Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of glass production technology, specifically to a glass feeding device. Background Technology

[0002] Glass substrate feeding equipment, through its automated, precise, and safe design, solves the problems of low efficiency, high risk, and poor precision of traditional manual feeding, and is one of the core equipment for realizing intelligent and large-scale production in the modern glass industry.

[0003] A relevant reference is Chinese utility model patent CN218707160U, which discloses a glass substrate feeding device, including a support frame and a conveyor belt. At least two conveyor belts are arranged side-by-side. Each conveyor belt has a connecting plate and a bracket within the space between its upper and lower belt layers. The connecting plate is fixed to the support frame, and the bracket is fixed to the connecting plate. The bracket is a strip-shaped plate structure arranged in the same direction as the conveyor belt, supporting the upper belt layer. In this utility model, the bracket supports the upper belt layer, ensuring the glass substrate remains horizontally straight during movement, effectively preventing sagging deformation of the conveyor belt during product transfer, and preventing the glass substrate from slipping.

[0004] The aforementioned glass substrate feeding device moves the glass substrate by means of a conveyor belt. However, there is no limit to the distance between the conveyor belt and the drive wheel. The conveyor belt may slip off the surface of the drive wheel, and the conveyor belt may deviate from the center of the drive wheel, causing a deviation in the rotation speed of the conveyor belt on the left and right sides. This affects the transportation of the glass substrate. Furthermore, since the bracket is in contact with the upper layer of the conveyor belt and maintains a certain relative pressure under the influence of the glass's gravity, the conveyor belt will wear when it rotates, affecting the service life of the equipment. Utility Model Content

[0005] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides a glass feeding device that solves the problems of wear on the transmission belt due to the limiting structure and the transmission belt easily detaching from the transmission wheel.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: A glass feeding device includes a base plate, and a conveying mechanism is arranged above the base plate.

[0007] The drive assembly includes a support frame fixedly installed on the left and right sides of the base plate. Synchronous pulleys are movably installed at both ends of the support frame, and a synchronous belt is fitted onto the outer side of the synchronous pulley. The drive assembly also includes a limiting frame fixedly installed above the base plate, and a drive motor is fixedly installed at the center of the limiting frame.

[0008] A limiting component is positioned above the support frame to limit the position of the timing belt and drive the glass substrate to move.

[0009] Preferably, the support frame is mirror-symmetrically installed on the left and right sides of the base plate with the center of the base plate as the reference. The synchronous pulley and the support frame are rotatably connected by bearings. The contact surface between the synchronous pulley and the synchronous belt is located at the center, and the diameters on both sides of the synchronous pulley are larger than the diameter at the center.

[0010] Preferably, the synchronous pulleys are flared on both sides, and the drive motor is mounted symmetrically on the front end of the base plate by means of a limiting bracket, and the shaft of the drive motor is fixedly connected to the corresponding synchronous pulleys on the left and right sides by means of interlocking.

[0011] Preferably, the limiting component includes a fixed rod fixedly installed on the upper and lower sides of the support frame, a limiting ring fixedly installed on one side of the fixed rod, and a connecting rod equidistantly installed on the outer side of the timing belt. A connecting plate is fixedly installed at the top of the connecting rod, a support plate is fixedly installed above the connecting plate, a rubber plate is fixedly installed on the top surface of the support plate, a limiting plate is fixedly installed above the connecting plate and at the bottom of the bottom protrusion structure of the support plate, and ball bearings are fitted between the limiting plate and the connecting plate, and between the limiting plate and the support plate.

[0012] Preferably, the size of the limiting ring is larger than that of the synchronous belt, and the center of the limiting ring coincides with the center of the half-circle structure at both ends of the synchronous belt. The limiting ring is fixedly connected to the support frame through limiting rods on the upper and lower sides of the support frame. The connecting rod is fixed to the outside of the synchronous belt by bolts. The connecting rod, the connecting plate, and the support plate are connected by bolts.

[0013] Preferably, the outer center of the limiting ring is provided with an annular groove, the protrusion structure at the bottom of the support plate is fitted into the groove structure of the limiting ring, the ball bearings below the support plate are in contact with the bottom surface of the groove structure of the limiting ring, and the ball bearings above the connecting plate are in contact with the inner wall of the limiting ring.

[0014] Beneficial effects

[0015] This invention provides a glass feeding device. Compared with the prior art, it has the following advantages:

[0016] (1) The glass feeding device, through the setting of the synchronous wheel, since the two sides of the synchronous wheel are horn-shaped, when the synchronous belt deviates from the center, its contact area with the synchronous wheel forms a wedge shape (one side is tight and the other side is loose). The horn-shaped structure on both sides of the synchronous wheel will cause the synchronous belt to be subjected to greater radial pressure on the deviated side (due to the large diameter and small curvature), increasing the contact friction force and further suppressing the deviation. The protruding structure at the bottom of the support plate is embedded in the groove of the limiting ring. The limiting ring can restrict the movement path of the support plate, and the support plate is fixedly connected to the synchronous belt through the connecting plate and the connecting rod. Then, the limiting ring restricts the running path of the synchronous belt to be kept in the center of the synchronous wheel to avoid the synchronous belt deviating and slipping.

[0017] (2) The glass feeding device, through the setting of the limiting ring, the fixed rod can limit the position of the limiting ring, and the connecting rod connects the upper connecting plate and the support plate to the synchronous belt. When the synchronous belt rotates, it can drive the connecting rod, the connecting plate and the support plate to move synchronously. The rubber plate above the support plate can support the glass substrate and increase the friction between it and the glass substrate to facilitate the movement of the glass substrate. The limiting plate can limit the position of the ball. The ball reduces the friction between the connecting plate and the inner wall of the limiting ring, and between the support plate and the sliding groove of the limiting ring. In this way, the position of the upper support plate is limited by the limiting ring, and the synchronous belt only contacts the synchronous pulleys at both ends to avoid wear of the synchronous belt.

Detailed Implementation

[0023] 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.

[0024] Please see Figure 1-4 This utility model provides a technical solution: a glass feeding device, which includes a base plate 1 and a conveying mechanism 2 disposed above the base plate 1.

[0025] The drive assembly 21 includes a support frame 211 fixedly installed on the left and right sides of the base plate 1. Synchronous pulleys 212 are movably installed at both ends of the support frame 211. A synchronous belt 213 is fitted on the outer side of the synchronous pulleys 212. The drive assembly 21 also includes a limiting frame 214 fixedly installed on the top of the base plate 1. A drive motor 215 is fixedly installed at the center of the limiting frame 214.

[0026] The limiting component 22 is disposed above the support frame 211 to limit the position of the synchronous belt 213 and drive the glass substrate to move. The support frame 211 is mirror-symmetrically installed on the left and right sides of the base plate 1 with the center as the reference. The synchronous wheel 212 is rotatably connected to the support frame 211 through bearings. The contact surface between the synchronous wheel 212 and the synchronous belt 213 is located at the center, and the diameter of the synchronous wheel 212 on both sides is larger than the diameter at the center. The synchronous wheel 212 is flared on both sides. The drive motor 215 is mirror-symmetrically installed on the front end of the base plate 1 through the limiting frame 214, and the shaft of the drive motor 215 is fixedly connected to the corresponding synchronous wheels 212 on the left and right sides by interlocking.

[0027] Specifically, the base plate 1 can limit the position of the support frame 211 and the limiting frame 214. The limiting frame 214 limits the relative position between the drive motor 215 and the synchronous pulley 212, so that the drive motor 215 can drive the synchronous pulley 212 to rotate. When the synchronous pulley 212 rotates, it can drive the synchronous belt 213 to rotate. Since the two sides of the synchronous pulley 212 are flared, when the synchronous belt 213 deviates from the center, its contact area with the synchronous pulley 212 forms a wedge shape (one side is tight and the other side is loose). The flared structure on both sides of the synchronous pulley 212 will cause the synchronous belt 213 to be subjected to greater radial pressure on the deviated side (due to the large diameter and small curvature), increasing the contact friction and further suppressing the deviation.

[0028] The limiting component 22 includes fixed rods 221 fixedly installed on the upper and lower sides of the support frame 211. A limiting ring 222 is fixedly installed on one side of the fixed rods 221. The limiting component 22 also includes connecting rods 223 equidistantly installed on the outer side of the timing belt 213. A connecting plate 224 is fixedly installed on the top of the connecting rods 223. A support plate 225 is fixedly installed on the top of the connecting plate 224. A rubber plate 226 is fixedly installed on the top surface of the support plate 225. A limiting plate 227 is fixedly installed on the top of the connecting plate 224 and at the bottom of the protruding structure at the bottom of the support plate 225. Ball bearings 228 are fitted between the limiting plate 227 and the connecting plate 224, and between the limiting plate 227 and the support plate 225. The size of the limiting ring 222 is... The size is larger than that of the synchronous belt 213, and the center of the limiting ring 222 coincides with the center of the half-circle structure at both ends of the synchronous belt 213. The limiting ring 222 is fixedly connected to the support frame 211 through the limiting rods on the upper and lower sides of the support frame 211. The connecting rod 223 is fixed to the outside of the synchronous belt 213 by bolts. The connecting rod 223, the connecting plate 224, and the support plate 225 are connected by bolts. An annular groove is provided at the center of the outer side of the limiting ring 222. The protruding structure at the bottom of the support plate 225 is fitted into the groove structure of the limiting ring 222. The ball bearings 228 below the support plate 225 contact the bottom surface of the groove structure of the limiting ring 222. The ball bearings 228 above the connecting plate 224 contact the inner wall of the limiting ring 222.

[0029] Specifically, the fixing rod 221 can limit the position of the limiting ring 222. The connecting rod 223 connects the upper connecting plate 224, support plate 225 and synchronous belt 213. When the synchronous belt 213 rotates, it can drive the connecting rod 223, connecting plate 224 and support plate 225 to move synchronously. The rubber plate 226 above the support plate 225 can support the glass substrate and increase the friction between it and the glass substrate to facilitate the movement of the glass substrate. The limiting plate 227 can limit the position of the ball 228. The ball 228 reduces the friction between the connecting plate 224 and the limiting ring. The friction between the inner walls of 222 and between the support plate 225 and the groove of the limiting ring 222; the protruding structure at the bottom of the support plate 225 is fitted into the groove of the limiting ring 222; the limiting ring 222 can restrict the movement path of the support plate 225; the support plate 225 is fixedly connected to the synchronous belt 213 through the connecting plate 224, the connecting rod 223, and the limiting ring 222, thereby restricting the running path of the synchronous belt 213 to be kept in the center of the synchronous pulley 212; at the same time, the contents not described in detail in this specification are all prior art known to those skilled in the art.

[0030] During operation, due to the flared shape of the sides of the synchronous pulley 212, when the synchronous belt 213 deviates from the center, its contact area with the synchronous pulley 212 forms a wedge shape (one side tight, one side loose). The flared structure on both sides of the synchronous pulley 212 causes the synchronous belt 213 to experience greater radial pressure on the deviated side (due to its larger diameter and smaller curvature), increasing contact friction and further suppressing deviation. The protruding structure at the bottom of the support plate 225 is fitted into the groove of the limiting ring 222. The limiting ring 222 can restrict the movement path of the support plate 225. The support plate 225 is fixedly connected to the synchronous belt 213 through the connecting plate 224, the connecting rod 223, and the limiting ring 222, thereby limiting the running path of the synchronous belt 213 to remain in the center of the synchronous pulley 212 to prevent the synchronous belt 213 from deviating and slipping. The fixing rod 221 can limit... The position of the limiting ring 222 is controlled by the connecting rod 223, which connects the upper connecting plate 224, support plate 225 and synchronous belt 213. When the synchronous belt 213 rotates, it can drive the connecting rod 223, connecting plate 224 and support plate 225 to move synchronously. The rubber plate 226 above the support plate 225 can support the glass substrate and increase the friction between it and the glass substrate to facilitate the movement of the glass substrate. The limiting plate 227 can limit the position of the ball 228. The ball 228 reduces the friction between the connecting plate 224 and the inner wall of the limiting ring 222, and between the support plate 225 and the groove of the limiting ring 222. In this way, the position of the upper support plate 225 is limited by the limiting ring 222. The synchronous belt 213 only contacts the synchronous pulleys 212 at both ends to avoid wear of the synchronous belt 213.
