AI Technical Summary
During the filling process of existing liquid filling machines, the needle is easily in contact with the filling bottle due to the deviation of the filling bottle mouth, causing damage to the needle and shortening its service life.
A needle protection structure for a liquid filling machine is designed, which includes a protective sleeve and a positioning unit. The protective sleeve provides reset elasticity through a spring, and the positioning unit adjusts the position of the filling bottle mouth through a guide sleeve and a positioning block to align the needle with the bottle mouth to avoid collision.
It effectively prevents the needle from contacting the filling bottle during the filling process, thereby improving the service life of the needle and the filling accuracy.

[0002] Liquid filling machines are important equipment in modern production. They can quickly and accurately fill liquid products into various containers and are widely used in beverages, medicines, daily chemicals and other fields.
[0003] When existing machines fill liquid materials, they generally move the filling bottle under the needle through an indirect conveyor belt, drive the needle downward, extend the needle into the interior of the filling bottle, and then fill it. After the filling is completed, the filling bottle is capped. However, during the injection filling process, if the filling bottle mouth deviates, not only the needle cannot accurately inject into the filling bottle, but the needle may even contact the filling bottle during the descent process, causing the needle to be damaged due to collision. Therefore, the utility model proposes a needle protection structure for a liquid filling machine. Utility Model Content

The protection mechanism 3 is used to protect the needle part of the needle tube 1 and adjust the position of the filling bottle mouth;
[0030] The protection mechanism 3 includes a protection unit and a positioning unit;
[0031] The protection unit is used to protect the needle part of the needle tube 1;
[0032] The positioning unit is used to adjust the position of the filling bottle mouth;
[0033] The protection unit includes a protection sleeve 301 and a spring 303;
[0034] The protective sleeve 301 is vertically slidably mounted on the bottom end of the inner wall of the fixed sleeve 2 and extends into the inner cavity of the fixed sleeve 2. The protective sleeve 301 is used to protect the needle tube 1;
[0035] The two ends of the spring 303 are respectively clamped on the top of the protective sleeve 301 and the top of the inner cavity of the fixed sleeve 2. The spring 303 is used to provide a restoring elastic force for the vertical movement of the protective sleeve 301.
[0036] The positioning unit includes a guide sleeve 302, a fixing rod 304, a positioning block 305, a guide groove 306, and a guide rod 307;
[0037] The guide sleeve 302 is integrally formed at the bottom end of the protective sleeve 301 and is used to provide guidance for the entry of the filling bottle mouth;
[0038] The fixing rod 304 is fixed to the bottom end of the fixing sleeve 2 and passes through the guide sleeve 302 to the inner cavity of the guide sleeve 302;
[0039] The positioning block 305 is axially slidably installed in the inner cavity of the guide sleeve 302. The positioning block 305 in the moving state is used to provide an extrusion guide for the filling bottle mouth;
[0040] The guide groove 306 is provided on the inner side of the positioning block 305 and is used to provide guidance for the movement of the guide rod 307;
[0041] The guide rod 307 is fixed to the outer wall of the fixing rod 304 and extends to the inner cavity of the guide groove 306 . The guide rod 307 is used to provide an extrusion thrust for the axial movement of the positioning block 305 .
[0042] In this embodiment: through this structure, when filling the filling bottle, when the bottle mouth of the filling bottle is misaligned with the needle of the needle tube 1 moving downward, the inner side of the guide sleeve 302 located below the needle will first partially contact the outer wall of the filling bottle. Due to the partial contact of the bottle mouth, the force on the filling bottle is unbalanced, causing the top bottle mouth of the filling bottle to move along the inner side of the bottom end of the guide sleeve 302, causing the filling bottle as a whole to tilt until the bottle mouth and the needle are in the same vertical line. At the same time, the guide sleeve 302 moving synchronously with the needle tube 1 will be squeezed by the filling bottle and move upward. The upward movement of the guide sleeve 302 will synchronously drive the protective sleeve 301 to move, and the protective sleeve 301 The movement will give the spring 303 an extruding force, causing the needle to gradually enter the bottle mouth of the filling bottle, and the moving guide sleeve 302 will also move along the outer surface of the fixed rod 304. The guide rod 307 on the outer wall of the fixed rod 304 will give an extruding force to the inner cavity of the guide groove 306, so that the positioning block 305 moves axially along the inner cavity of the guide groove 306 under the extrusion of the guide rod 307 and contacts the bottle mouth of the filling bottle. The filling bottle in a tilted state will also be pushed by the positioning block 305, causing it to be straightened and reset to a vertical state from the tilted state, avoiding the situation where the filling bottle and the needle are misaligned and causing damage to the needle, thereby further improving the service life of the needle.
[0043] Please refer to Figure 1-Figure 3 The guide groove 306 is arranged in an inclined state on the inner side of the positioning block 305, and the inner cavity of the guide groove 306 coincides with the outer wall of the guide rod 307. There are three positioning blocks 305, and the three positioning blocks 305 are circumferentially distributed in the inner cavity of the guide sleeve 302. The inner bottom of the guide sleeve 302 is in a trumpet-shaped state.
[0044] In this embodiment, this structure can provide tilting guidance for the filling bottle through the bell mouth on the inner side of the bottom end of the guide sleeve 302, and at the same time provide thrust for the filling bottle to return to its original position during the movement of the guide sleeve 302.
[0045] Please refer to Figure 1-Figure 3 The outer wall of the protective sleeve 301 is in a T-shaped structure as a whole, and the inner cavity of the fixed sleeve 2 is formed with a movable groove for the protective sleeve 301 to move vertically.
[0046] In this embodiment, this structure can provide guidance for the movement of the protective sleeve 301 when the protective sleeve 301 is forced to move upward.
[0047] The above is only a preferred specific implementation method of the present invention, but the protection scope of the present invention is not limited to this. Any technician familiar with the technical field within the technical scope disclosed by the present invention can make equivalent replacements or changes based on the technical solution and utility model concept of the present invention, which should be covered by the protection scope of the present invention.
