Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of automatic filling mechanisms, in particular to an automatic filling mechanism for oxygen cylinders. Background Art

[0002] The automatic filling mechanism of oxygen cylinders is a device that can fill oxygen into the cylinders. During the operation of the automatic filling mechanism, the control system will first start the conveying system to move the empty container under the filling head, and then open the valve of the filling head through the control system to allow oxygen to flow from the source into the cylinder for filling.

[0003] Before filling the oxygen cylinder, the filling mechanism will use the capping equipment to press the top cover of the oxygen cylinder to the cylinder. Due to the weak structure at the mouth of the tank, the mouth of the oxygen cylinder may be deformed during the capping process. When the deformed cylinder enters the filling area for filling, the oxygen filling may not meet the pressure requirements, resulting in continuous oxygen output and oxygen leakage. Utility Model Content

[0004] The utility model aims to solve the problem that the filling mechanism will connect and compact the top cover of the oxygen cylinder with the cylinder through a capping device before filling the oxygen cylinder. Since the structure at the mouth of the cylinder is relatively weak, the mouth of the oxygen cylinder may be deformed during the capping. When the deformed cylinder enters the filling place for filling, the oxygen filling may not meet the pressure requirement, resulting in continuous output of oxygen and oxygen leakage. An automatic filling mechanism for oxygen cylinders is proposed to solve the problem that the top cover of the oxygen cylinder is connected and compacted with the cylinder through a capping device before filling. Since the structure at the mouth of the cylinder is relatively weak, the mouth of the oxygen cylinder may be deformed during the capping. When the deformed cylinder enters the filling place for filling, the oxygen filling may not meet the pressure requirement, resulting in continuous output of oxygen and oxygen leakage.

[0005] In order to achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the utility model adopts the following technical scheme: an automatic filling mechanism for oxygen cylinders, comprising a conveying mechanism, a filling device is arranged on one side of the conveying mechanism, a detection device is arranged on one side of the conveying mechanism, the detection device comprises a support rod, the bottom end of the support rod is fixedly connected to one side of the top of the conveying mechanism, a detection camera is arranged on one side of the support rod, a first electric telescopic rod is arranged on the top of the support rod, a baffle is fixedly connected to the output end of the first electric telescopic rod, a groove rod is fixedly connected to one side of the conveying mechanism, a first motor is arranged at one end of the groove rod, a screw is fixedly connected to the output end of the first motor, the outer surface of the screw rotates on the inner wall of the groove rod, a sliding rod is threadedly connected to the outer surface of the screw, a top rod is rotatably connected to the top of the sliding rod, a second motor is arranged on the top of the top rod, a second electric telescopic rod is arranged at one end of the top rod, the output end of the second electric telescopic rod is fixedly connected to a groove block, two third electric telescopic rods are arranged on the outer surface of the groove block, and a clamping block is arranged at the output end of the third electric telescopic rod.

[0007] Preferably, a rectangular plate is fixedly connected to the top end of the baffle, and one side of the rectangular plate slides on one side of the support rod.

[0008] The effect achieved by the above components is: when the baffle is controlled to descend by the first electric telescopic rod, the rectangular plate will be between the conveyor belt and the support rod of the conveying mechanism, and the gap between the conveyor belt and the support rod is blocked by the rectangular plate, so as to avoid the clamping block clamping the cylinder and causing the bottom of the cylinder to tilt and get stuck in the gap and fall off.

[0009] Preferably, one side of the rectangular plate is fixedly connected to an L-shaped rod, and one side of the outer surface of the L-shaped rod slides on one side of the support rod.
