Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of milk powder can transportation, and in particular to a screw conveyor line for milk powder cans. Background Technology

[0002] A milk powder can conveyor line is a supporting equipment for conveying and inspecting milk powder cans. During the conveying of milk powder cans, it is often necessary to use a camera to detect the QR code on the top or bottom of the can in order to identify the cans and reject unqualified products. With the continuous development of technology, people's requirements for milk powder can screw conveyor lines are also getting higher and higher.

[0003] Existing milk powder can conveyor lines have certain drawbacks. First, existing milk powder can conveyor lines usually use linear guide rails for circulation. However, when performing camera inspection, the circulation distance between milk powder cans varies. Two cans may be close together or too far apart, making it difficult for the camera to capture the image during inspection, resulting in blurry images. This has a certain adverse effect on the actual use process. To address this, we propose a milk powder can screw conveyor line. Utility Model Content

[0004] Technical problem solved: In view of the shortcomings of the existing technology, this utility model provides a milk powder can screw conveyor line, which is equipped with a screw can separating device. The screw assembly separates the milk powder cans on the conveyor line into equal distances and continues to convey them forward. This facilitates camera detection in the next step, reduces the possibility of excessive confusion leading to unclear camera images, and improves detection accuracy. This can effectively solve the problems in the background technology.

[0005] Technical Solution: To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows: a milk powder can screw conveyor line, including a feeding box, a discharging conveyor track, and a screw can-separating device frame. The feeding box is equipped with a feeding conveyor track in the middle. The screw can-separating device frame is installed between the feeding conveyor track and the discharging conveyor track. A support is positioned on the screw can-separating device frame. A fine-tuning seat is movably arranged on the support. A motor frame is installed on the fine-tuning seat. A drive motor is positioned on the outer side of the motor frame. Mounting frames are installed on both sides of the front end of the fine-tuning seat. A screw rod is installed on the inner side of the mounting frame. A rotating shaft is provided between the screw rod and the mounting frame. The milk powder cans are separated at the position of the screw rod after being output from the feeding conveyor track, and finally output from the position of the discharging conveyor track.

[0006] Preferably, a defective product rejection box is installed on the outer side of the feeding conveyor track, a camera bracket is installed on the feeding conveyor track at the rear end of the screw rod, an upper detection camera is installed on the top of the camera bracket above the feeding conveyor track, and a lower detection camera is installed on the bottom of the camera bracket below the feeding conveyor track.

[0007] Preferably, a crank handle is provided at the center of the front end of the support, and a fine-tuning component is connected between the crank handle and the fine-tuning seat. A coupling and a ball clutch are installed on the inner side of the motor frame, a brake drive component is installed on the outer side of the motor frame, a brake disc is installed on the brake drive component, a driven rotating mechanism is installed on the outer side of the mounting bracket, a drive belt is connected between the driven rotating mechanism and the ball clutch, and a front photoelectric mechanism and a rear photoelectric mechanism are provided on the side of the support at the position where the fine-tuning seat moves.

[0008] Preferably, the unloading conveyor track is fixed to the defective product rejection box by bolts, the unloading conveyor track is fixed to the camera bracket by screws, and the camera bracket is fixed to the upper detection camera and the lower detection camera by screws.

[0009] Preferably, the crank handle fine-tunes the position of the fine-tuning seat on the support via the fine-tuning component, the coupling and ball clutch are driven by the drive motor, and the screw rod is driven to rotate uniformly inside the mounting frame via the drive belt and the driven rotation mechanism, and the front photoelectric mechanism and the rear photoelectric mechanism monitor the movement position of the fine-tuning seat and control the drive frequency of the drive motor.

[0010] Preferably, the milk powder cans are output from the feeding conveyor track to the screw can-separating device frame, and the position of the screw is adjusted to ensure that the two sets of milk powder cans have the same distance. After passing the positions of the upper and lower detection cameras, they finally flow out from the unloading conveyor track.

[0011] Beneficial Effects: Compared with the prior art, this utility model provides a milk powder can screw conveyor line with the following beneficial effects: This milk powder can screw conveyor line is equipped with a screw can separating device. The screw assembly separates the milk powder cans on the conveyor line by the same distance and continues to convey them forward. This facilitates camera detection in the next step and reduces the likelihood of excessive confusion leading to unclear camera images, resulting in higher detection accuracy. The milk powder cans are output from the feeding conveyor track to the screw can separating device frame, and the position of the screw is adjusted to ensure that the two groups of milk powder cans have the same distance. After passing the positions of the upper and lower detection cameras, they finally flow out from the unloading conveyor track. The crank handle fine-tunes the fine-tuning seat through the fine-tuning component. At the support, the coupling and ball clutch are driven by a drive motor, and the screw rod is driven to rotate evenly inside the mounting frame via a drive belt and a driven rotating mechanism. The front and rear photoelectric mechanisms monitor the movement position of the fine-tuning seat and control the drive frequency of the drive motor. This allows for the adaptation to different sizes of milk powder cans. When handling small milk powder cans, the fine-tuning seat moves forward until the screw rod touches the milk powder can. At this point, the drive motor speed is approximately 100 rpm. When handling large milk powder cans, the fine-tuning seat moves backward until the screw rod touches the milk powder can. At this point, the drive motor speed is approximately 100 rpm. The entire milk powder can screw conveyor line has a simple structure, is easy to operate, and performs better than traditional methods.

The screw can-separating device separates the milk powder cans on the conveyor line by equal distances using the screw rod assembly, facilitating camera detection in the next step and reducing the likelihood of unclear camera images due to excessive confusion. This results in higher detection accuracy. The milk powder cans are output from the feeding conveyor track 2 to the screw can-separating device frame 3 and pass through the screw rod 14 for further processing. The separation adjustment ensures that the two sets of milk powder cans have the same distance, and after passing the positions of the upper detection camera 9 and the lower detection camera 13, the milk powder flows out from the unloading conveyor track 11.

The front photoelectric mechanism 17 and the rear photoelectric mechanism 18 monitor the movement position of the fine-tuning seat 7 and control the drive frequency of the drive motor 4. It can adapt to different models of milk powder cans. When circulating small milk powder cans, the fine-tuning seat 7 moves forward until the screw rod 14 touches the position of the milk powder can. At this time, the drive speed of the drive motor 4 is about 200 revolutions per minute. When circulating large milk powder cans, the fine-tuning seat 7 moves backward until the screw rod 14 touches the position of the milk powder can. At this time, the drive speed of the drive motor 4 is about 180 revolutions per minute.
