[0072] like Figure 4 As shown, in this embodiment, the lid packing device further includes a first lid blowing mechanism 90. The first lid blowing mechanism 90 can be a combination of an air pump and an air pipe to achieve air jet, and the air pipe is connected to the exhaust nozzle of the air pump; wherein, a docking slide 51 is provided between the lid screening mechanism 30 and the pick-up and delivery mechanism 50, and the inlet of the docking slide 51 is arranged opposite to the air jet port, and the air jet port is located on one side of the lid screening mechanism 30, and the first lid blowing mechanism 90 is configured to blow the lids on the lid screening mechanism 30 into the docking slide 51.

[0073] like Figure 1 As shown, in this embodiment, the pick-up and delivery mechanism 50 includes a servo electric turntable 52 and a second cover blowing mechanism 53. The servo electric turntable 52 has a cover positioning groove (not shown) for receiving the cover sliding down from the docking slide 51; the second cover blowing mechanism 53 is used to blow the cover from the cover positioning groove into the conveying mechanism 20, and the second cover blowing mechanism 53 can also use a combination of an air pump and an air pipe to achieve air injection; the docking slide 51 includes a docking section 511 and an arc-shaped sliding section 512, and a limit plate 513 is provided on the arc-shaped sliding section 512. By configuring the limit plate 513, the cover can be effectively prevented from derailing and falling. In order to better allow the cover to be blown into the conveying mechanism 20, a slide plate 21 is provided between the servo electric turntable 52 and the conveying mechanism 20.

[0074] like Figure 2 , 3, 6, 7 and 8, in this embodiment, the arrangement mechanism 10 includes a temporary storage conveyor 11, an electric gate 12, a pushing device 13, a fixed arrangement fence and a stacking platform 15. The temporary storage conveyor 11 is used to receive the caps conveyed by the conveying mechanism 20. The conveying mechanism 20 is provided with a guide fence 22. The guide fence 22 is fixed above the conveying mechanism 20 through a connecting frame and guides the caps. The guide fence 22 is also used to guide the caps conveyed by the conveying mechanism 20 into the temporary storage conveyor 11. The pushing device 13 is used to push out a row of caps temporarily stored in the temporary storage conveyor 11. The shaped arrangement fence is used to receive and maintain the arrangement shape of a row of lids pushed in by the pushing device 13. The shaped arrangement fence is provided with a pushing entrance (not shown), and the pushing entrance is arranged horizontally opposite to the pushing device 13; wherein, a guide temporary storage path 121 is formed between the pushing device 13 and the electric gate 12, and the guide temporary storage path 121 is located above the temporary storage conveyor 11, and the guide temporary storage path 121 is used to guide and position the lids on the temporary storage conveyor 11; the shaped arrangement fence includes three positioning plates 141, and the three positioning plates are all fixed on the stacking platform 15, and two of the positioning plates are perpendicular to the other positioning plate, thereby forming a groove structure with a pushing entrance.

[0075] like Figure 6 and 8 As shown, in this embodiment, the pushing device 13 includes a push plate 131 and a driver 132. The driver 132 can be an electric telescopic rod or an electric cylinder. The push plate 131 is configured to fit with the push inlet. Since the push plate 131 and the push inlet are designed to fit, it is beneficial for the lids to maintain a good stacking shape. The driver 132 is used to drive the push plate 131 to move, and the output end of the driver 132 is fixedly connected to the back of the push plate 131.

[0076] like Figure 8 As shown, in this embodiment, a first baffle plate 133 is provided on the push plate 131. The first baffle plate 133 is configured to block the cover on the conveying mechanism 20 from entering the temporary storage conveyor 11 when the driver 132 pushes the push plate 131. The back side of the push plate 131 is fixedly connected to the first baffle plate 133, and the push plate 131 is perpendicular to the first baffle plate 133.

[0077] like Figure 6 As shown, in this embodiment, the arrangement mechanism 10 further includes a detector 16, which is configured to detect the number of caps entering the temporary storage conveyor 11 to provide a control basis for automation. The detector 16 can be a sensor, such as an obstacle sensor and an infrared sensor. The detector 16 is mounted on the guide fence.

[0078] like Figure 6 and 8As shown, in the present embodiment, a second baffle plate 122 is provided on the electric gate 12, and the second baffle plate 122 is used to block the guide temporary storage path 121, so that the lids cannot be moved out of the guide temporary storage path 121, and the stacking position of the lids can be effectively maintained, so that the clamping mechanism 80 can better clamp a row of lids, and the second baffle plate 122 is fixedly connected to the gate part of the electric gate 12.

[0079] like Figure 4 As shown, in this embodiment, the cap screening mechanism 30 includes a storage container 31, a longitudinal conveyor 32 and a screening bar 33. The storage container 31 is used to store bottle caps; the longitudinal conveyor 32 has a conveyor belt, and a carrier bar 34 is arranged on the conveyor belt. The carrier bar 34 is used to carry bottle caps that are backed against the conveyor belt. The longitudinal conveyor 32 is inserted into the storage container 31; the screening bar 33 is used to screen the caps on the carrier bar 34 and trip the bottle caps whose backs are not close to the conveyor belt; wherein, the entrance of the connecting slide 51 is located on one side of the conveyor belt. The screening bar 33 is suspended in front of the longitudinal conveyor 32 by a bracket. When working, the caps that are not backed against the conveyor belt will fall into the storage container 31 due to their own gravity.

[0080] like Figure 2 As shown, in this embodiment, the lid packing device also includes a placement plate 100 and a conveying mechanism 110; the placement plate 100 is used to place the packaging box; the conveying mechanism 110 is arranged under the placement plate 100, and the conveying mechanism 110 is used to drive the placement plate 100 to move. The conveying mechanism 110 can adopt highly controllable equipment such as electric guide rails and electric slides.

[0081] The working method of the lid packing device comprises the following steps:

[0082] 1) The vertical conveyor 32 screens the caps in the storage container 31. After the caps against the conveyor belt are transported to a certain height, the first cap blowing mechanism 90 blows the caps on the carrier strip 34 into the docking slide 51;

[0083] 2) The covers in the connecting slide 51 fall into the cover positioning grooves in turn and are transported by the servo electric turntable 52. After reaching the set rotation angle, the control device stops the servo electric turntable 52 and starts the gasket insertion mechanism 60 to add gaskets into the covers. Then the control device starts the servo electric turntable 52 again;

[0084] 3) When the rotation angle of the servo electric turntable 52 reaches the set value, the control device stops the servo electric turntable 52 from working, and simultaneously starts the pad pressing mechanism 70 to press and fix the cover and the gasket, and then the control device starts the servo electric turntable 52 again;

[0085] 4) When the rotation angle of the servo electric turntable 52 reaches the set value, the control device stops the servo electric turntable 52 from working and starts the second cap blowing mechanism to blow the cap from the cap positioning groove into the conveying mechanism 20.

[0086] 5) The conveying mechanism 20 receives the blown-in caps and transports the caps;

[0087] 6) The caps are transported along the conveying mechanism 20 and the guide fence 22. Once the caps reach the set position, they are guided by the guide fence 22 and introduced into the temporary storage conveyor 11;

[0088] 7) The detector 16 detects the number of caps entering the temporary storage conveyor 11;

[0089] 8) Once the number of caps entering the temporary storage conveyor 11 reaches the set value, the control device delays the stop of the temporary storage conveyor 11, and sequentially starts the electric gate 12 and the pushing device 13 to push a row of caps accumulated on the temporary storage conveyor 11 into the fixed arrangement fence, and then the pushing device 13 and the electric gate 12 are reset in sequence;

[0090] 5) Once the number of feedbacks from the detector 16 reaches a set value, the control device activates the clamping mechanism 80 to transport the regularly arranged caps stored in the fixed arrangement fence into the packaging box;

[0091] 6) The control device starts the transport mechanism 110 to move the packaging box out of the workstation for staff to review.

[0092] Furthermore, in order to improve work efficiency, by adjusting the rotation angle of the servo electric turntable 52 and the position of each mechanism, there will be a cover positioning groove to receive the cover each time the servo electric turntable 52 is stopped by the control mechanism. In order to control accuracy, the relative angle of each mechanism can be obtained. Whenever the servo electric turntable reaches the set rotation angle, it stops, thereby realizing the processes of inserting and pressing the pad.

[0093] The above are only implementation modes of the present invention, but the protection scope of the present invention is not limited thereto, and any changes or substitutions that are not conceived through creative work should be included in the protection scope of the present invention; unless explicitly stated, any element, action or instruction used in this document should not be interpreted as critical or necessary.
