[0071] S500: Adjust the working state of the unloading mechanism 300 according to the characteristic parameters of the processed screen to transfer the processed screen.

[0072] To facilitate understanding and explanation, the above method steps will be further explained below using an automated irregular shape cutting system as an example.

[0073] Please see Figure 2The aforementioned irregular shape cutting system based on an automated system includes a feeding mechanism 100, a cutting mechanism 200, a discharging mechanism 300, and a central processing unit 400 connected to each of the three.

[0074] Please refer to Figure 3 The feeding mechanism 100 includes a feeding tray 110, a feeding limiting post 120, a feeding suction nozzle 130, and a feeding alignment camera 140, which are used to pick up the original screen to be cut and place it on the cutting station according to preset requirements.

[0075] Please see Figure 4 The cutting mechanism 200 includes a cutting device 210, a cutting alignment camera 220, and a cutting platform 230, which are used to cut the original screen to be cut to produce a processed screen.

[0076] Please see Figure 5 The unloading mechanism 300 includes an unloading tray 310, an unloading limit post 320, and an unloading suction unit 330, which are used to pick up the processed screen and transport it to the unloading storage position.

[0077] The central processing unit 400 includes a processor and a memory. The memory stores an executable program that can be run by the processor. When the processor executes the executable program, it controls the irregular cutting device 210 of the automated system to perform the steps of S100-S500 described above.

[0078] The central processing unit 400 is connected to the loading mechanism 100, cutting mechanism 200, and unloading mechanism 300 via a communication bus. Those skilled in the art will understand that the above circuit structure does not constitute a limitation of the present invention; the present invention may include more or fewer components than described above, or combine certain components, or have different component arrangements.

[0079] The aforementioned communication bus is used to realize the connection and communication between the other electrical components; the irregular cutting device 210 of the automation system may also include a user interface, which may include at least one of a USB interface and an I2S interface.

[0080] The user interface is mainly used to connect to other devices to obtain user control commands, etc. These devices may include control panels, storage devices that store control information, etc. The control panel can be a remote control device. Specifically, the control panel may include a touch panel, control buttons, or a joystick.

[0081] The processor can be a 32-bit Cortex-M3 core microcontroller STM32F103R8, which has the ability to fetch and calculate data, perform comparative analysis, and synthesize control signals.

[0082] The memory can be high-speed RAM or stable memory; furthermore, the memory can be a storage device independent of the processor.

[0083] Based on the above, please refer to Figures 1 to 5 Specifically, in this embodiment, the central processing unit 400 can obtain and parse the feature parameters of the original screen to be cut through the user interface. Then, the central processing unit 400 controls the loading tray 110, loading limit post 120, loading suction nozzle 130, and loading alignment camera 140 in the loading mechanism 100 to adjust the working state of the loading mechanism 100, completing the picking and transfer of the original screen to be cut. After the original screen to be cut is transported to the preset workstation (cutting processing workstation), the central processing unit 400 controls the cutting mechanism 200 to process the original screen to be cut using a preset processing method, forming a processed screen. Afterwards, the central processing unit 400 obtains the feature parameters of the processed screen and controls the unloading tray 310, unloading limit post 320, and unloading suction unit 330 in the unloading mechanism 300 to operate according to these feature parameters to transfer the processed screen, thereby completing the entire automated process of loading, cutting, and unloading the irregularly shaped screen.

[0084] The characteristic parameters of the original screen to be cut mainly include data such as screen size and thickness. The preset processing method includes at least cutting processing, which can be based on a cutting wheel or laser.

[0085] In addition, the aforementioned feeding mechanism 100, cutting mechanism 200, and unloading mechanism 300 all include a displacement mechanism with three-axis (X-axis, Y-axis, Z-axis) motion directions that can be used to adjust the position of their constituent units as needed. Since this part of the mechanism is a commonly used mechanism in screen glass processing production lines and is common knowledge, it will not be described in detail here.

[0086] Please see Figure 3 The feeding mechanism 100 includes a feeding tray 110, a feeding limiting post 120, a feeding suction nozzle 130, and a feeding alignment camera 140; (Please refer to...) Figure 6 The steps for adjusting the working state of the feeding mechanism 100 according to the characteristic parameters of the original screen to be cut include:

[0087] S210: Adjust the distance between the feeding limit pins 120 according to the size of the feeding tray 110;

[0088] S220: Adjust the distance between the feeding nozzles 130 according to the characteristic parameters of the original screen to be cut;

[0089] S230: Adjust the distance between the nozzles transferred by the feeding tray 110 as needed;

[0090] S240: Adjust the working status of the loading alignment camera 140 according to the feature parameters of the original screen to be cut.

[0091] Specifically, in this embodiment, after acquiring and parsing the feature parameters of the original screen to be cut, the central processing unit 400 controls the loading limiting post 120 in the loading mechanism 100 to move with the assistance of the displacement mechanism to adapt to the size of the loading tray 110. Next, the central processing unit 400 adjusts the distance between the loading nozzles 130 based on the size of the original screen to be cut, so that the loading nozzles 130 can stably adsorb, fix, and transport the original screen to be cut. Afterwards, the central processing unit 400 controls the loading alignment camera 140 in the loading mechanism 100 to move with the assistance of the displacement mechanism to adapt to the size and position of the original screen to be cut, and performs recognition processing on the screen.

[0092] Among them, the two locations where the feeding tray 110 is transferred include:

[0093] The feeding position of the feeding tray 110 on the Z axis: the position where the feeding tray 110 is sent by the feed inlet conveyor belt;

[0094] Waiting position of the feeding tray 110Z axis: The position where the feeding Z axis suction nozzle grabs the product.

[0095] Please see Figure 7 The steps for adjusting the working state of the loading alignment camera 140 based on the feature parameters of the original screen to be cut include:

[0096] S241: Adjust the distance between the loading alignment cameras 140 according to the feature parameters of the original screen to be cut;

[0097] S242: Perform visual alignment processing on the original screen to be cut according to the preset standard;

[0098] The visual alignment process includes visual calibration, target photography, object photography, and alignment calculation.

[0099] Please see Figure 4 The cutting mechanism 200 includes a cutting alignment camera 220 and a cutting platform 230; where, please refer to Figure 8 The steps for adjusting the cutting mechanism 200 include:

[0100] S310: Detect the relative position between the cutting alignment camera 220 in the cutting mechanism 200 and the cutting platform 230 in the cutting mechanism 200;

[0101] S320: Determine whether the relative position condition meets the preset position condition;

[0102] S330: Adjust the position of the cutting alignment camera 220 according to the judgment result.

[0103] Specifically, in this embodiment, after the original screen to be cut is transported to the glass cutting station by the feeding mechanism 100, the central processing unit 400 first controls the component units in the cutting mechanism 200 to check the condition of the original screen to be cut, and adjusts its position with the assistance of the displacement mechanism for relevant detection and subsequent processing. Specifically, the central processing unit 400 obtains the relative position between the cutting alignment camera 220 and the cutting platform 230 in the cutting mechanism 200 in the current state, and determines whether the relative position meets the preset position conditions, such as whether it is suitable for the cutting alignment camera 220 to perform detection. If it is not suitable, the central processing unit 400 controls the cutting alignment camera 220 to change its position with the assistance of the displacement mechanism to achieve a suitable working position.

[0104] The aforementioned preset processing method may include covering some of the pores on the surface of the cutting platform 230 with Teflon. This method can better facilitate the identification of the cutting alignment camera 220 and the cutting of the cutting structure.

[0105] Please see Figure 9 The steps of adjusting the cutting mechanism 200 and processing the original screen to be cut, which was transferred from the feeding mechanism 100, according to the characteristic parameters of the original screen to be cut, using a preset processing method to form the processed screen include:

[0106] S340: Obtain cutting parameters through a storage unit or an external unit;

[0107] S350: Generates a cutting path based on the cutting parameters and the feature parameters of the original screen to be cut;

[0108] S360: Adjust the cutting mechanism 200 to work along the cutting path to process the original screen to be cut, forming the processed screen.

[0109] Specifically, in the embodiment, after determining that the original screen to be cut is fixed on the cutting platform 230 and in a suitable position, the central processing unit 400 plans a virtual path based on the original screen to be cut, according to the cutting parameters, the characteristic parameters of the original screen to be cut, and the data detected by the cutting alignment camera 220. Then, it controls the cutting device 210 to contact the original screen to be cut with the assistance of the displacement mechanism, and cuts the screen on the screen according to the generated virtual path to finally form a processed screen that meets the user's needs.

[0110] The cutting parameters mentioned above can come from a cutting file stored in a storage unit or an external unit. This cutting file includes product parameters and cutting parameters.

[0111] Regarding the product parameters mentioned above: Users can click on "Product Parameters" on the operating terminal to bring up the product parameter window. The product parameters allow users to set the parameters for the current production model and compensate for material loading deviations. The product parameters will switch according to the selected file, corresponding to each different product.

[0112] To facilitate understanding and explanation, the above cutting process will be further illustrated with additional examples below.

[0113] The specific steps are as follows:

[0114] Adjust the distance between the camera and the cutting platform 230 to ensure clear imaging;

[0115] Depending on the product being cut, some pores on the surface of the cutting machine platform are covered with Teflon.

[0116] Adjust the height of the cutting Z-axis limit in the displacement mechanism according to the requirements of the cutting platform 230;

[0117] Adjust the position of the Y-axis sensor and the corresponding limit position in the displacement mechanism according to the operational needs;

[0118] Adjust the position of the flipping Z-axis cylinder in the displacement mechanism as needed.

[0119] The aforementioned displacement mechanism, cylinder, and Y-axis sensor are common mechanisms and functional components in screen glass production lines. Their specific structures and functions will not be elaborated here.

[0120] Please see Figure 5 The feeding mechanism 300 includes a feeding tray 310, a feeding limiting post 320, and a feeding suction unit 330; (Please refer to...) Figure 10 The steps for adjusting the working state of the unloading mechanism 300 according to the characteristic parameters of the processed screen include:

[0121] S510: Adjust the distance between the feeding limit pins 320 according to the size of the feeding tray 310;

[0122] S520: Adjust the distance between the unloading and picking units 330 according to the size of the screen after processing;

[0123] S530: Adjust the distance between the nozzles of the feed tray 310 as needed.

[0124] Specifically, in this embodiment, after the cutting mechanism 200 completes the cutting of the original screen to be cut to form the processed screen,

[0125] The central processing unit 400 controls the unloading limit post 320 in the unloading mechanism 300 to move with the assistance of the displacement mechanism to adapt to the size of the unloading tray 310. Then, the central processing unit 400 controls and adjusts the distance between the unloading and suction units 330 based on the size of the processed screen, so that the unloading and suction units 330 can more stably adsorb, fix and transport the processed screen.

[0126] Among them, the two locations where the feeding tray 310 is transferred include:

[0127] The discharge position of the feeding tray 310 on the Z-axis: The feeding mechanism 300 moves the feeding tray 310 away from the starting position of the conveyor belt;

[0128] Waiting position of the feeding tray 310 on the Z-axis: The position where the feeding mechanism 300 transfers the empty feeding tray 310 to.

[0129] The aforementioned feeding and suction unit 330 includes a feeding nozzle and a feeding suction cup; wherein, please refer to Figure 11 Before the step of adjusting the distance between the feeding and suction units 330 according to the size of the processed screen, the method further includes step S540: selecting and swapping the feeding nozzle and the feeding suction cup according to the different sizes of the processed screen.

[0130] Because the suction power of the nozzle and the suction cup differs, the central processing unit 400 determines whether to use the nozzle or the suction cup to transport the processed screen based on the size of the screen after processing. If the size of the processed screen exceeds a preset threshold, the unloading suction cup is selected; if the size of the processed screen is below the preset threshold, the unloading nozzle is selected, thus automatically adapting to different situations.

[0131] Furthermore, under the control of the central processing unit 400, the aforementioned feeding mechanism 100 and the conveyor belt in the unloading structure perform the following actions during operation:

[0132] Feeding and conveying forward rotation start: Obtain user instructions to make the feeding mechanism 100 rotate forward to transport the extraction tray via the conveyor belt.

[0133] Reverse start of feeding and conveying: Obtain user instructions to cause the feeding mechanism 100 to reverse the operation of the conveyor belt that puts the extraction tray into the tray, and then transport the extraction tray.

[0134] Material feeding and conveying forward rotation start: Obtain user instructions to make the conveyor belt of the feeding mechanism 300 that delivers the extraction tray rotate forward to transport the extraction tray.

[0135] Material feeding and conveying reverse start: Obtain user instructions to cause the conveyor belt of the feeding mechanism 300 that delivers the extraction tray to reverse and transport the extraction tray.

[0136] The present invention also proposes an irregular shape cutting device based on an automated system, which includes:

[0137] First parameter acquisition unit; used to acquire the feature parameters of the original screen to be cut.

[0138] A feeding control unit is used to adjust the working state of the feeding mechanism according to the characteristic parameters of the original screen to be cut, so as to transfer the original screen to be cut.

[0139] The cutting control unit is used to adjust the cutting mechanism and process the original screen to be cut, which is transferred from the feeding mechanism, according to the characteristic parameters of the original screen to be cut, in a preset processing method to form a processed screen.

[0140] The second parameter acquisition unit is used to acquire the feature parameters of the processed screen.

[0141] The unloading control unit is used to adjust the working state of the unloading mechanism according to the characteristic parameters of the processed screen in order to transfer the processed screen.

[0142] The aforementioned irregular-shaped cutting control device based on the automated system executes the steps of the aforementioned irregular-shaped cutting control method of the automated system during operation.
