[0035] refer to Figures 1 to 5 This invention describes an automatic capping machine according to an embodiment of the present invention.
[0036] like Figures 1 to 5As shown, the automatic capping machine includes a frame 100; a conveyor belt 200 mounted on the frame 100; a first feeding mechanism 300 mounted on the frame 100, the output end of which is connected to the input end of the conveyor belt 200, and the first feeding mechanism 300 is used to supply the box body 10; a second feeding mechanism 400 mounted on the frame 100, located above the conveyor belt 200, and the second feeding mechanism 400 is used to supply the cap body 20; and a capping machine. The first feeding mechanism 300, the cover mechanism 500 is mounted on the frame 100, the input end of the cover mechanism 500 is connected to the output end of the second feeding mechanism 400, and the output end of the cover mechanism 500 corresponds to the conveyor belt 200. The cover mechanism 500 is used to cover the box body 10 with the cover 20. The pressing mechanism 600 is mounted on the frame 100 and is used to press the cover 20 and the box body 10 together. The first feeding mechanism 300, the cover mechanism 500 and the pressing mechanism 600 are arranged sequentially along the extension direction of the conveyor belt 200.
[0037] like Figure 1 As shown, the conveyor belt 200 is mounted on the frame 100 in a left-right direction. The first feeding mechanism 300, the covering mechanism 500, and the pressing mechanism 600 are sequentially mounted on the conveyor belt 200 to the right. The first feeding mechanism 300 is located at the left end of the conveyor belt 200, and its output end is connected to the input end of the conveyor belt 200. The second feeding mechanism 400 is located above the conveyor belt 200, and its output end is connected to the input end of the covering mechanism 500. The output end of the covering mechanism 500 corresponds to that of the conveyor belt 200. The first feeding mechanism 300 conveys the box body 10 to the covering mechanism 500, and the second feeding mechanism 400 conveys the cover body 20 to the covering mechanism 500. When the box body 10 is moved to the covering mechanism 500 by the conveyor belt 200, the cover body 20 supplied by the second feeding mechanism 400 covers the box body 10 via the covering mechanism 500. The conveyor belt 200 drives the box body 10 and the cover body 20 to the pressing mechanism 600, where the pressing mechanism 600 presses the cover body 20 tightly onto the upper end of the box body 10. This achieves automated production of the box body 10, reduces the production cycle, improves production efficiency, and reduces labor and time costs while improving product quality and consistency.
[0038] In some specific embodiments of this utility model, the first feeding mechanism 300 includes a first transport channel 310, which is disposed on the frame 100 and arranged along the conveying direction. The output end of the first transport channel 310 is connected to the input end of the conveyor belt 200, and the first transport channel 310 is used to transport the box body 10. Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the first transport channel 310 extends in the left and right direction, and its right end is connected to the conveyor belt 200. When multiple boxes 10 are fed from the left end of the first transport channel 310, the first transport channel 310 will transport the boxes 10 to the conveyor belt 200 in sequence.
[0039] In some specific embodiments of this utility model, the first feeding mechanism 300 further includes: a second transport channel 320, which is disposed on the frame 100, and the output end of the second transport channel 320 is connected to the input end of the first transport channel 310; and a plurality of third transport channels 330, which are all disposed side by side with the second transport channel 320 on the frame 100, each third transport channel 330 having an outlet end, and the plurality of outlet ends being disposed along the transport direction of the box 10, and all the third transport channels 330 being connected to the second transport channel 320 through their corresponding outlet ends, so that the boxes 10 on the plurality of third transport channels 330 converge on the first transport channel 310 through the second transport channel 320.
[0040] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the second transport channel 320 is coaxially arranged with the first transport channel 310, and the second transport channel 320 is located at the left end of the first transport channel 310. Several third transport channels 330 are arranged side-by-side at the front end of the second transport channel 320. Specifically, each third transport channel 330 has an inlet end and an outlet end, as shown... Figure 2 As shown, the entrances of several third transport channels 330 are arranged side-by-side at the front end of the second transport channel 320, and the exits of the third transport channels 330 are arranged sequentially along the extension direction of the second transport channel 320. Each third transport channel 330 is connected to the second transport channel 320 via its exit. Thus, multiple boxes 10 enter different third transport channels 330 from different entrances. Guided by the corresponding third transport channels 330, the multiple boxes 10 converge onto the first transport channel 310 through their corresponding exits. This provides flexibility and scalability for the transport of the boxes 10, and while expanding the transport route, it can reduce cross-interference between boxes 10, optimize the transport and processing flow, improve the operating efficiency of the production line, reduce waiting time, and accelerate production speed.
[0041] It should be noted that, in this specific embodiment, the first transport channel 310 is formed by a first conveyor belt arranged in the left-right direction and baffles respectively provided at the front and rear ends of the first conveyor belt, the second transport channel 320 is formed by a second transmission belt connected to the left end of the first conveyor belt and baffles provided at the rear end of the second conveyor belt, and a plurality of third conveyor belts are arranged side by side at the front end of the second transmission belt, each third conveyor belt corresponding to the entrance end of a third transport channel 330, and the third transport channel 330 is formed by a plurality of third conveyor belts and baffles provided at the upper end of the third conveyor belts for guiding purposes.
[0042] In some specific embodiments of this utility model, the first feeding mechanism 300 further includes a first guide 340, which is disposed between the first transport channel 310 and the second transport channel 320. The first guide 340 is used to guide the box 10 on the second transport channel 320 to converge into the first transport channel 310.
[0043] like Figure 2 As shown, a first guide 340 is provided between the first transport channel 310 and the second transport channel 320. In this specific embodiment, the first guide 340 is a guide plate that bends forward. The left end of the guide plate is connected to the third transport channel 330 located at the rightmost end, and the right end is connected to the first transport channel 310. This helps the box 10 maintain the correct position and direction when the various third transport channels 330 converge on the second transport channel 320, and prevents the box 10 from deviating from the track and causing blockage during the transport process.
[0044] In some specific embodiments of this utility model, the second feeding mechanism 400 includes a fourth conveying channel 410, which is disposed on the frame 100. The projection of the fourth conveying channel 410 coincides with the conveyor belt 200, and the fourth conveying channel 410 is used to convey the cover 20.
[0045] In some specific embodiments of this utility model, the covering mechanism 500 includes: a transition channel 510, the input end of which is connected to the output end of the fourth conveying channel 410; and a covering component 520, which is disposed at the output end of the transition channel 510 and is used to cover the cover 20 onto the box body 10.
[0046] In some specific embodiments of this utility model, the fourth conveying channel 410 is inclined, and the end of the fourth conveying channel 410 near the transition channel 510 is lower than the other end.
[0047] like Figure 1 and Figure 3As shown, the projection of the fourth conveying channel 410 coincides with the conveyor belt 200. The fourth conveying channel 410 is inclined downward towards the transition channel 510. The transition channel 510 is connected to the output end of the fourth conveying channel 410. The extension direction of the transition channel 510 is consistent with that of the fourth conveying channel 410. When a cover 20 is manually placed into the fourth conveying channel 410, the cover 20 will fall into the transition channel 510 in the direction defined by the fourth conveying channel. Finally, it will be covered by the cover assembly 520 in sequence on the multiple boxes 10 conveyed to the right by the conveyor belt 200 below.
[0048] It should be noted that the fourth conveying channel 410 is formed by the fourth conveyor belt and the limiting baffles located at the front and rear ends of the fourth conveyor belt.
[0049] In some specific embodiments of this utility model, the cover assembly 520 includes: a temporary storage channel 521, the input end of which is connected to the output end of the transition channel 510, and the temporary storage channel 521 is used to temporarily store the cover 20; a blocking member 522, which is movably disposed on the output end of the temporary storage channel 521, and is used to prevent the cover 20 in the temporary storage channel 521 from falling out; and a clamping member 523, which is movably disposed on the temporary storage channel 521, and is used to clamp the cover 20 in the temporary storage channel 521. During transportation, the box 10 pushes open the blocking member 522 and causes the cover 20 that has fallen onto the box 10 to detach from the clamping member 523.
[0050] like Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown, the temporary storage channel 521 is arranged along the extension direction of the transition channel 510, and its input end is connected to the output end of the transition channel 510. The output end of the transition channel 510 is provided with a blocking member 522, which is movably connected to the transition channel 510. The clamping member 523 is movably disposed on the temporary storage channel 521, located on the side of the blocking member 522 closer to the transition channel 510. It should be noted that the temporary storage channel 521 is a pipe with a rectangular cross-section, and both the clamping member 523 and the blocking member 522 are movably connected to this pipe. Specifically, the blocking member 522 is hinged to the pipe and can rotate in the up and down direction to approach and move away from the conveyor belt 200. The clamping member 523 consists of clamps respectively disposed at the front and rear ends of the pipe. The left ends of both clamps are hinged to the pipe, and the right ends of both clamps are free ends. A tension spring is connected between the free ends of the two clamps. Thus, when the cover 20 slides into the transition channel 510, under the pushing action of the blocking member 522 and the clamping action of the clamping member 523, the cover 20 is fixed at the output end of the transition channel 510. When the conveyor belt 200 transports the box 10 to the bottom of the transition channel 510, the box 10 pushes the blocking member 522 forward, causing the blocking member 522 to flip upward. At this time, the cover 20 loses the restriction of the blocking member 522 and falls onto the box 10. Driven by the box 10, the cover 20 moves to the right until it is freed from the clamping member 523 and completely covers the upper end of the box 10.
[0051] It should be noted that, under the action of the clamping member 523, covers 20 of different sizes can be output along the centerline of the transition channel 510, which makes them easy to adjust and reconfigure, and helps to quickly adapt to different production needs and changes.
[0052] In some specific embodiments of this utility model, the covering mechanism 500 further includes a second guide 530, which is disposed at the output end of the transition channel 510 and is used to guide the cover 20 from the fourth conveying channel 410 into the transition channel 510.
[0053] like Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, the transition channel 510 is provided with a second guide 530. In this specific embodiment, the second guide 530 is an upwardly bent guide plate. The right end of the guide plate is connected to the third transport channel 330 located at the rightmost end. Thus, the cover 20 output from the output end of the fourth transport channel can maintain the correct position and direction when entering the transition channel 510 under the guidance of the second guide 530, preventing the box 10 from falling off the track and outside the equipment.
[0054] In some specific embodiments of this utility model, the pressing mechanism 600 includes: a pressing component 610, which is disposed on the frame 100 and located above the conveyor belt 200, and is used to press the cover 20 onto the box body 10; and an adjusting component 620, which is disposed on the frame 100 and is used to adjust the distance between the pressing component 610 and the conveyor belt 200.
[0055] like Figure 1 and Figure 5 As shown, the pressing assembly 610 is a fifth conveyor belt, which extends in the left-right direction. Its lower end is parallel to the conveyor belt 200 and operates in the same direction as the conveyor belt 200. The distance between the fifth conveyor belt and the conveyor belt 200 corresponds to the box 10 covered with the cover 20. When the covering mechanism 500 covers the box 10 with the cover 20, the conveyor belt 200 transports the box 10 to below the fifth conveyor belt. Since the left end of the fifth conveyor belt is a pivot for driving the track rotation, it forms a natural transition component. As the box 10 is pushed deeper, the fifth conveyor belt can gradually press the cover 20 onto the box 10. After assembly, the fifth conveyor belt and the conveyor belt 200 cooperate to clamp the product to the right.
[0056] It should be noted that the adjustment component 620 includes a slide rail and a slider that is movably mounted on the slide rail. The fifth conveyor belt is mounted on the slider. By adjusting the position of the slider on the slide rail, the distance between the fifth conveyor belt and the conveyor belt 200 can be adjusted, thereby further adapting to different production needs and changes.
[0057] The embodiments of the present utility model have been described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the present utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. Within the scope of knowledge possessed by those skilled in the art, various changes can be made without departing from the spirit of the present utility model.
