Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of glass bottle conveying technology, and more specifically, to a glass bottle conveying mechanism. Background Technology

[0002] In the glass bottle manufacturing industry, efficient conveying and positioning mechanisms are key factors in ensuring smooth production processes and improving efficiency. Traditional glass bottle conveying mechanisms often use mechanical clamping or suction cups to fix and move glass bottles. While these methods meet the needs of automated production to some extent, they often suffer from problems such as complex equipment, high maintenance costs, and potential damage to the glass bottle surface. Especially in glass bottle conveyor lines, how to quickly and accurately install and remove glass bottles while ensuring their integrity has become a pressing technical challenge.

[0003] In existing glass bottle conveying mechanisms, some use complex mechanical structures to position and release glass bottles. This not only increases the manufacturing cost of the equipment but may also lead to a decrease in production efficiency, as complex mechanical structures often mean a higher failure rate and longer maintenance time. Other mechanisms use vacuum suction cups to adsorb glass bottles. Although this method reduces physical contact with the surface of the glass bottle to some extent, the vacuum system has high energy consumption, and its adsorption effect is not stable for glass bottles with irregular shapes or poor sealing at the bottle mouth, which can easily lead to detachment or damage. Therefore, in view of the above technical problems, a glass bottle conveying mechanism is proposed here. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a glass bottle conveying mechanism that allows for quick installation by simply inflating an airbag and abutting it against the bottle opening. It also facilitates the deflating of the airbag to disassemble the glass bottle, enabling rapid assembly and disassembly of glass bottles with a simple device. This greatly reduces the cost of the conveying device and improves the efficiency of glass bottle assembly and disassembly, which is beneficial to the processing and production of glass bottles.

[0005] This utility model is achieved through the following technical solution:

[0006] A glass bottle conveying mechanism includes a base and a mounting base. A conveyor belt is rotatably connected to the inner side of the mounting base. A fixing rod is fixedly connected to the bottom of the conveyor belt. A mounting plate is fixedly connected to the bottom of the fixing rod. A fixing cylinder is fixedly connected to the bottom of the mounting plate. The fixing cylinder has a hollow structure. An air bladder is fixedly connected to the bottom of the fixing cylinder, and the air bladder communicates with the internal space of the fixing cylinder. An inflation device is fixedly connected to the upper side of the mounting plate. An air pipe is fixedly connected between the inflation device and the fixing cylinder. An exhaust port is opened on the outside of the fixing cylinder. An exhaust mechanism is installed on the outside of the fixing cylinder.

[0007] Preferably, a support plate is fixedly connected between the base and the mounting base, and the number of support plates is two sets arranged symmetrically.

[0008] Preferably, a drive motor is externally fixedly connected to the mounting base, and the drive motor provides a power source for the conveyor belt.

[0009] Preferably, the number of fixing rods is several groups arranged at equal intervals.

[0010] Preferably, the exhaust mechanism includes a limiting plate, a stop plate, a baffle, and a spring. The limiting plate is fixedly connected to the outside of the fixed cylinder, and the stop plate is fixedly connected to the bottom of the limiting plate. The stop plate and the fixed cylinder are fixedly connected.

[0011] Preferably, the baffle is slidably connected to the inner side of the limiting plate, a spring is fixedly connected between the upper side of the baffle and the lower side of the mounting plate, the baffle abuts against the upper side of the abutment plate, and the baffle completely covers the exhaust port.

[0012] Preferably, a control rod is fixedly connected to the outside of the baffle.

[0013] Preferably, a pad is fixedly connected to the upper side of the base.

[0014] The technical solution of this utility model has at least the following beneficial effects:

[0015] This invention proposes a glass bottle conveying mechanism. After the glass bottle is fed into the conveyor line, an air bladder is first inserted into the bottle mouth. Then, the inflation device is activated, and gas is injected into a fixed cylinder connected to the air bladder through an air pipe. This causes the air bladder to expand and fit tightly against the bottle mouth, thus completing the positioning and installation of the glass bottle. This mechanism is not only simple and reliable but also effectively avoids direct physical damage to the surface of the glass bottle. When the glass bottle needs to be conveyed to the next workstation for further processing, the conveyor belt is driven by a drive motor, smoothly moving the glass bottle forward. Upon reaching the target workstation, by operating the control lever, the baffle slides upward under the guidance of the limiting plate and compresses the spring, exposing the exhaust port. The gas in the air bladder is quickly discharged, causing the gas volume to shrink and separate from the bottle mouth, achieving rapid disassembly of the glass bottle. This mechanism is not only easy to operate but also greatly improves the efficiency of glass bottle transfer between different workstations and reduces labor costs. Attached Figure Description

Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0022] Please see Figure 1-4 The present invention discloses a glass bottle conveying mechanism, including a base 1 and a mounting base 2. A conveyor belt 4 is rotatably connected to the inner side of the mounting base 2. A fixing rod 6 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the conveyor belt 4. A mounting plate 7 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the fixing rod 6. A fixing cylinder 8 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the mounting plate 7. The fixing cylinder 8 has a hollow structure. An air bladder 9 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the fixing cylinder 8. The air bladder 9 is connected to the internal space of the fixing cylinder 8. An inflation device 10 is fixedly connected to the upper side of the mounting plate 7. An air pipe 11 is fixedly connected between the inflation device 10 and the fixing cylinder 8. An exhaust port 12 is opened on the outside of the fixing cylinder 8. An exhaust mechanism is installed on the outside of the fixing cylinder 8.

[0023] A support plate 3 is fixedly connected between the base 1 and the mounting base 2, and there are two sets of support plates 3 arranged symmetrically.

[0024] The mounting base 2 is externally fixedly connected to a drive motor 5, and the drive motor 5 provides a power source for the conveyor belt 4.

[0025] The number of fixed rods 6 is several groups, arranged at equal intervals.

[0026] The exhaust mechanism includes a limiting plate 13, a stop plate 14, a baffle 15, and a spring 16. The limiting plate 13 is fixedly connected to the outside of the fixed cylinder 8, and the stop plate 14 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the limiting plate 13. The stop plate 14 and the fixed cylinder 8 are fixedly connected. The spring 16 is provided to facilitate the reset of the baffle 15 and to ensure the airtightness of the fixed cylinder 8.

[0027] The baffle 15 is slidably connected to the inner side of the limiting plate 13. A spring 16 is fixedly connected between the upper side of the baffle 15 and the lower side of the mounting plate 7. The baffle 15 abuts against the upper side of the abutment plate 14 and completely covers the exhaust port 12.

[0030] The working principle of a glass bottle conveying mechanism based on an embodiment is as follows: When this device is used in a glass bottle manufacturing plant for glass bottle conveying assembly line operations, the air bladder 9 can be inserted into the bottle mouth. Then, the inflation device 10 is operated, and gas is injected into the fixed cylinder 8 through the air pipe 11. Since the air bladder 9 is connected to the internal space of the fixed cylinder 8, air can be injected into the air bladder 9 through the air pipe 11, causing the air bladder 9 to expand and tightly abut against the bottle mouth, thus completing the positioning and installation. Then, the drive motor 5 drives the conveyor belt 4 to transport the glass bottle to the next workstation. Upon reaching the next workstation, the baffle 15 can be guided upward by the limit plate 13 via the control lever 17, while simultaneously compressing the spring 16, thus exposing the exhaust port 12. This allows the airbag 9 to quickly separate from the glass bottle mouth, enabling rapid disassembly of the glass bottle. In summary, this device allows for rapid installation by simply inflating the airbag 9 and abutting it against the glass bottle mouth. It also facilitates the deflating of the airbag 9 to disassemble the glass bottle, enabling rapid assembly and disassembly of glass bottles with a simple device. This significantly reduces the cost of the conveying device and improves the efficiency of glass bottle assembly and disassembly, which is beneficial for glass bottle processing and production.
