[0043] The present application is further described below in detail through specific embodiments in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.
[0044] In the description of this application: unless otherwise specified, the meaning of "plurality" is two or more. The terms "first", "second", "third", etc. in this application are intended to distinguish the objects referred to, and do not have special meanings in terms of technical connotations (for example, they should not be understood as emphasizing the importance or order, etc.). Expressions such as "including", "comprising", "having", etc. also mean "not limited to" (certain units, components, materials, steps, etc.).
[0045] The terms such as "upper", "lower", "left", "right", "middle", etc. cited in this application are usually used to indicate the general relative position relationship for the purpose of intuitive understanding by referring to the drawings, and are not absolute limitations on the position relationship in the actual product.
[0046] A vertical automatic film unloader, referring to Figure 1-Figure 13 , comprising a base 1 and a back plate 2 mounted on the base 1, the back plate 2 being used to support the insulating glass. The base 1 and the back of the back plate 2 are connected by a plurality of tie rods 3. Before installation, the inclination of the back plate 2 can be adjusted according to the placement position of the glass storage rack and the production line of the insulating glass.
[0047] A column 4, a lifting slide 5 and a lifting drive mechanism are installed on the base 1. The column 4 is vertically fixed on the base 1, the lifting slide 5 is slidably connected to one side of the column 4, and the lifting drive mechanism is installed on the column 4 for driving the lifting slide 5 to rise and fall.
[0048] Specifically, the lifting drive mechanism includes a driving synchronous pulley 6, a driven synchronous pulley 7 and a synchronous belt. Correspondingly, a servo motor for driving the driving synchronous pulley 6 to rotate is provided on the column 4. The driving synchronous pulley 6 and the driven synchronous pulley 7 are respectively fixedly mounted on the top and bottom of the column 4, and the axes of the driving synchronous pulley 6 and the driven synchronous pulley 7 are both horizontal and arranged in the front-to-back direction. The synchronous belt is wound around the driving synchronous pulley 6 and the driven synchronous pulley 7, and moves in the vertical direction driven by the driving synchronous pulley 6.
[0049] The lifting slide plate 5 is fixedly connected with the synchronous belt and moves synchronously with the synchronous belt. Correspondingly, a lifting guide rail 8 is installed on the surface of the column 4 along the vertical direction, and the lifting slide plate 5 matches the lifting guide rail 8.
[0050] In order to prevent the lifting slide 5 from detaching from the lifting guide rail 8, an upper limit block 9 and a lower limit block 10 are respectively provided on the upper and lower ends of the column 4 relative to the lifting guide rail 8, and the upper limit block 9 and the lower limit block 10 are respectively used to limit the lifting slide 5 from rising and falling.
[0051] Furthermore, a front-to-back movement driving mechanism and a crossbeam 11 are installed on the lifting slide 5. The crossbeam 11 is slidably connected to the lifting slide 5, and a transverse guide rail 12 adapted to the crossbeam 11 is provided on the surface of the lifting slide 5, and the transverse guide rail 12 is horizontal and arranged in the front-to-back direction. The front-to-back movement driving mechanism is used to drive the crossbeam 11 to slide relative to the lifting slide 5 along the guide rail.
[0052] Specifically, the forward and backward movement driving mechanism includes a driving gear 13 and a rack 14. A horizontal mounting plate 15 is fixed on the lifting slide 5, and the driving gear 13 is rotatably connected to the mounting plate 15 with a vertical axis. Correspondingly, a servo motor for driving the driving gear 13 is fixed on the mounting plate 15. The rack 14 is fixedly mounted on the bottom of the beam 11, and the rack 14 is meshed with the driving gear 13. When the driving gear 13 rotates, the rack 14 can drive the beam 11 to move forward and backward.
[0053] In order to limit the moving range of the beam 11, a transverse limit block 16 for limiting the movement of the beam 11 is fixed on the side of the beam 11 facing the lifting slide 5. When the beam 11 moves to the point where the transverse limit block 16 contacts the lifting slide 5, the transverse limit block 16 can prevent the beam 11 from continuing to move.
[0054] In order to protect the equipment and operators, a protective net 17 is fixed to the rear of the base 1. The position of the protective net 17 corresponds to the position of the crossbeam 11, so that when the crossbeam 11 moves forward and backward, the rear end of the crossbeam 11 can always be inside the protective net 17 instead of being directly exposed to the outside.
[0055] A suction cup mechanism for adsorbing and fixing insulating glass is installed at the front end of the cross beam 11. Specifically, the suction cup mechanism includes a suction cup holder 18 and a plurality of suction cups 19. The suction cup holder 18 is installed on the cross beam 11, the suction cups 19 are fixed on the front surface of the suction cup holder 18, and a vacuum pump for controlling the suction cups 19 is correspondingly installed on the back surface of the suction cup holder 18.
[0056] In this application, the suction cup holder 18 has a "plus" shape structure. A through hole 20 adapted to the suction cup holder 18 is formed on the back plate 2. When the suction cup holder 18 moves back and forth with the cross beam 11, the suction cup holder 18 can extend out in front of the back plate 2 to adsorb or place the insulating glass; the suction cup holder 18 can also move backward to be flush with the surface of the back plate 2, so as to place the insulating glass at the back plate 2.
[0057] In the embodiment of this application, the lip of the suction cup 19 is soft and the adsorption depth is increased compared with that of ordinary suction cups to meet the problems that different users have differences in the glass storage rack and the glass stacking angles are not completely unified. Because in actual work, it is impossible to modify the R angle formed by the suction cup holder 18 for each glass storage rack. At this time, the compressibility of the suction cup 19 can be used to eliminate the stacking error caused in actual work.
[0058] Specifically, the end diameter of the suction cup 19 is 125 mm. The lip thickness gradually decreases from the back to the front, the thickness at the back end is 3 mm, and the thickness at the front end is 2 mm. The overall thickness of the suction cup 19 is 37 mm, and the thickness of the fixed part except the lip is 24 mm.
[0059] A supporting member 21 and a moving driving member 22 are installed at the bottom of the suction cup holder 18. The supporting member 21 is in the shape of two support rods and is used to support the insulating glass fixed on the suction cups 19. The moving driving members 22 are driving cylinders in the front-back direction and along the height direction of the suction cup holder 18 respectively, and are used to drive the supporting member 21 to extend downward and forward to approach or move away from the insulating glass.
[0060] In the specific implementation process, first retract the supporting member 21 to a position behind the surface of the suction cup 19. After the suction cup 19 completes the adsorption and fixation of the insulating glass, then use the moving driving member 22 to drive the supporting member 21 to extend downward and then move forward until the supporting member 21 moves below the insulating glass. At this time, drive the supporting member 21 to move upward until it contacts the insulating glass, so as to support the insulating glass. On the one hand, it can play a role in sharing the force, and on the other hand, it can also prevent the situation of falling. After the insulating glass is transported to the glass storage rack, the moving driving member 22 drives the supporting member 21 to move downward and backward away from the insulating glass to facilitate the next sheet operation.
[0061] Since the angles of the glass storage racks of different users are different, the suction cup frame 18 is rotatably connected to the front end of the beam 11, and correspondingly, a rotary servo electric cylinder 23 is fixed to the top of the front end of the beam 11. The driving end of the rotary servo electric cylinder 23 is hinged to the back of the suction cup frame 18, and is used to drive the suction cup frame 18 to rotate with the connection axis with the beam 11 as the rotation axis, thereby completing the adjustment of the R angle. In the embodiment of the present application, the rotation range of the suction cup frame 18 is between -7° and 7° relative to the vertical plane.
[0062] The back plate 2 is also equipped with a left and right transfer mechanism and an adjustment mechanism. The left and right transfer mechanism is used to transfer the insulating glass in the left and right directions, and the adjustment mechanism is used to adjust the distance between the left and right transfer mechanism and the back plate 2.
[0063] A horizontal plate 24 is installed at the bottom of the front of the back plate 2, and the left and right running mechanism is arranged on the horizontal plate 24. Specifically, the left and right running mechanism includes a V-shaped block 25, a conveying chain 26 and a driving sprocket 27. The driving sprocket 27 is rotatably connected to the horizontal plate 24, and the axis is perpendicular to the surface of the back plate 2; the conveying chain 26 cooperates with the driving sprocket 27 and can move in the left and right directions under the drive of the driving sprocket 27. There are multiple V-shaped blocks 25, all of which are fixedly installed on the conveying chain 26 and arranged in sequence along the length direction of the conveying chain 26, and are used to support the insulating glass.
[0064] Two groups of left and right running mechanisms are arranged at intervals along the left and right directions, and an intermediate wheel 28 and a lifting cylinder 29 are arranged between the two groups of left and right running mechanisms. The intermediate wheel 28 is rotatably mounted on the horizontal plate 24, with its axis parallel to the axis of the driving sprocket 27, and is composed of two conical structures with opposite tips, so that the middle part of the intermediate wheel 28 forms a V-shape that matches the V-block 25, and can also be used to support the insulating glass. The lifting cylinder 29 is fixedly connected to the horizontal plate 24 and is located at the bottom of the intermediate wheel 28, and is used to drive the intermediate wheel 28 to rise and fall.
[0065] When operating medium or large insulating glass, the middle wheel 28 descends, and the gap between the two sets of left and right operating mechanisms will not affect the medium or large insulating glass. When operating small insulating glass, the middle wheel 28 needs to be driven up to be flush with the V-shaped block 25 to fill the gap between the two sets of left and right operating mechanisms to prevent the small insulating glass from falling.
[0066] Furthermore, for the operation of the insulating glass on the back plate 2, in addition to the above-mentioned left and right operation mechanism, it also includes a plurality of freely rotatable small support wheels 30 installed on the surface of the back plate 2 and the suction cup frame 18. Among them, the small support wheels 30 installed on the suction cup frame 18 can be driven by the cylinder installed on the back of the suction cup frame 18 alone, so that the small support wheels 30 can be retracted in the process of unloading to prevent the unloading from being blocked; and when loading, the small support wheels 30 are extended to assist the small support wheels 30 on the back plate 2 to support the insulating glass together, prevent the insulating glass from directly contacting the back plate 2, reduce friction, and prevent the insulating glass from being scratched.
[0067] The adjustment mechanism can be used to adjust the interval between the left and right operating mechanisms and the back plate 2. Specifically, the adjustment mechanism includes a transmission shaft 31, a ball screw 32 and a connecting block 33. The transmission shaft 31 is connected to the bottom of the back of the back plate 2 by rotation in the left-right direction, and the ball screw 32 is connected to the fixed plate 34 below the conveyor chain 26 by rotation in the front-back direction, and the ball screw 32 is arranged obliquely, with the lower end at the end away from the back plate 2. It should be noted that the inclination angle of the ball screw 32 is consistent with the inclination angle of the surface of the V-block 25. A servo motor for driving the transmission shaft 31 is fixed at one end of the cross plate 24, and the transmission connection between the transmission shaft 31 and the ball screw 32 is realized through a bevel gear pair.
[0068] A nut is provided on the ball screw 32, and the nut is fixedly connected to the connecting block 33. The bottom of the connecting block 33 contacts the fixing plate 34 and can slide relative to the fixing plate 34. The upper end of the connecting block 33 is connected to the transverse plate 24. Therefore, when the ball screw 32 rotates to drive the nut to drive the connecting block 33 to move, the connecting block 33 can drive the left and right operating mechanisms to move forward and backward through the transverse plate 24, thereby moving away from or close to the back plate 2.
[0069] In the embodiment of the present application, in order to protect the left and right operating mechanisms, a baffle 35 is fixedly installed on the front side of the connecting block 33. The baffle 35 can shield the left and right operating mechanisms at the front side, thereby protecting the equipment and operators.
[0070] All driving components on the device are controlled by a central control panel. When in use, the thickness parameters of the insulating glass to be operated are manually input, and the position information of the glass storage rack is adjusted. The servo motor of the control transmission shaft 31 is started first, and the position of the left and right operating mechanisms is adjusted by the ball screw 32. Other driving components then work according to the set program to complete the operation of the insulating glass in sequence. In the embodiment of the present application, the driver program of the driving component belongs to the prior art and can be modified according to the actual situation, so it will not be described here.
[0071] The implementation principle of the embodiment of the present application is as follows: first adjust the position of the device so that the suction cup frame 18 faces the glass storage rack. According to the thickness of the glass, adjust the position of the left and right operating mechanism relative to the back plate 2: the ball screw 32 rotates, driving the left and right operating mechanism to move forward and backward through the connecting block 33 and the cross plate 24, and adjusting the distance between the V-shaped block 25 and the back plate 2, so that the insulating glass can be placed on the back plate 2. Just above the V-shaped block 25.
[0072] In the initial state, the suction cup frame 18 is in the through hole 20 on the back plate 2, the suction cup 19 is slightly behind the insulating glass, and the small support wheel 30 on the suction cup frame 18 extends forward to be on the same plane as the small support wheel 30 on the back plate 2. At this time, the suction cup 19 has no adsorption force, and the insulating glass to be operated is placed on the left and right operating mechanisms.
[0073] During operation, the left and right operating mechanisms are started, the sprocket 27 is driven to rotate, and the V-shaped block 25 is driven to move the insulating glass to the middle of the back plate 2. The small support wheel 30 supports the insulating glass and rotates with the movement of the insulating glass. When the insulating glass moves to the middle and corresponds to the position of the suction cup frame 18, it stops moving, and then the forward and backward movement drive mechanism is started. The crossbeam 24 continues to move forward with the suction cup frame 18 to approach the insulating glass, and at the same time, the small support wheel 30 on the suction cup frame 18 retracts backward and retreats to the rear position of the suction cup 19 to stay away from the insulating glass; synchronously, the vacuum pump starts to work, so that the suction cup 19 contacts the insulating glass and gradually fits it, and a vacuum environment can be maintained between the suction cup 19 and the insulating glass to fix the insulating glass.
[0074] It should be noted that when the size of the insulating glass is small, the intermediate wheel 28 needs to be lifted to be flush with the V-shaped block 25 .
[0075] Then, the lifting mechanism drives the crossbeam 11 to move slightly upward and away from the V-block 25. After the crossbeam 11 moves forward for a certain distance, the rotating servo electric cylinder 23 adjusts the R angle of the suction cup frame 18 to make it consistent with the storage angle of the glass storage rack. Then the lifting mechanism drives the crossbeam 11 to move down and close to the glass storage rack, while the crossbeam 11 continues to move forward, moving the insulating glass toward the glass storage rack. During the movement, the moving drive member 22 drives the supporting member 21 to extend downward and forward until it contacts the bottom of the insulating glass to support it. (This action can also be performed synchronously with the action of the suction cup 19 adsorbing the insulating glass)
[0076] After being transported to the destination, the supporting member 21 is first retracted by the mobile driving member 22, and then the adsorption effect of the suction cup 19 on the insulating glass is cancelled. At this time, the small supporting wheel 30 on the suction cup frame 18 can be driven forward separately according to the situation to apply a forward thrust to the insulating glass to assist the insulating glass to fall onto the glass storage rack.
[0077] From then on, insulating glass can be automatically unloaded.
[0078] The lifting mechanism brings the beam 11 up, and the forward and backward moving drive mechanism drives the beam 11 to move backward. At the same time, the rotating servo electric cylinder 23 adjusts the R angle of the suction cup frame 18 to the initial state until the beam 11, the suction cup frame 18, the suction cup 19 and the small supporting wheel 30 are all restored to the initial position, waiting for the operation of the next insulating glass.
[0079] The technical features of the above embodiments may be arbitrarily combined (as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features). To make the description concise, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are described; these embodiments that are not explicitly written should also be considered to be within the scope of this specification.
