Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of glass bottle production, in particular to a storage and transfer mechanism for pointed-bottom glass bottles. Background Art

[0002] The main features of glass packaging containers are: non-toxic, odorless, transparent, beautiful, good barrier properties, airtight, abundant and common raw materials, low price, and can be used repeatedly. It is also heat-resistant, pressure-resistant, and washable, and can be sterilized at high temperatures and stored at low temperatures. The forming of glass bottles is the process of transforming molten glass into products with fixed geometric shapes through a forming mold. Forming is an important process in the production of glass bottles.

[0003] At present, glass bottles generally have flat bottoms for easy placement. However, according to market demand, oval-shaped pointed-bottom glass bottles are gradually being produced. After these pointed-bottom glass bottles are formed, they are not easy to store because of the pointed bottoms. They are generally transported and transferred by conveyor belts. The oval shape structure makes it easy for them to roll on the conveyor belt and cause collisions. In addition, the glass bottles are formed at high temperature and have not yet been completely cooled and fixed. Their appearance is relatively soft. Collisions will cause deformation of the bottle body, increase the failure rate, and increase production costs. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of the utility model is to overcome the problems raised in the above-mentioned background technology and provide a storage and transfer mechanism for pointed-bottom glass bottles, which can realize stable storage and transfer of pointed-bottom glass bottles, improve product qualification rate and reduce costs.

[0005] The purpose of the utility model is mainly achieved through the following technical solutions:

[0006] A storage and transfer mechanism for pointed-bottom glass bottles comprises a support frame, a support plate is arranged above the support frame, the support plate is connected to the top of the support frame, a power mechanism is installed on the support frame, and the power mechanism is connected to the support plate, and the power mechanism can drive the support plate to rotate along its own axis, and a plurality of through holes are formed in the top of the support plate, and mounting sleeves are installed in the through holes. At present, when pointed bottom glass bottles are produced, they need to be transferred to the next process after being formed in the mold, but this transfer process is very troublesome, because the top of the pointed bottom glass bottle is a pointed bottom, which cannot be placed normally, and the oval structure of the shape is easy to roll, so storage and transfer are very inconvenient, especially when conveyed by a conveyor belt. Since the glass bottle has just been formed at high temperature and the surface is still relatively soft, it will roll when conveyed on the conveyor belt, and the pointed bottom or the bottle body is easily deformed, resulting in a high scrap rate and increased production costs. In order to solve the above problems, this scheme designs a storage and transfer mechanism for pointed bottom glass bottles, which is supported by a support frame, and a support plate is arranged above the support frame, and the support plate is connected to the top of the support frame. A plurality of through holes are formed in the top of the support plate, and mounting sleeves are installed in the through holes. The bottle is transferred to the installation sleeve by the clamp, and the structure of the installation sleeve is utilized to achieve outer wall contact without deformation, thereby ensuring the qualified rate and reducing the cost. At the same time, a power mechanism is installed on the support frame, and the power mechanism is connected to the support disk, and the power mechanism can drive the support disk to rotate along its own axis, which forms continuous cyclic storage and transfer at different positions. After the pointed bottom glass bottle is formed in the mold, the clamp clamps it out of the mold and transfers it to the corresponding installation sleeve. The rotation of the power mechanism drives the support disk to rotate one station, and the molding mold rotates accordingly, so that the next formed pointed bottom glass bottle is taken out and placed in the installation sleeve. Through such continuous action, the pointed bottom glass bottle has sufficient cooling and storage time, which just matches the action of the molding mold, and the storage and transfer processes will not be deformed, thereby improving the qualified rate and reducing the production cost.

[0007] Furthermore, the inner cavity of the mounting sleeve is in a funnel-shaped structure, and the end with a larger opening faces upward, and the inner cavity wall is concave to form a plurality of through grooves, which are evenly distributed around the axis. Since the body of the pointed bottom glass bottle is elliptical in shape, in order to place it more stably, the inner cavity of the mounting sleeve is designed to be in a funnel-shaped structure, with the end with a larger opening facing upward. After being clamped out of the mold and put down, it can fit the bottle body just right by its own gravity to reduce deformation. At the same time, the inner cavity wall is concave to form a plurality of through grooves, which are evenly distributed around the axis. The through grooves form ventilation grooves, which can form air circulation, so that the bottle body can cool down and harden as soon as possible.

[0008] Furthermore, a mounting plate is provided on the support frame, and the mounting plate is located below the support disk, the mounting plate is fixed to the support frame, the power mechanism is located between the mounting plate and the support disk, and the bottom of the power mechanism is mounted on the mounting plate. The mounting plate serves as a mounting support component for the power mechanism, and the power mechanism is preferably a motor, thereby driving the rotation of the support disk.

[0009] Furthermore, the bottom of the support plate is concave to form an annular groove, and the through hole is located in the inner circle of the annular groove. A guide column is arranged on the top of the support frame, and the guide column is inserted into the annular groove. When the support plate rotates, the guide column is always located in the annular groove. In order to make the support plate rotate smoothly and continuously, the annular groove and the guide column are designed. The guide column is fixed on the top of the support frame. The combination of the annular groove and the guide column limits the rotation direction and speed of the support plate, so as to avoid the centrifugal force being too large to cause the pointed bottom glass bottle to be thrown out of the installation sleeve.

[0010] Furthermore, the through holes are located on the same circumference and are evenly distributed around the axis of the support plate, so that the formed glass bottles are always in the same position during rotation, thus ensuring the accuracy of the work.

[0011] In summary, compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0012] (1) In this scheme, the clamp clamps the formed pointed bottom glass bottle out of the mold and transfers it to the corresponding installation sleeve. The power mechanism rotates to drive the support plate to rotate one station, and the molding mold rotates accordingly, so that the next formed pointed bottom glass bottle is taken out and placed in the installation sleeve. Through this continuous action, the pointed bottom glass bottle has enough cooling and storage time, which just matches the action of the molding mold. In addition, the storage and transfer processes will not be deformed, which improves the qualified rate and reduces the production cost.

[0013] (2) This solution limits the rotation direction and speed of the support plate through the combination of the annular groove and the guide column, thereby preventing the pointed bottom glass bottle from being thrown out of the installation sleeve due to excessive centrifugal force.

[0014] (3) In order to place it more stably, the inner cavity of the mounting sleeve is designed to be funnel-shaped, with the larger opening facing upward. After being clamped out of the mold and put down, it can fit the bottle body exactly by its own gravity to reduce deformation. At the same time, a number of through grooves are formed in the inner cavity wall, and they are evenly distributed around the axis. The through grooves are ventilation grooves that can form air circulation, so that the bottle body can cool down and harden as quickly as possible. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0020] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the utility model more clearly understood, the utility model is further described in detail below in conjunction with embodiments and drawings. The schematic specific implementation methods of the utility model and their descriptions are only used to explain the utility model and are not intended to limit the utility model.

[0021] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, this embodiment includes a support frame 6, which is formed of a triangular pyramid structure by combining three steel pipes. The steel pipes are connected by ribs to ensure the stability of the steel pipes. A support plate 1 is arranged above the support frame 6. The top of the support plate 1 is concave to form eight through holes 7. At the same time, the through holes 7 are designed to be located on the same circumference, and the through holes 7 are evenly distributed around the axis of the support plate 1. Since the position of the clamp gripper is fixed, the forming mold is rotated in the mold so that the formed pointed bottom glass bottle is located near the support plate 1. The clamp gripper can then clamp the formed pointed bottom glass bottle from the forming mold and place it in the nearby vacant through hole 7, and then rotate the support plate 1 to place the next vacant through hole 7 at the corresponding station to wait. Therefore, it is necessary to set the through holes 7 on the same circumference around the center, and the angles between adjacent through holes 7 are the same, so that the formed glass bottle is always in the same position during rotation, ensuring the accuracy and continuity of the work.

[0022] A mounting sleeve 2 is installed in each through hole 7. The inner cavity of the mounting sleeve 2 is a funnel-shaped structure, and the end with a larger opening faces upward. The inclined inner cavity surface matches the curvature of the bottle body, so that the formed pointed bottom glass bottle is clamped out of the mold and placed in the mounting sleeve 2. The bottle body can fit exactly with the inner cavity surface of the mounting sleeve 2 by utilizing its own gravity to reduce deformation. At the same time, a plurality of through grooves 3 are formed in the inner cavity wall surface and are evenly distributed around the axis. The through grooves 3 are ventilation grooves that can form air circulation, so that the bottle body can cool down and harden as soon as possible, and at the same time, the contact area between the inner cavity surface and the bottle body is reduced to prevent large-scale bonding.

[0023] A power mechanism 4 is mounted on the support frame 6. The power mechanism 4 preferably uses a motor. The shaft of the power mechanism 4 is connected to the support disc 1, and the power mechanism 4 can drive the support disc 1 to rotate along its own axis. The power mechanism 4 drives the support disc 1 to rotate. In order to have enough installation position for the power mechanism 4 and to fix it, a mounting plate 5 is provided on the support frame 6. The mounting plate 5 is located below the support disc 1. The mounting plate 5 is fixed to the support frame 6. The power mechanism 4 is located between the mounting plate 5 and the support disc 1, and the bottom of the power mechanism 4 is mounted on the mounting plate 5. The mounting plate 5 is also welded and fixed to three steel pipes to ensure its firmness and stability.

[0024] The bottom of the support plate 1 is concave to form an annular groove 8, and the through hole 7 is located in the inner circle of the annular groove 8. A guide column is arranged on the top of the support frame 6, and the guide column is inserted into the annular groove 8. When the support plate 1 rotates, the guide column is always located in the annular groove 8. In order to make the support plate rotate smoothly and continuously, the annular groove and the guide column are designed. The guide column is fixed on the top of each steel pipe. Through the combination of the annular groove 8 and the guide column, the rotation direction and speed of the support plate 1 are limited to avoid the centrifugal force being too large to cause the pointed bottom glass bottle to be thrown out of the installation sleeve 2. At the same time, it also plays a supporting function for the support plate 1, ensuring the stability of the entire structure.

[0025] This solution achieves support and protection for the bottle body and bottle bottom during storage through the cavity structure of the mounting sleeve 2, prevents deformation of the bottle body or bottle bottom caused by impact, and the through groove 3 is also suitable for cooling. The design of multiple mounting sleeves 2 is just suitable for the storage of pointed bottom glass bottles after forming. The storage space and time are increased by changing the work station, which is convenient for cooling the pointed bottom glass bottles. When rotating to the next processing step, the temperature drops to the required range.

[0026] The above specific implementation methods further illustrate the purpose, technical solutions and beneficial effects of the utility model in detail. It should be understood that the above are only specific implementation methods of the utility model and are not used to limit the protection scope of the utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the utility model should be included in the protection scope of the utility model.
