Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of glass cutting technology, and more particularly to a rapid separation glass cutting device. Background Technology

[0002] Glass is a hard and brittle non-metallic material with high hardness, low toughness, and anisotropic fracture characteristics. It is prone to chipping, cracking, and fragmentation when cut. To meet the diverse processing needs of glass products, large glass sheets need to be quickly separated into specific sizes. Therefore, a special glass cutting device is required. This device mainly consists of a cutting table, a cutting head assembly, a cutting head drive mechanism, and a separation mechanism. In use, the glass sheet is first placed on the cutting table. Then, the cutting head movement path is set according to the target size. The drive mechanism drives the cutting head to uniformly scribble on the glass surface to form stress concentration lines. After scribing, the separation mechanism applies a lifting force from below the scribing or a breaking force from both sides, causing the glass to quickly break and separate along the scribing, completing the cut to the specified length.

[0003] The separation mechanism of existing glass cutting equipment mostly uses a single-size large circular suction cup, which can only adsorb and pick up large circular glass pieces as a whole. When multiple small circular glass pieces are cut from a long strip of glass, the large suction cup cannot accurately pick up the small circular glass pieces because the adsorption area exceeds the range of the small circular glass pieces. The machine needs to be stopped and a special separation mechanism needs to be replaced, resulting in frequent model changes, reduced production efficiency, and limited compatibility with the specifications of the special mechanism, making it difficult to meet the needs of mixed production lines for multiple types of glass.

[0004] Therefore, a rapid glass cutting device is proposed to solve the above problems. Summary of the Invention

[0005] To address the technical problems of existing separation mechanisms having limited specifications, frequent model changes, and difficulty in adapting to mixed production lines of multiple glass varieties, this invention provides a glass cutting device for rapid separation.

[0006] The technical solutions provided by the embodiments of the present invention are as follows:

[0007] This invention provides a rapid glass cutting device, comprising a cutting platform and a separating platform. The separating platform is located at the discharge end of the cutting platform and is equipped with a conveyor line for transporting glass. A mounting base is located at the discharge end of the separating platform. A T-shaped separating arm is rotatably connected to the top of the mounting base. A rotary motor is fixedly connected inside the mounting base. The output end of the rotary motor passes through the mounting base and is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the T-shaped separating arm. Upper electric telescopic cylinders are fixedly connected to both ends of the top of the T-shaped separating arm. The output ends of the upper electric telescopic cylinders pass through the bottom end of the T-shaped separating arm and are fixedly connected to a cylinder. Two pairs of pneumatic suction cups are located below the cylinder. A flipping mechanism is provided inside the cylinder to drive the two pairs of pneumatic suction cups to flip towards the center. A circular block is rotatably connected through the bottom end of the cylinder. A toothed disc is fixedly connected to the top of each circular block. An adjustment mechanism is also provided to adjust the flipping direction of each pair of pneumatic suction cups.

[0008] In the above technical solution, a pair of upper telescopic cylinders for limiting glass waste are fixedly connected to the top of the separation platform. A pair of connecting rods are fixedly connected between the separation platform and the mounting base. Each connecting rod has a bracket fixedly connected to its top. A lower telescopic cylinder for limiting glass waste is fixedly connected to the side wall of the bracket. By setting the upper and lower telescopic cylinders, the residual material around the circular glass can be positioned during the separation process, ensuring that when the pneumatic suction cup moves the circular glass upward, it can be quickly separated from the residual material around it.

[0009] In the above technical solution, a baffle is fixedly connected to the side of the mounting base near the separation platform to block the splashed waste during the separation process and prevent the waste from splashing randomly. A collection box is provided on the side of the mounting base near the separation platform to collect and process the waste.

[0010] In the above technical solution, the flipping mechanism further includes a lower electric telescopic cylinder and a telescopic plate. A pair of lower electric telescopic cylinders are provided. The lower electric telescopic cylinders are fixedly connected to the bottom end of the inner cylinder. The telescopic plate is longitudinally slidably connected to the inner side of the cylinder. The output end of the lower electric telescopic cylinder is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the telescopic plate. A rectangular frame is fixedly connected through the inside of the circular block and the gear plate. A notch is opened at the bottom end of the rectangular frame. A T-shaped rotating shaft is rotatably connected to the inner side of the notch. The pneumatic suction cups are all fixedly connected to the bottom end of the T-shaped rotating shaft. An upper gear is rotatably connected to the side wall of the rectangular frame. Four rotating disks are provided at the bottom end of the telescopic plate. An upper rack that meshes with the upper gear is fixedly connected to the bottom end of each of the four rotating disks. A transmission structure is provided between the upper gear and the T-shaped rotating shaft.

[0011] In the above technical solution, the transmission structure further includes an upper sprocket, a lower sprocket, and a chain. The upper sprocket is rotatably connected to the top of the rectangular frame, and the lower sprocket is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the T-shaped rotating shaft. The chain is connected between the upper sprocket and the lower sprocket. The side wall of the upper sprocket passes through the rectangular frame and is fixedly connected to the rotating end of the upper gear. A central rod is fixedly connected to the center of the bottom end of the cylinder, and side rods are fixedly connected to both sides of the bottom end of the cylinder. The side rods are positioned between each pair of pneumatic suction cups. The four T-shaped rotating shafts are equidistantly distributed below the cylinder. The axis of each T-shaped rotating shaft is inclined at 45 degrees relative to the horizontal plane of the cylinder, and the axes of two T-shaped rotating shafts arranged opposite each other are parallel. Through the setting of the flipping mechanism, when adsorbing four small round glass pieces, the four pneumatic suction cups drive the four small round glass pieces to flip outward synchronously. Using the outward squeezing force and the squeezing of the remaining material by the central rod and the side rods, the remaining material in the middle of the four round glass pieces is automatically broken off and detached without manual intervention or the addition of special separation equipment.

[0012] In the above technical solution, further, the adjusting mechanism includes a lower rack, a middle plate, and adjusting screws. Two pairs of lower racks are provided, and the two pairs of lower racks are slidably connected to the bottom end of the cylinder. The lower racks mesh with the gear disc. Two middle plates and adjusting screws are provided. Two middle plates are fixedly connected between each pair of lower racks. Two adjusting screws are threadedly connected to both sides of the outer wall of the cylinder. The middle plate is laterally slidably connected to the bottom end of the cylinder. The side end of the adjusting screw is rotatably connected to the side wall of the middle plate. The telescopic plate... Four rotating slots are provided at the bottom, and the four rotating disks are rotatably connected to the inner side of the corresponding rotating slots. A pair of positioning slots are provided at the top of the rectangular frame, and a positioning rod is slidably connected to the inner side of the positioning slot. The positioning rod is fixedly connected to the bottom of the rotating disk. By adjusting the mechanism, the material-breaking direction of each pair of pneumatic suction cups can be adjusted, thereby adjusting the T-shaped rotating shaft to a horizontal state, driving the two rectangular glass to flip outward. By squeezing the middle residual material through the middle rod, the cut glass can be broken and separated along the cutting marks under the action of bending moment.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0014] 1. This invention replaces the traditional single large circular suction cup with an array of four small suction cups and sets up a flipping mechanism. This allows the four pneumatic suction cups to not only automatically separate and pick up large circular glass pieces, but also to simultaneously flip the four small circular glass pieces outwards while adsorbing them. By using the outward pressure and the squeezing of the remaining material by the central rod and side rods, the remaining material in the middle of the four circular glass pieces is automatically broken off and detached without manual intervention or the addition of special separation equipment. This structure allows the same picking mechanism to be compatible with the picking and separation operations of various glass specifications, reduces changeover and adjustment time, and improves the flexible production capacity of the production line.

[0015] 2. By adjusting the mechanism, this invention enables the cutting device to separate two rectangular pieces of glass cut from a glass surface. The direction of each pair of pneumatic suction cups can be adjusted, allowing the T-shaped rotating shaft to be horizontally aligned. This causes the two rectangular pieces of glass to flip outwards, and the remaining material in the middle is squeezed by the central rod. The cut glass is then subjected to bending moment and breaks along the cutting marks, completing the integrated operation of picking up and separating the pieces. This structure allows the same flipping mechanism to be adapted to the cutting and separation requirements of rectangular glass, eliminating the need for a separate separation device for rectangular glass and further expanding the versatility of the picking mechanism.

Detailed Implementation

[0029] To better understand the above-mentioned objectives, features, and advantages of the present invention, the present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0030] Numerous specific details are set forth in the following description in order to provide a full understanding of the invention. However, the invention may also be practiced in other ways different from those described herein, and therefore the invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.

[0031] In practical use, it was found that the separation mechanism of existing glass cutting equipment mostly uses a single-size large circular suction cup, which can only adsorb and pick up large circular glass pieces as a whole. When multiple small circular glass pieces are cut from a long strip of glass, the large suction cup cannot accurately pick up the small circular glass pieces because the adsorption area exceeds the range of the small circular glass pieces. It is necessary to stop the machine and replace the dedicated separation mechanism, resulting in frequent model changes, reduced production efficiency, and limited compatibility of the dedicated mechanism with different specifications, which makes it difficult to meet the needs of mixed production lines for multiple types of glass. To solve the above problems, the following structure was invented.

[0032] like Figures 1-12The illustrated rapid glass cutting device includes a cutting platform 1 and a separation platform 2. The separation platform 2 is located at the discharge end of the cutting platform 1. The separation platform 2 is equipped with a conveyor line 3 for conveying glass. The discharge end of the separation platform 2 is equipped with a mounting base 4. A T-shaped separation arm 5 is rotatably connected to the top of the mounting base 4. A rotary motor 6 is fixedly connected inside the mounting base 4. The output end of the rotary motor 6 passes through the mounting base 4 and is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the T-shaped separation arm 5. The cutting platform 1 is used to support the glass sheet to be cut. The table surface is equipped with vacuum adsorption holes to stably fix the glass. The cutting head scribing along a preset trajectory on the glass surface forms a stress concentration line. After scribing, the glass sheet remains in an adsorption state and is transferred to the separation platform 2 by the conveyor mechanism. Then, the glass sheet is received and transported by the conveyor line 3 on the separation platform 2. The conveyor belt drives the glass sheet forward and transfers the glass sheet to the separation station, realizing the continuous connection between cutting and separation and subsequent processes.

[0033] Both ends of the top of the T-shaped separating arm 5 are fixedly connected to an upper electric telescopic cylinder 7. The output ends of the upper electric telescopic cylinder 7 pass through the bottom of the T-shaped separating arm 5 and are fixedly connected to a cylinder 8. Two pairs of pneumatic suction cups 9 are provided below the cylinder 8. A flipping mechanism for driving the two pairs of pneumatic suction cups 9 to flip towards the center is provided inside the cylinder 8. A circular block 10 is rotatably connected through the bottom of the cylinder 8. A toothed disc 11 is fixedly connected to the top of the circular block 10. An adjustment mechanism for adjusting the flipping direction of each pair of pneumatic suction cups 9 is also provided.

[0034] A pair of upper telescopic cylinders 12 for limiting glass waste are fixedly connected to the top of the separation platform 2. A pair of connecting rods 13 are fixedly connected between the separation platform 2 and the mounting base 4. Each connecting rod 13 has a bracket 14 fixedly connected to its top. A lower telescopic cylinder 15 for limiting glass waste is fixedly connected to the side wall of the bracket 14. By setting the upper telescopic cylinders 12 and the lower telescopic cylinders 15, the residual material around the circular glass can be positioned during the separation process, ensuring that when the pneumatic suction cup 9 moves the circular glass upward, it can be quickly separated from the residual material around it. A baffle 16 is fixedly connected to the side of the mounting base 4 near the separation platform 2. A collection box 17 is provided on the side of the mounting base 4 near the separation platform 2. The collection box 17 collects the fallen waste glass, ensuring unified collection and processing in the future.

[0035] The flipping mechanism includes a lower electric telescopic cylinder 18 and a telescopic plate 19. A pair of lower electric telescopic cylinders 18 are provided. The lower electric telescopic cylinders 18 are fixedly connected to the bottom of the inner end of the cylinder 8. The telescopic plate 19 is longitudinally slidably connected to the inner side of the cylinder 8. The output end of the lower electric telescopic cylinder 18 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the telescopic plate 19. A rectangular frame 20 is fixedly connected through the inside of the circular block 10 and the gear disc 11. A notch 34 is opened at the bottom end of the rectangular frame 20. A T-shaped rotating shaft 21 is rotatably connected to the inner side of the notch 34. Pneumatic suction cups 9 are all fixedly connected to the bottom end of the T-shaped rotating shaft 21. An upper gear 22 is rotatably connected to the side wall of the rectangular frame 20. Four rotating disks 23 are provided at the bottom end of the telescopic plate 19. An upper rack 24 that meshes with the upper gear 22 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of each of the four rotating disks 23. A transmission structure is provided between the upper gear 22 and the T-shaped rotating shaft 21.

[0036] The transmission structure includes an upper sprocket 25, a lower sprocket 26, and a chain 27. The upper sprocket 25 is rotatably connected to the top of the rectangular frame 20, the lower sprocket 26 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the T-shaped rotating shaft 21, and the chain 27 is driven between the upper sprocket 25 and the lower sprocket 26. The side wall of the upper sprocket 25 passes through the rectangular frame 20 and is fixedly connected to the rotating end of the upper gear 22.

[0037] The bottom of the telescopic plate 19 has four rotating grooves 33, and the four rotating disks 23 are rotatably connected to the inner side of the corresponding rotating grooves 33.

[0038] A central rod 28 is fixedly connected to the center of the bottom end of the cylinder 8, and side rods 29 are fixedly connected to both sides of the bottom end of the cylinder 8. The side rods 29 are positioned between each pair of pneumatic suction cups 9. When the pneumatic suction cups 9 are adsorbed onto the upper surface of the glass, the bottom ends of the central rod 28 and the side rods 29 are in contact with the upper surface of the glass. Four T-shaped rotating shafts 21 are equidistantly distributed below the cylinder 8. The axis of each T-shaped rotating shaft 21 is inclined at 45 degrees relative to the horizontal plane of the cylinder 8, and the axes of two T-shaped rotating shafts 21 arranged opposite each other are parallel to each other.

[0039] When cutting large circular glass on a long strip of glass, the long strip of glass is first placed on the cutting platform 1, and then automatically cut by the cutting machine on the cutting platform 1. After the cutting is completed, it is transported by the conveying mechanism to the conveyor line 3 of the separation platform 2. Then the conveyor line 3 transports the long strip of glass after the division to the separation end. Then the upper electric telescopic cylinder 7 can be controlled to start and drive the cylinder 8 and the pneumatic suction cup 9 to move downward, so that the pneumatic suction cup 9 moves to the upper surface of the long strip of glass. Then the pneumatic suction cup 9 is controlled to start and adsorb and fix the large circular glass in the middle. Then the upper telescopic cylinder 12 and the lower telescopic cylinder 15 are controlled to start, so that the output ends of the upper telescopic cylinder 12 and the lower telescopic cylinder 15 are pressed against the remaining material around the large circular glass.

[0040] Then, the upper electric telescopic cylinder 7 can be started, driving the pneumatic suction cup 9 and the large circular glass being adsorbed to move upward, thereby causing the large circular glass to break and separate along the cutting marks. Then, the rotary motor 6 is started to drive the T-shaped separation arm 5 to rotate, rotating the separated large circular glass to the subsequent work station, and driving the empty pneumatic suction cup 9 to rotate above the separation platform 2. Then, the above operation is repeated to continue picking up materials.

[0041] When cutting four small circular glass pieces on a long strip of glass, the cut strip of glass is transported to the separation station via conveyor line 3. Then, the upper electric telescopic cylinder 7 is activated to drive the cylinder 8 and pneumatic suction cup 9 to move downwards, so that the pneumatic suction cup 9 moves to the upper surface of the long strip of glass. Then, the pneumatic suction cup 9 is activated, and the four pneumatic suction cups 9 adsorb and fix the corresponding small circular glass pieces. Then, the upper telescopic cylinder 12 and the lower telescopic cylinder 15 are activated, so that the output ends of the upper telescopic cylinder 12 and the lower telescopic cylinder 15 abut against the remaining material around the four small circular glass pieces. Then, the upper electric telescopic cylinder 7 is activated, driving the pneumatic suction cup 9 and the adsorbed small circular glass pieces to move upwards, so that the four small circular glass pieces break and separate along the cutting marks (at this time, the remaining glass material between the four small circular glass pieces is in a connected state).

[0042] Then, the rotary motor 6 is controlled to drive the T-shaped separating arm 5 to rotate forward at a 45-degree angle, causing the cylinder 8 to rotate away from above the conveyor line 3 and rotate to above the collection box 17. Subsequently, the lower electric telescopic cylinder 18 is activated, causing the telescopic plate 19 to move upward, simultaneously driving the four rotating disks 23 and the upper rack 24 to move upward. This, in turn, drives the meshing upper gear 22 to rotate, thereby driving the upper sprocket 25 to rotate. Subsequently, under the transmission of the chain 27, the lower sprocket 26 rotates, and the T-shaped rotating shaft 21 rotates, thus... The pneumatic suction cup 9 and the corresponding small round glass are rotated (at this time, the end of the small round glass near the center of the cylinder 8 will rotate upward, while the remaining material between the four small round glass is pressed against the bottom of the middle rod 28 and the side rod 29. Therefore, when the small round glass rotates upward, the remaining material in the middle cannot rotate upward, so the small round glass will break and separate along the cutting marks). At this time, the broken remaining material falls into the collection box 17. Finally, the rotary motor 6 can be controlled to rotate the four small round glass to the next station. This process is repeated to achieve automatic separation of the four small round glass.

[0043] In summary, through the design of the above structure, by replacing the traditional single large circular suction cup with an array of four small suction cups and setting up a flipping mechanism, the four pneumatic suction cups 9 can not only automatically separate and pick up large circular glass pieces, but also, when adsorbing four small circular glass pieces, the four pneumatic suction cups 9 can simultaneously flip the four small circular glass pieces outwards. Utilizing the outward squeezing force and the squeezing of the remaining material by the middle rod 28 and the side rod 29, the remaining material in the middle of the four circular glass pieces is automatically broken off and detached without manual intervention or the addition of special separation equipment. This structure allows the same picking mechanism to be compatible with the picking and separation operations of glass of various specifications, reduces changeover adjustment time, and improves the flexible production capacity of the production line.

[0044] Based on the above embodiments, it was found during use that although the above can achieve the common strip taking of large round glass and four small round glass and the removal of the central excess material, it cannot separate the two rectangular glass pieces cut from the long strip glass. The existing rectangular glass still requires an additional independent separation device after cutting, the process connection is not smooth, the equipment is not versatile enough, and it is difficult to achieve the integrated operation of cutting and separating round glass and rectangular glass. In order to solve the above problems, the above structure has been further improved.

[0045] The adjustment mechanism includes a lower rack 30, a middle plate 31, and an adjusting screw 32. There are two pairs of lower racks 30, which are slidably connected to the bottom of the inner wall of the cylinder 8. The lower racks 30 mesh with the gear disc 11. There are two middle plates 31 and two adjusting screws 32. The two middle plates 31 are fixedly connected between each pair of lower racks 30. The two adjusting screws 32 are threadedly connected to both sides of the outer wall of the cylinder 8. The middle plate 31 is slidably connected to the bottom of the inner wall of the cylinder 8, and the side end of the adjusting screw 32 is rotatably connected to the side wall of the middle plate 31.

[0046] A pair of positioning grooves 35 are provided at the top of the rectangular frame 20. A positioning rod 36 is slidably connected to the inner side of the positioning groove 35. The positioning rod 36 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the rotating disk 23. With the setting of the positioning groove 35 and the positioning rod 36, the rotating disk 23 can be driven to rotate together when the circular block 10 rotates, so as to ensure the stable meshing of the upper rack 24 and the upper gear 22.

[0047] When cutting rectangular glass on a long strip of glass, first rotate the adjusting screw 32 to move it inward, which in turn pushes the middle plate 31 and the lower rack 30 to move, thereby driving the meshing gear disk 11 to rotate, and driving the round block 10 and the rectangular frame 20 to rotate 45 degrees. At the same time, the positioning rod 36 drives the rotating disk 23 to rotate together, thereby rotating the rectangular frame 20 and the T-shaped rotating shaft 21 to a horizontal state, thus completing the adjustment.

[0048] After the rectangular glass is cut on the long glass sheet, it is transported to the separation station via conveyor line 3. Then, the upper electric telescopic cylinder 7 is activated to drive the cylinder 8 and pneumatic suction cup 9 to move downwards, so that each pair of pneumatic suction cups 9 moves to the upper surface of each long glass sheet. Then, the pneumatic suction cup 9 is activated to adsorb and fix the rectangular glass in the middle. Then, the upper telescopic cylinder 12 and the lower telescopic cylinder 15 are activated so that the output ends of the upper telescopic cylinder 12 and the lower telescopic cylinder 15 abut against the remaining material around the rectangular glass. Then, the upper electric telescopic cylinder 7 is activated to drive the pneumatic suction cup 9 and the adsorbed rectangular glass to move upwards, so that the rectangular glass breaks and separates along the cutting marks (at this time, the remaining glass between the rectangular glass pieces is in a connected state).

[0049] Then, control the rotary motor 6 to drive the T-shaped separating arm 5 to rotate forward at a 45-degree angle, so that the cylinder 8 rotates away from above the conveyor line 3 and rotates to above the collection box 17. Then, control the lower electric telescopic cylinder 18 to start and repeat the above-mentioned operation of the flipping mechanism (the difference is that when the telescopic plate 19 and the upper rack 24 move upward, driving the upper gear 22 to rotate, it will drive each pair of pneumatic suction cups 9 to flip to both sides. When the four small round glass is separated, the action of flipping to all four sides is used). When the rectangular glass flips to both sides, the side of the rectangular glass that is close to each other will flip upward. At this time, the remaining material between the rectangular glass is against the bottom of the middle rod 28 (at this time, the rectangular glass under the side rod 29 will flip downward, so it will not be obstructed by the side rod 29). Thus, the middle rod 28 squeezes the middle remaining material, so that the cut glass is subjected to bending moment and breaks and separates along the cutting marks. Finally, control the rotary motor 6 to place the separated rectangular glass in the next station. Repeat the above operation to run.

[0050] In summary, the above structural design allows the cutting device to adjust the material-breaking direction of each pair of pneumatic suction cups 9 when separating two rectangular pieces of glass cut from the glass. This enables the T-shaped rotating shaft 21 to be adjusted to a horizontal position, causing the two rectangular pieces of glass to flip outwards. The middle rod 28 then squeezes the remaining material in the middle, causing the cut glass to break and separate along the cutting marks under the action of bending moment. This completes the integrated operation of picking up and separating the pieces. This structure allows the same flipping mechanism to be adapted to the cutting and separation requirements of rectangular glass, eliminating the need to design a separate separation device for rectangular glass and further expanding the versatility of the picking mechanism.
