Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the field of medicine bottle conveying, and particularly relates to a spiral track for conveying medicine bottles. Background Art

[0002] During processes such as printing and inkjet coding of medicine bottles like ampoule bottles, it is generally necessary to lay the vertically conveyed medicine bottles down to a horizontal state, and then use equipment such as a printer to perform inkjet coding and printing on the body of the medicine bottle. When adjusting the state of the existing medicine bottles, it is generally achieved by using a feeding screw in cooperation with a spiral track. Moisture on the surface of the medicine bottle will affect the subsequent printing effect, while the existing spiral conveying track only simply has the function of adjusting the state of gradually laying down the medicine bottle and does not have the ability to air-dry, with a single function. Content of the Utility Model

[0003] In order to solve the deficiencies of the prior art, the utility model aims to provide a spiral track for conveying medicine bottles. This device can not only cooperate with the screw to efficiently convey the medicine bottles, but also quickly air-dry the surface of the medicine bottles, thereby significantly improving the subsequent printing quality of the medicine bottles.

[0004] In order to achieve the above purpose, the technical solution adopted by the utility model is as follows:

[0005] A spiral track for conveying medicine bottles includes a spiral guide plate, and the guide plate is fixedly installed on one side of the end of the feeding screw. It is characterized in that: a spiral surface gradually changing from a vertical state to a horizontal state is provided on the side of the guide plate close to the feeding screw, and a support plate is fixedly provided at the lower edge of the spiral surface; a plurality of air holes are opened above the spiral surface, and the air holes are communicated with an external hot air source.

[0006] Preferably, a convex platform matching the shape of the spiral surface is provided at the upper edge of the spiral surface, and the air holes are opened below the convex platform.

[0007] Preferably, the inside of the guide plate is hollow and provided with an air cavity, and the air holes are communicated with the air cavity; the external hot air source is communicated with the air cavity through an air connection port provided on the guide plate.

[0008] Preferably, the air holes are arranged at equal intervals.

[0009] Preferably, liquid leakage holes are opened on the support plate.

[0010] The beneficial effects of the utility model are as follows:

[0011] 1. When the medicine bottle is conveyed by the utility model, its bottom is supported on the support plate, and the support plate can effectively support the bottom of the medicine bottle. Moreover, liquid leakage holes are opened on the support plate. When a problem of broken bottles occurs at the feeding gap, the liquid medicine in the medicine bottle will flow downward and flow out through the liquid leakage holes, preventing the spilled liquid medicine from accumulating on the spiral surface and wetting the subsequent conveyed medicine bottles.

[0012] 2. A boss is provided on the upper edge of the spiral surface, and an air hole is provided below the boss facing the medicine bottle. An air cavity is provided in the hollow inside of the guide plate, and the air hole is connected to the air cavity. An air inlet is provided below the guide plate, and an external hot air source is connected to the internal air cavity through the air inlet.

[0013] 3. The air holes on the boss are arranged at equal intervals, which can make the air blown out more evenly and improve the air-drying efficiency of the medicine bottles. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0017] The principles and features of the present invention are described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. The examples given are only used to explain the present invention and are not intended to limit the scope of use of the present invention.

[0018] like Figures 1-3 As shown, the utility model proposes a medicine bottle conveying spiral track, including a spiral guide plate 2, which is fixedly mounted on one side of the end of the feeding screw 1, and the guide plate 2 is provided with a spiral surface 20 which gradually turns from vertical to horizontal on the side close to the feeding screw 1, and a feeding gap is provided between the spiral surface 20 and the feeding screw 1. In specific implementation, the feeding screw 1 is driven by a corresponding motor 11, and the feeding screw 1 can be horizontally mounted at the end of the corresponding belt conveyor. Under the rotation of the feeding screw 1, the upright medicine bottle 3 on the belt conveyor enters the feeding gap, and the guiding effect of the spiral surface 20 of the guide plate 2 can gradually turn the medicine bottle 3 from an upright state to a horizontal state, so as to prepare for the subsequent printing of words on the body of the medicine bottle 3.

[0019] A support plate 22 is fixedly provided at the lower edge of the spiral surface 20. The bottom of the medicine bottle 3 is supported on the support plate 22 during transportation, and the support plate 22 can effectively support the bottom of the medicine bottle 3. A leakage hole 220 is provided on the support plate 22. When a bottle is broken at the feeding gap, the medicine liquid in the medicine bottle 3 will flow downward and out through the leakage hole 220, so as to prevent the spilled medicine liquid from gathering on the spiral surface 20 and soaking the medicine bottle 3 to be transported subsequently.

[0020] Above the upper edge of the spiral surface 20, a boss 21 is provided that matches the shape of the spiral surface 20. The air holes 210 are opened downward on the boss 21 facing the medicine bottle 3. And the air holes 210 are arranged at equal intervals, which can make the blown air more uniform and improve the air-drying efficiency of the medicine bottle 3. The inside of the material guide plate 2 is hollow and provided with an air cavity, and the air holes 210 are communicated with the air cavity. A gas connection port 23 is provided below the material guide plate 2, and an external hot air source is communicated with the internal air cavity through the gas connection port 23.

[0021] During specific implementation, an external hot air blower can be connected to the gas connection port 23 through a trachea. The hot air blown by the hot air blower can heat the material guide plate 2 through the air cavity and blow it to the medicine bottle 3 through the upper air holes 210. After the medicine bottle 3 enters the feeding gap, while the heat conducting plate plays a role in guiding the feeding of the medicine bottle 3, it heats the surface of the medicine bottle 3, and cooperates with the air holes 210 to blow hot air to the medicine bottle 3, so as to quickly air-dry the droplets and moisture attached to the surface of the medicine bottle 3, and then significantly improve the printing quality of the subsequent medicine bottle 3 body.

[0022] Obviously, the embodiments described above are only a part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments. The accompanying drawings show the preferred embodiments of the present application, but do not limit the patent scope of the present application. The present application can be implemented in many different forms. On the contrary, the purpose of providing these embodiments is to make the understanding of the disclosed content of the present application more thorough and comprehensive. Although the present application has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, for those skilled in the art, they can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing specific embodiments, or perform equivalent replacements on some of the technical features. Any equivalent structure directly or indirectly using the content of the specification and drawings of the present application in other related technical fields is equally within the scope of the patent protection of the present application.
