[0002] Insulating glass units are sealed around the perimeter with a high-strength, airtight composite adhesive, bonding two or more panes of glass to the sealing strips and glass panes. Dry gas is filled in the space between the panes, and a desiccant is placed inside the frame to ensure the dryness of the air between the glass panes.

[0003] Chinese invention patent CN202111261721.4 discloses a sealing device for insulated glass. The glass to be sealed is placed on a rotating platform on a workbench, and the edges of the glass are sealed by spraying glue. In this sealing method, the glass is placed horizontally, and the surface of the glass is relatively smooth.

[0023] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0024] A sealing device for insulating glass production, combined with Figures 1 to 5 As shown, the system includes a workbench 1 with three sets of conveyor belts arranged horizontally from left to right. A glue-applying mechanism 4 is located between the first and second conveyor belts to apply glue to the inner edges of the glass. A glass-joining mechanism is located on the opposite side of the second conveyor belt from the glue-applying mechanism to join the glued glass pieces together. A sealing mechanism 5 is located between the second and third conveyor belts to seal the joined glass pieces. A control box 9 is located on the workbench 1 to control the sealing operation. The control box has control buttons and contains a PLC controller. The outputs of the control buttons are connected to the inputs of the PLC controller, and the outputs of the PLC controller are connected to the inputs of the glue-applying mechanism, the glass-joining mechanism, and the sealing mechanism, respectively.

[0025] Each set of conveyor belts has a vertical baffle 3 installed on the inner side of the worktable 1 to support the glass. A support roller 31 is installed on one side of the conveyor belt on the vertical baffle 3 to support the glass. The support roller can move with the glass when it moves.

[0026] The first group of conveyor belts is a first conveyor belt 21 that moves back and forth, the second group of conveyor belts is a second conveyor belt 22 and a third conveyor belt 23 that are arranged side by side, and the third group of conveyor belts is a fourth conveyor belt 24 that corresponds to the position of the second conveyor belt 22.

[0027] A transmission belt push cylinder 211 is installed on the workbench 1 on the opposite side of the vertical baffle 3 of the first conveyor belt 21. This cylinder is used to push the first conveyor belt to move back and forth. The input end of the transmission belt push cylinder is connected to the output end of the PLC controller. When processing glass, the glass is conveyed by the first conveyor belt. When conveying the first piece of glass, the transmission belt push cylinder pushes the first conveyor belt 21 and the second conveyor belt 22 to convey it. During the conveying process to the second conveyor belt, the inner edge of the first piece of glass is glued by a glue-applying mechanism.

[0028] The workbench 1 is equipped with an adhesive box 6, which is connected to the adhesive dispensing mechanism and is used to hold adhesive.

[0029] The glue application mechanism 4 includes a glue application bracket 41 vertically mounted on the worktable 1. A guide groove is provided on the side of the glue application bracket 41 facing the conveyor belt, and a glue application lifting platform 42 is installed within the guide groove. A glue application lifting cylinder 43 is installed at the top of the glue application bracket 41, and a glue application nozzle 45 is installed at the end of the glue application lifting platform 42 via a glue application nozzle bracket 44 for applying glue to the inner edge of the glass. A glue application pushing cylinder 46 is installed on the side of the worktable 1. The telescopic rod of the glue application pushing cylinder is connected to the back of the glue application bracket 41 to drive the glue application bracket 41 to move back and forth, thereby realizing the back and forth movement of the glue application nozzle.

[0030] The glue nozzle 45 is connected to the glue tank 6 via the glue tube 62. The glue tube is equipped with a glue pump 61, which is used to deliver the glue in the glue tank to the glue nozzle. The input terminals of the glue pump, the glue pushing cylinder, and the glue lifting cylinder are respectively connected to the output terminals of the PLC controller.

[0031] When applying sealant to the first piece of glass, as it is conveyed forward by the first conveyor belt, the sealant-applying cylinder and the lifting cylinder work simultaneously to move the sealant applicator to the edge of the glass. During the forward movement of the glass, sealant is applied to one horizontal side. After the horizontal side is finished, the lifting cylinder moves the sealant applicator up and down to apply sealant to the adjacent vertical side of the glass. When the sealant reaches the end, the first and second conveyor belts move backward to apply sealant to the other horizontal side of the glass. After the horizontal sealant is finished, the sealant is applied to the other adjacent vertical side, thus achieving overlap of the sealant application. After the sealant application is completed, the glass is temporarily stored on the second conveyor belt 22. At this time, the conveyor belt-propelling cylinder drives the first conveyor belt 21 to a position opposite to the third conveyor belt 23, conveying the glass to the third conveyor belt. When the glass is conveyed to the third conveyor belt 23, the glass on the third conveyor belt is pushed onto the second conveyor belt by the joining mechanism for joining.

[0032] The glass assembly mechanism includes an assembly support 83 vertically mounted on the worktable 1. An assembly cylinder 81 is located inside the assembly support 83, and an assembly push plate 82 is located at the end of the cylinder's telescopic rod. This push plate is used to push the glass from the third conveyor belt 23 onto the second conveyor belt 22 for assembly. The input end of the assembly cylinder is connected to the output end of a PLC controller. After the glass is assembled, it is conveyed forward via the second conveyor belt 22 to the fourth conveyor belt. During this conveying process, a sealing mechanism seals the edges of the assembled glass.

[0033] A sealant box 7 is provided on the workbench 1. The sealant box 7 is connected to the sealing mechanism and is used to hold sealant.

[0034] The sealing mechanism 5 includes a sealing bracket 51 vertically mounted on the workbench 1. The sealing bracket 51 has a guide groove on the side facing the conveyor belt. A sealing lifting platform 52 is installed in the guide groove. A sealing lifting cylinder 53 is installed at the top of the sealing bracket 51 to drive the sealing lifting platform to move up and down. A rotating block 55 is installed at the end of the sealing lifting platform 52. A sealing rotary motor 54 is installed inside the sealing lifting platform 52 to drive the rotating block to rotate. Two connecting rods 56 are installed at the end of the rotating block 55. A sealing glue head 59 is installed on one connecting rod to seal the edge of the laminated glass. A guide block 57 is installed on the other connecting rod 56. The guide block 57 is located at the front end of the moving direction of the sealing glue head 59 to guide the glue application position of the sealing glue head.

[0035] Pressure blocks 58 are provided on both sides of the sealing head 59 to press the glass edge. A groove is formed between the two pressure blocks 58, and the sealing head 59 is placed in the groove. The height of the sealing head is higher than the height of the pressure blocks. During sealing, the sealing head can extend between the two glass pieces to apply sealant, forming a better sealing effect. A suction nozzle 510 is also provided between the two pressure blocks 58. The suction nozzle is parallel to the sealing head and is connected to an air pump to remove air between the two glass pieces. At the same time, the suction nozzle can also be connected to the air pump and the air filling pump through a T-connector to fill the glass with a specific gas after the air is removed to maintain the stability of the insulating glass performance. A suction nozzle cylinder 511 is provided on the connecting rod 56 to drive the suction nozzle to move up and down. The input end of the suction nozzle cylinder is connected to the output end of the PLC controller.

[0036] A sealing push cylinder 512 is provided on the side of the workbench 1. The end of the telescopic rod of the sealing push cylinder is connected to the sealing bracket 51 to drive the sealing bracket 51 to move back and forth.

[0037] The sealing head 59 is connected to the sealing tube 7 via the sealing tube 72. The sealing tube is equipped with a sealing pump 71, which is used to deliver the sealing adhesive from the sealing tube into the sealing head. The input terminals of the sealing pump, the sealing push cylinder, and the sealing lift cylinder are respectively connected to the output terminals of the PLC controller.

[0038] When the second conveyor belt 22 conveys the laminated glass to the sealing mechanism, the sealing push cylinder and the sealing lift cylinder work simultaneously to move the sealing head to the lateral side of the glass. The sealing rotary motor drives the turntable to rotate, so that the sealing head faces the edge of the glass. At the same time, the guide block is located at the front end of the sealing head's running direction. As the glass moves to the fourth conveyor belt, the lateral side of the glass is sealed with sealant. After the lateral side is sealed, the sealing rotary motor drives the turntable to rotate 90°, so that the guide block and the sealing head face the already sealed longitudinal side. The sealing lift cylinder drives the sealing head to move up and down to achieve sealing on the longitudinal side. During the sealing process, while applying sealant to another adjacent transverse side, the sealing rotary motor drives the rotating block to rotate 90°. The second and fourth conveyor belts drive the glass back for sealing. After sealing this side, the sealing rotary motor drives the rotating block to rotate 90° again. The sealing lifting cylinder drives the sealant head to move up and down to seal the last longitudinal side. After all sides are sealed, the suction nozzle cylinder drives the suction nozzle to move forward and insert it into the sealant to extract air. After extraction, the suction nozzle is pulled out. Since the sealant has not yet solidified, it will block the suction nozzle's exit hole as it is pulled out, thus sealing the laminated glass.

[0039] In the production of insulated glass, this invention involves conveying glass from a first conveyor belt to a second conveyor belt. During this conveying process, a glue-applying mechanism applies glue to the edges of the glass. After glue application, the glass is temporarily stored on the second conveyor belt. At this time, the position of the first conveyor belt is adjusted so that it aligns with the third conveyor belt. After the second piece of glass is conveyed from the first conveyor belt to the third conveyor belt, a joining mechanism pushes the glass from the third conveyor belt onto the second conveyor belt for joining. After joining, the glass is conveyed from the second conveyor belt to a fourth conveyor belt. During this conveying process, a sealing mechanism seals the edges of the joined glass. After sealing, air is extracted from the sealed glass, thus improving the sealing performance of the insulated glass.
