Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of tempered glass conveying technology, and particularly to a tempered glass suspension conveying device. Background Technology

[0002] In the production, processing, and transportation of tempered glass, suspended conveyor systems are widely used due to their advantages such as not occupying ground space and high conveying efficiency. However, the clamps of existing tempered glass suspended conveyor systems are relatively simple, relying solely on two parallel clamping plates for holding the glass. When vibrations occur during conveying or the clamping components wear down, they cannot effectively ensure the stable fixation of the glass, which can easily lead to the glass falling off. This not only damages the glass but may also threaten the safety of personnel and equipment.

[0003] Therefore, there is an urgent need to design a tempered glass suspension conveyor with anti-fall function. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a tempered glass suspension conveying device to solve the problem that tempered glass is prone to falling during suspension conveying in the prior art.

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

[0006] A tempered glass suspension conveying device includes a suspension assembly, a conveying track, a clamping assembly, and an anti-falling assembly; the suspension assembly is slidably disposed at the bottom end of the conveying track; the clamping assembly includes two parallel clamping plates slidably disposed at the bottom end of the suspension assembly, and a driving assembly for driving the two clamping plates to move towards or away from each other;

[0007] The anti-fall component includes an anti-fall plate with two clamping plates close to each other on one side, a plurality of strip grooves on the top of each anti-fall plate, and a plurality of rollers rotatably disposed in each strip groove; the axial direction of the plurality of rollers is perpendicular to the moving direction of the clamping plates; the tops of the plurality of rollers are flush with and higher than the top of the anti-fall plate.

[0008] Preferably, the suspension assembly includes a first connecting plate slidably connected to the conveying track, multiple suspension rods disposed at the bottom end of the first connecting plate, and a second connecting plate disposed at the bottom end of the multiple suspension rods; both clamping plates are slidably disposed at the bottom end of the second connecting plate. In this design, the first connecting plate achieves the sliding of the suspension assembly by cooperating with the conveying track, the suspension rods provide connection, and the second connecting plate provides the mounting base for the clamping plates.

[0009] Preferably, each of the clamping plates has a first slider at its top, and the bottom of the second connecting plate has a horizontal groove that slides with the first slider. In this design, the first slider cooperates with the horizontal groove of the second connecting plate to ensure the smoothness and accuracy of the clamping plate movement.

[0010] This allows the clamping plate to slide stably on the second connecting plate, ensuring smooth movement of the clamping plate under the action of the drive assembly.

[0011] Preferably, the driving assembly includes a fixed plate disposed at the bottom end of the second connecting plate and located outside the two clamping plates, a lead screw rotatably disposed between the two fixed plates, and a motor disposed on one of the fixed plates and fixedly connected to one end of the lead screw; both clamping plates are sleeved on the outside of the lead screw and are threadedly connected to the lead screw respectively. In this solution, the motor drives the lead screw to rotate, and the threaded transmission of the lead screw realizes the relative or opposite movement of the two clamping plates, thereby clamping or releasing the tempered glass. The structure is simple and the transmission is precise. In addition, by moving the two clamping plates, stable clamping of tempered glass of different sizes can be achieved.

[0012] Preferably, the second connecting plate includes a top plate and a bottom plate rotatably mounted on the bottom end of the top plate.

[0013] Preferably, the top of the top plate is provided with an L-shaped plate, and a screw is vertically installed on the L-shaped plate. The bottom end of the screw penetrates the top plate and can contact the top surface of the bottom plate.

[0014] Preferably, a buffer layer is provided on the side of the two clamping plates that are close to each other.

[0015] Preferably, the conveying track is a double-rail electric slide rail, and a second slider that is slidably adapted to the electric slide rail is provided at the top of the first connecting plate. In this solution, the double-rail electric slide rail provides a stable running track, which, together with the second slider, enables the smooth sliding of the suspension component. Furthermore, the electric slide rail can achieve precise speed and position control, improving conveying efficiency and accuracy.

[0016] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0017] 1. The anti-fall plate in the anti-fall assembly can form a physical barrier immediately when the clamping plate accidentally loosens, preventing the tempered glass from falling directly and improving the conveying safety of the conveying device.

[0018] By setting a groove at the top of the anti-fall plate and installing a roller inside the groove, rolling friction is generated between the glass and the two anti-fall plates during the contact between the glass and the top of the roller and the movement of the two anti-fall plates towards or away from each other. This greatly reduces the friction between the glass and the two anti-fall plates and effectively prevents scratches or damage to the glass due to friction when the two anti-fall plates move towards or away from each other.

[0019] 2. The top and bottom plates of the second connecting plate are designed to rotate, and in conjunction with the L-shaped plate and screw, the operator can flexibly adjust the angle of the second connecting plate according to the actual conveying scenario. By rotating the screw, the bottom plate can be locked after it has rotated to a designated position, effectively improving the flexibility of the conveying device. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation

[0024] Example 1

[0025] A tempered glass suspension conveying device, such as Figure 1 As shown, it includes a suspension assembly, a conveying track 1 (fixed to a sturdy wall, ceiling, or floor via mounting brackets), a clamping assembly, and an anti-fall assembly. The suspension assembly is slidably disposed at the bottom end of the conveying track 1; the clamping assembly includes two parallel clamping plates 2 slidably disposed at the bottom end of the suspension assembly, and a drive assembly for driving the two clamping plates 2 to move towards or away from each other; as shown... Figure 1-2As shown, the anti-fall assembly includes an anti-fall plate 3 disposed on one side of the two clamping plates 2 close to each other, a plurality of strip grooves 4 disposed on the top of each anti-fall plate 3, and a plurality of rollers 5 rotatably disposed in each strip groove 4; the axial direction of the plurality of rollers 5 is perpendicular to the moving direction of the clamping plates 2; the tops of the plurality of rollers 5 are flush with and all higher than the top of the anti-fall plate 3.

[0026] Furthermore, such as Figure 1 As shown, the suspension assembly includes a first connecting plate 6 slidably connected to the conveying track 1, multiple suspension rods 7 disposed at the bottom end of the first connecting plate 6, and a second connecting plate 8 disposed at the bottom end of the multiple suspension rods 7; both clamping plates 2 are slidably disposed at the bottom end of the second connecting plate 8. Further, each clamping plate 2 has a first slider 9 at its top end, and the bottom end of the second connecting plate 8 has a horizontal groove 10 that slidably engages with the first slider 9. Further, the drive assembly includes a fixed plate 11 disposed at the bottom end of the second connecting plate 8 and located outside the two clamping plates 2, a lead screw 12 rotatably disposed between the two fixed plates 11, and a motor 13 disposed on one of the fixed plates 11 and fixedly connected to one end of the lead screw 12; both clamping plates 2 are sleeved outside the lead screw 12 and are threadedly connected to the lead screw 12 respectively.

[0027] Furthermore, such as Figure 1 As shown, the conveying track 1 is a double-rail electric slide rail. The top of the first connecting plate 6 is provided with a second slider 17 that is adapted to slide with the electric slide rail. In actual use, the double rails are generally connected laterally by a rigid metal rod.

[0028] Working Principle: When using this tempered glass suspension conveyor, the tempered glass is first placed on two anti-fall plates 3. Then, the motor 13 of the drive assembly is started, which drives the lead screw 12 to rotate. Since the two clamping plates 2 are threadedly connected to the lead screw 12 respectively, and the threads are in opposite directions, the two clamping plates 2 will move towards each other along the horizontal slide 10 during the rotation of the lead screw 12, until the tempered glass is clamped and fixed on opposite sides. During this process, the glass and the anti-fall plates 3 experience rolling friction, which can greatly reduce the friction between the glass and the anti-fall plates 3, thereby effectively preventing scratches or damage to the glass surface.

[0029] Subsequently, the electric slide rail is activated (the electric slide rail uses existing technology, and its sliding engagement with the second slider 17 is also existing technology; the electric slide rail is generally activated through a control system, which is also existing technology, and its working principle will not be elaborated here). The second slider 17 at the top of the first connecting plate 6 slides in engagement with the double-rail electric slide rail, driving the suspension assembly to move along the track. During the movement, the first connecting plate 6 is connected to the second connecting plate 8 through multiple suspension rods 7, enabling the second connecting plate 8 and the clamped glass to stably follow the movement of the suspension assembly.

[0030] In the event of an unexpected situation during transport, such as when the clamping plate 2 becomes loose due to vibration or wear, the anti-fall plate 3 will promptly prevent the tempered glass from falling downwards, providing safety for the glass.

[0031] Once the glass is transported to the designated position, the motor 13 causes the two clamping plates 2 and the anti-fall plate 3 connected to them to move in opposite directions, thereby releasing the clamping of the glass, allowing the operator to remove it.

[0032] Example 2

[0033] Based on Example 1, such as Figure 3 As shown, the second connecting plate 8 includes a top plate 801 and a bottom plate 802 rotatably mounted on the bottom end of the top plate 801. The rotatable connection design of the top plate 801 and the bottom plate 802 allows the second connecting plate 8 to adjust its horizontal angle according to actual needs, adapting to tempered glass conveying scenarios with different installation requirements. Furthermore, as... Figure 3 As shown, an L-shaped plate 14 is provided at the top of the top plate 801, and a screw 15 is vertically mounted on the L-shaped plate 14. The bottom end of the screw 15 passes through the top plate 801 and can contact the top surface of the bottom plate 802. By rotating the screw 15, the rotation angle of the bottom plate 802 can be locked and adjusted, enhancing the flexibility and stability of the second connecting plate 8.

[0034] In practice, if it is necessary to adjust the glass conveying angle, the operator can unlock the second connecting plate 8 base plate 802 by rotating the screw 15, rotate the base plate 802 according to the actual needs, adjust it to a suitable angle, and then tighten the screw 15 again to fix the angle of the base plate 802. This allows the conveying device to adapt to different working scenarios and complete complex tempered glass conveying tasks.

[0035] Furthermore, a buffer layer (such as a silicone layer) is provided on the side of each of the two clamping plates 2 that are close to each other. The buffer layer can effectively prevent the clamping plate 2 from directly contacting the tempered glass surface, reducing scratches and damage to the glass surface, and at the same time, it plays a buffering role during the clamping process of the clamping plate 2, improving the safety of clamping.
