Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of glass substrate processing equipment, specifically a limiting pulley device for swinging across the glass flow direction. Background Technology

[0002] The overflow pull-down method is one of the main methods for producing flat glass. It utilizes a continuous flow of molten glass overflowing from both sides of a refractory chute and converging at the lower tip of the chute to form a glass sheet, which is then pulled by a traction mechanism to form the final glass sheet. Because the glass surface does not come into contact with any other material, this method can produce thin glass sheets with good surface smoothness and flatness, requiring no grinding or polishing, and with uniform thickness.

[0003] During normal production, glass sheets are formed from the tips of overflow bricks into a single sheet. This sheet is then pulled downwards by the edge-pulling machine to form a complete glass sheet. It is then held by traction rollers and undergoes annealing and other processes to become the finished glass product. Simultaneously, the production process typically utilizes a combination of a cross-cutting robot, a cross-cutting machine, a vertically moving lead screw, anvil strips, and a cutter head and holder to cut the glass. After the cross-cutting, the glass is broken apart by a breaking robot. However, the glass sheet wobbles significantly at the cutting line, potentially causing workers to get stuck on the anvil strips. Furthermore, when the cross-cutting machine moves upwards, it can push the sheet upwards, causing breakage and material blockage, posing a significant risk. Utility Model Content

[0021] It is readily understood that, based on the technical solution of this utility model, those skilled in the art can propose various interchangeable structural methods and implementations without altering the essential spirit of this utility model. Therefore, the following detailed embodiments and accompanying drawings are merely illustrative descriptions of the technical solution of this utility model and should not be considered as the entirety of this utility model or as limitations or restrictions on the technical solution of this utility model.

[0022] A limiting pulley device that swings across the glass flow direction, such as Figure 1 As shown, it includes a fixing base 2, to which a cutting board strip 3 is detachably connected. The fixing base 2 is used to fix and install the cutting board strip 3. Specifically, a groove is opened at the center of the side of the fixing base 2, and the cutting board strip 3 is inserted into the groove. A reserved groove 22 is opened at the side edge of the fixing base 2. Specifically, multiple reserved grooves 22 are equidistantly opened at the top and bottom of the side of the fixing base 2, and the reserved grooves 22 cooperate to connect a locking assembly 4. The locking assembly 4 cooperates to connect the cutting board strip 3. For example, as shown... Figure 2 As shown, the locking assembly 4 includes an operating ring 41, a locking block 42, and a rotating rod 43; the rotating rod 43 is rotatably connected to the fixed base 2, and a plurality of locking blocks 42 are fixed on the side of the rotating rod 43; the locking blocks 42 are connected to the reserved groove 22, and the operating ring 41 is fixed at the end of the rotating rod 43.

[0023] In order to achieve stable fixation of the cutting board strip 3, the locking block 42 adopts a cam structure, and a rubber sheet is provided at the edge of the locking block 42.

[0024] When locking and fixing the cutting board strip 3, insert the cutting board strip 3 into the groove at the center of the side of the fixing seat 2; then rotate the rotating rod 43 in the operating ring 41. When the rotating rod 43 rotates, it drives the locking block 42 to rotate. The locking block 42 rotates until the cam part of the locking block 42 abuts against the inserted cutting board strip 3, thereby locking and fixing the cutting board strip 3.

[0025] The top of the fixed base 2 has a sliding groove 21, and the sliding groove 21 is slidably connected to one or more limiting components 5; the limiting component 5 includes a limiting plate 51, a pulley 52 and a slider 53; the slider 53 is slidably connected to the sliding groove 21, and the top of the slider 53 is fixed to the limiting plate 51; one or more pulleys 52 are installed on the side of the limiting plate 51, and the pulleys 52 are used to limit the glass that is swinging in the flow direction.

[0026] For example, the limiting component 5 is provided in two sets, and the two sets of limiting components 5 are connected by an adjusting component 6; the adjusting component 6 is disposed inside the fixed base 2; the adjusting component 6 is used to adjust the distance between the two limiting components 5; for example, as Figure 3 As shown, the adjustment assembly 6 includes a sprocket 61, a first fixing plate 62, a first connecting plate 63, a chain 64, a second fixing plate 65, and a second connecting plate 66; two sprockets 61 are installed in the fixing base 2, and the two sprockets 61 are connected by a chain 64; a first fixing plate 62 is fixed to one side surface of the chain 64, and the first fixing plate 62 is connected to one of the limiting assemblies 5 through a first connecting plate 63; a second fixing plate 65 is fixed to the other side surface of the chain 64, and the second fixing plate 65 is connected to the other limiting assembly 5 through a second connecting plate 66.

[0027] When conveying glass of different widths, the distance between the two limiting components 5 can be adjusted by adjusting component 6. During adjustment, one of the limiting components 5 is moved, which drives the chain 64 to move and the sprocket 61 to rotate, thereby moving the other limiting component 5 away from or closer to it; thus achieving the adjustment of the distance between the two limiting components 5.

[0028] The mounting bracket 1 is fixed to the side of the fixed base 2, and the mounting bracket 1 adopts an inverted "L" shape structure; mounting holes are opened on the surface of the mounting bracket 1; the entire device of the cutting board strip can be installed through the mounting holes.

[0029] In use, the following steps are performed: First, the cutting board strip 3 is installed by inserting it into the groove at the center of the side of the fixing base 2. Then, the rotating rod 43 is rotated by the operating ring 41. The rotation of the rotating rod 43 causes the locking block 42 to rotate until its cam portion abuts against the inserted cutting board strip 3, thus locking and fixing the cutting board strip 3. Next, the distance between the two limiting components 5 is adjusted according to the width of the glass to be cut. During adjustment, one limiting component 5 is moved, causing the chain 64 to move and the sprocket 61 to rotate, which in turn moves the other limiting component 5 closer or further apart, thus adjusting the distance between the two limiting components 5. The state during glass cutting is as follows: Figure 4 As shown.

[0030] This invention adds a limiting component above the moving anvil strip of the cross-cutting machine to restrict the swaying of the glass plate as the machine moves. This invention improves upon existing cross-cutting machine cutting mechanisms by adding a limiting component. During normal production, after the glass plate is cut and broken by the breaking robot, it sways significantly at the cutting line, easily getting stuck on the anvil strips. When the cross-cutting machine moves upward, it may push the plate upward, causing breakage and material blockage, posing a significant risk. This device effectively limits the swaying amplitude of the glass plate, reducing this risk; preventing plate jamming and pushing, reducing production risks, and preventing breakage and material blockage.
