Description
Technical Field
[0001] This technical solution mainly involves the "field of automation equipment", "field of pharmaceutical packaging equipment" and "field of mechanical operation equipment", and specifically involves a vial preparation device. Background Art
[0002] In the fields of automation equipment, pharmaceutical packaging equipment, and mechanical operation equipment, a vial preparation and handling device is a common device. This type of equipment is mainly used to sort bulk vials so that they are arranged in a certain order and direction for subsequent packaging or operation. Traditional vial preparation and handling devices usually include a feed box, a preparation tray assembly, a material separation module, and a discharge module. Existing vial preparation and handling devices usually use a belt conveyor to feed bulk vials into a feed box, and then use the bottle sorting components to sort the vials into a certain order and direction, and then use the material separation module to send the vials out in batches, and finally use the discharge module to send the vials out to the next process. In addition, some equipment also uses vibration plates and other methods to improve the efficiency of bottle sorting.
[0003] However, the existing vial preparation and sorting devices still have some problems and shortcomings in actual use. First, due to the collision or extrusion of vials during the transmission and sorting process, the vials may be broken or worn, affecting product quality. Secondly, during the bottle sorting and material distribution process, the existing equipment may get stuck or blocked, affecting the operating efficiency of the equipment. In addition, during the discharging process, the existing equipment may not be able to accurately control the discharging speed and quantity of the vials, and only adopts a single track feeding mode, which affects the normal operation of the next process. Utility Model Content
[0004] Based on this, it is necessary to provide a vial preparation and handling device to solve the following problems: 1. Vials are prone to collision or extrusion during the transmission and sorting process, resulting in technical problems such as damage or deformation of the vials; 2. Bottle jams or blockages may occur during bottle sorting and material distribution, affecting the operating efficiency of the equipment; 3. The discharge speed and quantity of vials cannot be accurately controlled during the discharge process, affecting the normal operation of the next process.
[0005] In order to achieve the above purpose, the present application provides a vial preparation and dispensing device, including a feed box, a preparation tray assembly, a material distribution module and a material dispensing module, and each module works in coordination. The main design contents are as follows:
[0006] The feed box includes a supporting component, a feed belt, a feed drive mechanism and a bottle sorting component. The feed belt is placed on the feed drive mechanism and reciprocates under the action of the feed drive mechanism. The bottle sorting component can accommodate multiple vials at the same time to enter the next process without causing excessive squeezing of the vials and equipment jamming.
[0007] The material preparation tray assembly includes a material tray and a discharge tray frame, which can be placed on the feed belt after being combined up and down;
[0008] The material distribution module includes a material distribution driving mechanism and a material distribution turntable, and the material distribution module is fixed on the upper part of the supporting component;
[0009] The discharging module comprises a guiding mechanism, an output mechanism and a detecting mechanism, and the discharging module is fixed on the supporting component.
[0010] The support member includes a bottom plate, side plates and a top plate, and the feed belt is defined in a horizontal track by the side plates.
[0011] The feed drive mechanism includes a feed motor and a feed roller component. When the feed motor rotates, the feed roller component is driven to rotate. The feed belt feeds the vial forward under the rotation of the feed roller component.
[0012] The bottle sorting parts include a left bottle sorting block and a right bottle sorting block. The corners of the left bottle sorting block and the right bottle sorting block are chamfered to ensure that the vials do not directly contact right-angled or sharp structures.
[0013] The top of the right bottle sorting block is not lower than the center line of the dividing turntable to prevent the vials from being pushed back onto the feeding belt when the dividing turntable rotates.
[0014] The side of the discharge tray frame contains an ear-shaped structure, which facilitates the separation of the vials and the discharge tray frame. The overall size of the discharge tray frame is no larger than the material tray. The discharge tray frame is placed on the material tray to limit the batches of vials. The material tray contains a protruding structure that is easy to pull out. By pulling out the material tray to one side through the protruding structure, the vials can be transported as a whole to the feed belt.
[0015] There are several circular holes with a diameter greater than 0.5mm on the material distribution turntable. Driven by the feed belt, the vials enter the holes through the bottle sorting component, and then are transported to the discharging module under the drive of the material distribution drive mechanism.
[0016] The guide mechanism includes an opening guide plate, a damping assembly and a guide block. When the material distribution turntable rotates, the opening guide plate can be passed from the inside, so that the syringe bottles can enter the guide track formed by the opening guide plate and the guide block one after another. The damping assembly is arranged on the guide block. The damping assembly is a non-metallic material and will not damage the syringe bottles, but can increase the friction of the syringe bottles.
[0017] The detection mechanism is arranged on the output mechanism. The detection mechanism detects the vials and transmits a signal to the next process, so as to prepare the vials in neat arrangement for the next process.
[0018] The present invention further defines the material and structural design of each component to optimize the bottle unscrambling effect and reduce damage to the vials. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

In general, the vial preparation and handling mechanism of the utility model has significant advantages over the prior art in terms of improving product quality, improving equipment operating efficiency and improving operational convenience.
[0030] like Figure 1-Figure 3 As described above, the first embodiment of the present application provides a vial preparation and handling device, which includes a feed box 100, a preparation tray assembly 200, a material distribution module 300 and a discharge module 400. The feed box 100 is used for vial delivery, the preparation tray assembly 200 is used to provide the device with sorted batches of vials, the material distribution module 300 is used to realize batch and sequential feeding of vials, and the discharge module 400 can realize the function of providing a rapid material distribution function to subsequent filling or packaging equipment, and can feed back the vial full material signal to the feed box 100 to avoid vial blockage.
[0031] The material preparation tray assembly 200 includes a material tray 201 and a discharge tray frame 202. After the two are combined up and down, the syringe bottles can be placed in batches on the feed belt. When in use, first fix the discharge tray frame 202, and then pull out the material tray 201 to either side, so that the bottom of the syringe bottle is in direct contact with the feed belt, and finally take out the discharge tray frame 202 upwards.
[0032] Furthermore, the side of the discharge tray frame 202 contains an ear-shaped structure 203, which facilitates the separation of the vials and the discharge tray frame 202. The overall size of the discharge tray frame 202 is not larger than the material tray 201. The discharge tray frame 202 is placed on the material tray 201 to limit the batches of vials. The material tray 201 contains a protruding structure 204 that is easy to pull out. The material tray 201 can be pulled out to one side by the protruding structure 204 to realize the whole transport of the vials to the feed belt.
[0033] The feed box 100 includes a support component 101, a feed belt 102, a feed drive mechanism 103 and a bottle unscrambling component 104. The support component 101 supports the entire feed box 100, the feed belt 102 is placed on the feed drive mechanism 103, and reciprocates under the action of the feed drive mechanism 103; the bottle unscrambling component 104 can simultaneously accommodate multiple vials to enter the next process without causing excessive squeezing of the vials and equipment jamming.
[0034] Furthermore, the feeding belt 102 is made of polyurethane, and the friction between the belt and the vials is appropriate. The bottles will not fall over when there is a lot of material due to excessive friction, nor will the bottles be transported forward with the belt due to too little friction.
[0035] Furthermore, the support component 101 includes a bottom plate 1011, a side panel 1012 and a top plate 1013. The feed belt 102 is fixed in the horizontal track through the side panel 1012. The support component 101 is preferably a 304 stainless steel bent plate, and the side panel 1012 can adjust the track width.
[0036] Furthermore, the feed drive mechanism 103 includes a feed motor 1031 and a feed roller component 1032 . When the feed motor 1031 rotates, the feed roller component 1032 is driven to rotate. The feed belt 102 feeds the vial forward under the rotation of the feed roller component 1032 .
[0037] Furthermore, the bottle sorting component 104 includes a left bottle sorting block 1042 and a right bottle sorting block 1041. The corners of the left bottle sorting block 1042 and the right bottle sorting block 1041 are chamfered to ensure that the vials do not directly contact right-angled or sharp structures; the top of the right bottle sorting block 1041 is not lower than the horizontal center line of the dividing turntable 302, which can effectively avoid the wear caused by the vials being pushed back to the feed belt 102 when the dividing turntable 302 rotates.
[0038] The material distribution module 300 includes a material distribution drive mechanism 301 and a material distribution turntable 302. The material distribution module 300 is fixed on the upper part of the supporting component 101. The material distribution drive mechanism 301 is mainly a motor, which can drive the rotation of the material distribution turntable 302. The material distribution turntable 302 is provided with a plurality of circular holes with a diameter greater than 0.5 mm. Driven by the feeding belt 102, the syringe bottle enters the hole groove through the bottle sorting component 104, and then the syringe bottle is transported to the discharging module under the drive of the material distribution drive mechanism 301.
[0039] Furthermore, the material distribution turntable 302, the guide block 4013 and other parts in contact with the bottle are preferably made of POM material to prevent the vial from being scratched.
[0040] The discharging module 400 includes a guiding mechanism 401, an output mechanism 402 and a detecting mechanism 403. The discharging module 400 is fixed on the supporting component 101. The guiding mechanism 401 provides a guiding function for transferring the vials from the dividing turntable 302 to the output mechanism 402. The output mechanism 402 can transport the vials to the preparation position to provide prepared vials for the next process. The detecting mechanism 403 is arranged on the output mechanism 402. The detecting mechanism 403 detects the vials and transmits a signal to the next process to prepare neatly arranged vials for the next process.
[0041] Furthermore, the guide mechanism 401 includes an open guide plate 4011, a damping assembly 4012 and a guide block 4013. When the dividing turntable 302 rotates, the open guide plate 4011 can be passed from the inside, so that the vials can enter the guide track formed by the open guide plate 4011 and the guide block 4013 one after another; the damping assembly 4012 is arranged on the guide block 4013. The damping assembly 4012 is made of non-metallic material and will not damage the vials, but can increase the friction of the vials to prevent the vials from falling over.
[0042] Furthermore, the main component of the detection mechanism 403 is a photoelectric probe 4031, which is placed on a detection support plate 4032. When the photoelectric probe 4031 detects material, the material distribution drive mechanism 301 stops working until there is no signal from the photoelectric probe 4031; the test found that the photoelectric probe 4031 here is not suitable for a through-beam type probe, because due to the material and color of the vial, the through-beam type probe may not be able to detect when there is a bottle.
[0043] Furthermore, the output mechanism 402 also includes a limiting component 4021 and an output belt 4022. The speed of the output belt 4022 needs to be 2 to 3 times faster than the speed of the feed belt 102. This can be controlled by using different numbers of teeth on the synchronous belt and different diameters of the conveying shafts of the two conveying mechanisms.
[0044] On the other hand, the present application provides a second embodiment, in which the feed belt 102 and the output belt 4022 are controlled by a motor to save costs, and are connected by a synchronous belt.
[0045] The present application also provides a third embodiment. When the bottle feeding requirements are different, the material preparation tray assembly 200 can be eliminated and the bottles can be fed manually or by other methods.
[0046] In addition, the vial preparation device may also include other necessary components or elements, which are not limited in the present application.
[0047] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the utility model, and does not limit the patent scope of the utility model. All equivalent structural changes made by using the contents of the utility model specification and drawings under the utility model concept, or directly / indirectly used in other related technical fields are included in the patent protection scope of the utility model.
