Description

[0002] The application fields of product packaging bags vary according to the specific materials to be packaged. Generally speaking, larger bulk materials are easier to seal the packaging bags, while small particle materials are easier to fill into the packaging bags.

[0003] When filling large bulk materials into packaging bags, the direction of the materials needs to be adjusted before they can be loaded into the bags. However, due to their integrity, there are basically no problems when sealing the bags. In contrast, granular or powdery materials can be quantitatively loaded into the bags using only the corresponding filling equipment. However, when sealing the bags, it is easy for particles or powder to remain at the seal. In this case, the seal may be loose, causing the materials in the bags to leak out or the seal of the bags to be easily damaged.

[0039] 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 present application. 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.

[0040] See also Figure 1-Figure 4 , this application provides the following technical solutions:

[0041] A foreign body detection mechanism at the sealing portion of a packaging bag comprises a fixed unit 1 and a moving unit 2. The fixed unit 1 is a fixed detection structure, and a reference detection unit 11 is arranged on one side of the fixed unit 1; the moving unit 2 is arranged corresponding to the fixed unit 1, and is arranged on one side of the reference detection unit 11 of the fixed unit 1. The moving unit 2 is provided with an active detection unit 21, and the active detection unit 21 can move closer to or away from the reference detection unit 11. The detection unit 3 is linked with the active detection unit 21, and the detection unit 3 can feedback the moving speed of the active detection unit 21, or feedback the relative distance between the moving unit 21 and the reference detection unit 11.

[0042] The reference detection part 11 and the active detection part 21 are both long strip structures, and their lengths only need to be greater than the length of the sealing position of the packaging bag to be detected. Between the reference detection part 11 and the active detection part 21 is a placement space for the sealing position of the packaging bag to be detected.

[0043] During the detection, the position of the reference detection part 11 remains fixed, and the active detection part 21 is close to the reference detection part 11 to clamp the sealing part of the packaging bag.

[0044] For the detection unit 3, two different methods can be used to realize the detection of the sealing part of the packaging bag. First, the moving speed of the active detection part 21 can be detected. When the active detection part 21 is moving normally, its movement should be uniform until the sealing part of the packaging bag is clamped and the entire movement stroke is completed. However, if there is material clamped at the sealing part of the packaging bag, the material will cause the sealing part to bulge, and the active detection part 21 will first touch the foreign matter and then be blocked, thereby changing the movement speed. With this feature, the movement speed of the active detection part 21 can be detected to obtain feedback on whether there is a foreign matter at the sealing position of the packaging bag.

[0045] Another method is to detect the distance between the active detection part 21 and the reference detection part 11. This method is suitable for the case where the foreign matter itself has sufficient hardness and will not be crushed or damaged by the movement of the active detection part 21. When the active detection part 21 touches the foreign matter, it cannot continue to move, so the distance between it and the reference detection part 11 must be different from the normal distance. With this principle, the detection of foreign matter at the sealing part of the packaging bag can also be realized.

[0046] On the basis of the above implementation scheme, the detection unit 3 adopts a magnetic grating detection component, and the magnetic grating detection head 31 of the magnetic grating detection component and the active detection part 21 move synchronously. Considering that the hardness of granular materials or powdered materials will be low even if they are stuck at the sealing part of the packaging bag, this solution detects the moving speed of the active detection part 21 through the magnetic grating detection component. The magnetic grating detection component can achieve high accuracy in detecting the moving speed of the detection object, which has an excellent effect on solving the problems in the background technology of this solution.

[0047] The magnetic grating detection component of this solution can adopt existing technology. The main innovation of this solution is to apply this technology to the detection of packaging bag seals. For the specific structure of the magnetic grating detection component, existing technology can be adopted and will not be repeated here.

[0048] Based on the above implementation scheme, see Figure 2 and Figure 3 A buffer strip 211 is disposed on the block of the active detection portion 21 . The buffer strip 211 is made of an elastic material and is disposed on a side of the active detection portion 21 facing the reference detection portion 11 .

[0049] The motion unit 2 also includes a driving member 22 as a power, and the driving member 22 can drive the active detection part 21 to translate, so as to realize the active detection part 21 to move toward or away from the reference detection part 11. The driving member 22 is a cylinder, which includes a cylinder body as a fixed part and a piston rod as a movable part. The fixed part of the driving member 22 is fixedly connected to the fixed unit 1, and the movable part is linked to the active detection part 21.

[0050] Because the active detection part 21 and the reference detection part 11 are both made of hard materials, when the cylinder is used as the driving part 22, the material may be directly pushed and crushed, which will cause inaccurate detection results. The buffer bar 211 has two functions. One is that when the buffer bar 211 squeezes the material, it will not directly crush the material. The material passing through the buffer bar 211 can better affect the movement speed of the active detection part 21, thereby obtaining a more accurate detection result. In addition, by setting the buffer bar 211, the buffer bar 211 forms a protruding strip structure, which can also better push the sealing part of the packaging bag.

[0051] Based on the above implementation scheme, see Figures 1 to 3 The fixing unit 1 includes a fixing frame 12 and a protective shell 13. The fixing frame 12 is fixedly connected to the reference detection part 11, and the active detection part 21 is slidably connected to the fixing frame 12. The protective shell 13 is buckled on the outside of the fixing frame 12 and the outside of the detection unit 3.

[0052] The fixing frame 12 can be divided into a lower fixing structure 121 and an upper fixing structure 122. The lower fixing structure 121 includes a horizontally arranged mounting plate, and the driving member 22 of the motion unit 2 is connected to the mounting plate; the upper fixing structure 122 is arranged on the upper side of the mounting plate of the lower fixing structure 121, and the upper fixing structure 122 includes a horizontally arranged connecting plate, and the connecting plate and the mounting plate are fixedly connected by a vertical plate group; the vertical plate group adopts a "T"-shaped structure as a whole, and the "T"-shaped structure is the display state of the mechanism when viewed from above. The vertical plate group is fixedly arranged on the lower side of the mounting plate to play a role in stabilizing and supporting the mounting plate.

[0053] A suspension structure 123 is suspended at the lower side of the end of the mounting plate. The suspension structure 123 is a "7"-shaped structure, including a vertically arranged horizontal plate and a vertical plate. The upper part of the suspension structure 123, that is, the horizontal plate, is fixedly connected to the connecting plate of the upper fixed structure 122, and the lower part of the suspension structure 123, that is, the vertical plate, is fixedly connected to the reference detection part 11. A right-angled triangle reinforcement plate is arranged between the horizontal plate and the vertical plate.

[0054] On the basis of the above implementation scheme, a horizontally extending long groove is opened on the connecting plate of the upper fixed structure 122; the cross plate of the suspension structure 123 is slidably connected to the connecting plate through the long groove, and a locking bolt is provided between the connection between the two.

[0055] A plurality of connection columns are respectively provided on the upper side of the connection plate and the lower side of the mounting plate, and threaded holes are provided on the connection columns, through which the fixing unit 1 is fixedly connected to the protective shell 13. The use of such a connection method of supporting and isolating the protective shell 13 helps to leave space inside the mechanism, which is convenient for heat dissipation of the internal components on the one hand, and can also provide better buffering and resistance to external collisions on the other hand, so as to avoid direct impact of external collisions on the internal components.

[0056] Based on the above implementation scheme, see Figure 4The motion unit 2 also includes a first connecting member 23 and a second connecting member 24. The first connecting member 23 is arranged between the movable part of the driving member 22 and the active detection part 21; two first connecting members 23 are arranged, and the two first connecting members 23 are respectively fixedly connected to the side of the active detection part 21 away from the reference detection part 11. And the two first connecting members 23 are respectively connected to a half position of the active detection part 21. The second connecting member 24 is an overall "U"-shaped structure, including a long strip-shaped connecting block, one side of the connecting block is fixedly connected to the end of the piston rod of the driving member 22; two parallel connecting rods are arranged on the other side, and each connecting rod is fixedly connected to a first connecting member 23.

[0057] The motion unit 2 also includes a guide rail, two of which are fixed on the lower side of the mounting plate of the lower fixed structure 121, and one guide rail is provided corresponding to each first connecting member 23; the length direction of the guide rail is the movement direction of the active detection part 21; a slide groove is provided on the upper side of the first connecting member 23 corresponding to the guide rail, and the guide rail is slidably connected through the slide groove.

[0058] On the basis of the above implementation scheme, with regard to the layout of the detection unit 3 , in addition to the magnetic grating detection head 31 , other related components may also be arranged on the lower side of the mounting plate of the lower fixing structure 121 .

[0059] On the basis of the above implementation scheme, considering that the position of the reference detection part 11 is fixed, it is prevented from changing its position due to the push of the active detection part 21 during long-term use. Therefore, a sensor can be set on the side of the longitudinal plate of the suspension structure 123 away from the active detection part 21. The sensor can be an electrically connected alarm component. When the suspension structure 123 is in a normal position, the sensor is not triggered. When the position of the suspension structure 123 changes, the alarm component is triggered. The alarm component can be a warning light or a speaker, etc.

[0060] As for the specific form of the sensor, an existing structure may be used, such as a touch-type micro switch, or other related components that can ensure feedback of small displacements.
