Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of glass processing edging equipment, and in particular to a glass processing edging machine. Background Technology

[0002] The edges of glass after cutting are often quite sharp, which can affect the personal safety of operators in subsequent processing. In addition, the sharp edges of glass have high stress concentration, and they can break with a little external force. Therefore, glass should be ground before use to eliminate stress and reduce danger.

[0003] The invention patent with publication number CN110480450A discloses a glass edging machine. According to the width of the glass, the distance between two grinding rollers and the two sides of the glass is adjusted. After the position is adjusted, the moving plate is moved horizontally by two electric guide rails, thereby driving the two grinding rollers to grind the two sides of the glass simultaneously. However, this device requires manual adjustment of the distance between the grinding rollers and the two sides of the glass. This is not only labor-intensive, but also has limited grinding allowance after the grinding rollers are adjusted and they are pressed against the two sides of the glass. If the pressing force is too small, effective grinding cannot be achieved. If the pressing force is too large, the glass is prone to breakage. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a glass edging machine that can automatically adjust the distance between the grinding roller and the side of the glass, reducing labor intensity and improving grinding efficiency. At the same time, during the grinding process, multiple grinding wheels perform fine grinding step by step, making both sides of the glass flat and smooth. This avoids the situation where the grinding amount of a single grinding wheel is too large, resulting in poor grinding effect or glass breakage. It greatly improves grinding efficiency and finished product quality, while reducing material waste and manual intervention, and ensuring the stability and reliability of the production process.

[0005] The above-mentioned technical objective of this utility model is achieved through the following technical solution:

[0006] A glass edging machine includes a machine body and a worktable mounted on the machine body. A glass positioning mechanism and a glass edging mechanism are sequentially mounted on the worktable. The worktable is also provided with a glass fixing mechanism for fixing the glass. The glass fixing mechanism drives the glass from the glass positioning mechanism to the glass edging mechanism for edging processing under the drive of a moving drive mechanism.

[0007] By adopting the above technical solution, the glass positioning mechanism is used to automatically position the glass before it is fixed, so that after the glass is fixed by the glass fixing mechanism, the distance between the two sides of the glass to be processed and the grinding parts of the glass edging mechanism is equal, ensuring that the grinding allowance on both sides is consistent during glass grinding. Driven by the moving drive mechanism, the glass fixing mechanism moves the glass to be processed towards the glass edging mechanism until the two sides of the glass to be processed contact the grinding parts on both sides of the glass edging mechanism, thereby realizing the automatic edge grinding of the glass. As the glass fixing mechanism continues to move, the two sides of the glass to be processed are completely ground flat. The whole process is automatic, with low manual labor intensity. Moreover, the glass does not contact the glass edging mechanism during positioning, so it will not cause problems such as glass breakage or excessive grinding allowance.

[0008] A further feature of this invention is that the glass positioning mechanism includes positioning plates symmetrically arranged on opposite sides of the worktable, the two positioning plates being connected to positioning cylinders respectively, and the positioning cylinders being fixed on the worktable.

[0009] By adopting the above technical solution, when it is necessary to position the glass to be processed, the positioning cylinders on both sides of the worktable are activated simultaneously according to the size of the glass to be processed, so that the telescopic shafts of the two positioning cylinders extend simultaneously, thereby driving the two positioning plates to move simultaneously from both sides of the glass to be processed towards the glass to be processed, until the two positioning plates contact the two sides of the glass to be processed respectively. At this time, the center of the glass to be processed coincides with the center of the worktable, ensuring that the distance between the two sides of the glass to be processed and the grinding parts of the glass grinding mechanism is equal, thereby ensuring that the grinding allowance on both sides is consistent during the glass grinding operation.

[0010] A further feature of this invention is that the glass edging mechanism includes edging wheel sets symmetrically arranged on both sides of the worktable. Each edging wheel set includes multiple edging wheels, and each edging wheel in the two edging wheel sets corresponds to one another. The distance between the two opposing edging wheels decreases sequentially. Each edging wheel is rotatably connected to the support frame on the worktable via a rotating shaft, and each rotating shaft is connected to the edging drive mechanism.

[0011] By adopting the above technical solution, the grinding components in the glass edging mechanism are symmetrically arranged grinding wheel sets on both sides of the worktable. Each grinding wheel in the two grinding wheel sets rotates synchronously under the drive of the grinding drive mechanism. When the glass contacts each grinding wheel in the two grinding wheel sets in sequence, the grinding operation can be realized. Since the distance between the two opposite grinding wheels in the two grinding wheel sets decreases in sequence, the glass is ground finely step by step during the grinding process, and finally the two sides are flat and smooth. This avoids the situation where the grinding amount of a single grinding wheel is too large, resulting in poor grinding effect or glass breakage. It greatly improves grinding efficiency and finished product quality, while reducing material waste and manual intervention, and ensuring the stability and reliability of the production process.

[0012] A further feature of this invention is that the edge grinding drive mechanism includes an edge grinding drive motor, which is connected to a shaft in one edge grinding wheel assembly. The edge grinding drive motor is connected to a shaft in another edge grinding wheel assembly via a transmission belt. Each shaft in both edge grinding wheel assemblies is fixedly provided with a drive gear. A transmission gear is provided between the drive gears on adjacent shafts. The transmission gear is rotatably connected to the support frame via a transmission shaft. The drive gears on adjacent shafts mesh with the transmission gear.

[0013] By adopting the above technical solution, after the grinding drive motor starts, it drives the rotating shaft connected to it in the two grinding wheel sets to rotate. When the rotating shaft connected to it in the two grinding wheel sets rotates, it drives the drive gear fixedly connected to the rotating shaft to rotate. When the drive gear rotates, it drives the drive gear on the adjacent rotating shaft to rotate synchronously through the transmission gear. Thus, only one motor can drive all the grinding wheels in the two grinding wheel sets to rotate synchronously, ensuring that the grinding process is uniform and consistent, further improving the grinding accuracy and efficiency, and reducing energy consumption and maintenance costs.

[0014] A further feature of this invention is that the glass fixing mechanism includes a horizontal support plate located above the workbench, and a plurality of negative pressure suction cups for fixing the glass are embedded on the support surface of the horizontal support plate. The horizontal support plate is connected to a moving drive mechanism.

[0015] By adopting the above technical solution, the horizontal support plate in the glass fixing mechanism is used to provide stable support for the glass, and the negative pressure suction cup is used to adsorb and fix the glass, ensuring that the glass will not shift or vibrate during the polishing process. The negative pressure suction cup will not cause scratches or damage to the glass surface, effectively ensuring polishing accuracy and surface quality. In addition, the vacuum suction cup facilitates quick loading and unloading of glass, greatly improving work efficiency.

[0016] A further feature of this invention is that the moving drive mechanism includes a drive block fixed to the bottom of a horizontal support plate, the drive block being threadedly connected to a moving drive screw, the two ends of the moving drive screw being rotatably connected to the two ends of a worktable, the moving drive screw being connected to a moving drive motor fixed to the worktable, and the two sides of the moving drive screw being provided with parallel slide rails, and the horizontal support plate being slidably engaged with the slide rails.

[0017] By adopting the above technical solution, after the drive motor starts, it drives the moving drive screw to rotate at high speed. When the moving screw rotates, it drives the horizontal support plate to move along the slide rail with the drive block, thereby driving the glass fixed on the horizontal support plate to move, thus realizing continuous grinding of the glass side.

[0018] A further feature of this invention is that a rubber pad is provided on the support surface of the horizontal support plate, and the rubber pad avoids the negative pressure suction cup.

[0019] By adopting the above technical solution, the setting of the rubber pad can reduce the damage to the glass surface caused by friction when the glass slides relative to the horizontal support plate during the positioning process. At the same time, the softness of the rubber pad can effectively absorb the vibration generated during the polishing process, further stabilize the glass position, ensure the polishing effect, and extend the service life of the equipment.

[0020] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0021] 1. In this utility model, the glass positioning mechanism is used to automatically position the glass before it is fixed, so that after the glass is fixed by the glass fixing mechanism, the distance between the two sides of the glass to be processed and the grinding parts of the glass edging mechanism is equal, ensuring that the grinding allowance on both sides is consistent during glass grinding. The glass fixing mechanism drives the glass to be processed towards the glass edging mechanism until the two sides of the glass to be processed contact the grinding parts on both sides of the glass edging mechanism, thereby realizing the automatic edge grinding of the glass. As the glass fixing mechanism continues to move, the two sides of the glass to be processed are completely ground flat. The whole process is automatic, with low manual labor intensity. Moreover, the glass does not contact the glass edging mechanism during positioning, so it will not cause problems such as glass breakage or excessive grinding allowance.

[0022] 2. In this utility model, the grinding component in the glass edging mechanism is a symmetrically arranged edging wheel set on both sides of the worktable. Each edging wheel in the two edging wheel sets rotates synchronously under the drive of the edging drive mechanism. When the glass contacts each edging wheel in the two edging wheel sets in sequence, the grinding operation can be realized. Since the distance between the two opposing edging wheels in the two edging wheel sets decreases in sequence, the glass is ground finely step by step during the grinding process, and finally the two sides are flat and smooth. This avoids the situation where the grinding amount of a single edging wheel is too large in a single grinding, resulting in poor grinding effect or glass breakage. It greatly improves grinding efficiency and finished product quality, while reducing material waste and manual intervention, and ensuring the stability and reliability of the production process.

Detailed Implementation

[0028] The technical solution of this utility model will now be clearly and completely described with reference to specific embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of this utility model, and not all of them. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this utility model without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.

[0029] like Figures 1-3 As shown, a glass processing edge grinding machine includes a machine body 1 and a worktable 2 disposed on the machine body 1. A glass positioning mechanism 3 and a glass edge grinding mechanism 4 are sequentially disposed on the worktable 2. A glass fixing mechanism 5 for fixing the glass is also disposed on the worktable 2. The glass fixing mechanism 5 drives the glass from the glass positioning mechanism 3 to the glass edge grinding mechanism 4 for edge grinding under the drive of the moving drive mechanism 8.

[0030] Furthermore, the glass positioning mechanism 3 includes positioning plates 31 symmetrically arranged on opposite sides of the worktable 2. The two positioning plates 31 are respectively connected to positioning cylinders 32, and the positioning cylinders 32 are respectively fixed on the worktable 2.

[0031] Furthermore, the glass edging mechanism 4 includes edging wheel sets symmetrically arranged on both sides of the worktable 2. Each edging wheel set includes multiple edging wheels 41. Each edging wheel 41 in the two edging wheel sets corresponds to one another, and the distance between the two opposing edging wheels 41 decreases sequentially. Each edging wheel 41 is rotatably connected to the support frame 6 on the worktable 2 through a rotating shaft 42, and each rotating shaft 42 is connected to the edging drive mechanism 7.

[0032] Furthermore, the edge grinding drive mechanism 7 includes an edge grinding drive motor 71, which is connected to a rotating shaft 42 in one edge grinding wheel assembly. The edge grinding drive motor 71 is also connected to a rotating shaft 42 in another edge grinding wheel assembly via a transmission belt 72. Each rotating shaft 42 in both edge grinding wheel assemblies is fixedly provided with a drive gear 73. A transmission gear 74 is provided between the drive gears 73 on adjacent rotating shafts 42. The transmission gear 74 is rotatably connected to the support frame 6 via a transmission shaft 75. The drive gears 73 on adjacent rotating shafts 42 are all meshed with the transmission gear 74.

[0033] Furthermore, the glass fixing mechanism 5 includes a horizontal support plate 51 located above the worktable 2. A plurality of negative pressure suction cups 52 for fixing the glass are embedded on the support surface of the horizontal support plate 51. The horizontal support plate 51 is connected to the moving drive mechanism 8.

[0034] Furthermore, the moving drive mechanism 8 includes a drive block 81 fixed to the bottom of the horizontal support plate 51. The drive block 81 is threadedly connected to the moving drive screw 82. The two ends of the moving drive screw 82 are rotatably connected to the two ends of the worktable 2, respectively. The moving drive screw 82 is connected to the moving drive motor 83 fixed on the worktable 2. The two sides of the moving drive screw 82 are respectively provided with slide rails 84 parallel to it. The horizontal support plate 51 is slidably engaged with the slide rails 84.

[0035] Furthermore, the horizontal support plate 51 has a rubber pad on its support surface, and the rubber pad avoids the negative pressure suction cup 52.

[0036] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: First, the glass to be ground is placed on the horizontal support plate 51 of the glass fixing mechanism 5. Then, the moving drive mechanism is started until the glass moves with the horizontal support plate 51 to a position opposite to the glass positioning mechanism 3. Then, the two positioning cylinders 32 in the glass positioning mechanism 3 are started, so that the telescopic shafts of the two positioning cylinders 32 extend simultaneously, thereby driving the two positioning plates 31 to move simultaneously from both sides of the glass to be processed towards the glass to be processed, until the two positioning plates 31 contact the two sides of the glass to be processed respectively. At this time, the center of the glass to be processed coincides with the center of the worktable 2, ensuring that the distance between the two sides of the glass to be processed and the grinding components of the glass edging mechanism 4 is equal. Then, the negative pressure suction cup 52 on the horizontal support plate 51 is controlled to adsorb and fix the glass, ensuring that the glass will not shift or vibrate during the grinding process. The moving drive mechanism is started again, so that... The horizontal support plate 51 drives the fixed glass to move towards the glass edging mechanism 4. The two sides of the glass contact each edging wheel 41 in the glass edging mechanism 4 in turn. Each edging wheel 41 rotates synchronously under the drive of the edging drive mechanism 7, thereby realizing the grinding operation. Since the distance between the two opposing edging wheels 41 in the two edging wheel groups decreases in turn, the glass is finely ground step by step during the grinding process, and finally the two sides are flat and smooth. This avoids the situation where the grinding amount of a single edging wheel 41 is too large, resulting in poor grinding effect or glass breakage. It greatly improves grinding efficiency and finished product quality, while reducing material waste and manual intervention, ensuring the stability and reliability of the production process. The whole process is automatic, with low manual labor intensity. Moreover, the glass does not contact the glass edging mechanism 4 when it is positioned, so it will not cause problems such as glass breakage or insufficient grinding allowance.
