Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of medicine bottle transfer, in particular to a transfer device for filling powder into medicine bottles and then capping them. Background Art

[0002] After the production of medicines in a pharmaceutical factory, it is necessary to fill the medicine powder and then cap the bottles. During the capping process, if the capping speed is too fast, it may lead to uneven or incomplete capping, affecting the sealing effect. Therefore, the capping speed cannot be too fast. For the filling of the medicine powder, it only needs to quickly move the filling head to the medicine bottle and fill it according to the set amount to complete. Generally speaking, the filling speed will be slightly faster than the capping speed. If it is an entire production line, if the filling speed is relatively fast, the medicine bottles will accumulate on the production line due to the increasing quantity, and the medicine bottles may be squeezed and fall, causing waste of medicines and disorder of the entire production line, as well as low efficiency of filling and capping.

Opposite ends of the middle turntable are respectively connected with a feeding rail 4 and a discharging double rail 5. The medicine bottles 24 fed on the feeding rail are transferred on the middle turntable and then output on the discharging double rail for capping. The guide ring is arranged above the outer periphery of the middle turntable. The feeding rail and the discharging double rail penetrate through the guide ring and are connected to the middle turntable, dividing the guide ring into two parts. The double-channel feeding mechanism is arranged on one side of the middle turntable close to the guide ring and is communicated with the discharging double rail. The two lower ends of the connecting piece are fixed to the ground, and the top is arranged directly above the middle turntable. One end of the connecting piece is located above the end of the double-channel feeding mechanism close to the feeding rail, and a material guiding mechanism is arranged at the position of the connecting piece corresponding to the end of the double-channel feeding mechanism. The feeding rail is connected to the filling equipment to convey the filled medicine bottles to the middle turntable for transfer, and the discharging double rail is connected to the capping device to output the medicine bottles on the two feeding channels for capping. The connecting piece connects the guide ring and the double-channel feeding mechanism through a connecting rod 25.

[0025] The double-channel feeding mechanism of the utility model includes a first guiding member 6 and a second guiding member 7. Both the first guiding member and the second guiding member are arc-shaped, arranged above the middle turntable and sequentially arranged inside one side of the guide ring from the outside to the inside. Feeding channels 8 are respectively formed between the guide ring and the first guiding member, and between the first guiding member and the second guiding member, and the two feeding channels are respectively communicated with the discharging double rail (that is, the ends of the first guiding member and the second guiding member close to the discharging double rail are connected to the discharging double rail). The other ends of the first guiding member and the second guiding member are close to the feeding rail but do not extend to the feeding rail. The connecting piece connects the first guiding member and the second guiding member downward through a connecting rod 25.

[0026] The rotating mechanism of the utility model includes a motor 9, a transmission rod 10, a transmission disk 11, and four connecting rods 12. The motor is arranged below the middle turntable. The bottom end of the transmission rod is drivingly connected to the motor, and the top end is connected to the transmission disk. A circular hole 13 is provided at the center of the middle turntable, and the transmission disk is arranged at the circular hole. The four connecting rods are evenly arranged on the transmission disk along the circumference, and the four connecting rods are all fixed to the bottom of the middle turntable. During use, the motor rotates to drive the transmission rod to rotate, and then drives the transmission disk to rotate. The rotation of the rotating disk drives the connecting rods and the middle turntable fixed to the connecting rods to rotate. The rotation direction of the middle turntable is such that the incoming medicine bottles can be conveyed to the double-channel feeding mechanism on the middle turntable.

[0027] The material guiding mechanism of the utility model includes a support block 14, a support rod 15, a limiting guide shell 16, and a rotating ring 17, as Figures 7 - 8As shown in the figure, the support block is fixed on the connecting piece and is located above the first guide. The upper end of the support rod is connected to the support block. The limiting guide shell is hollow and fixedly sleeved on the support rod. The rotating ring is rotatably sleeved on the support rod and is located inside the limiting guide shell. The rotating ring is provided with a limiting rod 18 and two guide rods 19. The guide rods are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the limiting rod. The limiting guide shell is provided with an opening 20 along the circumference. The guide rods and the limiting rod extend outwards through the opening.

[0028] Preferably, the position of the first guide of the present invention corresponds to the trajectory of the medicine bottle on the rotating middle turntable after entering the rotating middle turntable from the feeding rail.

[0029] Preferably, when the limiting rod of the present invention is located in the middle of the opening, it is adapted to the track where the first guide is located; and the size of the opening is such that when the rotating ring rotates to any side, when the guide rod on this side rotates to the edge of the opening, the medicine bottle can enter the feeding channel from between the guide rod and the second guide or the guide ring.

[0030] The present invention further includes a guiding arc 21. A connecting ring 22 is provided in a circle corresponding to the circular ring above the middle turntable. The connecting ring is connected to the connecting piece through a fixing member 23. One end of the guiding arc is connected to the connecting ring, and the other end bends and extends to the end position of the second guide near the feeding rail. The setting of the guiding arc can cooperate with the guide to guide the medicine bottle to be introduced into the feeding channel formed by the first guide and the second guide.

[0031] The working principle of the present invention is as follows: Initially, rotate the rotating ring of the feeding mechanism until the guide rod corresponding to the rotating direction rotates to the edge of the corresponding opening, that is, it can no longer rotate in this direction. At this time, the other guide rod is close to the moving track of the medicine bottle entering the middle turntable, as Figure 3 shown. Start the motor to drive the middle turntable to rotate, turn on the filling and capping equipment. The filled medicine bottles enter the middle turntable from the feeding rail. The medicine bottles entering the middle turntable move towards the double-channel feeding mechanism on the middle turntable. When the first medicine bottle touches the guide rod close to it, due to its gravity and the force driven to rotate on the middle turntable, the medicine bottle squeezes the guide rod forward to move. The guide rod is stressed, and the rotating ring rotates, guiding the medicine bottle into the feeding channel where the guide rod rotates and moves until the guide rod rotates and touches the edge of the opening, as Figure 4 shown. The medicine bottle enters the feeding channel where the guide rod rotates and is conveyed towards the double-track discharging direction; at this time, the other guide rod rotates to the position close to the moving track of the medicine bottle entering the middle turntable again, as Figure 5 shown. The next medicine bottle is conveyed and touches the guide rod again, and similarly enters another feeding channel for conveying as Figure 6 shown. In this way, the medicine bottles conveyed to the middle turntable after filling are sequentially guided into the two feeding channels and conveyed out for capping, ensuring the orderly operation of the entire transfer device.
