[0035] Working principle:

[0036] The utility model provides a glass cost product scheduling system, which uses the glass fetching manipulator of the palletizing robot to grab glass sheets from the upstream conveyor roller. The upstream conveyor roller unit transmits the downgrade classification information to the palletizing robot through PLC and PLC communication. The glass fetching manipulator of the palletizing robot places the glass on the glass racks of the front and rear connecting trolleys according to the grade (excellent, qualified);

[0037] The control unit of the palletizing robot sets the number of glass sheets per stack. When the sheet-picking robot grabs the required number of glass sheets, the robot generates a full stack signal. When the rail trolley receives a full stack signal at a certain workstation, it automatically moves to that workstation and aligns with the conveyor chain. When both the full stack signal and the rail trolley arrival signal are met, the system triggers the chain conveyor.

[0038] There is a proximity sensor switch under the rail trolley table. When the glass rack tray on the docking trolley is completely transported to the rail trolley through the conveyor chain, the proximity sensor switch senses the glass rack tray and sends a signal to the rail trolley conveyor chain to stop the conveyor chain.

[0039] The rail trolley uses laser positioning to determine its coordinate position on the track. When moving to a certain stacking position, it first moves to the approximate position based on the laser feedback position. When it approaches the target position, it slows down and then determines the stop position through the proximity switch.

[0040] Finally, the rail trolley conveyor chain plate is aligned with the conveyor chain plate in the elevator, and the rail trolley conveyor chain is started to transport the glass rack pallet and the stacked glass into the elevator, and then the elevator transports the glass to the finished product warehouse on the first floor.

[0041] The entire system of the present invention uses modern communication technology to achieve the connection between various work units without manual intervention, reducing the uncertainty factors during manual operation; the scheduling system of the present invention is appropriately configured according to production capacity, such as 2 to 3 manipulators are equipped with one rail car.

[0042] The above are only specific application examples of the present invention and do not constitute any limitation on the scope of protection of the present invention. Any technical solution formed by equivalent transformation or equivalent replacement shall fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.
