Description

Technical Field

[0001] The embodiments disclosed herein relate to the technical field of tempered glass processing, and more specifically, to a glue applicator for tempered glass installation. Background Technology

[0002] In the fields of building curtain walls and window and door manufacturing, tempered glass installation requires applying sealant (such as structural adhesive or weather-resistant adhesive) to the four edges to achieve sealing, waterproofing, and fixation. The uniformity and efficiency of the sealant application directly determine the installation quality and construction progress. With the trend towards larger and lighter tempered glass, the requirements for the adaptability and efficiency of sealant application equipment have significantly increased. However, traditional sealant application machines for tempered glass installation generally suffer from the significant drawback of inconvenience when changing glass edges. Because sealant needs to be applied to all four edges of the glass, the equipment must repeatedly adjust the glass position or move the sealant application mechanism, resulting in low overall sealant application efficiency and severely restricting the construction pace.

[0003] Traditional glue applicators often use a fixed worktable or a unidirectional glue applicator arm structure. If the glass is fixed on the worktable, after one side is glued, the glass needs to be manually pushed to rotate and switch sides. Large-sized glass requires multiple people to operate together, which is not only labor-intensive, but also prone to causing misalignment of glue joints and uneven glue width due to glass displacement. If the glue applicator arm is moved to switch sides, the arm stroke adjustment is complicated, and glue breakage and glue accumulation are prone to occur at the corners, resulting in defective products.

[0004] Therefore, developing a sealant applicator for tempered glass installation that can easily achieve glass edge replacement and improve the efficiency of sealant application on all four sides has become an urgent need for the industry to improve quality and efficiency. Utility Model Content To overcome the above-mentioned defects, the embodiments of this disclosure provide a sealant applicator for tempered glass installation, which solves the technical problem that traditional sealant applicators for tempered glass installation are generally inconvenient for changing the glass edges.

[0005] According to one aspect, at least one embodiment of this disclosure provides a sealant applicator for tempered glass installation, comprising: A base plate and uprights, wherein the uprights are fixed to the base plate; A loading / unloading conversion assembly is disposed on the base plate and the column; A horizontal frame and a glue applicator are provided, wherein the horizontal frame is horizontally fixed to the front of the column, and the glue applicator is mounted on the horizontal frame. The loading and unloading conversion assembly includes a movable frame, which is connected to the front of the column via a horizontal linear drive. A fixed frame is horizontally fixedly connected to the front of the column. A telescopic cylinder is vertically fixedly connected to both the top of the movable frame and the bottom of the fixed frame. A connecting frame is provided at the output end of the telescopic cylinder, and a bearing plate is provided on the connecting frame.

[0006] As a further technical solution, an air cavity is provided inside the bearing plate, and air intake holes are provided on the surface of each pair of bearing plates. A transmission seat is provided on each of the connecting frames, and the bearing plate is horizontally rotatably mounted on the transmission seat.

[0007] As a further technical solution, a drive motor is installed inside the connecting frame, and the output end of the drive motor is connected to the bearing plate. A pair of stabilizing cylinders are vertically installed on each connecting frame, and a stabilizing block is provided at the output end of the stabilizing cylinder.

[0008] As a further technical solution, a pair of upright plates are provided at one end of the base plate surface, and several support rollers are rotatably connected between the upright plates, with the upper end of each support roller being higher than the top of the upright plate.

[0009] As a further technical solution, the glue application assembly includes a pair of synchronous frames, which are connected to the cross frame by a horizontal synchronous linear drive, and each synchronous frame is connected to a slide by a horizontal linear drive.

[0010] As a further technical solution, a glue box is provided on the outside of the slide block, a connecting nozzle is provided on the top of the glue box, a control valve is installed on the connecting nozzle, and glue application nozzles are provided on the side end face of the glue box.

[0011] As a further technical solution, the dispensing nozzle has a rectangular flat structure, and both the upper and lower ends of the side end face of the dispensing nozzle are provided with slots.

[0012] As a further technical solution, the surface of the bearing plate is made of rubber.

[0013] The beneficial effects of the embodiments disclosed herein are as follows: In this disclosure, the loading and unloading conversion component solves the problems of inconvenient and inefficient edge-changing in traditional glue-applying machines through automated adsorption and rotation edge-changing design. The negative pressure adsorption of the glass by the support plate achieves damage-free fixation, and the drive motor precisely rotates the glass 90° without manual flipping, preventing glass displacement or damage. The stabilizing block, combined with the adsorption, forms a double fixation, ensuring glass stability during glue application. Support rollers assist in automatic loading and unloading, reducing manual intervention. This structure significantly shortens edge-changing time, is suitable for large-size tempered glass, ensures smooth glue application on all four sides, improves overall work efficiency, reduces manual labor intensity and safety risks, and provides a foundation for precise glue application during subsequent installation.

[0016] The present disclosure will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the present disclosure and are not intended to limit the scope of the disclosure.

[0022] like Figures 1-5 As shown, it illustrates a tempered glass mounting sealant applicator according to an embodiment of the present disclosure, comprising: The base plate 1 and the column 2 are fixed on the base plate 1; Loading / unloading conversion assembly 4 is disposed on the base plate 1 and the column 2; The horizontal frame 3 and the glue application component 5 are provided. The horizontal frame 3 is horizontally fixed to the front of the column 2, and the glue application component 5 is provided on the horizontal frame 3. The loading / unloading conversion assembly 4 includes a movable frame 4-1, which is horizontally linearly driven and connected to the front of the column 2. A fixed frame 4-13 is horizontally fixedly connected to the front of the column 2. Telescopic cylinders 4-2 are vertically fixedly connected to both the top of the movable frame 4-1 and the bottom of the fixed frame 4-13. A connecting frame 4-3 is provided at the output end of the telescopic cylinder 4-2. A bearing plate 4-4 is provided on the connecting frame 4-3. An air chamber 4-5 is formed inside the bearing plate 4-4. Suction holes 4-6 are formed on the surfaces of both bearing plates 4-4. Each connecting frame 4-3 is equipped with... A transmission seat 4-7 is provided, and the bearing plate 4-4 is horizontally rotatably mounted on the transmission seat 4-7. A drive motor 4-8 is installed inside the connecting frame 4-3, and the output end of the drive motor 4-8 is connected to the bearing plate 4-4. A pair of stabilizing cylinders 4-9 are vertically mounted on the connecting frame 4-3, and a stabilizing block 4-10 is provided at the output end of the stabilizing cylinder 4-9. A pair of upright plates 4-11 are provided at one end of the surface of the base plate 1, and several support rollers 4-12 are rotatably connected between the upright plates 4-11. The upper horizontal height of the support rollers 4-12 is higher than the top of the upright plates 4-11.

[0023] In some examples, to achieve clamping and fixing of the assembled tempered glass, 90° rotation for edge switching to facilitate glue application, and automatic unloading after glue application, adapting to the need for multi-sided glue application before tempered glass installation, a loading and unloading conversion component 4 was designed. The front of the column 2 of this component is connected to a moving frame 4-1 via a horizontal linear drive, which can slide horizontally along the column 2 and correspond vertically to the fixed frame 4-13 fixed on the front of the column 2. The telescopic cylinders 4-2 at the top and bottom of both can drive the connecting frame 4-3 to rise and fall vertically, thereby adjusting the distance between the bearing plate 4-4 and the glass to adapt to the gripping needs of glass of different thicknesses.

[0024] An air chamber 4-5 is opened in the bearing plate 4-4 on the connecting frame 4-3. The air chamber 4-5 is connected to an external negative pressure device through an air pipe. The suction holes 4-6 on the surface of the bearing plate 4-4 are evenly distributed. When the bearing plate 4-4 is attached to the glass surface, the negative pressure causes the suction holes 4-6 to adsorb the glass, thereby achieving non-damaging fixation of the glass and avoiding the breakage of the glass edge caused by traditional mechanical clamping.

[0025] The carrier plate 4-4 is horizontally rotated and mounted on the transmission seat 4-7 of the connecting frame 4-3. The output end of the drive motor 4-8 inside the connecting frame 4-3 is connected to the carrier plate 4-4. When the motor is started, it can drive the carrier plate 4-4 to rotate around the transmission seat 4-7, accurately achieving a 90° rotation for edge switching. This allows the unsealed side of the glass to turn towards the sealing component 5, eliminating the need for manual glass flipping and ensuring operational safety and conversion efficiency.

[0026] A pair of stabilizing cylinders 4-9 on the connecting frame 4-3 are symmetrically distributed on both sides of the bearing plate 4-4. The stabilizing block 4-10 at the output end is made of elastic material. After the glass is adsorbed and fixed, the stabilizing cylinder 4-9 pushes the stabilizing block 4-10 to adhere to the glass, forming a double fixation of adsorption and mechanical limitation, preventing displacement when the glass rotates or is glued. A pair of upright plates 4-11 on one end of the surface of the base plate 1 provide rotational support for the support roller 4-12. The support roller 4-12 is connected to the upright plate 4-11 through bearings, and its upper end is horizontally higher than the top of the upright plate 4-11. After the glue is applied, the moving frame 4-1 and the fixed frame 4-13 drive the glass to move above the support roller 4-12. The telescopic cylinder 4-2 descends to make the glass fall onto the support roller 4-12. The support roller 4-12 rotates to transport the glass downstream, realizing automatic unloading and avoiding glass collision damage caused by manual handling.

[0027] During operation, the telescopic cylinder 4-2 drives the bearing plate 4-4 to adsorb and fix the glass, and the stabilizing cylinder 4-9 assists in limiting the position; the drive motor 4-8 drives the glass to rotate 90° to change sides in conjunction with the application of glue; after the glue is applied, the moving frame 4-1 moves the glass to the support roller 4-12, and the support roller 4-12 conveys the glass for unloading.

[0028] Adsorption and fixation ensure no damage, rotation adjustment enables edge switching, and the conveying structure completes automatic material unloading. All components work together to meet the loading, unloading, and switching requirements for glass adhesive application.

[0029] like Figures 1-5 As shown in the figure, the glue applicator 5 in this embodiment includes a pair of synchronous frames 5-1. The synchronous frames 5-1 are connected to the cross frame 3 by a horizontal synchronous linear drive. Each synchronous frame 5-1 is connected to a slide block 5-2 by a horizontal linear drive. A glue box 5-3 is provided on the outside of the slide block 5-2. A connecting nozzle 5-4 is provided on the top of the glue box 5-3. A control valve 5-5 is installed on the connecting nozzle 5-4. A glue applicator nozzle 5-6 is provided on the side end face of the glue box 5-3.

[0030] In some examples, to achieve simultaneous application of adhesive to both sides of tempered glass, avoiding the inefficiency of applying adhesive to only one side, and ensuring consistent adhesive thickness and uniformity on both sides, adapting to the precision and efficiency requirements of tempered glass installation, an adhesive application component 5 was designed. This component includes a pair of synchronous frames 5-1 connected by a horizontal synchronous linear drive within a crossbeam 3, which can move synchronously along the length of the crossbeam 3, ensuring that the two synchronous frames 5-1 always maintain a symmetrical spacing, adapting to the adhesive application needs of glass of different widths; a slide 5-2 connected by a horizontal linear drive within the synchronous frames 5-1 can slide laterally along the synchronous frames 5-1, further fine-tuning the distance between the adhesive box 5-3 and the glass side, ensuring that the adhesive nozzle 5-6 can accurately fit the adhesive application position on the glass, avoiding adhesive layer offset or missed application.

[0031] The glue box 5-3 outside the slide block 5-2 is used to store glass glue. The connecting nozzle 5-4 on the top of the glue box 5-3 is connected to the external glue supply equipment through a hose to continuously replenish the glass glue to the glue box 5-3. The control valve 5-5 on the connecting nozzle 5-4 is controlled by a solenoid valve to precisely adjust the flow rate of glass glue, avoiding waste due to excessive glue or affecting the sealing effect due to insufficient glue. At the same time, it can quickly cut off or start the glue flow when starting or stopping the glue application to prevent glue dripping and contaminating the glass. The glue applicator 5-6 on the side end of the glue box 5-3 adopts a flat or pointed structure, which can be selected according to the glue application needs. When the glue applicator 5-6 is in contact with the side of the glass, the glue flows out evenly from the nozzle to form a continuous and flat glue layer.

[0032] During operation, the synchronous linear drive moves the synchronous frame 5-1 to the corresponding positions on both sides of the glass, and the slide 5-2 finely adjusts the distance between the glue applicator 5-6 and the glass. The control valve 5-5 is opened, and the external glue supply device supplies glue to the glue box 5-3. The glue applicator 5-6 is in contact with the side of the glass, and the synchronous frame 5-1 moves the glue box 5-3 along the side of the glass, achieving simultaneous glue application on both sides. After glue application is complete, the control valve 5-5 is closed, and the slide 5-2 and synchronous frame 5-1 return to their original positions. The synchronous drive ensures synchronicity on both sides, the dual-nozzle glue application improves efficiency, and flow control ensures accuracy. The coordinated operation of all components achieves efficient and precise glue application on both sides of the glass, meeting installation requirements.

[0033] For example, such as Figure 4 As shown, the glue applicator 5-6 has a rectangular flat structure, and the glue applicator 5-6 has a slot 6 at both the upper and lower ends of its side end face.

[0034] In some examples, the applicator nozzle 5-6 has a rectangular, flat structure with inlets 6 at both the top and bottom of its side surface. This rectangular, flat structure allows the adhesive to flow from the nozzle 5-6 in a uniformly wide, flat layer, meeting the requirements for flatness and coverage during tempered glass installation, thus avoiding the uneven thickness of the adhesive layer caused by traditional round nozzles. The inlets 6 at both ends precisely fit the upper and lower surfaces of the glass edge, ensuring that the adhesive layer simultaneously covers both the glass edge and part of the surface, enhancing the seal and adhesion after installation.

[0035] For example, such as Figure 1 As shown, the surface of the bearing plate 4-4 is made of rubber.

[0036] In some examples, the surface of the support plate 4-4 is made of rubber. Rubber has excellent elasticity and sealing properties. When the support plate 4-4 adsorbs glass, the rubber surface can tightly adhere to the glass surface, enhancing the sealing effect of the air chamber 4-5, ensuring stable adsorption force at the suction port 4-6, and preventing the glass from falling off during rotation or movement. At the same time, the rubber material is soft and non-slip, preventing direct hard contact between the support plate 4-4 and the glass surface from causing scratches. It is especially suitable for smooth tempered glass, effectively protecting the glass's appearance.

[0037] In practical use: After placing the tempered glass on the support plate 4-4, activate the horizontal linear drive of the moving frame 4-1 to bring it close to the fixed frame 4-13. The telescopic cylinder 4-2 pushes the connecting frame 4-3 down, and the support plate 4-4 adheres to the glass surface. The air chamber 4-5 generates negative pressure, which adsorbs the glass through the suction hole 4-6. The stabilizing cylinder 4-9 drives the stabilizing block 4-10 to clamp the glass from both sides. Next, adjust the glue application assembly 5. The synchronous frame 5-1 moves along the cross frame 3 to both sides of the glass. The slide 5-2 fine-tunes the position of the glue box 5-3 so that the glue nozzle 5-6 adheres to the side of the glass. Open the control valve 5-5, and the external glue supply device supplies glue to the glue box 5-3. The synchronous frame 5-1 drives the glue nozzle 5-6 to move along the side of the glass to complete the double-sided glue application. After one side is glued, the drive motor 4-8 drives the support plate 4-4 to rotate 90° to switch sides of the glass. Repeat the glue application operation until all four sides are glued. After the glue application is completed, the telescopic cylinder 4-2 lifts the glass, and the moving frame 4-1 moves the glass back above the support roller 4-12. The negative pressure is released, and the glass falls onto the support roller 4-12. The entire process of loading and unloading, edge changing, and glue application is fully automated.
