[0029] The techniques, methods, and devices known to those skilled in the relevant art can not be discussed in detail, but in appropriate cases, the techniques, methods, and devices should be considered as part of the specification.
[0030] The semi-finished glass can form a finished glass after processing procedures such as pattern processing, hole processing, cutting, and polishing.
[0031] In the related art, scratches can occur between the glass and the processing platform of the processing equipment due to friction, thereby resulting in a low yield of the finished glass.
[0032] In view of this, the present disclosure provides a glass processing equipment, which can reduce the friction scratches caused by the direct contact between the glass and the processing platform by laying one or more layers of buffer members with smaller hardness than the glass on the processing platform before placing the glass to be processed on the processing platform, thereby avoiding the problem of low yield of the finished glass caused by friction between the glass and the processing platform. In addition, after the glass on the buffer member is processed, the glass and the buffer member can be removed together. Thus, after multiple glass processing is completed, multiple glasses are stacked together, and there is a buffer member between the two adjacent glasses above and below, so as to reduce the operation time and operation procedure of setting the buffer member between the two adjacent glasses above and below again.
[0033] The present disclosure provides a glass processing equipment, which is described with reference to Figures 1 to 3As shown, it can include: a support device 1, a processing device 2 and a moving device 3, the support device 1 has a first support platform 11 and a second support platform 12, the first support platform 11 has a first support space 111 for supporting a first hardness object 4, the second support platform 12 has a second support space 121 for supporting a second hardness object 5, the second hardness is greater than the first hardness; the processing device 2 has a processing platform 21, the processing platform 21 has a processing space 211, the thickness of the processing space 211 is greater than the sum of the thicknesses of the first support space 111 and the second support space 121; the moving device 3 includes: a moving mechanism (not shown in the figure), which can move between any two of the first support platform 11, the second support platform 12 and the processing platform 21, and can take or release the supported objects of any platform.
[0034] The support device 1 is used at least for supporting the first hardness object 4 and the second hardness object 5; the first support platform 11 can have a first support surface extending in a first horizontal plane, and the space above the first support surface is the first support space 111 to support the first hardness object 4, and the first support space 111 can be multiple and stacked in sequence from the first support surface upwards, and one first support space 111 can support one first hardness object 4; the second support platform 12 can have a second support surface extending in a second horizontal plane, and the space above the second support surface is the second support space 121 to support the second hardness object 5, and the second support space 121 can be multiple and stacked in sequence from the second support surface upwards, and one first support space 111 can support one second hardness object 5. The hardness of the first hardness object 4 is less than the hardness of the second hardness object 5, for example: the first hardness object 4 is a cushioning paper, a cushioning sponge, a cushioning non-woven fabric, etc., and the second hardness object 5 is a glass to be processed, a wood board to be processed, etc., and hereinafter, the first hardness object 4 is taken as paper and the second hardness object 5 is taken as glass to be processed.
[0035] The processing device 2 includes a processing platform 21, which can have a processing plane extending in a third plane, and the space above the processing plane can form a processing space 211, which can place the cushioning paper and the glass to be processed. The thickness of the processing space 211 is greater than the sum of the thicknesses of the first support space 111 and the second support space 121, so as to support the placement of the cushioning paper and the glass to be processed at the same time. The processing of the glass by the processing device 2 can be to process a through hole, or to process a concave-convex pattern on one side surface of the glass, or other processing effects.
[0036] The moving mechanism can take the object on any one of the first supporting platform 11, the second supporting platform 12 and the processing platform 21, and can release the object on any one of the first supporting platform 11, the second supporting platform 12 and the processing platform 21.
[0037] In an example, referring to Figures 1 to 3 As shown in the figure, the glass processing equipment can include a supporting device 1, a processing device 2 and a moving device 3. The supporting device 1 has a first supporting platform 11 and a second supporting platform 12. The first supporting platform 11 has a first supporting space 111 for supporting a first hardness object 4, and the first hardness object 4 is a buffering paper. The second supporting platform 12 has a second supporting space 121 for supporting a second hardness object 5, and the second hardness object 5 is a glass to be processed. The hardness of the glass is greater than the hardness of the buffering paper. The processing device 2 has a processing platform 21, and the processing platform 21 has a processing space 211. The thickness of the processing space 211 is greater than the sum of the thicknesses of the first supporting space 111 and the second supporting space 121, so as to support the buffering paper and the glass to be processed at the same time. The moving device 3 includes a moving mechanism. The moving mechanism can move between any two of the first supporting platform 11, the second supporting platform 12 and the processing platform 21, and can take the supported object on any one of the first supporting platform 11, the second supporting platform 12 and the processing platform 21 or release the supported object to any one of the first supporting platform 11, the second supporting platform 12 and the processing platform 21. An operation method of the glass processing equipment is as follows.
[0038] S101: The moving mechanism moves the buffering paper in the first supporting space 111 to the processing platform 21.
[0039] S102: The moving mechanism moves the glass to be processed in the second supporting space 121 to the buffering paper on the processing platform 21.
[0040] S103: The processing mechanism of the processing device 2 processes the glass to be processed on the processing platform 21.
[0041] S104: The moving mechanism moves the processed glass and the buffering paper together to a transfer platform, so as to pack the processed glass and the buffering paper together.
[0042] In the embodiment, the glass processing device can include a supporting device 1, a processing device 2 and a moving device 3. The supporting device 1 can support the buffer and the glass to be processed. The moving device 3 can move the buffer and the glass to be processed on the supporting device 1 to the processing platform 21 of the processing device 2 in sequence. Then, the processing device 2 can process the glass at least. During the processing, the buffer can avoid the friction between the glass and the processing platform 21, thereby improving the processing yield of the glass. In addition, the glass processed and the buffer between the processing platform 21 and the glass can be moved to other platforms as a whole to continuously protect the glass by the buffer.
[0043] In some embodiments, referring to Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the space above the upper surface of the processing platform 21 is a processing space 211. The processing space 211 includes a first thickness space 2111 and a second thickness space 2112. The first thickness space 2111 and the second thickness space 2112 are arranged in a stack, and the first thickness space 2111 is located below the second thickness space 2112. The first thickness space 2111 is used to support the first hardness object 4, and the second thickness space 2112 is used to support the second hardness object 5. The moving device 3 further includes a turnover mechanism 31. The turnover mechanism 31 is arranged adjacent to the processing platform 21, and is used to turn over the supported object in the second thickness space 2112.
[0044] In this way, the processing platform 21 can support the buffer paper and the glass to be processed in sequence. After the first surface of the glass to be processed away from the paper is processed, the turnover mechanism 31 can be used to turn over the glass to be processed to continue processing the second surface of the glass to be processed away from the first surface, so as to realize the purpose of processing the two opposite surfaces of the glass in sequence.
[0045] The turnover mechanism 31 can include a mechanical hand. The mechanical hand can hold the glass on the processing platform 21, first lift it, then turn it over and lower it to release it on the processing platform 21. The structure of the mechanical hand is mature in manufacturing process. It can not only be mass-produced, but also be stable during turnover, so as to reduce the probability of glass breakage caused by falling glass during turnover. Alternatively, referring to Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, the overturning mechanism 31 can include a connecting arm 311, a rotating shaft 312 and an overturning part 313. The connecting arm 311 can be lifted and lowered. The rotating shaft 312 is rotationally connected to the connecting arm 311 and connected to the overturning part 313. In the overturning operation, the connecting arm 311 is lowered, the overturning part 313 is attached to and adsorbed on the glass on the processing platform 21, the connecting arm 311 is raised, the overturning part 313 overturns the glass in the process of rotating the rotating shaft 312 relative to the connecting arm 311, the connecting arm 311 is lowered, and the overturning part 313 releases the glass. Of course, the overturning mechanism 31 can be other settings, which are not limited here.
[0046] In some embodiments, the first thickness space 2111 has a smaller thickness than the second thickness space 2112. That is, the first hardness object 4 has a smaller thickness than the second hardness object 5. In this way, the use of the buffer can be reduced while supporting the protection of the glass processing process, thereby reducing costs and reducing the occupation of the space by the buffer.
[0047] For example, after the glass is processed, the processed glass and the buffer between the glass and the processing platform 21 are transferred to other platforms together. The thickness of the buffer is small, so as to reduce the occupation of the space in the thickness dimension of the other platform.
[0048] In some embodiments, the processing mechanism of the processing device 2 processes the object in the second thickness space 2112. In other words, the processing device 2 processes the glass on the processing platform 21 to complete the processing of the glass to be processed into finished glass. The processing can be processing the first surface of the glass away from the processing platform 21, processing the side surface of the glass, or processing the second surface of the glass after overturning the glass.
[0049] In some embodiments, the processing mechanism of the processing device 2 synchronously processes the objects in the second thickness space 2112 and the first thickness space 2111. In other words, the processing device 2 synchronously processes the glass and the buffer on the processing platform 21. For example, a plurality of through holes are synchronously processed in the glass and the buffer. The glass with the through hole can allow a screw to pass through the through hole to be screwed on a wall surface or the like. For another example, the peripheral surface of the glass and the buffer is synchronously cut.
[0050] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the processing device 2 is further provided with at least one adsorption channel 22. One end opening 221 of the adsorption channel 22 corresponds to the upper surface of the processing platform 21.
[0051] Alternatively, when the first hardness object 4 is placed on the processing platform 21, a vacuum can be drawn through the adsorption channel 22 to more firmly adsorb the first hardness object 4 onto the processing platform 21. After processing the second hardness object 5 on the first hardness object 4, gas can be released through the adsorption channel 22 so that the first hardness object 4 can be removed directly after the second hardness object 5 is removed, or the second hardness object 5 and the first hardness object 4 can be removed simultaneously. The adsorption channel 22 not only enables the adsorption of buffer components during glass processing, but also provides a convenient and quick vacuuming method.
[0052] In some embodiments, see Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, multiple adsorption channels 22 are evenly distributed on the upper surface of the processing platform 21 with multiple openings 221. The evenly distributed openings 221 can simultaneously draw vacuum to different positions of the first hardness object 4 and simultaneously release the first hardness object 4, so that the first hardness object 4 can be placed more stably on the processing platform 21.
[0053] In some embodiments, the processing apparatus 2 further includes a limiting portion (not shown in the figure), disposed on the upper surface of the processing platform 21 and corresponding to two adjacent boundaries of the processing space 211, wherein the thickness of the limiting portion is greater than the thickness of the processing space 211. Thus, during the process of placing the first hardness object 4 and the second hardness object 5 on the processing platform 21, the two adjacent sides of the first hardness object 4 and the two adjacent sides of the second hardness object 5 can abut against the limiting portion, thereby limiting the position of the first hardness object 4 and the second hardness object 5 on the processing platform 21, thereby improving processing efficiency.
[0054] In one example, the limiting part has a first limiting surface and a second limiting surface that are perpendicular to each other. During the stacking of a rectangular first hardness object 4 and a rectangular second hardness object 5 on the processing platform 21, two adjacent sides of the first hardness object 4 can abut against the first and second limiting surfaces, and then two adjacent sides of the second hardness object 5 can abut against the first and second limiting surfaces, thereby processing the second hardness object 5. Due to the limiting effect of the first and second limiting surfaces, the first hardness object 4 and the second hardness object 5 can be quickly positioned on the processing platform 21, and the probability of the first hardness object 4 shifting is reduced when the adsorption channel 22 is under vacuum.
[0055] In some embodiments, the hardness of the upper surface of the processing platform 21 meets the condition of consistency with the first hardness. Alternatively, the hardness of the upper surface of the processing platform 21 tends to be consistent with the hardness of the object 4 with the first hardness. This consistency can include: complete consistency, or incomplete consistency but with a very small difference, so as to reduce the probability of friction between the processing platform 21 and the object 4 with the first hardness causing scratches. The material of the upper surface of the processing platform 21 may be the same as or different from the material of the object 4 with the first hardness.
[0056] In some embodiments, see Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the first support platform 11, the second support platform 12, and the processing platform 21 are on the same horizontal plane. In this way, the first hardness object 4 can be moved from the first support platform 11 to the processing platform 21, and the second hardness object 5 can be moved from the second support platform 12 to the processing platform 21 by the moving mechanism. The transfer process can be realized without a lifting process, which can shorten the time required for movement and simplify the moving device 3.
[0057] The embodiments of this disclosure have now been described in detail. To avoid obscuring the concept of this disclosure, some details known in the art have not been described.
