[0018] Preferably, the inspection table is connected to a transverse moving track, and both the first conveying clamp and the second conveying clamp are slidably connected to the transverse moving track.
[0019] A method for producing vials includes the following steps:
[0020] Step S1: The vial is inspected by the light inspection component;
[0021] Step S2: The vial is placed into the nest box through the placement component;
[0022] Step S3: The vial placed in the nest box is sealed by the sealing component.
[0023] In step S1, the vial undergoes inspection by the light inspection component, including:
[0024] Step S11: The vial removal robot takes out the vials produced by the vial production device and places them on the first vial conveyor belt. The vials are transported to the first conveyor gripper via the first vial conveyor belt. The first conveyor gripper picks up four vials at a time and transports them to the light inspection device via the transverse moving track.
[0025] Step S12: After the light inspection is completed, the second conveyor chuck will transport the vial at the light inspection device to the second vial conveyor belt, and then transport the vial to the pick-up location via the second vial conveyor belt.
[0026] Step S2, which involves placing the vial into the nest box via the placement assembly, includes:
[0027] In step S21, the empty nest box conveyor belt transports an empty nest box from the nest box stacking rack to the third transfer robot arm. The third transfer robot arm picks up and moves the empty nest box onto the nest box placement rack, and then transports the empty nest box to the second transfer robot arm via the back-and-forth conveyor belt.
[0028] Step S22: The second transfer robot arm picks up and moves the empty nest box to the nest box placement area on the first workbench;
[0029] Step S23: The nest board conveyor belt transports a nest board from the nest board stacking rack to the second transfer robot, which then picks up and moves the nest board into the nest box.
[0030] Step S24: The first robotic arm moves to move the vials to be picked up to the nesting board in the nesting box on the nesting box placement area of the first workbench through the gripper, and places them in sequence;
[0031] Step S25: After one layer of nesting boards is filled, the nesting board conveyor belt transports another nesting board from the nesting board stacking rack to the second transfer robot. The second transfer robot picks up and moves the nesting board into the nesting box. Multiple layers of nesting boards can be placed in one nesting box.
[0032] Step S26: After the nest boxes are full, the back-and-forth conveyor belt transports the nest box placement rack to the second transfer robot. The second transfer robot moves the nest boxes filled with vials into the nest box placement rack. Then, the back-and-forth conveyor belt transports the nest box placement rack to the third transfer robot. The third transfer robot moves the nest boxes filled with vials onto the nest box conveyor belt.
[0033] Step S27: Repeat steps S21-S26 to continue placing the vial into the new nest box.
[0034] Step S3, the process of sealing the vial placed in the nest box using a sealing assembly, includes:
[0035] Step S31: The nest box filled with vials moves forward via the nest box conveyor belt. When it passes the lifting and rotating device, the lifting and rotating device does not move when the nest box is in the correct orientation. When the nest box is in the wrong orientation, the lifting and rotating device lifts and rotates the nest box to adjust its orientation and then continues to place it on the nest box conveyor belt to move forward.
[0036] In step S32, when the nest box reaches the cover material transfer robot, a blocking cylinder rises to stop the nest box from moving. The cover material transfer robot picks up a cover material from the cover material stacking rack and places it in the nest box. Then the blocking cylinder lowers the nest box and continues to move with the nest box conveyor belt.
[0037] In step S33, when the nest box reaches the sealing paper transfer robot, another blocking cylinder rises to stop the nest box from moving. The sealing paper transfer robot picks up a sealing paper from the sealing paper stacking rack and places it in the nest box. Then, the blocking cylinder lowers the nest box and continues to move with the nest box conveyor belt.
[0038] In step S34, when the nest box reaches the heat sealing device, a blocking cylinder rises to stop the nest box from moving. Inside the heat sealing device, a lifting cylinder lifts the nest box. Then, the heat sealing device heat seals the sealing paper to the nest box. After completion, the lifting cylinder lowers the nest box and continues to be transported to the finished product placement area via the nest box conveyor belt.
[0039] Preferably, a rejection buffer channel is also set up next to the second vial conveyor belt. Vials that fail the light inspection will be conveyed to the rejection buffer channel by the second conveyor belt.
[0040] The beneficial effects of this invention are: This vial production line connects multiple processes for continuous production, avoiding manual transfer of vials between processes, thus preventing any impact on the cleanliness of the vials and ensuring that the produced vials meet the relevant cleanliness requirements; at the same time, the continuous production of multiple processes avoids wasted time and increases work efficiency.

Furthermore, the terms "first," "second," and "third" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance.
[0053] The invention will now be further described with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0054] like Figure 1-6 As shown, a vial production line includes a light inspection component 1, a tray loading component 2, and a sealing component 3. The light inspection component 1 is located at one end of the tray loading component 2 and is used for visual inspection of the vials. The tray loading component 2 is used to place multiple vials into a box. The sealing component 3 is located at the other end of the tray loading component 2 and is used to seal the vials after they have been placed into the box. The end of the light inspection component 1 facing away from the tray loading component 2 is connected to a vial production device 41. A vial removal robot 40 is located next to the vial production device 41.
[0055] like Figure 2 As shown, the light inspection assembly 1 includes a light inspection table 110, on which a first vial conveyor belt 11 is connected. A first conveyor gripper 12 is connected to the light inspection table 110 and engages with one end of the first vial conveyor belt 11. A light inspection device 13 is connected to the light inspection table 110. The first conveyor gripper 12 is used to convey vials on the first vial conveyor belt 11 to the light inspection device 13. The end of the first vial conveyor belt 11 away from the light inspection table 110 is engaged with the vial production device 41. A second conveyor gripper 14 is provided on the other side of the light inspection device 13. The second vial conveyor belt 15 has a second conveyor gripper 14 for conveying vials that have passed light inspection onto it. The other end of the second vial conveyor belt 15 is the pick-up point 16. A rejection buffer channel (not shown in the figure) is also provided next to the second vial conveyor belt 15. Vials that fail light inspection are conveyed to the rejection buffer channel by the second conveyor gripper 14. The light inspection device 13 may include an inspection camera and a backlight panel. A lifting and rotating device is provided under the light inspection device 13 to lift and rotate the vials for the inspection camera to take pictures and inspect for defects. The light inspection table 110 is also equipped with a first robotic arm 17. The output end of the first robotic arm 17 is connected to a clamping fixture 18, which transports the vials in the pick-up point 16 to the receiving assembly 2. A transverse moving track 19 is connected to the light inspection table 110, and the first conveyor gripper 12 and the second conveyor gripper 14 are both slidably connected to the transverse moving track 19.
[0056] Specifically, vials are conveyed to the first conveyor 12 via the first vial conveyor belt 11. The first conveyor 12 picks up four vials at a time and conveys them to the light inspection device 13 via the lateral moving track 19. After the light inspection is completed, the second conveyor 14 conveys the vials at the light inspection device 13 to the second vial conveyor belt 15, and then conveys the vials to the waiting area 16 via the second vial conveyor belt 15. The first robotic arm 17 moves to move the vials at the waiting area 16 to the nest box in the nest box placement area 22 on the first workbench 21 via the gripper 18.
[0057] like Figure 3 , 4 As shown, the nesting assembly 2 includes a first workbench 21, with a nest box placement area 22 at the right end of the first workbench 21, which is connected to the light inspection station 110. A second transfer robot 23 is installed at the nest box placement area 22. A nest board conveyor belt 24 is connected to the first workbench 21. One end of the nest board conveyor belt 24 is connected to the second transfer robot 23, and the other end of the nest board conveyor belt 24 is equipped with a nest board stacking rack 25. An empty nest box conveyor belt 26 is installed at the end of the first workbench 21 away from the light inspection station 110. A nest box stacking rack 27 is installed at one end of the empty nest box conveyor belt 26, and the other end of the nest box stacking rack 27 is connected to the third transfer robot 28. A reciprocating conveyor belt 29 is installed between the third transfer robot 28 and the second transfer robot 23, and a nest box placement rack 210 is fixedly connected to the reciprocating conveyor belt 29.
[0058] Specifically, a nest box can hold multiple layers of vials. Each time a layer of vials is filled, the nest board conveyor belt 24 transports one nest board from the nest board stacking rack 25 to the second transfer robot 23, which then picks up and moves the nest board into the nest box. Once a nest box is full, the reciprocating conveyor belt 29 transports the nest box placement rack 210 to the second transfer robot 23, which then moves the nest box filled with vials into the nest box placement rack 210. Finally, the reciprocating conveyor belt 29 transports the nest box placement rack 210 to the third... At transfer robot 28, the third transfer robot 28 transports the nest box filled with vials to the nest box conveyor belt 32; at this time, the empty nest box conveyor belt 26 transports an empty nest box from the nest box stacking rack 27 to the third transfer robot 28, the third transfer robot 28 picks up and transports the empty nest box to the nest box placement rack 210, and transports the empty nest box to the second transfer robot 23 via the back-and-forth conveyor belt 29, the second transfer robot 23 picks up and transports the empty nest box to the nest box placement area 22 on the first workbench 21, and continues to fill subsequent vials.
[0059] like Figure 5 , 6 As shown, the packaging component 3 includes a second workbench 31, which is connected to the left end of the first workbench 21. A nest box conveyor belt 32 is mounted on the second workbench 31. A cover material transfer robot 33 and a cover material stacking rack 34 are mounted on one side of the nest box conveyor belt 32. A sealing paper transfer robot 35 and a sealing paper stacking rack 36 are mounted on the rear side of the nest box conveyor belt 32. A heat sealing device 37 is also mounted on the nest box conveyor belt 32. A lifting and rotating device 38 is mounted on the nest box conveyor belt 32 for rotating and adjusting the position of the nest boxes. Multiple blocking cylinders 39 are mounted on the nest box conveyor belt 32, located at the cover material transfer robot 33, the sealing paper transfer robot 35, and the heat sealing device 37, respectively.
[0060] Specifically, the nest boxes filled with vials are transported to the nest box conveyor belt 32 by the third transfer robot 28. The nest boxes move forward on the conveyor belt 32. When the direction is correct, the lifting and rotating device 38 remains stationary. When the direction is incorrect, the lifting and rotating device 38 lifts and rotates the nest box to adjust its direction before placing it back on the nest box conveyor belt 32. When the nest box reaches the cap material transfer robot 33, a blocking cylinder 39 rises to stop the nest box from moving. The cap material transfer robot 33 picks up a cap material from the cap material stacking rack 34 and places it inside the nest box. Then, the blocking cylinder 39 lowers the nest box, which then follows the nest box conveyor belt. When the conveyor belt 32 moves to the sealing paper transfer robot 35, another blocking cylinder 39 rises to stop the movement of the nest box. The sealing paper transfer robot 35 picks up a sealing paper from the sealing paper stacking rack 36 and places it in the nest box. Then, the blocking cylinder 39 lowers the nest box and moves with the nest box conveyor belt 32. When it moves to the heat sealing device 37, one blocking cylinder 39 rises to stop the movement of the nest box. The heat sealing device 37 has a lifting cylinder that lifts the nest box. Then, the heat sealing device 37 heat seals the sealing paper to the nest box. After completion, the lifting cylinder lowers the nest box and continues to be transported to the finished product placement area by the nest box conveyor belt 32.
[0061] This vial production line connects multiple processes for continuous production, eliminating the need for manual transfer of vials between processes and preventing any impact on the cleanliness of the vials. This ensures that the produced vials meet the relevant cleanliness requirements. At the same time, the continuous production of multiple processes avoids wasted time and increases work efficiency.
[0062] like Figure 7-9 As shown, a production method for a vial production line includes the following steps:
[0063] Step S1: The vial is inspected by the light inspection component 1;
[0064] Step S1, the vial is inspected by the light inspection component 1, including:
[0065] Step S11: The vial removal robot 40 removes the vials produced by the vial production device 40 and places them on the first vial conveyor belt 11. The vials are transported to the first conveyor gripper 12 via the first vial conveyor belt 11. The first conveyor gripper 12 grips four vials at a time and transports them to the light inspection device 13 via the transverse moving track 19.
[0066] In step S12, after the light inspection is completed, the second conveyor chuck 14 transports the vials at the light inspection device 13 onto the second vial conveyor belt 15, and then transports the vials to the waiting area 16 via the second vial conveyor belt 15. A rejection buffer channel is also provided next to the second vial conveyor belt 15; vials that fail the light inspection will be transported by the second conveyor chuck 14 to the rejection buffer channel for buffering.
[0067] Step S2: The vial is placed into the nest box through the infeeder assembly 2;
[0068] Step S2, the vial is placed into the nest box through the infeeder assembly 2;
[0069] In step S21, the empty nest box conveyor belt 26 transports an empty nest box from the nest box stacking rack 27 to the third transfer robot 28. The third transfer robot 28 picks up and moves the empty nest box onto the nest box placement rack 210, and then transports the empty nest box to the second transfer robot 23 via the back-and-forth conveyor belt 29.
[0070] In step S22, the second transfer robot 23 picks up and transports the empty nest box to the nest box placement area 22 on the first workbench 21.
[0071] In step S23, the nest board conveyor belt 24 transports a nest board from the nest board stacking rack 25 to the second transfer robot 23, and the second transfer robot 23 picks up and transports the nest board into the nest box.
[0072] In step S24, the first robotic arm 17 moves through the gripper 18 to transport the vial at location 16 to the nesting board inside the nesting box on the nesting box placement area 22 on the first workbench 21, and places them in sequence.
[0073] In step S25, after one layer of nesting boards is filled, the nesting board conveyor belt 24 transports another nesting board from the nesting board stacking rack 25 to the second transfer robot 23. The second transfer robot 23 then picks up and transports the nesting board into the nesting box. Multiple layers of nesting boards can be placed in one nesting box.
[0074] In step S26, after the nest boxes are full, the reciprocating conveyor belt 29 transports the nest box placement rack 210 to the second transfer robot 23. The second transfer robot 23 moves the nest boxes filled with vials into the nest box placement rack 210. Then, the reciprocating conveyor belt 29 transports the nest box placement rack 210 to the third transfer robot 28. The third transfer robot 28 moves the nest boxes filled with vials onto the nest box conveyor belt 32.
[0075] Step S27: Repeat steps S21-S26 to continue placing the vial into the new nest box.
[0076] Step S3: The vial placed in the nest box is sealed by the sealing component 3.
[0077] Step S3, the vial placed in the nest box is sealed by the sealing component 3;
[0078] In step S31, the nest box filled with vials moves forward via the nest box conveyor belt 32. When it passes the lifting and rotating device 38, if the nest box is in the correct orientation, the lifting and rotating device 38 does not move. If the nest box is in the wrong orientation, the lifting and rotating device 38 lifts and rotates the nest box to adjust its orientation and then continues to place it on the nest box conveyor belt 32 to move forward.
[0079] In step S32, when the nest box reaches the cover material transfer robot 33, a blocking cylinder 39 rises to stop the nest box from moving. The cover material transfer robot 33 picks up a cover material from the cover material stacking rack 34 and places it in the nest box. Then, the blocking cylinder 39 lowers the nest box and continues to move with the nest box conveyor belt 32.
[0080] In step S33, when the nest box reaches the sealing paper transfer robot 35, another blocking cylinder 39 is raised to block the movement of the nest box. The sealing paper transfer robot 35 picks up a sealing paper from the sealing paper stacking rack 36 and places it in the nest box. Then, the blocking cylinder 39 lowers the nest box and continues to move with the nest box conveyor belt 32.
[0081] In step S34, when the nest box reaches the heat sealing device 37, a blocking cylinder 39 rises to stop the movement of the nest box. The heat sealing device 37 has a lifting cylinder that lifts the nest box. Then the heat sealing device 37 heat seals the sealing paper to the nest box. After completion, the lifting cylinder lowers the nest box and continues to be transported to the finished product placement area via the nest box conveyor belt 32.
