首先，利用一機械手臂等將待切割標的之玻璃面板G1傳送(transport)至載入單元100上。 First, the glass panel G1 to be cut is transported to the loading unit 100 by a robot arm or the like.
在利用機械手臂等將玻璃面板G1傳送(transport)至載入單元100之後，利用載入單元100之對位部110初步對位玻璃面板G1。 After the glass panel G1 is transported to the loading unit 100 by a robot arm or the like, the glass panel G1 is initially aligned by the alignment portion 110 of the loading unit 100.
然後將初步對位之玻璃面板G1傳送(transport)至玻璃面板傳送單元200，並承載於輸送皮帶211上；接著，藉由轉動輸送皮帶211，將承載於玻璃面板傳送單元200上的玻璃面板G1沿著X軸方向移動至切割單元300。 Then, the initially aligned glass panel G1 is transported to the glass panel transport unit 200 and carried on the transport belt 211; then, by rotating the transport belt 211, the glass panel G1 carried on the glass panel transport unit 200 is carried. The cutting unit 300 is moved in the X-axis direction.
之後，藉由玻璃面板傳送單元200與切割單元300之間的相對移動，在玻璃面板G1的上表面及下表面分別形成切割線。 Thereafter, a cutting line is formed on the upper surface and the lower surface of the glass panel G1 by the relative movement between the glass panel transfer unit 200 and the cutting unit 300.
詳細而言，如圖2所示，在玻璃面板G1的表面上進行切割操作之前，分別利用荷重元311及321測量一上切割元件S之一上切割頭310向下移動所產生之壓力、以及一下切割元件S之一下切割頭320向下移動所產生之壓力，其中，荷重元311及321係設置於對應上、下切割元件S之位置。另外，利用一獨立之控制信號，使得一調節器(圖未示)等調整此些壓力至預設之參考壓力。 In detail, as shown in FIG. 2, before the cutting operation is performed on the surface of the glass panel G1, the pressure generated by the downward movement of the cutting head 310 on one of the upper cutting elements S is measured by the load cells 311 and 321 respectively, and The pressure generated by the lower cutting head 320 is moved downward by one of the cutting elements S, wherein the load cells 311 and 321 are disposed at positions corresponding to the upper and lower cutting elements S. In addition, a separate control signal is used to cause a regulator (not shown) or the like to adjust the pressure to a predetermined reference pressure.

同時，在玻璃面板G1的上、下表面形成上、下切割線時，夾持單元400係夾持玻璃面板G1的後端(相對於玻璃面板G1的搬運方向而言)，以避免玻璃面板G1產生搖晃。 Meanwhile, when the upper and lower cutting lines are formed on the upper and lower surfaces of the glass panel G1, the clamping unit 400 holds the rear end of the glass panel G1 (relative to the conveying direction of the glass panel G1) to avoid the glass panel G1. Shaking.
夾持單元400包括一夾持本體410、複數個玻璃面板夾具420、以及一夾具移動部430，其中，夾持本體410係設置於玻璃面板傳送單元200上方、並定向於Y軸方向，玻璃面板夾具420係設置於夾持本體410上，用以夾持玻璃面板G1的後端，夾具移動部430係沿著X軸方向移動夾持本體410。 The clamping unit 400 includes a clamping body 410, a plurality of glass panel fixtures 420, and a clamp moving portion 430.

利用一獨立之控制信號以命令夾持單元400夾持玻璃面板G1。 A separate control signal is used to command the clamping unit 400 to clamp the glass panel G1.
承上所述，當夾持單元400夾持玻璃面板G1時，玻璃面板傳送單元200、切割單元300及夾持單元400係同步操作，以便在玻璃面板G1上形成切割線。 As described above, when the grip unit 400 holds the glass panel G1, the glass panel transfer unit 200, the cutting unit 300, and the grip unit 400 are operated in synchronization to form a cut line on the glass panel G1.
然後，玻璃面板傳送單元200將在相對表面上形成有切割線之玻璃面板G1沿X軸方向傳送(transport)至破裂單元500。 Then, the glass panel transfer unit 200 transports the glass panel G1 on which the cut lines are formed on the opposite surfaces to the rupture unit 500 in the X-axis direction.
在本實施例中，可藉由一獨立之控制信號，使得破裂單元500施壓於玻璃面板G1，並同時提供一彎曲力矩，或是藉由對玻璃面板G1提供蒸氣並使切割線之裂痕變寬，進而完成破裂玻璃面板G1之操作以形成單位玻璃面板G2。 In this embodiment, the rupture unit 500 can be pressed against the glass panel G1 by a separate control signal, and at the same time, a bending moment can be provided, or the vapor of the glass panel G1 can be supplied and the crack of the cutting line can be changed. It is wide, and the operation of breaking the glass panel G1 is completed to form the unit glass panel G2.
最後，將單位玻璃面板G2傳送(transport)至升降平台600上，並可允許被取出。 Finally, the unit glass panel G2 is transported onto the lifting platform 600 and allowed to be taken out.
在本發明中，如圖5所示，控制器700係選擇性包括一可 編程控制器單元(PC unit)710及一可編程邏輯控制器單元(PLC unit)720，其係輸出一操作信號至馬達(圖未示)，進而操作玻璃面板傳送單元200(特別示)輸送皮帶211。 In the present invention, as shown in FIG. 5, the controller 700 optionally includes a Programming a controller unit (PC unit) 710 and a programmable logic controller unit (PLC unit) 720, which outputs an operation signal to a motor (not shown), thereby operating the glass panel transfer unit 200 (in particular) conveying belt 211.
舉例而言，在上述之控制器700中，可編程控制器單元710係控制玻璃面板G1的傳送操作，或沿著垂直於玻璃面板G1之傳送方向移動切割元件S以使得切割單元300進行切割玻璃面板G1，而可編程邏輯控制器單元720係控制玻璃面板G1之搬運操作。 For example, in the controller 700 described above, the programmable controller unit 710 controls the transfer operation of the glass panel G1, or moves the cutting element S along the transfer direction perpendicular to the glass panel G1 to cause the cutting unit 300 to cut the glass. The panel G1, and the programmable logic controller unit 720 controls the handling operation of the glass panel G1.
在上述結構下，可編程控制器單元710可以提供在切割操作過程中所需的高速及準確的控制，而可編程邏輯控制器單元720可在搬運操作中，避免系統效能下降。 Under the above structure, the programmable controller unit 710 can provide high speed and accurate control required during the cutting operation, and the programmable logic controller unit 720 can avoid system performance degradation during the handling operation.
詳細而言，可編程控制器單元710是需要高速操作或多重步驟補插(16個步驟以上)之控制操作的首選，因此，可編程控制器單元710可用於進行切割操作，例如傳送(transport)玻璃面板G1、沿Y軸方向移動切割元件S、或控制切割頭310之Z軸馬達(如圖3所示之311)。另外，依據可編程邏輯控制器單元720的控制操作特性，其係適用於特定部位，因此，可編程邏輯控制器單元720處理資料的速度相對較低，故可編程邏輯控制器單元720係較佳應用於需要高穩定度之操作，例如從載入單元100搬運(carry)玻璃面板G1之操作、或是搬運(carry)已切割完畢之玻璃面板G1之操作。 In detail, the programmable controller unit 710 is the first choice for control operations requiring high speed operation or multiple step interpolation (16 steps or more).

承上所述，不論是進行切割或搬運(carry)玻璃面板G1之操作，可以選擇雙控制器700之可編程控制器單元710與可編程邏輯控制器單元720其中之一(針對操作條件較適當者)，因此，可以提高系統穩定度並避免效能下降。最後，本發明能夠避免下列問題，如玻璃面板切割裝置的產能下降、需要額外人力等。 As described above, whether it is performing the operation of cutting or carrying the glass panel G1, one of the programmable controller unit 710 and the programmable logic controller unit 720 of the dual controller 700 can be selected (suitable for the operating conditions) Therefore, system stability can be improved and performance degradation can be avoided.

Therefore, it is preferable to control the operation of the glass panel jig 420 by the programmable controller unit 710.
需注意者，必須在形成切割線之前，先判斷切割線的位置，如圖3所示，影像攝影機350係鄰設於切割頭310，用以判斷切割線的位置，亦即，依據影像攝影機350所擷取之影像以進行控制，可以調整切割頭310在導桿310a之位置。 It should be noted that the position of the cutting line must be determined before the cutting line is formed. As shown in FIG. 3, the image camera 350 is adjacent to the cutting head 310 for determining the position of the cutting line, that is, according to the image camera 350. The captured image is controlled to adjust the position of the cutting head 310 at the guide bar 310a.

特別是，若玻璃面板傳送單元包括一輸送帶單元，而輸送帶單元包括一馬達及由馬達所驅動之一輸送皮帶，則可編程控制器單元及可編程邏輯控制器單元係皆連接至馬達，因此可以適當地減少施加於可編程控制器單元的負載。 In particular, if the glass panel transport unit includes a conveyor belt unit, and the conveyor belt unit includes a motor and a conveyor belt driven by the motor, the programmable controller unit and the programmable logic controller unit are all connected to the motor. Therefore, the load applied to the programmable controller unit can be appropriately reduced.
另外，一控制器切換器係設置於雙控制器及馬達之間，因此控制器切換器可以依據情況，適當地選擇可編程控制器單元及可編程邏輯控制器單元其中之一。 In addition, a controller switch is disposed between the dual controller and the motor, so the controller switch can appropriately select one of the programmable controller unit and the programmable logic controller unit according to the situation.
再者，由於可編程邏輯控制器單元係控制破裂單元，因此可以進一步減少施加於可編程控制器單元的負載。 Furthermore, since the programmable logic controller unit controls the rupture unit, the load applied to the programmable controller unit can be further reduced.
此外，可編程控制器單元係控制夾持單元，以便在切割操作過程中夾持玻璃面板，因此，可編程控制器單元可在切割操作過程中控制玻璃面板之傳送操作，其係同步實現控制夾持單元之操作以及傳送玻璃面板之操作，進而簡化此裝置之控制。 In addition, the programmable controller unit controls the clamping unit to clamp the glass panel during the cutting operation. Therefore, the programmable controller unit can control the conveying operation of the glass panel during the cutting operation, and the control panel is synchronously realized.
