Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of production lines for barreled materials, and specifically to an automatic lid covering device. Background Art

[0002] Barreled materials refer to liquid, paste, granular or solid materials packaged in containers such as plastic barrels and metal barrels, and are widely used in industries such as chemical engineering, food, and medicine. During the production and processing of barreled materials, production line flow processing is mostly adopted.

[0003] The existing technology does not have a structure for double-layer cylinder clamping to block the feeding and discharging of barrel lids and accurately positioning the barrel lids for lid covering when in use. When the existing barreled material production line covers the lid, it is mainly manual lid covering combined with a mechanism for pressing. The efficiency of manual lid covering is relatively low, and due to the limitation of production continuity, the workload is relatively large, and there are safety hazards during the production process. When covering and pressing the lid, it is necessary for workers to accurately cover the barrel lid on the top of the barrel, or the production line automatically drops on the top of the barrel for lid covering. The way of dropping and covering by the production line will have a certain deviation, and it is impossible to perform centering positioning, picking and placing, and pressing the lid treatment for the barrel and the barrel lid. Based on the deficiencies of the existing technology, the present invention designs an automatic lid covering device. Summary of the Invention

[0004] In view of the deficiencies of the existing technology, the present invention provides an automatic lid covering device, which has the advantages of double-layer cylinder clamping to block the feeding and discharging of barrel lids and accurately positioning the barrel lids for lid covering.

One end of the belt support is provided with a blanking mechanism for facilitating the automatic feeding and discharging of lids, and the other end of the belt support is provided with a lid covering mechanism for facilitating the automatic grasping and covering of lids.

[0006] The lid covering mechanism includes a lid picking and pressing support, a barrel limiting cylinder, a positioning clamping arm, a lead screw motor module, a cylinder mounting plate, a lifting cylinder, a vacuum suction cup mounting plate, and a vacuum suction cup main body. The lid picking and pressing support is arranged at one end of the belt support. Two groups of barrel limiting cylinders are fixedly arranged in the lid picking and pressing support. The positioning clamping arm is fixedly connected to the telescopic end of the barrel limiting cylinder. The lead screw motor module is fixedly connected to the lid picking and pressing support. The cylinder mounting plate is slidably arranged at the bottom of the lead screw motor module. The lifting cylinder is fixedly arranged on the lower surface of the cylinder mounting plate. The vacuum suction cup mounting plate is arranged at the bottom telescopic end of the lifting cylinder. The vacuum suction cup main body is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the vacuum suction cup mounting plate.

[0007] As a preferred technical solution of the present invention, the blanking mechanism includes a blanking bracket, a panel, a buffer storage rack, a clamping cylinder, a clamping arm, a release cylinder, a release tray and a chute. The blanking bracket is arranged at one end of the belt bracket. The panel is fixedly connected inside the blanking bracket. The buffer storage rack is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the panel. Two groups of the clamping cylinders are fixedly connected to the upper surface of the panel. The clamping arm is fixedly connected to the telescopic end of the clamping cylinder. Two groups of the release cylinders are fixedly connected to the lower surface of the panel. The release tray is fixedly connected to the telescopic end of the release cylinder. The chute is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the panel.

[0008] As a preferred technical solution of the present invention, a ramp belt group is arranged on the upper surface of the belt bracket. Side guard plates are fixedly connected to both sides of the ramp belt group. Blocking plates are arranged inside both ends of the side guard plates.

[0009] As a preferred technical solution of the present invention, the vacuum suction cup body is movably connected above the top end of the ramp belt group.

[0010] As a preferred technical solution of the present invention, the vacuum suction cup body moves up and down between two groups of barrel limiting cylinders and positioning clamping arms.

[0011] As a preferred technical solution of the present invention, a round hole is formed in the panel, and the inner diameter of the round hole in the panel is equal to that of the buffer storage rack.

[0012] As a preferred technical solution of the present invention, the chute is arranged below the round hole in the panel.

[0013] As a preferred technical solution of the present invention, the side guard plates are arranged above the belt bracket, and the blocking plates are arranged above both ends of the ramp belt group.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0015] 1. The automatic lid-lowering device, in the initial state, the release cylinder is in the extended state to control the release tray to be located below the panel round hole and the buffer storage rack to intercept and block the bucket lid. There are multiple bucket lids stacked and stored in the buffer storage rack. First, the clamping cylinder controls the clamping arm to move backward to release the clamping and fixing of the bucket lid, so that the bucket lid in the buffer storage rack directly falls on the release tray without restriction. Then, the clamping cylinder pushes the clamping arm to extend to clamp and fix the second-layer bucket lid at the bottom and prevent the bucket lids stored above from continuing to move down. At this time, the release cylinder controls the release tray to retract, opening the round hole at the bottom of the panel, so that the bottommost bucket lid directly falls into the chute without restriction and slides onto the ramp belt group and is transferred to the top lid-covering mechanism. Finally, the release cylinder pushes the release tray to extend to re-close the panel round hole, and the clamping cylinder controls the clamping arm to release the clamping and fixing of the bucket lid. By repeating this operation step by step, the lid-lowering operation can be continuously carried out. This device facilitates the automatic lowering of the bucket lid.

[0016] 2. The automatic lid-covering device, after the bucket lid is transferred to the top by the ramp belt group, the lead screw motor module controls the cylinder mounting plate to move to the end closest to the ramp belt group, so that the cylinder mounting plate drives the lifting cylinder and the vacuum suction cup body to move above the ramp belt group and the cover plate. At this time, the lifting cylinder extends to push the vacuum suction cup body to move down, so that the vacuum suction cup body contacts the top of the bucket lid and uses negative pressure to adsorb and fix the vacuum suction cup body and the bucket lid. At this time, the lifting cylinder retracts to pull the vacuum suction cup body and the bucket lid to move up. Finally, the lead screw motor module controls the cylinder mounting plate to drive the lifting cylinder, the vacuum suction cup body and the bucket lid to move above the bucket clamped between the two sets of barrel limit cylinders and positioning clamping arms. The lifting cylinder pushes the vacuum suction cup body and the bucket lid to move down, so that the bucket lid can be pressed on the top of the material barrel, and the contact between the vacuum suction cup body and the bucket lid is fixed by negative pressure adsorption. By repeating this operation, this device facilitates the automatic lid-covering operation. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0025] By setting the barrel limiting cylinder 302 and the positioning clamping arm 303, it is convenient to position and fix the material barrel. By setting the lead screw motor module 304 and the cylinder mounting plate 305, it is convenient to control the movement of the vacuum suction cup body 308 between the barrel limiting cylinder 302, the positioning clamping arm 303 and the top of the ramp belt group 101 to transport the barrel cover.

[0026] Please refer to Figure 2 As shown in the figure, the blanking mechanism 2 includes a blanking support 201, a panel 202, a buffer storage rack 203, a clamping cylinder 204, a clamping arm 205, a release cylinder 206, a release tray 207 and a chute 208. The blanking support 201 is arranged at one end of the belt support 1. The panel 202 is fixedly connected inside the blanking support 201. The buffer storage rack 203 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the panel 202. Two groups of clamping cylinders 204 are fixedly connected to the upper surface of the panel 202. The clamping arm 205 is fixedly connected to the telescopic end of the clamping cylinder 204. Two groups of release cylinders 206 are fixedly connected to the lower surface of the panel 202.

A round hole is opened on the panel 202, and the round hole of the panel 202 is equal to the inner diameter of the buffer storage rack 203. The chute 208 is arranged below the round hole of the panel 202.

[0027] By setting the blanking support 201, the panel 202 and the buffer storage rack 203, it is convenient to store more barrel covers for automatic cover feeding treatment. By setting the clamping cylinder 204, the clamping arm 205, the release cylinder 206 and the release tray 207, it is convenient to control the blanking of the barrel covers in the buffer storage rack 203 one by one, preventing a large number of barrel covers from accumulating on the ramp belt group 101 in a short time and making it impossible to operate. By setting the chute 208, it is convenient to transfer the barrel covers falling in the buffer storage rack 203 to the ramp belt group 101 for transfer.

[0028] Working principle: When an automatic capping device is in use, in the initial state, first, the ramp belt group 101 is arranged on the upper surface of the belt support 1. Two groups of blocking plates 103 are also installed inside the side guard plates 102 installed on both sides of the ramp belt group 101 and are arranged above the ramp belt group 101, so as to transfer the lids on the low-position blanking mechanism 2 to the high-position capping mechanism 3 for grasping and covering the barrel.

[0029] When the automatic removal of the barrel cover is required, in the initial state, the release cylinder 206 is extended. The control release tray 207 is located below the round hole of the panel 202 and the buffer rack 203 to intercept and block the barrel cover. Multiple barrel covers are stacked and stored in the buffer rack 203. First, the clamping cylinder 204 controls the clamping arm 205 to move backward to release the clamping and fixing of the barrel cover, so that the barrel cover in the buffer rack 203 directly falls on the release tray 207 due to being unrestricted. Then, the clamping cylinder 204 pushes the clamping arm 205 to extend to clamp and fix the second-layer barrel cover at the bottom and prevent the barrel covers stored above from continuing to move down. At this time, the release cylinder 206 controls the release tray 207 to retract, opening the round hole at the bottom of the panel 202, so that the bottommost barrel cover directly falls into the chute 208 and slides onto the ramp belt group 101 and is transferred to the top cover mechanism 3. Finally, the release cylinder 206 pushes the release tray 207 to extend to re-close the round hole of the panel 202, and the clamping cylinder 204 controls the clamping arm 205 to release the clamping and fixing of the barrel cover. By repeating this operation step by step, the operation of removing the cover can be continuously carried out. This device facilitates the automatic removal of the barrel cover.

[0030] When the automatic cover operation is required, first, after the barrel cover is transferred to the top by the ramp belt group 101, the lead screw motor module 304 controls the cylinder mounting plate 305 to move to the end closest to the ramp belt group 101, so that the cylinder mounting plate 305 drives the lifting cylinder 306 and the vacuum suction cup body 308 to move above the ramp belt group 101 and the cover plate. At this time, the lifting cylinder 306 extends to push the vacuum suction cup body 308 to move down, so that the vacuum suction cup body 308 contacts the top of the barrel cover and uses negative pressure to adsorb and fix the vacuum suction cup body 308 and the barrel cover. At this time, the lifting cylinder 306 retracts to pull the vacuum suction cup body 308 and the barrel cover to move up. Finally, the lead screw motor module 304 controls the cylinder mounting plate 305 to drive the lifting cylinder 306, the vacuum suction cup body 308 and the barrel cover to move above the barrel clamped between the two sets of barrel limiting cylinders 302 and the positioning clamping arms 303. The lifting cylinder 306 pushes the vacuum suction cup body 308 and the barrel cover to move down, so that the barrel cover can be pressed on the top of the barrel, and the contact between the vacuum suction cup body 308 and the barrel cover is fixed by negative pressure adsorption. By repeating this operation, this device facilitates the automatic cover operation.
