Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of capping machines, in particular to an induction rubber stopper height alarm device for a capping machine. Background Technique

[0002] Capping machines are widely applicable to the aluminum cap sealing process of glass containers in the filling production lines of pharmaceutical factories and scientific research institutions. They are ideal equipment for realizing automated operations. During the capping process, the capping operator first opens the freeze-drying machine cabinet door, and under the protection of unidirectional flow, sends the freeze-dried semi-finished products with full-pressure rubber stoppers onto the bottle inlet track of the capping machine. Then, the bottles are sent to the wave wheel track for capping by the rotation of the bottle arranging disc.

[0003] However, during the use of existing capping machines, if individual rubber stoppers are in an unsealed state, the capping operator cannot visually judge the height of the rubber stoppers. After the bottles enter the wave wheel track, because the rubber stoppers are higher than the normal height, misalignment will occur when the aluminum caps are sleeved onto the bottle mouths, causing the bottles to explode or the equipment to alarm and stop, resulting in the equipment being unable to work properly, reducing the number of bottles transported, and thus affecting the production efficiency of the equipment.

If the product plugging is abnormal, the rubber stopper will block the infrared signal emitted by the infrared generator. At this time, the signal received by the infrared receiver is blocked, and the signal it emits causes the stepping motor to stop running, and at the same time, the alarm lamp on the surface of the frame lights up, thereby realizing the automatic detection of the height of the product rubber stopper. During the capping operation, when the signal of the infrared receiver is in the on state, the stepping motor normally drives the bottle arranging turntable to run continuously, while ensuring the number of bottles transported and reducing the risk of bottle explosion, thus improving the production efficiency of the equipment.

Through the settings of the rotating shaft 12, the knob 13, the first gear 14, the second gear 15, the threaded rod 16, the lifting block 17, the T-shaped block 18, the T-shaped groove 19, the frame 22, the infrared generator 24, the infrared receiver 25 and the alarm lamp 26, when in use, first operate the knob 13 to drive the rotating shaft 12 to rotate. The first gear 14 fixedly connected to the rotating shaft 12 drives the meshed second gear 15 to rotate, converting the longitudinal rotation force of the first gear 14 into the horizontal rotation force of the threaded rod 16. The lifting block 17, through the cooperation of the T-shaped block 18 and the T-shaped groove 19, converts the rotation force of the threaded rod 16 into its own lifting movement, and drives the frame 22 threadedly connected to its surface to move accordingly. The infrared generator 24 is adjusted to the height required for product rubber stopper detection through the frame 22 and the infrared generator 24 is started. When the bottle passes under the frame 22 with the rotation of the bottle arranging turntable 5, the infrared signal transmitted by the infrared generator 24 is received by the infrared receiver 25. If the rubber stopper of the bottle is fully pressed, it will not block the infrared signal, and the infrared receiver 25 remains in the on state, enabling the bottle arranging turntable 5 to continue running. If the product plugging is abnormal, the rubber stopper will block the infrared signal emitted by the infrared generator 24. At this time, the signal received by the infrared receiver 25 is blocked, and the signal it emits causes the stepping motor 7 to stop running, and at the same time, the alarm lamp 26 on the surface of the frame 22 lights up. In this way, the automatic detection of the height of the product rubber stopper is realized, the number of bottles transported is guaranteed, the risk of bottle explosion is reduced, and the production efficiency of the equipment is improved.

[0021] Further, two sets of bottle passing grooves 2 are provided on the surface of the outer ring 1, and the inner wall dimensions of the two sets of bottle passing grooves 2 match the inner wall dimensions of the turntable groove 6. Through the setting of the bottle passing grooves 2, the two sets of bottle passing grooves 2 have the same dimensions as the turntable groove 6. Bottles are conveyed from the bottle passing grooves 2 into the turntable groove 6 and then output through the other set of bottle passing grooves 2, making the equipment more stable when conveying glass containers.

[0022] Further, positioning grooves 3 are provided on the surfaces of both the outer ring 1 and the fixed disk 8, and the inner wall dimensions of the positioning grooves 3 match the outer wall dimensions of the mounting plate 9. Through the setting of the positioning grooves 3 and the mounting plate 9, both the outer ring 1 and the fixed disk 8 are fixedly connected to the capping machine. When installing the column 10, the mounting plate 9 can be directly aligned and placed into the positioning groove 3, making the installation of the column 10 more convenient.

[0023] Further, multiple sets of turntable grooves 6 are provided on the surface of the bottle arranging turntable 5. The bottle arranging turntable 5 and the stepping motor 7 cooperate with each other to form a rotating structure. Through the setting of the bottle arranging turntable 5, the turntable grooves 6, and the stepping motor 7, during use, after the bottles are conveyed from the bottle passing grooves 2 into the turntable grooves 6, the intermittent rotation of the stepping motor 7 drives the multiple sets of turntable grooves 6 to perform circular motion, enabling the next set of turntable grooves 6 to continue to accommodate the bottles conveyed by the bottle passing grooves 2, thereby improving the production efficiency of the equipment.

[0024] Further, two sets of columns 10 are provided, and both sets of columns 10 are threadedly connected to the positioning grooves 3 through the mounting plates 9. Through the setting of the positioning grooves 3, the mounting plates 9, and the columns 10, the two sets of columns 10 are fixed in the positioning grooves 3 by bolts, making the columns 10 more stable during use and facilitating the installation of the frame 22 without any position deviation.

[0025] Further, the threaded rod 16 forms a rotating structure with the rotating shaft 12 through the cooperation of the second gear 15 and the first gear 14, and the lifting block 17 forms a lifting structure with the column 10 through the threaded rod 16. Through the setting of the rotating shaft 12, the first gear 14, the second gear 15, and the threaded rod 16, during use, the first gear 14 drives the second gear 15 to rotate, transmitting the rotational force of the rotating shaft 12 to the threaded rod 16, enabling the capping operator to adjust the height of the lifting block 17 by turning the knob 13.

[0026] Further, a T-shaped block 18 is fixedly connected to one side surface of the lifting block 17, and a T-shaped groove 19 is provided on the inner side surface of the column 10, and the inner wall dimensions of the T-shaped groove 19 match the outer wall dimensions of the T-shaped block 18. Through the setting of the T-shaped block 18 and the T-shaped groove 19, during use, the T-shaped block 18 slides inside the T-shaped groove 19, making the movement of the lifting block 17 more stable and improving the accuracy of the height detection of the rubber stopper at the same time.

[0027] Further, through holes 23 are formed on the surface of the frame 22, and the frame 22 is threadedly connected to the lifting block 17 through the through holes 23. The infrared generator 24 and the infrared receiver 25 are symmetrically arranged with respect to the central axis of the frame 22. With the arrangement of the infrared generator 24 and the infrared receiver 25, during use, when the signal of the infrared receiver 25 is in the on state, the stepping motor 7 normally drives the bottle arranging turntable 5 to continuously operate, ensuring the number of bottles transported, maintaining the continuity of the capping production process, and thus improving the production efficiency of the equipment.

[0028] Working principle: When the equipment needs to be used, first, the two sets of columns 10 are respectively aligned and placed into the two sets of positioning grooves 3 through the mounting plates 9. The outer ring 1 and the fixed disk 8 are both fixedly connected to the capping machine. Then, the mounting plate 9 and the positioning groove 3 are bolted together. At this time, the frame 22 is installed using bolts corresponding to the threaded holes on the lifting block 17 through the through holes 23 formed thereon. Then, the knob 13 is operated to drive the rotating shaft 12 to rotate. The first gear 14 fixedly connected to the rotating shaft 12 drives the second gear 15 meshing with it to rotate, converting the longitudinal rotational force of the first gear 14 into the horizontal rotational force of the threaded rod 16. The lifting block 17, through the cooperation of the T-shaped block 18 and the T-shaped groove 19, converts the rotational force of the threaded rod 16 into its own lifting motion and drives the frame 22 threadedly connected to its surface to move accordingly. The infrared generator 24 is adjusted to the height required for product rubber stopper detection through the frame 22 and the infrared generator 24 is started. Then, the freeze-dried semi-finished products with fully pressed rubber stoppers are sent onto the bottle inlet track of the capping machine. The bottles are transported to the turntable grooves 6 on the surface of the bottle arranging turntable 5 through the bottle passing groove 2. At this time, the stepping motor 7 is started. The intermittent rotation of the stepping motor 7 drives the bottle arranging turntable 5 to rotate, causing multiple sets of turntable grooves 6 to perform circular motion. The next set of turntable grooves 6 continues to accommodate the bottles transported by the bottle passing groove 2. When the bottles pass below the frame 22 with the rotation of the bottle arranging turntable 5, the infrared signal transmitted by the infrared generator 24 is received by the infrared receiver 25. If the rubber stopper of the bottle is a fully pressed stopper, it will not block the infrared signal, and the infrared receiver 25 remains in the on state, enabling the bottle arranging turntable 5 to continue operating; if the product stopper pressing is abnormal, the rubber stopper will block the infrared signal emitted by the infrared generator 24. At this time, the signal received by the infrared receiver 25 is blocked, and it emits a signal to stop the stepping motor 7. At the same time, the alarm lamp 26 on the surface of the frame 22 lights up, thus realizing the automatic detection of the height of the product rubber stopper. During capping operation, when the signal of the infrared receiver 25 is in the on state, the stepping motor 7 normally drives the bottle arranging turntable 5 to continuously operate, ensuring the number of bottles transported, maintaining the continuity of the capping production process, and at the same time reducing the risk of bottle explosion, thereby improving the production efficiency of the equipment. The model of the infrared receiver 25 is HL500B.

[0029] Although embodiments of the present utility model have been shown and described, those of ordinary skill in the art can understand that various changes, modifications, substitutions, and variations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present utility model. The scope of the present utility model is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
