[0001] The utility model relates to the field of blood glucose test strip preparation, and particularly relates to a bottle capping tooling for blood glucose test strips. Background Technique

[0002] In recent years, with the improvement of the material living standard of human beings, the prevalence rate of diabetes shows a rapid growth trend. Self-blood glucose monitoring is one of the important means for managing diabetic patients, and its importance in blood glucose control has been fully affirmed. Through blood glucose monitoring, patients can clearly know whether they are in a dangerous area, so as to stay away from the blood glucose dangerous area, achieve the treatment goal, and improve the quality of life of patients. The blood glucose test strip commonly used for self-blood glucose monitoring is used in conjunction with a blood glucose detection and analysis instrument, and is a common disposable diagnostic reagent medical consumable for in vitro monitoring of the glucose concentration value in human capillary whole blood and venous whole blood through the chemical reaction change of the coated biological enzyme.

[0003] In the preparation process of blood glucose test strips, after being cut into strips, they need to be bottled and then capped. The existing bottle capping device for blood glucose test strips usually consists of a cap handling device and a capping device. After the handling device transports a certain number of caps at one time and places them on the bottle body, the capping device presses them tightly onto the bottle body. The capping efficiency of this method is limited by the speed of the handling device and the number of caps transported at one time, and at the same time, it also makes the structure of the device more complex. Content of the Utility Model

[0004] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a bottle capping tooling for blood glucose test strips. This tooling simultaneously completes the handling and pressing of the cap through a capping mechanism, reduces the complexity of the equipment mechanism, and improves the capping efficiency of the blood glucose test strip bottle at the same time.

[0006] A bottle capping tooling for blood glucose test strips includes a frame and a blanking device, a capping mechanism, and a feeding guide rail arranged on the frame. The blanking device is arranged above the capping mechanism and is used to convey the caps into the capping mechanism. The feeding guide rail is arranged below the capping mechanism and is used to move the bottle body to the lower side of the capping mechanism. The capping mechanism moves the cap onto the feeding guide rail and at the same time presses the cap tightly onto the bottle body.

[0007] In the above technical solution, preferably, the capping mechanism includes a transfer disk and an arc plate. The transfer disk is rotatably arranged on the frame in a clockwise direction through a driving device. A number of first baffles are arranged on the transfer disk, and a first groove for a single cap to be inserted is formed between every two first baffles. The arc plate is circular arc-shaped and fixed on the frame. The arc plate is close to the right side of the transfer disk, and the center of the circle where the arc plate is located is on the rotation axis of the transfer disk.

[0018] Among them, there are a frame 1, a blanking device 2, a capping mechanism 3, a material transfer plate 31, an arc plate 32, a first baffle 33, a first trough 34, a feeding guide rail 4, a conveyor belt 41, a second baffle 42, a second trough 43, a limiting rod 44, a support seat 45, a hand screw 46, a bottle cap 5, a bottle body 6, and a transparent plate 7. Detailed implementation manners

[0019] The present utility model will be further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and through embodiments. The following embodiments are explanations of the present utility model, and the present utility model is not limited to the following embodiments.

[0020] See Figure 1 - Figure 4 , a capping tool for a blood glucose test strip bottle in this embodiment includes a frame 1, a blanking device 2, a capping mechanism 3, and a feeding guide rail 4 provided on the frame 1. The blanking device 2 is arranged above the capping mechanism 3 and the blanking device 2 is used to convey the bottle cap 5 into the capping mechanism 3. The feeding guide rail 4 is arranged below the capping mechanism 3 and the feeding guide rail 4 is used to move the bottle body 6 to the lower side of the capping mechanism 3. The capping mechanism 3 moves the bottle cap 5 onto the feeding guide rail 4 and at the same time presses the bottle cap 5 onto the bottle body 6.

[0021] The present utility model continuously inputs the bottle cap 5 into the capping mechanism 3 through the blanking device 2. At the same time, the bottle body 6 is continuously moved to the lower side of the capping mechanism 3 through the feeding guide rail 4. The capping mechanism 3 transports and places the bottle caps 5 one by one onto the bottle body 6 and presses the bottle caps 5 at the same time, so that the bottle caps 5 are pressed onto the bottle body 6 to achieve capping of the blood glucose test strip bottle. Since the transportation and pressing of the bottle cap 5 in the present utility model are both completed by the capping mechanism 3, the complexity of the equipment mechanism is reduced, and the operation of inputting the bottle cap 5 above the capping mechanism 3 and the operation of pressing the bottle cap 5 below the capping mechanism 3 can be carried out simultaneously, thereby improving the capping efficiency of the blood glucose test strip bottle.

[0022] See Figure 1 , Figure 2 , the capping mechanism 3 includes a material transfer plate 31 and an arc plate 32. The material transfer plate 31 is rotatably arranged on the frame 1 in a clockwise direction through a driving device. A plurality of first baffles 33 are arranged on the material transfer plate 31, and a first trough 34 for a single bottle cap 5 to be inserted is formed between every two first baffles 33. The arc plate 32 is circular arc-shaped and fixed on the frame 1. The arc plate 32 is close to the right side of the material transfer plate 31, and the center of the circle where the arc plate 32 is located is on the rotation axis of the material transfer plate 31.

[0023] The blanking device 2 sequentially places the bottle caps 5 into the first trough body 34. The height of the first baffle 33 is adapted to the thickness of the bottle cap 5 so that only one bottle cap 5 can be placed in each first trough body 34. The driving device (such as a motor) drives the transfer tray 31 to rotate clockwise, thereby moving the bottle cap 5 between the transfer tray 31 and the arc-shaped plate 32. The arc-shaped plate 32 is used to prevent the bottle cap 5 from falling off the first trough body 34. After the bottle cap 5 moves to the lower side of the arc-shaped plate 32, a part of the bottle cap 5 is separated from the arc-shaped plate 32. At this time, the bottle body 6 moves leftward under the action of the feeding guide rail 4, so that the upper end of the bottle body 6 abuts against the inner wall of the bottle cap 5. With the continuous rotation of the transfer tray 31 and the leftward movement of the feeding guide rail 4, the bottle cap 5 finally detaches from the arc-shaped plate 32 and is placed on the bottle body 6. Then, the bottle cap 5 and the bottle body 6 move to the lower side of the transfer tray 31, and the bottle cap 5 is pressed onto the bottle body 6 under the extrusion of the transfer tray 31 and the feeding guide rail 4. The present utility model realizes the handling and pressing operations of the bottle cap 5 through the rotation of the transfer tray 31. Compared with the structure in the existing equipment where both the handling device and the capping mechanism 3 perform reciprocating movements on linear guide rails, the present utility model has the advantage of simple structure. At the same time, the present utility model can realize continuous capping operations, and the capping efficiency is no longer limited by the number of bottle caps 5 that can be handled at one time by the existing handling device. Moreover, the rotation speed of the transfer tray 31 in one direction is usually faster than that of the reciprocating linear guide rail structure, thereby improving the capping efficiency.

[0024] See Figure 1 A transparent plate 7 is provided on the front side of the transfer tray 31, and the transparent plate 7 is fixed on the frame 1.

[0025] The transparent plate 7 and the frame 1 prevent the bottle caps 5 in the arc-shaped plate 32 from falling off the transfer tray 31. At the same time, through the transparent plate 7, the movement of the bottle caps 5 in the transfer tray 31 and the lower outlet of the blanking device 2 can be observed, which is convenient for the staff to quickly find the fault location for repair.

[0026] See Figure 1 、 Figure 3 A conveyor belt 41 moving leftward is provided on the feeding guide rail 4, and a number of second baffles 42 are provided on the conveyor belt 41, and a second trough body 43 for the bottle body 6 to be inserted is formed between every two second baffles 42.

[0027] The bottle body 6 is limited by being inserted into the second trough body 43, so that the bottle body 6 can be matched with the position of the bottle cap 5 under the action of the conveyor belt 41, and at the same time, it plays a role in fixing the bottle body 6 when the transfer tray 31 presses. In the present utility model, the distance between adjacent second trough bodies 43 is adapted to the distance between adjacent first trough bodies 34, and the rotation speed of the transfer tray 31 and the moving speed of the conveyor belt 41 are also adapted to each other, so that each bottle cap 5 can be placed on the corresponding bottle body 6, ensuring the continuous progress of the capping operation.

[0028] See Figure 3 Figure 3 , on the front and rear sides of the feeding guide rail 4, there are two limiting rods 44 that are symmetrically arranged before and after the feeding guide rail 4. A support seat 45 is fixed on the feeding guide rail 4. The limiting rods 44 are slidably arranged in the support seat 45 in the front and rear directions, and a hand screw 46 for fixing the limiting rods 44 is arranged on the support seat 45.

[0029] See Figure 4 Figure 4 , the blanking device 2 is in a funnel shape, which is convenient for the blanking device 2 to connect with the feeding device to input the bottle caps 5 into the blanking device 2. The feeding device can adopt a vibrating disk, which can realize inputting the bottle caps 5 into the blanking device 2 in a posture with the grooves facing up for stacking. The lower side of the blanking device 2 is cylindrical and only one bottle cap 5 can be output from the lower outlet of the blanking device 2 at the same time, so as to ensure that the bottle caps 5 are placed one by one into each first groove body 34. The distance between the lower end of the blanking device 2 and the transfer disk 31 should be greater than the thickness of one bottle cap 5 and less than the thickness of two bottle caps 5, so as to ensure that only one bottle cap 5 is output by the blanking device 2 at a time, ensuring the normal operation of the capping mechanism 3.

[0030] The limiting rods 44 limit the front and rear positions of the bottle body 6, reducing the risk of the bottle body 6 falling off the conveyor belt 41. The two limiting rods 44 can move back and forth on the support seat 45 and be fixed by the hand screw 46 after adjustment, so that the bottle body 6 and the bottle cap 5 are aligned in the left and right directions by adjusting the positions of the limiting rods 44, ensuring that the bottle cap 5 can be accurately placed on the bottle body 6.

Those skilled in the art of the present invention can make various modifications or supplements to the described specific embodiments or use similar methods for substitution, as long as they do not deviate from the content of this specification of the present invention or exceed the scope defined by this claim book, they should all belong to the protection scope of the present invention.
