[0003] In the above process, key steps such as breaking, sorting, and transferring all rely on manual labor, which presents a significant efficiency bottleneck: on the one hand, the speed of manual operation is limited and it is difficult to adapt to the pace requirements of large-scale production; on the other hand, uneven force during manual breaking can easily lead to damage to the glass edges, and improper operation during sorting may also cause scratches on the glass surface, affecting the stability of product quality.
[0004] In addition, labor costs increase significantly with the expansion of production scale, and long-term repetitive operations can easily lead to fatigue, further reducing production efficiency and product qualification rate. Therefore, a new solution is urgently needed to address these issues. Utility Model Content

[0032] Example 1
[0033] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, Figure 1 This is a three-dimensional structural diagram of the material handling device; Figure 2 This is a split view of the material handling device. The material handling device includes a support member 1, a limiting member 2, and a material handling member 3. The support member 1 is used to support the product. The limiting member 2 is located on the upper part of the support member 1, which acts on the product and limits its movement. The material handling member 3 is located on the upper part of the limiting member 2, and passes through the limiting member 2 to handle the product.
[0034] Specifically, the product is an optical glass assembly 10 having multiple independent glass pieces 101, and one side of the optical glass assembly 10 has a protective film 20. The limiting member 2 acts on the optical glass assembly 10 to limit the optical glass assembly 10, and the picking member 3 removes the independent glass pieces 101 from the optical glass assembly 10.
[0035] Please refer to the following: Figure 3 and Figure 4 , Figure 3 This is a three-dimensional structural schematic diagram of the support component 1; Figure 4 for Figure 3 Enlarged view of section A. The support member 1 has a first support surface 11 and a second support surface 12. In the longitudinal direction, the second support surface 12 is located on the first support surface 11 and is distributed along the outer edge of the first support surface 11. In use, the optical glass assembly 10 is placed on the first support surface 11, and the limiting member 2 is placed on the second support surface 12. At the same time, the limiting member 2 abuts against the optical glass assembly 10 to fix the optical glass assembly 10. To enhance the fixing effect of the limiting member 2 on the optical glass assembly 10, the orthographic projection area of the limiting member 2 is larger than the orthographic projection area of the optical glass assembly 10.
[0036] Specifically, the limiting member 2 has multiple clearance holes 21, which correspond to the positions of multiple individual glass pieces 101. That is, each individual glass piece 101 has a clearance hole 21 on its upper part, and the material-retrieving member 3 removes the individual glass piece 101 through the clearance holes 21. In this embodiment, the multiple clearance holes 21 are arranged in an array along the length direction, and / or the multiple clearance holes 21 are arranged in an array along the width direction. Specifically, the limiting member 2 is made of a metal material, such as steel.
[0037] The material-collecting component 3 includes a support plate 31 and multiple suction heads 32. The support plate 31 is located above the limiting component 2, and the multiple suction heads 32 are spaced apart on the support plate 31. Each suction head 32 is connected to an external suction device, thereby enabling the suction head 32 to have suction force. In this embodiment, the multiple suction heads 32 correspond to multiple clearance holes 21, that is, the lower part of each suction head 32 corresponds to a clearance hole 21. In use, the suction head 32 passes through the clearance hole 21 and uses its own suction force to suck out the independent glass 101. In this embodiment, the multiple suction heads 32 are arranged in an array along the length direction and / or the multiple suction heads 32 are arranged in an array along the width direction.
[0038] It should also be noted that the support plate 31 is also connected to a drive device, which drives the support plate 31 to move, for example, using a cylinder device. Since the individual glass 101 needs to be placed in a designated position after being removed, a transmission device is also required. In use, the picking member 3 first moves towards the optical glass group 10. After the multiple suction heads 32 remove the multiple individual glass 101, the picking member 3 moves away from the optical glass group 10, and then transports the individual glass 101 on the suction head 32 to the designated position for installation.
[0039] Furthermore, the material handling device also includes a clamping member 4, which is located on one side of the carrier member 1. The clamping member 4 clamps the protective film 20 on the optical glass assembly 10. When the suction head 32 removes the independent glass 101, since the clamping member 4 has fixed the protective film 20, the independent glass 101 will also separate from the protective film 20 when it is removed.
[0040] In practical applications, the clamping member 4 includes a clamping drive body 41, a first clamping block 42, and a second clamping block 43. The clamping drive body 41 is located on one side of the carrier member 1. Both the first clamping block 42 and the second clamping block 43 are connected to the output end of the clamping drive body 41, and the first clamping block 42 and the second clamping block 43 are distributed opposite to each other. The clamping drive body 41 drives the first clamping block 42 and the second clamping block 43 to move towards or away from each other. In this embodiment, the clamping drive body 41 is a cylinder. In use, the clamping drive body 41 operates, driving the first clamping block 42 and the second clamping block 43 to move towards each other and clamp the protective film 20.
[0041] In summary, the optical glass assembly 10 is placed on the carrier 1, and the limiting member 2 is placed on the surface of the optical glass assembly 10. The multiple clearance holes 21 on the limiting member 2 correspond to the multiple independent glass 101 on the optical glass assembly 10. Finally, the suction head 32 on the picking member 3 passes through the clearance holes 21 to pick up the independent glass 101. In this way, no manual operation is required in the whole process, which can not only improve production efficiency, but also avoid damage to the glass, and ensure the quality and pass rate of the glass.
[0042] Example 2
[0043] The difference between this embodiment and embodiment one is that: multiple suction holes are provided on the first bearing surface 11 of the bearing member 1, and the multiple suction holes are distributed at intervals. Each suction hole is connected to an external suction device, so that the suction hole generates negative pressure. When the optical glass assembly 10 is placed on the first bearing surface 11, the multiple suction holes generate suction force on the protective film 20 on the optical glass assembly 10. When the material taking member 3 takes out the independent glass 101, the independent glass 101 separates from the protective film 20.
[0044] Of course, the addition of the suction hole structure will eliminate the need for clamping part 4, therefore, the structure of clamping part 4 is eliminated.
