[0046] The purpose, features and advantages of the present invention will be further described with reference to the accompanying drawings and in conjunction with the embodiments. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0047] The following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field based on the embodiments of the present invention without making any creative efforts shall fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0048] It should be noted that all directional indications in the embodiments of the present invention (such as up, down, left, right, front, back, etc.) are only used to explain the relative position relationship, movement status, etc. between the various components under a certain specific posture (as shown in the accompanying drawings). If the specific posture changes, the directional indication will also change accordingly.

[0049] In the present invention, unless otherwise specified or limited, the terms "connection" and "fixation" should be understood in a broad sense. For example, "fixation" can mean fixed connection, detachable connection, or integration; mechanical connection or electrical connection; direct connection or indirect connection through an intermediate medium; internal communication between two elements or interaction between two elements, unless otherwise specified. Those skilled in the art will be able to understand the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention based on specific circumstances.

[0050] In addition, in the present invention, descriptions such as "first", "second", etc. are only used for descriptive purposes and cannot be understood as indicating or implying their relative importance or implicitly indicating the number of the indicated technical features. Therefore, the features defined as "first" and "second" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one of the features. In addition, the meaning of "and / or" appearing throughout the text is to include three parallel solutions. Taking "A and / or B as an example", it includes solution A, or solution B, or solutions that meet both A and B. In addition, the technical solutions between the various embodiments can be combined with each other, but they must be based on the ability of ordinary technicians in this field to implement them. When the combination of technical solutions is mutually contradictory or cannot be implemented, it should be deemed that such a combination of technical solutions does not exist and is not within the scope of protection required by the present invention.

[0051] like Figure 1As shown, the present invention proposes a loading system 100, which includes a film guide table 1, a turntable device 2, a manipulator 3 and a control host 4. The film guide table 1 is formed with a loading channel and is provided with a loading sensor, which is arranged corresponding to the loading channel. The turntable device 2 includes a turntable seat 22 and a turntable 21 that are rotatably connected. The turntable 21 has a first placement space 211 and a second placement space 212. The first placement space 211 and the second placement space 212 are used to place a glass rack containing glass to be processed. The turntable device 2 has a loading side 5, which is arranged close to the film guide table 1; the manipulator 3 is arranged between the turntable device 2 and the film guide table 1, and is used to transfer the glass to be processed located on the loading side 5 to the loading channel; the control host 4 is electrically connected to the turntable device 2, the film guide table 1 and the manipulator 3; wherein the control host 4 controls the manipulator 3 to transfer the glass to be processed on the glass rack to the loading channel.

[0052] In this embodiment, the film guide table 1 is provided with a loading channel for feeding the glass to be processed into the edging device. When edging the glass, the staff uses a forklift to place the glass rack loaded with glass on the turntable device 2. The turntable 21 of the turntable device 2 has a first placement space 211 and a second placement space 212. When the first placement space 211 faces the loading side 5, the robot 3 transfers the glass placed in the first placement space 211 to the loading channel of the film guide table 1. Every time a piece of glass passes through the loading channel, the loading sensor senses it once and transmits the number of sensing times to the control host 4 in real time. The control host 4 can input a preset working number corresponding to the number of glasses loaded on the glass rack. When the number of sensing times is consistent with the preset working number, the glass rack in the first placement space 211 is empty. At this time, the control host 4 controls the turntable 21 to rotate so that the second placement space 212 faces the loading side 5, and the robot 3 transfers and loads the glass located in the second placement space 212. When the glass in the first placement space 211 is transferred and loaded, the staff can use a forklift to unload the glass to the second placement space 212. When the glass in the second placement space 212 is transferred and loaded, the staff can use a forklift to unload the glass to the first placement space 211. In this way, the turntable and loading are automated, avoiding manual operation of the turntable and loading, and improving the efficiency of edging production.

[0053] As can be understood, the sheet guide table 1 can be used as part of the edge grinding equipment. The sheet guide table 1 is equipped with a positioning device to ensure that the glass enters the loading channel in the correct position. Safety guardrails and safety warning signs are installed within the loading range of the robot 3. Safety sensors can be installed on the safety guardrails to ensure that workers cannot enter the working range of the robot 3. If a worker enters the working range of the robot 3, the robot 3 will automatically stop working and issue an alarm. Optionally, the control host 4 has two modes, automatic and manual, for workers to choose from to meet different production needs.

[0054] In one embodiment of the present invention, Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the turntable device 2 also includes a rotating drive member 25, a deceleration sensor 23 and an in-position sensor 24 electrically connected to the control host 4. The rotating drive member 25 is connected to the turntable seat 22, and the output end of the rotating drive member 25 is connected to the turntable 21. The deceleration sensor 23 and the in-position sensor 24 are spaced apart on the turntable seat 22 and are arranged corresponding to the loading side 5.

[0055] In this embodiment, the rotary drive member 25 is mounted on the turntable seat 22, and the output end of the rotary drive member 25 is connected to the turntable 21. The control host 4 controls the operation of the rotary drive member 25 to rotate the turntable 21 so that the first placement space 211 or the second placement space 212 faces the loading side 5. The turntable seat 22 is also provided with a deceleration sensor 23 and an in-position sensor 24 corresponding to the loading side 5. When the first placement space 211 or the second placement space 212 approaches the loading side 5, the deceleration sensor 23 is triggered, and the control host 4 controls the rotary drive member 25 to decelerate. When the first placement space 211 or the second placement space 212 faces the loading side 5, the in-position sensor 24 is triggered, and the control host 4 controls the rotary drive member 25 to stop working. This prevents the glass rack from carrying too much weight of the glass, which may cause the glass rack to shift in position due to inertia or even cause a safety accident.

[0056] It can be understood that the turntable seat 22 is provided with a plurality of movable rollers 221 arranged circumferentially. The plurality of movable rollers 221 are arranged at intervals and abut against the turntable 21 to support the turntable 21. The deceleration sensor 23 and the in-position sensor 24 can be arranged between the movable rollers 221. The turntable 21 is provided with trigger structures of the deceleration sensor 23 and the in-position sensor 24 corresponding to the first placement space 211 and the second placement space 212, respectively.

[0057] Optionally, multiple groups of deceleration sensors 23 and in-position sensors 24 can be provided to improve the accuracy of the control host 4 in controlling the operation of the rotary drive 25. This can also effectively prevent safety incidents caused by partial sensor failure, making the turntable device 2 safer, more stable, and more reliable. The rotary drive 25 can be composed of a motor drive and a transmission mechanism. The motor drive is mounted on or near the mounting base, and the transmission mechanism can be a reduction gearbox or chain, etc., without specific limitation herein.

[0058] In one embodiment of the present invention, Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the turntable seat 22 is provided with a locking member 222 , which is electrically connected to the control host 4 , and is used to lock or unlock the turntable 21 .

[0059] In this embodiment, when the first placement space 211 or the second placement space 212 faces the loading side 5, the control host 4 controls the rotating drive member 25 to stop working. When the in-position sensor 24 is triggered, the control host 4 controls the locking member 222 to engage the turntable 21 to lock the turntable 21 to prevent the turntable 21 from shaking when the robot 3 transfers and loads the glass, causing problems in the transfer of the robot 3.

[0060] It can be understood that the turntable 21 is provided with a latching slot or a locking slot corresponding to the locking member 222 to improve the reliability of the locking member 222 locking the turntable 21 .

[0061] In one embodiment of the present invention, Figure 2 As shown, the manipulator 3 is provided with a plurality of suction cups 31 and a negative pressure device. The suction cup 31 is connected to the negative pressure device through an air valve. There are a plurality of air valves, and each air valve is provided corresponding to a suction cup 31 .

[0062] In this embodiment, the manipulator 3 transports the glass by negative pressure adsorption. A plurality of suction cups 31 are provided at the gripping end of the manipulator 3. Each suction cup 31 is switched on and off by a separate air valve to adapt to the loading operation of glass of various specifications. When the specifications of the loaded glass are smaller, the number of air valves opened is smaller. When the specifications of the loaded glass are larger, the number of air valves opened is larger.

[0063] It can be understood that the manipulator 3 includes multiple manipulator arms and a rotating platform. The multiple manipulator arms are connected in sequence, and one end of the connected manipulator arm is connected to the rotating platform. In this way, the manipulator 3 has the ability to transport in a large range and at multiple angles.

[0064] Optionally, the number of the suction cups 31 can be set to 8, the diameter of the suction cups 31 is 100 mm, and the position of the suction cups 31 on the robot 3 can be adjusted to facilitate loading of glass of different shapes.

[0065] In one embodiment of the present invention, Figure 1 As shown, the film guide table 1 is provided with multiple belts and rolling drive members, and the multiple belts are connected to the output end of the rolling drive member to form a feeding channel, and the feeding sensor is arranged on the side of the belt facing away from the feeding channel.

[0066] In this embodiment, multiple belts are connected to the output end of the rolling drive member, and the multiple belts are arranged in parallel to form a loading channel. The loading sensor is arranged between two adjacent belts to detect whether the glass is loaded in place and record the number of times the glass is loaded.

[0067] Optionally, multiple rollers are arranged in parallel and at intervals on the film guide table 1 to form a loading channel on the side facing away from the ground. The loading sensor is arranged on the side of the roller close to the ground and between two adjacent rollers.

[0068] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the present invention also proposes a method for loading a film, which is applied to a loading system 100. The specific structure of the loading system 100 refers to the above embodiment. Since the loading method adopts all the technical solutions of all the above embodiments, it has at least all the beneficial effects brought by the technical solutions of the above embodiments, which will not be described one by one here.

[0069] The loading methods include:

[0070] S1. Place the glass rack containing the glass to be processed in the first placement space 211. The control host 4 controls the turntable 21 to rotate until the first placement space 211 faces the loading side 5.

[0071] S2, the control host 4 obtains the transfer signal, controls the robot 3 to transfer the glass to be processed to the loading channel, and at the same time, places the glass rack carrying the glass to be processed in the second placement space 212;

[0072] S3, after the glass rack of the first placement space 211 is loaded, the control host 4 obtains a transfer completion signal, and the control host 4 controls the turntable 21 to rotate until the second placement space 212 faces the loading side 5;

[0073] S4, the control host 4 obtains a transfer signal, controls the robot 3 to transfer the glass to be processed to the loading channel, and at the same time, places the glass rack carrying the glass to be processed in the first placement space 211;

[0074] S5. After the glass rack of the second placement space 212 is loaded, the control host 4 obtains a transfer completion signal, and the control host 4 controls the turntable 21 to rotate until the first placement space 211 faces the loading side 5.

[0075] Repeat S2 to S5 until the film loading is completed.

[0076] In this embodiment, when the turntable 21 rotates to its proper position, the control host 4 receives a transfer signal to control the robot 3 to transfer the glass to be processed. When the robot 3 completes the transfer of the glass on the glass rack, the control host 4 receives a transfer completion signal and controls the turntable 21 to rotate and transfer the glass on another glass rack. While the glass rack in the first storage space 211 is being transferred and loaded, the empty glass rack in the second storage space 212 can be replaced with a loaded glass rack. This reduces the time required to place the glass racks on the turntable 21 and improves the efficiency of glass edging production.

[0077] It can be understood that the turntable 21 is composed of a base plate and a partition plate. The base plate is connected to the output end of the rotating drive member 25. The partition plate and the base plate are set at an angle. The first placement space 211 and the second placement space 212 are formed on both sides of the partition plate respectively. The base plate can be set in a rectangular shape.

[0078] In one embodiment of the present invention, the control host 4 receives a transfer completion signal, and the control host 4 controls the turntable 21 to rotate until the first placement space 211 or the second placement space 212 faces the loading side 5. The specific steps include:

[0079] The control host 4 controls the rotation drive member 25 to work, driving the turntable 21 to rotate;

[0080] The first placement space 211 or the second placement space 212 triggers the deceleration sensor 23, and the control host 4 controls the rotation driving member 25 to decelerate;

[0081] The first placement space 211 or the second placement space 212 triggers the in-position sensor 24, and the control host 4 controls the rotating driving member 25 to stop working;

[0082] The control host 4 controls the locking member 222 to lock the turntable 21 , and the control host 4 obtains a transfer signal.

[0083] In this embodiment, the process of controlling the turntable 21 to rotate by the control host 4 is divided into two parts. When the control host 4 controls the rotating driving member 25 to rotate the turntable 21 to trigger the deceleration sensor 23, the control host 4 controls the rotating driving member 25 to decelerate. When the control host 4 controls the rotating driving member 25 to rotate the turntable 21 to trigger the in-position sensor 24, the control host 4 controls the rotating driving member 25 to stop working. At the same time, the control host 4 controls the locking member 222 to lock the turntable 21, and the control host 4 obtains a transfer signal.

[0084] It can be understood that when the placement space facing the loading side 5 completes loading, the control host 4 determines whether the glass rack in the other placement space is in place. When the glass rack in the other placement space is in place, the control host 4 controls the turntable 21 to rotate. When the glass rack in the other placement space is not in place, the control host 4 controls the turntable 21 not to rotate until the glass rack is in place.

[0085] In one embodiment of the present invention, the specific steps of controlling the host 4 to obtain the transfer signal and controlling the manipulator 3 to transfer the glass to be processed to the loading channel include:

[0086] Input the preset working times to the control host 4 according to the number of glasses to be processed loaded on the glass rack;

[0087] The control host 4 controls the manipulator 3 to transport the glass to be processed to the loading channel. Each time the glass to be processed enters the loading channel, the loading sensor is triggered once. The control host 4 records the number of times the loading sensor is triggered.

[0088] The control host 4 determines whether the triggering times are equal to the preset working times;

[0089] If not, the robot 3 continues to transport the glass to be processed;

[0090] If so, the control host 4 obtains a transfer completion signal.

[0091] In this embodiment, the control host 4 determines whether the robot 3 has completed loading by comparing the preset working times and the triggering times of the loading sensor. When the preset working times are equal to the triggering times of the loading sensor, the control host 4 controls the loading system 100 to proceed to the next step.

[0092] Optionally, the manipulator 3 may be equipped with an alarm device, and the control host 4 may pre-enter an alarm count. When the difference between the preset operating count and the loading sensor is greater than the alarm count, the alarm device will not be triggered. When the difference between the preset operating count and the loading sensor is less than or equal to the alarm count, the control host 4 will trigger the alarm device to prompt staff to monitor the operation of the manipulator 3 to avoid accidents. When the control host 4 receives the transfer completion signal, the control host 4 controls the alarm device to stop triggering.

[0093] In one embodiment of the present invention, the manipulator 3 has a stowed lowering state and a working state for transporting;

[0094] When the control host 4 obtains the transfer completion signal, the control host 4 controls the manipulator 3 to enter the lower state;

[0095] When the control host 4 obtains the transfer signal, the control host 4 controls the manipulator 3 to enter the working state.

[0096] In this embodiment, when the manipulator 3 is in the lowered state, the manipulator 3 is in a folded and stowed position to prevent the manipulator 3 from colliding with the turntable 21 when the control host 4 controls the turntable 21 to rotate, thereby causing damage to the manipulator 3 or affecting the normal rotation of the turntable device 2. When the manipulator 3 is in the working state, the manipulator 3 transfers the glass from the glass rack to the lead-in stage 1.

[0097] In one embodiment of the present invention, the turntable 21 has a forward rotation state of clockwise rotation and a reverse rotation state of counterclockwise rotation;

[0098] During the process of the control host 4 controlling the turntable 21 to rotate until the first placement space 211 faces the loading side 5, the turntable 21 is in a forward rotation state;

[0099] During the process in which the control host 4 controls the turntable 21 to rotate until the second placement space 212 faces the loading side 5 , the turntable 21 is in a reverse state.

[0100] In this embodiment, the turntable 21 rotates forward so that the first placement space 211 faces the loading side 5, and rotates reversely so that the second placement space 212 faces the loading side 5. In this way, the rotation angle of the turntable 21 can be controlled to be 180 degrees, avoiding the turntable 21 from rotating without limit and causing production hazards.

[0101] It is understandable that the turntable 21 can be rotated by a driving motor, or by a reduction gear set or chain driven by the driving motor. The turntable device 2 realizes the forward or reverse rotation of the turntable 21 by the forward or reverse rotation of the driving motor.

[0102] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and does not limit the patent scope of the present invention. All equivalent structural transformations made by using the contents of the present invention description and drawings under the concept of the present invention, or direct / indirect application in other related technical fields are included in the patent protection scope of the present invention.
