Abstract

This application discloses a conveying device for a glass marking and breaking process, comprising a travel track; a first conveying mechanism and a second conveying mechanism, which are slidably mounted on the travel track; and a transfer mechanism disposed between the first and second conveying mechanisms. The transfer mechanism has at least an extended form and a closed form driven by telescopic movement. The first and second conveying mechanisms can slide along a first direction on the travel track to enter and exit the transfer mechanism in the extended form, and the first and second conveying mechanisms can move up and down along a second direction to enter and exit the transfer mechanism in the closed form. When the first and second conveying mechanisms are in the closed form, they slide along the travel track to a preset position before they can transfer the carrier glass through the transfer structure, ensuring the accurate position of the carrier glass during transport and solving the problem of insufficient positional accuracy of the carrier glass during the edge trimming process.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application discloses the technical field of glass processing, and in particular a conveying device for use in a glass scribing and breaking process. Background Technology

[0002] The current traditional manufacturing process of OLED (Organic Light Emitting Diode) optoelectronic display substrate glass includes a mechanical trimming process for excess material on the OLED optoelectronic display substrate glass. Specifically, lines are first drawn on the glass plate, and then the glass is broken off by a mechanical device according to the drawn lines.

[0003] In existing technologies, the edge trimming process of OLED optoelectronic display substrate glass generally consists of a loading station, a marking station, a breaking station, and a loading station arranged in sequence. The OLED optoelectronic display substrate glass is usually transported to the designated station by a transmission belt or chain drive, so as to enable the OLED optoelectronic display substrate glass to be trimmed in batches.

[0004] However, some shortcomings still exist in the existing technology. For example, when the drive shaft rotates at high speed to drive the drive belt or chain, slippage and misalignment can easily occur. This can cause the OLED optoelectronic display carrier glass to not accurately reach the preset position for edge trimming during the transportation process, resulting in inaccurate marking and breaking positions, which affects the normal operation of the edge trimming process. Therefore, it is urgent to provide a transportation device that can ensure that the transportation position matches the carrier glass for the edge trimming process. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The technical problem to be solved by the conveyor device disclosed in this application for the glass marking and breaking process is to improve the conveyor belt transportation method to a more precise track sliding transportation method, so that the first and second conveying mechanisms can slide to transport the carrier glass via the travel track. A transfer mechanism is set between the first and second conveying mechanisms. The transfer mechanism can be divided into an unfolded form and a closed form. The transfer mechanism in the unfolded form can be used for the first conveying mechanism to enter and the second conveying mechanism to move out, while the transfer mechanism in the closed form can be used for the first conveying mechanism to move out and the second conveying mechanism to enter. The transfer mechanism in the closed form can carry the carrier glass. The key point is that when the first and second conveying mechanisms are in the closed form, they can only transfer the carrier glass through the transfer structure after sliding to a preset position via the travel track. This ensures that the position of the carrier glass is more accurate during transportation and solves the technical problem of the carrier glass bearing position accuracy during the edge trimming process.

[0051] Techniques, methods, and equipment known to those skilled in the art may not be discussed in detail, but where appropriate, they should be considered part of the specification.

[0052] Reference Figures 1 to 6As shown, this application provides a conveying device for glass marking and breaking process, which mainly includes: a travel track 1 and a first conveying mechanism 2 and a second conveying mechanism 3 respectively slidably installed on the travel track 1; it also includes a transfer mechanism 4, which is disposed between the first conveying mechanism 2 and the second conveying mechanism 3, and the transfer mechanism 4 has at least an unfolded form and a closed form by means of telescopic drive.

[0053] The first transport mechanism 2 and the second transport mechanism 3 can slide along the first direction on the travel track 1 to enter and exit the transfer mechanism 4 in the unfolded state, and the first transport mechanism 2 and the second transport mechanism 3 can enter and exit the transfer mechanism 4 in the closed state by rising and falling along the second direction.

[0054] The above structure specifically uses a long, narrow travel track 1 to form a transport path. The first transport mechanism 2 and the second transport mechanism 3 are slidably mounted on the travel track 1 to transport the carrier glass to a designated workstation for edge trimming. In this embodiment, a transfer mechanism 4 is also provided between the first transport mechanism 2 and the second transport mechanism 3 to transfer the carrier glass from the first transport mechanism 2 to the second transport mechanism 3. The transfer mechanism 4 can switch between two different forms, namely an unfolded form and a closed form. When the transfer mechanism 4 is in the unfolded state, it forms a channel for the first transport mechanism 2 and the second transport mechanism 3 to enter and exit. When the transfer mechanism 4 is in the closed state, the first transport mechanism 2 and the second transport mechanism 3 are displaced to the bottom of the transfer mechanism 4 and enter the transfer mechanism 4 by lifting to complete the transfer or receiving operation.

[0055] In use, the carrier glass can be transported to the first scribing and breaking device via the first conveying mechanism 2 to scribing and breaking two opposite edges of the carrier glass. Taking the long edge of the carrier glass as an example, after the long edge of the carrier glass is trimmed, it is then conveyed by the first conveying mechanism 2 along the first direction to the upper part of the transfer mechanism 4, which is in the unfolded state. The transfer mechanism 4 switches from the unfolded state to the closed state. At the same time, the first conveying mechanism 2 rotates the carrier glass 90 degrees and then descends along the second direction to detach it from the transfer mechanism 4 and peel off the carrier glass, so that the carrier glass is supported on the transfer mechanism 4 to complete the transfer operation. At this time, the first conveying mechanism 2 will... The conveying mechanism 2 is reset via the travel track 1 to prepare to convey the next piece of carrier glass; while the second conveying mechanism 3 is displaced via the travel track 1 to below the transfer mechanism 4 in the closed state, and the second conveying mechanism 3 can enter the transfer mechanism 4 to support the carrier glass by rising along the second direction. At the same time, the transfer mechanism 4 changes from the closed state to the unfolded state, which on the one hand can support the second conveying mechanism 3 to slide away from the transfer mechanism 4 along the first direction and transport the carrier glass to the next scribing and breaking device that can process its short side, and on the other hand, the transfer mechanism 4 in the unfolded state is ready to receive the next piece of carrier glass conveyed by the first conveying mechanism 2.

[0056] In the above embodiments, the second conveying mechanism 3 redetermines the support position of the carrier glass through the transfer mechanism 4, which can effectively prevent the carrier glass from shifting after one trimming process. Furthermore, this application explicitly states that the first conveying mechanism 2 can only successfully detach from the transfer mechanism 4 by descending along the second direction after being displaced to a specific position via the travel track 1, and the second conveying mechanism 3 can only successfully transfer the carrier glass placed on the transfer mechanism 4 by rising along the second direction after being positioned at a specific position via the travel track 1, ensuring accurate receiving position. It should be noted that the aforementioned specific position can be a position with a small deviation acceptable to the trimming process, and the first direction is the extension direction of the travel track 1, which is also the sliding direction of the first conveying mechanism 2 and the second conveying mechanism 3. The second direction is the height direction close to or far from the travel track 1, which can be understood as the longitudinal direction perpendicular to the first direction when observing the conveying device from a left- or right-view perspective; this is the second direction as defined above.

[0057] Reference Figure 2 , Figure 3 as well as Figure 6 As shown, in some embodiments, the transfer mechanism 4 includes two opposing frame bodies 41 and load-bearing components respectively disposed on each frame body 41; the two load-bearing components are slidably installed in the corresponding frame bodies 41.

[0058] When there is a gap between the two carrier components that can accommodate the first transport mechanism 2 and the second transport mechanism 3, the transfer mechanism 4 is in an unfolded state; when the two carrier components approach each other along a third direction via the first drive mechanism 43 to form a transfer platform, the transfer mechanism 4 is in a closed state.

[0059] With the above structure, when viewed from above, the two frame bodies 41 are located on both sides of the travel track 1, and the two load-bearing components are slidably installed in the corresponding frame bodies 41, either close to or far apart from each other. When the two load-bearing components slide far apart from each other, it is the unfolded form of the transfer mechanism 4, and the first transport mechanism 2 and the second transport mechanism 3 can slide in and out of the transfer mechanism 4 along the first direction through the travel track 1; while when the two load-bearing components slide in the direction that they are close to each other, it is the closed form of the transfer mechanism 4, which can form a platform for transferring the load-bearing glass plate.

[0060] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, in some embodiments, the support component includes a mounting body 42 and two support parts disposed in the mounting body 42; the mounting body 42 is slidably mounted on the frame body 41; a gap space 410 is reserved between the two support parts, and the support part is composed of a plurality of spaced first support bars 421, which together with the gap between each first support bar 421 and the gap space 410 form a gap array.

[0061] Among them, the first transport mechanism 2 and the second transport mechanism 3 can enter and exit the transfer mechanism 4 in a closed state by lifting along the second direction through the gap array.

[0062] Using the above structure, the mounting body 42 can be mounted on the frame body 41 via a slide rail slider mechanism. Specifically, a slide rail structure is installed or formed on the two side walls of the mounting body 42, and the frame body 41 is provided with sliders on both sides of the corresponding slide rail structure to limit the displacement direction. A gap space 410 is reserved between the two bearing parts on the mounting body 42. In one embodiment of this application, the bearing part is composed of a plurality of first support bars 421. Each first support bar 421 is arranged at intervals and side by side along the side wall of the mounting body 42, so that the gaps and gap space 410 between each first support bar 421 can be used to adapt to the structural shape of the support platform and base on the first transport mechanism 2 and the second transport mechanism 3. In use, when the transfer mechanism 4 is in the closed state, both the first transport mechanism 2 and the second transport mechanism 3 can enter the transfer mechanism 4 through the gap between each of the first support bars 421 and the reserved space 410. The first transport mechanism 2 or the second transport mechanism 3 can be moved to directly below the transfer mechanism 4 via the travel track 1, and the height of the support platform can be changed by the lifting function so that it matches the gap between each of the first support bars 421 and the space 410, so that it can smoothly enter and exit the transfer mechanism for transferring the carrier glass.

[0063] Reference Figure 4 As shown, in some embodiments, the first conveying mechanism 2 includes a first base 21 and a first support platform 22 mounted on the first base 21; the first base 21 is slidably mounted on the travel track 1 so that the first conveying mechanism 2 can slide along a first direction; the first support platform 22 is composed of a plurality of spaced second support bars 221, and each second support bar 221 can correspond one-to-one with the gap between each first support bar 421.

[0064] Using the above structure, the first support platform 22 is detachably installed on the first base 21, and the maximum area of ​​the end face of each component in the first base 21 is smaller than the layout area of ​​the interval space 410. In one embodiment, the first support platform 22 is composed of a number of second support bars 211. Each second support bar 221 is arranged side by side to form a table surface that can hold the carrier glass. In order for the first support platform 22 to be able to smoothly detach from or enter the transfer mechanism 4, each second support bar 221 can be arranged to correspond one-to-one with the gap between each first support bar 421. It can be understood that when the first base 21 is moved to the position facing the interval space 410, the position of each first support bar 421 can be staggered and matched with the position of each second support bar 221.

[0065] In use, when the first conveying mechanism 2 moves to the designated position, the transfer mechanism 4 changes to a closed state. At this time, the position of the first support platform 22 is above the bearing part. Then, the height of the first support platform 22 can be gradually reduced by the lifting function until the first base 21 passes through the interval space 410 and each second support bar 221 passes through the bearing part through the gap between each first support bar 421, so as to transfer the glass plate to the bearing part of the transfer mechanism.

[0066] Reference Figure 4 As shown, in some embodiments, the first base 21 is further provided with a first lifting assembly 23 and a rotating component 24; the first lifting assembly 23 is disposed inside the first base 21 and can support the first support platform 22 for lifting and lowering along the second direction; the rotating component 24 is connected between the first support platform 22 and the first lifting assembly 23 and is used to drive the first support platform 22 to rotate in a plane; each second support bar 221 is connected to the rotating component 24 through the first base plate 25, and the first base plate 25 is adapted to the space 410.

[0067] With the above structure, the first lifting assembly 23 can be an electric lifting rod, capable of driving the first base plate 25 to lift and lower each of the second support bars 221. In this application, a gear and rack transmission and a slide rail guide are preferred for the first lifting assembly 23. Specifically, the lifting rack extends along the second direction and is arranged on the inner wall of the first base 21. A motor frame with a lifting drive motor is slidably fitted into the first base 21, and the output shaft of the lifting drive motor meshes with the lifting rack through a transmission gear. A slide rail is provided on the inner wall of the first base 21 on the side opposite to the lifting rack, and a slider formed on the motor frame itself is slidably embedded in the slide rail to limit the sliding direction of the motor frame. The rotating component 24 is fixedly installed on the top of the motor frame and connected to each of the second support bars 221 through the first base plate 25 to form a first support platform 22 capable of lifting, lowering, and rotating. This rotating component 24 can be driven by a rotary motor to rotate the first base plate 24. The shape and structure of the first base plate 25 are adapted to the space 410, specifically, the first base plate 25 can enter and exit the transfer mechanism 4 through the reserved space of the space 410.

[0068] Reference Figure 4 As shown, in some embodiments, a second drive mechanism 5 is also provided on the first base 21;

[0069] The second drive mechanism 5 includes a first trolley drive component 51 and a first trolley gear 52 that is rotatably mounted on the first trolley drive component 51. The first trolley drive component 51 is mounted on the bottom of the first base 21, and the first trolley gear 52 meshes with a trolley rack 11 in the travel track 1 to drive the first base 21 to slide on the travel track 1 via the first trolley drive component 51.

[0070] With the above structure, a first trolley drive component 51 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the first base 21. It can be a drive motor, and a first trolley gear 52 is configured on the output shaft of the drive motor. When the first trolley gear 52 meshes with the trolley rack 11 on the trolley track 1, since the first base 21 is slidably installed on the trolley track 1, and through the transmission cooperation of the trolley gear 52 and the trolley rack 11, the first conveying mechanism 2 can slide along the extension direction of the trolley track 1.

[0071] Reference Figure 5 As shown, in some embodiments, the second transport mechanism 3 includes a second base 31 and a second support platform 32 mounted on the second base 31; the second base 31 is slidably mounted on the travel track 1 so that the second transport mechanism 3 can slide along a first direction; the second support platform 32 is composed of a plurality of spaced third support bars 321, and each third support bar 321 can correspond one-to-one with the gap between each first support bar 421.

[0072] With the above structure, the second conveying mechanism 3 has the same structure as the first conveying mechanism 2, so it will not be described in detail. The second conveying mechanism 3 is composed of a second base 31 and a second support platform 32.

[0073] Reference Figure 5 As shown, in some embodiments, a second lifting assembly 33 is also provided in the second base 31;

[0074] The second lifting assembly 33 is disposed inside the second base 31 and can support the second support platform 32 for lifting along the second direction; each third support bar 321 is connected to the second lifting assembly 33 through the second base plate 34, and the second base plate 34 is adapted to the interval space 410.

[0075] Using the above structure, the second lifting component 33 has the same structure as the first lifting component 23; however, in this embodiment, the difference between the second transport mechanism 3 and the first transport mechanism 2 is that the rotating component is eliminated. Since the carrier glass illustrated in this application is generally rectangular, only one 90-degree rotation is needed to complete the trimming of the four sides. If the second transport mechanism 3 also needs to have the function of driving the second support platform 32 to rotate, the structure of the first transport mechanism 2 can be directly adopted.

[0076] Reference Figure 5 As shown, in some embodiments, a third drive mechanism 6 is also provided on the second base 31;

[0077] The third drive mechanism 6 includes a second trolley drive component 61 and a second trolley gear 62 rotatably mounted on the second trolley drive component 61; the second trolley drive component 61 is mounted on the bottom of the second base 31, and the second trolley gear 62 meshes with a trolley rack 11 in the travel track 1, for driving the second base 31 to slide on the travel track 1 via the second trolley drive component 61.

[0078] With the above structure, the third drive mechanism 6 has the same structure as the second drive mechanism 5 on the first transport mechanism 2, and will not be described in detail here.

[0079] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, in some embodiments, the first drive mechanism 43 includes a servo motor and a lead screw and nut motion pair fixedly mounted on the corresponding frame body 41. The lead screw in the lead screw and nut motion pair is connected to rotate synchronously with the servo motor, and the ball nut in the lead screw and nut motion pair is fixedly mounted on the corresponding mounting body 42.

[0080] Alternatively, the first drive mechanism 43 may be an electric actuator, connected to the frame body 41 and the mounting body 42;

[0081] This allows the mounting body 42 to slide on the frame body 41 via the first drive mechanism 43.

[0082] Using the above structure, this application employs a lead screw and nut kinematic pair and a servo motor to form the first drive mechanism 43, which is used to drive the mounting body 42 to slide on the frame body 41. The servo motor can be fixed on the frame body 41, and the lead screw of the lead screw and the output shaft of the servo motor are synchronously connected. The ball nut sleeved on the lead screw is fixedly connected to the mounting body 42. Thus, when the servo motor drives the lead screw to rotate synchronously, the ball nut can drive the mounting body 42 to slide on the frame body 41 along the slide rail slider structure.

[0083] This application uses a lead screw and nut kinematic pair to smoothly and accurately control its sliding distance. Similarly, the first and second lifting mechanisms both use gear and rack coordination to make the lifting dimensions more accurate.

[0084] Reference Figures 1 to 6As shown, in some embodiments, the first conveying mechanism 2, the second conveying mechanism 3, and the transfer mechanism 4 all use vacuum adsorption to fix the carrier glass to avoid scratches during transportation. In use, after the long side of the carrier glass is trimmed by the first conveying mechanism 2, the carrier glass can be firmly adsorbed through the vacuum adsorption ports on each of the second support bars 221 before transportation. When the transfer mechanism 4 transfers the carrier glass from the first conveying mechanism 2, it can fix the carrier glass through the vacuum adsorption ports on each of the first support bars 421. When the first support platform 22 is about to detach from the support unit via the lifting function, the vacuum adsorption force of each of the second support bars 221 needs to be released, and the carrier glass placed on the support unit. To prevent the position of the carrier glass from changing arbitrarily, it can be fixed through the vacuum adsorption ports on the first support bars 421. This can be understood as completing the transfer work by the mutual switching of initiating and releasing vacuum adsorption. The second conveying mechanism 3 also adopts this working principle to ensure that the position of the carrier glass does not change significantly during transportation, ensuring accurate trimming.
