Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to an embryo-retrieving structure for a preform separation device. Background Technology

[0002] Plastic bottles are common containers in daily life. The common method of manufacturing plastic bottles is to blow-form test tube-shaped preforms into bottles with a predetermined shape. Current blow molding equipment includes a preform feeding device, a heating device, a blow molding device, and a bottle ejection device. These devices are connected in series by a conveyor track. The preform is first transferred to the conveyor track by the preform feeding device. Then, the preform is heated and softened by the heating device, blow-formed by the blow molding device, and finally removed as a finished product by the bottle ejection device.

[0003] To reduce heat loss and maximize the heat utilization rate of the heating device, the preforms are heated with the smallest possible spacing between them. To improve production efficiency, several cavities are usually set in the mold of the blow molding device to blow and pull several preforms simultaneously. Since the required spacing between the cavities in the mold is relatively large, the spacing between the preforms needs to be changed before they are fed into the mold so that the spacing between the preforms corresponds to the spacing between the cavities in the mold. Therefore, a structure for preform separation, feeding, and unloading is needed to meet the above functional requirements. Summary of the Invention

[0004] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, the purpose of this invention is to provide an embryo-retrieving structure for a preform separation device.

[0005] The technical solution adopted by this utility model to solve its technical problem is:

[0006] A preform retrieval structure for a preform separation device includes a needle-dispensing preform separation device, a preform retrieval structure fixedly installed in conjunction with the needle-dispensing preform separation device, a preform located inside the preform retrieval structure and conveyed by the needle-dispensing preform separation device, and a preform chuck for feeding the preform into the preform retrieval structure. The preform retrieval structure includes a support leg, a first preform retrieval frame fixedly installed with the support leg, a second preform retrieval frame fixedly installed with the needle-dispensing preform separation device and arranged parallel to the first preform retrieval frame, and a third preform retrieval frame fixedly installed with the needle-dispensing preform separation device and collinear with the second preform retrieval frame.

[0007] Preferably, the part of the support leg that contacts the ground has a groove.

[0008] Preferably, the first preform picker includes an L-shaped steel base fixed to the support leg by bolts, an infeed section fixed to the front end of the L-shaped steel base for inserting preforms in conjunction with the second preform picker, an L-shaped pad steel fixed to the L-shaped steel base for connecting and supporting the preforms, and a preform feeding section fixed to the L-shaped steel base for conveying the preforms in conjunction with the third preform picker.

[0009] Furthermore, the blank-feeding section includes a blank-feeding section bottom plate with the same thickness as the L-shaped pad steel, which is stacked on the upper surface of the L-shaped steel base; a blank-feeding section middle plate with a width smaller than the blank-feeding section bottom plate, which is stacked on the upper surface of the blank-feeding section middle plate; and a blank-feeding section front panel with the same size as the blank-feeding section front panel, which is stacked on the upper surface of the blank-feeding section middle plate. The blank-feeding section bottom plate, the blank-feeding section middle plate, and the blank-feeding section front panel are placed flush on one side, and a groove is formed on the other side due to the small width of the blank-feeding section middle plate.

[0010] Furthermore, the preform feeding section includes an L-shaped preform feeding section bottom plate that is stacked on the upper surface of the L-shaped steel seat and has a width smaller than that of the L-shaped steel seat, and an L-shaped preform feeding section panel that is stacked on the upper surface of the L-shaped preform feeding section bottom plate and has a width consistent with that of the L-shaped steel seat. The thickness of the L-shaped preform feeding section bottom plate is consistent with that of the L-shaped pad steel, which facilitates the preform entering the preform feeding section through the L-shaped pad steel. One side of the L-shaped preform feeding section bottom plate and the L-shaped preform feeding section panel are placed flush, while the other side, due to the small width of the L-shaped preform feeding section bottom plate, forms a groove between the L-shaped preform feeding section panel and the L-shaped steel seat.

[0011] Furthermore, the end of the L-shaped feeding section panel facing the L-shaped pad steel is also inclined upwards and has a feeding section anti-detachment and warping edge.

[0012] Preferably, the second embryo removal frame includes a second embryo removal frame base plate fixedly installed with the embryo removal needle separation device by bolts, a second embryo removal frame intermediate plate stacked on the upper surface of the second embryo removal frame base plate and having a width smaller than the second embryo removal frame base plate, and a second embryo removal frame panel stacked on the upper surface of the second embryo removal frame intermediate plate and having the same size as the second embryo removal frame base plate. The second embryo removal frame base plate, the second embryo removal frame intermediate plate and the second embryo removal frame panel are placed flush on one side, and a groove is formed between the second embryo removal frame base plate and the second embryo removal frame panel on the other side due to the smaller width of the second embryo removal frame intermediate plate.

[0013] Preferably, the third embryo-removing frame includes a third embryo-removing frame base plate that is fixedly installed to the embryo-separating device by bolts and abuts against the second embryo-removing frame, and a third embryo-removing frame panel that is stacked on the upper surface of the third embryo-removing frame base plate. The width of the third embryo-removing frame panel is greater than that of the third embryo-removing frame base plate. The outer side of the third embryo-removing frame panel is flush with the third embryo-removing frame base plate, and the inner side of the third embryo-removing frame panel extends towards the first embryo-removing frame after covering the third embryo-removing frame base plate.

[0014] Furthermore, the end of the third embryo-removing frame panel facing the second embryo-removing frame is also inclined upwards and has a third embryo-removing frame anti-detachment and curling edge.

[0015] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0016] 1. High stability and anti-detachment design: Through the design of anti-detachment and anti-curling edges and clamping grooves, it effectively prevents the preform from falling off, curling up or tilting during the conveying process, ensuring that the preform is stably conveyed to the designated position, reducing the risk of preform damage and production stoppage;

[0017] 2. High adaptability: The adjustable design of the support feet of the preform taking frame and the various preform taking frames (such as adjusting the position of the strip groove) allows the structure to adapt to preforms of different sizes and shapes, enhancing the versatility and flexibility of the equipment and enabling quick switching of production needs for different bottle types.

[0018] 3. High-efficiency preform sorting and conveying: The multi-layered preform picker structure enables multi-point picking and conveying of preforms. Precise coordination between the various pickers ensures smooth preform transport, avoids jamming, and improves production efficiency.

[0019] 4. Precision picking and placing: Through the coordinated operation of the needle-separating device and multiple preform picking frames, the preform picking and placing process is more precise and stable, avoiding damage or misalignment of preforms due to improper operation.

[0024] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments, so that those skilled in the art can better understand the present invention and implement it. However, the embodiments are not intended to limit the present invention.

[0025] Example

[0026] like Figure 1-4As shown, a preform retrieval structure for a preform separation device includes a needle-dispensing preform 1, a preform retrieval structure 2 fixedly installed in conjunction with the needle-dispensing preform 1, a preform 3 located inside the preform retrieval structure 2 and conveyed by the needle-dispensing preform 1, and a preform chuck 4 for feeding the preform 3 into the preform retrieval structure 2.

[0027] The embryo removal structure 2 includes a support foot 21, a first embryo removal frame 22 fixedly installed with the support foot 21, a second embryo removal frame 23 fixedly installed with the needle separating embryo device 1 and arranged parallel to the first embryo removal frame 22, and a third embryo removal frame 24 fixedly installed with the needle separating embryo device 1 and arranged in the same straight line as the second embryo removal frame 23.

[0028] The support foot 21 has a groove 211 at the part that contacts the ground. Specifically, the installation position of the support foot 21 can be adjusted through the groove 211, so that the support foot 21 drives the first preform picker 22 to approach and move away from the second preform picker 23 and the third preform picker 24, which can be used to transport and pick up preforms 3 of different sizes.

[0029] The first preform picker 22 includes an L-shaped steel base 221 fixedly installed to the support leg 21 by bolts, an infeed section 222 fixedly installed to the front end of the L-shaped steel base 221 for inserting preforms in conjunction with the second preform picker 23, an L-shaped pad steel 223 fixedly installed to the L-shaped steel base 221 for connecting and supporting preforms, and a preform feeding section 224 fixedly installed to the L-shaped steel base 221 for conveying preforms in conjunction with the third preform picker 24.

[0030] The preform feeding section 222 includes a preform feeding section bottom plate 2221 with the same thickness as the L-shaped pad steel 223, which is stacked on the upper surface of the L-shaped steel base 221; a preform feeding section middle plate 2222 with a width smaller than the preform feeding section bottom plate 2221, which is stacked on the upper surface of the preform feeding section middle plate 2222; and a preform feeding section panel 2223 with the same size as the preform feeding section panel 2223, which is stacked on the upper surface of the preform feeding section middle plate 2222. The preform feeding section bottom plate 2221, the preform feeding section middle plate 2222, and the preform feeding section panel 2223 are placed flush on one side, and a clamping groove is formed on the other side due to the small width of the preform feeding section middle plate 2222. Specifically, the clamping groove can cooperate with the fin edge of the preform 3. When the preform 3 is fed into the first preform removal frame 22 and the second preform removal frame 23, the preform 3 is separated from the preform chuck 4.

[0031] The preform feeding section 224 includes an L-shaped preform feeding section base plate 2241, which is stacked on the upper surface of the L-shaped steel seat 221 and has a width smaller than that of the L-shaped steel seat 221, and an L-shaped preform feeding section panel 2242, which is stacked on the upper surface of the L-shaped preform feeding section base plate 2241 and has a width consistent with that of the L-shaped steel seat 221. The thickness of the L-shaped preform feeding section base plate 2241 is consistent with that of the L-shaped pad steel 223, facilitating the entry of the preform 3 into the preform feeding section 224 via the L-shaped pad steel 223. Furthermore, one side of the L-shaped preform feeding section bottom plate 2241 and the L-shaped preform feeding section panel 2242 are placed flush with each other. On the other side, due to the small width of the L-shaped preform feeding section bottom plate 2241, a clamping groove is formed between the L-shaped preform feeding section panel 2242 and the L-shaped steel seat 221. Specifically, the clamping groove can cooperate with the fin edge of the preform 3. When the preform 3 is fed into the area of ​​the first preform picker 22 and the third preform picker 24, the preform 3 is separated and transported under the drive of the needle preform separating device 1.

[0032] The L-shaped preform feeding section panel 2242 facing the L-shaped pad steel 223 is also inclined upward and has a preform feeding section anti-detachment and warping edge 22421. Specifically, the preform feeding section anti-detachment and warping edge 22421 can prevent the preform 3 from detaching from the preform feeding section 224.

[0033] The second preform extractor 23 includes a second preform extractor base plate 231 fixedly installed with the preform extractor 1 by bolts, a second preform extractor intermediate plate 232 stacked on the upper surface of the second preform extractor base plate 231 and having a width smaller than the second preform extractor base plate 231, and a second preform extractor panel 233 stacked on the upper surface of the second preform extractor intermediate plate 232 and having the same size as the second preform extractor base plate 231. The second preform extractor base plate 231, the second preform extractor intermediate plate 232 and the second preform extractor panel 233 are placed flush on one side, and a clamping groove is formed between the second preform extractor base plate 231 and the second preform extractor panel 233 on the other side due to the smaller width of the second preform extractor intermediate plate 232. Specifically, the clamping groove can cooperate with the fin edge of the preform 3, so that the preform 3 is separated from the preform chuck 4 when the preform 3 is fed into the first preform extractor 22 and the second preform extractor 23.

[0034] The third preform retrieval frame 24 includes a third preform retrieval frame base plate 241 that is fixedly installed to the needle-dispensing preform device 1 by bolts and abuts against the second preform retrieval frame 23. A third preform retrieval frame panel 242 is stacked on the upper surface of the third preform retrieval frame base plate 241. The width of the third preform retrieval frame panel 242 is greater than that of the third preform retrieval frame base plate 241. The outer side of the third preform retrieval frame panel 242 is flush with the third preform retrieval frame base plate 241. The inner side of the third preform retrieval frame panel 242 covers the third preform retrieval frame base plate 241 and extends towards the first preform retrieval frame 22. Specifically, the third preform retrieval frame panel 242 is used to press down the fins of the preform 3 to prevent the preform 3 from tilting up and detaching from the preform retrieval structure 2. At the same time, since the third preform retrieval frame 24 does not have a clamping groove, the third preform retrieval frame panel 242 cooperates with the needle in the needle-dispensing preform device 1 to support the preform 3 and to transport the preform 3 when the needle is moved.

[0035] The third preform picker panel 242 is also inclined upward at one end facing the second preform picker 23 and is provided with a third preform picker anti-detachment edge 2421. Specifically, the third preform picker anti-detachment edge 2421 can prevent the preform 3 from detaching from the third preform picker 24.

[0036] In this embodiment, the separation of the preform 3 from the preform removal structure 2 is achieved by using an external robotic arm or gripper.

[0037] The above embodiments of this utility model are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this utility model. The implementation of this utility model is not limited thereto. All other modifications, substitutions or alterations made to the above structure of this utility model based on the above content of this utility model and in accordance with the common technical knowledge and conventional means in the field, without departing from the basic technical idea of ​​this utility model, shall fall within the scope of protection of this utility model.
