TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of food and medicine packaging machinery equipment, in particular to a nest returning device and a nest returning method. BACKGROUND

[0002] The existing pre-filled needle (syringe) is fixed on the nest plate after filling, and then is arranged in the nest box together. Then, the filled pre-filled needle needs to be visually detected, and the unqualified pre-filled needle is removed. Before the visual detection, the pre-filled needle needs to be taken out from the nest box, which is called nest removal. Then, the single pre-filled needle is visually detected, and the qualified pre-filled needle is returned to the nest box for output, which is called nest returning. The unqualified pre-filled needle is removed. Therefore, in the nest returning machine, the unqualified pre-filled needle is removed after the visual detection, which will cause the existence of extra nest plates and nest boxes in the nest returning machine. However, the existing method is to alarm and then manually take away the extra nest plates and nest boxes. This method is time-consuming and labor-consuming, and has low efficiency. SUMMARY

The second transfer mechanism 8 is used for grabbing the nest plate 91 on the empty nest conveying mechanism 2 to the syringe loading area 1, and for grabbing the empty nest plate 91 and / or the nest box 92 to the empty nest recovery port 4. The working process is as follows: the nest plate 91 and the nest box 92 are conveyed along the empty nest conveying mechanism 2; the nest plate 91 on the empty nest conveying mechanism 2 is transferred to the syringe loading area 1 by the second transfer mechanism 8, and the syringe loading is performed in the syringe loading area 1; the excess nest plate 91 and the nest box 92 are sent to the empty nest recovery port 4, and are recovered to the storage area 3 by the empty nest recovery mechanism 5. The nest returning device is mainly applied to the rear end of the lamp inspection machine. The syringes on the nest plate 91 are taken out at the front end of the lamp inspection machine, and are sent into the lamp inspection machine for detection. After passing the detection, the qualified syringes are returned to the nest plate 91 from the rear end of the lamp inspection machine. Since the unqualified syringes need to be removed after the detection by the lamp inspection machine, the excess nest plate 91 and the nest box 92 will be caused. The nest returning device can recover the excess nest plate 91 and the nest box 92, which saves time and labor, and can improve the production efficiency.

Figure 7 As shown, the nest board 91 and the syringe on the nest board 91 are removed from the nest box 92 at the front end of the light inspection machine. The syringe is sent into the light inspection machine for testing. After passing the test, it is put back onto the nest board 91 from the rear end of the light inspection machine. Then, the nest board 91 filled with syringes is put into the nest box 92. Since the unqualified syringes need to be removed after the light inspection machine, there will be excess nest board 91 and nest box 92. This nest return method can recycle the excess nest board 91 and nest box 92, saving time and effort and improving production efficiency.
