Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of milk powder cap production, and in particular to a production apparatus for milk powder caps and its usage method. Background Technology

[0002] Milk powder caps usually refer to the lids on milk powder cans. Milk powder caps typically require production operations. After injection molding, the caps usually need to be closed and formed, making the closure process one of the key steps.

[0003] Existing milk powder cap closing equipment typically includes a frame, a closing structure, a transfer structure, and a flipping structure. These structures are all located on the frame. An external robotic arm picks up the injection-molded milk powder cap and places it inside the frame, then onto the closing structure. The closing structure closes and shapes the cap. The transfer structure then transfers the shaped cap away from the closing structure. The flipping structure receives the cap, flips it downwards to a set height, and then lowers it onto a conveyor belt for transport. The closing structure usually includes a support plate connected to the frame. The support plate supports the upper cover folding plate of the milk powder cap and is hinged to the support plate. The folding plate supports the lower cover of the milk powder cap and is used to fasten the lower cover to the upper cover. The milk powder cap is fastened by the rotation of the folding plate relative to the support plate. The support plate is provided with a contoured recess to accommodate the upper cover of the milk powder cap. The folding plate is driven by a second motor, which is connected to the folding plate to drive the folding plate to rotate. The second motor is connected to the folding plate through a belt, chain, or gear transmission. Thus, the automatic fastening of the upper and lower covers is achieved by the mutual rotation of the support plate and the folding plate of the cap-closing structure.

[0004] However, in practical applications, the four cap-closing structures are usually installed independently on the frame and are mounted with multiple sets of bolts. When daily maintenance of multiple cap-closing structures is required, or when the entire cap-closing structure needs to be replaced due to product model changes, operators often have to perform tedious disassembly and assembly operations on each cap-closing structure one by one. Due to the large number of cap-closing structures and the limited installation space inside the frame, this method of disassembly and assembly is not only inconvenient and time-consuming, but also increases equipment downtime, affecting the overall maintenance efficiency, replacement efficiency, and overall flexibility of the production line. Therefore, how to provide a milk powder cap production device that can achieve rapid and complete disassembly and assembly of the cap-closing body, thereby improving maintenance and replacement efficiency, is a technical problem that urgently needs to be solved by those skilled in the art.

[0015] The present invention also provides a method of using a production device for milk powder caps, comprising the following specific steps: Step 1: When it is necessary to produce milk powder caps, the external robotic arm first grabs the formed milk powder cap from the external mold, then moves it to the top of the frame and into the frame. The milk powder cap is then placed on the cap-closing body, which then performs the cap-closing operation. During the cap-closing process, the detection head collects real-time images of the cap-closing body and the cap-closing status and compares them with preset standard images. If the detection head detects an abnormality in the structure of the cap-closing body, it sends an alarm signal to the controller. Upon receiving the alarm signal, the controller activates the alarm to sound an alarm and simultaneously stops the cap-closing body and the external robotic arm to remove the cap-closing body for inspection and maintenance. Step Two: If the detection head identifies a defect in the milk powder cap formed by a certain cap-closing body, it sends a receiving signal to the controller. Upon receiving the signal, the controller activates the second push rod corresponding to the cap-closing body. The second push rod pushes the receiving frame forward, moving it to the corresponding placement position on the flipping rack. This allows the defective milk powder cap to be placed directly into the receiving frame without affecting the normal downward placement of other normal milk powder caps onto the external conveyor belt. Simultaneously, the alarm sounds to alert the timely removal of the defective milk powder cap. If the detection head detects a defect, the gripper moves to the position of the cap-closing body via the sliding seat, grips the formed milk powder cap, and then moves it to the flipping rack for transfer. The frame grabs the milk powder cap and flips it downwards so that the cap can be placed on the external conveyor belt for transport. When the machine stops, the adjustable plate adjusts the angle of the detection head through the rotating part, and then sends a patrol command to the controller. The controller starts the servo motor, which drives the rotating shaft to rotate through the transmission part. The rotating shaft drives the rotating cylinder and the top plate to rotate through the adjusting ring, so that the adjusting frame drives the adjustable plate and the detection head to rotate at a set speed. During the rotation, the detection head collects images along the rotation path and compares them with preset images. If an abnormality is found in the internal structure of the frame or a dangerous situation is found in the surrounding environment, an emergency alarm command is sent to the controller. After receiving the emergency alarm command, the controller alarm sounds an alarm. Step 3: When the main body of the cover needs to be removed for maintenance or replacement, press the external setting button to send a start signal to the controller. After receiving the start signal, the controller controls the first push rod to start. The first push rod pulls the sliding body to move horizontally. The sliding body slides inside the auxiliary frame through the sliding part and guide rail, while driving the first moving part, the second moving part and the first locking part to move. Then, the first locking part disengages from the fixed seat, the support seat and the support frame. At this time, the position restriction on the two series plates is released. Then, lift the series plates upward, so that the series plates can drive the entire main body of the cover to be removed from the inside of the frame for operation. In addition, while the sliding body drives the sliding part to move, it drives the series part and the second locking part to move horizontally. Then, the second locking part releases the position restriction on the mounting frame, so that the mounting frame can be pulled directly out from between the first plate and the second plate to allow material to be picked up from the corresponding receiving frame. If it is not necessary to remove the receiving frame, after the mounting frame is released, no operation is required. The sliding body will then reset and lock the mounting frame again.

[0016] The technical effects and advantages of this invention are as follows: (1) The present invention utilizes a combination of a lid-closing body, a series plate, and a connecting structure. The lid-closing body is connected to the series plate, and the connecting piece enables adjacent series plates to be connected and fixed or separated from the frame at the same time. The first push rod drives the connecting piece to move automatically, which facilitates the automatic connection or separation of the series plate from the frame, so that the lid-closing body can be directly separated from the frame box. This makes it easy to remove the lid-closing body directly when it needs maintenance or replacement, without the need for staff to operate each of the four lid-closing bodies one by one. This improves the maintenance and replacement efficiency of the lid-closing body and allows for more flexible adaptation to the production needs of different types of milk powder lids, thus achieving rapid production changeover. (2) The present invention utilizes an adjustable plate, a detection head, an adjustment frame, a rotating component, a rotating mechanism, and an outlet frame in a coordinated manner. The adjustable plate supports the detection head, the adjustment frame is connected to the adjustable plate through the rotating component to adjust the angle of the detection head according to the requirements, and the outlet frame is led out from the serial plate to support the rotating mechanism and the detection head. The rotating mechanism drives the adjustment frame to rotate at a set speed and range. This facilitates image acquisition and comparison of the use of the lid-closing body when closing the milk powder lid, the closing condition of the milk powder lid, and the inspection of the internal structure of the frame and the surrounding environment when the machine is stopped. This facilitates real-time detection of the use of the lid-closing body and the closing quality of the milk powder lid, which is convenient for timely notification. At the same time, it is also convenient for inspection of the internal structure of the frame and the surrounding environment. If any abnormality occurs, it will be notified in time to improve safety. (3) The present invention utilizes a combination of a first plate, a second plate, a mounting frame, a connecting component, a receiving frame, a second push rod, a guide component, and a connecting component. The mounting frame supports the second push rod and is slidably installed between the first plate and the second plate. The second push rod pushes the receiving frame to move to below the height of the defective milk powder cap flipping frame after it is flipped, which facilitates the direct collection of defective milk powder caps without affecting the normal feeding of other normal milk powder caps. The connecting component moves with the connecting component, and when the position limitation of the connecting plate is released, the position limitation of the mounting frame is automatically released. The mounting frame can be removed as a whole as needed, which improves the ease of operation. (4) The present invention utilizes a combination of docking seat, docking frame, embedded frame, operating plate, pushing frame, mating parts and springs. The docking seat is inserted into the bottom of the gripping frame so that the bottom of the gripping frame is positioned and connected with multiple sliding seats. The docking frame locks the relative position of the gripping frame and the docking seat. The operating plate drives the docking frame to move. The pushing frame pushes the operating plate to move. The spring causes the docking frame to return to its original position after movement. This facilitates the automatic pushing of the pushing frame by the mating parts when the gripping frame is moved back to the designated position, so that multiple operating plates drive multiple docking frames to disengage from multiple docking seats at the same time. This removes the position limitation on the gripping frame, thereby improving the efficiency of gripping frame installation and disassembly and improving the ease of operation.

The mounting frame 43 is T-shaped and has a notch at the top to allow the connecting member 441 to slide inside, which is beneficial for supporting the second push rod 46. The receiving frame 45 can be moved to the height below the flipping height of the flipping rack 13 to collect defective milk powder caps. The multiple receiving frames 45 are independent of each other to collect the defective milk powder caps from the four cap-closing bodies 11. The powder caps are collected without affecting the normal falling of other powder caps. The second push rod 46 is electrically connected to the controller via an external switch. The second push rod 46 facilitates the horizontal movement of the receiving frame 45. The guide member 47 can be composed of a guide plate and a guide rod. The guide rod is fixed to the receiving frame 45, and the guide plate is fixed to the mounting frame 43. The outer wall of the guide rod is slidably connected to the guide plate, which facilitates the horizontal guidance of the movement of the receiving frame 45 and improves the stability of the movement of the receiving frame 45. The first plate 41 and the second plate 42 are both fixed to the bottom of the auxiliary frame 28. The mounting frame 43 is slidably connected between the first plate 41 and the second plate 42. The connecting member 44 includes a connecting part 441 and a second connecting part 442. The second locking part 442 and the connecting part 441 facilitate connection with the sliding part 275, thereby facilitating the movement of the connecting part 441 when the sliding body 271 moves. The second locking part 442 facilitates locking or releasing the position restriction between the mounting bracket 43 and the first plate 41 and the second plate 42, thereby facilitating the simultaneous release of the position restriction of the mounting bracket 43 after the position restriction of the connecting plate 21 is lifted. It should be noted that a rubber pad can be provided between the mounting bracket 43 and the first plate 41 and the second plate 42 to increase the damping feel, so that when the connecting plate 21 is disassembled, the mounting bracket 43 can remain stationary if there is no need for disassembly, and the connecting part 441 is fixed to the edge of the sliding part 275. On the side, the bottom of the auxiliary frame 28 is provided with a second sliding groove that matches the series part 441. The second locking part 442 is located on the side of the series part 441.

[0027] Furthermore, the positioning mechanism 6 includes a docking seat 61, a docking frame 62, an embedded frame 63, an operating plate 64, and a pushing frame 65. The docking seat 61 facilitates insertion with the bottom of the gripping frame 12, enabling convenient positioning of the gripping frame 12 connection. The docking frame 62 is T-shaped, facilitating locking the relative positions of the gripping frame 12 and the docking seat 61, allowing multiple positions of the gripping frame 12 to be simultaneously connected, fixed, or disassembled with multiple sliding seats 14. The embedded frame 63 facilitates sliding of the docking frame 62 within it. The operating plate 64 facilitates pushing the docking frame 62 to move. The pushing frame 65 is I-shaped with convex ends, facilitating the connection of two operating plates 64 in the same row. When the gripping frame 12 needs to be disassembled, the external hydraulic cylinder drives the gripping frame 12 to switch to the second stroke, causing the gripping frame 12 to retract. This pushes the frame 65 against the mating part 662, thereby pushing the operating plate 64 to disengage the docking frame 62 from the inside of the docking seat 61. At this time, the position restriction on the gripping frame 12 and the multiple sliding seats 14 is released. Then, the gripping frame 12 is moved upwards directly. During the upward movement, the mating part 662 and the push frame 65 remain in contact. A wear-resistant pad can be placed between the mating part 662 and the push frame 65. It should be noted that the first stroke of the external hydraulic cylinder driving the gripping frame 12 is to move it above the lid-closing body 11 to grip the milk powder lid. The normal position of the gripping frame 12 is as follows: Figure 11 As shown, the device will only retract when switching to the second stroke. The docking seat 61 is fixed to the top of the sliding seat 14. The bottom of the flipping frame 13 has a groove that matches the docking seat 61. The docking frame 62 is slidably connected to the inside of the docking seat 61. The embedded frame 63 is fixedly embedded in the side of the gripping frame 12 near the sliding seat 14. The docking frame 62 slides inside the embedded frame 63. The operating plate 64 is fixed to the side of the docking frame 62. The side of the embedded frame 63 has a first through groove that matches the operating plate 64. The side of the gripping frame 12 has a second through groove that matches the operating plate 64. The pushing frame 65 is fixed to the end of the operating plate 64 away from the docking frame 62.

[0028] Furthermore, the positioning mechanism 6 also includes a mating part 66 and a spring 67. The mating part 66 includes a mating body 661 and a mating portion 662. The mating body 661 is conducive to supporting the mating portion 662, and the mating portion 662 is conducive to pressing against the push frame 65. The elastic force of the spring 67 is conducive to pushing the docking frame 62 to move, so that the docking frame 62 can return to its original position after movement, so that the docking frame 62 can be repeated. The spring 67 can be used with a damper to improve the stability of use. The mating body 661 is fixed to the side of the inner wall of the frame 1, and the mating portion 662 is located on the mating body 661 and mates with the outside of the push frame 65. The spring 67 is located inside the embedded frame 63, and the two ends of the spring 67 are fixed to the sides of the inner wall of the docking frame 62 and the embedded frame 63, respectively.

[0029] Working principle of this invention: When it is necessary to produce milk powder caps, the external robotic arm first grabs the formed milk powder cap from the external mold, then moves it above the frame 1 and into the frame 1. The milk powder cap is then placed on the cap-closing body 11, and the cap-closing body 11 performs the cap-closing forming operation. During the cap-closing process, the detection head 32 collects real-time images of the usage of the cap-closing body 11 and the cap-closing status, and compares them with preset standard images. If the detection head 32 identifies a structural abnormality in the cap-closing body 11, it sends an alarm signal to the controller. After receiving the alarm signal, the controller controls the alarm to sound an alarm sound and simultaneously controls the cap-closing body 11 and the external robotic arm to stop, so that the cap-closing body 11 can be removed for maintenance. If the detection head 32 detects a defect in the milk powder cap formed by the closing body 11, it sends a receiving signal to the controller. Upon receiving the receiving signal, the controller activates the second push rod 46 corresponding to the closing body 11. The second push rod 46 pushes the receiving frame 45 forward, and then moves it to the corresponding placement position on the flipping rack 13, so that the defective milk powder cap can be directly placed into the receiving frame 45 without affecting the normal downward placement of other normal milk powder caps onto the external conveyor belt. At the same time, the alarm sounds to prompt the timely removal of the defective milk powder cap. If the detection head 32 detects a defect, the gripping frame 12 moves to the position of the closing body 11 via the sliding seat 14, grips the formed milk powder cap, and then moves it to the flipping rack 13, transferring it to the flipping rack 13 for gripping. The milk powder cap flips downwards to place it on the external conveyor belt for transport. When the machine stops, the adjustable plate 31 adjusts the angle of the detection head 32 via the rotating part 34, and then sends a patrol command to the controller. The controller controls the servo motor 58 to start. The servo motor 58 drives the rotating shaft 54 ​​to rotate via the transmission part 56. The rotating shaft 54 ​​drives the rotating cylinder 52 and the top plate 53 to rotate via the adjusting ring 55, so that the adjusting frame 33 drives the adjustable plate 31 and the detection head 32 to rotate at a set speed. During the rotation, the detection head 32 collects images on the rotation path and compares them with preset images. If an abnormality is found in the internal structure of the frame 1 or there is a danger in the surrounding environment, an emergency alarm command is sent to the controller. After receiving the emergency alarm command, the controller alarm sends an alarm sound to alert the user. When the cover body 11 needs to be removed for maintenance or replacement, pressing the external setting button sends a start signal to the controller. Upon receiving the start signal, the controller activates the first push rod 211, which pulls the slider 271 horizontally. The slider 271 slides inside the auxiliary frame 28 via the sliding part 275 and the guide rail 29, simultaneously moving the first moving part 272, the second moving part 273, and the first locking part 274. Then, the first locking part 274 disengages from the fixed seat 24, the support seat 25, and the support frame 26, releasing the positional restriction on the two connecting plates 21, and then the cover can be lifted upwards. The connecting plate 21 can be used to remove the entire cover body 11 from inside the frame 1 for operation. In addition, while the sliding body 271 moves the sliding part 275, it also moves the connecting part 441 and the second locking part 442 horizontally. As a result, the second locking part 442 releases the position restriction of the mounting frame 43, so that the mounting frame 43 can be pulled directly out from between the first plate 41 and the second plate 42 to allow material to be taken from the corresponding receiving frame 45. If it is not necessary to remove the receiving frame 45, after the mounting frame 43 is released, no operation is required. The sliding body 271 will then reset and lock the mounting frame 43 again.
