Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the field of candy bottling, and in particular to a transfer mechanism for a tablet candy bottling production line. Background Art

[0002] Tablet candy is a candy that is made by mixing sugar, fillers, binders, lubricants, sweeteners, flavors, and pigments and then pressing them into shape. After the tablet candy is pressed into shape, it is necessary to bottle the tablet candy into a candy container for easy transportation and sales.

[0003] In the prior art, the bottling of compressed candies is generally performed by a bottling device. The bottling device conveys candy containers through a container conveyor belt, and then bottles the candy containers from top to bottom through a candy filling nozzle. For details, please refer to the utility model patent with announcement number CN 213566755 U, entitled A Candy Canning Assembly Machine.

[0004] With regard to the above-mentioned related technologies, for compressed candies with complex shapes, such as compressed candies with cartoon patterns, when they are bottled, large gaps are likely to appear between the compressed candies in the candy container, and the bottle density is poor. Therefore, compared with compressed candies with more conventional shapes of the same weight, such as square, round or oval compressed candies, compressed candies with complex shapes often require larger candy containers for loading, which increases the production cost of the candy containers. Summary of the invention

[0005] In order to improve the bottling density of special-shaped compressed candies, the present application provides a transfer mechanism for a compressed candy bottling production line.

[0006] The present application provides a tablet candy bottling production line transfer mechanism adopts the following technical solution: A conveying mechanism for a tablet candy bottling production line comprises a frame, a candy filling nozzle, a container conveying assembly and a container oscillating assembly, wherein the candy filling nozzle, the container oscillating assembly and the container conveying assembly are all arranged on the frame, the candy filling nozzle is used to fill a candy container from top to bottom, the candy filling nozzle is provided with a plurality of candy filling nozzles, the plurality of candy filling nozzles are distributed in a horizontal direction, and the container conveying assembly is used to convey the container oscillating assembly in a horizontal direction; The container oscillating assembly comprises a container oscillating member and a container fixing member, wherein the container oscillating member is used to drive the container fixing member to move in a vertical direction, and the container fixing member is used to fix the candy container.

[0007] By adopting the above technical solution, several candy filling nozzles fill the candy container in batches in sequence until the weight of the compressed candy in the candy container meets the standard. When the candy filling nozzle for filling is replaced, the container oscillating member drives the container fixing member to move in the vertical direction, so that the candy container fixed to the container fixing member moves in the vertical direction, and then the compressed candy in the candy container is vibrated and dispersed, so that the compressed candy is redistributed and fills the gap. After the vibration and dispersion is completed, the subsequent remaining candy filling nozzles continue to fill, thereby filling and vibrating in batches, thereby reducing the gap between the compressed candies and improving the bottle density of the special-shaped compressed candies.

When the candy container is rotated, the compressed candies that have just been filled and accumulated inside the candy container and close to the axis of the bottle mouth are dispersed to the edge of the candy container under the action of centrifugal force, so that the compressed candies are evenly dispersed inside the candy container.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0037] The following is combined with Figure 1-8 This application is described in further detail.

[0038] The present application embodiment discloses a conveying mechanism for a tablet candy bottling production line. Figure 1 The transfer mechanism of the tablet candy bottling production line includes a frame, a candy filling nozzle 1, a container oscillating component 2 and a container conveying component 3.

[0039] Reference Figure 1 The candy filling nozzle 1 is used to fill the candy container from top to bottom. There are two candy filling nozzles 1, and the two candy filling nozzles 1 are distributed in a horizontal direction, so that the candy container can be filled in sequence through the two candy filling nozzles 1.

[0040] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 3The container oscillating assembly 2 includes a container oscillating member and a container fixing member. The container oscillating member includes a lifting cylinder 21, a lifting column 22 and an elastic reset member 23. The lifting cylinder 21 is fixedly connected with a slider, and the slider slides in the horizontal direction to fit with the frame through a slide rail. A top slide 201 and a bottom slide 202 are provided inside the lifting cylinder 21. The top slide 201 is located at the top of the bottom slide 202, and the cross section of the top slide 201 is circular. The cross section of the lifting column 22 is circular, and the lifting column 22 slides in the vertical direction to fit with the top slide 201. The elastic reset member 23 is located at the bottom of the lifting column 22. The type of the elastic reset member 23 is a spring, and the two ends of the elastic reset member 23 are respectively fixedly connected to the lifting column 22 and the inner wall of the bottom slide 202, so that the lifting column 22 can be elastically retracted downward into the top slide 201 after extending upward from the top slide 201.

[0041] Reference Figure 3 and Figure 4 The inner wall of the top slide 201 is provided with four spiral guide grooves 203, which are coaxially arranged with the top slide 201 and extend in the vertical direction. Figure 5 Four rotating protrusions 221 are fixedly provided on the outer circumference of the lifting column 22, and the four rotating protrusions 221 are respectively slidably matched with each spiral guide groove 203, so that when the lifting cylinder 21 slides and matches with the top slide groove 201 in the vertical direction, it rotates coaxially around the axis of the top slide groove 201 synchronously.

[0042] Reference Figure 3 The bottom of the lifting column 22 is provided with a lifting follower, which includes a lifting slide bar 24, a lifting rotating frame 25 and a lifting wheel 26. The top of the lifting slide bar 24 is rotatably matched with the lifting column 22, and the bottom of the lifting slide bar 24 is penetrated by a limiting plane 241 and slidably matched with the bottom slide groove 202, so that the lifting column 22 is driven to move in the vertical direction through the lifting slide bar 24, and the lifting column 22 is not easy to drive the lifting slide bar 24 to shake when rotating. The lifting rotating frame 25 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the lifting slide bar 24, and the lifting wheel 26 is rotatably matched with the lifting rotating frame 25, so that the lifting slide bar 24 is driven to move in the vertical direction through the lifting wheel 26, and the wear of the lifting follower is reduced.

[0043] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 6, the frame is provided with a lifting active member 4 and an adjusting driving member 5, and the lifting active member 4 and the adjusting driving member 5 are both located between two adjacent candy filling nozzles 1. The lifting active member 4 is rotatably matched with the frame, and the lifting active member 4 is provided with a lifting inclined surface 401, so that the lifting slide bar 24 moves in the vertical direction by making the lifting wheel 26 abut against the lifting inclined surface 401 and move along the lifting inclined surface 401. Specifically in the embodiment of the present application, the type of the lifting active member 4 is a cam, and the lifting inclined surface 401 is the outer peripheral surface of the lifting active member 4. The type of the adjusting driving member 5 is a servo motor, the adjusting driving member 5 is fixedly installed on the frame, and the lifting active member 4 is coaxially fixedly connected to the output shaft of the adjusting driving member 5, so that the lifting active member 4 is driven to rotate by the lifting active member 4, and then the inclination angle of the lifting inclined surface 401 is adjusted, thereby adjusting the acceleration of the lifting slide bar 24 when it moves in the vertical direction.

[0044] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 7 The container fixing part is located at the top of the lifting column 22. The container fixing part includes a fixed base 27 and a container abutment block 28. The fixed base 27 is provided with a container slot, and the container slot is used to accommodate the candy container. There are two container abutment blocks 28, and the two container abutment blocks 28 are arranged opposite to each other. One side of the container abutment block 28 is elastically connected to the fixed base 27 by a spring (not shown in the figure), and the other side of the container abutment block 28 is located in the container slot, so that the candy container can be inserted into the container slot, and then the two container abutment blocks 28 are tightly fitted to the outer peripheral surface of the candy container, thereby fixing the candy container to the container fixing part.

[0045] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 8 The container conveying component 3 is a conveyor belt, and the synchronous belt of the container conveying component 3 is fixedly connected to the lifting cylinder 21 to drive the container oscillating component 2 to move in the horizontal direction.

[0046] The implementation principle of the transfer mechanism of the tablet candy bottling production line of the present application embodiment is as follows: Figure 8 The synchronous belt of the container conveying assembly 3 conveys the container fixing part at the bottom of the candy filling nozzle 1 in the horizontal direction. After the container fixing part moves to the bottom of the candy filling nozzle 1, when the candy filling nozzle 1 is aligned with the bottle mouth of the candy container, the candy filling nozzle 1 partially fills the candy container from top to bottom.

[0047] After the candy container is partially filled, the synchronous belt of the container conveying assembly 3 continues to convey the candy filling bottle. When the lifting wheel 26 is pressed against and moves along the lifting inclined surface 401 of the lifting active member 4, the lifting slide bar 24 overcomes the elastic force of the elastic reset member 23 to make the lifting column 22 move upward and rotate, thereby making the candy container located on the top of the lifting column 22 vibrate in the vertical direction and the rotation direction, so that the compressed candy is initially shaken and dispersed in the candy container.

[0048] After the lifting wheel 26 is separated from the lifting active member 4 along the lifting inclined surface 401, the elastic reset member 23 retracts by elastic force, driving the lifting column 22 to move downward and rotate, thereby causing the candy container to oscillate more greatly in the vertical direction and the rotation direction again, so that the compressed candy is dispersed by secondary oscillation in the candy container.

[0049] Subsequently, the candy container is supplementarily filled through the subsequent candy filling nozzle 1, and then the candy container is filled and shaken in batches, thereby reducing the gaps between the compressed candies and improving the bottle density of the special-shaped compressed candies.

[0050] The above are all preferred embodiments of the present application, and the protection scope of the present application is not limited thereto. Therefore, any equivalent changes made according to the structure, shape, and principle of the present application should be included in the protection scope of the present application.
