DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS

[0032] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative work belong to the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0033] In the figure, units with similar structures are denoted by the same reference numerals.

[0034] In the terms of the present invention, words such as "first" and "second" are only for descriptive purposes and cannot be construed as indicating or implying relative importance, nor as limiting the order of precedence.

[0035] The following is a preferred embodiment of an automatic rubber stopper machine provided by the present invention that can solve the above technical problems.

[0036] As Figure 1 shown, the preferred embodiment of the automatic rubber stopper machine provided by the present invention is: an automatic rubber stopper machine for automatically performing rubber stopper operations on a material tube. It includes a feeding mechanism 1 and a rubber stopper mechanism 2, and the feeding mechanism 1 is located above the rubber stopper mechanism 2. The feeding mechanism 1 is used for feeding and arranging the material tubes, and the rubber stopper mechanism 2 is used for rubber stopper processing of the material tubes.

[0037] Please combine Figure 2 、 Figure 6 to elaborate in detail on the feeding mechanism and the rubber stopper mechanism of the present invention as follows:

[0038] Among them, the feeding mechanism 1 includes a feeding box 11, a pipe arranging bin 12, a pipe arranger 13, and a material rack 14. The feeding box 11 is used for adding material tubes, and a feeding port is provided at the bottom of the feeding box 11. The pipe arranger 13 is located below the feeding port and is used for arranging the material tubes. The pipe arranger 13 includes a rotating rod 131 and a pipe arranging wheel 132. The pipe arranging bin 12 is located below the pipe arranger 13, and the pipe arranging bin 12 is provided with an inlet pipe opening and an outlet pipe opening, and the inlet pipe opening is connected to the feeding port. The pipe arranging wheel 132 is provided with a central hole, the pipe arranging wheel 132 is sleeved on the rotating rod 131, and both ends of the rotating rod 131 are connected to the feeding box 11 and penetrate through the feeding box 11. The material rack 14 is located below the pipe arranger 13 and is connected to the outlet pipe opening for loading the arranged material tubes.

[0039] The rubber stopper mechanism 2 includes a tube supporting platform 21, a positioning mechanism, a plug pushing mechanism 23, and a plug transferring mechanism 24. The tube supporting platform 21 is used for supporting and placing the material tubes. The positioning mechanism is located at both ends of the tube supporting platform 21. The plug pushing mechanism 23 is located at one end of the tube supporting platform 21, and the plug pushing mechanism 23 includes a plug pushing pipe 232, and a plug inlet is provided on the side of the plug pushing pipe 232. The plug transferring mechanism 24 includes a vibrating table 242 and a plug transferring rail 241. One end of the plug transferring rail 241 is connected to the plug inlet, and the other end is connected to the vibrating table 242.

[0040] Thus, the discharging mechanism 1 of the present invention is provided with a pipe arranging device 13 at the feeding port and the inlet pipe opening. The pipe arranging wheels 132 on the pipe arranging device 13 can push the pipe in the discharging box 11 and arrange it, and then place it in the pipe rack 14, so that subsequent other processing operations can be carried out.

[0041] The rubber plug mechanism 2 can position the pipe, and then the plug transferring mechanism 24 transfers the rubber plug to the plug pushing mechanism 23. The plug pushing mechanism 23 pushes the rubber plug into the pipe, thereby realizing automatic operation, improving production efficiency, and making the product quality more uniform. It solves the problems in the prior art that manual labor is used for rubber plug operation, resulting in low efficiency, laborious work, and low overall output.

[0042] Please combine Figures 3 - 5 , and the following will elaborate in detail on the pipe arranging device and pipe arranging wheels of the discharging mechanism of the present invention:

[0043] Among them, the pipe arranging wheel 132 of the discharging mechanism 1 of the present invention includes a number of teeth 1321, and these teeth 1321 are evenly distributed around the pipe arranging wheel 132. The teeth 1321 in one direction are set as flat teeth, that is, the teeth 1321 here do not extend outward along the surface of the pipe arranging wheel 132. It is used to provide a falling space for the pipe so that it can fall into the pipe arranging bin 12. At the same time, the pipe arranging wheel 132 can push the pipe during the rotation driven by the transmission rod, preventing it from blocking the feeding port and arranging the pipe. When the pipe falls to the side of the flat teeth of the pipe arranging wheel 132, it can enter the pipe arranging bin 12 through the pipe arranging device 13.

[0044] Please combine Figure 3 、 Figure 4 , and the following will elaborate in detail on the operation of the pipe arranging device of the automatic rubber plug machine of the present invention: In this embodiment, three pipe arranging wheels 132 are provided, which are respectively located at both ends and the middle of the discharging box 11, and the pipe arranging wheels 132 are arranged on the same rotating shaft. As Figure 3 shown, the rotation direction of the pipe arranging wheel 132 can be set such that the left pipe arranging wheel 132 rotates in the A direction, the right pipe arranging wheel 132 rotates in the B direction, and the middle pipe arranging wheel 132 rotates in the C direction. After the pipe is put into the discharging box 11, the pipe arranging device 13 starts to rotate, and the pipe arranging wheels 132 start to push the pipe in the discharging box 11. When the adjacent two teeth 1321 of the pipe arranging wheels 132 at both ends of the discharging box 11 have their openings facing upward, the pipe can enter the gap between the adjacent two teeth 1321. At this time, as the pipe arranging wheel rotates, since the rotation direction of the middle pipe arranging wheel 132 is opposite, the teeth 1321 of the middle pipe arranging wheel 132 will push out the pipe that has already been in the gap between the adjacent two teeth 1321, thereby playing a role in pushing the pipe and keeping the pipe in a moving state in the discharging box 11 and preventing blockage. As Figure 4As shown, when the flat teeth of the middle pipe arranging wheel 132 rotate to the position shown in the figure, they will not be able to move the material pipe, which is equivalent to being in a stationary state. The left pipe arranging wheel 132 still rotates in the A direction, and the right pipe arranging wheel 132 still rotates in the B direction. Then the material pipe can fall into the pipe arranging bin 12 at this time. When the flat teeth of the middle pipe arranging wheel 132 leave the position as shown in Figure 4 shown, the pipe arranger 13 will continue to move the material pipe in the discharging box 11.

[0045] In addition, the present invention also provides another embodiment. In this embodiment, the pipe arranging wheels 132 are arranged on the same rotating shaft and rotate in the same direction. At the same time, the pipe arranging wheels 132 do not need to be provided with flat teeth. After the material pipe is put into the discharging box 11, the pipe arranger 13 starts to rotate, and the pipe arranging wheels 132 start to move the material pipe in the discharging box 11. The material pipe is separated by the teeth 1321 provided on the material pipe under the movement of the pipe arranger 13. At this time, the openings of two adjacent teeth 1321 face upward, and the material pipe can enter between two adjacent teeth 1321 and fall into the gap between two adjacent teeth 1321. Then the pipe arranging wheels 132 drive the material pipe falling between the teeth 1321 to rotate together. During the rotation of the teeth 1321, when the openings of two adjacent teeth 1321 face downward, the material pipe in the gap between two adjacent teeth 1321 will leave the gap and fall into the pipe arranging bin 12, thus completing the automatic arrangement operation of the material pipe.

[0046] It should be noted that in the above embodiment, only one pipe arranging wheel 132 with a larger thickness can be arranged on the rotating shaft, and its thickness is sufficient to ensure that when the material pipe falls between two adjacent teeth 1321, it can remain horizontal in the gap and there will be no situation where the two ends of the material pipe are at different heights, so as not to affect the pipe arranging efficiency and the normal progress of pipe arranging.

[0047] In the present invention, the pipe arranging wheel 132 is also provided with a positioning hole 132 in the middle of two adjacent teeth 1321. Before use, a plug with a diameter corresponding to the hole diameter can be inserted into the positioning hole 1322, so that the pipe arranging wheel 132 can be locked on the rotating rod 131, avoiding the axial movement of the pipe arranging wheel 132 along the transmission rod, ensuring that the pipe arranging wheel 132 can achieve a good pipe arranging effect, and at the same time making the structure of the pipe arranger 13 detachable. Especially for the pipe arranging wheel 132, when encountering material pipes with different diameters, different structures of pipe arranging wheels 132 can be selected, enhancing the applicability of the present invention.

[0048] Meanwhile, the pipe arranging device 13 can also be provided with positioning members 133 for fixing the position of the pipe arranging device 13 to prevent the pipe arranging device 13 from moving axially along the rotating rod 131, enabling it to perform the pipe arranging operation better. The positioning members 133 are respectively arranged at both ends of the rotating shaft and are in close contact with the outer wall of the feeding box 11, thereby restricting the left and right movement of the rotating shaft. The positioning members 133 here can be bolts or snap fasteners or other positioning members 133 that are easy to disassemble, so that the positioning members 133 can be easily removed when replacing the pipe arranging wheel 132 and the pipe arranging device 13 can be taken out.

[0049] For the convenience of the rotation of the rotating rod 131, the pipe arranging device 13 can also be provided with a driving gear 134. The driving gear 134 can more conveniently drive the rotating rod 131. The friction force of manually screwing the driving gear 134 is greater than directly screwing the rotating rod 131, making it much more convenient for manual driving of the rotating rod 131. In addition, a driver 135 can be added, which can further reduce the input of manpower. Using the driver 135 to drive the driving gear 134 to provide power for the rotating rod 131 can also ensure the stable and continuous operation of the discharging system, further improving the production efficiency. The driver 135 includes a driving motor and a driving belt. One end of the driving belt is sleeved on the driving gear, and the other end is sleeved on the driving motor. When the driving motor rotates, it can drive the driving belt, and then the driving gear rotates together, with convenient operation.

[0050] In addition, the feeding mechanism 1 of the present invention can also achieve energy conservation and control the falling of the material pipe by setting sensors. The sensors are arranged on the material rack 14. The sensors are connected to the pipe arranging bin 12 and the driver 135, and a switch is arranged at the outlet. When the sensors detect that the material pipes on the material rack 14 accumulate to a specified height, the outlet is closed, the driver 135 stops working, and then the pipe arranging device 13 stops working, saving energy and preventing the material pipes from falling, thereby achieving precise control of the falling of the material pipes.

[0051] Optionally, the bottom surface of the feeding box 11 can be set as an inclined surface, and the bottom of the feeding box 11 slopes downward along the feeding port direction, which helps the material pipes to fall and avoids the situation where when there are fewer material pipes in the feeding box 11, the pipe arranging device 13 rotates idly and is difficult to play the role of pipe arranging.

[0052] Furthermore, a window 111 can be arranged on the side of the feeding box 11 to facilitate the operator to detect the remaining amount of the material pipes in the feeding box 11 in real time, enabling the operator to add material pipes to the feeding box 11 in a timely manner.

[0053] In the present invention, a baffle 112 can be arranged at one end of the top of the feeding box 11 away from the feeding port, and extension plates 113 can be arranged on both sides. Since the bottom of the feeding box 11 is inclined, more material pipes will accumulate at the top of the slope when the material pipes are stacked. Arranging the baffle 112 and the extension plates 113 can increase the capacity and prevent the material pipes from overflowing due to excessive addition.

[0054] Please combine with Figure 6 and elaborate on the positioning mechanism of the present invention in detail as follows:

[0055] To position the material tube more precisely, the positioning mechanism of the present invention can be provided with two positioning blocks, namely the first positioning block 221 and the second positioning block 222. The first positioning block 221 is slidably arranged at one end of the tube supporting table 21, and the second positioning block 222 is slidably arranged at the other end of the tube supporting table 21.

[0056] When the positioning mechanism is in the first working state, the first positioning block 221 slides to the specified position to the right. At this time, the distance between the first positioning block 221 and the tube supporting table 21 is the shortest, and the first positioning block 221 is used to limit the position of the material tube.

[0057] When the positioning mechanism is in the second working state, the second positioning block 222 slides to the left, pushing the material tube to the specified position so that the material tube is in close contact with the first positioning block 221. At this time, the distance between the second positioning block 222 and the tube supporting table 21 is the smallest, and the distance between the second positioning block 222 and the first positioning block 221 is the length of the material tube. The material tube is clamped by the first positioning block 221 and the second positioning block 222, thus playing a positioning role.

[0058] After the material tube falls onto the tube supporting table 21, the first positioning block 221 moves to the specified position to the right, and then the second positioning block 222 moves to the left, pushing the material tube so that the material tube is in close contact with the first positioning block 221. At this time, both ends of the material tube are fixed by the first positioning block 221 and the second positioning block 222. After the material tube is fixed, the next rubber plug operation can be carried out.

[0059] The positioning mechanism of the present invention can also be provided with a cylinder, which is used to drive the first positioning block 221 and the second positioning block 222, thereby achieving full-automatic operation, further reducing the input of human resources, and at the same time ensuring the production efficiency.

[0060] Please combine with Figure 7 and elaborate on the plug pushing mechanism of the present invention in detail as follows:

[0061] It should be noted that: the plug pushing mechanism 23 can be located above the first positioning block 221 and set separately. It can also be located above the first positioning block 221 and connected to the first positioning block 221. It can also integrate the plug pushing mechanism 23 into the first positioning block 221 for integrated setting. The following mainly elaborates on the integrated setting of the plug pushing mechanism 23 and the first positioning block 221 in detail.

[0062] In the plug-pushing mechanism 23 of the present invention, a push rod 231 can also be provided. The push rod 231 is located at one end inside the plug-pushing pipe 232 and is used to push the rubber plug in the plug-pushing pipe 232 into the material pipe, realizing automatic rubber plug operation. At the same time, the inside of the first positioning block 221 can be set to be hollow to serve as the plug-pushing pipe 232, and an opening is provided on the side of the first positioning block 221 close to the plug-transfer rail 241 as the plug inlet. In this way, the first positioning block 221 can be given the function of the plug-pushing pipe 232, saving costs and the occupied space of the equipment.

[0063] When the first positioning block 221 is in the initial working state, the plug-transfer rail 241 is docked with the plug inlet, and the rubber plug can enter the plug-pushing pipe 232. After the rubber plug enters the plug-pushing pipe 232, subsequent rubber plug operations can be carried out.

[0064] When the first positioning block 221 is in the first working state, the plug-transfer rail 241 is separated from the plug inlet. At this time, after the push rod 231 pushes the rubber plug located in the plug-pushing pipe 232, the push rod 231 closely adheres to the inner wall of the plug-pushing pipe 232 close to the pipe-supporting table 21. After the above operations, one rubber plug operation is completed.

[0065] After a rubber plug is transferred to the plug-transfer rail 241 through the plug-transfer mechanism 24, the rubber plug can enter the plug-pushing pipe 232 through the plug inlet docked with the plug-transfer rail 241. Then, the plug-pushing pipe 232 moves to the right together with the movement of the first positioning block, so that the plug-transfer rail 241 is separated from the plug inlet, and the rubber plug in the plug-transfer rail 241 cannot enter the plug-pushing pipe 232 and can only continue to stay in the plug-transfer rail 241. When the positioning mechanism 22 completes the positioning of the material pipe, the rubber plug in the plug-pushing pipe 232 will be pushed to the right by the push rod 231 located in the plug-pushing pipe 232, and the rubber plug enters one end of the material pipe, thus completing the rubber plug operation.

[0066] To facilitate the processing of the next material pipe immediately after the processing of the previous material pipe is completed, the present invention can also be provided with a pipe-pushing mechanism for pushing away the material pipe with the rubber plug completed. The pipe-pushing mechanism is located on one side of the pipe-supporting table 21. When the processing of the material pipe is completed, the pipe-pushing mechanism can push away the processed material pipe, further realizing automated operation.

[0067] Meanwhile, a cabinet can be arranged below the feeding mechanism. Place the feeding box 11 on the cabinet, with the feeding port extending beyond the edge of the cabinet, so that the lower part of the feeding box 11 can be docked with the pipe supporting table 21. An opening is provided on the side of the cabinet close to the pipe pushing mechanism, and a push-pull switch door is provided on the side away from the pipe pushing mechanism. Storage containers such as paper boxes and cartons can be placed in the cabinet for storing the processed pipe materials. The storage containers can be placed or taken out through the push-pull switch door. At the same time, in order to make the connection between the feeding box 11 and the cabinet more firm, reinforcing ribs can be arranged at the connection between the top surface of the cabinet and the side surface of the feeding box 11. The reinforcing ribs here can be set in an L shape, with two sides closely attached to the top surface of the cabinet and the side surface of the feeding box 11 respectively. Bolt holes can be provided on the reinforcing ribs and bolt connection is adopted. This not only facilitates the disassembly of the feeding box 11 but also strengthens the connection between the feeding box 11 and the cabinet. When the automatic rubber stopper machine needs to be transported or is not in use, the feeding box 11 can be removed from the cabinet and placed into the cabinet through the push-pull switch door on the side of the cabinet, reducing the space occupation and facilitating transportation.

[0068] The above-mentioned pipe pushing mechanism includes a push block 251 and a cylinder. The push block 251 is arranged on one side of the pipe supporting table 21, and the pipe pushing cylinder is used to drive the push block 251 to move in the vertical direction along the extension line of the pipe, so as to facilitate pushing away the pipe, further reducing the input of human labor.

[0069] Please combine Figure 8 , and the following elaborates in detail on the rubber stopper transmission mechanism of the present invention:

[0070] The rubber stopper transmission mechanism 24 of the present invention includes a vibrating table 242 and a rubber stopper transmission track 241. During use, the rubber stoppers can be directly poured into the vibrating table 242, and the vibrating table 242 vibrates the rubber stoppers into the rubber stopper transmission track 241 through vibration. When more and more rubber stoppers enter the rubber stopper transmission track 241, the rubber stoppers at the back will push the rubber stoppers in front to move forward in the rubber stopper transmission track 241 until the rubber stopper at the front end of the rubber stopper transmission track 241 enters the rubber stopper pushing pipeline 232, thus completing the rubber stopper transmission operation.

[0071] In the present invention, in order to further realize the automation of this mechanism and improve the rubber stopper transmission efficiency, the rubber stopper transmission mechanism 24 can be driven by a motor, which includes a conveyor belt and a conveyor motor. The conveyor belt is located on the surface of the rubber stopper transmission track 241, and the conveyor motor is used to drive the conveyor belt to drive. When the vibrating table vibrates the rubber stoppers onto the rubber stopper transmission track, without waiting for the rubber stoppers at the back to push, the rubber stoppers located on the rubber stopper transmission track are directly driven by the conveyor belt to move forward until they enter the rubber stopper pushing pipeline, improving the rubber stopper transmission efficiency.

[0072] Furthermore, compared to conventional vibrating tables 242, the vibrating table 242 of the present invention can be configured as a barrel to accommodate more rubber plugs at once. Furthermore, the plug transfer rail 241 can be tilted so that the side of the rail 241 connected to the push tube mechanism is lower than the side of the rail 241 connected to the vibrating table 242. This allows the rubber plug to slide down the rail 241 into the push tube 232 using its own weight, further improving plug transfer efficiency.

[0073] In addition, the automatic plugging machine provided by the present invention can control various mechanisms through a computer display. The computer display is located on the left front side of the entire machine, namely, next to the tube pushing mechanism. Workers can directly control the operation of the entire machine by operating the computer display, which is easy to operate.

[0074] The working principle of the present invention: The discharge mechanism of the present invention is provided with a pipe arranger at the feed port and the pipe inlet. The pipe arranger wheel on the pipe arranger can move the material pipes in the discharge box and arrange them, and then put them into the material rack. Then, the material pipes can fall into the pipe support platform, and the plug is moved to the plug pushing pipe through the plug transfer rail. Then the first positioning block moves to the right to the specified position, and the second positioning block pushes the material pipe to the left to make it close to the first positioning block. Then the push rod pushes the plug to complete the plugging operation. The pipe pushing mechanism pushes away the processed material pipe, and the unprocessed material pipe falls into the pipe support platform, thus completing the plugging process of the automatic plugging machine of this preferred embodiment.
