Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the field of conveying equipment, and in particular to a device for preventing material stacking. Background Art

[0002] In a bottled liquid production line, it is usually necessary to load the bottles first, then arrange the bottles in order, fill them with liquid in batches, and unload them one by one after packaging.

[0003] Before filling the bottles with liquid, the bottles need to be neatly arranged and spaced at the same distance using a robot. The robot needs to accurately identify each bottle when grabbing it, which requires that the bottles cannot be stacked on the conveyor belt during the material loading process. Stacking will cause the bottles to tilt, affecting the accurate identification and grabbing of the bottles. Therefore, a device that can prevent stacking during material loading is urgently needed. Utility Model Content

[0004] In order to prevent material stacking during the loading process, the present application provides an anti-material stacking device, which can separate the stacked materials so that the materials are separated from each other and evenly distributed on the conveyor belt.

[0007] By adopting the above technical solution, the driving member is used to drive the toggle member to rotate around the axis of the installation shaft. When the stacked materials gradually reach the position of the toggle member from the conveyor belt, the toggle member acts on the material located above and toggle the material in the direction of the incoming material to separate the stacked materials. If the pushed back material is stacked again, it will continue to be pushed in the direction of the incoming material by the toggle member until the materials are independently and evenly distributed on the conveyor belt, so as to facilitate the identification and grasping of the materials in subsequent processes.

[0008] Optionally, the toggle member includes a plurality of bristles, and the plurality of bristles are fixed to the circumferential side of the mounting shaft.

[0009] By adopting the above technical solution, the driving member drives the bristles to rotate around the axis of the installation shaft to brush away the stacked materials, and there are gaps between the bristles, so the air resistance during rotation is small and the rotation efficiency is higher.

[0010] Optionally, the bristles are soft bristles.

[0011] By adopting the above technical solution, soft bristles can be used to prevent the bristles from damaging the surface of the material.

[0012] Optionally, a plurality of the bristles are evenly distributed on the circumference of the mounting shaft.

[0013] By adopting the above technical solution, the evenly distributed arrangement can improve the stability of the bristles in separating the stacked materials, ensuring that the stacked materials can be separated.

[0021] By adopting the above technical solution, the height of the mounting shaft on the conveyor belt can be flexibly adjusted using the lifting assembly, thereby adjusting the distance between the toggle member and the upper surface of the conveyor belt to adapt to materials of different sizes, thereby ensuring that the toggle member can stably push away the stacked materials without affecting the normal transportation of the materials.

[0022] Optionally, baffles are provided on both sides of the conveyor belt.

[0023] By adopting the above technical solution, the baffle can ensure that the moved materials are on the conveyor belt, thereby preventing the moved materials from falling from both sides of the conveyor belt.

[0024] In summary, the present application includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects:

[0025] 1. The driving member drives the toggle member to rotate around the axis of the mounting shaft. When the stacked materials gradually reach the position of the toggle member from the conveyor belt, the toggle member acts on the materials above and toggle the materials in the direction of the incoming materials to separate the stacked materials. If the materials that have been pushed back are stacked again, they will continue to be pushed in the direction of the incoming materials by the toggle member until the materials are independently and evenly distributed on the conveyor belt, so as to facilitate the identification and grabbing of the materials in the subsequent processes.

[0026] 2. The driving member drives the bristles to rotate around the axis of the mounting shaft to brush away the stacked materials. There are gaps between the bristles, so the air resistance during rotation is small and the rotation efficiency is higher.

[0027] 3. The lifting assembly can be used to flexibly adjust the height of the mounting shaft on the conveyor belt, and then adjust the distance between the toggle member and the upper surface of the conveyor belt to adapt to materials of different sizes, ensuring that the toggle member can stably push away the stacked materials without affecting the normal transportation of the materials.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0033] The following is combined with Figure 1-4 This application is described in further detail.

[0034] Embodiment 1:

[0035] The present application discloses a device for preventing material stacking. Figure 1 and Figure 2, including a mounting shaft 2, a toggle member 3 and a driving member 1. The mounting shaft 2 is rotatably mounted above a conveyor belt for conveying materials. The two ends of the mounting shaft 2 are respectively located on both sides of the conveyor belt, and the axis of the mounting shaft 2 is perpendicular to the conveying direction of the conveyor belt. The output shaft of the driving member 1 is coaxially connected to the mounting shaft 2. The toggle member 3 is arranged on the circumference of the mounting shaft 2. When the driving member 1 drives the mounting shaft 2 to rotate, the toggle member 3 rotates around the axis of the mounting shaft 2 and toggle the stacked materials toward the incoming direction. The toggle member 3 toggles the stacked materials toward the incoming direction to separate the stacked materials. If the pushed back materials are stacked again, they will continue to be pushed toward the incoming direction until the materials are independently and evenly distributed on the conveyor belt.

[0036] Specifically, refer to Figure 3 , the minimum distance between the toggle member 3 and the upper surface of the conveyor belt is greater than the distance between the upper surface of the material and the upper surface of the conveyor belt, that is, when the toggle member 3 is rotated to the lowest position, the toggle member 3 cannot touch the materials that are not stacked, so as to avoid affecting the normal transportation of the materials. At the same time, the minimum distance between the toggle member 3 and the upper surface of the conveyor belt is less than twice the distance between the upper surface of the material and the upper surface of the conveyor belt, that is, when the materials are stacked, the toggle member 3 rotates to the lowest position to contact the materials located above, and toggle the materials located above to the incoming direction to separate the stacked materials.

[0037] Further, refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 The toggle member 3 includes a plurality of bristles 31, which are fixed to the mounting shaft 2, and the length direction of each bristle 31 faces the axis of the mounting shaft 2. The bristles 31 are arranged in rows along the axis direction of the mounting shaft 2 and are evenly distributed along the circumference of the mounting shaft 2. In this embodiment, the bristles 31 are arranged in four rows, and the four rows of bristles 31 are evenly distributed along the circumference of the mounting shaft 2. The angle between the bristles 31 in two adjacent rows is 90°, and the driving member 1 is preferably a servo motor. Preferably, the bristles 31 are soft bristles 31, which can prevent the bristles 31 from damaging the surface of the material.

[0038] When in use, the driving member 1 drives the bristles 31 to rotate around the axis of the mounting shaft 2. When the stacked materials approach the rotating bristles 31, the ends of the bristles 31 away from the mounting shaft 2 contact the materials above and push the materials in the direction of the incoming materials.

[0039] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 Baffles 4 are provided on both sides of the conveyor belt to prevent materials from falling from both sides of the conveyor belt. When the driving member 1 removes the materials, the materials may move to the positions on both sides of the conveyor belt. Baffles 4 can effectively prevent the materials from flying out and ensure that the separated materials are on the conveyor belt.

[0040] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 3 A lifting assembly 5 is provided below the mounting shaft 2 for adjusting the distance between the mounting shaft 2 and the conveyor belt so that the shifting member 3 can adapt to materials of different sizes, thereby improving the applicability of the device.

[0041] Specifically, refer to Figure 3 The lifting assembly 5 includes a mounting member 51, a first fixing plate 52, a second fixing plate 53 and a plurality of connecting columns 54. Each connecting column 54 is fixed between the first fixing plate 52 and the second fixing plate 53, and the connecting column 54 is perpendicular to the plate surface of the first fixing plate 52 and the plate surface of the second fixing plate 53. The first fixing plate 52 is installed at the bottom of the transmission belt. The mounting member 51 is slidably sleeved on each connecting column 54 and is used to set the mounting shaft 2. By moving the mounting member 51 back and forth between the first fixing plate 52 and the second fixing plate 53, the spacing between the mounting shaft 2 and the conveyor belt can be adjusted, and then the relative position of the toggle member 3 and the conveyor belt can be adjusted to ensure that the toggle member 3 accurately toggle the stacked materials.

[0042] The mounting member 51 includes a mounting plate 511 and two supporting plates 512. The two supporting plates 512 are fixed at both ends of the mounting plate 511 to form a U-shaped mounting member 51. The mounting plate 511 is slidably sleeved on each connecting column 54. Both ends of the mounting plate 511 extend to both sides of the conveyor belt. The two supporting plates 512 are located at both sides of the conveyor belt and extend from the bottom of the conveyor belt to the top of the conveyor belt. Both ends of the mounting shaft 2 are rotatably mounted on the ends of the two supporting plates 512 away from the mounting plate 511. That is, the mounting shaft 2 spans over the conveyor belt, and the conveyor belt is located in the U-shaped opening of the mounting member 51.

[0043] At the same time, the second fixed plate 53 is penetrated with an adjusting rod 55, which extends upward and passes through the mounting plate 511. The adjusting rod 55 is rotatably matched with the second fixed plate 53, and the adjusting rod 55 is threadedly matched with the mounting plate 511. A handle 56 is fixed to the end of the adjusting rod 55 away from the conveyor belt. The adjusting rod 55 is rotated by the handle 56, and the mounting plate 511 can be moved back and forth between the first fixed plate 52 and the second fixed plate 53 through the threaded matching structure of the adjusting rod 55 and the mounting plate 511, thereby adjusting the height of the toggle member 3 on the conveyor belt to ensure that the toggle member 3 can accurately toggle the stacked materials.

[0044] In this embodiment, four connecting columns 54 are provided, and the mounting plate 511 is slidably provided on the connecting columns 54 via linear bearings. The use of linear bearings can further improve the smoothness of movement of the mounting plate 511, so as to facilitate adjustment of the positions of the mounting plate 511 and the shifting member 3.

[0045] The implementation principle of Example 1 of the present application is: when the stacked materials pass through the shifting member 3, the bristles 31, driven by the driving member 1, shift the materials located above toward the incoming direction to separate the stacked materials, so that the materials are independently distributed on the conveyor belt to facilitate processing in subsequent processes.

[0046] Embodiment 2:

[0047] The difference between this embodiment and embodiment 1 is that:

[0048] Reference Figure 4 The toggle member 3 includes a plurality of toggle plates 32, which are fixed to the mounting shaft 2, and the plate body of the toggle plates 32 extends along the axial direction of the mounting shaft 2. In this embodiment, four toggle plates 32 are provided and are evenly distributed along the circumference of the mounting shaft 2. In other embodiments, other numbers may also be provided.

[0049] Furthermore, the end of the paddle 32 for contacting the material is coated with a flexible material (not shown in the figure). Preferably, the flexible material is sponge, and in other embodiments, it can also be set to rubber or other materials. The flexible material can prevent the paddle 32 from damaging the surface of the material.

[0050] The implementation principle of Example 2 of the present application is: the driving member 1 drives the paddle 32 to rotate around the axis of the mounting shaft 2 to continuously separate the stacked materials.

[0051] The above are all preferred embodiments of the present application, and the protection scope of the present application is not limited thereto. Therefore, any equivalent changes made according to the structure, shape, and principle of the present application should be included in the protection scope of the present application.
