Description

Method for glass flexible patching by using glass spacer automatic patching machine TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the field of high-end equipment, in particular to a method for glass patching by using high-end equipment. BACKGROUND

[0002] After a process of flat glass deep processing is completed, the glass is unloaded onto a glass rack, and a spacer is needed to be pasted on the surface of the glass to prevent the surface of the glass from being scratched and adhered during the next time of taking the glass.

[0003] In the early stage, the glass spacers are all pasted manually. In the last two years, some domestic companies have introduced automatic patching machines. The working mode of the automatic patching machines is to directly press and paste the glue particles (hereinafter referred to as "glue particles") of the glass spacers on the surface of the glass in the form of roller pressing. At present, the thickness of the flat glass for deep processing has many specifications such as 3mm, 4mm, 5mm, 6mm, 8mm, 10mm, 12mm, 14mm, 16mm, 20mm and the like, and the same model and thickness of the glass also has an error of ±0.2mm. The spacing between the glue particles and the pressing roller mechanism and the glass needs to be controlled very accurately, otherwise the glue particles cannot be pasted firmly, the glue particles are jammed during transmission, and the glass is pressed and injured. Moreover, the glass thickness is very sensitive, and the glass of different thicknesses needs to be adjusted in time. During the patching, the feeding and the pressing and pasting need to be performed in sequence, and the feeding speed must be matched with the transmission speed of the glass. SUMMARY

[0004] In order to solve the problems in the prior art, the present application provides a method for glass flexible patching by using a glass spacer automatic patching machine. The glass spacer automatic patching machine comprises a bottom film recycling wheel, a glue particle and bottom film stripping mechanism, a material receiving suction cup, an indexing rotating mechanism, a patching cylinder and a patching suction cup.

[0005] The method for glass flexible patching by using the glass spacer automatic patching machine comprises the following steps:

[0006] Step 1: conveying and stripping the glue particles and the bottom film of the glass spacer;

[0007] The glue particle strip passes through the glue particle and bottom film stripping mechanism to complete the separation of the glue particles and the bottom film, and the glue particles are sent to the material receiving suction cup, and the bottom film is wound and recycled by the bottom film recycling wheel;

[0008] Step 2: adsorbing the glue particles;

[0009] The indexing rotating mechanism is provided with at least two stations: a feeding station and a patching station. The feeding station is the material receiving suction cup, and the patching station is the patching suction cup. The internal cavity of the indexing rotating mechanism is connected with a vacuum pump to be in a negative pressure vacuum state. When the glue particles are conveyed to the material receiving suction cup, the glue particles will be adsorbed on the material receiving suction cup;

[0010] Step 3: the glue particles are pressed on the glass surface;

[0011] When the patch is pasted, the patch cylinder extends, the connection between the bottom patch suction cup and the internal vacuum cavity of the indexing rotary mechanism is blocked, the internal vacuum degree of the patch suction cup is destroyed, and compressed air is injected into the internal patch suction cup to convert the negative pressure in the internal patch suction cup into positive pressure; the suction cups on the indexing rotary mechanism are flexible suction cups, which are compressed and contracted under negative pressure, and are quickly converted from the compressed and contracted state to the expanded and extended state when the internal patch suction cup is injected with positive pressure, so as to push the suction cups to push the glue particles adsorbed on the suction cups out and press them on the glass surface;

[0012] Step 4: the indexing rotary mechanism performs work position conversion;

[0013] After the patching is completed, the patch cylinder is retracted, the internal compressed air is closed, the internal patch suction cup is quickly converted from positive pressure to negative pressure, the suction cup is retracted, the indexing rotary mechanism is rotated, and one work position conversion is completed;

[0014] After the work position conversion is completed, the feeding mechanism repeats the above-mentioned action of feeding to the receiving suction cup.

[0015] As a further improvement of the present application, the glass spacer automatic patching machine further comprises a lower guide strip, a first guide wheel assembly, a second guide wheel assembly, an upper guide strip and a glue particle conveying transmission wheel. In step 1, the glue particle strip is sent from the gap between the lower guide strip and the first guide wheel assembly to the head, and then to the gap between the upper guide strip and the glue particle conveying transmission wheel. The glue particle conveying transmission wheel is driven by a stepping motor. The second guide wheel assembly is an auxiliary guide for the transmission of the glue particle strip.

[0016] As a further improvement of the present application, the indexing rotary mechanism further comprises a transition suction cup. The transition suction cup: after feeding, rotates, and waits for the patching position.

[0017] As a further improvement of the present application, the indexing rotary mechanism further comprises a standby suction cup. The standby suction cup: after patching, rotates, and waits for the feeding position.

[0018] As a further improvement of the present application, the indexing rotary mechanism is three work positions, four work positions, six work positions or eight work positions.

[0019] As a further improvement of the present application, the indexing rotary mechanism is four work positions, which is a four-indexing rotary mechanism.

[0020] As a further improvement of the present application, when the glass spacer automatic patching machine is a horizontal patching machine, the direction of the patch cylinder is downward, and the four work positions of the four-indexing rotary mechanism are respectively: a receiving suction cup, a patching suction cup, a transition suction cup and a standby suction cup. The transition suction cup: after feeding, rotates 90° and waits for the patching position. The standby suction cup: after patching, rotates 90° and waits for the feeding position.

[0021] As a further improvement of the present application, the glass partition pad automatic paster is a vertical paster, the paster cylinder is in horizontal direction, the four stations of the four-position indexing mechanism are: a receiving suction cup, a paster suction cup and two standby material suction cups, the standby material suction cup: after pasting, the station is rotated by 90 degrees to wait for feeding.

[0022] As a further improvement of the present application, the glass partition pad pasting is intermittent pasting after setting a spacing distance, the glue particle transmission and rotation transmission are completed in the interval time of waiting for the glass to run, and the pasting action is completed instantaneously when the glass reaches the pasting position.

[0023] As a further improvement of the present application, the air floating type flexible suction cup telescopic stroke can be adjusted.

[0024] The beneficial effects of the present application are:

[0025] The present application adopts a non-contact flexible pasting technology, the instant of glue particle pasting is to push the glue particle to be pasted on the glass surface by the air floating type suction cup, the glass partition pad pasting is intermittent pasting after setting a spacing distance, the glue particle transmission and rotation transmission are completed in the interval time of waiting for the glass to run, and the pasting action can be completed instantaneously when the glass reaches the pasting position. The glue particle transmission and pasting are separated, no roller or other transmission components are needed to contact the glass, for various glasses with a common glass thickness change within 20mm, automatic pasting can be realized without adjusting the machine, and the glass surface is not scratched.

[0026] The key technical points of the present application are:

[0027] Through the indexing mechanism (preferably a four-station rotary switching mechanism), the feeding and pasting actions are separated (the glue particle transmission and the glue particle pasting are separated); the glue particle transmission is stable and reliable; the glue particle transmission and the station conversion are completed in the interval of the glass running, the two stations work synchronously in time, time is saved, and the pasting efficiency is improved; in space, the feeding and pasting actions are separated and work independently, the glass is not scratched, and flexible pasting is realized.

[0028] The glue particle is adsorbed by negative pressure, the station conversion and glue particle transmission are completed, then the cylinder blocks the negative pressure cavity, and the compressed gas is quickly filled in, which destroys the negative pressure adsorption and pushes out the glue particle together with the flexible suction cup, so that the glue particle is firmly pasted on the glass; the air floating type flexible suction cup telescopic stroke is 25mm, and the machine can be used for glasses with a thickness change within 20mm without adjusting the gap between the machine and the glass.

[0029] The air floating type flexible suction cup pastes the glue particle, fully utilizes the softness of the flexible telescopic suction cup, and ensures firm pasting and no damage to the glass. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF DRAWINGS

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0055] The application will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0056] Referring to FIGS. 1A and 1B, the method for automatically patching glass flexible patch using a glass spacer is as follows:

[0057] Step 1: Conveying and stripping glass spacer rubber particles and bottom film;

[0058] Glass spacer particles and the bottom film are in the form of strips (particle strips 70) and are fed into the head from the gap between the lower guide strip 102 and the first guide wheel assembly 103, and then to the gap between the upper guide strip 105 and the particle conveying drive wheel 106, which is driven by a stepping motor. The second guide wheel assembly 104 is an auxiliary guide for the particle strip transmission. The particle strip passes through the particle and bottom film peeling mechanism 107, separates the particles from the bottom film, and feeds the particles to the receiving suction cup 108. The bottom film is wound and recycled by the bottom film recycling wheel 101.

[0059] Step 2: adsorb the particles;

[0060] The internal cavity of the quarter-turn rotation mechanism 109 is connected to a vacuum pump to create a negative pressure vacuum state. When the particles are conveyed to the receiving suction cup 108, they will be adsorbed on it.

[0061] Step 3: press the particles against the glass surface;

[0062] In Figure 1B, the quarter-turn rotation mechanism 109 is a four-station indexing rotation mechanism, only two stations are necessary: the feeding station and the patching station.

[0063] As shown in Figure 2, the whole machine is a horizontal patching machine, and the patching cylinder 110 is downward. The four stations of the quarter-turn rotation mechanism 109 (indexing rotation mechanism) are: the receiving suction cup 108 (feeding station), the patching suction cup 111 (patching station), the transition suction cup 112, and the standby suction cup 113. The transition suction cup 112: after feeding, it is rotated by 90° to wait for patching. The standby suction cup 113: after patching, it is rotated by 90° to wait for feeding.

[0064] As shown in Figure 3A, Figure 3B and Figure 3C, the whole machine is a vertical patching machine, and the patching cylinder 110 is in the horizontal direction. The four stations of the quarter-turn rotation mechanism 109 are: the receiving suction cup 108 (feeding station), the patching suction cup 111 (patching station), and the standby suction cup 113. The standby suction cup 113: after patching, it is rotated by 90° to wait for feeding.

[0065] The indexing rotation mechanism can have four stations, three stations, six stations, or eight stations, and the four-station is the preferred scheme of the present application.

[0066] As shown in Figure 2 and Figure 3A, when the patch is attached, the patch cylinder 110 is extended, blocking the connection between the bottom patch suction cup 111 and the vacuum cavity inside the quadrant rotation mechanism 109, destroying the vacuum inside the patch suction cup 111, while rapidly injecting compressed air into the patch suction cup 111, converting the negative pressure inside the patch suction cup 111 into positive pressure. The suction cups on the quadrant rotation mechanism 109 are flexible suction cups that are compressed when under negative pressure. When the patch suction cup 111 is injected with positive pressure, the suction cups quickly change from the compressed state to the expanded state, pushing the suction cups to push the adhesive particles attached to the suction cups out and press them onto the glass surface.

[0067] Step 4: The quadrant rotation mechanism performs work position conversion;

[0068] After the patch is completed, the patch cylinder 110 is retracted, the internal compressed air is turned off, the patch suction cup 111 quickly changes from positive pressure to negative pressure, the suction cup is retracted, the quadrant rotation mechanism 109 is rotated by 90°, and a work position conversion is completed.

[0069] After the work position conversion is completed, the feeding mechanism repeats the above-mentioned feeding to the receiving suction cup action.
