[0024] All terms used in this disclosure have the same meaning as understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this disclosure pertains, unless otherwise specifically defined. It should also be understood that terms defined in general dictionaries should be interpreted as having meanings consistent with their meanings in the context of the relevant art, and not as idealized or highly formalized, unless expressly defined herein.

[0025] Techniques, methods, and equipment known to those skilled in the art may not be discussed in detail, but where appropriate, they should be considered part of the specification.

[0026] To address the technical problem in existing technologies where a vibrating motor connected to a wiping head reciprocates across a cleaning cloth to wipe stains on the surface of glass panels, resulting in unstable operation, poor precision, and unstable amplitude, which can easily lead to glass breakage during wiping, this disclosure provides a glass panel wiping device that operates stably and can reduce the glass breakage rate.

[0027] like Figure 1 As shown, the glass panel product 10 is in a moving state in the production line. A cleaning cloth 20 is provided above the glass panel product 10. The cleaning cloth 20 is a dust-free cloth with a certain degree of elasticity that can deform. It moves along the glass panel product 10. Figure 1 They move synchronously in the direction indicated by the middle arrow. For example... Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, the glass panel product wiping device provided in this disclosure includes: two racks 1, which are arranged side by side and opposite each other above the moving glass panel product 10, with the length direction of the racks 1 perpendicular to the moving direction of the glass panel product 10; a gear 2, which is located between and meshes with the two racks 1, and can rotate to drive the two racks 1 to reciprocate in opposite directions along their lengths; a rotary motor 7, which can drive the gear 2 to rotate forward and backward, causing each rack 1 to reciprocate above the glass panel product 10; and a wiping head 3, which is connected below the racks 1 and abuts against the top of a cleaning cloth 20, causing the cleaning cloth 20 to reciprocate against the upper surface of the glass panel product 10. The movement of the wiping head 3 causes deformation of the contact portion between the cleaning cloth 20 and the wiping head 3, wiping away stains on the upper surface of the glass panel product 10. The rotary motor 7 is preferably a servo motor as in the prior art, and the output end of the servo motor is connected to the gear 2 and continuously changes its rotation direction, causing the wiping head 3 to move slightly. Multiple wiping heads 3 can be arranged along the length of the rack 1 to cover the entire width of the glass panel product 10 during movement. The wiping heads 3 under the two racks 1 move in opposite directions, causing the cleaning cloth 20 to clean the portions of the glass panel product 10 in opposite directions. Because the movement amplitude of the wiping heads 3 is very small and the cleaning cloth 20 has a certain degree of elasticity, the cleaning cloth 20 can be twisted and deformed under the action of the wiping heads moving in different directions without shifting above the glass panel product 10.

[0028] Through the above technical solution, the glass panel product wiping equipment provided in this disclosure can clean the surface of glass panel products. Due to the smooth operation and stable output of the rotary motor itself, as well as the precise transmission ratio, compact structure and stable operation of the gear transmission method, the amplitude generated by the wiping head of the wiping equipment of this application is stable and not easy to deviate, and it will basically not cause damage to the glass panel products, resulting in a low product damage rate.

[0029] In some embodiments, the glass panel product wiping device further includes a guide 4, such as... Figure 2 As shown, the guide member 4 is arranged along the length direction of the rack 1 and connected to the rack 1, allowing the rack 1 to reciprocate along the length direction of the guide member 4. The guide member 4 guides the movement direction of the rack 1, ensuring that the movement of the rack 1 is not deviated and is smoother.

[0030] In some embodiments, such as Figure 2As shown, the guide member 4 includes two guide rails 41 and a slider 42. The two guide rails 41 correspond one-to-one with the two racks 1 and are arranged parallel to the racks 1. One end of the slider 42 is slidably connected to the guide rail 41, and the other end is connected to the corresponding rack 1. Thus, the rack 1 can move smoothly along the length direction on the guide rail 41 via the slider 42 without deflection. In other alternative embodiments, the guide member 4 can be a linear bearing.

[0031] In some embodiments, the glass panel product wiping device further includes a mounting base 5, on which a rack 1 and a gear 2 are mounted, such as... Figure 1 As shown, the mounting base 5 is a frame used to install and fix the rack 1 and gear 2, and to facilitate observation of the operation of each component.

[0032] In some embodiments, the mounting base 5 is provided with a base plate 51, and the base plate 51 has an elongated hole 511 along the length direction of the rack 1. The rack 1 and the gear 2 are located above the base plate 51, and the wiping head 3 is located below the base plate 51. A vertical connecting rod 6 is provided on the bottom surface of the rack 1, and the connecting rod 6 passes through the elongated hole 511 and connects to the wiping head 3. Figure 2 As shown, the guide rail 41 is also mounted on the base plate 51, so that the rack 1 is stably mounted on the mounting base 5. It can be understood that the mounting base 5 can also be set as a hollow shell with holes in the base plate, through which the wiping head 3 extends out of the mounting base 5, and all components are set in the mounting base 5. This arrangement can effectively prevent external contaminants from entering, extend service life, and reduce the risk of accidental contact by operators.

[0033] In some embodiments, such as Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, the mounting base 5 includes a rotary motor mounting plate 52, which is connected to the frame of the mounting base 5. The rotary motor 7 is mounted on the rotary motor mounting plate 52, which is used to install and fix the rotary motor 7.

[0034] In some embodiments, the glass panel product wiping device further includes a second driving member 8, which can drive the wiping head 3 to rise and fall, adjust the tightness between the wiping head 3 and the cleaning cloth 20, and adjust the cleaning force of the cleaning cloth 20 on the surface of the glass panel product 10 by adjusting the tightness; it can also adjust the distance between the wiping head 3 and the cleaning cloth 20, change the height of the wiping head 3, and make the cleaning device of this application applicable to glass panel products 10 of different thicknesses.

[0035] In some embodiments, the glass panel product wiping device further includes a frame 9, a second drive member 8 fixed to the frame 9, and an output end indirectly connected to the wiping head 3. For example... Figure 1In one embodiment of the output, the mounting base 5 is provided with a top plate, and the output end of the second driving member 8 is connected to the top plate of the mounting base 5. The second driving member 8 can be an electric cylinder or a pneumatic cylinder in the prior art, which can drive the mounting base 5 to rise and fall to adjust the height of the wiping head 3.

[0036] In some embodiments, such as Figure 1 As shown, the cleaning cloth 20 is provided with winding components 30 at both ends. The winding components 30 can release and wind up the cleaning cloth 20. The winding components 30 are configured to release the cleaning cloth 20 above the glass panel product 10, so that the cleaning cloth 20 moves with the glass panel product 10 to the bottom of the cleaning head 3 to clean the upper surface of the glass panel product 10. After cleaning, the winding components 30 wind up the cleaning cloth 20 above the glass panel product 10, so that the glass panel product 10 is released.

[0037] In some embodiments, a cleaning cloth 20 is also provided below the glass panel product 10. The winding assembly 30 includes an upper winding member and a lower winding member. The upper winding member can release and wind up the cleaning cloth 20 above the glass panel product 10, and the lower winding member can release and wind up the cleaning cloth 20 below the glass panel product 10, so that the cleaning cloth 20 below follows the... Figure 1 The glass panel product 10 is moved in the direction of movement, while simultaneously being dragged by the gravity of the glass panel product 10 and the friction between it and the glass panel product 10. It is understood that in other alternative embodiments, the glass panel product 10 may also be conveyed by a conveyor belt.
