Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to a product manual conveying and steering mechanism, belonging to the technical field of manual conveying. Background Art

[0002] There are many forms of pharmaceutical packaging, and boxed products have always been one of the main forms in the market. With the development of industrial technology, traditional manual boxing will gradually be replaced by automatic boxing technology.

[0003] For example, patent CN202020349998.7 discloses a manual feeder for a cartoning machine. The feeder comprises a frame, a manual box obliquely mounted on the upper end of the frame, and a transmission device mounted on the frame and positioned below the manual box. The transmission device comprises a feeder belt, an upper conveyor belt, and a lower conveyor belt. The inner conveying surface of the upper conveyor belt and the outer conveying surface of the lower conveyor belt fit together to form a first conveying channel for clamping and conveying the manuals. The outer end surface of the feeder belt is positioned at the lower end of the manual box and conveys the manuals into the first conveying channel.

[0004] While the aforementioned patent can deliver instructions to the first conveying channel, the current technical considerations are incomplete and present the following drawbacks: While instruction sheet conveying and cartoning technology is mature in automatic cartoning applications, the lateral conveying of instructions can cause damage and misplaced delivery. This can severely impact production continuity, resulting in wasteful production and increased operating costs, hindering the widespread adoption of automatic cartoning technology. This research and development will address the challenge of converting the lateral to longitudinal conveying of instructions for automatic cartoning machines, a problem plaguing the industry.

[0005] In order to solve one of the above problems, a product manual conveying and steering mechanism is urgently needed. Utility Model Content

[0006] In view of the above deficiencies in the prior art, the technical problem to be solved by the present invention is: how to realize the transformation from horizontal conveying of instruction manuals to vertical conveying, and to this end, a product instruction manual conveying steering mechanism is provided.

[0007] The product manual conveying and steering mechanism described in the present invention includes a support base and a first fixed frame and a second fixed frame installed on the support base. The first fixed frame is installed with a transverse belt conveyor mechanism, and the second fixed frame is installed with a transverse to longitudinal transfer device that receives the material fed by the transverse belt conveyor mechanism.

[0008] The product instructions are transferred from the horizontal belt conveyor mechanism to the horizontal to vertical transfer device, solving the problem that the automatic cartoning machine's product instructions are transformed from horizontal to vertical conveying, which has plagued the automatic cartoning industry.

[0009] Preferably, the horizontal to vertical transfer device includes a horizontal to vertical outer conveying belt, a horizontal to vertical inner conveying belt, and a first driving wheel and a second driving wheel arranged side by side. The first driving wheel and the second driving wheel are respectively provided with a first reversing wheel and a second reversing wheel below them, and a first driven wheel and a second driven wheel are respectively provided on the right side of the first reversing wheel and the second reversing wheel. The horizontal to vertical inner conveying belt passes around the second driving wheel, the second reversing wheel and the second driven wheel in sequence to form a closed loop, and the horizontal to vertical outer conveying belt passes around the first driving wheel, the first reversing wheel, the first driven wheel A closed loop is formed, and the transverse-to-longitudinal outer conveying belt is on the outer side of the transverse-to-longitudinal inner conveying belt and passes around the second reversing wheel at the same time. The transmission surfaces of the transverse-to-longitudinal outer conveying belt and the transverse-to-longitudinal inner conveying belt fit together to form a vertical conveying channel and a first horizontal conveying channel for clamping and conveying the instructions. The vertical conveying channel and the first horizontal conveying channel are connected by a transition of an arc-shaped conveying channel. A lifting cylinder for driving the roller to approach or move away from the transverse-to-longitudinal inner conveying belt is installed on the support base below the second driven wheel.

[0010] The transverse belt conveyor mechanism delivers the instructions to the bottom of the roller. The lifting cylinder controls the lifting of the roller, assisting the instructions to enter the first horizontal conveying channel. Then, the instructions are redirected at the curved conveying channel to enter the vertical conveying channel, solving the problem of converting the horizontal conveying of product instructions of automatic cartoning machines into vertical conveying, which has plagued the automatic cartoning industry.

[0011] Preferably, the first reversing wheel, the second reversing wheel, the first driven wheel and the second driven wheel are rotatably mounted on corresponding wheel axles respectively, and all wheel axles are fixed on the second fixed frame. The first driving wheel and the second driving wheel are directly connected to the drive motor A fixed on the second fixed frame respectively. The two sets of drive motors A rotate in opposite directions and respectively drive the horizontal to longitudinal outer conveying belt and the horizontal to longitudinal inner conveying belt to run at the same speed.

[0012] Preferably, the first fixed frame is equipped with an incoming material sensor for detecting incoming instruction manuals, and also includes a reversing solenoid valve for controlling the lifting of a lifting cylinder. The incoming material sensor and the reversing solenoid valve are electrically connected to the signal input and signal output terminals of the controller, respectively. The incoming material sensor is a manual detection photoelectric device, also known as a steering photoelectric device. When the instruction manual is conveyed to a position below the detection photoelectric device, the instruction manual also reaches above the roller. The controller controls the reversing solenoid valve to raise the roller. The raised instruction manual increases the friction between the instruction manual and the conveying surface of the inner horizontal to longitudinal conveyor belt, causing the instruction manual to be conveyed into the first horizontal conveying channel. Once the instruction manual is conveyed into the first horizontal conveying channel, the lifting cylinder controls the roller to lower and reset. The controller is a single-chip microcomputer or a programmable logic controller.

[0013] Preferably, the transverse belt conveying mechanism includes an upper transverse conveying belt and a lower transverse conveying belt, and the lower conveying surface of the upper transverse conveying belt and the upper conveying surface of the lower transverse conveying belt are fitted together to form a second horizontal conveying channel for clamping and conveying the instructions.

[0014] The existing paper folding machine is used to suck the instructions and convey them to the first conveying channel between the two transverse conveyor belts. As the instructions are transferred to the top of the roller on the transverse belt conveyor mechanism, the incoming material sensor can also detect the incoming material, completing the operation of conveying the instructions to the feed side of the transverse to longitudinal transfer device through the transverse belt conveyor mechanism.

[0015] Preferably, the upper transverse conveying belt is respectively wound around the third driving wheel and the third driven wheel, and the lower transverse conveying belt is respectively wound around the fourth driving wheel and the fourth driven wheel, and the third driven wheel and the fourth driven wheel are respectively rotatably mounted on the corresponding wheel axles, and all wheel axles are fixed on the first fixed frame, and the third driving wheel and the fourth driving wheel are respectively directly connected to the driving motor B fixed on the first fixed frame, and the two sets of driving motors B rotate in opposite directions, and respectively drive the upper transverse conveying belt and the lower transverse conveying belt to run synchronously and at the same speed.

[0019] The product instruction sheet conveying and diverting mechanism of the utility model promotes the development of automatic cartoning machines, solves product quality problems caused by instruction sheet damage and inadequate conveying, reduces the defective product rate of automatic cartoning machines, reduces operating costs, and improves equipment operation stability.

Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the scope of protection of the present invention.

The first fixed frame 2 is installed with a transverse belt conveyor mechanism 4, and the second fixed frame 3 is installed with a transverse to longitudinal transfer device that receives the material fed by the transverse belt conveyor mechanism 4.

[0026] The product instructions are transferred from the transverse belt conveyor mechanism 4 to the transverse to longitudinal transfer device, solving the problem that the automatic cartoning machine's product instructions are converted from transverse conveying to longitudinal conveying, which has troubled the automatic cartoning industry.

[0027] Example 1, as Figure 1-2 As shown, the product manual conveying and steering mechanism includes a support base 1 and a first fixed frame 2 and a second fixed frame 3 installed on the support base 1. The first fixed frame 2 is installed with a transverse belt conveyor mechanism 4, and the second fixed frame 3 is installed with a transverse to longitudinal transfer device that receives the material fed by the transverse belt conveyor mechanism 4.

[0028] Furthermore, the horizontal to vertical transfer device includes a horizontal to vertical outer conveying belt 14, a horizontal to vertical inner conveying belt 15, and a first driving wheel 6 and a second driving wheel 7 arranged side by side. The first driving wheel 6 and the second driving wheel 7 are respectively provided with a first reversing wheel 8 and a second reversing wheel 9 below them, and a first driven wheel 10 and a second driven wheel 11 are respectively provided on the right side of the first reversing wheel 8 and the second reversing wheel 9. The horizontal to vertical inner conveying belt 15 passes around the second driving wheel 7, the second reversing wheel 9 and the second driven wheel 11 in sequence to form a closed loop, and the horizontal to vertical outer conveying belt 14 passes around the first driving wheel 6, the first reversing wheel 8, the first The driven wheel 10 forms a closed loop, and the transverse-to-longitudinal outer conveying belt 14 is located on the outer side of the transverse-to-longitudinal inner conveying belt 15 and passes around the second reversing wheel 9 at the same time as the transverse-to-longitudinal inner conveying belt 15. The conveying surfaces of the transverse-to-longitudinal outer conveying belt 14 and the transverse-to-longitudinal inner conveying belt 15 are fitted together to form a vertical conveying channel and a first horizontal conveying channel for clamping and conveying the instructions. The vertical conveying channel and the first horizontal conveying channel are connected by a transition arc conveying channel. A lifting cylinder 12 is installed on the support base 1 below the second driven wheel 11 to drive the roller 13 to approach or move away from the transverse-to-longitudinal inner conveying belt 15.

[0029] The transverse belt conveyor mechanism 4 delivers the instruction manual to the bottom of the roller 13. The lifting cylinder 12 controls the lifting of the roller 13, assisting the instruction manual to enter the first horizontal conveying channel and then change direction at the arc conveying channel to enter the vertical conveying channel, solving the problem of converting the transverse conveying of the product instruction manual of the automatic cartoning machine into the longitudinal conveying, which has been plaguing the automatic cartoning industry.

[0030] Furthermore, the first reversing wheel 8, the second reversing wheel 9, the first driven wheel 10 and the second driven wheel 11 are respectively rotatably mounted on the corresponding wheel axles, and all the wheel axles are fixed on the second fixed frame 3. The first driving wheel 6 and the second driving wheel 7 are directly connected to the drive motor A fixed on the second fixed frame 3. The two sets of drive motors A rotate in opposite directions and respectively drive the horizontal to longitudinal outer conveying belt 14 and the horizontal to longitudinal inner conveying belt 15 to run at the same speed.

[0031] Furthermore, the first fixed frame 2 is mounted with an incoming material sensor 5 for detecting incoming instruction manuals, and a reversing solenoid valve for controlling the raising and lowering of the lifting cylinder 12. The incoming material sensor 5 and the reversing solenoid valve are electrically connected to the controller's signal input and signal output terminals, respectively. The incoming material sensor 5 is a manual detection photoelectric device, also known as a steering photoelectric device. When the instruction manual is conveyed to a position below the detection photoelectric device, it also reaches above the roller 13. The controller controls the reversing solenoid valve to raise the roller 13. Once the instruction manual is raised, the friction between the instruction manual and the conveying surface of the transverse-to-longitudinal inner conveyor belt 15 increases, causing the instruction manual to be conveyed into the first horizontal conveying channel. Once the instruction manual is conveyed into the first horizontal conveying channel, the lifting cylinder 12 controls the roller 13 to fall and reset again. The controller is a single-chip microcomputer or a programmable logic controller.

[0032] The present invention relates to an embodiment of the present invention, in which the modification of the prior art by this specific implementation method lies in the hardware part. Meanwhile, the computer program involved is a simple program that can be easily implemented by those skilled in the art using an existing computer program development platform and well-known programming methods.

[0033] Herein, the controller of the incoming material sensor 5 and the reversing solenoid valve not shown are only a simple use of their functions and do not involve improvements to the method and procedure, etc. The incoming material sensor 5 can also use a proximity switch.

[0034] Furthermore, the transverse belt conveying mechanism 4 includes an upper transverse conveying belt and a lower transverse conveying belt. The lower conveying surface of the upper transverse conveying belt and the upper conveying surface of the lower transverse conveying belt are fitted together to form a second horizontal conveying channel for clamping and conveying the instructions.

[0035] The existing paper folding machine is used to suck the instructions and convey them to the first conveying channel between the two transverse conveyor belts. As the instructions are transferred to the top of the roller 13 on the transverse belt conveyor mechanism 4, the incoming material sensor 5 can also detect the incoming material, completing the operation of conveying the instructions to the feed side of the transverse to longitudinal transfer device through the transverse belt conveyor mechanism 4.

[0036] Furthermore, the upper transverse conveyor belt is respectively wound around a third driving wheel and a third driven wheel, while the lower transverse conveyor belt is respectively wound around a fourth driving wheel and a fourth driven wheel. The third driven wheel and the fourth driven wheel are rotatably mounted on corresponding axles, and all axles are fixed to the first fixed frame 2. The third driving wheel and the fourth driving wheel are respectively directly connected to the drive motor B fixed to the first fixed frame 2. The two sets of drive motors B rotate in opposite directions and respectively drive the upper and lower transverse conveyor belts to operate synchronously and at the same speed. Drive motors A and B are both existing structures and are not shown in the drawings.

[0037] Furthermore, the first driving wheel and the second driven wheel are respectively driven by direct connection with existing motors.

[0038] In Example 3, the instructions are transported longitudinally on a horizontal to vertical transfer device. When the instructions are about to leave the vertical conveying channel, an intermediate wheel conveying mechanism is added above the vertical conveying channel to reduce conveying obstacles and improve the stability of instruction sheet transportation. In the process of conveying the instructions to the boxing station, they are directly pushed into the paper box by a medicine pusher to complete the boxing of the finished product.

[0039] Technical advantages:

[0040] 1. Compared with the original lateral conveying of instructions, it solves the quality problems of instruction manual deformation, damage, etc.

[0041] 2. The success rate of instruction manual boxing is high, which improves production efficiency and reduces operating costs.
