Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of lens processing technology, and in particular to a plate-shaped workpiece handling device. Background Technology
[0002] In the processing of rectangular glass sheets, diamond tools are used to cut large pieces of glass into multiple smaller square glass pieces according to different uses and requirements. Existing glass cutting machines (such as the glass cutting machine disclosed in application number 201710129314.5) require manual placement of the glass sheet on the processing platform before cutting the rectangular glass sheet. Because the edges of the glass are relatively sharp, manual loading can easily result in workers' hands being cut by the glass. In addition, manual loading is inefficient and also increases labor costs. Utility Model Content

[0008] Furthermore, the material blocking mechanism includes a first baffle, a second baffle, and a first driving assembly. The first baffle and the second baffle are arranged sequentially from the outside to the inside and both slide through the side wall of the hopper. The first baffle corresponds to the outermost plate-shaped workpiece, and the second baffle corresponds to the next outermost plate-shaped workpiece. The inner side of the second baffle has a blade structure. The first driving assembly is connected to both the first baffle and the second baffle and is used to drive the first baffle and the second baffle to move horizontally in opposite directions synchronously, so that the first baffle and the second baffle alternately abut against or separate from the outer wall of the corresponding plate-shaped workpiece.

Detailed Implementation
[0023] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain this utility model and are not intended to limit this utility model.
[0024] This utility model provides a plate-shaped workpiece handling device, the structure of which is as follows: Figure 1 - Figure 3 As shown, the device includes a hopper 100, a blocking mechanism 200, and a picking mechanism 300. The hopper 100 has a top-opening material cavity 110 with a sloping bottom and an open sidewall at the lower end. The material cavity 110 is used to vertically place multiple plate-shaped workpieces side by side from the inside out. The blocking mechanism 200 is located at the opening on the sidewall of the material cavity 110 and is used to block the next outermost plate-shaped workpiece when the outermost plate-shaped workpiece is placed. The picking mechanism 300 is used to pick up and transport the outermost plate-shaped workpiece in the material cavity 110.
[0025] In use, by manipulating the material blocking mechanism 200, the outermost plate-shaped workpiece is blocked. The plate-shaped workpieces to be cut are then placed vertically side-by-side in the material cavity 110 from the inside out. The material blocking mechanism 200 prevents the outermost plate-shaped workpieces from falling out of the side opening of the material cavity 110. Then, by manipulating the material picking mechanism 300, the outermost plate-shaped workpiece in the material cavity 110 is picked up. When the material picking mechanism 300 picks up the outermost plate-shaped workpiece in the material cavity 110, the material blocking mechanism 200 is then manipulated again. The device allows the outermost plate-shaped workpiece to pass while blocking the next outermost plate-shaped workpiece. Then, by manipulating the material-picking mechanism 300, the plate-shaped workpiece can be horizontally placed on the processing table of the dicing machine. Simultaneously, the material-blocking mechanism 200 can be manipulated to block the outermost plate-shaped workpiece and allow the next outermost plate-shaped workpiece to pass. The next outermost plate-shaped workpiece slides down and reaches the position of the previously outermost plate-shaped workpiece. This plate-shaped workpiece picking device can horizontally place the glass plate on the processing platform of the dicing machine, avoiding the risk of workers' hands being cut by glass due to manual feeding, thus improving feeding efficiency and reducing labor costs.
[0026] As a preferred embodiment, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 4The material blocking mechanism 200 includes a first baffle 210, a second baffle 220, and a first driving assembly 230. The first baffle 210 and the second baffle 220 are arranged sequentially from the outside to the inside and both slide through the side wall of the hopper 100. The first baffle 210 corresponds to the outermost plate-shaped workpiece, and the second baffle 220 corresponds to the next outermost plate-shaped workpiece. The inner side of the second baffle 220 has a blade structure. The first driving assembly 230 is connected to both the first baffle 210 and the second baffle 220 and is used to drive the first baffle 210 and the second baffle 220 to move horizontally in opposite directions synchronously, so that the first baffle 210 and the second baffle 220 alternately abut against or separate from the outer wall of the corresponding plate-shaped workpiece. By manipulating the first drive component 230, the first drive component 230 can drive the first baffle 210 and the second baffle 220 to move horizontally in opposite directions synchronously. When the first baffle 210 blocks the outermost plate-shaped workpiece, the second baffle 220 allows the next outermost plate-shaped workpiece to pass through. When the first baffle 210 allows the outermost plate-shaped workpiece to pass through, the second baffle 220 blocks the next outermost plate-shaped workpiece. This prevents other plate-shaped workpieces in the material cavity 110 from falling out of the opening on the side of the material cavity 110 when the material picking mechanism 300 picks up the outermost plate-shaped workpiece in the material cavity 110. The inner side of the second baffle 220 has a blade structure, which makes it easy for the second baffle 220 to be inserted between the outermost plate-shaped workpiece and the next outermost plate-shaped workpiece.
[0027] As a preferred embodiment, please refer to Figure 1 The hopper 100 has a first through-hole and a second through-hole on its side wall, which communicate with the material cavity 110. The first baffle 210 slides through the first through-hole, and the second baffle 220 slides through the second through-hole, so that the first baffle 210 and the second baffle 220 can extend into the material cavity 110 along the corresponding first through-hole and second through-hole, thereby blocking the corresponding plate-shaped workpiece in the material cavity 110.

The ends of each second guide rod 233 near the second baffle 220 are fixedly connected to the outer side of the second baffle 220. The wheel frames of each first roller 234 are fixedly connected to the ends of each first guide rod 232 away from the first baffle 210. The wheel frames of each second roller 235 are fixedly connected to the ends of each second guide rod 233 away from the second baffle 220. Each first elastic element 236 is correspondingly sleeved on each first guide rod 232. The two ends of each first elastic element 236 are respectively connected to the first mounting bracket 231 and the wheel frames of the first rollers 234, so that the inner side of the first baffle 210... The second baffle 220 is located outside the material cavity 110. Each second elastic element 237 is correspondingly sleeved on each second guide rod 233. The two ends of each second elastic element 237 are connected to the wheel frame of the first mounting frame 231 and the second roller 235, respectively, so that the inner side of the second baffle 220 is located outside the material cavity 110. The push seat 238 is slidably connected to the first mounting frame 231. The side wall of the push seat 238 near the first roller 234 and the second roller 235 has an arched structure and abuts against the first roller 234 and the second roller 235. The fixed end of the first telescopic drive member 239 is fixedly connected to the first mounting frame 231. The telescopic movement of the first telescopic drive member 239... The end is connected to the push seat 238 and is used to drive the push seat 238 to reciprocate so that the arches of each arch structure alternately abut against the first roller 234 and the second roller 235. When the arch of the arch structure abuts against the first roller 234, the inner side of the first baffle 210 is located in the material cavity 110. When the arch of the arch structure abuts against the second roller 235, the inner side of the second baffle 220 is located in the material cavity 110. By operating the first telescopic drive member 239, the first telescopic drive member 239 can drive the push seat 238 to reciprocate so that the arches of each arch structure alternately abut against the first roller 234 and the second roller 235.When the arched structure's apex abuts against the first roller 234, the inner side of the first baffle 210 is located within the material cavity 110, blocking the outermost plate-shaped workpiece. At this time, the second roller 235 resets under the action of the second elastic element 237 and abuts against the bottom of the arched structure. The inner side of the second baffle 220 is located outside the material cavity 110, allowing the innermost plate-shaped workpiece to pass through. When the arched structure's apex abuts against the second roller 235, the inner side of the second baffle 220 is located within the material cavity 110, blocking the outermost plate-shaped workpiece. At this time, the first roller 234 resets under the action of the first elastic element 236 and abuts against the bottom of the arched structure. The inner side of the first baffle 210 is located outside the material cavity 110, allowing the innermost plate-shaped workpiece to pass through.
[0029] In a preferred embodiment, the first elastic element 236 and the second elastic element 237 are both springs. When subjected to pressure, they can accumulate compressive elastic potential energy. When the pressure disappears, they can release the compressive elastic potential energy and push the corresponding first roller 234 and second roller 235 to abut against the bottom of the arch structure again, so that the corresponding first baffle 210 and second baffle 220 are located outside the material cavity 110.
[0030] As a preferred embodiment, please refer to Figure 1 There are two material blocking mechanisms 200, which are respectively disposed on both sides of the opening of the side wall of the material cavity 110. The first through-hole and the second through-hole are provided on the two opposite side walls of the hopper 100, which can block the two sides of the plate-shaped workpiece and improve the blocking effect.
[0031] As a preferred embodiment, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2The material handling mechanism 300 includes a suction component 310 and a second driving component 320. The suction component 310 is used to tighten or loosen the sidewall of the plate-shaped workpiece. The second driving component 320 is connected to the suction component 310 and is used to drive the suction component 310 to reciprocate between a first position and a second position. When the suction component 310 is in the first position, it tightens the sidewall of the outermost plate-shaped workpiece in the material cavity 110. When the suction component 310 is in the second position, it tightens the sidewall of the outermost plate-shaped workpiece in the material cavity 110. The material assembly 310 places the plate-shaped workpiece horizontally on the processing table of the dicing machine. By operating the second drive assembly 320, the second drive assembly 320 can drive the suction assembly 310 to reciprocate between a first position and a second position. When the suction assembly 310 is in the first position, the suction assembly 310 can suck up the side wall of the outermost plate-shaped workpiece in the material cavity 110. When the suction assembly 310 is in the second position, the suction assembly 310 places the plate-shaped workpiece horizontally on the processing table of the dicing machine.
[0032] As a preferred embodiment, please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 The suction assembly 310 includes a mounting base 311, multiple suction cups 312, and a vacuum pump. Each suction cup 312 is fixedly connected to the mounting base 311, and the vacuum pump is connected to each suction cup 312 to extract air from each suction cup 312, so that each suction cup 312 can firmly adhere to the side wall of the plate-shaped workpiece. When it is necessary to pick up the plate-shaped workpiece, the vacuum pump is turned on, which can extract air from each suction cup 312, so that each suction cup 312 is in a negative pressure state. Under the action of atmospheric pressure, each suction cup 312 can be firmly adsorbed onto the plate-shaped workpiece. When it is necessary to put down the plate-shaped workpiece, the vacuum pump is turned off, and outside air enters into each suction cup 312, so that the air pressure inside and outside each suction cup 312 is equal, and each suction cup 312 separates from the plate-shaped workpiece.
[0033] As a preferred embodiment, please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3The second drive assembly 320 includes a second mounting bracket 321, a rotating bracket 322, a first rotating shaft 323, a second rotating shaft 324, a guide sleeve 325, a transmission rod 326, and a second telescopic drive component 327.

The first rotating shaft 323 is also fixedly connected to the mounting base 311. The second rotating shaft 324 is horizontally positioned and parallel to the first rotating shaft 323. One end of the second rotating shaft 324 is rotatably connected to the second mounting bracket 321. The guide sleeve 325 is fixedly connected to the other end of the second rotating shaft 324. The transmission rod 326 slides through the guide sleeve 325 and is perpendicular to the first rotating shaft 323. The end of the transmission rod 326 near the rotating bracket 322 is connected to the second mounting bracket 321. A rotating shaft 323 is fixedly connected to the end of a rotating shaft 323. The fixed end of the second telescopic drive member 327 is rotatably connected to the second mounting bracket 321. The output end of the second telescopic drive member 327 is rotatably connected to the middle of the rotating frame 322. This drives the rotating frame 322 to reciprocate around its axis of rotation in a vertical plane, moving closer to or away from the hopper 100. By manipulating the second telescopic drive member 327, the second telescopic drive member 327 can drive the rotating frame 322 around its axis of rotation in a vertical plane. The rotating frame 322 reciprocates around its axis of rotation in the vertical plane, moving closer to or away from the hopper 100. During this process, the guide sleeve 325 rotates, driving the transmission rod 326 to rotate. Simultaneously, the transmission rod 326 slides along the guide sleeve 325, causing the mounting base 311 of the suction assembly 310 to flip, allowing each suction cup 312 of the suction assembly 310 to face to the side and downward.
[0034] As a preferred embodiment, please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3The rotating frame 322 includes a mounting shaft 3221, two side rods 3222, and a connecting shaft 3223. The mounting shaft 3221 is horizontally positioned below the hopper 100 and parallel to the first rotating shaft 323. Both ends of the mounting shaft 3221 are fixedly connected to the second mounting frame 321. The two side rods 3222 are respectively positioned opposite each other on both sides of the hopper 100. One end of each side rod 3222 is fixedly sleeved on the mounting shaft 3221, and the other ends of each side rod 3222 are rotatable. The connecting shaft 3223 is sleeved on the first rotating shaft 323 and is horizontally arranged on the two side rods 3222, and is parallel to the mounting shaft 3221. The two ends of the connecting shaft 3223 are respectively fixedly connected to the corresponding side rods 3222. The output end of the second telescopic drive member 327 is rotatably connected to the connecting shaft 3223. The structure of the rotating frame 322 facilitates the material suction assembly 310 to pass between the two side plates when suctioning the plate-shaped workpiece, and also improves the stability of the rotating frame 322.
[0035] To better understand this utility model, the following is combined with... Figure 1 - Figure 4 The working principle of the technical solution of this utility model will be described in detail below:
[0036] In use, by manipulating the first telescopic drive member 239, the first telescopic drive member 239 can drive the push seat 238 to move rearward, so that the arch tops of each of the arched structures abut against the first roller 234. Since the inner side of the first baffle 210 is located within the material cavity 110 when the arch tops of the arched structures abut against the first roller 234, blocking the outermost plate-shaped workpiece, the second roller 235 is reset under the action of the second elastic member 237 and abuts against the bottom of the arched structure. The inner side of the second baffle 220 is located outside the material cavity 110. Then, the plate-shaped workpieces to be cut are placed vertically side-by-side in the material cavity 110 from the inside out. The inner side of the first baffle 210 can block the outermost plate-shaped workpiece, preventing the plate-shaped workpiece in the material cavity 110 from falling out of the side opening of the material cavity 110. Then, by operating the second telescopic drive member 327, the second telescopic drive member 327 can drive the rotating frame 322 to rotate around its rotation axis in the vertical plane close to the hopper 100. The guide sleeve 325 will rotate, driving the transmission rod 326 to rotate. At the same time, the transmission rod 326 also slides along the guide sleeve 325, thereby causing the mounting base 311 of the suction assembly 310 to flip, so that each of the suction cups 312 of the suction assembly 310 can face to the side and abut against the side wall of the outermost plate-shaped workpiece. The vacuum pump is turned on. The vacuum pump can extract air from each of the suction cups 312, creating a negative pressure state within each suction cup 312. Under atmospheric pressure, each suction cup 312 can be firmly adsorbed onto the plate-shaped workpiece. Then, by manipulating the first telescopic drive member 239, the first telescopic drive member 239 can drive the push seat 238 forward, causing the arched tops of each arched structure to abut against the second roller 235. When the arched tops of the arched structures abut against the second roller 235, the inner side of the second baffle 220 is located within the material cavity 110, blocking the plate-shaped workpiece on the outermost side. At this time, the first roller 234, under the action of the first elastic member 236... The first baffle 210 is reset and abuts against the bottom of the arched structure. The inner side of the first baffle 210 is located outside the material cavity 110. The innermost plate-shaped workpiece is placed on the inner side of the first baffle 210. Then, by operating the second telescopic drive 327, the second telescopic drive 327 can drive the rotating frame 322 to rotate around its rotation axis in the vertical plane away from the hopper 100. The guide sleeve 325 will rotate and drive the transmission rod 326 to rotate. At the same time, the transmission rod 326 also slides along the guide sleeve 325, thereby causing the mounting base 311 of the suction assembly 310 to flip, so that each of the suction cups 312 of the suction assembly 310 can face downwards, and the plate-shaped workpiece is located on the processing table of the dicing machine.The vacuum pump is turned off, and outside air enters each of the suction cups 312, making the air pressure inside and outside each suction cup 312 equal. Each suction cup 312 separates from the plate-shaped workpiece. Simultaneously, by manipulating the first telescopic drive member 239, the first telescopic drive member 239 can drive the push seat 238 to move rearward, causing the arched tops of each arched structure to abut against the first roller 234. The inner side of the first baffle 210 is located within the material cavity 110, blocking the outermost plate-shaped workpiece. At this time, the... The second roller 235 is reset under the action of the second elastic element 237 and abuts against the bottom of the arched structure. The inner side of the second baffle 220 is located outside the material cavity 110. The inner side of the second baffle 220 releases the second outermost plate-shaped workpiece. The second outermost plate-shaped workpiece slides down and reaches the position of the previously outermost plate-shaped workpiece. This plate-shaped workpiece picking device can place the glass plate horizontally on the processing platform of the dicing machine, avoiding the situation of glass cutting workers' hands due to manual feeding, improving feeding efficiency and reducing labor costs.
[0037] The plate-shaped workpiece handling device provided by this utility model has the following beneficial effects:
[0038] (1) The inner side of the second baffle 220 is a blade structure to facilitate the insertion of the second baffle 220 between the outermost plate-shaped workpiece and the second outermost plate-shaped workpiece.
[0039] (2) When the first baffle 210 blocks the outermost plate-shaped workpiece, the second baffle 220 allows the next outermost plate-shaped workpiece to pass through. When the first baffle 210 allows the outermost plate-shaped workpiece to pass through, the second baffle 220 blocks the next outermost plate-shaped workpiece. This prevents other plate-shaped workpieces in the material cavity 110 from falling out of the opening on the side of the material cavity 110 when the material picking mechanism 300 picks up the outermost plate-shaped workpiece in the material cavity 110.
[0040] (3) This plate-shaped workpiece feeding device can place the glass plate horizontally on the processing platform of the dicing machine, avoiding the situation where the glass cuts the workers' hands due to the manual feeding method, thus improving the feeding efficiency and reducing labor costs.
[0041] The specific embodiments of this utility model described above do not constitute a limitation on the scope of protection of this utility model. Any other corresponding changes and modifications made based on the technical concept of this utility model should be included within the scope of protection of the claims of this utility model.
