Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of glass stacking technology, and in particular to a glass L-shaped frame suitable for various stacking methods. Background Technology

[0002] The production process of float glass mainly involves mixing raw materials such as silica sand, soda ash, dolomite, and limestone in a certain proportion, melting them at high temperature, and then continuously flowing out of the furnace and floating on the surface of the molten tin to form a glass ribbon of uniform thickness. Subsequently, the glass ribbon undergoes annealing, cutting, and other processes to produce transparent and colorless flat glass. The cut glass sheets are then conveyed to the cold end via roller conveyors for defect detection, cutting, stacking, and finally packing, unpacking, and warehousing.

[0003] In the stacking process, a large number of L-shaped frames are needed to support, stack, and transfer glass. With technological advancements, various types of stacker cranes have emerged, among which the most widely used are ordinary medium-sized stacker cranes, large-sized stacker cranes, and extra-large-sized stacker cranes. Medium-sized and large-sized stacker cranes are typically smaller in size, and their stacking platforms can rotate 360°. Once the glass is stacked, the platform automatically rotates, facilitating unloading by forklifts from the front. However, extra-large-sized stacker cranes, due to their larger footprint, do not have rotating platforms, requiring forklifts to approach from the rear and use a backward-leaning posture for unloading operations.

[0004] This difference in operating procedures creates safety hazards. Some forklift drivers are accustomed to tilting the rack forward to unload it. When encountering large glass racks that need to be tilted backward, they may mistakenly tilt forward due to inertia. This misoperation can easily cause the entire glass rack to tip over, resulting in severe damage to the glass and equipment, and potentially threatening personnel safety.

[0005] Therefore, in order to further reduce safety risks during operation, there is an urgent need to develop a new type of glass L-shaped frame. This frame must meet the following core requirements:

[0006] Wide applicability: It is compatible with various stacking methods such as medium-sized stacker cranes, large stacker cranes, and extra-large stacker cranes.

[0007] Operational safety: Even if the forklift driver makes a mistake (e.g., performing a forward tilting action when it is required to tilt backward to unload the glass), the frame itself should be able to ensure that the stacked glass does not tip over, thereby effectively avoiding property damage and significantly reducing safety risks to personnel and equipment. Utility Model Content

[0008] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the problem of glass tipping over when receiving and transferring glass using an L-shaped frame in the prior art. It provides a glass L-frame suitable for various stacking methods.

[0009] The first aspect of this utility model provides a glass L-shaped frame suitable for various stacking methods, including an L-shaped frame body, wherein limiting mechanisms are respectively provided on both sides of the L-shaped frame body;

[0010] Each limiting mechanism includes:

[0011] An extension portion, one end of which is connected to the side of the L-shaped frame;

[0012] A barrier section, connected to the other end of the extension, is used to limit the lateral displacement of the stacked glass assembly;

[0013] The barrier is rotatably connected to the enclosure and can limit the outside of the stacked glass assembly.

[0014] This utility model provides a glass L-shaped frame suitable for various stacking methods, including an L-shaped frame body with limiting mechanisms on both sides. Each limiting mechanism includes: an extension, one end of which is connected to the side of the L-shaped frame body; a containment part, connected to the other end of the extension, used to limit the lateral displacement of the stacked glass assembly; and a barrier part, rotatably connected to the containment part, capable of limiting the external movement of the stacked glass assembly. In use, a stacker crane is used to transport the glass assembly to the top of the L-shaped frame body, and the glass assembly is slowly placed into position. After placement, the containment part on the side of the glass assembly limits its movement, and then the barrier part is operated to limit the external movement of the glass assembly. In terms of operational safety, even if the forklift driver makes a mistake such as accidentally tilting forward while lowering the glass assembly, the L-shaped frame body, in conjunction with the limiting mechanisms, can largely offset the external force caused by the mistake, preventing the glass from tipping over, thus effectively preventing property damage and significantly reducing the safety risks of personnel injury and equipment damage, providing reliable protection for glass stacking operations. It is compatible with various stacking methods such as medium-sized stacker, large-sized stacker, and extra-large stacker, making it easy to promote and apply.

[0015] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the enclosure and the barrier are covered with a glass protective layer.

[0016] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the glass protective layer is an EPE foam material component.

[0017] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the extension and the enclosure are integrally formed L-shaped components.

[0018] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the extension portion forms a telescopic connection structure with the side portion of the L-shaped frame.

[0019] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the L-shaped frame is provided with a hollow cross brace in the lateral direction, and the extension can slide into the hollow cross brace to achieve a telescopic connection.

[0020] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the enclosure is a telescopic structure used to adapt to glass assemblies with different stacking widths.

[0021] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the barrier includes:

[0022] A tie rod is located on the side of the enclosure portion away from the L-shaped frame and is positioned opposite to the enclosure portion.

[0023] The barrier has one end fixedly connected to the pull rod, and the barrier is rotatably connected to the end of the enclosure away from the extension. The up and down movement of the pull rod can drive the barrier to rotate, thereby limiting or removing the limitation on the outside of the stacked glass assembly.

[0024] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the barrier includes at least two blocks, with adjacent blocks arranged opposite to each other and capable of rotating synchronously.

[0025] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the stop is connected with fasteners for abutting against the outside of the stacked glass assembly.

[0026] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0027] This utility model provides a glass L-shaped frame suitable for various stacking methods. The limiting mechanism on both sides of the L-shaped frame consists of an extension, a barrier, and a rotatable guardrail. The extension connects to the side of the frame, the barrier limits the lateral displacement of the glass assembly, and the guardrail rotatably limits the external movement of the glass assembly. These three components work together to form a three-dimensional protective structure. In use, after the stacker crane places the glass assembly in place, the barrier first provides lateral limiting, and the guardrail further reinforces it. Even if the forklift driver makes a mistake such as tilting backward or forward while unloading, the L-shaped frame and limiting mechanism can effectively counteract the external force through mechanical structure, preventing the glass from tipping over and greatly reducing the risk of property damage, personal injury, and equipment damage. Furthermore, it is compatible with various stacker cranes, including medium, large, and extra-large glass stackers, broadening its application scenarios and possessing significant promotional value.

[0040] Each limiting mechanism 2 includes:

[0041] Extension 21, one end of which is connected to the side of the L-shaped frame 1;

[0042] Enclosure 22, which is connected to the other end of extension 21, is used to limit the lateral displacement of the stacked glass assembly;

[0043] The barrier 23 is rotatably connected to the enclosure 22 and can limit the outside of the stacked glass assembly.

[0044] The limiting mechanism on both sides of the L-shaped frame consists of an extension, a barrier, and a rotatable guardrail.
