Abstract

The device for gripping and moving plates (2), particularly glass sheets, from any position to a horizontal position or vice versa, comprises a pivoting arm (6) between two limit positions, one gripping position and a deposit position, and return about a horizontal shaft (7). A carrier frame (8) is hinged about a horizontal shaft (10), at a movable end of the pivoting arm (6). This carrier frame (8) is provided with suction cups (9) for gripping a plate (2). The frame is driven in such a way that, during the motion of the pivoting arm (6) from one limit position to the other, it rotates by an angle smaller than 90` about its hinged pivot (10). The carrier frame (8) is rigidly connected to a guiding bar (15) arranged in a vertical plane in order to provide for a precise and safe displacement. This guiding bar may slide longitudinally in a sleeve (16) capable of pivoting about a horizontal shaft (20) beyond the circle (23) discribed by the pivoting arm (6).

Description

Bezeichnung : Vorrichtung zum Aufnehmen und Umsetzen von Tafeln, insbesondere Glastafeln Description: Device for receiving and moving boards, especially glass boards
Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf eine Vorrichtung zum Aufnehmen und umsetzen von Tafeln, insbesondere Glastafeln, aus einer im wesentlichen vertikalen Lage in eine im wesentlichen horizontale Lage oder umgekehrt, mit einem Sσhwenkarm, der in zwei Endstellungen, nämlich in eine Aufnahmestellung und in eine Abgabestellung und zurück, um eine horizontale Achse schwenkbar ist und an dessen ausschwenkbaren Ende ein Tragrahmen um eine horizontale Achse schwenkbar gelagert ist, der zur Aufnahme jeweils einer Tafel mit Saugnäpfen versehen und zwangsweise so geführt ist, daß er während der Bewegung des Schwenkarmes von einer Endstellung in die andere um einen Winkel von kleiner als 90° um seine Schwenkachse gedreht wird.The invention relates to a device for receiving and relocating sheets, in particular glass sheets, from a substantially vertical position to a substantially horizontal position or vice versa, with a pivoting arm which has two end positions, namely in a receiving position and in a dispensing position and back, can be swiveled around a horizontal axis and at the swivel-out end a support frame is swivel-mounted about a horizontal axis, which is provided with suction cups for receiving a panel and is forcibly guided so that it moves from one end position to the one during the movement of the swivel arm another is rotated by an angle of less than 90 ° about its pivot axis.
Vorrichtungen dieser Art sind beispielsweise bekannt aus Prospekten der Firma Grenzebach. Die bekannten Vorrichtungen sind mit besonderen Antrieben versehen, welche die Drehung des Tragrahmens während der Schwenkbewegung des Schwenkarmes bewerkstelligen. Der Drehantrieb für den Tragrahmen kann von Kurvenscheiben abgeleitet werden und über Ketten auf Zahnräder übertragen werden, die auf der Schwenkachse des Tragrahmens befestigt sind. Die bekannten Vorrichtungen haben den Nachteil, daß die Schwenkantriebe für den Tragrahmen relativ aufwendig, und störanfällig sind. und daß bei längerer Betriebsdauer Verschleißerscheinungen auftreten, die eine exakte Führung des Tragrahmens in Frage stellen.Devices of this type are known, for example, from prospectuses from Grenzebach. The known devices are provided with special drives which bring about the rotation of the support frame during the pivoting movement of the pivot arm. The rotary drive for the support frame can be derived from cams and can be transferred via chains to gear wheels that are attached to the pivot axis of the support frame. The known devices have the disadvantage that the pivot drives for the support frame are relatively complex and prone to failure. and that signs of wear occur over a longer period of time which call into question an exact guidance of the supporting frame.
Der vorliegenden Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine Vorrichtung zum Aufnehmen und umsetzen von Tafeln, insbesondere Glastafeln, der eingangs genannten Art derart auszubilden, daß sie bei einfach ster Konstruktion auch nach langer Betriebsdauer exakt und zuverlässig arbeitet. Eine derartige robuste Konstruktion wird erfindungsgemäß dadurch erzielt, daß der Tragrahmen mit einer in vertikaler Ebene stehenden Führungsstange starr verbunden ist, die längsverschieblieh in einer außerhalb des Schwenkkreises des Schwenkarmes um eine horizontale Achse schwenkbar gelagerten Führungshülse geführt ist. Diese Vorrichtung nach der Erfindung hat den Vorteil, daß beim Verschwenken des Schwenkarmes von der Aufnahmestellung in die Abgabestellung der Tragrahmen von der Führungsstange in die jeweils gewünschte Stellung verschwenkt wird. Da die Führungshülse in einem relativ großen Abstand vom Schwenkkreis des Schwenkarmes und damit auch im relativ großen Abstand von der Schwenkachse des Tragrahmens angeordnet werden kann, sind die Führungskräfte, welche auf die Führungshülse und auf die Führungsstange einwirken, gering.The present invention has for its object to provide a device for receiving and moving panels, in particular glass panels, of the type mentioned in such a way that it works precisely and reliably even with a simple construction even after a long period of operation. Such a robust construction is achieved according to the invention in that the support frame is rigidly connected to a vertical guide rod which is guided in a longitudinally displaceable manner in a guide sleeve which is pivotably mounted outside the pivoting circle of the pivot arm about a horizontal axis. This device according to the invention has the advantage that when the pivot arm is pivoted from the receiving position into the dispensing position, the support frame is pivoted from the guide rod into the desired position. Since the guide sleeve can be arranged at a relatively large distance from the swivel circle of the swivel arm and thus also at a relatively large distance from the swivel axis of the support frame, the managers who act on the guide sleeve and on the guide rod are small.
Vorteilhafterweise sind die Drehachse des Schwenkarmes und die Schwenkachse der Führungshülse derart angeordnet und sind der Radius des Schwenkkreises, derThe axis of rotation of the swivel arm and the swivel axis of the guide sleeve are advantageously arranged in this way and the radius of the swivel circle is that
Schwenkwinkel des Schwenkarmes sowie der Winkel zwischen der Ebene des Tragarmes und der Führungsstange derart auf die Aufnahmestellung und Abgabestellung der Tafeln abgestimmt, daß in den Endstellungen des Schwenkarmes die Führungsstange im wesentlichen rechtwinklig zum Schwenkarm steht. Diese Ausbildung hat den erheblichen Vorteil, daß im Bereich der Endstellungen des Schwenkarmes die Drehbewegung des Tragrahmens minimal sind, so daß beispielsweise die horizontale Endstellung des Tragrahmens an die Transporthöhe der Fördervorrichtung in Grenzen angepaßt werden kann und auch die Position des Tragrahmens in der nahezu vertikalen Lage dem Stapelbock angepaßt werden kann.Swivel angle of the swivel arm and the angle between the plane of the support arm and the guide rod so matched to the receiving position and delivery position of the panels that in the end positions of the swivel arm, the guide rod is substantially perpendicular to Swivel arm stands. This design has the considerable advantage that in the area of the end positions of the swivel arm, the rotational movement of the support frame is minimal, so that, for example, the horizontal end position of the support frame can be adjusted within limits to the transport height of the conveyor device and also the position of the support frame in the almost vertical position the stacking stand can be adjusted.
Weitere Merkmale der Erfindung ergeben sich aus den Patentansprüchen.Further features of the invention emerge from the patent claims.
Die Erfindung ist in der folgenden Beschreibung unter Bezugnahme auf die Zeichnung, in der Ausführungsbeispiele dargestellt sind, erläutert. In der Zeichnung zeigen: Fig. 1 eine Seitenansicht undThe invention is explained in the following description with reference to the drawing, in which exemplary embodiments are shown. 1 shows a side view and
Fig. 2 eine Frontansicht der Vorrichtung nach der Erfindung,2 is a front view of the device according to the invention,
Fig. 3 eine Frontansicht eines abgewandelten Ausführungsbeispiels der Vorrichtung nach der Erfin düng.Fig. 3 is a front view of a modified embodiment of the device according to the inven tion.
Die in Fig. 1 dargestellte Vorrichtung dient dazu, von der Fördervorrichtung 1,zum Beispiel einem Förderband oder einer Rollenbahn, im wesentlichen horizontal geförderte Glastafeln 2 aufzunehmen und auf einen Glasbock 3 abzusetzen, der die abgesetzten Glastafeln in einer wenig von der lotrechten, abweichenden, geneigten Lage hält. Damit der Abstand der Auflagefläche des Glasbocks 3 von der Fördervorrichtung 1 trotz wachsenden Glasstapels konstant bleibt, ist der Glasbock 3 auf seinem Gestell 4 in Fördervorrichtung der Tafeln 2 taktweise derart verschiebbar, daß nach Absetzen einer Glastafel 2 der Glasbock 3 um die Dicke der abgestellten Glastafel 2 in Förderrichtung der Glastafeln 2 verschoben wird. Die in Fig. 1 dargestellte Vorrichtung dient aber auch dazu, die auf dem Glasbock 3 gestapelten Glastafeln 2 zu entstapeln und die Glastafeln 2 einzeln vom Glasbock 3 abzunehmen und horizontal auf die Fördervorrichtung 1 abzulegen. Die erfindungsgemäße Vorrichtung weist ein Maschinengestell 5 auf, in dem ein Schwenkarm 6 um die horizontale Achse 7 verschwenkbar ist. Am oberen ausschwenkbaren Ende des Schwenkarmes 6 ist ein um die horizontale Achse 10 schwenkbarer Tragrahmen 8 gelagert, der mit Saugnäpfen 9 zur Aufnahme der Glastafeln 2 versehen ist. Der Schwenkarm 6 ist mittels eines Antriebes um einen Winkel von vorzugsweise 80 bis 110° schwenkbar. Als Antrieb für den Schwenkarm 6 dient ein Pneumatikzylinder 11 , der im Maschinengestell 5 um die Achse 12 schwenkbar gehalten ist und dessen Kolbenstange 13 mit dem vorderen Ende am Schwenkarm 6 angelenkt ist.The device shown in FIG. 1 is used to take up substantially horizontally conveyed glass sheets 2 from the conveying device 1, for example a conveyor belt or a roller conveyor, and to place them on a glass trestle 3, which detaches the deposited glass sheets in a slightly different manner from the vertical, holds inclined position. So that the distance between the support surface of the glass trestle 3 and the conveyor device 1 remains constant despite the growing glass stack, the glass trestle 3 on its frame 4 in the conveyor device of the panels 2 can be shifted in cycles such that after the deposition of a glass panel 2, the glass trestle 3 by the thickness of the deposited glass panel 2 is moved in the conveying direction of the glass sheets 2. The device shown in Fig. 1 is used also to unstack the glass panels 2 stacked on the glass support 3 and to remove the glass panels 2 individually from the glass support 3 and to place them horizontally on the conveyor device 1. The device according to the invention has a machine frame 5 in which a swivel arm 6 can be swiveled about the horizontal axis 7. A support frame 8 which can be pivoted about the horizontal axis 10 and which is provided with suction cups 9 for receiving the glass panels 2 is mounted on the upper pivotable end of the swivel arm 6. The swivel arm 6 can be swiveled through an angle of preferably 80 to 110 ° by means of a drive. A pneumatic cylinder 11, which is held in the machine frame 5 so as to be pivotable about the axis 12 and whose piston rod 13 is articulated with the front end on the swivel arm 6, serves as the drive for the swivel arm 6.
Anstelle des Pneumatikzylinders 11 kann der Antrieb aber auch mittels eines strichpunktiert eingezeichneten Getriebemotors 14 erfolgen. Diese Antriebsart ist jedoch aufwendiger.Instead of the pneumatic cylinder 11, the drive can also take place by means of a geared motor 14 shown in broken lines. However, this type of drive is more complex.
Damit beim Umsetzen der Glastafeln 2 von der Fördervorrichtung 1 auf den Glasbock 3 oder umgekehrt die aufgenommene Glastafel 2 um einen Winkel von kleiner als 90° geschwenkt wird, und zwar dann, wenn sie einen genügend großen Abstand sowohl vom Glasbock 3 als auch von der Fδrdervorrichtung 1 hat, dient eine fest mit dem Tragrahmen 8 verbundene Führungsstange 15, die längsverschieblich in einer außerhalb des Schwenkkreises 33 des Schwenkarmes 6 um eine horizontale Achse 20 schwenkbar gelagerte Führungshülle 16 geführt ist.So that when the glass sheets 2 are moved from the conveyor device 1 to the glass frame 3 or vice versa, the received glass sheet 2 is pivoted through an angle of less than 90 °, specifically when it is at a sufficiently large distance from both the glass frame 3 and the conveyor device 1, serves a guide rod 15 which is fixedly connected to the support frame 8 and which is guided in a longitudinally displaceable manner in a guide sleeve 16 which is pivotably mounted about a horizontal axis 20 outside the swivel circle 33 of the swivel arm 6.
Die Anordnung der Schwenkachse 7 des Schwenkarmes 6 und der Schwenkachse 20 der Führungshülse 16 sowie die Größe des Radius des Schwenkkreises 23 und des Winkels zwischen der Führungsstange 15 und der Ebene des Tragarmes 8 sind derart, daß die Führungsstange 15 in den Endstellungen des Schwenkarmes 6 im wesentlichen rechtwinklig zum Schwenkarm 6 steht. Das hat die Wirkung, daß der Tragrahmen 8 nur noch mini mal tun die Achse 10 des Tragrahmens 8 geschwenkt wird, wenn sich der Schwenkarm 6 den Endstellungen nähert und daß die Schwenkbewegung des Tragrahmens 8 um die Achse 10 im wesentlichen dann erfolgt, wenn der Schwenkarm 6 den mittleren Bereich seines Schwenkbereiches durchfährt.The arrangement of the pivot axis 7 of the pivot arm 6 and the pivot axis 20 of the guide sleeve 16 and the size of the radius of the pivot circle 23 and the angle between the guide rod 15 and the Level of the support arm 8 are such that the guide rod 15 is substantially perpendicular to the pivot arm 6 in the end positions of the pivot arm 6. This has the effect that the support frame 8 only do mini times the axis 10 of the support frame 8 is pivoted when the pivot arm 6 approaches the end positions and that the pivoting movement of the support frame 8 about the axis 10 takes place essentially when the pivot arm 6 passes through the central area of its swivel range.
Es ist auch möglich, die Führungsstange 15 nicht von der Schwenkachse 10 des Tragrahmens 8 ausgehen zu lassen, sondern von einem anderen Punkt des Tragrahmens 8. Dadurch verändert sich allerdings etwas die Kinematik der Vorrichtung.It is also possible not to let the guide rod 15 start from the pivot axis 10 of the support frame 8, but from another point of the support frame 8. However, this does somewhat change the kinematics of the device.
Um die erfindungsgemäße Vorrichtung den praktischen Gegebenheiten anpassen zu können, kann es zweckmäßig sein, die Führungsstange 15 derart am Tragrahmen 8 zu befestigen, daß der Winkel zwischen der Führungsstange 15 und der Ebene des Tragrahmens 8 einstellbar ist.In order to be able to adapt the device according to the invention to practical circumstances, it may be expedient to fasten the guide rod 15 to the support frame 8 in such a way that the angle between the guide rod 15 and the plane of the support frame 8 is adjustable.
Wie die Fig. 2 zeigt, kann der Tragrahmen 8 von zwei seitlich des Tragrahmens 8 angeordneten Schwenkarmen 6 gehalten werden, die über eine Verbindungswelle 21 miteinander verbunden sind. Die Verbindungswelle 21 ist über mindestens zwei Lager 22 im Maschinengestell 5 gelagert. Um die Lager 22 und die Verbindungswelle 21 weitgehend zu entlasten, kann es zweckmäßig sein, jeden Schwenkarm durch einen Pneumatikzylinder 11 anzutreiben. Die Pneumatikzylinder 11 sind dann parallel geschaltet.As shown in FIG. 2, the support frame 8 can be held by two swivel arms 6 arranged on the side of the support frame 8, which are connected to one another via a connecting shaft 21. The connecting shaft 21 is mounted in the machine frame 5 via at least two bearings 22. In order to largely relieve the load on the bearings 22 and the connecting shaft 21, it can be expedient to drive each swivel arm by means of a pneumatic cylinder 11. The pneumatic cylinders 11 are then connected in parallel.
Wie die Fig. 3 zeigt, ist aber auch eine fliehende Lagerung des Tragrahmens 8 möglich, insbesondere dann, wenn relativ schmale Glastafeln 2 umgesetzt werden sollen. In diesem Falle ist es zweckmäßig, den Schwenk arm 6 zwischen den Tragrahmen 8 und der Führungsstange 15 anzuordnen.As shown in FIG. 3, a fleeting mounting of the support frame 8 is also possible, especially when relatively narrow glass panels 2 are to be implemented. In this case, it is useful to swivel to arrange arm 6 between the support frame 8 and the guide rod 15.
Wie die Fig. 1 zeigt, ist das Schwenklager 17 der Führungshülse 16 in einem vertikalen Pfosten 18 gelagert. Am Pfosten 18 ist eine Führungsplatte 19 angebracht, die es ermöglicht, das Schwenklager 17 zu verschieben. Die Führungsnuten 24 in dieser Führungsplatte 19 verlaufen parallel zum Schwenkarm 6 in eine Endstellung beziehungsweise parallel zu der in der anderen Endstellung durch die Schwenkachse 10 des Tragrahmens 8 verlaufenden Tangente an den Schwenkkreis 23. Durch Verschieben des Schwenklagers 17 entlang den Führungsnuten 24 wird erreicht, daß sich an der Endstellung des Tragrahmens 8 oberhalb der Fördereinrichtung 1 nichts ändert, während die Position des Tragrahmens 8 am Lagerbock 3 sich ändert und somit den jeweiligen Verhältnissen am Lagerbock 3 angepaßt werden kann. 1 shows, the pivot bearing 17 of the guide sleeve 16 is mounted in a vertical post 18. A guide plate 19 is attached to the post 18 and enables the pivot bearing 17 to be displaced. The guide grooves 24 in this guide plate 19 run parallel to the swivel arm 6 in one end position or parallel to the tangent to the swivel circle 23 through the swivel axis 10 of the support frame 8 in the other end position. Moving the swivel bearing 17 along the guide grooves 24 ensures that nothing changes at the end position of the support frame 8 above the conveyor 1, while the position of the support frame 8 on the bearing block 3 changes and can thus be adapted to the respective conditions on the bearing block 3.
