[0029] In addition, in the description of the present application, the terms "first", "second", etc. are only used to distinguish the description and cannot be understood as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0030] In order to more clearly illustrate the embodiments of the present invention or the technical solutions in the prior art, the specific implementation methods of the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the drawings described below are only some embodiments of the present invention. For those skilled in the art, other drawings and other implementation methods can be obtained based on these drawings without inventive work.

[0031] See also Figure 1 , and combined with Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the utility model is an automated motion capping device for installation on the door frame 1 of the brewing machine. The automated motion capping device includes a capping structure 2 and a cup moving structure 4. The door frame 1 is used to provide an installation base. The capping structure 2 and the cup moving structure 4 are both installed on one side of the door frame 1, and the capping structure 2 is located on the upper part of the cup moving structure 4. In order to realize its overall automation, the utility model is also provided with an automatic cap dropping structure and an automatic cup dropping structure on one side of the capping structure 2.

[0032] The cup transferring structure 4 is first located at the lower part of the automatic cup dropping structure, so that the cup body is automatically dropped onto the cup transferring structure 4 through the automatic cup dropping structure. The cup transferring structure 4 moves to the cover dropping structure, and the cup cover is automatically dropped on the cup body. Then, the cup transferring mechanism moves to the lower part of the cover pressing structure 2, and the cover pressing structure 2 presses the cup cover on the cup body.

[0033] Specifically, an X-slide rail 11 is installed on one side of the door frame 1 of the utility model by installing a side panel 12. The cup moving mechanism includes a slider 41 adapted to the X-slide rail 11. The slider 41 is connected to a connecting arm 42. The above-mentioned cover pressing structure 2, cup moving structure 4, and cover falling structure are all arranged in the direction of the X-slide rail 11.

[0034] The connecting arm 42 of the utility model is equipped with a clamping arm 43 which is self-adaptive to the ligand, and the pressure cover structure 2 is installed on the door frame 1. When the clamping arm 43 moves below the pressure cover structure 2, the clamping arm 43 is arranged relative to the pressure cover structure 2 to achieve the purpose of automatically clamping the cup cover.

[0035] The capping structure 2 of the present invention includes a mounting plate 21, a crank 22 and a guide rail 23. The guide rails 23 are mounted on both sides of the mounting plate 21. A linkage plate 24 is slidably mounted between the guide rails 23. The linkage plate 24 is provided with a movable groove 25. The crank 22 is mounted on the mounting plate 21. A rotating wheel 261 is mounted on the crank 22. The rotating wheel 261 is slidably engaged with the movable groove 25. A motor 27 is provided on the back of the mounting plate 21. The output end of the motor 27 is connected to the crank 22 through a rotating shaft 26. A pressing plate 29 is connected to the end of the linkage plate 24. The pressing plate 29 is connected to the capping plate 31 adapted to the bottle cap through a spring 30. For the specific structure, please refer to Figure 4 、 Figure 5 and Figure 6 shown.

[0036] When the motor 27 is working, it drives the rotating shaft 26 to rotate to drive the crank 22 to rotate. Due to the action between the wheel 261 on the crank 22 and the movable slot 25, the rotation is converted into a moving action to pull the connecting plate 24 to move on the guide rail 23. Since both sides of the pulling plate are guided by the guide rail 23, its movement is smoother, so that the force on the pressure plate 29 is more balanced and stable. Under the action of the pulling plate, the pressure plate 29 and the pressure cover plate 31 on the pressure plate 29 can be driven to move up and down. When the pressure cover plate 31 acts on the cup cover, the spring 30 between the pressure cover plate 31 and the pressure plate 29 can reduce the instantaneous force between the pressure cover plate 31 and the cup cover, thereby avoiding excessive force on the cup cover, which may cause it to be damaged, and at the same time ensure the sealing effect after it is tightened.

[0037] The utility model has four springs 30 , which are respectively arranged at the four corners of the pressure plate 29 to ensure balanced force buffering. At the same time, the pressure cover plate 31 is a hollow structure.

[0038] Preferably, the connecting arm 42 of the present invention is L-shaped, one end of the connecting arm 42 is fixedly connected to the slider 41, and the other end of the connecting arm 42 is installed with a vertical plate 44, and the clamping arm 43 is vertically installed on the vertical plate 44. When the cup body falls into the clamping arm 43, the bottom of the cup body is on the upper part of the connecting arm 42. For the structure, please refer to Figure 3 shown.

[0039] Furthermore, the door frame 1 of the present invention is also provided with a waste water tank arranged below the cup moving structure 4 .

[0040] The utility model provides an automated motion capping device 2, which sets the capping structure 2 above the clamping arm 43. By controlling the movement of the clamping arm 43, the cup body on the clamping arm 43 can automatically carry the cup cover and press the cup cover. At the same time, the motor 27 is used to drive the rotating shaft 26 to rotate to drive the crank 22 to move. The movable groove 25 is combined with the rotating wheel 261 to convert its rotation into linear motion to pull the pressing plate 29 up and down. The spring 30 on the pressing plate 29 is used to achieve buffering of the force when the capping plate 31 and the cup cover act on each other, so as to ensure pre-buffering when the capping plate 31 contacts the cap. When the two are stably fitted together, a pressing action is performed to ensure the pressing effect and avoid the problem of damage to the cup cover during pressing.

[0041] Finally, the method of this application is only a preferred embodiment and is not intended to limit the scope of protection of this utility model. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included in the scope of protection of this utility model.
