TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application belongs to the field of carrier plate glass production, and particularly relates to a glass edge material recycling and cleaning device. BACKGROUND

[0002] In the production process of carrier plate glass, the side edges need to be cut according to size requirements, and the cut-off waste can be recycled, re-melted and re-processed into carrier plate glass.

[0003] Since the edge cutting station of the carrier plate glass is located on a conveying roller, the edge material falling after cutting usually falls to the ground and is then collected manually. However, the height of the conveying roller is large, the range of the scattered glass edge material is large, and manual collection is difficult. If a special conveying belt is arranged at the bottom of the conveying roller to convey the falling waste, the cost is high, and the height of the conveying belt needs to be adjusted so that the falling edge material will not bounce out of the conveying belt, and the reliability is not high. Moreover, the glass debris falling to the ground will be covered with dust, and if recycling is needed, a cleaning process is required, which is time-consuming and laborious.

[0004] Therefore, a new type of glass edge material recycling and cleaning device is needed to solve the above problems. CONTENT OF THE INVENTION

[0030] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this application clearer, the technical solutions of this application will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with specific embodiments and corresponding drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of this application, and not all of them. Based on the embodiments in this application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0031] like Figures 1 to 3As shown, the glass edge material recycling and cleaning device in an embodiment of the present application comprises a conveying roller 100, which is located at the edge cutting station. The bottom of the conveying roller 100 is a material receiving tray 110, and the front and rear sides of the material receiving tray 110 are provided with cleaning material channels 120. A material pushing system is arranged on the material receiving tray 110, which is used to push the glass edge material forward and backward into the cleaning material channels 120. The cleaning material channels 120 are provided with spray heads 121 and are arranged obliquely. The oblique arrangement of the cleaning material channels 120 helps the glass debris to slide off. The spray heads 121 can wash the glass debris and form a water flow to assist the glass debris to slide off.

[0032] Through the scheme of the embodiment, the glass edge material and debris falling during the edge cutting operation can be received by the material receiving tray 110, so as to not fall to the ground. The material pushing system can push the collected glass debris into the cleaning material channels 120. The cleaning liquid sprayed by the spray heads in the cleaning material channels directly cleans the glass debris, which is collected by the cleaning material channels 120 and falls to the bottom of the recycling vehicle, without manual collection.

[0033] In an embodiment of the present application, the material pushing system comprises a driving mechanism and a material pushing shovel 210. The driving mechanism drives the material pushing shovel 210 to move forward and backward on the material receiving tray 110. The forward and backward movement of the material pushing shovel 210 pushes the falling glass debris forward and backward into the cleaning material channels 120 at both ends to complete the recycling.

[0034] In an embodiment of the present application, the material pushing shovel 210 comprises shovel heads 211 on the front and rear sides, which are wedge-shaped and arranged close to the material receiving tray 110. The wedge-shaped shovel heads 211 can push the glass debris and glass pieces close to the material receiving tray 110, which is suitable for recycling thinner carrier plate glass.

[0035] In an embodiment of the present application, a baffle 212 is arranged above the material pushing shovel 210 on the shovel head 211. The length of the baffle 212 is not less than the length of the shovel head 211. The baffle 212 can block the fine particles generated during the pushing process, avoid the debris bouncing onto the carrier plate glass above, and protect the carrier plate glass from being contaminated with dust or being scratched.

[0036] In an embodiment of the present application, the top of the material pushing shovel 210 is an inclined surface 213. The inclined surface 213 can make the glass debris falling onto the material pushing shovel 210 slide onto the material receiving tray 110, avoiding the glass debris from piling up on the top and rubbing against the bottom surface of the carrier plate glass.

[0037] The material pushing shovel 210 is made of nylon material, for example, which has the advantages of wear resistance and small friction. Iron or copper sheets are wrapped around the shovel head 211 to improve the wear resistance.

[0038] In an embodiment of the present application, the driving mechanism comprises a driving motor 221, an angle wheel 222 and a pull rope 223, the driving motor 221 and the angle wheel 222 are fixed to the two side mounting frames of the conveying roller 100 and form a quadrilateral, the two ends of the pull rope 223 are fixed to the front and rear sides of the pushing shovel 210, and the pull rope 223 is wound on the driving motor 221 and the angle wheel 222 to form a quadrilateral. The forward and reverse rotation of the driving motor 221 can control the forward and backward movement of the pushing shovel 210, so that the control system is more simple and convenient.

[0039] Two pull rope 223 fixing holes are arranged at the front and rear ends of the pushing shovel 210, and the two ends of the pull rope 223 are arranged around the driving motor 221 and the angle wheel 222 after being fixed in the two fixing holes; the angle wheel 222 is fixed to the side corner of the conveying roller 100, so that the pull rope 223 is arranged on the outside to avoid affecting the pushing shovel 210.

[0040] In an embodiment of the present application, a dust cover 122 is arranged at the opening of the cleaning channel 120, and the dust cover 122 is opened or closed under the pushing of the pushing shovel 210. When pushing, the pushing shovel 210 pushes away the dust cover 122 to make it enter the cleaning channel 120, and after being moved away, the dust cover 122 can temporarily block the cleaning channel 120, so as to avoid dust or water mist from overflowing and polluting the top glass plate.

[0041] The dust cover 122 is slidingly connected to the receiving disc 110, the front ends of the two sides of the dust cover 122 are connected to the receiving disc 110 through a reset spring 124, the top of the dust cover 122 is provided with a protruding push block 123, and the push block 123 can be pushed by the push block 123 to open the opening of the cleaning channel 120.

[0042] When the pushing shovel 210 pushes the push block 123 to push away the dust cover 122 to expose the opening, and continues to move to push the glass debris into the cleaning channel 120, the pushing shovel 210 moves reversely, and the reset spring 124 pulls the dust cover 122 to reset and block the opening again.

[0043] According to an embodiment of the present application, the beneficial effects of the glass edge material recycling and cleaning device are that the glass debris can be automatically stacked, a large amount of dust can be avoided in the recycling process, and the recycling efficiency and safety are greatly improved.
