DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS

[0021] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without making creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.

[0022] Please refer to Figures 1-4 , the present invention provides a technical solution for a bottle cap conveying mechanism applied to a capping machine:

[0023] A bottle cap conveying mechanism applied to a capping machine, including a frame 1. Two rotatable rollers 2 are installed at intervals inside the frame 1. A belt 3 is installed between the two rollers 2. A first motor 4 is fixedly installed on the frame 1. The output shaft of the first motor 4 is fixedly connected to one of the rollers 2. A plurality of equally spaced limiting sleeves 5 are fixedly installed on the belt 3. The limiting sleeves 5 are made of rubber. A storage groove 6 is arranged at the upper end of the belt 3. The storage groove 6 is fixedly installed on the frame 1. A guide pipe 7 is communicated and fixedly installed at the bottom of the storage groove 6. A disc 8 is arranged between the guide pipe 7 and the belt 3. Two spaced openings 9 are formed in the disc 8. The openings 9 penetrate through the disc 8. A second motor 10 is fixedly installed on the frame 1. A drive shaft 11 is rotatably installed on the frame 1. The drive shaft 11 is fixedly connected to the output shaft of the second motor 10. The lower end of the drive shaft 11 is fixedly connected to the center position of the disc 8. A supporting mechanism is arranged inside the belt 3. The supporting mechanism is installed on the frame 1 and can support the belt 3. A plurality of equally spaced threaded mounting holes are formed in the frame 1. Anti-slip patterns are arranged on the surface of the roller 2. When the opening 9 rotates to the position of the guide pipe 7, the bottle caps in the guide pipe 7 fall into the limiting sleeve 5 through the opening 9. The first motor 4 drives the roller 2 to rotate. The two rollers 2 on both sides rotate and drive the belt 3 to operate, intermittently driving the limiting sleeve 5 to move to the position of the opening 9. Thus, the opening 9 intermittently discharges the bottle caps and falls into the limiting sleeve 5. The storage function of the device allows temporarily storing the excess bottle caps when the supply of bottle caps is temporarily excessive, without affecting the continuous operation of the capping machine.

[0024] Among them, the supporting mechanism includes a support plate 12. The support plate 12 is located inside the belt 3. Support frames 13 are fixedly installed on both sides of the support plate 12. The support frames 13 are fixedly connected to the frame 1. The upper part of the belt 3 is supported by the support plate 12 to prevent the belt 3 from sagging.

[0025] Among them, a guiding mechanism is arranged at one end of the belt 3. The guiding mechanism is installed on the frame 1 and is used for guiding and conveying materials. The guiding mechanism includes a chute 14. The chute 14 is located at one end of the belt 3. The chute 14 is inclined downward and fixedly connected to the frame 1. Side plates 15 are fixedly installed on both sides of the chute 14. A plurality of equally spaced connecting shafts 16 are rotatably installed on the side plates 15. Rotating wheels 17 are fixedly installed on the connecting shafts 16. The bottle caps move to one end along with the belt 3 and fall. The bottle caps fall into the chute 14 and slide downward. The bottle caps contact the rotating wheels 17 on the side, and the rotating wheels 17 rotate, which can prevent the bottle caps from being stuck during the movement process.

[0026] The working principle of the utility model is as follows: The frame 1 is installed on the capping machine. The storage groove 6 is located at the material output end of the capping machine. The bottle caps fall into the storage groove 6 and are introduced to the disc 8 through the guide pipe 7. The lower port of the guide pipe 7 is blocked by the disc 8. The second motor 10 intermittently drives the drive shaft 11 to rotate, and the disc 8 can rotate around the drive shaft 11. When the through-hole 9 rotates to the position of the guide pipe 7, the bottle caps in the guide pipe 7 fall into the limit sleeve 5 through the through-hole 9. The first motor 4 drives the roller 2 to rotate, and the two side rollers 2 rotate to drive the belt 3 to operate, intermittently driving the limit sleeve 5 to move to the position of the through-hole 9. Thus, the through-hole 9 intermittently discharges the bottle caps and they fall into the limit sleeve 5. The storage function of the device allows temporarily storing the excess bottle caps when the supply of bottle caps is temporarily in surplus, without affecting the continuous operation of the capping machine. In this way, the production line can maintain a stable running speed and will not be interrupted due to short-term fluctuations in the supply of bottle caps. It avoids the downtime caused by blockage, reduces the waiting and waste in the production process, and thus improves the overall production efficiency. The bottle caps move to one end along with the belt 3 and fall. The bottle caps fall into the chute 14 and slide down. The bottle caps contact the rotating wheel 17 on the side, and the rotating wheel 17 rotates, which can prevent the bottle caps from being stuck during the movement.

[0027] The above is only the preferred embodiment of the present utility model. It should be noted that for those of ordinary skill in the art of this technology, without departing from the principle of the present utility model, several improvements and refinements can be made, and these improvements and refinements should also be regarded as the protection scope of the present utility model. The structures, devices, and operation methods not specifically described and explained in the present utility model, without special instructions and limitations, are implemented according to the conventional means in the art.
