Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of canned beverage conveying devices, and particularly to a canned beverage shunting and conveying device. Background Art
[0002] With the continuous increase in the demand for canned products such as beverages and beers, automated production lines have played an important role in improving production efficiency and reducing labor costs. During the production process of canned products, the shunting and conveying of canned beverages are key links. Traditional manual sorting and conveying methods are inefficient, costly, and prone to product damage or production line stagnation due to human operation errors. Therefore, it is of great significance to develop an efficient and reliable canned beverage shunting and conveying device.
[0003] After retrieval, it is found that the prior art with the publication number CN207956831U discloses a shunting canned beverage conveying device, which includes: a conveyor belt and a turntable. The turntable is located above the conveyor belt. A sheath is concentrically arranged outside the turntable. An inlet is arranged at the front end of the sheath. Guide plates connected to the inlet are symmetrically arranged on the inner side surface of the guard plate. Several arc grooves are concavely arranged on the outer edge of the turntable. An outlet is arranged at the rear end of the sheath. Block baffles are arranged at intervals above the conveyor belt and behind the sheath to form a parallel canned beverage channel. An arc plate corresponding to the canned beverage channel is sequentially arranged in the outlet for filling. An installation plate is arranged on the guard plate above the arc plate. A lifting device corresponding to the arc plate is arranged on the installation plate. This solution shunts through the canned beverage conveying device. When a single lifting device rises, it drives the arc plate to rise, opening the corresponding canned beverage channel for shunting.
[0004] Therefore, based on the above retrieval and in combination with the existing technology, most existing shunting devices use a single conveyor belt or simple mechanical baffles for shunting. Canned beverages are prone to dislocation or accumulation during high-speed operation. At the same time, mechanical shunting devices may scratch or deform the surface of canned beverages during high-speed operation. Some canned beverages may also get stuck in the gaps of the diversion plates, causing the diversion plates to fail to rotate normally, resulting in large-area congestion of canned beverages during transmission, which not only affects product quality but also seriously hinders the continuous operation of the production line. For this reason, this application proposes a canned beverage shunting and conveying device. Summary of the Invention

Specific implementation mode
[0018] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
[0019] Embodiment 1: Please refer to Figure 1 - Figure 3 , a can shunting and conveying device, including a frame 1. A feeding chain 3 for transporting cans is arranged at the upper end of the frame 1. A plurality of shunting hoppers 2 are fixedly installed at the upper end of the frame 1 through bolts for shunting the cans on the feeding chain 3. Both the left and right ends of the inner side of the frame 1 are rotatably installed with drums 5 through rotating shafts, and the feeding chain 3 is tensioned and sleeved on the outer surface of the drums 5. A driving motor 4 is fixedly installed on the outer surface of the frame 1 through bolts, and the output shaft of the driving motor 4 is fixedly connected to the left drum 5. Specifically, a tensioner is arranged at the inner end of the frame 1, and the telescopic end of the tensioner contacts the inner end of the feeding chain 3. A driving strip is fixedly installed on the outer surface of the drum 5. When the drum 5 rotates, the driving strip is embedded into the gap of the feeding chain 3, thereby driving the feeding chain 3 to rotate. A plurality of pushing plates 31 are slidably connected to the outer surface of the feeding chain 3 for guiding the cans to the shunting hoppers 2. The plurality of pushing plates 31 are respectively arranged alternately on the front and rear sides of the feeding chain 3, and the pushing plates 31 on both sides move alternately in opposite directions in sequence to push the cans above the feeding chain 3 into the shunting hoppers 2 to complete the shunting process, thereby maximizing the processing efficiency. An inner plate 201 is fixedly welded at the inner end of the frame 1. An isolation plate 202 is arranged above the inner plate 201, and a guide rail 203 for guiding the pushing plates 31 is arranged inside the isolation plate 202. A commutation device for switching the orientation of the guide rail 203 is arranged between the isolation plate 202 and the inner plate 201.
[0020] Please refer to Figure 3 - Figure 6 、 Figure 11 At the bottom end of the pushing plate 31, there is a fixedly connected abutting block 32. The abutting block 32 passes through the gap of the feeding chain 3, and a sliding groove is formed above the feeding chain 3. On the left and right sides of the bottom end of the pushing plate 31, there are fixedly connected sliding blocks. When the feeding chain 3 is in a horizontal state, the sliding blocks on the left and right sides are respectively arranged in two adjacent sliding grooves, so that the pushing plate 31 is more stable when sliding and pushing the beverage can. Inside the frame 1, a plurality of driven sprockets 101 are rotatably installed. The driven sprockets 101 are located between the inner plate 201 and the partition plate 202. When a plurality of pushing plates 31 pass above the driven sprockets 101, the abutting blocks 32 at their bottom ends engage with the driven sprockets 101, thereby driving the driven sprockets 101 to rotate. Specifically, when a plurality of pushing plates 31 move in parallel, the abutting blocks 32 at their bottom ends form a "rack" structure, thereby driving the driven sprockets 101 to rotate during the movement of the pushing plate 31; Inside the frame 1, a plurality of drive shafts 102 are rotatably installed. Each drive shaft 102 corresponds to a driven sprocket 101. Output sprockets are fixedly sleeved on the outer surfaces of the driven sprocket 101 and the drive shaft 102, and the two output sprockets are tensioned and sleeved by a toothed belt 103. An inner wheel 106 is fixedly installed on the outer surface of the drive shaft 102. A double-toothed sleeve 107 is rotatably installed on the outer surface of the inner wheel 106. A plurality of rectangular holes are formed on the outer surface of the inner wheel 106. The rectangular holes are arranged in a ring shape, and passive blocks 108 are respectively arranged in the rectangular holes. The passive blocks 108 are connected to the inner wheel 106 through spring rings 109. A plurality of triangular blocks are fixedly installed at the inner end of the double-toothed sleeve 107. The triangular blocks are arranged in a ring shape and correspond to the passive blocks 108. Specifically, when the double-toothed sleeve 107 rotates in the reverse direction, the inclined plane of the triangular block contacts the outer surface of the passive block 108. Lubricating butter is applied between the triangular block and the passive block 108 to reduce the friction force. Under the extrusion of the inclined plane, the passive block 108 contracts towards the inside of the inner wheel 106, and at the same time compresses the spring ring 109; when the double-toothed sleeve 107 rotates forward, the back surface of the triangular block contacts the passive block 108 and drives the inner wheel 106 to rotate through the passive block 108. Among them, the driven sprocket 101 is made of a metal material with a relatively heavy mass. Then, when the double-toothed sleeve 107 rotates in the reverse direction, the friction force between the triangular block and the passive block 108 is less than the resistance of the driven sprocket 101. Therefore, the inner wheel 106 can prevent the double-toothed sleeve 107 from rotating self when rotating in the reverse direction.
[0021] Embodiment 2: Please refer to Figure 3 、 Figure 5 、 Figure 11, a diversion and conveying device for aluminum cans. Based on Embodiment 1, a plurality of guiding cylinders 301 are fixedly installed at the upper end of the inner plate 201 through clamps. Specifically, a total of four guiding cylinders 301 are provided, and they are symmetrically installed in pairs at the upper end of the inner plate 201. The outer surfaces of the guiding cylinders 301 are all slidably connected with sliding arc plates 104. One end of the sliding arc plate 104 close to the inner wheel 106 is fixedly connected with a passive rack 105. The passive rack 105 meshes with a double-tooth sleeve 107. A passive rod 302 is inserted through the inner end of the guiding cylinder 301. The left end of the passive rod 302 is fixedly connected with the sliding arc plate 104 by bolts; The right end of the passive rod 302 is fixedly installed with a passive plug 303. A sealing rubber ring is sleeved on the outer surface of the passive plug 303 and fits with the inner wall of the guiding cylinder 301 to increase airtightness. And the passive plug 303 is connected with the guiding cylinder 301 through a return spring 304; Specifically, the length of the passive rack 105 is the same as that of the passive rod 302, so that when the passive rack 105 moves, the passive rod 302 can follow its movement. A limiting ring is fixedly installed at the left end inside the guiding cylinder 301 to prevent the passive plug 303 from disengaging from the guiding cylinder 301.
[0022] As Figure 3 、 Figure 7 - Figure 11 As shown, the commutation device includes a plurality of guiding rails 203. The guiding rails 203 are inserted into the inside of the partition plate 202. Specifically, the guiding rails 203 are composed of four arc-shaped rails combined to form an "X" - shaped structure. A chute is opened on its outer surface to facilitate the abutting block 32 at the bottom end of the pushing plate 31 to pass through it, so as to achieve a better guiding effect. A central block 204 is fixedly welded to the upper end of the partition plate 202. The central block 204 is located at the intersection of a plurality of guiding rails 203. When two adjacent guiding rails 203 move upward, the central block 204 can fill the gap between the two adjacent guiding rails 203, making the abutting block 32 pass through more smoothly and avoiding jamming. At the same time, lubricating butter is applied to the outer surfaces of the guiding rails 203 and the central block 204 to further make the abutting block 32 slide more smoothly with them; A plurality of holes are opened at the inner end of the inner plate 201. Output cylinders 205 are inserted into the holes. And each output cylinder 205 corresponds to a guiding rail 203. A pushing rod 207 is inserted through the inner end of the output cylinder 205. And the upper end of the pushing rod 207 is fixedly connected with the guiding rail 203 by bolts. The input ends between two mutually staggered output cylinders 205 are connected by a synchronous pipe 206. An active plug 209 is slidably installed at the inner end of the output cylinder 205. A sealing rubber ring is sleeved on the outer surface of the active plug 209 and fits with the inner wall of the output cylinder 205 to achieve the effect of increasing airtightness. And the active plug 209 is fixedly welded to the pushing rod 207. The active plug 209 is connected with the output cylinder 205 through an assisting spring 208; The input end of the output cylinder 205 is fixedly connected with a guide pipe 401. The guide pipe 401 is communicated with the output cylinder 205, and the guide pipe 401 is connected with the guide cylinder 301 through a gas guide pipe 402. When the passive plug 303 inside the guide cylinder 301 moves, the air inside is pushed into the interior of the output cylinder 205 through the gas guide pipe 402. Inside the output cylinder 205 that is staggered relative to the guide pipe 401, under the connection action of the synchronous pipe 206, the interior also starts to be filled with air, causing the movable plug 209 to move upward, and driving the guide rail 203 (i.e., two inclined and opposite guide rails 203) to move upward through the push rod 207, so that when the push plate 31 passes by, it can move from the right side to the left side of the feeding chain 3, thereby realizing the diversion of some beverage cans above the feeding chain 3 to the entrance of the diversion hopper 2 (as Figure 10 indicated by the black line); A central rod 408 is inserted through the inner end of the guide pipe 401. A sealing plug 409 is sleeved on the outer surface of the central rod 408. A sealing rubber ring is sleeved on the outer surface of the sealing plug 409 and fits with the inner wall of the guide pipe 401 to increase airtightness. An air guide groove 406 is formed on the outer surface of the central rod 408. The air guide groove 406 is located on the left side of the sealing plug 409. When the sealing plug 409 moves leftward to the center of the air guide groove 406, the air guide groove 406 connects the chambers on both the left and right sides of the sealing plug 409, and the sealing plug 409 is connected with the guide pipe 401 through an auxiliary spring 407. The elastic force of the return spring 304 is less than the elastic force of the auxiliary spring 407; Specifically, a spiral cap 404 is inserted through the right end of the inner side of the guide pipe 401. The spiral cap 404 is located on the right side of the sealing plug 409 and fits with its outer surface; a rectangular groove is formed on the outer surface of the spiral cap 404, and a rectangular block is fixedly installed at the inner end of the guide pipe 401. The rectangular block is inserted into the rectangular groove to prevent the spiral cap 404 from rotating, and a passive sleeve 405 is rotatably installed at the end of the guide pipe 401 away from the inner plate 201. Specifically (as Figure 3 、 Figure 11 ), passive sleeves 405 are installed outside the two guide pipes 401 located between the passive sprockets 101. The passive sleeve 405 is clamped with the guide pipe 401 through a torsion spring, so that the passive sleeve 405 rotates under force and compresses the torsion spring. When the passive sleeve 405 is no longer under force, it resets under the elastic force of the torsion spring. The passive sleeve 405 is threadedly sleeved on the outer surface of the spiral cap 404, and a traction cable 403 is wound around its outer surface. The free end of the traction cable 403 is wound around the connecting shaft of the passive sprocket 101 corresponding to the isolation plate 202 (as Figure 3 、 Figure 11 shown); More specifically, when the first abutting block 32 at the bottom end of the pushing plate 31 engages with the driven sprocket 101 until the last abutting block 32 engages with the driven sprocket 101, the rotation period of the driven sprocket 101 drives the driven sleeve 405 to rotate through the traction cable 403, so that the screw top cap 404 just pushes the sealing plug 409 to the central position of the air guide groove 406 (the driven sprocket 101 rotates only when it engages with the abutting block 32); A limiting ring is fixedly installed at the right end inside the guiding tube 401. The limiting ring corresponds to the air guide groove 406 and is located on the left side of the sealing plug 409, thereby preventing the sealing plug 409 from moving excessively, resulting in the air on both sides of the sealing plug 409 being unable to flow through the air guide groove 406.
[0023] The working principle of the present invention is: During operation, the driving motor 4 rotates through the winding drum 5, so that the feeding chain 3 drives the beverage can to move. When the feeding chain 3 rotates, it drives the pushing plate 31 to move. When multiple pushing plates 31 move in parallel, the abutting blocks 32 at their bottom ends form a "rack" structure, so as to drive the driven sprocket 101 to rotate during the movement of the pushing plate 31. When the driven sprocket 101 rotates, it drives the driving shaft 102 to rotate through the toothed belt 103. Subsequently, the driving shaft 102 rotates to drive the inner wheel 106 to rotate, so that the driven block 108 contacts the back surface of the triangular block inside the double-tooth sleeve 107, realizing the driving of the double-tooth sleeve 107 to rotate. Subsequently, it drives the driven rack 105 to move. Subsequently, the driven rack 105 drives the driven rod 302 to move through the sliding arc plate 104. The driven rod 302 drives the driven plug 303 to move, and pushes the air inside the guiding cylinder 301 into the two output cylinders 205. Under the action of the air pressure, the movable plug 209 moves upward, and drives the two guiding rails 203 to move upward through the push rod 207. At this time, the pushing plate 31 moves from area D to the area between opposite A and B (as Figure 10 shown by the thick line); During the process of the pushing plate 31 moving towards directions A and B, it pushes the beverage can above the feeding chain 3 into the diversion hopper 2 in area A. Subsequently, the driven sprocket 101 between A and B at this time engages with the abutting blocks 32 at the bottom ends of multiple pushing plates 31 and starts to rotate, so that the guiding rail 203 between B and C is lifted (the position shown by the thick line). During the rotation process, it drives the driven sleeve 405 to rotate through the traction cable 403, so that the screw top cap 404 moves towards the inside of the guiding tube 401, pushes the sealing plug 409 to move, and compresses the auxiliary spring 407. The air guide groove 406 connects the chambers on both sides of the sealing plug 409. At this time, the pressure inside the guiding tube 401 is quickly released. Under the elastic force of the boosting spring 208, the movable plug 209 is pushed downward, so that the lifted guiding rail 203 returns to the initial state. Inside the guiding cylinder 301, the driven plug 303 moves towards the left side under the elastic force of the return spring 304; After the push plate 31 in areas A and B moves towards area C, the abutting block 32 no longer engages with the driven sprocket 101. At this time, under the action of the torsional spring force, the driven sleeve 405 starts to reverse, causing the screw top cap 404 to move towards the right, and the sealing plug 409 returns to its initial state again under the action of the auxiliary spring 407's elastic force. Multiple push plates 31 are distributed alternately on the left and right sides of the material conveying chain 3. When the push plate 31 in area D completely moves to the area between A and B, the guide rail 203 between A and D descends (shown by the thick line), and at the same time, the guide rail 203 of the push plate 31 in area A moves to the area between C and D rises (shown by the thin line). Through this staggered operation mode, the beverage cans on the material conveying chain 3 are separated in sequence, avoiding the blockage of beverage cans during the transportation and processing process, thus maximizing the multi-thread production efficiency.
[0024] The above is only the preferred specific embodiment of the present invention, but the protection scope of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any person skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed by the present invention, according to the technical solution of the present invention and its inventive concept, makes equivalent substitutions or changes, and should be covered by the protection scope of the present invention.
