Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of paper tableware testing technology, and in particular to a paper tableware strength testing device. Background Technology
[0002] As a mainstream paper tableware, the strength of the sidewalls and bottom of paper bowls is a core quality indicator that directly affects their performance. Currently, paper bowl strength testing mostly uses manual single-point testing or simple mechanical testing of a single part. The testing process is fragmented, requires manual handling of paper bowls, is inefficient, and is difficult to adapt to large-scale production.
[0003] The rigid detection components of the existing detection device cannot adapt to the side walls of paper bowls with different inclination curvatures. Poor fit can easily lead to non-detectable damage to the paper bowls and distortion of detection data. The feeding process cannot separate stacked paper bowls one by one, which can easily cause problems such as excess material and jamming. In addition, it lacks a material counting function, and the detection data cannot be traced. The discharge process does not have a classification structure, and qualified and unqualified products are discharged together, requiring manual secondary sorting, which increases costs and errors.
[0004] Meanwhile, traditional testing devices often employ multiple independently driven motors, resulting in high energy consumption. Furthermore, their paper bowl detection and positioning accuracy is poor, requiring manual alignment assistance. Overall, their automation and testing precision are insufficient, failing to meet the industry's demands for efficient, accurate, and energy-saving testing. Therefore, providing a paper tableware strength testing device is a problem that urgently needs to be solved by those skilled in the art. Summary of the Invention

[0018] The beneficial effects of this invention are:
[0019] This invention utilizes a feeding assembly:
[0020] 1) To achieve continuous and orderly feeding of paper bowls, the stacked paper bowls can be separated one by one and accurately transported to the inspection station through the cooperation of multiple partitions, effectively avoiding the problems of excess material and jamming, and improving the stability and continuity of the feeding process.
[0021] 2) Combining the dual detection of a weighing sensor and an infrared sensor, the weighing sensor can identify the arrival status of a single paper bowl, distinguishing between empty, excess, or abnormal materials, ensuring that subsequent detection units only perform detection operations on qualified single paper bowls, thus improving detection accuracy and reliability; the infrared sensor can count the falling paper bowls in real time, interrupting the sensor signal once a paper bowl falls, achieving accurate statistics of the detected quantity, facilitating the recording and traceability of production data.
[0022] 3) The modular design of the partition cylinder and partition plate allows for flexible adjustment of the partition spacing and feeding rhythm according to the specifications and size of the paper bowl, adapting to the feeding needs of different types of paper bowls and improving the versatility and adaptability of the device.
[0023] 4) The feeding process is automated through the linkage of cylinders and sensors. The entire process of feeding, separating, conveying and counting paper bowls can be completed without manual intervention, reducing manual operation costs and improving the overall automation level and work efficiency of the detection device.
[0024] 5) The feeding station and the inspection station are precisely aligned, and the paper bowl can fall vertically into the center of the inspection position without additional positioning adjustments, simplifying the pre-inspection preparation process and further improving inspection efficiency and positioning accuracy.
[0025] This invention utilizes a strength detection component:
[0026] 1. Beneficial effects of the side strength testing unit:
[0027] 1) The opposing clamping detection structure with double-sided detection arc plates can apply uniform lateral pressure to the side surface of the paper bowl, realizing comprehensive detection of the compressive and deformation resistance of the paper bowl side wall. The detection coverage is wide and can accurately reflect the overall strength performance of the paper bowl side.
[0028] 2) The detection arc plate is equipped with a flexible contact structure of silicone pad and silicone sleeve, which can adapt to the arc shape of the paper bowl side wall and achieve flexible contact with the surface of the paper bowl. This avoids non-detection damage to the paper bowl caused by rigid contact, and ensures the uniformity of pressure transmission, thereby improving the authenticity and effectiveness of the detection data.
[0029] 3) The four-point pressure sensor on the detection arc plate is arranged in two ways. It can judge the clamping status of the paper bowl through multi-point contact feedback. The clamping is confirmed to be in place only when all four points are in effective contact, avoiding detection errors caused by clamping offset or tilting, and further improving the accuracy of side strength detection.
[0030] 4) The rotary cylinder can drive the detection arc plate to adjust the angle, which can adapt to the side wall shape of paper bowls with different inclination and taper. The side strength test of paper bowls of various specifications can be completed without changing the detection parts, which greatly improves the adaptability and detection flexibility of the device.
[0031] 5) The combination of horizontal and vertical adjustment cylinders can realize the position adjustment of the detection arc plate in the horizontal and vertical directions, which can accurately connect the feeding station and the bottom detection station of the paper bowl, and simultaneously complete the paper bowl picking, positioning and transfer actions, realizing the integrated connection of feeding, detection and transfer, simplifying the device structure and process.
[0032] 2. Beneficial effects of the bowl bottom strength testing unit:
[0033] 1) The top-down pressure plate detection structure can apply vertical downward pressure to the bottom of the paper bowl, accurately simulating the stress scenario of the bottom of the paper bowl in actual use, and truly reflecting the compressive strength and anti-breakage performance of the bottom of the paper bowl.
[0034] 2) By combining the pressure data collected in real time by the pressure sensor during the pressing process, the strength threshold of the bottom of the paper bowl can be accurately determined, and the deformation and damage state of the bottom of the bowl under different pressures can be clearly identified. The test results are intuitive and accurate.
[0035] 3) The miniature camera on the upper mounting plate can collect image information of the bowl bottom detection process in real time, assisting in monitoring the deformation and cracking of the paper bowl bottom, realizing dual verification of pressure data and visual inspection, and improving the comprehensiveness and reliability of the bowl bottom strength detection.
[0036] 3. Beneficial effects of transport units:
[0037] 1) The dual conveyor belt structure design enables the sorting and discharge of paper bowls after inspection. Qualified and unqualified products are transported to their respective workstations via different conveyor belts, achieving automatic separation of qualified products and waste materials without the need for manual sorting, thus improving the automation level and sorting efficiency of the discharge process.
[0038] 2) A single servo motor drives the two conveyor belts to operate synchronously via a synchronous shaft. Only a single power source is needed to drive the two conveyor belts, which effectively reduces power consumption, lowers the energy consumption of the device, saves power resources, and ensures the synchronous operation of the two conveyor belts, avoiding paper bowl transfer deviation and jamming.
[0039] 3) The horizontal and vertical adjustment cylinders can control the forward and backward movement of the loading platform, accurately aligning it above different conveyor belts. Combined with the loading platform openings and baffle structure, the paper bowls can fall to the corresponding conveyor belt as needed, ensuring the accuracy of sorting and discharging, and avoiding the mixing of qualified products and waste materials.
[0040] 4) The inclined discharge hopper at the outlet can guide the paper cups after testing to be smoothly discharged from the main body of the machine and transported to the receiving box and waste box respectively, avoiding the accumulation of paper cups at the outlet, ensuring the smoothness of the discharge process, and further improving the continuous working capacity of the device.

[0067] Working Principle: After the device is started, the feeding assembly 2 enters the working state. The conveying cylinder 201 serves as the feeding carrier for the paper bowls. Initially, the partition plate 1 203 is in a closed state, while the other multi-layer partition plates 210 move to the left and open. The operator places the stacked paper bowls into the upper part of the conveying cylinder 201. The bottommost paper bowl falls above the partition plate 1 203. At this time, the paper bowls block the transmission and reception signals of the infrared sensor 208 on the conveying cylinder 201, and the infrared sensor 208 completes the first count. The weighing sensor 204 on the upper surface of the partition plate 1 203 collects the weight of the paper bowls in real time. After identifying that a single paper bowl is in place, it feeds back a signal to the control system, which controls the bottom partition cylinder 212 to start, pushing the corresponding partition plate 210 into the inner cavity of the conveying cylinder 201. The device moves to a closed state, creating a limit on the next layer of paper bowls. Then, the partition cylinder 205 is activated, causing the partition plate 203 to move to the left and open. A single paper bowl falls downwards under gravity. After the paper bowl leaves the detection area of the infrared sensor 208, the signal is restored. During continuous feeding, each paper bowl falls through the detection area of the infrared sensor 208. Through the cycle of signal interruption and restoration, the falling paper bowls are counted one by one, accurately counting the total number of paper bowls detected. After confirming that a single paper bowl is successfully delivered to the preset station of the strength detection component 3, the feeding and counting process of a single paper bowl is completed. Subsequently, the partition cylinder 205, partition cylinder 212, partition plate 203, and partition plate 210 operate in a cycle according to the above logic to realize continuous, batch feeding and real-time counting of paper bowls.
[0068] Before the paper bowl is conveyed to the testing station, the horizontal adjustment cylinder 303 is activated, moving the transposition mounting platform 304, connected to the vertical adjustment cylinder 302, to the left and directly below the conveying cylinder 201. This ensures that the center of the transposition mounting platform 304 is on the same vertical line as the paper bowl's falling position on the conveying cylinder 201, guaranteeing that when the partition plate 203 is opened, the paper bowl can fall precisely and vertically onto the surface of the support plate 306, achieving automatic positioning of the paper bowl. After the paper bowl is in place, the horizontal adjustment cylinder 303 is activated again, pushing the transposition mounting platform 304 directly below the bowl bottom strength testing unit, preparing for subsequent testing.
[0069] After the paper bowl is positioned, the strength detection component 3 starts working. First, the side strength detection unit performs side wall strength detection: the longitudinal adjustment cylinder 302 adjusts the longitudinal position of the transposition mounting platform 304, and the material picking cylinder 307 is activated to push the support plate 306 to form a bottom support and positioning for the paper bowl; then, the two side detection cylinders 308 are activated simultaneously, pushing the positioning mounting platform 309 closer to the side wall of the paper bowl, causing the detection arc plate 312 to gradually fit against the side wall of the paper bowl. The silicone sleeve 317 on the detection arc plate 312 contacts the surface of the side wall of the paper bowl, and the pressure sensors 314 at the four corners achieve four-point contact feedback. When all four pressure sensors 314 detect... When a valid contact signal is received, the detection arc plate 312 is confirmed to accurately and centrally clamp the side wall of the paper bowl, avoiding clamping deviation. If the paper bowl is an irregularly shaped structure with an inclined arc, the rotary cylinder 310 can drive the detection arc plate 312 to adjust its angle according to preset parameters, so that the arc of the detection arc plate 312 is perfectly matched with the inclination angle of the side wall of the paper bowl, ensuring the detection fit. After clamping in place, the detection cylinder 308 continuously applies lateral pressure, and the pressure sensor 311 collects the pressure and deformation data of the side wall in real time to complete the detection of the side strength of the paper bowl. After the detection is completed, the detection cylinder 308 resets, and the detection arc plate 312 releases the paper bowl.
[0070] After the side strength test is completed, the bottom strength test unit is activated. The second test cylinder 320 extends downward, driving the third pressure sensor 324 and the test plate 325 to move towards the bottom of the paper bowl. The test plate 325 is gradually pressed down to the surface of the bottom of the paper bowl. The third pressure sensor 324 collects the pressure value in real time during the pressing process. The miniature camera 323 on the upper mounting plate 321 simultaneously captures the deformation and cracking state of the bottom of the bowl. Through the dual feedback of pressure data and visual images, the compressive strength and breaking limit of the bottom of the paper bowl are determined, and the bottom strength test is completed. After the test is completed, the second test cylinder 320 is reset upward, and the test plate 325 is separated from the paper bowl.
[0071] After the inspection is completed, the control system determines whether the paper bowl is qualified or not based on the inspection results. The longitudinal adjustment cylinder 302 controls the shifting platform 304 to move back and forth, aligning the shifting platform 304 above the first conveyor belt structure 326 and the second conveyor belt structure 327 respectively. Then, the material picking cylinder 307 starts to pull the support plate 306 to move to the left, so that the hole in the middle of the shifting platform 304 opens. The paper bowl falls downward under the action of gravity.
