Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to a glass intelligent suspension conveying system technology, and in particular to a glass unloading mechanism for glass conveying. Background Art

[0002] During the processing and production of glass, it needs to go through multiple steps, including the unloading of glass. The finished glass can be transferred from the production line to the glass rack through the glass unloading mechanism, thereby eliminating the process of manual handling of the finished glass. The following is the composition and characteristics of the unloading mechanism.

[0003] Basic composition of the glass unloading mechanism: The glass unloading mechanism usually includes a support frame, a conveying device, a lifting device, a flipping device and other parts. These parts work together to achieve smooth conveying, positioning and flipping of the glass. Intelligent automation technology: The glass unloading mechanism mostly adopts automation technology, and realizes the precise conveying, positioning and automatic unloading of glass plates through the cooperation of motors, sensors and control systems. Safety: The glass unloading mechanism focuses on safety in design, and ensures the safety of operators during operation through reasonable mechanical structure and electrical control. For example, a vacuum suction cup is used to stably grasp and move the glass to reduce the risk of breakage and personal injury. Application field: The glass unloading mechanism is widely used in the glass deep processing industry, especially in production lines such as float glass, tempered glass, and insulating glass, and plays an important role in improving production efficiency and product quality. Development trend: With the continuous development of intelligent manufacturing and automation technology, the glass unloading mechanism is developing in a more intelligent, efficient and safer direction. In the future, these mechanisms may integrate more sensors and intelligent algorithms to achieve more precise control and optimization.

[0004] However, the shape of glass is usually rectangular or slender. When grabbing glass, vacuum suction cups are usually used. The vacuum suction cups are arranged in a rectangular shape on the installation frame. When adsorbing rectangular glass, all vacuum suction cups adsorb and fix the glass. However, when adsorbing slender glass, only the vacuum suction cups on the edge sides adsorb and fix the glass, resulting in a relatively single fixing point for the glass. As a result, when the glass is not fixed and is hoisted, it is easy to cause the glass to bend and be damaged under the action of gravity and internal stress, resulting in lower safety during glass transportation.

[0019] The following is combined with Figure 1-7 This application is described in further detail.

[0020] The embodiment of the present application discloses a glass unloading mechanism for glass transportation. Figure 1 The glass lower sheet mechanism for glass conveying includes two portal frames 1 and a sliding guide rail 2 arranged between the two portal frames 1. The sliding guide rail 2 is slidably arranged on the portal frames 1. In the embodiment of the present application, the sliding guide rail 2 is horizontally arranged across the two portal frames 1. Further, a driving wheel and a driving motor are arranged on the surface of the sliding rail supported on the portal frames 1. The driving motor is fixedly arranged on the sliding guide rail 2, and the driving wheel is coaxially arranged on the driving motor; further, a lifting column 3 is arranged on the sliding guide rail 2, and a driving motor and a driving wheel are configured on the lifting column 3. The position of the lifting column 3 is adjusted by the driving motor and the driving wheel; further, the lifting column 3 is perpendicular to the sliding guide rail 2 and faces the ground. The lifting column 3 is a telescopic structure, and the lifting column 3 is driven to rise and fall by a hydraulic cylinder, a pneumatic cylinder or an electric push rod.

[0021] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 In the embodiment of the present application, a mounting plate 4 is provided at the end of the lifting column 3, and the mounting plate 4 is hinged at the end of the lifting column 3, and the angle between the mounting plate 4 and the lifting column 3 is adjusted by adjusting the motor 5, so that the mounting plate 4 is parallel to the glass to be transported. Moreover, the position adjustment of the sliding guide rail 2 and the lifting column 3, the length adjustment of the lifting column 3 and the angle adjustment of the mounting plate 4 are all controlled by sensors, controllers and computers, so as to facilitate the intelligent suspension and transportation of the glass.

[0023] When unloading or transferring glass, the sliding guide rail 2 and the lifting column 3 move in the door frame 1. The sliding guide rail 2 and the door frame 1 are intelligently adjusted in position through sensors and controllers, so that the mounting plate 4 drives the fixing rod 6 and the vacuum suction cup 7 to approach the glass. For rectangular glass, the fixing rod 6 is arranged in a polygonal shape under the action of the adjustment device 8. After the fixing rod 6 is arranged in a polygonal shape, the position of the mounting plate 4 and the fixing rod 6 is adjusted by the sensor and controller so that the center of gravity of the polygon is coaxial with the rectangular glass. Then the vacuum suction cup 7 is adsorbed on the glass to fix the glass. Then, the sliding guide rail 2 and the lifting column 3 drive the mounting plate 4 to drive the glass to the next processing position. Because the vacuum suction cups 7 are also arranged in a polygonal shape under the action of the fixing rods 6 and are coaxial with the rectangle, all the vacuum suction cups 7 can adsorb the glass in the largest range, thereby increasing the adsorption and fixing effect of the glass, thereby improving the safety of glass transportation; when hoisting long strips of glass, the adjusting device 8 acts on the fixing rods 6 to make multiple fixing rods 6 arranged in a straight line. When the fixing rods 6 are arranged in a straight line, the vacuum suction cups 7 are arranged in a straight line, which is convenient for adsorbing and fixing the long strips of glass.

When the first driving member drives the fixing rods 6 on both sides and the fixing rod 6 in the middle to be located in the same straight line, the first fixing member fixes the three fixing rods 6 so that the three fixing rods 6 are located in the same straight line; when adjusting the arrangement shape and angle of the fixing rods 6, the first driving member drives the fixing rods 6 on both sides to rotate, and the fixing rods 6 on both sides rotate toward each other to form a triangular arrangement, which is simple and convenient to operate; when adjusting to a long strip shape, the first driving member drives the fixing rods 6 on both sides to rotate away from each other, so that the three fixing rods 6 are coaxial, and then the fixing rods 6 are fixed by the first fixing member, which is convenient for fixing the fixing rods 6, so that the position of the vacuum suction cup 7 is fixed, which is convenient for adsorbing the glass.

[0025] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 3 In other embodiments of the present application, the number of fixing rods 6 may be four, five, six or more, forming a polygonal or straight line shape, which is convenient for adsorbing rectangular glass or long strip glass.

[0026] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 3In the embodiment of the present application, the cross-section of the fixed rod 6 is rectangular and long, and an arc-shaped mounting opening is opened on the vertical edge of the fixed rod 6. The arc-shaped mounting opening is rotatably provided with a hinge shaft 9, and the hinge shaft 9 is perpendicular to the mounting plate 4. The vertical edge of the fixed rod 6 is fixedly provided on the hinge shaft 9, and the first driving member includes a worm wheel 81, a worm 82 and a first servo motor 83. The worm wheel 81 is sleeved on the hinge shaft 9, and the worm 82 is rotatably provided on the fixed rod 6 in the middle. The worm wheel 81 and the worm 82 are meshed with each other, and the first servo motor 83 is fixedly provided on the fixed rod 6 in the middle, and the worm wheel The rod 82 is coaxially arranged on the output shaft of the first servo motor 83; when the position and angle of the fixed rod 6 are adjusted, the first servo motor 83 is started, and the first servo motor 83 drives the worm 82 to rotate, the rotation of the worm 82 drives the worm wheel 81 to rotate, the rotation of the worm wheel 81 drives the hinge shaft 9 to rotate, and the hinge shaft 9 drives the fixed rods 6 on both sides to rotate, which is simple and convenient to operate; and the transmission of the worm wheel 81 and the worm 82 has a self-locking property, which makes it easy to fix the fixed rod 6 at the desired angle, so that the fixed rod 6 is arranged in a polygonal shape, which is convenient for adsorption and fixation of the glass.

[0027] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 3 In the embodiment of the present application, the first fixing member includes a plug-in rod 84 slidably arranged on the end face of the middle fixing rod 6, the plug-in rod 84 slides along the axial direction of the fixing rod 6, and the end faces of the fixing rod 6 on both sides are provided with plug-in grooves 85 for the plug-in rod 84 to be plugged in. The fixing rod 6 also includes an electric push rod arranged in the middle fixing rod 6, and the plug-in rod 84 is coaxially arranged on the output shaft of the electric push rod; when the fixing rods 6 are arranged in a straight line, the electric push rod is started, the electric push rod drives the plug-in rod 84 to slide, and the plug-in rod 84 slides into the plug-in groove 85, and the fixing rods 6 on both sides are fixed, and the angle of the fixing rod 6 is fixed. At the same time, the worm gear 81 and the worm 82 fix the angle of the fixing rod 6, so that the fixing rod 6 is in a straight line state; when the fixing rod 6 needs to be rotated, the electric push rod is first started, and the electric push rod drives the plug-in rod 84 to move back into the fixing rod 6, so that the plug-in rod 84 is separated from the plug-in groove 85, and then the first servo motor 83 is started to drive the fixing rod 6 to rotate.

[0028] Reference Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5When the fixing rods 6 on both sides are arranged in a triangle with the fixing rod 6 in the middle, the fixing rods 6 on both sides are in a cantilever state, resulting in a relatively general stability of the fixing rods 6. Therefore, in the embodiment of the present application, in order to improve the stability of the fixing rods 6, a hanging rod 10 is provided on the mounting plate 4, and the hanging rod 10 is fixedly arranged on the mounting plate 4, the fixing rod 6 in the middle is arranged on the hanging rod 10, and the middle part of the fixing rod 6 is arranged on the mounting plate 4. The fixing rods 6 on both sides rotate toward the hanging rod 10, and when they are arranged in a triangle, the ends of the fixing rods 6 on both sides are located directly below the hanging rod 10. The lower sheet mechanism also includes a second fixing member, which is used to fix the ends of the fixing rods 6 to the bottom of the hanging rod 10 after the fixing rods 6 on both sides are located directly below the hanging rod 10. The second fixing member includes a hanging T-block 11 arranged on the top surface of the fixing rod 6 and a hanging T-slot 12 opened on the side of the hanging rod 10. The hanging T-block 11 is clamped in the hanging T-slot 12. The hanging T-slot 12 is arc-shaped and allows the hanging T-block 11 to move in the hanging T-slot 12.

[0029] When the fixed rods 6 on both sides rotate toward the hanging rod 10, the fixed rods 6 drive the hanging T-block 11 to approach the hanging rod 10, and the hanging T-block 11 enters the hanging rod 10 through the hanging T-slot 12 and is hung on the hanging rod 10, thereby fixing the fixed rods 6 on both sides on the hanging rod 10, thereby improving the stability of the fixed rod 6, thereby improving the stability and safety of the fixed rod 6 in conveying glass; further, the curvature of the hanging T-slot 12 is consistent with the curvature of the fixed rod 6 rotating along the hinge shaft 9, so that the hanging T-block 11 is convenient to move along the hanging T-slot 12 and be hung on the hanging rod 10, and the operation is simple and convenient.

[0030] Reference Figure 4 and Figure 5 In the implementation of the present application, when the fixing rods 6 are arranged in a triangle, the triangle and the mounting plate 4 are in a non-coaxial state. Under the action of the gravity of the glass, the fixing rods 6 and the mounting plate 4 are easily separated. Therefore, the fixing rods 6 located in the middle are perpendicular to the hanging rods 10, and the fixing rods 6 are slidably arranged on the hanging rods 10. The fixing rods 6 slide along the length direction of the hanging rods 10. A straight notch 13 is opened in the hanging rods 10, and the straight notch 13 is parallel to the length direction of the hanging rods 10. The hanging T-slot 12 is connected with the straight notch 13. The lower sheet mechanism also includes a second driving member. The second driving member is used to drive the middle fixed rod 6 to slide along the suspension rod 10 after the three fixed rods 6 are arranged in a triangle, so that the center of gravity of the fixed rods 6 arranged in a triangle is coaxial with the lifting column 3. A T-shaped block 14 is provided on the middle fixed rod 6, and a T-shaped slot 15 for the T-shaped block 14 to slide is opened on the suspension rod 10. The T-shaped slot 15 is arranged along the length direction of the suspension rod 10. The second driving member includes a rotating motor 16 arranged in the T-shaped slot 15, and a lead screw 17 is provided on the output shaft of the rotating motor 16. The T-shaped block 14 is threadedly connected to the lead screw 17.

[0031] After the fixing rods 6 are arranged in a triangle and the fixing rods 6 on both sides are suspended on the suspension rod 10 through the suspension T block 11 and the suspension T slot 12, the rotating motor 16 is started, and the rotating motor 16 drives the lead screw 17 to rotate, and the rotation of the lead screw 17 drives the T-shaped block 14 to slide, so that the fixing rod 6 is coaxial with the mounting plate 4, and the glass is coaxial with the lifting column 3 after adsorption; when the rotating motor 16 drives the lead screw 17 to drive the middle fixing rod 6 to slide, the ends of the fixing rods 6 on both sides slide along the suspension rod 10, and at this time, the suspension T block 11 slides along the straight notch 13, so that the fixing rods 6 arranged in a triangle slide to the mounting plate 4 to be coaxial.

[0032] In the embodiment of the present application, the fixing rod 6 is cantilevered on the hanging rod 10. When the glass is fixed on the fixing rod 6 by the vacuum suction cup 7, the load on the hanging rod 10 is relatively large. Therefore, in order to improve the stability of the hanging rod 10, a plurality of stabilizing rods are arranged on the mounting plate 4. The stabilizing rods are fixed on the mounting plate 4 and are located on both sides of the hanging rod 10. Furthermore, the side edges of the hanging rod 10 are fixed on the ends of the stabilizing rods.

[0033] Reference Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 In order to further improve the stability of the triangular arrangement of the fixing rods 6, in the embodiment of the present application, a transverse support plate 18 is provided on the side of the fixing rod 6 located in the middle, and the transverse support plate 18 is fixedly arranged on the side of the fixing rod 6. Transverse support grooves 19 are provided on the sides of the fixing rods 6 located on both sides. The transverse support grooves 19 are opened on the sides of the fixing rods 6, and the transverse support grooves 19 are opened along the length direction of the fixing rods 6. When the fixing rods 6 are arranged in a triangle, the transverse support plates 18 are inserted into the transverse support grooves 19 to support the fixing rods 6 on both sides; when the fixing rods 6 on both sides are rotated toward the suspension rod 10 to be spliced ​​into a triangle, the transverse support plates 18 are inserted into the transverse support grooves 19 to support the fixing rods 6 on both sides, thereby further improving the stability of the fixing rods 6 after splicing.

[0034] Reference Figure 6 and Figure 7, after the vacuum suction cup 7 adsorbs the glass, because the glass surface is in an uneven state and there are many small grooves on the glass surface, when the vacuum suction cup 7 adsorbs the glass, due to the uneven state of the glass and the presence of many small grooves, it is easy for the vacuum suction cup 7 to be connected to the atmospheric environment, resulting in a relatively general adsorption effect of the vacuum suction cup 7 on the glass; at the same time, because there are many tiny gaps in the adsorption force of the vacuum suction cup 7, under the action of the tiny gaps, it is easy for air to enter the vacuum suction cup 7 through the gaps, resulting in a relatively general adsorption effect of the vacuum suction cup 7. Therefore, in the embodiment of the present application, a water storage box 20 is provided on the fixing rod 6, and a plurality of conveying Tube 21, the water storage box 20 is located on the side of the fixing rod 6 and away from the horizontal support groove 19, the vacuum suction cup 7 includes a connecting column 71 and an open cover 72, the open cover 72 and the connecting column 71 are integrally formed, the open cover 72 is used to adsorb glass, the connecting column 71 is fixedly set on the fixing rod 6, the connecting column 71 is hollow, the delivery pipe 21 is connected with the inner cavity 22 of the connecting column 71, the delivery pipe 21 transports the water in the water storage box 20 to the open cover 72, and increases the fixing effect of the vacuum suction cup 7 and the glass, the lower piece mechanism also includes an opening and closing member 23, the opening and closing member 23 is used to connect the delivery pipe 21 and the open cover 72 when the vacuum suction cup 7 adsorbs the glass, so that water enters the open cover 72.

[0035] When the vacuum suction cup 7 adsorbs the glass, the water delivery function of the delivery pipe 21 is opened through the opening and closing member 23, and the water in the water storage box 20 is transported to the connecting column 71 through the delivery pipe 21, and the water drops on the glass through the connecting column 71. At this time, when the open cover 72 adsorbs the glass, the water will fill the tiny gaps on the surface of the open cover 72, making its surface smoother. In this way, the water forms a sealing layer between the open cover 72 and the adsorbed object, preventing the outside air from entering the open cover 72, thereby enhancing the sealing of the vacuum suction cup 7, and further improving the adsorption force of the vacuum suction cup 7 on the glass; further, the water droplets can temporarily reduce the surface tension of the material of the open cover 72, making the contact between it and the adsorbed object closer. This close contact helps to maintain the pressure difference between the inside and outside of the open cover 72, thereby enhancing the adsorption force; at the same time, the working principle of the vacuum suction cup 7 is to use the pressure difference between the inside and outside for adsorption. When the air in the vacuum suction cup 7 is discharged and a vacuum state is formed, the external atmospheric pressure will press the vacuum suction cup 7 on the surface of the object. The moisture acts as a seal between the vacuum suction cup 7 and the adsorbed object, preventing the entry of external air, thereby maintaining the pressure difference between the inside and outside of the vacuum suction cup 7 and enhancing the adsorption force.

[0036] Reference Figure 6 and Figure 7In the embodiment of the present application, the opening and closing member 23 includes an opening and closing column 231 slidably arranged in the inner cavity 22 of the connecting column 71. The opening and closing column 231 is made of rubber. An L-shaped channel 232 is opened in the opening and closing column 231. One port of the L-shaped channel 232 is located on the side of the opening and closing column 231, and the other port is located at the bottom of the opening and closing column 231. A plurality of lateral channels 233 are opened at the bottom of the opening and closing column 231. The cross section of the lateral channel 233 is arc-shaped and is connected to the L-shaped channel 232. The initial position of the opening and closing column 231 is In the open cover 72; when the vacuum suction cup 7 absorbs the glass, the vacuum suction cup 7 drives the opening and closing column 231 to move toward the inner cavity 22 of the connecting column 71, so that the L-shaped channel 232 is connected with the delivery pipe 21, and the water in the delivery pipe 21 passes through the L-shaped channel 232 and is discharged from the lateral channel 233 to the glass, and the open cover 72 compresses the water droplets and absorbs them on the glass; the inner cavity 22 of the connecting column 71 is provided with a driving spring 234, and the driving spring 234 drives the opening and closing column 231 to have a movement tendency away from the bottom of the inner cavity 22.

[0037] Reference Figure 6 and Figure 7 When the vacuum suction cup 7 is adsorbed on the glass, the vacuum suction cup 7 first contacts the glass, and then the vacuum pump is started. The vacuum pump extracts the air in the open mouth 72. At this time, the open mouth 72 contracts toward the glass and drives the opening and closing column 231 to move toward the cavity. When the L-shaped channel 232 is connected with the delivery pipe 21, the water in the water storage box 20 is delivered to the L-shaped channel 232 through the delivery pipe 21. At this time, because the opening and closing column 231 is pressed against the glass, the water flows to the glass through the lateral channel 233, and the vacuum pump continues to The air in the open mouth 72 is absorbed and adsorbed on the glass. At this time, water is evenly pressed between the open mouth 72 and the glass. When the L-shaped channel 232 and the delivery pipe 21 are offset, the delivery pipe 21 is closed. When the vacuum suction cup 7 transfers the glass to the desired position, the vacuum pump presses air into the open mouth 72 to separate the open mouth 72 from the glass. At this time, under the action of the driving spring 234, the opening and closing column 231 is driven to move back into the open mouth 72, and the delivery pipe 21 is closed again.

[0038] The implementation principle of a glass unloading mechanism for glass conveying in the embodiment of the present application is as follows: When unloading or transferring glass, the sliding guide rail 2 and the lifting column 3 move in the door frame 1. The sliding guide rail 2 and the door frame 1 are intelligently adjusted in position through sensors and controllers, so that the mounting plate 4 drives the fixing rod 6 and the vacuum suction cup 7 to approach the glass. For rectangular glass, the fixing rod 6 is arranged in a polygonal shape under the action of the adjustment device 8. After the fixing rod 6 is arranged in a polygonal shape, the position of the mounting plate 4 and the fixing rod 6 is adjusted by the sensor and controller so that the center of gravity of the polygon is coaxial with the rectangular glass. Then the vacuum suction cup 7 is adsorbed on the glass to fix the glass. Then, the sliding guide rail 2 and the lifting column 3 drive the mounting plate 4 to drive the glass to the next processing position. Because the vacuum suction cups 7 are also arranged in a polygonal shape under the action of the fixing rods 6 and are coaxial with the rectangle, all the vacuum suction cups 7 can adsorb the glass in the largest range, thereby increasing the adsorption and fixing effect of the glass, thereby improving the safety of glass transportation; when hoisting long strips of glass, the adjusting device 8 acts on the fixing rods 6 to make multiple fixing rods 6 arranged in a straight line. When the fixing rods 6 are arranged in a straight line, the vacuum suction cups 7 are arranged in a straight line, which is convenient for adsorbing and fixing the long strips of glass. After the vacuum suction cups 7 are arranged in a straight line, the fixing point positions of the vacuum suction cups 7 and the long strips of glass are increased, and the fixing range of the long strips of glass is increased, thereby improving the safety of conveying the long strips of glass.

[0039] The above are all preferred embodiments of the present application, and the protection scope of the present application is not limited thereto. Therefore, any equivalent changes made according to the structure, shape, and principle of the present application should be included in the protection scope of the present application.
