Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of glass transfer equipment, specifically to a glass sheet cross-transfer equipment. Background Technology
[0002] With the widespread use of automated equipment (such as robotic arms and transmission belts), almost 60% of the work in the LCD screen manufacturing process can be completed by automated equipment. However, due to the limited stability of automated equipment and to avoid a large number of defective products, existing automated equipment still requires manual assistance.
[0003] When inspecting glass substrates, manual assistance is required to check or clean burrs. To ensure operational safety, operators need to maintain a certain distance from the robotic arm. After inspection or cleaning, the workpiece is returned to the robotic arm via a conveyor belt, and then the robotic arm grabs and transfers it to the packaging equipment. The position of the robotic arm is fixed, so the gripping position is generally fixed as well. If the error of the returned workpiece deviates significantly, it will affect the precise gripping of the robotic arm. Utility Model Content
[0004] To overcome the above-mentioned defects, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a glass sheet cross-transfer device, which reduces the intensity of manual labor and improves the conveying efficiency of the device by cross-transferring between two feeding plates.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides a glass sheet cross-transfer device, including a base, on which a power unit, a support seat, and a feeding device are provided. The support seat includes a first support seat and a second support seat; the feeding device includes a first feeding plate and a second feeding plate; the width of the first feeding plate is smaller than the width of the second feeding plate, and the height of the first feeding plate is lower than the height of the second feeding plate; the power unit includes a power belt and a drive wheel, the power belt being wound around the drive wheel; the first feeding plate and the second feeding plate are respectively drivenly connected to the power belt, and the drive wheel is connected to a motor. Under the action of the drive wheel, the first feeding plate and the second feeding plate move towards each other or away from each other synchronously via the power belt.
[0006] Preferably, the first support base and the second support base are provided with a plurality of guide slide rails, and guide sliders are fixedly provided on the side or bottom of the first support base and the second support base, and the guide sliders are slidably connected to the guide slide rails.
[0007] Preferably, the first support base and the second support base are arranged in parallel.
[0008] Preferably, the first feeding plate is provided with a first material position, and the second feeding plate is provided with a second material position; in the vertical direction, the first material position and the second material position are the same in position and width.
[0009] Preferably, the first material position and the second material position are each provided with a plurality of limit blocks.
[0010] Preferably, both the power belt and the drive wheel are disposed within the groove of the second support seat.
[0011] Preferably, the first support base and the side support plates of the second support base are fixedly connected to the power belt through a fixing block.
[0012] The beneficial technical effects achieved by this utility model after adopting the above technical solution are as follows:
[0013] 1. Because a first support base and a second support base are set on the base, and a first feeding plate and a second feeding plate are slidably set on the first support base and the second support base, the drive wheel and the power belt serve as the power source to drive the first feeding plate and the second feeding plate to move synchronously. Since the width and height of the first feeding plate are smaller than those of the second feeding plate, it can pass through the bottom of the second feeding plate. Both feeding plates can independently place workpieces, and the initial position and the final position of the transfer are the same. Therefore, the operator does not need to frequently go back and forth to inspect the glass sheet, which is more operator-friendly and can significantly reduce labor intensity.
[0014] 2. Since a first material position is set on the first feeding plate and a second material position is set on the second feeding plate, and the positions and widths of the first and second material positions are the same in the vertical direction, by controlling the rotation time of the drive wheel, it is ensured that the initial and final positions of the first and second material positions are the same each time. In this way, when the robot arm grabs, there is only a certain height difference. By adjusting the robot arm program appropriately, it can grab again and ensure the transfer efficiency.

[0022] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely for explaining the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model.
[0023] See Figures 1-3 This utility model provides a glass sheet cross-transfer device, including a base 1, on which a power unit 2, a support base, and a feeding device 3 are mounted. The support base includes a first support base 11 and a second support base 12. The feeding device 3 includes a first feeding plate 31 and a second feeding plate 32. The width of the first feeding plate 31 is smaller than the width of the second feeding plate 32, and the height of the first feeding plate 31 is lower than the height of the second feeding plate 32. The power unit 2 includes a power belt 21 and a drive wheel 22, with the power belt 21 wound around the drive wheel 22. The first feeding plate 31 and the second feeding plate 32 are respectively driven and connected to the power belt 21. The drive wheel 22 is connected to a motor. Under the action of the drive wheel 22, the first feeding plate 31 and the second feeding plate 32 move towards each other or away from each other synchronously via the power belt 21. See also Figure 1 In this configuration, the drive wheel 22 is connected to the second support base 12 via a wheel frame. A motor is typically mounted on the bottom of the drive wheel 22. The sides of the first feeding plate 31 and the second feeding plate 32 are respectively fixedly connected to the power belt 21. By controlling the forward or reverse rotation of the motor, the first feeding plate 31 and the second feeding plate 32 can move back and forth in a crisscross pattern. During this process, the operator only needs to work with the robotic arm at one end of the support base to check whether the glass sheet is up to standard.
[0024] The first support base 11 and the second support base 12 of this utility model are provided with a plurality of guide rails 13. Guide sliders 33 are fixedly provided on the side or bottom of the first support base 11 and the second support base 12, and the guide sliders 33 are slidably connected to the guide rails 13. According to general mechanical knowledge, the first support base 11 and the second support base 12 are used for support. The first support base 11 and the second support base 12 are arranged in parallel. Channel steel can be used, and guide rails 13 are provided. The bottom or side of the first feeding plate 31 and the second feeding plate 32 are generally provided with guide sliders 33, which are slidably connected to the guide rails 13. In this way, under the action of the power belt 21, the two support bases can slide smoothly and alternately.
[0025] The first feeding plate 31 of this utility model is provided with a first material position 311, and the second feeding plate 32 is provided with a second material position 321; in the vertical direction, the first material position 311 and the second material position 321 have the same position and width. See also Figure 3 The first material position 311 and the second material position 321 are in the vertical direction and have the same width. This means that no many parameters need to be adjusted when the robot is gripping or placing the material. Generally, the bottom of the robot is equipped with multiple suction cups to grip the material by adsorption. Therefore, it is only necessary to lower the height appropriately to achieve fast gripping.
[0026] The first material position 311 and the second material position 321 of this utility model are each provided with a plurality of limiting blocks. The first material position 311 and the second material position 321 are used to place glass plates, and the space enclosed by the multiple limiting blocks is used for positioning. Generally, the limiting blocks are made of silicone or synthetic rubber.
[0027] In this invention, both the power belt 21 and the drive wheel 22 are disposed within the groove of the second support base 12. The power belt 21 and drive wheel 22 are existing technologies, typically using synchronous belts. They are mounted within the second support base 12 using an auxiliary mounting bracket to ensure that no motion interference occurs during operation.
[0028] The first support base 11 and the side support plates of the second support base 12 of this utility model are fixedly connected to the power belt 21 via a fixing block 211. The fixing block 211 is used to directly fix the power belt 21 to the first feeding plate 31 or the second feeding plate 32, and its position is changed by dragging during movement. In actual use, limit blocks are also set at appropriate positions within the first support base 11 and the second support base 12 to ensure installation, and limit switches connected to the control system are also provided to further realize automatic control.
[0029] Of course, there may be other embodiments of this utility model. Those skilled in the art can make various corresponding changes and modifications based on this utility model, but these corresponding changes and modifications should all fall within the protection scope of the appended claims.
