Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.
[0020] The utility model provides a glass automatic separation mechanism, such as Figure 1-Figure 2 As shown, it includes several lifting suction cup arms 3, one side of each lifting suction cup arm 3 is installed with several vacuum suction cups 5, the other side of each lifting suction cup arm 3 is provided with a supporting suction cup arm 4, the upper end of the supporting suction cup arm 4 is connected to the lifting suction cup arm 3 through a lifting follower rocker 2, the lower end of the supporting suction cup arm 4 is connected to the lifting suction cup arm 3 through a lifting driving rocker 7, the bottom ends of several supporting suction cup arms 4 are connected through the same lifting driving shaft 6, two lifting driving cylinders 8 are arranged above the lifting driving shaft 6, the output shaft of the lifting driving cylinder 8 is hinged to the lifting suction cup arm 3, the lifting driving cylinder 8 is controlled and operated by the control system 1, the utility model controls the operation of the lifting driving cylinder 8 through the control system 1, and then drives the lifting suction cup arm 3 and the supporting suction cup arm 4 to move, thereby realizing the automatic separation of glass plates, greatly improving production efficiency and reducing manual labor intensity. A number of vacuum suction cups 5 are installed on one side of each lifting suction cup arm 3. These vacuum suction cups 5 can accurately absorb the glass. Together with the structural design of the lifting follower rocker 2, the lifting drive rocker 7 and the supporting suction cup arm 4, the glass can remain stable during the separation process, thus avoiding damage and scratches during the separation process. The bottom ends of the supporting suction cup arms 4 are connected through the same lifting drive shaft 6. This design makes the structure of the entire mechanism more compact and improves the stability of operation. The output shaft of the lifting drive cylinder 8 is hinged to the lifting suction cup arm 3. This hinged connection method allows the lifting suction cup arm 3 to more flexibly adapt to different work requirements during operation. The entire mechanism is centrally controlled by the control system 1, which is easy to operate and easy to realize automatic control. At the same time, the structural design of the mechanism is reasonable, which is convenient for maintenance and reduces the cost of use.
[0021] In this embodiment, the glass is placed on the base 9, and a support plate 10 is installed on one side of the top of the base 9. The side surface of the glass leans against the support plate 10 at an angle to ensure that the glass is placed stably.
[0022] Specifically, one end of the lifting follower rocker 2 and the lifting driving rocker 7 is hinged to the supporting suction cup arm 4 , and the other end is hinged to the lifting suction cup arm 3 .
[0023] Furthermore, the outer shell of the lifting drive cylinder 8 is fixed on the supporting suction cup arm 4 through a supporting seat, and the supporting seat and the outer shell of the lifting drive cylinder 8 are hinged.
[0024] Furthermore, the support suction cup arms 4 are connected and fixed by a positioning rod 11, and a plurality of positioning seats are installed on the positioning rod 11. The positioning seats are provided with positioning holes. The lifting drive shaft 6 passes through each positioning hole in turn to ensure the positioning of the lifting drive shaft 6.
[0025] Furthermore, a negative pressure sensor is installed on the vacuum suction cup 5, and a PLC single chip microcomputer is installed in the control system 1. The PLC single chip microcomputer receives the signal of the negative pressure sensor. When the negative pressure reaches the preset standard, the PLC single chip microcomputer controls the lifting drive cylinder 8 to operate, driving the lifting suction cup arm 3 to operate, thereby realizing the vacuum suction cup 5 to adsorb and separate the outer glass. The vacuum suction cup 5 is connected to an air pump to perform a vacuum operation to achieve adsorption of the glass.
[0026] Furthermore, the vacuum suction cups 5 are arranged at equal intervals to ensure uniform adsorption of the glass.
[0027] Furthermore, the lifting follower rocker 2, the lifting driving rocker 7, the lifting suction cup arm 3, and the supporting suction cup arm 4 form a parallelogram structure.
[0028] When the automatic glass separation mechanism of the present invention is used, the glass plate to be separated is first placed on the base 9, and its side is ensured to be tilted against the support plate 10 to ensure the stability of the glass. Then, the control system 1 is started, and a command is issued to the air pump on the vacuum suction cup 5 to start the vacuum operation, so that the vacuum suction cup 5 generates negative pressure.
[0029] When the negative pressure sensor on the vacuum suction cup 5 detects that the negative pressure reaches the preset standard, it will send a signal to the PLC microcontroller in the control system 1. After receiving the signal, the PLC microcontroller will control the lifting drive cylinder 8 to start action.
[0030] The output shaft of the lifting drive cylinder 8 is hinged to the lifting suction cup arm 3, so when the lifting drive cylinder 8 moves, it will drive the lifting suction cup arm 3 to move. Since a plurality of vacuum suction cups 5 are installed on one side of the lifting suction cup arm 3, these vacuum suction cups 5 will tightly adsorb the glass under the action of negative pressure.
[0031] At the same time, the support sucker arm 4 is connected with the lifting sucker arm 3 by the lifting follower rocker 2 and the lifting driving rocker 7 to form a parallelogram structure. When the lifting sucker arm 3 moves, the support sucker arm 4 will also move with it to maintain the stability of the entire mechanism.
[0032] As the lifting drive cylinder 8 continues to move, the lifting sucker arm 3 and the supporting sucker arm 4 will drive the vacuum sucker 5 and the glass adsorbed thereon to be lifted and separated. Since the vacuum suckers 5 are arranged at equal intervals, uniform adsorption and separation of the glass can be ensured.
[0033] Finally, when the glass is lifted to a certain height and completely separated, the control system 1 will issue a command to stop the action of the lifting drive cylinder 8 and turn off the air pump on the vacuum suction cup 5, so that the vacuum suction cup 5 loses negative pressure, thereby releasing the glass. At this time, the separated glass can be further processed or transported to the next process.
[0034] Finally, it should be noted that the control system 1 in this embodiment, the electronic components in the above-mentioned parts are all universal standard parts or parts known to technical personnel in this field, and their structures and principles can be known to technical personnel in this field through technical manuals or through conventional experimental methods. In the idle part of this device, all the above-mentioned electrical components are connected by wires respectively, and the specific connection means should refer to the working sequence between the electrical components in the above-mentioned working principle to complete the electrical connection, which are all well-known technologies in the field.
