Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of insulating glass production equipment, specifically a fully automatic insulating glass sealing machine. Background Technology

[0002] Insulating glass, with its excellent heat and sound insulation properties, has become an indispensable key material in fields such as construction, home appliances, and transportation. The sealing process of insulating glass determines its sealing effect. If the sealing is not precise or complete, external moisture, dust, and other impurities can easily penetrate into the glass, causing fogging, reduced light transmittance, and seriously affecting its performance and appearance.

[0003] Currently, the industry widely uses horizontal insulating glass sealing machines for sealing operations. During sealing, the operator needs to place the insulating glass to be sealed stably on a moving frame with wheels. Then, the operator needs to manually push the moving frame to send the glass to one side of the sealing head. At this time, the sealing head starts and moves along the edge of the glass to complete the sealing operation on one side of the glass. After sealing one side, since the moving frame cannot be automatically turned, the operator needs to manually pull the moving frame and then manually rotate the glass together with the moving frame. After the rotation adjustment is completed, the operator needs to push the moving frame again to send the glass to one side of the sealing head, and repeat the above sealing process until the sealing operation on all sides of the glass is completed.

[0004] However, the existing horizontal insulating glass sealing machine has revealed several problems in actual production: First, the sealing efficiency is low. The entire sealing process relies on repeated manual pushing and rotating of the moving frame. Each piece of glass requires multiple manual interventions, making continuous and efficient sealing impossible. This severely restricts the overall production capacity of the production line when dealing with large-sized, heavy insulating glass units. Second, the labor intensity is high. Operators need to continuously move, push, and rotate the glass and the moving frame, resulting in prolonged periods of high-intensity physical labor. This not only easily leads to operator fatigue and increases the risk of work-related injuries but also reduces operational accuracy due to fatigue, further affecting the sealing quality. Therefore, we propose a fully automatic insulating glass sealing machine to solve the problems mentioned above. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a fully automatic insulating glass sealing machine to solve the problems mentioned in the background art. The existing horizontal sealing machine relies on repeated manual pushing and rotating of the moving frame, which requires multiple manual interventions and cannot operate continuously and efficiently. This is especially true for large-size and heavy glass, which seriously restricts production capacity. The manual labor intensity is high, and operators need to continuously carry, push and rotate, which easily leads to fatigue, increases the risk of work-related injuries, and affects the sealing quality due to the decrease in operating accuracy.

[0006] This utility model provides the following technical solution: A fully automatic insulating glass sealing machine includes a frame and a sealing machine body located at the top of one side of the frame. A glass sealing conveyor and a conveying rotating component for rotating the glass are provided on the front side of the sealing machine body. A sealing anti-displacement limiting component is provided on the top side of the sealing machine body near the glass sealing conveyor. The conveying rotating component includes a conveying component and a rotating component. The conveying component includes a conveying frame and two sets of conveying wheels located on both sides of the conveying frame and driven by a motor. Each set of conveying wheels is connected to the other by a conveyor belt.

[0007] Preferably, the rotating component is located parallel between the two sets of conveying wheels. The rotating component includes a rotating lifting crossbar and an electric telescopic rod coaxially connected to both ends of the rotating lifting crossbar. Each electric telescopic rod has a limit plate connected to its output end. The inner wall of the limit plate is provided with a rotating limit groove. A lifting cylinder is vertically connected to the bottom center of the rotating lifting crossbar. The bottom of the lifting cylinder is fixed to the bottom inner wall of the conveying frame through a rotating table.

[0008] Preferably, the outer walls on both sides of the middle of the rotating lifting crossbar are symmetrically connected with supporting crossbars, and the supporting crossbars and the rotating lifting crossbars form a cross support structure. Flexible support pads are evenly distributed on the top of the supporting crossbars and the rotating lifting crossbars. The flexible support pads are made of wear-resistant silicone material and are used to buffer and support the bottom of the glass and prevent scratches.

[0009] Preferably, the sealing anti-displacement limiting component includes an electric guide rail module vertically installed on the front side of the top of the sealing machine body and a sliding block slidably disposed on the electric guide rail module. The outer wall of the sliding block is connected to a telescopic cylinder, and the bottom output end of the telescopic cylinder is connected to a fixed plate. At least two pneumatic limiting suction cups are evenly distributed on the bottom of the fixed plate, and the pneumatic limiting suction cups are connected to an external vacuum generator through a high-pressure air pipe.

[0010] Preferably, the glass sealing conveyor is equipped with a glass positioning sensor on the side away from the sealing machine body. The glass positioning sensor is electrically connected to the drive motor of the conveyor wheel and the control module of the rotating component, and is used to trigger the conveyor to stop and rotate commands after the glass is in place.

[0011] Preferably, protective silicone is adhered in the rotation limiting groove of the limiting plate. The thickness of the protective silicone is 3mm to 5mm, and the gap between its inner wall and the side of the glass is ≤1mm. This is used for flexible limiting when the glass rotates to avoid edge collision damage.

[0012] This utility model has the following beneficial effects: 1. The glass sealing process described in this application utilizes an automatic glass sealing conveyor, automatic rotation adjustment of the conveyor rotating parts, and precise triggering of the glass positioning sensor, along with the stable fixing of the sealing anti-displacement limiter. The entire process eliminates the need for manual pushing and rotating of the glass, completely replacing the manual intervention process of traditional horizontal sealing machines. It is especially suitable for large-size, heavy insulated glass, significantly shortening the sealing cycle of a single piece of glass and increasing the overall production capacity of the production line.

[0013] 2. The automated conveying, rotating and limiting structure eliminates the high-intensity physical labor of operators in handling and flipping glass, reduces fatigue and work-related injury risks caused by long-term operation, and avoids the impact of fluctuations in the precision of manual operation on the sealing quality, thus ensuring production stability.

[0014] 3. The flexible support pad of the cross support structure and the protective silicone in the rotating limiting groove provide all-round buffering against glass contact impact from bottom support to side limiting, effectively avoiding scratches and collision damage to the glass edges; the pneumatic suction cup of the sealing anti-displacement limiting component fixes the glass by vacuum adsorption, preventing the glass from shifting during the sealing process, ensuring accurate sealing trajectory and complete glue line, and reducing problems such as fogging and reduced light transmittance caused by poor sealing.

[0015] 4. Adjustable components such as electric guide rail modules, telescopic cylinders, and electric telescopic rods can adapt to the sealing requirements of insulating glass of different sizes; the linkage between sensors and control modules realizes intelligent process control, providing support for large-scale and standardized production, and meeting the requirements of modern industrial refined management.

Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0021] All devices in this application adopt conventional models in the prior art, and the control method is through a controller. The control circuit of the controller can be implemented by simple programming by those skilled in the art, which is common knowledge in the field, so this application will not explain it in detail.

[0022] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 3As shown, a fully automatic insulating glass sealing machine includes a frame 1 and a sealing machine body 2 located at the top of one side of the frame 1. A glass sealing conveyor 3 and a conveying rotating component 4 for rotating the glass are located at the front of the sealing machine body 2. A sealing anti-displacement limiting component 5 is located at the top of the sealing machine body 2 near the glass sealing conveyor 3. By integrating conveying, rotating, and limiting functional modules, the fully automatic insulating glass sealing machine achieves a fully automated process from glass conveying to multi-side sealing, completely replacing traditional manual operation and significantly improving production continuity. The conveying rotating component 4 includes a conveyor and a rotating component. The conveyor includes a conveyor frame 41 and two sets of conveyor wheels 42 located on both sides of the conveyor frame 41 and driven by a motor. Each set of conveyor wheels 42 is connected by a conveyor belt 43. The motor drives the conveyor wheels 42 to rotate, and the rotation of the conveyor wheels 42, in conjunction with the conveyor belt 43, stably conveys the glass. The conveyor wheels 42 are made of high-strength nylon, and the conveyor belt 43 is made of aging-resistant rubber. The rotating component is located parallel between the two sets of conveyor wheels 42. The rotating component includes a rotating lifting crossbar 44 and an electric motor coaxially connected to both ends of the rotating lifting crossbar 44. The telescopic rod 45 and the rotating lifting crossbar 44 are made of aluminum alloy, which has the advantages of being lightweight and high-strength. The electric telescopic rod 45 uses a stainless steel shell, which is durable and corrosion-resistant. Each electric telescopic rod 45 has a limit plate 46 connected to its output end. The inner wall of the limit plate 46 has a rotating limit groove 47. Protective silicone 471 is pasted inside the rotating limit groove 47 of the limit plate 46. The thickness of the protective silicone 471 is 3mm to 5mm, and the gap between its inner wall and the side of the glass is ≤1mm. This is used for flexible limiting when the glass rotates to avoid edge collision damage. The rotating lifting crossbar 44 is vertically connected to the bottom center of a lifting cylinder 48. The bottom of the lifting cylinder 48 is fixed to the bottom inner wall of the conveyor frame 41 through a rotating table. The lifting cylinder 48 lifts the glass away from the conveyor belt 43. The electric telescopic rod 45 drives the limit plate 46 to clamp the side of the glass, realizing automatic rotation of the angle without manual flipping, which is suitable for multi-side sealing needs. The outer walls on both sides of the middle of the rotating lifting crossbar 44 are symmetrically connected to the support crossbars 49, which are made of aluminum alloy. The support crossbars 49 and the rotating lifting crossbar 44 form a cross support structure. The cross structure evenly distributes the weight of the glass and avoids glass deformation caused by local stress. Flexible support pads 491 are evenly distributed on the top of the support crossbars 49 and the rotating lifting crossbar 44. The flexible support pads 491 are made of wear-resistant silicone material and are used to cushion the bottom of the glass and prevent scratches.

[0023] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the anti-displacement limiting component 5 for sealing includes an electric guide rail module 51 vertically installed on the front top of the sealing machine body 2 and a sliding block 52 slidably mounted on the electric guide rail module 51. A telescopic cylinder 53 is connected to the outer wall of the sliding block 52. A fixed plate 54, made of aluminum alloy, is connected to the bottom output end of the telescopic cylinder 53. At least two pneumatic limiting suction cups 55, made of nitrile rubber, are evenly distributed on the bottom of the fixed plate 54. The pneumatic limiting suction cups 55 are connected to an external vacuum generator via a high-pressure air pipe. The telescopic cylinder 53... The suction cup is raised and lowered. The vacuum suction cup firmly adsorbs the top of the glass through negative pressure, preventing glass displacement during sealing and ensuring continuous and accurate glue lines. A glass positioning sensor is installed on the side of the glass sealing conveyor 3 away from the sealing machine body 2. The glass positioning sensor is electrically connected to the drive motor of the conveyor wheel 42 and the control module of the rotating parts. It is used to detect when the glass is in place and trigger the conveying pause and rotation commands. It automatically detects whether the glass is conveyed in place and triggers the conveying pause and rotation commands to realize the automated linkage of conveying, positioning, rotation and sealing, reducing human judgment errors.

[0024] It should be noted that the control equipment's workflow is as follows: the sensor detects the glass is in place – the signal is transmitted to the main controller – the main controller sends a command to the conveyor motor to stop conveying, and simultaneously starts the lifting cylinder 48 to lift the glass; after lifting to the correct position – the main controller controls the electric telescopic rod 45 to drive the limit plate 46 to clamp the glass, and then the rotary table motor drives the glass to rotate to a preset angle; after rotation is complete – the lifting cylinder 48 resets, the conveyor motor starts to send the glass to the sealing position – the main controller controls the electric guide rail to move the suction cup above the glass, the telescopic cylinder 53 drives the suction cup to descend and uses the vacuum generator to adsorb the glass; during the sealing process – the main controller synchronously controls the sealing head to move, and after completion, releases the suction cup, repeating the above process until all sides are sealed.

[0025] Workflow: Initially, the glass to be sealed is placed on the conveyor rotary component 4. The conveyor rotary component 4 transports the glass to the glass sealing conveyor 3. The motor drives the glass to be transported to the sealing machine body 2 for sealing on one side. After sealing on one side is completed, the glass sealing conveyor 3 reverses, reversing the glass on the glass sealing conveyor 3 and transporting it back to the conveyor rotary component 4. The glass positioning sensor on the conveyor rotary component 4 detects that the glass has reached its position, triggering a conveying pause. The lifting cylinder 48 is activated, and the glass is lifted off the conveyor belt through the cross support structure. 43; The electric telescopic rod 45 drives the limiting plate 46 to clamp the side of the glass. The rotating table at the bottom of the rotating lifting crossbar 44 drives the glass to rotate to the side to be sealed. The lifting cylinder 48 resets, and the glass is placed back on the conveyor belt 43. The conveyor belt 43 sends the glass to the sealing position on the glass sealing conveyor 3. The pneumatic suction cup of the sealing anti-displacement limiting component 5 descends and adsorbs the top of the glass. The sealing head of the sealing machine body 2 completes the sealing on one side along the edge of the glass. Repeat the steps to complete the sealing operation on all sides of the glass. No manual intervention is required throughout the process.

[0027] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model. It should be noted that for those skilled in the art, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the technical principles of the present utility model, and these improvements and modifications should also be considered within the protection scope of the present utility model.
