Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of cleaning materials transfer tools, in particular to a clamp for a carrier and air drying equipment with the clamp. Background Art

[0002] In the production field, carriers are mostly used to realize batch transfer or delivery of materials. For example, in the field of liquor production, turnover boxes are used to store bottle caps. In order to ensure the sanitary environment of the bottle caps and avoid cross contamination, the turnover boxes are mostly cleaned and disinfected after use. During the cleaning process, whether it is the wind-cutting and water-blowing process connecting the cleaning unit and the rinsing unit, or the drying process after the disinfection unit, the turnover boxes need to be air-dried. In order to avoid a large amount of accumulation of cleaning, rinsing and disinfection fluids in the turnover box, the turnover box is mostly inverted on the conveying unit to receive the cleaning, rinsing and disinfection operations. Then, on the same cleaning line, when the conveying unit conveys the turnover box to the wind-cutting and water-blowing process and the drying process, it will still remain in an inverted state. In this way, when the fan assembly is used for the corresponding air-drying operation, it usually only acts better on the outer surface of the turnover box, and the residual water inside it requires a longer working time, which is bound to be unable to take into account both cleaning efficiency and cleaning quality.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0032] In order to make the technical means, creative features, objectives and effects achieved by the present invention easy to understand, the present invention is further described below in conjunction with specific implementation methods.

[0033] Example 1

[0034] like Figure 1-7 As shown, a clamp for a carrier includes two groups of symmetrically arranged clamping plate assemblies, each clamping plate assembly includes a Y-axis driving device 51, an X-axis driving device 54 connected to the output end of the Y-axis driving device 51, and a rotation driving device 55 connected to the output end of the X-axis driving device 54, the output end of the rotation driving device 55 is connected to a main clamping plate frame 512, the inner end of the main clamping plate frame 512 is installed with a main clamping plate 59, and the main clamping plate frame 512 is also installed with a vibrator 510.

[0035] In this embodiment, the Y-axis driving device 51 and the X-axis driving device 54 can both be made of slide modules or cylinders; the rotation driving device 55 can be made of a rotary cylinder or a reduction motor.

[0036] During use, when the inverted carrier flows between the two clamping plate assemblies, the Y-axis driving device 51 and the X-axis driving device 54 move the positions of the main clamping plate frame 512 and the main clamping plate 512, so that the two main clamping plates 512 are clamped on both sides of the carrier, and then the carrier is lifted up by the Y-axis driving device 51, and then the carrier is rotated by the rotating driving device 55, so that the inverted carrier can be turned over in the air-drying area. At the same time, the vibrator 510 is turned on, and the kinetic energy of the vibration is transmitted to the carrier through the main clamping plate 59, so that the residual water on the outer surface and the inner surface of the carrier is quickly shaken off. In this way, the air-drying efficiency can be effectively improved and the air-drying quality can be guaranteed.

[0037] In order to reduce the influence of the vibrator 510 on the rotation driving device 55 , a shock absorbing elastic member 524 may be sleeved on the output shaft of the rotation driving device 55 , and two ends of the shock absorbing elastic member 524 abut against the rotation driving device 55 and the main plate frame 512 respectively.

[0038] In addition, the output end of the Y-axis driving device 51 is connected to the X-axis fixing seat 53 , and the X-axis driving device 54 is installed on the X-axis fixing seat 53 .

[0039] Preferably, the main clamping plate frame 512 is also connected to a secondary clamping plate frame 513, and a secondary clamping plate driving device 514 is installed on the secondary clamping plate frame 513. The output end of the secondary clamping plate driving device 514 is connected to the secondary clamping plate 515. The secondary clamping plate driving device 514 acts on the secondary clamping plate 515, so that: the secondary clamping plate 515 can move along the X-axis direction relative to the main clamping plate 59.

[0040] In this embodiment, the first stage of air-drying is completed when the outer surface of the carrier is dry. However, the area where the main splint 59 is in direct contact with the outer surface of the carrier is very likely to become a missed residual area, and residual fluid is also very likely to remain on the working surface of the main splint 59. For this reason, this embodiment is designed with a movable auxiliary splint 515 to position the carrier to receive the second stage of air-drying. When in use, after the outer surface of the carrier is initially dried, the carrier is reset to the conveying assembly through the Y-axis driving device 51, the X-axis driving device 54, and the rotating driving device 55, and then the auxiliary clamping plate driving device 514 is started to move the auxiliary clamping plate 515 to the inner side of the main clamping plate 59, and then the main clamping plate frame 512 is moved through the Y-axis driving device 51 and the X-axis driving device 54, so that the two auxiliary clamping plates 515 can be clamped on both sides of the carrier to position the carrier. Since the auxiliary clamping plate 515 is staggered with the main clamping plate 59, the area clamped by the auxiliary clamping plate 515 will also be staggered with the area clamped by the main clamping plate 59, and the carrier can continue to be air-dried. The auxiliary clamping plate driving device 514 can be an electric push rod.

[0041] Preferably, the inner end surfaces of the main plate 59 and the auxiliary plate 515 are both provided with a plurality of anti-slip protrusions 511 .

[0042] In this embodiment, the anti-skid protrusions 511 can increase the friction between the main clamping plate 59 and the auxiliary clamping plate 515 and the outer surface of the carrier, thereby improving the clamping stability. The anti-skid protrusions 511 can be made of rubber or silicone.

[0043] Preferably, the output end of the rotation driving device 55 is connected to the main clamping plate frame 512 through an elastic component;

[0044] The elastic component includes a fixed sleeve 56 and a sliding rod 57. The fixed sleeve 56 is provided with a buffer cavity 516 and an opening 517 communicating with the buffer cavity 516 and penetrating the inner end of the fixed sleeve 56. The sliding rod 57 has a buffer section 518, a shockproof section 519 and a connecting section 521 which are connected in sequence and have gradually reduced outer diameters. The fixed sleeve 56 is connected to the rotation driving device 55, and the connecting section 521 is connected to the main plate frame 512.

[0045] The buffer section 518 is located in the buffer cavity 516 and can be slidably matched with the buffer cavity 516. A buffer elastic member 520 is also provided in the buffer cavity 516. The buffer elastic member 520 acts on the buffer section 518 so that the sliding rod 57 is located at an extreme position away from the rotation driving device 55.

[0046] The shock-proof section 519 can be slidably matched with the opening 517 .

[0047] In this embodiment, when the clamping plate assembly moves excessively, the sliding rod 57 can achieve a buffering effect by compressing the buffer elastic member 520 to avoid damaging the carrier. In addition, the buffer elastic member 520 can also provide support force to the main clamping plate frame 512, so that the main clamping plate 59 or the auxiliary clamping plate 515 can clamp the carrier more stably.

[0048] Preferably, a shockproof elastic member 58 is sleeved on the connecting section 521 , and two ends of the shockproof elastic member 58 abut against the shockproof section 519 and the main plate frame 512 respectively.

[0049] In this embodiment, when the vibrator 510 acts on the main plate frame 512 , the shockproof elastic member 58 can reduce the influence of the vibration energy on the fixing sleeve 56 and the rotation driving device 55 .

[0050] Preferably, a limiting protrusion 522 is provided on the cavity wall of the buffer cavity 516;

[0051] The buffer section 518 is provided with a limiting notch 523 which can be inserted and matched with the limiting protrusion 522 .

[0052] In this embodiment, by providing the limiting protrusion 522 and the limiting notch 523 , the sliding stability of the buffer section 518 can be improved, and the buffer section 518 can be ensured to rotate synchronously with the fixing sleeve 56 .

[0053] Of course, as another preferred embodiment, the cross section of the buffer cavity 516 is square. Accordingly, when the rotating drive device 55 drives the fixed sleeve 56 to rotate, the sliding rod 57 and the main clamping plate frame 512 can also be driven to rotate.

[0057] The two clamping plate assemblies are respectively located on both sides of the transmission assembly 1 , and the main clamping plate frame 512 can be located directly above the transmission assembly 1 .

[0058] In this embodiment, the conveying assembly 1 is used to convey the inverted carrier, the carrier clamp can hold the carrier to flip and move, and the fan assembly 10 can perform air drying operation on the carrier, thus effectively improving the air drying efficiency and ensuring the air drying quality. This embodiment is suitable for the air cutting and water blowing process.

[0059] Preferably, a heating tube assembly 9 is further provided between the fan assembly 10 and the air outlet channel 8 .

[0060] In this embodiment, by setting the heating tube assembly 9, the temperature can be raised to dry the carrier, which can further improve the air-drying efficiency. This embodiment is suitable for the air-drying process.

[0061] Preferably, the support frame includes two connecting rods 3 respectively connected to the transmission assembly 1, and the same connecting rod 3 is connected to two support plates 4 arranged at intervals, and the two support plates 4 are respectively located on both sides of the clamping plate assembly.

[0062] In addition, the Y-axis driving device 51 in the carrier clamp can be set on the connecting rod 3 through the Y-axis fixing seat 52.

[0064] The bottom ends of the front and rear ends of the air outlet channel 8 are both equipped with second protective curtains 7 that can connect with the two support plates 4 located on both sides.

[0065] In this embodiment, the provision of the first protective curtain 6 and the second protective curtain 7 can reduce the consumption of heat energy and effectively improve work efficiency.
