[0036] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, this embodiment provides a cup holder conveying device, including a material taking mechanism 1 and a feeding mechanism 2 having a feeding channel. The feeding channel of the feeding mechanism 2 is used to convey the cup holder, and the material taking mechanism 1 is used to suck the cup holder from the feeding channel to the production line, and then place the cup body on the cup holder of the production line, with at least one cup body placed on each cup holder, and finally the cup body and the cup holder are packaged with a packaging film to complete the packaging process.

[0037] The material picking mechanism 1 comprises a base 101, a rotating base 102 rotatably mounted on the base 101, a material picking seat 103 rotatably mounted on the rotating base 102, a first suction assembly 104, a second suction assembly 105, and a driver 106. The rotating base 102 is arranged such that the rotation axis of the rotating base 102 and the rotation axis of the material picking seat 103 are arranged at intervals and parallel to each other, and the material picking seat 103 is eccentrically mounted. The rotation axis of the rotating base 102 is horizontally arranged, the rotation axis of the material picking seat 103 is horizontally arranged, and the rotation axis of the material picking seat 103 rotates around the rotation axis of the rotating base 102. The driver 106 is directly or indirectly connected to the rotating seat 102 and the material picking seat 103, so that the rotating seat 102 and the material picking seat 103 rotate respectively. The driver 106 can be a motor that drives the rotating seat 102 and the material picking seat 103 to rotate at the same time. The driver 106 can also be two motors that drive the rotating seat 102 and the material picking seat 103 to rotate respectively. In this embodiment, one motor is used to drive the rotating seat 102 and the material picking seat 103 to rotate at the same time, which not only saves costs and reduces the volume of the material picking mechanism 1, but also allows the rotating seat 102 and the material picking seat 103 to rotate or stop at the same time, ensuring the rotation coordination of the rotating seat 102 and the material picking seat 103.

[0038] The first suction component 104 and the second suction component 105 can both be used to absorb the cup holder, which is generally a piece of paper or a paper holder. In this embodiment, the cup holder is a piece of paper, and the cup holder has a paper surface to be sucked. The first suction component 104 and the second suction component 105 are arranged on the material picking seat 103 at circumferential intervals along the rotation axis of the material picking seat 103. The first suction component 104 and the second suction component 105 each have one, and the first suction component 104 and the second suction component 105 are distributed at 180°. The first suction component 104 and the second suction component 105 are mirror-symmetrical. Since the material picking seat 103 is eccentrically installed, the first suction component 104 and the second suction component 105 can be closer to the feeding channel when sucking the cup holder and closer to the production line for packaging the cup holder when carrying and placing the cup holder. The feeding channel is located on the moving path of the first suction component 104 and the second suction component 105. The driver 106 is connected to the rotating seat 102 and the material picking seat 103 to drive the first suction component 104 and the second suction component 105 to alternately approach or move away from the feeding channel. When the first suction component 104 approaches the feeding channel, the second suction component 105 moves away from the feeding channel. When the first suction component 104 moves away from the feeding channel, the second suction component 105 approaches the feeding channel. The driver 106 drives the rotating seat 102 and the material picking seat 103 to rotate, so that the first suction component 104 and the second suction component 105 alternately approach the feeding channel, so that the first suction component 104 and the second suction component 105 take turns to suck the cup holder in the feeding channel and move it to a designated place.

[0039] When the cup holder conveying device is working, the feeding mechanism 2 is used to convey the cup holder first, and the cup holder is conveyed along the feeding channel. Then the picking mechanism 1 is started, and the driver 106 drives the rotating seat 102 to rotate, thereby driving the picking seat 103 eccentrically installed on the rotating seat 102 and the first suction component 104 and the second suction component 105 on the picking seat 103 to alternately approach the feeding channel, so that the first suction component 104 and the second suction component 105 can alternately suck the cup holder on the feeding channel. Since the picking seat 103 can rotate relative to the rotating seat 102, that is, the picking seat 103 can rotate driven by the rotating seat 102 or can rotate by itself, it can be ensured that the first suction component 104 and the second suction component 105 can absorb the cup holder in a direction perpendicular to the paper flower surface of the cup holder, and ensure that the first suction component 104 and the second suction component 105 are perpendicular to the paper surface of the cup holder when picking up the cup holder, and the first suction component 104 and the second suction component 105 can place the cup holder vertically on the production line when placing it. Exemplarily, the feeding channel is located above the material picking mechanism 1, and the production line for packaging the cup holder is located below the material picking mechanism 1. The paper flower surface of the cup holder is placed tilted downward. The first suction component 104 and the second suction component 105 are driven by the rotating seat 102 to alternately approach the feeding channel and absorb the cup holder. The first suction component 104 and the second suction component 105 are driven by the material picking seat 103 to rotate, so that the first suction component 104 and the second suction component 105 absorb the cup holder in a direction perpendicular to the paper flower surface of the cup holder. After the first suction component 104 and the second suction component 105 absorb the cup holder, the first suction component 104 and the second suction component 105 alternately approach the production line and place the cup holder on the production line from top to bottom, so that the production line can package the cup holder and the cup body together. By driving the rotating seat 102 to rotate, the first suction component 104 can suck the cup holder upward while the second suction component 105 can place the cup holder downward on the production line. The first suction component 104 can suck the cup holder upward while the second suction component 105 can place the cup holder downward on the production line. When the first suction component 104 places the cup holder on the production line, the second suction component 105 is on a moving path close to the feeding channel. When the second suction component 105 places the cup holder on the production line, the first suction component 104 is on a moving path close to the feeding channel, thereby realizing continuous conveying of the cup holder, improving the conveying efficiency of the cup holder, and thereby improving the production efficiency of cup products.

[0040] Furthermore, the base 101 is rotatably mounted with an axle, the rotating seat 102 is connected to the driver 106 via the axle, a connecting shaft is provided on the material picking seat 103, an axial hole is opened on the rotating seat 102, the material picking seat 103 is installed in the axial hole of the rotating seat 102 through the cooperation of the connecting shaft, bearing and expansion sleeve, and the connecting shaft is connected to the driver 106, so that the driver 106 can rotate the rotating seat 102 and the material picking seat 103 at the same time, the material picking seat 103 can rotate while the rotating seat 102 rotates, and the paper tray is adsorbed or placed once every 120° rotation of the rotating seat 102 and every 180° rotation of the material picking seat 103.

[0041] In one embodiment, the material-retrieving mechanism 1 further comprises a first driving wheel 107 rotatably mounted on the base 101, a first driven wheel 108 rotatably mounted on the rotating seat 102, and a first transmission belt 109 sleeved on the first driving wheel 107 and the first driven wheel 108. The base 101 is provided with a first tensioning wheel 119 to achieve the tensioning of the first transmission belt 109, the driver 106 is transmission-connected with the first driving wheel 107 through the reducer 118, and the first driven wheel 108 is transmission-connected with the rotating seat 102, thereby driving the rotating seat 102 to rotate, and when the rotating seat 102 rotates, it can drive the material-retrieving seat 103 to rotate around the rotation axis of the rotating seat 102. The diameter of the first driven wheel 108 is larger than that of the first driving wheel 107, and the first driving wheel 107 and the first driven wheel 108 are driven to rotate by the driver 106, thereby driving the material-retrieving seat 103 and the rotating seat 102 to rotate around the rotation axis of the first driven wheel 108.

[0042] Furthermore, the base 101 includes a plurality of support plates, which are sequentially connected to form a receiving space, and the first driving wheel 107, the first driven wheel 108, the first transmission belt 109, and the first tensioning wheel 119 are located in the receiving space to achieve dust prevention.

[0043] Optionally, an origin detection sensor 120 is installed on the base 101. The origin detection sensor 120 is used to detect the position of the rotating base 102, so that the driver 106 can control the rotation of the rotating base 102, and then accurately control the first suction component 104 and the second suction component 105 to alternately suck the cup holder.

[0044] Optionally, the material picking mechanism 1 further includes a counterweight 110 disposed on the rotating seat 102. The counterweight 110 and the material picking seat 103 are arranged at intervals along the radial direction of the first driven wheel 108, and the rotation axis of the rotating seat 102 is located between the counterweight 110 and the rotation axis of the material picking seat 103. The projection of the rotating seat 102 along the rotation axis is elliptical or track-shaped. The material picking seat 103 is mounted on the end face of the rotating seat 102 and close to one of the outer arc surfaces, and the counterweight 110 is sleeved on the other outer arc surface of the material picking seat 103. Since the material picking seat 103 is eccentrically mounted on the rotating seat 102, the counterweight 110 is disposed on the rotating seat 102, and the counterweight 110 is used to balance the weight of the material picking seat 103 and the first suction assembly 104 and the second suction assembly 105, so that the rotation of the rotating seat 102 is more stable, and the life of the rotating seat 102 and the wheel axle is improved.

[0045] In one embodiment, the first suction assembly 104 includes a plurality of first suction devices 111. The second suction assembly 105 includes a plurality of second suction devices 112. The first suction devices 111 and the second suction devices 112 are suction cups or suction nozzles. The material picking seat 103 has a first mounting surface 113 and a second mounting surface 114 which are separated from each other, and a plurality of first suction devices 111 are arranged at intervals on the first mounting surface 113, and a plurality of second suction devices 112 are arranged at intervals on the second mounting surface 114. The plurality of first suction devices 111 are arranged at intervals in sequence along the direction of the rotation axis of the material picking seat 103, and the plurality of second suction devices 112 are arranged at intervals in sequence along the direction of the rotation axis of the material picking seat 103. The plurality of first suction devices 111 and the plurality of second suction devices 112 are used to improve the stability of the cup holder suction.

[0046] Furthermore, the material picking seat 103 has a first mounting surface 113 and a second mounting surface 114 which are opposite to each other, a plurality of first adsorbents 111 are mounted on the first mounting surface 113, and a plurality of second adsorbents 112 are mounted on the second mounting surface 114. When the material picking seat 103 rotates, the first adsorbents 111 and the second adsorbents 112 can alternately adsorb the cup holder along a direction perpendicular to the paper surface of the cup holder.

[0047] Optionally, the material picking seat 103 includes a U-shaped frame 121 and a first picking paperboard 122 and a second picking paperboard 123 both mounted on the U-shaped frame 121. The first picking paperboard 122 and the second picking paperboard 123 are respectively mounted on two outer sides of the U-shaped frame 121 that are away from each other, the first mounting surface 113 is located on the first picking paperboard 122, and the second mounting surface 114 is located on the second picking paperboard 123. When the first picking paperboard 122 and the second picking paperboard 123 are mounted on the U-shaped frame 121, an avoidance groove is formed, and one end of the first adsorber 111 and one end of the second adsorber 112 are both located in the avoidance groove, so as to avoid interference between the first adsorber 111 and the second adsorber 112 and the U-shaped frame 121, and facilitate the installation of the first adsorber 111 and the second adsorber 112.

[0048] The U-shaped frame 121 forms a pipe connection groove, and the inner wall of the pipe connection groove is provided with a first pipe joint 125, a second pipe joint 126, and a third pipe joint 127, which facilitates the connection between the pipeline and the first adsorber 111 and the second adsorber 112. The pipe connection groove can not only reduce the weight of the U-shaped frame 121, but also avoid interference between the pipeline and other components, and facilitate the layout of the pipeline. By connecting the pipeline to the pump body, the first adsorber 111 and the second adsorber 112 form a negative pressure to adsorb the cup holder.

[0049] Furthermore, a rotating slip ring 124 is installed on the base 101. The rotating slip ring 124 is an electrical component responsible for connecting the rotating body and transmitting energy and signals. A fourth pipe joint 128 is provided on the rotating slip ring 124. The rotating slip ring 124 and the fourth pipe joint 128 are used to connect the pipelines to provide negative air pressure for the first adsorber 111 and the second adsorber 112 on the material picking seat 103. The rotating slip ring 124 is connected to the vacuum generator through a fourth pipe joint 128, and the first pipe joint 125 and the second pipe joint 126 are connected to another fourth pipe joint 128 through a third pipe joint 127, so that the cup holder conveying device only needs four air pipes to complete the pipeline layout.

[0050] In one embodiment, the material taking mechanism 1 further comprises a positioning pulley 115 mounted on the base 101, a second driven wheel 116 rotatably mounted on the material taking seat 103, and a second transmission belt 117 sleeved on the positioning pulley 115 and the second driven wheel 116. The positioning pulley 115 is fixedly mounted on the base 101, the positioning pulley 115 is coaxially arranged with the first driven wheel 108, the axle of the first driven wheel 108 directly passes through the wheel hole on the positioning pulley 115 and is in transmission connection with the rotating seat 102, driving the rotating seat 102 to rotate, and the positioning pulley 115 is fixed. An axial hole is opened on the rotating seat 102, and the material taking seat 103 is provided with a connecting shaft.

[0051] The driver 106 is in transmission connection with the rotating seat 102 through the wheel shaft. The material picking seat 103 is in transmission connection with the second driven wheel 116 through the connecting shaft passing through the shaft hole. The rotating seat 102 is equipped with a second tensioning wheel to realize the tensioning of the second transmission belt 117. The rotating seat 102 is in transmission connection with the driver 106 to realize rotation. Since the material picking seat 103 is installed on the rotating seat 102, the material picking seat 103 can rotate around the axis of the rotating seat 102 along with the rotating seat 102. In addition, since the connecting seat on the material picking seat 103 passes through the axial hole on the rotating seat 102, the rotating seat 102 directly pushes the material picking seat 103 to rotate around the axis of the rotating seat 102 when it rotates. At the same time, through the cooperation of the positioning pulley 115, the second driven wheel 116, and the second transmission belt 117, the material picking seat 103 rotates around the rotation axis of the second driven wheel 116 to achieve the self-rotation of the material picking seat 103. That is, the present application can simultaneously drive the rotating seat 102 and the material picking seat 103 to rotate around the rotation axis of the rotating seat 102 through the driver 106 to achieve the revolution of the material picking seat 103, and can also drive the material picking seat 103 to revolve around its own axis to achieve the self-rotation of the material picking seat 103.

[0052] Optionally, the gear ratio of the positioning pulley 115 and the second driven pulley 116 is 3:2, and the transmission ratio of the positioning pulley 115 and the second driven pulley 116 is 2:3, so that when the first suction component 104 or the second suction component 105 adsorbs the cup holder, the first suction component 104 or the second suction component 105 rotates 120° along with the wheel shaft and the rotating seat 102, ensuring that the first suction component 104 or the second suction component 105 is perpendicular to the paper surface of the cup holder.

[0053] Optionally, the feeding mechanism 2 includes a frame 201, a transmission wheel group rotatably mounted on the frame 201, a conveyor belt group 202 mounted on the transmission wheel group, a transmission shaft 203 rotatably mounted on the frame 201, a one-way bearing group mounted on the transmission shaft 203 and transmission-connected to the transmission wheel group, and a pusher 204 with a telescopic rod. The telescopic rod of the pusher 204 is transmission-connected to the transmission shaft 203 to drive the one-way bearing group to rotate unidirectionally. The feeding channel is located on the conveyor belt group 202, and the feeding channel has a feeding end 205 and a blanking end 206. The cup holder is stacked on the feeding channel from the feeding end 205 along the extension direction of the feeding channel, and then moves along the feeding channel to the blanking end 206. The first suction component 104 and the second suction component 105 alternately approach / move away from the blanking end 206 of the feeding channel, and the picking mechanism 1 sucks the cup holder from the blanking end 206. Specifically, the one-way bearing group includes at least one one-way bearing body 207, which is a bearing that can rotate freely in one direction and is locked in another direction. The one-way bearing is also called an overrunning clutch. The conveyor belt group 202 includes a plurality of conveyor belts and conveyor wheels that drive the conveyor belts to move. The conveyor belt can be a belt or a conveyor chain. The one-way bearing group is connected to the conveyor wheel through the transmission shaft 203, so that the conveyor belt can drive the cup holder to move. The pusher 204 is a cylinder. The telescopic rod of the pusher 204 is extended by utilizing the characteristic that the one-way bearing group can only rotate in one direction. The telescopic rod drives the one-way bearing group to rotate in one direction through the transmission of the transmission shaft 203, so that the conveyor belt drives the cup holder of the conveyor belt to move in the direction close to the blanking end 206. When the telescopic rod of the pusher 204 is retracted, the transmission shaft 203 and the conveyor belt do not move. When the telescopic rod of the pusher 204 is extended again, the conveyor belt continues to convey the cup holder, and finally realizes the intermittent delivery of the cup holder.

[0054] Furthermore, the conveyor belt group 202 has a straight section and an inclined section arranged in sequence. The straight section extends horizontally, and the inclined section extends downwardly in a direction away from the straight section. The loading end 205 is located at one end of the straight section, and the other end of the straight section extends in a direction close to one end of the inclined section. The blanking end 206 is located at the other end of the inclined section. Specifically, the conveyor belt group 202 includes a first conveyor belt 209 and a second conveyor belt 210. There are two first conveyor belts 209 and they are arranged at intervals along the width direction of the cup holder conveying path. There are two second conveyor belts 210 and they are arranged at intervals along the width direction of the cup holder conveying path. The two first conveyor belts 209 and the two second conveyor belts 210 correspond to each other one by one. The first conveyor belt 209 is arranged horizontally, and the straight section is located at the first conveyor belt 209. The second conveyor belt 210 is arranged inclined from top to bottom, and the inclined section is located at the second conveyor belt 210. The one-way bearing group includes at least two one-way bearing bodies 207. The one-way bearing body 207 is installed on the frame 201 through the bearing seat, and the telescopic rod of the pusher 204 is connected to the one-way bearing body 207 or the bearing seat to drive the one-way bearing body 207 to rotate. At least one one-way bearing body 207 is connected to the conveying wheel of the first conveyor belt 209, and at least one one-way bearing body 207 is connected to the conveying wheel of the second conveyor belt 210. In this way, the pusher 204 cooperates with the one-way bearing body 207, so that the first conveyor belt 209 and the second conveyor belt 210 can convey the cup holder. The second conveyor belt 210 is tilted, so that the paper surface of the cup holder is tilted downward, which is convenient for the material picking mechanism 1 to adsorb.

[0055] Optionally, the frame 201 includes an upper paper stopper 212, a lower paper stopper 215, and a mounting beam 213. The frame 201 is fixedly installed by the mounting beam 213. The upper paper stopper 212 and the lower paper stopper 215 are arranged at intervals from top to bottom, and the upper paper stopper 212 and the lower paper stopper 215 are both located at the blanking end 206 to prevent the cup holder from falling out along the blanking end 206 of the inclined second conveyor belt 210 due to gravity. When the picking mechanism 1 absorbs the cup holder, the cup holder is deformed and is sucked out from the blanking end 206 separated from the second conveyor belt 210.

[0056] Furthermore, the feeding mechanism 2 further includes a roller 214 rotatably mounted on the frame 201. The roller 214 is located at the lower end of the second conveyor belt 210, and the roller 214 is close to the blanking end 206. The roller 214 ensures that the cup holder will not fall on the second conveyor belt 210 inclined at 60 degrees, and ensures that the cup holder can be smoothly sucked out.

[0057] In one embodiment, the feeding mechanism 2 further includes a pushing block 211. The pushing block 211 is installed on the straight section of the conveyor belt group 202. The pushing block 211 is installed on the first conveyor belt 209 and moves with the first conveyor belt 209. The pushing block 211 can push the cup holder on the first conveyor belt 209 to the second conveyor belt 210, and the pushing block 211 can ensure that there is no gap between the cup holders.

[0058] Optionally, the first conveyor belt 209 is provided with a paper bin, and the cup holder is conveyed to the first conveyor belt 209 through the paper bin.

[0059] Furthermore, the projection of the transmission shaft 203 along the direction of its own rotation axis is hexagonal. The transmission shaft 203 is a hexagonal shaft, which is a kind of transmission mechanism. It is characterized by compact structure, light weight, high rigidity and high-speed performance, high load-bearing capacity, rigidity and bending resistance, long service life, etc., and is suitable for occasions of transmitting large torque and large load. The hexagonal shaft of the present application can better maintain the shape when subjected to torque and axial force, thereby improving the transmission stability and reliability of the feeding mechanism 2. The hexagonal shaft has six force-bearing surfaces, which can better disperse stress, thereby withstanding greater torque and pressure.

[0060] In one embodiment, the cup holder conveying device further comprises a blowing nozzle 208. The blowing nozzle 208 is mounted on the frame 201 and is located above the blanking end 206. The blowing nozzle 208 will blow a gap between adjacent cup holders to ensure that the picking mechanism 1 will not absorb two cup holders at the same time when absorbing the cup holders.

[0061] The cup holder conveying device of the present application has the characteristics of small size, simple maintenance and replacement, low cost, etc. The cup holder conveying device has a high conveying speed, and can take 150 to 300 cup holders in 1 minute, with high conveying efficiency.

These descriptions are only for explaining the principle of the present invention and cannot be interpreted as limiting the scope of protection of the present invention in any way. Based on the explanations herein, those skilled in the art can associate other specific implementations of the present invention without paying creative labor, and these methods will fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.
