Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of tablet or granular object filling in the pharmaceutical or food industry, in particular to a bottle unscrambling mechanism of a bottle unscrambling machine. Background Art
[0002] The pharmaceutical industry or food industry often uses a multi-material bottle filling line for tablet or granule filling, such as Figure 1 As shown, in a conventional pill-counting and bottling production line, empty bottles are conveyed from an empty bottle storage device 1 to a bottle unscrambling device 2, then through a buffer device 3, a first weighing device, a filling device 4, a capping device, a second weighing device, and finally to filling. Typically, the bottle unscrambling device 2 is located in front of the empty bottle storage device 1, and the bottle unscrambling, buffering, filling, and capping devices are all arranged in a straight line. The buffer device 3 is equipped with abnormal bottle detection and rejection devices such as inverted and reversed bottles, as well as an abnormal bottle collection device. Abnormal bottles are then returned to the storage device 1 manually or by a redesigned conveying device. Furthermore, because the bottle unscrambling, buffering, filling, and capping devices are all arranged in a straight line, the entire pill-counting and bottling production line is nearly seven meters long, placing relatively stringent requirements on the factory building in which the production line is installed. This is particularly true when a company needs to expand its production capacity, as the length of the production line restricts the company from building a new factory building. Therefore, how to reduce labor costs and place more assembly lines to increase production capacity and reduce costs without changing the original factory conditions has become an urgent problem that the industry needs to solve.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0019] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings, which are for illustrative purposes only and are not to be construed as limiting the present invention.
[0020] To more concisely illustrate this embodiment, some components well known to those skilled in the art but not relevant to the main content of this invention may be omitted from the drawings or descriptions. In addition, for ease of description, some components may be omitted, enlarged, or reduced in size in the drawings, but they do not represent the dimensions or entire structure of the actual product.
[0021] The utility model discloses a bottle unscrambling mechanism of a bottle unscrambling machine. Figure 2-3 As shown, it includes a storage device 1, a bottle unscrambling device 2 and a buffer device 3. The bottle unscrambling device 2 is arranged behind the storage device 1, and the buffer device 3 is connected to the bottle unscrambling device 2 and arranged longitudinally, that is, extending from the bottle unscrambling device 2 to the storage device 1 from the back to the front. This arrangement shortens the horizontal length occupied by the buffer device 3 in the prior art. Figure 4 As shown, Figure 1 In comparison, the goal of shortening the length of the entire assembly line is ultimately achieved.
[0022] The buffer device 3 includes a conveyor belt 31 and a driving mechanism for the conveyor belt. Stoppers 32 are provided on both sides of the conveyor belt 31 to regulate the state of the bottles during transportation and prevent the bottles from sliding off the conveyor belt 31 .
[0023] like Figure 2 As shown, the conveyor belt 31 includes a normal bottle conveyor belt 311 and an abnormal bottle conveyor belt 312 . The abnormal bottle conveyor belt 312 is close to the storage device 1 and connected to the storage device 1 .
[0024] An abnormal bottle detection module 34, an abnormal bottle rejection module 35 and an abnormal bottle recovery unit 36 are sequentially arranged in the conveying direction of the conveyor belt 31. The abnormal bottle detection module 34 is used to detect whether the bottles conveyed from the bottle unscrambling device 2 are abnormal bottles that are upside down or upside down. The abnormal bottle rejection module 35 is used to remove the detected abnormal bottles from the transported bottles and send them to the abnormal bottle conveyor belt 312; the abnormal bottle recovery unit 36 is arranged at the connection between the abnormal bottle conveyor belt 312 and the storage device 1, and is used to recover the abnormal bottles conveyed by the abnormal bottle conveyor belt 312 into the storage device 1.
[0025] An isolation section 33 is provided in the middle of the conveyor belt 31, between the normal bottle conveyor belt 311 and the abnormal bottle conveyor belt 312. It is used to separate abnormal bottles from normal bottles during transportation. The initial end of the isolation section 33 is located at the abnormal bottle rejection module 35.
[0026] A facing surface 331 is provided at the starting end of the isolation portion 33 . The facing surface 331 faces the abnormal bottle conveyor belt 312 and is used to guide abnormal bottles onto the abnormal bottle conveyor belt 312 .
[0027] Preferably, the normal bottle conveyor belt 311 and the abnormal bottle conveyor belt 312 are driven by the same driving mechanism. Compared with the prior art, a set of conveying devices specifically used for collecting abnormal bottles and transporting them to the storage device 1 is reduced.
[0028] The connection between the bottle unscrambling device 2 and the buffer device 3 is a conveying trough 21 with an arc-shaped transition. The conveying trough 21 is connected to the buffer device 3. The conveying trough 21 is set to be an arc-shaped transition to ensure that the inverted bottles discharged from the bottle unscrambling device 2 can be smoothly conveyed to the conveyor belt 31, detected by the abnormal bottle body detection module 34, and rejected by the abnormal bottle body rejection module 35. In this way, the conveying of the bottles will not be stagnant and will not affect the normal operation of the entire assembly line.
[0029] One feasible solution is that the abnormal bottle rejection module 35 includes a cylinder and a push rod pushed by the cylinder, and the push rod pushes the abnormal bottles onto the abnormal bottle conveyor belt 312.
[0030] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the scope of implementation of the present invention. In other words, any equivalent changes and modifications made within the scope of the patent application of the present invention should fall within the technical scope of the present invention.
