TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of electronic glass manufacturing, in particular to a full-automatic edge cleaning device for electronic glass. BACKGROUND
[0002] In the prior art, with the rapid development of the country, the requirements for the quality of glass in the consumer and industrial fields are also increasingly high. High-quality glass not only needs high-standard hot-end technology to ensure, but also needs a cold-end stable conveying system to improve the production rate of the final product. Due to the production process characteristics of the glass raw sheet, during the glass forming process, the edge part of the glass will produce 50 to 100 millimeters of unusable part, so the edge of the glass needs to be cleaned before the glass product is cut. The edge cleaning device is used to process the useless part of the glass.
[0003] However, due to the particularly thin thickness of the electronic glass, when the glass is conveyed on the edge cleaning device, the area to be removed of the glass raw sheet may fall down due to its own weight, which will greatly cause the defective glass with missing corners, thereby resulting in low yield of the production line and low economic benefits. SUMMARY

[0011] In order to coordinate the conveying of the glass plate, the connecting piece is provided with a protective plate which switches between the horizontal state and the vertical state along with the edge expanding belt, when the protective plate is in the horizontal state, the upper surface of the protective plate is flush with the upper surface of the edge expanding belt.
[0012] In order to further ensure the smooth conveying of the glass, the upper surface of the protective plate is inclined to the direction opposite to the area where the edge expanding belt is located, and the inclined side edge of the protective plate is bent to form a folded edge.

[0022] The preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the preferred embodiments described herein are for illustration and explanation only and are not intended to limit the present invention.
[0023] Example 1.
[0024] like Figures 1-4 As shown, the fully automatic edge-cleaning device for electronic glass described in this embodiment includes:
[0025] The edge cleaning device body 1 has a conveyor roller 2 for transporting the glass to be cleaned;
[0026] The edge-extending belt 3 is disposed on both sides of the conveyor roller 2 to support the edge waste material suspended on both sides of the glass to be cleaned; the first motor 4 is used to drive the edge-extending belt 3, and the rotation speed of the servo motor is consistent with the main driving speed and direction of the conveyor roller 2.
[0027] Linkage mechanism 5 is used to drive the edge-extending belt 3 to switch between horizontal and vertical states. During operation, the electronic glass sheet to be edge-cleaned is conveyed by the conveyor roller 2 of the edge-cleaning device body 1, and assisted by the edge-extending belt 3 located on both sides of the conveyor roller 2. At this time, the edge-extending belt 3 supports the edge waste suspended on both sides of the glass sheet. In this embodiment, the first motor 4 is a servo motor for precise speed control, ensuring that the speed of the edge-extending belt 3 is consistent with the speed of the conveyor roller 2, avoiding relative motion that could damage the glass. When the glass sheet moves through the edge-cleaning area and completes the edge cutting, the linkage mechanism 5 will quickly drive the edge-extending belt 3 to switch to the vertical state, ensuring that the edge-cleaned glass can fall smoothly and allowing subsequent glass sheets to enter the edge-cleaning area for the next processing step. The above structural design ensures stable transport of electronic glass on the edge cleaning device, effectively preventing edge breakage caused by glass vibration and displacement, and reducing the defect rate. At the same time, the rapid switching of the edge-extending belt 3 ensures the continuous and smooth operation of the edge cleaning process. Therefore, this technical solution not only improves the automation, quality and efficiency of edge cleaning, but also reduces glass damage and scrap, lowers production costs, and has significant economic value for electronic glass manufacturing enterprises.
[0028] In some embodiments, such as Figure 3 andFigure 4 As shown, the connecting rod mechanism 5 includes a mounting bracket 51, a connecting piece 52, a first connecting rod 53, a second connecting rod 54, and a second motor 55. The mounting bracket 51 is mounted on both sides of the conveying roller 2, and the mounting bracket 51 is provided with a driving shaft 56 and a driven shaft 57 that can rotate relative to the mounting bracket 51. The axes of the driving shaft 56 and the driven shaft 57 are consistent with the conveying direction of the conveying roller 2. One end of the connecting piece 52 is hinged to the driven shaft 57, and the other end is fixedly connected to the edge expanding belt 3. One end of the first connecting rod 53 is hinged to the middle of the connecting piece 52, and the other end is hinged to the second connecting rod 54. The opposite end of the second connecting rod 54 is hinged to the driving shaft 56. The mounting bracket 51 is provided with the second motor 55 for driving the driving shaft 56 to rotate. In operation, when the glass plate on the conveying roller 2 enters the area that needs to be edge cleaned, the second motor 55 is started to drive the driving shaft 56 to rotate. The driving shaft 56 drives the first connecting rod 53 to swing through the second connecting rod 54. The first connecting rod 53 drives the connecting piece 52 to swing at the hinged position of the connecting piece 52 and the driven shaft 57, thereby driving the edge expanding belt 3 to quickly switch between the horizontal and vertical states. When the edge expanding belt 3 is horizontal, it supports the overhanging edge of the glass plate to ensure stability during edge cleaning. After edge cleaning is completed, the edge expanding belt 3 is switched to the vertical state to ensure that the glass waste edge can be smoothly dropped and the subsequent glass conveying is not affected. Through this structural design, the edge expanding belt 3 is quickly and smoothly switched between the horizontal and vertical states, and the structure is simple. The connecting rod mechanism 5 can be modified and upgraded based on the existing glass edge cleaning mechanism. Only the mounting bracket needs to be installed on both sides of the existing edge cleaning machine conveying roller and the transmission mechanism needs to be added. The modification is relatively simple and the cost is low. A new set of equipment does not need to be developed, which reduces the application threshold. In this embodiment, in order to ensure the accuracy of the state switching of the edge expanding belt 3, the second motor 55 is an AC speed reduction motor for providing large torque.
[0029] In some embodiments, as shown in Figure 2 and Figure 4 The connecting piece 52 is provided with a protective plate 6 that switches with the edge expanding belt 3 between the horizontal state and the vertical state. When the protective plate 6 is in the horizontal state, the upper surface of the protective plate 6 is flush with the upper surface of the edge expanding belt 3. The use of the protective plate 6 provides an additional support surface to support the edge waste of the glass plate together with the edge expanding belt 3, which helps to maintain the stability of the glass during edge cleaning and prevents the edge waste from breaking or falling during conveying. After edge cleaning is completed, the protective plate 6 is vertically erected with the edge expanding belt 3 to ensure that the glass waste edge falls down and prepares for the next process.
[0030] In some embodiments, as shown in Figure 2 and Figure 4As shown, the upper surface of the protective plate 6 is arranged to be inclined in the opposite direction of the area where the edge expanding belt 3 is located, and the inclined side edge of the protective plate 6 is bent to form a bent edge 61. The inclined arrangement of the protective plate 6 and the design of the bent edge 61 make the cut-off waste not stay on the protective plate 6, but naturally slide or roll to the inclined side, i.e. the bent edge 61, to avoid the waste from scattering on the edge cleaning device body 1, thereby preventing interference with the normal glass conveying. Meanwhile, when the protective plate 6 is switched to the vertical state, the waste located at the bent edge 61 will be guided by the protective plate 6 to guide the cut-off waste to a specific collection area. This helps to uniformly and centrally collect and process the waste, facilitating the subsequent waste processing process.
[0031] In some embodiments, in order to ensure the efficiency of glass conveying, the switching time of the connecting rod mechanism 5 to drive the edge expanding belt 3 between the horizontal state and the vertical state is within two seconds. In this way, there is no need to wait for too long during the edge cleaning process, and the glass plate can be processed in the next step faster, thereby improving the production efficiency.
[0032] The electronic glass full-automatic edge cleaning device provided by the embodiment solves the problems of poor stability and easy breakage of waste edges of electronic glass during the edge cleaning process, enables the electronic glass to be conveyed accurately, efficiently and automatically on the edge cleaning device, ensures the edge cleaning quality, and reduces the defective rate.
