Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of fluid filling equipment technology, specifically a multi-functional anti-drip filling head. Background Technology

[0002] In the liquid filling process, the filling head is a key component that directly contacts the material. Its sealing performance, ease of replacement, and positioning accuracy directly affect filling efficiency and product quality. Currently, most common filling heads use an O-ring seal structure, requiring pre-tightening force during installation and involving complex disassembly. Furthermore, replacing different specifications of filling rods requires complete disassembly of the valve core guide rod, making the operation cumbersome and demanding high operator skills. In addition, traditional filling heads are prone to dripping after filling, affecting cleanliness and material utilization. Due to their small size and limited installation space, filling heads require specialized tools and require limited space for disassembly. The small thread specifications mean that frequent disassembly may damage the fixing threads, and dimensional control during installation is difficult. The coaxiality of the rigid connection of the threads cannot be guaranteed each time, and each disassembly carries the potential risk of contaminating the filling liquid. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a multi-functional filling head that is compact, reliably sealed, easy to replace, and drip-proof, to improve filling efficiency, adapt to multi-specification production needs, and reduce maintenance costs and operational complexity.

[0024] The technical solutions of the present utility model will now be described with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present utility model:

[0025] like Figure 1-8 As shown, this utility model provides a multifunctional anti-drip filling head, including a valve body 1, a filling nozzle 2, a sealing rod 3, a valve core guide rod 4, a cylinder 5, and a cylinder fixing seat 8. The cylinder 5 and the filling nozzle 2 are respectively connected to both ends of the valve body 1. The cylinder fixing seat 8 is connected to the top of the valve body 1, and the cylinder body of the cylinder 5 is connected to the cylinder fixing seat 8. The cylinder fixing seat 8 is used to fix the cylinder body of the cylinder 5, ensuring its alignment and stable connection with the valve body 1. The lower end of the valve body 1 and the upper end of the filling nozzle 2 are connected by threads. An O-ring seal 11 is provided at the threaded joint surface of the two. The outer diameter of the O-ring seal 11 is 30±0.1mm, and the wire diameter is 3.5±0.1mm, to achieve a reliable static seal and prevent liquid leakage during the filling process.

[0026] The sealing rod 3 is slidably installed inside the filling nozzle 2, and its lower end engages with the outlet of the filling nozzle 2. It controls the flow of liquid by moving up and down to prevent dripping. The valve core guide rod 4 is installed inside the valve body 1. Its upper end is connected to the piston rod of the cylinder 5 through an elastic pin structure 6, and its lower end is connected to the upper end of the sealing rod 3 by a horizontally sliding snap-fit ​​structure 7.

[0027] The elastic pin structure 6 includes a quick-connect coupling 61, a quick-connect coupling positioning pin 62, and a positioning spring 63. The quick-connect coupling positioning pin 62 is elastically set inside the quick-connect coupling 61 by the positioning spring 63, and the quick-connect coupling positioning pin 62 is perpendicular to the valve core guide rod 4. The quick-connect coupling positioning pin 62 is provided with a V-groove 621, and the upper end of the valve core guide rod 4 is provided with an annular groove 41. The lower part of the V-groove 621 is engaged with the annular groove 41. Pressing the quick-connect coupling positioning pin 62 disengages the V-groove 621 from the annular groove 41 to unlock the valve core guide rod 4, facilitating quick disassembly. When the quick-connect coupling positioning pin 62 is released, the V-groove 621 engages with the annular groove 41 under the action of the positioning spring 63 to lock the valve core guide rod 4.

[0028] The cylinder mounting base 8 includes a through hole 81 for the valve core guide rod 4 to pass through and an annular hollow portion 82. The quick-connect connector 61 is disposed in the hollow portion 82 of the cylinder mounting base 8. The quick-connect connector 61 includes a base 611, the base 611 is provided with a channel 612 for the valve core guide rod 4 to pass through, and the end of the quick-connect connector 61 away from the base 611 is connected to the piston rod of the cylinder 5 through a connector.

[0029] The snap-fit ​​structure 7 includes a T-shaped groove 71 at the lower end of the valve core guide rod 4 and a protrusion 31 at the upper end of the sealing rod 3. The inner diameter of the T-shaped groove 71 is larger than the outer diameter of the protrusion 31. The protrusion 31 can slide along the horizontal direction of the T-shaped groove 71 to realize the engagement or separation of the valve core guide rod 4 and the sealing rod 3, which facilitates the replacement of sealing rods of different specifications.

[0030] A star-shaped sealing ring 10 is fitted in the middle of the valve core guide rod 4. The outer diameter of the star-shaped sealing ring 10 is 13.95±0.05mm and the thickness is 2.62±0.05mm. The outer diameter of the star-shaped sealing ring 10 is interference-fitted with the inner wall of the valve body 1, which not only ensures the sealing performance during movement but also reduces friction during movement and extends the service life.

[0031] A speed regulating valve 12 is installed in the piston movement air path of cylinder 5. The speed regulating valve 12 is used to adjust the movement speed of the cylinder piston, thereby controlling the stability of the filling process.

[0032] The operation process is as follows:

[0033] Normal filling process:

[0034] Cylinder 5 pushes valve core guide rod 4 downward, which drives sealing rod 3 to move downward through snap-fit ​​structure 7, opening the outlet of filling nozzle 2 and allowing liquid to flow out; when cylinder 5 retracts, sealing rod 3 moves upward to close the outlet, effectively preventing dripping.

[0035] Procedure for replacing a sealing rod (taking the replacement of a sealing rod of different specifications as an example):

[0036] Pressing the quick-connect fitting positioning pin 62 causes the valve core guide rod 4 to be positioned above the V-groove 621, which is wider at the top and narrower at the bottom. The inner diameter of the upper part of the V-groove 621 is larger than that of the lower part. After the quick-connect fitting positioning pin 62 moves downward, the valve core guide rod 4 is positioned above the V-groove 621, causing the lower part of the V-groove 621 to disengage from the annular groove 41 of the valve core guide rod 4, thus releasing the lock. The valve core guide rod 4 and the sealing rod 3 are then removed from the valve body 1 as a whole. The sealing rod 3 is then slid horizontally, causing its protrusion 31 to slide out of the T-groove 71 of the valve core guide rod 4, thus completing the locking mechanism. Separate the valve core guide rod; take a new sealing rod of the required specifications, align its protrusion 31 with the T-groove 71, and push it horizontally until it is locked in place; reinstall the assembled valve core guide rod 4 and sealing rod 3 into the valve body 1, ensuring that the upper end of the valve core guide rod 4 passes through the through hole 81 of the cylinder fixing seat 8 and extends into the channel 612 of the quick-connect coupling 61; release the quick-connect coupling positioning pin 62, and under the action of the positioning spring 63, the quick-connect coupling positioning pin 62 automatically returns to its original position, and the lower part of the V-groove 621 is re-locked into the annular groove 41 of the valve core guide rod 4, completing the locking.

[0037] Sealing ring replacement and maintenance:

[0038] If the star-shaped sealing ring 10 or the O-ring 11 is worn, the valve core guide rod 4 or the filling nozzle 2 can be removed and replaced respectively. The operation is simple, requires no professional tools, and significantly reduces maintenance costs and time.

[0039] This invention utilizes a combination of an elastic pin structure and a snap-fit ​​structure to achieve rapid disassembly and replacement of the valve core guide rod and sealing rod, significantly improving replacement efficiency and reducing the skill requirements for operators. The dual sealing design of a star-shaped sealing ring and an O-ring ensures reliable dynamic and static sealing, preventing liquid leakage. The introduction of a speed control valve further optimizes the control performance of the filling process, making it suitable for liquid filling equipment in various industries such as beverages, daily chemicals, and pharmaceuticals.

[0040] The above embodiments are merely some, not all, of the embodiments of this utility model. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this utility model without inventive effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.
