DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0031] The following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments.

When in use, when the aluminum can passes through the exit of the cap conveying channel, the aluminum can is driven by the transmission to accurately hang the aluminum cap on the mouth of the aluminum can during the bottle conveying motion, thereby ensuring one bottle and one cap. The aluminum can with the aluminum cap hung on it is smoothly adjusted to the mouth of the aluminum can by the capping guide plate, so that the aluminum cap of the aluminum can will not fall off or bend due to uncontrollable external factors before entering the capping mechanism 2, effectively avoiding the problem of crooked cap and missing cap after the final sealing; when the aluminum can with the aluminum cap hung on it enters the capping mechanism 2 with the transmission, the capping mechanism 2 is driven by the rotating mechanism 1 to While in revolution, the lifting mechanism 4 drives the capping mechanism 2 to move up and down, and the rotary mechanism 3 drives the capping mechanism 2 to rotate, so that the capping mechanism 2 can complete the actions of pressing the cap, thread forming and folding the edge, thereby achieving the threaded sealing effect of the aluminum can and the aluminum cap.

When in use, the capping mechanism 2 is vertically installed in the accommodating hole 105, and the first motor module 103 is used to drive the driving shaft 102 to rotate, so that the carrying plate 104 drives the capping mechanism 2 to rotate around the driving shaft 102, thereby realizing the orbital motion of the capping mechanism 2. Specific embodiment three:
[0037] Based on the specific embodiment 2, Figure 5-11As shown, the capping mechanism 2 includes a support cylinder 201 vertically fixed at the lower end of the receiving hole 105; a transmission cylinder 202 connected to the rotary mechanism 3 is inserted into the support cylinder 201; the transmission cylinder 202 rotates with the support cylinder 201; an extension cylinder 203 is coaxially fixed to the lower end of the transmission cylinder 202; the outer periphery of the extension cylinder 203 has an inverted conical surface 204; a guide rod 205 is slidably inserted into the extension cylinder 203; the upper end of the guide rod 205 is slidably inserted into the The first spring 216 is vertically connected to the upper end of the guide rod 205; the upper end of the first spring 216 is connected to the movable column 217; the movable column 217 is slidably fitted in the transmission cylinder 202; the lower end of the guide rod 205 is coaxially fixed with a positioning column 206 for pressing the aluminum cover; the outer periphery of the positioning column 206 is fixed with a mounting sleeve 207; the lower surface of the mounting sleeve 207 is vertically fixed with a plurality of first connecting columns 208; the plurality of first connecting columns 208 The lower ends of the mounting sleeve 207 are connected by a limiting ring 209; the first connecting column 208 is fixedly connected to the limiting ring 209; the inner edge of the limiting ring 209 has a protruding portion bent upward; two pairs of grooves 210 are vertically opened on the circumferential outer wall of the mounting sleeve 207; the upper and lower ends of the two pairs of grooves 210 pass through the top and bottom surfaces of the mounting sleeve 207 respectively; the two pairs of grooves 210 are rotatably connected to the supporting columns 211; the upper ends of the two pairs of supporting columns 211 are connected to the push-pull rods with an H-shaped structure 212; a roller 213 is rotatably connected between the two upper ends of the push-pull rod 212; the circumferential wheel surface of the roller 213 conflicts with the conical surface 204; the lower ends of a pair of supporting columns 211 are connected with symmetrically arranged threaded hobs 214; the threaded hobs 214 are conventional structures in this field, and they are circular disc-shaped structures; the lower ends of another pair of supporting columns 211 are connected with symmetrically arranged folding hobs 215; the folding hobs 215 are conventional structures in this field, and they are circular disc-shaped structures. During use, while the rotating mechanism 1 drives the sealing mechanism 2 to perform orbital motion, the lifting mechanism 4 drives the guide rod 205 to move up and down in the transmission cylinder 202, prompting the positioning column 206 to drive the thread hob 214 and the folding hob 215 to move up and down through the mounting sleeve 207 and the supporting column 211. At the same time, since the circumferential wheel surface of the roller 213 conflicts with the conical surface 204, the thread hob 214 and the folding hob 215 approach or move away from the aluminum cover, and the rotary mechanism 3 drives the transmission cylinder 202 to rotate in the support cylinder 201, prompting the thread hob 214 and the folding hob 215 to rotate around the aluminum cover, thereby realizing the actions of pressing the cover, thread forming and folding.
[0038] Among them Figure 11As shown, the lower ends of the push-pull rod 212 are both rotatably connected to the upper end of the support column 211; a first sliding post is slidably inserted into the middle arm of the push-pull rod 212; the lower end of the first sliding post is fixed to the upper end surface of the support column 211; a second spring 218 is sleeved around the outer periphery of the first sliding post; the upper end of the second spring 218 is fixed to the upper end of the first sliding post; and the lower end of the second spring 218 is fixed to the middle arm of the push-pull rod 212. During use, as the roller 213 rolls up and down on the conical surface 204, the push-pull rod 212 rotates around the support column 211. Then, under the elastic action of the second spring 218, the first sliding post pulls the support column 211 to rotate within the groove 210, thereby causing the thread cutter 214 and the hem cutter 215 to move closer to or away from the aluminum cover.
[0039] Among them Figure 11 As shown, the lower end of the support column 211 has a vertical through-groove; a second slide column is disposed within the through-groove; a third spring 219 is sleeved around the outer circumference of the second slide column; the lower end of the third spring 219 is fixed to the lower surface of the through-groove; the upper end of the third spring 219 is fixed to the upper end of the second slide column; the lower end of the second slide column is inserted into the lower surface of the through-groove and passes through the lower end of the support column 211; two thread cutters 214 and two hemming cutters 215 are respectively fixed to the lower ends of the two pairs of second slide columns. During use, the thread cutters 214 and hemming cutters 215 are elastically mounted on the support column 211 using the second slide column and the third spring 219, effectively ensuring the effective use of the thread cutters 214 and hemming cutters 215. Specific embodiment four:
[0041] Based on the specific embodiment 3, Figure 1-6As shown, the rotary mechanism 3 includes a second motor module 301 fixed to the upper surface of the support plate 101; the second motor module 301 is a conventional structure in the field, which is composed of a gear reducer and a differential motor; the output shaft of the second motor module 301 passes through the support plate 101 and is horizontally fixed with a first gear 302; the first gear 302 is meshed with an outer gear ring 303 coaxially arranged with the drive shaft 102; the outer gear ring 303 is rotatably connected to the lower surface of the support plate 101; an inner gear ring 303 is coaxially arranged below the outer gear ring 303 4; the inner gear ring 304 and the outer gear ring 303 are connected by a plurality of vertically arranged second connecting columns 305; the first connecting column 208 is screwed to the inner gear ring 304 and the outer gear ring 303; the inner gear ring 304 is rotatably connected to the upper surface of the carrier plate 104; the inner gear ring 304 is meshed with a plurality of second gears 306; the second gears 306 are rotatably connected to the upper surface of the carrier plate 104; the second gears 306 are meshed with a third gear 307; the third gear 307 is fixedly sleeved on the outer periphery of the transmission cylinder 202. During use, the transmission cylinder 202 is driven to rotate by the second motor module 301 through the first gear 302, the outer gear ring 303, the first connecting column 208, the inner gear ring 304, the second gear 306 and the third gear 307, so that the thread hob 214 and the folding hob 215 rotate around the aluminum can, and the folding hob 215 fits the lower edge of the aluminum can mouth. Under the action of the third spring 219, the thread hob 214 and the folding hob 215 complete the actions of capping, thread forming and folding, so that the entire process of thread forming and folding sealing is achieved while completing the capping, thereby achieving the thread sealing effect of the aluminum can and aluminum lid; at the same time, due to the particularity of the material, the requirements for the top pressure and the side pressure of the hob are extremely high, and the accuracy of the number of threads formed is also greatly improved. Therefore, the second motor module 301 is used to fine-tune the rotation speed of the capping mechanism 2 to ensure that the thread forming of the aluminum can and the aluminum lid can form a sealing thread without damaging the outer shape of the aluminum can body, thereby achieving the best sealing effect. Specific embodiment five:
[0043] Based on the specific embodiment 4, Figure 2-6 and Figure 12As shown, the lifting mechanism 4 includes a cylindrical cam 401 coaxially sleeved on the outer periphery of the driving shaft 102; the cylindrical cam 401 is set to a secondary rolling stroke curve; the upper end of the cylindrical cam 401 is fixed to the lower surface of the support plate 101; the flange of the cylindrical cam 401 includes a first arc-shaped edge, a second arc-shaped edge with a horizontal position lower than the first arc-shaped edge, and a pair of symmetrically arranged inclined edges; the upper ends of the two inclined edges are respectively connected to the opposite ends of the first arc-shaped edge; the lower ends of the two inclined edges are respectively connected to the opposite ends of the second arc-shaped edge; the middle part of the second arc-shaped edge has a semicircular structure The protruding part; a plurality of lifting blocks 402 corresponding to the guide rod 205 are provided on the circumferential side of the cylindrical cam 401; the lifting block 402 is connected to a first limiting wheel 403 and a second limiting wheel 404 which rotate from top to bottom close to a surface of the cylindrical cam 401; the circumferential wheel surface of the first limiting wheel 403 conflicts with the upper surface of the flange of the cylindrical cam 401; the circumferential wheel surface of the second limiting wheel 404 conflicts with the lower surface of the flange of the cylindrical cam 401; a push-pull column 405 is vertically fixed to the lower end of the lifting block 402; the lower end of the push-pull column 405 is inserted into the transmission cylinder 202 and fixed to the upper end of the movable column 217. During use, while the rotating mechanism 1 drives the sealing mechanism 2 to perform orbital motion, the first limiting wheel 403 and the second limiting wheel 404 move on the flange of the cylindrical cam 401, prompting the push-pull column 405 to drive the guide rod 205 to move up and down in the transmission cylinder 202 through the movable column 217 and the first spring 216; in the above process, the cylindrical cam 401 is set to a secondary rolling stroke curve. Due to the soft and thin body of the aluminum can and the similar materials of the aluminum cover and the aluminum can, the side pressure control requirements of the thread hob 214 and the folding hob 215 are extremely high. Therefore, secondary rolling is required to achieve the fit of the thread forming. At the same time, by adjusting the second motor module 301, the number of thread turns can be met while achieving a perfect thread forming effect. The advantage of this structure is that, according to the set cam curve, it can avoid the problem of threaded sealing of aluminum caps and aluminum cans made of similar materials. Through the secondary rolling design of the cylindrical cam 401 and the speed regulation of the second motor module 301, the aluminum can body will not be deformed due to excessive side pressure, nor will the thread forming be poor and the sealing be unqualified due to too small side pressure. This effectively improves the performance of threaded sealing of aluminum cans and aluminum caps made of similar materials, greatly meets the market demand, and at the same time reduces costs for customers to a greater extent and increases market access.
[0044] During the entire process of rotating the assembly around one circle, the capping mechanism 2 completes two thread forming and rolling operations according to the preset curve of the cylindrical cam 401. After the first thread rolling is completed, the curve of the cylindrical cam 401 rises, and the capping mechanism 2 follows the rise. When the thread roller 214 is opened and retracted and the folding roller 215 has not yet left the can body of the aluminum can, the curve of the cylindrical cam 401 drops, the thread roller 214 is tightened, and the second rolling operation is completed. This process ensures that the side pressure of the thread roller 214 and the capping mechanism 2 can complete the perfect thread forming while being within the range of the can body's bearing capacity without deformation.
[0045] Due to the particularity and similarity of the materials of the can body and the lid, the ultimate goal of this structure is to ensure that the can body does not deform and the thread forming effect meets the requirements. The special design of the secondary rolling curve of the cylindrical cam 401 is very likely to lead to insufficient number of thread turns. At this time, it can be compensated by the differential motor of the second motor module 301; the differential motor of the second motor module 301 is started, and the transmission cylinder 202 is driven to rotate through the first gear 302, the outer gear ring 303, the first connecting column 208, the inner gear ring 304, the second gear 306 and the third gear 307, thereby changing the rotation speed of the capping mechanism 2 and adjusting the number of thread forming turns; in addition, due to the particularity of the material of the aluminum can body and the aesthetics of the thread forming, the differential motor of the second motor module 301 needs to be used to fine-tune the number of thread forming turns to achieve the effect of the thread hob 214 rising and falling forming, to ensure that the seal is qualified and presents a perfect appearance.
[0046] While the rotating mechanism 1 drives the capping mechanism 2 to rotate, the capping mechanism 2 moves around the curve of the cylindrical cam 401, and the rotary mechanism 3 drives the capping mechanism 2 to rotate synchronously, starting the first rolling, the thread hob 214 is tightened, and the folding hob 215 is lowered to the edge of the aluminum can body and tightened to complete the thread forming; then the capping mechanism 2 rises along the curve of the cylindrical cam 401, the thread hob 214 opens and retracts, and at this time the folding hob 215 still leaves the can body edge, the cylindrical cam 401 curve begins to descend, and the second rolling begins to ensure the effect of the thread sealing. During this process, the differential motor of the second motor module 301 is adjusted to the optimal frequency so that the number of thread forming turns meets the required number of thread turns of the can mouth.
[0047] In summary, the rotary threaded sealing device for aluminum cans and aluminum lids of the present invention can protect the can body from deformation and damage while ensuring the threaded sealing process of aluminum cans and aluminum lids made of similar materials, and effectively achieve the sealing effect, thereby meeting the needs of customers and the market.
