Abstract:
A panel conveyance system includes a pin member, a bar pad facing a panel right lower portion, a block pad facing a panel left lower portion, a bar guide positioned outside an outer edge end of the panel left lower portion, and a conveyance robot. The panel conveyance system further includes a panel take-out control unit that hangs a panel on a pin member, and a temporary retention control unit that causes the bar pad to come into contact with a surface of the panel right lower portion, causes the block pad to come into contact with a surface of the panel left lower portion, and causes the bar guide to come into contact with the panel left lower portion to temporarily retain the panel while keeping the panel hung on the pin member, and a holding control unit that holds the temporarily retained panel with a clamp.

Claim (Index 1):
A panel holding device for holding a panel in which a hole portion is formed,\n the panel being placed in a stocker to arrange the hole portion on an upper side in a vertical direction, the panel holding device comprising: a detection device configured to detect a position of the hole portion; a pin member to be inserted into the hole portion; a fall-off prevention mechanism configured to prevent the panel hung on the pin member from falling off the pin member; a frame member supporting the pin member; a first contact member supported by the frame member to face a first panel portion in a state where the panel is hung on the pin member, when the panel hung on the pin member is divided into right and left portions by a vertical line passing through the hole portion, and in a case where a portion that is one of the right and left portions and is lower than the hole portion is the first panel portion and a portion that is the other of the right and left portions and is lower than the hole portion is a second panel portion; a sucking device supported by the frame member in a vicinity of the first contact member and configured to suck the first panel portion; a second contact member supported by the frame member to face the second panel portion in the state where the panel is hung on the pin member; a third contact member supported by the frame member to be positioned outside an outer edge end of the second panel portion in the state where the panel is hung on the pin member; a holding device supported by the frame member in a vicinity of the third contact member and configured to hold the second panel portion; a moving device configured to move the frame member; and a control device configured to control the moving device, the sucking device, the holding device, and the fall-off prevention mechanism, and the control device comprising: a panel take-out control unit configured to cause the pin member to be inserted into the hole portion and cause the fall-off prevention mechanism to be in a fall-off prevention state to hang the panel on the pin member by controlling the moving device using an output of the detection device; a temporary retention control unit configured to cause the first contact member to come into contact with a surface of the first panel portion, cause the second contact member to come into contact with a surface of the second panel portion, and cause the third contact member to come into contact with the outer edge end of the second panel portion to temporarily retain the panel by controlling the moving device while keeping the panel hung on the pin member; and a holding control unit configured to cause the holding device to hold the second panel portion and cause the sucking device to suck the first panel portion of the temporarily retained panel.
