Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of glass panel processing equipment, in particular to an automatic grinding production line for glass panels. Background Art

[0002] Glass panel side grinding equipment is a device specifically designed for processing the edges of glass panels. It uses a precise grinding process to eliminate burrs and stress after glass cutting, and improve the strength and smoothness of the glass panel edges. The grinding process generally includes coarse grinding, semi-finishing grinding, and fine grinding. After cutting, the glass panel has two sets of long sides and short sides, so the long sides and short sides need to be ground multiple times to achieve the required precision. In order to improve processing efficiency, the existing grinding process uses a production line composed of multiple grinding equipment to perform a combination of coarse grinding, semi-finishing grinding, and fine grinding on the long and short sides of the glass panel. However, each device only performs one of the coarse grinding, semi-finishing grinding, and fine grinding processes, resulting in low processing efficiency. At the same time, the glass panels are frequently moved between equipment, further compressing effective working time and affecting output. Utility Model Content

[0003] In response to the above-mentioned problems, the purpose of the present invention is to design an automatic glass panel grinding production line to realize several combined processings of rough grinding, semi-fine grinding and fine grinding of the long and short sides of the glass panels, as well as automatic handling and transfer of the glass panels, thereby improving the efficiency and output of the glass panel side grinding.

[0004] The purpose of the utility model is achieved through the following technical solutions:

[0005] An automatic glass panel grinding production line is designed, comprising two groups of grinding mechanisms for grinding the long and short sides of the glass panels, respectively. Each group of the grinding mechanisms comprises a number of grinding assemblies. A transfer and transport mechanism for changing the direction of the glass panels is provided between the two groups of the grinding mechanisms. A loading and transport mechanism for automatically transporting the glass panels to be processed is provided upstream of one of the grinding mechanisms, and a unloading and transport mechanism for automatically transporting the processed glass panels is provided downstream of the other grinding mechanism.

[0006] The automatic glass panel grinding production line designed in this scheme includes two sets of grinding mechanisms, namely the short side grinding mechanism and the long side grinding mechanism. The production line is composed of a loading and conveying mechanism, a short side grinding mechanism, a transfer and conveying mechanism, a long side grinding mechanism, and a unloading and conveying mechanism in the direction of glass panel transmission. Of course, the structures of the two sets of grinding mechanisms are exactly the same, and the grinding order of the short and long sides can be interchanged by adjusting the setting program. The grinding mechanism is equipped with several grinding components. By configuring different tools, it can realize the free combination processing of rough grinding, semi-finishing grinding and fine grinding. For example, if three sets of grinding components are set, and the rough grinding tools, semi-finishing grinding tools and fine grinding tools are configured in sequence, the serial processing of rough grinding, semi-finishing grinding and fine grinding can be realized. Initially, the short side of the glass panel is parallel to the conveyor. The glass panel to be processed is transported by the conveyor to the pickup position of the loading and handling mechanism. The loading and handling mechanism automatically transfers the glass panel to the short side grinding mechanism, where the short side of the glass panel is ground. The transfer mechanism then rotates the glass panel 90 degrees, reversing its direction so that its long side is parallel to the conveyor direction. The panel is then transferred to the long side grinding mechanism, where it is ground. The unloading and handling mechanism then transfers the processed glass panel to the next process. The seamless integration of these mechanisms enables automatic side grinding and transfer, improving the efficiency and output of side grinding.

[0007] Furthermore, the transfer and transport mechanism includes a clamping assembly for clamping the glass panel, a rotating assembly for driving the clamping assembly to rotate to change the placement direction of the glass panel, and a clamping drive module for driving the clamping assembly to lift and translate.

[0008] The transfer mechanism completes the transfer of the glass panel between the short side grinding mechanism and the long side grinding mechanism. The glass panel processed on the short side grinding mechanism moves to the unloading position. The clamping assembly clamps the glass panel from both sides of the short side of the glass panel. Then the clamping drive module drives the glass panel to rise, and then rotates 90 degrees under the drive of the rotating assembly to make the long side of the glass panel parallel to the conveying direction. Finally, it is driven by the clamping drive module to move horizontally to the long side grinding mechanism and place the glass panel on the processing platform.

[0009] Furthermore, the clamping drive module includes a lifting component for driving the clamping component to move up and down, and a translation component for moving the glass panel from a lower position of one of the grinding mechanisms to a higher position of another grinding mechanism.

[0010] The transfer and transport mechanism also includes a frame, and the translation assembly includes a crossbeam slidably mounted on the frame, and a crossbeam drive unit that drives the crossbeam. A slide rail and a rack are mounted on the top of the frame, and the ends of the crossbeam are fixedly connected to the sliders on the slide rails via fixed plates. Two sets of crossbeam drive units are provided, one on each fixed plate at each end of the crossbeam. A gear meshing with the rack is mounted on the output end of the crossbeam. The two sets of crossbeam drive units simultaneously drive the gears to rotate, thereby driving the crossbeam and the crossbeam drive units to move smoothly. A lifting assembly includes a lifting base mounted on the crossbeam, a lifting shaft slidably connected to the lifting base, and a lifting drive unit that drives the lifting shaft up and down. The lifting base is fixed in the middle of the crossbeam. A slide rail and a rack are mounted on the lifting shaft, which is slidably connected to the lifting base via a slider. The lifting drive unit is mounted on the lifting base, and a gear meshing with the rack is mounted on the output end of the crossbeam. The lifting drive unit drives the gear to rotate, thereby driving the lifting shaft up and down via the rack.

[0011] Furthermore, the rotating assembly includes a rotating unit and a rotating drive unit, and the output end of the rotating drive unit is connected to the clamping assembly through the rotating unit.

[0012] The two ends of the rotating unit are connected to the clamping drive module and the clamping assembly through a connecting plate and a fixed plate respectively. The output end of the rotating drive unit is connected to the rotating unit driving, and the rotating drive unit drives the rotating unit to rotate to drive the clamping assembly to rotate.

[0013] Furthermore, the clamping assembly includes a clamping base connected to the rotating assembly, two clamping arms slidably arranged on the clamping base, and a clamping drive unit that drives the two clamping arms to move relatively away from and closer to each other.

[0014] The clamping base is set perpendicular to the conveying direction of the glass panel, and the two clamping arms are slidably set on the clamping base through a slide rail assembly. The driving unit is installed on the clamping base, and its output end is connected to the two clamping arms. When the glass panel needs to be clamped, the driving unit drives the two clamping arms closer to each other. When the glass panel needs to be released, the driving unit drives the two clamping arms away from each other.

[0015] Furthermore, each of the clamping arms is provided with a plurality of support arms arranged along the length direction, and each of the support arms is provided with a plurality of suction nozzles and support blocks, and the suction nozzles and the support blocks are arranged at intervals.

[0016] In order to keep the glass panel stable on the clamping assembly during movement, a support arm is set on the clamping arm. When the two clamping arms approach each other, the support arm extends into the bottom of the glass panel. Suction nozzles and support blocks are set at intervals on the support arm. The suction nozzle is connected to the external vacuum mechanism. The clamping assembly rises and the suction nozzle contacts the glass panel. The glass panel is sucked and fixed on the support block by vacuum suction to prevent the glass panel from sliding. At the same time, the support block is made of Teflon material, which can effectively avoid scratches on the glass panel due to contact with the support block.

[0017] Furthermore, an elastic slider is provided on one end of the support arm close to the clamping arm of one of the clamping arms, and a stopper is provided on the other end of the support arm close to the clamping arm of the other clamping arm.

[0018] In order to prevent the clamping arms from damaging the side edges of the glass panel, an elastic slider is provided on the support arm of one of the clamping arms. The elastic slider is connected to the clamping arm by a spring and can slide on the support arm; a stopper is provided on the support arm of the other clamping arm. When the two clamping arms approach each other, the elastic slider and the stopper contact the two sides of the glass panel and apply force. At this time, the elastic slider can convert the contact force into a gradual flexible force, thereby avoiding damage to the glass panel due to excessive instantaneous contact force.

[0019] Furthermore, the clamping drive unit includes a first clamping drive member and a second clamping drive member respectively connected to the two clamping arms, and the first clamping drive member and the second clamping drive member are movably arranged on the clamping base. By adjusting the positions of the first clamping drive member and the second clamping drive member, the maximum clamping distance between the two clamping arms can be changed.

[0020] A guide shaft is provided on the clamping base, and two sets of movable slides are sleeved on the guide shaft, and the two sets of slides are respectively threadedly connected to the two screws; the first clamping drive member and the second clamping drive member are respectively fixed on the two slides, and the slides can be driven by rotating the screws to drive the first clamping drive member and the second clamping drive member to move, thereby adjusting the maximum clamping distance between the two clamping arms connected to the first clamping drive member and the second clamping drive member to improve their compatibility.

[0021] Furthermore, the grinding mechanism also includes a Y-axis movable platform for loading the glass panel and moving along the Y-axis direction. The grinding components are arranged in three groups, and the three groups of grinding components are sequentially erected above the movable platform along the Y-axis direction. The three groups of grinding components sequentially realize coarse grinding, semi-fine grinding and fine grinding of the short side or long side of the glass panel.

[0022] According to the grinding process, three groups of grinding components can be set to achieve rough grinding, semi-finishing grinding and fine grinding. When the glass panel follows the movement of the Y-axis moving platform, rough grinding, semi-finishing grinding and fine grinding can be performed serially and simultaneously. That is, when the side edge is rough-grinded, the part that has been rough-ground will be semi-finished immediately, and the part that has been semi-finished will be fine-grinded immediately. There is no need to wait for one process to be completed before proceeding to another process, which improves the grinding efficiency.

[0023] Furthermore, each group of the grinding assemblies includes grinding tools symmetrically arranged on both sides of the Y-axis moving platform, and a tool driving module for driving each of the grinding tools to move along the X-axis and Z-axis directions.

[0024] The grinding mechanism uses three-axis CNC machining, and three sets of grinding components can be mounted on top of the Y-axis mobile platform in the form of a gantry. Two sets of gantries are mounted above the Y-axis mobile platform, with two sets of tool drive modules installed on one side of the gantry beam, and two sets of tool drive modules installed on both sides of the other gantry beam. Each tool drive module is connected to a grinding tool driven by an electric spindle, thus setting three grinding tools on each side of the Y-axis mobile platform. The three grinding tools can be configured as rough grinding tools, semi-finishing tools, and fine grinding tools in sequence. When the Y-axis mobile platform drives the glass panel, each grinding component can serially and continuously complete the rough grinding, semi-finishing grinding, and fine grinding of the side of the glass panel, thereby improving grinding efficiency.

[0025] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0026] The automatic glass panel grinding production line designed in this scheme includes two sets of grinding mechanisms, namely the short side grinding mechanism and the long side grinding mechanism. The production line is composed of a loading and conveying mechanism, a short side grinding mechanism, a transfer and conveying mechanism, a long side grinding mechanism, and a unloading and conveying mechanism in the direction of glass panel transmission. Of course, the structures of the two sets of grinding mechanisms are exactly the same, and the grinding order of the short and long sides can be interchanged by adjusting the setting program. The grinding mechanism is equipped with several grinding components. By configuring different tools, it can realize the free combination processing of rough grinding, semi-finishing grinding and fine grinding. For example, if three sets of grinding components are set, and the rough grinding tools, semi-finishing grinding tools and fine grinding tools are configured in sequence, the serial processing of rough grinding, semi-finishing grinding and fine grinding can be realized. Initially, the short side of the glass panel is parallel to the conveyor. The glass panel to be processed is transported by the conveyor to the pickup position of the loading and handling mechanism. The loading and handling mechanism automatically transfers the glass panel to the short side grinding mechanism, where the short side of the glass panel is ground. The transfer mechanism then rotates the glass panel 90 degrees, reversing its direction so that its long side is parallel to the conveyor direction. The panel is then transferred to the long side grinding mechanism, where it is ground. The unloading and handling mechanism then transfers the processed glass panel to the next process. The seamless integration of these mechanisms enables automatic side grinding and transfer, improving the efficiency and output of side grinding. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0037] To facilitate understanding of the present invention, the present invention will be described more fully below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The accompanying drawings illustrate preferred embodiments of the present invention. However, the present invention can be implemented in many different forms and is not limited to the embodiments described herein.

[0038] like Figures 1 to 9As shown, this embodiment provides an automatic glass panel grinding production line, including two groups of grinding mechanisms 2 for grinding the long side and short side of the glass panel respectively, and a transfer conveying mechanism 3 for changing the direction of the glass panel is arranged between the two groups of grinding mechanisms 2; a loading and conveying mechanism 1 for automatically conveying the glass panel to be processed is arranged upstream of one of the grinding mechanisms 2, and a unloading and conveying mechanism 4 for automatically conveying the processed glass panel is arranged downstream of the other grinding mechanism 2. The grinding mechanism 2 employs a three-axis CNC machining process and includes a Y-axis mobile platform 21 that drives the glass panel along the Y-axis. Three grinding assemblies are sequentially mounted above the mobile platform along the Y-axis. Each grinding assembly includes grinding tools symmetrically positioned on either side of the Y-axis mobile platform, and a tool drive module for driving each grinding tool along the X- and Z-axis directions. The three grinding assemblies sequentially perform coarse, semi-finish, and fine grinding on the short or long sides of the glass panel. Two gantries are mounted above the Y-axis mobile platform 21. Two tool drive modules 222 are mounted on one side of the gantry's crossbeam, and two tool drive modules 222 are mounted on either side of the other gantry. Each tool drive module 222 is connected to a grinding tool 221 driven by an electric spindle. The tool drive modules 222 are composed of an X-axis drive unit and a Z-axis drive unit. Both the X-axis drive unit and the Z-axis drive unit utilize a drive motor, a lead screw, and a slide rail structure to form a mobile drive unit, capable of driving the grinding tools to move along the X-axis and to elevate along the Z-axis, respectively. The grinding tools 221 are arranged on both sides of the Y-axis movable platform 21, so three grinding tools 221 are respectively arranged on both sides of the Y-axis movable platform 21. The three grinding tools 221 can be set as rough grinding tools, semi-finishing grinding tools and fine grinding tools in sequence. In the process of the Y-axis movable platform 21 driving the glass panel to move, each grinding component 22 can serially and continuously complete the rough grinding, semi-finishing grinding and fine grinding of the side of the glass panel. That is, when rough grinding the side, the part that has been rough ground is immediately semi-finished, and the part that has been semi-finished is immediately fine ground. There is no need to wait for one process to be completed before performing another process, which improves the grinding efficiency.

[0039] The automatic glass panel grinding production line of this embodiment is equipped with two sets of grinding mechanisms 2, namely the short side grinding mechanism and the long side grinding mechanism. The production line is composed of a loading and conveying mechanism 1, a short side grinding mechanism, a transfer and conveying mechanism 3, a long side grinding mechanism, and a unloading and conveying mechanism 4 connected in sequence along the conveying direction of the glass panel. Of course, the structures of the two sets of grinding mechanisms 2 are exactly the same, and the grinding order of the short side and the long side can be interchanged by adjusting the setting program. In the initial state, the short side of the glass panel is parallel to the conveyor. The glass panel to be processed is transported by the conveyor device to the pick-up position of the loading and conveying mechanism 1. The loading and conveying mechanism 1 automatically transfers the glass panel to the short side grinding mechanism, where the short side of the glass panel is rough-ground, semi-finished, and fine-ground. The glass panel is then rotated 90 degrees by the transfer conveying mechanism 3, that is, the long side of the glass panel is parallel to the conveyor direction, and then transferred to the long side grinding mechanism. The long side of the glass panel is rough-ground, semi-finished, and fine-ground on the long side of the glass panel. The processed glass panel is then transferred to the next process by the unloading and conveying mechanism 4. Through the seamless connection and coordination of the above equipment, automatic grinding and automatic transfer of the glass panel sides are achieved, improving the efficiency and output of glass panel side grinding.

[0040] like Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown, the transfer mechanism 3 includes a frame arranged on both sides of the glass panel along the conveying direction, a clamping assembly 31 for clamping the glass panel, a rotating assembly 33 that drives the glass panel to rotate to change the placement direction, and a clamping drive module that drives the clamping assembly 31 to rise, fall, and translate. The transfer mechanism 3 completes the transfer of the glass panel between the short side grinding mechanism and the long side grinding mechanism. The glass panel, after being processed on the short side grinding mechanism, moves to the unloading position. The clamping assembly 31 clamps the glass panel from both sides of the short side of the glass panel. Then, the clamping drive module drives the glass panel to rise. Then, driven by the rotating assembly 33, it rotates 90 degrees to make the long side of the glass panel parallel to the conveying direction. Finally, driven by the clamping drive module, it translates to the long side grinding mechanism and is placed on the Y-axis moving platform 21.

[0041] like Figure 4 and Figure 5As shown, the clamping drive module consists of a lifting assembly 32 that drives the clamping assembly 31 to rise and fall, and a translation assembly 34 that moves the glass panel from the unloading position of the short side grinding mechanism to the loading position of the long side grinding mechanism. The lifting assembly 32 includes a lifting base set on the crossbeam, a lifting shaft slidably connected to the lifting base, and a lifting drive unit that drives the lifting shaft to rise and fall. The lifting base is fixed in the middle position of the crossbeam, and the lifting shaft is provided with a slide rail and a rack, which is slidably connected to the lifting base through a slider. The lifting drive unit consists of a drive motor and a reducer. The lifting drive unit is installed on the lifting base, and a gear meshing with the rack is installed at its output end. The lifting drive unit drives the gear to rotate, thereby driving the lifting shaft up and down through the rack. The translation assembly 34 includes a beam slidingly set on the frame and a beam driving unit that drives the beam to move. A slide rail and a rack are set on the top of the frame. The two ends of the beam are fixedly connected to the slider on the slide rail through fixed plates. The beam driving unit is composed of a driving motor and a reducer. Two groups of beam driving units are set, which are respectively set on the fixed plates at both ends of the beam. The output end is equipped with a gear meshing with the rack. The gears are driven to rotate at the same time by the two groups of beam driving units, thereby driving the beam and the beam driving unit to move smoothly.

[0042] like Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the rotating assembly 33 includes a rotating unit 331 and a rotating drive unit 332. One end of the rotating unit 331 is fixed to the end of the lifting shaft, and the other end is connected to the clamping assembly 31. The rotating unit 331 uses a rotating platform reducer, and the rotating drive unit 332 uses a drive motor. The two ends of the rotating platform reducer are respectively connected to the lifting shaft and the clamping assembly 31 through a connecting plate and a fixed plate. The drive motor is driven by the rotating platform reducer, so that the rotating drive unit 332 drives the rotating unit 331 to rotate, thereby driving the clamping assembly 31 to rotate.

[0043] like Figure 6 and Figure 7As shown, the clamping assembly 31 includes a clamping base 311 connected to a rotating unit 331, two clamping arms 312 slidably disposed on the clamping base 311, and a clamping drive unit 313 for driving the two clamping arms 312 to move relatively apart and together. The clamping base 311 is disposed perpendicular to the conveying direction of the glass panel, and the two clamping arms 312 are slidably disposed on the clamping base 311 via a slide rail assembly. The clamping drive unit 313 includes a first clamping drive member 3131 and a second clamping drive member 3132 respectively connected to the two clamping arms 312. The first clamping drive member 3131 and the second clamping drive member 3132 can be driven by air cylinders. When the glass panel needs to be clamped, the first clamping drive member 3131 and the second clamping drive member 3132 drive the two clamping arms 312 to move relatively apart. When the glass panel needs to be released, the first clamping drive member 3131 and the second clamping drive member 3132 drive the two clamping arms 312 to move relatively apart. The first clamping driver 3131 and the second clamping driver 3132 are movably mounted on the clamping base 311. Adjusting the positions of the first clamping driver 3131 and the second clamping driver 3132 allows the maximum clamping distance between the two clamping arms 312 to be varied. Specifically, a guide shaft is mounted on the clamping base 311, and two sets of movable slides are mounted on the guide shaft. The two slides are threadedly connected to two screws. The first clamping driver 3131 and the second clamping driver 3132 are respectively fixed to the two slides. Rotating the screws drives the slides to move the first clamping driver 3131 and the second clamping driver 3132, thereby adjusting the maximum clamping distance between the two clamping arms 312 connected to the first clamping driver 3131 and the second clamping driver 3132, thereby improving their compatibility.

[0044] like Figure 8 and Figure 9As shown, in order to keep the glass panel stable on the clamping assembly 31 during movement, each clamping arm 312 is arrayed with a plurality of support arms 314 along the direction of glass panel transport. Each support arm 314 is provided with a plurality of suction nozzles 3141 and support blocks 3142, with the suction nozzles 3141 and support blocks 3142 spaced apart. When the two clamping arms 312 approach each other, the support arms 314 extend into the bottom of the glass panel. Suction nozzles 3141 and support blocks 3142 are spaced apart on the support arms 314. The suction nozzles 3141 are connected to an external vacuum mechanism, and the clamping assembly 31 rises. The suction nozzles 3141 contact the glass panel, and the vacuum suction secures the glass panel to the support blocks 3142, preventing it from sliding. At the same time, the support blocks 3142 are made of Teflon, which effectively prevents scratches on the glass panel caused by contact with the support blocks 3142. To prevent the clamping arms 312 from damaging the sides of the glass panel, an elastic slider 3143 is provided near the support arm 314 of one clamping arm 312, and a stopper 3144 is provided near the support arm 314 of the other clamping arm 312. The elastic slider 3143 is connected to the clamping arm 312 via a spring and can slide on the support arm 314. The stopper 3144 is cylindrical in structure to reduce the contact area with the glass panel. When the two clamping arms 312 approach each other, the elastic slider 3143 and the stopper 3144 contact the two sides of the glass panel and apply a force. At this time, the elastic slider 3143 can convert the contact force into a gradual flexible force, thereby preventing damage to the glass panel due to excessive instantaneous contact force.

[0045] In addition, the structural forms of the loading and unloading conveying mechanism 1 and the unloading conveying mechanism 4 are similar to those of the transfer conveying mechanism 3, but they do not require a rotation function, so the rotation component 33 can be cancelled, and the clamping component 31 is directly connected to the lifting component 32. The remaining structures are the same as those of the transfer conveying mechanism 3, so they will not be elaborated on.
