The conveyor unit 1 is mounted on the frame 3, and the bottle separator 2 is mounted below the conveyor unit 1. The bottle separator end of the bottle separator 2 can alternately enter the conveyor unit 1 and move the bottles 4, so that the bottles 4 are grouped into two groups, with a certain distance between the bottles 4 in each group. The conveyor unit 1 is used to transport bottles 4 of different specifications, and the bottle separator 2 is used to group the bottles 4 into groups of 1 to 5. In this embodiment, each group contains two bottles 4, and the bottles 4 in each group are kept at a certain distance.

[0036] like Figure 3As shown, the conveying unit 1 includes a baffle adjustment assembly 11, a lane adjustment assembly 12, a transport assembly 13, and a detection assembly 14. The lane adjustment assembly 12 is mounted at the bottom of the frame 3, and the six conveyor belts of the transport assembly 13 are all mounted on the lane adjustment assembly 12. The baffle adjustment assembly 11 is mounted at the top of the frame 3 and is provided with six channels, within which the six conveyor belts of the transport assembly 13 are respectively mounted. The detection assembly 14 is mounted on the frame 3, located above the six conveyor belts of the transport assembly 13 and at the feed end of the six conveyor belts of the transport assembly 13. The bottle separation unit 2 is located in the middle of the six conveyor belts of the transport assembly 13. The bottle separation end of the bottle separation unit 2 (i.e., the bottle separation finger 213b) alternately enters between the six conveyor belts of the transport assembly 13 and the baffle 115 of the baffle adjustment assembly 11 at regular intervals, that is, the bottle separation finger 213b is located on both sides of the transport assembly 13.

[0037] The baffle adjustment assembly 11 is used to adjust the left and right positions of the baffles 115 and the spacing between the baffles 115. The walkway adjustment assembly 12 is used to automatically adjust the left and right positions of the transport assembly 13. The transport assembly 13 is used to transport the bottles 4.

The tops of the seven baffles 115 are suspended from the two fixed rods 113, and the seven baffles 115 are spaced apart by two positioning slots 114. The two positioning slots 114 fit over the tops of the two fixed rods 113, forming six channels. The six conveyor belts of the transport assembly 13 are located within each of the six channels, one for each channel. The four rows of bottle-sorting fingers b of the bottle-sorting unit 2 can enter the gaps between the six conveyor belts of the transport assembly 13 and the baffles 115 at regular intervals. One end of the two positioning slots 114 is connected to the two handwheels 112. The five spring pieces 115 a are connected to the discharge ends of the five baffles 115 in the middle.

[0039] The adjustment bracket 111 is used to horizontally mount the fixing rod 113 on the frame 3. The handwheel 112 is used to manually adjust the position of the positioning slot 114 on the fixing rod 113, indirectly adjusting the position of the baffle 115 relative to the transport assembly 13. The fixing rod 113 is used to suspend the baffle 115 and install the positioning slot 114. The position of the baffle 115 can be adjusted by changing the position of the fixing rod 113 and the positioning slot 114. The positioning slot 114 is used to arrange the baffles 115 at a certain distance. The baffles 115 are used to separate the six conveyor belts of the transport assembly 13 to prevent bottles from interfering with each other during transportation. The spring clip 115a is used to separate the grouped bottles 4 between the channels to prevent them from interfering with each other.

[0040] like Figure 5-7 As shown, the aisle adjustment assembly 12 includes a reduction motor 121, a connecting shaft 122, two protective covers 123, two adjustment shafts 124 and twelve sliders 125.

The two adjustment shafts 124 are rotatably mounted on the frame 3, and the two adjustment shafts 124 are parallel to each other. Each adjustment shaft 124 is provided with bevel gears at the right end in the second direction, and the bevel gears at both ends of the connecting shaft 122 are respectively connected to the bevel gears of the two adjustment shafts 124. Two protective covers 123 cover the connection between the connecting shaft 122 and the adjustment shaft 124. Each adjustment shaft 124 is provided with six spiral guide grooves 124a, and each slider 125 is provided with a guide shaft. Six sliders 125 are mounted on each adjustment shaft 124, and the sliders 125 are slidably connected to the adjustment shaft 124. The guide shaft is slidably connected to the spiral guide grooves 124a, and the spiral guide grooves 124a limit the position of the guide shaft in the second direction Y. The sliders 125 are connected to both ends of the bottom of the transport base 137 of the transport assembly 13.

[0041] The reduction motor 121 provides power for adjusting the six conveyor belts of the transport assembly 13 left and right in the second direction Y. A connecting shaft 122 transmits the power from the reduction motor 121 to an adjustment shaft 124. The relative motion between the adjustment shaft 124 and the slider 125 adjusts the distance between the six conveyor belts of the transport assembly 13. A protective shield 123 protects the bevel gears, preventing foreign objects from interfering with their operation and providing dust protection.

[0042] like Figure 8 and 9As shown, the transport assembly 13 includes six conveyor belts, a drive shaft 138, and a transport motor 139. Each conveyor belt includes a first drive sprocket 131, a first driven sprocket 132, a tensioning adjustment wheel 133, a mesh chain 134, a drive protection plate 135, a driven protection plate 136, and a transport base 137. The drive shaft 138 is rotatably mounted on the frame 3 via a bearing and is parallel to the adjustment shaft 124 of the aisle adjustment assembly 12. The transport motor 139 is mounted on the right side of the frame 3, and the right end of the drive shaft 138 is connected to the transport motor 139 by a dimension. The drive shaft 138 is square in shape, and the six first drive sprockets 131 are mounted on the drive shaft 138, which can drive the first drive sprockets 131 to rotate. The first drive sprocket 131 and the first driven sprocket 132 are rotatably mounted at either end of a transport base 137. The bottom ends of each transport base 137 are mounted on a slider 125 on two adjustment shafts 124 of the walkway adjustment assembly 12. A tensioning adjustment wheel 133 is mounted below each first drive sprocket 131. The first drive sprocket 131, the first driven sprocket 132, and the tensioning adjustment wheel 133 are connected by a mesh chain 134. A drive protection plate 135 is mounted at the discharge end of the transport base 137, and a driven protection plate 136 is mounted at the feed end of the transport base 137. The feed end of each mesh chain 134 corresponds to a sensor 147 of the detection assembly 14. The mesh chain 134 is located between two adjacent baffles 115 of the baffle adjustment assembly 11. The bottle separating finger 213b of the bottle separating unit 2 alternately enters the two sides of the mesh chain 134 at regular intervals.

[0043] The first drive sprocket 131 is used to transmit power from the drive shaft 138 to the mesh chain 134. It can also slide relative to the drive shaft 138 to adjust the position of the mesh chain 134. The first driven sprocket 132 is used to mount the mesh chain 134 and position one end of the mesh chain 134. The tensioning adjustment wheel 133 is used to adjust the tension of the mesh chain 134.

The two guide blocks 143 are slidably connected to the two columns 141, and the ends of the synchronization shaft 144 are respectively mounted on the two guide blocks 143. Gears are provided at both ends of the synchronization shaft 144, which mesh with the racks of the columns 141. The handle 142 is connected to one end of the synchronization shaft 144. Both ends of the guide rod 145 are connected to the two guide blocks 143 , and six inductive sensors 147 are mounted on the guide rod 145 via six locking screws 146 . The six inductive sensors 147 correspond one-to-one to the six network chains 134 of the transport assembly 13 .

[0045] Column 141 is used to maintain the synchronization shaft 144 and guide rod 145 at a certain height. Handle 142 facilitates operator manipulation of synchronization shaft 144. Guide block 143 connects synchronization shaft 144 and guide rod 145. Synchronization shaft 144 is used to adjust the height of inductive sensor 147. Guide rod 145 is used to mount inductive sensor 147. Locking screw 146 is used to secure inductive sensor 147 to guide rod 145. Inductive sensor 147 is used to detect the presence of bottle 4 on the web chain 134 of transport assembly 13.

[0046] like Figure 11 and Figure 12As shown, the bottle separating unit 2 includes two bottle separating motors 201, two speed reducers 202, two transmission shafts 203, two driven synchronous couplings, two driving synchronous couplings, a support rod 210, a bearing support plate 211, two guide rails 212, and four bottle separating finger couplings 213. The bottle separating motor 201 is mounted on the side panel at the left end of the frame 3. The two bottle separating motors 201 are respectively connected to the two speed reducers 202. The two speed reducers 202 are respectively connected to the two transmission shafts 203. The two ends of the two transmission shafts 203 are rotatably mounted on the two side panels of the frame 3. The middle portions of the two transmission shafts 203 are connected by the bearing support plate 211. The two driving synchronous couplings are respectively connected to the two transmission shafts 203 at their ends, and the two driving synchronous couplings are parallel to each other. The two driven synchronous couplings are respectively connected to the two transmission shafts 203 at their ends, and the two driven synchronous couplings are parallel to each other. The middle portion of the bearing support plate 211 is connected to the middle portion of the support rod 210. The middle portions of the two driving synchronous couplings are connected to the support rod 210, and the two driving synchronous couplings are located on either side of the bearing support plate 211. The middle portions of the two driven synchronous couplings are mounted on the support rod 210, and the two driven synchronous couplings are located outside the two driving synchronous couplings. The ends of the support rod 210 are respectively mounted on the two side panels of the frame 3. Two guide rails 212 are mounted on the inner sides of the two side panels of the frame 3. Four bottle-splitting fingers 213 are divided into two groups, each group having two bottle-splitting fingers 213. The ends of the two groups of bottle-splitting fingers 213 are respectively slidably connected to the two guide rails 212, and the two groups of bottle-splitting fingers 213 are symmetrically arranged on either side of the guide rails 212. The drive chains 205 of the two driving synchronous couplings are respectively connected to the two groups of bottle-splitting fingers 213, and the two groups of bottle-splitting fingers 213 are arranged opposite each other, located on either side of the drive chains 205. As the bottle-separating fingers 213 rotate, they alternately enter the left and right sides of the transport assembly 13. By adjusting the spacing between the two bottle-separating fingers 213 in each group (i.e., changing the connection position between the two bottle-separating fingers 213 and the drive chain 205), the number of bottles in each group can be adjusted.

[0047] The bottle-splitting motor 201 provides power for the rotation of the bottle-splitting finger coupling 213. The speed reducer 202 is used to reduce the speed of the bottle-splitting motor 201 and transmit it to the drive shaft 203. The drive shaft 203 is used to drive the driven synchronous coupling and the driving synchronous coupling to rotate. The driven synchronous coupling is used to synchronize the rotation of the two drive shafts 203. The driving synchronous coupling is used to drive the four bottle-splitting finger couplings 213 to rotate. The support rod 210 is used to fix the bearing support plate 211, the driven synchronous coupling, and the driving synchronous coupling. The bearing support plate 211 is used to fix the two drive shafts 203. The guide rail 212 guides the movement direction of the four bottle-splitting finger couplings 213. The bottle-splitting finger couplings 213 are used to group the bottles 4.

[0048] like Figure 11 and 12As shown, each driving synchronous coupling comprises two second drive sprockets 204, a drive chain 205 and a drive chain rail 206. The two second drive sprockets 204 are respectively installed on the two transmission shafts 203. The two second drive sprockets 204 are connected by the drive chain 205, and the drive chain 205 is installed on the drive chain rail 206, and the drive chain rail 206 is installed on the support rod 210. The drive chain 205 is connected with the adapter block 213d of the bottle dividing finger coupling 213. The second drive sprocket 204 plays a transmission role, and is used for the power transmission on the two transmission shafts 203 to the drive chain 205. The drive chain 205 plays a transmission role. The drive chain rail 206 is used to install the drive chain 205.

[0049] like Figure 11 and 12 As shown, each driven synchronous clutch includes two second driven sprockets 207, a driven chain 208, and a driven chain rail 209. The two second driven sprockets 207 are mounted on two transmission shafts 203, respectively. The two second driven sprockets 207 are connected by the driven chain 208. The driven chain 208 is mounted on the driven chain rail 209, which is mounted on the support rod 210. The second driven sprockets 207 and the driven chain 208 both serve as synchronization. The driven chain rail 209 is used to mount the driven chain 208.

[0050] like Figure 13 As shown, each bottle-separating finger coupling 213 includes a bottle-separating finger frame 213a, twelve bottle-separating finger rods 213b, two pulleys 213c, and two adapter blocks 213d. The two pulleys 213c are respectively mounted at both ends of the bottle-separating finger frame 213a, and the two pulleys 213c are slidably connected to the two guide rails 212. The bottle-separating finger frame 213a is connected to the continuous drive chain 205 that drives the synchronous coupling via the adapter block 213d. The bottle-separating finger rods 213b are vertically connected to the bottle-separating finger frame 213a, and the bottle-separating finger rods 213b can alternately enter between the transport component 13 and the baffle adjustment component 11, that is, the two bottle-separating finger rods 213b are respectively on both sides of the network chain 134 of a transport component 13.

[0051] The bottle-sorting finger frame 213a is used to install twelve bottles at regular intervals. The bottle-sorting finger rod 213b is used to group the bottles 4. The pulley 213c is used to reduce the friction between the bottle-sorting finger rod 213b and the guide rail 212. The adapter block 213d acts as a transmission, transmitting power from the drive chain 205 to the bottle-sorting finger frame 213a.

[0052] A bottle grouping device using the process description: Figure 14As shown, the aisle adjustment assembly 12 adjusts the relative positions of the six conveyor belts of the transport assembly 13 based on the material receiving location of the next process. The spacing between the baffles 115 is adjusted based on the size of the bottles 4 by changing the size of the positioning slots 114. Adjusting the position of the positioning slots 114 adjusts the relative positions of the seven baffles 115 and the six conveyor belts of the transport assembly 13. Bottles 4 enter from the feed end of the conveyor belts of the transport assembly 13 and are sorted by the baffles 115 into the six transport assemblies 13. The detection assembly 14 above the six transport assemblies 13 detects the presence of bottles 4 on the six mesh chains 134 of the transport assemblies 13 and provides feedback to the bottle separation unit 2. Driven by the transport assemblies 13, the bottles 4 move forward in a first direction. When the bottles 4 enter the bottle separation unit 2, the two-group bottle finger assembly 213 of the bottle separation unit 2 alternately enters the six conveyor belts of the transport assembly 13. There are two groups of bottle finger joints 213 on the bottle separation unit 2, and each group of bottle finger joints 213 has two bottle separation finger joints 213. When the two bottle separation finger joints 213 of the first group enter the two sides of the transport component 13 in turn, the bottle separation finger joint 213 in the front blocks the bottle 4 in front, separating the bottle 4 from the bottle 4 in the front. The bottle separation finger joint 213 at the rear is inserted between the bottles 4 (there can be 1 to 5 bottles 4 between the two bottle separation finger joints 213), that is, the bottles 4 between the two bottle separation finger joints 213 form a group. When the bottle separation finger joints 213 of this group continue to move forward, the bottle separation finger joint 213 in the front leaves the transport component 13, that is, it no longer blocks the bottles 4. Under the action of the transport component 13, the bottles 4 continue to move forward. At this time, the bottle separation finger joint 213 at the rear of this group blocks the forward movement of the bottles 4 at the rear, thereby separating the bottles 4 in this group from the bottles 4 at the rear. After the first set of bottle-separating finger-engaging elements 213 leaves the transport assembly 13, the second set of two bottle-separating finger-engaging elements 213 enter the transport assembly 13 on both sides, performing the same action as the first set, and grouping the next set of bottles 4. The two sets of bottle-separating finger-engaging elements 213 alternately enter the transport assembly 13, achieving repeated grouping of the bottles 4.

[0053] The above specific implementation methods are preferred embodiments of the present invention and cannot limit the present invention. Any other changes or other equivalent replacement methods that do not deviate from the technical solution of the present invention are included in the scope of protection of the present invention.
