Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to packaging machinery, specifically to a high-speed chip counter. Background Technology

[0002] Packaging machinery refers to machines capable of completing all or part of the packaging process for products and goods. The packaging process includes major steps such as filling, wrapping, and sealing, as well as related pre- and post-packaging processes such as washing, stacking, cutting, and unpacking. Current wet wipe production and packaging processes are automated, including raw material folding, liquid filling, and heat sealing. The final product is typically packaged by stacking multiple wet wipes. Wet wipes are typically conveyed horizontally on a standard conveyor belt, where they are counted and then fall into a container. Due to the small overall volume of wet wipes, they are usually packaged in one pass using a four-side sealing machine to improve production efficiency. For example, our company's four-side sealing wet wipe packaging machine typically operates on a 1-out-6 basis, cutting six wipes at a time at a rate of 80 times per minute, resulting in a total output of 480 wipes per minute. However, the current packaging standard is five wipes per box, requiring 96 boxes to be packaged per minute, a speed that our existing wipe counting machine cannot achieve. The specific reasons are that a 1-out-6 wipe counting operation is difficult and fast, the horizontal feeding section facilitates subsequent boxing, and the synchronization of other conveying devices is difficult to coordinate.

[0010] The present invention also includes: The counting pressure bar is located on the counting frame and works in conjunction with the counting support to form a pusher groove for the counting pusher plate to push out.

[0011] The present invention also includes a flipping device, which is disposed between the counting device and the second conveying device, and the number of the flipping device is the same as that of the counting device.

Detailed Implementation

[0026] The embodiments of the present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings: Depend on Figure 1 Combination Figure 2-10 As shown, a high-speed microcontroller includes a frame 1, and further includes: Feeding device 2, mounted on frame 1, is used to receive and feed materials; Diverting device 3 is located on the frame 1 behind the feeding device 2 in the feeding direction, and is used to divert the material conveyed by the feeding device 2. The first conveying device 4 is used to receive the materials diverted by the diversion device 3 and convey them to the next process; there are at least two first conveying devices 4. The counting device 5 is located behind the first conveying device 4 in the conveying direction and is used to collect and count materials. The counting device 5 is arranged correspondingly to the first conveying device 4. The counting device 5 includes multiple material holding spaces 56, and the uppermost material holding space 56 is used to receive the materials conveyed by the first conveying device 4. The second conveying device 6 is used to receive materials conveyed on different counting devices 5 and for packaging. The feeding device 2, diversion device 3, first conveying device 4, counting device 5, and second conveying device 6 are arranged sequentially. The beneficial effect of this invention is that the diversion device allows for material separation, meaning the same batch of material is divided into different counting devices for counting, improving production efficiency. Finally, the materials are merged through the second conveying device, further enhancing production efficiency. This invention also has advantages such as simple structure, high assembly efficiency, reliable operation, and long service life.

[0027] The diversion device 3 includes: The suction bag turntable 31 is provided with a plurality of suction bag components 32 for picking up and putting down materials; the suction bag component 32 has a first position for picking up materials and a second position for putting materials down. The connecting shaft 33 is connected to the suction bag turntable 31 and drives the suction bag turntable 31 to move. The suction bag rotation drive 34 is connected to the connecting shaft 33 and is used to drive the connecting shaft 33 and the suction bag turntable 31 provided on the connecting shaft 33 to rotate. The suction bag lifting drive 35 is connected to the connecting shaft 33 and is used to drive the connecting shaft 33 and the suction bag turntable 31 mounted on the connecting shaft 33 to lift and lower. This structure allows the suction bag to be lifted and lowered via the suction bag lifting drive, facilitating the loading and unloading of materials. The suction bag rotation drive allows the suction bag to rotate, thus placing the sucked materials onto different first conveying devices. In this invention, there are two sets of first conveying devices. For example, in a packaging machine with one output for six materials, the suction bag can first rotate 90 degrees to place three materials, and then rotate 180 degrees to place another three materials onto the first conveying device, improving production efficiency.

[0028] The present invention also includes a suction bag tray 36 for receiving horizontal material conveyed on the feeding device 2; The suction bag turntable 31 is square in shape, with a suction bag groove 311 on each side. Each groove 311 contains multiple suction bag components 32, which are slidably mounted on the turntable 31. The suction bag components 32 on one side of the turntable 31 pick up horizontal material from the suction bag support plate 36 and distribute it to different first conveying devices 4. The suction bag support plate facilitates material support and suction by the suction bag components. This diversion method facilitates counting by the counting device, enabling rapid and reliable feeding, and facilitating subsequent material collection and packaging.

[0029] The first conveying device 4 includes: The first conveyor frame 41 is mounted on the frame 1; The first conveyor belt 42 is mounted on the first conveyor frame 41 for horizontal placement and conveying of materials; The first pressure plate 43 is disposed on the first conveyor frame 41 and extends from the end of the first conveyor belt 42 in the discharge direction to above the material holding space 56 of the counting device 5. The first pressure plate limits the material on the first conveyor device to prevent the material at the discharge port of the first conveyor device from failing to reliably fall into the counting device after being counted.

[0030] The counting device 5 includes: The counting frame 51 is mounted on the frame 1; The counting plate 52 has multiple pieces and has a first position for inserting into the counting frame 51 to form a material holding space 56 and a second position for the material to fall. The counting drive unit 53 is mounted on the counting frame 51 and connected to the counting plate 52 to drive the counting plate 52 to reciprocate. The counting and pushing drive component 54 is mounted on the counting frame 51; The counting pusher 55 is connected to and driven by the counting pusher drive 54 to reciprocate, and is used to push the material in the material holding space 56 to the next process. Specifically, the counting pusher is provided with a counting baffle, and the counting baffle near the first conveying device is provided with a notch to facilitate reliable feeding and counting.

[0031] The material holding space 56 includes a first counting chamber and a second counting chamber. The first counting chamber is formed above the counting plate 52, and a counting support 57 is provided on the counting frame 51. The lowest counting plate 52 and the counting support 57 cooperate to form the second counting chamber. The counting push plate 55 is inserted into the second counting chamber to push out the material. Specifically, the present invention uses multiple counting plates, each of which forms a first counting chamber. This creates multiple material holding spaces during counting. The first counting chambers are vertically arranged, and when the counting plate retracts, the upper first counting chamber falls into the next first counting chamber. This reduces the material falling height and prevents individual materials from overturning. At the same time, the multiple first counting chambers have a large margin, ensuring that the second counting chambers on different counting devices always have material to be boxed, facilitating the synchronous entry of materials into the second conveying device.

[0032] The present invention also includes: The counting pressure rod 58 is mounted on the counting frame 51 and cooperates with the counting support 57 to form a pusher groove 59 for the counting pusher plate 55 to push out. This structure facilitates reliable material discharge.

[0033] The present invention also includes a flipping device 7, which is disposed between the counting device 5 and the second conveying device 6. The number of flipping devices 7 is the same as that of the counting devices 5. It is used to flip the materials that are horizontally stacked in the counting devices 5 so that they can be conveyed by the second conveying device 6. The pushing device 8 is used to push the material flipped vertically by the turning device 7 into the second conveying device 6. It includes multiple pushing conveyor belts 81, each equipped with a pushing head 82 for easy pushing. The pushing conveyor belts 81 are correspondingly arranged with the turning devices 7 and are used to simultaneously push materials from different turning devices 7. The turning devices can flip horizontal materials, allowing them to enter the second conveying device vertically, facilitating product packaging.

[0034] The flipping device 7 includes: A tilting frame 71 is mounted on the frame 1; A rotating turntable 72 is mounted on a rotating frame 71 and rotates in conjunction with the rotating frame 71; the rotating turntable 72 is provided with a plurality of rotating cavities 73; the rotating cavity 73 has a first position for receiving material horizontally and a second position for flipping the horizontal material in the rotating cavity 73 into a vertical position. The flipping drive component 74 is mounted on the flipping frame 71 and is used to drive the flipping turntable 72 to rotate circumferentially; The turntable stop 75 is used to limit the material when the tilting cavity 73 moves from the first position to the second position; A flipping guide plate 76, mounted on the flipping frame 71, is used to guide the movement of vertical materials when the pusher head 82 pushes them. This turntable baffle can limit the material when it flips, thus allowing the product to be fed vertically.

[0035] The present invention also includes a discharge device 9, which is located at the rear end of the second conveying device 6 in the conveying direction on the frame 1, for conveying the material on the second conveying device 6 and for packaging. The second conveying device 6 includes a conveyor belt 61 with multiple conveying baffles 62. Two conveying baffles 62 cooperate to form a conveying space 63. The distance traveled by the conveying space 63 on the conveyor belt 61 each time is directly proportional to the number of counting devices 5. In this invention, the conveying space travels two units at a time, which is the same as the number of counting devices. This facilitates fast, continuous, and synchronous feeding, enabling rapid boxing and improving product assembly efficiency.
