Abstract: A machine for cutting flat glass sheets has a fixed frame for supporting a worktable, which can be lifted, with rotation device, for loading and unloading sheets or sheet portions, and a movable bridge capable of performing a translational motion with respect to the worktable which supports a cutting head capable of moving on the bridge. The movable bridge slides on rails associated with a fixed frame and the rotation device for the liftable worktable has at least one lifting arm, which is fixed to the movable worktable and pivoted to the fixed frame, the lifting arm being contoured so as to extend around and not affect, during its rotation, the rails for the movable bridge, a portion of the rails extending so as to affect the region of rotation of the lifting arm.

Abstract: A tilting device for cropping a sheet of laminated glass, comprising two side-by-side rows of suckers, each supported by a bar of a frame which is pivoted, on the opposite side with respect to the suckers, to a supporting structure, the bars both resting on the same elements for the alternating lifting and lowering of the bars, which are adapted to produce the simultaneous alternating tilting of both of the frames and of the corresponding rows of suckers.

Abstract: A tool changing device for a cutting head of a machine for cutting flat glass sheets, the tool changing device comprising: a bridge; a carriage for supporting the cutting head, the carriage being slidingly attached to the bridge for translation along the bridge; an electric motor that provides for translational motion of the carriage with respect to the bridge; and a tool supporting slider, which is configured to support a plurality of tools such that the tools can be automatically exchanged between the tool supporting slider and the cutting head, the tool supporting slider coupled, by way of reversible fixing elements to the cutting head supporting carriage during work by the cutting head, and wherein the tool supporting slider is uncoupled from the cutting head supporting carriage during tool changing operations.
