Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of bottle unscrambling equipment, in particular to a mixed production bottle detection and unscrambling device. Background Art

[0002] Glass bottles need to be inspected during production. Before inspection, the bottles are usually arranged neatly and regularly at one end of the inspection line. In the actual production process, bottles of various specifications are often inspected, so multi-row bottle unscrambling is required. Patent document with application number CN202322677115.1 discloses a packaging bottle unscrambling machine that arranges bottles into multiple rows of single-channel continuous arrangement through a wide mesh channel. Through a movable dial plate and multiple rows of fixed single-row tracks, the movable dial plate is equipped with bearings, which effectively avoids the phenomenon of bottle bridging causing bottle entry jams during lateral swing. However, this patent cannot obtain the number of bottles in different arrangements in real time, and cannot sequentially discharge bottles in different arrangements, which is prone to chaotic bottle discharge. Moreover, when the number of bottles on the bottle unscrambling line reaches a certain number, they are prone to accumulation, affecting the transportation efficiency of the bottle unscrambling line. Utility Model Content

[0003] In order to solve the technical problems in the above background technology that products of multiple specifications cannot be simultaneously satisfied, bottle discharging chaos and bottle accumulation are prone to occur, the utility model provides a mixed production bottle detection and bottle sorting device.

[0004] The technical solution of this utility model is as follows:

[0005] A mixed-production bottle detection and sorting device comprises a conveyor belt and a fixed frame above it, with a conveyor unit and a bottle discharge unit positioned sequentially on the frame. The conveyor unit comprises a plurality of parallel transport channels, flanked by vertical partitions with adjustable spacing. A full-bottle indicator is provided on the partition on at least one side of the transport channel, and a bottle clamping mechanism is provided at one end of the transport channel near the bottle discharge unit. The bottle discharge unit comprises a bottle discharge track connected to one end of the conveyor unit.

[0006] Various mixed-production bottles are arranged in different transport channels. By adjusting the spacing between the partitions on both sides of the transport channel, it can be adapted to bottles of different specifications. The full-bottle prompt mechanism can obtain the number of bottles in the transport channel in real time and judge whether it has reached the full-bottle state. The bottle clamping mechanism at one end of the transport channel can clamp the bottles and limit the bottle discharge speed. The bottle discharge track can guide the bottles passing through the transport channel and improve the accuracy of their path when entering the inspection line.

[0007] Specifically, the bottle clamping mechanism includes airbag groups arranged on both sides of the transport channel, and the spacing between the two airbag groups is adjustable. The airbag groups are used to clamp the bottle body, which can avoid wear on the bottle body and facilitate operation. By adjusting the spacing of the airbag groups, it can adapt to bottles of different sizes.

[0008] Furthermore, the fixing frame is also provided with an adjusting part that can synchronously adjust the distance between the two partitions and the two airbag groups. Synchronous adjustment of the airbag groups and partitions on the same transport channel can not only ensure that both are adapted to bottles of the same specification, but also improve work efficiency and avoid repeated adjustment operations.

[0009] Preferably, the spacing between the partitions on both sides of the transport channels is set to be independently adjustable to ensure that the transport channels do not interfere with each other. When all adjustments are not required, only one transport channel can be adjusted separately.

[0010] As a preferred embodiment, the bottle clamping mechanism further includes a detection device capable of detecting the arrival position of the bottle, and the vertical height of the detection device is adjustable. The detection device detects whether the bottle reaches the position of the bottle clamping mechanism, and then controls the bottle clamping mechanism to clamp the bottle to limit the movement of the bottle. At the same time, by adjusting the height of the detection device, it can meet the detection requirements of bottles of different heights.

[0011] Further preferably, a through hole is provided on the partition on at least one side of the transport channel, and the full bottle prompt mechanism includes a clamping member passing through the through hole and capable of being pressed by the bottle body, and the full bottle prompt mechanism also includes a proximity switch capable of cooperating with the clamping member, when the bottle body and the side of the clamping member passing through the through hole are pressed, the side of the clamping member away from the through hole can approach the proximity switch, and at this time the proximity switch obtains information.

[0012] As a preferred embodiment, baffles are provided on both sides of the bottle discharge track along the conveying direction of the conveyor belt, and the two baffles are symmetrically arranged along the center line of the conveying direction of the conveyor belt to prevent the bottles in the bottle discharge track from accidentally falling and ensure that the bottles can move in the same direction.

[0013] Furthermore, the distance between the two baffles is set to gradually decrease along the bottle transportation direction. The distance between the two baffles at one end close to the conveying unit is large, ensuring that the bottles in several transportation channels can all enter the bottle discharge track, and the distance between the two baffles at one end away from the conveying unit gradually decreases, in order to ensure that only one bottle is transported out of one end of the bottle discharge track, ensuring that several bottles can be inspected in a certain order, and avoiding the situation where multiple bottles enter at one time.

[0014] Through the above design, the beneficial effects of the mixed production bottle detection and bottle unscrambling device of the utility model are:

[0015] 1) Arrange bottles of various specifications in different transport channels. By adjusting the spacing between the partitions on both sides of the transport channel, it can adapt to bottles of different specifications and meet the bottle sorting operations of various mixed production bottles at the same time.

[0016] 2) By setting up a full bottle prompt mechanism, the number of bottles in different arrangements can be obtained in real time, and whether the transport channel has reached a full bottle state can be detected. By setting up a bottle clamping mechanism, the bottles in different arrangements can be discharged in sequence.

[0017] 3) Through the cooperation of the conveying unit and the bottle discharging unit, the disorder of bottle discharging and bottle accumulation can be avoided, and the efficiency of bottle sorting of mixed production bottles can be improved. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0024] Exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure will be described in more detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0025] Example

[0026] Combine Figures 1 to 3 This embodiment provides a mixed-production bottle detection and bottle sorting device, including a conveyor belt and a fixed frame 3 above it, on which a conveying unit 1 and a bottle discharging unit 2 are sequentially arranged.

[0027] In this embodiment, the conveying unit 1 includes a plurality of transport channels arranged in parallel. Vertical partitions 11 are provided on both sides of the transport channels, and the distance between the two partitions 11 is adjustable.

[0028] Preferably, the spacing between the partitions 11 on both sides of the transport channels is set to be independently adjustable to ensure that the transport channels do not interfere with each other. When all adjustments are not required, only one transport channel can be adjusted separately.

[0029] In this embodiment, a full bottle prompt mechanism 12 is provided on the partition 11 on at least one side of the transport channel.

[0030] Further preferably, a through hole is provided on the partition 11 on at least one side of the transport channel, and the full bottle prompt mechanism 12 includes a tightening member 121 passing through the through hole and capable of being pressed by the bottle body, and the full bottle prompt mechanism also includes a proximity switch capable of cooperating with the tightening member 121. When the bottle body presses against the side of the tightening member 121 passing through the through hole, the side of the tightening member 121 away from the through hole can approach the proximity switch, and at this time the proximity switch obtains information.

[0031] A bottle clamping mechanism 13 is provided at one end of the transport channel close to the bottle discharging unit 2 .

[0032] Specifically, the bottle clamping mechanism 13 includes airbag groups 131 located on either side of the transport channel. The spacing between the two airbag groups 131 is adjustable. Clamping the bottles with the airbag groups 131 prevents wear and tear on the bottles and facilitates operation. Adjusting the spacing of the airbag groups 131 allows them to accommodate bottles of varying sizes. The airbag groups 131 include a vertically arranged connecting plate with a plurality of airbags arranged in a vertical array on the side facing the transport channel.

[0033] The bottle clamping mechanism 13 further includes a gas storage cylinder capable of inflating or deflating the airbag group 131 , and the gas storage cylinder is connected to the airbag group 131 via a gas injection pipe.

[0034] Furthermore, the fixing frame 3 is also provided with an adjusting member 31 capable of synchronously adjusting the distance between the two partitions 11 and the two air bag groups 131. The synchronous adjustment of the air bag group 131 and the partition 11 on the same transport channel can not only ensure that the two are adapted to the same specification of bottles, but also improve work efficiency and avoid repeated adjustment operations.

[0035] Specifically, the adjusting member 31 includes a transverse screw 311 arranged perpendicular to the conveying direction of the conveyor belt. The screw 311 passes through the two partitions 11 in sequence at one end close to the bottle clamping mechanism 13. The adjusting member 31 also includes a connecting member 312 that is sleeved on the outer ring of the screw 311 and is transmission-connected to the screw 311. There are at least two connecting members 312, which are respectively fixedly connected to the two airbag groups 131. The two connecting members 312 are configured to be able to move toward or in opposite directions at the same time.

[0036] The adjusting member 31 further includes a linkage screw passing through the end of the partition 11 away from the bottle clamping mechanism 13. The linkage screw and the screw 311 are connected to each other through a synchronous belt 313. The linkage screw and the screw 311 are respectively connected to the two ends of the partition 11, ensuring that when the screw 311 is rotated, the two ends of the partition 11 can move toward or in opposite directions synchronously, thereby improving the accuracy of the spacing adjustment.

[0037] As a preferred embodiment, the bottle clamping mechanism 13 also includes a detection device 132 capable of detecting the arrival position of the bottle body, and its vertical height is adjustable. The detection device 132 detects whether the bottle body reaches the position of the bottle clamping mechanism 13, and then controls the bottle clamping mechanism 13 to clamp the bottle body to limit the movement of the bottle body. At the same time, by adjusting the height of the detection device 132, it can meet the detection requirements of bottles of different heights.

[0038] The detection device 132 includes photoelectric sensors arranged on both sides of the transport channel and adjacent to the airbag group 131. By adjusting the height of the detection device 132, the height of the photoelectric sensor is ensured to be consistent with the bottle mouth. When the bottle mouth passes the photoelectric sensor, it can be prompted that the bottle body has arrived. At this time, the airbag group 131 is inflated in time to clamp the bottle body.

[0039] In this embodiment, the bottle discharging unit 2 includes a bottle discharging track connected to one end of the conveying unit 1 .

[0040] As a preferred embodiment, baffles 21 are provided on both sides of the bottle discharge track along the conveying direction of the conveyor belt, and the two baffles 21 are symmetrically arranged along the center line of the conveying direction of the conveyor belt to prevent the bottles in the bottle discharge track from accidentally falling and ensure that the bottles can move in the same direction.

[0041] Furthermore, the distance between the two baffles 21 is set to gradually decrease along the bottle transportation direction. The distance between the two baffles 21 at one end close to the conveying unit 1 is large, and it is ensured that the bottles in several transportation channels can enter the bottle discharge track. The distance between the two baffles 21 at one end away from the conveying unit 1 gradually decreases. This is to ensure that only one bottle is transported out of one end of the bottle discharge track, and to ensure that several bottles can be inspected in a certain order to avoid the situation where multiple bottles enter at one time.

[0042] When sorting mixed bottles, the various mixed bottles are arranged in different transport channels. By adjusting the spacing between the partitions 11 on both sides of the transport channel, it can be adapted to accommodate bottles of different specifications. Under the action of the conveyor belt, the bottles in the transport channel successively contact the abutting members 121 of the full bottle indication mechanism 12 and then leave. At this time, the proximity switch records the number of bottles passing through the transport channel. When the number of bottles in the transport channel has reached the limit or there is a pile up, the bottles continue to contact the abutting members 121 and do not leave. At this time, the proximity switch will receive a continuous signal. When the bottles pass through the bottle clamping mechanism 13, the bottle clamping mechanism 13 will clamp the bottles, limiting the bottle discharge speed. The bottle clamping time can be adjusted according to the required bottle discharge speed. If the full bottle indication mechanism 12 in a certain transport channel continuously displays an uninterrupted signal, it means that the number of bottles in the transport channel is full. At this time, the bottle clamping mechanism 13 can be operated to release the bottles in the transport channel to relieve transportation pressure. Afterwards, the bottle clamping mechanism 13 can be operated in a certain order to sequentially release or restrict the bottles in different transport channels, thereby limiting the bottle discharge speed of different transport channels. The bottle discharge track can guide the bottles passing through the transport channels, improving the accuracy of their path when entering the inspection line.

[0043] This utility model can accommodate bottles of varying sizes by adjusting the spacing between the partitions 11 on either side of the transport channel, enabling simultaneous bottle unscrambling of a variety of mixed production bottles. The full-bottle indicator 12 provides real-time information on the number of bottles in different arrangements and detects whether the transport channel is full. The bottle clamping mechanism 13 allows bottles in different arrangements to be discharged sequentially. The coordination between the conveyor unit 1 and the bottle discharge unit 2 prevents chaotic discharge and bottle accumulation, improving the efficiency of bottle unscrambling for mixed production bottles.
