Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of glass cleaning technology, specifically a glass stacking device for glass cleaning. Background Technology
[0002] Before undergoing deep processing such as mirror making, vacuum coating, tempering, hot bending, and insulated glass assembly, the glass surface generally needs to be cleaned. After the glass is cleaned in a special cleaning machine, it is stacked to facilitate subsequent processes.
[0003] In existing technologies, there are two main ways to place glass after cleaning: horizontal stacking and vertical leaning. While horizontal stacking saves space, it is necessary to strictly avoid hard objects between the glass panes and the number of stacked layers should not be too large to prevent the bottom glass from being crushed due to excessive pressure. While vertical leaning avoids the risk of breakage caused by horizontal stacking, it still requires manual fixation of the top and bottom sides of the glass to prevent it from tipping over. In addition, there is a lack of suitable adjustable placement racks for glass of different thicknesses.
[0004] Therefore, this utility model provides a glass stacking device for glass cleaning. Utility Model Content
[0005] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this invention provides a glass stacking device for glass cleaning. While horizontal stacking saves space, it requires strict avoidance of hard objects between glass panes and limits the number of layers to prevent excessive pressure on the bottom panes, which could cause them to crack. Vertical stacking avoids the breakage risk associated with horizontal stacking, but still requires manual support at the top and bottom sides to prevent tipping. Furthermore, there is a lack of adaptable, self-adjustable racks for glass of varying thicknesses.
[0006] The technical solution adopted by this utility model to solve its technical problem is as follows: The glass stacking device for glass cleaning of this utility model includes a fixed frame, in which multiple placement racks are uniformly fixed, the placement racks are inclined, a hanging rail is provided above the fixed frame, a movable seat is slidably connected to the hanging rail, a winch is fixedly installed on the movable seat, and a manipulator is fixedly connected to the winch by a rope. The placement rack is U-shaped, and multiple sets of mounting blocks are symmetrically fixed on the placement rack. A sponge roller is provided between each set of mounting blocks, a rotating shaft is fixedly connected to the center of the sponge roller, a slider is slidably connected to the inner side of the mounting block, the end of the rotating shaft is rotatably connected to the slider, a spring is fixedly connected between the slider and the inner side wall of the mounting block, and a buffer assembly is provided at the bottom of the placement rack.
[0007] Preferably, the buffer assembly includes a buffer plate and a second spring. The bottom inner side of the placement frame has a placement groove, and the buffer plate is slidably connected in the placement groove. The buffer plate is made of rubber. Multiple support rods are evenly fixed to the bottom of the buffer plate. The bottom end of the support rod extends into the bottom inner cavity of the placement frame and is slidably connected to the bottom inner cavity of the placement frame. The support rod is inverted T-shaped, and a second spring is sleeved on the support rod. The two ends of the second spring are fixed to the bottom of the buffer plate and the top of the placement groove, respectively.
[0008] Preferably, a set of mounting slots is provided on both sides of the top of the placement rack, and a second rotating shaft is rotatably connected in one set of mounting slots. A scraper is fixedly connected to the second rotating shaft. The scraper is made of rubber. A torsion spring is fixedly connected between the second rotating shaft and the inner wall of the mounting slot. The two scrapers are in an inverted V-shape.
[0009] Preferably, the opposite end faces of the two scrapers are provided with multiple arc-shaped protrusions, and the bottom of the scraper near the arc-shaped protrusions is an arc-shaped surface.
[0010] Preferably, guide plates are fixed to both sides of the top of the placement rack, and the top of the opposite side end faces of the two guide plates are arc-shaped.
[0011] Preferably, the guide plate is provided with a plurality of opening slots, which are adapted to the robotic arm.
[0012] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:
[0013] 1. The glass stacking device for glass cleaning described in this utility model has elastically sliding sponge rollers on both sides of the inclined U-shaped placement frame, so that glass of different thicknesses can be clamped and fixed by the sponge rollers on both sides after sliding into the placement frame. This can not only prevent the glass from breaking due to accidental tipping, but also self-adjust for glass of different thicknesses.
[0014] 2. The glass stacking device for glass cleaning described in this utility model can greatly reduce the impact generated when the bottom of the glass descends through the rubber buffer plate, achieving a gentle placement effect and preventing the glass from breaking due to excessive impact caused by the winch controlling the robot arm to descend at too high a speed.

Detailed Implementation
[0023] To make the technical means, creative features, objectives and effects of this utility model easier to understand, the present utility model will be further described below in conjunction with specific embodiments.
[0024] like Figures 1 to 6 As shown, the glass stacking device for glass cleaning according to this utility model includes a fixed frame 1, a plurality of placement racks 2 are uniformly fixed inside the fixed frame 1, the placement racks 2 are inclined, a hanging rail 3 is provided above the fixed frame 1, a movable seat 4 is slidably connected to the hanging rail 3, a winch 5 is fixedly installed on the movable seat 4, and a robot arm 6 is fixedly connected to the winch 5 by a rope. The placement rack 2 is U-shaped, and a plurality of sets of mounting blocks 7 are symmetrically fixed on the placement rack 2. A sponge roller 10 is provided between each set of mounting blocks 7. A rotating shaft 9 is fixedly connected to the center of the sponge roller 10. A slider 8 is slidably connected to the inner side of the mounting block 7. The end of the rotating shaft 9 is rotatably connected to the slider 8. A spring 11 is fixed between the slider 8 and the inner side wall of the mounting block 7. A buffer assembly is provided at the bottom of the placement rack 2.
[0025] This application takes into account that most glass cleaning equipment, after cleaning the glass, uses hoisting equipment to place it in an open area of the factory for resting. During this resting process, the glass is either stacked horizontally or leaned diagonally against a shelf. The first method, horizontal stacking, can greatly reduce the space occupied by the glass, but care must be taken to ensure that there are no small hard objects such as sand between the stacked glass to avoid breakage due to the huge compressive stress generated when the glass comes into contact. Furthermore, the number of stacked layers must not be too large to prevent the bottom glass from bearing excessive pressure and breaking. The second method, vertically leaning the glass, although to a certain extent... While significantly reducing the risk of glass breakage when stacked horizontally, it also requires workers to block or secure the top and bottom sides of the glass when it is placed at an angle to prevent it from slipping or tipping over. This greatly increases the workload of workers. Furthermore, there is a lack of adjustable tilting fixtures for glass of different thicknesses. Therefore, this application provides elastically sliding sponge rollers 10 on both sides of the tilted U-shaped placement rack 2. This allows glass of different thicknesses to be clamped and secured by the sponge rollers 10 after sliding into the placement rack 2. This not only prevents the glass from breaking due to accidental tipping but also allows for self-adjustment for glass of different thicknesses.
[0026] During operation, the operator uses the movable seat 4 sliding on the overhead rail 3 in conjunction with the winch 5 and the robotic arm 6 to clamp and fix glass of different thicknesses. This is existing technology and will not be described in detail. The cleaned glass can slide into the placement rack 2 from the top. During the process of the operator assisting the glass to slide into the placement rack 2, the robotic arm 6 does not release the fixation of the glass. When the glass comes into contact with the sponge roller 10, it first squeezes the sponge roller 10, causing the sponge roller 10 to drive the rotating shaft 9 and the slider 8 to slide in the mounting block 7 and compress the spring 11. The elastic potential energy stored in the spring 11 can clamp and fix the glass, and it is convenient to self-adjust the fixation of glass of different thicknesses. Through the rotational cooperation of the rotating shaft 9 and the slider 8, the sponge roller 10 can rotate when the glass slides down and squeezes the sponge roller 10, which can not only reduce the friction with the glass surface, but also wipe the glass surface.
[0027] The buffer assembly includes a buffer plate 13 and a second spring 15. The bottom inner side of the placement frame 2 is provided with a placement groove 12. The buffer plate 13 is slidably connected in the placement groove 12. The buffer plate 13 is made of rubber. Multiple support rods 14 are evenly fixed to the bottom of the buffer plate 13. The bottom end of the support rod 14 extends into the bottom inner cavity of the placement frame 2 and is slidably connected to the bottom inner cavity of the placement frame 2. The support rod 14 is inverted T-shaped. A second spring 15 is sleeved on the support rod 14. The two ends of the second spring 15 are fixed to the bottom of the buffer plate 13 and the top of the placement groove 12, respectively.
[0028] During operation, when the bottom of the glass slides to the bottom of the placement rack 2 and comes into contact with the buffer plate 13, the rubber buffer plate 13 can greatly reduce the impact generated when the bottom of the glass falls, achieving a gentle placement effect and preventing the winch 5 from causing the glass to break due to excessive speed during the descent of the robotic arm 6.
[0029] It should be noted that the buffer plate 13 is perpendicular to the inner wall of the placement groove 12. That is, when the glass is placed against the placement rack 2, the upper surface of the buffer plate 13 is in full contact with the bottom of the glass without any gaps. This avoids the glass being in line contact with the buffer plate 13 when it is placed, which would cause excessive compressive stress on the side of the glass that is in contact with the bottom. When the glass contacts the buffer plate 13 and causes the buffer plate 13 to slide down, the support rod 14 slides down and contracts accordingly, and the second spring 15 is compressed. The second spring 15 set on the support rod 14 further improves the buffering effect of the buffer plate 13 on the glass.
[0030] The top two sides of the placement rack 2 are provided with a set of mounting slots 17. A rotating shaft 18 is rotatably connected in the set of mounting slots 17. A scraper 16 is fixedly connected to the rotating shaft 18. The scraper 16 is made of rubber. A torsion spring 19 is fixedly connected between the rotating shaft 18 and the inner wall of the mounting slot 17. The two scrapers 16 are in the shape of an inverted V.
[0031] The two scrapers 16 are provided with multiple arc-shaped protrusions on their opposite end faces, and the bottom of the scraper 16 near the arc-shaped protrusions is an arc-shaped surface.
[0032] This application also considers that the surface of the glass after it has just been cleaned is usually covered with water droplets. Simply placing it at an angle and letting it drip off naturally is slow, and the presence of water droplets can easily cause the glass to slip during placement. Therefore, by providing elastically rotating scrapers 16 on both sides of the top of the placement rack 2, the glass will first come into contact with the scrapers 16 after sliding into the placement rack 2, so that the scrapers 16 can easily remove the water droplets attached to the glass surface.
[0033] During operation, when the glass slides into the placement rack 2 and comes into contact with the scraper 16, the glass first pushes against the scraper 16, causing the scraper 16 to drive the rotating shaft 18 to rotate. At the same time, the torsion spring 19 stores energy, and the rubber scraper 16 can wipe the glass surface it passes over, removing water droplets adhering to the glass surface. Through the arc-shaped surface provided on the scraper 16, the glass will first contact the arc-shaped surface when it comes into contact with the scraper 16, avoiding wear on the glass surface. Through the arc-shaped protrusions provided on the scraper 16, it is easier to improve the wiping effect of the scraper 16 on the glass.
[0034] Guide plates 20 are fixed to both sides of the top of the placement rack 2, and the top of the opposite side end faces of the two guide plates 20 are arc-shaped.
[0035] The guide plate 20 is provided with a plurality of opening slots 21 evenly distributed, and the opening slots 21 are adapted to the robot arm 6.
[0036] This application further considers that the initial stage of glass placement into the placement rack 2 requires manual guidance, which is quite cumbersome. Therefore, guide plates 20 are provided on both sides of the top of the placement rack 2 to facilitate the glass's initial entry into the placement rack 2. The arc-shaped surface on the guide plate 20 can reduce wear between the guide plate 20 and the glass. The opening slot 21 on the guide plate 20 ensures that the robot arm 6 will not collide with the guide plate 20 when the glass is almost completely inside the placement slot 12, so that the robot arm 6 can release the glass only after it is completely placed in the placement rack 2.
[0037] Working principle: Workers, using a sliding seat 4 on the overhead rail 3 in conjunction with a winch 5 and a robotic arm 6, can slide the cleaned glass from the top of the placement rack 2 along the guide plate 20. During the process of assisting the glass into the placement rack 2, the robotic arm 6 does not release the glass from its fixation. When the glass slides into the placement rack 2 and contacts the scraper 16, the glass first pushes against the scraper 16, causing the scraper 16 to drive the rotating shaft 18 to rotate. Simultaneously, the torsion spring 19 stores energy, and the rubber scraper 16 wipes the surface of the glass, removing any residue adhering to the glass surface. Water droplets are removed. When the glass continues to slide down and comes into contact with the sponge roller 10, the sponge roller 10 is squeezed first, causing the sponge roller 10 to drive the rotating shaft 9 and the slider 8 to slide within the mounting block 7 and compress the spring 11. The elastic potential energy stored in the spring 11 can clamp and fix the glass. When the glass comes into contact with the buffer plate 13 and drives the buffer plate 13 to slide down, the support rod 14 slides down and retracts, and the spring 15 is compressed. The spring 15 set on the support rod 14, together with the rubber buffer plate 13, can buffer the glass and complete the placement of the glass.
