Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of bottle separation, and in particular to equipment for separating special-shaped bottles. Background Art

[0002] Bottles are containers with small mouths, narrow necks and large bellies. They are mostly made of plastic, porcelain or glass and are often used to hold liquid substances (such as water, oil, etc.). Bottled products are easy to store and place, so some powdered products or small granular products (such as tablets and candies) are gradually being packaged in bottles. Bottles are becoming more and more widely used.

[0003] According to different usage environments and different usage habits, in order to better gain the favor of consumers, people have different demands on the shape of bottles. For example, some bottles have handles, some do not, some have handles on the side, some have handles on the top, etc. A large number of special-shaped bottles have appeared, resulting in more and more types of bottle shapes. The increase in bottle types means the diversification of bottle production equipment, which invisibly increases the types and quantity of equipment and increases production costs.

[0004] During the production and processing of bottles, as well as when bottles are used to package corresponding products, bottles of different shapes have different positions of bottle mouths and centers of gravity, so they are often closely arranged during transportation on conveyor belts to avoid being affected by movement inertia and causing the bottles to tilt. However, in different production and processing links, it is sometimes necessary to leave a certain gap between bottled products. In this case, the bottles are still at risk of tipping over due to inertia. At the same time, combined with changes in market consumption peaks and valleys, the production cycles of bottles of different shapes are discontinuous, and equipment will have idle periods, resulting in low overall utilization of various equipment. Therefore, it is necessary to optimize and improve the existing technology. Summary of the invention

[0069] Embodiment 1, refer to Figure 1~Figure 4 , which is the first embodiment of the present invention, provides a device for separating special-shaped bottles.

[0070] Irregular-shaped bottle separation equipment, including:

[0071] Rack 1;

[0072] A conveyor belt 3 is arranged for circular transportation relative to the frame 1;

[0073] A plurality of trays 2 are distributed on the conveyor belt 3 at intervals, and each tray has a containing chamber 21 . The containing chamber 21 is used to contain bottles, and the trays 2 are driven to slide by the circulating transportation of the conveyor belt 3 .

[0074] In this embodiment, the separation equipment specifically includes a frame 1, a tray 2 and a conveyor belt 3; the overall operation process is as follows: the empty bottles are put on the line after inspection and cleaning, and the empty bottles are dried; they are transported, sorted and aligned by the feeding belt for the first time, and at this time, several trays 2 are arranged on the conveyor belt 3 in sequence, and the conveyor belt 3 runs continuously, and the tray 2 is blocked by the intercepting cross bar and stops moving forward; then, a certain number of empty bottles are transferred to the tray 2 through a manipulator in the prior art, and the tray 2 moves forward driven by the conveyor belt 3; after filling and bottle cap sealing operations, bottled products are obtained; the equipment involved in the detection, cleaning, drying, intercepting cross bar, manipulator, filling, bottle cap sealing, etc. of the empty bottles can all be the equipment that can realize this function in the prior art; the conveyor belt 3 is composed of multiple sections as a whole to realize the overall circulation of the tray 2; then the tray 2 continues to move forward with the bottled product to carry out the subsequent operations. During the process, the empty bottles are placed in the containing chamber 21 with the help of the tray 2, so as to prevent the empty bottles from tilting and falling due to the inertia of movement during transportation, thereby achieving effective fixation of the empty bottles, and ensuring their stability and transportation consistency even if the empty bottles are special-shaped bottles.

[0075] At the same time, the conveyor belt 3 is composed of multiple sections. The conveying speeds and spacings of different sections are different. The tray 2 is used to achieve natural isolation between bottles, so that gaps are reserved between adjacent bottles, which facilitates the speed change at the overlap of the conveyor belt 3 and improves the transportation stability of empty bottles.

[0076] Example 2, refer to Figure 1~Figure 3 This is the second embodiment of the present invention. Based on the first embodiment, this embodiment further adds a separation belt 1 41 and a separation belt 2 42.

[0077] A separation belt 41 is arranged for circulation relative to the frame 1 and is located above the tray 2;

[0078] The second separation belt 42 is arranged for circular transportation relative to the frame 1, is located above the tray 2, and is located on one side of the first separation belt 41;

[0079] A clamping space 43 is formed between the separation belt 1 41 and the separation belt 2 42 where they are close to each other. The clamping space 43 is used to clamp the bottle cap of the bottle.

[0080] The circulation and transportation directions of the separation belt 1 41 and the separation belt 2 42 are opposite; when in use, the bottled product after capping moves to the starting end of the separation belt 1 41 and the separation belt 2 42, at which time the bottle mouth position of the bottled product is just aligned with the starting position of the clamping space 43, and with the movement of the conveyor belt 3, the bottle cap enters the clamping space 43, the width of the clamping space 43 is slightly smaller than the diameter of the bottle cap, and the separation belt 1 41 and the separation belt 2 42 are elastic, so the bottle cap is squeezed and clamped by the separation belt 1 41 and the separation belt 2 42, and gradually moves with the separation belt 1 41 and the separation belt 2 42, at which time the horizontal height of the conveyor belt 3 gradually decreases, and the tray 2 gradually descends with the conveyor belt 3, and the bottled product is separated from the tray 2, and the transfer of the bottled product is completed. At this time, the tray 2 follows the conveyor belt 3 for recycling, improving the utilization rate of the equipment; at the same time, the transferred bottled product enters the subsequent inspection, labeling, packaging, warehousing and other processes, completing the entire processing flow of the product. The continuity of the bottled product operation is guaranteed.

[0081] The separation belt 1 41 and the separation belt 2 42 drive the corresponding transmission shaft 91 by means of the built-in power source (not shown in the attached figure) on the frame 1, and then the transmission shaft 91 drives the transmission wheel 92, and the two transmission wheels 92 drive the separation belt 1 41 and the separation belt 2 42 respectively. The separation belt 1 41 and the separation belt 2 42 are each surrounded by a support bar 93, and the support bar 93 is used to support the separation belt 1 41 and the separation belt 2 42, so as to provide a clamping force for the bottle cap for the clamping space 43. Figure 2 and Figure 3 There are simple instructions in it.

[0082] Example 3, refer to Figure 1~Figure 4 , which is the third embodiment of the present invention. On the basis of the first embodiment, this embodiment further adds a fixing unit 5. Specifically, the fixing unit 5 includes a clamp 51, a guide rod 52 and a spring 53.

[0083] The guide rod 52 is slidably arranged in a direction perpendicular to the side wall of the containing chamber 21;

[0084] The clamping member 51 is arranged on the guide rod 52 and is used for squeezing the bottle;

[0085] One end of the spring 1 53 acts on the clamp 51 , and the other end acts on the side wall of the containing chamber 21 , and the force provided is used for the clamp 51 to squeeze the bottle.

[0086] There are a plurality of fixing units 5 , which are spaced apart and distributed in the containing chamber 21 . The fixing units 5 surround the outer ring of the bottle and are in a ring shape as a whole. The upper end of the clamping member 51 has an arc-shaped guide plate 54 .

[0087] When the tray 2 is not in use, the spring 1 53 is in a freely extended state; when the manipulator clamps the empty bottle and enters the tray 2, the bottom of the empty bottle is squeezed and contacted with the arc-shaped guide plate 54 at the upper end of the clamp 51, and with the squeezing of the empty bottle, the arc-shaped guide plate 54 brings the clamp 51 to slide in the direction close to the side wall of the containing chamber 21 until the side wall of the empty bottle is squeezed and contacted with the clamp 51; when the clamp 51 slides in the direction close to the side wall of the containing chamber 21, it squeezes the spring 1 53, and the spring 1 53 is forced to shrink and accumulate elastic force; with the help of the accumulated elastic force of the spring 1 53, the clamp 51 is tightly attached to the side wall of the empty bottle; with the help of the fixing unit 5, the empty bottle is fixed, and filling is carried out while preventing the empty bottle from being skewed, and at the same time, the smooth insertion of the empty bottle is guaranteed with the help of the arc-shaped guide plate 54.

[0088] The elastic change of spring 1 53 allows empty bottles of various specifications to be placed in the containing chamber 21, including various special-shaped bottles; the application range of the tray 2 is improved on the basis of ensuring the transportation stability of the tray 2; at the same time, with the help of the elastic change of spring 1 53, the inertial impact caused by the speed change of the tray 2 and the empty bottles during movement is buffered, which helps to improve the transportation stability.

[0099] Since the shapes of empty bottles are various and there are many kinds of special-shaped bottles, when empty bottles of one shape are processed and replaced with empty bottles of other shapes, the entire production line needs to be stopped, adjusted, and maintained, resulting in low production efficiency and low equipment utilization. When the separation device is used, the clamping space 43 is in a long strip shape as a whole and has two ports, one end located above the conveyor belt and the tray 2 is the starting point, and the other end away from the tray 2 is the end point. The bottled products coming out of the end point enter the subsequent inspection, packaging, warehousing and other processes.

[0100] Driven by the conveyor belt 3 and the tray 2, the special-shaped bottle moves to the starting point of the clamping space. At this time, the movement directions of the slider 1 63, the slider 2 64 and the tray 2 are consistent. Looking at the moving direction of the bottled product, at this time, the slider 1 63 with the clamping piece 1 65 and the connecting piece 1 72 is located in front of the bottled product, and the slider 2 64 with the clamping piece 2 66 and the connecting piece 2 74 is located behind the bottled product. The slider 1 63 and the slider 2 64 are integrally surrounded to form a directional space, and the initial positions of the clamping piece 1 65 and the clamping piece 2 66 are respectively located at the two diagonals of the directional space.

[0101] Then, the built-in power source on the frame 1 drives the screw rod 1 71 and the screw rod 2 73 to start rotating at the same time, the screw rod 1 71 drives the connecting piece 1 72 to start sliding, and the connecting piece 1 72 drives the two swinging pieces 1 651 and the two springs 2 67 to slide in the same direction. There is an angle A between the two swinging pieces 1 651, and the maximum angle A is 120°±10°. When the angle A is at the maximum, the two swinging pieces 1 651 start to rotate in the same direction; the two swinging pieces 1 651 are respectively A1 and B1, and A1 is initially in contact with the bottled product. The moving directions are perpendicular to each other, B1 is located on the side of A1 close to the bottle cap, and the angle A between A1 and B1 is at the maximum state; with the movement of the swing member 651, B1 is squeezed into contact with the bottle cap, and under the squeezing action of the bottle cap, B1 rotates in the direction away from the bottle cap, and A1 rotates in the direction close to the bottle cap driven by B1, until both A1 and B1 are squeezed into contact with the bottle cap, at which time the screw rod 71 stops rotating; and a slot is provided on the swing member 651, which is just clamped at the lower end of the bottle cap.

[0102] When each swinging member 651 rotates, it will drive the corresponding spring 2 67 to deform. When A1 swings close to the bottle cap, the corresponding first spring 2 67 stretches and accumulates elastic force; when B1 swings away from the bottle cap, the corresponding second spring 2 67 shortens and accumulates elastic force.

[0103] When the screw rod 2 73 rotates, it drives the connecting piece 2 74 to slide on the slider 2 64. The connecting piece 2 74 drives the two swinging pieces 2 661 and the two springs 3 68 to slide in the same direction. The sliding directions of the connecting piece 2 74 and the connecting piece 1 72 are opposite. The two swinging pieces 2 661 are A2 and B2 respectively. The initial state of A2 is parallel to A1, and the initial state of B2 is parallel to B1. There is an angle B between the two swinging pieces 2 661. The maximum angle B is 120°±10°. When the angle B is at the maximum, the two swinging pieces 2 661 start to rotate in the same direction. B2 is squeezed and contacted with the bottle cap. B2 rotates in the direction away from the bottle cap, and when the angle B is at the maximum, B2 will drive A2 to rotate at the same time, and A2 gradually approaches the bottle cap; until A2 and B2 are squeezed and contacted with the bottle cap, at this time, the screw 2 73 stops rotating; and A2 is located below A1, and B2 is located below B1; with the help of the swing member 2 661, the swing member 1 651 is supported, and at the same time, the two swing members 2 661 and the two swing members 1 651 as a whole complete the clamping and fixing of the bottle cap in a diamond state. As the tray 2 continues to move forward, the bottled product is separated from the tray 2, completing the transfer of the bottled product and the recycling of the tray 2.

[0104] When each swinging member 2 661 rotates, it will drive the corresponding spring 3 68 to deform. When A2 swings close to the bottle cap, the corresponding first spring 3 68 stretches and accumulates elastic force; when B2 swings away from the bottle cap, the corresponding second spring 3 68 shortens and accumulates elastic force.

[0105] When the bottled product moves along the guide frame 1 61 to the next process position, there is another corresponding conveyor belt 3 under the bottled product to receive the bottled product; the guide frame 1 61 and the guide frame 2 62 are respectively in an oblong shape as a whole. When approaching the arc-shaped end turning position of the guide frame 1 61 and the guide frame 2 62, the screw rod 1 71 and the screw rod 2 73 rotate in the opposite direction respectively, the swing member 1 651 and the swing member 2 661 separate from the bottle cap, the first spring 2 67 shortens and releases the accumulated elastic force, the second spring 2 67 extends and releases the accumulated elastic force, and A1 and B1 return to their initial state; the first spring 3 68 shortens and releases the accumulated elastic force, the second spring 3 68 extends and releases the accumulated elastic force, and A2 and B2 return to their initial state; as the slider 1 63 changes direction along the arc-shaped end of the guide frame 1 61, and the slider 2 64 changes direction along the arc-shaped end of the guide frame 2 62, the bottled product is released from fixation and the transfer is completed. The slider 1 63 and the slider 2 64 are put into circulation again, thereby reducing the equipment cost.

[0106] In actual use, the mouths of special-shaped bottles vary in size. When the bottle caps are squeezed and contacted with A1 and B1, the bottle caps will squeeze the corresponding triggering member 84, and the triggering member 84 will slide in the direction away from the bottle cap and gradually approach the adjusting connecting rod 83, and come into squeeze contact with the adjusting connecting rod 83; with the help of the squeezing of the bottle cap, the triggering member 84 pushes the adjusting connecting rod 83 to rotate in the direction away from the bottle cap, and with the help of the built-in angle detector, the rotation angle of the adjusting connecting rod 83 can be detected and converted into a corresponding electrical signal and transmitted to the built-in power source on the slider 1 63 and the built-in power source on the slider 2 64. The built-in power source on the slider 1 63 outputs power according to the received electrical signal to push the adjusting member 1 81 to slide a certain distance and then stop sliding, and the built-in power source on the slider 2 64 outputs power according to the received electrical signal to push the adjusting member 1 81 to slide a certain distance and then stop sliding. After sliding for a distance, it stops sliding; the adjusting member 1 81 squeezes the two swing members 1 651 closer to each other, and the adjusting member 2 squeezes the two swing members 2 661 closer to each other, until the two swing members 1 651 and the two swing members 2 661 are all squeezed and contacted with the bottle cap, and the bottled product is clamped and fixed at this time; at the same time, when the two swing members 2 661 are close to each other, the swing member 2 661 is squeezed and contacted with the locking member 86 on the swing member 1 651, and the locking member 86 is rotated unidirectionally with the help of the ratchet structure in the prior art; the two swing members 2 661 are prevented from moving away from each other, resulting in the bottle cap being clamped loosely and the bottled product falling off; with the help of the adjusting unit 8, the separation unit 6 can clamp and fix different types of bottled products, expand the application range of the separation equipment, reduce the types of equipment, and improve the overall utilization rate of the equipment.

[0107] When the trigger member 84 slides in the direction away from the bottle cap, the pulling spring four 85 stretches and accumulates elastic force. When the bottled product is separated from the tray 2 and transferred to another corresponding conveyor belt 3 in the subsequent sequence, as the screw rod 1 71 and the screw rod 2 73 rotate in the opposite direction, the clamping and fixation of the bottled product is released, and the spring four 85 shortens to release the accumulated elastic force and returns to the initial state; waiting to be put into the next clamping and transfer again.
