Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of glass plate production, and more specifically, to an automatic glass plate cutting device. Background Art

[0002] In the production process of carrier glass, the glass raw materials need to be cut to reach the required size, and the cutting tool is usually a diamond glass cutter.

[0003] In the prior art, glass sheets are either cut manually or an automated cutting station is provided on a conveying mechanism. When the glass sheet moves to the cutting station, the conveying mechanism stops, a glass cutter scratches the surface of the glass sheet, and then the glass sheet is broken by subsequent manual or mechanical equipment to complete the cutting.

[0004] In order to ensure the straightness of the glass plate during the marking process, the glass plate needs to be cut in a stationary state, which greatly affects the rhythm of glass plate production and causes the speed of glass plate production to decrease.

[0005] Therefore, a novel automatic glass cutting device is needed to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0006] One purpose of the utility model is to solve the problem that the existing glass plate cutting device needs to be paused during operation, thus affecting the production rhythm.

[0007] According to one aspect of the utility model, an automated glass plate cutting device is provided, comprising a mounting frame and a glass cutter, the mounting frame comprising a longitudinal moving bracket and a transverse moving bracket, the longitudinal moving bracket being slidably connected to the longitudinal moving rail and driven by a longitudinal moving driving mechanism, the longitudinal moving rail being arranged along the track conveying direction and fixed to both sides of the track, the transverse moving bracket being slidably connected to the longitudinal moving bracket and driven by the transverse moving driving mechanism, the sliding direction of the transverse moving bracket being perpendicular to the track conveying direction, and the glass cutter being arranged at the bottom of the transverse moving bracket.

[0008] Through this solution, the speed of the longitudinal drive mechanism is adjusted to make the moving speed of the longitudinal support consistent with the track conveying speed, ensuring that the longitudinal speed of the glass cutter runs synchronously with the glass plate. The scribing operation can be completed directly without stopping the glass plate. After the scribing is completed, it returns to the original position and starts the reverse scribing again.

[0009] Preferably, a slide groove is provided on the longitudinal movement rail, and the bottom of the longitudinal movement bracket is slidably connected to the slide groove through a pulley.

[0010] Through this solution, the slide groove can limit the movement of the pulley to ensure its stable movement.

[0011] Preferably, a longitudinal shift rack is provided on one side of the slide slot, and the longitudinal shift drive mechanism comprises a longitudinal shift motor, and the output shaft of the longitudinal shift motor is meshed with the longitudinal shift rack via a longitudinal shift gear.

[0012] Through this solution, the longitudinal movement motor is a servo motor, which can accurately control its movement speed and cooperate with the meshing of the gear and the rack to ensure cutting accuracy.

[0013] Preferably, a transverse movement groove is provided on the longitudinal movement bracket, and groove wheels are provided on both sides of the bottom of the transverse movement bracket, and the groove wheels are clamped to the two side walls of the transverse movement groove.

[0014] Through this solution, the groove wheel can not only play a supporting role, but also reduce friction, ensure the smoothness and stability of the movement of the transverse bracket, and avoid the marking jitter caused by the longitudinal jump of the transverse bracket.

[0015] Preferably, a transverse rack is provided on one side of the transverse slot, and the transverse driving mechanism comprises a transverse motor, and the output shaft of the transverse motor is meshed with the transverse rack through a transverse gear.

[0016] Through this solution, the transverse movement motor is a servo motor, and its speed can be conveniently controlled to cooperate with the return speed of the longitudinal movement bracket to adapt to the cutting spacing of different glass plates.

[0017] Preferably, a mounting seat is provided at the bottom of the transverse support, and the glass cutter is elastically connected to the mounting seat via a compression spring, and the compression spring always applies a downward thrust to the glass cutter.

[0018] Through this solution, the squeezing spring can always press the glass cutter tightly against the glass plate, thereby ensuring the reliability of its scribing.

[0019] Preferably, the mounting seat comprises a bottom cylinder and a blocking cap, a limiting platform is provided at the end of the knife column of the glass cutter, and the compensation spring is located between the limiting platform and the bottom of the bottom cylinder.

[0020] Through this solution, the glass cutter can be easily replaced after the blocking cap is disassembled.

[0021] Preferably, the glass cutter is wedge-shaped.

[0022] Through this solution, the two wedge-shaped side surfaces facilitate the movement of the glass cutter to the glass plate, thereby avoiding the breakage of the glass plate caused by the jamming phenomenon.

[0023] One technical effect of the utility model is that, by adopting the automatic glass plate cutting device, the cutting of the glass plate can be completed during the movement of the glass plate, thereby eliminating the need to pause the production line, greatly improving the glass plate scribing efficiency and helping to improve the production efficiency of the glass plate.
