[0134] In the embodiment, the lifting structure 33 comprises:

[0140] The connecting column 338 is movably arranged in the lifting port 333 and connected with the second lifting column 335 and the lifting plate 322 at both ends respectively;
[0141] The partition part is composed of the first partition body 3391 and the second partition body 3392;
[0142] The first partition body 3391 and the second partition body 3392 have a movable port 3393 for the first lifting column 334 or the second lifting column 335 to pass through, and the air exhaust cavity is divided into a first air exhaust cavity 3a communicated with the first adsorption cavity 311 through the first air exhaust port 331 and the air exhaust branch 325, a second air exhaust cavity 3b communicated with the second adsorption cavity 321, the air exhaust branch 325 and the air exhaust source through the second air exhaust port 332, and a third air exhaust cavity 3c communicated with the lifting port 333.
[0143] In the embodiment, the second air exhaust cavity 3b is communicated with the air exhaust branch 325 in the second adsorption body through an air pipe.
[0144] In the embodiment, a negative pressure control valve (not shown in the figure) is arranged on the body and communicated with the second air exhaust cavity 3b, which is used to be opened when the glass is loosened to eliminate the negative pressure in the first adsorption cavity and / or the second adsorption cavity and / or the adsorption groove.
[0145] Reference Figures 1-3 The adsorption of the glass in the embodiment can have at least the following two forms:
[0146] First, single-sided adsorption: in this mode, the second lifting column is controlled to descend by energizing the electromagnetic valve (the corresponding electromagnetic valve of the first lifting column is de-energized, so that the movable port on the first partition body and the second air exhaust port are opened, i.e., the sealing sheet on the first lifting column is located between the second air exhaust port and the movable port), and the second adsorption body is driven to approach the first adsorption body by the lifting plate, until the second adsorption cavity and the first adsorption cavity are communicated, then the glass is placed on the second adsorption body in the state of opening the adsorption control valve, the air flow in the first adsorption cavity, the second adsorption cavity and the adsorption groove is exhausted by the air pump, so that the glass is adsorbed on the second adsorption body;
[0147] Second, double-sided adsorption: in this mode, the second adsorption body is separated from the first adsorption body by de-energizing the electromagnetic valve and driving the second lifting column and the lifting plate by the reset spring, and then the glass is placed on the first adsorption body, the electromagnetic valve is energized, and the second adsorption body is driven to descend and contact the glass, then the air pump exhausts the gas in the first adsorption cavity and the second adsorption cavity through the second air exhaust cavity in the state of closing the adsorption control valve, so that the two sides of the glass are adsorbed and fixed, and after the adsorption is completed, the electromagnetic valve of the first lifting column is energized, and the sealing sheet on the first lifting column is lowered and closes the movable port on the first partition body, so that the air exhaust branch in the first adsorption body is closed.
[0148] Under the control of the lifting structure in this embodiment, the first and second adsorption bodies can be evacuated simultaneously through the second suction chamber, ensuring the synchronicity of adsorption during double-sided adsorption. Furthermore, the first lifting column seals the suction branch in the lower first adsorption body, so that when the glass is released, the second suction chamber loses negative pressure first, causing the upper second adsorption chamber to release the glass first. Subsequently, the first lifting column controls the sealing plate to open the movable port on the first partition before the first adsorption chamber releases the glass. This avoids the situation where the glass is on the first adsorption body when it is released, preventing the first adsorption chamber from releasing first while the second adsorption chamber has not yet released, which could cause the glass to fall off the first adsorption body and damage it. After the second and first adsorption chambers release the glass one after the other, the second lifting column is controlled to rise, thereby allowing the glass to be removed smoothly.
[0149] It is worth noting that during double-sided adsorption, the second adsorption body is controlled to press slightly against the glass, which can improve the fixation effect on the glass and ensure the stability of the cutting.
[0150] In addition, during single-sided adsorption, the sealing plate on the second lifting column controls the descent of the second adsorption body while also sealing the movable opening on the second partition. Therefore, when the gas in the second suction chamber is drawn out to form a negative pressure, the gas in the third suction chamber will press the sealing plate tightly against the movable opening of the second partition, thus ensuring the stability of the contact between the second adsorption body and the first adsorption body.

The second adsorption bodies 320 are adapted to each first adsorption cavity 311 of the first adsorption body 310. That is, when the lifting plate 333 descends, the second adsorption body 320 can enter the first adsorption cavity 311.

[0155] A partition 41 is provided inside the base 40 and divides the base 40 into a central cavity 40a and side cavities 40b located on both sides of the central cavity 40a. The two ends of the central cavity 40a and the side cavities 40b extend longitudinally through each other.

[0182] Reference Figure 4 In the embodiment, the wheel bodies of the two adjacent second adsorption bodies face different directions, and more specifically, Figure 4 for example, the wheel body on the left second adsorption body is used to control the forward or backward movement of the glass on the lower frame body 101 when rotating, and the wheel body on the right second adsorption body is used to control the left or right movement of the glass on the lower frame body 101 when rotating.
[0183] In the embodiment, the adsorption sub-body and the driven structure constitute the conveying assembly of the embodiment.
[0184] In the embodiment, a sealing plate 400a is arranged in the central cavity 40a, and the bottom of the adsorption body 46 is in contact with the sealing plate 400a when the adsorption body 46 is raised.
[0185] In the embodiment, the air injection cavity 470a on the support frame is provided with an air injection hole 470b, and when air is injected through the air injection hole 470b, the wheel body is driven to rotate. In the embodiment, the air injection directions of the air injection holes in the support frames of the wheel bodies on both sides of the same second adsorption body are opposite, that is, when air is injected, one wheel body rotates to drive the glass to move forward or left, and the other wheel body rotates to drive the glass to move backward or right, so that the glass can be controlled to move forward, backward, left and right in the conveying area.
[0186] In the embodiment, a gas flow system (a gas flow control system independent of the air suction source) for controlling the gas flow in the telescopic cavity and the gas supply cavity is further included, and the gas flow system includes a control unit 90, a gas supply pump 91, an air suction pump 92, a gas supply pipeline 93 and an air suction pipeline 94. The control unit 90 is used to control the gas supply pump 91 and the air suction pump 92. The gas supply pipeline 93 is connected between the gas supply pump and the upper cavity of the gas supply cavity. The air suction pipeline 94 is connected between the air suction pump 92 and the telescopic cavity 43. A communication pipe 95 is arranged between the gas supply pipeline 93 and the air suction pipeline 94, and the communication pipe 95 is provided with a control valve 96.
[0187] Reference Figure 4 In the embodiment, a plurality of second adsorption bodies are arranged on the lifting plate at intervals. The same as in the embodiment 1 is that each second adsorption body can perform lifting work when the lifting plate is raised and lowered.
[0188] Different from the embodiment 1 is that the second adsorption body in the embodiment not only has the function of adsorbing the glass, but also has the function of driving the glass to move, for example:
[0189] When single-side adsorption is performed, the lifting plate is lowered, and each second adsorption body is controlled to be lowered, and the second adsorption body is caused to enter the first adsorption cavity of the first adsorption body. At this time, the air flow in the telescopic cavity (the area above the sliding plate, the same below) can be extracted by the air flow system, and the sliding plate is controlled to be lifted by the supporting spring, so that the base body is lifted, and the wheel body is exposed from the top of the side cavity. At this time, when the conveyor sends the glass to the conveying area (or the adsorption area, the same below), the wheel body exposed from the top of the cavity can receive the glass and assist the glass to move in the conveying area (compared with the embodiment 1, the glass is pushed into the adsorption area, and the damage to the glass is smaller), and then air is supplied to the telescopic cavity by the air flow system, and the sliding plate is controlled to be lowered so that the wheel body is retracted into the side cavity, and the adsorption body is lowered so that the bottom end of the adsorption body is in contact with the bottom of the first adsorption cavity of the first adsorption body (that is, the air suction cavity is sealed with the air extraction branch of the first adsorption body). When the air extraction source is started, the bottom of the glass can be adsorbed by the air suction cavity (and the adsorption table) to be completely fixed. If necessary, the adsorption table can also be lifted to lift the glass, so that the distance between the glass and the lower frame body is lengthened, and the cutting knife of the cutting device is prevented from contacting the lower frame body during cutting.
[0190] After the adsorption is completed, the adsorption table releases the glass, and the wheel body is lifted again to support the glass. When the air supply cavity is supplied with air by the air flow system, the wheel body is rotated to drive the glass to move and leave the conveying area and return to the conveyor.
[0191] Similarly, when double-side adsorption is performed, part of the second adsorption bodies are lowered (the wheel bodies of the second adsorption bodies are exposed from the cavity opening), and part of the second adsorption bodies (the wheel bodies of the second adsorption bodies are exposed from the cavity bottom) are lifted. In this way, when the glass is received, the two end faces of the glass can contact the wheel bodies and be guided into the conveying area for cutting.
[0192] When the glass is fixed by double-side adsorption, the air suction body is lowered to contact the air suction cavity with the glass, and the adsorption body is returned to the side cavity to adsorb the two end faces of the glass. When the glass is driven to move, the wheel body is exposed from the side cavity and drives the glass to move when rotating.
[0193] It is worth mentioning that:
[0194] Reference Figure 8 When the air flow in the air supply cavity enters the air jet cavity and is jetted out through the first air flow cavity, the jetted air contacts the inner wall of the inner cavity of the wheel body, so as to drive the wheel body to rotate.
[0195] Secondly, the air flow port provided on the exhaust gas can clean the glass, and especially can clean the moving route of the wheel body on the glass, so as to protect the glass surface from being scratched.
[0196] In the cleaning of the embodiment, the air supply to the air supply cavity or the partial air extraction from the air supply cavity can be controlled by the air flow system. When the air supply to the air supply cavity is controlled, the lifting body is controlled to descend; when the air extraction from the air supply cavity is controlled, the lifting body is controlled to ascend.
[0197] When the lifting body descends, the gas entering the air supply cavity can be filtered by the filter screen and enter the inner cavity through the air inlet, the outer cavity, the first exhaust port and the first air flow cavity in the jet cavity, and drive the wheel body to rotate while blowing the impurities in the wheel body path to the two sides of the path, which is used to blow the impurities to the two sides.
[0198] When the lifting body ascends, the gas entering the wheel body from the air flow port can enter the lower cavity of the air supply cavity through the second air flow cavity, and the impurities in the outer cavity can be taken away from the air inlet after one round of the outer cavity through the second exhaust port, completing the dust extraction and removal.
[0199] Therefore, in the conveying mode of the embodiment, the embodiment can receive the glass conveyed to the lower body from any position, and can also send the glass at the conveying area away from any position. In the integrated mode of the embodiment, the glass is controlled to move while the cleaning of the surface of the glass is completed by the air flow system, avoiding the glass being scratched by the foreign matter on the surface during conveying.
[0200] The above only describes the preferred embodiments of the present application and is not intended to limit the present application. Any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present application shall be included in the protection scope of the present application.
