Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of glass processing, in particular to a cleaning mechanism and a glass substrate breaking device. Background Art

[0002] Before a glass substrate is processed into a finished product, it needs to undergo a scribing and breaking process. After the scribing motor in the glass substrate breaking device drives the scribing blade to scribble on the surface of the glass substrate, the breaking rod in the breaking mechanism breaks the glass substrate along the scribing track.

[0003] During the breaking process, glass fragments can fall or adhere to the breaking rod, leaving a large amount of glass debris on the rod's surface. This not only results in high particle size in the semi-finished glass substrates, but also can cause cracks during the breaking process, reducing product yield. Furthermore, after prolonged breaking operations, the glass fragments on the breaking rod become a source of dust, disrupting the surrounding operating environment. This necessitates stopping the machine to clean the breaking rod to avoid further damage to the glass substrates, reducing production efficiency. Utility Model Content

It can be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present utility model, rather than limiting the present utility model.

In addition, the terms "first" and "second" are only used for distinction in description and have no special meaning.

[0031] The technical solution of the present utility model will be further described below in conjunction with the drawings and through specific embodiments.

[0032] As Figure 1 and Figure 2 shown, this embodiment provides a glass substrate breaking device, which is mainly used for the scribing and breaking process of glass substrates so as to make the glass substrates meet specific production size and specification requirements.

[0033] Specifically, the glass substrate breaking device includes a frame 10, a scribing mechanism, a breaking mechanism, a transmission mechanism, etc. The scribing mechanism includes a scribing driving member 20 and a scribing tool head. The scribing driving member 20 is installed on the frame 10, and the output end of the scribing driving member 20 is connected to the scribing tool head to drive the scribing tool head to scribe along the surface of the glass substrate. The breaking mechanism includes a breaking driving member and a breaking rod. The breaking driving member drives the breaking rod to move up and down to break the glass substrate along the scribing trajectory. The above-mentioned scribing driving member 20 and breaking driving member can be a motor or a cylinder, etc. Since the glass substrate breaking device is an existing device, other structures and working processes of the glass substrate breaking device will not be elaborated herein.

[0034] During the breaking process, glass fragments can fall or adhere to the breaking rod, leaving a large amount of glass debris on the rod's surface. This not only results in high particle size in the semi-finished glass substrates, but also can cause cracks during the breaking process, reducing product yield. Furthermore, after prolonged breaking operations, the glass fragments on the breaking rod become a source of dust, disrupting the surrounding operating environment. This necessitates stopping the machine to clean the breaking rod to avoid further damage to the glass substrates, reducing production efficiency.

[0035] To solve the above problems, Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, this embodiment also provides a cleaning mechanism comprising a transmission frame 1, a drive assembly, and a cleaning member 2. The transmission frame 1 is connected to the output end of a scribing drive member 20 of a glass substrate breaking device to synchronize the movement of the transmission frame 1 and the scribing blade of the glass substrate breaking device. The drive assembly is mounted on the transmission frame 1. The drive assembly is in transmission connection with the cleaning member 2 to drive the cleaning member 2 between an initial position that avoids the breaking rod of the glass substrate breaking device and a cleaning position in which the cleaning member 2 abuts the surface of the breaking rod. When the cleaning member 2 is in the cleaning position, the cleaning member 2 can move synchronously with the transmission frame 1 to clean the surface of the breaking rod. The drive assembly drives the cleaning member 2 from the initial position to the cleaning position, causing the cleaning member 2 to abut the surface of the breaking rod. When the scribing drive member 20 drives the scribing blade to scribing, it simultaneously drives the transmission frame 1 to move synchronously, causing the cleaning member 2 to move along the scribing trajectory along the surface of the breaking rod to clean the surface of the breaking rod. This eliminates the need to shut down the glass substrate breaking device, enabling online cleaning of the breaking rod and improving production efficiency. At the same time, the surface cleanliness of the breaking rod is ensured, the breaking quality of the glass substrate is improved, and thus the product yield of the breaking process is improved. In addition, the cleaning mechanism and the scribing blade share the same scribing drive member 20, which simplifies the structure of the cleaning mechanism and improves the integration of the glass substrate breaking device.

[0036] It should be noted that if Figure 2 As shown, the left side of the frame 10 is the outer side of the glass substrate breaking device, and the right side of the frame 10 is the inner side of the glass substrate breaking device. The scribing drive 20 is generally installed on the inner side of the frame 10 to improve the protection of the scribing drive 20. One end of the transmission frame 1 is connected to the output end of the scribing drive 20 so that the transmission frame 1 and the scribing cutter head are synchronized and move at the same time. The breaking rod is basically parallel to the scribing trajectory of the scribing cutter head, and the breaking rod is located below the scribing cutter head. Therefore, when the transmission frame 1 moves with the scribing cutter head, the cleaning member 2 can move from one end of the breaking rod to the other end of the breaking rod to complete the cleaning operation of the surface of the breaking rod. When the cleaning is completed, the cleaning member 2 disengages from the breaking rod and returns to the initial position to prevent the cleaning member 2 from interfering with the subsequent breaking process.

[0037] Specifically, the transmission frame 1 includes a plurality of connecting pipes 11 connected in sequence. The connection position and connection angle between two adjacent connecting pipes 11 are adjustable. By adjusting the connection position of two adjacent connecting pipes 11, the length of the transmission frame 1 can be adjusted. By adjusting the connection angle of two adjacent connecting pipes 11, the structure and extension direction of the transmission frame 1 can be adjusted. At the same time, the number of the connecting pipes 11 can be flexibly adjusted according to the installation requirements of the cleaning mechanism, so that the length and structure of the transmission frame 1 can be adaptively adjusted according to the installation requirements, improving the versatility and installation flexibility of the transmission frame 1.

[0038] As Figure 2 shown, the transmission frame 1 of this embodiment is generally a U-shaped frame. The transmission frame 1 extends from the inner side of the frame 10 to the outer side of the frame 10, so that the drive assembly is installed on the outer side of the frame 10, avoiding occupying the space inside the frame 10, thereby avoiding interference with the scribing and breaking process inside the frame 10 by the cleaning mechanism, and realizing the safe assembly of the cleaning mechanism.

[0039] In this embodiment, the connecting pipe 11 is provided with a plurality of mounting holes for bolts to pass through. Two adjacent connecting pipes 11 are fixedly connected by bolts. When the transmission frame 1 is assembled, two adjacent connecting pipes 11 are arranged at a preset angle and the mounting holes of the two connecting pipes 11 are coaxially arranged. The bolts pass through the two coaxial mounting holes in sequence to lock and fix two adjacent connecting pipes 11. The plurality of connecting pipes 11 are detachably assembled by bolts, improving the structural strength of the transmission frame 1 and the simplicity of the assembly operation. In other embodiments, two adjacent connecting pipes 11 can also be reliably assembled by welding or other means.

[0040] It should be noted that the cleaning member 2 of this embodiment is a brush. The brush has a good cleaning effect and is not easy to adhere to glass debris, so that the brush is easy to clean. In other embodiments, the cleaning member 2 can also be a cleaning component such as a felt piece, which is not specifically limited herein.

[0041] As Figure 1 and Figure 2 shown, the cleaning mechanism further includes a dust collection assembly. The dust collection assembly is installed at the initial position and can clean the cleaning member 2 located at the initial position. Each time the cleaning member 2 cleans the breaking rod, it will return to the initial position to facilitate the subsequent breaking process. After the cleaning member 2 returns to the initial position, the dust collection assembly performs a cleaning operation on the cleaning member 2 to remove the glass debris that may adhere to the cleaning member 2, ensuring the cleanliness of the cleaning member 2 when it cleans the breaking rod next time, so as to improve the cleaning effect of the cleaning member 2.

[0042] Specifically, the dust collection assembly includes a dust box 5, a suction pipe 6, and a vacuum pump. The dust box 5 is installed below the cleaning member 2 in the initial position. One end of the suction pipe 6 is connected to the dust box 5, and the other end of the suction pipe 6 is connected to the suction port of the vacuum pump. The top of the dust box 5 has a dust suction port. When the cleaning member 2 returns to the initial position, it is located directly above the dust box 5. The vacuum pump is turned on to absorb glass fragments adhered to the cleaning member 2. Under the action of the negative pressure environment in the dust box 5, the glass fragments are sucked into the dust box 5 through the dust suction port, ensuring the cleanliness of the cleaning member 2. It is understandable that the above-mentioned vacuum pump can be the vacuum pump of the original vacuum adsorption system in the glass substrate breaking device to simplify the structure of the cleaning mechanism and reduce costs.

[0043] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the driving assembly includes a lifting drive member 3 installed on the transmission frame 1, and the lifting drive member 3 drives the cleaning member 2 to move up and down between the initial position and the cleaning position along the height direction. It should be noted that the initial position and the cleaning position of this embodiment are spaced apart along the height direction (up and down direction in the figure) and the initial position is located above the cleaning position. When the cleaning member 2 is in the initial position, the cleaning member 2 is out of contact with the breaking rod; when the cleaning member 2 is in the cleaning position, the cleaning member 2 abuts against the surface of the breaking rod. Before the marking head starts marking, the lifting drive member 3 first drives the cleaning member 2 down from the initial position to the cleaning position so that the cleaning member 2 abuts against the surface of the breaking rod, and then moves synchronously with the marking tape head and the transmission frame 1 to realize the cleaning operation of the breaking rod.

[0044] Furthermore, the drive assembly includes a rotary drive member 4, the output end of which is connected to the cleaning member 2 to drive the cleaning member 2 to rotate. A lifting drive member 3 is in transmission connection with the rotary drive member 4, thereby driving the cleaning member 2 to move up and down through the rotary drive member 4. The lifting drive member 3 can be connected to the rotary drive member 4 via one or more connecting tubes 11. The output end of the rotary drive member 4 is connected to the shaft of the brush to drive the brush to rotate, thereby improving the cleaning effect of the brush on the surface of the breaking rod.

[0045] In this embodiment, the lifting drive member 3 and / or the rotating drive member 4 are cylinders. Both the lifting drive member 3 and the rotating drive member 4 are cylinders. Cylinders have a simple structure and are relatively small, making them easy to install and maintain, thereby making the structure of the cleaning mechanism more compact. In other embodiments, the driving structures of the lifting drive member 3 and the rotating drive member 4 can be the same or different. For example, the lifting drive member 3 can be a motor or a hydraulic cylinder, and the rotating drive member 4 can be a rotary motor, etc., which are not listed here one by one.

[0046] The above embodiments only illustrate the basic principles and characteristics of the present utility model. The present utility model is not limited by the above embodiments. Without departing from the spirit and scope of the present utility model, various changes and modifications can be made to the present utility model, and these changes and modifications all fall within the scope of the present utility model claimed. The scope of protection claimed for the present utility model is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
