Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of aseptic aluminum can bearing, in particular to an aseptic storage tank bearing structure with good sealing performance and a filling method thereof. Background Art
[0002] In modern industrial production, especially in the field of filling liquids, powders and other materials, materials need to be accurately, efficiently and safely filled into aluminum cans. In order to meet the needs of large-scale production, automated filling equipment is usually used to improve production efficiency and product quality while reducing labor costs.
[0003] However, the existing aluminum can filling equipment has some problems in the following aspects:
[0004] The traditional loading method is usually to push or pull the aluminum cans one by one to the next station. Only one aluminum can can be processed at a time, and after each aluminum can is loaded, there needs to be a certain pause time before the next aluminum can can be loaded.
[0005] For example, a cylinder or a push rod is used to push an aluminum can from one position to another. After an aluminum can is pushed into place, it is necessary to wait for the cylinder to retract or the push rod to reset before the next action can be performed.
[0006] This method can only process a limited number of aluminum cans per unit time and cannot achieve continuous loading, so the overall loading efficiency is low.
[0007] In view of this, this application is hereby filed. Summary of the invention

The output shaft of the servo motor is connected to the feeding shaft, and the feeding shaft is spiral-shaped. The side of the feeding shaft is provided with a notch adapted to the width of the aluminum can.
[0010] Furthermore, the feeding shaft includes a fixed shaft and a movable shaft, the fixed shaft can only be horizontally slidably arranged on the movable shaft, the outer side of the fixed shaft is connected with a movable leaf, the outer side of the movable shaft is connected with a fixed leaf, the movable shaft is rotatably connected with a screw, a threaded hole is opened on the fixed shaft, and the screw is threadedly connected to the threaded hole.

[0012] Furthermore, the fixed leaf is provided with a notch which fits with the outer wall of the fixed shaft, and the movable leaf is welded to the outer wall of the fixed shaft.
[0013] Furthermore, the outer sides of the movable leaves and the fixed leaves are covered with flexible sleeves, and the flexible sleeves are made of rubber.
[0014] Furthermore, the filling rack also includes a discharge tray, the feed tray and the discharge tray have opposite rotation directions, the discharge tray is located on the other side of the filling rack, and a guard plate is provided on the conveyor belt, and a guide plate adapted to the feed tray and the discharge tray is provided on the guard plate.
[0015] Furthermore, a receiving tray is provided below the filling rack, and the receiving tray is located between the feed tray and the discharge tray.
[0016] Furthermore, the filling rack also includes a camera, and there are two cameras, one is located below the filling rack, and the other is located above the conveyor belt and behind the discharge tray. A flip channel is also arranged between the discharge tray and the camera, and the flip channel includes a guide rod and a limit rod. The starting end and the tail end of the guide rod and the limit rod both have a rotation angle of 180°.
[0017] Further, a filling method:
[0018] S1. Start the servo motor. The output shaft of the servo motor drives the feeding shaft to rotate. The spiral structure of the feeding shaft and the notch on the side that matches the width of the aluminum can make the aluminum can fit into the notch.
[0019] If the width of the feeding shaft needs to be adjusted to accommodate aluminum cans of different sizes, the fixed shaft can be horizontally slid on the movable shaft by rotating the screw according to the principle of screw transmission, thereby changing the distance between the movable leaf and the fixed leaf, thereby adjusting the width of the feeding shaft;
[0020] As the feeding shaft continues to rotate, the aluminum cans rise along the spiral trajectory and are transported upward;
[0021] S2. The loaded aluminum cans are transported to the feeding tray, which rotates to receive the aluminum cans and transfer them to the filling rack;

[0025] The camera under the filling rack monitors the filling process to observe the flow of materials, whether there is leakage, and whether the filling amount is accurate;
[0026] S4. When the aluminum cans are filled, the discharging tray starts to rotate and takes the aluminum cans out of the filling rack;
[0027] The direction of rotation of the discharge tray is opposite to that of the feed tray, which makes the material flow in the filling rack smoother and avoids mutual interference;

[0031] The camera on the conveyor belt and behind the discharge tray monitors the turned aluminum cans to check whether there are any defects in their appearance, and whether their position and status are normal;
[0032] During the whole process, two cameras continuously monitor different stages. Once problems are found, such as filling quality problems or product appearance problems, relevant information can be recorded to facilitate traceability and optimize the production process.
[0033] The receiving tray is located below the feed tray and the discharge tray to catch the spilled material during the filling process to prevent the material from contaminating the working environment or causing waste.
[0034] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0035] In the present invention, as the feeding shaft continues to rotate, the aluminum cans move forward along the spiral trajectory in the notch of the feeding shaft to achieve quantitative transportation. During the entire feeding process, the feeding of the aluminum cans is a continuous process, avoiding the time interval caused by waiting for the cylinder to retract, the push rod to reset or other components to move, greatly shortening the feeding time cycle, allowing more aluminum cans to be processed per unit time, and speeding up the rhythm of the entire production process.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0045] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be described clearly and completely below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments.
[0046] Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making any creative work shall fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0047] See also Figure 1-8 , the present invention provides a technical solution:
[0048] A bearing structure of a sterile storage tank with good sealing performance comprises an aluminum can of mineral water, a conveyor belt 1, a filling rack 2, a servo motor 3, and a feeding shaft 4. The filling rack 2 comprises a feeding tray 201, and the feeding tray 201 is located on one side of the filling rack 2. The servo motor 3 is installed on the top surface of the conveyor belt 1, and the servo motor 3 is located on the front side of the feeding tray 201. The output shaft of the servo motor 3 is connected to the feeding shaft 4, and the feeding shaft 4 is spiral. The side of the feeding shaft 4 is provided with a notch adapted to the width of the aluminum can.
[0049] After the servo motor 3 is turned on, its output shaft drives the spiral feeding shaft 4 to rotate.
[0050] Since a notch matching the width of the aluminum can is provided on the side of the feeding shaft 4, the aluminum can can be inserted into the notch.
[0051] As the feeding shaft 4 continues to rotate, the aluminum cans move forward along the spiral trajectory in the gap of the feeding shaft 4 to achieve quantitative transportation.
[0052] When the aluminum cans are conveyed to the position of the feed tray 201, the feed tray 201 receives the aluminum cans and, by rotating itself, transfers the aluminum cans to the filling rack 2 for subsequent filling operations.
[0053] It should be noted that the above-mentioned filling device can be selected as an aluminum can (can) filling machine such as TRP8-2A or TRP12-2A, and the filling solution is mineral water.
[0054] At the same time, the conveyor belt 1 keeps running, providing a mobile basis for the material flow of the entire equipment.
[0055] The design of the spiral feeding shaft 4 can utilize its continuous spiral structure to make the aluminum cans move forward steadily during the rotation process, thereby achieving efficient feeding operations. Compared with some linear or intermittent feeding methods, it can effectively improve the feeding efficiency and speed up the overall production rhythm.
[0056] A notch adapted to the width of the aluminum can is set on the side of the feeding shaft 4, which can accurately clamp the aluminum can, ensure the relative stability of the position of the aluminum can during the transportation process, avoid shaking, sliding, etc. during the transportation process, ensure the accuracy and stability of the feeding, and facilitate the smooth progress of the subsequent filling process.
[0057] The servo motor 3 is installed on the top surface of the conveyor belt 1 and is located in front of the feed tray 201. This layout is compact and reasonable. It not only makes full use of the space of the conveyor belt 1, but also makes the connection between the servo motor 3 and the feed tray 201 and the loading shaft 4 compact, reducing the overall footprint of the equipment. At the same time, it facilitates power transmission between various components and improves the stability of equipment operation.
[0058] As a form of mineral water packaging, cans (aluminum cans) have many advantages and benefits, as follows:
[0059] Lightweight and easy to carry: The density of aluminum is relatively small, which makes the cans light and convenient for consumers to carry. Whether in outdoor sports, travel or daily travel, they can be easily placed in backpacks, pockets, etc. without adding too much burden.
[0060] Strong and durable: Although aluminum cans are light in texture, they have good strength and toughness. They can withstand a certain degree of extrusion and collision without deformation or cracking. They can effectively protect mineral water during transportation and storage and reduce product losses caused by packaging damage.
[0061] Good sealing performance: The sealing technology used in the cans can ensure that the mineral water is completely isolated from the outside air, moisture, etc., effectively preventing the entry of pollutants such as bacteria and dust, ensuring the hygiene and quality of the mineral water and extending its shelf life.
[0062] Strong corrosion resistance: Aluminum easily reacts with oxygen in the air, forming a dense aluminum oxide film on the surface. This oxide film can prevent the internal aluminum from further reacting chemically with water and other substances. Therefore, aluminum cans can resist the corrosion of mineral water very well, will not have adverse effects on water quality, and ensure the taste and quality stability of mineral water.
[0063] Non-toxic: Aluminum is a relatively safe metal material. Under normal circumstances, it will not release harmful substances into mineral water. It meets the safety standards for food packaging and will not cause harm to human health. Consumers can drink it with confidence.
[0064] High recyclability: Aluminum has high recycling value. The energy consumption for recycling is only about 5% of the energy consumption for original aluminum production. The quality loss of aluminum after recycling is small. Aluminum cans used by consumers can be easily recycled and reused in the production of new aluminum products after processing, which is conducive to saving resources and protecting the environment.
[0065] Environmentally friendly: Aluminum cans used by consumers can be easily recycled and reused in the production of new aluminum products after processing, which is conducive to saving resources and protecting the environment.
[0066] Environmentally friendly: Compared with some plastic packaging, aluminum cans degrade relatively quickly in the natural environment. They will not remain for a long time like plastics and cause serious pollution to the soil, water sources, etc., and are more environmentally friendly.
[0067] Furthermore, the feeding shaft 4 includes a fixed shaft 401 and a movable shaft 402. The fixed shaft 401 can only be horizontally slidably arranged on the movable shaft 402. The outer side of the fixed shaft 401 is connected with a movable leaf 403, and the outer side of the movable shaft 402 is connected with a fixed leaf 404. The movable shaft 402 is rotatably connected with a screw rod 405. A threaded hole 406 is opened on the fixed shaft 401, and the screw rod 405 is threadedly connected with the threaded hole 406.
[0068] The outer side of the movable shaft 402 is connected to the fixed leaf 404, on which the screw 405 is rotatably connected, while the outer side of the fixed shaft 401 is connected to the movable leaf 403, and the fixed shaft 401 can only slide horizontally on the movable shaft 402, and its relative position is adjusted through the threaded hole 406 and the screw 405.
[0069] When the width of the feeding shaft 4 needs to be adjusted, the screw 405 is rotated. Since the screw 405 is threadedly connected to the threaded hole 406 of the fixed shaft 401, according to the principle of thread transmission, the rotation of the screw 405 will be converted into horizontal linear motion of the fixed shaft 401 on the movable shaft 402.
[0070] When the screw 405 rotates clockwise, the fixed shaft 401 will slide horizontally in one direction;
[0071] When the screw 405 rotates counterclockwise, the fixed shaft 401 will slide horizontally in another direction, thereby changing the distance between the movable leaf 403 and the fixed leaf 404, thereby adjusting the overall width of the feeding shaft 4 to accommodate aluminum cans of different widths.
[0072] Through the threaded connection between the screw 405 and the threaded hole 406, the width of the feeding shaft 4 is adjustable, which allows the feeding shaft 4 to adapt to aluminum cans of different sizes, greatly improving the versatility of the equipment. When facing production tasks with different product specifications, there is no need to replace the feeding shaft 4 components, reducing the equipment modification cost and time cost.
[0073] This adjustment method can adjust the width of the feeding shaft 4 only through the simple cooperation of the screw 405, the threaded hole 406, the fixed shaft 401 and the movable shaft 402. It has a simple structure and is easy to manufacture and maintain. While ensuring the functionality, it reduces the complexity of the equipment and improves the reliability of the equipment.
[0074] By utilizing the characteristics of the threaded connection, the width of the feeding shaft 4 can be accurately adjusted. The width of the feeding shaft 4 can be accurately adjusted according to the sizes of different aluminum cans, avoiding the problem of aluminum cans being stuck or unable to be transported stably due to inappropriate width of the feeding shaft 4, thereby ensuring a smooth and efficient feeding process.
[0075] Furthermore, a connecting block 407 is provided on the movable shaft 402 , and the movable shaft 402 is fixedly connected to the end of the fixed leaf 404 through the connecting block 407 , and the movable shaft 402 is fixedly connected to the output shaft of the servo motor 3 through the connecting block 407 .
[0076] The fixed leaf 404 is provided with a notch that fits with the outer wall of the fixed shaft 401 , and the movable leaf 403 is welded to the outer wall of the fixed shaft 401 .
[0077] The movable shaft 402 is fixedly connected to the end of the fixed leaf 404 and the output shaft of the servo motor 3 through a connecting block 407 .
[0078] In this way, the rotational power of the servo motor 3 can be effectively transmitted to the movable shaft 402, thereby driving the entire feeding shaft 4 to rotate.
[0079] At the same time, since the movable shaft 402 and the fixed blade 404 are firmly connected via the connecting block 407, the stability of the structure and the reliability of power transmission are ensured.
[0080] The fixing leaf 404 is provided with a notch that fits with the outer wall of the fixing shaft 401 , so that the fixing shaft 401 can fit tightly with the fixing leaf 404 , thereby ensuring the relative position relationship between the two.
[0081] The movable leaf 403 is welded to the outer wall of the fixed shaft 401, which ensures that the movable leaf 403 is firmly connected to the fixed shaft 401 and does not cause relative displacement during use.
[0082] The outer sides of the movable leaf 403 and the fixed leaf 404 are covered with a flexible cover 408 which is made of rubber.
[0083] When the aluminum can is conveyed by the feeding shaft 4, the flexible sleeve 408 made of rubber material will contact the surface of the aluminum can, which can protect the aluminum can from being scratched or damaged.
[0084] On the other hand, since the rubber material has a certain friction force, it can increase the friction force between the aluminum can and the feeding shaft 4, preventing the aluminum can from slipping during the transportation process, thereby ensuring the stability and reliability of the feeding process.
[0085] Through the connection method of the connecting block 407, the connection between the servo motor 3 and the movable shaft 402 and the fixed leaf 404 is firm, ensuring the stability of power transmission, reducing power loss, allowing the feeding shaft 4 to obtain sufficient power, and ensuring the smooth progress of the feeding work.
[0086] The notch on the fixed leaf 404 fits the outer wall of the fixed shaft 401, and the welding connection of the movable leaf 403 ensures the position accuracy between the components of the feeding shaft 4, prevents the normal operation of the feeding shaft 4 from being affected by the relative displacement between the components, and improves the reliability and accuracy of the equipment.
[0087] The provision of the flexible sleeve 408 not only protects the surface of the aluminum can and prevents the product from being scratched and damaged, but also enhances the friction between the rubber and the aluminum can due to the friction characteristics of the rubber, thereby preventing the aluminum can from slipping and shifting or falling during the transportation process, thereby improving the stability of the loading process and the product quality, and reducing production accidents and product defects caused by unstable transportation.
[0088] Relatively simple connection and matching methods, such as the connection and welding method of the connection block 407 and the assembly method of the flexible sleeve 408, are adopted. Under the premise of ensuring the function of the equipment, the equipment is more convenient in the subsequent maintenance and overhaul process, and the maintenance cost and difficulty are reduced.
[0089] Furthermore, the filling rack 2 also includes a discharge tray 202, the feed tray 201 rotates in opposite directions to the discharge tray 202, and the discharge tray 202 is located on the other side of the filling rack 2. A guard plate 101 is provided on the conveyor belt 1, and a guide plate adapted to the feed tray 201 and the discharge tray 202 is provided on the guard plate 101.
[0090] A receiving tray 203 is provided below the filling rack 2 , and the receiving tray 203 is located between the feed tray 201 and the discharge tray 202 .
[0091] The feed tray 201 is located at one side of the filling rack 2. When rotating, it introduces materials such as aluminum cans conveyed from the conveyor belt 1 by the feed shaft 4 into the filling rack 2 to provide materials for subsequent filling operations.
[0092] When the aluminum cans have completed filling and other operations in the filling rack 2, the discharging tray 202 starts to rotate, and the aluminum cans that have completed the processing are taken out from the filling rack 2, completing the discharging action.
[0093] The design that the feed tray 201 and the discharge tray 202 rotate in opposite directions makes the flow of materials in the filling rack 2 smoother, thereby avoiding mutual interference of materials during the feeding and exiting process.
[0094] The guide piece is adapted to the feed tray 201 and the discharge tray 202. When the aluminum can is transferred from the conveyor belt 1 to the feed tray 201, the guide piece on the guard plate 101 will guide the aluminum can to enter the feed tray 201 accurately.
[0095] Similarly, when the aluminum can leaves the filling rack 2 from the discharge tray 202 and returns to the conveyor belt 1, the guide plate will also guide the aluminum can to move along a predetermined path, ensuring that the transmission path of the aluminum can on the conveyor belt 1 is accurate and preventing it from deviating from the predetermined trajectory during the entry and exit process.
[0096] The receiving tray 203 is located below the feed tray 201 and the discharge tray 202. During the filling process, if any material is spilled, the receiving tray 203 can catch the spilled material to prevent it from polluting the working environment or causing waste of material.
[0097] The design that the feed tray 201 and the discharge tray 202 rotate in opposite directions allows the material to be fed and discharged simultaneously, thereby improving the efficiency of the entire filling process, reducing waiting time, making the entire production process smoother, and improving the production efficiency of the equipment.
[0098] The guide plates on the guard plate 101 can provide precise guidance for the aluminum cans, ensuring that they can accurately enter and leave the corresponding feed tray 201 and discharge tray 202 when entering and leaving the filling rack 2, avoiding the deviation and confusion of materials during the transfer process, improving the operating accuracy of the equipment, and reducing production accidents and product defects caused by inaccurate material transfer.
[0099] The receiving tray 203 can effectively collect materials that may be spilled during the filling process, preventing the materials from spilling on the ground and polluting the environment. At the same time, the spilled materials can be recycled, reducing material costs, meeting environmental protection requirements, and reducing pollution to the working environment.
[0100] The guard plate 101 not only provides guidance for the aluminum cans, but also plays a certain protective role for the aluminum cans, preventing the aluminum cans from accidentally falling during the transmission process, thereby improving the safety and stability of the equipment operation.
[0101] Furthermore, the filling rack 2 also includes a camera 204 . There are two locations of the camera 204 , one located below the filling rack 2 , and the other located above the conveyor belt 1 and behind the discharge tray 202 .
[0102] A flip channel 5 is also provided between the discharge tray 202 and the camera 204. The flip channel 5 includes a guide rod 501 and a limit rod 502. The starting end and the tail end of the guide rod 501 and the limit rod 502 both have a rotation angle of 180°.
[0103] The filling rack 2 is equipped with two cameras 204, one of which is located below the filling rack 2. The camera 204 can be used to monitor the filling process, such as observing the flow of materials during filling, whether leakage occurs, and whether the filling amount of materials is accurate.
[0104] Another camera 204 is located above the conveyor belt 1 and behind the discharge tray 202. This camera 204 can be used to monitor the aluminum cans coming out of the discharge tray 202 to observe whether there are any defects in their appearance and whether the position and status of the aluminum cans are normal.
[0105] Through these two cameras 204, the products after filling and discharging can be monitored at different angles and stages to ensure that the production process is under control.
[0106] The guide rod 501 and the limit rod 502 in the turning channel 5 play a key role.
[0107] Since the starting end and the tail end of the guide rod 501 and the limit rod 502 both have a rotation angle of 180°, when the aluminum can moves along the channel, it will gradually flip 180° under the guidance and restriction of the guide rod 501 and the limit rod 502.
[0108] The guide rod 501 guides the aluminum can along a predetermined flipping path, while the limit rod 502 prevents the aluminum can from deviating from the flipping path during the flipping process, ensuring that the aluminum can can stably and accurately complete a 180° flip, providing convenience for subsequent possible processing or handling procedures, such as double-sided inspection, labeling or other operations on the aluminum can.
[0109] The two cameras 204 can monitor the entire production process in real time from different positions, and can promptly detect various problems in the production process, such as filling quality problems (insufficient filling volume, overflow, leakage, etc.) and product appearance problems (damage, deformation, etc.), which helps to improve product quality, reduce the production of defective products, and ensure product consistency and reliability.
[0110] For any problems that arise, the records of the camera 204 can be used to conveniently trace and find the root cause of the problem, thus providing a basis for optimizing the production process and troubleshooting.
[0111] The setting of the turning channel 5 provides a simple and effective turning method for the aluminum can, so that the aluminum can can be turned 180 degrees.
[0112] This flipping function can facilitate a variety of subsequent processing or handling procedures, improve the versatility of the equipment, and eliminate the need for additional manual operation or complex equipment to flip the aluminum cans, reducing labor and equipment costs.
[0113] The design of the guide rod 501 and the limit rod 502 ensures the stability and accuracy of the aluminum can flipping process, reduces the damage or position displacement of the aluminum can caused by improper flipping operation, and improves the reliability of the production process.
[0114] The use of the camera 204 to monitor and automatically flip the channel 5 can optimize the entire production process, reduce manual intervention, and improve the degree of automation of the production process, thereby improving production efficiency and production safety.

[0147] Real-time monitoring and automated control: Multiple sensors are installed in the filling area to monitor air quality and microbial content in real time.
[0148] Once an abnormality is detected, the system will automatically alarm and take measures. The control system can monitor and adjust the filling parameters in real time to ensure that each can is filled under aseptic conditions.
[0149] Regular maintenance and cleaning: Regularly maintain and clean the filling equipment to ensure that there is no dirt and microbial growth on the equipment surface.
[0150] Regularly and thoroughly disinfect the filling area and equipment to ensure the sterility of the entire production environment.
[0151] Through this innovative carrying and filling method, the present invention provides an efficient, reliable and hygienic solution for the production of canned mineral water, which is particularly suitable for large-scale production environments and can significantly reduce production costs and improve market competitiveness.
