Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of automated filling process methods for energetic materials, and particularly relates to an automated filling and sealing device for irregularly shaped filling boxes. Background Technology
[0002] In the fields of pharmaceutical packaging and explosives production, the filling and sealing of irregularly shaped containers (such as containers with multi-curved structures, irregular openings, or asymmetrical geometric shapes) has long relied on manual operation, which is labor-intensive, has poor controllability in the filling and sealing process, low efficiency, and high labor costs.
[0003] The traditional process mainly involves: manually handling irregularly shaped boxes, manually orienting and arranging the boxes, manually weighing the filling materials, manually filling, manually applying glue to the opening, clamping and sealing, and manually sewing. A more detailed process is as follows: First, the material container holding the filling box is manually moved to the loading station. Then, the box is removed and manually adjusted before being placed into the fixture. The fixture with the box is then transferred to the filling station via the conveyor line. The filling process involves manually inserting a filling funnel into the filling opening of the box. During filling, the box needs to be shaken to allow the filling material to enter. The amount of filling material varies for different products or batches. For larger batches, the box is filled more fully, and the filling material height is close to the neck of the filling opening. Therefore, when the filling is almost finished, the funnel needs to be slowly pulled out while vibrating to allow the filling material to descend slowly; otherwise, the filling material will spill out. The gluing and clamping process involves manually applying a ring of glue to the filling opening with a brush, pinching the opening closed, clamping it, and placing it on the box holder for curing. The sewing process involves manually operating a sewing machine to sew the filling opening shut.
[0004] For filling irregularly shaped material containers, existing technologies mostly employ methods such as large-opening filling followed by extrusion plastic shrinkage and sealing, or pneumatic conveying tube filling. These technologies suffer from drawbacks such as extruding the filling material, the filling material being heated, large errors in filling weight, and low yield of finished products. In special industries, the filling of energetic materials is particularly dangerous.
[0005] To address the issues of manual operation throughout the entire process and the limitations of existing technologies, an automated filling and sealing method for irregularly shaped boxes with minimal human intervention is proposed. Summary of the Invention
[0006] The purpose of this invention is to provide an automated filling and sealing device for irregularly shaped boxes. By decoupling the current manual production process and applying the design concept of automation, a device suitable for automated filling and sealing of irregularly shaped boxes is developed and a new process flow method is formed, thereby reducing the intensity of manual labor, labor costs, and improving production efficiency.
[0007] The technical solution to achieve the purpose of this invention is: an automated filling and sealing device for irregularly shaped material boxes, including an automatic feeding module for irregularly shaped material boxes, used to transfer the irregularly shaped material boxes between the vibrating discharge port and the feeding module;
[0008] An automatic material feeding module is used to lift and dump materials;
[0009] The automatic weighing module is located below the automatic material feeding module and is used to weigh materials; one small hopper corresponds to two sets of conveyor channels and vibration exciter, thereby improving weighing efficiency.
[0010] The automatic filling module, located at the end of the automatic weighing module, is used to remove the irregularly shaped material box from the conveyor module, fill it with material, and then send the irregularly shaped material box back to the conveyor module.
[0011] The automatic gluing module, located at the end of the automatic filling module, applies glue to the filling opening of the irregularly shaped material box to prevent energetic materials from leaking out of the material box when it is turned over during subsequent sewing.
[0012] The automatic curing module, located at the end of the automatic glue application module, is used to cure the irregularly shaped filling box after glue application.
[0013] The automatic stitching module, located at the end of the automatic curing module, is used to stitch the filling opening of the irregularly shaped material box;
[0014] The automatic detection module, located at the end of the automatic sewing module, is used to detect the qualification of the irregularly shaped material box after sewing.
[0015] The conveyor module (09) runs through the entire shaped filling and sealing equipment for the shaped filling box, and is used for the shaped filling box to move between stations such as automatic feeding, automatic filling and automatic gluing.
[0016] The significant advantages of this invention compared to existing technologies are:
[0017] (1) In view of the irregular shape of the irregular material box and the special characteristics of the small opening of the material box, the material box is fed in an orderly manner by using the irregular fitting tooling through automated design, which solves the problem of orderly feeding in the automated production process of irregular material boxes. In addition, by quickly changing the tooling, it can be compatible with material boxes of different shapes, and improve the utilization efficiency.
[0018] (2) To address the problems of material leakage and alignment difficulties during rapid filling of small-opening material boxes, an automated design is adopted, using a vision camera for positioning, a servo module for alignment, and a support mechanism to fix the opening, thereby improving the efficiency and accuracy of filling.
[0019] (3) In view of the problem of dense personnel and high risk in the special industry of filling energetic materials, the technical solution of the present invention adopts a design with fewer personnel in the operation process. By using conveyor belts, servo modules and other transfer methods, the number of operators in the production process is reduced by more than 80%, which greatly improves the safety of personnel in the production process.

[0033] The terminology used in this invention is for illustrative purposes only and is not intended to limit the invention. The following description, in conjunction with the appendix, further clarifies this concept. Figure 1-11 The following is a detailed description of some embodiments of the present invention.

[0035] The special-shaped material box automatic feeding module 01 includes two vibrating discs 101, two buffer hoppers 102, a rotary elevator 103, a special-shaped material box barrel 104, a flipping clamping jaw 105, a linear vibrator 106, a feeding servo module 107, a suction cup assembly 108, a frame 109, and a vibration sorting and guiding mechanism 110.
[0036] The vibrating discs 101 and the buffer hoppers 102 are fixedly installed on the frame 109 by screws. The buffer hoppers 102 and the vibrating discs 101 are installed parallel to the side of the frame 109. The elevator 103 is placed on the side of the buffer hopper 102. The special-shaped material box barrel 104 is clamped and fixed on the elevator 103 by the flipping clamping jaw 105. The linear vibrator 106 is installed at the discharge port of the vibrating disc 101. The feeding servo module 107 is arranged at the discharge port of the linear vibrator 106. The suction cup assembly 108 is installed on the feeding servo module 107. The vibration sorting and guiding mechanism 110 is installed at the outlet position of the vibrating disc 101.
[0037] The vibrating disc 101 consists of a vibrator, a hopper, and a chassis. The medicine boxes are rotated and vibrated out one by one through vibration, and the medicine boxes vibrated out are gradually sorted under the guiding mechanism 110.
[0038] The flipping clamping jaw 105 consists of a clamping cylinder, a claw hand, etc., and is mainly used for fixing during the lifting and flipping process of the special-shaped material box barrel.
[0039] The suction cup assembly 108 consists of vacuum suction cups and a suction cup holder. The suction cups are arranged in a "product" shape and are used to adsorb and transfer the special-shaped material box onto or off the conveyor line.
[0040] The rotary elevator 103 is mainly used to lift the barrel to a certain height and rotate it to the directly above the buffer hopper 102.
[0041] The feeding servo module 107 consists of an X, Y, and Z axis module and is used to transfer the special-shaped material box between the vibrating discharge port and the conveyor line module 09.
[0042] The special-shaped empty material box in this embodiment is a flat special-shaped material box. The special-shaped empty material box is in the special-shaped material box loading tooling 405, keeping its loading port facing directly upward, and the loaded material is an energetic material;
[0043] Its workflow is as follows: the rotary elevator 103 lifts the irregularly shaped material box 104, the flipping clamping claw 105 tilts the irregularly shaped material box 104 into the buffer hopper 102, the vibrating plate 101 vibrates the irregularly shaped empty material boxes out in an orderly manner, the straight vibrator 106 discharges the irregularly shaped material boxes in a directional manner, and the suction cup assembly 108, driven by the feeding servo module 107, accurately adsorbs the material boxes and places them on the conveyor line module 09.
[0044] The automatic material feeding module 02 includes a material hopper 201, a support frame 202, a rotating clamping claw 203, a material bucket 204, a cover assembly 205, and a material rotating elevator 206.
[0045] The support frame 202 is installed on the material rotary elevator 206 and moves up and down and rotates under the drive of the material rotary elevator 206; the rotary clamping claw 203 is installed on the material rotary elevator 206, and the material bucket 204 is clamped by the rotary clamping claw 203 and installed on the support frame 202; the cylinder in the cover assembly 205 is installed on the support frame 202 and is located directly above the opening of the material bucket 204; the cover in the cover assembly 205 is installed on the push rod of the cylinder and is used to move up and down under the action of the cylinder, thereby realizing the opening and closing of the material bucket opening; the material hopper 201 is arranged on the side of the material rotary elevator 206.
[0046] The workflow is as follows: the operator places the material bucket 204 containing the material on the support frame 202, the rotating clamping claw 203 clamps the material bucket 204, the cover 205 seals the opening of the material bucket under the action of the cylinder, the material rotating elevator 206 lifts the material, and when it reaches a certain height, the material bucket is flipped over and the material is poured into the material hopper 201.
[0047] The automatic weighing module 03 includes a clamp valve 301, a conveyor 302, a vibration exciter 303, a small hopper 304, a filling pot 305, a weighing system 306, a servo motor 307, and a support platform 308.
[0048] The clamp valve 301 is fixedly mounted on the support platform 308, and is installed directly below the material hopper 201 via a flange. The conveyor 302 is located between the clamp valve 301 and the vibration exciter 303. The vibration exciter 303 is fixedly mounted on the support platform 308 with screws. The small hopper 304 is installed below one end of the outlet of the conveyor 302, and the filling pot 305 is installed below the small hopper 304. The weighing system 306 is located below the filling pot 305 and is fixedly mounted on the support platform 308 with screws. The servo motor 307 is fixedly mounted on the support platform 308 with screws, and the motor output shaft is connected to the clamp valve 301 to control the opening and closing of the clamp valve.
[0049] For weighing energetic materials requiring high precision and fast cycle time, this invention employs a conveying and weighing method that switches between coarse and fine vibration. Specifically, a conveyor 302 and a vibration exciter 303 form a vibrating feeding unit, with two vibrating feeding units corresponding to a small hopper 304. When the required material weight is X, to improve weighing efficiency, one vibrating unit can rapidly feed 95% of the required weight with a larger amplitude and frequency. The remaining 5% is then fed slowly by the other vibrating feeding unit with a smaller amplitude and frequency, meeting the requirements for high-precision weighing. This design of switching between vibrating units significantly improves weighing efficiency and meets the demands of fast-paced automated production.
[0050] The pinch valve 301 addresses the risk of explosion posed by energetic materials under pressure, shearing, or friction. To mitigate this risk, the present invention employs a normally closed pneumatic stepless speed-regulating pinch valve. By utilizing the characteristic that the metal structure does not directly contact the energetic material during the opening and closing process of the pinch valve, the safety of the production process is improved.
[0051] In this invention, a vibration exciter 303 is designed to be combined with a conveyor 302 for conveying. The vibration exciter 303 is pneumatically driven to generate a certain amplitude and frequency. Through vibration, the material is conveyed, thereby reducing the risk of material being squeezed by the equipment during the conveying process.
[0052] The weighing system 306 includes a torsion ring explosion-proof load cell, a support module, and a signal processing module. It is used to weigh energetic materials that fall into the filling pot 305 via the vibrating feeding unit. When the weight of the material in the filling pot 305 is close to the required weight, a stop signal is sent and the vibration exciter 303 stops conveying.
[0053] Its working process is as follows: the servo motor 307 is controlled to rotate, opening the clamp valve 301 to control the amount of material flowing out. The material in the material hopper 201 flows out through the clamp valve 301 and falls onto the conveyor 302. The material on the conveyor 302 is conveyed to the small hopper 304 and falls into the filling pot 305 under the vibration of the vibrating exciter 303. The filling pot 305 is placed on the weighing system 306. When the material weight meets the requirements, the clamp valve 301 and the vibrator 303 stop sequentially, completing the weighing.
[0054] The automatic filling module 04 includes a clamping cylinder 401, a tilting cylinder 402, a filling funnel 403, a voice coil motor 404, a shaped material box filling fixture 405, a clamping module 406, a transfer module 407, a platform support 408, and a transfer module 409.
[0055] Clamping cylinder 401 clamps the outer periphery of filling container 305. Clamping cylinder 401 is mounted on top of tilting cylinder 402, which is fixedly mounted on transfer module 409. Filling funnel 403 is fixedly mounted on voice coil motor 404 with screws. Irregularly shaped material box filling fixture 405 is placed on platform support 408 but not fixedly connected. Clamping module 406 is fixedly mounted on transfer module 407 with screws.
[0056] The voice coil motor 404 is a special type of electromagnetically driven linear motor. Its function is to increase the material flow speed through small-displacement reciprocating linear motion.
[0057] The transfer module 407 is a pneumatic single-axis linear servo module, which is used to drive the clamping module 406 to transfer between the conveyor line 09 and the platform support 408.
[0058] The clamping module 406 consists of a telescopic cylinder, a clamping cylinder, etc. Its function is to clamp the filling fixture 405 containing the irregular material box 10 from the conveyor line 09 and place it on the platform support 408 under the drive of the transfer module 407, in preparation for filling energetic materials.
[0059] The automated process is as follows: Transfer module 407 clamps the irregularly shaped material box filling fixture 405 on conveyor module 09 offline via clamping module 406 and places it at the filling station. The outlet of filling funnel 403 is inserted into the filling port of irregularly shaped material box 10 under the action of telescopic cylinder. Clamping cylinder 401 clamps the weighed filling pot 305, and flipping cylinder 402 pours the material in the filling pot into filling funnel 403. The control program turns on voice coil motor 404, which is used to vibrate and accelerate the filling speed of filling funnel 403 and prevent material bridging (i.e., prevent material from being squeezed, agglomerated, and blocked in filling funnel) until filling is completed. Then the voice coil motor stops vibrating, and transfer module 407 sends the filled irregularly shaped material box 10 together with irregularly shaped material box filling fixture 405 back to conveyor module 09 via clamping module 406.
[0060] The automatic glue application module 05 includes a glue bucket 501, a brush 502, a three-axis servo module 503, a vision positioning camera 504, a glue bucket bracket 505, a module bracket 506, a brush bracket 507, a camera bracket 508, and a non-standard material box filling fixture 405.
[0061] The module bracket 506 is located on the side of the conveyor module 09. The three-axis servo module 503 is mounted on the module bracket 506 for implementation. The camera bracket 508 and the brush bracket 507 are fixed on the three-axis servo module 503. The glue bucket bracket 505 is fixed on the side of the conveyor module 09, and the glue bucket 501 is placed on the glue bucket bracket 505. The brush 502 is fixedly mounted on the brush bracket 507 by bolts. The vision positioning camera 504 is mounted and fixed on the three-axis servo module 503 by the camera bracket 508. The three-axis servo module is fixedly mounted on the module bracket 506.
[0062] The three-axis servo module 503 consists of X, Y, and Z axis linear servo modules, used to drive the brush to complete the glue application process.
[0063] The visual positioning camera 504 consists of a camera and a light source. It is used to identify the position of the filling port of the irregularly shaped material box 10, form position coordinates, and guide the three-axis servo module 503 to drive the brush 502 to apply glue.
[0064] The workflow is as follows: Conveyor line 09 transports the filled irregularly shaped material boxes to the gluing station. Vision positioning camera 504 detects the position of the filling opening of the filled material box and generates position coordinates. Based on these coordinates, the three-axis servo module 503 first drives brush 502 to apply glue to the glue tank 501. The glued brush, under program control, then applies glue to the filling opening of the irregularly shaped material box, completing the gluing process. This ensures that the material box is flipped during subsequent sewing, preventing energetic materials from leaking out.
[0065] The automatic curing module 06 includes a temperature sensor 601, a telescopic cylinder 602, a mold temperature controller 603, a curing module 604, a shaped material box after gluing 605, a temperature sensor bracket 606, a curing module bracket 607, a feeding servo module 107, and a suction cup assembly 108.

The curing module 604 and the curing module bracket 607 are fixed relative to each other. The temperature sensor 601 is fixedly mounted on the temperature sensor bracket 606 by screws. The temperature sensor bracket 606 and the mold temperature controller 603 are both fixedly mounted on the curing module bracket 607. The curing module 604 is arranged and mounted above the mold temperature controller 603.
[0067] Temperature sensor 601 is a non-contact temperature sensor used to measure the curing temperature in real time, preventing uncertain temperature parameters from affecting the curing quality.
[0068] The 603 mold temperature controller is an oil-based mold temperature controller used to provide a certain curing temperature for irregularly shaped molded boxes after gluing, thereby improving curing efficiency.
[0069] Its workflow is as follows: the feeding servo module 107 drives the suction cup assembly 108 to adsorb and transfer the glued irregular-shaped material box 605 to the mold temperature controller 603 and fix the position of the glued irregular-shaped material box 605. The telescopic cylinder 602 squeezes the opening of the material box. The mold temperature controller 603 heats the curing fixture to a certain temperature. The temperature sensor 601 detects the curing temperature in real time to achieve the best curing efficiency.
[0070] The automatic sewing module 07 includes a docking module 701, a sewing and feeding module 702, a special sewing machine 703, a support platform 704, a material collection box 705, and a high-speed conveyor chain 706.

[0080] The automated process is as follows: the detection suction cup assembly 803, driven by the detection servo module 802, moves the sewn irregular-shaped material box 10 to the position of the three-dimensional detection camera 801. The three-dimensional detection camera automatically detects the defects of the material box. The qualified material box continues to flow with the conveyor line, while the unqualified material box is placed in the collection box 705 and transferred off the line with the double-speed conveyor chain 706.
[0081] Conveyor module 09 is a double-layer multiple chain conveyor line used for the transfer of irregularly shaped material boxes between stations such as automatic feeding, automatic filling, and automatic gluing.
