A rotation drive mechanism is provided between the base 1 and the support plate mechanism, and the rotation drive mechanism can drive the glass support plate to rotate around a set vertical axis, thereby adjusting the transport direction of the support plate mechanism.

[0028] In this embodiment, the set vertical axis is the central axis of the base.

[0029] The supporting plate mechanism can adopt the supporting plate mechanism used in the existing insulating glass production line, and the plate surface used to cooperate with the side surface of one side of the glass plate is used as a supporting surface for supporting the glass plate.

[0030] In order to ensure the stability of the glass plate during rotation and prevent the glass plate from tipping over during rotation, a support frame is provided on one side of the support surface. The support frame is fixed to the support plate mechanism. The support frame is used to cooperate with the side surface of the other side of the glass plate, thereby achieving double-sided support for the glass plate and preventing the glass plate from tipping over during rotation.

[0031] The support plate mechanism can adopt the existing structure, including a frame 2, a rotation drive structure is provided between the bottom end of the frame 2 and the base 1, the frame 2 is fixed with a support plate 3, the support plate 3 is set at an acute angle to the vertical plane to support the glass plate, and a conveying roller group arranged along the conveying direction of the glass plate is provided below the support plate 3. The conveying roller group includes a plurality of conveying rollers 4 distributed along the conveying direction. The conveying roller 4 is used to contact the bottom surface of the glass plate and convey the glass plate. One end of the conveying roller 4 is rotatably connected to the bottom of the frame 2, and the conveying roller 4 can rotate around its own axis, thereby realizing the conveyance of the glass plate.

[0032] A transmission mechanism is provided between the ends of adjacent conveying rollers 4 connected to the bottom of the frame 2 to achieve power transmission. The transmission mechanism adopts a chain transmission mechanism or a belt transmission mechanism, and preferably adopts a chain transmission mechanism.

[0033] At least one conveying roller 4 is connected to a conveying drive mechanism, which can drive the conveying roller connected thereto to rotate, and further drive all conveying rollers to rotate through a transmission mechanism.

[0034] In order to reduce the number of conveying drive mechanisms and lower the cost, only one conveying roller is connected to the conveying drive mechanism.

[0035] In this embodiment, the conveying drive mechanism includes a conveying drive motor 5, which is fixed on the frame 2 behind the back plate 3. The output shaft of the conveying drive motor 5 is connected to one of the conveying rollers 4 through a chain drive mechanism or a belt drive mechanism to drive it to rotate.

[0036] The front surface of the back plate 3 is used to cooperate with one side surface of the glass plate to support the glass plate. As a supporting surface, a plurality of pulleys are provided on the supporting surface. The pulleys are in contact with one side surface of the glass plate. Through the setting of the pulleys, the glass plate can be transported more conveniently, avoiding wear on the glass plate surface caused by transportation when the glass plates are in contact with the back plate.

[0037] The support frame is arranged on the front side of the support surface, and a plurality of pulleys are also arranged on the support frame. The pulleys are in contact with the other side surface of the glass plate to facilitate the transmission of the glass plate.

[0038] In this embodiment, pulleys are provided on both the support plate and the backing plate. It is understandable that pulleys may be provided only on the backing plate or only on the support frame. Those skilled in the art may set them according to actual needs.

[0039] like Figure 3 As shown, the support frame includes at least one longitudinal beam 6, which is arranged parallel to the back plate 3 and perpendicular to the conveying direction of the glass plate. The top end of the longitudinal beam 6 is fixed to the top of the frame body 2 through a connecting beam 7, and the connecting beam 7 is a telescopic beam that can adjust the distance between the support frame and the back plate 3 to meet the conveying requirements of glass plates of different thicknesses.

[0040] Furthermore, two longitudinal beams 6 are provided, and the two longitudinal beams 6 are respectively provided in front of the two ends of the support plate 3. A cross beam 8 is fixed between the two longitudinal beams 6, and the cross beam 8 is provided along the conveying direction of the glass plate.

[0041] In this embodiment, three cross beams 8 are fixed between the two longitudinal beams 6. It is understandable that two, four or more cross beams 8 may also be provided, and those skilled in the art may arrange them according to actual needs.

[0042] The inner side surface of the crossbeam 8 is provided with a plurality of pulleys, which are distributed along the length direction of the crossbeam and are used for contacting the glass plate.

[0043] A rotation drive mechanism is provided between the bottom end of the frame 2 and the base 1 , and the rotation drive mechanism can drive the frame 2 to rotate around the central axis of the base.

[0044] In this embodiment, Figure 4 As shown, the rotation drive mechanism includes an arc-shaped plate 9 , which is coaxial with the set vertical axis, that is, coaxially arranged with the base 1 .

[0045] The angle of the arc plate 9 matches the angle that the support plate mechanism needs to rotate. In this embodiment, the angle of the arc plate 9 is 90°. It can be understood that the angle of the arc plate 9 can also be 45° or 135°, etc., and technical personnel in this field can set it according to actual needs.

[0046] The arc-shaped plate 9 is arranged on the outside of the outer edge of the base 1. The arc-shaped plate 9 is fixed to the base 1 through multiple connecting frames. A toothed belt 10 is arranged on the outside of the arc-shaped plate 9. The toothed belt 10 is distributed along the outer side of the arc-shaped plate 9 and fits with the outer side of the arc-shaped plate 9. The two ends of the toothed belt 10 are fixedly connected to the arc-shaped plate 9.

[0047] Specifically, the end of the toothed belt 10 is fixedly connected to the end of the arc-shaped plate 9 on the same side, such as Figure 5As shown, a first pressure plate 11 is provided at the end of the arc-shaped plate 9, the inner side of the toothed belt 10 is in contact with the first pressure plate 11, and a second pressure plate 12 is provided on the outer side of the first pressure plate 11. The second pressure plate 12 and the first pressure plate 11 are connected by bolts and nuts, thereby achieving the tightening and fixing of the end of the toothed belt 10.

[0048] Furthermore, in order to ensure the stability of the end of the toothed belt 10, a serrated plate 13 is provided on the outer side of the first pressure plate 11, and the serrated plate 13 engages with the serrations on the inner side of the toothed belt 10. In this way, the toothed belt 10 is fixed.

[0049] A driving wheel 14 is provided between the inner side of the toothed belt 10 and the outer side of the arc-shaped plate 9 . The driving wheel 14 is a toothed belt wheel that matches the toothed belt 10 , and the toothed belt wheel is meshed with the toothed belt 10 .

[0050] The driving wheel 14 is connected to a driving element installed at the bottom of the frame 2. The driving element can drive the driving wheel to rotate. Under the meshing action of the driving wheel and the toothed belt, the frame rotates around a set vertical axis.

[0051] In this embodiment, the driving element is a rotary drive motor 15, the output shaft of the rotary drive motor 15 is vertically arranged and connected to the drive wheel 14. In other embodiments, the driving element can also be a hydraulic motor or other device that can output rotational motion.

[0052] The rotation driving motor 15 is fixed on a motor base, and the motor base is fixed on one side of the bottom of the frame 2.

[0053] Furthermore, in order to keep the toothed belt and the driving wheel in a stable meshing state, pressure wheels 16 are provided on both sides of the driving wheel 14. The axis of the pressure wheel 16 is vertically arranged, and the top of the pressure wheel 16 is rotatably connected to the motor seat. The pressure wheel 16 contacts the outer side surface of the toothed belt 10. The pressure wheel 16 presses the toothed belt 10 against the wheel surface of the driving wheel 14, so that the driving wheel 14 and the toothed belt 10 maintain a stable meshing state.

[0054] In order to ensure the smooth rotation of the frame, a plurality of running wheels 17 are provided at the bottom of the frame. The plurality of running wheels 17 are distributed along a circular arc trajectory coaxial with the set vertical axis. The running wheels 17 cooperate with the circular guide rail 18 provided on the base 1. The running wheels 17 run along the circular guide rail 18, guiding the rotation of the frame 2.

[0055] In this embodiment, when the glass plate processed in the previous process is transmitted to the conveying roller assembly, the rotating drive mechanism drives the frame 2 to rotate, so that the entire support plate mechanism rotates, changes the orientation of the support plate mechanism, and changes the next conveying direction of the glass plate. After the rotation of the frame is completed, the conveying roller assembly continues to work, driving the glass plate into the next process.

[0056] The steering mechanism of this embodiment can change the conveying direction of the glass plate. When applied to the insulating glass production line, it can change the layout direction of the insulating glass production line, so that there is no need to arrange the production line along a straight line. It can be adjusted according to the size of the production workshop, thereby improving the applicability of the insulating glass production line to the production workshop.

[0057] Example 2

[0058] This embodiment provides a hollow glass production line, which is equipped with at least one steering mechanism for the hollow glass production line described in Example 1. The steering mechanism for the hollow glass production line can be set behind the equipment of the set process according to actual needs, thereby realizing the steering of the entire production line.

[0059] It is understandable that multiple steering mechanisms can also be used in combination to form a steering assembly, and the sum of their rotation angles is the rotation angle of the entire steering assembly.

[0060] The equipment for the remaining processes of the insulating glass production line can adopt existing technologies and will not be described in detail here.

[0061] Although the above description of the specific implementation methods of the present invention is combined with the accompanying drawings, it does not limit the scope of protection of the present invention. Technical personnel in the relevant field should understand that on the basis of the technical solution of the present invention, various modifications or deformations that can be made by technical personnel in this field without creative work are still within the scope of protection of the present invention.
