[0002] Due to the characteristics of the product, glass bottles of special medical foods are prone to sedimentation and agglomeration during high-temperature sterilization. Therefore, the bottle body needs to be rotated during the sterilization process. This process requires that the glass bottle products must be stacked tightly to avoid bottle collision and bottle breakage during the rotation process. The current product loading process is to load a layer of glass bottle products and cover it with a layer of partition. During the rotation sterilization process, the bottle cap and the partition slide relative to each other, which is prone to wear of the bottle cap.

[0003] Therefore, it is necessary to install a protective cover on the bottle cap before rotary sterilization to protect the bottle cap and avoid wear and tear.

[0004] Currently, the installation of bottle cap protective covers on the market is done manually, which is labor-intensive and requires a large number of workers, so the cost is high and the efficiency is low.

[0005] In summary, how to solve the problem of high cost and low efficiency caused by the current manual installation of protective covers is an urgent problem to be solved by those skilled in the art. Utility Model Content

[0031] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0032] The core of the utility model is to provide a bottle cap protective cover installation device to improve the efficiency of protective cover installation.

[0033] Please refer to Figure 1-Figure 3 A bottle cap protective cover installation device includes a hopper 1, a conveyor line 3, a chute and a clamping mechanism 6. The hopper 1 is used to store the protective covers 5 to be used, and the hopper 1 has an automatic sorting function, which can sort and arrange the protective covers 5. The conveyor line 3 is used to convey the bottle body 4. The chute is arranged between the conveyor line 3 and the hopper 1, and is used to convey the protective cover 5 in the hopper 1 to the conveyor line 3. The clamping mechanism 6 is located at the end of the chute close to the conveyor line 3, and is used to clamp and position the protective cover 5 when it cooperates with the bottle body 4. When the conveyor line 3 drives the bottle body 4 to move to the bottom of the clamping mechanism 6, the protective cover 5 is matched with the bottle body 4 through the contact between the bottle body 4 and the protective cover 5.

[0034] When the bottle 4 is in the state of being lifted up, the bottle 5 is put into the conveying line 3, and the bottle 5 is put into the conveying line 3.

[0035] It should be noted that the embodiment of the utility model does not limit the specific conveying method of the conveyor line 3. In some embodiments, the conveyor line 3 can use equipment such as a belt conveyor and a conveyor to convey the bottle body 4.

[0036] In addition, the embodiment of the utility model does not limit the specific way in which the chute drives the protective cover 5 to move. In some embodiments, the chute can be set to be inclined, and the protective cover 5 can be moved by its own weight, or the protective cover 5 can be transported by a conveyor belt 302 device.

[0037] In addition, the embodiment of the utility model does not limit the specific structure of the clamping mechanism 6, as long as it can realize the clamping function of the protective cover 5. In some embodiments, the clamping structure can adopt a clamp driven by a cylinder, and the clamping effect of the protective cover 5 can be realized by the extension and contraction of the cylinder, or a clamping plate 601 with an elastic structure can be adopted, and two clamping plates 601 are respectively installed on both sides of the slide slot, so that the protective cover 5 can be clamped when the protective cover 5 passes between the two clamping plates 601.

[0038] In addition, in the embodiment of the utility model, the bottle body 4 contacts with the protective cover 5 clamped by the clamping mechanism 6 during the movement, and the bottle mouth of the bottle body 4 will partially enter the protective cover 5, so that the bottle body 4 drives the protective cover 5 to move during the movement, and the protective cover 5 and the bottle mouth are loosely matched, so when the protective cover 5 is separated from the clamping mechanism 6, it will automatically be put on the bottle mouth under the action of gravity, and there is no need to set a downward pressure structure to press the protective cover 5 on the bottle mouth.

[0039] Please refer to Figure 1In order to further reduce the manufacturing cost of the device, in some embodiments, the chute is tilted toward the conveyor line 3, and the height of the chute close to the conveyor line 3 is adjustable. That is to say, by tilting the chute, the weight of the protective cover 5 on the chute can be used to move along the chute, avoiding the need to add a separate conveying device to convey the protective cover 5, which is beneficial to reducing the manufacturing cost of the device. At the same time, the height of the chute close to the conveyor line 3 is adjustable, that is, the height of the chute close to the conveyor line 3 can be adjusted. By adjusting its height, the distance between it and the conveyor line 3 can be adjusted, so as to facilitate adjustment according to the height of different bottles 4 and improve the versatility of the device.

[0040] It should be noted that the embodiments of the utility model do not limit the specific method and structure of adjusting the slide slot, as long as the height adjustment can be achieved. In some embodiments, a cylinder can be used to connect the extended end of the cylinder to the slide slot, and the slide slot height can be adjusted by telescoping the cylinder, or a lead screw structure can be used to connect the lead screw slider to the slide slot, and the lead screw slider can be moved up and down by rotating the lead screw, so as to adjust the slide slot height, or other adjustment methods can be used.

[0041] In addition, the embodiment of the utility model does not limit the inclination angle of the slide groove, as long as the movement of the protective cover 5 can be achieved by inclination.

[0042] In some embodiments, the conveyor line 3 includes a bottle clamping conveyor 301 and a conveyor belt 302. The bottle clamping conveyor 301 and the conveyor belt 302 form a one-way loop. The bottle clamping conveyor 301 is located below the clamping mechanism 6. That is, the bottle clamping conveyor 301 and the conveyor belt 302 cooperate to convey the bottle body 4. The bottle clamping conveyor 301 can clamp and convey the bottle body 4. Therefore, when the bottle body 4 contacts the protective cover 5, the bottle clamping conveyor 301 can maintain the stability of the bottle body 4 itself to prevent it from tilting. At the same time, the bottle clamping conveyor 301 and the conveyor belt 302 form a one-way loop. That is, the bottle clamping conveyor 301 and the conveyor belt 302 have the same conveying direction and can be connected.

[0043] In order to further improve the smoothness of the movement of the protective cover 5 on the slide and the effect of automatic arrangement inside the hopper 1, in some embodiments, a vibration mechanism is installed on the hopper 1, that is, the hopper 1 is vibrated by setting the vibration mechanism, and the slide is connected to the hopper 1. Therefore, when the hopper 1 vibrates, the slide will drive the vibration, thereby realizing the automatic arrangement and movement of the protective cover 5.

[0044] It should be noted that the embodiment of the utility model does not limit the specific structure of the vibration mechanism, as long as it can drive the hopper 1 to vibrate. In some embodiments, the vibration mechanism can be driven by a vibration motor, an eccentric motor, etc., and the support structure of the hopper 1 adopts an elastic structure, such as providing a spring 602 or using a spring 602 steel connection, and the vibration of the hopper 1 is achieved through the above structure.

[0045] Please refer to Figure 3 In some embodiments, the clamping mechanism 6 includes two clamping plates 601, which are respectively installed on both sides of the slide groove. The minimum spacing between the two clamping plates 601 is smaller than the diameter of the protective cover 5. That is to say, the clamping mechanism 6 is two clamping plates 601, and the minimum spacing between the two clamping plates 601 is smaller than the diameter of the protective cover 5. Therefore, when the protective cover 5 enters between the clamping plates 601, it can be clamped. The structure is simple and the manufacturing cost is low, which is conducive to reducing costs.

[0046] It should be noted that the embodiment of the present invention does not limit the spacing of the clamping plates 601, and the spacing can be fixed or variable.

[0047] In addition, the embodiment of the utility model does not limit the material of the clamping plate 601, and any material that can achieve the purpose of clamping the protective cover 5 can be used. In some embodiments, in order to improve its clamping effect, a material with elastic deformation can be used, such as spring 602 steel, polyethylene and other materials.

[0048] Please continue to refer to Figure 3 In order to further enhance the clamping effect of the clamping plate 601 on the protective cover 5 and limit the clamping direction, in some embodiments, the two clamping plates 601 are both arranged perpendicular to the bottom of the slide groove, that is, the clamping plates 601 are arranged perpendicular to the bottom surface of the slide groove, so when the protective cover 5 moves to contact with the clamping plates 601, the axis of the protective cover 5 is perpendicular to the bottom surface of the slide groove, ensuring that the clamping plate 601 clamps and protects the protective cover 5 at an angle, thereby ensuring that a fixed angle is generated between the ground of the protective cover 5 and the plane of the bottle mouth, so that when the bottle body 4 moves to contact with the protective cover 5, it will only contact the inclined side of the protective cover 5, thereby ensuring that the bottle mouth will enter the interior of the protective cover 5.

[0049] In some embodiments, the clamping mechanism 6 also includes an adjustment mechanism, which is used to adjust the distance between the two clamping plates 601. That is to say, by setting the adjustment mechanism, the distance between the two clamping plates 601 can be adjusted, so that the clamping plates 601 can clamp protective sleeves 5 of different diameters, thereby improving its versatility and improving its use effect.

[0050] It should be noted that the embodiment of the utility model does not limit the specific structure of the adjustment mechanism, and it only needs to adjust the spacing between the clamping plates 601. In some embodiments, the adjustment mechanism can use two cylinders, and the two cylinders respectively drive the two clamping plates 601 to move, so as to adjust the spacing between the clamping plates 601, or the adjustment mechanism uses a threaded rod, and the threaded rod is provided with two sections of threads with opposite rotation directions, and the two sections of threads are respectively matched with the two clamping plates 601, and the spacing between the two clamping plates 601 is adjusted by rotating the threaded rod.

[0051] Please continue to refer to Figure 3 In some embodiments, the two clamping plates 601 adopt a V-shaped structure with openings facing each other, and the angle between the two V-shaped clamping plates 601 is an obtuse angle. That is to say, the clamping plates 601 are in a V-shaped structure with an obtuse angle. Through this structure, better contact with the protective cover 5 can be achieved, thereby improving the clamping effect on the protective cover 5.

[0052] It should be noted that the embodiment of the utility model does not specifically limit the angle of the clamping plate 601. In some embodiments, the angle can be selected from 150 degrees to 170 degrees, wherein 170 degrees has a better effect.

[0053] In addition, in the embodiment of the present invention, when the clamping plate 601 is made of elastically deformable material, its V-shaped structure can better exert its effect.

[0054] Please continue to refer to Figure 3 In order to further enhance the elastic preload force of the clamping plate 601, in some embodiments, the clamping mechanism 6 further includes two springs 602, and the two springs 602 respectively push the two clamping plates 601 to move closer together. That is to say, by arranging springs 602 on both sides of the two clamping plates 601, the springs 602 push the clamping plates 601 to move closer together, thereby enhancing the elastic preload force of the clamping plates 601 during use and increasing the clamping effect on the protective cover 5.

[0055] It should be noted that the description of the embodiment of the utility model on the use of spring 602 is not a fixed limitation. In some embodiments, it can also adopt other elastic structures, such as elastic cylinders, top springs, etc.

[0056] In order to further enhance the clamping effect of the clamping plate 601 on the protective cover 5, in some embodiments, a rubber layer is provided on the adjacent surface of the two clamping plates 601, and the rubber layer is provided with anti-slip patterns arranged along the moving direction of the protective cover 5. That is to say, a rubber layer is provided on the opposite surface of the clamping plate 601, and the friction force on the protective cover 5 is increased by the rubber layer. At the same time, the rubber layer is provided with anti-slip patterns arranged along the moving direction of the protective cover 5, so as to further enhance its friction force and improve the clamping effect on the protective cover 5.

[0057] It should be noted that the description of the rubber layer in the embodiments of the present invention is not a fixed limitation. In some embodiments, it can also be made of materials such as silicone and sponge.

[0058] In addition, the description of the shape of the anti-slip pattern in the embodiment of the present invention is not a fixed limitation. In some embodiments, it can also be a dot structure, a corrugated structure or other shapes.

[0059] After bottle 4 is packed up, bottle 5 is put into operation, and bottle 4 and bottle 5 are put into operation.

[0060] The various embodiments in this specification are described in a progressive manner, and each embodiment focuses on the differences from other embodiments. The same or similar parts between the various embodiments can be referenced to each other.
