AI Technical Summary
[0003]目前,在玻璃板在传递到钢化膜打磨设备内部时,便会利用到上料装置,现有的上料装置大致为依靠吸盘和机械手臂去吸取最顶端的玻璃杯,但是玻璃板挨个堆叠在一起时,玻璃板又较薄,玻璃板与玻璃板之间有时会吸附在一起,使得在吸取时,会一下子提起两个或多个玻璃板,多个玻璃板提起后,便无法进行后续的打磨工作,所以很多设备会在吸料时,先挨个进行分开,确保逐步上料,但是这种设计之后,无疑多了一个单独的分料装置和对应的分料工序,不利于高效工作和装置的简化设计
[0012] By adopting the above solution, this utility model relies on setting a boss at the bottom of the material picking block, so that the corrugated suction cup on the boss is higher than the corrugated suction cups on the other two sides. After picking up the glass plate, the glass plate will be curved, so that the originally attached glass plates can be automatically separated. There is no need to set up a separate material distribution mechanism or add a separate material distribution step. The material is automatically distributed directly during the picking process, which effectively achieves the function of picking up materials one by one.

Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of feeding device technology, and in particular to a feeding device used in tempered glass film polishing equipment. Background Technology
[0002] As we all know, tempered glass screen protectors are protective films applied to mobile phone screens. Structurally, they mainly consist of an outer layer of tempered glass: high-definition glass that has undergone tempering treatment, providing screen protection and impact resistance; a middle layer of plastic or resin: increasing toughness and preventing injury from flying glass shards after breakage; and a bottom adhesive layer: using adhesive to bond to the screen for a secure hold. During the production of tempered glass screen protectors, the initial step is processing the outer tempered glass layer. In addition to cutting the glass sheets, the cut glass sheets are then individually transferred to tempered glass screen protector polishing equipment for further polishing.
[0003] Currently, when glass plates are transferred into tempered glass polishing equipment, a feeding device is used. Existing feeding devices generally rely on suction cups and robotic arms to pick up the top glass cups. However, when glass plates are stacked one by one, and the glass plates are relatively thin, they sometimes stick together. This causes two or more glass plates to be lifted at once during suction, making it impossible to carry out subsequent polishing work. Therefore, many devices separate the glass plates one by one during suction to ensure gradual feeding. However, this design undoubtedly adds a separate material separation device and corresponding material separation process, which is not conducive to efficient operation and simplified device design. Utility Model Content
[0004] In view of the shortcomings of the prior art, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a feeding device that can simultaneously perform material distribution and is used in tempered glass film polishing equipment.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:
[0006] A feeding device for tempered glass film polishing equipment includes a storage base and a truss installed on the tempered glass film polishing equipment. The storage base is provided with at least one storage trough for stacking and storing glass plates. A first linear module driven by a motor is arranged horizontally on the truss. A vertical plate is fixedly installed on the movable seat of the first linear module. A second linear module driven by a motor is arranged on the vertical plate. A picking plate is fixedly installed on the movable seat of the second linear module. The picking plate is provided with picking blocks in number and position corresponding to the storage trough. The picking blocks are provided with vacuum pipes. A boss is provided in the middle of the bottom of the picking block. Corrugated suction cups of the same specification are provided at both ends of the bottom of the picking block and on the boss. The corrugated suction cups are connected to the vacuum pipes through the internal pipes of the picking blocks.

[0020] like Figures 1 to 4As shown in the figure, this embodiment provides a feeding device for tempered glass film polishing equipment, including a storage base 1 and a truss 2 installed on the tempered glass film polishing equipment. The storage base 1 is provided with at least one storage trough 3 for stacking and storing glass plates. A first linear module 4 driven by a motor is arranged horizontally on the truss 2. A vertical plate 5 is fixedly installed on the movable seat of the first linear module 4. A second linear module 6 driven by a motor is arranged on the vertical plate 5. A picking plate 7 is fixedly installed on the movable seat of the second linear module 6. Picking blocks 8 are provided on the picking plate 7, and their number and position correspond to those of the storage trough 3. The picking blocks 8 are provided with a vacuum pipe 9. A boss 10 is provided in the middle of the bottom of the picking block 8. Corrugated suction cups 11 of the same specification are provided at both ends of the bottom of the picking block 8 and on the boss 10. The corrugated suction cups 11 are connected to the vacuum pipe 9 through the internal pipe 12 of the picking block 8.
[0021] In this embodiment, a protrusion 10 is mainly set at the bottom of the material-receiving block 7. Because the protrusion 10 and the corrugated suction cups 11 in other places are of the same specification, the corrugated suction cups 11 on the protrusion 10 will be higher than the other corrugated suction cups 11 due to the height of the protrusion 10. When suctioning material, because they are corrugated suction cups 11, they can be squeezed. The corrugated suction cups 10 on the protrusion 10 will contact the glass plate 100 first. In order to ensure that the other corrugated suction cups 11 also simultaneously suck up the glass plate 100, they will continue to move down. When all the corrugated suction cups 11 have sucked up the glass plate 100, the corrugated suction cups 11 on the protrusion 11 will be compressed to the greatest extent. After being lifted, due to the reaction tendency of the corrugated suction cups 11, they will adaptively recover. Under the effect of the height difference, the glass plate 100 will eventually form an arc shape (e.g., Figure 2 Therefore, even if the glass plate 100 at the bottom and the glass plate 100 at the top are in contact with each other, they will gradually separate during the arc formation process. This achieves simultaneous material picking and dispensing, ensuring that each material is picked up one by one. It should be noted that the angle of curvature of the glass plate will not be too large. To the naked eye, it still appears to be a flat surface. The curvature shown in the attached diagram is only for illustrative purposes and will not actually be so exaggerated.
[0022] Meanwhile, the vacuuming force is connected to the vacuum pump 13 via the vacuum pipe 9 and then evenly distributed to each corrugated suction cup 11. The drive of the mechanism mainly relies on the first linear module 4 and the second linear module 6 to achieve horizontal and vertical movement. Since it is a conventional drive principle, it will not be described in detail in this embodiment.
[0023] Furthermore, in order to successfully and quickly separate the glass plate 100 after it is bent, the storage seat 1 in this embodiment is provided with at least one air nozzle 14 at the opening of the storage tank 3. The air nozzle 14 is connected to an external air pump. That is, after the glass plate 100 is bent, so that there is a gap between the edges of the glass plate 100, the air nozzle 14 is used to blow air into the gap, so that the glass plate 100 can be separated from each other.
[0024] Furthermore, the design of the storage base 1 in this embodiment specifically includes a vertical plate 15 installed on the tempered glass polishing equipment. At least two straight rods 16 are respectively arranged horizontally and vertically on the front end surface of the vertical plate 15. Slider blocks 19 that can slide back and forth along the straight rods 16 are provided on each straight rod 16. The sliders 19 on the horizontally arranged straight rods 16 are connected to each other via a connecting plate 17, and the sliders 19 on the vertically arranged straight rods 16 are connected to each other via another connecting plate 17. A manually lockable pipe clamp 2 is provided on the connecting plate 17. 4. Specifically, the locking can be achieved by using a pipe clamp with a hand-tightened bolt. The pipe clamp 24 is sleeved on the corresponding straight rod 16. Each slider 19 is provided with a movable baffle 18. The front end of the upright plate 15 is also fixedly provided with a fixed baffle 20. The movable baffle 18 is located on the front of the fixed baffle 20 and the upright plate 15 respectively. A support plate 21 is provided between the movable baffle 18 and the fixed baffle 20. The movable baffle 18, the fixed baffle 20 and the support plate 21 form a storage trough 3. The air nozzle 14 is located at the top of the movable baffle 18. During the actual feeding process, the sliders on the horizontal and vertical straight rods 16 are moved by manual pushing, causing the movable baffle 18 to move outward, making the storage tank 3 unfold. Then, the stacked glass plates 100 can be placed on the tray 21. Subsequently, the horizontal and vertical straight rods 16 are gradually driven back, causing the movable baffle 18 to gradually move back, thereby gradually straightening the stacked glass plates. The stacked glass plates are then placed neatly on the tray 21 with the fixed baffle 20 as the calibration point. Then, the movement of the slider 19 is restricted by the locking of the pipe clamp 24.
[0025] Furthermore, to ensure that each glass plate 100 picked up is at the same height, the back of the upright plate 15 in this embodiment is provided with a third linear module 22 that can move repeatedly in the vertical direction and is driven by a motor. The movable seat of the third linear module 22 is connected to the support plate 21. The upright plate 15 is provided with a clearance hole 23 within the movable range of the support plate 21. In this way, each glass plate picked up corresponds to a certain height, so that the glass plates picked up by the corrugated suction cup 11 are all at the same height.
[0026] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the suction force of the corrugated suction cup 11 is provided by the vacuum pump 13. Although the vacuum pump 13 can be set externally, in order to reduce the use of pipelines, the vacuum pump 13 is set on the truss 2. The vacuum pump 13 is connected to the vacuum pipeline 9 through a solenoid valve, so that the vacuum pump 13 can be connected at close range. At the same time, the vacuum pipeline 9 is also connected to a vacuum sensor 101 (pressure transmitter). The function of setting up the vacuum sensor 101 is to detect the vacuum pressure value in real time when the corrugated suction cup 11 picks up the glass plate. When the glass plate is picked up, it is found that the picking action has been completed, but no negative pressure value is detected. Therefore, it can be determined that either the glass plate is broken or there is no glass plate in the storage tank. This characteristic is used to check whether the glass plate is damaged or whether there is still a glass plate in the storage tank 3. This information feedback can be directly fed back to the main control system of the tempered film polishing equipment for subsequent early warning work.
[0027] The above are merely preferred embodiments of this utility model and do not limit the patent scope of this utility model. Any equivalent structural or procedural transformations made based on the description and drawings of this utility model, or direct or indirect applications in other related technical fields, are similarly included within the patent protection scope of this utility model.
