Description

[0060] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0061] See also Figures 1 to 5 As shown, the specific embodiments provided by the utility model are as follows:

[0062] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, the first embodiment of the utility model provides an automatic capping device, which at least comprises:

[0063] A conveying track 1, wherein the conveying track 1 is used for conveying bottles;

[0064] An integration part 2 is disposed above the conveying track 1, wherein the integration part 2 at least forms an integration channel 201 for conveying bottles, and the conveying path of the integration channel 201 is consistent with the conveying path of the conveying track 1;

[0065] The second integration part 3 is disposed above the first integration part 2, wherein the second integration part 3 forms at least one capping channel 301, and the capping channel 301 contacts the bottle cap to tighten the bottle cap when the bottle is conveyed, and the path of the capping channel 301 is consistent with the conveying path of the first integration part 2;

[0066] Wherein, the capping channel 301 is formed by an integrated wheel 4, and the integrated wheel 4 has a rotational resistance;

[0067] The rotation resistance is the friction force that prevents the integrated wheel 4 from rotating.

[0068] In this embodiment, the conveying track 1 is used to convey bottles, wherein the conveying track 1 can be in the form of an electric conveyor belt to convey multiple bottles to designated workstations.

[0069] On the basis of the above, an integration part 2 is added. The integration part 2 forms an integration channel 201. When the bottle body is transported to this position, it enters the integration channel 201. The integration channel 201 can exert a force on the bottle body to keep it stable. In addition, it is also necessary to consider that if the conveying channel directly clamps the bottle body, the bottle body cannot continue to move. Therefore, the conveying channel needs to at least maintain the same conveying speed as the conveying track 1, so as to meet the conveying of the bottle body on the basis of ensuring the tightening of the bottle body.

[0070] On the basis of the above, the second integration part 3 is added. The second integration part 3 has a capping channel 301. When the bottle body is clamped and conveyed by the conveying channel, the bottle cap contacts the capping channel 301, and the capping channel 301 applies a tightening force to the bottle cap to complete the capping process.

[0071] Moreover, the integrated wheel 4 is formed with a capping channel 301, that is, the circumferential wall of the integrated wheel 4 forms the capping channel 301. In order to improve the capping quality of the integrated wheel 4, a friction surface can be added to the circumferential wall, such as adding a rubber belt, to increase the friction between the capping channel 301 and the bottle cap.

[0072] Moreover, the integrated wheel 4 has rotation resistance. It should be understood that we expect the integrated wheel 4 to be able to rotate, but this rotation needs to have a certain resistance, that is, its rotation needs to have a certain friction force, and this friction force helps to further tighten the bottle cap.

[0073] Furthermore, multiple sets of integration wheels 4 need to be provided and arranged along the conveying path of the bottle bodies so that the bottle caps continuously go through the tightening process, thereby ensuring the tightening degree.

[0074] It can be seen that the automatic tightening process of the bottle cap is realized by the cooperation between the integrated first part 2 and the integrated second part 3, thereby improving the processing efficiency and quality of the bottle body. In addition, the cap screwing structure, that is, the integrated second part 3, is no longer driven by an electric device, thereby avoiding excessive tightening of the bottle cap and saving electric energy, thereby reducing production and manufacturing costs.

[0075] The second embodiment of the present invention provides an automatic capping device, and based on the first embodiment, the integrated part 2 at least includes:

[0076] A first mounting frame 202 is disposed above the conveying track 1, wherein the first mounting frame 202 at least forms an installation space;

[0077] An integrated belt 203 connected to the installation space;

[0078] A driving member 204 connected to the integration belt 203 to drive the integration belt 203 to move;

[0079] The integration channel 201 is formed between the integration belts 203 .

[0080] In this embodiment, the specific structure of the integration part 2 is limited.

[0081] The first mounting frame 202 is used to be connected to the top of the conveying track 1, and is used to provide an installation position for the remaining structures. The first mounting frame 202 needs to form an installation space, and the installation space is consistent with the conveying path. The integration belt 203 is arranged in the installation space in the form of a conveyor belt, and can be driven by a driving member 204, such as a motor, to rotate.

[0082] Furthermore, two sets of integration belts 203 are installed on both sides of the conveying track, and the integration channel 201 is formed in the middle. When the driving member 204 rotates, the integration belts 203 are driven to rotate, so that the bottles sandwiched between the integration belts 203 move along the conveying path.

[0083] The third embodiment of the present invention provides an automatic capping device, and based on the previous embodiment, the integrated second part 3 at least includes:

[0084] A second mounting frame 302, connected to the conveying track 1 and located above the integration part 2;

[0085] An adjusting portion 303, disposed on the second mounting frame 302;

[0086] Wherein, the integration wheel 4 is connected to the adjustment part 303;

[0087] The adjusting portion 303 can change the spacing of the integrated wheels 4 to adjust the spacing of the capping channels 301 .

[0088] In this embodiment, the specific structure of the second integration part 3 is limited.

[0089] The second mounting frame 302 is used to be connected to the conveying track 1 to provide an installation station for the remaining structures.

[0090] The adjusting part 303 and the integrating wheel 4 are connected.

[0091] Due to the different specifications of the bottle body, the size of the bottle cap will change. In order to adapt to this change, the added adjustment part 303 can adjust the spacing between the integrated wheels 4, so that the spacing of the screw-on capping channel 301 is increased or decreased, thereby achieving the adjustment of the spacing size of the screw-on capping channel 301.

[0092] The fourth embodiment of the present invention provides an automatic capping device, and based on the previous embodiment, the adjusting part 303 includes:

[0093] A third mounting frame 3031, connected to the second mounting frame 302;

[0094] The adjustment component 3032 is screwed to the third mounting bracket 3031;

[0095] A sliding component 3033 is screwed to the adjusting component 3032 , and the integrated wheel 4 is connected to the sliding component 3033 ;

[0096] The adjusting component 3032 has a rotational motion, and the sliding component 3033 is controlled by the rotational motion to move along the axis direction of the adjusting component 3032 .

[0097] In this embodiment, the specific structure of the adjustment unit 303 is limited.

[0098] The third mounting frame 3031 is used to connect with the second mounting frame 302 to provide an installation position for the remaining structures.

[0099] The adjusting component 3032 has a rotational motion. When it rotates, it causes the sliding component 3033 to move in the axial direction, thereby changing the spacing of the integrated wheels 4 installed on the sliding component 3033 .

[0100] The fifth embodiment of the present utility model provides an automatic capping device, and based on the previous embodiment, the adjustment component 3032 includes:

[0101] The adjusting screw 30321 is screwed to the third mounting bracket 3031;

[0102] An adjusting handle 30322 is disposed at the end of the adjusting screw 30321;

[0103] Wherein, the adjusting screw 30321 has a first thread segment and a second thread segment;

[0104] Furthermore, the thread rotation direction of the first thread segment is opposite to the thread rotation direction of the second thread segment;

[0105] Furthermore, the sliding assembly 3033 is screwed to the first thread segment and the second thread segment respectively.

[0106] In this embodiment, the specific structure of the adjustment component 3032 is limited.

[0107] In the specific operation, the adjusting screw 30321 is rotated by adjusting the handle 30322, so that the sliding components 3033 respectively installed on the first thread segment and the second thread segment move toward or away from each other, thereby driving the distance between the integrated wheels 4 to change.

[0108] The advantage of the above method is that the spacing adjustment of the integration wheel 4 can be better controlled manually, so that the size of the capping channel 301 is more accurately matched with the size of the bottle cap.

[0109] The sixth embodiment of the present invention provides an automatic capping device, and based on the previous embodiment, the sliding assembly 3033 at least includes:

[0110] The slider 30331 is screwed to the first thread segment and the second thread segment of the adjusting screw 30321;

[0111] A guide member 30332 connects the slider 30331 and the third mounting frame 3031;

[0112] Wherein, the guide member 30332 provides movement constraint for the slider 30331;

[0113] Among them, the path of the movement constraint is the axial direction of the adjusting screw 30321.

[0114] In this embodiment, the specific structure of the sliding component 3033 is limited.

[0115] The sliders 30331 are respectively connected to the first thread segment and the second thread segment. When the adjusting screw 30321 rotates, the sliders 30331 can move toward or away from each other and drive the integrated wheels 4 to move synchronously, thereby changing the spacing between the integrated wheels 4.

[0116] On the basis of the above, a guide member 30332 is added, wherein the guide member 30332 can provide movement constraints for the slider 30331, thereby preventing the movement of the slider 30331 from deviating from the set route.

[0117] The seventh embodiment of the present utility model provides an automatic capping device, and based on the previous embodiment, the guide member 30332 includes:

[0118] A guide hole formed in the slider 30331;

[0119] The guide shaft is connected to the third mounting frame 3031, and the guide hole is rotatably matched with the guide shaft.

[0120] In this embodiment, the specific structure of the guide member 30332 is limited.

[0121] When the slider 30331 slides, the guide hole moves along the axial direction of the guide shaft, thereby preventing the movement of the slider 30331 from deviating from the set route.

[0122] The eighth embodiment of the present utility model provides an automatic capping device, and based on the previous embodiment, the integrated wheel 4 is connected to the slider 30331 through the guide rod 5, and moves synchronously with the slider 30331;

[0123] The guide rod 5 and the integrated wheel 4 are rotationally matched, the rotational resistance is the rotational friction between the guide rod 5 and the integrated wheel 4, and the rotational friction is a set value;

[0124] Alternatively, the guide rod 5 is fixedly connected to the integrated wheel 4, and the rotational friction force is zero.

[0125] In this embodiment, as mentioned above, we expect that the integrated wheel 4 has a certain rotational resistance, so as to help the integrated wheel 4 to tighten the bottle cap faster.

[0126] Therefore, the guide rod 5 and the integrated wheel 4 can be rotatably matched, but a certain friction force needs to exist between the guide rod 5 and the integrated wheel 4 to ensure the rotational resistance of the integrated wheel 4. Of course, the magnitude of the rotational friction force can be adjusted according to the actual working conditions.

[0127] In another case, the guide rod 5 and the integrated wheel 4 are fixedly connected, and the two no longer rotate, and the tightening process of the bottle cap can also be achieved.

[0128] The ninth embodiment of the utility model provides an automatic capping device, and based on the previous embodiment, further includes:

[0129] A lifting assembly 6 connected between the second mounting frame 302 and the conveying track 1;

[0130] Wherein, the lifting assembly 6 adjusts the height of the second mounting frame 302 at least in a first direction;

[0131] The first direction is perpendicular to the conveying direction of the conveying track 1 .

[0132] In this embodiment, the lifting assembly 6 is used to adjust the height of the second mounting frame 302, and it can be in the form of a hydraulic cylinder, a pneumatic cylinder or an electric push rod.

[0133] The tenth embodiment of the present utility model provides an automatic capping device, and based on the previous embodiment, further includes:

[0134] A correction structure 7, arranged at the starting point and / or the end point of the conveying path of the conveying track 1;

[0135] The correction structure 7 at least forms a correction channel to correct the conveying path of the bottle body.

[0136] In this embodiment, a correction structure 7 is also included.

[0137] The correction structure 7 is formed with a correction channel, the path of which is consistent with the conveying path, so as to guide the bottle body so that it enters the conveying track 1 according to the set path.

[0138] The correction structure 7 may be composed of two correction plates arranged opposite to each other on the conveying track 1 .
