Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the field of automatic production equipment, relates to the packaging production of liquor, and particularly relates to a spacing device for separating wine glasses and boxes. Background Art

[0002] With the improvement of production efficiency and the continuous improvement of the degree of automation, the use of automated equipment to replace manual labor in the production of liquor is an inevitable development direction. When it is necessary to put a small gift box containing wine glasses into an outer packaging box, the wine glass boxes are transported on the conveyor belt in a close-fitting manner, and then a robot grabs the wine box and transfers it to the outer packaging box. However, there is still a big gap between the flexibility of mechanical equipment and manual labor. The robot requires a large installation space and operating space, and it is difficult to continuously grab the wine glass boxes that are continuously transported on the conveyor belt. The wine glass boxes need to be divided into equal intervals. However, the existing spacing method usually uses a twin-screw structure. However, when used for wine glass boxes with the same side length and no gaps, it cannot accurately cut into the gaps between the boxes, which can easily cause damage to the box body. Summary of the Invention

[0003] In order to solve the shortcomings and deficiencies in the prior art, the present application proposes a wine glass box spacing device.

[0004] Specifically, the present application proposes a spacing device for separating wine glass boxes.

[0005] A device for distributing wine glass boxes and setting spacing comprises a frame, an input channel, an output channel, a first star wheel, a second star wheel, a triangular conveyor belt and a block. An input channel and an output channel are arranged at intervals along the horizontal longitudinal direction at the upper end of the frame. The input channel is parallel to the output channel and is staggered. The outlet of the input channel is connected to the entrance of the output channel. A first star wheel and a second star wheel are respectively arranged on both sides of the horizontal position of the input channel outlet. The first star wheel and the second star wheel cooperate to push the box body at the outlet of the input channel to the entrance of the output channel. A triangular conveyor belt is installed above the entrance position of the output channel. Blocks are evenly spaced on the outer circumference of the triangular conveyor belt. The triangular conveyor belt rotates at a uniform speed to drive each block to drive a box body, so that the box bodies enter the output channel at equal intervals.

[0006] Moreover, the device is arranged between the input conveyor belt and the output conveyor belt. Anchor screws are arranged at the four corners of the lower end of the frame to adjust the frame height. The box body is transported from the input conveyor belt through the device to the output conveyor belt.

[0007] Moreover, the outlet of the input channel and the two side walls of the inlet of the output channel are respectively connected with connecting baffles.

[0008] Moreover, the first star wheel and the second star wheel are both one-way ratchet structures with the same size, and the pawls of the first star wheel and the second star wheel face opposite rotation directions.

[0009] Moreover, the teeth of the second star wheel intersect with the input channel, and the outer circle of the second star wheel is tangent to the outer wall of the adjacent side of the output channel. As the second star wheel rotates, the box body at the outlet of the input channel can be pushed laterally a fixed distance.

[0010] Moreover, the teeth of the first star wheel intersect with the output channel, and the intersection dimension is a fixed distance so that the input box body can be pushed longitudinally, pushing the box body toward the entrance of the output channel, and leaving gaps between adjacent box bodies.

[0011] Moreover, guide plates that are inclined outwards are provided on both sides of the inlet of the input channel.

[0012] The advantages and positive effects of the present invention are:

[0013] The technical solution of the present application adopts the continuous operation mode of the star wheel group to continuously separate the stacked wine glass boxes into intervals and transport them to the conveyor belt with grids, so as to divide the wine glass boxes into equal intervals for transmission, ensuring continuous operation while enabling the robot to accurately grasp the wine glass boxes.

[0020] To make the structure and advantages of the present invention more clear, the structure of the present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0021] A device for separating and spacing wine glass boxes is provided between an input conveyor belt and an output conveyor belt (the input conveyor belt and the output conveyor belt are not shown in the figure). The boxes to be packaged are transported from the input conveyor belt to the output conveyor belt after passing through the device. The device includes a frame, an input channel, an output channel, a first star wheel, a second star wheel, a triangular conveyor belt, and a barrier.

[0022] See attached Figure 1 As shown, there are anchor screws at the four corners of the lower end of the rack to adjust the rack height to ensure that the rack matches the height of the conveyor belt in the production line. A fixed distance component is installed on the upper end of the rack.

[0023] The specific structure of the distance component is shown in the attached Figure 2 As shown, the horizontal and vertical directions are described in the directions shown in the attached drawings. An input channel and an output channel are arranged at intervals along the horizontal longitudinal direction at the upper end of the frame. The input channel is parallel to the output channel and is staggered. The staggered length is a. The outlet of the input channel and the inlet of the output channel are connected to the two side walls with connecting baffles, which limit the movement path of the box body and ensure the continuity of the wine box conveying channel. The width of the input channel and the output channel are matched with the width of the box body to ensure the accurate position of the box body during transportation. The inlet of the input channel is used to connect with the outlet of the input conveyor belt. The inlet of the input channel is provided with guide plates that open outward on both sides to facilitate the box body to enter the input channel. The outlet of the output channel is used to connect the inlets between the output conveyor belts.

[0024] A first star wheel and a second star wheel are respectively provided on both sides of the lateral side of the input channel outlet position. The first star wheel and the second star wheel cooperate to push the box body at the input channel outlet to the entrance of the output channel. The box body is staggered here so that it can be further transmitted at equal intervals. The first star wheel and the second star wheel are both one-way ratchet structures of the same size, and the pawls of the first star wheel and the second star wheel face opposite rotation directions. The first star wheel and the second star wheel are respectively equipped with servo motors for driving;

[0025] See attached Figure 3 、 4 As shown, the teeth of the second star wheel intersect with the input channel, and the outer circle of the second star wheel is tangent to the outer wall of the adjacent side of the output channel. As the second star wheel rotates, it can push the box body at the outlet of the input channel laterally, the pushing distance is a, and reaches the coaxial position of the output channel;

[0026] The teeth of the first star wheel intersect with the output channel, and the intersection size is no greater than a, so that the input box can be pushed longitudinally without collision interference, and the box is pushed toward the entrance of the output channel, leaving a gap b between adjacent boxes.

[0027] A triangular conveyor belt is installed above the entrance of the output channel. Blocks are evenly spaced on the outer circumference of the triangular conveyor belt. The triangular conveyor belt rotates at a constant speed, and the blocks are embedded in the interval b to push the box body toward the output channel. Each block drives one box body, thereby ensuring that the spacing between the boxes entering the output channel is the same.

[0028] The above descriptions are merely embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the scope of protection of the present invention.
