Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the technical field of arrangement and conveying devices, and particularly relates to an automatic bottle sorting and directional arrangement and conveying device for plastic medicine bottles. Background Technology
[0002] In the pharmaceutical and food packaging industries, automated bottle unloading and conveying of plastic medicine bottles is a crucial step in achieving production automation. Currently, commonly used bottle unloading equipment mainly includes the following categories:
[0003] 1. Vibratory bottle unscrambler: It mainly uses a vibratory plate to gradually straighten the medicine bottles and send them into the conveyor track. However, it has problems such as high noise, high energy consumption, and easy bottle jamming. It is also not suitable for large or lightweight plastic bottles.
[0004] Second, belt conveyors with manual assistance rely on manual placement or simple baffles for limiting movement. This method has a low degree of automation, high labor intensity, and cannot meet the requirements of GMP clean production. Summary of the Invention
[0005] The purpose of this invention is to solve the problems of slow speed and difficulty in adapting to the needs of high-speed automated production by traditional vibration bottle sorting or manual bottle placement methods. These problems include the frequent occurrence of bottles falling over, reversing, or tilting when entering the conveyor belt, which affects subsequent filling and capping processes. Furthermore, the existing conveying devices cannot flexibly adjust the channel width and guide path due to the large size differences between different specifications of bottles. Therefore, this invention proposes an automatic bottle sorting and directional arrangement conveying device for plastic medicine bottles.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: an automatic bottle unloading and directional conveying device for plastic medicine bottles, comprising:
[0007] The psychological bottle unit is connected to the tilting seat;
[0008] The first transmission unit is connected to the end of the psychological bottle unit;
[0009] The second conveying unit and the first conveying unit are provided with a rotating conveying unit between them. The bottle-dispensing unit includes a toggle member and a guide plate, with the guide plate extending to the first conveying unit.
[0010] Furthermore, the aforementioned actuating element is connected to the connecting seat, the guide plate includes an arc-shaped plate and an extension plate, and a number of inclined guide plates are provided inside the actuating element. The guide plate and the actuating element form a conveying groove by forming a barrier between them.
[0011] Furthermore, the first conveying unit is provided with a limiting component, which includes a connecting plate, a telescopic cylinder, and a limiting plate. The telescopic cylinder is connected to the connecting plate, and the limiting plate is connected to the telescopic end of the telescopic cylinder.
[0012] Furthermore, the second conveying unit is provided with an adjusting component, which includes a mounting plate, an adjusting screw, and a movable plate. The mounting plate is connected to the second conveying unit, and the adjusting screw passes through the mounting plate and is connected to the movable plate.
[0013] Furthermore, the aforementioned rotary conveying unit includes a rotary base and a docking conveying unit, with the docking conveying unit connected to the rotary base.
[0014] Furthermore, the first and second transmission units are arranged vertically.
[0015] Furthermore, the aforementioned actuating component is provided with several receiving grooves, and several inclined guide plates are located within the several receiving grooves.
[0016] This invention provides an automatic bottle sorting and directional conveying device for plastic medicine bottles. After the medicine bottles are poured into the centrifugal bottle sorting unit, the actuating component rotates, using centrifugal force and gravity to throw the medicine bottles outward. A conveying groove is formed between the guide plate and the actuating component. The medicine bottles move orderly along the conveying groove and are conveyed to the first conveying unit. After the medicine bottles enter the first conveying unit, the telescopic cylinder of the limiting component drives the limiting plate to move closer to or away from the conveying surface, limiting the lateral displacement of the medicine bottles, preventing them from tipping over and maintaining a uniform posture. When the medicine bottles reach the rotating conveying unit, the rotating seat drives the docking conveying unit to rotate, switching the medicine bottles from the first conveying direction to the second conveying direction (usually a 90° turn), completing the direction adjustment. The medicine bottles enter the second conveying unit. The adjusting component adjusts the position of the moving plate through the adjusting screw, changing the width of the conveying channel to adapt to the stable conveying of medicine bottles of different specifications. After directional arrangement, the medicine bottles are output to the subsequent filling or packaging station with a uniform posture and stable spacing, realizing fully automatic continuous operation.
[0017] Therefore, this embodiment has the following advantages compared to the prior art:
[0018] An automatic bottle sorting and orientation conveying device for plastic medicine bottles solves the problems of slow speed and difficulty in adapting to the needs of high-speed automated production by traditional vibration bottle sorting or manual bottle placement. The problems of medicine bottles often falling over, reversing, or tilting when entering the conveyor belt affect the subsequent filling and capping processes. The existing conveying devices have difficulty flexibly adjusting the channel width and guide path due to the large size difference of different specifications of medicine bottles.
