Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of material canning, and in particular relates to a fully automatic M-shaped shaping mechanism. Background Technology

[0002] In the pharmaceutical, food, and chemical industries, the packaging requirements for bulk granular and powdered medicines are stringent. It is essential to ensure the quality, safety, and efficacy of medicines, food, and chemical materials, and to guarantee the sealing and moisture-proof properties of raw materials during filling and storage to prevent cross-contamination.

[0003] In the pharmaceutical, food, and chemical industries, fully automated ton bag filling systems mostly use single-line sealing for bag opening, without M-type sealing. If M-type sealing is required, manual intervention is necessary, which cannot achieve automation or intelligence, and fully automated M-type sealing is not possible. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a fully automatic M-shaped shaping mechanism, which aims to solve the problems existing in the background art.

[0005] This utility model is implemented as follows: a fully automatic M-shaped shaping mechanism includes a main frame, wherein the fully automatic M-shaped shaping mechanism comprises:

[0006] A lifting cylinder is fixed to the main frame, and a shaping push plate is connected to the piston rod end of the lifting cylinder;

[0007] A pneumatic finger translation mechanism is mounted on the main frame, and a pneumatic finger one and a pneumatic finger two are mounted on the pneumatic finger translation mechanism;

[0008] The pneumatic finger one and pneumatic finger two are located on both sides of the main frame, and the pneumatic finger one and pneumatic finger two are used to clamp the mouth of the ton bag;

[0009] A photoelectric switch is mounted on the main frame and is used to detect whether a ton bag has entered.

[0010] As a further embodiment of this invention, the surface of the shaping push plate is provided with an anti-slip material.

[0011] As a further embodiment of this invention, the photoelectric switch is a bidirectional photoelectric switch, used for dual detection of the ton bag entering and exiting.

[0012] As a further embodiment of this utility model, the pneumatic finger translation mechanism is provided with a limit switch to limit the translation limit positions of pneumatic finger one and pneumatic finger two.

[0013] The fully automatic M-shaped shaping mechanism provided by this utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0014] This fully automated M-shaped shaping mechanism, through the automated control of pneumatic fingers and shaping pushers, can complete the shaping and clamping of the M-shaped bag opening without human intervention, significantly improving production efficiency and consistency. The mechanism's design allows for seamless integration of the ton bag shaping and filling processes, greatly shortening the operation cycle. Photoelectric switches enable real-time detection of the ton bag's position, ensuring efficient integration of the shaping and filling processes, thereby improving the overall production line efficiency. The equipped photoelectric switches not only detect the ton bag's position but can also be linked with the central control system for real-time monitoring and data feedback. This intelligent monitoring effectively reduces operational risks, promptly detects and handles faults, and ensures smooth production. Attached Figure Description

[0018] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model.

[0019] The specific implementation of this utility model will be described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments.

[0020] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown in this embodiment of the invention, the fully automatic M-shaped shaping mechanism includes:

[0021] The lifting cylinder 2 is fixed on the main frame, and the piston rod end of the lifting cylinder 2 is connected to the shaping push plate 1;

[0022] A pneumatic finger translation mechanism 6 is mounted on the main frame, and a pneumatic finger 3 and a pneumatic finger 4 are mounted on the pneumatic finger translation mechanism 6.

[0023] The pneumatic finger 3 and pneumatic finger 4 are located on both sides of the main frame, and the pneumatic finger 3 and pneumatic finger 4 are used to clamp the opening of the ton bag 5.

[0024] A photoelectric switch 7 is installed on the main frame and is used to detect whether a ton bag 5 has entered.

[0025] After the clamp picks up the ton bag 5, the pneumatic fingers 2 4 close and clamp the four corners of the M-shaped bag opening. Then, after the clamp delivers the ton bag 5 to the filling station, the photoelectric switch 7 detects that the ton bag 5 is in place. The pneumatic fingers 1 3 of the M-shaped bag opening shaping mechanism close, catch the ton bag 5, and the clamp retracts. After filling is completed, the lifting cylinder 2 starts and the shaping push plate 1 moves down. The three-axis cylinder pushes the shaping plate to move towards the center. At the same time, the pneumatic fingers 1 3 are pushed by the circular cylinder 8 to move towards the horizontal center. Then, the lifting cylinder 2 retracts, the shaping push plate 1 moves up, and after it is in place, the shaping push plate 1 returns to the starting position. The pneumatic fingers open, and the M-shaped bag opening is shaped.

[0026] In this embodiment, the surface of the shaping push plate 1 is provided with an anti-slip material.

[0027] In this embodiment, the photoelectric switch 7 is a bidirectional photoelectric switch 7, used for dual detection of the ton bag 5 entering and exiting.

[0028] In this embodiment, the pneumatic finger translation mechanism 6 is equipped with a limit switch to limit the translation limit positions of pneumatic finger 3 and pneumatic finger 4.

[0029] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
