On the left side of the upper bottle cap front plate 603, an upper bottle cap upper translation module 608 and an upper bottle cap lower translation module 609 are successively installed from top to bottom. On the right side of the upper bottle cap front plate 603 directly above the upper bottle cap screwing gun 606, an upper bottle cap lifting cylinder 607 is installed. The upper bottle cap lifting cylinder 607 drives the upper bottle cap pushing rod 611 to move in the vertical direction. On the right side of the upper bottle cap front plate 603 between the two upper bottle cap lifting cylinders 607, an upper bottle cap diversion channel 610 is installed. At the outer bottom of the upper bottle cap diversion channel 610, an upper bottle cap stop plate 612 is installed. The upper bottle cap upper translation module 608 drives the upper bottle cap diversion channel 610 on the right side to move in the front-back direction. Below the upper bottle cap diversion channel 610, an upper bottle cap docking block 613 is installed. The upper bottle cap lower translation module 609 drives the upper bottle cap docking block 613 on the right side to move in the front-back direction. An upper bottle cap docking channel adapted to the above-mentioned upper bottle cap diversion channel 610 is vertically formed on the upper bottle cap docking block 613.

[0037] Among them, the above-mentioned upper bottle cap screwing gun 606 is a common cap screwing device in the prior art.

[0038] 3. On the right side of the upper bottle cap front plate 603 between the upper bottle cap docking block 613 and the upper bottle cap screwing gun 606, a guiding cavity is installed. On the front and rear sides of the upper bottle cap screwing gun 606 directly below the guiding cavity, clamping blocks are installed, and the clamping blocks move in the front-back direction driven by a clamping jaw cylinder installed on the upper bottle cap base 604.

[0039] 4. Side support plates 615 are installed on both the left and right sides of the upper bottle cap vertical frame 601, and the heights of the two side support plates 615 decrease in sequence. Locking brackets 617 are installed on both side support plates 615. The locking brackets 617 are connected to the upper bottle cap base 604 above. At the middle position of the bottom of the upper bottle cap base 604, a connecting block 618 is installed. A connecting rod 616 installed between the two side support plates 615 passes through the through hole at the bottom of the connecting block 618. At least one of the front and rear sides of the bottom of the upper bottle cap base 604 is locked to the upper bottle cap vertical frame 601 below through a locking handle 614. The locking bracket 617 is connected to the upper bottle cap base 604 above through bolts.

[0040] Brief description of the working principle of the present utility model:

[0041] The cell bottles after welding and airtightness detection are placed on the fixture 2 and carried to the upper bottle cap station on one side under the action of the turntable 1. The pressure plate 7 performs pressure feeding treatment. The hoist 3 lifts the bottle caps into the vibrating bowl 4, and the vibrating bowl 4 supplies the upper bottle cap assembly 6 with bottle caps through the feeding channel 5 to install the bottle caps on the culture bottles.

[0042] The bottle caps in the vibrating bowl 4 enter the upper bottle cap diversion channel 610 through the feeding channel 5, and the bottom leakage prevention treatment is carried out by the upper bottle cap baffle 612. Moreover, the upper bottle cap horizontal translation module 608 can drive the upper bottle cap diversion channel 610 to finely adjust in the front-back direction. Initially, the upper bottle cap docking channel in the upper bottle cap docking block 613 is located directly below the upper bottle cap diversion channel 610. Then, the upper bottle cap vertical translation module 609 drives the upper bottle cap docking block 613 to move forward or backward, so that the upper bottle cap docking block 613 drives the bottle caps in the upper bottle cap docking channel to move into the guide cavity above the corresponding upper bottle cap screwing gun 606 and continue to drop the material between the two clamping blocks below for clamping treatment. When it is necessary to perform the upper bottle cap operation through the upper bottle cap screwing gun 606, the two clamping blocks move outward under the drive of the clamping jaw cylinder, and then the upper bottle cap screwing gun 606 performs the bottle cap assembly work on the cell bottles placed on the fixture 2.
