Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of sorting equipment technology, specifically to a four-in-one glass carrier plate size measuring and sorting device. Background Technology
[0002] During the precision manufacturing process, glass substrates (such as mobile phone cover plates, LCD substrates, touch screen panels, etc.) require comprehensive testing of multiple parameters, including key dimensions, thickness, resolution, and light transmittance, to ensure that the products meet assembly and usage requirements.
[0003] For example, a mobile phone glass inspection device with publication number CN114308700B includes a first material supply conveyor line. The first material supply conveyor line is provided with a disassembly area, a loading area, and a stacking area in sequence along the conveying direction. The bottom of the first material supply conveyor line is provided with a disassembly lifting mechanism and a stacking lifting mechanism respectively corresponding to the disassembly area and the stacking area. The station turntable mechanism includes a rotary worktable. The rotary worktable is provided with a fixture for fixing glass pieces at the corresponding station. A robot arm is used to transfer the glass pieces in the loading area to the fixture and to transfer the glass pieces on the fixture to the loading area. A positioning mechanism is arranged at the lower end of the rotary worktable and is used to adjust the position of the glass pieces on the fixture before inspection. A first inspection mechanism is arranged at the next rotary station of the positioning mechanism and is used to perform defect inspection on the glass pieces on the fixture.
[0004] However, the aforementioned testing equipment can only detect defects on the glass surface. To detect parameters such as glass thickness, size, resolution, and light transmittance, multiple testing devices are required, resulting in low testing efficiency, multiple clamping operations, and large errors.

[0032] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0033] Please see Figures 1-11This embodiment of a glass carrier plate size four-in-one measurement and sorting device includes a feeding mechanism 1, a first detection table 2, a second detection table 3, and a discharging mechanism 4 arranged sequentially. The feeding mechanism 1 is used for automatically feeding glass carrier plates, and the discharging mechanism 4 is used for automatically discharging glass carrier plates. A first detection mechanism 5 is provided on the top of the first detection table 2, which is used for detecting the thickness and size of the glass carrier plate. A second detection mechanism 6 is provided on the top of the second detection table 3, which is used for detecting the resolution and transmittance of the glass carrier plate. The first detection mechanism 5 includes a turntable conveyor mechanism 501, and several platforms 513 are fixedly connected to the edge of the turntable of the turntable conveyor mechanism 501. A size measuring frame 504 is provided on the side of the first detection table 2 facing the feeding mechanism 1. Several positioning cameras 514 are provided on the top of the turntable of the turntable conveyor mechanism 501 facing the feeding mechanism 1. The top of the rotating conveyor mechanism 501 is provided with a number of thickness detection mechanisms 515. Each thickness detection mechanism 515 includes a mounting frame 5151. A first linear module 5152 is provided on the top of the mounting frame 5151. A second linear module 5153 is provided on the moving table of the first linear module 5152. A thickness detection probe 5154 is fixedly connected to the moving table of the second linear module 5153. The second detection mechanism 6 includes a rotating conveyor mechanism 601. A rotating frame 602 is fixedly connected to the rotating table of the rotating conveyor mechanism 601. A number of rotating suction cups 603 are fixedly connected to the bottom of the outer end of the rotating frame 602. The top of the second detection platform 3 is provided with a receiving linear module 604, a resolution detector 607, a pair of transmittance detectors 608, and a pair of flipping unloading mechanisms 609. The bottom of the resolution detector 607 and the transmittance detector 608 are both provided with position adjustment mechanisms.Before testing, multiple thickness detection points are marked on the surface of the glass carrier plate in a grid pattern. During testing, the glass carrier plate to be tested is fed into the equipment by the feeding mechanism 1, and sequentially enters the first testing table 2 and the second testing table 3. When the first testing mechanism 5 at the top of the first testing table 2 performs the test, the size of the carrier plate is first detected by the dimension measuring frame 504. Then, the carrier plate is conveyed to the platform 513 of the turntable conveyor mechanism 501. At this time, the first testing mechanism 5 drives the platform 513 to rotate through the turntable conveyor mechanism 501. The glass carrier plate first moves with the platform 513 to the bottom of the positioning camera 514. The positioning camera 514 identifies the position of the glass carrier plate. Then, the turntable conveyor mechanism 501 drives the glass carrier plate to pass through multiple thickness detection mechanisms 515 in sequence. The thickness detection mechanisms 515 drive the thickness detection probe 5154 to move through the first linear module 5152 and the second linear module 5153 to perform multi-point thickness detection on the top of the carrier plate. The thickness of the different thickness detection mechanisms 515 is measured at different points. The detection probes 5154 move along different trajectories, but all pass through pre-set thickness detection points, thus achieving synchronous thickness detection of the carrier plate along different trajectories, which can improve the detection accuracy of the carrier plate. After the size and thickness detection is completed, the carrier plate is conveyed to the receiving linear module 604 at the top of the second detection mechanism 6. The second detection mechanism 6 drives the rotating suction cup 603 to pick up the carrier plate through the rotating conveyor mechanism 601 and the rotating frame 602. The carrier plate is then subjected to functional and optical detection by the resolution detector 607 and the transmittance detector 608 in sequence. During the detection, the positions of the resolution detector 607 and the transmittance detector 608 can be adjusted by the position adjustment mechanism. After the detection is completed, the flipping unloading mechanism 609 completes the unloading, and finally the unloading mechanism 4 packs the detected carrier plate into a tray for storage. Through the above steps, fully automatic integrated detection of multiple parameters such as the size, thickness, resolution, and transmittance of the glass carrier plate can be achieved, reducing manual intervention, improving detection efficiency and consistency, and improving detection accuracy.
[0034] The feeding mechanism 1 includes a first streamline 101 and a second streamline 102 arranged in parallel. A first hopper 103 is fixedly connected to the top of the feeding end of the first streamline 101. A buffer streamline 104 is arranged between the discharge end of the first streamline 101 and the inlet end of the second streamline 102. A first robotic arm 107 is arranged on the side of the buffer streamline 104. A clamping cylinder 108 is rotatably connected to the movable end of the first robotic arm 107. A pair of clamps are connected to the piston rods at both ends of the clamping cylinder 108. A claw 109 is provided on the side of the second streamline 102 away from the first streamline 101, and a second robotic arm 110 is provided on the side of the second streamline 102 away from the first streamline 101. The movable end of the second robotic arm 110 is rotatably connected to a pair of first suction cups 111. A second hopper 112 is fixedly connected to the top of the discharge end of the second streamline 102. A first baffle cylinder 105 is provided on both sides of the first hopper 103 and the second hopper 112. A first lifting mechanism 106 is vertically provided at the bottom of the first hopper 103 and the second hopper 112. During loading, the tray of the carrier plate is stored in the first hopper 103. The piston rod of the first blocking cylinder 105 extends to block the trays above the second to last one from the bottom of the hopper. At the same time, the first lifting mechanism 106 lifts upward, supporting the bottom tray and lowering it onto the conveying surface of the first streamline 101. The first streamline 101 conveys the carrier plate forward. When the tray moves to the discharge end of the first streamline 101, the first robotic arm 107 moves to the top of the tray. The clamping cylinder 108 at its movable end rotates, causing a pair of grippers 109 to open and align with the material. After the tray is clamped on both sides, the first robotic arm 107 lifts the carrier plate, rotates it a certain angle, and places it on the buffer flow line 104. At this time, the second robotic arm 110 drives the first suction cup 111 to transfer the carrier plates in the tray in pairs to the first detection mechanism 5 for detection. After the carrier plates are transferred, the first robotic arm 107 drives the gripper 109 to place the empty tray at the feeding end of the second flow line 102, so that the empty tray moves along the second flow line 102 to the second hopper 112 for recycling; thereby realizing automatic feeding of carrier plates and automatic recycling of trays.
[0035] A detection camera 511 is vertically mounted on the top of the dimension measuring frame 504, and a light source 512 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the dimension measuring frame 504. A dimension detection linear module 505 is mounted on the top edge of the first detection stage 2, located at the bottom edge of the detection camera 511. A dimension detection stage 508 is fixedly connected to the moving stage of the dimension detection linear module 505. A pair of dimension detection slots are mounted on the top of the dimension detection stage 508, and calibration plates are installed inside the dimension detection slots. A first conveying mechanism 506 is mounted on the side wall of the dimension measuring frame 504 facing the dimension detection linear module 505. A pair of second suction cups 507 are fixedly connected to the moving stage of the first conveying mechanism 506. A precision positioning stage 502 is mounted on the end of the dimension detection linear module 505 away from the dimension measuring frame 504. A pair of positioning slots 503 are opened on the top of the precision positioning stage 502. The second robotic arm 110 places the carrier plate into a pair of positioning slots 503 on the precision positioning stage 502. The shape of the positioning slots 503 matches the contour of the carrier plate. The carrier plate is pushed to a fixed position by a ramp or stop, eliminating the positional deviation caused by the robotic arm placement. At this time, the dimension detection linear module 505 moves the dimension detection stage 508 on its moving platform to the side of the precision positioning stage 502. Calibration plates are pre-placed in a pair of dimension detection slots on the top of the dimension detection stage 508. The first conveying mechanism 506 drives the second suction cup 507 to move above the precision positioning stage 502, and then causes the second suction cup 507 to rise and move, placing a pair of carrier plates into one pair of dimension detection slots of the dimension detection stage 508. The dimension detection linear module 505 moves the dimension detection stage 508 directly below the dimension measuring frame 504. The inspection camera 511 on top of the dimensional measuring frame 504 takes a downward picture, while the light source 512 at the bottom provides backlight illumination upwards, forming a clear image of the carrier plate outline. The control system compares the captured carrier plate outline dimensions with the pre-stored standard dimensions, and can also perform real-time calibration with the actual dimensions of the calibration piece, calculating the length, width, diagonal, chamfer, and other dimensional parameters of the carrier plate to determine whether they are within the tolerance range. After the measurement is completed, the dimensional inspection linear module 505 resets the dimensional inspection stage 508, and the first conveying mechanism 506 again removes the carrier plate from the dimensional inspection slot through the second suction cup 507 and places it on the empty stage 513 adjacent to the dimensional inspection stage 508 for subsequent thickness inspection. Through the above steps, high-precision visual inspection and mechanical positioning can be combined to improve the accuracy of dimensional measurement.
[0036] A second conveying mechanism 517 is connected to the side wall of the dimensional measuring frame 504 facing the second inspection table 3. A good product transfer linear module 518 is provided on the bottom side of the second conveying mechanism 517 facing the second inspection table 3. A transfer table 5181 is fixedly connected to the moving table of the good product transfer linear module 518. A third robotic arm 516 is provided at the end of the good product transfer linear module 518 away from the second conveying mechanism 517. A pair of third suction cups 5161 are rotatably connected to the moving end of the third robotic arm 516. A first defective product return line 519 is provided on the bottom side of the second conveying mechanism 517 away from the second inspection table 3. A number of first defective product storage bins 520 are fixedly connected to the top of the end of the first defective product return line 519 away from the good product transfer linear module 518. A third lifting mechanism is vertically provided at the bottom of the first defective product storage bin 520. A translation module 605 is fixedly connected to the moving table of the receiving linear module 604. A receiving table 606 is fixedly connected to the moving table of the translation module 605. After the carrier plate completes size and thickness inspection on the first inspection table 2, the second handling mechanism 517 (usually a linear module + lifting cylinder + suction cup) moves above the turntable conveyor mechanism 501, aligns with the inspected carrier table 513, descends, and lifts up after adsorbing the carrier plate through the suction cups. If the carrier plate is a good product, the second handling mechanism 517 moves the carrier plate above the transfer table 5181 of the good product transfer linear module 518, places the carrier plate down, and the good product transfer linear module 518 drives the transfer table 5181 to move towards the third robotic arm 516. The third robotic arm 516 rotates to above the transfer table 5181, adsorbs the carrier plate through a pair of third suction cups 5161, and then rotates... The material is then transferred to the receiving platform 606 of the receiving linear module 604 of the second inspection station 3 for the second stage of resolution and transmittance testing. If the carrier plate is defective, the second conveying mechanism 517 drives the carrier plate to move above the feeding end of the first defective product return line 519, places the carrier plate, and starts the first defective product return line 519 to transport the defective product to the end. The third lifting mechanism at the bottom of the first defective product storage bin 520 rises and, in conjunction with the side blocking mechanism, stacks the defective products one by one into the bin. Multiple storage bins can be classified and stored according to defect type (such as size defect, thickness defect). Through the above steps, good and defective products can be automatically separated to avoid mixing.
[0037] The flipping and unloading mechanism 609 includes a flipping and unloading linear module 6091. A flipping frame 6092 is fixedly connected to the moving table of the flipping and unloading linear module 6091. A pair of synchronous belt mechanisms 6093 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the flipping frame 6092. A flipping shaft is fixedly connected between the driven wheel shafts of the synchronous belt mechanism 6093. A flipping suction plate 6094 is fixedly connected tangentially in the middle of the flipping shaft. A receiving platform 6095 is fixedly connected to the end of the flipping and unloading linear module 6091 away from the rotating conveyor mechanism 601. The initial position of the flipping suction plate 6094 is at the receiving station, with the suction holes facing horizontally upwards. After the carrier plate has undergone resolution and transmittance testing, if the product is good, the rotary conveyor mechanism 601 drives the rotary suction cup 603 to place the carrier plate on top of the flipping suction plate 6094. At this time, the suction force generated by the suction holes can fix the carrier plate. Then, the flipping unloading linear module 6091 drives the flipping suction plate 6094 to move towards the receiving platform 6095 until it moves to the flipping station. At this time, the synchronous belt mechanism... The driven wheel 6093 rotates, which in turn drives the rotating shaft to rotate. The rotating suction plate 6094 rotates 180° tangentially with the rotating shaft, so that the side carrying the carrier plate is in contact with the receiving platform 6095. Then the suction hole stops generating suction force, and the synchronous belt mechanism 6093 drives the rotating suction plate 6094 to reset, and the carrier plate is placed on top of the receiving platform 6095. Through the above steps, the automatic rotation of the carrier plate can be realized, thereby distinguishing it from the undetected carrier plate. The dual-station alternating operation can realize continuous feeding.
[0038] A third conveying mechanism 611 is provided between the flipping unloading mechanism 609 and the receiving linear module 604. The moving table of the third conveying mechanism 611 is fixedly connected to a fourth suction cup 612. A second defective product return line 613 is provided at the bottom of the third conveying mechanism 611. A second defective product storage bin 614 and a third defective product storage bin 615 are fixedly connected to the top of the discharge end of the second defective product return line 613. A fourth lifting mechanism is vertically provided at the top of both the second defective product storage bin 614 and the third defective product storage bin 615. A fourth robotic arm 610 is provided between the pair of flipping unloading mechanisms 609. After the good product is placed on the receiving platform 6095, the fourth robotic arm 610 transfers the good product carrier plate to the unloading mechanism 4 for unloading. If the product is defective, the rotating conveyor 601 drives the defective product carrier plate past the flipping unloading mechanism 609 to the bottom of the third handling mechanism 611. At this time, the third handling mechanism 611 uses the fourth suction cup 612 to pick up the defective carrier plate and transport it to the feeding end of the second defective product return line 613. The second defective product return line 613 transports the defective product to the second defective product storage bin 614 or the third defective product storage bin 615 according to the type of defective product. The bottom fourth lifting mechanism stacks and stores them. Through the above steps, defective products can be stored in bins according to type, which is convenient for subsequent analysis or rework.

A third hopper 402 is fixedly connected to the top of the feeding end of the third flow line 401, and a fourth hopper 404 is fixedly connected to the top of the discharging end of the third flow line 401. Several limiting blocks 403 are symmetrically fixedly connected to both sides of the middle part of the third flow line 401. A second baffle cylinder 406 is provided on both sides of the third hopper 402 and the fourth hopper 404. A second lifting mechanism 405 is vertically provided at the bottom of the third hopper 402, the limiting blocks 403 and the fourth hopper 404. During unloading, the control tray inside the third hopper 402 is controlled by the second baffle cylinder 406 to flow out sequentially from bottom to top along the third flow line 401. The outflow process is the same as that of the loading mechanism 1. When the empty tray moves to the receiving station between the limit blocks 403, the second lifting mechanism 405 at the bottom of the limit block 403 lifts the tray away from the third flow line 401. At this time, the limit block 403 can limit the tray. Then, the fourth robotic arm 610 places the good products on the receiving table 6095 into the tray until the tray is full. Then, the corresponding second lifting mechanism 405 resets and places the full tray on the third flow line 401, so that the tray flows backward into the fourth hopper 404 for stacking and storage. Through the above steps, automatic stacking and unloading of the carrier can be realized, and no defective products are accepted during unloading. Good products and defective products can be isolated to avoid mixing.
[0040] Working Principle: Before testing, multiple thickness detection points are marked on the surface of the glass carrier plate in a grid pattern. During testing, the glass carrier plate to be tested is fed into the equipment by the feeding mechanism 1, and sequentially enters the first testing table 2 and the second testing table 3. When the first testing mechanism 5 at the top of the first testing table 2 performs the test, the size of the carrier plate is first detected by the size measuring frame 504. Then, the carrier plate is conveyed to the platform 513 of the turntable conveyor mechanism 501. At this time, the first testing mechanism 5 drives the platform 513 to rotate through the turntable conveyor mechanism 501. The glass carrier plate first moves with the platform 513 to the bottom of the positioning camera 514. The positioning camera 514 identifies the position of the glass carrier plate. Then, the turntable conveyor mechanism 501 drives the glass carrier plate to pass through multiple thickness detection mechanisms 515 in sequence. The thickness detection mechanisms 515 drive the thickness detection probe 5154 to move through the first linear module 5152 and the second linear module 5153 to perform multi-point thickness detection on the top of the carrier plate. Among them, different thickness detection mechanisms 515 The thickness detection probes 5154 have different movement trajectories, but all pass through pre-set thickness detection points, thus achieving synchronous thickness detection of the carrier plate along different trajectories, which can improve the detection accuracy of the carrier plate. After the size and thickness detection are completed, the carrier plate is conveyed to the receiving linear module 604 at the top of the second detection mechanism 6. The second detection mechanism 6 drives the rotating suction cup 603 to pick up the carrier plate through the rotating conveyor mechanism 601 and the rotating frame 602. The carrier plate is then subjected to functional and optical detection by the resolution detector 607 and the transmittance detector 608 in sequence. During the detection, the positions of the resolution detector 607 and the transmittance detector 608 can be adjusted by the position adjustment mechanism. After the detection is completed, the flipping unloading mechanism 609 completes the unloading. Finally, the unloading mechanism 4 packs the detected carrier plate into a tray for storage. Through the above steps, fully automatic integrated detection of multiple parameters such as the size, thickness, resolution, and transmittance of the glass carrier plate can be achieved, reducing manual intervention, improving detection efficiency and consistency, and improving detection accuracy.
