WASHING APPARATUS FOR PLATE MATERIAL

摘要

A plate material washing system that is capable of washing plate materials such as large-sized and thinned glass plates quickly and effectively so that their quality is improved, comprising a belt conveyor (2) that supports a lower end of the glass plate in a substantially upright position; a fluid guide (8) that applies a fluid pressure to a side surface of the glass plate (G) to support the glass plate (G) in the substantially upright position and in a non-contact state; a cleaning agent washing device (3) configured to supply to a surface of the glass plate a cleaning liquid from the fluid guide (8); a high-pressure liquid spray washing device (4) including a vertically movable high-pressure liquid spray element (19) that ejects a high-pressure liquid spray to both surfaces of the glass plate; and a water removing device (6) including a water removing element (30) extending vertically to apply an air knife which is a membranous air jet to the surfaces of the glass plate.
