[0023] The embodiments of the present invention are further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings:

[0024] Depend on Figure 1 Combination Figure 2-7 As shown, a cotton swab packaging machine includes a frame 1, a first station, and a second station. The frame 1 is provided with a power source 2, a turntable 3, a feeding device 4, a discharging device 5, and a picking device 6. The power source 2 is connected to the turntable 3 and drives the turntable 3 to rotate circumferentially. The picking device 6 is arranged on the turntable 3 and driven by the turntable 3 to correspond to the feeding device 4 and the discharging device 5. The picking device 6 has a first position for sucking materials, a second position for rotating driven by the turntable 3, and a third position for discharging materials. The beneficial effect of the present invention is that the feeding device, the discharging device, and the picking device can quickly and conveniently suck and pick materials through the picking device, which is convenient for rapid packaging processing and has high packaging efficiency. The present invention also has the advantages of simple structure, convenient assembly, reliable operation, and long service life.

[0025] The feeding device 4 includes a vibration plate 41 and a feeding mechanism 42, wherein the vibration plate 41 is connected to the feeding mechanism 42, and the material taking device 6 is provided with a material fork 61 for convenient material taking. The setting of the vibration plate facilitates reliable feeding, and the setting of the material fork facilitates separation of materials and reliable feeding.

[0026] The feeding mechanism 42 includes a support frame 421 and a support assembly 422. The support assembly 422 is arranged on the support frame 421. The support assembly 422 is provided with a feed guide hole 423 for the material to pass through and used for material positioning. Specifically, there are two support assemblies 422, and the two support assemblies 422 are respectively arranged on the upper and lower sides of the material fork 61. Each support assembly 422 includes two support rods 4221, and the support rods 4221 cooperate with each other to form the feed guide hole 423. Specifically, when feeding, the rod of the cotton swab is arranged between the feed guide holes formed by the two support assemblies, and the head of the cotton swab is arranged above the support assembly. More specifically, the feed guide hole is arranged in a linear shape, and reliable and rapid feeding can be achieved through the feed guide hole. At the same time, it is convenient to bring the cotton swab out of the feed guide hole during rotation, which is convenient for subsequent reliable processing.

[0027] The feeding device 4 includes a material blocking mechanism 43, which includes a material blocking plate 431 and a material blocking driving member 432 for driving the material blocking plate 431 to reciprocate, and the material blocking plate 431 has a first position when installed and a second position driven by the material blocking driving member 432 to extend to prevent excessive movement of the material in the feeding guide hole 423. The setting of the material blocking mechanism prevents excessive movement of the material during feeding, and facilitates reliable material removal by the material removal device.

[0028] The present invention also includes an air source 7, and the material fork 61 includes a plurality of pins 611, and two adjacent pins 611 cooperate with each other to form a material taking hole 612, and the air source 7 is connected to the material taking hole 612 through a reversing valve 8 and prevents the material from falling off through negative pressure. In this way, multiple materials to be packaged can be taken at one time, and the material taking is convenient and reliable. Specifically, each pin 611 is arranged in an inverted trapezoidal shape, and the pin 611 is provided with a guide slope 6111 for easy material separation. The trapezoidal pin can adapt to the structure of the cotton swab, which is convenient for reliable material separation and material taking. More specifically, in the first station, the pin is arranged in an inverted trapezoidal shape, and the lower bottom edge of the trapezoid is at the top, which is convenient for separating the head of the cotton swab. More specifically, the guide slope can also play a guiding role, which is convenient for reliable material separation. Specifically, in the third station, the material fork is driven by the rotary drive member to rotate 180 degrees, so that the pin is arranged in a trapezoidal shape, which can make the head of the cotton swab face downward, which is convenient for pushing the material and subsequent packaging.

[0029] The present invention also includes a third station, which is arranged between the first station and the second station, and the material picking device 6 includes a material picking drive 62 and a rotary drive 63, and the material fork 61 is arranged on the rotary drive 63 through a rotor 64. The material picking drive 62 is connected to the rotary drive 63 and drives the rotary drive 63 to move linearly, and the rotary drive 63 drives the material fork 61 to rotate in the third station. Specifically, in the first station, the material picking drive drives the material fork to extend, insert and separate the cotton swab, and the cotton swab is sucked by negative pressure, and rotates out of the feed guide hole under the drive of the turntable. In the third station, under the drive of the rotary drive, the rotor and the material fork rotate 180 degrees, so that the head of the cotton swab faces downward, which is convenient for subsequent processing.

[0030] The discharging device 5 includes a pushing mechanism 51 and an entraining mechanism 52. The pushing mechanism 51 includes a pushing rod 511 for pushing the material in the material fork 61 and a pushing driving member 512 for driving the pushing rod 511 to reciprocate. The entraining mechanism 52 includes a pressing block 521 for clamping the packaging bag and an entraining driving member 522 for driving the pressing block 521 to reciprocate. The entraining mechanism 52 is arranged below the pushing mechanism 51. Specifically, the pushing mechanism 51 and the entraining mechanism 52 are separated by a fixing seat 53. The fixing seat 53 is provided with a pushing hole 531 for the pushing rod 511 to pass through and a fixing plate 532 for facilitating the pressing of the packaging bag. A plug plate 533 with one end open and the other end contracted is provided below the pushing hole 531. The pushing rod 511 is provided with a pushing groove 5111 adapted to the material. Specifically, the discharging device is arranged on the second station, and the setting of the push rod can reliably make the cotton swab detach from the material fork, and the setting of the push groove plays a guiding and limiting role at the same time, so that the material falls into the bag more smoothly and reliably. According to the needs, the number of push rods can be the same as the number of material holes, which is convenient for reliable feeding. Of course, the present invention can feed multiple cotton swabs at one time. The cooperation of the clamping mechanism and the fixing seat can reliably fix the packaging bag, which is convenient for subsequent processing. The setting of the plug plate plays a guiding role, which is convenient for reliable feeding and packaging.
