[0002] Pillow packaging machine is an automatic continuous packaging equipment, suitable for food industry, pharmaceutical industry, daily necessities and other industries. In the pharmaceutical industry, the produced tablets or capsules are packaged in aluminum-plastic plates through aluminum-plastic packaging. The aluminum-plastic plates are conveyed to the pillow packaging machine through a conveyor belt. The pillow packaging machine uses a cut-and-go method to heat-seal the aluminum-plastic plates containing medicines. The packaged medicine plates are sent to the cartoning machine, which packs the medicine plates, instructions, etc.

[0003] In the prior art, the pillow packing machine has a fast discharging speed and only one discharging port, while the cartoning machine has a slow feeding speed and two feeding ports. After the pillow packing machine completes the packaging of the aluminum-plastic plate, it is manually transported to the cartoning machine for cartoning, which increases the labor intensity of the staff. If a conveyor belt is installed between the pillow packing machine and the cartoning machine, the number of the discharging ports of the pillow packing machine and the feeding ports of the cartoning machine are different. The pillow packing machine has a fast discharging speed, while the cartoning machine has a slow feeding speed, which causes the medicine plates to pile up on the conveyor belt, affecting the subsequent cartoning work and reducing work efficiency.

The second gearbox 301 is provided with a second motor 302, and the second motor 302 drives the second gearbox 301 to run.

[0022] The specific workflow is as follows:

[0023] When the equipment is operating normally, the material comes out from the discharge port 101 of the pillow packing machine and is sensed by the feed sensor 201. The first conveyor belt 2 and the second conveyor belt 3 start to operate. The material is conveyed on the first conveyor belt 2. The material is sensed by the discharge sensor 204 and the material distribution sensor 205 of the pillow packing machine in turn. When the material distribution sensor 205 senses the amount of material passing through the first conveyor belt 2 and the amount of material set in the control device 9, the material distribution lever 401 is driven by the rotating cylinder 402 to shift the material originally on the first conveyor belt 2 to the second conveyor belt 3, so that the material coming out of the pillow packing machine 1 can pass through the first sensor The conveyor belt 2 and the second conveyor belt 3 are transported together, and the control device 9 can set the frequency of the shifting of the material dividing lever 401 according to the material quantity or time interval sensed by the material dividing sensor 205, so that the materials are alternately transported on the first conveyor belt 2 and the second conveyor belt 3, and the materials on the first conveyor belt 2 and the second conveyor belt 3 enter the cartoning machine 8 through the first feed port 801 and the second feed port 802 of the cartoning machine respectively. During this process, the materials are normally transmitted on the first conveyor belt 2 and the second conveyor belt 3 without blockage and accumulation, the handling device does not need to move, and the lifting cylinder 502 does not move at the origin position of the second slot-type photoelectric switch 504.

[0024] When an abnormality occurs in the equipment, the material comes out from the discharge port 101 of the pillow packing machine and is sensed by the feed sensor 201. The first conveyor belt 2 and the second conveyor belt 3 start to operate. The discharge sensor 204 of the pillow packing machine senses the material for a long time. The control device 9 determines that a blockage has occurred and the pillow packing machine 1 stops.

[0025] When the second unloading sensor 303 senses the material for a long time, the third motor 501 drives the lifting cylinder 502 to move from the origin position on the first screw slide 5 toward the second conveyor belt 3. After reaching the top of the second conveyor belt 3, the lifting cylinder 502 descends, and the suction cup grabs the material on the second conveyor belt 3. The lifting cylinder 502 rises and moves toward the third slot-type photoelectric switch 505. After reaching the stop position of the first temporary storage box 6, the lifting cylinder 502 descends, and the grabbed material is placed on the material placement plate 605 of the first temporary storage box 6. After the first temporary storage box sensor 601 senses the presence of the material, the slider 603 moves downward on the second screw slide 602 by the height of the material, and the material placement plate 605 connected to the slider 603 moves downward. The material placed on the material placement plate 605 moves downward, and the material placed on the material placement plate 605 moves downward when the first temporary storage box sensor 601 can no longer sense the presence of the material, and stops moving downward. The slider 603 moves downward each time by a distance equal to the height of a material. The material that is abnormally conveyed on the second conveyor belt 3 is transported by the first screw slide 5 to the first temporary storage box 6 for temporary storage, so as to prevent material blockage on the second conveyor belt 3. When the signal of the second unloading sensor 303 returns to normal without material blockage, and the second unloading sensor 303 can sense no material passing through for a long time, the suction cup takes the material in the first temporary storage box 6 and places it on the second conveyor belt 3, and gradually clears the material in the first temporary storage box 6. After completing the transporting action, the lifting cylinder 502 returns to the origin position of the second slot-type photoelectric switch 504.

[0026] According to the above process, the problem that the number of discharge ports of the pillow packing machine and the feed ports of the cartoning machine are different, the discharge speed of the pillow packing machine is fast, and the feed speed of the cartoning machine is slow, resulting in the accumulation of medicine plates on the conveyor belt, affecting the subsequent cartoning work and reducing work efficiency can be solved.

[0027] To sum up, the linkage device between the pillow packaging machine and the cartoning machine has a simple structure. The first transfer belt is connected to the discharge port of the pillow packaging machine, and the second conveyor belt is added in parallel next to the first conveyor belt. A material dividing device is added to the first conveyor belt and the second conveyor belt to change the material conveying position. The other ends of the first conveyor belt and the second conveyor belt are respectively connected to the two feed ports of the cartoning machine. A conveying mechanism is arranged above the first conveyor belt and the second conveyor belt in front of the feed port of the cartoning machine. A suction cup is arranged on the conveying mechanism, and the suction cup can move left and right on the conveying mechanism. Temporary storage boxes are respectively arranged at the left and right ends of the conveying mechanism. The suction cup can grab the medicine plates accumulated on the first conveyor belt and the second conveyor belt and put them into the temporary storage box, so as to realize the packaging linkage between the pillow packaging machine and the cartoning machine.
