Detailed Implementation
[0024] To better understand and implement this invention, the technical solutions in the embodiments of this invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0025] In the description of this utility model, it should be noted that the terms "upper", "lower", "front", "rear", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inner", and "outer" indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings. They are only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this utility model.
[0026] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this invention pertains. The terminology used herein is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to be limiting of the invention.
[0027] See Figures 1-5 This utility model discloses a high-efficiency turntable. The turntable is provided with multiple first conveying components, positioning components and turning components. The multiple first conveying components are distributed at intervals on the turntable and extend along a first inclined direction. The multiple first conveying components together form a first conveying surface. Since the multiple first conveying components extend along the first inclined direction, the first conveying surface is also inclined.
[0028] The aforementioned positioning member is located on the side of the first conveying surface. The positioning member has a positioning surface, and the extending direction of the positioning surface is set at an angle to the first inclined direction. The inclined first conveying surface can guide the glass to abut against the positioning surface. The aforementioned turning member 30 has a turning surface, which extends along the second inclined direction. The turning surface is used to contact the glass and guide the glass to turn and be conveyed to the first conveying surface.
[0029] It should be noted that the high-efficiency turntable in this embodiment also includes a frame 10. The aforementioned first conveying component, positioning component, and turning component are all mounted on the frame 10. The extension direction of the positioning surface can be the length direction of the frame 10, while the first tilting direction and the second tilting direction can both be tilted in the width direction of the frame 10. Furthermore, this high-efficiency turntable can be used in glass processing equipment, such as an edging machine. The following description uses an edging machine as an example:
[0030] The glass is conveyed via a turning table at the previous station, and the turning table is positioned at the starting point of multiple first conveying components. When the glass is conveyed from the previous station, it travels along the length of the frame 10. The turning surface of the turning component 30 is inclined in a second direction, forming an angle with the length direction. After the inclined turning surface abuts against the glass at its turning point, it can decompose the lateral force, pushing the glass to turn. During continuous forward conveying, the glass, guided by the turning surface, turns and is conveyed towards the first conveying surface. Since the first conveying surface is inclined along the second direction, the conveying direction it provides is also inclined, decomposing into forces in both the length and width directions. The force in the width direction pushes the glass towards the positioning surface to align it after turning, while the force in the length direction conveys the glass, after abutting against the positioning surface, towards the next station.
[0031] Thus, in this embodiment, the glass is turned after the tilted steering surface of the tilting component 30 contacts the glass, and the glass is guided into the tilted first conveying surface. Multiple tilted first conveying components work with positioning components to straighten the glass after the turn. This simplifies the glass turning structure, and after the turn, the positioning surface abuts against the side of the glass for positioning and conveying, thus achieving higher glass turning and conveying accuracy.
[0032] Furthermore, the aforementioned first conveying component includes a first conveying shaft 21 and a plurality of first conveying wheels 22. The first conveying shaft 21 is arranged along a first inclined direction, and the plurality of first conveying wheels 22 are spaced apart on the first conveying shaft 21. Since the first conveying shaft 21 is arranged along the first inclined direction, the first conveying wheels 22 distributed on the first conveying shaft 21 are also distributed along the first inclined direction. When conveying glass, the plurality of first conveying wheels 22 can tilt toward the positioning surface to push the glass toward the positioning surface and convey it toward the next work station.
[0033] Specifically, the multiple first conveying wheels 22 on each of the first conveying shafts 21 are arranged in a one-to-one correspondence, and the first conveying wheels 22 of each of the first conveying shafts 21 on the first conveying surface can be connected to the corresponding conveying points on the same straight line on the first conveying surface, making the conveying process more stable.
[0034] Furthermore, in this embodiment, at least two steering components 30 are provided. The at least two steering components 30 are arranged in the second inclined direction and together form a steering surface. The steering surface formed by the at least two steering components 30 is relatively large. When the glass size is relatively large, contact steering is performed with a relatively large steering surface, so the steering process is more stable.
[0035] Furthermore, the positioning component includes multiple positioning wheels, which are positioned on the side of the first conveying surface and spaced apart. Specifically, the multiple positioning wheels can be spaced apart along the length of the frame 10, and the wheel surfaces of the multiple positioning wheels together form a positioning surface. The turning surface of the steering component 30 connects with the wheel surface of the outermost positioning wheel. In this way, the turning surface is distributed outside the positioning surface at the starting position of the first conveying surface. After receiving the glass, the turning surface contacts the glass, pushing the glass toward the positioning surface, and then it can be aligned and conveyed through the first conveying surface.
[0036] Specifically, the aforementioned positioning component also includes a positioning frame 40, on which multiple positioning wheels are rotatably mounted. The positioning frame 40 is provided with a rotatable swing arm 41. When the glass enters the first conveying surface after turning, the swing arm 41 can block and buffer it, rather than directly facing the positioning surface, so that the glass can smoothly transition during turning.
[0037] Furthermore, the positioning frame 40 is provided with a positioning shaft, and the swing arm 41 is provided with a swing hole. The positioning shaft is rotatably inserted into the swing hole, and the positioning wheel is rotatably connected to the positioning frame 40 through the positioning shaft. When the glass contacts the swing arm 41, the swing arm 41 can swing and slide relative to the swing hole, which is suitable for different glass sizes.
[0038] Furthermore, a second conveying component can be provided on the turntable. The second conveying component is located at the starting end of the first conveying surface and forms a second conveying surface. The second conveying surface connects with the first conveying surface and is used to receive glass and convey it to the first conveying surface. A turning component 30 is located on the side of the second conveying surface. The second conveying surface is set at an angle to the extension direction of the first conveying surface. The second conveying surface is set perpendicular to the extension direction of the positioning surface. In this way, the glass can be conveyed from the previous station to the turntable. The second conveying surface, which is located at the position indicated by the turntable, conveys the glass along the length direction of the frame 10. When the inclined turning surface contacts the glass conveyed along the length direction, the straight-line conveying force combined with the inclined turning surface makes it easier for the glass to turn.
[0039] Furthermore, the aforementioned second conveying component includes a second conveying shaft 51 and a plurality of second conveying wheels 52. The plurality of second conveying wheels 52 are spaced apart on the second conveying shaft 51. When the glass is conveyed from the previous station to the turntable, it can be received and conveyed by the plurality of second conveying wheels 52.
[0040] It should also be noted that the conveying action of the first conveying shaft 21 and the second conveying shaft 51 can also be driven by a motor. Of course, the first conveying component and the second conveying component can also be implemented using other conveying structures such as conveying rollers in the prior art.
[0041] Further, see Figure 4 as well as Figure 5 The high-efficiency turntable also includes multiple third conveying components, a workpiece platform 70, and a workpiece platform drive 71. The multiple third conveying components together form a third conveying surface. The workpiece platform 70 is located on the third conveying surface. The workpiece platform drive 71 is used to drive the workpiece platform 70 to move up and down and to drive the workpiece platform 70 to rotate.
[0042] When turning smaller glass, the workpiece platform drive 71 can drive the workpiece platform 70 downward and make it flush with the third conveying surface. Multiple third conveying components can directly convey the glass along the length of the frame 10 to the turning table, so that the smaller glass can be turned and changed.
[0043] When turning larger pieces of glass, the glass is conveyed to the workpiece platform 70 via the third conveyor. Then, the workpiece platform drive 71 drives the workpiece platform 70 upward, lifting the glass above the third conveyor surface. The workpiece platform drive 71 then rotates the workpiece platform 70, causing the glass to turn and change sides. After the glass turns, the workpiece platform drive 71 drives the workpiece platform 70 downward until it is flush with the third conveyor surface, and the third conveyor then conveys the turned glass downwards.
[0044] Of course, the aforementioned third conveying component can also be formed by a third conveying shaft and multiple third conveying wheels. Multiple third conveying shafts can be spaced apart along the length of the frame, and multiple third conveying wheels can be spaced apart on the third conveying shafts. The workpiece platform is a frame structure, and the frame bars of the frame structure can be distributed between the intervals of adjacent third conveying shafts and between the intervals of adjacent third conveying wheels to facilitate the up and down movement of the workpiece platform.
[0045] It should be noted that the aforementioned workpiece stage driving component 71 can be formed by combining a drive motor, a drive cylinder, an oil cylinder, etc., as used in the prior art. Specifically, a mounting base can be set on the rotating shaft of the drive motor, and then the drive cylinder, oil cylinder, etc. can be installed on the mounting base and connected to the workpiece stage 70.
[0046] The technical means disclosed in this utility model are not limited to those disclosed in the above embodiments, but also include technical solutions composed of any combination of the above technical features. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various improvements and modifications without departing from the principle of this utility model, and these improvements and modifications are also considered within the scope of protection of this utility model.
