Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of glass production technology equipment, in particular to a return inspection and return washing system. Background Art

[0002] Green energy such as solar photovoltaic power generation has developed rapidly in recent years. As one of the essential basic materials for solar photovoltaic cell components, photovoltaic glass has been continuously innovating and improving its production and manufacturing technology and supporting deep processing equipment. Photovoltaic glass used in solar power stations needs to be cut, edged, punched, coated or screen-printed, tempered and other deep processing before being provided to downstream companies for matching glass and batteries to form solar cell double-glass components, thereby realizing the operation of new energy power stations that convert sunlight into electricity.

[0003] During the production process of photovoltaic glass, there will often be some dirt, minor scratches and other surface damage that does not meet the scrap standard on the surface of the photovoltaic glass. At this time, the online visual inspection instrument or manual inspection will be uncertain or misjudged. The glass needs to be taken off the shelf and then manually inspected in a more detailed and comprehensive manner. After the inspection, the qualified glass needs to be stored in a unified manner and the stored glass needs to be washed to ensure the smooth surface of the glass.

[0004] In actual production, in order to save storage space, multiple inspected glasses are usually stacked with isolation paper placed between two adjacent glasses. Therefore, when transferring the glass for return washing, the isolation paper needs to be peeled off one by one and the glass needs to be moved manually. In addition, due to the continuity of the main line production, the glass that needs to be returned for return washing cannot be automatically incorporated into the main production line for return washing. It also needs to be manually moved and the time is selected to send the glass to be returned for return washing to the main production line. This process not only requires the coordinated movement of multiple people, but is also prone to scratches and scrapping of the glass due to improper movements or poor coordination of personnel, and it also takes up a lot of manpower, affecting production efficiency.

When the combination of technical solutions is contradictory or cannot be implemented, it should be deemed that such a combination of technical solutions does not exist and is not within the scope of protection required by the present utility model.

[0050] To achieve the above purpose, please refer to Figures 1 to 4As shown, the utility model proposes a return inspection and rewashing system 100, which includes a conveying device 1, a detection device 2, a cleaning device 3 and a transfer device 4. The conveying device 1 is provided with a detection position 11 and a storage position. The detection device 2 is arranged at the detection position 11. The detection device 2 is used to detect glass. The cleaning device 3 is arranged on the conveying device 1. The cleaning device 3 is used to clean glass. The transfer device 4 is arranged on the conveying device 1 and is located between the storage position and the cleaning device 3. The transfer device 4 is connected to the detection device 2 by signal. The transfer device 4 is used to transfer the detected glass to the cleaning device 3.

[0051] In this embodiment, the re-inspection and re-washing system 100 is applied to a glass production line, that is, the re-inspection and re-washing system 100 is a part of the full-process glass production line. The glass production line includes but is not limited to the melting of glass raw materials, the stretching and edge cleaning of glass strips, the cleaning of glass, the detection of glass defects, and the subsequent packaging and stacking processes. When the glass is being inspected quickly, due to the continuity and rapidity of the glass production line, some glasses have defects that cannot be immediately determined. The re-inspection and re-washing system 100 is used to re-inspect and re-wash the glass that needs to be re-inspected, and is connected to the glass production line to reinsert the glass that has passed the re-inspection and re-washing into the glass production line.

[0052] In this embodiment, if Figure 1 As shown, the conveying device 1 includes a mounting frame and a plurality of rollers arranged on the mounting frame, and the mounting frame and the plurality of rollers constitute a conveying channel to realize the whole process of glass conveying through the conveying channel, including but not limited to a series of processes such as glass from production to detection, detection to cleaning, and cleaning to packaging. At the same time, the detection device 2, the cleaning device 3 and the transfer device 4 are all arranged on the mounting frame of the conveying device 1, so that the glass located on the conveying channel can pass through the detection device 2, the cleaning device 3 and the transfer device 4 to realize the re-inspection and re-washing of the glass, effectively replacing manual handling, improving the degree of automation of glass re-inspection and re-washing, and reducing the scratch loss of glass.

[0053] In this embodiment, a detection position 11 and a storage position are provided on the conveying channel, and the return inspection and rewashing system 100 is provided with a detection device 2. The detection module is used to perform routine defect inspection on the glass on the one hand to detect various defects such as closed bubbles, open bubbles, silk screen quality, surface scratches, surface concave-convex defects, etc. that may exist on the glass surface. The detection device 2 can be a visual detection device 2. On the other hand, the detection device 2 is used to detect the conveying condition of the glass in the conveying channel and the storage condition of the glass on the storage position. The detection of the glass conveying condition in the conveying channel can be carried out by the visual detection device 2, or it can be a photoelectric counting sensor to identify the number of glasses passing through the detection position 11 in the conveying channel per minute. The detection of the glass storage condition at the storage position can be carried out by a height sensor or a weight sensor. The total thickness of the glass arranged on the storage position can be measured by the height sensor, or the total weight of the glass arranged on the storage position can be measured by the weight sensor. The thickness or weight of a single piece of glass can be combined to determine the number of glasses arranged on the storage position.

[0054] Furthermore, the transfer device 4 is connected to the detection device 2 by signal. The detection device 2 detects the production status of the glass on the conveying channel, and can control the transfer device 4 to select an appropriate time to convey the glass after secondary inspection to the cleaning device 3, or to interpolate the conveying channel to convey the cleaned glass. Specifically, there are at least two transfer devices 4, at least one transfer device 4 is arranged between the storage position and the cleaning device 3, and cooperates with the detection device 2 to transfer the glass on the storage position to the cleaning device 3, and at least one transfer device 4 is arranged between the cleaning device 3 and the detection position 11, and cooperates with the detection device 2 to transfer the cleaned glass to the conveying channel and re-pass the detection position 11 for routine inspection.

[0055] It can be understood that the return inspection and rewashing system 100 is also provided with a controller, which is respectively connected to the transfer device 4 and the detection device 2 by signals. The detection device 2 can detect the number of glasses on the storage position and the production rhythm of the glass in the conveying channel, that is, the number of glasses passing through the detection position 11 in the conveying channel per minute, so that the overall production rhythm of the glass production line at this time can be judged. When the production rhythm is faster, that is, the number of glasses in the conveying channel is large, the glass transmits the result detected by the detection device 2 to the controller, and controls the transfer device 4 to stop moving through the controller to stop transferring glass to the cleaning device 3 or stop transferring glass to the detection position 11 of the conveying channel to avoid increasing the production burden of the conveying channel. When the detection device 2 detects that the overall production rhythm of the glass production line is slow, the number of glasses in the conveying channel is small. At this time, the controller controls the transfer device 4 to continue to input glass into the cleaning device 3, or continue to convey glass to the detection position 11 of the conveying channel. Thereby, the coupling between the re-inspection and re-washing system 100 and the glass production line is improved, and adaptive changes can be made according to the production status of the glass production line. After the glass is re-inspected and re-washed, the normal operation of the glass production line can be guaranteed, the connection frequency can be increased, and the production capacity can be effectively improved.

[0056] The return inspection and rewashing system 100 of the present technical solution is provided with a conveying device 1, which is used to convey glass. A detection position 11 and a storage position are formed on the conveying device 1. The return inspection and rewashing system 100 is also provided with a detection device 2, a cleaning device 3 and a transfer device 4. The detection device 2 is arranged at the detection position 11, and the detection device 2 is used to detect whether the glass has defects. The glass after detection is temporarily stored in the storage position. The cleaning device 3 and the transfer device 4 are both arranged on the conveying device 1, and the transfer device 4 is located between the storage position and the cleaning device 3. The transfer device 4 is connected to the detection device 2 by signal. The transfer device 4 is used to transfer the glass stored in the storage position to the cleaning device 3, and the cleaning device 3 is used to clean the glass. In the present application, the detection device 2 is arranged at the detection position 11 to re-inspect the uncertain glass. At the same time, a storage position is arranged to store the glass, and cooperates with the transfer device 4 to realize automatic loading and rewashing of the glass, effectively reduce the scratch loss of the glass, and improve the production efficiency.

[0057] In one embodiment, if Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the transfer device 4 includes a lifting drive member 41, a rotating component 42 and a flipping component 43, wherein the rotating component 42 is arranged at the output end of the lifting drive member 41, the flipping component 43 is arranged at the rotating component 42, and the flipping component 43 is provided with a vacuum suction cup; wherein the rotating component 42 drives the flipping component 43 to rotate around the lifting drive member 41, and the flipping component 43 drives the vacuum suction cup to flip to change the direction.

[0058] In this embodiment, the lifting drive member 41 is arranged on the mounting frame of the conveying device 1. The lifting drive member 41 can be a cylinder, a servo motor, etc. The output end of the lifting drive member 41 moves in the vertical direction toward the direction away from the conveying device 1. The rotating component 42 is arranged at the output end of the driving member. At the same time, the flipping component 43 is arranged at the output end of the rotating component 42, and a plurality of vacuum suction cups are arranged on the flipping component 43.

[0059] It can be understood that the lifting drive 41 is used to drive the rotating component 42, the flipping component 43 and the multiple vacuum suction cups arranged on the flipping component 43 to move up and down in the vertical direction, so that the transfer device 4 can adapt to the glasses of different heights stacked at the temporary storage position 1121, and the transfer device 4 is also provided with an in-place sensor, which is connected to the lifting drive 41 signal, and the in-place sensor is arranged at the output end of the lifting drive 41. In the process of the output end of the lifting drive 41 moving up and down in the vertical direction, the in-place sensor will detect the glass in real time. When the glass is detected, it indicates that the lifting drive 41 is adjacent to the top surface of the multiple layers of stacked glass. At this time, the lifting drive 41 can reduce the speed to allow the multiple vacuum suction cups to fit the glass surface.

[0060] Furthermore, after the vacuum suction cup adheres to the glass surface, the rotating component 42 rotates around the lifting drive member 41, such as rotating in a horizontal plane or rotating in a vertical plane, to transfer the glass located in the temporary storage position 1121 to the cleaning device 3. When the rotating component 42 rotates along the vertical plane, the glass can be turned 180 degrees by the flipping component 43 to change the direction of the glass so that the glass can be placed in a specified position.

[0061] Through the transfer device 4, the automatic handling of glass can be realized. In cooperation with the conveying device 1, the detection device 2 and the cleaning device 3, the degree of automation of glass re-inspection and re-cleaning can be effectively improved, while reducing the occupation of manpower, reducing the glass scratches caused by manual handling of glass, and improving production efficiency.

[0062] In one embodiment, the rotating assembly 42 includes a rotating drive member and a rotating frame, the rotating drive member is arranged at the output end of the lifting drive member 41, the rotating frame is arranged at the output end of the rotating drive member, and the flipping assembly 43 is arranged on the rotating frame; wherein the rotating frame rotates around the lifting drive member 41 along a vertical plane.

[0063] It can be understood that the rotating drive member is arranged at the output end of the lifting drive member 41, the rotating drive member can be a servo motor, the rotating frame is a supporting structure, and is arranged at the output end of the rotating drive member. The rotating drive member can drive the rotating frame to rotate. At the same time, the flip assembly 43 is arranged on the rotating frame.

[0064] Furthermore, the lifting drive member 41 can drive the rotating assembly 42 to move up and down in the vertical direction, and the rotating drive member can drive the rotating frame, thereby driving the flip assembly 43 to rotate around the lifting drive member 41, that is, the output shaft of the rotating drive member can be extended in the vertical direction to drive the flip assembly 43 to rotate in the horizontal plane, and the output shaft of the rotating drive member can also be extended in the horizontal direction and perpendicular to the direction of glass transportation to drive the flip assembly 43 to rotate in the vertical plane.

[0065] In one embodiment, the flip assembly 43 includes a flip driving member and a mounting frame. The flip driving member is disposed on a rotating frame, and the mounting frame is disposed at an output end of the flip driving member. The mounting frame extends in a direction away from the flip driving member. The mounting frame forms a mounting plane, and the mounting plane is provided with a plurality of vacuum suction cups.

[0066] In this embodiment, the flipping driving member is arranged at the output end of the rotating driving member, the flipping driving member can be a servo motor, the mounting frame is a supporting structure, and is arranged at the output end of the flipping driving member. The flipping driving member can drive the mounting frame to rotate. The mounting frame forms a mounting plane, and a plurality of vacuum suction cups are installed on the mounting plane. The plurality of vacuum suction cups can be arranged in a rectangular array on the mounting plane.

[0067] It can be understood that after the rotating component 42 drives the flipping component 43 to rotate, the flipping component 43 can drive the glass to flip 180 degrees to change the orientation of the glass so that the glass can be placed in a designated position. The mounting frame is a closed frame structure, and the mounting frame forms a flat mounting plane, so that the mounting plane can remain parallel to the glass when absorbing the glass, and remain parallel to the conveying channel when placing the glass. The mounting plane is provided with a plurality of vacuum suction cups, and a vacuum generator is also provided on the rotating component 42 or the lifting drive component 41. The vacuum generator is connected to the plurality of vacuum suction cups through a pipeline, so that the plurality of vacuum suction cups form a vacuum to absorb the glass. The flipping component 43 cooperates with the rotating component 42 to effectively improve the degree of automation of the transfer device 4, improve the flexibility of glass transfer, and reduce the scratch loss that may be caused by manual glass transfer.

[0068] In one embodiment, if Figure 1 As shown, the detection position 11 includes a first detection position 111 and a first detection position 112, the first detection position 111 and the first detection position 112 are adjacent to each other, and the first detection position 111 is upstream of the first detection position 112; the detection device 2 includes a first detection module 21 and a second detection module 22, the first detection module 21 is arranged at the first detection position 111, and the second detection module 22 is arranged at the first detection position 112, the first detection module 21 is used to detect defects in the glass, and the second detection module 22 is used to detect the production status of the production line.

[0069] In this embodiment, the first detection position 111 and the first detection position 112 are both arranged in the conveying channel. The first detection module 21 arranged in the first detection position 111 is used to perform defect detection on the glass, including conventional rapid detection and secondary detailed detection. After the first detection position 111 detects the glass, if there is glass that cannot be determined whether it has defects, the glass will be further detected to fully determine whether the glass has defects. The second detection module 22 arranged in the first detection position 112 is used to detect the conveying condition of the glass in the conveying channel and the storage condition of the glass on the temporary storage position 1121.

[0070] It can be understood that the first inspection module 21 is used to perform routine defect inspection on the glass to detect various defects that may exist on the glass surface, such as closed bubbles, open bubbles, silk screen quality, surface scratches, surface concave-convex defects, etc. The first inspection module 21 can be a visual inspection device 2. Furthermore, after the glass is subjected to a secondary inspection at the first inspection position 111, the glass will be transferred to the temporary storage position 1121, where the glass will be temporarily stored. At the same time, the return inspection and rewashing system 100 also includes a cleaning device 3 and a transfer device 4. The transfer device 4 can transfer the glass located at the temporary storage position 1121 to the cleaning device 3. The cleaning device 3 will transport the glass to the conveying channel again after cleaning.

[0071] It can be understood that the first inspection position 112 is provided with a temporary storage position 1121, and the temporary storage position 1121 is used to temporarily store glass. That is, after the first inspection position 112 conducts a comprehensive and detailed inspection on the glass, the glass will be transported to the temporary storage position 1121. The first inspection position 112 is provided with an elevator, and the elevator can be raised or lowered in the vertical direction to place multiple pieces of overlapping glass.

[0072] At the same time, the detection of the glass conveying situation in the conveying channel can be carried out by a visual detection device 2, or a photoelectric counting sensor, to identify the number of glasses passing through the first detection position 112 in the conveying channel per minute, and the glass storage situation at the temporary storage position 1121 can be detected by a height sensor or a weight sensor. The total thickness of the glass located at the temporary storage position 1121 can be measured by a height sensor, or the total weight of the glass located at the temporary storage position 1121 can be measured by a weight sensor, and the thickness or weight of a single piece of glass can be combined to determine the number of glasses located at the temporary storage position 1121.

[0073] Furthermore, the transfer device 4 is connected to the second detection module 22 by signal. The second detection module 22 detects the production status of the glass on the conveying channel, and can control the transfer device 4 to select an appropriate time to convey the glass after secondary inspection to the cleaning device 3, or to interpolate the conveying of the cleaned glass into the conveying channel. Specifically, there are at least two transfer devices 4, at least one transfer device 4 is arranged between the temporary storage position 1121 and the cleaning device 3, and cooperates with the second detection module 22 to transfer the glass on the temporary storage position 1121 to the cleaning device 3, and at least one transfer device 4 is arranged between the cleaning device 3 and the first detection position 111, and cooperates with the second detection module 22 to transfer the cleaned glass to the conveying channel, and re-pass through the first detection position 111 for routine inspection.

[0074] It can be understood that the return inspection and rewashing system 100 is also provided with a controller, which is respectively connected to the transfer device 4 and the second detection module 22 by signal. The second detection module 22 can detect the number of glasses on the temporary storage position 1121, and detect the production rhythm of the glass in the conveying channel, that is, the number of glasses passing through the first detection position 112 in the conveying channel per minute, so as to judge the overall production rhythm of the glass production line at this time. When the production rhythm is faster, that is, the number of glasses in the conveying channel is large, the second detection module 22 transmits the detected result to the controller, and controls the transfer device 4 to stop moving through the controller to stop transferring glass to the cleaning device 3 or stop transferring glass to the first detection position 111 of the conveying channel to avoid increasing the production burden of the conveying channel. When the second detection module 22 detects that the overall production rhythm of the glass production line is slow, the number of glasses in the conveying channel is small. At this time, the controller controls the transfer device 4 to continue to input glass into the cleaning device 3, or continue to convey glass to the first detection position 111 of the conveying channel. Thereby, the coupling between the re-inspection and re-washing system 100 and the glass production line is improved, and adaptive changes can be made according to the production status of the glass production line. After the glass is re-inspected and re-washed, the normal operation of the glass production line can be guaranteed, the connection frequency can be increased, and the production capacity can be effectively improved.

[0075] In one embodiment, the conveying channel includes a conveying section and a cleaning section, the first detection module 21 and the second detection module 22 are respectively arranged in the conveying section and the cleaning section, and the cleaning device 3 and the transfer device 4 are arranged in the cleaning section.

[0076] In this embodiment, the conveying section is a part coupled with the glass production line, that is, after a series of processes such as stretching and edge cleaning, the glass enters the conveying section of the inspection and rewashing system 100. The above-mentioned first detection position 111 is arranged in the conveying section, so that part of the first detection module 21 is arranged in the conveying section, and the glass entering the conveying section will pass through the first detection position 111 for conventional rapid detection. At the same time, part of the second detection module 22 is arranged in the conveying section to detect the number of glasses passing through the first detection position 111 per minute, thereby realizing the detection of the glass conveying rhythm of the conveying channel, that is, the production rhythm of the glass production line.

[0077] Furthermore, the cleaning section is a portion coupled with the conveying section, and the cleaning device 3 and the transfer device 4 are arranged on the cleaning section. At the same time, another part of the first detection module 21 and another part of the second detection module 22 are arranged on the cleaning section. Specifically, another part of the first detection module 21 is arranged on the first detection position 111, and is used to perform a comprehensive and detailed secondary inspection of the glass after routine inspection at the first detection position 111. Another part of the second detection module 22 is arranged on the temporary storage position 1121 of the first detection position 112 to detect the amount of glass on the temporary storage position 1121.

[0078] It can be understood that the conveying section is used to convey the glass produced by the glass production line on the one hand, and on the other hand, perform conventional rapid inspection on the glass at the first inspection position 111 through the first inspection module 21. The cleaning section is connected to the conveying section, and together they form a circulatory closed-loop conveying channel, so that when the first inspection position 111 detects uncertain glass, it can be taken off the shelf to the first inspection position 111 in the cleaning section, and undergo a comprehensive and detailed secondary inspection through the first inspection module 21, and after being cleaned by the cleaning device 3, it returns to the conveying section to form a closed loop. The cleaning section is provided with a cleaning device 3, a transfer device 4, a temporary storage position 1121, etc., to realize automatic re-inspection, transfer and re-washing of the glass, effectively improve production efficiency, and reduce glass scratch loss.

[0079] In one embodiment, if Figure 1 As shown, the second detection module 22 includes a storage cell quantity detection unit 221 and a production line rhythm detection unit 222. Both the storage cell quantity detection unit 221 and the production line rhythm detection unit 222 are connected to the transfer device 4 by signal. The storage cell quantity detection unit 221 is used to detect the quantity of stored glass, and the production line rhythm detection unit 222 is used to detect the rhythm of the conveying device 1 in conveying glass.

The second detection module 22 includes a storage piece quantity detection unit 221 and a production line rhythm detection unit 222. The storage piece quantity detection unit 221 is arranged at the temporary storage position 1121. The storage piece quantity detection unit 221 can detect the number of glasses on the temporary storage position 1121. The storage piece quantity detection unit 221 can be a height sensor, a weight sensor, etc., and the number of glasses can be obtained by detecting the height or weight of the glass on the temporary storage position 1121. The production line rhythm detection unit 222 can be a photoelectric counting sensor or a visual sensor, which is used to detect the number of glasses passing through the first detection position 112 in the conveying section per minute, so as to determine the production rhythm of the conveying channel and the glass production line at this time.

[0081] It can be understood that both the storage sheet quantity detection unit 221 and the production line rhythm detection unit 222 are connected to the transfer device 4 by signal. When the storage sheet quantity detection unit 221 detects that there is a large amount of glass stored in the temporary storage position 1121, or the glass transmission rhythm of the conveying section is fast, the transfer device 4 is controlled by the controller to slow down or stop the movement, so as to reduce the glass from the temporary storage position 1121 to be transported to the cleaning device 3, and / or reduce the glass transported by the cleaning device 3 to the first detection position 111 of the conveying section, thereby improving the coupling between the return inspection and return washing system 100 and the glass production line. On the basis of realizing automatic return inspection and return washing, glass is timely inserted into the glass production line according to the production status of the glass production line to improve production efficiency.

[0082] In one embodiment, if Figure 1 As shown, the first detection position 112 is provided with a temporary storage position 1121, which is located between the first detection position 111 and the transfer device 4; the conveying device 1 is also provided with a lifting platform, which forms the temporary storage position 1121, and the temporary storage position 1121 is used to temporarily store glass.

The placement plate forms a temporary storage position 1121. The drive can drive the placement plate to rise or fall in the vertical direction, and facilitate the conveying channel to place glass on the placement plate. At the same time, the temporary storage position 1121 can be set upstream of the cleaning device 3, that is, the glass stored in the temporary storage position 1121 will enter the cleaning device 3 for cleaning after being detected at the first detection position 111. It can also be set downstream of the cleaning device 3 for temporarily storing the returned glass, which is not limited here.

The positioning device 5 is arranged between the transfer device 4 and the cleaning device 3. When the transfer device 4 transfers the glass that has undergone secondary inspection to the cleaning device 3, the transfer device 4 first places the glass in the conveying channel, and then conveys the glass to the cleaning device 3 through the conveying device 1 for cleaning. At this time, the positioning device 5 arranged between the transfer device 4 and the cleaning device 3 is used to calibrate and position the glass; or after being cleaned by the cleaning device 3, the transfer device 4 transfers the cleaned glass to the conveying channel and re-enters the first detection position 111 through the conveying section. At this time, the positioning device 5 is arranged between the cleaning device 3 and the first detection position 111 to position and calibrate the glass after the return wash.

[0087] It can be understood that the positioning drive member 51 can drive the first wheel group unit 521 and the second wheel group unit 522 to move closer to or away from each other, so that the limiting channel 523 formed by the first wheel group unit 521 and the second wheel group unit 522 can expand or shrink in a direction perpendicular to the conveying channel, thereby changing the width of the limiting channel 523 to adapt to glasses of different sizes. At the same time, the position of the glass can also be calibrated by the first wheel group unit 521 and the second wheel group unit 522 to avoid the glass from being skewed, so that it can be in the correct position during the process of entering the cleaning device 3 and subsequently being incorporated into the conveying section, thereby ensuring the cleaning effect and the connection effect.
