Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of mechanical equipment, and in particular to an auxiliary barrel-disassembling device for cutting special-shaped barrels used in the biomedicine, food and other industries. Background Art

[0002] During factory production, materials are primarily transported and supplied in barrels. Traditionally, for general materials, removing barrels involves manual handling, removing the barrel lid, and then removing the inner bag. However, this process is labor-intensive and inefficient. Even some hazardous waste is stored and transported in barrels. Manual crushing of the barrels and the material is not feasible, requiring mechanical equipment to separate the barrels.

[0003] In order to solve the above technical problems, Chinese invention patent CN202210064630.X discloses an automatic barrel stripping machine, which cuts the material barrel through a cover opening assembly. The cover opening assembly includes a cutting module and a fixing module. The fixing module includes a barrel clamping cylinder arranged on both sides of the paper barrel conveyor line. The piston rod ends of the barrel clamping cylinder are fixed with an arc-shaped positioning plate. The cutting module includes a rotating shaft, a cutting knife, a cutting shaft, a fixed shaft, a suction cup and a three-axis cylinder arranged directly above the material conveying line. The fixed shaft is fixed directly above the paper barrel conveyor line through a frame; the top end of the fixed shaft is connected to the three-axis cylinder for transmission to realize movement along the X-axis, Y-axis and Z-axis, and a suction cup is provided at the bottom end of the fixed shaft; the two cutting shafts are symmetrically arranged with the fixed shaft as the center, and are fixedly connected to the fixed shaft through the rotating shaft; a cutting knife is provided at the bottom end of each cutting shaft. When the paper barrel is loaded to the bottom of the lid opening assembly through the paper barrel conveyor line, the barrel clamping cylinder drives the arc-shaped positioning plate to clamp the paper barrel, and then the three-axis cylinder drives the fixed shaft to move to the top of the paper barrel, and the cutting device is driven to move toward the barrel cover as a whole. The cutting shaft drives the cutting knife to rotate and cut, thereby cutting off the barrel cover. After the cutting is completed, the suction cup at the end of the fixed shaft absorbs the cut barrel cover, and the barrel cover is removed by the three-axis cylinder.

[0004] Although the above-mentioned automatic barrel removing machine can cut barrels, remove the barrel cover and take out the inner bag and material, it is suitable for cutting round barrels with regular shapes and is not suitable for necked material barrels or other special-shaped barrels.

[0005] Therefore, the existing barrel cutting structure can only cut barrels with relatively regular shapes, such as round barrels. For necked material barrels or other irregular shaped barrels, if the packaging and materials in the barrel are to be poured out together, the necking needs to be cut off to expand the opening size of the barrel. However, the existing barrel cutting mechanism is not suitable for barrels of irregular sizes.

[0006] Therefore, it is urgent to propose a new technical solution to solve the problems existing in the existing technology. Summary of the Invention

[0066] In order to solve the problems existing in the prior art, this embodiment provides an auxiliary barrel removal device for special-shaped barrels 9, which can be roughly divided into the following functional modules: a support plate assembly 1, a lifting and flipping assembly 2, a swing arm peeling assembly 3, a swing arm clamp assembly 4, a turntable assembly 5, a slope assembly 6, a barrel removal frame 7, and a push rod cylinder 8. Figure 1 、 2 Through the mutual cooperation of the above eight modules, the special-shaped barrel 9 is cut and the barrel material is separated. The structure and working principle of the auxiliary barrel removal device for special-shaped barrels 9 provided by the present application are described in detail below with respect to each functional module.

[0067] 1. Pallet assembly

[0068] The support plate assembly 1 is used to carry and clamp the special-shaped barrel 9, and is the core functional component of the auxiliary barrel removal device for the special-shaped barrel 9 provided in this application.

[0069] In this embodiment, see Figures 3 to 6 The support plate assembly 1 is provided with a tray 11 for carrying the special-shaped barrel 9, a clamping mechanism for clamping the special-shaped barrel 9, and a connecting seat 12 for installing the clamping mechanism.

[0070] Specifically, the tray 11 is a horizontally arranged disc-shaped structure, and a connecting seat 12 is vertically arranged on one side of the tray 11. The shape of the tray 11 can be round or square, mainly depending on user needs.

[0071] The vertically arranged connecting seat 12 can be a plate or a frame structure, and is mainly used to install the clamping mechanism. The tray 11 and the connecting seat 12 form an L-shaped assembly.

[0072] Multiple clamping mechanisms can be arranged at intervals along the axial direction of the connecting seat 12. In the drawings of this application specification, two clamping mechanisms are arranged at intervals along the axial direction of the connecting seat 12. Of course, the number of clamping mechanisms can be more or less depending on the size and shape requirements of the special-shaped barrel 9.

[0073] In this application, see Figure 4The clamping mechanism mainly includes a clamping swing arm and a rubber strip 13 installed on the inner side of the clamping swing arm. The clamping swing arm includes a left clamping arm 14 and a right clamping arm 15 staggered with the left clamping arm 14. The left clamping arm 14 and the right clamping arm 15 are connected by a locking member 16. The rubber strip 13 is in contact with the outer wall of the special-shaped barrel 9. Figure 3 The left clamping arm 14 and the right clamping arm 15 are staggered in the upper and lower layers and form a ring structure for clamping the special-shaped barrel 9.

[0074] To illustrate the connection between the rubber strip 13 and the left clamping arm 14 and the right clamping arm 15, see Figure 4 One end of the left clamping arm 14 is connected to the connecting base 12, and the other end is a free end. One end of the right clamping arm 15 is connected to the connecting base 12, and the other end is a free end. One end of the rubber strip 13 is fixed to the free end of the left clamping arm 14, and the other end is fixed to the free end of the right clamping arm 15. Fasteners 17 for securing the rubber strip 13 are respectively provided on the opposing inner walls of the left and right clamping arms 14, 15. A fastening screw 18 for securing the rubber strip 13 is provided on the connecting base 12. When the clamping mechanism is adjusted according to the size of the special-shaped barrel 9, the rubber strip 13 adapts to and tightly adheres to the outer wall of the special-shaped barrel 9 under the action of its own elastic force. Therefore, the clamping mechanism of the present application can adapt to special-shaped barrels 9 of various shapes and sizes.

[0075] In this application, in order to enhance the adaptability of the clamping mechanism to various shapes and sizes of special-shaped barrels 9, the left clamping arm 14 and the right clamping arm 15 can be rotatably connected to the connecting seat 12 respectively to increase the range of movement of the clamping arm, such as Figure 6 .

[0076] In this application, the fastener 17 provided on the left clamp arm 14 has the same structure as the fastener 17 provided on the right clamp arm 15. Figure 6 The inner walls of both the left and right clamping arms 14 and 15 are provided with a rotating seat 172 for mounting the fastener 17. A base 173 is provided on the rubber strip 13 near the rotating seat 172. One end of the connecting rod 171, which constitutes the fastener 17, is rotatably connected to the rotating seat 172, and the other end is rotatably connected to the base 173. Therefore, the fastener 17, which secures the rubber strip 13, is also movable, enhancing the adaptability of the clamping mechanism and the rubber strip 13 to various shapes and sizes of special-shaped barrels 9.

[0077] In this application, see Figure 4 、 5, a mounting seat for installing a locking member 16 is provided on the outer wall of the right clamping arm 15, and a hook 141 for connecting the locking member 16 is provided on the outer wall of the left clamping arm 14; the locking member 16 includes a handle 161, and a groove is provided at one end of the handle 161 that is rotatably connected to the mounting seat. A rotating shaft 162 perpendicular to the axial direction of the handle 161 is provided in the groove, and a nut is installed on the rotating shaft 162, and a screw hole is provided on the nut, and the screw hole is arranged along the radial direction of the nut. An adjusting screw 163 is installed on the screw hole, and the adjusting screw 163 is parallel to the axial direction of the handle 161. The other end of the adjusting screw 163 passes through the hook 141 and is threadedly connected with the adjusting nut 164. The adjusting nut 164 is clamped on the hook 141. The clamping force of the rubber strip 13 on the special-shaped barrel can be adjusted by adjusting the depth of the adjusting screw 163 screwed into the adjusting nut 164. The handle 161 is manually rotated to disengage the hook 141 from the locking rod 163 , and the right clamping arm 15 and the left clamping arm 14 are released from the locked state.

[0078] The support plate assembly 1 in the present application is mounted on the turntable assembly 5 and can rotate along with the turntable assembly 5 .

[0079] 2. Turntable assembly

[0080] See also Figure 7 、 8 , the turntable assembly 5 is installed on the barrel dismantling frame 7 to drive the pallet assembly 1 to rotate. In the present application, the turntable assembly 5 includes a reduction motor 51 and a turntable 52 installed on the output shaft of the reduction motor 51. The special-shaped barrel 9 in the present application is placed on the pallet assembly 1, and a positioning block 110 is provided on the lower surface of the pallet assembly 1. The positioning block 110 is provided with a positioning hole. The turntable assembly 5 also includes two cylinders 53 provided on the lower surface of the pallet assembly 1. The two cylinders 53 are relatively arranged on both sides of the positioning block 110. The cylinder 53 extends outward to drive the shaft pin and the positioning hole on the positioning block 110 to connect and position accordingly.

[0081] The turntable assembly 5 is driven by the reduction motor 51 to drive the support plate assembly 1 and the special-shaped barrel 9 to rotate. Figure 8 The reduction motor 51 used in this application is an integrated body of a reducer and a motor, which can be purchased on the market. The output end of the reduction motor 51 can be connected to the turntable 52 through a rotating disk to achieve power transmission.

[0082] In the present application, the turntable assembly 5 is also equipped with a photoelectric switch for detecting the rotation position of the pallet.

[0083] 3. Swing arm peeling assembly

[0084] The swing arm peeling assembly 3 is arranged on the barrel removal frame 7. Figure 11The swing arm peeling assembly 3 mainly includes a vertically arranged support rod 31. A torsion spring 32 and a torque regulator are arranged at one end of the support rod 31 connected to the barrel disassembly frame 7, and a peeling mechanism is arranged at the other end. The peeling mechanism includes a peeling motor 33, a cutter 34 and a profiling wheel 35. The cutter 34 and the profiling wheel 35 are coaxial and arranged at intervals up and down. The shape of the cutter 34 and the shape of the profiling wheel 35 are adapted to the shape of the special-shaped barrel 9, so that profiling cutting can be achieved to adapt to special-shaped barrels 9 of various shapes and sizes.

[0085] In order to adapt to the special-shaped barrels 9 of different heights, the peeling mechanism can be adjusted in height along the axial direction of the support rod 31. This adjustment method can refer to the adjustment method of the general telescopic rod. As long as it can be reliably adjusted and fixed, this application does not impose any special restrictions.

[0086] The swing-arm peeling assembly 3, driven by the push rod cylinder 8, can move the peeling mechanism toward or away from the shaped barrel 9. Specifically, a horizontal swinging rod 36 connected to the push rod cylinder 8 is provided at one end of the support rod 31, which is mounted with a torsion spring 32. The horizontal swinging rod 36 is offset from the peeling mechanism, meaning that, when viewed from above, there is an angle between the peeling mechanism and the horizontal swinging rod 36. When peeling is not required, the push rod cylinder 8 extends outward and pushes the horizontal swinging rod 36 to swing, causing the peeling mechanism, driven by the support rod 31, to swing away from the shaped barrel 9.

[0087] When the push rod cylinder 8 retracts, the peeling mechanism, driven by the support rod 31 and torsion spring 32, swings to the shaped barrel 9, where the rotating shaped barrel 9 is peeled by the profiling wheel 35 and the cutter 34, separating the barrel cover from the barrel body of the shaped barrel 9. Specifically, after the peeling motor 33 is started, the push rod cylinder 8 retracts, causing the swing arm peeling assembly 3 to swing under the action of the torsion spring 32, causing the cutter 34 and the profiling wheel 35 to press against the outer wall of the shaped barrel 9 and swinging as the outer dimensions of the shaped barrel 9 change. When cutting the barrel, the push rod cylinder 8 retracts, and the swing arm peeling assembly 3 swings under the action of the torsion spring 32, causing the profiling wheel 35 and the cutter 34 to press against the shaped barrel 9 for cutting.

[0088] 4. Swing arm clamp assembly

[0089] The swing arm clamp assembly 4 is used to grab the barrel cover and remove the cut barrel cover, which is also set on the disassembly frame. Figure 12 The swing arm clamp assembly 4 mainly includes a swing cylinder 41, a vertically arranged column 42 connected to the output shaft of the swing cylinder 41, a horizontal cantilever 43 installed at one end of the column 42, and a clamp installed at one end of the horizontal cantilever 43 and a cylinder for driving the clamp to move.

[0090] In the specific production process, the clamp can be a three-jaw clamp 44, and the cylinder is a three-jaw cylinder 45 adapted to the three-jaw clamp 44. When the column 42 is driven to rotate, the three-jaw clamp 44 is driven to swing, thereby grasping the barrel cover and removing the picked barrel cover.

[0091] A counterweight 46 is provided at the other end of the horizontal cantilever 43 , and a lifting cylinder 47 is provided at the upper end of the rotating shaft of the horizontal cantilever 43 . When the lifting cylinder 47 extends and retracts, it drives the horizontal cantilever 43 , the clamping claw and the counterweight 46 to rise and fall.

[0092] Of course, the adjustment method used in this application to drive the horizontal cantilever 43 to adjust the height along the axial direction of the column 42 is not limited to the above-mentioned one, and can also be other adjustment methods. As long as it can be reliably adjusted and fixed, this application does not impose any special restrictions.

[0093] 5. Lift and flip components

[0094] The lifting and flipping assembly 2 is used to drive the pallet assembly 1 and the special-shaped barrel 9 to flip, so that the inner packaging and materials in the special-shaped barrel 9 fall freely onto the slope assembly 6 under the action of gravity, and slide along the slope assembly 6 to the target workstation.

[0095] In the present application, the lifting and flipping assembly 2 is mounted on the barrel removal frame 7, and the barrel removal frame 7 is provided with a guide rail 71. The lifting and flipping assembly 2 can be driven along the guide rail 71 to approach or move away from the special-shaped barrel 9, such as Figure 1 When cutting the barrel, it is driven to move along the guide rail 71 to move away from the special-shaped barrel 9 to prevent interference; after the barrel cutting is completed, it moves along the guide rail 71 to move closer to the special-shaped barrel 9.

[0096] In this application, see Figure 9 、 10 The lifting and flipping assembly 2 includes a positioning mechanism for connecting and positioning with the pallet assembly 1. The positioning mechanism is used to connect the pallet assembly 1 that clamps the special-shaped barrel 9. The positioning mechanism includes a clamping seat 22. Four positioning cylinders 23 are provided on the clamping seat 22. The driving ends of the four positioning cylinders 23 are provided with pins. When the positioning cylinders 23 are actuated, the four pins are plugged into the positioning holes on the four positioning connection seats 19 on the pallet assembly 1 in a one-to-one correspondence. The clamping seat 22 is connected to the pallet assembly 1. Then, the two cylinders 53 on the lower surface of the pallet assembly 1 retract, so that the pallet assembly 1 is separated from the turntable assembly 5. The clamping seat 22 is installed in the guide frame 21 and can be driven to move up and down along the guide frame 21. The upward movement of the clamping seat 22 drives the pallet assembly 1 to lift a certain distance relative to the turntable assembly 5, which can prevent interference during flipping.

[0097] In the present application, the lifting and flipping assembly 2 further includes a flip frame 24, on which a flip shaft 25 is provided, and a flip rod 26 is provided on the flip shaft 25. The guide frame 21 is rotatably connected to the flip shaft 25 via the flip rod 26. The flip frame 24 is provided with a flip cylinder 27 and a lifting cylinder 28. The clamping seat 22 is driven by the lifting cylinder 28 to move up and down along the guide frame 21, and the clamping seat 21 is flipped around the flip shaft 25 as the rotation center under the action of the flip cylinder 27. This is mainly to complete the flipping of the lifted pallet assembly 1 and the special-shaped barrel 9.

[0098] When the swing arm peeling assembly 3 completes barrel cutting, the lifting flip assembly 2 moves along the guide rail 71 close to the special-shaped barrel 9, and is docked with the pallet assembly 1 through the positioning mechanism, driving the pallet assembly 1 and the special-shaped barrel 9 to be lifted and separated from the turntable assembly 5, and then driven by the flip cylinder 27 to flip along the flip axis 25, so that the packaging and materials in the special-shaped barrel 9 fall freely onto the guide slope assembly 6 under the action of gravity, and slide down along the guide slope, completing the barrel and material separation after barrel cutting.

[0099] If the inner package and the barrel are stuck, the lifting cylinder 28 can be used to repeatedly drive the clamping seat 21 in the flipping state to cause the inner package and the material to slide off. Therefore, the lifting and flipping assembly 2 of the present application not only realizes the flipping of the material through the decomposition and combination of the lifting action and the flipping action, but also solves the problem of material sticking during the flipping process and other problems such as poor material discharge.

[0100] 6. Slope guide components

[0101] The slope guide assembly 6 in this application includes a material guide chute 61 arranged obliquely. Figure 1 、 2 The material guide chute 61 is mounted on one side of the lifting and flipping assembly 2. When the lifting and flipping assembly 2 drives the pallet assembly 1 and the shaped barrel 9 to flip, the inner packaging and materials in the shaped barrel 9 fall freely into the material guide chute 61 under the action of gravity and slide along the material guide chute 61 to the target workstation. In this application, the guide ramp assembly 6 is used to guide and convey the materials. The materials that slide out of the material guide chute 61 can be further conveyed to a belt conveyor or a feed pipe for downstream transportation.

[0102] The pallet assembly 1, lifting and flipping assembly 2, swing arm peeling assembly 3, swing arm clamping assembly 4, turntable assembly 5, slope guide assembly 6, and push rod cylinder 8 in this application are all integrated on the barrel dismantling frame 7 to form an integrated structure. When moving is required, the entire device can be directly moved away.

[0103] In summary, the present application provides an auxiliary barrel dismantling device for special-shaped barrels 9, which adopts a contour-following method to cut barrels. The special-shaped barrel 9 is driven to rotate by the reduction motor 51, and the cutter 34 and the contour wheel 35 of the swing arm rotary cutting assembly 3 are driven by the torsion spring 32 to stick to the outer wall of the special-shaped barrel 9, and swing as the external dimensions of the special-shaped barrel 9 change to achieve contour cutting. This contour-following structure design is suitable for special-shaped barrels 9 of various external dimensions. The overall device realizes the integrated design of barrel dismantling, barrel turning and material unloading, has a high degree of automation, reduces labor costs, and improves production line efficiency.

In order to make the description concise, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are described; these embodiments that are not explicitly written should also be considered to be within the scope of this specification.

[0105] The present application has been described in a relatively specific and detailed manner through general explanations and specific embodiments. It should be understood that, based on the technical concept of the present application, several conventional adjustments or further innovations may be made to these specific embodiments; however, as long as they do not depart from the technical concept of the present application, the technical solutions obtained by such conventional adjustments or further innovations also fall within the scope of protection of the claims of the present application.
