[0002] There are three main types of packaging for large infusion storage: soft bags, glass bottles, and plastic bottles. With the continuous research and development of pharmaceutical companies, upright soft bags have emerged in recent years. This type of packaging is between plastic bottles and soft bags, but it also has certain characteristics of plastic bottles and soft bags. First, it is flat, but can be placed upright. In addition, it is relatively soft overall. During use, it will drain liquid by itself under atmospheric pressure like a soft bag, without letting outside air enter it. Because its overall appearance is more like a plastic bottle, most companies arrange it together with the plastic bottle workshop during production, and even produce it on the same line to save costs. At present, there is only packaging equipment that can produce plastic bottles alone. The current equipment can realize upright conveying and stacking of plastic bottles. Compared with plastic bottles, upright soft bags can also be placed upright, but their bottles are too soft to realize upright conveying and stacking. They need to be produced by horizontal conveying and vertical grabbing.

[0003] Therefore, how to realize the conveying production of plastic bottles and upright soft bags is a technical problem to be solved urgently by those skilled in the art. Summary of the invention

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0020] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0021] Please refer to Figures 1 to 4 , Figure 1 The present invention provides a schematic diagram of the overall structure of a specific implementation method.

[0022] In a specific embodiment provided by the present invention, it mainly includes a lane dividing component 1, a bottle collecting component 2, a stepping and sorting component 3 and a robot 4. The inlet end of the bottle collecting component 2 is connected with the outlet end of the lane dividing component 1, the stepping and sorting component 3 is arranged at the outlet end of the bottle collecting component 2, and the robot 4 is used to grab the plastic bottles in the bottle collecting component 2 and the upright soft bags in the stepping and sorting component 3. The bottle collecting component 2 is provided with a plastic bottle stop bottle mechanism 201, a plastic bottle limiting mechanism 202, an upright soft bag in-place detection 203 and an upright soft bag separating mechanism 204. The plastic bottle stop bottle mechanism 201 and the plastic bottle limiting mechanism 202 are located at the bottle collecting component 2 away from the outlet end, and the upright soft bag in-place detection 203 and the upright soft bag separating mechanism 204 are located at the bottle collecting component 2 close to the outlet end.

[0023] The inlet end of the bottle collecting component 2 is connected with the outlet end of the lane dividing component 1, the stepping and sorting component 3 is arranged at the outlet end of the bottle collecting component 2, the lane dividing component 1 is used to divide the plastic bottles or upright soft bags to form multi-lane conveying, the bottle collecting component 2 is used to convey the plastic bottles or upright soft bags, the stepping and sorting component 3 is used to collect the upright soft bags, the robot 4 is used to grab the plastic bottles in the bottle collecting component 2 and the upright soft bags in the stepping and sorting component 3, the bottle collecting component 2 is provided with a plastic bottle stop bottle mechanism 201, a plastic bottle limit mechanism 202, an upright soft bag in place detection 203 and an upright soft bag separation mechanism 204, a plastic bottle stop bottle mechanism 201, a plastic bottle limit mechanism 202, an upright soft bag in place detection mechanism 203 and an upright soft bag separation mechanism 204, The bottle mechanism 201 and the plastic bottle limiting mechanism 202 are located at the bottle collecting component 2 away from the outlet end. The plastic bottle limiting mechanism 202 is used to stack the delivered plastic bottles. The plastic bottle blocking mechanism 201 is used to block the subsequent delivered plastic bottles when the plastic bottle limiting mechanism 202 stacks a certain number of plastic bottles. The upright soft bag in-place detection 203 and the upright soft bag separation mechanism 204 are located at the bottle collecting component 2 near the outlet end. The upright soft bag separation mechanism 204 is used to collect the upright soft bags in multiple channels. The upright soft bag in-place detection 203 is used to detect whether the upright soft bag separation mechanism 204 has completed the collection. It should be noted that the plastic bottle blocking mechanism 201, the plastic bottle limiting mechanism 202, the upright soft bag in-place detection 203 and the upright soft bag separation mechanism 204 are sequentially arranged, designed and installed at the position of the bottle collecting component 2, and are at a certain distance from the inlet end of the bottle collecting component 2 to collect plastic bottles.

[0024] Specifically, in the actual application process, when producing plastic bottles, the upright soft bag in-place detection 203, the upright soft bag separation mechanism 204 and the stepping sorting component 3 do not work. For the plastic bottles that are conveyed vertically, the plastic bottles are divided from single-channel conveying to multi-channel conveying after passing through the dividing channel component 1, and continue to be conveyed forward along the bottle collecting component 2. The plastic bottle limiting mechanism 202 is first pushed to the right, and the plastic bottles are accumulated at the plastic bottle limiting mechanism 202. The plastic bottle limiting mechanism 202 completes the plastic bottle accumulation, and the plastic bottle blocking mechanism 201 extends to block the subsequent plastic bottles. Then the plastic bottle limiting mechanism 202 retreats to the left, and the accumulated plastic bottles naturally reach the plastic bottle grabbing station under the transportation of the bottle collecting component 2; when producing upright soft bags When the plastic bottle stop mechanism 201 and the plastic bottle limiting mechanism 202 do not work, the upright soft bags are transported to the upright soft bag separating mechanism 204 through the bottle collecting component 2. When there are upright soft bags in each lane in the upright soft bag separating mechanism 204, the upright soft bag separating mechanism 204 releases the upright soft bags to make the upright soft bags fall quickly, ensuring that only one upright soft bag in each lane is separated in each action. The upright soft bags separated by the upright soft bag separating mechanism 204 are transported to the stepping sorting component 3. As the upright soft bag separating mechanism 204 continues to move, the stepping sorting component 3 receives the upright soft bags in turn, completes the collection of the upright soft bags and transports them to the upright soft bag grabbing station.

[0025] In order to optimize the advantage of the compatible packing equipment in the above embodiment that it can collect plastic bottles more efficiently, a plastic bottle full bottle detector 205 is also provided in the bottle collecting component 2, and the plastic bottle full bottle detector 205 is arranged at the front end of the plastic bottle stop mechanism 201. When collecting plastic bottles, the plastic bottles are accumulated at the plastic bottle limiting mechanism 202. When the plastic bottles are accumulated to the plastic bottle full bottle detection 205, the plastic bottle full bottle detection 205 detects the plastic bottles, indicating that the plastic bottle accumulation is completed. At this time, the plastic bottle blocking mechanism 201 extends to block the subsequent plastic bottles. Then the plastic bottle limiting mechanism 202 retreats to the left, and the accumulated plastic bottles naturally reach the plastic bottle grabbing station under the transportation of the bottle collecting component 2. The design of the plastic bottle full bottle detection 205 ensures that the plastic bottle limiting mechanism 202 will not be in a state of collecting plastic bottles all the time during the plastic bottle collection process. Instead, the plastic bottle full bottle detection 205 detects the position reached when the plastic bottles are accumulated, and promptly blocks the subsequent plastic bottles from continuing to accumulate through the plastic bottle blocking mechanism 201, thereby avoiding the phenomenon of excessive plastic bottles falling and ensuring the collection efficiency.

[0026] Furthermore, a transition transfer mechanism 206 is provided at the outlet end of the bottle collecting component 2. When the upright soft bags are collected, since the upright soft bags are collected in the stepping arrangement component 3, when the upright soft bags are transported to the upright soft bag separation mechanism 204 through the bottle collecting component 2 and there are upright soft bags in each lane of the upright soft bag separation mechanism 204, the upright soft bags are transported to the stepping arrangement component 3 through the transition transfer mechanism 206, ensuring that the upright soft bag separation mechanism 204 can always collect the upright soft bags, providing convenience for the subsequent collection of the upright soft bags and improving the collection efficiency of the upright soft bags.

[0027] It should be noted that the plastic bottle full bottle detection 205, plastic bottle stop mechanism 201, plastic bottle limiting mechanism 202, upright soft bag in place detection 203, upright soft bag separation mechanism 204, and transition transfer mechanism 206 installed on the bottle collecting component 2 according to the adapted products are arranged in sequence along the conveying direction of the bottle collecting component 2.

[0028] It should be noted that the compatible packing equipment also includes a roller conveying assembly 5, which is arranged in parallel with the bottle collecting assembly 2; a box supporting assembly 6 is also arranged on the roller conveying assembly 5. The box supporting assembly 6 is above the roller conveying assembly 5, and the roller conveying assembly 5 is used to convey cartons. The roller conveying assembly 5 has a certain length of intersection with the stepping sorting assembly 3 and the bottle collecting assembly 2. When the stacked plastic bottles naturally reach the plastic bottle grabbing station under the conveyance of the bottle collecting assembly 2, the roller conveying assembly 5 conveys the carton to the junction of the bottle collecting assembly 2 and the stepping sorting assembly 3, and the box supporting assembly 6 opens the carton. The robot 4 grabs the stacked plastic bottles and places the plastic bottles in the carton. When the stacked upright soft bags are conveyed to the stepping sorting assembly 3, the roller conveying assembly 5 conveys the carton to the junction of the bottle collecting assembly 2 and the stepping sorting assembly 3, and the box supporting assembly 6 opens the carton. The robot 4 grabs the stacked upright soft bags and places the plastic bottles in the carton.

[0029] Furthermore, the stepping arrangement assembly 3 includes a servo motor 301, a synchronous belt 302 and a material box 303. The synchronous belt 302 is connected to the servo motor 301, and the material box 303 is installed on the synchronous belt 302. The material boxes 303 are installed on the synchronous belt 302 in groups, and the servo motor 301 can drive the synchronous belt 302 to rotate to achieve the purpose of conveying upright soft bags.

[0030] It should also be noted that the robot 4 is provided with a packing fixture 7. The packing fixture 7 is used to grab the plastic bottles or upright soft bags that have been delivered to the place. When the carton arrives below the carton support assembly 6 along the roller conveyor assembly 5 and completes the carton support action through the carton support assembly 6, the robot 4 then drives the packing fixture 7 to move to the grabbing station to grab the plastic bottles or upright soft bags. After grabbing, the robot 4 drives the packing fixture 7 to move to the carton support assembly 6 to complete the packing.

[0031] To sum up, the plastic bottle upright soft bag compatible packing equipment provided in this embodiment mainly includes a lane dividing component, a bottle collecting component, a stepping sorting component and a robot. The inlet end of the bottle collecting component is connected with the outlet end of the lane dividing component. The stepping sorting component is arranged at the outlet end of the bottle collecting component. The robot is used to grab the plastic bottles in the bottle collecting component and the upright soft bags in the stepping sorting component. The bottle collecting component is provided with a plastic bottle stop mechanism, a plastic bottle limiting mechanism, an upright soft bag in-place detection mechanism and an upright soft bag separating mechanism. The plastic bottle stop mechanism and the plastic bottle limiting mechanism are located at the bottle collecting component away from the outlet end, and the upright soft bag in-place detection mechanism and the upright soft bag separating mechanism are located near the outlet end of the bottle collecting component. The plastic bottle upright soft bag compatible packing equipment disclosed in the present application conveys plastic bottles and upright soft bags through a lane dividing component and a bottle collecting component. During the conveying process, the plastic bottles are collected by a plastic bottle stopping mechanism and a plastic bottle limiting mechanism. The upright soft bags are collected by an upright soft bag in-place detection, an upright soft bag separating mechanism and a stepping sorting component. Finally, the plastic bottles and upright soft bags are grasped by a robot. Corresponding mechanisms and components for realizing upright soft bag conveying, segmentation and bag erection are added to the original plastic bottle packing equipment, thereby realizing the production of compatible upright soft bags on the plastic bottle packing equipment.
