[0034] In the present invention, the forward direction of the glass is referred to as the front, and the left and right sides of a person facing forward are referred to as the left and right sides.

[0035] The utility model provides the following embodiments.

[0036] like Figure 1 、 Figure 2 、 Figure 3As shown, a glass printing detection mechanism includes a pre-positioning section 1, a printing section 2, a detection section 3, an unqualified outflow section 4 and a furnace front positioning section 5 connected in sequence. The pre-positioning section 1 includes a first roller conveyor 11, a first left and right adjustment bracket 12 and a first positioning cylinder 13. The first left and right adjustment bracket 12 is arranged on the first roller conveyor 11, and multiple first positioning cylinders 13 are arranged in front of the first roller conveyor 11; a stopper is provided at the end of the lever of the first positioning cylinder 13. When the lever is extended, it can block the glass and cooperate with the first left and right adjustment bracket 12 to improve the pre-positioning effect of the glass.

[0037] like Figure 5 、 Figure 6 As shown, the first left and right adjustment bracket 12 includes a base 14, a left adjustment frame 15, a right adjustment frame 16, a first transmission rod 17 and a second transmission rod 18. In the left adjustment frame 15, the adjustment bar 151 is located above the first roller conveyor 11, and the adjustment bar 151 is detachably mounted on a crossbeam 153 located below the roller conveyor through a plurality of support rods 152 located in the gap between the rollers. The crossbeam 153 is slidably mounted on the base 14. The structure of the right adjustment frame 16 is symmetrical to that of the left adjustment frame 15. The first transmission rod 17 and the second transmission rod 18 are both rotatably mounted on the base 14. The first transmission rod 17 is connected to the left adjustment frame 15 in a spiral transmission connection, and the second transmission rod 18 is connected to the right adjustment frame 16 in a spiral transmission connection. The same end of the first transmission rod 17 and the second transmission rod 18 is respectively connected to a rotating handle 19;

[0038] The adjustment bar 151 is located above the roller in the first roller conveyor 11, with a gap between the adjustment bar 151 and the roller. The gap is smaller than the thickness of the glass to be printed, so that the adjustment bar 151 can push the glass to adjust its position.

[0039] The second transmission rod 18 can be a whole threaded rod, or it can be spliced ​​by a polished rod 181 and a screw rod 182. The polished rod 181 and the screw rod 182 are both rotatably mounted on the base 14 and connected together through a coupling 183.

[0043] Printing section 2 may also include a fiber optic switch for detecting the position of the glass. This fiber optic switch is connected to the second positioning cylinder 23 and the printing device 24. Upon detecting the arrival of the glass, the fiber optic switch controls the second positioning cylinder 23 to raise, stopping the glass from moving, and simultaneously controls the printing device 24 to begin printing. Furthermore, to ensure optimal printing quality, the second roller conveyor 21 may be controlled to switch from high speed to low speed, ensuring stability during printing.

[0044] The detection section 3 includes a conveyor 31, a camera 32, and a computer collector 33. The camera 32 is located above the conveyor 31 and is connected to the computer collector. The computer collector stores standard patterns that can be compared with images captured by the camera 32 for detection. The conveyor 31 is a double-lane narrow belt conveyor.

[0045] The unqualified outflow section 4 includes a third roller conveyor 41 and a lifting and translation conveyor 42. The lifting and translation conveyor 42 is installed in the third roller conveyor 41. The lifting and translation conveyor 42 is perpendicular to the conveying direction of the third roller conveyor 41.

[0046] The lifting and translating conveyor 42 is connected to a transmission device 47 , and a second stacking machine 48 is provided on the transmission device 47 .

[0047] like Figure 7 、 Figure 8 As shown, the lifting and translating conveyor 42 comprises a base frame 43, a lifting platform 44, a lifting mechanism 45, and a multi-row narrow belt conveyor 46. The lifting platform 44 is mounted on the base frame 43 via the lifting mechanism 45, and the multi-row narrow belt conveyor 46 is mounted on the lifting platform 44. The multiple narrow belts in the multi-row narrow belt conveyor 46 are positioned in the gaps between the rollers of the third roller conveyor 41. The lifting mechanism 45 can have various structures, as long as it can smoothly lift and lower the lifting platform 44. A preferred structure is described below.

[0048] like Figure 9 As shown, the lifting mechanism 45 includes a cylinder 451, a mounting shaft 452, an L-shaped rod 453 and a connecting rod 454. The two mounting shafts 452 are rotatably mounted on the base frame 43. The two ends of the two mounting shafts 452 are fixedly connected to the corner of an L-shaped rod 453. The two L-shaped rods 453 located on the same side of the mounting shaft 452 are a group. The bottom ends of the two L-shaped rods 453 in each group are hinged together by a connecting rod 454. The upper ends of the four L-shaped rods 453 are hinged to the bottom of the lifting platform 44. The cylinder 451 is horizontally mounted on the base frame 43, and the cylinder rod is hinged to one of the L-shaped rods 453.

[0049] The furnace front positioning section 5 includes a fourth roller conveyor 51, a first stacking machine 52, multiple fifth roller conveyors 53 and a third positioning cylinder 54. The first stacking machine 52 is arranged above the fourth roller conveyor 51, and multiple fifth roller conveyors 53 are connected to the fourth roller conveyor 51 in sequence. A third left and right adjustment bracket 55 is provided on the front end fifth roller conveyor 53, and multiple third positioning cylinders 54 are arranged in front of the front end fifth roller conveyor 51.

[0050] The structure of the third left-right adjustment bracket 55 is the same as that of the first left-right adjustment bracket 12 .

[0051] The number of the first positioning cylinder 13 , the second positioning cylinder 23 , and the third positioning cylinder 54 is two or three.

[0052] The first roller conveyor 11 , the second roller conveyor 21 , the third roller conveyor 41 , the fourth roller conveyor 51 and the fifth roller conveyor 53 are all powered roller conveyors.

[0053] The first left-right adjustment bracket 12 is adjusted by manually rotating the handle 19, which adjusts the position of the left adjustment bracket 15 via the first transmission rod 17 through screw drive, and the right adjustment bracket 16 via the second transmission rod 18 through screw drive. During operation, the positions of the two adjustment bars 151 are first adjusted according to the width of the glass. Once the glass reaches the desired position, the left-right position of the glass can be controlled. If the position is still not appropriate, fine-tuning can be performed by rotating the two handles 19.

[0054] In the unqualified outflow section 4, under normal circumstances, the conveying surface of the multi-row narrow belt conveyor 46 is lower than the conveying surface of the third roller conveyor 41. When the detection section 3 detects that the glass printing is unqualified and the glass is transmitted to the multi-row narrow belt conveyor 46, the cylinder 451 is actuated, the L-shaped rod 453 rotates, and the upper end drives the lifting platform 44 to rise, and the multi-row narrow belt conveyor 46 rises accordingly, higher than the third roller conveyor 41, and the unqualified glass is lifted and sent to the transmission device 47, and then temporarily stored in the second stacking machine 48. Then, the unqualified printed patterns are cleaned uniformly, and can be reprinted after washing and drying.

[0055] The working process of the utility model is as follows.

[0056] First, the glass to be printed is placed in pre-positioning section 1. The first left-right adjustment bracket 12 on the pre-positioning section cooperates with the first positioning cylinder 13 to pre-position the glass. Then, the first positioning cylinder 13 retracts, and the glass is conveyed to printing section 2. The second left-right adjustment bracket 22 on printing section 2 maintains the glass's position. After the fiber optic switch detects the glass's arrival, it controls the second positioning cylinder 23 to raise, halting its forward motion. Simultaneously, the second roller conveyor 21 switches from high speed to low speed, and the printing device 24 begins printing on the glass. After printing is complete, the second positioning cylinder 23 lowers, and the second roller conveyor 21 resumes its speed, continuing to convey the glass forward. Once the glass reaches inspection section 3, a camera 32 takes a photo of the printed pattern and uploads it to a computer data collector for comparison with a standard pattern to determine whether the pattern has defects such as ghosting, burrs, broken lines, broken points, or blurring. If the comparison passes, a pass signal is issued; if the comparison fails, a fail signal is issued. Upon receiving the unqualified signal, the lifting and sliding conveyor 42 rises, sorting out the unqualified glass and sending it to the second stacker 47 for temporary storage via the conveyor 47. Upon receiving the qualified signal, the lifting and sliding conveyor 42 stops, and the glass is conveyed to the furnace front positioning section 5 via the third roller conveyor 41. If the heating furnace is feeding normally, the glass passes through the fourth roller conveyor 51 and the fifth roller conveyor 53 before entering the heating furnace for high-temperature sintering. If the heating furnace is temporarily unable to feed, the glass is temporarily stored at the first stacker 52 until the heating furnace is able to feed normally, at which point it is continued to be fed into the heating furnace via the fifth roller conveyor 53.

[0057] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present invention, but the scope of protection of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any changes or substitutions that can be easily conceived by a person skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present invention should be included in the scope of protection of the present invention. Therefore, the scope of protection of the present invention should be based on the scope of protection of the claims.
