Description

Technical Field

[0001] This disclosure relates to the field of glass production equipment technology, and in particular to a glass substrate breaking machine. Background Technology

[0002] OLED is considered the third generation of display technology after CRT and LCD displays, possessing characteristics such as simple structure, low cost, self-emissiveness, thinness, fast response speed, wide viewing angle, low power consumption, and flexibility. An OLED device consists of a substrate, cathode, anode, hole injection layer, electron injection layer, hole transport layer, electron transport layer, electron blocking layer, hole blocking layer, and light-emitting layer. The substrate is the foundation of the entire device; all functional layers need to be deposited onto the substrate.

[0003] The production process of substrate glass is complex, comprising two main stages: glass forming and post-processing. The post-processing stage is responsible for transforming the glass from a semi-finished product to a finished product, and includes processes such as loading, cutting, edge breaking, grinding, cleaning, and inspection. The edge breaking process involves breaking off the unusable portions of the glass from the four edges after cutting. Existing edge breaking machines can only break off portions within a preset size range.

[0004] However, some semi-finished glass products from the initial forming process may have defects on one side within a certain width range. If this defect exceeds the preset lug size range, the lug breaking machine will be unable to break off and remove it, causing the glass to sag significantly at the breaking point and affecting subsequent glass processing. Currently, semi-finished glass with defects exceeding the preset lug size range must be discarded, resulting in significant raw material waste. Therefore, how to break off defects exceeding the preset lug size range to achieve rational utilization of the defective products and save on raw material costs is a pressing technical problem that needs to be solved.

[0036] Reference Appendix Figure 1 To be continued Figure 8An embodiment of the present invention provides a glass substrate breaking machine, which includes: a conveying mechanism, two first support mechanisms 2, two second support mechanisms 3, and two breaking mechanisms 4; the conveying mechanism includes a conveyor belt 1, the conveying surface 101 of the conveyor belt 1 being used to receive and support semi-finished substrates 7, and the conveyor belt 1 being able to convey the semi-finished substrates 7 along a first direction X; the two first support mechanisms 2 are spaced apart along a second direction Y and the conveyor belt 1 is located between the two first support mechanisms 2, each first support mechanism 2 including: a plurality of first support members spaced apart along the first direction X, the plurality of first support members forming a first support surface overlapping the conveying surface 101; the two second support mechanisms 3 are spaced apart along the second direction Y. The conveyor belt 1 is located between two second support mechanisms 3 with Y-intervals. Each second support mechanism 3 includes: a plurality of second support members spaced apart along the first direction X, which form a second support surface that coincides with the conveyor surface 101; two breaking mechanisms 4 are located on the side of the two first support mechanisms 2 near the conveyor belt 1, and each breaking mechanism 4 includes a first pressure rod 401a, which extends along the first direction X and can reciprocate up and down relative to the conveyor surface 101 in the longitudinal direction above the conveyor surface 101; wherein, the first direction X and the second direction Y are perpendicular to each other and perpendicular to the longitudinal direction, and the distance between the two first support mechanisms 2 is greater than the distance between the two second support mechanisms 3.

[0037] Specifically, the glass substrate breaking machine includes a conveying mechanism, two first support mechanisms 2, two second support mechanisms 3, and two breaking mechanisms 4. The conveying mechanism can be a belt conveyor with a conveyor belt 1, which can be a nylon belt or a leather belt. The conveyor belt 1 extends along a first direction X, and its two ends in the extension direction have a driving end 102 and a driven end 103, respectively. The driving end 102 can be a rotating shaft connected to a drive motor, and the driven end 103 can be a roller rotatably connected to a bearing seat. Under the driving action of the driving end 102, the conveyor belt 1 can convey the semi-finished substrate 7 along the first direction X through its conveying surface 101. The surface of the conveyor belt 1 is uniformly provided with a plurality of ventilation holes 101a. Each ventilation hole 101a can be connected to a compressed air source. When the conveyor belt 1 transports the semi-finished substrate 7, the ventilation hole 101a can generate suction through the compressed air source to adsorb the semi-finished substrate 7, preventing the semi-finished substrate 7 from slipping during transport. When the semi-finished substrate 7 needs to be separated from the conveyor belt 1, the ventilation hole 101a can generate blowing force through the compressed air source to prevent the surface of the semi-finished substrate 7 from sticking to the conveyor surface 101. A first support mechanism 2 and a second support mechanism 3 are respectively provided at both ends of the conveyor belt 1 in the second direction Y. The distance between the two first support mechanisms 2 in the second direction Y is greater than the distance between the two first support mechanisms 3 in the second direction Y. The two second support mechanisms 3 are close to the driven end 103 of the conveyor belt 1 so that the conveyor belt 1 can support the semi-finished substrate 7 while receiving it from the previous process. One end of the two first support mechanisms 2 in the extension direction is respectively connected to the two second support mechanisms 3 so as to receive and support the semi-finished substrate 7 from the two second support mechanisms 3. Two breaking mechanisms 4 are also provided above the conveying surface 101 of the conveying mechanism. The two breaking mechanisms 4 correspond to the two first support mechanisms 2 respectively. Each breaking mechanism 4 is located between its corresponding second support mechanism 3 and the conveying mechanism in the second direction Y. Each breaking mechanism 4 is provided with a first pressure rod 401a extending along the first direction X. The first pressure rod 401a can be connected to the telescopic structure so that it can move longitudinally back and forth above the conveying surface 101.

[0038] According to the above, the glass substrate breaking machine proposed in the embodiments of the present invention can receive and transport the semi-finished substrate 7 produced in the previous process through the conveyor belt 1 of the conveying mechanism. When the semi-finished substrate 7 is transported on the conveying surface 101 of the conveyor belt 1, two second support mechanisms 3 provided on both sides of the conveyor belt 1 can support both sides of the semi-finished substrate 7 and assist the conveyor belt 1 in transporting the semi-finished substrate 7 to below the breaking mechanism 4. The first support mechanisms 2 on both sides of the breaking mechanism 4 can support the ear material 701 on both sides of the semi-finished substrate 7 and the single-sided defect portion exceeding the size range of the ear material 701, preventing the semi-finished substrate 7 from sagging severely on the conveying surface 101 due to excessively large single-sided defects. The breaking mechanism 4, through the first pressure rod 401a above the conveying surface 101, cooperates with the first support mechanism 2 to break the ear material 701 portion of the semi-finished substrate 7. The glass substrate breaking machine provided in this application can break off single-sided defects exceeding the preset size range of the ear material 701, thereby reducing the product defect rate and reducing the raw material cost of production.

[0039] In some embodiments, refer to the appendix Figure 1 To be continued Figure 8 In the embodiment of the present invention, the glass substrate breaking machine includes a base 5, which includes two first mounting frames 501 spaced apart along the second direction Y, a conveying mechanism disposed between the two first mounting frames 501, and two first support mechanisms 2 respectively mounted on the two first mounting frames 501.

[0040] Specifically, to achieve the receiving and auxiliary support of the semi-finished substrate 7 by the two first support mechanisms 2 and the two second support mechanisms 3, the technical solution adopted in this invention includes a base 5 for the glass substrate breaking machine. The base 5 can be a welded pipe structure or a screwed profile structure. Each end of the base 5 in the second direction Y has a first mounting bracket 501. The two first mounting brackets 501 extend along the first direction X. The conveying mechanism is installed on the base 5 via a threaded connection structure and is located between the two first mounting brackets 501. The length of each first mounting bracket 501 in the first direction X matches the length of the conveyor belt 1 of the conveying mechanism. The two first support mechanisms 2 are respectively installed on the two first mounting brackets 501, and the two second support mechanisms 3... Mechanism 3 is installed on the ends of the two first mounting brackets 501 near the driven end 103 of the conveying mechanism. When the semi-finished substrate 7 is conveyed from the previous process to the glass substrate breaking machine, the two second support mechanisms 3 are located on both sides of the conveyor belt 1 to support the semi-finished substrate 7 on the conveying surface 101 and assist the conveyor belt 1 of the conveying mechanism in conveying the semi-finished substrate 7 along the first direction X. During the process of conveying the semi-finished substrate 7 along the first direction X, the two first support mechanisms 2 receive the semi-finished substrate 7 assisted by the two second support mechanisms 3 and support the ear material 701 part of the semi-finished substrate 7 or the single-sided defect part exceeding the size of the ear material 701, so that the two breaking mechanisms 4 can perform breaking operations on the semi-finished substrate 7.

[0041] In some embodiments, refer to the appendix Figure 1 To be continued Figure 8 In a specific implementation of the glass substrate breaking machine provided in the embodiments of the present invention, the base 5 further includes: two second mounting brackets 502, which are respectively connected to two first mounting brackets 501, and the two second mounting brackets 502 are at least partially located above the conveying surface 101. The two second mounting brackets 502 are projected onto the conveying surface 101 to form a first breaking area and a second breaking area; two breaking mechanisms 4 are respectively mounted above the conveying surface 101 through the two second mounting brackets 502; and two first support mechanisms 2 are respectively located in the first breaking area and the second breaking area.

[0042] Specifically, in order to enable the first pressure rod 401a in the two breaking mechanisms 4 to break the semi-finished substrate 7 longitudinally, the technical solution adopted in this invention is that a second mounting frame 502 is installed on each of the two first mounting frames 501 of the base 5. The second mounting frame 502 can be in the form of a gantry frame, a pipe welding structure or a profile screw connection structure. The height of each second mounting frame 502 in the longitudinal direction is higher than the height of the conveying surface 101 in the longitudinal direction. The two breaking mechanisms 4 are respectively installed on the second mounting frames 502 and located above the conveying surface 101. The working range of the two breaking mechanisms 4 is projected onto the conveying surface 101 in the areas of the first breaking area and the second breaking area, respectively. When the ear material 701 on both sides of the semi-finished substrate 7 is conveyed to the first breaking area and the second breaking area by the conveyor, the first pressure rod 401a in the two breaking mechanisms 4 can be raised and lowered longitudinally above the first breaking area and the second breaking area, respectively, to realize the breaking operation of the ear material 701 of the semi-finished substrate 7.

[0043] In some embodiments, refer to the appendix Figure 1 To be continued Figure 8 In the embodiment of the present invention, the glass substrate breaking machine further includes, in a specific implementation, a first pressure rod assembly 401 for each breaking mechanism 4. The first pressure rod assemblies 401 of the two breaking mechanisms 4 are respectively disposed above the first breaking area and the second breaking area. The first pressure rod assembly 401 includes a first cylinder 401b. The cylinder body of the first cylinder 401b is located above the conveying surface 101 and is mounted on the second mounting bracket 502. The push rod of the first cylinder 401b can reciprocate longitudinally above the conveying surface 101. The first pressure rod 401a is connected to the push rod of the first cylinder 401b.

[0044] Specifically, in order to realize the splitting operation of the splitting mechanism 4 on the semi-finished substrate 7, the technical solution adopted in this invention includes a first pressure rod assembly 401, which includes a first cylinder 401b. The cylinder body of the first cylinder 401b is mounted on the second mounting bracket 502. The push rod of the first cylinder 401b extends longitudinally and is located below the cylinder body of the first cylinder 401b. The first cylinder 401b is located above the conveying surface 101, so that the push rod of the first cylinder 401b can reciprocate longitudinally above the conveying surface 101. The first pressure rod 401a is connected to the push rod of the first cylinder 401b. Under the driving action of the first cylinder 401b, the first pressure rod 401a can press the upper surface of the semi-finished substrate 7, and under the downward pressure of the first cylinder 401b, the splitting operation of the semi-finished substrate 7 is realized.

[0045] In some embodiments, refer to the appendix Figure 1 To be continued Figure 8In a specific implementation of the glass substrate breaking machine provided in the embodiments of the present invention, the first pressure rod assembly 401 further includes: a second cylinder 401c and a swing member 401f. The cylinder body of the second cylinder 401c is connected to the push rod of the first cylinder 401b. An arc-shaped guide groove 401g is provided on the swing member 401f. The push rod of the second cylinder 401c is connected to the swing member 401f through the arc-shaped guide groove 401g. The swing member 401f can be driven by the second cylinder 401c to swing relative to the conveying surface 101 along the guiding direction of the arc-shaped guide groove 401g. The first pressure rod 401a is connected to the push rod of the second cylinder 401c through the swing member 401f.

[0046] Specifically, in order to prevent uneven breakage due to excessive pressure when the first pressure bar 401a breaks the semi-finished substrate 7, the technical solution adopted in this invention includes two symmetrically arranged breaking mechanisms 4 installed on each second mounting bracket 502, as shown in the attached figure. Figure 7 and attached Figure 8 As shown, in the first pressure rod assembly 401 of each prying mechanism 4, the cylinder body of the first cylinder 401b is mounted on the second mounting bracket 502. The push rod of the first cylinder 401b is longitudinally arranged and connected to the cylinder body of the second cylinder 401c via a connector 401d. The push rod of the second cylinder 401c extends longitudinally and is located below the cylinder body of the second cylinder 401c. A pressure block 401e is mounted on the push rod of the second cylinder 401c. Each first pressure rod assembly 401 also includes a swing member 401f. The swing member 401f is respectively provided with a U-shaped groove 401H and an arc-shaped guide groove 401g. The swing member 401f is located at the second cylinder body. Below the cylinder body of cylinder 401c, pressure block 401e is movably connected to the U-shaped groove 401H of swing member 401f via first bearing 401i and pin assembly. Arc-shaped guide groove 401g on swing member 401f is movably connected to connector 401d via second bearing 401j, third bearing 401k and pin assembly. When the push rod of second cylinder 401c extends downward, first bearing 401i connected to pressure block 401e slides along U-shaped groove 401H, so that swing member 401f swings relative to connector 401d along the guiding direction of arc-shaped guide groove 401g under the limiting action of second bearing 401j and third bearing 401k. The two ends of the first pressure rod 401a in the extension direction are respectively connected to two oppositely arranged breaking mechanisms 4 through two swinging members 401f. When the first pressure rod 401a is lowered to the breaking position by the first cylinder 401b, under the action of the two second cylinders 401c and the two swinging members 401f, the first pressure rod 401a can swing relative to the semi-finished substrate 7. The force generated by the swing will break the semi-finished substrate 7, so as to avoid the problem of uneven breakage when the ear material 701 is broken directly by downward pressure.

[0047] In some embodiments, refer to the appendix Figure 1 To be continued Figure 8 In a specific implementation of the glass substrate breaking machine provided in the embodiments of the present invention, each breaking mechanism 4 further includes: a second pressure rod assembly 402, the second pressure rod assemblies 402 of the two breaking mechanisms 4 are respectively located below the first breaking area and the second breaking area, and respectively correspond to the first pressure rod assembly 401 of the two breaking mechanisms 4; the second pressure rod assembly 402 includes: a second pressure rod 402a, the second pressure rod 402a extends along the first direction X, and the second pressure rod 402a can reciprocate up and down relative to the conveying surface 101 in the longitudinal direction below the conveying surface 101.

[0048] Specifically, in order to achieve the breaking operation of the first pressure rod 401a assisted by relative force at the bottom of the semi-finished substrate 7, the technical solution adopted in this invention is that in each breaking mechanism 4, a second pressure rod assembly 402 is provided below the first pressure rod assembly 401. The second pressure rod assembly 402 is mounted on the second mounting bracket 502. Each second pressure rod assembly 402 includes a second pressure rod 402a along the first direction X. The second pressure rod 402a is located below the conveying surface 101. The second pressure rod 402a and the first pressure rod 401a are spaced apart by a preset distance along the longitudinal direction and the second direction Y. The drive assembly and transmission assembly can reciprocate vertically relative to the semi-finished substrate 7 below the conveying surface 101.
