0007] The tile stacking and trimming unit includes a base plate and a rectangular frame fixed above the base plate. Two parallel slide rails are fixed to the upper end of the rectangular frame. Slide seats are slidably provided at both ends of the two slide rails. A sanding belt seat is fixed on each slide seat. A sanding belt grinding component is provided on the sanding belt seat. A vertical shaft is provided at the center of the rectangular frame. A rotating bar is fixedly connected to the vertical shaft. Movable rods are rotatably connected to both ends of the rotating bar. The ends of the two movable rods are respectively connected to the two slide seats. A second telescopic member connected to one of the slide seats is fixed on the rectangular frame. A tile stacking rack plate located above the rectangular frame is fixed between the two sanding belt seats.

[0008] In the process of using the transparent tile processing end trimming device disclosed in this invention, the tile receiving unit receives the cut tiles one by one, and then the tile transfer unit adsorbs, lifts, transfers and unloads the transparent tiles on the tile receiving unit, thereby placing the tiles one by one on the tile stacking rack of the tile stacking trimming unit, so that multiple tiles are stacked neatly.

[0009] Once the number of transparent tiles stacked on the tile stacking and trimming unit reaches the set quantity, the trimming program is initiated. During the trimming process, the second telescopic component is activated first, causing one of the slides to move towards the tile. Then, under the action of the rotating bar, movable rod, and other structures, the other slide also moves synchronously towards the tile. Next, the sanding belt components at both ends align and center the stacked tiles along their length, clamping the entire assembly. Subsequently, the sanding belt components are activated, causing the sanding belt to run at high speed, and then the two cut ends of the tile are sanded and deburred. During the sanding and deburring process, the two sanding belt components continue to move slowly closer together via the second telescopic component, using the sanding belt components to trim the length of the cut ends of the stacked tiles, ensuring that the entire group of tiles is trimmed to a uniform length. Finally, the entire group of tiles is lifted from the tile stacking rack and then removed by a forklift.

[0010] As a specific configuration of the above scheme, the sanding belt assembly includes sanding belt rollers rotatably connected to both ends of the sanding belt seat, and a sanding motor is connected to the end of one of the sanding belt rollers, and a sanding belt is provided between the two sanding belt rollers.

[0011] As a specific arrangement of the above scheme, a row of support rollers is rotatably connected in the sanding belt seat located in the inner ring of the sanding belt, and the row of support rollers is arranged to abut against the inner end of the working surface of the sanding belt.

[0012] As a specific feature of the above scheme, both ends of the tile stacking rack are provided with strip-shaped openings, and a third telescopic member is fixed directly below the strip-shaped openings. The upper end of the third telescopic member is connected to a top plate extending out of the strip-shaped openings.

[0013] As a further feature of the above solution, a debris receiving groove is provided directly below the gap between the end of the tile stacking rack and the sanding belt assembly.

[0014] As a further provision of the above scheme, the telescopic end of the second telescopic member is connected to a sleeve, the inner end of the sleeve is fixed with a force sensor, the force sensor is connected to a connecting rod extending out of the sleeve via a spring, and the outer end of the connecting rod is connected to a slide block.

[0015] The present invention further improves the connection between the second telescopic component and the slide. Through the design of force sensor, spring and connecting rod, the clamping force of the sanding belt grinding component on the end of the entire set of tiles can be monitored in real time, thereby avoiding excessive clamping force that causes tile deformation or excessive grinding, and avoiding insufficient force that cannot achieve effective grinding and finishing, thus improving the finishing effect on the end of the tile.

[0016] As a specific configuration of the above scheme, the tile receiving unit includes a roller seat and support legs for supporting the roller seat, and a row of idler rollers is rotatably connected in the roller seat.

[0017] As a further provision of the above scheme, the roller body of the idler is provided with a positioning frustum adapted to the cross-sectional shape of the transparent tile, and the upper surface of the tile stacking rack is provided with a boss ridge adapted to the cross-sectional shape of the transparent tile.

[0018] As a specific configuration of the above scheme, the tile transfer unit includes a T-shaped plate, a support frame, and a movable plate. Each of the three ends of the T-shaped plate is provided with a set of support frames. Both ends of the lower surface of the T-shaped plate are connected to vertical plates. A transmission screw and a guide slide are provided between the two vertical plates. One end of the transmission screw is connected to a screw motor. The movable plate is provided with screw nuts and sliding guide blocks that match the transmission screw and the guide slide, respectively. The movable plate is connected to a suction cup assembly that can be raised and lowered and used to adsorb and fix the tiles through a first telescopic member. Beneficial effects

[0019] The end-edge trimming device for transparent tile processing disclosed in this invention can first grasp, transport, and stack the tiles one by one when processing the cut transparent tiles. Then, the tile stacking trimming unit clamps the entire stacked set of tiles from both ends, thereby centering and aligning the entire set of tiles along its length. After centering and alignment, the cut ends of the entire set of tiles are uniformly ground and deburred using a grinding belt. At the same time, the length of the tiles can be trimmed during the grinding process to ensure that the entire set of tiles is trimmed to a consistent length. The entire device not only realizes the stacking of tiles, but also performs efficient grinding and deburring, as well as trimming along the length, which greatly improves the efficiency of tile end-edge trimming and has excellent performance.

[0020] The present invention further improves the connection between the second telescopic component and the slide. Through the design of force sensor, spring and connecting rod, the clamping force of the sanding belt grinding component on the end of the entire set of tiles can be monitored in real time, thereby avoiding excessive clamping force that causes tile deformation or excessive grinding, and avoiding insufficient force that cannot achieve effective grinding and finishing, thus improving the finishing effect on the end of the tile.

[0032] Example 1

[0033] Example 1 discloses an edge trimming device for processing transparent tiles, see attached figure. Figure 1 and attached Figure 2 The main body of the device includes a tile receiving unit 100, a tile transfer unit 200, and a tile stacking and trimming unit 300. The tile receiving unit 100 and the tile stacking and trimming unit 300 are arranged side by side, and the front end of the tile receiving unit 100 is connected to the discharge end of the cutting device. Then, the tile transfer unit 200 is arranged across the tile receiving unit 100 and the tile stacking and trimming unit 300 directly above them.

[0034] The specific tile receiving unit 100 includes a roller seat 101. The lower end of the roller seat 101 is provided with several sets of support legs 102. A row of idler rollers 103 arranged at equal intervals are rotatably connected in the roller seat 101. The roller body of the idler rollers 103 is provided with a positioning frustum 104 that matches the cross-sectional shape of the transparent tile, so that the transparent tile can be conveyed into the roller seat 101 along the row of idler rollers 103 under the guiding and positioning action of the positioning frustum 104.

[0035] The specific tile transfer unit 200 includes a T-shaped plate 201 positioned directly above the tile receiving unit 100 and the tile stacking and trimming unit 300. A set of support frames 202 is provided at each of the three ends of the T-shaped plate 201. Then, a downwardly extending vertical plate 203 is welded to each of the left and right ends of the lower surface of the T-shaped plate 201. A parallel transmission screw 204 and a guide slide rod 205 are arranged between the two vertical plates 203, and one end of the transmission screw 204 is connected to a screw motor 206 fixed to the vertical plate 203. A movable plate 2071 is arranged between the two vertical plates 203. A screw nut 207 and a sliding guide block 208 are fixed on the movable plate 2071. The screw nut 207 matches the transmission screw 204, and the sliding guide block 208 matches the guide slide rod 205, so that the movable plate 2071 can move left and right along the direction of the guide slide rod 205 under the drive of the screw motor 206.

[0036] Reference Appendix Figure 3A first cylinder 209 is provided on the upper surface of the movable plate 2071. Of course, the first cylinder 209 can also be replaced by other telescopic components with lifting functions, such as electric telescopic rods, hydraulic rods, or screw jacks.

The suction cups 211 are connected to the vacuum system through air pipes.

[0037] Reference Appendix Figure 4 Appendix Figure 5 and attached Figure 6 The tile stacking and trimming unit 300 includes a base plate 301. A rectangular frame 302 is fixedly connected to the base plate 301 via several columns. Two parallel slide rails 303 are fixed to the upper end of the rectangular frame 302. Slide seats 304 are provided at both ends of the two slide rails 303. A slider 305 matching the slide rail 303 is provided on the lower surface of the slide seat 304. A sanding belt seat 306 is fixedly provided on the upper surface of each slide seat 304. A sanding belt roller 307 is rotatably provided at both ends of the sanding belt seat 306. A sanding belt 308 is provided between the two sanding belt rollers 307. A sanding motor 309 connected to the sanding belt roller 307 is provided at one end of the upper surface of the sanding belt seat 306. In addition, to prevent the working side of the sanding belt 308 from being squeezed and recessed inward, a row of support rollers 310 is rotatably connected in the rectangular frame 302 of the inner ring of the sanding belt 308, and the row of support rollers 310 abuts against the inner end of the working surface of the sanding belt 308.

[0038] A flat plate 311 is fixed between the middle sections of two slide rails 303. A vertical shaft is rotatably connected to the center of the flat plate 311, and a rotating bar 312 is fixedly connected around the vertical shaft. Movable rods 313 are rotatably connected to both ends of the rotating bar 312, and the other ends of the two movable rods 313 are rotatably connected to the front and rear slide blocks 304 respectively. A second cylinder 314 is fixedly installed on the rectangular frames 302 on the left and right sides of the flat plate 311. The second cylinder 314 can also be replaced by other telescopic parts. Connecting rods 315 are provided at the piston rod ends of the two second cylinders 314, and the ends of the two connecting rods 315 are connected to the lower end of the same slide block 304.

[0039] A tile stacking rack 316 is fixedly installed on the rectangular frame 302 located between the front and rear sanding belts 308. The tile stacking rack 316 is designed to be positioned higher than the rotating bar 312, the movable rod 313, and the second cylinder 314 to avoid obstructing their operation. To ensure the tile stacking rack 316 aligns with the tiles, a boss rib 3161 matching the tile cross-section is provided on the upper surface of the tile stacking rack 316. Finally, strip-shaped openings are provided at both the front and rear ends of the tile stacking rack 316. A third cylinder 317 is located directly below each strip-shaped opening. A top plate 318 is connected to the upper end of the third cylinder 317. The top plate 318 is parallel to the strip-shaped openings, and guide sleeve assemblies 319 connected to the base plate 301 are provided at both ends of the lower surface of the top plate 318.

[0040] In the process of using the transparent tile processing end-edge trimming device disclosed in Embodiment 1, the cut tiles are pushed onto the tile receiving unit 100. Then, the first cylinder 209 in the tile transfer unit 200 extends to push the suction cup frame 210 downward, causing multiple suction cups 211 to adsorb and fix the tiles on the roller 103. Subsequently, the first cylinder 209 retracts to lift the tiles upward. Then, the lead screw motor 206 is started, and under the action of the transmission lead screw 204 and the guide slide 205, the tiles are moved to directly above the tile stacking trimming unit 300. Then, the tiles are placed on the tile stacking rack 316 of the tile stacking trimming unit 300.

[0041] Repeat the above steps until the number of tiles on the tile stacking and trimming unit 300 reaches the set value. For example, if 20 transparent tiles are reached, the trimming program is started. At this time, the second cylinder 314 begins to retract, causing the base plate 301 at one end to move towards the center of the rectangular frame 302. Then, under the action of the rotating bar 312 and the movable rod 313, the base plate 301 at the other end also moves towards the center synchronously. At this time, under the clamping action of the two sanding belt seats 306 and the sanding belt 308, the stacked tiles are centered front and back, and the cut surface of the stacked tiles comes into contact with the sanding belt 308.

[0042] Subsequently, two grinding motors 309 are started simultaneously, causing the two grinding belts 308 to run synchronously at high speed. The grinding belts 308 are used to grind and deburr the cut surfaces of the tiles. At the same time, the second cylinder 314 is controlled to slowly retract a small distance, which causes the two grinding belts 308 to slowly move relative to each other. During the movement, the grinding belts 308 trim the end faces of the stacked and aligned tiles to ensure that all tiles are trimmed to the same length and remove burrs from the cut surfaces.

[0043] After the repair is completed, the grinding motor 309 is turned off and the second cylinder 314 is simultaneously extended and reset to release the clamping effect on the repaired tiles. Finally, the third cylinder 317 is started, and the top plates 318 at both ends are used to lift the entire stack of tiles. Then, a forklift is used to transport them away.

[0044] Example 2

[0045] Example 2 discloses an improved design of an edge trimming device for processing transparent tiles, based on the technical solution in Example 1. The similarities between Example 2 and Example 1 will not be described again.

[0046] Reference Appendix Figure 7 and attached Figure 8 A sleeve 320 is provided at the end of the piston rod of the second cylinder 314, and the end of the connecting rod 315 extends into the sleeve 320. A force sensor 321 is fixed at the inner end of the sleeve 320 and electrically connected to the control system of the entire device. Finally, a spring 322 is connected between the force-bearing surface of the force sensor 321 and the end face of the connecting rod 315. The above-mentioned spring 322 and force sensor 321 can monitor in real time the force applied by the abrasive belt 308 to the cut surface of the tile during the finishing process, avoiding excessive force that may cause tile deformation or excessive grinding, and avoiding insufficient force that may not achieve effective grinding and finishing, thereby improving the finishing effect on the end of the tile.

[0047] Reference Appendix Figure 4 In this embodiment 2, a debris receiving groove 323 is provided below the gap between the sanding belt 308 and the end of the tile stacking rack 316. The debris receiving groove 323 is detachably installed on the upper surface of the base plate 301.
