DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0017] Although the present invention may be described with respect to a specific application or industry, those skilled in the art will recognize the broader applicability of the present invention. Those of ordinary skill in the art will recognize that terms such as: above, below, upward, downward, etc. are used to describe the drawings and do not represent limitations on the scope of the present invention as defined by the appended claims. Any numerical designations such as: first or second are merely exemplary and are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention in any way.

[0018] A beverage filling and conveying mechanism, such as Figure 1-Figure 4 As shown, it includes a belt conveyor 1, a storage box 2, a fixed plate 3, a filling pipe 4, a limit plate 5 and a clamping device. There are two belt conveyors 1. The left belt conveyor 1 is fixedly provided with fixed plates 3 on both sides of the front and rear of the top. The storage box 2 is fixedly provided between the tops of the two fixed plates 3. Two filling pipes 4 are evenly spaced and connected to the bottom of the storage box 2. The right belt conveyor 1 is fixedly provided with limit plates 5 on both sides of the front and rear of the top. A clamping device is installed between the opposite sides of the two belt conveyors 1. The clamping device is used to clamp the container on the right belt conveyor 1 to the left belt conveyor 1, and the container is filled on the left belt conveyor 1.

[0019] When it is necessary to fill and convey the beverage, the left and right belt conveyors 1 and the clamping device are started, and the conveyor belts of the two belt conveyors 1 move from right to left. When the container moves from the right side of the right belt conveyor 1 to the left side and passes through the limit plate 5, the container moves from the two channels of the limit plate 5 to the left side of the right belt conveyor 1 respectively. Since the channel of the limit plate 5 becomes narrower and narrower from right to left, only one container can pass through each channel outlet at last. The first round of containers passing through the limit plate 5 are clamped by the clamping device to the right side of the left belt conveyor 1. The clamping device clamps only two containers from the right belt conveyor 1 each time. The limit plate 5 enables the containers on the belt conveyor 1 to be transported stably, and the left belt conveyor 1 enables the container to move to the left along the conveyor belt. When the container mouth moves to just below the filling pipe 4, the left belt conveyor 1 stops operating, and the filling pipe 4 starts to align the container mouth with the beverage. After the beverage is filled, the left belt conveyor 1 continues to operate to transport the filled container to the next place, thus completing a round of beverage filling and conveying.

[0020] The clamping device includes a base 8, a fixed sleeve 9, a rotating shaft 10, a motor 11, a half gear 12, a full gear 13, a torsion spring 14, a rotating plate 15, a thumb cylinder 16 and a clamp 17. A base 8 is fixedly provided in the middle between the two opposite sides of the two belt conveyors 1, a fixed sleeve 9 is fixedly provided on the top of the base 8, a motor 11 is installed on the top of the base 8, a half gear 12 is installed on the output shaft of the motor 11, a rotating shaft 10 is rotatably provided inside the fixed sleeve 9, a full gear 13 is connected to the middle of the rotating shaft 10, a torsion spring 14 is connected between the full gear 13 and the fixed sleeve 9, and the torsion spring 14 is wound around the outer side of the middle of the rotating shaft 10, a rotating plate 15 is fixedly provided on the upper end of the rotating shaft 10, two thumb cylinders 16 are provided on the left and right sides of the rotating plate 15, and a pair of clamps 17 are installed on the side of each thumb cylinder 16 away from the rotating plate 15.

[0021] Furthermore, when a container passes through the limit plate 5, the clamping jaws 17 of the thumb cylinder 16 open outwards, and when the container moves between the clamping jaws 17, the clamping jaws 17 of the thumb cylinder 16 clamp inwards. After the clamping jaws 17 clamp the container, the motor 11 is started, and the output shaft of the motor 11 drives the half gear 12 to rotate clockwise. When the gear part of the half gear 12 rotates clockwise and meshes with the full gear 13, the full gear 13 drives the rotating shaft 10 and the torsion spring 14 to rotate counterclockwise. The counterclockwise rotation of the rotating shaft 10 drives the rotating plate 15 to rotate counterclockwise, and the counterclockwise rotation of the rotating plate 15 drives the thumb cylinder 16 to rotate counterclockwise. When the toothless part of the half gear 12 is not engaged with the full gear 13, due to the elasticity of the torsion spring 14, the torsion spring 14 will drive the full gear 13 to rotate clockwise, the full gear 13 rotates clockwise to drive the rotating shaft 10 to rotate clockwise, the rotating shaft 10 rotates clockwise to drive the rotating plate 15 to rotate clockwise, the rotating plate 15 rotates clockwise to drive the thumb cylinder 16 to rotate clockwise, the thumb cylinder 16 waits to clamp the next round of containers passing through the limit plate 5, thereby a clockwise and counterclockwise rotation round causes the container to be transferred from the right belt conveyor 1 to the left belt conveyor 1, thereby achieving the purpose of filling and conveying the container.

[0022] Furthermore, it also includes a baffle 7 and a single-acting cylinder 6. The single-acting cylinder 6 is fixedly provided on the front and rear sides of the top of the right belt conveyor 1. The baffle 7 is fixedly connected between the tops of the piston rods of the two single-acting cylinders 6. The baffle 7 moves downward to block the opening on the left side of the limit plate 5. When the container passes through the limit plate 5, the single-acting cylinder 6 is started to move the piston rod downward, and the piston rod of the single-acting cylinder 6 drives the baffle 7 to move downward, so that the baffle 7 blocks the exit on the left side of the limit plate 5, thereby preventing the subsequent containers of the right belt conveyor 1 from passing through the exit on the left side of the limit plate 5 to interfere with the container that has just passed, so that the clamping claw 17 of the thumb cylinder 16 can smoothly clamp only one container at a time.

[0023] Furthermore, a rubber pad 18 is included, and a rubber pad 18 is fixedly provided on one side of each pair of clamping jaws 17 close to each other. When the thumb cylinder 16 clamps the container, the rubber pad 18 can well increase the friction between the clamping jaws 17 and the container, preventing the container from falling from the clamping jaws 17, and also preventing the clamping jaws 17 from damaging the container.

[0024] Furthermore, there is an opening in the middle of the right side of the fixing plate 3. When the thumb cylinder 16 rotates, the clamping claw 17 of the thumb cylinder 16 will pass through the opening of the fixing plate 3. The opening of the fixing plate 3 facilitates the rotation of the thumb cylinder 16 and prevents the thumb cylinder 16 from colliding with the fixing plate 3 when rotating.

[0025] Furthermore, the filling tube 4 is on the same straight line as the center line of the thumb cylinder 16. When the thumb cylinder 16 clamp 17 places the container on the left belt conveyor 1, the container moves to the bottom of the filling tube 4, so that the container mouth faces the filling tube 4, so that the filling tube 4 can fill the beverage more accurately, and prevent the filling tube 4 from filling the beverage outside the container, making the filling environment cleaner and more sanitary.

[0026] Although the present disclosure has been described with respect to only a limited number of embodiments, those skilled in the art having benefit of this disclosure will appreciate that various other embodiments may be designed without departing from the scope of the present invention. Therefore, the scope of the present invention should be limited only by the appended claims.
