DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0029] 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 embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. The specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present invention and are not used to limit the present invention. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0030] The present invention provides Figure 1-7 A lifting temporary storage device is shown, comprising an entrance buffer table 1, a primary rejection mechanism 2 is installed at one end of the entrance buffer table 1, a 90-degree turntable 3 is provided on one side of the primary rejection mechanism 2, a secondary rejection mechanism 4 is provided on one side of the 90-degree turntable 3, a counting star wheel 5 is installed on one side of the secondary rejection mechanism 4, a servo bottle pushing mechanism 6 is provided on one side of the counting star wheel 5, a touch screen 7 is installed on one side of the servo bottle pushing mechanism 6, a buffer trolley 8 is provided on the other side of the servo bottle pushing mechanism 6, a lifting mechanism 9 is provided above the buffer trolley 8, the buffer trolley 8 is arranged in a rectangular parallelepiped, the entrance buffer table 1 and the servo bottle pushing mechanism 6 are respectively located on two sides adjacent to the buffer trolley 8, and the lifting mechanism 9 is realized by setting a lifting cylinder for realizing the lifting of the buffer trolley 8;

[0031] The entrance buffer station 1 includes a platform body 10, one end of which is fixed with an entrance guardrail 101 by screws, and both sides of the upper surface of the platform body 10 are fixed with a plurality of buffer guardrails 102 by screws. The buffer guardrails 102 are arranged in a triangular shape, and the plurality of buffer guardrails 102 are arranged in a staggered manner;

[0032] like Figure 2As shown, the entrance guardrail 101 converges a single row of vials to the entrance buffer station 1, and the buffer triangular guardrail can reduce the accumulation pressure of the vials at the discharge star wheel 106 to prevent the vials from getting stuck;

[0033] A full material detector 103 is provided on one side of the entrance guardrail 101, and a low material detector 105 is provided on one side of the full material detector 103. The full material detector 103 and the low material detector 105 are respectively located on both sides of the buffer guardrail 102. The full material detector 103 and the low material detector 105 are both fixed to one side of the platform 10 by screws.

[0034] The full material detector 103 and the short material detector 105 both use internally installed sensors to detect whether there is an object blocking the position, thereby determining whether there is a vial at that position. The full material detector 103 is set to control the number of vials on the buffer table. When the detection signal is output, the vials are stopped from being transported to the buffer table. The short material detector controls the number of vials on the buffer table. When the detection signal is not output, it indicates that the number of vials on the table body 10 is too small, and the discharge star wheel 106 stops rotating until the detection signal is output, and the discharge star wheel 106 is started.

[0035] The upper surface of the other end of the platform 10 is rotatably connected to a discharge star wheel 106. A bottle clamping cylinder 104 is provided on one side of the discharge star wheel 106. One end of the bottle clamping cylinder 104 is fixed to the other side of the platform 10 by screws. The primary rejection mechanism 2 is located on the other side of the discharge star wheel 106.

[0036] The discharge star wheel 106 divides the stacked vials into a single row for conveying. The bottle-holding cylinder 104 is in an extended state under normal conditions. When a bottle is stuck, the bottle-holding cylinder 104 is pushed back and outputs a signal through the circuit board, and the discharge star wheel 106 stops rotating to avoid damage to the components.

[0037] like Figure 3 As shown, the primary rejection mechanism 2 includes two protective plates 201, which are fixed to the surface of the platform 10 by screws. A flow groove 202 is formed between the two protective plates 201. The two ends of the flow groove 202 are arranged in an arc shape. One side of one of the protective plates 201 is provided with a through groove 203 for falling bottles to fall.

[0038] The untumbled vial is conveyed forward by the conveyor belt under the action of the protective plate 201 to limit its upper part. The inverted vial moves longitudinally in the flow groove 202. When it reaches the through groove 203, the protective plate 201 cannot limit its upper part, so it falls out of the through groove 203 under the push of other bottles.

[0039] The servo bottle pushing mechanism 6 includes a frame 604, one end of which is fixed with a counting guardrail 601 by screws. The counting guardrail 601 is located on one side of the counting star wheel 5. A counting detector 607 is provided on the other side of the counting star wheel 5. A pusher head 602 is provided on one side of the counting detector 607. The pusher head 602 is arranged in a rectangular plate shape, and a driving servo 605 is provided at one end of the pusher head 602.

[0040] The counting guardrail 601 is used to buffer and reduce the pressure of the vials on the counting star wheel 5. The pusher head 602 pushes the vials from the counting star wheel 5 to the vial temporary storage table 609. The counting detector 607 counts the vials from the counting star wheel 5.

[0041] The driving servo 605 is fixed to the upper surface of the frame 604 by screws. A conveyor belt 603 is provided on one side of the push head 602. A flip servo 606 is provided on one side of the driving servo 605. A flip assembly is provided at one end of the flip servo 606. A touch screen 7 is installed on one side of the frame 604.

[0042] The driving servo 605 and the flip servo 606 are both electric push rods, which respectively drive the extension and retraction of the vial push head 602 and the flip push rod 611. When the number of vials on one layer of the buffer trolley 8 is sufficient, the buffer trolley 8 is lifted one layer by the lifting mechanism 9. During the lifting process of the buffer trolley 8, the bottle temporary storage table 609 flips the trolley to a certain angle through the drive of the flip servo 606, so as to avoid the lifting of the trolley.

[0043] The flip assembly includes a flip push rod 611, one end of which is connected to the flip servo 606, and the other end of the flip push rod 611 is rotatably connected to the bottle temporary storage platform 609. One side of the bottle temporary storage platform 609 is rotatably connected to an L-shaped flip link 610, and one end of the flip link 610 is rotatably connected to the frame 604;

[0044] One end of the frame 604 is fixed with a pusher transition platform 608 by screws. The pusher transition platform 608 is located on one side of the pusher head 602. One side of the pusher transition platform 608 and the bottle temporary storage platform 609 are both provided with saw teeth. The saw teeth of the pusher transition platform 608 and the bottle temporary storage platform 609 are staggered.

[0045] like Figure 5 As shown, the turning connecting rod 610 cooperates with the turning push rod 611 to cause the bottle temporary storage platform 609 to turn over. The pushing transition platform 608 and the bottle temporary storage platform 609 are both designed with saw teeth to stagger each other. When the vials pass through, there is no drop, which is more stable and there is no bottle falling.

[0046] Several layers of storage plates 805 are provided in the cache trolley 8. Several rotating rods 801 are rotatably connected on both sides of the cache trolley 8. A flip plate 804 is fixed to one end of the rotating rod 801. Several support plates 802 are fixed to one side of the storage plate 805 by screws, wherein one end of the several support plates 802 is fixed with a positioning pin 803.

[0047] like Figure 7 As shown, when the push head 602 pushes the vial, the flip plate 804 flips upward under the push of the vial. After the bottle pushing action is completed, the flip plate 804 returns to its original position under the action of gravity. The flip plate 804 is provided to prevent the vials at the edge of each layer from falling during the lifting or transportation of the trolley.

[0048] When the push head 602 pushes the vial into the vial, the pin hole on the vial temporary storage platform 609 is inserted into the positioning pin 803 to determine the relative position of the vial temporary storage platform 609 and the buffer trolley 8. At the same time, a protrusion is provided on one end of the support plate 802 on the vial temporary storage platform 609, which contacts the concave portion of the support plate 802 on the buffer trolley 8 to support it and prevent the edge of the vial temporary storage platform 609 from collapsing, causing the vial to fall over or get stuck.

[0049] During use: After a certain number of vials are accumulated on the entrance buffer table 1, the discharged star wheel 106 of the entrance buffer table 1 separates the accumulated vials into a single row. When passing through the primary rejection mechanism 2, the fallen vials will be rejected to avoid the phenomenon of bottles being stuck in the subsequent process. A 90-degree turntable 3 is set at the corner to achieve the purpose of 90-degree turning and conveying in a smaller space. The secondary rejection mechanism 4 is set to reduce the possibility of fallen bottles being missed.

[0050] A single row of vials passes through the counting guardrail 601 and enters the counting star wheel 5. A specific number of vials are separated by the counting star wheel 5 and moved to the pushing station via the conveyor belt 603. After the vials arrive at the predetermined position, the vial pusher 602 pushes the vials on the conveyor belt 603 to the vial temporary storage table 609 for temporary storage. This is repeated in this way. When the number of vials on the vial temporary storage table 609 reaches the predetermined number of vials per layer of the buffer trolley 8, the vial pusher 602 pushes the entire layer of vials to the buffer trolley 8. The pusher 602 retracts, and the vial temporary storage table 609 tilting servo 606 drives the vial temporary storage table 609 to tilt a certain angle to avoid the lifting mechanism 9 to lift the buffer trolley 8 by one layer. After one layer is lifted, the vial temporary storage table 609 tilting servo 606 drives the tilting connecting rod 610 to lower the vial temporary storage table 609 to the same level as the pushing transition table 608, until each layer of the entire trolley has a specific number of vials. At this time, the lifting mechanism 9 is lowered to a certain height, and the buffer trolley 8 is placed on the conveying table of the AGV, and the AGV transports the trolley to the designated location.

[0051] Finally, it should be noted that the above is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention.
