Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of petri dish palletizing and labeling, and particularly relates to a labeling device for petri dishes. Background Art

[0002] Before being bagged and packed, petri dishes need to go through a labeling process first. However, current labeling machines generally rely on workers to manually send multiple stacked petri dishes into the labeling station, but this method has low work efficiency, resulting in low production efficiency; or, use a conveyor belt for linear transmission, but this method occupies a large area, and the petri dishes are prone to tipping during the transmission process.

[0003] Meanwhile, during the production and packing process of petri dishes, a certain number of petri dishes need to be palletized first and then transported to the next process for heat sealing and bagging. However, currently, it basically relies on manual palletizing, resulting in low production efficiency. Summary of the Utility Model

[0004] The utility model aims to solve at least one of the technical problems existing in the prior art. For this purpose, the utility model provides a labeling device for petri dishes, which realizes automatic stacking and labeling, and improves production efficiency.

[0005] According to an embodiment of the utility model, the labeling device for petri dishes includes:

[0006] A conveying module, which is composed of a feeding conveyor belt and a buffer device arranged in sequence along the conveying direction;

[0007] A stacking module, which is arranged between the discharging end of the feeding conveyor belt and the buffer device. A second transfer device is arranged between the stacking module and the buffer device, and the second transfer device is used to transfer the palletized petri dishes on the stacking module to the buffer device;

[0008] A labeling module, which includes a rotary fixture, a labeling device, a flapping device, and a heating device arranged in sequence along the rotation direction of the rotary fixture. The feeding port of the rotary fixture is connected to the discharging end of the buffer device. A plurality of clamping mechanisms are arranged on the rotary fixture at intervals around the axis of the rotary fixture. The labeling device is erected above any one of the clamping mechanisms. The flapping device is used to straighten the labeled petri dishes, and the heating device is used to thermoplastically fix the film on the petri dishes;

[0009] A control module, which is electrically connected to the conveying module, the stacking module, and the labeling module.

[0010] The label sleeving device for petri dishes according to the embodiments of the present utility model has at least the following beneficial effects: From the feeding of petri dishes to the stacking and piling, and to the subsequent label sleeving, the whole process is automated without manual operation, and the production efficiency is high. Specifically, a single petri dish is automatically fed and conveyed to the stacking module by the feeding conveyor belt. After the stacking and piling of petri dishes are completed in the stacking module, the second transfer device transfers the stacked and piled petri dishes to the buffer device. Due to the difference between the stacking speed and the label sleeving speed, the buffer device is used as a temporary transfer mechanism to temporarily store the stacked and piled petri dishes, effectively ensuring the production efficiency and avoiding the suspension of one of the two processes due to the operation time difference between the two processes. After the petri dishes stacked on the buffer device are conveyed to the clamping mechanism, the rotating fixture rotates to transfer the petri dish to be sleeved with a label to the position corresponding to the label sleeving device for the label sleeving process. Among them, along the rotation direction of the rotating fixture, the rotating fixture is successively provided with a feeding station, a label sleeving station, a patting station, a heat shrinkage station, and a discharging station. Specifically, the feeding station is correspondingly connected to the buffer device, the label sleeving station is located below the label sleeving device, the patting station is located below the patting device, the heat shrinkage station is arranged beside the heating device, and the discharging station is arranged at any position downstream of the heat shrinkage station. Further, after the petri dish is sleeved with a label, the patting device adjusts the film of the product that has not been well sleeved coming from the label sleeving station to ensure the label sleeving quality of the petri dish. Subsequently, the petri dish with the film sleeved is transported to the heat shrinkage station. The heating device is started to heat the film sleeved outside the petri dish, so that the film shrinks by heating to fix the petri dish, and then it is transported to the discharging station, and the discharging device takes out the petri dish on the clamping mechanism. Specifically, the discharging device can be a mechanical hand for taking materials or manual taking materials.

[0011] For the label sleeving device for petri dishes according to the embodiments of the present utility model, the stacking module includes a frame, a first lifting device installed on the frame, and a stacking platform installed on the first lifting device. The first lifting device drives the stacking platform to move in the longitudinal direction, and the top plane of the stacking platform filled with petri dishes is at the same horizontal level as the feeding end of the buffer device.

[0012] For the label sleeving device for petri dishes according to the embodiments of the present utility model, the buffer device includes a buffer conveyor belt and a buffer bin arranged on the buffer conveyor belt. First baffles are arranged on both opposite sides of the buffer conveyor belt, and the space between the two first baffles forms the buffer bin.

[0013] For the label sleeving device for petri dishes according to the embodiments of the present utility model, a first transfer device is further arranged between the feeding conveyor belt and the stacking platform, and the first transfer device is used to transfer the petri dishes to be stacked on the feeding conveyor belt to the stacking platform.

[0014] The working principle of the stacking device and the buffer device is as follows: When the petri dishes to be stacked are conveyed to the discharge end by the feeding conveyor belt, the first translation cylinder is activated to drive the adsorption mechanism to move above the petri dishes. Subsequently, the second lifting cylinder is activated to drive the adsorption mechanism to descend close to and adsorb the petri dishes on the feeding conveyor belt to the stacking platform for palletizing and stacking. Among them, for each layer of petri dishes stacked, the first lifting device drives the stacking platform to descend by a preset height. When the stacking is completed, the stacking platform is also driven by the first lifting device to descend to the same height as the buffer device. At this time, the second transfer device is activated to transfer the petri dishes on the stacking platform to the buffer device for temporary storage to wait for the next process.

[0015] According to the label sleeving device for petri dishes of the embodiment of the present invention, the rotary fixture includes a rotating mechanism, a circular turntable mounted on the rotating mechanism, and a clamping mechanism arranged on the turntable. The clamping mechanism includes a mounting seat fixed on the turntable, a clamping drive mounted on the mounting seat, and four clamping rods arranged on the output end of the clamping drive. The four clamping rods are circumferentially arranged around the axis of the mounting seat. The clamping drive drives the clamping rods to move away from or close to the axis of the mounting seat. The four clamping rods and the mounting seat together form a sorting cavity for placing petri dishes. The specific working principle is as follows: The rotating mechanism drives the turntable to rotate so that the petri dishes are sequentially switched to different stations. Specifically, the clamping drive first drives the four clamping rods to move, increasing the distance between the clamping rods to facilitate the entry of the petri dishes into the sorting cavity. When the petri dishes enter the sorting cavity, the clamping drive drives the clamping rods to reset and clamp the petri dishes. Subsequently, the rotating mechanism is activated to transfer the petri dishes to the station corresponding to the film sleeving device for film sleeving. When the petri dishes to be sleeved reach the film sleeving station, the clamping drive is activated to release the clamping of the petri dishes to facilitate the label sleeving device to perform film sleeving. After the film sleeving is completed, the clamping rods clamp the petri dishes again. The rotating mechanism transfers the petri dishes that have completed film sleeving to the patting station for sorting, and then to the heat shrinkage station for film heating and shrinkage, and finally to the blanking station. Among them, while clamping the petri dishes, the clamping mechanism also sorts the stacked and palletized petri dishes to make the central axes of the petri dishes coaxial to ensure smooth film sleeving during film sleeving, and to ensure the film sleeving efficiency and quality.

[0040] Referring to Figures 1 to 5 , an embodiment of the present utility model provides a label sleeving device for a culture dish, including a conveying module 100, which is composed of a feeding conveyor belt 110 and a buffer device 120 arranged in sequence along the conveying direction; a stacking module 200, which is arranged between the discharge end of the feeding conveyor belt and the buffer device 120. A second transfer device 210 is arranged between the stacking module 200 and the buffer device 120, and the second transfer device 210 is used to transfer the culture dishes that have been palletized on the stacking module 200 to the buffer device 120; a label sleeving module 300, including a rotary jig 310, a label sleeving device 320, a flapping device 330, and a heating device 340 arranged in sequence along the rotation direction of the rotary jig 310. The feeding port of the rotary jig 310 is connected to the discharge end of the buffer device 120. A plurality of clamping mechanisms 350 are arranged on the rotary jig 310 at intervals around the axis of the rotary jig 310. The label sleeving device 320 is installed above any one of the clamping mechanisms 350. The flapping device 330 is used to arrange the culture dishes with labels sleeved, and the heating device 340 is used to thermoplastically fix the film on the culture dish; a control module 400, which is electrically connected to the conveying module 100, the stacking module 200, and the label sleeving module 300.

[0041] Specifically, the flapping device 330 is composed of a flapping cylinder and a flapping rod installed at the output end of the flapping cylinder. Among them, an adjustment groove is arranged on the flapping rod, and the output end of the flapping cylinder is inserted into the adjustment groove. The position of the flapping rod relative to the culture dish can be adjusted through the adjustment groove. Further, a silica gel pad is arranged at the end of the flapping rod to avoid damaging the appearance of the culture dish when the end of the flapping rod flaps the culture dish.

[0042] From feeding the culture dishes to stacking and palletizing them, and then to subsequent labeling, the whole process is automated without manual operation, with high production efficiency. Specifically, a single culture dish is automatically fed and conveyed to the stacking module 200 by the feeding conveyor belt 110. After the culture dishes are stacked and palletized in the stacking module 200, the second transfer device 210 transfers the stacked and palletized culture dishes to the buffer device 120. Due to the difference between the stacking speed and the labeling speed, the buffer device 120 is used as a temporary transfer mechanism to temporarily store the culture dishes that have been stacked and palletized, effectively ensuring the production efficiency and avoiding the suspension of one of the two processes due to the operation time difference between the two processes. After the culture dishes stacked on the buffer device 120 are conveyed to the clamping mechanism 350, the rotary fixture 310 rotates to transfer the culture dish to be labeled to the position corresponding to the labeling device 320 for the labeling process. Among them, along the rotation direction of the rotary fixture 310, the rotary fixture 310 is successively provided with a feeding station, a labeling station, a slapping station, a heat-sealing station, and a discharging station. Specifically, the feeding station is correspondingly connected to the buffer device, the labeling station is located below the labeling device 320, the slapping station is located below the slapping device 330, the heat-sealing station is arranged beside the heating device 340, and the discharging station is arranged at any position downstream of the heat-sealing station. Further, after the culture dish is labeled, the slapping device 330 adjusts the film of the product that has not been properly labeled coming from the labeling station to ensure the labeling quality of the culture dish. Subsequently, the culture dish with the film sleeved is transported to the heat-sealing station. The heating device 340 is started to heat the film sleeved outside the culture dish, so that the film shrinks due to heat and fixes the culture dish, and then it is transported to the discharging station, and the discharging device takes out the culture dish of the clamping mechanism 350. Specifically, the discharging device can be a mechanical hand for picking or manual picking.

[0043] Among them, the heating device 340 is a device that can output hot air, and specifically can be a hot air gun.

[0044] According to some embodiments of the present application, a first transfer device 111 is further provided between the loading conveyor belt 110 and the stacking platform 240. The first transfer device 111 is used to transfer the petri dishes to be stacked on the loading conveyor belt to the stacking platform 240. Specifically, the stacking module 200 includes a frame 220, a first lifting device 230 installed on the frame 220, and a stacking platform 240 installed on the first lifting device 230. The first lifting device 230 drives the stacking platform 240 to move in the longitudinal direction. The top plane of the stacking platform 240 filled with petri dishes is at the same horizontal level as the feeding end of the buffer device 120. As shown in the figure, the buffer device 120 includes a buffer conveyor belt 121 and a buffer bin 122 provided on the buffer conveyor belt 121. First baffles 123 are provided on both opposite sides of the buffer conveyor belt 121, and the space between the two first baffles 123 forms the buffer bin 122. Further, the first transfer device 111 includes a first translation mechanism installed on the frame 220, a second lifting cylinder 1112 installed on the first translation mechanism, and an adsorption mechanism 1113 installed on the output end of the second lifting cylinder 1112. The adsorption mechanism 1113 is used to suck the petri dishes on the loading conveyor belt.

[0045] According to some embodiments of the present application, the second transfer device 210 includes a second translation cylinder 211 installed on the loading conveyor belt and a [not fully described part] installed on the output end of the second translation cylinder 211. The second translation cylinder 211 drives the first push plate to move linearly back and forth to push the stacked and palletized petri dishes on the stacking platform 240 onto the buffer device 120.

[0046] According to some embodiments of the present application, an anti-tipping mechanism 250 is further provided on the frame 220. Specifically, the anti-tipping mechanism 250 includes a third lifting cylinder 251 installed on the frame 220, a third translation cylinder 252 installed on the output end of the third lifting cylinder 251, and a second push plate 253 installed on the output end of the third translation cylinder 252. The second push plate 253 and the first push plate respectively push against both sides of the petri dish. When the third translation cylinder 252 is activated to drive the first push plate close to the petri dish to be transferred, the third translation cylinder 252 is simultaneously activated to make the second push plate 253 close to the petri dish. After both push plates abut against both sides of the petri dish, the second translation cylinder 211 continues to move towards the buffer device 120, while the third translation cylinder 252 stops moving towards the petri dish and starts to drive the second push plate 253 to move in the opposite direction. The first push plate and the second push plate 253 clamp the petri dish and move the petri dish to the buffer conveyor belt 121, effectively preventing the petri dish from tipping over during the transfer process and affecting the production efficiency. The structure is simple and practical. When the petri dish is transferred onto the buffer conveyor belt 121, the third lifting cylinder 251 drives the second push plate 253 to move upward, so that the petri dish on the buffer conveyor belt 121 is conveyed to the next process.

[0047] The working principle of the stacking platform 240 is as follows: When the culture dishes to be stacked are conveyed to the discharge end by the feeding conveyor belt, the first translation cylinder 1114 is activated to drive the adsorption mechanism 1113 to move above the culture dishes. Subsequently, the second lifting cylinder 1112 is activated to drive the adsorption mechanism 1113 to descend close to and adsorb the culture dishes on the feeding conveyor belt to the stacking platform 240 for stacking. Among them, for each layer of stacked culture dishes, the first lifting device 230 drives the stacking platform 240 to descend by a preset height. When the stacking is completed, the stacking platform 240 is also driven by the first lifting device 230 to descend to the same height as the buffer device 120. At this time, the second transfer device 210 is activated to transfer the culture dishes on the stacking platform 240 to the buffer device 120 for temporary storage and waiting for the next process.

[0048] According to some embodiments of the present application, the rotary fixture 310 includes a rotating mechanism 311, a circular turntable 312 mounted on the rotating mechanism 311, and a clamping mechanism 350 provided on the turntable 312. The clamping mechanism 350 includes a mounting seat 351 fixed on the turntable 312, a clamping drive 352 mounted on the mounting seat 351, and four clamping rods 353 provided at the output end of the clamping drive 352. The four clamping rods 353 are circumferentially arranged around the axis of the mounting seat 351. The clamping drive 352 drives the clamping rods 353 to move away from or close to the axis of the mounting seat 351. The four clamping rods 353 and the mounting seat 351 together form a sorting cavity 354 for placing culture dishes. The specific working principle is as follows: The rotating mechanism 311 drives the turntable 312 to rotate so that the culture dishes are sequentially switched to different workstations. Specifically, the clamping drive 352 first drives the four clamping rods to move, increasing the distance between the clamping rods to facilitate the entry of the culture dishes into the sorting cavity 354. When the culture dishes enter the sorting cavity 354, the clamping drive 352 drives the clamping rods to reset and clamp the culture dishes. Subsequently, the rotating mechanism 311 is activated and the culture dishes are transported to the workstation corresponding to the film covering device for film covering. When the culture dish to be film-covered is rotated to the film covering workstation, the clamping drive 352 is activated to release the clamping of the culture dishes so that the labeling device 320 can perform film covering. After the film covering is completed, the clamping rods clamp the culture dishes again. The rotating mechanism 311 rotates the culture dishes that have completed film covering to the patting workstation for sorting, and then to the heat shrinkage workstation for heat shrinking the film, and finally to the blanking workstation. Among them, the clamping mechanism 350 sorts the stacked and palletized culture dishes while clamping the culture dishes, making the central axes of the culture dishes coaxial to ensure smooth film covering during film covering, and ensuring the film covering efficiency and quality.

[0049] Furthermore, a third transfer device 500 is provided between the rotary fixture 310 and the buffer device 120. The third transfer device 500 is used to transfer the culture dishes on the buffer device 120 to the clamping mechanism 350. Optionally, the third transfer device 500 can be a picking manipulator.

[0050] According to some embodiments of the present application, a waiting device 360 is provided between the rotary fixture 310 and the buffer device 120. The waiting device 360 includes a transfer conveyor belt 361 and a pusher mechanism 362 disposed at the discharge end of the transfer conveyor belt 361. The third transfer device 500 is disposed at the feed end of the transfer conveyor belt 361. The pusher mechanism 362 is used to push the petri dish on the transfer conveyor belt 361 into the sorting cavity 354. Specifically, the pusher mechanism 362 is composed of a material transfer component and a waiting component. The material transfer component includes a receiving table 3621 disposed at the discharge end of the transfer conveyor belt 361 and a pusher component disposed on the receiving table 3621. The receiving table 3621 is connected to the feed port of the waiting component, and the pusher component moves the petri dish on the receiving table 3621 into the waiting component. The pusher cylinder 3625 of the material transfer component pushes the petri dish to be film-covered on the receiving table 3621 onto the waiting table 3622. When the clamping mechanism 350 without a placed petri dish rotates to a position corresponding to the waiting table 3622 driven by the rotating mechanism 311, the pusher cylinder 3625 of the waiting component pushes the petri dish on the waiting table 3622 into the sorting cavity 354.

[0051] Specifically, the waiting component includes a waiting table 3622 and a pusher component. One end of the waiting table 3622 is connected to the receiving table 3621, and the other end is connected to the sorting cavity 354. The pusher component is disposed on the waiting table 3622 and is used to move the petri dish on the waiting table 3622 into the sorting cavity 354.

[0052] Specifically, the pusher component is composed of a pusher cylinder 3625 and a pusher plate 3626. The pusher plate 3626 is installed on the output end of the pusher cylinder 3625710.

[0053] Furthermore, a transition component is also provided in the waiting component. Specifically, as shown in the figure, the transition component includes a transition cylinder 3623 installed on the waiting table 3622 and a transition plate 3624 disposed on the output end of the transition cylinder 3623. The transition cylinder 3623 drives the transition plate 3624 to reciprocate to change the connection state between the waiting table 3622 and the sorting cavity 354. When the sorting cavity 354 in the neutral state rotates to wait for the petri dish at the discharge end of the waiting component, the transition cylinder 3623 is activated to push the transition plate 3624 into the sorting cavity 354. At this time, the waiting table 3622 is connected to the sorting cavity 354, and the pusher cylinder 3625 is activated. The pusher plate 3626 pushes the petri dish on the waiting table 3622 into the sorting cavity 354. After the feeding is completed, the transition cylinder 3623 is activated again to reset the transition plate 3624. At this time, the waiting component is disconnected from the clamping mechanism 350.

[0054] Furthermore, the mounting base 351 is provided with a circular material placing table 370 for supporting the culture dish. The end of the transition plate 3624 facing the material sorting chamber 354 is provided with an arc-shaped clamping interface, and the clamping interface is clamped with the arc-shaped surface of the material placing table 370, which helps to ensure the stability of the culture dish during movement.
