Abstract
A glass-plate working apparatus 1 includes: a scribe line forming device 5, glass-plate bend-breaking devices 15A and 15B, glass-plate peripheral edge grinding devices 19A and 19B, and a glass-plate transporting device 20 for carrying in and carrying out two glass plates 2 at a time with respect to each of the scribe line forming device 5, the glass-plate bend-breaking devices 15A and 15B, and the glass-plate peripheral edge grinding devices 19A and 19B, and X-Y coordinate system controlled movement of the glass-plate peripheral edge grinding devices 19A and 19B in simultaneous grinding of peripheral edges of the glass plates 2 is adapted to be effected independently of each other.
Claims2
A glass-plate working apparatus comprising:
- a scribe line forming device for forming scribe lines on two glass plates;
- a glass-plate bend-breaking device for bend-breaking the two glass plates;
- a glass-plate peripheral edge grinding device for grinding peripheral edges of the two glass plates;
- and
- a glass-plate transporting device for carrying in and carrying out two glass plates at a time with respect to each of the scribe line forming device, the glass-plate bend-breaking device, and the glass-plate peripheral edge grinding device,
- the glass-plate peripheral edge grinding device having a grinding worktable which sucks and supports the glass plate and is moved along a Y-axis, a Y-axis moving means for moving the grinding worktable along the Y-axis, a grinding head which is moved along an X-axis, and an X-axis moving means for moving the grinding head along the X-axis,
- X-Y coordinate system controlled movement of the glass-plate peripheral edge grinding device in simultaneous grinding of peripheral edges of the two glass plates being adapted to be effected independently of each other.
A glass-plate working apparatus comprising:
- a scribing position for forming scribe lines on two glass plates;
- a bend-breaking position for bend-breaking the two glass plates;
- a peripheral edge grinding position for grinding peripheral edges of corresponding ones of the glass plates by two glass-plate peripheral edge grinding devices which are moved under control by a X-Y coordinate system, and
- a glass-plate transporting device whereby two glass plates at a time are replaced and transported consecutively among said positions,
- each of said two glass-plate peripheral edge grinding devices having a grinding worktable which sucks and supports the glass plate and is moved along a Y-axis, and a grinding head which is moved along an X-axis,
- X-Y coordinate system controlled movement of the two glass-plate peripheral edge grinding devices being adapted to be effected independently of each other.
