Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of glass production, and particularly to an automatic glass unloading machine for a hollow glass production line. Background Art

[0002] With the rapid development of technology, the application of glass is also increasing. Hollow glass is one of the products in the glass industry. Hollow glass is a new type of building material with good heat insulation, sound insulation, aesthetic appearance, and can reduce the self-weight of buildings. It is made of multiple pieces of glass, using a high-strength and high-airtightness composite adhesive to bond the glass pieces to an aluminum alloy frame containing desiccant to form a high-performance sound-insulating and heat-insulating glass. Hollow glass has various superior properties compared to ordinary double-layer glass, so it has been recognized. Hollow glass is a glass product in which two or more pieces of glass are evenly separated by effective supports and peripherally bonded and sealed to form a dry gas space between the glass layers. Its main materials are glass, warm edge spacer, corner bolts, butyl rubber, polysulfide rubber, and desiccant. During the production process of hollow glass, it is necessary to pick up and place the glass.

[0003] Currently, during the production of existing hollow glass, it is inconvenient to pick up and place some large pieces of glass. At the same time, with the operation of the equipment, vibration is inevitable, resulting in unstable transfer of the glass and easy to drop, posing a greater safety hazard. Summary of the Invention

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention is realized through the following technical solutions: An automatic glass unloading machine for a hollow glass production line, comprising:

[0005] A gantry, at the middle of the top of the gantry, a linear driver is installed;

[0006] A picking and placing mechanism, which is used for loading and transferring the hollow glass, and the picking and placing mechanism is installed at the side of the outer side of the gantry;

[0007] Among them, the picking and placing mechanism includes a mobile trolley, which is slidably installed on the side of the outside of the gantry and close to the linear actuator, and the top of the mobile trolley is fixedly installed with the output end of the linear actuator. A cylinder is installed on the side of the outside of the mobile trolley, and a glass holder is fixedly installed at the extending end of the cylinder. A suction cup is installed on the vertical surface of the outside of the glass holder, and the suction cup is installed on the side close to the cylinder. A vacuum generator is installed on the side of the glass holder away from the suction cup, and the air inlet end of the vacuum generator is communicated with the vacuum generator. A card slot is opened at the middle of the outside of the glass holder and close to the vacuum generator, and the card slot is opened above the vacuum generator. The output end of the linear actuator is used to drive the mobile trolley to move, move the entire glass holder to the side away from the conveying mechanism, and start the cylinder to work. By using the extension and contraction of the extending end of the cylinder, the glass holder can be driven to move downwards and upwards, which helps the suction cup to contact the insulating glass, and under the action of the vacuum generator, the insulating glass can be sucked, so as to fix the insulating glass and facilitate the transfer of the insulating glass.

[0008] A guiding component, which is used to support the insulating glass during production. The guiding component is installed on the lower side of the top of the gantry.

[0009] Among them, the guiding component includes a U-shaped guide rail, the opening of the U-shaped guide rail is downward, and the top of the U-shaped guide rail is fixedly installed with the lower side of the top of the gantry. An inverted conical hopper is rotatably installed on the side of the outside of the U-shaped guide rail, and a circular ring is fixedly installed on the conical surface of the outside of the inverted conical hopper. A clamping module is installed on the side of the U-shaped guide rail away from the inverted conical hopper. When the extending end of the cylinder contracts, the glass holder drives the insulating glass to move upwards, so that the top of the insulating glass and the top of the glass holder are embedded into the inside of the U-shaped guide rail together, and the top position of the outside of the insulating glass contacts the circular ring. Along with the movement of the insulating glass, the inverted conical hopper rotates, and combined with the uniform distribution of the inverted conical hoppers on the outside of the U-shaped guide rail, the insulating glass can be supported, making the movement of the insulating glass stable.

[0010] Preferably, there are two cylinders, and the two cylinders are symmetrically installed along the mobile trolley. There are four suction cups, and the four suction cups are evenly distributed on the vertical surface of the outside of the glass holder. When the output end of the linear actuator drives the mobile trolley to move, the insulating glass will be driven to move together, so that the position of the insulating glass can be adjusted, which helps to move the insulating glass.

[0011] Preferably, the inverted conical bucket is evenly distributed on the sides of the outer side of the U-shaped guide rail, and the diameter of the inverted conical bucket gradually increases from bottom to top. The circular ring is made of rubber material. When the circular ring contacts the insulating glass, it will be deformed by the extrusion force, thereby achieving flexible contact, which is not easy to cause damage to the insulating glass and plays a protective role.

[0012] Preferably, the card connection module comprises a sliding connection bar, which is slidably mounted on the side of the outer side of the U-shaped guide rail, and a supporting square column is fixedly mounted in the middle of the bottom of the sliding connection bar, and a connecting tube is fixedly mounted at the bottom of the sliding connection bar and close to the supporting square column, and a card joint is slidably mounted at the center of the outer side of the connecting tube, and the position of the card joint corresponds to the position of the card slot, and a spring is fixedly mounted between the central axis of the outer side of the card joint and the inner wall of the connecting tube, and a bending plate is fixedly mounted on the outer side of the sliding connection bar and close to the bottom position, and a limiting plate is fixedly mounted on the side of the bending plate away from the sliding connection bar. As the glass frame moves upward, the bottom end of the limiting plate is arc-shaped, and under the guidance of the limiting plate, the top end of the glass frame is convenient to enter the interior of the U-shaped guide rail, and the card joint is embedded in the interior of the card slot, and the spring is compressed, so that the glass frame can be carded and self-locked, so that the glass frame is not easy to shake when moving, and at the same time, the sliding connection bar can be used to move along the length direction of the U-shaped guide rail, so that when the glass frame drives the insulating glass to move, it is not easy for the structure to get stuck.

[0013] Preferably, there are two sliding connection bars, and the two sliding connection bars are symmetrically installed along the supporting square column, and the bottom end of the limiting piece is arc-shaped.

[0014] Preferably, the side of the clamping joint away from the connecting tube is an arc-shaped surface, and the clamping joint and the spring are installed at the same height, so that the spring can apply elastic force to the clamping joint.

[0015] Preferably, a conveying mechanism is installed at the supporting leg position at the bottom of the gantry, and the conveying mechanism includes a frame, the frame is installed at the supporting leg position at the bottom of the gantry, an active roller is rotatably installed on the top of the frame and away from the supporting leg at the bottom of the gantry, a driven roller is rotatably installed on the top of the frame and away from the active roller, a servo motor is installed on the outside of the frame and close to the active roller, the output shaft of the servo motor and the active roller are driven and installed through a belt transmission assembly, a conveyor belt is installed between the middle of the outer cylindrical surface of the active roller and the middle of the outer cylindrical surface of the driven roller, a material receiving assembly is installed on the outside of the frame and close to the driven roller, and an anti-slip pad is installed on the side of the outer side of the conveyor belt.

[0016] Preferably, the driven roller and the driving roller are installed at the same height, and the anti-slip pads are evenly distributed on the sides of the outer side of the conveyor belt.

[0017] Preferably, the material receiving assembly includes a support base and a hydraulic cylinder. The support base is installed on the outside of the frame and close to the driven roller. The hydraulic cylinder is rotatably installed on the outside of the frame and close to the support base. A material receiving frame is hinged to the top of the support base. The telescopic end of the hydraulic cylinder is hinged to the material receiving frame. A notch is formed on one side of the material receiving frame close to the conveyor belt. Buffer cushions are fixedly installed at corresponding positions on the inner walls of the material receiving frame. When the glass rack drives the insulating glass to move directly above the material receiving frame, the telescopic end of the air cylinder is extended again to lower the insulating glass, so that the insulating glass is inserted into the interior of the material receiving frame, and the insulating glass contacts the buffer cushions to achieve a buffering effect, making it difficult for the insulating glass to collide, and then the insulating glass can be smoothly received.

[0018] Preferably, there are two hydraulic cylinders, and the two hydraulic cylinders are symmetrically installed along the material receiving frame and are inclined. By contracting the output end of the hydraulic cylinder, the material receiving frame can be driven to rotate clockwise to adjust the angle, so that the insulating glass in the material receiving frame approaches the conveyor belt. Then, the servo motor is started to work. By rotating the output end of the servo motor and under the transmission connection of the belt transmission assembly, the driving roller rotates, and under the rotational support of the driven roller, the conveyor belt runs. Then, the anti-slip pads contact the insulating glass to increase the friction force, facilitating the removal of the insulating glass from the material receiving frame, and then the insulating glass can be conveyed.

[0019] After the insulating glass is removed from the material receiving frame, the output end of the hydraulic cylinder can be extended to make the material receiving frame receive a driving force and rotate counterclockwise to reset, so that the material receiving frame is in a vertical state, facilitating the next material receiving.

[0020] The present invention provides an automatic insulating glass down-feeding machine for a production line, which has the following beneficial effects:

[0021] First, for this automatic insulating glass down-feeding machine for the production line, the output end of the linear driver drives the moving trolley to move, and the entire glass rack is moved to one side away from the conveying mechanism. By extending and contracting the output end of the air cylinder, the glass rack can be driven to move downward and upward, which helps the suction cup to contact the insulating glass, and under the action of the vacuum generator, the insulating glass can be sucked, thus fixing the insulating glass and facilitating the transfer of the insulating glass.

[0022] Second, for this automatic insulating glass down-feeding machine for the production line, when the output end of the linear driver drives the moving trolley to move, the insulating glass will be driven to move together, so that the position of the insulating glass can be adjusted, which helps to move the insulating glass.

[0023] III. For the automatic glass loading machine of this insulating glass production line, when the extending end of the air cylinder contracts, the glass rack drives the insulating glass to move upward, so that the top of the insulating glass and the top of the glass rack are embedded into the inside of the U-shaped guide rail together, and the top position on the outer side of the insulating glass contacts the circular ring. Along with the movement of the insulating glass, the inverted conical hopper rotates, and combined with the evenly distributed inverted conical hoppers on the outer side of the U-shaped guide rail, the insulating glass can be supported, making the movement of the insulating glass stable.

[0024] IV. For the automatic glass loading machine of this insulating glass production line, since the circular ring is made of rubber material, when the circular ring contacts the insulating glass, it will be deformed under the extrusion force, thus realizing flexible contact, not easily damaging the insulating glass, and playing a protective role.

[0025] V. For the automatic glass loading machine of this insulating glass production line, under the guidance of the limit piece, it is convenient for the top end of the glass rack to enter the inside of the U-shaped guide rail, and the clamping joint is embedded into the inside of the clamping groove, and the spring is compressed, so that the glass rack can be clamped and self-locked, making the glass rack not easily shake during movement. At the same time, by using the sliding connection strip, it can move along the length direction of the U-shaped guide rail, so that when the glass rack drives the insulating glass to move, the situation of structural jamming is not likely to occur.

[0026] VI. For the automatic glass loading machine of this insulating glass production line, when the glass rack drives the insulating glass to move to directly above the receiving frame, the extending end of the air cylinder is extended again to lower the insulating glass, so that the insulating glass is inserted into the inside of the receiving frame, and the insulating glass contacts the buffer cushion to achieve the buffering effect, making the insulating glass not easily collide, and thus the insulating glass can be smoothly received.

[0027] VII.

Thus, the anti-slip cushion blocks contact the insulating glass to increase the friction force, facilitating the removal of the insulating glass from the receiving frame, and the insulating glass can be conveyed. After the insulating glass is removed from the receiving frame, the output end of the hydraulic cylinder is extended, so that the receiving frame receives a driving force and rotates counterclockwise to reset, making the receiving frame in a vertical state, facilitating the next receiving.

[0039] The first embodiment is as Figures 1 - 4 shown, the present invention provides a technical solution: An automatic glass sheet unloading machine for a insulating glass production line, comprising:

[0040] Gantry 1, at the middle of the top of the gantry 1, a linear actuator 2 is installed;

[0041] Pick-and-place mechanism 3, which is used to load and transfer insulating glass. The pick-and-place mechanism 3 is installed at the side of the outer side of the gantry 1;

[0042] Among them, the pick-and-place mechanism 3 includes a mobile trolley 31. The mobile trolley 31 is slidably installed at the side of the outer side of the gantry 1 and close to the linear actuator 2. The top of the mobile trolley 31 is fixedly installed with the output end of the linear actuator 2. A cylinder 32 is installed at the side of the outer side of the mobile trolley 31. The extending end of the cylinder 32 is fixedly installed with a glass rack 33. A suction cup 34 is installed on the vertical surface of the outer side of the glass rack 33. The suction cup 34 is installed on the side close to the cylinder 32. A vacuum generator 35 is installed on the side of the glass rack 33 away from the suction cup 34. The air inlet end of the vacuum generator 35 is communicated with the vacuum generator 35. A clamping groove 36 is opened at the middle of the outer side of the glass rack 33 and close to the vacuum generator 35. The clamping groove 36 is opened above the vacuum generator 35. The staff starts the linear actuator 2 to work, drives the mobile trolley 31 to move by using the output end of the linear actuator 2, drives the whole glass rack 33 to move, and starts the cylinder 32 to work. By using the extension and contraction of the extending end of the cylinder 32, the glass rack 33 can be driven to move downward and upward, which helps the suction cup 34 to contact the insulating glass, and under the action of the vacuum generator 35, the insulating glass can be sucked, so as to fix the insulating glass and facilitate the transfer of the insulating glass;

[0043] There are two cylinders 32, and the two cylinders 32 are symmetrically installed along the mobile trolley 31. There are four suction cups 34, and the four suction cups 34 are evenly distributed on the vertical surface of the outer side of the glass rack 33. When the output end of the linear actuator 2 drives the mobile trolley 31 to move, the insulating glass will be driven to move together, so that the position of the insulating glass can be adjusted, which helps to move the insulating glass.

[0044] Second embodiment, as Figures 1 - 7 shown, on the basis of the first embodiment:

[0045] Guide assembly 4, which is used to support the production of insulating glass. The guide assembly 4 is installed on the lower side of the top of the gantry 1;

[0046] Among them, the guiding component 4 includes a U-shaped guide rail 41. The opening of the U-shaped guide rail 41 faces downward, and the top of the U-shaped guide rail 41 is fixedly installed on the lower side of the top of the gantry 1. A conical hopper 42 is rotatably installed at the side of the outer side of the U-shaped guide rail 41. A circular ring 43 is fixedly installed on the conical surface of the outer side of the conical hopper 42. A clamping module 44 is installed on one side of the U-shaped guide rail 41 away from the conical hopper 42. When the extending end of the air cylinder 32 contracts, the glass frame 33 drives the insulating glass to move upward, so that the top of the insulating glass and the top of the glass frame 33 are embedded into the inside of the U-shaped guide rail 41 together, and the top position on the outer side of the insulating glass contacts the circular ring 43. Along with the movement of the insulating glass, the conical hopper 42 rotates, and combined with the fact that the conical hoppers 42 are evenly distributed on the outer side of the U-shaped guide rail 41, the insulating glass can be supported, making the movement of the insulating glass stable.

[0047] The conical hoppers 42 are evenly distributed at the side of the outer side of the U-shaped guide rail 41, and the diameter of the conical hoppers 42 gradually increases from bottom to top. Since the circular ring 43 is made of rubber material, when the circular ring 43 contacts the insulating glass, it will be deformed by the extrusion force, so that flexible contact can be achieved and the insulating glass is not easily damaged.

[0048] The clamping module 44 includes a sliding connection strip 441. The sliding connection strip 441 is slidably installed at the side of the outer side of the U-shaped guide rail 41. A supporting square column 442 is fixedly installed at the middle of the bottom of the sliding connection strip 441. A connecting cylinder 443 is fixedly installed at the position of the bottom of the sliding connection strip 441 and close to the supporting square column 442. A clamping head 444 is slidably installed at the center of the outer side of the connecting cylinder 443. The position of the clamping head 444 corresponds to the position of the clamping groove 36. A spring 445 is fixedly installed between the central axis of the outer side of the clamping head 444 and the inner wall of the connecting cylinder 443. A zigzag plate 446 is fixedly installed at the outer side of the sliding connection strip 441 and close to the bottom position. A limiting piece 447 is fixedly installed on the side of the zigzag plate 446 away from the sliding connection strip 441. As the glass frame 33 moves upward, since the bottom end of the limiting piece 447 is arc-shaped, under the guidance of the limiting piece 447, it is convenient for the top end of the glass frame 33 to enter the inside of the U-shaped guide rail 41, and the clamping head 444 is embedded into the inside of the clamping groove 36, and the spring 445 is compressed, so that the glass frame 33 can be clamped and self-locked, making the glass frame 33 not easily shake during movement. At the same time, since the sliding connection strip 441 can move along the length direction of the U-shaped guide rail 41, when the glass frame 33 drives the insulating glass to move, the situation of structural jamming is not likely to occur.

[0049] There are two sliding connection strips 441, and the two sliding connection strips 441 are symmetrically installed along the supporting square column 442. The bottom end of the limiting piece 447 is arc-shaped.

[0050] The side of the card joint 444 away from the connecting cylinder 443 is an arc surface. The card joint 444 and the spring 445 are installed at the same height, which is convenient for the spring 445 to apply an elastic force to the card joint 444.

[0051] The third embodiment is as follows Figures 1 - 9 shown, based on the first and second embodiments:

[0052] A conveying mechanism 5 is installed at the position of the support legs at the bottom of the gantry 1. The conveying mechanism 5 includes a frame 51. The frame 51 is installed at the position of the support legs at the bottom of the gantry 1. A driving roller 52 is rotatably installed at one end of the top of the frame 51 away from the support legs at the bottom of the gantry 1. A driven roller 53 is rotatably installed at one end of the top of the frame 51 away from the driving roller 52. A servo motor 54 is installed on the outer side of the frame 51 and close to the driving roller 52. The output shaft of the servo motor 54 and the driving roller 52 are installed through a belt transmission assembly. A conveyor belt 55 is installed between the middle of the outer circumferential surface of the driving roller 52 and the middle of the outer circumferential surface of the driven roller 53. A material receiving assembly 56 is installed on the outer side of the frame 51 and close to the driven roller 53. Anti-slip pads 57 are installed on the side of the outer side of the conveyor belt 55.

[0053] The driven roller 53 and the driving roller 52 are installed at the same height. The anti-slip pads 57 are evenly distributed on the side of the outer side of the conveyor belt 55.

[0054] The material receiving assembly 56 includes a support base 561 and a hydraulic cylinder 562. The support base 561 is installed on the outer side of the frame 51 and close to the driven roller 53. The hydraulic cylinder 562 is rotatably installed on the outer side of the frame 51 and close to the support base 561. A material receiving frame 563 is hinged to the top of the support base 561. The telescopic end of the hydraulic cylinder 562 and the material receiving frame 563 are hinged. A notch 564 is opened on the side of the material receiving frame 563 close to the conveyor belt 55. Buffer cushions 565 are fixedly installed at the corresponding positions on the inner wall of the material receiving frame 563. When the glass frame 33 drives the insulating glass to move directly above the material receiving frame 563, the extending end of the air cylinder 32 is extended again to lower the insulating glass, so that the insulating glass is inserted into the interior of the material receiving frame 563, and the insulating glass contacts the buffer cushions 565 to achieve a buffering effect, so that the insulating glass is not easily collided, and the insulating glass can be smoothly received.

[0055] There are two hydraulic cylinders 562, and the two hydraulic cylinders 562 are symmetrically installed along the material receiving frame 563, and the hydraulic cylinders 562 are installed obliquely. The staff starts the hydraulic cylinders 562 to work. By using the contraction of the output end of the hydraulic cylinders 562, the material receiving frame 563 can be driven to rotate clockwise to adjust the angle, so that the insulating glass in the material receiving frame 563 is close to the conveyor belt 55. Then the servo motor 54 is started to work. By using the rotation of the output end of the servo motor 54 and under the transmission connection of the belt transmission assembly, the driving roller 52 rotates, and under the rotational support of the driven roller 53, the conveyor belt 55 operates. Then, the anti-slip cushion block 57 contacts the insulating glass to increase the friction force, facilitating the removal of the insulating glass from the material receiving frame 563, and thus the insulating glass can be conveyed.

[0056] After the insulating glass is removed from the material receiving frame 563, the output end of the hydraulic cylinder 562 can be extended, so that the material receiving frame 563 receives a driving force and rotates counterclockwise to reset, making the material receiving frame 563 in a vertical state, which is convenient for receiving materials next time.

[0057] During use, the staff starts the linear actuator 2 to work. By using the output end of the linear actuator 2 to drive the moving trolley 31 to move, the entire glass rack 33 is moved to the side away from the conveying mechanism 5. Then the cylinder 32 is started to work. By using the extension of the extending end of the cylinder 32, the glass rack 33 can be driven to move downward, which helps the suction cup 34 to contact the insulating glass. Under the action of the vacuum generator 35, the insulating glass can be sucked, thus fixing the insulating glass. At this time, by using the contraction of the extending end of the cylinder 32, the insulating glass can be driven to move upward.

[0058] When the extending end of the cylinder 32 contracts, the glass rack 33 drives the insulating glass to move upward, so that the top of the insulating glass and the top of the glass rack 33 are embedded into the inside of the U-shaped guide rail 41 together, and the top position on the outside of the insulating glass contacts the circular ring 43. At the same time, since the bottom end of the limiting piece 447 is arc-shaped, under the guidance of the limiting piece 447, it is convenient for the top end of the glass rack 33 to enter the inside of the U-shaped guide rail 41, and the clamping joint 444 is embedded into the inside of the clamping groove 36, and the spring 445 is compressed, so that the glass rack 33 can be clamped and self-locked, making the glass rack 33 not easy to shake when moving.

[0059] At this time, by using the driving force of the output end of the linear actuator 2 on the moving trolley 31 again, the moving trolley 31 moves, and combined with the sliding connection strip 441, it can move along the length direction of the U-shaped guide rail 41, so that when the glass rack 33 drives the insulating glass to move, it is not easy to have the situation of structural jamming.

[0060] With the movement of the insulating glass, the inverted conical rotary bucket 42 rotates. Combining with the fact that the inverted conical rotary buckets 42 are evenly distributed outside the U-shaped guide rail 41, the insulating glass can be supported, making the movement of the insulating glass stable, and then the insulating glass can be moved towards the side close to the conveying mechanism 5.

[0061] When the glass rack 33 drives the insulating glass to move directly above the receiving frame 563, the linear driver 2 is paused at this time. The extending end of the cylinder 32 is extended again to lower the insulating glass, so that the insulating glass is inserted into the inside of the receiving frame 563, and the insulating glass contacts the buffer cushion 565 to achieve the buffering effect, making it not easy for the insulating glass to collide, and then the insulating glass can be smoothly received. At this time, the vacuum generator 35 is turned off, so that the suction cup 34 no longer sucks the glass, and the cylinder 32 is started to work again. The extending end of the cylinder 32 is contracted to lift the entire glass rack 33.

[0062] And the staff starts the hydraulic cylinder 562 to work. By contracting the output end of the hydraulic cylinder 562, the receiving frame 563 can be driven to rotate clockwise to adjust the angle, making the insulating glass in the receiving frame 563 close to the conveyor belt 55. Then the servo motor 54 is started to work. By rotating the output end of the servo motor 54 and under the transmission connection of the belt transmission assembly, the driving roller 52 rotates, and under the rotational support of the driven roller 53, the conveyor belt 55 operates. Then, through the anti-slip cushion block 57 contacting the insulating glass, the friction force is increased, facilitating the insulating glass to move out of the receiving frame 563, and then the insulating glass can be conveyed.

[0063] After the insulating glass moves out of the receiving frame 563, the output end of the hydraulic cylinder 562 can be extended, so that the receiving frame 563 receives a driving force and rotates counterclockwise to reset, making the receiving frame 563 in a vertical state, which is convenient for receiving materials next time.
