Detailed Implementation
[0051] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0052] The core of this utility model is to provide a vial desmearing device, which can realize automated feeding and desmearing of vial packs, improve desmearing efficiency, reduce dependence on manual labor, and reduce production costs.
[0053] The vial film removal device provided by this utility model includes a conveying mechanism 1, a film cutting mechanism 2, a film removal mechanism 4, a pushing mechanism 3, a detection element, and a control mechanism. Please refer to [reference needed]. Figure 1 , Figure 2 .
[0054] Taking the vial pack 6 as an example with a rectangular structure, the outer membrane can also be considered a rectangular structure, corresponding to a top, a bottom, and two first sides 61, and may also include two second sides 62. That is, the vial pack 6 may or may not have an outer membrane on the second sides 62. Figure 1 As shown.
[0055] The conveying mechanism 1 is used to transport vial packs 6. Multiple vial packs 6 are transported by the conveying mechanism 1 to carry out subsequent film cutting and film removal processes in sequence, thereby improving work efficiency.
[0056] The conveying mechanism 1 specifically transports the vial pack 6 to the film cutting mechanism 2, which then cuts open the two opposing first sides 61 on the outer film of the vial pack 6. This cutting occurs when the first side 61 of the vial pack 6 contacts the film cutting mechanism 2, causing a tear in the outer film to facilitate subsequent film removal.
[0057] The pushing mechanism 3 is used to transfer the vial material package 6 processed by the film cutting mechanism 2 to the film removal mechanism 4 to wait for the film removal operation.
[0058] Taking one specific embodiment as an example, the film removal mechanism 4 is used to adsorb the top of the outer film, and the bottom of the vial pack 6 is clamped so that the bottom of the outer film does not move. Under the premise that the first side 61 of the outer film of the vial pack 6 has been cut open, the connection between the top and bottom of the outer film can be broken by adsorbing the top of the outer film through the film removal mechanism 4, so that the vial and the outer film are separated, thus realizing the film removal operation of the vial pack 6.
[0059] Taking another specific implementation as an example, the film removal mechanism 4 is used to adsorb the bottom of the outer film. The top of the vial pack 6 is pressed so that the top of the outer film does not move. Under the premise that the first side 61 of the outer film of the vial pack 6 has been cut open, the connection between the top and bottom of the outer film can be broken by adsorbing the bottom of the outer film through the film removal mechanism 4, so that the vial and the outer film are separated, thus realizing the film removal operation of the vial pack 6.
[0060] In another specific embodiment, the membrane removal mechanism 4 is used to adsorb the top and bottom of the outer membrane. That is, the membrane removal mechanism 4 adsorbs the top and bottom of the outer membrane, thereby breaking the connection between the two and separating the vial from the outer membrane, thus realizing the membrane removal operation of the vial pack 6. It should be noted that the membrane removal mechanism 4 is provided with a component for adsorbing the bottom of the outer membrane and a component for adsorbing the top of the outer membrane, and the top and bottom of the outer membrane move in opposite directions.
[0061] In the three specific embodiments described above, after the vial and the outer membrane are separated, the sheet-like structure of the split outer membrane can be transferred by the adsorption or clamping components on the membrane removal mechanism 4, without affecting the subsequent transport of the vial or other process operations.
[0062] The vial film removal device also includes detection elements. Detection elements are installed on the film cutting mechanism 2, the pushing mechanism 3, and the film removal mechanism 4. These detection elements detect the arrival information of the vial pack 6, specifically its arrival at the work station. The detection elements can be photoelectric sensors.
[0063] Taking one specific implementation as an example, when the conveying mechanism 1 moves to transport the vial pack 6 to the position of the film cutting mechanism 2, after the detection element of the film cutting mechanism 2 detects the arrival information of the pack, the control mechanism controls the film cutting mechanism 2 to perform film cutting operation to cut open the first side 61 that is oppositely arranged on the outer film of the vial pack 6.
[0064] Taking one specific implementation as an example, when the conveying mechanism 1 moves to transport the cut-film vial material bag 6 to the position of the pushing mechanism 3, after the detection element of the working station of the pushing mechanism 3 detects the material bag arrival information, the control mechanism controls the pushing mechanism 3 to start the pushing operation to push the cut-film vial material bag 6 to the film removal mechanism 4.
[0065] Taking one specific implementation as an example, after the pushing mechanism 3 pushes the cut-film vial material bag 6 to the position of the film removal mechanism 4, the detection element of the working station of the film removal mechanism 4 detects the material bag arrival signal, and the control mechanism controls the film removal mechanism 4 to work to separate the bottom and top of the outer film, complete the separation of the outer film and the vial, and complete the film removal operation.
[0066] In this embodiment, a robot mechanism can also be provided at the front end of the conveying mechanism 1. The robot mechanism is connected to the control mechanism via signal. The robot mechanism removes the vial packs 6 from the stack and places them onto the conveying mechanism 1 for automatic feeding. To facilitate the accuracy of the robot mechanism's operation, the stack is positioned using 3D vision. After positioning, the control mechanism sends the coordinates of each vial pack 6 to the robot mechanism for precise gripping.
[0067] By controlling the operation of the robot mechanism, conveying mechanism 1, pushing mechanism 3, film removal mechanism 4, and film cutting mechanism 2, the automated film removal of the vial pack 6 is achieved, improving film removal efficiency and reducing reliance on manual labor.
[0068] Based on any of the above embodiments, please refer to Figure 1 The vial film removal device also includes a mounting platform 7, wherein the conveying mechanism 1 is rotatably mounted on the mounting platform 7 to meet the operational requirements of conveying vial packs 6; the film cutting mechanism 2 is fixed on the mounting platform 7 and located above the conveying mechanism 1. When the vial pack 6 moves to the position of the film cutting mechanism 2, the film cutting mechanism 2 contacts the first side 61 of the outer film of the vial pack 6 and cuts it open.
[0069] For details, please refer to Figure 4 The film cutting mechanism 2 is provided with cutter assemblies 21 located on both sides of the conveying mechanism 1. Each cutter assembly 21 corresponds to a first side 61 on the outer film of the vial pack 6. That is, the cutter assemblies 21 on both sides of the conveying mechanism 1 correspond to two oppositely arranged first side 61s on the outer film, and are used to cut the first side 61.
[0070] In one specific embodiment, a cutter assembly 21 is provided on both sides of the conveying mechanism 1, and the outer membrane is cut through the contact between a single cutter assembly 21 and the first side 61 on each side.
[0071] In another specific embodiment, two or more cutting blade assemblies 21 are provided on both sides of the conveying mechanism 1. If the cutting blade assembly 21 closest to the inlet end of the conveying mechanism 1 fails to successfully cut the outer film, the cutting blade at the rear end of this cutting blade assembly 21 will cut the film again. The contact between the two or more cutting blade assemblies 21 and the first side 61 achieves the effect of reliably cutting the outer film. The two or more cutting blade assemblies 21 can be arranged along the conveying direction of the conveying mechanism 1 to ensure the reliable cutting effect of the outer film of the material package.
[0072] In this embodiment, the cutter assembly 21 includes a cutter. The shape and size of the cutter can be set according to actual needs to ensure a good film cutting effect. Figure 4 It adopts a triangular cutter, with the tip of the cutter being the vertex of a triangular structure. By reducing the contact area between the cutter and the outer membrane, it ensures a reliable cutting effect on the outer membrane.
[0073] Based on any of the above embodiments, please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 4 The mounting platform 7 is connected to a cutter frame 24, and the cutter frame 24 is connected to a movable part 22. The movable part 22 can move along the height of the cutter frame 24 to change the height of the two sets of cutter assemblies 21 connected to the moving end of the movable part 22, corresponding to the film cutting treatment of vial packs 6 of different heights.
[0074] The moving component 22 can be an electric cylinder or a pneumatic cylinder. To facilitate the movement of the moving component 22, limiting components 25 are also provided on both sides of the moving component 22 on the cutter frame 24. The movable distance of the moving component 22 is limited by the limiting components 25. The limiting components 25 are connected to the cutter assembly 21 and pass through the cutter frame 24. The limiting components 25 are provided with a first limiting part that abuts against the top of the cutter frame 24 and a second limiting part that abuts against the bottom of the cutter frame 24. A connecting part is provided between the first limiting part and the second limiting part. The connecting part passes through the cutter frame 24 and moves with the moving component 22. When the first limiting part abuts against the top of the cutter frame 24, it corresponds to the minimum height of the cutter assembly 21. When the second limiting part abuts against the bottom of the cutter frame 24, it corresponds to the maximum height of the cutter assembly 21.
[0075] At least one cutter assembly 21 can move along the length of the cutter frame 24 to change the distance between the two cutter assemblies 21, which is used to cooperate with the movement of the moving part 22 to achieve the film cutting process of different sized vial packs 6, thereby improving the applicability of the film cutting mechanism 2.
[0076] Taking one specific implementation as an example, one of the two cutting blade assemblies 21 is a fixed blade assembly, and the other is a moving blade assembly. The moving blade assembly is connected to a moving module 23, which allows the moving blade assembly to move closer to or further away from the fixed blade assembly, thereby changing the distance between the two cutting blade assemblies 21. The moving module 23 can specifically be a servo motor and a transmission component, which pushes the moving blade assembly to move. The moving module 23 and the cutting blade assembly 21 can be mounted on a crossbeam, which is connected to the moving component 22 and the limiting component 25.
[0077] Based on any of the above embodiments, the conveying mechanism 1 includes a conveying body and a limiting strip 15 fixed on the mounting platform 7. Please refer to [reference needed]. Figure 1 , Figure 3 .
[0078] The conveying body is equipped with several conveying grooves. The limiting strip 15 and the conveying grooves together form a limiting groove. When the conveying mechanism 1 rotates, the vial pack 6 is limited within the limiting groove, and the vial pack 6 can rotate with the conveying mechanism 1 for conveying. It should be noted that the height of the limiting groove does not exceed the middle position of the vial pack 6, and does not affect the operation of the film cutting mechanism 2. The limiting groove only serves to limit and assist in the conveying of the vial pack 6.
[0079] By setting the limiting groove, the vial material bag 6 is reliably limited, ensuring the cutting effect of the film cutting mechanism 2 and ensuring the success rate of film cutting.
[0080] In addition, the limiting bar 15 extends from the front end of the conveying body to the front end of the pushing mechanism 3 to avoid the pushing mechanism 3 from pushing the vial pack 6 to the film removal mechanism 4, thus avoiding affecting the pushing operation of the pushing mechanism 3.
[0081] In one specific embodiment, the conveying body is a conveyor belt with a scraper. The scraper and two fixed limiting strips 15 together form a limiting groove. The pushing mechanism 3 is located at the end of the conveyor belt. The front end of the pushing mechanism 3 is the end of the conveyor belt. Based on this, no limiting strips 15 are set on the mounting platform 7 at the position corresponding to the end of the conveyor belt, so that the pushing mechanism 3 can push the cut vial material bag 6 to the film removal mechanism 4.
[0082] Based on any of the above embodiments, please refer to Figure 3 The conveying body includes a conveying platform 16, with a first transmission mechanism and a second transmission mechanism on both sides of the conveying platform 16. The first transmission mechanism and the second transmission mechanism are respectively connected to a first drive motor 13, and the second transmission mechanism is respectively connected to a second drive motor 14. The first drive motor 13 drives the first transverse push rod 11 on the first transmission mechanism, and the second drive motor 14 drives the second transverse push rod 12 on the second transmission mechanism. The conveying trough includes the first transverse push rod 11 on the first transmission mechanism and the second transverse push rod 12 on the second transmission mechanism. The movement of the first transverse push rod 11 and the second transverse push rod 12 realizes the conveying of the vial pack 6.
[0083] The first transverse push rod 11 and the second transverse push rod 12 are movable, and the limiting strip 15 is fixed. By limiting the length of the limiting strip 15, it can be prevented from affecting the pushing operation of the pushing mechanism 3.
[0084] In one specific embodiment, no limiting strip 15 is provided at the end of the conveying platform 16 corresponding to the position of the pushing mechanism 3, so that when the vial pack 6 reaches the end of the conveying platform 16, it is only limited by the first transverse push rod 11 and the second transverse push rod 12. The pushing direction of the pushing mechanism 3 is perpendicular to the conveying direction of the conveying mechanism 1. Therefore, the pushing mechanism 3 can smoothly push the vial pack 6 to the film removal mechanism 4.
[0085] In another specific embodiment, a limiting strip 15 is provided at the end of the conveying platform 16 corresponding to the position of the pushing mechanism 3. The limiting strip 15 is located at the end of the conveying platform 16 away from the film removal mechanism 4, so that when the vial pack 6 reaches the end of the conveying platform 16, it is only limited by the first transverse push rod 11, the second transverse push rod 12, and the limiting strip 15. At this time, the end of the conveying platform 16 close to the film removal mechanism 4 is not limited, and the pushing mechanism 3 can push the vial pack 6 from this end to the film removal mechanism 4.
[0086] In addition, to improve the applicability of the conveying mechanism 1, the distance between the first transverse push rod 11 and the second transverse push rod 12 is adjustable to change the width of the limiting groove. Specifically, the distance between the first transverse push rod 11 and the second transverse push rod 12 is adjusted by changing the speed control of the first drive motor 13 and the second drive motor 14. The difference in speed between the two drive motors corresponds to the distance between the two transverse push rods.
[0087] The spacing between the limiting strips 15 on both sides of the mounting platform 7 is adjustable to change the length of the limiting groove. At least one limiting strip 15 on one side can be moved. The length direction of the limiting groove is the same as the horizontal direction of the horizontal push rod.
[0088] Based on any of the above embodiments, the film removal mechanism 4 includes a support frame 47, a clamping assembly 44, a suction cup assembly 42, a film pressing assembly 48, and a transfer assembly 46. Please refer to... Figure 1 , Figure 6 , Figure 7 .
[0089] The support frame 47 is provided with a worktable 45 for placing the vial material pack 6. The pushing mechanism 3 pushes the vial material pack 6 after the film is cut onto the worktable 45. The clamping component 44 clamps the bottom of the vial material pack 6, and then the suction cup component 42 adsorbs the top of the outer film to peel it off from the vial material pack 6. At this time, the top and bottom of the outer film are separated, and the top of the outer film is further transferred away by the suction cup component 42.
[0090] Then, the bottom of the outer film is pressed by the film pressing assembly 48, which is movably mounted on the support frame 47, and the transfer assembly 46 pushes the demolded vial out of the worktable 45, leaving the bottom of the outer film on the worktable 45.
[0091] Next, the membrane pressing assembly 48 is removed to release the pressure on the bottom of the outer membrane, and the bottom of the outer membrane is adsorbed by the suction cup assembly 42 to transfer it away, thus completing the separation of the outer membrane and the vial and the transfer of the two.
[0092] Based on any of the above embodiments, the worktable 45 can move up and down relative to the support frame 47. When the worktable 45 moves upward to the height position of the film pressing assembly 48, the film pressing assembly 48 extends to press against the bottom of the outer film. When the suction cup assembly 42 adsorbs the top of the outer film to peel it off from the vial pack 6, the worktable 45 is located at the top plane position of the support frame 47, and the film pressing assembly 48 does not operate. When the suction cup assembly 42 adsorbs the bottom of the outer film, the worktable 45 moves upward from the top plane position of the support frame 47 until it reaches the height position of the film pressing assembly 48, and the film pressing assembly 48 presses against the bottom of the outer film, so that the transfer assembly 46 can push and remove the demolded vial from the worktable 45.
[0093] Furthermore, the vials are pushed and moved out of the worktable 45 to the docking conveyor 5, which then sends the vials to the bottle washing machine turntable to complete the feeding process.
[0094] The transfer assembly 46 has an adjustable clamping frame. When the worktable 45 is positioned at the top plane of the support frame 47, the clamping frame is larger, allowing the vial pack 6 to enter the clamping frame. After the vial pack 6 enters the clamping frame, the size of the clamping frame is adjusted to fit the vial pack 6 reliably. Specifically, the size of the clamping frame can be adjusted by moving the frame edges using a cylinder, electric lever, etc. If we take a quadrilateral structure as an example, the frame edges refer to the four sides of the quadrilateral structure.
[0095] Based on any of the above embodiments, please refer to Figure 6 The support frame 47 is provided with a guide part 43, which is used to guide the vial material bag 6 before it enters the worktable 45, so that the pushing mechanism 3 can smoothly send the vial material bag 6 after film cutting into the worktable 45 of the film removal mechanism 4.
[0096] The guide section 43 has a guide slope at its inlet end and an outlet end that extends to the front end of the worktable 45. The inlet end of the guide section 43 is the initial position where the pushing mechanism 3 pushes the vial material bag 6 to the film removal mechanism 4. The worktable 45 on the film removal mechanism 4 corresponds to the initial position. The worktable 45 is the termination position where the pushing mechanism 3 pushes the vial material bag 6 to the film removal mechanism 4.
[0097] Based on any of the above embodiments, please refer to Figure 6 The support frame 47 is equipped with a power module 41 that drives the suction cup assembly 42 to move. The power module 41 can drive the suction cup assembly 42 to move closer to or further away from the worktable 45. The position away from the worktable 45 is the position where the outer film after adsorption is discarded. A storage slot can be set at the discarding position to facilitate the unified storage of the discarded outer film, which can then be processed uniformly later.
[0098] Specifically, the suction cup assembly 42 moves in the length direction of the power module 41, while the length direction of the power module 41 is perpendicular to the pushing direction of the pushing mechanism 3. After the pushing mechanism 3 completes the pushing, it can return to its original position without interfering with the operation of the suction cup assembly 42.
[0099] Based on any of the above embodiments, please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 5 The pushing mechanism 3 includes a push rod 31 and a drive member 32 connected thereto. The push rod 31 contacts the first side 61 of the vial pack 6 to push it. Here, the first side 61 is the first side 61 on the vial pack 6 that is away from the film removal mechanism 4.
[0100] A telescopic member 33 is provided between the push rod 31 and the drive member 32. The telescopic member 33 extends and retracts in a direction perpendicular to the moving direction of the push rod 31.
