Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of glass processing equipment, specifically a novel display panel handling mechanism. Background Technology

[0002] With the rapid development of display technology, the manufacturing process of display panels (especially glass panels) is becoming increasingly precise and automated. Cleaning is a crucial step in the panel manufacturing process, used to remove contaminants from the panel surface. However, after cleaning, trace amounts of cleaning solution often remain on the panel surface.

[0003] Currently, many production lines still rely primarily on manual operation for panel handling between the washing machine exit and the next process. Operators manually remove glass panels from the washing machine's conveyor belt and place them on designated workstations or racks.

[0004] This manual handling process is slow and cannot keep pace with high-speed cleaning machines and other automated equipment. The entire process requires manual intervention, and the larger the glass panel size, the higher the labor intensity of manual handling, easily leading to operator fatigue and injury. In particular, due to cleaning fluid residue, the operator's hands are in direct contact with the glass panel surface during manual handling, which not only contaminates the glass surface but also makes it easy to slip, causing the panel to crack.

[0022] The adjusting device 4 includes an adjusting rod 41 and an adjusting cylinder 42. The adjusting rod 41 is connected to the output shaft of the adjusting cylinder 42, and the adjusting cylinder 42 can drive the adjusting rod 41 to move up and down. The transport structure 5 includes a suction cup 51, an air nozzle 52, and a suction cup mounting plate 53. The suction cup 51 is mounted on the suction cup mounting plate 53, and the air nozzle 52 is located on the outside of the suction cup 51.

[0023] In this embodiment, the moving track 2 includes a transverse track 21 and a longitudinal track 22. The transverse track 21 is installed on the top of the support frame 1, and the longitudinal track 22 is installed on the transverse track 21 and can be moved by the transverse track 21.

[0024] In this embodiment, the mounting plate 3 is mounted on the longitudinal track 22.

[0025] The transverse track 21 is laid along the top of the support frame 1; the longitudinal track 22 is installed on the transverse track and can slide laterally; the mounting plate 3 is fixed to the end of the longitudinal track.

[0026] The horizontal and vertical tracks work together to enable the transport structure 5 to move at any position in the horizontal plane, precisely connecting the outlet of the cleaning machine with the inlet of the next process, and matching the high-speed cleaning cycle.

[0027] In this embodiment, the mounting plate 3 is provided with a slot plate 31, and the slot plate 31 is provided with a guide slot.

[0028] In this embodiment, the adjusting rod 41 is slidably mounted in the guide slot on the slot plate 31.

[0029] In this embodiment, the adjusting rod 41 is provided with a connecting block 411, the output shaft of the adjusting cylinder 42 is connected to the connecting block 411, and the adjusting cylinder 42 is fixedly installed on the slot plate 31.

[0030] The slot plate 31 is provided with a guide slot, and the adjusting rod 41 is slidably installed therein; the adjusting cylinder 42 is fixed to the slot plate, and the output shaft drives the adjusting rod to rise and fall vertically through the connecting block 411.

[0031] The adjusting cylinder 42 drives the adjusting rod 41 to rise and fall along the guide slot, precisely adjusting the distance between the suction cup 51 and the glass, so that the suction cup 51 can be attached to the display panel without manual intervention.

[0032] The guide slot constraint adjustment rod 41 can only move vertically, which avoids shaking during gripping and ensures the stability of handling.

[0033] In this embodiment, the suction cup 51 is mounted on the rotating plate 511, and the rotating plate 511 is mounted on the suction cup fixing plate 53 via a mounting shaft. A damping washer is provided between the mounting shaft and the suction cup fixing plate 53.

[0034] In this embodiment, the suction cup fixing plate 53 is mounted on the servo plate 54, the servo plate 54 is rotatably mounted on the end of the adjusting rod 41, and a servo 55 is provided between the servo plate 54 and the adjusting rod 41.

[0035] The suction cup 51 is mounted on the rotating plate 511. The rotating plate is connected to the suction cup fixing plate 53 through the mounting shaft, and a damping washer is provided between the shafts. The suction cup fixing plate 53 is mounted on the servo plate 54, and the servo 55 drives the servo plate 54 to rotate.

[0036] The air nozzle 52 is located on the outside of the suction cup and is connected to the vacuum generator and the compressed air source. The airflow reaches the surface of the display panel to remove any residual cleaning fluid, break up the local liquid film, improve the adsorption force, and solve the problem of adsorption failure caused by residual cleaning fluid.

[0037] The rotating plate 511 allows the suction cup 51 to swing in order to obtain a better suction position.

[0038] Servo motor 55 drives servo plate 54 to rotate 90°, actively causing suction cup fixing plate 53 to stand up, allowing cleaning fluid that may drip onto the plate surface to flow out through gravity, thus preventing the cleaning fluid from contaminating suction cup 51.

[0039] Working principle: Includes the following steps: 1. Positioning and Preparation Phase The transverse track 21 and the longitudinal track 22 of the moving track 2 work together to drive the transport structure 5 to move to the panel, ensuring that the center of the suction cup 51 is aligned with the geometric center of the panel; The adjusting cylinder 42 drives the adjusting rod 41 to move vertically along the guide slot, and the suction cup 51 is close to the panel surface.

[0040] 2. Adsorption stage The air nozzle 52 starts a high-pressure airflow and continues to spray for 0.5-2 seconds to disperse the residual cleaning fluid in the contact area of ​​the suction cup 51; Suction cup 51 synchronously starts the vacuum generator to adsorb onto the panel surface.

[0041] 3. Handling and Placement Stage Adjusting cylinder 42 moves adjusting rod 41, and panel moves as suction cup 51 grips it; moving track 2 drives conveying structure 5 to move at a uniform speed to the top of the next process material rack; The guide slot constraint adjustment rod 41 moves only vertically to prevent the panel from shaking.

[0042] 4. Reset and Looping Phase Adjust cylinder 42 adjusts adjustment rod 41 to the initial height; servo motor 55 rotates suction cup 51 back to horizontal position; moving track 2 drives transport structure 5 back to its original position for standby.

[0043] Based on the above, this conveying mechanism, through its air nozzle, suction cup, and servo motor structure, achieves the following: Residual cleaning fluid is removed by high-speed airflow, breaking the liquid film and making the suction cup's adhesion more stable. The suction cups can completely replace manual handling, preventing the cleaned glass panel surface from being contaminated again. The servo motor actively adjusts the suction cup mounting plate to drain any cleaning fluid that may drip onto the plate surface, thus avoiding affecting the suction cup's adsorption effect.
