Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of cup lid technology, specifically relating to an integrated automatic assembly and testing device for large straw lids. Background Technology
[0002] During the production of thermos cups, after assembling the cup body and lid, a torque test is required on the assembled thermos cup. This involves applying a torque of 3 N·m to the tightened lid to check for stripped threads. In current technology, the torque test of thermos cup lids is mostly performed manually. The test efficiency is low, and manual testing makes it difficult to accurately control the applied force, resulting in inaccurate test results. Furthermore, after prolonged testing, the tester's hands are prone to soreness, which greatly reduces the testing efficiency. Therefore, there is room for improvement in the existing technology. Utility Model Content
[0003] The purpose of this utility model is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by proposing an integrated automatic assembly and testing device for large straw caps.
[0004] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides an integrated automatic assembly and testing device for large straw caps, including a support frame, a support base fixedly connected to the inner side of the support frame, a first clamping mechanism for fixing the cup body fixedly installed in the support base, a rotating mechanism provided on the support frame, the rotating mechanism including a motor fixedly installed on the support frame, a fixed frame fixedly connected to the output end of the motor, and a second clamping mechanism provided under the fixed frame;
[0005] The second clamping mechanism is used to clamp the straw cap.
[0006] In the above technical solution, the second clamping mechanism further includes clamping arms symmetrically fixed on the fixed frame, a pressing plate slidably connected to the clamping arm, a contact plate fixedly connected to one side of the pressing plate, an insert block inserted through and slidably connected to the clamping arm, a first wedge block fixedly connected to the top of the insert block, a second wedge block fixedly connected to one side of the pressing plate, and the second wedge block is adapted to the inclined surface of the first wedge block, and a locking mechanism is provided on the first wedge block.
[0007] In the above technical solution, the locking mechanism further includes a fixed sleeve fixedly connected to the inner side of the clamping arm, and a first wedge block is inserted and slidably connected to the fixed sleeve. An elastic block is fixedly connected inside the fixed sleeve, and a uniformly distributed protrusion is fixedly connected on the elastic block. A uniformly distributed locking block is fixedly connected to one side of the first wedge block, and the protrusion and the locking block abut against each other.
[0008] In the above technical solution, the card block and the protrusion are arranged in an overlapping manner.
[0009] In the above technical solution, further, electric push rods are symmetrically installed on the support base, an electromagnet is fixedly connected to the output end of the electric push rod, a magnetic mating plate is fixedly connected to the bottom of the insert block, guide rods are symmetrically fixed on the extrusion plate, and the guide rods are inserted into the clamping arms and slidably connected, a return spring is sleeved on the guide rod, and the other end of the return spring is fixed on the clamping arm.
[0010] In the above technical solution, the first clamping mechanism further includes a drive motor, a screw, and symmetrically distributed moving blocks and clamping blocks.
[0011] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0012] Under the pull of the return spring, the second wedge block is tightly attached to the first wedge block. Therefore, the upward-moving inclined surface of the first wedge block will push the extrusion plate to one side, thereby contacting the cup lid and finally forming a fixed clamping on the straw lid. During the process, the locking block on the first wedge block will continuously squeeze the protrusion and deform the protrusion so that the locking block can be progressively misaligned between the upper protrusions. When the first wedge block stops moving, the protrusion uses its own elasticity to lock and support the locking block, which provides a locking force for the first wedge block, so that it maintains the extrusion plate and thus maintains the fixed effect on the straw lid. With the above design, no manual testing is required. After the electromagnet is de-energized, the motor can drive the straw lid to rotate to test whether the threads of the cup lid are stripped. After directly testing the straw lid and the cup body, the straw lid and the cup body can be directly assembled together without reassembly. Attached Figure Description

[0018] To better understand the above-mentioned objectives, features and advantages of this utility model, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.
[0019] like Figures 1-4The illustrated integrated automatic assembly and testing device for large straw caps includes a support frame 1, a support base 2 fixedly connected to the inner side of the support frame 1, and a first clamping mechanism 3 for fixing the cup body fixedly installed inside the support base 2. The first clamping mechanism 3 includes a drive motor, a screw, and symmetrically distributed moving blocks and clamping blocks. A rotating mechanism is provided on the support frame 1, including a motor 5 fixedly installed on the support frame 1. A fixed frame 6 is fixedly connected to the output end of the motor 5. A second clamping mechanism is provided below the fixed frame 6 for clamping the straw cap. The second clamping mechanism includes clamping arms 7 symmetrically fixed on the fixed frame 6. A pressing plate 12 is slidably connected to the clamping arm 7, and a contact plate 14 is fixedly connected to one side of the pressing plate 12. A through-mounted and sliding clamping arm 7 is also provided. A movable connection is provided with an insert block 10, and a first wedge block 11 is fixedly connected to the top of the insert block 10. A second wedge block 13 is fixedly connected to one side of the extrusion plate 12, and the second wedge block 13 is adapted to the inclined surface of the first wedge block 11. A locking mechanism is provided on the first wedge block 11, which includes a fixed sleeve 17 fixedly connected to the inner side of the clamping arm 7. The first wedge block 11 is inserted and slidably connected to the fixed sleeve 17. An elastic block 18 is fixedly connected inside the fixed sleeve 17. Evenly distributed protrusions 19 are fixedly connected to the elastic block 18. Evenly distributed locking blocks 20 are fixedly connected to one side of the first wedge block 11, and the protrusions 19 and the locking blocks 20 abut against each other. Electric push rods 4 are symmetrically installed on the support base 2, and an electromagnet 8 is fixedly connected to the output end of the electric push rod 4. A magnetic mating plate 9 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the insert block 10. Guide rods 15 are symmetrically fixed on the extrusion plate 12, and the guide rods 15 are inserted into and slidably connected to the clamping arm 7. A return spring 16 is sleeved on the guide rod 15, and the other end of the return spring 16 is fixed to the clamping arm 7. After the user loads the straw cap and the cup body together, the locking block 20 and the protrusion 19 are arranged crosswise. After placing the straw cap on the cup body, the two are placed on the support base 2. Then, the first clamping mechanism 3 fixes and clamps the cup body. At this time, the electric push rod 4 drives the electromagnet 8 to move upward and energizes the electromagnet 8 to generate magnetism. After the electromagnet 8 contacts the magnetic mating plate 9, the magnetic force locks the two firmly. At this time, the electric push rod 4 will push the first wedge block 11 upward through the insert block 10. Under the pull of the return spring 16, the second wedge block 13 is tightly attached to the first wedge block 11. Therefore, the upward-moving inclined surface of the first wedge block 11 will push the extrusion plate 12 to one side, thereby contacting the cup lid and ultimately forming a fixed clamping on the straw lid. During the process, the locking block 20 on the first wedge block 11 will continuously squeeze the protrusion 19, and cause the protrusion 19 to deform so that the locking block 20 can advance and misalign between the upper protrusion 19. When the first wedge block 11 stops moving, the protrusion 19 uses its own elasticity to lock and support the locking block 20, which provides a locking force for the first wedge block 11, so that it maintains the extrusion plate 12, thus maintaining the fixed effect on the straw lid. With the above design, no manual testing is required. After the electromagnet 8 is de-energized,Motor 5 can rotate the straw lid to test for stripped threads. After testing, the straw lid and cup body can be directly assembled together without further reassembly.
[0020] Working principle:
[0021] After placing the straw cap onto the cup body, both are placed on the support base 2. The first clamping mechanism 3 then secures the cup body. At this time, the electric push rod 4 drives the electromagnet 8 to move upwards and energizes it to generate magnetism. After the electromagnet 8 contacts the magnetic mating plate 9, the magnetic force firmly locks the two together. The electric push rod 4 then pushes the first wedge block 11 upwards via the insert block 10. Under the pull of the return spring 16, the second wedge block 13 tightly adheres to the first wedge block 11. Therefore, the inclined surface of the upward-moving first wedge block 11 pushes the squeezing plate 12 to one side, thus contacting the cup cap and ultimately forming a fixed clamp on the straw cap. During this process, the locking block 2 on the first wedge block 11... The 0 will continuously squeeze the protrusion 19 and deform the protrusion 19 so that the locking block 20 can advance and misalign between the protrusion 19 above. When the first wedge block 11 stops moving, the protrusion 19 uses its own elasticity to lock and support the locking block 20, which provides a locking force for the first wedge block 11, so that it maintains the pressure on the squeezing plate 12, thus maintaining the fixing effect on the straw cover. With the above design, no manual testing is required. After the electromagnet 8 is de-energized, the motor 5 can drive the straw cover to rotate to test whether the threads of the cup cover are stripped. After directly testing the straw cover and the cup body, the straw cover and the cup body can be directly assembled together without reassembly.
