Abstract
A unit for notching a sheet of laminated glass has a supporting surface for the sheet to be notched; two straight, parallel guides on opposite sides of the supporting surface: and two notching heads running along respective guides to effect two notch lines on opposite surfaces of the sheet of laminated glass; the sheet being moved on the supporting surface by means of a gripping and handling head, which engages the sheet, has a respective axis of symmetry perpendicular to the supporting surface, and is activated by a first actuating device to rotate in opposite directions about the axis, and by a second actuating device to translate in a direction perpendicular to the axis.
Claims12
A unit (1) for notching a sheet (2) of laminated glass, comprising a supporting surface (8) for the sheet (2) of laminated glass to be notched;
- two notching heads (15) facing each other and running along respective straight paths (14) parallel to said supporting surface (8) so as to effect two notch lines (37;
- 38) on opposite surfaces of said sheet (2) of laminated glass;
- and handling means (28;
- 40) for moving said sheet (2) of laminated glass on said supporting surface (8);
- said handling means (28;
- 40) comprising a gripping head (32) for gripping said sheet (2) and having a respective barycentric axis (31) perpendicular to the supporting surface (8), and first actuating means (35) for rotating said gripping head (32) with respect to said supporting surface (8) about said barycentric axis (31);
- characterized in that said handling means (28;
- 40) also comprise second actuating means (19);
- (43) for moving the gripping head (32) with respect to said supporting surface in a first direction (22) perpendicular to the barycentric axis (31).
