[0002] The product of the existing penicillin bottle with supporting into box generally adopts the mode of directly grabbing or sucking paper support, and the penicillin bottle and paper support are loaded into paper box together. This requires that the paper support has larger outer dimension, complex structure and certain supporting strength, and puts forward quite high requirements on the material and manufacturing process of paper support. At present, paper support occupies a large space in the box, which leads to the synchronous increase of the size of paper box, and greatly increases the cost of product packaging.

[0020] The technical scheme of the utility model will be described clearly and completely in combination with the drawings. In the description of the utility model, it should be explained that the orientation or position relationship indicated by the terms "center", "upper", "lower", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "inner", "outer" and the like is the orientation or position relationship shown in the drawings, and is only for the convenience of describing the utility model and simplifying the description, and cannot be understood as indicating or implying that the indicated device or element must have a specific orientation, a specific orientation and operation, and therefore cannot be understood as a limitation on the utility model. In addition, the terms "first", "second", "third" are only for the purpose of description, and cannot be understood as indicating or implying the importance of the opposite.

[0021] The utility model will be further described in combination with the drawings.

[0022] As Figures 1-3 shown, a bottle grabbing structure with a paper tray includes a mold 4, a suction assembly, and a quick release mechanism 6; two guide grooves 7 are formed in the lower end surface of the mold 4, the suction assembly is arranged in the guide grooves 7, and is used for suction of a penicillin bottle and a paper tray; and the quick release mechanism 6 is connected to the upper end of the mold 4, and is used for quick connection with a driving part.

[0023] Specifically, the suction assembly includes a plurality of bottle suction discs 1 and a plurality of paper tray suction discs 5; the plurality of bottle suction discs 1 are respectively connected in the two guide grooves 7 of the lower end surface of the mold 4 at equal distances; and the plurality of paper tray suction discs 5 are connected to the lower end surface of the mold 4 at equal distances. The plurality of bottle suction discs 1 and the plurality of paper tray suction discs 5 are both connected with a vacuum pump. The lower end of the guide groove 7 is provided in a circular arc shape, and is connected with a bottle neck clamping ring 8. The guide groove 7 can guide without damaging the bottle head, and after the suction disc sucks the bottle, the circular arc of the bottle neck clamping ring 8 clamps the circular arc of the bottle neck, so as to ensure that the bottle body is stable and does not shake, and the greater the deformation of the suction disc, the tighter the bottle is grabbed.

[0024] Specifically, the mold 4 is made of polyoxymethylene plastic material. It has excellent rigidity and wear resistance, and can effectively ensure the service life of the mold; at the same time, the plastic material has lower density and lighter weight than the aluminum mold, which reduces the load inertia of the mechanical hand, and can effectively improve the speed of the bottle grabbing structure.

[0025] Specifically, the penicillin bottle 2 is placed in the paper tray 3, the vacuum pump is started, and the plurality of bottle suction discs 1 are driven to suck the upper end of the penicillin bottle 2; the paper tray suction disc 5 sucks the paper tray 3, so that the penicillin bottle 2 and the paper tray 3 will not fall off during the transfer process; after the transfer is completed, the vacuum pump is turned off, and the release of the bottle and the paper tray is completed.

[0026] Specifically, by sucking only the bottle neck position of the penicillin bottle 2 through the bottle suction disc 1, the entire bottle body is controlled, and the serious disadvantage of scratching the label by guiding the bottle body in the traditional grabbing is eliminated.

[0027] The bottle grabbing structure with a paper tray includes a mold 4, a suction assembly, and a quick release mechanism 6; two guide grooves 7 are formed in the lower end surface of the mold 4, the suction assembly is arranged in the guide grooves 7, and is used for suction of a penicillin bottle and a paper tray; and the quick release mechanism 6 is connected to the upper end of the mold 4, and is used for quick connection with a driving part.

[0028] As Figure 4As shown, a mechanical arm based on a bottle grabbing structure with a supporting bottle grabbing device comprises a mechanical arm body 9, an output end of the mechanical arm body 9 is connected with a fixed plate 10, and two ends of the fixed plate 10 are respectively connected with a mold 4. The mold 4 is connected with the fixed plate 10 through a quick release mechanism 6 at an upper end, and different bottle bodies can be adapted by replacing the mold 4 with different sizes.

[0029] Specifically, the quick release mechanism 6 can be an L-shaped knob block, a limiting groove is formed in the fixed plate 10, and the quick connection of the two is completed by rotating the L-shaped knob block into the limiting groove.

[0030] In another embodiment, the quick release mechanism 6 can be an electromagnet, and the electromagnet is connected with the fixed plate 10 by being electrified to generate magnetism.

[0031] In another embodiment, the quick release mechanism 6 can also be a quick release screw, and the two are connected by penetrating the fixed plate 10 with the quick release screw to connect the mold 4.

[0032] The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present application, but not to limit them; although the present application has been described in detail with reference to the above embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that the technical solutions recorded in the above embodiments can still be modified, or some or all of the technical features can be replaced equivalently; and these modifications or replacements do not make the essence of the corresponding technical solutions deviate from the scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present application.
