Peeling Apparatus for Display Glass Separation
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
The existing methods for manufacturing display devices face inefficiencies in separating and discharging multiple stacked glass members and films, which hinders the production process and requires manual intervention, increasing the risk of operator safety hazards and reducing productivity.
Innovation Solution
A peeling apparatus is designed with a water tank, a stage, a peeling member, and a discharge preventing block, where the peeling process is performed in a water-filled environment, allowing for automated separation and discharge of stacked glass members and films by rotating the peeling member to peel off each component sequentially, with the discharge preventing block ensuring only the topmost member is removed at a time.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Productivity
If manual separation methods are used for stacked glass members, then operator control is maintained, but productivity is reduced and safety hazards increase
Solution Approach 1:
The system enables automated self-service separation where the peeling member automatically peels off glass members one by one from the stacked state without requiring manual intervention. The discharge preventing block works in conjunction with the peeling member to automatically control the separation process, allowing the system to serve itself in the separation task.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent replaces manual mechanical separation with an automated mechanical system consisting of a peeling member and discharge preventing block. This substitution eliminates the need for operator hands-on separation while maintaining controlled separation through the coordinated action of these mechanical components.
2Productivity
If automated peeling is implemented, then productivity increases, but device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The automated peeling system is segmented into distinct functional components: a peeling member for the peeling action and a discharge preventing block for controlling the separation. This segmentation allows each component to perform a specific function, simplifying the overall design while achieving automated operation.
Solution Approach 2:
The discharge preventing block acts as an intermediary component between the peeling member and the stacked glass members. It mediates the separation process by preventing premature discharge of glass members while allowing controlled peeling, thus simplifying the control mechanism needed for automated operation.
3Speed
If multiple glass members are separated simultaneously, then processing speed increases, but control precision decreases
Solution Approach 1:
The peeling member peels off glass members in a periodic sequence rather than simultaneously. Each glass member is peeled one by one in succession, allowing controlled separation while maintaining efficient processing speed through continuous periodic action.
Solution Approach 2:
The discharge preventing block is positioned in advance to prepare for the separation process. It pre-establishes the control mechanism that will regulate each peeling action, ensuring precision is maintained before each glass member is actually separated.

AI summary
A peeling apparatus includes a water tank, a stage disposed in the water tank, a peeling member disposed above the stage, and a discharge preventing block disposed in the water tank and disposed outside the stage, wherein a height of the discharge preventing block is greater than a height of the stage.
