[0041] The above-described solution will be further illustrated below with reference to specific embodiments. It should be understood that these embodiments are for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to limit the scope of the invention. The implementation conditions used in the embodiments may be further adjusted according to the conditions of specific manufacturers, and the implementation conditions not specified are generally those in routine experiments.

[0042] like Figures 1 to 3 The diagram shown is a structural schematic of an embodiment of the present invention. A counting and filling device for circular sheet products is provided, including a feeding and adjusting mechanism 100, a counting and detection mechanism 200, a filling mechanism 300, and a control unit. The feeding and adjusting mechanism 100, the counting and detection mechanism 200, and the filling mechanism 300 are respectively connected to the control unit to realize automatic counting and filling of circular sheet products.

[0043] The feeding and adjusting mechanism 100 is used to convey the circular sheet product 400 and adjust the circular sheet product 400 to a vertical position. It includes a vibrating discharge assembly 101, a vibrating sorting assembly 102 disposed at the discharge end of the vibrating discharge assembly 101, and a vibrating adjusting assembly 103 disposed at the discharge end of the vibrating sorting assembly 102. The vibrating discharge assembly 101 outputs the circular sheet product 400 to the vibrating sorting assembly 102, arranging the circular sheet product 400 in a flat, sequential arrangement. Then, the vibrating adjusting assembly 103 adjusts the flat circular sheet product to a vertical position (e.g., ...). Figure 4 (As shown).

[0044] The vibrating discharge assembly 101 includes a vibrating discharge plate 101a, a hopper 101b disposed at the feed end of the vibrating discharge plate 101a, and a discharge vibrator 101c connected to the vibrating discharge plate 101a. The discharge vibrator 101c drives the vibrating discharge plate 101a to vibrate so as to output the circular sheet product 400 in the hopper 101b.

[0045] The vibration sorting assembly 102 includes a vibration sorting plate 102a and a sorting vibrator 102b connected to the vibration sorting plate 102a. Multiple sorting channels are formed on the vibration sorting plate 102a. The width of the sorting channels is adapted to the outer diameter of the circular sheet product 400 and has a downward tilt angle along the discharge direction. Preferably, the tilt angle is less than 2°.

[0046] Specifically, the bottom of the sorting vibration plate 102a is set with the aforementioned tilt angle, such as... Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, a plurality of blocking ribs 102a1 extending along the discharge direction are provided at the bottom of the sorting vibration plate 102a. The blocking ribs 102a1 and the baffles on both sides of the sorting vibration plate 102a or the adjacent blocking ribs 102a1 form sorting channels. The sorting vibrator 102b drives the sorting vibration plate 102a to vibrate. By adjusting the amplitude of the sorting vibrator 102b, the circular sheet products 400 are arranged in an orderly manner in each sorting channel.

[0047] The vibration orientation assembly 103 includes a vibration orientation plate 103a and an orientation vibrator 103b connected to the vibration orientation plate 103a. Multiple orientation channels are formed on the vibration orientation plate 103a. The orientation channels include a guide trough 103a1 that extends along the discharge direction and is arranged at an inclination, and a drop trough 103a2 that is provided at the discharge end of the guide trough 103a1. The drop trough 103a2 is a vertical through trough for a circular sheet product to pass through.

[0048] like Figures 7 to 9 As shown, the vibrating directional plate 103a is provided with multiple guide components 103c arranged along the discharge direction, such as... Figure 10As shown, the guiding component 103c includes a guiding block 103c1 and a guiding strip 103c2 disposed on the side of the guiding block 103c1. An inclined guiding surface is provided on the side of the guiding block 103c1 facing the guiding strip 103c2. The guiding strip 103c2 includes a horizontal section and an inclined section. The inclined section extends downward at an inclination along the discharge direction to the discharge chute 103a2. A guide chute is formed between the guiding component 103c and the baffles on both sides of the vibrating directional plate 103a or adjacent guiding components 103c. The angle between the inclined guiding surface and the horizontal direction is greater than or equal to 45°, preferably 45°. The circular sheet product 400 entering the vibrating directional plate 103a from the sorting channel first enters the guide chute along the inclined guiding surface, rolls forward along the guiding strip 103c2, and finally is adjusted to a vertical state by the discharge chute 103a2 and falls into the counting and detection mechanism 200.

[0049] like Figure 11 and Figure 12 As shown, the counting and detection mechanism 200 includes a counting track 201 arranged below the vibration orientation component 103, a counting and detection component 202 mounted on the counting track 201, a first baffle component mounted below the counting and detection component 202, and a second baffle component mounted at the discharge end of the counting track 201. Multiple counting channels 201a are formed on the counting track 201 and arranged at an inclined downward direction. The width of the counting channel 201a is adapted to the thickness of a single circular sheet product 400.

[0050] The counting and detection assembly 202 includes a support frame 202a and multiple counting sensors mounted on the support frame 202a, each counting sensor corresponding to a corresponding counting channel 201a. The first blocking assembly includes multiple first blocking cylinders 203 corresponding to the multiple counting channels 201a, and the second blocking assembly includes multiple second blocking cylinders 204 corresponding to the multiple counting channels 201a. The first blocking cylinders 203 and second blocking cylinders 204 block the circular sheet product 400 within the counting channels 201a. The counting sensors are photoelectric sensors, and the first blocking cylinders 203 and second blocking cylinders 204 are blocking cylinders.

[0051] To further optimize the implementation effect of the present invention, an upper cover 201b is installed above the counting track 201. The counting detection component is adjustablely mounted on the upper cover 201b, a first baffle component is adjustablely mounted above the upper cover 201b, and a second baffle component is fixedly mounted above the upper cover 201b. The upper cover 201b includes a cover plate and side plates extending downwards on both sides of the cover plate. The side plates have mounting grooves 201b1 extending along their length. The support frame 202a of the counting detection component is bolted to the mounting groove 201b1. The position of the counting detection component can be adjusted by adjusting the position of the support frame 202a in the mounting groove 201b1.

[0052] Multiple first-stage blocking cylinders 203 and multiple second-stage blocking cylinders 204 are mounted on a bracket (not shown) and can extend into the counting channel 201a. Multiple adjusting slots 201b2 extending along the length direction are provided on the cover plate to allow the multiple first-stage blocking cylinders 203 to enter. The first-stage blocking cylinders 203 extend into the counting channel 201a through the adjusting slots 201b2 to block the circular sheet products 400. The distance between the second-stage blocking cylinders 204 and the first-stage blocking cylinders 203 is the sum of the outer diameters of a preset number of circular sheet products 400 in the counting channel 201a. By adjusting the position of the first-stage blocking cylinders 203 in the adjusting slots 201b2, the distance between them and the second-stage blocking cylinders 204 is adjusted, thereby adjusting the number of fillings.

[0053] like Figure 13 and Figure 14 As shown, the filling mechanism 300 includes a filling funnel 301, a gate 302 installed inside the filling funnel 301, and a driving component 303 for rotating the gate 302. The driving component 303 is a cylinder. The filling funnel 301 includes an inlet 301a at the upper end and two outlets 301b at the lower end. The gate 302 is rotatably positioned between the two outlets 301b and can connect the inlet 301a with one of the outlets 301b. When the previous packaging container reaches its full capacity, the circular sheet product 400 is discharged from one of the outlets 301b for filling. When the next packaging container reaches its full capacity, the other outlet 301b discharges the product for filling, thus achieving continuous filling and improving production efficiency.

[0054] The working principle of this invention is as follows:

[0055] The hopper 101b, containing circular sheet products 400, sprinkles the circular sheet products 400 onto the vibrating discharge plate 101a. The vibrating discharge plate 101a spreads the circular sheet products 400 and conveys them forward to the vibrating sorting plate 102a. The circular sheet products 400 are arranged in an orderly manner in multiple sorting channels on the vibrating sorting plate 102a, and then conveyed to the vibrating adjusting plate 103a to adjust the tilt angle of the circular sheet products 400. They are then adjusted to a vertical position via the dropping chute 103a2 and fall into the counting channel 201a. The counting detection component counts the circular sheet products 400 in each counting channel 201a. The second blocking cylinder 204 stops the flow of material. When the number of circular sheet products 400 in the corresponding counting channel 201a reaches a certain value... When a preset number (e.g., ten) is reached, the first blocking cylinder 203 closes the counting channel 201a, pausing the product conveying. When any n counting channels 201a (for example, n is 5 if each packaging container holds 50 products) are full of the preset number of products, the drive component 303 rotates the gate 302 to open the second blocking cylinders 204 of the n counting channels 201a, and the products are loaded into the previous packaging container. After that, the second blocking cylinders 204 of these n channels close and the first blocking cylinder 203 opens, resuming the conveying of the circular sheet products 400, which are blocked in the corresponding counting channel 201a by the corresponding second blocking cylinder 204. When any n counting channels 201a are full of the preset number of products, the filling of the next packaging container continues.

[0056] In summary, this counting and filling mode can realize the orientation and counting of round sheet products, with accurate counting and high efficiency.
