Description
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

1. Field of the Invention


The present invention relates to the display technology, and more particular to a glass substrate transmission device and a method for detecting the rotational synchronization of driven shafts.


2. Description of Related Art


In the LCD panel production process, it uses the conveyor as the transmission device to flow the TFT-LCD glass substrate. Currently, the transmission device use low-dust and anti-static rollers composed of POM or Teflon to transmit the glass substrate.


In transmission process of the glass substrate, it requires a smooth flow, no jitter, no deviation of flow, and no scratches of the glass substrate. Therefore, each of the driven shafts must rotate at the same speed to meet the above requirement, and each contact point with the glass substrate of each of the rollers must in the same contour surface.


It usually can use adjustment method to ensure that the height of the contact points with the glass substrate of the rollers are within the permissible error range, but each driven shaft may be affected by magnetic main drive shaft, site impact as well as sudden changes in temperature and other factors so that it can not guarantee the synchronization.


The glass substrate depends on rolling friction to transmit. In the transmission process, when a driven shaft stop rotating due to failure or the speed is not synchronized with other driven shafts, the point of the roller on the driven shafts contacting the glass substrate produce sliding friction.


On one hand, when the sliding friction is much larger than the rolling friction, it may marks or scratches the glass substrate. On the other hand, the new sliding friction destroy the force balance of the glass substrate and cause the glass substrate to jitter and flow resulting in the fragments of glass substrate.


When each driven shaft rotation is not synchronized to produce sliding friction, it is difficult to detect with the naked eye and hard to discover on time. It is often aware to repair equipment when fragments or defective of the products have happened.


Therefore, it is necessary to provide a glass substrate transmission device and a method for detecting synchronization of the driven shafts to solve the conventional art which can not rapidly detect that if the driven shafts rotate synchronously.

Wherein, the multiple driven shafts 10 are disposed parallel at intervals along a first direction X and extend along a second direction Y. Each of the driven shafts has a through hole 11. The first direction X and the second direction Y are perpendicular. The through hole 11 is used liar pass the infrared, and the size of the through hole 11 is decided according to the diameter of the driven shaft 10 and the requirement of infrared. When installing the driven shaft 10, the through holes 11 on the driven shafts 10 are aligned to form a channel for passing the infrared.


The multiple rollers 20 are fixed at intervals on the driven shafts 10 along the second direction Y. The rollers 20 are used for carrying the glass substrate 2, and rotate with the driven shaft 10 to flow the glass substrate 2. In this embodiment, the rollers 20 are made of Polyoxymethylene (POM) resin or Teflon and other low-dust and anti-static materials, and the rollers 20 flow the glass substrate 2 forward by rolling friction.

Then, all the rollers 20 are fixed to the driven shafts 10 in order to determine if the multiple rollers 20 are synchronous by the naked eye.


The determining module 43 and receiver module 42 are connected. The determining module 43 is used for determining that if the multiple driven shafts 10 rotate synchronously according to the intensity of the reflected light.


The intensity of the reflected light received by the receiver module 42 changes with the change in distance of the reflecting object (i.e. obstacle). When the distance of the reflecting objects is closer, the intensity of the reflected light is stronger. When the distance of the reflecting objects is farther, the intensity of the reflected light is weaker.


The determining module 43 can determine the distance of the obstacle by the intensity of the reflected light. The stronger the intensity of the reflected light, the closer the distance of the obstacle is.


Therefore, it can determine accordingly that if one of the driven shafts 10 rotates asynchronously. It can further determine the distance of the driven shaft 10 rotating asynchronously according to the intensity of the reflected light. It also can determine that which driven shaft 10 rotates asynchronously according to different distances.

The determining module 43 determines that if the intensity value of the reflected light and the preset values of the intensity of the reflected light corresponding to the reflection plate 30 are matched. In the situation of match, the determining module 43 determines that the multiple driven shafts rotate synchronously. In the situation of mismatch, the determining module 43 determines that the multiple driven shafts rotate asynchronously.


When determining that the driven shafts 10 rotate asynchronously, the determining module 43 search the matched preset values of the intensity of the reflected light according to the intensity value of the reflected light and determine that the one of the driven shafts 10 corresponding to the matched preset values of the intensity of the reflected light rotates asynchronously. When the determining module 43 determines that the multiple driven shafts 10 rotate asynchronously, the alarm module 44 produces an alarm to customer for fixing the glass substrate transmission device 1.

The main drive wheels 52 rotate with the rotation of the main drive shaft 51, and the main drive wheels 52 are magnetic. The multiple driven wheels 53 are also magnetic. Each of the driven wheels 53 is fixed at one end of the driven shaft 10 which is non-through-hole area and closed to the main drive shaft 51. The driven wheel 53 is driven by the main drive wheel 32 through magnetic coupling. Finally, it drives the driven shaft 10 to rotate.
