Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of trayless carton loading and feeding, in particular to a trayless carton loading and feeding machine. Background Art

[0002] The working principle of the automatic cartoning production line for vials on the market is: first, the tray (also known as plastic tray) is formed, then the vials are loaded into the tray (tray loading action), and finally the tray containing the vials is loaded into the outer packaging carton (cartoning action). The tray is a rectangular box body, which is formed by plastic sheet suction or blow molding. The rectangular box body is provided with two rows, each row of multiple bottle tray cavities, and the two rows of bottle tray cavities are provided with a horizontal middle partition and separated from each other by the horizontal middle partition. The multiple bottle tray cavities in each row are provided with a vertical middle partition and separated from each other by the vertical middle partition. Since each bottle tray cavity in the tray is provided with a middle partition, the center distance between two adjacent bottle tray cavities is greater than the outer diameter of the vial; and the vials delivered by the vial feeding mechanism are delivered in columns. In order to ensure neat arrangement, a partition plate is provided between adjacent columns of vials, but the vials on each column are close to each other front and back, and their center distance is equal to the outer diameter of the vial.

[0003] The steps of tray forming and loading need to be carried out first, which reduces the efficiency of box loading and increases the production cost;

[0004] The bottles are directly sent to the array board for arraying, and then untied by the baffle. Since partitions are set to block the vials during transportation, the distance between the bottles is large after they are directly sent to the array board. The vials cannot be untied in one go by directly pushing the baffle. When the gap is large, the bottles are prone to skew, which reduces the array efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0005] The utility model provides a trayless carton loading machine.

[0006] The utility model provides the following technical solutions:

[0007] Trayless Cartoning Feeding Machine, including a frame body, on which a tape for transporting bottles is installed. Along the transport direction of the tape, a transport channel for arranging bottles in an array is arranged. At the rear of the transport channel, there is a variable pitch mounting base plate. On the variable pitch mounting base plate, variable pitch partition plates with gradually decreasing intervals are installed, which are used to initially reduce the spacing between bottles. At the rear of the variable pitch mounting base plate, there is a bottle aligning mounting base plate. Between the variable pitch mounting base plate and the bottle aligning mounting base plate, there is a liftable insertion baffle. On the bottle aligning mounting base plate, there is a liftable bottle aligning partition plate. On both sides of the bottle aligning mounting base plate, there are clamping plates that can translate towards the middle. At the end of the bottle aligning mounting base plate, there is an end baffle that extends and retracts towards the insertion baffle. Above the bottle aligning mounting base plate, there is a transfer mechanism for transferring bottles to the next process. Before transporting the bottles to the bottle aligning station, initially perform variable pitch to reduce the bottle gap, then use the clamping plates to reduce the gap on both left and right sides of the bottles, and then use the end baffle and the insertion baffle to reduce the front and rear gaps of the bottles, so that the bottles are arranged in a gapless array. Finally, the transfer mechanism transfers the bottles. During the cartoning feeding process, there is no need to use a tray, eliminating steps such as the forming and loading of traditional trays, thereby improving the overall packaging efficiency. The trayless design reduces the use of packaging materials such as trays, thus reducing the material cost. The volume ratio of the trayless gap is more than 20% smaller than that of products on the market, which helps to save transportation costs. And first reduce the gap through the variable pitch partition plates to improve the bottle aligning efficiency.

[0008] As a further improvement of the above solution.

[0009] Preferably, the tape includes a flat mesh belt at the front and a transport belt at the rear. The spacing between the flat mesh belt and the transport belt is smaller than the radius of the bottle, which can smoothly transport the bottles.

[0010] Preferably, on the frame body on both sides of the flat mesh belt, there are baffle plates. The baffle plates are provided with inwardly contracting bosses, through which the bottles are moved towards the middle. At the end of the baffle plates, there are limit blocks, and the size of the limit blocks is adapted to that of the bosses, preventing the bottles from being transported along the two side edges, so that the bottles can be transported into the designated transport channel.

[0011] Preferably, there are multiple transport channels. Each transport channel is formed by multiple partition plates with equal spacing. The partition plates are fixed on a sleeve shaft through sleeves, and the sleeve shaft is fixed on the frame body. Between the middle transport channels, there is a blocking plate. Between the transport channels on both sides and the frame body, there are limit blocks. By setting the blocking plate and the limit blocks, the bottles are blocked from entering the non-transport channel area.

[0012] Preferably, a bottle shaking mechanism for pushing bottles into the transfer channel is installed at the feeding end of the transfer channel. The bottle shaking mechanism includes slide rails installed on both sides. A long bottle shaking push plate is slidably connected to the slide rails. A plurality of push plates are installed on the lower side of the long bottle shaking push plate. One end of the long bottle shaking push plate is driven to reciprocate along the slide rails through a push rod mechanism and a driving motor, thereby driving the plurality of push plates to reciprocate. The bottles blocked by the blocking plate and the limiting block are pushed into the transfer channel by the long bottle shaking push plate and the push plates.

[0013] Preferably, the transfer mechanism includes a guide rail at the top. A sliding seat is installed on the guide rail. A suction fixture head capable of reciprocating vertically is installed on the sliding seat. The sorted bottles are sucked by the suction fixture head and sent to the feeding section of the cartoning machine. The feeding section of the cartoning machine is within the range of the guide rail. Thus, the suction fixture head can adsorb and clamp the arrayed bottles. Subsequently, by moving the sliding seat, the arrayed bottles are conveyed to the feeding section of the cartoning machine.

[0014] Preferably, columns are further installed on both sides of the frame body. A connecting plate is installed on the columns. A cylinder mounting plate and a first cylinder are installed on one side of the connecting plate. A bottle pressing block pressing plate is installed on the output shaft of the first cylinder.

[0015] It should be understood that the above general description and the following detailed description are only exemplary and do not limit the present invention.

[0016] In the present invention, before the bottles are conveyed to the bottle sorting station, preliminary pitch variation is first performed to reduce the gap between the bottles. Subsequently, the gap between the left and right sides of the bottles is reduced by the clamping plates. Then, the front and rear gaps of the bottles are reduced by the end baffle and the insertion baffle, so that the bottles are arrayed into a gapless array. Finally, the transfer mechanism transfers the bottles. During the cartoning and feeding process, a tray is not required, eliminating steps such as the forming and loading of traditional trays. Thereby, the overall packaging efficiency is improved. The trayless design reduces the use of packaging materials such as trays, thus reducing the material cost. The volume ratio of the bottle tray gap is more than 20% smaller than that of products on the market, which helps to save transportation costs. Moreover, the gap is reduced by the pitch variation partition first, improving the bottle sorting efficiency. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0028] Embodiment, refer to Figures 1 - 5 , a magazine loader for buttstockless cartridges, comprising a frame 11, a material belt for transporting bottles is installed on the frame 11. The material belt includes a flat mesh belt 1 at the front, a transmission belt 10 is connected to the rear of the flat mesh belt 1. Baffle plates 2 are installed on both sides of the flat mesh belt 1. An inward convex platform 3 is provided on the inner side of the middle part of the baffle plate 2. The convex platform 3 forms a gradually shrinking necking to prevent the bottles from being transported along the material belt and fitting against the two side edges. A limiting block is installed at the end of the baffle plate 2. A transmission channel extending onto the transmission belt 10 is installed between the limiting blocks. To install subsequent processing mechanisms, there is a gap between the transmission channel and the edge, and there is also a gap between the transmission channels. To prevent the bottles from entering the gap, a limiting block is installed between the transmission channel and the edge to restrict the bottles from entering the gap between the transmission channel and the edge. Every four partition plates 9 are evenly spaced to form a transmission channel. A blocking plate is installed between different transmission channels. To prevent the bottles from entering the gap between the transmission channels, a blocking plate is installed between the transmission channels. The blocking plate and the limiting block are both installed at the feeding end of the transmission channel. A bottle shaking mechanism is installed at the inlet of the transmission channel to push the bottles into the transmission channel. The bottle shaking mechanism includes sliding rails installed on both sides. A long bottle shaking push plate 5 is slidably connected to the sliding rails. A plurality of push plates 6 are installed on the lower side of the long bottle shaking push plate 5. One end of the long bottle shaking push plate 5 is driven to reciprocate along the sliding rails through a push rod mechanism 4 and a driving motor, thereby driving the plurality of push plates 6 to reciprocate. Since the feeding end of the transmission channel is provided with a limiting block and a blocking plate, in order to prevent the bottles from staying at the limiting block and the blocking plate, a bottle shaking mechanism is provided. The bottle shaking mechanism sequentially pushes the bottles staying at the limiting block and the blocking plate into the transmission channel. The specific working process is as follows: The long bottle shaking push plate 5 is driven to reciprocate along the sliding rails through a driving mechanism. The long bottle shaking push plate 5 will drive the lower push plates 6 to move together. The push plates 6 push the bottles blocked by the limiting block and the blocking plate into the transmission channel.

[0029] On both sides of the frame body 11, partition mounting plates 9 are installed. On the partition mounting plates 9, bushing shafts 7 are installed. On the bushing shafts 7, partitions 9 are fixedly installed. A spacer sleeve 8 is sleeved on the bushing shafts 7. The partition 9 is limited by the spacer sleeve 8, and both ends of the spacer sleeve 8 are fixed by bolts. Each transmission channel is formed by a plurality of partitions 9 spaced evenly. The bottom is driven by a belt. The evenly spaced partitions 9 limit the bottles, so that when the bottles are driven by the belt, the bottles can form a continuous array between the partitions 9. In this application, one transmission channel is composed of 5 partitions 9, so as to form a transmission channel with 4 bottles in a row.

[0030] On both sides of the frame body 11, columns are also installed. On the columns, connecting plates 15 are installed. On one side of the connecting plate 15, a cylinder mounting plate and a first cylinder 16 are installed. The output shaft of the first cylinder 16 is installed with a bottle pressing block pressing plate. When it is necessary to temporarily stop transporting the bottles to the rear for pitch change, by driving the output shaft of the first cylinder 16 to output, the bottle pressing block pressing plate presses on the bottles, so that the bottles are temporarily stopped from being transmitted.

[0031] The rear of the belt is connected to a pitch change mounting bottom plate 13. On the pitch change mounting bottom plate 13, a plurality of pitch change partitions 12 are installed. The feeding ends of the plurality of pitch change partitions 12 are equidistant from the partitions 9, and the spacing of the pitch change partitions 12 gradually shrinks, so as to initially reduce the spacing between the bottles.

[0032] At the rear of the pitch change mounting bottom plate 13, a leveling bottle arranging mounting bottom plate 30 is provided. Between the pitch change mounting bottom plate 13 and the bottle arranging mounting bottom plate 30, an insertion baffle 21 capable of moving vertically is provided. The insertion baffle 21 is fixedly connected to the output shaft of the second cylinder 22. The second cylinder 22 can drive the insertion baffle 21 to rise or fall. When the insertion baffle 21 rises, it can block the bottles on the pitch change mounting bottom plate 13 from entering the bottle arranging mounting bottom plate 30. By lowering the insertion baffle 21, the blocking of the bottles on the pitch change mounting bottom plate 13 can be cancelled.

[0033] On the bottle arranging mounting bottom plate 30, a strip-shaped through hole 31 is opened along the extension line of the pitch change partition 12. At the bottom of the bottle arranging mounting bottom plate 30, a bottle arranging partition mounting plate 32 is installed. The bottle arranging partition mounting plate 32 is fixedly connected to the output shaft of the lower third cylinder 23. On the bottle arranging partition mounting plate 32, a bottle arranging partition 24 is installed. The bottle arranging partition 24 passes through the strip-shaped through hole 31. The third cylinder 23 can drive the bottle arranging partition mounting plate 32 to approach or move away from the bottle arranging mounting bottom plate 30. When the bottle arranging partition mounting plate 32 approaches the bottle arranging mounting bottom plate 30, the bottle arranging partition 24 extends out of the strip-shaped through hole 31 to form a barrier to the bottles. When the bottle arranging partition mounting plate 32 moves away from the bottle arranging mounting bottom plate 30, the bottle arranging partition 24 retracts to the lower part of the strip-shaped through hole 31, so as to release the barrier to the bottles.

[0034] A clamping cylinder 27 is also arranged at the bottom of the bottle arranging partition mounting plate 32. The clamping arms 26 of the clamping cylinder 27 penetrate through the bottle arranging partition mounting plate 32 and are fixedly connected with the clamping plates 25. By driving the clamping cylinder 27, the clamping plates 25 on both sides can be driven to move closer to the middle. After the bottle arranging partition 24 retracts to the lower part of the strip-shaped through hole 31, the clamping plates 25 can move closer to the middle, and the gaps between the bottles in the direction of the clamping plates 25 can be removed.

[0035] A fourth cylinder 28 is also arranged at the rear end of the bottle arranging mounting bottom plate 30. An end baffle 29 is installed on the output shaft of the fourth cylinder 28. The end baffle 29 is opposite to the inserting baffle 21. By driving the end baffle 29 to move closer to the inserting baffle 21 through the fourth cylinder 28, the gaps between the bottles in the direction of the inserting baffle 21 and the end baffle 29 can be removed.

[0036] The inserting baffle 21, the clamping plates 25 and the end baffle 29 enclose a rectangle, and the inserting baffle 21, the end baffle 29 and the clamping plates 25 are arranged to avoid each other. By the inserting baffle 21, the clamping plates 25 and the end baffle 29, the gaps between the bottles are eliminated, and the bottles are arrayed into a rectangle.

[0037] A guide rail 17 is also installed on the upper part of the bottle arranging mounting bottom plate 30. A sliding seat 18 is installed on the guide rail 17. A fifth cylinder 19 arranged vertically is installed on the sliding seat 18. The end of the output shaft of the fifth cylinder 19 is installed with a material sucking fixture head 20. The well-arranged bottles are sucked by the material sucking fixture head 20 and sent into the feeding section 14 of the box packing machine. The feeding section 14 of the box packing machine is within the range of the guide rail 17.

[0038] The above is only the specific implementation manner of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any person skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed by the present utility model can easily think of changes or substitutions, which should all be covered within the protection scope of the present utility model; without conflict, the embodiments of the present utility model and the features in the embodiments can be combined with each other. Therefore, the protection scope of the present utility model should be subject to the protection scope of the claims.
