Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of glass original sheets, in particular to an intelligent glass original sheet taking device. Background Art
[0002] Float glass is a type of glass produced through a specific process. It has the characteristics of high flatness, good transparency, and resistance to breakage. The production process of float glass is completed in a tin bath with a protective gas. Molten glass flows continuously from the tank kiln and floats on the surface of the relatively dense tin liquid. Under the action of gravity and surface tension, the glass liquid spreads and flattens on the tin liquid surface, forming glass with smooth upper and lower surfaces. After hardening and cooling, the glass is guided onto a transition roller table, thus completing the production. Float glass is mainly used in many fields such as construction, automobiles, and electronics, and is an important raw material for the deep processing of glass.
[0003] Since float glass sheets will deviate during transportation, if the robot directly takes the sheets and stacks them, the stacking will be uneven, which will not achieve the purpose of precise stacking and will affect subsequent packaging. Utility Model Content
[0004] In order to achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the utility model proposes an intelligent glass sheet taking device.
[0005] The technical solution of the utility model is implemented as follows: an intelligent glass original sheet picking device comprises a mechanical arm main body, a positioning mechanism is provided on the mechanical arm main body, one end of the mechanical arm main body is fixedly connected to a fixed shell, a motor is fixedly connected to the inside of the fixed shell, a rotating rod is rotatably connected to the inside of the fixed shell, the outer circular surface of the rotating rod is fixedly connected to a gear, a rack plate and a movable plate are slidably connected to the inside of the fixed shell, one end of the movable plate is fixedly connected to a fixed column, the fixed column is slidably connected to the rotating column, and a first spring is movably connected to the inside of the fixed column, a positioning block is fixedly connected to the bottom of the rotating column, and a second spring is fixedly connected to the top of the positioning block, and the bottom of the positioning block is rotatably connected to the first roller and the second roller, a stop block is fixedly connected to the inside of the fixed column, and a groove is provided on the top of the rotating column.

[0011] Preferably, the first roller and the second roller are positioned lower than the suction cup.
[0012] The utility model has the following beneficial effects:
[0013] The intelligent glass sheet picking device uses a motor to drive the rack plate to drive the movable plate to move toward the center of the fixed shell, and the movable plate drives the positioning block to move toward the direction of the glass sheet. The first roller on the positioning block first contacts the two sides of the glass sheet and pushes the glass sheet to be aligned. Due to the continuous movement of the movable plate, the glass sheet will passively push the first roller to move, so that the positioning block drives the second roller to rotate with the rotating column as the fulcrum, so that the second roller is close to the two ends of the glass sheet and pushes the glass sheet, causing the center point of the glass sheet to coincide with the center point of the placement table. In this way, the offset glass sheet can be repositioned, so that the robot can directly take the sheet and perform accurate stacking without affecting subsequent packaging.

[0022] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0023] like Figure 1-4 As shown, the glass original sheet intelligent picking device provided by this embodiment includes a robotic arm main body 1, and a positioning mechanism 2 is provided on the robotic arm main body 1. One end of the robotic arm main body 1 is fixedly connected to a fixed shell 201, and a motor 202 is fixedly connected inside the fixed shell 201. A rotating rod 203 is rotatably connected inside the fixed shell 201, and a gear 204 is fixedly connected to the outer circumferential surface of the rotating rod 203. A rack plate 205 and a movable plate 206 are slidably connected inside the fixed shell 201. One end of the movable plate 206 is fixedly connected to a fixed column 207, and a rotating column 208 is slidably connected inside the fixed column 207. A first spring 209 is fixedly connected inside the fixed column 207, and a positioning block 210 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the rotating column 208. A second spring 211 is fixedly connected to the top of the positioning block 210. A first roller 212 and a second roller 213 are rotatably connected to the bottom of the positioning block 210. A stopper 214 is fixedly connected inside the fixed column 207, and a groove 215 is provided on the top of the rotating column 208.
[0024] Furthermore, the motor 202 is fixedly connected to the rotating rod 203 , the gear 204 is meshedly connected to the rack plate 205 , and the rack plate 205 is fixedly connected to the moving plate 206 .
[0025] By adopting the above technical solution, the motor 202 drives the rotating rod 203 and the gear 204 to rotate forward and reverse, so that the gear 204 can drive the rack plate 205 and the movable plate 206 to move back and forth.
[0026] Furthermore, the first spring 209 is located above the rotating column 208 , the movable plate 206 is fixedly connected to the second spring 211 , and the stopper 214 is slidably connected to the groove 215 on the rotating column 208 .
[0027] By adopting the above technical solution, the rotating column 208 can be reset after moving due to the elasticity of the first spring 209, and the movable plate 206 can be reset after moving due to the elasticity of the second spring 211, and the first spring 209 will not hinder the rotation of the rotating column 208, while the groove 215 of the stopper 214 on the rotating column 208 will limit the rotation path of the rotating column 208.
[0028] Furthermore, the positioning block 210 is at a right angle, and the right-angled side of the positioning block 210 where the first roller 212 is located is not in the same vertical plane as the movable plate 206 .
[0029] By adopting the above technical solution, when in the initial position, the right-angled side of the positioning block 210 where the first roller 212 is located is not in the same vertical plane as the movable plate 206, so that the positioning block 210 can center the offset glass sheet.
[0030] Furthermore, an adsorption mechanism 3 is provided on the fixed shell 201, a telescopic air tube 301 is fixedly connected to one side of the robot arm body 1, one end of the telescopic air tube 301 is fixedly connected to a vacuum pump 302, and the other end of the telescopic air tube 301 is fixedly connected to a suction cup 303, and the suction cup 303 is fixedly connected to the fixed shell 201.
[0031] By adopting the above technical solution, the glass original piece is adsorbed by the adsorption mechanism 3, thereby moving the glass original piece.
[0032] Furthermore, a conveyor belt 4 is provided below the positioning mechanism 2 .
[0033] By adopting the above technical solution, the glass original piece is conveyed by the conveyor belt 4.
[0034] Furthermore, the first roller 212 and the second roller 213 are positioned lower than the suction cup 303 .
[0035] By adopting the above technical solution, the positions of the first roller 212 and the second roller 213 are lower than the suction cup 303, so that when the first roller 212 and the second roller 213 touch the conveyor belt 4, the suction cup 303 has not yet touched the glass sheet, thereby preventing the suction cup from hindering the positioning mechanism 2 from centering the glass sheet.
[0036] Working principle: The conveyor belt 4 moves the glass sheet to the bottom of the positioning mechanism 2, and the robot body 1 drives the positioning mechanism 2 to move downward. When the first roller 212 and the second roller 213 touch the conveyor belt 4, the suction cup 303 has not yet touched the glass sheet, and the robot body 1 stops driving the positioning mechanism 2 to move downward. Then, the motor 202 is started. The motor 202 prompts the rack plate 205 to drive the moving plate 206 to move toward the center of the fixed shell 201. The moving plate 206 drives the positioning block 210 to move toward the direction of the glass sheet. When the moving plate 206 is moved, the positioning block 210 moves downward. After the plate 206 continues to move, the first roller 212 on the positioning block 210 first contacts the two sides of the glass original piece, and the first roller 212 pushes the glass original piece to align so that the two sides of the glass original piece remain parallel to the two sides of the fixed shell 201. Since the movable plate 206 is still moving, the glass original piece will passively push the first roller 212 to move, and the first roller 212 will drive the positioning block 210 to move, and the positioning block 210 will drive the rotating column 208 to rotate, and the positioning block 210 stretches the second spring 211. At the same time, the positioning block 210 drives the second roller 213 rotates together, causing the second roller 213 to gradually approach the two ends of the glass original piece. When the second roller 213 touches the two ends of the glass original piece and the movable plate 206 is still moving, the second roller 213 pushes the glass original piece to move, causing the center point of the glass original piece to gradually approach the center point of the fixed shell 201. When the rotating column 208 continues to rotate and is blocked by the stopper 214 in the fixed column 207 and cannot rotate, at this time, the right-angled side of the positioning block 210 where the first roller 212 is located is in the same vertical plane as the movable plate 206, allowing the second roller 212 to push the glass original piece. The center point of the glass sheet coincides with the center point of the placement table 201, so that the glass sheet is positioned at the center of the placement table 201. At this time, the robot arm body 1 continues to drive the positioning mechanism 2 to move downward until the suction cup 303 touches the glass sheet. At the same time, the rotating column 208 will passively squeeze the first spring 209 in the fixed column 207. Then, the vacuum pump 302 is started. The vacuum pump 302 removes the air in the suction cup 303 through the telescopic air pipe 301, so that the suction cup 303 tightly adsorbs the glass sheet. The robot arm body 1 can then move and stack the glass sheets.
[0037] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations may be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, and the scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
