Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of capping machines, and more specifically, to a cap sorting and capping machine. Background Art

[0002] Packaging bottles are currently used to package many liquid products. Liquid is poured into the bottle and then sealed with a sealing cap. In the early days, these steps were all completed manually. With the development of the times, mechanical equipment is now used throughout the process. The cap sorting and capping machine is used to simply achieve the contact and positioning of the bottle body and the sealing cap, and then the bottle cap and the bottle body are tightened.

[0003] According to the search, the Chinese patent with patent number CN213011888U discloses a cap sorting and dropping machine, including a rotating mechanism, both ends of which are rotatably connected with movable structures that are convenient for active contact with bottle caps, and the movable structures are provided with four groups. One end of one group of movable structures is fixedly connected with a power mechanism that provides power for tightening the bottle caps. The adjustable horizontal height of the equipment is achieved through the movable structure to better adapt to the changes in the horizontal height of the bottle caps during the rotation and advancement process. At the same time, the setting of the power mechanism provides power for the rotation of the rotating mechanism. Through the self-rotation of the rotating mechanism, the bottle caps are driven to rotate through friction, thereby realizing the tightening of the bottle caps.

[0004] With respect to the above-mentioned related technologies, the applicant believes that, although the above-mentioned cap sorting and capping machine can tighten the bottle caps when in use, the method of tightening the bottle caps by driving the conveyor belt is unstable due to the relatively loose conveyor belt. In addition, in the process of tightening the bottle caps, there are no corresponding measures to stabilize the bottle body, which causes the bottle body to shake easily during the cap tightening process, thereby affecting the success rate of cap tightening. For this reason, we propose a cap sorting and capping machine. Utility Model Content
