Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of glass edging, specifically, it relates to a glass protection device for a glass edging machine. Background Technology
[0002] During the production of photovoltaic glass, scratches occur when the glass is rotated in the A-machine edge grinding machine. The reason for the scratches is that when the glass is edged in the A-machine, the glass surface has glass powder and grinding wheel shavings (carborundum). After leaving the A-machine, the glass passes through the rotating table and makes a 90-degree turn. The glass powder and carborundum on the glass surface fall onto the rollers of the rotating table. As the moisture evaporates, the glass powder and carborundum crystallize and scratch the glass. Scratches caused by glass powder crystallization occur frequently in batches, and it is difficult to find the abnormal point during processing, which increases processing time and reduces product output.
[0003] To address the aforementioned issues, patent application number 2021223443546 provides a cleaning mechanism for an edge grinding machine and an edge grinding machine itself. The cleaning mechanism, mounted on the frame of the edge grinding machine, includes a liquid path, an air path, and a nozzle. The nozzle comprises a housing, a liquid inlet, an air inlet, a gas-liquid mixing channel, and a spray nozzle. The liquid path is connected to the liquid inlet, the air path is connected to the air inlet, and the gas-liquid mixing channel is connected to the liquid inlet, air inlet, and spray nozzle. The spray nozzle faces the guide rail of the edge grinding machine. However, this design fails to solve the aforementioned problems.
[0004] Therefore, in order to improve or solve at least one of the above problems, a glass protection device for a glass edging machine is provided, which can keep the glass moist as it passes through the turntable, wash away glass powder and diamond grit on the lower surface of the glass and the rollers of the roller conveyor, and effectively prevent scratches on the glass surface.

[0018] The specific embodiments of the present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings, in order to help those skilled in the art to have a more complete, accurate and in-depth understanding of the inventive concept and technical solution of the present invention, and to facilitate its implementation.
[0019] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of the spray pipe in an embodiment of this utility model; Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of the connection of the water circulation unit in an embodiment of this utility model.
[0020] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the glass protection device for the glass edging machine provided by this utility model is installed on the roller conveyor of the edging machine's turntable. It includes a spray pipe 10 and a water circulation unit 20 connected to the spray pipe 10. The end of the spray pipe 10 is connected to the roller conveyor support. The spray pipe 10 can keep the lower surface of the glass moist. The water circulation unit 20 can continuously provide water for the spray pipe 10 to ensure that the glass passes through the turntable in a moist state. It can also wash away glass powder and diamond grit on the lower surface of the glass and the roller conveyor rollers, thereby effectively preventing scratches on the glass surface, reducing the number of downtime treatments, and helping to increase product output.
[0021] like Figure 1 As shown, the spray pipe 10 is a hollow cylindrical tube closed at both ends. The spray pipe 10 is provided with spray holes 11, including first spray holes 111 and second spray holes 112. The first spray holes 111 are evenly arranged on the spray pipe 10, corresponding to the positions of the rollers on the roller conveyor. The second spray holes 112 are evenly arranged on the spray pipe 10, corresponding to the lower surface of the glass. A row of first spray holes 111 and a row of second spray holes 112 are arranged parallel to each other on the spray pipe 10. The first spray holes 111 and the second spray holes 112 are provided with nozzles, so that the spray pipe 10 can spray the lower surface of the glass and the rollers on the roller conveyor, keeping the lower surface of the glass moist and washing away the glass powder and diamond grit on the lower surface of the glass and the rollers on the roller conveyor.
[0022] like Figure 2As shown, the water circulation unit 20 includes a water collection tank 21, a circulation pipe 22, and a circulation pump 23. The water collection tank 21 is located below the spray pipe 10 and can collect the water sprayed out by the spray pipe 10 during the spraying operation. The water collection tank 21 is located below the roller conveyor of the turntable. The bottom of the water collection tank 21 is provided with a drain outlet 211.
