Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of bottle washing machines, in particular to a bump block of a bottle washing machine and the bottle washing machine. Background Art
[0002] Bottle washing machines can automatically wash bottles in batches and are widely used in the pharmaceutical field. These bottles include but are not limited to small-capacity bottles used to hold oral liquids or freeze-dried powders.
[0003] The general process of bottle washing in some bottle washing machines includes: the bottle feeding mechanism sends the bottle to the spray box, the circulating water sprayed from the spray box fills the bottle, and then it is roughly washed by ultrasonic vibration to make the large particles of impurities attached to the bottle fall off. After the rough ultrasonic washing, the bottle is sent into the clamping claw of the bottle clamping robot by the corresponding mechanism. The bottle clamping robot can be turned over to put the bottle in an inverted state or an upward state, and the bottle clamping robot can move in a circular direction to different washing stations, which can spray the bottle to further improve the washing effect. After the bottle is washed, the clamping claw opens and puts the bottle in the bottle discharging mechanism to realize the output of the bottle.
[0004] Figure 1 The bump block 10 in the current bottle washing machine is roughly arc-shaped. Due to the wear and tear of the current bottle washing machine and the processing error of the manufacturer, even for the same type of bottle washing machine, the bump block 10 accessories made by the equipment manufacturer are not so compatible with the existing equipment in use by various companies, and it is difficult to meet the precision requirements of different bottle washing machines. Figure 1 When this collision block 10 is installed on different bottle washing machines, it is necessary to perform secondary trimming on the collision block 10, otherwise bottles are easily broken during the washing process. In order to reduce the use problems such as broken bottles, the collision block 10 needs to be fine-tuned. Sometimes the fine-tuning cannot meet the bottle clamping requirements of the bottle clamping robot. It may even be necessary to grind or surfacing the slope of the collision block 10 to make its slope meet the use requirements. The surfacing parts have insufficient material strength and excessive loss during the trial period, which will lead to the need for frequent adjustment or processing. Utility Model Content

[0017] Optionally, each of the sub-collision blocks has at least two fixing holes, and the fixing holes are used for fasteners to pass through to fix the sub-collision block, and at least two of the fixing holes are distributed along the circumferential direction of the rotating body.

[0024] Optionally, the bottle washing machine further comprises: a bump block base surrounding the rotating body, and the sub-bump block is detachably mounted on the bump block base.
[0025] Effect of utility model
[0026] In the bumper block of the bottle washing machine provided by the embodiment of the present disclosure, at least two separate sub-bumpers form the bumper block, and there is a gap between two adjacent sub-bumpers, so that when adjusting the position of a certain sub-bumper block, the other sub-bumpers will not be affected, and the positions of different sub-bumpers can be flexibly adjusted. The sub-bumper block realizes the collision with the bottle clamping manipulator through the slope segment. When a certain sub-bumper block is frequently worn out by the collision with the bottle clamping manipulator, resulting in the inability of the sub-bumper block to effectively collide with the bottle clamping manipulator, or when a certain sub-bumper block cannot effectively collide with the bottle clamping manipulator due to precision problems, while other sub-bumpers can effectively collide with the manipulator, at this time, only the position of the sub-bumper block can be adjusted, and the other sub-bumpers do not need to be adjusted, thereby ensuring the effectiveness of the slope segments of all sub-bumper blocks and reducing the problem of broken bottles. This method of ensuring the effectiveness of the slope segment by adjusting the problematic sub-bumper block does not require grinding or surfacing of the sub-bumper block, and the sub-bumper block can be fully utilized without frequent adjustment or processing of the bumper block. The bottle washing machine has a high maintenance efficiency and reduces the use and maintenance costs of the bottle washing machine. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0034] In the embodiments of the present disclosure, the terms "first" and "second" are only used for the purpose of clear description and cannot be understood as the relative importance of the indicated features or the number of the indicated technical features. Therefore, the features defined as "first" and "second" can explicitly include at least one of the features. In the description of the embodiments of the present disclosure, the meaning of "multiple" is at least two, such as two, three, etc.; the meaning of "several" is at least one, such as one, two, three, etc., unless otherwise clearly and specifically defined.

For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in the embodiments of the present disclosure can be understood according to the specific circumstances.
[0036] In the embodiments of the present disclosure, unless otherwise clearly defined, a first feature being “on”, “above”, “above”, “below”, “below”, “below” or “below” a second feature may mean that the first feature is in direct contact with the second feature, or the first feature and the second feature are in indirect contact with each other through an intermediate medium.

[0037] like Figure 2 As shown, the embodiment of the present disclosure provides a collision block 100 for a bottle washing machine, and the collision block 100 includes: two sub-collision blocks 110, which can surround the outer side of the rotating body of the bottle washing machine and are distributed in parallel along the circumference of the rotating body, and there is a gap 101 between two adjacent sub-collision blocks 110; the outer side 160 of each sub-collision block 110 close to the bottle clamping robot includes a slope section 120 and a concave section 130; the slope section 120 protrudes toward the bottle clamping robot of the bottle washing machine to collide with the bottle clamping robot.
[0038] The bottle clamping robot can adopt a structure well known to those skilled in the art. For example, the bottle clamping robot includes an active clamping arm and a passive clamping arm. One end of the passive clamping arm is connected to the active clamping arm, and the other end forms a clamping claw. The two claw arms of the clamping claw can be connected by a spring to ensure the reliability of the clamping claw when clamping the bottle. When the clamping claw needs to be opened, the bottle clamping robot can be moved to a position corresponding to the slope section 120 so that the active clamping arm collides with the slope section 120. After the collision, the active clamping arm pushes the passive clamping arm to move, and the passive clamping arm overcomes the elastic force of the spring, and the clamping claw opens. After the active clamping arm leaves the slope section 120 and the collision force disappears, the clamping claw is clamped again under the action of the elastic force of the spring.
[0039] The rotating body can drive the plurality of bottle clamping manipulators to rotate circumferentially, and the bottle clamping manipulators may collide when passing through the slope section 120 during the circumferential rotation.
[0040] The slope section 120 and the concave section 130 are both located at the outer edge of the sub-collision block 110 close to the bottle clamping robot.
[0041] like Figure 2 As shown, the overall shape of the collision block 100 formed by combining multiple sub-collision blocks 110 is roughly arc-shaped, but it is not limited to this.
[0042] One bump block 100 may also be composed of three, four, five, six or more sub-bump blocks 110 .
[0043] In some embodiments, the length of the interval 101 between two adjacent sub-blocks 110 is greater than 3 mm. For example, the length of the interval 101 between two adjacent sub-blocks 110 is 5 mm, 6 mm, 8 mm, 10 mm, 20 mm, 30 mm or even larger.
[0044] In the bump block of the bottle washing machine provided in the embodiment of the present disclosure, at least two separate sub-bump blocks 110 form a bump block 100, and there is a gap 101 between two adjacent sub-bump blocks 110, so that when the position of a sub-bump block 110 is adjusted, it will not affect the other sub-bump blocks 110, and the positions of different sub-bump blocks 110 can be flexibly adjusted.
[0045] The sub-collision block 110 achieves collision with the bottle clamping robot through the slope section 120. When a certain sub-collision block 110 is worn due to frequent collisions with the bottle clamping robot, the sub-collision block 110 at that location cannot effectively collide with the bottle clamping robot, or, due to precision problems, a certain sub-collision block 110 cannot effectively collide with the bottle clamping robot, while other sub-collision blocks 110 can effectively collide with the robot, at this time, only the position of the sub-collision block 110 can be adjusted, and the remaining sub-collision blocks 110 do not need to be adjusted, thereby ensuring the effectiveness of the slope sections of all sub-collision blocks 110 and reducing the problem of broken bottles. This method of ensuring the effectiveness of the slope section by adjusting the problematic sub-collision block 110 does not require grinding or surfacing of the sub-collision block 110, and the sub-collision block 110 can be fully utilized without the need to frequently adjust or process the collision block. The bottle washing machine has a high maintenance efficiency and also reduces the use and maintenance costs of the bottle washing machine.
[0046] The separate bump block of the disclosed embodiment can be adjusted along the outer circular edge of the bottle washing machine with a large adjustment range, making it easier to adjust the matching of the equipment according to the product, reducing the time for equipment maintenance personnel to test the machine, turn over the machine, and adjust the machine. After the bump block is worn, it can be moved to the left or right so that the slope continues to meet the use requirements, without the need for frequent adjustments or purchase of replacement parts. Figure 2 The bump block shown has been actually applied to bottle washing in pharmaceutical factories, with good actual production results and a significant improvement effect on existing seriously aged bottle washing machines.
[0047] Optionally, the outer side 160 of the ramp section 120 away from the rotating body has a wear-resistant coating. Without limitation, the wear-resistant coating can be hard chrome to improve the wear resistance of the sub-collision block 110 and increase its service life.
[0048] According to some optional embodiments, the slope segments 120 have different circumferential positions along the rotating body and different slopes; when the slope segments 120 with different slopes collide with the bottle clamping robot, the clamping jaws of the bottle clamping robot open to different degrees.
[0049] Generally, the greater the slope of the slope section 120, the greater the protrusion of the slope section 120, and the greater the degree of opening of the clamping jaws when the slope section 120 collides with the bottle clamping manipulator; conversely, the smaller the slope of the slope section 120, the smaller the protrusion of the slope section 120, and the smaller the degree of opening of the clamping jaws when the slope section 120 collides with the bottle clamping manipulator. In this way, the slope section 120 of the same sub-collision block 110 can have different slopes, and then the same bottle clamping manipulator can be used to clamp bottles of different outer diameters. Alternatively, the different slopes of the slope section 120 can be used for bottle washing machines with different precision requirements to ensure that the clamping jaws of different bottle washing machines have appropriate openings.
[0050] For example, Figure 2 As shown, the slope section 120 includes: a middle section and side sections located on both sides of the middle section, and the slope of the middle section is greater than the slope of the side sections. Relatively speaking, when the middle section collides with the bottle clamping manipulator, the clamping jaws open to a greater extent; when the side sections collide with the bottle clamping manipulator, the clamping jaws open to a lesser extent.
[0051] It is understandable that the slope distribution of the slope segment 120 may be other situations and is not limited thereto.
[0052] Without limitation, the length of the slope section 120 of the sub-bump block 110 is approximately 1 / 4-2 / 3 of the overall length of the sub-bump block 110 , for example, the length of the slope section 120 is approximately 1 / 4, 1 / 3, 1 / 2 or 2 / 3 of the overall length of the sub-bump block 110 .
[0053] like Figure 2 As shown, each sub-block 110 includes a slope segment 120. Figure 1 Compared with the integrated bump block 10 shown in the figure, the embodiment of the present disclosure divides the multiple slope segments 120 required by the bottle washing machine into multiple ones, so that each sub-bump block 110 has a slope segment 120. The main reason why the bump block is not compatible with the bottle washing machine is that the slope segment 120 does not match the bottle clamping manipulator. Therefore, each sub-bump block 110 has a slope segment 120, which can better adjust the adaptability of the sub-bump block 110 and the bottle washing machine and improve the flexibility of the bump block.
[0054] like Figure 2 As shown, the inner wall surface 150 of each sub-block 110 opposite to the rotating body is a curved surface, which can fit the outer circumference of the rotating body. This structure can improve the integrity of the sub-block 110 and the rotating body and reduce interference with other parts of the bottle washing machine.
[0055] Without limitation, Figure 2 In the illustrated embodiment, both sides of the ramp surface section 120 along the circumference of the rotating body have concave surface sections 130 .
[0056] According to some optional embodiments, when the bottle clamping manipulator moves to a position corresponding to the concave section 130, the bottle clamping manipulator is separated from the concave section 130. In this embodiment, the bottle clamping manipulator only collides with the slope section 120, but not with the concave section 130, thereby reducing the wear of the pair of collision blocks 110.
[0057] Optionally, the slope segments 120 of different sub-blocks 110 have the same or different shapes.
[0058] like Figure 2 As shown, according to some optional embodiments, each sub-bump block 110 further has a fixing hole 140 , and the fixing hole 140 is used for a fastener to pass through to fix the sub-bump block 110 .
[0059] Each sub-block 110 can be installed or position adjusted individually by using the fixing holes 140 .
[0060] Each sub-block 110 has a fixing hole 140. The fixing hole 140 may be a threaded hole, and the fastener may be a screw or a bolt, and the fastener is threadedly connected to the hole wall of the fixing hole 140.
[0061] like Figure 2 As shown, the fixing hole 140 is located and passes through the sub-bump block 110 in the vertical direction.
[0062] The number of the fixing holes 140 on each sub-block 110 is at least two, and the at least two fixing holes 140 are distributed along the circumferential direction of the rotating body. Figure 2 It is exemplarily shown that each sub-block 110 has two fixing holes 140. In embodiments not shown in the present disclosure, the number of fixing holes 140 on each sub-block 110 can also be three, four, five or more.
[0063] The number of fixing holes 140 on each sub-bump block 110 is at least two, which can effectively ensure the fixing effect of the sub-bump block 110.
[0064] After the plurality of sub-blocks 110 are fixed by fasteners, they are enclosed to form an arc, and the arc matches the circular motion trajectory of the bottle clamping robot.
[0065] Without limitation, Figure 2 In the embodiment shown, the fixing hole 140 is in the shape of an elongated strip, and the length direction of the elongated fixing hole 140 is along the circumferential direction of the rotating body. The elongated fixing hole 140 can better adapt to the adjustment of the position of the sub-collision block 110.
[0066] The disclosed embodiment also provides a bottle washing machine, which comprises: a rotating body, a bump block as described in any of the above embodiments, and a bottle clamping manipulator, wherein the bump block surrounds the outer side of the rotating body; the bottle clamping manipulator has a plurality of openable and closable claws, and the bottle clamping manipulator is connected to the rotating body to drive the claws to rotate under the action of the rotating body; when the bottle clamping manipulator is positioned relative to the slope section 120 of the sub-bump block 110, the bottle clamping manipulator can collide with the slope section 120 to put the claws of the bottle clamping manipulator in an open state; when the manipulator is positioned relative to the concave section 130 of the sub-bump block 110, the claws of the bottle clamping manipulator are in a closed state.
[0067] The rotating body is generally roughly cylindrical, and a plurality of bottle clamping manipulators are evenly spaced and connected outside the circumference of the rotating body. When the rotating body rotates, the bottle clamping manipulators are driven to rotate.
[0068] Generally, the bottle washing machine further comprises: a bump block base, and the sub-bump block 110 is detachably mounted on the bump block base.
[0069] The sub-bump block 110 is easy to wear after long-term use, and there is a need to replace it. In addition, during use, the sub-bump block 110 also needs to be adjusted in position, and these needs all require the disassembly of the sub-bump block 110. Therefore, the detachable connection between the sub-bump block 110 and the bump block base facilitates the replacement and position adjustment of the sub-bump block 110.
[0070] The above-mentioned detachable manner includes but is not limited to: using fasteners such as screws or bolts to pass through the fixing holes 140 on the sub-collision block 110 and the corresponding mounting holes on the collision block base.
[0071] Under the premise of no conflict, different embodiments or different technical features of the present disclosure can be arbitrarily combined to form new embodiments.
[0072] It should be understood that the above embodiments are exemplary and are not intended to include all possible implementations included in the claims. Various modifications and changes may be made on the basis of the above embodiments without departing from the scope of the present disclosure. Similarly, the various technical features of the above embodiments may be arbitrarily combined to form other embodiments of the utility model that may not be explicitly described. Therefore, the above embodiments only express several implementations of the utility model and do not limit the scope of protection of the utility model patent.
