Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of wine product production, and particularly relates to an automatic lid installer for installing a lid of a wine box. Background Art
[0002] Wine is a liquid made from grains through fermentation and brewing. Its main chemical component is ethanol, and generally contains trace amounts of fusel oils. It is a drink with cultural characteristics. Before the wine products leave the factory, they need to be filled into washed wine bottles on the filling production line to form semi-finished wine, and then the semi-finished wine is externally packaged with wine boxes and wine cases.
[0003] The structure of the heaven-and-earth box is one of the main structures of wine boxes currently adopted. It is a non-integrally formed structure with a larger upper part and a smaller lower part, including two parts: a lid and a bottom. When packaging bottled or jarred wine with a wine box of the heaven-and-earth box structure, a separate process needs to be set up. An operator standing on the side of the production line holds the lid by hand and steadily covers it on the top of the bottom of the box containing bottled or jarred wine, so that the top of the bottom is embedded in the lid. In this process, the staff continuously repeats the actions of taking the lid and installing the lid, with a high labor intensity. Especially when packing large-jar wine, since the size of the large-jar wine is large, the size and weight of the lid increase accordingly, and the labor intensity of the staff further increases. At the same time, affected by the comprehensive influence of the standing position, posture and labor intensity during work, this work has a certain damaging effect on the lumbar muscles of the staff and is not conducive to the health of the staff.

[0019] To make the purposes, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the utility model clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the utility model, rather than all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts belong to the scope of protection of the utility model.
[0020] As Figure 1As shown in the figure, the structural relationship is as follows: On the side of the conveyor chain 1, there is a fixedly arranged conveyor plate 2. The bottoms 31 of each wine box 3 are successively placed on the conveyor chain 1. The bottom 31 contains bottled wine or jarred wine, and it includes a track groove 4, an upper pressing plate 5, a lower baffle 6, and a linear drive 7;
[0021] The track groove 4 is located above the conveyor chain 1, and has a track structure with openings at the top and bottom. Symmetric openings 41 are provided at the bottoms of a pair of opposite side walls. The lids 32 of each wine box 3 are cooperatively stacked in the track groove 4;
[0022] A pair of upper pressing plates 5 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the track groove 4 facing a pair of openings 41, and are respectively installed and connected to the output ends of a pair of linear drives 7; A pair of lower baffles 6 are correspondingly arranged below a pair of upper pressing plates 5, and are also respectively installed and connected to the output ends of a pair of linear drives 7;
[0023] Under the action of each linear drive 7, a pair of upper pressing plates 5 move towards each other to approach or move away from each other.
[0024] When a pair of upper pressing plates 5 move towards each other to approach, at the opening 41, the corresponding lids 31 are pressed against both sides of the lid 31 to limit the downward movement of the lid 31 and the lids 31 above it. When a pair of upper pressing plates 5 move away from each other, they are separated from the lid 31, and no longer limit the downward movement of the lid 31 and the lids 31 above it;
[0025] When a pair of lower baffles 6 move towards each other to approach, located below the track groove 4, the bottom of the lowermost lid 32 in the track groove 4 supports the lid 32 to limit the downward movement of the lid 32; When a pair of lower baffles 6 move away from each other, they leave the area below the track groove 4, and no longer limit the downward movement of the lowermost lid 32 in the track groove 4; At this time, a pair of upper pressing plates 5 should press against the lowermost one among the remaining lids 32 to limit the downward movement of the remaining lids 32.
[0026] Preferably, the linear drive 7 is a linear drive with double output ends. The upper pressing plate 5 and the lower baffle 6 arranged on the same side are respectively installed and connected to the two output ends of the same linear drive 7.
[0027] Preferably, the linear drive 7 is a double-acting cylinder.
[0028] Preferably, the track groove 4 and the linear drive 7 are installed and fixed to the conveyor plate 2 through a bracket 8.
[0029] Preferably, it further includes a controller and a sensor 9;
[0030] The sensor 9 is installed on the side of the conveyor chain 1, and the controller is in data communication with each linear drive 7 and the sensor 9.
[0031] During specific use, it includes the following process:
[0032] First step, stack the box lids 32 into piles and load them onto the track groove 4.
[0033] At this time, a pair of lower baffles 6 are located below the bottom of the track groove 4 to restrict the fall of the box lids 32 in the track groove 4, and a pair of upper pressing plates 5 are separated from the box lids 32 to avoid blocking the loading of the box lids 32.
[0034] Second step, place the box bottoms 31 on the conveyor chain 1 in sequence and convey them forward along the conveyor chain 1 under the conveying action of the conveyor chain 1.
[0035] Third step, when the box bottoms 31 are conveyed to below the track groove 4, each linear drive machine 7 drives a pair of upper pressing plates 5 and a pair of lower baffles 6 to act cooperatively. Using the gravity effect, each box lid 32 in the track groove 4 is covered on the top of each box bottom 31 one by one.
[0036] The covering process of a single box bottom 31 and box lid 32 is as follows:
[0037] When the box bottom 31 is conveyed to a position close to below the track groove 4, a pair of upper pressing plates 5 move towards each other and approach under the action of the linear drive machine 7, and press against both sides of the second box lid 32 from the bottom up in the track groove 4. Immediately, when the box bottom 31 is conveyed to a position directly below the track groove 4, a pair of lower baffles 6 immediately move away from each other under the action of the linear drive machine 7 until they completely leave the area below the track groove 4, so that the lowermost box lid 32 in the track groove 4 falls and covers on the top of the box bottom 31.
[0038] Subsequently, a pair of baffles 6 move towards each other under the action of the linear drive machine 7 and move to below the track groove 4, and a pair of upper pressing plates 5 move away from each other under the action of the linear drive machine 7, and the box lids 32 in the track groove 4 fall as a whole until the lowermost box lid 32 falls onto a pair of lower baffles 6.
[0039] In the above process, the actions of the linear drive machine 7 driving the upper pressing plates 5 and the lower baffles 6 can be controlled and realized by the box bottom 31 triggering the sensor set on the side of the conveyor chain 1 to set a delay time, or can also be realized by comprehensively setting the conveying speed of the conveyor chain 1, the conveying interval of the box bottom 31, and the action interval time of the linear drive machine 7. When the conveying speed of the conveyor chain 1 is slow, it can also be realized by manual control.
[0040] Fourth step, the staff checks the covering situation of the box bottom 31 and the box lid 32 of the wine box 3 downstream of the track groove 4, and just adjusts the box lids 32 that are not accurately covered on the top of some box bottoms 31.
