[0038] The conveying structure 1 includes a first support body 4, and the main roller 2 is rotatably connected to the first support body 4. The first support body 4 is a support rod.

[0039] The main roller 2 is connected to a transmission bearing rod 5, which is rotatably connected to the first support body 4 of the conveying structure 1.

[0040] Multiple bearing fixing components are connected to the first support body 4, and the bearing fixing components are clearance-fitted with the transmission bearing rod 5.

[0041] The first rolling structure further includes a synchronous rolling structure connected to the rolling drive structure. Each synchronous rolling structure is connected to one of the main rollers 2. Under the drive of the rolling drive structure, the synchronous rolling structure synchronizes the rolling of the multiple main rollers 2.

[0042] The synchronous rolling structure includes multiple transmission gears 6 and multiple transmission chains 7. The multiple transmission gears 6 are connected to the main roller 2 one by one, and the two ends of the transmission chain 7 are engaged with two adjacent transmission gears 6. Each of the multiple transmission gears 6 is engaged with at least one transmission chain 7.

[0043] The transmission gear 6 is connected to the transmission bearing rod 5.

[0044] The rolling drive structure includes a drive motor 8, which is connected to one of the multiple transmission chains 7 (as illustrated in the figure); or the drive motor 8 is connected to a drive chain, which meshes with one of the multiple transmission gears 6.

[0045] The drive motor 8 is connected to a drive gear 9, which meshes with one of the multiple transmission chains 7 or the drive chain.

[0046] The transmission gear 6 is a double-row sprocket.

[0047] The second rolling structure includes a plurality of auxiliary rollers 10 rotatably connected to the conveying structure 1.

[0048] The conveying structure 1 includes a second support body 11, and the auxiliary roller 10 is rotatably connected to the second support body 11.

[0049] The conveying structure 1 includes a fixed bracket 12, which is connected to the first support body 4 and the second support body 11.

[0050] The first supports 4 of multiple conveying structures 1 are aligned; or the first supports 4 of adjacent conveying structures 1 are connected to each other.

[0051] A third support 13 is connected between the first support bodies 4 of two adjacent conveying structures 1, and a third roller 14 is rotatably connected to the third support body 13.

[0052] A fourth support 15 is connected between the second support bodies 11 of two adjacent conveying structures 1, and a fourth roller 16 is rotatably connected to the fourth support body 15.

[0053] The first rolling structure is located at the bottom edge of the glass to be transported.

[0054] Method 1:

[0055] 1. Place the glass on the first-stage conveying structure 1;

[0056] 2. Start the first and second stage conveyor structures 1;

[0057] 3. The third-stage conveying structure 1 is activated when the glass is about to leave the second-stage conveying structure 1;

[0058] 4. The first-stage conveying structure 1 stops after the glass leaves the first-stage conveying structure 1;

[0059] 5. When the glass is about to leave the third-stage conveying structure 1, the fourth-stage conveying structure 1 is activated;

[0060] 6. The second-stage conveying structure 1 stops after the glass leaves the second-stage conveying structure 1;

[0061] After the glass is removed from the Nth-level conveyor structure 1, both the Nth-level conveyor structure 1 and the (N-1)th-level conveyor structure 1 will start. When the glass reaches the Nth-level conveyor structure 1, the Nth-level conveyor structure 1 will stop.

[0062] If the N-2 level conveyor structure 1 has glass, while the N-1 level conveyor structure 1 does not, the N-1 level conveyor structure 1 and the N-2 level conveyor structure 1 will start simultaneously. When the glass of the N-2 level conveyor structure 1 is about to leave the N-1 level conveyor structure 1, the N-1 level conveyor structure 1 will stop.

[0063] If there is glass in the N-3 level conveyor structure 1 at this time, the N-3 level conveyor structure 1 will be activated to convey the glass to the N-2 level conveyor structure 1. When the glass originally in the N-3 level conveyor structure 1 is conveyed to the N-2 level conveyor structure 1 which is about to leave the N-2 level conveyor structure 1, the N-2 level conveyor structure 1 will stop.

[0064] In this way, the glass is conveyed sequentially to the desired location.

[0065] Method 2:

[0066] 1. When the first piece of glass is placed on the first-stage conveyor structure, after a few seconds, the first and second-stage conveyor structures will start, transporting the glass towards the Nth-stage conveyor structure. When the first piece of glass enters the second-stage conveyor structure, the third-stage conveyor structure starts, then the first-stage conveyor structure stops, and the first piece of glass continues to be transported towards the Nth-stage conveyor structure.

[0067] At this point, both the second-stage and third-stage conveying structures are in the process of conveying glass.

[0068] 2. When the first piece of glass leaves the second-stage conveying structure and enters the third-stage conveying structure, the fourth-stage conveying structure starts, the second-stage conveying structure stops, and the first piece of glass continues to be conveyed towards the Nth-stage conveying structure.

[0069] At this point, the third and fourth level conveying structures are conveying the glass.

[0070] 3. When the glass enters the fourth-level conveying structure, the fifth-level conveying structure is activated, and the first piece of glass continues to be conveyed towards the Nth-level conveying structure;

[0071] If, at this point, the first-level conveying structure places the second piece of glass to be conveyed, then activating the first-level and second-level conveying structures will convey the second piece of glass again, and so on until the (N-1)th-level conveying structure.

[0072] The first piece of glass will be transported to the Nth stage of the transport structure.

[0073] When the third piece of glass is placed, it will be transported to the N-2 level conveying structure in the same way as the first piece of glass.

[0074] All the glass placed on the first-level conveyor structure will be conveyed in this way until all the conveyor structures are filled with glass.

[0075] During the period when the glass is fully occupied and not fully occupied on the conveyor structure, the existing glass on the conveyor can be transported to the Nth level conveyor structure using method one.

[0076] All of the above operations can be performed manually.

[0077] Example 2:

[0078] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, Embodiment 2 has all the features of Embodiment 1, except that:

[0079] Main roller 2 tilt setting.

[0080] The second support 11 is a fixed bracket 12 plate. The fixed bracket 12 plate is inclined. Combined with the inclined main roller 2, it enables the glass to be transported in an inclined state.

[0081] The second rolling structure is located on the side wall of the glass to be transported.

[0082] The axial direction of the auxiliary roller 10 is parallel to the plane of the fixed bracket 12 plate.

[0083] In this way, the glass to be transported can be conveyed at an angle. Its bottom edge and side walls are all supported by rolling.

[0084] Example 3:

[0085] like Figures 6 to 9 As shown, Embodiment 3 has all the features of Embodiment 1, except that:

[0086] The second support 11 is a fixed bracket 12 rod.

[0087] The second rolling structure is located at the top edge of the glass to be transported.

[0088] The bottom and top edges of the glass are provided with rolling support. At this point, the distance between the main roller 2 and the auxiliary roller 10 must be equal to the height of the glass. This allows either the first rolling structure or the second conveying structure to move up and down, accommodating the transport of glass at different heights.

[0089] The conveying structure 1 is equipped with a lifting structure, and the second rolling structure is located on the lifting structure. The lifting structure consists of two lifting cylinders 17, which are respectively placed on the left and right sides of the fixed bracket 12. The left and right ends of the fixed bracket 12 are connected to the lifting cylinders 17.

[0090] The auxiliary roller 10 is provided with one or more limit blocks 3, and the limit blocks 3 are connected to the front or rear side of the auxiliary roller 10.

[0091] The auxiliary roller 10 is a glass-supported plastic roller.

[0092] The embodiments described above merely illustrate specific implementations of this utility model, and while the descriptions are detailed, they should not be construed as limiting the scope of this utility model patent. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the concept of this utility model, and these modifications and improvements all fall within the protection scope of this utility model.
