AI Technical Summary
In the existing technology, during the transportation of easy-open lids, two bundles of lid strips may slide to the processing station at the same time, causing the processing station to have to stop the machine for cleaning, making it impossible to load the materials one by one.
A flip-plate mechanism for auxiliary feeding was designed. The central shaft is driven to rotate by the drive mechanism. Combined with the cooperation of the flip plate and the top claw, the cover strips are fed one by one, avoiding the simultaneous feeding of multiple sets of cover strips.
This allows for individual feeding of cover strips, avoiding the situation where multiple sets of cover strips are fed to the processing station simultaneously, thus improving processing efficiency and the continuous operation capability of the equipment.

Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of easy-open lid conveying equipment, and in particular to a flip-plate mechanism for auxiliary feeding. Background Technology
[0002] During transportation, aluminum can lids need to be stacked sequentially and wrapped in packaging paper to form strips (referred to as lid strips). Some processing plants typically use a lifting mechanism to raise the lid strips to a high position, and then the lid strips slide along the unloading channel to the processing station for tasks such as peeling off the packaging paper. The drawback of this method is that the lifting mechanism may lift two bundles of stacked lid strips together to the unloading channel, resulting in two bundles of lid strips sliding to the processing station at the same time. Since the processing station can only process one set of lid strips at a time, the machine must be stopped and one set of lid strips removed. Against this backdrop, the applicant is committed to developing a flip-plate mechanism to assist in the feeding of lid strips, enabling the feeding of lid strips one by one and avoiding the situation where two sets of lid strips are fed to the processing station at the same time. Utility Model Content
[0003] The purpose of this invention is to enable the cover strips to be fed one by one, thus avoiding the situation where two sets of cover strips are fed to the processing station at the same time.
[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows:
[0005] A flip-plate mechanism for assisting in feeding includes a drive mechanism, a central shaft, a flip plate, and a feeding plate. The flip plate is fixedly mounted on the central shaft, and the feeding plate is inclined. The drive mechanism drives the central shaft to rotate, thereby causing the flip plate to block or be parallel to the lower end of the feeding plate.
[0006] Furthermore, it also includes a top material claw, which is fixedly mounted on the central shaft, and the top material claw and the flip plate are located on two opposite sides of the central shaft. The loading plate is provided with a top material hole, and the top material claw and the top material hole cooperate with each other.
[0007] Furthermore, it also includes a controller and a reflective sensor. The reflective sensor and the drive mechanism are electrically connected to the controller. The feeding plate has a detection hole, and the reflective sensor is installed at the detection hole.
[0008] Furthermore, it also includes a pusher block, which is fixedly mounted on the central shaft, and the drive mechanism drives the pusher block to rotate.
[0009] Furthermore, it also includes two sets of limiting components, with a stop block fixed on the push block, and the two sets of limiting components and the stop block cooperate with each other.
[0010] Furthermore, it also includes a baffle, which is fixedly mounted on the central axis and is perpendicular to the flap.
[0011] Furthermore, it also includes a stepped lifting mechanism, which is located on one side of the loading plate.
[0012] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: When feeding the cover strips, the drive mechanism drives the central shaft to rotate, and the central shaft drives the flap to block at the lower end of the feeding plate. If the external lifting mechanism lifts both sets of cover strips to the highest position at the same time, the cover strip in the upper layer first slides down from the lifting mechanism to the feeding plate and is blocked by the flap. The cover strip in the lower layer continues to rise, but because it is blocked by the cover strip in the upper layer, it cannot slide directly onto the feeding plate. After the lifting mechanism drives the cover strip in the lower layer to move down, the drive mechanism drives the central shaft to rotate, and the central shaft drives the flap to be parallel to the lower end of the feeding plate. The cover strip in the upper layer slides down along the flap to the processing station. This process is repeated, so that this utility model achieves the purpose of feeding the cover strips one by one, avoiding the situation where two sets of cover strips are fed to the processing station at the same time.

[0019] Drive mechanism 1, central shaft 2, flap 3, feeding plate 4, top material hole 41, detection hole 42, top material claw 5, push block 6, limit assembly 7, baffle 8, stepped lifting mechanism 9. Detailed Implementation
[0020] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0021] like Figures 1 to 5 The illustrated auxiliary feeding flip-plate mechanism includes a drive mechanism 1, a central shaft 2, a flip plate 3, a feeding plate 4, a top claw 5, a controller, a reflective sensor, a push block 6, two sets of limit components 7, a baffle 8, and a stepped lifting mechanism 9.
[0022] The flap 3 is fixedly mounted on the central shaft 2, the feeding plate 4 is inclined, and the driving mechanism 1 drives the central shaft 2 to rotate, thereby causing the flap 3 to block or be parallel to the lower end of the feeding plate 4.
[0023] The lid of the aluminum can is wrapped in packaging paper to form a lid strip. After the lid strip is lifted onto the feeding plate 4, it can slide down from the inclined feeding plate 4 to the processing station under its own weight. When the flip plate 3 is blocked at the lower end of the feeding plate 4, only one set of lid strips is allowed to be temporarily stored between the flip plate 3 and the feeding plate 4. When the second set of lid strips is lifted up in a stepped manner, the second set of lid strips cannot slide between the flip plate 3 and the feeding plate 4 due to the obstruction of the first set of lid strips. It can only descend with the stepped lifting mechanism 9. In this way, the lid strips are fed one by one.
[0024] The top material claw 5 is fixedly mounted on the central shaft 2, and the top material claw 5 and the flip plate 3 are located on two opposite sides of the central shaft 2 respectively. The loading plate 4 is provided with a top material hole 41, and the top material claw 5 and the top material hole 41 cooperate with each other.
[0025] When the flap 3 is parallel to the loading plate 4, the cover strip located between the flap 3 and the loading plate 4 slides down the flap 3 or rolls to the processing station. When the central shaft 2 rotates, the central shaft 2 drives the top plate to rotate. The top plate passes through the lower end of the top hole 41 and pushes the cover strip down from the lower end to prevent the cover strip from staying on the loading plate 4 without moving.
[0026] The reflective sensor and the drive mechanism 1 are electrically connected to the controller. The feeding plate 4 has a detection hole 42. The reflective sensor is set at the detection hole 42. The reflective sensor can detect whether there is a cover strip on the feeding plate 4 through the detection hole 42.
[0027] Push block 6 is fixedly mounted on central shaft 2. Drive mechanism 1 drives push block 6 to rotate, which in turn drives central shaft 2 to rotate.
[0028] A stop block is fixed on the push block 6, and two sets of limiting components 7 cooperate with the stop block. The two sets of limiting components 7 are respectively set on both sides of the stop block's movement trajectory, so that the stop block can rotate within a suitable angle range.
[0029] The baffle 8 is fixedly installed on the central shaft 2, and the baffle 8 is perpendicular to the flip plate 3. When the flip plate 3 is upright, the baffle 8 blocks the lower end of the feeding plate 4 to prevent the broken material from falling into the frame.
[0030] The stepped lifting mechanism 9 is located on one side of the feeding plate 4. The stepped lifting mechanism 9 is existing technology. For example, Chinese utility model CN206871969U discloses a stepped lifting mechanism, which also lifts the material through a stepped lifting mechanism.
[0031] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: the stepped lifting mechanism 9 lifts the cover strip to the highest point, and the cover strip slides down to / or rolls onto the loading plate 4 under its own gravity. The driving mechanism 1 drives the central shaft 2 to rotate, and the central shaft 2 drives the flip plate 3 to rotate and block the lower end of the loading plate 4. When the second set of cover strips is lifted up by the stepped mechanism, the second set of cover strips cannot slide between the flip plate 3 and the loading plate 4 due to the obstruction of the first set of cover strips. Instead, it can only descend with the stepped lifting mechanism 9.
[0032] The drive mechanism 1 drives the central shaft 2 to rotate, the central shaft 2 drives the flap 3 to be parallel to the loading plate 4, and at the same time the central shaft 2 drives the top plate to rotate. The top plate passes through the lower end of the top hole 41 and pushes the cover strip down from the lower end. The cover strip slides down along the loading plate 4 to / or rolls to the processing station.
[0033] The above-disclosed embodiments are merely preferred embodiments of the present utility model and should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of the present utility model. Therefore, any equivalent changes made in accordance with the scope of the patent application of the present utility model shall still fall within the scope of the present utility model. The above does not constitute any limitation on the technical scope of the present utility model.
