Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of coated glass production, and more specifically, relates to an automatic edge sealing device for coated glass. The present invention also relates to an automatic edge sealing method for coated glass. Background Art

[0002] Coated glass is coated with one or more layers of thin films made of metal, alloy, or metal compound. This modifies the glass's optical properties, enriches its color, controls visible light transmission and UV absorption, and ultimately saves energy, regulates heat, and improves the environment. Currently, the most widely used production method is magnetron sputtering, where float glass is cleaned and then coated offline. This offline coating process allows for highly controllable properties such as light transmittance and reflectivity, resulting in consistent quality. However, unlike float glass, coated glass products are susceptible to oxidation and delamination upon contact with air or moisture due to their inherent properties. Therefore, they must be fabricated into insulating glass before use. Furthermore, coated glass has strict requirements for shipping, packaging, storage, and shelf life. Large-plate coated glass is usually larger than 2880*3660mm in size. After processing, the glass is automatically unloaded from the unloading platform to the stacker by suction cups. When the number of glass on the stacker meets the number of a package, the operator uses a crane, lifting bars, and slings to lift the complete package of glass to the packaging rack. There is an escalator and platform on the back of the packaging rack. People can climb up and cooperate with the ground staff to apply edge sealing film to the side of the glass to prevent moisture or oxidation. Edge sealing usually requires two to three people to work together. After the entire package of glass is lifted by the crane, the edge sealing film is first applied to the empty glass part in the middle of the bottom sling. After the pasting is completed, the glass is placed on the shelf, and edge blocks are placed at the four corners to prevent the edge of the glass from scratching the edge sealing film. Desiccant is placed on the top. The remaining bottom and other three sides are then packaged. Once completed, a product certificate (including information such as glass size, thickness, film type, weight, number of pieces, and processing date) is affixed directly to the edge-sealing film. The glass is then transferred to a warehouse for storage or loaded onto trucks for sale using a crane or forklift. The existing technology has the following problems: The application of edge-sealing film to large panels of coated glass relies entirely on manual labor, which is repetitive and labor-intensive. Furthermore, due to space limitations, the application is difficult and ineffective.

[0003] The prior art includes a technology titled "A method for sealing the edges of laminated glass before coating" and a publication (announcement) numbered "CN109678354 A." This technology discloses a method for sealing the edges of laminated glass before coating, comprising the following steps: applying a waterproof and high-temperature tape to the laminated glass, exhausting the end face, folding back the upper side tape, exhausting the upper side, folding back the lower side tape, and exhausting the lower side. The present invention adheres a waterproof and high-temperature tape to the end face, upper side, and lower side of the laminated glass, and folds it back to ensure that the upper and lower sides are within the clamping width of the laminated glass, and to ensure that the air in the interlayer is emptied, thereby completely eliminating the phenomenon of wind knife marks in the subsequent cleaning process. The present invention greatly improves the authenticity rate. This technology does not involve the technical problems and technical solutions of the present application. Summary of the Invention

[0022] The technical solution of the present invention is adopted, and the working principle and beneficial effects are as follows:

[0023] The automatic edge sealing device for coated glass described in the present invention is provided with a first guide rail for carrying a glass-carrying frame during structural setting, and the fixed frame of the glass-carrying frame is fixedly provided on the first guide rail, and the movable frame is movably provided on the first guide rail. The movable frame can be flexibly moved according to the size of the whole package of glass to be carried, so as to meet the load-bearing requirements. When the whole package of glass is carried, it is carried on the lifting cylinder group, and the back of the whole package of glass is supported by the side roller group to achieve angle control. When the whole package of glass is edge-sealed, it is completed by cooperating with the glass-carrying frame through the lateral moving parts. The glass-carrying frame can move horizontally and can move horizontally from one side of the whole package of glass to the other side, and the lifting frame can realize the vertical movement of the movable slider, so as to realize the movement of the coating device bracket between the upper and lower sides of the whole package of glass. When the rotating motor rotates, the driving gear meshes with the rotating gear pair, which drives the rotating gear pair to rotate, and then drives the laminating device bracket to rotate. The laminating device bracket is equipped with a film roll, a film support roller, and a die roller. The film support roller is used to fit the side of the entire package of glass, and the die roller is used to fit the side of the entire package of glass, reliably completing the edge sealing of the edge sealing film released from the film roll. When edge sealing an entire package of glass, a glass packaging area is set up near the lower sheet stacker of coated glass. When the number of glass sheets stored on the stacker is enough to form a package, a full package of glass is formed. Then, the operator uses a crane to lift the entire package of glass onto the glass carrier. The lifting cylinder group of the glass carrier can carry and lift the entire package of glass. Raising part of the lifting cylinder group can ensure that the bottom surface of the entire package of glass is reliably supported. The back of the whole package of glass is attached to the side roller group to achieve side limit bearing. After the operator controls the laminating device to start, the transverse moving part moves along the first guide rail and approaches the whole package of glass. After the laminating device moves, when it moves to the front end (left side) of the whole package of glass, the travel switch is triggered, and the transverse moving part stops moving. The moving slider of the laminating device (film laminating machine head) is raised and lowered to achieve position movement. The film pressing cylinder is activated, the film supporting roller is attached to the bottom surface of the glass, and the die roller is attached to the side of the whole package of glass, and then the film is applied and edge sealed. When edge sealing, the edge sealing action starts from the edge sealing starting position, and the bottom surface of the glass, the right side of the glass, the top surface of the glass, and the left side of the glass are sealed. During the edge sealing process of different surfaces, the laminating device bracket switches position, so that the film supporting roller switches between four states: horizontal upward, horizontal downward, horizontal left, and horizontal right, to meet the edge sealing requirements. According to the different sizes of the whole package of glass, the laminating device moves to the corresponding position and triggers the corresponding switch to achieve stop and turn. After completing the edge sealing around the whole package of glass, the laminating device (film laminating machine head) returns to the original position, the film is manually cut, and the laminating device is controlled to leave the whole package of glass. The whole package of glass with completed edge sealing is lifted away, and then another package of glass that needs edge sealing is lifted onto the glass supporting frame. The steps are repeated to perform the edge sealing operation. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0029] The following describes the embodiments with reference to the accompanying drawings to further explain in detail the specific embodiments of the present invention, such as the shapes, structures, mutual positions and connection relationships between the various components involved, the functions and working principles of the various components.

[0030] As attached Figure 1 -Attached Figure 3As shown, the present invention is an automatic edge-sealing device for coated glass. A glass carrier 22 is provided on a first guide rail 21, a lifting cylinder assembly 18 is provided at the bottom of the glass carrier 22, and a side roller assembly 16 is provided on the side of the glass carrier 22. A transverse moving component 11 is provided on a second guide rail 13, and a moving slider 24 is provided on a lifting frame 23 of the transverse moving component 11. A rotating gear pair 8 and a rotating motor 7 are mounted on a connecting bracket 25 of the moving slider 23. A driving gear 26 of the rotating motor 7 engages the rotating gear pair 8. The rotating gear pair 8 is connected to a coating device bracket 6. A film roll 1, a film supporting roller 3, and a die roller 4 are mounted on the coating device bracket 6. The die roller 4 is connected to a die cylinder 5, and the die cylinder 5 is connected to the coating device bracket 6. The above structure addresses the shortcomings of the existing technology and proposes an improved technical solution. When the structure is set up, a first guide rail 21 is set to carry the glass carrying frame 22, and the fixed frame of the glass carrying frame 22 is fixedly set on the first guide rail, and the movable frame 15 is movably set on the first guide rail 21. The movable frame 15 can be flexibly moved according to the size of the whole package of glass 20 to be carried to meet the load-bearing requirements. When the whole package of glass 20 is carried, it is carried on the lifting cylinder group 18, and the back of the whole package of glass is supported by the side roller group 16 to achieve angle control. The second guide rail 13 is used to carry the movement of the transverse moving component 11. When the whole package of glass 20 is edge-sealed, it is completed by the transverse moving component 11 in cooperation with the glass carrying frame 22. The glass carrying frame 22 can move horizontally and can move from one side of the whole package of glass 20 to the other side, and the lifting frame 23 can realize the vertical movement of the movable slider 24, so that the coating device bracket 6 can move between the upper and lower sides of the whole package of glass 20. When the rotating motor 7 rotates, the driving gear 26 engages the rotating gear pair 8, which drives the rotating gear pair 8 to rotate, and then drives the coating device bracket 6 to rotate. The coating device bracket 6 is installed with a film roll 1, a film supporting roller 3, and a die roller 4. The film supporting roller is used to fit the side of the whole package of glass 20, and the die roller 4 is used to fit the side of the whole package of glass, so as to reliably complete the edge sealing of the edge sealing film released by the film roll 1. When sealing the whole package of glass, a glass packaging area is set up near the lower sheet stacker of the coated glass. When the number of glass sheets stored on the stacker is enough for a package, a whole package of glass 20 is formed. Then the operator uses a crane to lift the whole package of glass onto the glass supporting frame 22. The lifting cylinder group 18 of the glass supporting frame 22 can carry and lift the whole package of glass 20. The partial lifting of the lifting cylinder group 18 can ensure that the bottom surface of the whole package of glass is reliably supported.The back of the whole package of glass 20 is attached to the side roller group 16 to achieve side limit bearing. After the operator controls the laminating device to start, the transverse moving part 11 moves along the first guide rail 13 and approaches the whole package of glass 20. After the laminating device moves, when it moves to the front end (left side) position of the whole package of glass, the travel switch is triggered, and the transverse moving part 11 stops moving. The moving slider 23 of the laminating device (laminating machine head) is raised and lowered to achieve position movement. The film pressing cylinder 5 is activated, the film supporting roller 3 is attached to the bottom surface of the glass, and the die roller 4 is attached to the side of the whole package of glass 20, and then the film is applied and sealed. When sealing the edge, the edge sealing action starts from the edge sealing starting position 27, and the bottom surface of the glass, the right side of the glass, the top surface of the glass, and the left side of the glass are sealed. During the edge sealing process of different surfaces, the laminating device bracket 6 switches position, so that the film supporting roller 4 switches between four states: horizontal upward, horizontal downward, horizontal left, and horizontal right, to meet the edge sealing requirements. According to the different sizes of the whole package of glass, the laminating device moves to the corresponding position and triggers the corresponding switch to achieve stop and turn. After completing the edge sealing of the entire package of glass, the laminating device (film laminating machine head) returns to its original position, the film is manually cut, and the laminating device is controlled to move away from the entire package of glass. The package of glass with completed edge sealing is then hoisted away, and another package of glass that needs edge sealing is hoisted onto the glass support frame. The steps are repeated to complete the edge sealing operation. The automatic edge sealing device for coated glass described in the present invention has a simple structure and can automatically complete the edge sealing operation of coated glass, replacing the traditional manual edge sealing process. It improves the degree of automation, efficiency, and quality, reduces labor intensity, and avoids safety accidents caused by manual edge sealing requiring high-altitude operation, thereby improving safety.

[0031] The lifting frame 23 has a lifting linear guide pair 9 on which a movable slider 23 is movably mounted. A lifting motor 10 is provided on the upper portion of the lifting frame 23. A drive chain is fitted on the gear of the lifting motor 10. The movable slider 23 is fixedly connected to the drive chain, and a lower gear is fitted on the lower portion of the drive chain.

[0032] The glass-carrying frame 22 includes a movable frame 15 and a fixed frame 14. The movable frame 15 is movably supported on the first guide rail 21 via movable wheels. A movable frame drive motor is provided on the movable frame 15, and the drive gear of the movable frame drive motor engages with the rack on the first guide rail 21. The fixed frame 14 is fixedly connected to the first guide rail 21. A lateral moving component drive motor is provided on the lateral moving component 11, and the drive gear of the lateral moving component drive motor 12 engages with the rack on the second guide rail 13. In the above structure, the movable frame 15 is movable, while the fixed frame 14 is fixed. The movable frame 15 is moved to its position on the first guide rail 21 according to the specific size of the glass to be carried, and the two frames cooperate to achieve glass carrying. The driving gear of the mobile frame driving motor engages with the rack on the first guide rail 21. When the mobile frame driving motor rotates, it drives the mobile frame to move along the first guide rail. The driving gear of the horizontal moving component driving motor engages with the rack on the second guide rail 13. When the horizontal moving component driving motor rotates, it drives the horizontal moving component to move along the second guide rail 13.

[0033] The glass-carrying frame 22 is provided with a limiting rod, on which a limiting wheel is mounted, which is movably mounted on the lower portion of the upper surface of the first I-shaped guide rail 21; the transverse moving component 11 is provided with a limiting rod, on which a limiting wheel is mounted, which is movably mounted on the lower portion of the upper surface of the second I-shaped guide rail 13. In the above structure, the glass-carrying frame 22 is limited to the first guide rail by the limiting wheel of the limiting rod, ensuring that it will not be separated from the first guide rail due to force. Similarly, the transverse moving component 11 is limited to the second guide rail by the limiting wheel of the limiting rod, ensuring that it will not be separated from the second guide rail due to force and can only move along the guide rail.

[0034] When the rotating motor 7 rotates, the driving gear 26 is configured to be able to drive the rotating gear pair 8 to rotate, thereby driving the coating device bracket 6 to rotate. When the coating device bracket 6 rotates, the coating device bracket 6 is configured to be able to switch between four states: the film supporting roller 4 is horizontally upward, horizontally downward, horizontally to the left, and horizontally to the right. In the above structure, the rotation of the rotating motor realizes the switching of the state of the coating device bracket 6. The coating device bracket 6 is in different states to meet the needs of filming and edge sealing on different sides of the entire package of glass. When the film supporting roller 4 is in the horizontal upward position, it seals the bottom surface of the glass, when it is in the horizontal left position, it seals the right side of the glass, when it is in the horizontal downward position, it seals the top surface of the glass, and when it is in the horizontal right position, it seals the left side of the glass, and completes the edge sealing of different surfaces in sequence.

[0035] The pressing cylinder 5 comprises a first pressing cylinder and a second pressing cylinder. The first pressing cylinder is connected to a first laminating roller, while the second pressing cylinder is connected to a second laminating roller. The laminating rollers 4 are perpendicular to the laminating device support 6, and the first and second laminating rollers are positioned opposite each other. With this structure, the first and second pressing cylinders can be extended and retracted to adjust the distance between the first and second laminating rollers, thereby ensuring the required pressure when laminating the side of a package of glass of varying thicknesses.

[0036] The film roll 1 is mounted on the film roll sleeve shaft 19, the film roll 1 is parallel to the laminating device bracket 6, and the film support roller 4 is parallel to the laminating device bracket 6.

[0037] The film laminating device support 6 is provided with a film guide roller 2, two of which are provided, and the two film guide rollers 2 are V-shaped. In the above structure, the two film guide rollers 2 play a reliable guiding role on the released film, ensuring that it is reliably attached to the ground and the side.

[0038] A right anti-glass-tilt pressure wheel 33 is provided on the right side of the movable frame 15 and is connected to the movable frame 15 via a telescopic cylinder. A left anti-glass-tilt pressure wheel 17 is provided on the left side of the fixed frame 14 and is connected to the fixed frame 14 via a telescopic cylinder. With this structure, when a full bag of glass is loaded, the right anti-glass-tilt pressure wheel 33 and the left anti-glass-tilt pressure wheel 17 abut against the sides of the full bag of glass from both sides, providing support and preventing it from tipping over.

[0039] The present invention also relates to an edge sealing method for an automatic edge sealing device for coated glass, which has simple steps and can automatically complete the edge sealing operation of coated glass, replacing the traditional manual edge sealing process, thereby improving the degree of automation, efficiency and quality, reducing labor intensity, and avoiding safety accidents caused by manual edge sealing requiring high-altitude operation, thereby improving safety.

When the transverse moving component 11 moves along the second guide rail 13 to the right side of the whole package of glass 20, close to the corresponding supporting roller group 16, the coating device completes the edge sealing of the glass bottom surface 28. When the cylinder group 18 is lifted, the corresponding lifting cylinder group 18 descends and leaves the bottom surface 28 of the entire package of glass 20.

S5: the coating device moves to the edge sealing starting position 27 on the left side of the entire package of glass 20 to complete the edge sealing of the entire package of glass 20.

[0041] The automatic edge sealing device and method for coating glass described in the present invention are provided with a first guide rail 21 for carrying a glass-carrying frame 22 during structural setting, and the fixed frame of the glass-carrying frame 22 is fixedly provided on the first guide rail, and the movable frame is movably provided on the first guide rail 21. The movable frame can be flexibly moved according to the size of the whole package of glass to be carried, so as to meet the load-bearing requirements. When the whole package of glass 20 is carried, it is carried on the lifting cylinder group 18, and the back of the whole package of glass is supported by the side roller group 16 to achieve angle control. When the whole package of glass 20 is edge-sealed, it is completed by the lateral moving part 11 cooperating with the glass-carrying frame 22. The glass-carrying frame 22 can move horizontally and can move from one side of the whole package of glass 20 to the other side, and the lifting frame 23 can realize the vertical movement of the movable slider 24, so as to realize the movement of the coating device bracket 6 between the upper and lower sides of the whole package of glass 20. When the rotating motor 7 rotates, the driving gear 26 engages the rotating gear pair 8, which drives the rotating gear pair 8 to rotate, and then drives the coating device bracket 6 to rotate. The coating device bracket 6 is installed with a film roll 1, a film supporting roller 3, and a die roller 4. The film supporting roller is used to fit the side of the whole package of glass 20, and the die roller 4 is used to fit the side of the whole package of glass, so as to reliably complete the edge sealing of the edge sealing film released by the film roll 1. When sealing the whole package of glass, a glass packaging area is set up near the lower sheet stacker of the coated glass. When the number of glass sheets stored on the stacker is enough for a package, a whole package of glass 20 is formed. Then the operator uses a crane to lift the whole package of glass onto the glass supporting frame 22. The lifting cylinder group 18 of the glass supporting frame 22 can carry and lift the whole package of glass 20. The partial lifting of the lifting cylinder group 18 can ensure that the bottom surface of the whole package of glass is reliably supported. The back of the whole package of glass 20 is attached to the side roller group 16 to achieve side limit bearing. After the operator controls the laminating device to start, the transverse moving part 11 moves along the first guide rail 13 and approaches the whole package of glass 20. After the laminating device moves, when it moves to the front end (left side) position of the whole package of glass, the travel switch is triggered, and the transverse moving part 11 stops moving. The moving slider 23 of the laminating device (laminating machine head) is raised and lowered to achieve position movement. The film pressing cylinder 5 is activated, the film supporting roller 3 is attached to the bottom surface of the glass, and the die roller 4 is attached to the side of the whole package of glass 20, and then the film is applied and sealed. When sealing the edge, the edge sealing action starts from the edge sealing starting position 27, and the bottom surface of the glass, the right side of the glass, the top surface of the glass, and the left side of the glass are sealed. During the edge sealing process of different surfaces, the laminating device bracket 6 switches position, so that the film supporting roller 4 switches between four states: horizontal upward, horizontal downward, horizontal left, and horizontal right, to meet the edge sealing requirements. According to the different sizes of the whole package of glass, the laminating device moves to the corresponding position and triggers the corresponding switch to achieve stop and turn. After completing the edge sealing around the whole package of glass, the laminating device (film laminating machine head) returns to the original position, the film is manually cut, and the laminating device is controlled to leave the whole package of glass. The whole package of glass with completed edge sealing is lifted away, and then another package of glass that needs edge sealing is lifted onto the glass supporting frame 22. The steps are repeated to complete the glass edge sealing operation.
