The glass panel pick-up device is shown in Fig. 2, and it comprises a shell cover 2, and this shell cover 2 is constituted with a chassis 21 and a side wall 22, and this side wall 22 is arranged around this chassis 21, and on the A tank chamber 23 is formed in the side wall 22, and the tank chamber 23 has an opening 231 on the opposite side of the chassis 21. A sealing ring 24 is disposed around, and the material of the sealing ring 24 in this embodiment is silicone resin, and the sealing ring 24 can be set on the attachment surface 11 around the rubber pad 12 . In this embodiment, the housing 2 can be combined with a robot arm 25 to control the displacement of the housing 2 through the robot arm 25 .

As shown in Figures 2 to 3, the chassis of this embodiment is provided with a first suction nozzle 3 and a plurality of second suction nozzles 4, and the first suction nozzle 3 and each of the second suction nozzles 4 are connected to a negative pressure generator (not shown in the figure), the first suction nozzle 3 and each of the second suction nozzles 4 can generate a negative pressure in the tank chamber 23, wherein each of the second suction nozzles 4 is in accordance with the present embodiment The glass panel 13 is evenly distributed on the chassis 21 in the area where the rubber pad 12 is positioned, and the second suction nozzles 4 of this embodiment are arranged in a matrix. In this embodiment, one end of each of the second suction nozzles 4 in the tank chamber 23 has a telescopic sleeve 41 , and the telescopic sleeve 41 can produce a folded retracted state when the glass panel 13 is sucked.

And the above-mentioned glass panel pick-up device, its pick-up glass panel method is, when this glass panel 13 is placed on this rubber pad 12, through the operation of a mechanical arm 25, to this shell cover 2 with its opening 231 One side of the rubber pad 12 is covered on the attachment surface 11, and the sealing ring 24 is attached to the attachment surface 11 around the rubber pad 12, and the rubber pad 12 and the glass panel 13 on the rubber pad 12 are placed on the In the tank chamber 23, the first suction nozzle 3 generates a negative pressure in the tank chamber 23 within a first time by starting the negative pressure generator. It is preset to end after the first suction nozzle 3 generates negative pressure for 4 seconds, and when the first time arrives, the glass panel 13 can be slightly separated from the rubber pad 12 as shown in FIG. 4 , Now make each second suction nozzle 4 replace the first suction nozzle 3 to generate a negative pressure in the tank chamber 23 within a second time, which is preset in this embodiment as the second time The first suction nozzle 3 starts after the first 1.5 seconds of negative pressure, and continues to suck after the first suction nozzle 3 generates negative pressure for 4 seconds and stops, so that the glass panel 13 is directed towards each of the second suction nozzles 4, and as shown in Figure 5, the place on the right side in Figure 4 that is closer to the second suction nozzle 4 is first sucked up by the second suction nozzle 4 provided there, and then sequentially as shown in Figure 6 Suction the whole piece of glass panel 13 to the surroundings, then the glass panel 13 can be picked up and taken away from the rubber pad 12 as shown in FIG. 7 . If the glass panel 13 is to be put down, as long as the negative pressure generated by each of the second suction nozzles 4 is released, the glass panel 13 can be released.

It is not difficult to find the advantages of the present invention from the above description, which is that a shell 2 is used to cover the glass panel 13, and the first suction nozzle 3 and each of the second suction nozzles 4 are used to alternately suck up the glass panel 13, here During the action process, because it is not necessary to blow the high-pressure gas between the glass panel and the rubber pad and then hold it by hand as in the usual way, only one operator can complete it, so that the glass The picking operation of the panel 13 during the grinding process is more convenient.

Of course, there are still many examples of the invention in which only the details vary. Please refer to Fig. 8 and Fig. 9, which is the second embodiment of the present invention, wherein, the main difference from the first embodiment is that the chassis 21A of the housing 2A is positioned in the region of the rubber pad 12 according to the glass panel 13 A plurality of suction nozzles 4A that can generate a negative pressure in the chamber 23A are evenly distributed, and each of the suction nozzles 4A is also connected to a negative pressure generator (also not shown in the figure), and each of the suction nozzles 4A is connected to a negative pressure generator (not shown in the figure). The suction nozzles 4A can all be displaced synchronously in the chamber 23A in the vertical direction of the chassis 21A.

In this embodiment, the chassis 21A has a hollow conduit 211A at the place where each suction nozzle 4A is located, and each suction nozzle 4A has a guide rod 42A passing through the conduit 211A at the corresponding position, And one end of each of the guide rods 42A is exposed outside the housing 2A and is connected by a connecting piece 5 to move synchronously. One end in the tank chamber 23A is connected with the connecting member 5 by a driving member 6 and drives the suction nozzles 4A to move synchronously.

As shown in Figures 9 to 10, the main difference between the method for picking up the glass panel in this embodiment and the first embodiment is that the glass panel 13 is placed on the rubber pad 12 in the manner of the first embodiment, and The housing 2A is also covered, so that the rubber pad 12 and the glass panel 13 on the rubber pad 12 are placed in the tank chamber 23A, and at this time, each suction nozzle 4A is activated by the negative pressure generator. A negative pressure is generated in the tank chamber 23A, and at the same time, each of the suction nozzles 4A is displaced toward the glass panel 13. The negative pressure generated by each of the suction nozzles 4A during the displacement process toward the glass panel 13 makes the suction nozzles 4A move toward the glass panel 13. The closeness between the glass panel 13 and the rubber pad 12 is slightly separated. At this time, each of the suction nozzles 4A continues to generate negative pressure in the chamber 23A, so that the glass panel 13 is drawn toward the direction of each of the suction nozzles 4A. Suction, similarly, the position closer to the suction nozzle 4A can be first sucked by the suction nozzle 4A provided there, and then sequentially sucked up around the whole glass panel 13 to pick up the glass panel 13 And take it away from the rubber pad 12 to achieve the same effect as the first embodiment.

The disclosure of the above-mentioned embodiments is used to illustrate the present invention, not to limit the present invention, so any changes in numerical values or replacement of equivalent elements should still fall within the scope of the present invention.

From the above detailed description, those skilled in the art can understand that the present invention can indeed achieve the aforementioned purpose, and has met the requirements of the patent law, so a patent application is filed.
