Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of capping machine testing technology, specifically to an additional pressing device for capping machine testing. Background Technology
[0002] After bottles are filled by a filling machine, a bottle cap press is often used to ensure the quality of the contents inside the bottle. This is a device specifically designed to seal bottle caps. It applies force or pressure to firmly seal the cap onto the bottle opening, ensuring the product's sealing performance and safety, and preventing leakage, deterioration, or damage from the external environment. To ensure the quality of the cap pressing, the overall height of the cap after pressing also needs to be tested. However, traditional bottle cap pressing tests only have an inspection function. Unqualified products need to be removed and re-capped, which is inefficient. Moreover, when additional pressing is performed, hard pressing is often used, which can easily deform the cap or bottle body. Utility Model Content
[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide an additional pressing device for testing a capping machine, so as to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.
[0004] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: an additional pressing device for testing a capping machine, comprising a testing platform with a conveyor trough, wherein a conveyor belt for transporting bottles is provided inside the conveyor trough, and further comprising...
[0005] The pressure column structure includes a column fixed to one side of the testing platform, and a movable sleeve that moves up and down is installed on the outside of the column via a screw. A cylinder for fixing the position of the bottle is also installed in the vertical groove at the top of the testing platform, and a clamp is connected to the output end of the cylinder.
[0006] The pressure block assembly is installed at the bottom of the crossbar on one side of the movable sleeve. The pressure block assembly has a pressure plate for additional pressing inside the pressure groove at the bottom of the pressure block. An airbag ring is arranged in a ring on the inner wall of the pressure groove outside the pressure plate. An infrared probe is arranged at the center of the bottom of the pressure plate.
[0007] Furthermore, the pressurizing column structure also includes two air cylinders arranged side by side inside the pressure block. A piston is installed inside the air cylinder, and a connecting rod is installed on one side of the piston. The other end of the connecting rod extends to the inside of the pressure groove and connects to the pressure plate.
[0008] Furthermore, a spring is fixedly connected between the pressure plate on the outside of the connecting rod and the pressure groove, and a protective pad is evenly laid on the bottom of the pressure plate.
[0009] Furthermore, the end of the air cylinder furthest from the piston is connected to a conduit, and the other end of the conduit passes through the pressure block and is connected to the airbag ring.
[0010] Furthermore, an adjustment groove is provided on one side of the column, and the lead screw is disposed inside the adjustment groove. A drive motor is also installed on the top of the column, and the drive shaft of the drive motor is connected to one end of the lead screw.
[0011] Furthermore, an air pump is installed on the support frame at the bottom of the testing platform, and the output end of the air pump is fixedly connected to two connecting pipes, which are respectively connected to the input ends of two cylinders.
[0012] Furthermore, the clamp has a "C" shaped structure, and the clamp matches the curvature of the bottle.
[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: This capping machine inspection and additional pressing device integrates the detection and additional pressing pressure block assembly into one unit. It can promptly add additional pressing after detecting unqualified bottle caps, saving the time of removing the bottle body and then adding additional pressing in a concentrated manner. The additional pressing work is completed during the conveying process of the bottle body, which improves the processing efficiency compared with the existing device. In use, the drive motor drives the lead screw to rotate and realize the descent of the pressure block assembly. The lead screw transmission runs smoothly and will not produce impact. When the pressure plate contacts the bottle cap, the pressure plate begins to extend and retract into the groove. At this time, the spring continuously contracts. This process is a buffering process, which can make the pressing of the bottle cap have a certain buffering effect. The soft pressure additional pressing form is not easy to deform the bottle cap or bottle body. In addition, when the bottle cap moves upward against the pressure plate, the connecting rod drives the piston to compress the air inside the air cylinder and transmits it to the air bladder ring through the conduit. The expanded air bladder ring wraps around the bottle cap, which facilitates the squeezing and fixing of the bottle cap position. In conjunction with the cylinder driving the clamping plate to fix the bottle body, the stability of the bottle body is further improved, ensuring the effect of additional pressing.

Detailed Implementation
[0019] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present utility model without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present utility model.
[0020] Please see Figure 1-4 This utility model provides an embodiment of an additional pressing device for testing a capping machine, including a testing platform 1 with a conveyor trough 101, the inside of which is provided a conveyor belt 9 for transporting bottles 10, and further including...
[0021] The pressure column structure 4 includes a column 403 fixed to one side of the test platform 1, and an movable sleeve 5 that moves up and down is installed on the outside of the column 403 via a screw 402. A cylinder 8 for fixing the position of the bottle 10 is also installed in the vertical groove 102 at the top of the test platform 1. The output end of the cylinder 8 is connected to a clamping plate 801.
[0022] The cylinder 8 pushes the clamping plate 801 to clamp and fix the bottle body 10.
[0023] The pressure block assembly 6 is installed at the bottom of the crossbar 501 on one side of the movable sleeve 5. The pressure block assembly 6 has a pressure plate 603 for additional pressing inside the pressure groove 606 at the bottom of the pressure block 6010. An airbag ring 605 is arranged in a ring on the inner wall of the pressure groove 606 outside the pressure plate 603. An infrared probe 604 is arranged at the center of the bottom of the pressure plate 603.
[0024] Infrared probe 604 detects each bottle 10 individually. The height of the bottles 10 after the cap is tightened is consistent. When a bottle 10 is detected to be at a different distance, it indicates that the cap of that bottle 10 is not tightly closed, thus achieving the detection effect.
[0025] The pressurized column structure 4 also includes two air cylinders 601 arranged in parallel inside the pressure block 6010. A piston 609 is provided inside the air cylinder 601, and a connecting rod 608 is provided on one side of the piston 609. The other end of the connecting rod 608 extends to the inside of the pressure groove 606 and connects to the pressure plate 603.
[0026] A spring 602 is fixedly connected between the pressure plate 603 on the outside of the connecting rod 608 and the pressure groove 606, and a protective pad is evenly laid on the bottom of the pressure plate 603.
[0027] The end of the air cylinder 601 away from the piston 609 is connected to a conduit 607, and the other end of the conduit 607 passes through the pressure block 6010 and is connected to the airbag ring 605.
[0028] The bottle cap moves upward against the pressure plate 603. At this time, the connecting rod 608 drives the piston 609 to move inside the air cylinder 601, and transmits the compressed air inside the air cylinder 601 to the air bag ring 605 through the conduit 607, causing the air bag ring 605 to expand. The expanded air bag ring 605 is convenient for assisting in squeezing and fixing the position of the bottle cap, further improving the stability of the additional bottle cap.
[0029] An adjustment groove 401 is provided on one side of the column 403, and a lead screw 402 is located inside the adjustment groove 401. A drive motor 7 is also installed on the top of the column 403, and the drive shaft of the drive motor 7 is connected to one end of the lead screw 402.
[0030] In use, the drive motor 7 drives the lead screw 402 to rotate, and the movable sleeve 5 moves up and down on the lead screw 402 under the action of the thread, thereby driving the pressure block assembly 6 to adjust its height up and down.
[0031] An air pump 2 is installed on the support frame 3 at the bottom of the testing platform 1, and the output end of the air pump 2 is fixedly connected to two connecting pipes 201, which are respectively connected to the input ends of two cylinders 8.
[0032] The clamp 801 has a "C" shaped structure, and the clamp 801 matches the curvature of the bottle body 10.
[0033] When in use, the air pump 2 starts and transmits pressure to the cylinder 8 through the connecting pipe 201. The cylinder 8 pushes the clamping plate 801 to clamp and fix the bottle 10. The "C"-shaped structure clamping plate 801 with matching curvature can better contact the bottle 10 and ensure the stability of clamping.
[0034] In this embodiment, during use, the conveyor belt 9 transports the bottles 10 within the conveyor trough 101. Each bottle 10 passes under the pressure block assembly 6. The infrared sensor 604 detects each passing bottle 10. The height of the bottles 10 after the cap is tightened is consistent. When a bottle 10 is detected to be at a different distance, it indicates that the cap of that bottle 10 is not properly closed. At this point, the conveyor belt 9 stops, and the bottle 10 is positioned directly below the pressure block assembly 6. The air pump 2 starts and transmits pressure to the cylinder 8 through the connecting pipe 201. The cylinder 8 pushes the clamping plate 801 to clamp and fix the bottle 10. The drive motor 7 drives the lead screw 402 to rotate. Under the action of the thread, the movable sleeve 5 moves the pressure block assembly 6 downwards, and the bottle... The bottle cap 10 enters the interior of the pressure groove 606 and contacts the pressure plate 603. The pressure plate 603 continues to move downward, and the bottle cap pushes against the pressure plate 603 and moves upward. At this time, the connecting rod 608 drives the piston 609 to move inside the air cylinder 601, and transmits the compressed air inside the air cylinder 601 to the air bag ring 605 through the conduit 607, causing the air bag ring 605 to expand. The expanded air bag ring 605 facilitates the squeezing and fixing of the bottle cap position. When the pressure plate 603 moves to the top of the pressure groove 606, the movable sleeve 5 drives the pressure block assembly 6 to continue to move downward to apply pressure until the bottle cap and bottle body 10 are pressed together. The drive motor 7 drives the lead screw 402 to rotate in the opposite direction, and the movable sleeve 5 drives the pressure block assembly 6 to move upward to the preset height for continued testing.
