[0019] The slider is slidably mounted on the guide rail, and the movable seat is connected to the slider.

[0020] Furthermore, the clamping mechanism includes:

[0021] The base is connected to the drive module for transmission.

[0022] The first gripper is disposed on the base;

[0023] The second gripper; and,

They are only for the convenience of describing this application 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 application.

[0042] Furthermore, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of technical features indicated. Thus, a feature defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of that feature. In the description of this application, "multiple" means two or more, unless otherwise explicitly specified.

[0043] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 2 The waste material removal device provided in this application embodiment will now be described. The waste material removal device provided in this application embodiment can be used for removing waste material from products such as display panels or glass. The waste material removal device provided in this application embodiment includes a platform 10, a clamping mechanism 20, and a drive module 30. The clamping mechanism 20 is disposed on one side of the platform 10 in the horizontal direction. The drive module 30 is driveably connected to the clamping mechanism 20, and the drive module 30 drives the clamping mechanism 20 to move horizontally towards the platform 10 to clamp the waste material, or to move horizontally away from the platform 10 to remove the waste material from the platform 10.

[0044] When it is necessary to clamp residual material, the drive module 30 first drives the clamping mechanism 20 to approach the platform 10 in the horizontal direction. Then, the clamping mechanism 20 clamps the residual material on the platform 10. After the clamping mechanism 20 clamps the residual material on the platform 10, the drive module 30 drives the clamping mechanism 20 to move away from the platform 10 in the horizontal direction, thereby removing the residual material from the platform 10. When the residual materials are of different sizes, the clamping of residual materials of different sizes can be achieved by controlling the distance of movement of the clamping mechanism 20 through the drive module 30.

[0045] The residue removal device provided in this application embodiment has a clamping mechanism 20 installed on one side of the platform 10 along the horizontal direction. The drive module 30 is connected to the clamping mechanism 20. When it is necessary to remove residue from the platform 10, the drive module 30 first drives the clamping mechanism 20 to approach the platform 10 in the horizontal direction, so that the clamping mechanism 20 can clamp the residue on the platform 10. After the clamping mechanism 20 clamps the residue on the platform 10, the drive module 30 drives the clamping mechanism 20 to move away from the platform 10 in the horizontal direction, thereby removing the residue from the platform 10. Compared with the related technology that uses adsorption to remove residue, the residue removal device of this application embodiment can remove residue more safely and efficiently, and improves the stability of residue removal. Moreover, when the size of the residue on the platform 10 is inconsistent, the drive module 30 can control the distance of movement of the clamping mechanism 20, thus making it applicable to the removal of residue of different sizes and having higher compatibility.

[0046] Please see Figure 2 and Figure 3 The platform 10 may have a clearance groove 11 on the side facing the clamping mechanism 20, into which the clamping mechanism 20 can extend. The clearance groove 11 prevents the clamping mechanism 20 from contacting the platform 10, thus improving clamping stability. Especially when clamping small pieces of scrap material, the clearance groove 11 allows the clamping mechanism 20 to avoid contact with the platform 10, preventing the risk of it hitting the platform 10.

[0047] Please see Figure 3 The stage 10 may have a cutting channel 12. This cutting channel 12 is used to cut the product during cutting, allowing the laser to separate the residue from the product. The clearance groove 11 may include a first groove 111 and a second groove 112. The first groove 111 is located outside the cutting channel 12 and communicates with it, while the second groove 112 is located inside the cutting channel 12 and communicates with it. That is, the first groove 111 and the second groove 112 are connected through the cutting channel 12. When the residue is located near the cutting channel 12, the first groove 111 and the second groove 112 prevent the clamping mechanism 20 from hitting the stage 10.

[0048] Please see Figure 3 and Figure 4 The platform 10 may have a cutting channel 12 and a dust collection chamber (not shown in the figure) connected to the cutting channel 12. The bottom of the platform 10 has an adsorption port 13, one end of which is connected to the dust collection chamber and the other end is connected to an external negative pressure device. Small particles of residual material can fall into the dust collection chamber through the cutting channel 12 and be sucked away through the adsorption port 13, thereby preventing the residual material particles from polluting the environment.

[0049] Please see Figure 2 The drive module 30 may include a mounting base 31, a movable base 32, and a drive mechanism 33. The movable base 32 is mounted on the mounting base 31, and the clamping mechanism 20 is mounted on the movable base 32. The drive mechanism 33 is drively connected to the movable base 32, and drives the movable base 32 to move horizontally closer to or away from the platform 10 relative to the mounting base 31. Driven by the drive mechanism 33, the movable base 32 can move horizontally closer to or away from the platform 10 relative to the mounting base 31, thereby enabling the clamping mechanism 20 to move horizontally closer to or away from the platform 10, achieving the clamping of the scrap material. Specifically, the drive mechanism 33 can be a cylinder or a linear motor, or a rotary motor, and can be equipped with a transmission mechanism that converts the rotational driving force of the rotary motor into the linear motion of the movable base 32, such as a gear rack or a lead screw and nut.

[0050] Please see Figure 2 The drive module 30 may also include a guide rail and a slider. The guide rail is mounted on the mounting base 31. The slider is slidably mounted on the guide rail, and the movable base 32 is connected to the slider. The cooperation between the guide rail and the slider can improve the accuracy of the movement of the movable base 32.

[0051] Please see Figure 5 The clamping mechanism 20 may include a base 21, a first gripper 22, a second gripper 23, and a drive member 24. The base 21 is driveably connected to the drive module 30. The first gripper 22 is disposed on the base 21. The drive member 24 is driveably connected to the second gripper 23, driving the second gripper 23 to move along a direction close to the first gripper 22 to clamp the residual material. When it is necessary to clamp the residual material, the drive member 24 drives the second gripper 23 to move along a direction close to the first gripper 22, thereby clamping the residual material. When it is necessary to release the residual material, the drive member 24 drives the second gripper 23 to move along a direction away from the first gripper 22, thereby releasing the residual material. Of course, the arrangement of the clamping mechanism 20 is not limited to this. For example, the clamping mechanism 20 may also use the drive member 24 to simultaneously drive the first gripper 22 and the second gripper 23 to clamp the residual material along a direction close to each other, that is, both the first gripper 22 and the second gripper 23 are configured to be movable. Specifically, the drive component 24 can be a motor or a cylinder.

[0052] Please see Figure 5 The clamping mechanism 20 may further include a movable member 25, which is connected to the driving member 24. The driving member 24 drives the movable member 25 to move closer to or away from the platform 10 in a horizontal direction relative to the base 21. The middle position of the second gripper 23 is rotatably connected to the base 21. One end of the second gripper 23 is rotatably connected to the movable member 25, and the other end cooperates with the first gripper 22 to clamp the residual material. When the driving member 24 drives the movable member 25 to move closer to the platform 10 in a horizontal direction relative to the base 21, the second gripper 23 flips in the direction closer to the first gripper 22, thus clamping the residual material. When the driving member 24 drives the movable member 25 to move away from the platform 10 in a horizontal direction relative to the base 21, the second gripper 23 flips in the direction away from the first gripper 22, thus releasing the residual material. It is understandable that the second gripper 23 is not limited to this configuration. For example, the second gripper 23 can also be configured to be driven by the drive member 24 to perform linear motion, thereby moving closer to or further away from the first gripper 22, which can also achieve the clamping or releasing of the scrap material.

[0053] Please see Figure 5 The clamping mechanism 20 may further include a first rotating shaft 26 and a second rotating shaft 27. The first rotating shaft 26 is disposed on the base 21, and the second gripper 23 is rotatably mounted on the first rotating shaft 26. The second rotating shaft 27 is disposed on the movable member 25, and one end of the second gripper 23 is rotatably mounted on the second rotating shaft 27. Through the arrangement of the first rotating shaft 26 and the second rotating shaft 27, the second gripper 23 can be flipped, allowing it to rotate around the first rotating shaft 26 under the drive of the movable member 25.

[0054] Please see Figure 2 and Figure 5 The first gripper 22 and the second gripper 23 may include at least two, with each first gripper 22 cooperating with a second gripper 23 to grip the scrap material. By setting at least two first grippers 22 and second grippers 23, the scrap material can be gripped simultaneously, improving the stability and flexibility of gripping, and enabling the gripping of scrap materials of different shapes and sizes.

[0055] Please see Figure 1 The platform 10 may include at least two, and correspondingly, the clamping mechanism 20 may include at least two, with one platform 10 corresponding to one clamping mechanism 20. By setting multiple platforms 10 and clamping mechanisms 20, the removal of residual material from multiple products can be achieved simultaneously, improving processing efficiency.

[0056] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this application and is not intended to limit this application. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, and improvements made within the spirit and principles of this application should be included within the protection scope of this application.
