Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of material conveying and processing, in particular to an efficient bottle separation mechanism for accurately conveying materials in tight and loose areas. Background Art

[0002] In the field of material conveying, especially for the conveying of bottle-shaped objects, it is often necessary to transform the materials from a tightly packed state to a loosely packed state, or to efficiently convert between these two states.

[0003] Tight arrangement usually means that there is almost no gap between materials, such as bottles stacked tightly in a bottle conveyor track; while loose arrangement means that there is a certain distance between materials to facilitate subsequent processing, such as multiple bottles have a certain distance between each other to meet the needs of array filling.

[0004] In the prior art, the conversion from tight to loose is mainly handled by some basic mechanical separation devices. For example, it is achieved by changing the speed of the conveyor belt or setting a fixed baffle. However, these methods often expose many shortcomings in practical applications.

[0005] First, from the perspective of efficiency, these methods are often difficult to adapt to the needs of high-speed production lines. On high-speed production lines, the inertia of bottles and the friction between them will increase significantly, which will cause the bottles to easily fall over, collide and break, or get stuck in the device when using baffles for separation. This not only reduces production efficiency, but also increases material loss and production costs.

[0006] Secondly, from the perspective of accuracy, the bottle separation mechanism in the prior art often lacks sufficient accuracy. In actual operation, it is difficult to ensure that each bottle can enter the next process with the correct spacing and posture. This problem is particularly prominent on the filling line. Since multiple filling heads are usually arranged in an array with equal spacing, if the bottle cannot enter under the filling head with the correct spacing, it will cause filling failure or waste. This not only affects the efficiency of subsequent processes, but may also lead to unstable product quality, such as insufficient filling or overflow.

[0007] In addition, as consumers' requirements for product quality and packaging continue to increase, the problem of material damage during transportation has become increasingly prominent. Especially on high-speed, large-scale production lines, material damage will not only lead to a decrease in product qualification rate, but may also cause customer complaints and damage the brand image.

[0008] Therefore, for bottle-shaped objects on the assembly line, how to more accurately and efficiently transport materials between tight and loose areas while reducing material damage and improving conversion efficiency has become a technical problem to be solved by the utility model.

Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0049] See also Figure 1—5. In the embodiment of the utility model, an efficient bottle separation mechanism for accurately conveying materials in tight and loose areas includes a support plate seat 1, a first slide rail 2, a second slide rail 3, a first pulley 4, a connecting plate 5, a cylinder 6, a second pulley 7, a bottle mouth limiting plate 8, a supporting rotating column 9, a connecting rod 10, a rotating shaft 11, a vertical connecting plate 12, a bracket seat 13, a first U-shaped plate 14, a second U-shaped plate 15, a first bottle mouth limiting plate 16 and a second bottle mouth limiting plate 17.

[0050] A first slide rail 2 is fixedly disposed on the upper surface of the support plate seat 1 , and a second slide rail 3 is fixedly disposed on the lower surface of the support plate seat 1 ; a first pulley 4 slidably matched with the first slide rail 2 is disposed on the first slide rail 2 .

[0051] The tail of the first pulley 4 is fixedly provided with a cylinder 6 through a connecting plate 5, and the shape of the connecting plate 5 can be L-shaped; the cylinder 6 includes a cylinder rod 18, and the push end of the cylinder rod 18 is fixedly connected to the first pulley 4; the second slide rail 3 is provided with a second pulley 7 that slides with the second slide rail 3; the number of the second pulleys 7 is more than 3; the second pulley 7 is fixedly provided with a bottle mouth limiting plate 8; one side of the bottle mouth limiting plate 8 is provided with a bottle mouth limiting groove 19, and the other side of the bottle mouth limiting plate 8 is fixedly provided with a supporting rotating column 9;

[0052] The number of connecting rods 10 is equal to the number of bottle mouth limiting plates 8; a rotating hole matching with the connecting rod 10 is provided in the middle of the connecting rod 10; the connecting rod 10 is connected with the supporting rotating column 9 by rotating through the rotating hole; the rotating shaft 11 between two adjacent connecting rods 10 is rotated and matched; the first pulley 4 is fixedly connected with the bottle mouth limiting plate 8 on the rightmost side of the second slide rail 3 through the vertical connecting plate 12; at the same time, as shown in the attached Figure 5 As shown, the structures of the second pulleys 7 and the connecting rods 10 are the same to facilitate equidistant matching, which are all extended implementation methods known to ordinary technicians in this field.

[0053] A bracket seat 13 is fixedly arranged on the support plate seat 1; the first U-shaped plate 14 and the second U-shaped plate 15 respectively include a U-shaped bottom, a first U-shaped top and a second U-shaped top; the U-shaped bottoms of the first U-shaped plate 14 and the second U-shaped plate 15 are respectively fixedly connected to the bracket seat 13; the first U-shaped tops of the first U-shaped plate 14 and the second U-shaped plate 15 are respectively fixedly connected to the first bottle mouth limiting plate 16; the second U-shaped tops of the first U-shaped plate 14 and the second U-shaped plate 15 are respectively fixedly connected to the second bottle mouth limiting plate 17; a bottle mouth limiting channel 20 is formed between the first U-shaped plate 14 and the second U-shaped plate 15.

[0054] More than three second pulleys 7 are respectively located between the first U-shaped plate 14 and the second U-shaped plate 15; the number of second pulleys 7 is eight; the outer surface of the supporting rotating column 9 is provided with a wear-resistant material layer; each edge corner of the bottle mouth limiting groove 19 is respectively provided with an arc transition; the first pulley 4 and the second pulley 7 have the same sliding direction.

[0055] In the present application, the cylinder 6 is used as a power source, and the push of the cylinder rod 18 is the key to the movement of the entire mechanism. When the cylinder rod 18 pushes, it drives the first pulley 4 to slide on the first slide rail. Since the first pulley 4 and the second pulley 7 are fixedly connected by a vertical connecting plate, the movement of the first pulley 4 will synchronously drive the second pulley 7 to slide on the second slide rail.

[0056] Importantly, there are multiple second pulleys 7, and they are connected to each other through connecting rods. This design allows the other second pulleys 7 to be equally spaced apart or retracted together through the connecting rod when one of the second pulleys 7 moves. The size of this equidistant movement, that is, the spacing between each bottle 21, can be set according to actual needs. Specifically, by adjusting the length of the connecting rod, the connection angle, and the pushing distance of the cylinder 6, a person skilled in the art can easily achieve precise control of the spacing between the bottles 21.

[0057] For example, if the production line requires bottles 21 to enter the next process at a larger spacing, the pushing distance of the cylinder 6 can be appropriately increased, and the length and connection angle of the connecting rod can be adjusted at the same time, so that the second pulley 7 drives the bottle mouth limit plate 8 to expand a larger distance. On the contrary, if the bottles 21 need to be arranged at a smaller spacing, the pushing distance of the cylinder 6 can be reduced and the setting of the connecting rod can be adjusted accordingly. Based on this principle, the equidistant movement, bottle spacing, and cylinder pushing distance in this application can all be set and adjusted according to actual needs. These are all existing technologies that ordinary technicians in this field can master and use when understanding and implementing this application. Through reasonable settings and adjustments, this application can achieve efficient and accurate transportation of bottles 21 in tight and loose intervals, thereby meeting the needs of various production lines.

[0058] Embodiment 1:

[0059] This embodiment provides an efficient bottle separation mechanism for accurately conveying materials between tight and loose areas, and its structure and working principle are described as follows.

[0060] First, from a structural point of view, the upper and lower surfaces of the support plate seat 1 are respectively fixedly provided with a first slide rail 2 and a second slide rail 3. The first slide rail 2 is equipped with a first pulley 4, and the second slide rail 3 is equipped with more than three second pulleys 7. In this embodiment, in order to better demonstrate its effect, we selected 8 second pulleys 7. Each second pulley 7 is fixedly provided with a bottle mouth limiting plate 8, and one side of these bottle mouth limiting plates 8 is provided with a bottle mouth limiting groove 19, which is used to stably clamp the bottle mouth of the bottle 21 to prevent it from shaking or tipping during transportation. A supporting rotating column 9 is fixedly provided on the other side of the bottle mouth limiting plate 8. These supporting rotating columns 9 are connected to the middle part of the connecting rod 10 by a rotating hole, so that the two adjacent connecting rods 10 can be rotated through the rotating shaft 11. In this way, when one of the bottle mouth limiting plates 8 moves, it can drive the other bottle mouth limiting plates 8 to expand or collapse at equal distances.

[0061] In order to realize this movement, we fixedly connect the first pulley 4 to the rightmost bottle mouth limit plate 8 on the second slide rail 3 through the vertical connecting plate 12. When the cylinder 6 is working, its cylinder rod 18 will drive the first pulley 4 to slide on the first slide rail 2. Since the first pulley 4 is fixedly connected to the rightmost bottle mouth limit plate 8, the movement of the first pulley 4 will drive this bottle mouth limit plate 8 to move together. The movement of this bottle mouth limit plate 8 will drive other bottle mouth limit plates 8 to expand or retract at equal distances through the connecting rod 10. In this way, we can realize the conversion of closely arranged bottles 21 into loosely arranged bottles 21, or the conversion of loosely arranged bottles 21 into closely arranged bottles 21.

[0062] In order to further improve the accuracy and stability of bottle separation, we also fixedly set a bracket seat 13 on the support plate seat 1, and fixedly connected the first U-shaped plate 14 and the second U-shaped plate 15 on the bracket seat 13. A bottle mouth limiting channel 20 is formed between the two U-shaped plates, which can ensure that the bottles 21 can only be arranged loosely and tightly along the channel, and always maintain the correct posture and spacing during the transportation process, so as to improve the accuracy and stability of bottle separation. At the same time, we also set a wear-resistant material layer on the outer surface of the supporting rotating column 9 of the second pulley 7 to extend its service life and improve its stability. In addition, we also perform arc transition treatment on the edges and corners of the bottle mouth limiting groove 19 to prevent damage to it when clamping the bottle 21.

[0063] From the perspective of application scenarios, the bottle separation mechanism can be widely used in various occasions where bottle-shaped materials need to be conveyed, such as beverage production lines, cosmetic production lines, etc. In these occasions, the bottles 21 often need to be converted from a tightly arranged state to a loosely arranged state for subsequent processing, such as filling, labeling, etc. The use of the bottle separation mechanism provided in this embodiment can greatly improve the conversion efficiency and accuracy, and reduce material loss and production costs.

[0064] For example, on a beverage production line, after being washed and dried, the bottles 21 need to enter the bottle mouth limiting channel 20 formed by the first U-shaped plate 14 and the second U-shaped plate 15 in the filling process in a closely arranged state. In fact, they can only slide forward and backward along the bottle mouth limiting channel 20, and the first baffle 22 known to ordinary technicians in this field in the prior art can be used to limit the front limit position of the bottle 21 moving on the bottle mouth limiting channel 20, and the second baffle 23 can be used to limit the rear limit position, so that the bottle 21 between the first baffle 22 and the second baffle and positioned on the bottle mouth limiting channel 20 is just in a closely arranged state as shown in Figure 4, so as to achieve the effect of limiting use, and the first baffle 22 and the second baffle 23 can be pushed by the cylinder to be in a state where the bottle 21 can be blocked, and the first baffle 22 and the second baffle 23 can be driven by the cylinder to be in a state where the bottle 21 is not blocked, which are all extended implementation methods known to ordinary technicians in this field, and the first baffle 22 and the second baffle 23 can be respectively fixed on the bracket seat 13 by the cylinder, which are all expandable implementation methods according to needs by ordinary technicians in this field.

[0065] When the cylinder 6 is working, its cylinder rod 18 will drive the first pulley 4 to slide on the first slide rail 2, and drive other bottle mouth limit plates 8 to expand at equal distances through the connecting rod 10. In this way, the tightly arranged bottles 21 will be gradually dispersed and enter the filling process with the correct spacing and posture. This not only improves production efficiency, but also ensures that each bottle 21 can be accurately filled, thereby improving product quality and stability. In order to meet the filling process requirements that the bottles 21 enter in a loosely arranged state to ensure that each bottle 21 can be accurately filled, the present application realizes the efficient and smooth conversion of the bottles 21 from tightly arranged to loosely arranged by adopting the pulley and connecting rod 10 mechanism driven by the cylinder 6. The operation of the cylinder 6 drives the pulley to slide on the slide rail, and then the bottle mouth limit plates 8 are expanded or retracted at equal distances through the connecting rod 10 mechanism, which is more conducive to ensuring that each bottle 21 can enter the next process with the correct spacing and array arrangement.
