Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of lid arranging, in particular to a flat lid arranger. Background Art

[0002] A lid arranger is a commonly used device in the fields of beverage filling and pharmaceutical production. During production, the bottle caps are placed in a turntable and move with the turntable. Under the action of centrifugal force, the bottle caps fall into the cap grooves of the turntable. The bottle caps in the cap grooves move in a circular motion with the turntable and are sequentially sent to the next process. The lid arranger arranges the messy bottle caps and then sends them into the production line so that the production line can install the bottle caps on the bottles.

[0003] The traditional lid arranger removes the reverse caps by blowing air, and it needs to wait until all the bottle caps on the cap conveying channel are right-side-up before continuing to run, which reduces the lid arranging efficiency. Now, for a type of bottle cap with slight differences in upper and lower dimensions, a flat lid arranger is proposed. Summary of the Utility Model

[0004] According to the above technical problems to be solved, a flat lid arranger is provided.

[0005] To achieve the above object, the utility model discloses a flat lid arranger, which includes a lid arranging cylinder body. A turntable is installed inside the lid arranging cylinder body. The bottom of the turntable passes through the lid arranging cylinder body and is connected with a driving module. Installation brackets fixed to the bottom of the lid arranging cylinder body are arranged around the driving module. An outlet for the caps is opened on the side of the lid arranging cylinder body. The outlet for the caps is connected with a lid conveying channel. A wrapping plate is installed at the top of the lid conveying channel close to the outlet for the caps. A cap removing mechanism is arranged in the middle section of the lid conveying channel. A return pipe connected with the lid arranging cylinder body is arranged at the bottom of the cap removing mechanism.

[0006] Furthermore, a horizontal cross bar is installed at the top of the lid arranging cylinder body. At least two groups of baffle mechanisms that are centrosymmetric about the rotation axis of the turntable are arranged on the side of the cross bar.

[0007] Furthermore, the baffle mechanism includes a first bracket fixed to the side of the cross bar. A second bracket is movably connected to the first bracket. A sliding rod is movably installed on the second bracket. A scraping plate is connected to the end of the sliding rod.

[0008] Furthermore, a photoelectric detection switch is installed on the inner side edge of the lid arranging cylinder body directly above the outlet for the caps.

[0009] Furthermore, the cap removing mechanism includes a support section connected with the lid conveying channel. A side baffle is arranged on one side of the support section close to the lid arranging cylinder body. A first stop bar located at the center of the lid conveying channel is arranged above the support section. A second stop bar is arranged on the side of the cap removing mechanism away from the support section.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS

[0019] The following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present utility model with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present utility model, rather than all of the embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of the present utility model without making creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0020] An embodiment of the present utility model is as shown in Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown in the figure, a turntable 2 is installed inside the lid sorting cylinder 1. The bottom of the turntable 2 passes through the lid sorting cylinder 1 and is connected to a driving module 3. An installation bracket 4 fixed to the bottom of the lid sorting cylinder 1 is arranged around the driving module 3. An outlet opening 13 is provided on the side of the lid sorting cylinder 1. The outlet opening 13 is connected to a lid sorting channel 5. A wrapping plate 51 is installed at the top of the lid sorting channel 5 near the outlet opening 13. A lid rejecting mechanism 7 is arranged in the middle section of the lid sorting channel 5. A return pipe 6 connected to the lid sorting cylinder 1 is arranged at the bottom of the lid rejecting mechanism 7. The structure is simple. It is not necessary to distinguish between the front and reverse lids in the lid sorting channel. The rejection of the reverse lids is realized by setting the width of the support section in the lid rejecting mechanism, which improves the lid sorting efficiency.

[0021] A horizontal cross bar 11 is installed at the top of the lid sorting cylinder 1. At least two groups of baffle mechanisms 12 that are centrosymmetric about the rotation axis of the turntable 2 are arranged on the side of the cross bar 11. The baffle mechanism 12 includes a first bracket 121 fixed to the side of the cross bar 11. A second bracket 122 is movably connected to the first bracket 121. A sliding rod 123 is movably installed on the second bracket 122. A scraping plate 124 is connected to the end of the sliding rod 123. The second bracket is used to adjust the angle of the scraping plate, and the sliding rod is used to adjust the height of the scraping plate to control the height of the bottle caps in the lid sorting cylinder and prevent the bottle caps from stacking and blocking the outlet opening.

[0022] An optoelectronic detection switch 8 is installed on the inner edge of the lid sorting cylinder 1 directly above the outlet opening 13 to control the number of lids discharged.

[0023] The lid rejecting mechanism 7 includes a support section 71 connected to the lid sorting channel 5. A side baffle is arranged on the side of the support section 71 close to the lid sorting cylinder 1. A first stop bar 72 located at the center of the lid sorting channel 5 is arranged above the support section 71. A second stop bar 73 is arranged on the side of the lid rejecting mechanism 7 away from the support section 71. The two ends of the first stop bar 72 and the second stop bar 73 are respectively installed on the lid sorting channel 5 on both sides of the lid rejecting mechanism 7 through adjusting blocks. The front lids pass through normally due to the acting force between the second stop bar and the side baffle, while the reverse lids fall into the lower return pipe for rejection due to the smaller width of the support section.

[0024] The width of the support section 71 is smaller than the width of the lid sorting channel 5. The screening of the front and reverse lids is realized through the width change between the support section and the lid sorting channel. A buffer section 74 that bends downward is arranged on the lid sorting channel 5 on the side of the lid rejecting mechanism 7 away from the outlet opening 13.

[0025] An inverted trapezoidal inlet is arranged on the side of the return pipe 6 close to the lid rejecting mechanism 7. The rejected reverse lids enter the return pipe through the inlet. The side of the return pipe 6 is fixed to the lid sorting cylinder 1 through at least two groups of brackets. The end of the return pipe is connected to the top edge of the lid sorting cylinder to enable the recycling of the bottle caps. A blowing pipe 61 is connected to the bending section of the return pipe 6. By blowing air from the outside into the return pipe, the reverse lids inside are made to re-enter the lid sorting cylinder.

[0026] Working principle of this embodiment: The motor in the driving module rotates to drive the turntable in the cap aligner to rotate. The number of caps in the cap aligner is controlled by photoelectric detection to ensure the cap output quantity. The caps, regardless of their orientation, are thrown to the wrapping plate of the cap aligner by centrifugal force. Due to the slight deviation in the upper and lower dimensions of the caps, the reverse caps are removed. The reverse caps return to the cap aligner through the return pipe, and the correct caps pass through normally.
