Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of glass production equipment technology, and in particular to a glass breaking device and glass production equipment. Background Technology
[0002] The manufacturing processes for ultra-thin electronic glass typically include float glass, overflow glass, rolling glass, and narrow-slit down-drawing glass. In the overflow glass and narrow-slit down-drawing glass processes, the glass sheet moves longitudinally (i.e., in the vertical direction), and it is necessary to cut the glass sheet longitudinally before breaking it.
[0003] Currently, glass plates are broken using robots. When the robots malfunction, manual breaking is required, with workers wearing protective suits. However, manual breaking presents challenges such as high workload, high safety risks, and material blockages caused by delayed operations. Summary of the Invention
[0004] In view of this, embodiments of this application provide a glass breaking device and glass production equipment to solve the problem of high labor intensity caused by manually breaking glass plates.
[0005] An embodiment of the first aspect of this application provides a glass breaking device, including a base, a first clamping structure, a second clamping structure, a breaking member, a first power device, and a second power device. The first clamping structure and the second clamping structure are both disposed on the base. The first power device is disposed on the base and is used to drive the first clamping structure and / or the second clamping structure to move, so that the first clamping structure and the second clamping structure move closer to or further away from each other in a first direction. The breaking member is disposed on the driving end of the second power device, and the second power device is disposed on the base and is used to drive the breaking member to move in the first direction to break a glass plate extending along a second direction, wherein the first direction and the second direction intersect.
[0006] The glass breaking device provided in this application includes a base, a first clamping structure, a second clamping structure, a breaking component, a first power device, and a second power device. The first power device is mounted on the base and is used to drive the first clamping structure and / or the second clamping structure to move, so that the first clamping structure and the second clamping structure move closer to or further away from each other in a first direction. The second power device is mounted on the base and is used to drive the breaking component to move in the first direction to break the glass plate extending in a second direction. In use, the two clamping structures first move closer to each other to clamp the glass plate extending in the second direction, then the breaking component moves in the first direction to break the glass plate, and finally the two clamping structures move further away from each other to release the glass plate, thereby realizing the automatic breaking of the glass plate extending in the second direction, replacing manual breaking operations, solving the problem of high labor intensity caused by manual breaking of glass plates, eliminating the safety hazards of manual breaking operations, and avoiding the problem of material blockage caused by untimely operation.
[0007] In some embodiments, the break-off element is positioned above the first clamping structure or the second clamping structure.
[0008] By adopting the above technical solution, before the glass plate is broken, the two clamping structures clamp the glass plate below the cut, and the breaking component pushes the glass plate above the cut. Since the glass plate is constantly moving downward during the production process, after the breaking component breaks the glass plate from the cut, the glass plate below the cut can be sent to the next process, and the remaining glass plate (i.e. the glass plate above the cut) is pushed to one side by the breaking component, so that the remaining glass plate has room to continue moving downward and avoids the remaining glass plate from bending.
[0009] In some embodiments, the first clamping structure is a first frame structure, the second clamping structure and the first power device are both located within the first frame structure, and the first power device is located between the first clamping structure and the second clamping structure and simultaneously drives the first clamping structure and the second clamping structure to move.
[0010] Since both the second clamping structure and the first power device are located within the first frame structure, the glass breaking device is relatively compact and does not occupy too much space. The first power device simultaneously drives the first clamping structure and the second clamping structure to ensure the synchronicity of the two clamping structures.
[0011] In some embodiments, the first frame structure includes a first clamping portion and a first driving connection portion arranged opposite to each other, the second clamping structure includes a second frame structure, the second frame structure includes a second clamping portion and a second driving connection portion arranged opposite to each other; the first clamping portion and the second clamping portion cooperate to clamp the glass plate, and the two ends of the first power device are respectively connected to the first driving connection portion and the second driving connection portion.
[0012] In some embodiments, the second power device is fixed to the second clamping structure, and the second power device is disposed on the base through the second clamping structure.
[0013] Since the second power device is fixed on the second clamping structure, and the second clamping structure is movably installed on the base, the second power device can move together with the second clamping structure. That is, the breaking component can approach the glass plate during the process of the two clamping structures holding the glass plate. Combined with the second power device driving the breaking component, it is beneficial for the breaking component to quickly break the glass plate.
[0014] In some embodiments, the drive end includes a sliding portion for sliding on the second clamping structure.
[0015] By adopting the above technical solution, the sliding part of the drive end can support the drive end, preventing the drive end from sagging due to gravity and affecting the positional accuracy of the break-off part on the drive end, thus ensuring the quality of the glass plate after it is broken.
[0016] In some embodiments, the first clamping structure includes a first slider, which moves on the base via the first slider; and / or, the second clamping structure includes a second slider, which moves on the base via the second slider.
[0017] By adopting the above technical solution, it is beneficial for the first clamping structure and / or the second clamping structure to move on the base.
[0018] In some embodiments, the length of the break-off piece is a predetermined length, which is greater than or equal to the width of the glass plate.
[0019] By adopting the above technical solution, the glass plate is ensured to be subjected to the force of the breaking component in its width direction, so that the glass plate is subjected to uniform force, which is conducive to breaking the glass plate.
[0020] In some embodiments, multiple first power units are arranged side by side along a third direction, and / or multiple second power units are arranged side by side along a third direction, wherein the third direction is perpendicular to both the first and second directions.
[0021] The third direction is the width direction of the glass plate. Since the width of the glass plate is usually large, by setting multiple first power devices and / or multiple second power devices in the width direction of the glass plate, the uniformity of force when the two clamping structures clamp the glass plate and the breaking device breaks the glass plate is ensured, which further facilitates the breaking of the glass plate.
[0022] The second aspect of this application discloses a glass production apparatus that includes a glass breaking device as described in the first aspect.
[0023] The glass production equipment adopts all the embodiments of the above-mentioned glass breaking device, and therefore has at least all the beneficial effects of the above-mentioned embodiments, which will not be described in detail here.

[0049] The manufacturing processes for ultra-thin electronic glass typically include float glass, overflow glass, rolling glass, and narrow-slit down-drawing glass. In the overflow glass and narrow-slit down-drawing glass processes, the glass sheet moves longitudinally (i.e., in the vertical direction), and it is necessary to cut the glass sheet longitudinally before breaking it.
[0050] Currently, glass plates are broken using robots. When the robots malfunction, manual breaking is required, with workers wearing protective suits. However, manual breaking presents challenges such as high workload, high safety risks, and material blockages caused by delayed operations.
[0051] To address the problem of high labor intensity caused by manually breaking glass plates, the inventors conducted in-depth research and designed a glass breaking device and glass production equipment.
[0052] This glass-breaking device uses two clamping structures to hold a vertically extending glass plate, and then breaks the glass plate through a breaking component, replacing manual breaking and solving the problem of high labor intensity caused by manual glass breaking. The aforementioned glass production equipment, including this glass-breaking device, reduces labor intensity and safety risks, and avoids material blockage caused by untimely operation.
[0053] The first aspect of this application provides a glass breaking device for breaking glass sheets formed in a vertical direction, such as those formed by overflow or narrow-slit pulling methods. Please refer to... Figure 1The glass breaking device 10 includes a base 11, a first clamping structure 12, a second clamping structure 13, a breaking member 14, a first power device 15, and a second power device 16. The first clamping structure 12 and the second clamping structure 13 are both disposed on the base 11. The first power device 15 is disposed on the base 11 and is used to drive the first clamping structure 12 and / or the second clamping structure 13 to move, so that the first clamping structure 12 and the second clamping structure 13 move closer to or further away from each other in the first direction X. The breaking member 14 is disposed on the driving end 17 of the second power device 16. The second power device 16 is disposed on the base 11 and is used to drive the breaking member 14 to move in the first direction X to break the glass plate 20 extending along the second direction Z. The first direction X and the second direction Z intersect.
[0054] Optionally, the first direction X is the left-right direction, and the second direction Z is the up-down direction (that is, the second direction Z can be the vertical direction, or the second direction Z is the direction with a certain angle to the vertical direction).
[0055] The first clamping structure 12 and the second clamping structure 13 are both disposed on the base 11. It can be understood that the first clamping structure 12 and / or the second clamping structure 13 can be supported on the base 11 by means of sliding or rolling elements. Under the drive of the first power device 15, the first clamping structure 12 and / or the second clamping structure 13 can move on the base 11; or the first clamping structure 12 and / or the second clamping structure 13 can be suspended on the base 11, that is, the first clamping structure 12 and the second clamping structure 13 both constitute cantilever structures. Under the drive of the first power device 15, the first clamping structure 12 and / or the second clamping structure 13 can move on the base 11.
[0056] The first power unit 15 is mounted on the base 11 and is used to drive the first clamping structure 12 and / or the second clamping structure 13 to move, so that the two clamping structures move closer or further apart in the first direction X. It can be understood that both the first clamping structure 12 and the second clamping structure 13 can move, the first clamping structure 12 and the second clamping structure 13 can be driven by the same first power unit 15, or the first clamping structure 12 and the second clamping structure 13 can be driven by different first power units 15; or the first clamping structure 12 is fixed and the first power unit 15 only drives the second clamping structure 13 to move; or the second clamping structure 13 is fixed and the first power unit 15 only drives the first clamping structure 12 to move.
[0057] The first power device 15 is not limited in this application, as long as it can drive the first clamping structure 12 and the second clamping structure 13 to move closer or further apart. For example, the first power device 15 can be a cylinder, a hydraulic cylinder, an electric push rod, a crank-slider mechanism, etc.
[0058] The second power device 16 is disposed on the base 11. It can be understood that the second power device 16 can be directly fixed on the base 11; or the second power device 16 can be fixed on the first clamping structure 12 or the second clamping structure 13, so as to be disposed on the base 11 through the first clamping structure 12 or the second clamping structure 13.
[0059] The second power device 16 is not limited in this application, as long as it can drive the movement of the break-off piece 14. For example, the second power device 16 can be a cylinder, a hydraulic cylinder, an electric push rod, a crank-slider mechanism, etc.
[0060] The breaking member 14 is used to break the glass plate 20 extending along the second direction Z. The shape of the breaking member 14 is not limited in this application. For example, the breaking member 14 can be a breaking plate, a breaking roller, a breaking rod, etc.
[0061] The glass breaking device 10 provided in this application embodiment includes a base 11, a first clamping structure 12, a second clamping structure 13, a breaking member 14, a first power device 15, and a second power device 16. The first power device 15 is disposed on the base 11 and is used to drive the first clamping structure 12 and / or the second clamping structure 13 to move, so as to realize that the first clamping structure 12 and the second clamping structure 13 move closer or further away from each other in the first direction X. The second power device 16 is disposed on the base 11 and is used to drive the breaking member 14 to move in the first direction X to break the glass plate 20 extending along the second direction Z. In use, the first clamping structure 12 and the second clamping structure 13 move closer to each other under the drive of the first power device 15 to clamp the glass plate 20 extending along the second direction Z; then, the breaking member 14 moves along the first direction X under the drive of the second power device 16 to break the glass plate 20; finally, the first clamping structure 12 and the second clamping structure 13 move away from each other to release the glass plate 20, thereby realizing the automatic breaking of the glass plate 20 extending along the second direction Z, replacing the manual breaking operation, solving the problem of high labor intensity caused by manual breaking of the glass plate 20, eliminating the safety hazards of manual breaking operation, and avoiding the problem of material blockage caused by untimely operation.
[0062] Please refer to the following at the same time Figure 1 and Figure 3 In some embodiments, the break-off member 14 is positioned above the first clamping structure 12 or the second clamping structure 13.
[0063] Optionally, the breaking member 14 is positioned above the second clamping structure 13. The breaking member 14 cannot be too far from the second clamping structure 13 to avoid breaking the glass plate 20 from other locations; nor can the breaking member 14 be too close to the second clamping structure 13 to avoid pushing against the cut 21 of the glass plate 20. In other embodiments, the breaking member 14 may be positioned above the first clamping structure 12.
[0064] By adopting the above technical solution, before the glass plate 20 is broken, the first clamping structure 12 and the second clamping structure 13 clamp the glass plate 20 below the cut 21, and the breaking member 14 pushes the glass plate 20 above the cut 21. Since the glass plate 20 is constantly moving downward during the production process, after the breaking member 14 breaks the glass plate 20 from the cut 21, the glass plate 20 below the cut 21 can be sent to the next process, and the remaining glass plate 20 (i.e. the glass plate 20 above the cut 21) is pushed to one side by the breaking member 14, so that the remaining glass plate 20 has room to continue moving downward, avoiding the problem of the remaining glass plate 20 bending.
[0065] It is understood that in other embodiments, the break-off member 14 may be located below the first clamping structure 12 or the second clamping structure 13.
[0066] like Figure 2 As shown, in some embodiments, the first clamping structure 12 is a first frame structure, the second clamping structure 13 and the first power device 15 are both located within the first frame structure, and the first power device 15 is located between the first clamping structure 12 and the second clamping structure 13 and simultaneously drives the first clamping structure 12 and the second clamping structure 13 to move.
[0067] The first direction X is the left-right direction, and the third direction Y is the front-back direction. The first frame structure includes a first left frame, a first front frame, a first right frame, and a first rear frame connected end to end. The first left frame forms a first clamping part 121, and the first right frame forms a first driving connection part 122. That is, the first clamping part 121 and the first driving connection part 122 are arranged opposite to each other.
[0068] Optionally, the second clamping structure 13 includes a second frame structure, which includes a second left frame, a second front frame, a second right frame, and a second rear frame connected end to end, with a connecting frame 134 between the second left frame and the second right frame. The second left frame forms a second clamping part 131, and the second right frame forms a second drive connecting part 132, that is, the second clamping part 131 and the second drive connecting part 132 are arranged opposite to each other.
[0069] The first clamping structure 12 and the second clamping structure 13 clamp the glass plate 20 through the first clamping part 121 and the second clamping part 131; the two ends of the first power device 15 are respectively connected to the first drive connection part 122 and the second drive connection part 132.
[0070] The first power unit 15 has two output ends. For example, the first power unit 15 is a double-acting telescopic cylinder to simultaneously drive the first clamping structure 12 and the second clamping structure 13 to move, thereby enabling the two clamping structures to move closer or further apart.
[0071] Since the second clamping structure 13 and the first power device 15 are both located within the first frame structure, the glass breaking device 10 is relatively compact and does not occupy too much space. The first power device 15 simultaneously drives the first clamping structure 12 and the second clamping structure 13 to ensure the synchronization of the two clamping structures, and at the same time helps to reduce the number of first power devices 15.
[0072] It is understood that in other embodiments, the first clamping structure 12 and the second clamping structure 13 can be located on opposite sides of the glass plate 20. In this case, the first clamping structure 12 can be a frame structure or other structures. The first clamping structure 12 and the second clamping structure 13 can share the first power device 15, which is disposed between the first clamping structure 12 and the second clamping structure 13; or the first clamping structure 12 and the second clamping structure 13 can be driven by the first power device 15 respectively.
[0073] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, in some embodiments, the second power device 16 is fixed on the second clamping structure 13, and the second power device 16 is disposed on the base 11 through the second clamping structure 13.
[0074] Specifically, the second power unit 16 is fixed on the connecting frame 134 of the second clamping structure 13.
[0075] Since the second power device 16 is fixed on the second clamping structure 13, and the second clamping structure 13 is movably installed on the base 11, the second power device 16 can move together with the second clamping structure 13. That is, the breaking member 14 can approach the glass plate 20 during the process of the two clamping structures clamping the glass plate 20. Combined with the second power device 16 driving the breaking member 14, it is beneficial for the breaking member 14 to quickly break the glass plate 20.
[0076] It is understood that in other embodiments, when the break-off piece 14 is below the second clamping structure 13, the second power device 16 can be directly fixed on the base 11; when the break-off piece 14 is above the second clamping structure 13, a lifting seat needs to be provided on the base 11, and the second power device 16 is fixed on the lifting seat.
[0077] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, in some embodiments, the drive end 17 includes a sliding portion 171 for sliding on the second clamping structure 13.
[0078] The driving end 17 extends along a third direction Y, and its cross-section is L-shaped. The driving end 17 includes a vertical section and a horizontal section, with the horizontal section forming a sliding part 171. The breaking member 14 is a breaking plate, and a connecting block 18 is provided on the right side of the breaking plate. The breaking member 14 is connected to the driving end 17 through the connecting block 18. Specifically, the right side of the connecting block 18 is connected to the vertical section of the driving end 17, and the lower side of the connecting block 18 is connected to the horizontal section of the driving end 17. In this way, when installing the breaking member 14, the horizontal section of the driving end 17 can ensure the distance between the breaking member 14 and the second clamping structure 13, avoiding the breaking member 14 being too far away or too close to the second clamping structure 13.
[0079] By adopting the above technical solution, the sliding part 171 of the drive end 17 can support the drive end 17, avoid the drive end 17 from sagging due to gravity and affecting the positional accuracy of the break-off piece 14 on the drive end 17, and ensure the quality of the glass plate 20 after it is broken.
[0080] It is understood that in other embodiments, the drive end 17 does not include the sliding part 171, that is, the drive end 17 is arranged in a cantilevered manner.
[0081] like Figure 1 As shown, in some embodiments, the first clamping structure 12 includes a first slider 123, which moves on the base 11; and / or, the second clamping structure 13 includes a second slider 133, which moves on the base 11.
[0082] Optionally, the first sliding member 123 is a first slider, and multiple first sliders, such as two, three, or four, are fixed below the first front frame and the first rear frame; the second sliding member 133 is a second slider, and multiple second sliders, such as two, three, or four, are fixed below the second front frame and the second rear frame. In other embodiments, multiple first pulleys or other sliding members can be provided below the first front frame and the first rear frame, and multiple second pulleys or other sliding members can be provided below the second front frame and the second rear frame.
[0083] Optionally, a lifting block 111 is provided on the base 11, and the first power device 15 is fixed on the lifting block 111 to ensure that the first power device 15 is at the same height as the first clamping structure 12 and the second clamping structure 13, thereby facilitating the movement of the two clamping structures.
[0084] By adopting the above technical solution, it is beneficial for the first clamping structure 12 and the second clamping structure 13 to move on the base 11.
[0085] Please refer to Figure 2 In some embodiments, the length of the break member 14 is a predetermined length, which is greater than or equal to the width of the glass plate 20.
[0086] The set length needs to be determined based on the width of the glass plate 20 to be broken. As long as the set length satisfies that the length of the breaking piece 14 is greater than or equal to the width of the glass plate 20, it is acceptable.
[0087] The length direction of the broken piece 14 and the width direction of the glass plate 20 are both in the third direction Y.
[0088] It should be noted that when the broken piece 14 is a whole, the set length is the length of the broken piece 14 itself; when the broken piece 14 is composed of multiple segments arranged at intervals along the third direction Y, the set length is the length of the broken piece 14 itself plus all the interval distances, that is, the set length is the farthest distance between the first and last segments of the broken piece 14 along the third direction Y.
[0089] By adopting the above technical solution, it is ensured that the glass plate 20 is subjected to the force of the breaking member 14 in its width direction, so that the glass plate 20 is subjected to uniform force, which is conducive to breaking the glass plate 20.
[0090] It is understood that in other embodiments, the length of the break member 14 may be slightly less than the width of the glass plate 20.
[0091] like Figure 2 As shown, in some embodiments, multiple first power units 15 are arranged side by side along a third direction Y, and / or multiple second power units 16 are arranged side by side along a third direction Y, wherein the third direction Y is perpendicular to the first direction X and perpendicular to the second direction Z.
[0092] Optionally, two first power units 15 are arranged side by side along the third direction Y, and two second power units 16 are arranged side by side along the third direction Y.
[0093] The third direction Y is the width direction of the glass plate 20. Since the width of the glass plate 20 is relatively large, by setting multiple first power devices 15 and / or multiple second power devices 16 in the width direction of the glass plate 20, the uniformity of force is ensured when the two clamping structures clamp the glass plate 20 and the breaking piece 14 breaks the glass plate 20, which is more conducive to breaking the glass plate 20.
[0094] It is understood that in other embodiments, one of each of the first power unit 15 and the second power unit 16 may be provided, or three or more of the first power unit 15 and the second power unit 16 may be arranged side by side in a third direction Y.
[0095] In some embodiments, the first power unit 15 is a telescopic cylinder or an electric push rod; and / or the second power unit 16 is a telescopic cylinder or an electric push rod.
[0096] Optionally, both the first power unit 15 and the second power unit 16 are cylinders. Since the first power unit 15 simultaneously drives the first clamping structure 12 and the second clamping structure 13, it can be a double-acting cylinder. The second power unit 16 only drives the breaking member 14; therefore, it can be either a single-acting or double-acting cylinder. In other embodiments, both the first power unit 15 and the second power unit 16 can be hydraulic cylinders or electric push rods.
[0097] By adopting the above technical solution, the telescopic cylinder or electric push rod is a direct-acting mechanism, that is, it directly drives the two clamping structures to move in a straight line and the breaking member 14 to move in a straight line, which is beneficial to drive the two clamping structures to clamp the glass plate 20 and drive the breaking member 14 to break the glass plate 20.
[0098] It is understood that in other embodiments, the first power unit 15 may be a crank-slider mechanism, and / or the second power unit 16 may be a crank-slider mechanism.
[0099] The second aspect of this application discloses a glass production apparatus. The glass production apparatus includes a glass cutting device and a glass breaking device 10 as described in the first aspect. The glass cutting device is positioned above the glass breaking device 10. During production, a slit is first cut using the glass cutting device according to the design dimensions of the glass sheet 20, and then the glass breaking device 10 is used to break the glass sheet 20 from the slit. This glass production apparatus is suitable for glass production processes such as the overflow valve method and the narrow-slit pull-down method.
[0100] After the glass cutting device cuts the vertically extending glass plate 20, if the breaking robot malfunctions and cannot work, the glass breaking device 10 can be used to break the vertically extending glass plate 20, replacing the manual breaking operation. This solves the problem of high labor intensity caused by manually breaking the glass plate 20, eliminates the safety hazards of manual breaking operation, and avoids the problem of material blockage caused by untimely operation.
[0101] The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this application, and are not intended to limit them. Although this application has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some of the technical features. Such modifications or substitutions do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of this application, and should all be included within the protection scope of this application.
