This invention relates to the field of bottle cap orientation adjustment technology, specifically to a bottle cap orientation adjustment device and method. The adjustment device is used to adjust the orientation of bottle caps with straws conveyed on a conveying mechanism, ensuring that the caps face the same direction. The conveying mechanism includes a conveying channel that conveys the bottle caps along an arc-shaped trajectory. This invention adjusts the orientation of the bottle caps during the conveying process by setting elastic mechanisms and adjustment mechanisms on both sides of the conveying channel along the arc-shaped trajectory. This ensures that after adjustment by the adjustment mechanism, all bottle caps rotate at different angles, achieving uniform orientation adjustment and avoiding missed adjustments. Preferably, the elastic mechanism rubs against the straw, causing the straw to rotate and drive the cap to rotate, thus completing the orientation adjustment without the need for an additional rotating device. This solution differs from the techniques in the prior art, enabling continuous adjustment of bottle caps during conveying.

This invention relates to a method for disassembling and reassembling fluorinated furnace slag containers, specifically within the field of radioactive waste collection technology. The method is applied to the disassembly and reassembly assembly of fluorinated furnace slag containers, used in conjunction with the slag containers. Before execution, the slag containers are placed in the disassembly / reassembly area. The method includes disassembly and reassembly: during disassembly, an industrial robot A, equipped with a cover disassembly / reassembly mechanism, automatically unscrews spring bolt A and transfers the cover to an overhead platform; reassembly is performed in reverse. The overhead platform has a positioning pit with perforated holes for easy replacement of the sealing ring. The advantages of this invention are: fully automated disassembly and reassembly, replacing high-intensity manual labor and significantly improving efficiency; personnel only need to remotely monitor or briefly enter the overhead area, achieving human-machine isolation and greatly reducing the risk of radiation exposure; the use of an electromagnetic chuck with floating buffer avoids rigid collision damage to the flange sealing surface; the perforated hole design of the overhead platform allows for convenient replacement of the sealing ring without flipping the cover; and the use of anti-loosening spring bolts prevents parts from scattering, simplifying automated material management.

The application relates to the technical field of can body sealing, and discloses a can body automatic high-speed sealing device, which comprises a conveying mechanism, a supporting frame and a first electric push rod. The can body automatic high-speed sealing device is provided with a pressure sensing mechanism. When the second electric push rod drives the clamping mechanism to clamp the can bottle, the pressure rod extrudes the spring and triggers the pressure sensor to monitor the clamping force in real time. The controller automatically adjusts the extension and retraction amount of the second electric push rod according to a preset threshold value, so that the bottle body is prevented from being broken or slipping due to improper clamping force, and the sealing stability is improved. The spring and the pressure rod are cooperatively designed to form a buffering mechanism. When the surface of the can bottle is uneven, the elastic deformation of the spring can adaptively compensate the clamping force, so that the different shapes of cans are uniformly stressed. An industrial camera shoots the can body position, the bottle mouth state and the cover body placement in real time, and judges the defects such as can deviation and bottle mouth deformation through image recognition. If the detection is abnormal, the controller immediately suspends the sealing and alarms through an alarm.

This invention discloses a capping mechanism for small-pitch double-bottle bottles. The mechanism includes a frame, a fixing clamp, and two toothed capping heads. A movable groove is provided at the bottom of the frame, and the fixing clamp is flexibly and vertically positioned inside the groove. A vertically movable fixed plate is provided at the top of the frame, with two rotatable rotating rods on the plate.

A pressure sensor is provided at the bottom of the calibration rod, and the pressure sensor is electrically connected to the controller. This invention improves the tightening efficiency between the cap and the opening of the double-bottle bottle.

A control device performs a method for configuring a capping machine, which is operable to engage a threaded cap with a threaded neck of a container. In the method, angular positions, APs, are sequentially selected from a predefined set of APs of the cap, where each AP corresponds to an orientation of the cap relative to the neck. For each AP, a cap mounting test is performed, in which the capping machine is operated to engage a plurality of caps, arranged in the selected AP, with the neck on a respective container. The capping operations are evaluated for consistent capping performance. The method is performed until consistent capping performance is detected for a sequence of adjacent APs corresponding to a sequence of spatially adjacent cap orientations. The capping machine is then configured by setting its operational AP in relation to the sequence of adjacent APs.
