Description

Technical Field

[0002] In industries such as pharmaceuticals and chemicals, materials that are prone to decomposition or reaction under light are often packaged in outer tubes, such as paper tubes, outside of inner bags. During material processing, at the material handling stage, the tube caps need to be manually removed, and the material containing the inner bag is manually removed from the outer tube. The material is then placed on a conveyor belt and transported to the next process for unpacking the inner bag. The process of removing the outer tube is labor-intensive and has low production efficiency. Summary of the Invention

[0030] The technical solution of the present invention will now be clearly and completely described with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments.

For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal connection of two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this invention based on the specific circumstances.

[0035] like Figures 1 to 8 As shown, the present invention provides an outer cylinder removal device, comprising: a frame 1, a working platform 2, a cutting device 3, a flipping device 4, and an outer cylinder moving device 5; the working platform 2 is connected to the frame 1; the cutting device 3 includes a cutting drive component and a cutting tool 31, the cutting drive component is connected to the working platform 2, and the cutting drive component is driven to drive the cutting tool 31 to move; the flipping device 4 is used to flip the material; the outer cylinder moving device 5 includes a moving drive component and a connecting part, the moving drive component is connected to the frame 1, and the moving drive component is driven to drive the connecting part to move, the connecting part is used to connect with the outer cylinder of the material.

[0036] In this embodiment, the material packaged with an outer cylinder and an inner bag is placed on the work platform 2. The inner bag wraps around the material, and the outer cylinder is fitted over the inner bag. The moving drive unit drives the connecting part to the outer cylinder, connecting the connecting part to the outer cylinder. Then, the cutting drive unit drives the cutting tool 31 to cut the outer cylinder below the connection point between the connecting part and the outer cylinder, dividing the outer cylinder into two parts. The first part of the outer cylinder is connected to the connecting part, and the second part of the outer cylinder is located on the work platform 2. The moving drive unit is then controlled to move the connecting part away, thereby causing the first part of the outer cylinder to connect with the inner bag (which contains the material). The material is detached; then, the flipping device 4 is connected to the material and flips it over, so that the opening of the second outer cylinder changes from upward to downward; then, the moving drive is controlled to drive the connecting part to the second part, realizing the connection between the connecting part and the second part. At this time, since the opening of the second outer cylinder is downward, it is relatively easy to detach the inner bag (containing material) from the second outer cylinder, thus completing the removal of the outer cylinder; at this time, the flipping device 4 can flip the second outer cylinder again, and the outer cylinder moving device 5 can move the second outer cylinder away. The outer cylinder removal equipment provided in this embodiment can automatically cut and flip the outer cylinder, thereby avoiding manual cutting of the outer cylinder and reversal of the material, reducing manual labor intensity, improving the efficiency of outer cylinder removal, and thus improving the processing efficiency of materials.

[0037] For ease of description, the inner bag mentioned below refers to the inner bag that wraps around the material.

[0038] The flipping device 4 can be a robotic arm located on one side of the frame 1.

[0039] As an alternative, such as Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the flipping device 4 includes a flipping drive 41 (e.g., a motor or rotary cylinder), a flipping support frame 42, and a first connecting shaft 43; the flipping drive 41 is fixed on the frame 1, the flipping drive 41 is connected to the flipping support frame 42, one end of the flipping drive 41 is connected to the first connecting shaft 43, and the other end of the first connecting shaft 43 is connected to one side of the working platform 2; the outer cylinder removal device also includes a clamping device 6, which is connected to the working platform 2 and is used to clamp the material.

[0040] In this embodiment, after the material is placed on the working platform 2, the clamping device 6 clamps the material. After the cutting device 3 completes the cutting of the outer cylinder and the outer cylinder moving device 5 removes the first part of the outer cylinder, the flipping drive 41 is controlled to work, driving the first connecting shaft 43 to rotate. This causes the first connecting shaft 43 to flip the working platform 2, and the working platform 2, in turn, causes the clamping device 6 and the material clamped within it to flip. This type of flipping device 4 has a simple structure, occupies little space, and is low in cost.

[0041] Alternatively, only the tilting support frame 42 can be set, in which case the working platform 2 is equivalent to a cantilever setup.

[0042] As an alternative, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the flipping device 4 also includes a flipping fixing frame 44 and a second connecting shaft 45; the flipping fixing frame 44 and the flipping support frame 42 are fixed relative to each other on the frame 1, one end of the second connecting shaft 45 is connected to the side of the working platform 2 away from the first connecting shaft 43, and the other end of the second connecting shaft 45 is rotatably connected to the flipping fixing frame 44; the moving drive component is connected to the flipping fixing frame 44.

[0043] In this embodiment, the flipping fixing frame 44 and the flipping support frame 42 are located on both sides of the working platform 2, thereby supporting the working platform 2 on both sides, making the working platform 2 stable and flipping stable.

[0044] Based on the above embodiments, the outer cylinder moving device 5 can have various structural forms. For example, the outer cylinder moving device 5 includes a base and a cantilever. The moving drive includes a rotary motor and a telescopic structure (e.g., a hydraulic cylinder or a pneumatic cylinder). The fixed part of the rotary motor is connected to the tilting fixing frame 44, the power output shaft of the rotary motor is connected to the base, one end of the cantilever is rotatably connected to the base, and the other end of the cantilever is connected to the connecting part. The fixed part of the telescopic structure is rotatably connected to the base, and the movable part of the telescopic structure is rotatably connected to the cantilever. The connecting part includes a connecting seat connected to the cantilever, two clamping plates oppositely arranged on the connecting seat, and a telescopic component (e.g., a pneumatic cylinder) that is drively connected to the clamping plates. (Hydraulic cylinder or electric telescopic rod); When the connecting part is connected to the outer cylinder, the telescopic structure works, driving the cantilever to rotate towards the working platform 2. When the two clamping plates are on both sides of a certain position on the outer cylinder, the telescopic structure stops working, and the telescopic component drives the two clamping plates to move towards the outer cylinder, thereby clamping the outer cylinder; After the first part of the outer cylinder is cut off, the telescopic structure works, driving the cantilever to rotate the connecting part away from the working platform 2, thereby separating the first part of the outer cylinder from the inner bag. The rotary motor works to make the base rotate, finally realizing the rotation of the connecting part to the set position; The process of the outer cylinder moving device 5 moving the second part of the outer cylinder is the same as the above process, and will not be described again here.

[0045] As an alternative, such as Figure 2 As shown, the connecting part is a suction cup assembly 51, and the moving drive includes a suction lifting rotation drive 52 and a suction lifting linear drive; the outer cylinder moving device 5 also includes a rotating arm 55, which is connected to the suction lifting rotation drive 52, and the fixing part of the suction lifting linear drive is connected to one end of the rotating arm 55. The suction lifting linear drive is connected to the suction cup assembly 51 in a transmission connection; the suction cup assembly 51 can be located above the working platform 2.

[0046] In this embodiment, after the material is placed on the working platform 2, the suction and lifting rotation drive 52 (e.g., a rotary motor or rotary cylinder) operates. The movable part of the suction and lifting rotation drive 52 drives the rotating arm 55 to rotate, thereby driving the suction cup assembly 51 to rotate above the working platform 2. The suction and lifting linear drive operates, thereby driving the suction cup assembly 51 to contact the outer cylinder and push the suction cup assembly 51 so that the suction cup assembly 51 can adsorb the outer cylinder. After the cutting device 3 cuts the outer cylinder, the rotation drive 71 operates, driving the rotating arm 55 to rotate, thereby rotating the suction cup assembly 51 with the first part of the outer cylinder adsorbed to the set position to facilitate the collection of the first part of the outer cylinder. Similarly, after the inner bag is separated from the outer cylinder and the flipping device 4 flips and resets, the suction and lifting linear drive operates, driving the suction cup assembly 51 to move towards the second part of the outer cylinder to the set position, thereby realizing the adsorption of the second part of the outer cylinder by the suction cup assembly 51. Finally, the suction and lifting rotation drive 52 operates to remove the second part of the outer cylinder. The outer cylinder moving device 5 of this structure is simple in structure, and the suction cup assembly 51 is firmly connected to the outer cylinder, making it easy to control.

[0047] Optionally, such as Figure 2 As shown, the suction lifting linear drive includes a first linear drive 53 and a second linear drive 54. The fixed part of the first linear drive 53 is connected to one end of the rotating arm 55, the movable part of the first linear drive 53 is connected to the fixed part of the second linear drive 54, and the movable part of the second linear drive 54 is connected to the suction cup assembly 51. Through the relay of the first linear drive 53 and the second linear drive 54, the stroke of the suction cup assembly 51 can be increased, thereby ensuring that the second outer cylinder can be adsorbed.

[0048] Optional, such as Figure 2 As shown, the movable part of the suction and lifting rotation drive 52 is connected to the middle part of the rotating arm 55. A counterweight 56 ​​is provided at the end of the rotating arm 55 away from the suction cup assembly 51, which helps the rotating arm 55 to maintain balance.

[0049] Based on the above embodiments, the cutting device 3 can be further configured in various ways. For example, the cutting device 3 includes a cutting support frame connected to the working platform 2, and the cutting drive includes a cutting linear drive (e.g., a linear cylinder, a linear hydraulic cylinder, and a lead screw mechanism). The cutting linear drive is connected to the cutter 31 to drive the cutter 31 to move in the horizontal direction (the horizontal direction in its natural state). In this case, multiple cutting devices 3 need to be set at intervals along a uniform circumferential direction to ensure that the outer cylinder is cut.

[0050] As an alternative, such as Figures 1 to 3As shown, the working platform 2 is provided with mounting holes. The outer cylinder removal device also includes a rotating platform device 7, which includes a rotating drive component 71 and a rotating disk 72. The rotating drive component 71 is connected to the working platform 2 and is driven by the rotating disk 72 to drive the rotating disk 72 to rotate within the mounting hole. The clamping device 6 is connected to the rotating disk 72. The cutting device 3 also includes a cutting mounting base 36, which is fixedly connected to the working platform 2. The cutting drive component includes a tool rotation drive component 32 connected to the cutting mounting base 36 and is driven by the tool 31 to drive the tool 31 to rotate.

[0051] In this embodiment, when the material is placed on the rotating disk 72, after the clamping device 6 clamps and fixes the material, the rotating drive component 71 (e.g., a rotating cylinder or a rotating motor) drives the rotating disk 72 to rotate. At the same time, the cutter rotation drive component 32 (e.g., a rotating cylinder or a rotating motor) drives the cutter 31 to rotate, thereby enabling the cutter 31 to perform a ring cut on the outer cylinder, ultimately separating the first part of the outer cylinder and the second part of the outer cylinder. This structure can reduce the number of cutting devices 3, making the structure of the outer cylinder removal equipment simple, and the cutting process simple, making it easier to ensure that the first part of the outer cylinder and the second part of the outer cylinder are completely separated.

[0052] The rotary drive component 71 can be connected to the rotary disk 72 via a belt drive mechanism, gear drive structure, or chain drive structure.

[0053] like Figures 1 to 3 and Figure 7 As shown, based on the above embodiments, the cutting device 3 further includes an outer cylinder detection element 35 that is communicatively connected to the cutting drive component; the cutting drive component also includes a vertical linear drive component 33 (e.g., a linear cylinder, a linear hydraulic cylinder, a motor lead screw mechanism, or a motor gear rack structure, etc.) and a horizontal linear drive component 34 (e.g., a linear cylinder, a linear hydraulic cylinder, a motor lead screw mechanism, or a motor gear rack structure, etc.); the fixed part of the vertical linear drive component 33 is connected to the cutting mounting base 36, the fixed part of the horizontal linear drive component 34 is connected to the movable part of the vertical linear drive component 33, and the fixed part of the tool rotation drive component 32 is connected to the movable part of the horizontal linear drive component 34.

[0054] In this embodiment, the vertical linear drive 33 enables the cutter 31 to move vertically, and the horizontal linear drive 34 enables the cutter 31 to move horizontally. When the outer cylinder detection element 35 detects the outer cylinder, the vertical and horizontal linear drive elements 33 and 34 stop working, and the cutter rotation drive 32 drives the cutter 31 to rotate. On the one hand, this structure can adapt to the cutting of material outer cylinders of different specifications. The cutter 31 only starts cutting when the outer cylinder detection element 35 detects the outer cylinder (that is, when the cutter 31 reaches the designated cutting position), making the cutting accurate. On the other hand, when the cutting device 3 is not working, the cutter 31 can be moved to an area outside the rotating disk 72 to avoid interference with the material and affect the subsequent processing. This is more conducive to realizing the full automation and mechanization of outer cylinder removal and further improves the efficiency of outer cylinder removal.

[0055] The outer cylinder detection element 35 can be a proximity switch or a position detection sensor.

[0056] Specifically, such as Figure 7 As shown, the cutting device 3 also includes a first cutting mounting plate 37 and a second cutting mounting plate 38. One side of the first cutting mounting plate 37 is fixedly connected to the movable part of the vertical linear drive member 33, and the fixed part of the horizontal linear drive member 34 is connected to the other side of the first cutting mounting plate 37. The movable part of the horizontal linear drive member 34 is connected to the second cutting mounting plate 38, and the tool rotation drive member 32 is connected to the second cutting mounting plate 38.

[0057] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, based on the above embodiment, the working platform 2 further includes a first platform 21 and a second platform 22 arranged at relative intervals, and a connecting column 23 connecting the first platform 21 and the second platform 22; the first platform 21 is provided with mounting holes, the rotary drive 71 is connected to the second platform 22 (it can be set on the side plate of the second platform 22 away from the first platform 21), and the cutting device 3 is set on the side plate of the first platform 21 away from the second platform 22; the clamping device 6 includes a clamping drive 61 and a plurality of clamps 62; the clamping drive 61 is set between the first platform 21 and the second platform 22 (which can make the structure of the outer cylinder removal device compact and regular), along the circumferential direction of the rotating disk 72, the rotating disk 72 is provided with a plurality of sliding grooves 73 at intervals, the sliding grooves 73 extend from the center of the rotating disk 72 to the edge of the rotating disk 72, the plurality of clamps 62 and the plurality of sliding grooves 73 are arranged one-to-one, and the clamping drive 61 is connected to the clamps 62 to drive the clamps 62 to slide along the length direction of the sliding grooves 73.

[0058] In this embodiment, when the material is placed on the rotating disk 72, the clamping drive 61 works, driving the clamp 62 to move along the length of the slide groove 73 towards the material until the material is clamped; when it is necessary to release the outer cylinder, the clamping drive 61 works, thereby driving the clamp 62 to move in the opposite direction.

[0059] The clamping drive component 61 (e.g., linear cylinder, linear hydraulic cylinder, motor screw mechanism, etc.) is multiple, and multiple clamping drive components 61 are connected to multiple clamps 62 in a one-to-one correspondence, that is, one clamping drive component drives one clamp 62 to move.

[0060] As an alternative, such as Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the rotating platform device 7 also includes a main shaft 74, a rotating drive 71 is connected to one end of the main shaft 74, and the other end of the main shaft 74 is connected to the rotating disk 72; the clamping device 6 also includes a connecting rod assembly, which includes a hinge connecting piece 67 and multiple hinges 66; the multiple hinges 66 are connected to multiple clamps 62 in a one-to-one correspondence, and the multiple hinges 66 are all rotatably connected to the hinge 66 plate, the hinge connecting piece 67 is sleeved on the outside of the main shaft 74, and the clamping drive 61 is connected to one of the multiple hinges 66 in a driving connection.

[0061] In this embodiment, when the clamping drive 61 drives a hinge 66 to move, the hinge 66 drives the hinge connecting piece 67 to move, thereby driving other hinges 66 to move, and thus enabling the clamp 62 to slide in the slide groove 73. This allows one clamping drive 61 to drive multiple clamps 62 to move, making the unloading device simple and compact in structure.

[0062] like Figure 5 As shown, based on the above embodiment, the clamping device 6 further includes multiple slide rails 63, multiple sliders 64, and multiple fixing plates 65; the multiple slide rails 63 are fixed on the side plate of the rotating disk 72 near the second platform 22, the sliders 64 slide on the slide rails 63, the clamp 62 is connected to the sliders 64, one end of the fixing plate 65 is connected to the sliders 64, and the other end of the fixing plate 65 is connected to the hinge 66; the clamping drive 61 is connected to one of the multiple fixing plates 65 in a transmission connection.

[0063] In this embodiment, it is understood that the slide groove 73 is disposed through the first platform 21; one end of the slider 64 slides on the slide rail 63, and the other end of the slider 64 is connected to the clamp 62; the clamping drive member 61 drives a fixed plate 65 to move, which in turn drives the corresponding slider 64 to move, thereby driving the corresponding clamp 62 to move; at the same time, through the linkage assembly, other fixed plates 65 move simultaneously, thereby moving other sliders 64, and then moving other clamps 62. The slide rail 63 can restrict the movement of the slider 64, making the movement of the slider 64 smooth, thereby making the movement of the clamp 62 smooth.

[0064] In this configuration, one clamp 62 may correspond to one slide groove 73; or one clamp 62 may correspond to two slide grooves 73. The slider 64 includes a bottom that is slidably connected to the slide rail 63 and two support arms that are connected to the bottom. One support arm passes through a slide groove 73 and is connected to one side of the clamp 62.

[0065] Specifically, the clamping device 6 also includes a clamping fixing plate 68, the clamping drive is fixed on the clamping fixing plate 68, and the clamping fixing plate 68 is connected and fixed to the second platform 22.

[0066] like Figures 1 to 3 and Figure 8 As shown, based on the above embodiments, the outer cylinder removal device further includes a loosening device 8, which includes a loosening drive and an extrusion component; the loosening drive is connected to the side plate of the working platform 2 near the connecting part (when the working platform 2 includes a first platform 21 and a second platform 22, the loosening device 8 is set on the side plate of the first platform 21 away from the second platform 22), and the loosening drive is connected to the extrusion component in a transmission connection.

[0067] In this embodiment, after the material is flipped by the flipping device 4, the loosening drive drives the extruder to move, thereby extruding the material to break up the clumped particles in the material, thus loosening the material and creating a gap between the inner bag and the outer cylinder, making it easier and smoother for the inner bag to fall off.

[0068] The loosening drive can be a swing motor, and the extrusion component is a hammer. The swing motor drives the hammer to swing, thereby pounding the material. There can be multiple hammers, and the height of the multiple hammers relative to the rotating disk 72 is different, so that different positions of the material can be pounded, making the material easier to loosen.

[0069] As an alternative, such as Figure 8 As shown, the material loosening drive includes a material loosening base, a material loosening motor 81, and a lead screw 82, and the pressing component is a roller 83; the material loosening base is connected to the working platform 2, the material loosening motor 81 is fixed on the top of the material loosening base, the lead screw 82 is rotatably connected to the material loosening base, the material loosening motor 81 is drive-connected to the lead screw 82, and the roller 83 is threaded onto the outside of the lead screw 82.

[0070] In this embodiment, the loosening drive and the rotation drive 71 work simultaneously. That is, the roller 83 moves along the length direction of the lead screw 82 (that is, the height direction of the material), and the rotation drive 71 drives the rotating disk 72 to rotate, thereby driving the material to rotate. Then the roller 83 can roll on the outer wall of the second outer cylinder and squeeze different positions of the second outer cylinder. The loosening device 8 with this structure is simple.

[0071] Optionally, there may be multiple loosening devices 8, which are spaced apart along the circumference of the rotating disk 72.

[0072] like Figure 8 As shown, based on the above embodiments, the material loosening drive further includes a material loosening linear drive 84; the material loosening base includes a material loosening bracket 85 and a material loosening base, the material loosening bracket 85 is fixed on the working platform 2, one end of the material loosening bracket 85 is connected to the material loosening base (e.g., rotatably connected), the fixed part of the material loosening linear drive 84 is rotatably connected to the material loosening bracket 85, the movable part of the material loosening linear drive 84 is rotatably connected to the material loosening base, and the fixed part of the material loosening motor 81 is connected to the material loosening base.

[0073] Specifically, the loosening base includes a first loosening mounting plate 86, a second loosening mounting plate 87, and a third loosening mounting plate 88. A loosening bracket 85 is fixed to the working platform 2. One end of the loosening bracket 85 is rotatably connected to the first loosening mounting plate 86. The first loosening mounting plate 86 is fixedly connected to the second loosening mounting plate 87, and the third loosening mounting plate 88 is fixedly connected to its top. The fixed part of the loosening linear drive component 84 is rotatably connected to the loosening bracket 85, and the movable part of the loosening linear drive component 84 is rotatably connected to the first loosening mounting plate 86. The fixed part of the loosening motor 81 is fixed to the third loosening mounting plate 88. The first loosening mounting plate 86, the second loosening mounting plate 87, and the third loosening mounting plate 88 can be independent of each other and connected by threaded connections, snap-fit ​​connections, or welding. Optionally, the first loosening mounting plate 86, the second loosening mounting plate 87, and the third loosening mounting plate 88 are integrally formed, resulting in good strength and high assembly efficiency of the loosening device 8.

[0074] Specifically, the second loosening mounting plate 87 is provided with a guide rail 810, and the loosening base also includes a fourth loosening mounting plate 89. One end of the fourth loosening mounting plate 89 is connected to the roller 83, and the other end is slidably mounted on the guide rail 810.

[0075] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, based on the above embodiments, the outer cylinder removal device further includes a pushing device 9, an outer cylinder processing device 10, and a waste cylinder processing device. The pushing device 9 is located on the side of the working platform 2 away from the tilting support frame 42. The outer cylinder processing device 10 is located after the pushing device 9, and the waste cylinder processing device is located after the outer cylinder processing device 10.

[0076] In this embodiment, the pushing device 9 can push the cut outer cylinder into the outer cylinder processing device 10. The outer cylinder processing device 10 has a crushing device driven by a hydraulic press to crush the recovered outer cylinder and then put it into the waste cylinder collection device 11. The outer cylinder removal equipment provided in this embodiment can realize the subsequent processing of the outer cylinder, making it more automated.

[0077] The pushing device 9 may include a pushing drive 91 (e.g., a linear cylinder, linear motor, or linear hydraulic cylinder), a push plate 92, and a placement platform 93, wherein the pushing drive 91 is connected to the push plate 92 in a transmission manner.

[0078] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, based on the above embodiments, the outer cylinder removal device further includes a conveying device 12; the conveying device 12 is disposed below the working platform 2.

[0079] In this embodiment, after the inner bag falls off, it can fall directly onto the conveying device, which can then transport the inner bag to the next process, avoiding manual handling and making material processing more automated.

[0080] It should be noted that a rotary gas connector 13 can be installed on the lower surface of the work platform 2. This can prevent the electrical connection wires from getting tangled and messy when the work platform 2 is flipped.

[0081] It is easy to understand that the operation of the cutting device 3, the flipping device 4, the outer cylinder moving device 5, the loosening device 8, the pushing device 9, the outer cylinder processing device 10, and the conveying device 12 can be controlled by setting up a control system.
