Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of Tetra Pak, and particularly relates to an automatic partition adding device for a Tetra Pak packaging device. Background Art

[0002] A Tetra Pak is composed of paper, polyethylene plastic and aluminum foil in a composite form, which can effectively isolate light, oxygen and external pollution, so as to ensure that the packaged contents can have a long shelf life without refrigeration and preservatives. It not only solves the challenge of the product shelf life during long-distance transportation, but also avoids food waste. At the same time, since cold chain equipment such as refrigerated trucks, refrigerated sales cabinets, and refrigerators are not required throughout the entire process of production, transportation, retail, storage, and consumption, it is naturally conducive to energy conservation and emission reduction, which has a positive significance for both protecting the social environment and reducing the "carbon footprint" of personal life.

[0003] The Tetra Pak with a screw cap is a common packaging form for beverages on the market. However, during transportation after being packed in a carton, the carton is prone to being deformed by pressure, resulting in damage to the screw cap. Therefore, when wrapping a carton of screw cap Tetra Pak, a support partition is usually added in the middle to prevent the carton from deforming and play a protective role for the screw cap.

[0004] The patent document with the publication number CN203283442U discloses a new type of Tetra Pak packaging machine. By arranging a block on the packaging box conveying device that can fold up the rear side plate of the packaging box, when the Tetra Pak is pushed into the packaging box, there is a rear side plate to block, avoiding the situation of tipping over. And since the process of folding up the rear side plate on the packaging device is moved to the packaging box conveying device, combining the two processes into one, the time of the entire packaging process is saved and the work efficiency is improved; further, a front block is arranged on the front side of the receiving device. After the receiving device finishes receiving, during the process of descending to the packaging device, the front side plate is folded up, so that the processes on the packaging device are further reduced and the work efficiency is greatly improved; further, front side blocks are arranged on the left and right side surfaces of the receiving device. After the receiving device finishes receiving, during the process of descending to the packaging device, the left and right ears are folded up, so that the processes on the packaging device are further reduced and the work efficiency is greatly improved.

[0005] Although the above-mentioned new type of Tetra Pak packaging machine can solve the corresponding technical problems, it does not have the function of automatically adding partitions. The partitions usually need to be filled manually, not only with low filling efficiency of the partitions, but also there are certain safety hazards during the filling process.

[0006] Therefore, we propose an automatic partition adding device for a Tetra Pak packaging device. Content of the Utility Model

[0048] Please refer to Figures 3-6, the storage component 31 includes a housing 311 disposed on the bracket B12 and inclined. The discharge end of the housing 311 is located above the conveyor belt A21. Two supports A3111 are respectively installed on both sides of the surface of the housing 311 by screws. Two of the supports A3111 are installed on the bracket B12, and the other two supports A3111 are installed on the bracket A11 by screws. By the cooperation of the supports A3111 and the screws, it is convenient to adjust the height and inclination angle of the housing 311 according to the actual use requirements. Two symmetric side plates A312 are provided at the top of the housing 311. Two symmetric partition plates A313 are also provided at the top of the housing 311. The partition plates A313 are located between the two side plates A312 and are arranged parallel to each other. The partition plates A313 and the side plates A312 cooperate to divide the top of the housing 311 into three cavities for storing partition plates, which can realize the simultaneous storage and conveying operations of three rows of partition plates, helping to improve the operation efficiency. Fixing connections are respectively made on the opposite sides of the two side plates A312 with adjusting rods A3121. A fixing connection is made on the adjusting rod A3121 with a hoop to an adjusting rod B3122 perpendicular to it. The adjusting rod B3122 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the housing 311.

Two supporting rollers 326 are rotatably connected to the inner wall surface of the housing 311 through bearings. The surface of the supporting rollers 326 contacts the bottom of the chain plate. The supporting rollers 326 can play an auxiliary supporting role for the chain plate located below, avoiding the phenomenon that the bottom of the chain plate sags due to its own gravity.

[0050] Please refer to Figures 3-7 , the material blocking assembly 33 includes a front blocking member 331 arranged at the discharging end of the housing 311. Three upper blocking members 332 are equidistantly distributed on one side of the front blocking member 331 facing the cavity.

Connecting the material guiding plate 3321 and the connecting block 3322 by screws can adjust the angle of the material guiding plate 3321 according to the size of the partition plate, which helps to improve the application range of the front baffle 331 and the upper baffle 332.

[0053] Please refer to Figures 3-6 Figures 3-6 , three groups of L-shaped plates 34 are installed on the outer surface of the housing 311 by screws. Each group of L-shaped plates 34 has two. The inner wall surface of the L-shaped plate 34 contacts the lower support rod B3312. Three connecting plates 35 are installed at the discharge end of the top of the housing 311 by screws. The connecting plates 35 are arranged in one-to-one correspondence with the material guiding plate 3321. One side of the connecting plate 35 contacts the outer surface of the corresponding group of L-shaped plates 34. The other side of the connecting plate 35 is in a toothed structure and contacts one side of the top of the corresponding chain plate. By connecting the L-shaped plates 34 with the housing 311 and the connecting plates 35 with the housing 311 by screws, it is convenient to adjust the positions of the L-shaped plates 34 and the connecting plates 35 according to the actual use requirements, which helps to improve the application range of the L-shaped plates 34 and the connecting plates 35. By the combined use of the L-shaped plates 34 and the connecting plates 35, the gaps between the housing 311 and the lower support rod B3312 and between the housing 311 and the chain plate can be blocked, avoiding the phenomenon of feeding jamming caused by the gaps during the conveying process of the partition plate, thus helping to improve the smoothness of the partition plate feeding. A counterweight block 36 for assisting in pushing each row of partition plates to move is placed in each cavity. The bottom of the counterweight block 36 contacts the top of the corresponding chain plate. The counterweight block 36 can counterweight each row of partition plates in the cavity, avoiding the phenomenon that the partition plates are too loose due to their light weight and difficult to grasp subsequently.

A V-shaped plate 4331 capable of contacting one side of the grasped partition is installed at the bottom of the support D433 by screws. The V-shaped plate 4331 can play a limiting role on the grasped partition, so that the partition can be stably placed on one side of the Tetra Pak.

[0059] The suction component 44 includes a hollow rod 441 symmetrically installed at the bottom of the support D433. On one side of the hollow rod 441 facing the cavity, there are two suction cups 442 arranged vertically. On one side of the hollow rod 441, there is a vent port that can be connected to an external air pump through a pipeline. By starting the external air pump, air can be sucked in and released from the suction cups 442. When sucking air, a negative pressure is formed inside the suction cups 442 to suck the partition board, so as to realize the partition board grasping operation. When releasing air, the suction cups 442 are separated from the partition board, realizing the partition board placing operation.

[0060] Embodiment 4

[0061] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 9 , the automatic partition adding device of a Tetra Pak packaging equipment provided in this embodiment is different from that in Embodiment 3 in that:

[0062] The packet pushing mechanism 5 includes a support plate 51 installed on the support A11. On one side of the support plate 51, there are a packet blocking component 52 and a packet pushing component 53 arranged oppositely. A material guiding component 54 is arranged on the packet pushing component 53. The suction cup 442 is located above the packet pushing component 53;

[0063] Among them, the packet blocking component 52 includes a cylinder D521 installed on one side of the support plate 51. The output end of the cylinder D521 is fixedly connected with a sliding seat A522. On one side of the sliding seat A522, a support rod C523 is horizontally installed through screws. On the surface of the support rod C523, two vertically arranged support rods D524 are installed through screws. The bottom ends of the two support rods D524 are horizontally installed with a baffle 525 through screws. By connecting the sliding seat A522 with the support rod C523, the support rod C523 with the support rod D524, and the support rod D524 with the baffle 525 by screws, it is convenient to adjust the positions of the sliding seat A522, the support rod C523, the support rod D524, and the baffle 525 according to actual usage requirements subsequently, which helps to improve the applicable range of the packet blocking component 52. The baffle 525 is located above the conveyor belt B22. The baffle 525 can limit the Tetra Pak moving from the conveyor belt A21 to the conveyor belt B22, avoiding the phenomenon of packet scattering during the pushing process. By starting the cylinder D521, the baffle 525 can be driven to move horizontally, and then the position can be adjusted according to the number of columns of the pushed Tetra Pak, so as to facilitate subsequent grouping during the conveying by the conveyor belt B22. A sliding hole 511 for the sliding seat A522 to pass through is opened on the support plate 51, and the inner wall surface of the sliding hole 511 is slidably connected with the sliding seat A522.

[0064] The pushing package component 53 includes a cylinder E531 installed on the other side of the support plate 51. The output end of the cylinder E531 is fixedly connected with a sliding seat B532. One side of the sliding seat B532 is horizontally installed with a support rod E533 arranged opposite to the support rod C523 by screws. Two vertically arranged support rods F534 are installed on the surface of the support rod E533 by screws. The bottom ends of the two support rods F534 are horizontally installed with a pushing plate 535 by screws together. By connecting the sliding seat B532 with the support rod E533, the support rod E533 with the support rod F534, and the support rod F534 with the pushing plate 535 by screws, it is convenient to adjust the positions of the sliding seat B532, the support rod E533, the support rod F534, and the pushing plate 535 according to the actual use requirements subsequently, which helps to improve the applicable range of the pushing package component 53. The pushing plate 535 is located above the support B12. By starting the cylinder E531, the pushing plate 535 can be driven to move horizontally, and then the Tetra Pak and the partition can be pushed onto the conveyor belt B22. The distance between the bottom of the baffle 525 and the top of the conveyor belt B22, and between the pushing plate 535 and the top of the support B12 is less than half of the height of the Tetra Pak to ensure the stability of pushing the Tetra Pak. Two vertically arranged slide rails B55 are horizontally fixedly connected to the side of the support plate 51 facing the material guiding component 54. The sliding seat A522 and the sliding seat B532 are respectively slidably connected to the surfaces of the slide rails B55. The slide rails B55 can play a guiding role for the sliding seat A522 and the sliding seat B532, which helps to improve the stability of the sliding seat A522 and the sliding seat B532 when moving.

[0065] The material guiding assembly 54 includes a support E541 installed on the surface of the support rod E533 by screws. On one side of the support E541 facing the support rod C523, a cylinder F542 is installed. The output end of the cylinder F542 is horizontally and fixedly connected to a support F543. On one side of the bottom of the support F543, an L-shaped stop bar 544 is installed by screws. The distance between the L-shaped stop bar 544 and the push plate 535 is adapted to the width of two rows of Tetra Paks. By the combined use of the push plate 535 and the L-shaped stop bar 544, it can limit the two rows of Tetra Paks conveyed below the grasping and placing mechanism 4, so as to facilitate the subsequent placement of the partition. At the bottom of the support F543, a guide plate 545 is also installed by screws. The guide plate 545 is located between the push plate 535 and the L-shaped stop bar 544. Through the guide plate 545, it can guide the two rows of Tetra Paks conveyed on the support B12 to ensure the neatness of the Tetra Paks. The guide plate 545, the L-shaped stop bar 544, the push plate 535 and the baffle 525 are arranged in parallel to each other. Along the length direction of the top of the L-shaped stop bar 544, four equally spaced guide blocks 546 are installed by screws. A through groove for guiding the partition is formed between two adjacent guide blocks 546. The through grooves are arranged in one-to-one correspondence with the cavities. Through the through grooves, it can guide the partition and prevent the partition from being placed obliquely. By connecting the support E541 and the support rod E533, the support F543 and the L-shaped stop bar 544, the support F543 and the guide plate 545, and the L-shaped stop bar 544 and the guide blocks 546 with screws, it is convenient to adjust the positions of the support E541, the L-shaped stop bar 544, the guide plate 545 and the guide blocks 546 according to the actual use requirements, which helps to improve the applicable range of the material guiding assembly 54.

[0066] The working principle of the present utility model is:

[0067] Tetra Pak conveying: Place two rows of Tetra Paks on the support B12. The support B12 conveys the Tetra Paks between the push plate 535 and the L-shaped stop bar 544. The guide plate 545 is inserted between the two rows of Tetra Paks to guide the Tetra Paks conveyed by the support B12 until the Tetra Paks are conveyed in place.

[0068] Partition conveying: Place several partitions evenly in the three cavities. Place a counterweight 36 in each cavity so that the counterweight 36 weights the several partitions in the cavity, making the several partitions contact each other. Start the cylinder A324. The output end of the cylinder A324 drives the swing arm 325 to rotate. The swing arm 325 drives the corresponding shaft rod 321 to rotate, so that the shaft rod 321 drives the chain plate through the sprocket 322 to convey the partitions in the cavity to the material blocking assembly 33, and further makes the outermost partition contact the roller 3316 and wait to be grabbed.

[0069] For the pushing and arranging column in the first row of each group: Start cylinder D521, so that the output end of cylinder D521 drives the sliding seat A522 to slide on the surface of the slide rail B55. The sliding seat A522 drives the support rod C523, support rod D524 and baffle 525 to move synchronously towards the direction of the support rod E533 until the baffle 525 is located on one side of the top of the conveyor belt B22 close to the support B12. Start cylinder F542, and the output end of cylinder F542 drives the support F543, L-shaped stop bar 544, guide plate 545 and guide block 546 to move upward synchronously, so that the L-shaped stop bar 544, guide plate 545 and guide block 546 move away from the Tetra Pak, thereby making the Tetra Pak lose restraint. Then start cylinder E531, and the output end of cylinder E531 drives the sliding seat B532 to slide on the surface of the slide rail B55. The sliding seat B532 drives the support rod E533, support rod F534, push plate 535 and feeding component 54 to move synchronously towards the direction of the baffle 525, so that the push plate 535 pushes the Tetra Pak on one side towards the direction of the baffle 525. When the Tetra Pak contacts the baffle 525, start cylinder D521 again, so that the push plate 535 and the baffle 525 cooperate to push the Tetra Pak until the Tetra Pak is pushed to the top of the conveyor belt B22. Then start the output end of cylinder E531 to drive the push plate 535 to reset, and the output end of cylinder F542 to drive the L-shaped stop bar 544, guide plate 545 and guide block 546 to reset;

[0070] Partition picking and placing: Start cylinder B421, and the output end of cylinder B421 drives the support C422 to move towards the outermost partition. The support C422 drives the slider 423, displacement component B43 and suction component 44 to move synchronously. The support C422 slides on the surface of the slider 423 until the suction cup 442 and the V-shaped plate 4331 are respectively attached to one side of the outermost partition. Inhale air into the suction cup 442 through an external air pump, so that a negative pressure is formed in the suction cup 442 to suck the partition. The output end of cylinder B421 drives the displacement component B43 and the suction component 44 away from the housing 311 until the grasped partition is moved above the through groove. Start cylinder C431, and the output end of cylinder C431 drives the support D433, guide rod 434 and suction component 44 to move downward synchronously until the bottom of the partition is inserted into the corresponding through groove. Release the air in the suction cup 442 through an external air pump, so that the suction cup 442 is separated from the partition. At this time, the partition falls to one side of the top of the support B12 in the through groove by its own gravity, thereby realizing the partition placement operation. At the same time, the support B12 conveys the Tetra Pak again between the push plate 535 and the L-shaped stop bar 544;

[0071] Pushing and aligning the remaining rows in each group: After the partition is placed in position, start cylinder F542. The output end of cylinder F542 drives the L-shaped stop bar 544, the guide plate 545, and the guide block 546 away from the Tetra Pak. Start cylinder E531. The output end of cylinder E531 drives the push plate 535 to push the Tetra Pak on one side thereof in the direction of the baffle 525 until the Tetra Pak is pushed to the top of the conveyor belt B22, so that the Tetra Pak can be pushed row by row onto the conveyor belt B22;

[0072] Transportation grouping: When the partitions of a group of Tetra Paks are placed, start the conveyor belt B22. The conveyor belt B22 can move the grouped Tetra Paks towards the packaging equipment for subsequent sub-packaging operations of the Tetra Paks.
