Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of glass tempering, and in particular to an automatic glass loading device for a glass tempering furnace. Background Art

[0002] Tempered glass, also known as strengthened glass or quenched glass, refers to glass with compressive stress on the surface and belongs to safety glass. It usually uses chemical or physical methods to form compressive stress on the glass surface and tensile stress inside, thereby improving the bearing capacity and enhancing the glass's own resistance to wind pressure, cold and heat, impact, etc. During the production process of tempered glass, the glass needs to be transported to the tempering furnace to improve the strength of the glass.

[0003] After glass is produced, many glasses are stacked together. When the upper glass is adsorbed, the lower glass may be lifted up, which may cause the glass to fall and break. Based on this, there is still room for improvement in the existing automatic glass loading technology of tempered furnaces. Summary of the invention

[0004] The purpose of the present application is to provide an automatic glass loading device for a glass tempering furnace in order to solve the above-mentioned problem. First, one side of the glass is pulled upward to allow air to enter between the two pieces of glass, and then the glass on the other side is adsorbed and the glass is adjusted to a horizontal state to avoid lifting the lower glass when adsorbing the upper glass. The glass is then transferred to a conveying device and two pieces of glass can be adsorbed at a time, thereby increasing the loading speed.

[0021] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all of the embodiments.

[0022] In the description of this application, it should be understood that the terms "upper", "lower", "front", "back", "left", "right", "top", "bottom", "inside", "outside" and the like indicate directions or positional relationships based on the attached Figure 1 , and is only for the convenience of describing the present application and simplifying the description, and does not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore cannot be understood as limiting the present application.

[0023] like Figure 1-3 As shown, an automatic glass tempering furnace loading device includes two groups of adsorption components and a transfer component, and the two groups of adsorption components are arranged in parallel; the adsorption component includes a first telescopic cylinder 4, a suction cup support 5, a vacuum suction cup 6, and a second telescopic cylinder 18, and the telescopic ends of the first telescopic cylinder 4 and the second telescopic cylinder 18 are both hingedly provided with a suction cup support 5, and the bottom of the suction cup support 5 is provided with a vacuum suction cup 6 for adsorbing glass, and the first telescopic cylinder 4 and the second telescopic cylinder 18 are fixedly connected to the transfer component that drives them to move.

[0024] Specifically, the first telescopic cylinder 4 and the second telescopic cylinder 18 are controlled to be extended and retracted respectively, so that the suction cup support 5 can be lowered respectively, so that one of the vacuum suction cups 6 first contacts the glass, and then the first telescopic cylinder 4 or the second telescopic cylinder 18 is started to drive the suction cup support 5 to be lifted, so that the glass can be tilted to facilitate the entry of air between the two pieces of glass. Then, the situation that the adsorbed glass and the glass to be adsorbed are adsorbed together is avoided, and the situation that multiple pieces of glass are adsorbed together and may fall off and break is avoided. After the glass is tilted, the first telescopic cylinder 4 or the second telescopic cylinder 18 is started again to drive the other vacuum suction cup 6 to release the glass, and then the glass is adjusted to a horizontal state, and then the glass is transported.

[0025] Furthermore, the adsorption assembly also includes a feed base 14, a temporary storage box 15, and a feeding cylinder 16. The feed base 14 is located below the first telescopic cylinder 4 and the second telescopic cylinder 18. The feed base 14 has a groove for accommodating the temporary storage box 15. There are two feeding cylinders 16, and the telescopic ends are fixedly connected to both sides of the feed base 14 to drive the feed base 14 to rise and fall.

[0026] Specifically, the feeding cylinder 16 is telescopically driven to drive the feeding base 14 to rise and fall, so that the glass placed in the temporary storage box 15 is moved to the position to be adsorbed, which is convenient for the vacuum suction cup 6 to release the glass. At the same time, the temporary storage box 15 can be separated from the feeding base 14, which is convenient for material replacement.

[0027] Furthermore, the transfer assembly includes a rotating shaft 1 and a boom 2. The rotating shaft 1 is vertically arranged, and the top end of the rotating shaft 1 is fixedly connected to both ends of the boom 2. The rotating shaft 1 is connected to a driving part that drives it to rotate, and the first telescopic cylinder 4 and the second telescopic cylinder 18 are fixedly connected near one end of the boom 2.

[0028] Specifically, the rotating shaft 1 is driven to rotate by the driving unit, thereby driving the upper arm 2 to rotate, causing the two ends of the upper arm 2 to deviate.

[0029] Furthermore, the driving part includes a shell 9, a third telescopic cylinder 10, a rack 12, and a gear 13. The rotating shaft 1 is rotationally connected to the shell 9, the third telescopic cylinder 10 is fixedly mounted on the shell 9, and the telescopic end is fixedly connected to the rack 12. The gear 13 is arranged on the rotating shaft 1, and the gear 13 is meshed with the rack 12.

[0030] Specifically, the housing 9 is placed flat on the ground and can be fixed by fasteners, so that the shaft 1 can be supported to rotate, and the third telescopic cylinder 10 is started to extend and retract, driving the rack 12 to translate, and then the rack 12 translates and engages to drive the gear 13 to rotate, thereby rotating the shaft 1.

[0031] Specifically, the third telescopic cylinder 10 is started to extend and retract, driving the rack 12 to translate, and then the rack 12 translates and meshes to drive the gear 13 to rotate, and then the shaft 1 rotates, and the arm 2 follows the rotation to drive the adsorption assembly to deviate.

[0032] Furthermore, a counterweight 3 is fixedly connected to one end of the upper arm 2 which is away from the first telescopic cylinder 4 and the second telescopic cylinder 18 .

[0033] Specifically, the dimension between the rotating shaft 1 and the counterweight 3 is smaller than the dimension between the rotating shaft 1 and the first telescopic cylinder 4 and the second telescopic cylinder 18 , thereby reducing space occupation while maintaining the balance of the boom 2 .

[0034] Furthermore, the adsorption assembly also includes a balancing block 7 , and each suction cup support 5 is fixedly connected with a balancing block 7 for maintaining the balance of the suction cup support 5 .

[0035] Specifically, the suction cup support 5 is hinged to the first telescopic cylinder 4 and the second telescopic cylinder 18. When the vacuum suction cup 6 contacts the tilted glass, it will tilt. At this time, the balance block 7 follows the tilt. When it is separated from the glass, the balance block 7 keeps falling under the action of gravity, thereby keeping the vacuum suction cup 6 in a downward state.

[0036] Furthermore, a support leg 17 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the temporary storage box 15 for supporting the temporary storage box 15 so that there is a gap between it and the bottom of the groove, and a positioning groove adapted to the support leg 17 is provided at the bottom of the groove on the feed base 14 .

[0037] Specifically, when the temporary storage box 15 is placed in the groove on the feed base 14, the support leg 17 slides into the positioning groove, and then positions the temporary storage box 15. At the same time, there is a gap between the temporary storage box 15 and the bottom of the groove to facilitate forklifts and other equipment to transport the temporary storage box 15.

[0038] Furthermore, the first telescopic cylinder 4 and the second telescopic cylinder 18 are both connected to the suction cup support 5 via the hinge seat 8 so that the suction cup support 5 can rotate on the first telescopic cylinder 4 or the second telescopic cylinder 18 .

[0039] In the above structure, the stacked glasses are placed flat in the temporary storage box 15 as a whole, and then the temporary storage box 15 is placed on the feeding base 14 by a forklift or other equipment, and then the feeding cylinder 16 can drive the feeding base 14 to rise and fall, so as to fill the lower glass to the position to be adsorbed, so that the vacuum suction cup 6 can contact the uppermost glass. When adsorbing the glass, the first telescopic cylinder 4 is first started to extend and drive the suction cup support 5 to descend, and then the vacuum suction cup 6 on the suction cup support 5 first contacts the glass, and then the first telescopic cylinder 4 is started to contract, driving the vacuum suction cup 6 to rise, so that the glass is tilted, and then the second telescopic cylinder 18 is started to extend and drive another vacuum suction cup 6 to contact and adsorb the glass, so as to avoid the situation that the adsorbed glass and the glass to be adsorbed are adsorbed together. After the adsorption is completed, the third telescopic cylinder 10 is started to extend and drive the rack 12 to translate, and then the rack 12 translates and meshes to drive the gear 13 to rotate, and then the shaft 1 rotates, and the arm 2 rotates accordingly, driving the glass to translate, and the glass is placed at the conveying position and conveyed to the glass tempering furnace.
