Description

Technical field:

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of automatic empty bottle rejection devices, in particular to an automatic empty bottle rejection device for a mixed bottle filling line. Background technology:

[0002] The filling line is to put liquid or powder into bottles. Bottles of different shapes and weights will be used. Generally, multiple bottles will be filled at the same time. However, when one or more filling mechanisms fail, empty bottles will appear on the conveyor line and will be loaded during boxing. The existing empty bottle detection device can only blow and remove bottles of the same shape and weight, and cannot automatically adapt to the detection of bottles of different shapes and weights. Therefore, it causes great losses to both customers and enterprises. Summary of the invention:

[0003] The purpose of the present invention is to solve the existing problems and to provide an automatic empty bottle rejection device for a mixed bottle filling line.

[0004] The technical solutions of the present invention are as follows:

[0005] An automatic empty bottle rejection device for a mixed bottle filling line comprises a conveyor, a visual inspection system and an air flow injection assembly are provided on one side of the conveyor, the air flow injection assembly is arranged in the middle section of the conveyor, the visual inspection system is arranged close to one side of the air flow injection assembly, and the air flow injection assembly comprises a base plate horizontally fixed to the side of the conveyor, a mounting plate vertically fixed to the base plate, a tube body horizontally rotatably arranged on the mounting plate, a nozzle fixed to one end of the tube body, an air supply hose rotatably connected to the other end of the tube body, a gear fixed to the outer circular wall of the tube body, a rack vertically meshing with the gear, and a cylinder fixed to the bottom surface of the mounting plate and driving the rack to rise and fall.

[0006] Preferably, a bottle receiving pipe is provided on the side of the conveyor opposite to the air nozzle.

[0007] Preferably, a through hole is formed on the mounting plate, a bearing is fixed to the through hole, and the tube body is fixed to the inner ring of the bearing.

[0008] Preferably, a spoiler is further provided in the air nozzle, and the spoiler is relatively elastically hinged to the inner wall of the air nozzle.

[0009] Preferably, the spoiler is extended along the long side direction of the air nozzle opening.

[0010] Preferably, the gas delivery hose is connected to an air pump.

[0011] The beneficial effects of the present invention are: 1. The shape of the passing bottle is judged by the visual detection system, and the detection signal is transmitted to the cylinder to drive the tube body to rotate. The vertical state of the air nozzle corresponds to the bottle with a small windward area, and the horizontal state of the air nozzle corresponds to the bottle with a large windward area. This allows the device to flexibly and automatically respond to the rejection of empty bottles of different shapes and weights, ensuring that there are no empty bottles in the box and protecting the interests of the enterprise and customers.

[0012] 2. The device can also inspect and repair the faulty filling mechanism without shutting down the filling line, thus ensuring the production efficiency of the enterprise. Description of the drawings:
