[0028] All terms used in this disclosure have the same meanings as those understood by those of ordinary skill in the art to which this disclosure pertains, unless otherwise specifically defined. It should also be understood that terms defined in a general dictionary, such as those, should be interpreted as having meanings consistent with their meanings in the context of the relevant art, and should not be interpreted in an idealized or overly formal sense, unless specifically defined as such herein.

[0029] Technologies, methods, and devices known to those of ordinary skill in the relevant art may not be discussed in detail, but where appropriate, the technologies, methods, and devices should be regarded as part of the specification.

[0030] As Figures 1 to 4 As shown, this disclosure provides a horizontal ampoule turning device, including: a bracket 1; a storage component 3, which is arranged on the bracket 1 and is provided with a plurality of storage positions for placing ampoules 6; a suction cup component 7, which is provided with a plurality of suction cup heads 702 arranged in a straight line; and a rotation driving component 4, which can drive the suction cup component 7 to rotate between a first position and a second position. In the first position, the suction cup component 7 can adsorb a plurality of ampoules 6 arranged in a straight line. In the second position, the suction cup component 7 is located at the storage component 3, and the plurality of suction cup heads 702 are respectively aligned with the corresponding number of storage positions, and the plurality of suction cup heads 702 can place the plurality of ampoules 6 on the corresponding storage positions.

[0031] Specifically, since the ampoules 6 produced by the horizontal ampoule forming machine are all placed with their bottoms facing each other, half of the ampoules 6 need to be turned around. The first position where the ampoules 6 to be turned around are located is on the first side of the rotation driving component 4, and the second position of the storage component 3 for storing the turned-around ampoules 6 is on the second side of the rotation driving component 4. In the first position, after the suction cup component 7 batch-adsorbs the ampoules 6 with the plurality of suction cup heads 702 arranged in a straight line, the rotation driving component 4 drives the suction cup component 7 to rotate to the second position, and the suction cup component 7 places the plurality of ampoules 6 on the corresponding plurality of storage positions on the storage component 3, completing the turning operation of the ampoules 6, making the bottle mouths of all the ampoules 6 face the same direction, which is convenient for subsequent box loading operations. Among them, the number of storage positions on the storage component 3 is not the same as the number of suction cup heads 702 on the suction cup component 7. Generally, the number of storage positions on the storage component 3 is greater than the maximum number of ampoules 6 that the suction cup component 7 can adsorb, so as to improve the fault tolerance rate of the device and prevent the ampoules 6 from slipping out of the storage component 3.

[0032] As Figures 1 - 4As shown, in some embodiments, the rotation drive assembly 4 includes an air-conducting slip ring 401 and a first drive member 402 for driving the air-conducting slip ring 401 to rotate. The air-conducting slip ring 401 can drive the suction cup assembly 7 to rotate around the central axis along the first direction. In the first position, a plurality of suction cup heads 702 are arranged along the second direction, and the suction cup assembly 7, the air-conducting slip ring 401, and the storage assembly 3 located at the first position are arranged along the third direction. The first direction, the second direction, and the third direction are perpendicular to each other in pairs.

[0033] Specifically, during the use of the horizontal ampoule turning device, it can be set such that the first direction corresponds to the vertical direction, and the second direction and the third direction correspond to two mutually perpendicular directions on the horizontal plane. The ampoules 6 to be turned and the multiple storage positions on the storage assembly 3 located at the second position are also arranged along the second direction. In the first position, the suction cup assembly 7 batch adsorbs the ampoules 6 arranged along the second direction by means of a plurality of suction cup heads 702. Driven by the air-conducting slip ring 401, the suction cup assembly 7 rotates and places the ampoules 6 on the multiple storage positions also arranged along the second direction, completing the turning of the ampoules 6 so that the mouths of all the ampoules 6 face in the same direction, facilitating subsequent box loading operations. Here, the first drive member 402 can be a conventional drive member such as a stepper motor, a servo motor, a cylinder, or an oil cylinder. The air-conducting slip ring 401 is a slip ring structure that can both receive rotation and transmit gas-liquid media, and is also called a pneumatic rotary joint or a gas-liquid rotary joint.

[0034] In some embodiments, the rotation drive assembly 4 can drive the suction cup assembly 7 to rotate 180° to achieve precise turning. In other embodiments, the rotation drive assembly 4 can also drive the suction cup assembly 7 to rotate an angle approximately 180° to correct possible errors in the equipment.

[0035] As Figure 2 shown, in some embodiments, the suction cup assembly 7 further includes a suction cup base 701 connected to the air-conducting slip ring 401 and a plurality of suction cup fittings 703 connecting the suction cup base 701 and the plurality of suction cup heads 702. The air-conducting slip ring 401 is connected to a vacuum generator 5, and a pipeline connecting the suction cup heads 702 and the vacuum generator 5 is provided in the suction cup fittings 703, the suction cup base 701, and the air-conducting slip ring 401.

[0036] Specifically, the suction cup base 701 includes a third base 704 and a rotating handle 705. A plurality of suction cup heads 702 are installed at the bottom of the third base 704 through corresponding suction cup fittings 703. The suction cup heads 702 are arranged with their openings facing downwards. When the suction cup assembly 7 is in the first position, the third base 704 is arranged along the second direction. The rotating handle 705 is used to connect the third base 704 and the air guide slip ring 401. A pipeline communicating the vacuum generator 5 and the suction cup heads 702 is provided in the air guide slip ring 401, the rotating handle 705, the third base 704, and the suction cup fittings 703. When the suction cup assembly 7 is in the first position, the vacuum generator 5 is turned on, and the vacuum is transmitted to the suction cup heads 702 through the pipeline. The suction cup assembly 7 adsorbs the ampoule bottle 6. After the suction cup assembly 7 rotates to the corresponding position above the storage assembly 3, the vacuum generator 5 is turned off, and the suction cup assembly 7 releases the ampoule bottle 6, enabling the ampoule bottle 6 to enter the storage position. The suction cup heads 702 are connected to the third base 704 through the suction cup fittings 703, facilitating the disassembly, maintenance, or replacement of the suction cup heads 702 and reducing the maintenance cost of the device.

[0037] As Figure 2 shown, in some embodiments, a lifting assembly 2 is provided on the bracket 1, and the lifting assembly 2 can drive the air guide slip ring 401 to move along the first direction.

[0038] Specifically, when the ampoule bottle 6 to be turned around and the storage position of the storage assembly 3 are not at the same horizontal height, in order to facilitate the turning operation, a lifting assembly 2 is provided on the bracket 1, which can drive the air guide slip ring 401 and the suction cup assembly 7 to move along the first direction. When the suction cup assembly 7 is in the first position, the lifting assembly 2 drives the air guide slip ring 401 to move downward, so that the suction cup heads 702 of the suction cup assembly 7 are attached to the body of the ampoule bottle 6. Then the vacuum generator 5 is turned on, so that the ampoule bottle 6 is adsorbed on the suction cup assembly 7. The lifting assembly 2 drives the air guide slip ring 401 to move upward by a certain height to avoid knocking the ampoule bottle 6 during the rotation process. When the suction cup assembly 7 rotates to above the storage assembly 3 driven by the air guide slip ring 401, the lifting assembly 2 drives the air guide slip ring 401 to move downward again, so that the ampoule bottle 6 is attached to the corresponding storage position. The vacuum generator 5 is turned off, and the suction cup assembly 7 releases the ampoule bottle 6. The operation of the lifting assembly 2 driving the air guide slip ring 401 and the suction cup assembly 7 to move along the first direction improves the application range of the device, and makes the operations of adsorbing and releasing the ampoule bottle 6 more stable, reducing the possible damage to the ampoule bottle 6 during the operation.

[0039] As Figures 1 to 3As shown, in some embodiments, the lifting assembly 2 includes a ball screw 201 disposed along a first direction on the bracket 1, a lead screw nut 202 sleeved on the ball screw 201, a guide rail 203 and a slider 204 parallel to the ball screw 201 and fixed to the bracket 1, and a second driving member 205 for driving the ball screw 201 to rotate. The slider 204 and the lead screw nut 202 are fixedly connected, and the air conduction slip ring 401 is connected to the lead screw nut 202.

[0040] Specifically, under the driving action of the second driving member 205, the ball screw 201 rotates about its own axis along the first direction. With the aid of the guide rail 203 parallel to the ball screw 201 and fixed to the bracket 1 and the matching slider 204, as well as the fixed connection between the slider 204 and the lead screw nut 202, the lead screw nut 202 sleeved on the ball screw 201 can move along the first direction, driving the air conduction slip ring 401 connected to the lead screw nut 202 to move along the first direction, realizing the lifting operation of the suction cup assembly 7. Here, the second driving member 205 can be a conventional driving member such as a stepper motor, a servo motor, a cylinder or an oil cylinder.

[0041] In some embodiments, in order to stabilize the ball screw 201, matching guide rails 203 and sliders 204 are provided on both sides thereof. The lead screw nut 202 is connected to the two sliders 204 at the same time, improving the stability of the device and preventing the ball screw 201 from being displaced during rotation, resulting in device failure.

[0042] In other embodiments, the lifting assembly 2 can also adopt a hydraulic cylinder, an electric push rod or a trapezoidal lead screw, etc., which can also drive the rotary drive assembly 4 to move along the first direction.

[0043] As Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, in some embodiments, the lifting assembly 2 further includes a driving wheel 206 coaxially connected to the second driving member 205 and a driven wheel 207 coaxially connected to the ball screw 201, and a synchronous belt 208 is provided between the driving wheel 206 and the driven wheel 207.

[0044] Specifically, in order to reduce the height of the device and save the installation space, the second driving member 205 is installed on the side of the ball screw 201, and the rotation of the second driving member 205 is transmitted to the ball screw 201 through the cooperation of the driving wheel 206 and the driven wheel 207. The synchronous belt 208 meshes with the driving wheel 206 and the driven wheel 207 and is tensioned.

[0045] In some embodiments, the second driving member 205 is movably disposed on the second base 209. The second base 209 is fixed to the bracket 1. The second driving member 205 can move relative to the second base 209 in the third direction. When the device is used for a long time, the timing belt 208 becomes slack. At this time, moving the second driving member 205 in the third direction can tension the timing belt 208 and maintain the transmission effect of the device.

[0046] As Figure 2 and Figure 3 shown, in some embodiments, it includes a first base 403 fixedly connected to the lead screw nut 202. The first driving member 402 and the air conduction slip ring 401 are disposed on the first base 403.

[0047] Specifically, when the second driving member 205 drives the ball screw 201 to rotate, the lead screw nut 202 can drive the first base 403 to move in the first direction. The air conduction slip ring 401 and the first driving member 402 disposed on the first base 403 also move in the first direction under the drive of the lead screw nut 202 to realize the lifting operation of the device.

[0048] As Figures 1 to 4 shown, in some embodiments, the air conduction slip ring 401 includes a stator 404 and a rotor 405. Among them, the stator 404 is fixed to the first base 403 through the slip ring fixing bracket 406, and the rotor 405 is coaxially connected to the first driving member 402 through the coupling 407.

[0049] Specifically, the coupling 407 is connected to the rotor 405 through the rotating shaft 408. The rotating shaft 408 passes through the middle of the stator 404 and does not contact the stator 404. The vacuum generator 5 is communicated with the stator 404 through a pipeline. The suction cup assembly 7 is connected to the rotor 405 through the rotating handle 705. The first driving member 402, the coupling 407, and the air conduction slip ring 401 are coaxially arranged in the first direction. The rotor 405 can rotate relative to the stator 404 under the drive of the first driving member 402 and drive the connected suction cup assembly 7 to rotate around the first direction. The stator 404 is stationary relative to the vacuum generator 5 under the fixing action of the slip ring fixing bracket 406, maintaining the stability of the pipeline between the two and improving the practicability of the device.

[0050] As Figure 1 and Figure 2 shown, in some embodiments, the storage assembly 3 includes a bottle mouth side tooth-shaped plate 301 and a bottle bottom side tooth-shaped plate 302 for storing the ampoule bottle 6. A tooth-shaped plate connecting member 303 is provided between the bottle mouth side tooth-shaped plate 301 and the bottle bottom side tooth-shaped plate 302.

[0051] Specifically, a plurality of notches matching the mouth side of the ampoule bottle 6 are evenly distributed along the second direction on the mouth side serrated plate 301. Similarly, a plurality of notches matching the bottom side of the ampoule bottle 6 are evenly distributed along the second direction on the bottom side serrated plate 302. Each mouth side notch and the corresponding bottom side notch together form a storage position for the ampoule bottle 6. When the ampoule bottle 6 is driven by the rotation drive assembly 4 to move to the storage assembly 3, the cooperation between the mouth side serrated plate 301 and the bottom side serrated plate 302 can stably place the ampoule bottle 6 in the storage position. At the same time, in order to ensure the stability of the storage position, a serrated plate connecting member 303 is provided between the mouth side serrated plate 301 and the bottom side serrated plate 302 to prevent the mouth side serrated plate 301 or the bottom side serrated plate 302 from tipping over and causing breakage of the ampoule bottle 6.

[0052] As Figure 1 and Figure 2 shown, in some embodiments, the storage assembly 3 further includes a mouth end baffle 304 and a bottom end baffle 305, which are placed at both ends of the ampoule bottle 6 to prevent the ampoule bottle 6 from sliding.

[0053] The present disclosure also provides a horizontal ampoule bottle production line, which includes a horizontal ampoule bottle forming machine, the above-mentioned horizontal ampoule bottle turning device, and a horizontal ampoule bottle boxing machine arranged in sequence.

[0054] Specifically, when the horizontal ampoule bottle forming machine produces ampoule bottles with opposite bottoms, through the horizontal ampoule bottle turning device, after half of the ampoule bottles 6 with the same side facing are adsorbed by the suction cup assembly 7, driven by the rotation drive assembly 4, they are rotated to the storage assembly 3. At this time, the rotated ampoule bottles 6 are in the same orientation as the other half of the produced ampoule bottles 6. Then, through the horizontal ampoule bottle boxing machine located downstream of the horizontal ampoule bottle turning device on the horizontal ampoule bottle production line, the ampoule bottles 6 on the storage assembly 3 are taken away by the bottle taking mechanism on the horizontal ampoule bottle boxing machine for boxing. After the turning operation, the orientations of all the ampoule bottles 6 are the same, avoiding the direct boxing of ampoule bottles 6 with different orientations by the horizontal ampoule bottle boxing machine, reducing the jamming phenomenon during the boxing process, and improving the production efficiency of the horizontal ampoule bottle production line.

[0055] So far, the embodiments of the present disclosure have been described in detail. In order to avoid obscuring the concept of the present disclosure, some details well known in the art have not been described. Those skilled in the art can clearly understand how to implement the technical solutions disclosed here based on the above description.
