Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the field of automatic bottle cap pressing and filling equipment, in particular to an automatic bottle cap pressing device for beverage bottles. Background Art
[0002] Traditional honey packaging mostly comes in individual cans or bottles. This packaging method typically requires consumers to pour the honey from the container and mix it with water. However, this method presents numerous inconveniences. During the pouring process, some honey often adheres to the mouth of the container, and sometimes even spills out due to careless handling, staining hands or the outer wall of a drinking glass. This not only wastes honey but also increases the cleaning burden of the container and drinking glass, causing unnecessary trouble for consumers.
[0003] To address this issue with traditional honey packaging, standalone honey bottle caps have emerged. These caps replace the standard bottle cap and tighten securely. Their unique design allows the honey inside to mix easily with water, preventing it from contaminating the container or cup, effectively reducing waste and simplifying cleaning.
[0004] At present, although the production of bottle caps filled with honey has been automated to a certain extent, including the injection of honey and the capping process of the bottle caps, the existing automatic capping equipment usually adopts an alternating setting during operation. That is, after a bottle cap is filled with honey, it needs to be transferred to the capping station for capping operation, and then the empty bottle cap is taken out to be injected with honey. This alternating setting results in a long interval gap during the production process, thereby affecting the overall production efficiency. Although this production method has met market demand to a certain extent, with the continuous increase in consumer demand for honey products and the increasingly fierce market competition, improving production efficiency and shortening production cycle have become problems that need to be solved urgently.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0020] The preferred technical solution of the present utility model is described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0021] Example: Automatic capping device for beverage bottle caps, such as Figure 1-Figure 5 As shown, it includes a base 1, a cylinder 2, a filling mechanism 3 and a top cover conveying mechanism 4. The base 1 is provided with a filling mechanism 3, which is used for quantitatively filling honey and conveying bottle caps, so that filling and conveying can be carried out simultaneously. A slide groove is opened on the front side of the top of the base 1, and the bottle caps are slidably set in the slide groove. The base 1 is installed with a cylinder 2, and the base 1 is provided with a top cover conveying mechanism 4. The top cover conveying mechanism 4 is used to convey the top cover of the bottle cap and fix the top cover to the bottle cap through the cylinder 2.
[0022] like Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, the filling mechanism 3 includes a first bracket 301, a hollow ring frame 302, a spray pipe 303, a second bracket 304, a motor 305, a worm 306, a worm gear 307, a transmission component, a micro pump 308 and a one-way valve 309. The first bracket 301 is connected to the base 1, and the hollow ring frame 302 is rotatably connected to the first bracket 301. The hollow ring frame 302 is connected to a feeding mechanism for conveying honey through a feeding pipe. The feeding mechanism can continuously provide honey to the hollow ring frame 302. Sixteen spray pipes 303 are evenly spaced and connected to the outer circle of the hollow ring frame 302. A one-way valve 309 is set on the spray pipe 303. The one-way valve 309 is located inside the hollow ring frame 302, so that the one-way valve 309 controls the spraying. The honey in the material pipe 303 cannot flow out from the one-way valve 309. For the hollow ring frame 302, the nozzle of the spray pipe 303 faces outward, and a micro pump 308 is installed at the inner end of the spray pipe 303. The micro pump 308 is used to push out the honey in the spray pipe 303. The second bracket 304 is connected to the base 1, and a motor 305 is installed on the second bracket 304. The top of the worm 306 is connected to the output shaft of the motor 305, and the bottom is rotatably connected to the base 1. The central axis of the hollow ring frame 302 passes through the first bracket 301 and is connected to a worm gear 307. The worm gear 307 and the worm 306 are in transmission cooperation. A transmission assembly is provided on the base 1, and the worm 306 is in transmission cooperation with the transmission assembly. The transmission assembly is used to circulate the bottle caps.
[0023] like Figure 2 As shown, the transmission assembly includes a gear 310, a conveyor belt 311, a limit frame 312, a transmission wheel 313 and a limit plate 314. The bottom of the worm 306 is connected to the gear 310, and two transmission wheels 313 are rotatably connected to the base 1. A conveyor belt 311 is sleeved between the two transmission wheels 313. The inner ring of the conveyor belt 311 is engaged with the gear 310, and the outer ring of the conveyor belt 311 is connected to multiple limit plates 314. The limit plates 314 are used to limit the bottle caps. The limit plates 314 are made of rubber and can be bent. The base 1 is connected to the limit frame 312, which is slidably connected to the conveyor belt 311, and the limit frame 312 is squeezed and fitted with the limit plates 314.
[0024] like Figure 4 As shown, the top cover conveying mechanism 4 includes a rotating shaft 401, a notch limiting ring 402, a turntable 403 and a push plate 404. The rotating shaft 401 is rotatably connected to the base 1, the notch limiting ring 402 is fixedly connected to the rotating shaft 401, the turntable 403 is rotatably connected to the rotating shaft 401, the turntable 403 is rotatably connected to the notch limiting ring 402, the notch of the notch limiting ring 402 is located at the bottom of the cylinder 2, and the turntable 403 is connected to the push plate 404, which is squeezed into fit with the bottle cap.
[0025] The staff puts the bottle cap into the chute of the base 1, and the bottle cap is transported by the filling mechanism 3. The honey is filled during the transportation. At the same time, the top cap conveying mechanism 4 transports the top cap. When the bottle cap is at the bottom of the cylinder 2, the cylinder 2 fixes the top cap on the bottle cap to seal the honey, and then the filling mechanism 3 completes the discharge.
[0026] During the filling process, the bottle cap is located directly below the hollow ring frame 302. The external filling equipment can continuously transport honey to the hollow ring frame 302 to ensure that the interior of the hollow ring frame 302 is filled with honey. The motor 305 drives the worm 306 to rotate, and the worm gear 307 cooperates with the worm 306 to drive the hollow ring frame 302 to rotate. When the spray pipe 303 is located above the bottle cap, the micro pump 308 is turned on to fill the bottle cap. Through the transmission assembly, the speed at which the hollow ring frame 302 replaces the spray pipe 303 is coordinated with the speed at which the bottle cap moves. After the spray pipe 303 completes the discharge, the micro pump 308 refills the material through the one-way valve 309 and waits for the next filling.
[0027] After the bottle cap enters the chute of the base 1, the arc-shaped limiting plate 314 presses against the bottle cap, thereby driving the bottle cap to slide along the chute, and the worm 306 drives the conveyor belt 311 to move through the gear 310 at the bottom, and the limiting frame 312 contacts the limiting plate 314, thereby limiting the conveyor belt 311 from separating from the gear 310, and the conveyor belt 311 is engaged with the transmission wheel 313 to ensure the stability of the bottle cap conveying process, and the filling and conveying process is completed by the worm 306, which has a stable characteristic, and the bottle cap itself has a certain width, so when the bottle cap When the bottle cap is about to be located directly below the hollow ring frame 302, the opening of the bottle cap is already directly below the nozzle of the spray pipe 303. Even if the spray pipe 303 starts to discharge honey, the honey can still fall into the bottle cap accurately. At this time, the spray pipe 303 is discharging honey and the honey can still fall into the bottle cap. When the bottle cap moves to directly below the hollow ring frame 302, the filling is completed. After the micro pump 308 is turned off, the remaining honey outside the spray pipe 303 will also drip into the bottle cap, thereby reducing the waiting time. The motor 305 can be continuously turned on to complete the filling process at a uniform speed.
[0028] When the bottle cap is close to the cylinder 2, the bottle cap contacts the push plate 404 and is pushed by the conveyor belt 311 to move the push plate 404, so that the push plate 404 drives the turntable 403 to rotate around the rotating shaft 401. Since the turntable 403 is provided with a top cover placement assembly, the top cover can fall into the groove of the turntable 403 and is restricted from falling by the notch limiting ring 402. As the turntable 403 rotates following the push plate 404, the top cover approaches the top of the bottle cap. When the bottle cap is at the bottom of the cylinder 2, the top cover also falls off from the notch of the notch limiting ring 402. The cylinder 2 pushes the top cover to complete the connection with the bottle cap. When the bottle cap and the top cover are fixed, the bottle cap remains stationary. Since the limit plate 314 is made of rubber, the limit plate 314 moves and deforms. After the connection of the top cover is completed, the limit plate 314 continues to push the bottle cap to discharge.
[0029] like Figure 1 As shown, an electronic scale 5 is also included. The electronic scale 5 is installed on the base 1, and the height of the top surface of the electronic scale 5 is consistent with the height of the bottom of the slide groove of the base 1.
[0030] After the bottle cap is filled, it passes through the electronic scale 5, which weighs the bottle cap to determine the weight of the honey filling. The staff judges whether the bottle cap is qualified based on the filling weight. If the weight displayed by the electronic scale 5 is lower than the qualified range, the staff needs to remove the bottle cap, refill and seal it to ensure the quality of production and reduce the defective rate caused by equipment instability.
[0031] like Figure 5 As shown, it also includes a cleaning mechanism 6, which includes a third bracket 601, a guide bracket 602 and a cleaning block 603. The third bracket 601 is installed on the base 1 and is located below the hollow ring bracket 302. Two guide brackets 602 are connected to the third bracket 601. The inner side of the guide bracket 602 is connected to a cleaning block 603. The cleaning block 603 is used to clean the nozzle of the spray pipe 303.
[0032] After filling, the spray tube 303 contacts the cleaning block 603 on the guide frame 602. The guide frame 602 is in a "Y" shape as a whole, which can ensure that the spray tube 303 stably enters between the guide frames 602, thereby cleaning the residual honey on the spray tube 303 and keeping the equipment clean.
[0033] The staff first places the bottle cap in the chute of the base 1. Then, the motor 305 drives the worm 306, which is transmitted through the worm gear 307 to drive the hollow ring frame 302 and the multiple spraying pipes 303 thereon to rotate. The spraying pipe 303 is equipped with a one-way valve 309 and a micro pump 308, which is used to accurately fill honey when it rotates above the bottle cap. At the same time, the gear 310 at the bottom of the worm 306 drives the conveyor belt 311 to move. The limit plate 314 on the conveyor belt 311 follows and limits the bottle cap from sliding in the chute, ensuring the synchronous cooperation between the bottle cap and the spraying pipe 303. When the spray tube 303 is finished filling, the micro pump 308 refills the bottle through the one-way valve 309 and waits for the next filling. The top cap conveying mechanism 4, through the action of the turntable 403 and the push plate 404, conveys the top cap in a specific direction to the groove on the turntable 403. As the turntable 403 rotates, when the bottle cap is at the bottom of the cylinder 2, the top cap falls through the gap of the gap limiting ring 402 and is pressed and fixed on the bottle cap by the cylinder 2, completing the sealing. During the bottle cap conveying process, the electronic scale 5 weighs the bottle caps passing by to ensure that the honey filling volume meets the qualified standard. In addition, the cleaning block 603 in the cleaning mechanism 6 contacts the spray tube 303 after the spray tube 303 is finished filling, cleans the residual honey, and keeps the equipment clean.
