[0046] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 In some embodiments, the glass conveying device 100 also includes a second power component 30, and the second power component 30 is connected to the fixed component 10. The second power component 30 is connected to the first power component 20 to realize the connection between the first power component 20 and the fixed component 10. The first power component 20 is used to drive the second power component 30 and the fixed component 10 to move together along the first direction and the direction opposite to the first direction. The second power component 30 is used to drive the fixed component 10 to move along the second direction and the direction opposite to the second direction. The second direction is perpendicular to the first direction.

[0048] The second direction may be a vertically upward direction, and the direction opposite to the second direction may be a vertically downward direction.

[0052] For example, conveyor belts 200 can be respectively set on both sides of the glass conveying device 100, and the first power component 20, the fixing component 10 and the second power component 30 can be driven by the third power component 40 to move together along the third direction, so that the glass can be placed on the conveyor belts 200 on both sides of the glass conveying device 100.

[0053] The third power assembly 40 may include a cylinder or a hydraulic cylinder, a lead screw motor, a mechanical arm or a linear module, etc.

[0054] Optionally, the glass conveying device 100 includes a bracket 60 , and the third power assembly 40 is disposed on the bracket 60 .

[0055] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2In some embodiments, the fixed component 10 is rotatably connected to the second power component 30; the glass conveying device 100 also includes a rotating component 50, which is connected to the fixed component 10 and is used to drive the fixed component 10 to rotate relative to the second power component 30.

[0056] By adopting the above scheme, the rotating component 50 can drive the fixing component 10 to rotate relative to the second power component 30, adjust the angle of the fixing component 10, facilitate the connection of the fixing component 10 with glass at different angles, and place the glass at different angles at a specified position.

[0058] Optionally, the axis of rotation of the fixing assembly 10 relative to the second power assembly 30 is perpendicular to the first direction.

[0059] Such a configuration can make it easier to adjust the angle of the fixing component 10.

[0060] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 In some embodiments, the fixing assembly 10 includes a fixing member 11 and a vacuum suction cup 12 connected to each other, the first power assembly 20 is connected to the fixing member 11, the vacuum suction cup 12 is used to absorb the glass, and the vacuum suction cup 12 can also be separated from the glass.

[0061] By adopting the above solution, the glass can be adsorbed more conveniently, and the vacuum suction cup 12 can be separated from the glass conveniently.

[0062] Optionally, a plurality of vacuum suction cups 12 are provided, and the plurality of vacuum suction cups 12 are distributed at intervals, and the plurality of vacuum suction cups 12 are used to jointly adsorb the glass.

[0065] With such arrangement, the relative positions of the plurality of vacuum suction cups 12 can be adjusted by rotating the connecting member 13 relative to the fixing member 11 , so as to facilitate the absorption of different types of glass.

[0066] For example, the connecting member may be a screw or the like.

[0067] For example, when the glass is flat glass, the connecting member 13 can be rotated relative to the fixing member 11 so that the multiple vacuum suction cups 12 are located on the same plane. When the glass is curved glass, the connecting member 13 can be rotated relative to the fixing member 11 so that the positions of the multiple vacuum suction cups 12 are adapted to the curvature of the glass.

[0068] Optionally, the connector 13 is connected to the vacuum suction cup 12 via a universal head. With this arrangement, when the glass is curved, the connector 13 can be rotated relative to the fixing member 11, and the vacuum suction cup 12 can be rotated relative to the connector 13, so that the positions and angles of the plurality of vacuum suction cups 12 are adapted to the curvature of the glass, so as to better adsorb the glass.

[0072] The fastener 14 may be a bolt or the like.

[0073] Optionally, one connecting member 13 is provided corresponding to two fastening members 14 , and the two fastening members 14 corresponding to the same connecting member 13 are respectively located on both sides of the fixing member 11 .
