[0023] Example: A blister cup lid sorting device, such as Figure 1 - Figure 4 As shown, the device includes a frame 1, which is a metal frame. A separating hopper 2 is mounted on the upper part of the frame 1. The separating hopper 2 is an inclined hollow shell. Mounting seats 3, made of rigid metal plates, are located at the four corners of the upper part of the frame 1. The lower ends of the mounting seats 3 are fixedly connected to the frame 1. A telescopic spring 4 is mounted on the upper part of the mounting seat 3, with its lower end fixedly connected to the mounting seat 3 and its upper end fixedly connected to the separating hopper 2.

A vibration motor is located at the lower end of the separating hopper 2, and the vibration motor is connected to the separating hopper 2 by bolts. The hopper 2 is fixedly connected, and the vibration motor is linearly connected to an external power source through a wire. The vibration motor can drive the separating hopper 2 to vibrate, which facilitates the discharge of the blister cup lids inside the separating hopper 2. A cup lid guide groove 7 is provided at one end of the separating hopper 2 near the cup lid outlet 6. The cup lid guide groove 7 is inclined and one end is fixedly connected to the separating hopper 2 by bolts. A separation mechanism 8 is provided at one end of the outer side of the cup lid guide groove 7. One end of the separation mechanism 8 extends into the cup lid guide groove 7. The separation mechanism 8 can separate the plastic cup lids inside the cup lid guide groove 7 to prevent the plastic cup lids from stacking together during the discharge process. Two sets of guide plates 9 are provided inside the separating hopper 2 near the cup lid outlet 6. The two sets of guide plates 9 are symmetrically installed at both ends of the cup lid outlet 6. The guide plates 9 are arc-shaped guide strips, and one end of the guide plates 9 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the separating hopper 2.
[0024] Furthermore, the separation mechanism 8 includes a fixing plate 10, which is installed at the lower end of the cup lid guide channel 7. The upper end of the fixing plate 10 is fixedly connected to the cup lid guide channel 7. A drive motor 11 is provided at one end of the outer side of the fixing plate 10. The drive motor 11 is fixedly connected to the fixing plate 10 by bolts and is linearly connected to an external power source through wires. A rotating block 12 is provided at the end of the fixing plate 10 away from the drive motor 11. The rotating block 12 is an elliptical hard block. One end of the rotating block 12 is connected to... The output end of the drive motor 11 is eccentrically connected, and one end of the rotating block 12 is fixedly connected to the drive motor 11. The output end of the drive motor 11 can drive the rotating block 12 to rotate. The distances between the two sides of the rotating block 12 and the center of the rotating block 12 are different. A toggle bracket 13 is provided on the upper end of the rotating block 12. The toggle bracket 13 is a U-shaped rigid strip. One end of the toggle bracket 13 is movably connected to the cup lid guide groove 7 through a rotating shaft. The lower end of the toggle bracket 13 is in contact with the rotating block 12. The toggle bracket 13 is close to the cup lid guide groove 7. One end of the actuating frame 13 is provided with a first connecting bar 14, which is a rigid strip rod. One end of the first connecting bar 14 is fixedly connected to the actuating frame 13 by bolts. A blocking frame 15 is provided at the lower end of the first connecting bar 14. The upper end of the blocking frame 15 is fixedly connected to the first connecting bar 14, and the lower end of the blocking frame 15 extends into the cup lid guide groove 7 and contacts the bottom surface of the inner wall of the cup lid guide groove 7. A second connecting bar 16 is provided at the lower end of the actuating frame 13 near the feed end. The second connecting bar 16 is made of rigid metal. The second connecting strip 16 is fixedly connected to the actuating frame 13 at one end. The upper end of the second connecting strip 16 is provided with a limiting baffle 17, which is a rigid metal baffle. The lower end of the limiting baffle 17 is fixedly connected to the second connecting strip 16. The upper end of the limiting baffle 17 extends through the cup lid guide groove 7 and into the guide groove of the cup lid guide groove 7. The upper end of the limiting baffle 17 is flush with the bottom surface inside the cup lid guide groove 7. A gap is reserved between the limiting baffle 17 and the blocking frame 15 to allow a blister cup lid to pass through.
[0025] Furthermore, the baffle assembly 5 includes a fixing strip 18, which is a rigid strip. Both ends of the fixing strip 18 are fixedly connected to the inner wall of the separating hopper 2. An adjusting rod 19 is provided in the center of the fixing strip 18. The adjusting rod 19 is installed perpendicular to the fixing strip 18 and is threadedly connected to the fixing strip 18. The lower end of the adjusting rod 19 extends into the interior of the separating hopper 2. A baffle plate 20 is provided at the lower end of the adjusting rod 19. The baffle plate 20 is a rigid plate. The upper end of the baffle plate 20 is movably connected to the adjusting rod 19. A gap is reserved between the lower end of the baffle plate 20 and the bottom surface of the inner wall of the separating hopper 2 for the passage of the blister cup lid.
[0026] It should be noted that this utility model is a blister cup lid sorting device. In use, first rotate the adjusting rod 19. The adjusting rod 19, while rotating, drives the baffle plate 20 to rise and fall, adjusting the distance between the baffle plate 20 and the bottom surface of the separating hopper 2 to match the height of the cup lid. Then, pour the blister cup lid into the upper end of the baffle assembly 5 inside the separating hopper 2. Then, start the vibration motor at the lower end of the separating hopper 2. The vibration motor drives the separating hopper 2 to move, and the cup lid inside the separating hopper 2 will pass through the lower end of the baffle plate 20, be guided by the guide plate 9, and be discharged through the cup lid outlet 6, falling into the cup lid guide groove 7. During the discharge process in the cup lid guide groove 7, start the power supply to the drive motor 11. The output end of 11 drives the rotating block 12 to rotate. When the rotating block 12 rotates to its maximum diameter end, it pushes the actuating frame 13 to rotate upward. During rotation, the actuating frame 13 pushes the limiting baffle 17 at the upper end of the second connecting bar 16 to move upward. During this movement, the limiting baffle 17 inserts into the cup lid guide groove 7 to separate the blister cup lid, ensuring that only one blister cup lid can be accommodated between the limiting baffle 17 and the blocking frame 15. During rotation, the actuating frame 13 drives the blocking frame 15 to move upward via the first connecting bar 14. During this movement, the blocking frame 15 opens the gap between itself and the cup lid guide groove 7, allowing the blister cup lid between the blocking frame 15 and the limiting baffle 17 to be discharged along the cup lid guide groove 7. By setting the separation mechanism 8, the blister cup lid can be separated during the cup lid discharge process, preventing multiple cup lids from being discharged and avoiding excessive discharge that could affect the efficiency of the operator. By setting the baffle assembly 5, the cup lids can be initially screened to prevent them from stacking together. By setting the guide plate 9, the blister cup lids can be guided to the cup lid outlet 6 to prevent them from accumulating inside the separating hopper 2.
