Therefore, an object of the present invention is to provide a transfer system capable of suppressing storage in at least one of a transfer system that performs transfer of a display panel supplied to a specific processing device and transfer of a display panel discharged from a specific processing device. Damage to the display panel when the tray with the display panel is unfolded or stacked. [Technical means to solve the problem] In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, the conveying system of the present invention is characterized in that it is at least one of conveying a display panel supplied to a specific processing device and conveying a display panel discharged from a specific processing device. And a transport system that includes: a conveyor that transports pallets stacked in a plurality of layers and can accommodate display panels; a pallet stage that places pallets; a first transport robot that transports pallets between the conveyor and the pallet stage ; A second transfer robot that performs at least one of carrying out the display panel from the tray placed on the tray carrier and loading the display panel into the tray placed on the tray carrier; and a data reading device whose reading record is The data of the display panel; and the data reading device reads at least one of the data of the display panel after the second transfer robot has been removed from the tray and the data of the display panel before the second transfer robot has been moved into the tray. The transfer system of the present invention includes: a conveyor that transfers trays stacked in a plurality of layers and that can accommodate a display panel; a tray stage that holds a tray; and a first transfer robot that transfers between the conveyor and the tray stage tray. Therefore, in the present invention, the first transfer robot can transfer the pallets between the conveyor and the pallet stage, so that the pallets containing the display panels can be disassembled or stacked. That is, in the present invention, the trays can be unstacked or stacked automatically. Therefore, in the present invention, it is possible to suppress the difference of the stacking operation or the stacking operation of the tray, and to stabilize the stacking operation or the stacking operation of the tray. As a result, in the present invention, damage to the display panel can be suppressed when the trays are detached or stacked. In addition, in the present invention, since the stacking or stacking of the trays is performed automatically, personnel costs can be reduced. In addition, the transfer system of the present invention includes at least one of a second transfer robot that carries out a display panel self-loaded from a tray placed on a tray stage, and carries in a display panel into a tray placed on the tray stage; The display panel stored in the unstacked tray is automatically conveyed to the processing device, or the display panel discharged from the processing device is automatically stored in the tray. Further, the transfer system of the present invention further includes a data reading device that reads at least one of the data of the display panel after the second transfer robot has been removed from the tray and the data of the display panel before the second transfer robot has been transferred into the tray.

With this configuration, the display panel can be carried out or carried in by the second transfer robot, and the tray on the tray carrier can be replaced by the first transfer robot. Therefore, as compared with the case where the number of tray stages provided in the conveying system is one, the cycle time of the conveying system can be shortened. In the present invention, it is preferable that the transport system includes an alignment device that detects an edge of the display panel carried out from the tray by the second transport robot, and performs alignment of the display panel based on a detection result of the edge of the display panel. If so configured, the data can be read by the data reading device to align the data of the display panel after the device is aligned. Therefore, the data of the display panel after the second transfer robot has been unloaded from the tray can be accurately and accurately read by the data reading device. In the present invention, it is preferable that the conveying system includes: a layer number detecting mechanism that detects the number of trays on the conveyor; and the layer number detecting mechanism includes: a sensor that detects the presence or absence of a tray; and a lifting mechanism that Lift the sensor. With this configuration, the first transfer robot can be operated based on the detection result of the number-of-layers detection mechanism to prevent collision between the tray on the conveyor and the first transfer robot, or between the tray on the conveyor and the first transfer robot. Collision of pallets. In the present invention, it is preferable that the conveyor is constituted by a plurality of divided conveyors which are divided in the conveying direction of the tray and can be individually driven. With this configuration, a plurality of stacked trays can be individually transferred in the tray transfer direction. Therefore, the ease of use of the conveyor is better. In the present invention, it is preferable that the transfer system includes a first frame for installing the first transfer robot and a second frame for installing the second transfer robot, and the first frame is provided with a setting for installing the first transfer robot.

With this configuration, it is easy to prevent the first transfer robot from interfering with the second transfer robot when the first transfer robot and the second transfer robot are operated simultaneously. In the present invention, it is preferable that the second transfer robot includes, for example, a main body portion, a plurality of links, the base end sides of which are rotatably connected to the main body portion, and a plurality of arm portions, each of which has a base end side. Those are rotatably connected to each of the end sides of the plurality of links; the movable part is rotatably connected to the end sides of the plurality of arm parts; the panel holding part is mounted on the movable part and holds the display panel; and A plurality of rotation driving mechanisms that each rotate a plurality of links; the plurality of links are connected to the main body portion so as to extend radially at approximately equal angular intervals to the outer peripheral side of the main body portion, and the arm portion is provided with Two linear arms parallel to each other, and a base end side of each of the two arms is rotatably connected to a distal end side of the link, and a movable portion is rotatably connected to a distal end side of the two arms, and a main body part It is fixed to the installation part. That is, the second transfer robot is, for example, a so-called parallel connection robot. In this case, the display panel can be carried out from or into the display panel at a relatively high speed. In the present invention, it is preferable that the transfer system is provided as a tray carrier: 2 fixed tray carriers, which are arranged adjacent to each other in a left-right direction orthogonal to a tray transport direction and an up-down direction; and 2 movable tray carriers, which It can be moved in the pallet's conveying direction and left and right direction; and it has: 2 stage moving mechanisms that individually move the 2 movable tray stages; and the stage moving mechanism makes the movable tray stage in the left and right direction It moves between a first position juxtaposed with the fixed tray stage, and a second position that overlaps at least a part of the fixed tray stage in the transport direction of the tray.

如以上說明般,於本形態中,機器人8將搬送至分割輸送機20之層疊狀態之托盤3逐個搬送至托盤載台6、7,並將分割輸送機20上之層疊狀態之托盤3拆疊。即,於本形態中,由機器人8自動進行托盤3之拆疊。因此,於本形態中,可抑制托盤3之拆疊作業之差異,可使托盤3之拆疊作業穩定。因此,於本形態中,可抑制進行托盤3之拆疊時液晶面板2之損傷。 又,於本形態中,載置於托盤載台6、7之托盤3中之液晶面板2由機器人9搬入至供給單元10,隨後,由機器人61、搬送裝置60及機器人58搬送而搬入至處理裝置15。即,於本形態中,自動自拆疊後之托盤3將液晶面板2搬送至處理裝置15。因此,於本形態中,可抑制液晶面板2之搬送作業之差異,可使液晶面板2之搬送作業穩定。因此,於本形態中,可抑制液晶面板2之搬送時液晶面板2之損傷。又,於本形態中,由於自動進行托盤3之拆疊或層疊,且自動自拆疊後之托盤3將液晶面板2搬送至處理裝置15,故可削減人事費。 於本形態中,以資料讀取裝置56讀取之液晶面板2之資料作為被讀取資料之液晶面板2之個別資料,與被讀取資料之液晶面板2建立關聯。又,於本形態中,將以資料讀取裝置56讀取資料後之液晶面板2向處理裝置15搬送。因此,於本形態中,可向處理裝置15供給與個別資料建立關聯後之液晶面板2,其結果,於處理裝置15中,可基於個別資料適當地處理液晶面板2。又,於本形態中,由於以資料讀取裝置56讀取液晶面板2之資料之前以對準裝置57將液晶面板2對位,故可以資料讀取裝置56確實且正確地讀取液晶面板2之資料。 於本形態中,個別地設置將層疊之托盤3向後側搬送之輸送機4、與將層疊之托盤3向前側搬送之輸送機5,且可個別地進行收納有液晶面板2之層疊狀態之托盤3之向後側之搬送、及層疊狀態之空托盤3之向前側之搬送。因此,於本形態中,與由共通之輸送機進行收納有液晶面板2之層疊狀態之托盤3之向後側之搬送、與層疊狀態之空托盤3之向前側之搬送之情形相比,可縮短搬送系統1之週期。 又,於本形態中,由於設置有2個托盤載台6、7,故例如可一面由機器人9進行自托盤載台6上之托盤3搬出液晶面板2,一面由機器人8自托盤載台7將空托盤3搬送至輸送機5且自輸送機4將收納有液晶面板2之托盤3搬送至托盤載台7。即,可一面由機器人9進行自托盤載台6上之托盤3搬出液晶面板2,一面由機器人8進行托盤載台7上之托盤3之更換。因此,於本形態中,與設置之托盤載台之數量為1個之情形相比,可縮短搬送系統1之週期。 於本形態中,機器人8以自本體框架11之上表面11a立起之方式設置於上表面11a,機器人9以懸垂於配置於較機器人8之上端更上側之本體框架12之上表面部12a之方式設置於上表面部12a。因此,於本形態中,易於防止使機器人8與機器人9同時動作時機器人8與機器人9干涉。又,於本形態中,由於機器人9為所謂之並行連接機器人,故可以相對高速進行自托盤3搬出液晶面板2。 於本形態中,機器人8進行自輸送機4向托盤載台6、7搬送托盤3、及自托盤載台6、7向輸送機5搬送托盤3。因此,於本形態中,與個別設置進行自輸送機4向托盤載台6、7搬送托盤3的機器人、與進行自托盤載台6、7向輸送機5搬送托盤3的機器人之情形相比,可簡化搬送系統1之構成。 於本形態中,分割輸送機20具備限制左右方向之托盤3之移動之導引構件27。又,於本形態中,分割輸送機20具備供托盤3之後端抵接之抵接構件28,輸送機4於機器人8向托盤載台6、7搬送托盤3前將托盤3搬送至後側並使托盤3抵接於抵接構件28。因此,於本形態中,可將由機器人8搬送至托盤載台6、7前之托盤3於輸送機4上對位。因此,於本形態中,可精度良好地將托盤3載置於托盤載台6、7。 於本形態中,將檢測輸送機4上之托盤3之層數之層數檢測機構29安裝於分割輸送機20。因此,於本形態中,可基於層數檢測機構29之檢測結果使機器人8動作,藉此防止機器人8之托盤固持部39與托盤3碰撞。又,於本形態中,由於輸送機4由可個別驅動之5個分割輸送機16~20構成,輸送機5由可個別驅動之5個分割輸送機21~25構成,故可於前後方向上個別地搬送複數個層疊之托盤3。因此,於本形態中,輸送機4、5之易用性較佳。

於以輸送機94、95搬送之托盤3未收納液晶面板2,故以輸送機94、95搬送之托盤3為空托盤。另一方面,於以輸送機96、97搬送之托盤3收納有複數片液晶面板2。本形態之輸送機94、95係供給側輸送機,輸送機96、97係排出側輸送機。另,輸送機94~97可為皮帶輸送機等。

如以上說明般,於本形態中,機器人8將收納有液晶面板2之1個托盤3自托盤載台98~101搬送至分割輸送機25,並將托盤3層疊於分割輸送機25。即,於本形態中,由機器人8自動進行托盤3之層疊。因此,於本形態中,可抑制托盤3之層疊作業之差異,可使托盤3之層疊作業穩定。因此,於本形態中,可抑制進行托盤3之層疊時液晶面板2之損傷。
