Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
[0023] The present invention provides an automatic box-splitting system for insulating glass, as Figures 1 - 3 shown, which includes a shuttle car track mechanism 8. A glass dispatching shuttle car 6 is installed on the shuttle car track mechanism 8. A first glass storage and maintenance area 5, a second glass storage and maintenance area 7, and a third glass storage and maintenance area 10 are respectively arranged on both sides of the shuttle car track mechanism 8. A finished product shipping and packing area 9 is arranged on one side of the third glass storage and maintenance area 10. A gantry sheet unloading system 2 is arranged near the incoming material place of the production line on the shuttle car track mechanism 8. The gantry sheet unloading system 2 is a conventional unloading device in glass processing in the prior art and will not be described in detail here. A first sheet unloading station 3 and a second sheet unloading station 4 are installed on the gantry sheet unloading system 2. The core of the system includes the shuttle car track mechanism 8 and the glass dispatching shuttle car 6. They work together to accurately distribute the produced insulating glass to different storage and maintenance areas (5, 7, 10) according to requirements, greatly improving the efficiency and accuracy of classified storage. At the same time, the system is also equipped with a gantry sheet unloading system 2, which is provided with a first sheet unloading station 3 and a second sheet unloading station 4, and can quickly and orderly complete the sheet unloading operation of the insulating glass on the production line, further ensuring the smoothness and high efficiency of the production process. In addition, a finished product shipping and packing area 9 is arranged on one side of the third glass storage and maintenance area 10, which is convenient for the subsequent shipping and packing operations of the stored insulating glass, realizing one-stop automatic management from production to shipping. Generally speaking, the technical effect of the present invention is remarkable, bringing an efficient and accurate automatic box-splitting and storage solution for the insulating glass production line.
[0024] In this embodiment, the shuttle car track mechanism 8 is composed of two parallel track rods, which is convenient for the linear movement of the glass dispatching shuttle car 6.
[0025] Specifically, it further includes a control system 1 located on one side of the first glass storage and maintenance area 5. A PLC single-chip microcomputer is installed in the control system 1 to control the operation and shutdown of each electrical appliance.
[0026] Furthermore, a number of glass support brackets arranged in sequence are provided in the first glass storage and maintenance area 5, the second glass storage and maintenance area 7, and the third glass storage and maintenance area 10 for supporting the glass.
[0027] Furthermore, track wheels are installed at the bottom of the glass transfer shuttle 6. The glass transfer shuttle 6 moves linearly along the shuttle track mechanism 8 through the track wheels. The track wheels are driven to rotate by a motor, facilitating the movement of the glass transfer shuttle 6.
[0028] Furthermore, the glass transfer shuttle 6 includes a moving seat 61. An activity frame 62 is hinged to the top of the moving seat 61. The number of the activity frames 62 is two, which are symmetrically arranged and located on both sides of the glass. A number of washers 64 are installed on the activity frame 62. A driving cylinder 63 is installed on the top of the moving seat 61. The activity frame 62 is driven by the driving cylinder 63 to adjust the angle, and the glass is clamped and positioned by abutting against both sides of the glass.
[0029] Furthermore, the output shaft of the driving cylinder 63 is hinged to the activity frame 62, and one end of the outer shell of the driving cylinder 63 is hinged to the top of the moving seat 61, facilitating driving the activity frame 62 to flip and fit on the surface of the glass.
[0030] Furthermore, the washers 64 are arranged at equal intervals to ensure uniform support and lifting of the glass.
[0031] When the automatic glass binning system of the utility model is in use, first, the insulating glass processed on the production line is transported to the gantry unloading system 2. The first unloading station 3 and the second unloading station 4 on this system will quickly and orderly complete the unloading operation of the insulating glass, ensuring the smoothness of the production process.
[0032] Then, the glass transfer shuttle 6 moves on the shuttle track mechanism 8. The shuttle track mechanism 8 is composed of two parallel track rods, facilitating the linear movement of the shuttle. Track wheels are installed at the bottom of the glass transfer shuttle 6 and are driven to rotate by a motor, enabling the shuttle to move freely on the track.
[0033] When the glass transfer shuttle 6 moves to the designated storage and maintenance area (5, 7, 10), the moving seat 61 thereon will be positioned under the glass to be stored. At this time, the driving cylinder 63 starts to work, pushing the activity frame 62 to flip and fit on the surface of the glass. A number of washers 64 arranged at equal intervals are installed on the activity frame 62, and they can uniformly support and lift the glass to ensure that the glass will not be damaged during storage.
[0034] Meanwhile, the PLC single-chip microcomputer in the control system 1 located on one side of the first glass storage and maintenance area 5 controls the operation of the entire system. It will, according to production requirements, instruct the glass dispatching shuttle car 6 to accurately allocate the glass to different storage and maintenance areas, and monitor the situation in the storage area in real time to ensure the accuracy and efficiency of the entire storage process.
[0035] When the glass reaches the set maintenance time in the storage and maintenance area, the glass dispatching shuttle car 6 will be instructed to move to this area again, take out the maintained glass, and transport it to the finished product shipping and packing area 9 for subsequent shipping and packing operations. In this way, the one-stop automated management from the production to the shipping of insulating glass is completed.
