[0015] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0016] 1. In the prior art, liquid distribution in oral liquid bottles is uneven during the filling process, and bubbles are easily generated. The present invention uses a unique frequency conversion system. When the turntable rotates to the filling station, the linkage gear on the fixed transmission shaft drives the first straight shaft to rotate, and then the first hollow shaft rotates. The high-frequency fan gear and the low-frequency fan gear on the first hollow shaft alternately engage with the frequency conversion gear, driving the bottle holder to rotate, vibrate, and rotate forward and reverse. The vibration frequency and vibration stroke change cyclically. The high-frequency vibration can quickly fill the oral liquid into every corner of the bottle body, thereby increasing the filling speed. The low-frequency vibration helps to expel bubbles in the liquid, making the filling more dense. At the same time, the alternating forward and reverse rotation of the bottle holder further promotes uniform distribution of the liquid, greatly improving the filling quality, reducing the defective rate, and solving the problems of uneven liquid distribution and easy bubble generation in the prior art.
[0017] 2. The existing filling equipment is not convenient for automatically achieving the discharge of oxygen and injection of inert gas for protection in the oral liquid bottle during filling. The fixed valve cylinder and pipeline connection structure of the present invention realizes precise control of functions through the mutually isolated filling chamber, gas injection chamber and negative pressure chamber, as well as reasonable pipeline connection. At the filling station, the oral liquid is injected into the bottle through the filling chamber, the filling tube and the spray hole. At the gas injection station, argon gas is injected into the bottle through the gas injection chamber, which plays a role of protection and isolation. At the same time, at the filling station and the gas injection station, the vacuum pump generates negative pressure through the negative pressure chamber to suck out the air and excess gas in the oral liquid bottle, thereby ensuring the quality of filling, avoiding the problems of unclear separation of filling, gas injection and suction functions and gas leakage in the existing technology, and improving the safety and stability of filling.
[0018] 3. In the filling process of existing equipment, the temperature difference between the bottle body and the medicine liquid is large, which can easily cause the bottle body to break or the properties of the medicine liquid to change. The present invention sets an electric heating block at the heating station. Before the filling operation, the electric heating block heats the oral liquid bottle, which can reduce the viscosity of the medicine liquid and improve the fluidity of the medicine liquid by increasing the temperature in the bottle, so that the medicine liquid can pass through the filling tube and the nozzle more smoothly, ensuring the stability and accuracy of the filling, avoiding problems such as poor filling and dripping to improve efficiency and quality. At the same time, it can reduce the temperature difference between the bottle body and the medicine liquid, reduce the bottle body breakage or changes in the properties of the medicine liquid caused by temperature difference impact, protect the integrity of the bottle body and ensure the quality of the medicine liquid. In addition, the appropriate bottle body temperature can also improve the surface tension and interface characteristics of the medicine liquid, so that it can better adhere to the bottle wall, reduce the generation and aggregation of bubbles, create favorable conditions for the subsequent defoaming process, and further improve the quality of the finished product of oral liquid filling.

[0030] The following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0031] like Figures 1 to 10 As shown, the present invention provides an oral liquid line conveying and filling device, comprising a base frame 1, a fixed valve cylinder 2, a lifting frame 3, a rotatable rotating frame 4 and a fixed-point transmission system;
[0032] Two vertically arranged lifting push rods 48 are installed between the lifting frame 3 and the base frame 1;
[0033] The base frame 1 is provided with loading and unloading stations, gas injection stations, heating stations and pouring stations in a clockwise direction. The rotating frame 4 is equipped with four frequency conversion systems. Each frequency conversion system is connected to a bottle holder 5 that can vibrate up and down and alternately rotate forward and reverse. The vibration frequency and vibration stroke of the bottle holder 5 change cyclically.
[0034] The bottle holder 5 is used for positioning and installing the oral liquid bottle. The specifications of the bottle holder 5 are adapted to the specifications of the oral liquid bottle to be filled.
[0035] During conveying and filling, the oral liquid bottles are conveyed and loaded and unloaded on the bottle holder 5 by an external manipulator;
[0036] In actual production, the specifications of the bottle holder 5 and the proportions and specifications of the response structure in this device should be customized according to the specifications of the actual oral liquid bottle;
[0037] The fixed-point transmission system includes two motors 20 mounted on the base frame 1. The output shaft end of one motor 20 is fixedly connected to the rotating frame 4. A gear shaft 21 is rotatably mounted on the rotating frame 4. A first synchronous toothed belt is installed between the output shaft end of the other motor 20 and the gear shaft 21. A driving ring gear 22 is installed on the gear shaft 21. A fixed transmission shaft 23 is rotatably mounted on the base frame 1 and corresponds to the position of the pouring station. A linkage gear 24 is installed on the fixed transmission shaft 23 and meshes with the driving ring gear 22.
[0038] During the operation of the oral liquid line conveying and filling equipment, the fixed-point transmission system plays a key transmission role. Two motors 20 work together. One motor 20 drives the turret 4 to rotate, so that the bottle holder 5 installed on the turret 4 can pass through the loading and unloading station, gas injection station, heating station and filling station in a set time sequence or interval period, realizing the orderly flow of oral liquid bottles. The other motor 20 drives the gear shaft 21 to rotate through the first synchronous toothed belt. The active ring gear 22 on the gear shaft 21 meshes with the linkage gear 24 on the fixed transmission shaft 23. When the turret 4 rotates to the filling station, this meshing transmission can accurately transmit power to the corresponding components to ensure the stable progress of the filling work.
[0039] The fixed-point transmission system of the present invention improves the stability and accuracy of transmission through precise gear meshing and synchronous toothed belt transmission, making the connection between various workstations smoother, greatly improving the filling efficiency and quality, and reducing the defective rate;
[0040] The frequency conversion system includes an excitation frame 25 slidably connected to the rotating frame 4, a first straight shaft 26, a second straight shaft 27 and an excitation screw 28 rotatably connected to the rotating frame 4. The bottom end of the first straight shaft 26 is equipped with an internal gear 29 that meshes with the linkage gear 24. The excitation frame 25 is rotatably equipped with a first hollow shaft 30 and a second hollow shaft 31. The first hollow shaft 30 is linked to the first straight shaft 26, and the second straight shaft 27 is linked to the second hollow shaft 31.
[0041] The first hollow shaft 30 is internally provided with a through-groove with both ends open and slidably connected to the first straight shaft 26. The second hollow shaft 31 is internally provided with a guide groove with a bottom end open and slidably connected to the second straight shaft 27. The cross-sections of the through-groove, the guide groove, the first straight shaft 26, and the second straight shaft 27 are all regular hexagons.
[0042] A high-frequency sector gear 32 and a low-frequency sector gear 33 are mounted on the first hollow shaft 30, respectively. Two symmetrically arranged toothless transmission sections are provided on the first hollow shaft 30 at positions corresponding to the high-frequency sector gear 32 and the low-frequency sector gear 33. Two frequency conversion gears 34 are mounted on the second hollow shaft 31, and the two frequency conversion gears 34 are meshed with the high-frequency sector gear 32 and the low-frequency sector gear 33, respectively.
[0043] The center angle corresponding to the toothed meshing section on the high-frequency sector gear 32 is 190°, the center angle corresponding to the toothed meshing section on the low-frequency sector gear 33 is 140°, and the center angles corresponding to the two toothless transmission sections are both 15°. The high-frequency sector gear 32 and the low-frequency sector gear 33 have the same radius, and the two frequency conversion gears 34 have the same radius. The radius of the high-frequency sector gear 32 is 12 times the radius of the frequency conversion gear 34.
[0044] A second synchronous toothed belt is connected between the second straight shaft 27 and the exciting screw 28, which is in transmission connection with the exciting frame 25. A supporting shaft 35 is rotatably mounted on the exciting frame 25. A third synchronous toothed belt is connected between the second hollow shaft 31 and the supporting shaft 35. The supporting shaft 35 is fixedly connected to the bottle holder 5. Steering torsion springs 36 are provided at the rotational connection between the exciting screw 28 and the rotating frame 4 and at the rotational connection between the second straight shaft 27 and the rotating frame 4.
[0045] When the turret 4 rotates to the pouring station, the linkage gear 24 on the fixed transmission shaft 23 in the fixed-point transmission system meshes with the internal gear 29 at the bottom end of the first straight shaft 26, thereby driving the first straight shaft 26 to rotate. Since the first straight shaft 26 is linked with the first hollow shaft 30, the first hollow shaft 30 also rotates accordingly. A high-frequency fan gear 32 and a low-frequency fan gear 33 are installed on the first hollow shaft 30, and a toothless transmission section is provided between them. The two frequency conversion gears 34 on the second hollow shaft 31 are meshed and connected with the high-frequency fan gear 32 and the low-frequency fan gear 33 respectively. As the first hollow shaft 30 rotates, the high-frequency fan gear 32 and the low-frequency fan gear 33 alternately mesh with the variable frequency gears. The frequency gear 34 is engaged, driving the second hollow shaft 31 to rotate, and the second hollow shaft 31 drives the supporting shaft 35 to rotate through the third synchronous toothed belt, thereby rotating the bottle holder 5; at the same time, the second straight shaft 27 is linked with the second hollow shaft 31, and the second straight shaft 27 drives the exciting screw 28 to rotate through the second synchronous toothed belt, and the exciting screw 28 is transmission-connected to the exciting frame 25, so that the exciting frame 25 slides on the rotating frame 4. Since the rotating connection between the exciting screw 28 and the rotating frame 4 and the rotating connection between the second straight shaft 27 and the rotating frame 4 are both provided with a steering torsion spring 36, this enables the bottle holder 5 to achieve reciprocating vibration up and down and alternating forward and reverse rotation, and the vibration frequency and vibration stroke change cyclically;
[0046] The steering torsion spring 36 is made of aviation-grade spring steel to avoid fatigue fracture under high-frequency vibration;
[0047] This solution solves the problems of uneven liquid distribution and easy generation of bubbles during the filling process of oral liquid bottles in the prior art. Compared with the prior art, this frequency conversion system makes the vibration of the bottle holder 5 more diversified through the transmission mode of alternating high and low frequencies, which can better adapt to the characteristics of different oral liquids. When vibrating at high frequencies, the oral liquid can be quickly filled into every corner of the bottle body, thereby improving the filling speed; when vibrating at low frequencies, it helps to expel bubbles in the liquid, making the filling more dense. At the same time, the alternating forward and reverse rotation of the bottle holder 5 can further promote the uniform distribution of the liquid, greatly improving the filling quality, reducing the defective rate, and improving production efficiency.
[0048] An elastic pressure frame 6 is slidably mounted on the lifting frame 3 and corresponding to the position of each bottle holder 5. A spring 7 limited by the lifting frame 3 is mounted on the top surface of the elastic pressure frame 6. A follower rotary seat 8 is rotatably mounted on the elastic pressure frame 6.
[0049] When the oral liquid bottle is installed, the follower rotary seat 8 presses the oral liquid bottle, and the rotation of the oral liquid bottle drives the follower rotary seat 8 to rotate;
[0050] A set of suction holes 9 are provided in the follower rotary seat 8. A perfusion shaft 10 is rotatably mounted on the inner wall of the follower rotary seat 8. A plurality of perfusion tubes 12 are mounted at the bottom of the perfusion shaft 10. Each perfusion tube 12 has a plurality of spray holes 13. A shear shaft 11 is rotatably mounted on the inner wall of the perfusion shaft 10. The shear shaft 11 rotates coaxially with the perfusion shaft 10 in the opposite direction.
[0051] The elastic pressure frame 6 is rotatably mounted with a counter-transmission shaft 38 and a differential shaft 39, and a counter-transmission shaft 38 is mounted with a counter-transmission bevel gear. The follower rotary seat 8 and the perfusion shaft 10 are both mounted with a first bevel gear. The two first bevel gears are transmission-connected with the counter-transmission bevel gear. The two first bevel gears are respectively arranged on both sides of the counter-transmission bevel gear. A differential bevel gear is mounted on the differential shaft 39. The perfusion shaft 10 and the differential shaft 39 are both mounted with a first differential bevel gear. The two first differential bevel gears are orthogonally meshed. The shear shaft 11 and the differential shaft 39 are both mounted with a second differential bevel gear. The two second differential bevel gears are orthogonally meshed. The radius of the first differential bevel gear is different from that of the second differential bevel gear.
[0052] The transmission structure of the reverse transmission shaft 38 and the differential shaft 39 on the elastic pressure frame 6 plays an important role in the oral liquid line conveying and filling process. When the follower rotary seat 8 rotates, the infusion shaft 10 is driven to rotate in the opposite direction through the reverse bevel gear. At the same time, the differential shaft 39, through the meshing of the first differential bevel gear and the second differential bevel gear, causes the shear shaft 11 and the infusion shaft 10 to rotate coaxially and in the opposite direction.
[0053] During the filling process, the rotation of the filling shaft 10 can drive the filling tube 12 to rotate, so that the oral liquid is sprayed more evenly into the oral liquid bottle, and the reverse rotation of the shearing shaft 11 enables the paddle 14 installed on the shearing shaft 11 to shear the oral liquid, further reducing bubbles in the oral liquid. At the same time, due to the different radii of the first differential bevel gear and the second differential bevel gear, different speed differences can be achieved to better meet different filling requirements.
[0054] A paddle 14 is installed on the shear shaft 11 at a position corresponding to the bottom of the perfusion pipe 12, and a bubble removal float 15 is sleeved on the perfusion shaft 10 at a position corresponding to the top of the perfusion pipe 12. The bubble removal float 15 can slide on the perfusion shaft 10 and rotate synchronously with the perfusion shaft 10;
[0055] The de-bubble float plate 15 is provided with a group of air permeable strip holes 37 distributed in a circumferential array. The bottom surface of the de-bubble float plate 15 is provided with a plurality of groups of protrusions. The paddle 14 is made of silicone and is evenly distributed with micropores. The perfusion shaft 10 is provided with a plurality of transmission guide bars. The inner wall of the de-bubble float plate 15 is provided with a transmission guide groove corresponding to each transmission guide bar, which is slidably connected to the transmission guide bar.
[0056] During the oral liquid line conveying and filling process, the bubble removal float plate 15 and the paddle 14 structure can effectively eliminate bubbles in the oral liquid. When the infusion shaft 10 rotates, the bubble removal float plate 15 rotates synchronously with the infusion shaft 10 through the transmission guide bar and can slide on the infusion shaft 10. The air permeable strip holes 37 on the bubble removal float plate 15 can allow bubbles to be discharged smoothly. The convex particles on the bottom surface can stir the oral liquid during the rotation process, further destroying bubbles.
[0057] At the same time, during the rotation of the silica gel blade 14 mounted on the shear shaft 11, the micropores on its surface can absorb and break the bubbles. The reverse rotation of the blade 14 and the perfusion shaft 10 makes it easier to eliminate the bubbles under the action of both.
[0058] The interior of the fixed valve cylinder 2 is provided with a perfusion chamber 16, an air injection chamber 17 and a negative pressure chamber 18 which are isolated from each other. The nozzle 13 is connected with the perfusion chamber 16 at the perfusion station and with the air injection chamber 17 at the air injection station. The suction hole 9 is connected with the negative pressure chamber 18 at the perfusion station and the air injection station. An electric heating block 19 is installed on the base frame 1 at the position corresponding to the heating station.
[0059] The heating temperature of the electric heating block 19 is 50°C ± 2°C;
[0060] The electric heating block 19 is controlled by a temperature sensor and PLC closed loop;
[0061] Before the perfusion operation, the electric heating block 19 heats the oral liquid bottle to reduce the viscosity of the liquid and improve the fluidity of the liquid by increasing the temperature inside the bottle, so that the liquid passes through the perfusion tube 12 and the nozzle 13 more smoothly, ensuring the stability and accuracy of the perfusion, avoiding problems such as poor perfusion and dripping, and improving efficiency and quality;
[0062] At the same time, it can reduce the temperature difference between the bottle and the liquid, reduce the risk of bottle breakage or changes in liquid properties caused by temperature shock, protect the integrity of the bottle and ensure the quality of the liquid. In addition, the appropriate bottle temperature can also improve the surface tension and interfacial properties of the liquid, allowing it to better adhere to the bottle wall, reduce bubble generation and aggregation, create favorable conditions for the subsequent defoaming process, and further improve the quality of the finished oral liquid filling product;
[0063] An inner flow channel connected to the nozzle hole 13 is fixedly opened inside the injection shaft 10, and the axis of the nozzle hole 13 is perpendicular to the axis of the injection shaft 10. An outer ring cavity 40 is fixedly opened inside the elastic pressure frame 6, and the outer ring cavity 40 is rotatably connected to the inner flow channel. An upper valve hole 41 and a lower valve hole 42 are respectively opened inside the fixed valve cylinder 2 at positions corresponding to the injection station and the gas injection station. The two upper valve holes 41 are respectively connected to the injection station and the gas injection station, and the two lower valve holes 42 are both connected to the negative pressure chamber 18. A movable valve cylinder 43 is rotatably sleeved on the fixed valve cylinder 2;
[0064] A rotating sealing ring is provided between the movable valve cylinder (43) and the fixed valve cylinder (2);
[0065] A first corrugated metal coupling 44 is connected between the outer ring cavity 40 and the movable valve cylinder 43. The first corrugated metal coupling 44 is adapted to communicate with the upper valve hole 41. An air suction ring 45 is rotatably sleeved on the movable rotary seat 8 and corresponds to a position outside the air suction hole 9. A second corrugated metal coupling 46 is connected between the air suction ring 45 and the movable valve cylinder 43. The second corrugated metal coupling 46 is adapted to communicate with the lower valve hole 42.
[0066] The second corrugated metal connecting pipe 46 is equipped with a one-way exhaust valve, through which the second corrugated metal connecting pipe 46 can only discharge gas in one direction;
[0067] The perfusion chamber 16 is connected to a liquid inlet connector, the gas injection chamber 17 is connected to a gas injection connector, the gas injection connector is fixedly connected to the argon storage tank, a vacuum pump 47 is installed on the base frame 1, and the vacuum generating port of the vacuum pump 47 is connected to the negative pressure chamber 18.
[0068] The fixed valve cylinder 2 and the pipeline connection structure realize the functions of perfusion, gas injection and negative pressure suction during the oral liquid line conveying and filling process. At the perfusion station, the inner flow channel inside the perfusion shaft 10 is connected to the perfusion chamber 16 of the fixed valve cylinder 2 through the outer ring cavity 40 and the first corrugated metal connecting pipe 44. The oral liquid enters the perfusion chamber 16 through the liquid inlet joint and is then injected into the oral liquid bottle through the nozzle 13. At the gas injection station, the nozzle 13 is connected to the gas injection chamber 17 through the same pipeline connection method. Argon gas enters the gas injection chamber 17 through the gas injection joint and is then injected into the oral liquid bottle, playing a protective and isolating role.
[0069] During gas injection, the gas injection rate, gas injection flow rate and gas injection pressure of the gas injection connector are greater than the suction rate of the negative pressure chamber 18. During gas injection, the negative pressure chamber 18 is used to absorb excess air. After the specified gas injection time, the gas injection connector is automatically closed.
[0070] At the same time, at the filling station and the gas injection station, the suction hole 9 in the follower seat 8 is connected to the negative pressure chamber 18 of the fixed valve cylinder 2 through the suction ring 45 and the second corrugated metal connecting pipe 46. The vacuum pump 47 generates negative pressure through the negative pressure chamber 18 to suck out the air and excess gas in the oral liquid bottle, thereby ensuring the quality of filling;
[0071] In the prior art, there are problems such as unclear separation of the filling, gas injection and suction functions and gas leakage. However, the fixed valve cylinder 2 and pipeline connection structure of the present invention achieve precise control of functions through the mutually isolated filling chamber 16, gas injection chamber 17 and negative pressure chamber 18, as well as reasonable pipeline connection, thereby avoiding gas leakage and improving the safety and stability of filling.
[0072] The first corrugated metal coupling tube 44 and the second corrugated metal coupling tube 46 are both 316L stainless steel.
[0073] The working principle and use process of the present invention:
[0074] The working process of the oral liquid line conveying and filling equipment of the present invention is as follows: first, the bottle holder 5 and related structures are customized according to the specifications of the oral liquid bottle, the oral liquid bottle is placed on the bottle holder 5 with an external manipulator, the liquid inlet and gas injection joints are connected and the vacuum pump 47 is turned on, and the two motors 20 of the fixed-point transmission system cooperate to rotate the rotating frame 4, and the bottle holder 5 passes through each station in turn. At the heating station, the electric heating block 19 heats the oral liquid bottle to reduce the viscosity of the liquid, reduce the temperature difference, and improve the characteristics of the liquid. When it reaches the filling station, the linkage gear 24 drives the first straight shaft 26 to rotate the first hollow shaft 30, and the high-frequency and low-frequency fan gears 33 alternately rotate with the frequency conversion gear 34. The engagement allows the bottle holder 5 to rotate, vibrate and rotate forward and reverse to promote liquid filling and uniform distribution. During infusion, the oral liquid is injected into the bottle through the infusion chamber 16, the infusion tube 12 and the nozzle 13. The infusion shaft 10 and the shear shaft 11 rotate in opposite directions, the paddle 14 shears, and the bubble removal float 15 and the paddle 14 eliminate bubbles. At the same time, the vacuum pump 47 sucks out the gas in the bottle through the negative pressure chamber 18. At the gas injection station, argon gas is injected into the bottle for protection and isolation. The vacuum pump 47 also sucks out excess gas. Finally, at the loading and unloading station, the robot completes the unloading and loading of new bottles, starting a new round of processes. The various components work together to improve the filling efficiency and quality and reduce the defective rate.
