Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of glass manufacturing and processing technology, specifically to a transfer device for glass manufacturing. Background Technology

[0002] In the glass manufacturing process, the transfer of glass products (especially flat glass and semi-finished glass) is a crucial step. Existing transfer devices mostly employ fixed brackets or simple trolley structures. These devices have the following problems: When transferring glass products via trolleys, each piece must first be transferred to the trolley, and then removed piece by piece after the transfer, consuming significant time and effort, hindering rapid transfer. While fixed brackets allow for the storage of large quantities of glass products, they are inconvenient during actual transfer, requiring the use of lifting or other equipment to move the brackets to the trolley before transferring the glass products. This method cannot combine brackets and trolleys, presenting certain defects and shortcomings, thus requiring improvement. Utility Model Content

[0003] (a) Technical problems to be solved

[0004] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides a transfer device for glass manufacturing. By detachably combining the loading module with the vehicle floor, the loading module can be quickly fixed on the vehicle floor during use. The loading module stores the glass, and the trolley transfers the glass products. The combination of the two greatly facilitates the transfer of glass products and solves the problem of inconvenience in the transfer of glass products in current devices.

[0005] (II) Technical Solution

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model specifically adopts the following technical solution:

[0007] A glass manufacturing transfer device includes a chassis plate with a cavity extending to the outside. A detachable loading module is installed in the cavity. The loading module consists of a base and a storage basket fixedly connected to the base for storing glass. A lifting module for driving the base to rise and fall is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the chassis plate. Two lifting modules are symmetrically fixed to the lower surface of the chassis plate. Each lifting module includes two guide rails fixedly connected to the lower surface of the chassis plate; sliding blocks slidably connected to the guide rails; and wedge blocks fixedly connected between the two sliding blocks. A wedge groove is provided on the side wall of the base. Both the wedge groove and one side of the wedge block have a wedge-shaped surface. When the wedge block moves, it extends into the wedge groove, thereby driving the base to rise.

[0008] Furthermore, an array of ball bearings is rotatably connected to the wedge-shaped surface on one side of the wedge block, and a notch is provided at the corner on one side of the wedge block.

[0009] Furthermore, a drive module for driving the wedge blocks to extend and retract is installed on the lower surface of the vehicle floor. The drive module includes a protective frame, which is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the vehicle floor; a limiting rod, which is fixedly connected to the inner side of the protective frame; two sliders, which are symmetrically sleeved on the limiting rod, and a connecting plate is fixedly connected between two adjacent wedge blocks. A drive plate is fixedly connected between the slider and the corresponding connecting plate.

[0010] Furthermore, the drive module also includes a bidirectional lead screw rotatably connected to the protective frame, two sliders symmetrically threaded onto the bidirectional lead screw, and a motor for driving the bidirectional lead screw to rotate is installed on one side of the protective frame.

[0011] Furthermore, the storage basket has equidistantly distributed storage slots, and handles are fixedly connected to both sides of the storage basket.

[0012] Furthermore, omnidirectional wheels are installed at the four corners of the lower surface of the vehicle floor, and a handrail is fixedly connected to one side of the vehicle floor.

[0013] (III) Beneficial Effects

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the present invention provides a transfer device for glass manufacturing, which has the following advantages:

[0015] 1. This utility model detachably assembles loading modules onto a vehicle floor. The loading modules are used for storing glass products, and the vehicle floor is used for transporting glass products. In use, glass products can be stored in batches on various loading modules. When transporting glass products through the vehicle floor, the corresponding loading modules can be quickly fixed to the vehicle floor, and then the loading modules can be transported and transferred through the vehicle floor, thus realizing the transfer and processing of glass products. This utility model combines the advantages of trolleys and loading modules (carriers), enabling rapid transfer and processing of glass products with high efficiency and convenience, and is suitable for practical use.

[0016] 2. This utility model, by installing a lifting module on the lower surface of the vehicle floor, consists of a guide rail, a sliding block, and a wedge block. The guide rail enables linear transmission and sliding support of the wedge block. The drive module can drive the wedge block to extend and retract, thereby closing the wedge block into the wedge groove of the base. Through the cooperation between the wedge block and the wedge groove, the base is driven to rise, so that the loading module is away from the ground and cooperates with the vehicle floor, realizing its rapid assembly on the vehicle floor. When it is necessary to remove the loading module (unloading glass products), the wedge block can be moved in the opposite direction, which is very convenient. Attached Figure Description

[0025] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0026] Example

[0027] like Figures 1-7 As shown in one embodiment of the present invention, a glass manufacturing transfer device includes a chassis 1. A cavity 3 extending to the outside is provided on the chassis 1, and a detachable loading module 2 is provided in the cavity 3. The loading module 2 consists of a base 201 and a storage basket 203 fixedly connected to the base 201 for storing glass. A lifting module 8 for driving the base 201 to rise and fall is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the chassis 1. Two sets of lifting modules 8 are provided and symmetrically fixed to the chassis. On the lower surface of 1, the lifting module 8 includes two guide rails 801, both of which are fixedly connected to the lower surface of the vehicle floor 1; a sliding block 802, which is slidably connected to the guide rails 801; and a wedge block 803, which is fixedly connected between the two sliding blocks 802. A wedge groove 202 is provided on the side wall of the base 201. A wedge surface 804 is provided on one side of both the wedge groove 202 and the wedge block 803. When the wedge block 803 moves, it can extend into the wedge groove 202, thereby driving the base 201 to rise.

[0028] It should be noted that the vehicle floor 1, as the basic load-bearing structure of the device, provides stable support for the entire transfer device. A cavity 3 extending to the outside is provided on the vehicle floor 1. The dimensions of this cavity 3 are adapted to the base 201 of the loading module 2. Its core function is to provide positioning and installation space for the loading module 2, ensuring that the loading module 2 can be accurately placed and stably fixed on the vehicle floor 1. A detachable loading module 2 is installed in the cavity 3 of the vehicle floor 1. The loading module 2 is the core component that directly supports the glass, consisting of a base 201 and a storage basket 203. The base 201 serves as the supporting foundation for the loading module 2, its bottom engaging with the cavity 3 of the vehicle floor 1. Wedge-shaped grooves 202 are provided on its side walls for engaging with the wedge blocks 803 of the lifting module 8 to achieve lifting and lowering. The storage basket 203 is fixedly connected to the base 201 and is specifically used to store glass, achieving safe storage of the glass through structural design. A lifting module 8 is provided on the lower surface of the vehicle floor 1. Its core function is to drive the base 201 to rise and fall, so as to realize the rapid assembly and separation of the loading module 2 and the vehicle floor 1. Each lifting module 8 includes two guide rails 801, a sliding block 802 and a wedge block 803: the two guide rails 801 are fixed parallel to the lower surface of the vehicle floor 1, providing linear guidance for the movement of the sliding block 802 and ensuring that the sliding block 802 slides stably along a fixed trajectory; the sliding block 802 is slidably connected to the guide rails 801 and is used to support and drive the wedge block 803 to move; the wedge block 803 is fixedly connected between the two sliding blocks 802, and one side of it and the wedge groove 202 of the base 201 are provided with a wedge surface 804. When the wedge block 803 moves and extends into the wedge groove 202, the horizontal thrust is converted into vertical lift through the inclined surface of the wedge surface 804, thereby driving the base 201 to rise.

[0029] like Figure 6 As shown, in some embodiments, an array of balls 806 are rotatably connected to the wedge surface 804 on one side of the wedge block 803, and a notch 805 is provided at the corner on one side of the wedge block 803.

[0030] It should be noted that the function of the ball bearing 806 is to reduce the frictional resistance between the wedge block 803 and the wedge groove 202 of the base 201: when the wedge surface 804 of the wedge block 803 contacts and slides relative to the wedge surface 804 of the wedge groove 202, the ball bearing 806 will roll with the contact surface, converting sliding friction into rolling friction, significantly reducing the coefficient of friction, making the lifting process of the base 201 smoother and less strenuous, while reducing component wear and extending the service life of the device; the notch 805 at the corner of the wedge block 803 is a guide structure: in the initial stage of docking between the wedge block 803 and the wedge groove 202, the notch 805 can accommodate the edge of the wedge groove 202, playing a positioning and guiding role, avoiding the wedge block 803 from getting stuck due to alignment deviation, ensuring that the wedge block 803 can be quickly and accurately embedded in the wedge groove 202, and improving operating efficiency.

[0031] like Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, in some embodiments, a drive module 6 for driving the wedge block 803 to extend and retract is installed on the lower surface of the vehicle floor 1. Its core function is to provide power for the movement of the wedge block 803 and realize automated lifting control. The drive module 6 includes a protective frame 601, which is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the vehicle floor 1; a limiting rod 602, which is fixedly connected to the inner side of the protective frame 601; two sliders 603, which are symmetrically sleeved on the limiting rod 602, and a connecting plate 9 is fixedly connected between two adjacent wedge blocks 803. A drive plate 7 is fixedly connected between the slider 603 and the corresponding connecting plate 9.

[0032] It should be noted that the limiting rod 602 is fixedly connected to the inner side of the protective frame 601, and its axis is parallel to the guide rail 801. It is used to limit the movement direction of the slider 603, ensuring that the slider 603 can only slide along a straight line, and avoid deviation affecting the power transmission accuracy. The two sliders 603 are symmetrically sleeved on the limiting rod 602, serving as the intermediate component for power transmission, converting the rotational motion of the bidirectional lead screw 605 into linear motion. A connecting plate 9 is fixedly connected between two adjacent wedge blocks 803, which is used to connect the wedge blocks 803 on both sides. A drive plate 7 is fixedly connected between the slider 603 and the corresponding connecting plate 9. Its function is to transmit the linear motion of the slider 603 to the connecting plate 9, thereby driving the wedge block 803 to move along the guide rail 801.

[0033] like Figure 5 As shown, in some embodiments, the drive module 6 further includes a bidirectional lead screw 605 rotatably connected to the protective frame 601, two sliders 603 symmetrically threadedly connected to the bidirectional lead screw 605, and a motor 604 for driving the bidirectional lead screw 605 to rotate is installed on one side of the protective frame 601.

[0034] It should be noted that the motor 604 is the power source for driving module 6. It provides driving force to the bidirectional lead screw 605 through the rotation of the output shaft. The rotation direction of the bidirectional lead screw 605 can be controlled by forward and reverse rotation. The bidirectional lead screw 605 is the core transmission component. The threads at both ends of the bidirectional lead screw 605 are opposite in direction. When the bidirectional lead screw 605 rotates, the two sliders 603 connected by symmetrical threads will move synchronously along the limit rod 602 in the direction of approaching or moving away from each other, realizing the extension and retraction of the wedge block 803. This threaded transmission structure has the characteristics of high transmission accuracy and good self-locking, which can ensure that the wedge block 803 can stay stably at any position and avoid accidental slippage during the lifting and lowering of the loading module 2.

[0035] like Figure 3 As shown, in some embodiments, the storage basket 203 has storage slots 204 that are evenly distributed, and handles 205 are fixedly connected to both sides of the storage basket 203.

[0036] It should be noted that the storage compartment 204 is a glass storage unit. Its number and spacing can be designed according to the glass specifications. Each storage compartment 204 independently separates the glass, which can effectively limit the shaking of the glass during transportation and avoid friction and collision between the glass, resulting in surface scratches or edge damage, thus ensuring the quality of the glass. The handles 205 on both sides of the storage basket 203 provide convenient gripping points for operators, making it easy to move the loading module 2 as a whole into the cavity 3 of the vehicle floor 1 or take it out of the cavity 3, reducing the intensity of manual handling and improving loading and unloading efficiency.

[0037] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, in some embodiments, casters 5 are installed at the four corners of the lower surface of the vehicle floor 1, and a handrail 4 is fixedly connected to one side of the vehicle floor 1.

[0038] It should be noted that the armrest 4 and casters 5 facilitate the movement of the device and the transfer of glass products.

[0039] The working principle and usage steps of this utility model are as follows: First, the staff places the glass pieces to be transported one by one into the storage slot 204 of the storage basket 203, ensuring that each piece of glass is stably embedded in the storage slot 204 to avoid loosening. Then, the base 201 is placed on the ground, and the vehicle floor 1 is pushed by the handrail 4, so that the base 201 closes into the cavity 3 of the vehicle floor 1, ensuring that the wedge-shaped grooves 202 on both sides of the base 201 correspond to the wedge-shaped blocks 803 on the lower surface of the vehicle floor 1. Then, the motor 604 is started (forward rotation), and the motor 604 drives the bidirectional lead screw 605 to rotate. The two sliders 603 move towards each other along the limiting rod 602. The sliders 603 push the connecting plate 9 through the drive plate 7, causing the wedge-shaped blocks 803 to move along the guide rail 801 towards the base 201. The wedge-shaped surface 804 of the wedge-shaped blocks 803 gradually embeds into the base 201. Within the wedge groove 202 of 01, as the wedge block 803 continues to move, the base 201 is gradually lifted until the loading module 2 is tightly engaged with the vehicle floor 1 (detached from the ground). The motor 604 is then turned off, completing the fixing process. During the transfer, the operator holds the handle 4 and pushes the device to move via the casters 5, transferring the glass to the target position along a preset path. Upon reaching the target position, the motor 604 is started (reverse rotation), the bidirectional lead screw 605 rotates in the opposite direction, and the sliders 603 move away from each other along the limit rod 602. The drive plate 7 and connecting plate 9 pull the wedge block 803 out of the wedge groove 202. The base 201 then falls into the cavity 3 and contacts the ground. The motor 604 is then turned off. When retrieving the material, the loading module 2 is removed from the cavity 3 via the handle 205, and then the glass is removed one by one from the storage slot 204, completing the entire transfer process.

[0040] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model and is not intended to limit the utility model. Although the utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
