Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of glass substrate processing, in particular to air-drying and static equipment for glass substrates. Background Art

[0002] The glass substrate needs to be cleaned during the production process. After cleaning, the surface of the glass substrate has water stains or water drops, so the surface of the glass substrate needs to be dried. After drying, the glass substrate is usually moved to a larger space for static placement to provide buffer time for the glass substrate and ensure the stability of the glass substrate. Therefore, after the glass substrate is cleaned, dried, and static, the glass substrate must be transferred between each process. The stability of the glass substrate is not high after it is produced, so the stability is required to be high during the transfer process.

[0003] In the existing glass substrate processing production line, when transporting glass substrates, the glass substrates are generally placed on a horizontal transmission mechanism for transmission, and the glass substrates are picked up and transferred to the next processing station in a horizontal state between two processing steps.

The first air floating member 121 is arranged on the first frame 11 and is located between two of the first row of strips 123. The first air floating member 121 is provided with air holes in parallel. The first air floating member 121 is connected to the fan. The fan outputs airflow to the air holes. The airflow has buoyancy on the glass substrate 6, thereby reducing the friction between the glass substrate 6 and the first conveying wheel 125.

The fan connection port 221 is used to connect a fan. The airflow of the fan blows from top to bottom to the vertically placed glass substrate 6, which can not only dry quickly, but also better avoid affecting the strength of the glass substrate 6. Water stains on the surface of the glass substrate 6 flow downward and out from the liquid outlet 223.

[0039] As a supplementary explanation, the front and rear sides of the air drying box 22 are both open, so that the glass substrate 6 can be put in from the front and taken out from the rear; the liquid outlet 223 is funnel-shaped, which makes it easier for water droplets to flow out.
