Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of glass transfer technology, specifically a glass transfer device. Background Technology

[0002] Glass is an amorphous inorganic material widely used in construction, industry, automobiles, electronics and other fields. It has the characteristics of transparency, hardness and corrosion resistance. As an important amorphous material, glass has a wide range of applications and good market prospects. With the continuous progress of technology and the increase in market demand, the glass industry will continue to develop towards high performance, environmental protection, intelligence and multi-functionality.

[0003] In glass production, glass transfer devices are needed to move glass to the work station. However, these glass transfer devices are mostly used to transport flat glass, and they are not suitable for curved or other irregularly shaped glass. Moreover, their stability cannot be guaranteed. Therefore, a transfer device specifically for curved or other irregularly shaped glass is needed. Utility Model Content

[0004] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this invention provides a glass transfer device that solves the problems mentioned in the background section.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a glass transfer device, comprising a support column, a mounting plate at the top of the support column, a transfer drive mechanism at the top of the mounting plate, a translation plate as a moving component of the transfer drive mechanism, a rotary drive base on the upper surface of the translation plate, a lifting column at the top of the rotary drive base, and a glass suction cup assembly at the top of the lifting column via a spring.

[0006] Optionally, the glass suction cup assembly includes a main suction cup and multiple auxiliary suction cups, with the main suction cup positioned at the top of the lifting column.

[0007] Optionally, the number of auxiliary suction cups is four, and the four auxiliary suction cups are arranged in a ring around the main suction cup.

[0008] Optionally, the bottoms of the four auxiliary suction cups are all fixed to the circumference of the lifting column by side support rods.

[0009] Optionally, a stabilizing ring is fitted onto the surface of the lifting column, and the bottom of the stabilizing ring is connected to the translation plate by a reinforcing strut.

[0010] Optionally, the surface of the translation plate is provided with sensing components for sensing the height and orientation of the glass.

[0011] This utility model provides a glass transfer device, which has the following beneficial effects:

[0012] 1. This glass transfer device uses a transfer drive mechanism and a sliding plate to carry the glass for horizontal movement. A rotating drive base allows for the rotation of the glass to adjust its orientation for better processing. A lifting column controls the glass height, increasing the device's flexibility. Multiple auxiliary suction cups work in conjunction with the main suction cup to expand the contact area with the glass, ensuring stable glass transfer. Springs allow the suction cups to flexibly contact the glass surface and provide adjustable distances for the suction cups, enabling the adsorption and fixation of curved or other irregularly shaped glass for transfer.

[0013] 2. This glass transfer device improves the stability of the lifting column by setting up a stabilizing ring and reinforcing support rod, thereby ensuring stable glass transfer. The sensor component is set up to sense the glass being transferred, so that the operator can easily adjust the glass position. Attached Figure Description

[0018] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.

[0019] Please see Figures 1 to 3This utility model provides a technical solution: a glass transfer device, including a support column 1, a mounting plate 2 on the top of the support column 1, a transfer drive mechanism 3 on the top of the mounting plate 2, and a translation plate 7 on the moving part of the transfer drive mechanism 3. The transfer drive mechanism 3 and the translation plate 7 work together to carry the glass for translation. The surface of the translation plate 7 is provided with a sensing component 12 for sensing the height and orientation of the glass. The sensing component 12 senses the glass being transferred, allowing the operator to adjust the glass's orientation based on the sensed information. The upper surface of the translation plate 7... A rotary drive base 4 is provided, which allows the transplanted glass to be rotated and its orientation adjusted for better glass processing. A lifting column 5 is provided on the top of the rotary drive base 4, which allows the height of the glass to be controlled, improving the flexibility of the device. A stabilizing ring 10 is fitted onto the surface of the lifting column 5, and the bottom of the stabilizing ring 10 is connected to the translation plate 7 by a reinforcing support rod 11. The stabilizing ring 10 and the reinforcing support rod 11 improve the stability of the lifting column 5, further ensuring the stable transplantation of glass and improving the load-bearing capacity.

[0020] A glass suction cup assembly 6 is installed at the top of the lifting column 5 via a spring 8. The spring 8 allows the glass suction cup assembly to flexibly contact the glass. That is, the main suction cup 601 and multiple auxiliary suction cups 602 have a certain adjustable distance from the placed glass. They can be suctioned and fixed downward, upward, or slightly tilted according to the surface curve of curved or other irregularly shaped glass to adapt to different glass surfaces and ensure stable transplantation. The glass suction cup assembly 6 includes a main suction cup 601 and multiple auxiliary suction cups 602. The main suction cup 601 is located at the top of the lifting column 5. There are four auxiliary suction cups 602, which are arranged in a ring around the main suction cup 601. The bottom of each of the four auxiliary suction cups 602 is fixed to the circumference of the lifting column 5 by a side support rod 9. The four auxiliary suction cups 602 and the main suction cup 601 work together to increase the contact area with the glass and achieve stable glass transplantation.

[0021] In this invention, the working steps of the device are as follows:

[0022] The glass is placed on the glass suction cup assembly 6 by manual or robotic arm. The four auxiliary suction cups 602 and the main suction cup 601 work together to adhere to the bottom surface of the glass. At the same time, the sensing component 12 senses that the glass is in place and notifies the transplanting drive mechanism 3 to transplant it, or notifies the rotation drive base 4 to drive the lifting column 5 to rotate the glass and adjust its position when it senses that the glass is not in the correct position.

[0023] After being placed in place, the glass is moved to different operating positions by the transfer drive mechanism 3 driving the translation plate 7. The glass height can also be sensed by the sensing component 12. At different glass processing positions, the glass height is adjusted by the lifting column 5 according to the different glass processing height requirements.

[0024] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or changes made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model, based on the technical solution and the inventive concept of the present utility model, should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
