Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application belongs to the field of core packaging, and specifically relates to a core packaging device and method. Background Art

[0002] In the fields of geological exploration and oil extraction, the study of cores is of great significance. In order to better preserve the original state of the cores and the various geological information contained in them, the cores need to be effectively sealed. Among the many sealing methods, plastic film sealing is a relatively economical and practical way.

[0003] Normally, plastic film sealing is to first place the core on a suitable support device, and then use a film winding device to gradually wrap the plastic film around the outer wall of the core. However, when the core is taken out of the formation, the fractures at both ends are often not flat and smooth, but accompanied by sharp corners of fracture. These sharp corners will have a destructive effect on the film when wrapped with plastic film. When the film is wrapped around the sharp corners, due to the protruding and sharp characteristics of the corners, concentrated stress will be generated during and after the wrapping process, and the plastic film will be easily punctured. Once the film is punctured, external air, moisture and other substances can easily invade the core, causing changes in the physical and chemical properties of the core, affecting its subsequent analysis and research results. Moreover, after the film is damaged, the substances inside the core may also leak out, causing pollution and information loss.

[0004] Based on the above analysis, how to solve the damage of the sharp corners at both ends of the core to the plastic film and achieve effective sealing of the core has become a key issue that needs to be urgently solved in the current field of core packaging technology.

[0021] Furthermore, the rotary movement mechanism includes a rotary linear motor, a rotary push plate, a third track, and a rotary motor. The third track is parallel to and corresponding to the second track. The bottom of the third track is connected to the rotary motor. The rotary linear motor is arranged on one side of the third track. The rotary push plate is connected to the driving end of the rotary linear motor. The rotary linear motor can be telescopically moved along the third track. When the core completely enters the third track, the rotary motor can drive the third track to rotate 180 degrees.

[0022] Furthermore, it also includes an infrared laser sensor, which is connected to the rotary push plate and is used to detect the distance between the core and the rotary push plate to determine whether the core has completely entered the third track.

[0023] Furthermore, it also includes a lifting motor, and the bottom of the rotary motor is connected to the lifting motor. When the core enters the third track, the height of the third track is lower than the height of the second track. When one end of the core is about to leave the third track and enter the second track, the height of the third track is higher than the height of the second track. After one end of the core enters the second track, the height of the third track returns to the starting height which is lower than the height of the second track.

[0024] On the other hand, a core packaging method is also provided, which uses the above core packaging equipment to perform core packaging.

[0025] Furthermore, the core packaging method comprises the following steps:

[0026] Placing a core on the first track and the second track, with one end of the core overlapping the first track and the other end overlapping the second track, and the core is located near the winding starting position of the film winding mechanism, which is located in the winding interval and adjacent to the second track;

[0027] Place one end of the plastic film close to the winding starting position of the core, start the film winding mechanism, and make it wind the plastic film around the outer wall of the core at a stable speed and force. At the same time, the pushing mechanism starts the pushing action, cooperating with the rotary moving mechanism, and both of them simultaneously support and fix the core and assist the core to move in the direction of the second track, from one end of the core to the other end, and the core at both ends is not wound temporarily;

[0028] When the core is wrapped with the film, the pushing mechanism and the rotary moving mechanism move the core toward the first track, so that it returns to the vicinity of the initial position and resets;

[0029] The lifting mechanism is controlled to start, and the lifting mechanism uses the end on the second track as the rotation point to lift the end of the core close to the first track to a predetermined angle, so that sufficient space is formed between the core and the first track;

[0030] The pushing mechanism inserts the pre-prepared end cap through the gap formed after lifting and connects it to the core, and the end cap is pressed onto the tail end of the film after the core is wrapped with the film;

[0031] The pushing mechanism pushes the core to the rotary moving mechanism, which first rotates the core 180 degrees and then moves the core to dock with the pushing mechanism. Then, the rotary moving mechanism cooperates with the pushing mechanism to overlap one end of the core on the first track and the other end on the second track.

[0032] The end cap at the other end is plugged into the core through the pushing mechanism to complete the plugging of both ends of the core.

[0033] Compared with the prior art, the core packaging equipment and method provided by the present invention has a film winding mechanism with a starting position located at the winding interval and adjacent to the second track. After one end of the film is manually placed close to the core winding starting position, the film winding mechanism starts to wrap the plastic film around the outer wall of the core. Through its own operating mechanism, it performs film winding operations at a stable speed and strength to ensure that the film can be evenly and tightly wrapped around the surface of the core, providing preliminary packaging for the core. At the beginning of film winding, the pushing mechanism starts the pushing action and cooperates with the rotary moving mechanism. The pushing mechanism and the rotary moving mechanism together support and fix the core and assist the core to move in the direction of the second track, from one end of the core to the other end, while retaining the core at both ends without winding, and only winding the inner part of the two ends. When the core is wrapped with the film, the pushing mechanism and the rotary moving mechanism move the core toward the first track. After resetting, the lifting mechanism lifts the core to a predetermined height, so that a gap is formed between it and the first track. The pushing mechanism inserts the pre-prepared end cap through the gap and plugs it into the core. At this time, the end cap is crimped to the tail end of the film after the core is wrapped with the film, so as to squeeze and fix the tail end of the film. The lifting mechanism is arranged below the winding interval. When the core is wrapped with the film and the end cap is ready to be plugged into the core, the lifting mechanism is started. It uses the end on the second track as the rotation point, and lifts the end of the core close to the first track to a predetermined angle, so that there is enough space between the core and the first track, so that the pushing mechanism can smoothly push the end cap to the core and complete the plugging operation. In the initial stage of film winding, the rotary moving mechanism and the pushing mechanism act simultaneously, and both abut against the two ends of the core at the same time to hold the core in place. During the film winding process, the rotary moving mechanism can not only fix the position of the core, but also move the core in coordination with the pushing mechanism, so that the film is evenly wound from one end of the core to the other end. When the pushing mechanism pushes the core over, the rotary moving mechanism first rotates the core 180 degrees, then moves the core to dock with the pushing mechanism, and then cooperates with the pushing mechanism to overlap one end of the core to the first track and the other end to the second track, completing the adjustment of the core's posture and preparing for the installation of the end cap at the other end of the core. By combining the rotation and movement functions, it can achieve accurate position and posture adjustment of the core in different operation stages, ensuring the smooth progress of the entire packaging process. Through the setting of the above-mentioned end caps and films, the damage to the plastic film by the sharp corners of the core is successfully avoided, ensuring that the film can be completely and tightly wrapped around the outer wall of the core, achieving effective sealing and sealing of the core, greatly reducing the risk of external air, moisture and other substances invading the interior of the core, maintaining the stability of the physical and chemical properties of the core, and facilitating subsequent analysis and research.

[0050] A specific embodiment of the present invention, as Figures 1 to 6 As shown, a core packaging device is disclosed, comprising:

[0051] A first track 10 and a second track 11 are arranged linearly, wherein the first track 10 and the second track 11 have a winding interval, and one end of the core can be overlapped on the first track 10, and the other end opposite to the core can be overlapped on the second track 11;

[0052] A film winding mechanism 30 is arranged outside the second track 11, and the winding starting position of the film winding mechanism 30 is located at the winding interval and adjacent to the second track 11. The film winding mechanism 30 is used to wind the plastic film onto the outer wall of the core;

[0053] A pushing mechanism 20 is arranged on the first track 10, and is used to move the end cap 13 to the end of the core and sleeve it onto the core. The end cap 13 can be pressed onto the tail end of the film after the core is wrapped with the film. The tail end of the film is also located in the winding interval and is adjacent to the first track 10;

[0054] The lifting mechanism 40 is arranged below the winding interval and is configured to lift the end of the core close to the first track 10 to a predetermined angle with the end on the second track 11 as the rotation point after the core is wrapped with the film, and the pushing mechanism 20 is in line with the lifted core;

[0055] The rotary moving mechanism 50 is arranged on one side of the second track 11, and is configured to rotate the core pushed by the pushing mechanism 20 by 180 degrees, move the core to dock with the pushing mechanism 20, and cooperate with the pushing mechanism 20 to simultaneously support both ends of the core and move the core synchronously.

[0056] In this embodiment, the winding starting position of the film winding mechanism 30 is located at the winding interval and adjacent to the second track 11. After one end of the film is manually placed close to the core winding starting position, the film winding mechanism 30 is started and begins to wrap the plastic film around the outer wall of the core. Through its own operating mechanism, it performs film winding operations at a stable speed and force to ensure that the film can be evenly and tightly wrapped around the surface of the core, providing a preliminary package for the core. At the beginning of film winding, the pushing mechanism 20 starts the pushing action and cooperates with the rotary moving mechanism 50. The pushing mechanism 20 and the rotary moving mechanism 50 together support and fix the core and assist the core to move toward the second track 11, from one end of the core to the other end, while keeping the core at both ends without winding, and only winding the inner part of the two ends. When the core is wrapped with the film, the pushing mechanism 20 and the rotary moving mechanism 50 move the core toward the first track 10. After resetting, the lifting mechanism 40 lifts the core to a predetermined height, so that a gap is formed between the core and the first track 10, and the pushing mechanism 20 inserts the pre-prepared end cap 13 through the gap and plugs it into the core. At this time, the end cap 13 is crimped to the tail end of the film after the core is wrapped with the film, so as to squeeze and fix the tail end of the film. The lifting mechanism 40 is arranged below the winding interval. When the core is wrapped with the film and the end cap 13 is ready to be plugged into the core, the lifting mechanism 40 is started. It uses the end on the second track 11 as the rotation point, and lifts the end of the core close to the first track 10 to a predetermined angle, so that there is enough space between the core and the first track 10, so that the pushing mechanism 20 can smoothly push the end cap 13 to the core and complete the plug-in operation. In the initial stage of film winding, the rotary moving mechanism 50 and the pushing mechanism 20 act simultaneously, and both abut against the two ends of the core at the same time to hold the core in place. During the film winding process, the rotary moving mechanism 50 can not only fix the core position, but also move the core in coordination with the pushing mechanism 20, so that the film is evenly wound from one end of the core to the other end. When the pushing mechanism 20 pushes the core over, the rotary moving mechanism 50 first rotates the core 180 degrees, then moves the core to dock with the pushing mechanism 20, and then cooperates with the pushing mechanism 20 to overlap one end of the core on the first track 10 and the other end on the second track 11, completing the adjustment of the core posture and preparing for the installation of the end cap 13 at the other end of the core. By combining the rotation and movement functions, it realizes the accurate position and posture adjustment of the core in different operation stages, ensuring the smooth progress of the entire packaging process.

[0057] That is to say, the overall working process is as follows: first, one end of the film is manually placed close to the starting position of the core winding, the film winding mechanism 30 is started to start winding the film, and at the same time the pushing mechanism 20 starts pushing, and the rotary moving mechanism 50 cooperates with the pushing mechanism 20 to simultaneously abut against both ends of the core and hold it fixed, and the two move the core in coordination so that the film is evenly wound from one end of the core to the other end, and after the winding of the tail end of the core is completed, the pushing mechanism 20 and the rotary moving mechanism 50 are both reset. Then, the end cap 13 is connected to the pushing mechanism 20, and the lifting mechanism 40 is controlled to lift the core so that the core is slightly lifted and has a gap with the first track 10, and the pushing mechanism 20 pushes the end cap 13 through the gap and plugs it into the core, and the end cap 13 squeezes and fixes the film at the tail end of the core. Afterwards, when the pushing mechanism 20 pushes the core over, the rotary moving mechanism 50 first rotates the core 180 degrees, then moves the core to dock with the pushing mechanism 20, and then cooperates with the pushing mechanism 20 to overlap one end of the core on the first track 10 and the other end on the second track 11. At this time, the core posture adjustment is completed, and the end cap 13 is prepared for the other end cap 13. Finally, the end cap 13 is plugged into the core through the pushing mechanism 20 to complete the plugging of the two ends and the sealing of the core.

[0058] The setting of the end cap 13 can squeeze and fix the tail end of the film. During the core packaging process, after the plastic film is wrapped, the tail end is usually not bound, and the fixation of the tail end is crucial. Through the squeezing effect of the end cap 13, the tail end of the film fits tightly to the core and is not easy to loosen or warp. This fixing method effectively avoids the situation where the film is accidentally pulled or scratched due to the instability of the tail end of the film during subsequent operations or transportation. The integrity and sealing of the film on the entire core surface are ensured, and the protective effect on the core is further enhanced, preventing external air, moisture and other substances from invading the core from the tail end of the film, maintaining the stability of the physical and chemical properties of the core, and facilitating the smooth progress of subsequent analysis and research work.

[0059] The end cap 13 plays a key packaging role in addressing the problem of sharp corners at the fractures at both ends of the core. The end cap 13 can be tightly mounted on the end of the core, completely encapsulating the sharp corner. In this way, not only is the sharp corner directly exposed to the outside to avoid possible accidental damage to personnel or other equipment, but more importantly, it effectively prevents the sharp corners from causing secondary damage to the film during daily storage or transportation. Even when slightly collided or squeezed from the outside, the end cap 13 can withstand most of the force, thereby protecting the internal film and core from damage. At the same time, the encapsulation of the end cap 13 allows the end of the core to form a relatively closed space, further reducing the erosion of the end of the core by external environmental factors, extending the shelf life of the core, and providing reliable protection for the long-term storage and research of the core.

[0060] In some embodiments, the film winding mechanism 30 includes:

[0061] A plurality of winding motors 301, wherein the rotating ends of the winding motors 301 are connected to rollers 303;

[0062] A rotating ring 302, wherein a side wall of the rotating ring 302 is provided with an annular groove, a plurality of the winding motors 301 are arranged around the outer side of the rotating ring 302, and the rollers 303 are in rolling and frictional connection with the annular groove, and the plurality of the rollers 303 limit the rotating ring 302;

[0063] The winding support 304 is connected to the end wall of the rotating ring 302 , and a film roll is rollingly connected to the winding support 304 .

[0064] The rotating ends of the winding motors 301 are connected to rollers 303, which are connected to the annular grooves provided on the side walls of the rotating ring 302 by rolling friction, and the rotating ring 302 is limited by the rollers 303. The end wall of the rotating ring 302 is connected to the winding bracket 304, and the film roll is connected to the winding bracket 304 by rolling. When the winding motor 301 is started, its rotating end drives the rollers 303 to rotate, and due to the rolling friction between the rollers 303 and the annular grooves of the rotating ring 302, the rotating ring 302 is driven to rotate, and then the winding bracket 304 is driven to rotate, so as to realize the unwinding of the film roll and the winding operation of the film on the core.

[0065] The film can be stably and evenly wound by the cooperation of multiple winding motors 301 and rotating rings 302. The limiting effect of multiple rollers 303 on the rotating rings 302 ensures the smooth rotation of the rotating rings 302, so that the film will not shake or deviate during the winding process. At the same time, such a setting can also prevent it from interfering with the core and the first track 10 and the second track 11.

[0066] In some embodiments, the pushing mechanism 20 includes a pushing motor 201 and a pushing chuck 202 . The pushing chuck 202 has a clamping groove, and the clamping groove corresponds to the shape of the end cover 13 .

[0067] The push motor 201 pushes the push chuck 202 to move, so that the clamping groove can accurately clamp the end cover 13, and push the end cover 13 to one end of the core to achieve the plugging of the end cover 13 and the core. In this embodiment, the clamping force between the clamping groove and the end cover 13 is smaller than the clamping force of the end cover 13 plugged into one end of the core, so that after the end cover 13 is connected to the core, it will not fall off as the push motor 201 retracts.

[0068] The inner wall of the end cover 13 is connected with a trumpet-shaped rubber ring, and the tail of the end cover 13 is a hexagonal structure.

[0069] After such arrangement, the rubber ring can more easily connect the core after the film is wrapped, and at the same time, the expansion property is better for some film tail ends with wrinkles.

[0070] It should be noted that a rubber ring is embedded in the inner wall of the push chuck 202, and the push chuck 202 is a box-type structure. After being configured in this way, when the core is supported, the push chuck 202 can slightly support the core, and this end of the core can move in the push chuck 202, so that the moving direction of the push chuck 202 can be slightly deviated from the moving direction of the core, and the push chuck 202 can be adapted to push the core at different angles.

[0071] In some embodiments, the lifting mechanism 40 includes a lifting seat 401, a lifting slide rail 402, a sliding platform 403, a telescopic motor 404, a telescopic gear 405, a telescopic tooth plate 406, a top platform 407, and a guide rod; the lifting slide rail 402 is connected to the lifting seat 401, the sliding platform 403 is slidably connected to the lifting slide rail 402, the telescopic motor 404 is connected to the sliding platform 403, the telescopic gear 405 is connected to the telescopic motor 404, the guide rod is vertically connected to the sliding platform 403, the top platform 407 is slidably connected to the guide rod, the telescopic tooth plate 406 is connected to the top platform 407, the sliding platform 403 is provided with a telescopic groove corresponding to the position of the telescopic tooth plate 406, the telescopic gear 405 is meshed with the telescopic tooth plate 406, and the sliding platform 403 moves along the length direction of the core on the lifting slide rail 402.

[0072] In this embodiment, an opening is provided at the end of the first track 10 , and the opening is used for the top platform 407 to move.

[0073] During operation, the telescopic motor 404 drives the telescopic gear 405 to rotate, and through the meshing action with the telescopic tooth plate 406, the top platform 407 is driven to move up and down along the guide rod. At the same time, the sliding platform 403 can move along the length direction of the core on the lifting rail 402 to adjust the position of the top platform 407 so that it can accurately lift one end of the core. On the other hand, after the top platform 407 lifts the position of the core, when the pushing mechanism 20 moves the end cover 13 to connect with the core, it is limited by the fixed platform, and the cores of different lengths and the tail end position of the film at the end can be detected by setting an infrared sensor, and after the top platform 407 is controlled to move to the appropriate position, the plug-in length of the end cover 13 in the core is controlled. The precise connection of the film is achieved, and on the other hand, the plug-in length of the core of different lengths is kept constant.

[0074] In some embodiments, the rotary movement mechanism 50 includes a rotary linear motor 501, a rotary push plate 502, a third track 12, and a rotary motor 503. The third track 12 is parallel to and corresponding to the second track 11. The bottom of the third track 12 is connected to the rotary motor 503. The rotary linear motor 501 is arranged on one side of the third track 12. The rotary push plate 502 is connected to the driving end of the rotary linear motor 501. The rotary linear motor 501 can be telescopically moved along the third track 12. When the core completely enters the third track 12, the rotary motor 503 can drive the third track 12 to rotate 180 degrees.

[0075] During operation, the rotary linear motor 501 pushes the rotary push plate 502 to move, and can push the core to move. The rotary motor 503 can drive the third track 12 to rotate. When the core enters the third track 12, the rotary motor 503 drives the third track 12 to rotate, realizing a 180-degree rotation operation of the core, and then the rotary linear motor 501 pushes the rotary push plate 502 to move, pushing the core out of the third track 12.

[0076] In some embodiments, an infrared laser sensor is further included. The infrared laser sensor is connected to the rotary push plate 502 and is used to detect the distance between the core and the rotary push plate 502 to determine whether the core has completely entered the third track 12.

[0077] The infrared laser sensor is connected to the rotary push plate 502. It detects the distance between the core and the rotary push plate 502 by emitting an infrared laser beam. When the core approaches the rotary push plate 502, the infrared laser beam is reflected back, and the sensor calculates the distance between the core and the rotary push plate 502 based on parameters such as the reflection time. When the distance reaches the preset value, it is judged that the core has completely entered the third track 12, so as to send a signal to the control system to control subsequent rotation operations and other processes. The use of infrared laser sensors realizes accurate detection of the core position. It can accurately judge whether the core has completely entered the third track 12, avoiding rotation operation errors caused by inaccurate core position. It improves the accuracy and reliability of the automatic control of the equipment and reduces the possibility of manual intervention and misoperation. It helps to ensure the smooth progress of the core packaging process and improve the efficiency and quality of the entire packaging work.

[0078] In some embodiments, a lifting motor 504 is also included. The bottom of the rotary motor 503 is connected to the lifting motor 504. When the core enters the third track 12, the height of the third track 12 is lower than the height of the second track 11. When one end of the core is about to leave the third track 12 and enter the second track 11, the height of the third track 12 is higher than the height of the second track 11. After one end of the core enters the second track 11, the height of the third track 12 returns to the starting height which is lower than the height of the second track 11.

[0079] When the core enters the third track 12, the height of the third track 12 is lower than the height of the second track 11, which facilitates the inclined core to enter the third track 12. After one end of the core enters the second track 11, the height of the third track 12 returns to the starting height lower than the height of the second track 11, so that the core is moved out at an inclined angle by the fulcrum formed by the third track 12 and the second track 11, which facilitates the docking of the core with the pushing mechanism 20.

[0080] The present application also provides a core packaging method, comprising the following steps:

[0081] Place the core on the first track 10 and the second track 11, so that one end of the core overlaps the first track 10 and the other end overlaps the second track 11, and the core is located near the winding starting position of the film winding mechanism 30, which is located in the winding interval and adjacent to the second track 11;

[0082] One end of the plastic film is placed close to the winding starting position of the core, and the film winding mechanism 30 is started to wind the plastic film around the outer wall of the core at a stable speed and force. At the same time, the pushing mechanism 20 starts the pushing action and cooperates with the rotary moving mechanism 50. The two simultaneously support and fix the core and assist the core to move toward the second track 11, from one end of the core to the other end, and the core at both ends is not wound temporarily;

[0083] When the core is wrapped with the film, the pushing mechanism 20 and the rotary moving mechanism 50 move the core toward the first track 10 to return to the vicinity of the initial position and reset;

[0084] The lifting mechanism 40 is controlled to start, and the lifting mechanism 40 uses the end on the second track 11 as a rotation point to lift the end of the core close to the first track 10 to a predetermined angle, so that a sufficient space is formed between the core and the first track 10;

[0085] The pushing mechanism 20 inserts the pre-prepared end cap 13 through the gap formed after lifting and connects it to the core, and the end cap 13 is pressed onto the tail end of the film after the core is wrapped with the film;

[0086] The pushing mechanism 20 pushes the core to the rotary moving mechanism 50. The rotary moving mechanism 50 first rotates the core 180 degrees, and then moves the core to dock with the pushing mechanism 20. Then, the rotary moving mechanism 50 cooperates with the pushing mechanism 20 to overlap one end of the core on the first track 10 and the other end on the second track 11.

[0087] The end cap 13 at the other end is plugged into the core by the pushing mechanism 20 to complete the plugging of the two ends of the core.

[0088] The above specific implementation methods further illustrate the purpose, technical solutions and beneficial effects of the present application in detail. It should be understood that the above are only specific implementation methods of the present application and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present application. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present application should be included in the scope of protection of the present application.
