[0002] In recent years, the pharmaceutical industry has developed rapidly, and the scale of enterprises has been continuously expanded. Comprehensive updating of packaging machinery and equipment is the general trend of development. Drug packaging is the use of appropriate materials or containers and packaging technology to perform operations such as division (filling), sealing, packaging, and labeling on semi-finished or finished products of pharmaceutical preparations. The packaging of tablet medicines is mostly in medicine bottles, and the bottle body and the bottle cap are produced separately. After the production of the bottle cap is completed, the bottle cap needs to be transported to the upper part of the bottle body conveying belt and installed with the bottle body.

[0003] The bottle cap elevator is a lifting device commonly used in the pharmaceutical packaging industry. The operator places the produced bottle cap in the storage box, and the bottle cap is lifted to the bottle cap conveying path through the conveying mechanism in the storage box and installed with the bottle body at the discharge port of the bottle body conveying belt. However, when the bottle caps in the storage box are relatively few and distributed dispersedly, the bottle caps that can be placed at the feeding end of the conveying mechanism are relatively reduced. Therefore, the number of bottle caps lifted to the discharge port of the bottle body conveying belt is reduced, the frequency of installation with the bottle body is reduced, the installation speed of the bottle cap and the bottle body is reduced, and the production efficiency of the pharmaceutical packaging is reduced.

[0004] According to the related technology in the above, the inventors believe that there is a defect that when the bottle caps in the storage box are relatively few and distributed dispersedly, the bottle caps that can be placed at the feeding end of the conveying mechanism are relatively reduced. Therefore, the number of bottle caps lifted to the discharge port of the bottle body conveying belt is reduced, the frequency of installation with the bottle body is reduced, the installation speed of the bottle cap and the bottle body is reduced, and the production efficiency of the pharmaceutical packaging is reduced.

When the bottle cap in the storage box 1 is less and is distributed dispersedly, the bottle cap is collected and pushed into the area range of the material pushing module 3, that is, the feeding direction of the conveying mechanism 2, through the material pushing module 4, and is pushed to the conveying mechanism 2 through the material pushing piece 33, so that the number of the bottle cap on the conveying mechanism 2 is ensured, and the installation frequency of the bottle body at the discharge port of the bottle cap and the bottle body conveying belt is ensured when the bottle cap in the storage box 1 is less, through the double action of the material pushing module 3 and the material pushing module 4, the installation speed of the bottle cap and the bottle body is improved, and the production efficiency of the medicine package is improved. The conveying belt 22 in the storage box 1 is arranged in an arc shape through the excess roller 213. The arc-shaped conveying belt 22 is beneficial to pushing the bottle cap in the storage box 1 and placing the bottle cap on the conveying belt 22, improves the number of the bottle cap conveyed by the conveying belt 22, further improves the mutual installation frequency between the bottle body and the bottle cap, and improves the production efficiency of the medicine. In the conveying state of the conveying mechanism 2, a plurality of bottle caps in the overlapping state can be blocked and fallen into the storage box 1 through the blocking plate 222. The bottle cap on the material carrying plate 221 below the limiting rod 223 is pushed into the material guide channel 23 under the action of the limiting rod 223. The bottle cap in the material guide channel 23 falls into the storage box 1 due to the self-weight of the reversed cap state. The whole bottle cap lifting machine can realize automation, ensures the lifting number of the bottle cap, and further ensures and improves the installation frequency of the bottle cap and the bottle body, and improves the production efficiency of the medicine.

[0059] The above are preferred embodiments of the application, and do not limit the protection scope of the application. Therefore, any equivalent changes made on the basis of the structure, shape and principle of the application should be covered by the protection scope of the application.
