[0009] As a preferred solution, the push rod assembly includes a moving rod slidably set in a limit groove, and a base corresponding to the position of each glass grabbing mechanism is installed on the moving rod. The base is provided with an inclined platform that contacts the two limit rods respectively, and the contact surfaces between the inclined platform and the limit rods are both inclined surfaces.

[0010] As a preferred solution, when the moving rod moves toward the front side close to the limiting rod, the limiting rod on the left side moves toward the right side, and the other limiting rod on the right side moves toward the left side.

[0011] As a preferred solution, a push rod extending to the outside of the lifting frame is installed at the upper end of the moving rod.

[0013] As a preferred solution, an overflow channel is provided in the inner cavity of the etching box, and the height of the liquid inlet above the overflow channel is higher than the height of the glass.

[0014] Compared with the existing technology, the advantages of the utility model are:

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0024] The following is a further detailed description of the specific implementation of the present invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. The following embodiments or drawings are used to illustrate the present invention, but are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention.

[0025] An efficient etching machine for foldable flexible ultra-thin glass, such as Figures 1 to 4 As shown, it includes an etching box 1 and a lifting frame 2, the lifting frame 2 is located above the etching box 1 and connected to the lifting cylinder 3 in the etching box 1, nine drainage boxes 4 are arranged in the front-to-back direction and transversely arranged at the bottom of the inner cavity of the etching box 1, the drainage box 4 is connected to the etching solution supply system in the equipment, the drainage box 4 is provided with a plurality of drainage holes 5 with openings facing upward and arranged in the front-to-back direction, and placement grooves 6 for placing glass are formed between adjacent drainage boxes 4, the inner cavity of the etching box 1 is provided with an overflow channel 19, the height of the liquid inlet above the overflow channel 19 is higher than the height of the glass 20, and eight groups of glass grabbing mechanisms 7 located above each placement groove 6 are installed on the lifting frame 2.

[0026] In order to achieve the effect of increasing the contact area between the glass 20 and the etching solution, the placement groove 6 and the glass grabbing mechanism 7 only provide a lateral limiting effect on the glass 20 in the left and right directions within a certain range, and do not directly contact the surface of the glass 20 for the fixing effect. The drainage box 4 forms an upward water flow on both sides of the placement groove 6 to limit the bending curvature of the glass 20 due to its flexible characteristics, thereby preventing the glass 20 from detaching from the glass grabbing mechanism 7 due to excessive bending.

[0027] like Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the glass grabbing mechanism 7 includes two mobile frames 8 installed on the lifting frame 2, and the two mobile frames 8 are symmetrically distributed on the left and right sides of the placement slot 6. A plurality of grabbing rods 9 are installed at the lower end of the mobile frames 8. The grabbing rods 9 use a material that is resistant to corrosion by etching solutions. The upper ends of the grabbing rods 9 are installed on the mobile frames 8 through nuts 17. The grabbing rods 9 are rotatably connected to the mobile frames 8. A push rod assembly 10 that can uniformly drive all glass grabbing mechanisms 7 to clamp the glass is installed in the lifting frame 2.

[0028] The grabbing rods 9 are immersed in the etching solution to provide a lateral limiting effect for the glass 20. In addition, the grabbing rods 9 can also be close to each other to clamp the glass 20, which is convenient for placing the glass 20 into and taking it out of the etching box 1. The rotatable grabbing rods 9 can reduce damage to the surface of the glass 20 when personnel install and remove the glass 20.

[0029] like Figure 2 and Figure 6 As shown, a limiting groove 11 is provided in the lifting frame 2, a connecting frame 12 is installed on the upper end of the moving frame 8, the upper end of the connecting frame 12 extends into the limiting groove 11 and is provided with a limiting rod 18, and the push rod assembly 10 is in contact with the limiting rod 18.

[0030] like Figure 6 As shown, the push rod assembly 10 includes a moving rod 13 slidably set in a limiting groove 11, and a base 14 corresponding to the position of each glass grabbing mechanism 7 is installed on the moving rod 13. An inclined platform 15 is provided on the base 14, which is respectively in contact with two limiting rods 18. The contact surfaces between the inclined platform 15 and the limiting rods 18 are both inclined surfaces. A push rod 16 extending to the outside of the lifting frame 2 is installed on the upper end of the moving rod 13.

[0031] When the moving rod 13 moves toward the front side close to the limiting rod 18, the limiting rod 18 on the left side moves toward the right side, and the other limiting rod 18 on the right side moves toward the left side.

[0032] By controlling the moving rod 13, a force can be uniformly applied to all the connecting frames 12, thereby realizing the function of uniformly controlling all the moving frames 8 to move closer and clamp the glass 20 through the grabbing rod 9. In addition, after the moving rod 13 is controlled to be reset, the moving frame 8 that loses the force applied by the moving rod 13 can no longer clamp the glass 20, thereby simplifying the operating steps of clamping and releasing the glass 20.

[0033] The above are only preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention in any form. Any simple modifications or equivalent changes made to the above embodiments based on the technical essence of the present invention fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
