DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0031] The following is combined with Figure 1-5 This application is described in further detail.
[0032] The embodiment of the present application discloses an automatic feeding mechanism.
[0033] Example 1
[0034] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 An automatic feeding mechanism includes a frame 1, a sliding mechanism 2 and a grabbing mechanism 3. The sliding mechanism 2 is connected to the frame 1, and the sliding mechanism 2 includes a vertical sliding member 21 and a transverse sliding member 22. The transverse sliding member 22 is connected to the frame 1, and the vertical sliding member 21 is connected to the transverse sliding member 22. The grabbing mechanism 3 includes a connecting member 31, a suction cup 32 and a buffer member 33. The connecting member 31 is connected to the vertical sliding member 21. A plurality of suction cups 32 are provided, and the plurality of suction cups 32 are all connected to the connecting member 31. The buffer member 33 is provided with a plurality of buffer grooves 331, and the plurality of buffer grooves 331 correspond to the plurality of suction cups 32 one by one. The groove wall of the buffer groove 331 is used for the outer wall of the container bottle to abut, and the outer wall of the buffer member 33 is used for the inner wall of the box body to abut. When grabbing a container bottle, the suction cup 32 is controlled by the sliding mechanism 2 to move toward the container bottle. When the suction cup 32 approaches the bottle cap of the container bottle, the buffer member 33 is inserted between adjacent container bottles, and the groove wall of the buffer groove 331 gradually abuts against the outer wall of the container bottle, so that friction is generated between the buffer member 33 and the container bottle; when the container bottle is packed into a box, friction is generated between the outer wall of the buffer member 33 and the inner wall of the box body, so that the buffer member 33 plays a certain buffering role on the sliding mechanism 2 and the grabbing mechanism 3 during the grabbing and packing processes.
[0035] The buffer member 33 is formed by cutting various sponge blocks or foam blocks, has low cost, can generate greater friction with the container bottle, and has less wear on the container bottle.
[0036] In this embodiment, the buffer member 33 is detachably connected to the connecting member 31 by bolts, so that different buffer members 33 can be replaced according to different box sizes or different intervals between container bottles. In other embodiments, the buffer member 33 can also be bonded and fixed to the connecting member 31, and can be replaced together with the connecting member 31.
[0037] Reference Figure 2 The wall of the buffer member 33 between adjacent buffer grooves 331 is defined as a buffer wall 332, and an exhaust groove 333 is formed through the buffer wall 332. The end of the exhaust groove 333 passes through the surface of the buffer wall 332 away from the suction cup 32. With this design, during the process of packing the container bottle, when the buffer wall 332 is inserted into the box body, the gas in the box body is gradually compressed, and the exhaust groove 333 plays a certain exhaust role in this process, thereby taking into account the smoothness of grabbing and packing.
[0038] Furthermore, a guide tip 334 is provided on the surface of the buffer 33 away from the connecting member 31 to facilitate guidance during the grabbing and packing process, thereby reducing the risk of the buffer 33 getting stuck due to deformation.
[0039] The implementation principle of Example 1 is as follows: When loading container bottles, the horizontal sliding member 22 drives the gripping mechanism 3 to move above the container bottles to be loaded, and then the vertical sliding member 21 drives the gripping mechanism 3 to approach the container bottles, and the buffer member 33 is inserted into the gap between adjacent container bottles and gradually abuts against the outer wall of the container bottles until the suction cup 32 is adsorbed on the bottle cap of the container bottle;
[0040] Afterwards, the sliding mechanism 2 drives the grasping mechanism 3 to move to the top of the box body for packing. During packing, the buffer 33 moves toward the box body, and the buffer 33 is inserted into the box body, with the outer wall abutting against the inner wall of the box body until the suction cup 32 is separated from the container bottle. The buffer 33 is used to buffer the sliding mechanism 2, the container bottle and the box body during the above-mentioned grasping and packing process, so as to extend the service life of the feeding mechanism.
[0041] Example 2
[0042] Reference Figure 3 The difference between this embodiment and the embodiment 1 is that the grasping mechanism 3 further includes a plurality of support rods 34, which are all connected to the buffer 33, and the support rods 34 are extended along the thickness direction of the buffer 33. The hardness of the support rods 34 is greater than the hardness of the buffer 33, so that the support rods 34 form a certain support for the buffer 33, further reducing the risk of deformation of the buffer 33 during the grasping and packing process.
[0043] Specifically, a plurality of support rods 34 correspond to a plurality of buffer walls 332 , and the support rods 34 are embedded in the buffer walls 332 , so that the support rods 34 are wrapped by the buffer walls 332 , so that the support rods 34 can play a supporting role without causing wear to the container bottle.
[0044] The support rod 34 and the connecting member 31 may be connected by threaded connection, welding or adhesive fixation.
[0045] Further, see Figure 4 , the plurality of support rods 34 are rigidly connected to the connecting member 31 to ensure the connection strength between the support rods 34 and the connecting member 31. The buffer 33 is provided with a plurality of through holes 338, which correspond one by one to the plurality of support rods 34, so as to facilitate the connection between the buffer 33 and the connecting member 31. In order to further reduce the risk of deformation of the buffer 33 during the grabbing and packing process, after the buffer 33 is installed, an adhesive can be poured into the through holes 338 so that the support rods 34 and the buffer 33 are fixedly connected.
[0046] Further, see Figure 4 The buffer wall 332 is penetrated by a through hole 335, which is connected to the through hole 338. A plurality of through holes 335 are provided, and the plurality of through holes 335 are arranged at intervals along the length direction of the through hole 338. On the one hand, the support rod 34 is vented when it is inserted, so as to facilitate the insertion; on the other hand, after the support rod 34 is inserted into the through hole 338, glue is poured from the through hole 335, so as to facilitate the operation.
[0047] Example 3
[0048] Reference Figure 5 The difference between this embodiment and the first embodiment is that the buffer 33 includes a plastic frame 336 and a sponge layer 337. The sponge layer 337 is bonded and fixed to the outer surface of the plastic frame 336. The plastic frame 336 supports the sponge layer 337. The sponge layer 337 is used for the outer wall of the container bottle and the inner wall of the box body to abut. Thus, while protecting the container bottle, the plastic frame 336 with high hardness is used for support and guidance, reducing the risk of deformation of the buffer 33 during the grabbing and packing process.
[0049] 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.
