[0031] In the embodiment of the utility model, the aluminum foil bowl reversing conveying device 100 comprises: a frame 1, the frame 1 is provided with a conveyor belt assembly 2, the conveyor belt assembly 2 has a receiving end 21 and a blanking end 22 opposite to each other in the length direction; a commutator 3, the commutator 3 comprises a shell, the shell is arranged on the frame 1, the shell has an inner cavity, the top end surface of the shell is provided with a feed port 31, the bottom end surface of the shell is provided with a discharge port 32, the feed port 31 and the discharge port 32 are both connected to the inner cavity, the blanking end 22 faces the feed port 31, and the discharge port 32 faces the discharge port 32. The material port 31, the inner cavity of the shell has a first cavity wall surface 33 close to the blanking end 22 and a second cavity wall surface 34 away from the blanking end 22, the first cavity wall surface 33 is a curved surface, the second cavity wall surface 34 is provided with a convex portion 341 on the surface facing the blanking end 22, along the feeding direction of the conveyor belt assembly 2, an installation gap is provided between the end of the convex portion 341 away from the second cavity wall surface 34 and the drop point end, and the distance between the end of the convex portion 341 facing the second cavity wall surface 34 and the blanking end 22 is greater than the diameter of the aluminum foil bowl. Figures 1 to 3 .
[0032] In practical applications, the conveying device 100 disclosed in this application can be used in combination with another conveying device 100, see Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 5The horizontal heights of the two conveying devices 100 are different, wherein the blanking end 22 of the conveying belt assembly 2 located at the higher position faces the receiving end 21 of the conveying belt assembly 2 located at the lower position. Specifically, if the aluminum foil bowl is placed upside down on the conveyor belt assembly 2 located at a high position, the conveyor belt assembly 2 transports the aluminum foil bowl horizontally from the receiving end 21 to the blanking end 22. During the conveying process, the visual inspection equipment performs defect inspection on the bottom surface of the aluminum foil bowl. When the aluminum foil bowl falls from the blanking end 22 into the inner cavity of the commutator 3 shell (of course, the aluminum foil bowl enters the inner cavity from the feed port 31), the side edge of the aluminum foil bowl facing the protrusion 341 abuts against the protrusion 341. After being limited by the protrusion 341, the other side edge of the aluminum foil bowl continues to fall under the action of gravity, and is in a high and low position state with the above-mentioned side edge. After the falling posture changes, the aluminum foil bowl continues to fall from the installation gap, specifically, slides down from the first cavity wall 33, and finally slides out from the discharge port 32 and falls to the conveying equipment 100 located at a low position. At this time, the aluminum foil bowl is placed upright (on the opening). Similarly, if the aluminum foil bowl is placed on the high-position conveyor belt assembly 2, the aluminum foil bowl falls on the conveying surface of the low-position conveying device 100 in an inverted posture after passing through the commutator 3, so that the visual inspection device can detect defects on the front side of the aluminum foil bowl (the bowl mouth and the cavity wall surface of the inner cavity). Of course, there are two visual inspection devices, and the two visual inspection devices are arranged one by one on the two conveying devices 100. The first cavity wall surface 33 is a curved surface structure to ensure that the aluminum foil bowl slides directional and has good motion stability. Of course, the conveyor belt assembly 2 includes a driving shaft (not shown in the figure), a driven shaft (not shown in the figure), a conveyor belt body (not marked in the figure) and a driving motor 23. The driving motor 23 is connected to the frame 1 through a machine base (not marked in the figure). The driving shaft can be rotatably arranged on the frame 1. The driving shaft is located at the blanking end 22 of the conveyor belt assembly 2, and the driven shaft is located at the receiving end 21 of the conveyor belt assembly 2. The motor shaft of the driving motor 23 is driven and connected to the driving shaft, and the conveyor belt body is wound around the driving shaft and the driven shaft to form a closed ring structure. The distance between one end of the protrusion 341 facing the second cavity wall 34 and the blanking end 22 is greater than the diameter of the aluminum foil bowl. The purpose is to prevent the two sides of the aluminum foil bowl from falling because they are supported by the protrusion 341 and the blanking end 22 when the distance between the protrusion 341 and the blanking end 22 is too close.
[0033] Optionally, the axis of the protrusion 341 is parallel to the horizontal ground, and the protrusion 341 is opposite to the middle area of the blanking end 22 .
[0034] This type of structural arrangement, with the convex portion 341 opposite to the middle region of the landing end, enables the side of the aluminum foil bowl to be effectively overlapped with the convex portion 341, so as to implement an effective reversing operation on the aluminum foil bowl.
[0035] See also Figure 2 and Figure 4The convex portion 341 has a connecting portion 3411 and a limiting portion 3412. The connecting portion 3411 is connected to the second cavity wall surface 34, and the limiting portion 3412 faces the blanking end 22. Further, the cross-sectional shape of the convex portion 341 is T-shaped.
[0036] In actual applications, the aluminum foil bowl is inverted and arranged on the conveyor belt assembly 2 for horizontal transportation. When entering the inner cavity from the blanking end 22, one side edge of the aluminum foil bowl can first be stably overlapped on the connecting portion 3411 to increase the blanking stability of the aluminum foil bowl in the inner cavity. Then, under the action of gravity, the aluminum foil bowl falls and changes its falling posture under the resistance of the limiting portion 3412.
[0037] In a further embodiment, in order to facilitate the installation of the connecting portion 3411 , a surface of the second cavity wall 34 facing the blanking end 22 is provided with a step structure 342 , and the connecting portion 3411 is connected to the step structure 342 .
[0038] Optionally, the protrusion 341 is a thin plate structure, and the width value X of the conveyor belt assembly 2 is not greater than X / 3.
[0039] If the width of the thin plate structure is large, the contact area with the aluminum foil bowl increases, and the friction force increases, which will reduce the passability and falling efficiency of the aluminum foil bowl, and even cause the aluminum foil bowl to be hung on the thin plate and unable to fall. To avoid the above problems, the volume of the protrusion 341 should be controlled within a preset range, that is, the protrusion 341 is a thin plate structure, the width value of the conveyor belt assembly 2 is X, and the width value of the thin plate structure is not greater than X / 3.
[0040] Optionally, the protrusion 341 is a rod-shaped structure, the purpose of which is to reduce the volume of the protrusion 341 to ensure the passability and falling efficiency of the aluminum foil bowl.
[0041] See also Figure 4 , the horizontal height of the protrusion 341 is smaller than the horizontal height of the blanking end 22 .
[0042] After the aluminum foil bowl falls from the blanking end 22, the falling end abuts against the convex portion 341 to achieve a reversing operation. With this type of structural arrangement, under the action of inertia and gravity, the aluminum foil bowl is more likely to change its falling state, thereby increasing the passability and blanking efficiency of the aluminum foil bowl.
[0043] Optionally, along the feeding direction, a guide structure 12 is provided on both the left and right sides of the frame 1 , and the guide structure 12 is used to guide the movement of the aluminum foil bowl on the conveyor belt assembly 2 .
[0044] In order to increase the moving stability of the aluminum foil bowl on the conveyor belt assembly 2 and prevent the movement of the mechanism from generating vibration force that causes the aluminum foil bowl to deviate, resulting in the phenomenon that the aluminum foil bowl does not move in a predetermined direction, in the present application, a guide structure 12 is arranged on both side edges of the frame 1 along the feeding direction, and there is an installation spacing between the two guide structures 12. The aluminum foil bowl moves horizontally in the installation spacing to prevent the aluminum foil bowl from deviating.
[0045] Optionally, a driving mechanism is provided on both the left and right sides of the frame 1, and the guide structure 12 is driven and connected to the driving end of the driving structure. The driving structure is used to drive the guide structure 12 to move horizontally along the width direction of the conveyor belt assembly 2, so as to adjust the installation spacing value of the two guide structures 12.
[0046] In practical applications, the driving structure includes a mounting seat 11 and a connecting rod 111. One end of the mounting seat 11 is connected to the frame 1, and the other end of the mounting seat 11 is provided with a through hole. One end of the connecting rod 111 is connected to a side of the guide structure 12 away from the aluminum foil bowl, and the other end of the connecting rod 111 can be movably inserted into the through hole. By adjusting the feed length of the connecting rod 111 in the through hole, the installation spacing of the two guide structures 12 is adjusted to adapt to the guiding use requirements of aluminum foil bowls of different specifications. The driving structure can also be a cylinder or other structure.
[0047] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention, and does not limit the patent scope of the present invention. All equivalent structural changes made by using the contents of the present invention specification and drawings under the inventive concept of the present invention, or directly / indirectly applied in other related technical fields are included in the patent protection scope of the present invention.
