AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Drag chain cables are damaged due to excessive bending in glass stacking machines, affecting normal production. Existing technology cannot effectively measure the number of bending, leading to forced shutdowns or replacements.

Method used

A bending counting mechanism is used to measure the number of bends of the drag chain cable through a light emitter and a light receiver, and to actively replace it before it reaches the number of bends it is supposed to last.

Benefits of technology

This technology enables proactive replacement of drag chain cables before they reach their lifespan bending cycle, avoiding involuntary shutdowns and ensuring the normal production of the glass stacker.

Abstract

The utility model relates to the technical field of glass production equipment, in particular to a drag chain cable device of a glass stacking machine and the glass stacking machine. The rack comprises a bottom plate, a first side plate and a second side plate, and the first side plate and the second side plate are connected to the two opposite sides of the bottom plate; the sliding mechanism is slidably connected to the first side plate in the length direction of the rack; the body comprises a fixed end and a movable end, the fixed end is connected to the bottom plate, the movable end is connected with the sliding mechanism, and the movable end is higher than the fixed end; the bending counting mechanism comprises a light emitter and a light receiver, the light receiver is arranged on the second side plate, the horizontal connecting line of the light receiver and the fixed end is perpendicular to the length direction, the light emitter is arranged on the sliding mechanism and emits light, and the light can be received by the light receiver to obtain the bending times of the body. According to the invention, the bending times of the drag chain cable can be metered.
