Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of packaging machinery technology, specifically a beverage can pressing and sealing device. Background Technology

[0002] Aluminum cans are disposable beverage containers. Their thick shells are shock-resistant and have strong airtightness, ensuring that the bubbles in carbonated beverages are tightly compressed and compressed after sealing. This also improves the taste and refreshingness of tremella beverages and ensures the overall utilization rate of aluminum can processing.

[0003] Beverage can sealing devices are widely used in daily life. Cans contain a certain amount of liquid. In the current technology, sealing cans usually involves placing the can body on the tray of the sealing machine, placing the can lid on top of the can body, and then sealing it.

[0004] When using a can pressing and sealing device, you simply place the can on a tray and press and seal it. However, if the can is not in a fixed position, it may shift during the pressing and sealing process, which will increase the time required to adjust the position of the can.

[0005] Therefore, a beverage can pressing and sealing device is proposed to address the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0006] In order to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art, at least one technical problem raised in the background art is solved.

[0007] The technical solution adopted by this utility model to solve its technical problem is as follows: The beverage can pressing and sealing device of this utility model includes a tray, the surface of which is provided with a pair of sliding grooves; a slider is slidably connected inside the sliding grooves; a clamping plate is fixedly connected to the top of the slider; a pair of locking blocks are fixedly connected to the inner wall of the clamping plate; another pair of locking slots are provided on the inner wall of the clamping plate; the locking blocks and locking slots are correspondingly arranged; by clamping the can with the clamping plate, the can can be fixed in a specific position, reducing the displacement of the can during sealing and pressing, and also reducing the deformation of the can due to uneven force when fixing the can, while also reducing the time for adjusting the position of the can.

[0008] Preferably, a support plate is fixed to the top of the clamping plate; the support plate is semi-circular; by using the support plate to lift the top of the tank, the force generated by the sealing equipment when operating at the sealing position will not affect the position of the other tanks, so that the edge of the tank opening can better contact the sealing equipment during sealing, and the contact area between the edge of the tank opening and the sealing position is increased.

[0009] Preferably, the card block has a first circular hole in the middle; the clamping plate has a second circular hole on its side wall; the second circular hole is disposed through the inside of the card slot; a rod is disposed inside the second circular hole; the rod and the second circular hole are correspondingly disposed and are slidably engaged; the first circular hole and the rod are correspondingly disposed and are slidably engaged; multiple rubber blocks are fixed to the inner wall of the clamping plate; a suction cup is fixed to the middle of the rubber blocks; using the rod to fix the card block can increase the stability of the clamping plate when fixing the can, and at the same time, the characteristic of the rubber blocks that can automatically deform under force increases the contact area between the can and the inner wall of the clamping plate, and then the can is adsorbed and fixed by the suction cup, which can further increase the stability of the clamping plate in fixing the can.

[0010] Preferably, a pair of fixing plates are fixed to the side wall of the clamping plate; an elastic cloth is fixed to the middle of the fixing plates on the same side; by using the rebound force of the elastic cloth, it can automatically and quickly rebound to the initial position, so as to quickly reset the clamping plate and fix the tank together, thereby reducing the time for fixing the tank.

[0011] Preferably, damping rods are fixedly connected to the middle of the fixing plates on the same side; multiple damping rods are provided on the fixing plates; by using damping rods to increase resistance to the rebound of the elastic cloth, the excessively fast rebound of the elastic cloth can be reduced, which would cause the clamping plate to impact the tank, thereby slowing down the collision between the inner wall of the clamping plate and the surface of the tank and reducing damage to the surface of the tank.

[0012] Preferably, a sponge is fixed to the top of the clamping plate; the sponge is arranged in a U-shape on the clamping plate; since the sponge is arranged in a U-shape and its two ends are on the outside of the support plate, when the tremella beverage in the can is squeezed out by the sealing device, it will flow to the middle of the sponge and the support plate, thereby maximizing the absorption by the sponge and reducing the amount of tremella beverage flowing into the side wall of the clamping plate.

[0013] The advantages of this utility model are:

[0014] 1. The beverage can pressing and sealing device of this utility model can fix the can in a specific position by clamping the can with a clamping plate, reducing the displacement of the can during sealing and pressing, reducing the deformation of the can due to uneven force when fixing the can, and also reducing the time for adjusting the position of the can.

[0015] 2. The beverage can pressing and sealing device of this utility model uses a support plate to lift the top of the can, so that the force generated by the sealing equipment when operating at the sealing position will not affect the position of the rest of the can, so that the edge of the can mouth can better contact the sealing equipment during sealing, and the contact area between the edge of the can mouth and the sealing device is increased.

[0023] 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 scope of protection of the present utility model.

[0024] Specific implementation examples are given below.

[0025] like Figures 1 to 5As shown in the embodiment of this utility model, a beverage can pressing and sealing device includes a tray 1. A pair of grooves 11 are formed on the surface of the tray 1. A slider 12 is slidably connected inside the grooves 11. A clamping plate 13 is fixedly connected to the top of the slider 12. A pair of locking blocks 14 are fixedly connected to the inner wall of the clamping plate 13. A pair of slots 15 are formed on the inner wall of the other clamping plate 13. The locking blocks 14 and slots 15 are correspondingly arranged. During operation, before use, the clamping plate 13 is pushed to allow the slider 12 to slide outwards along the grooves 11, thus opening the clamping plate 13 and leaving the center of the tray 1 exposed. Then, after placing the can filled with tremella beverage in the middle of the tray 1, push the clamp 13 to make the slider 12 slide along the inner wall of the slide groove 11 until the card block 14 is sent into the slot 15 to fix the clamp 13. The inner wall of the clamp 13 will be tightly attached to the surface of the can to achieve the effect of fixing the can. Then, the can can be pressed and sealed. By clamping the can with the clamp 13, the can can be fixed in a specific position, reducing the displacement of the can during sealing and pressing. It can also reduce the deformation of the can due to uneven force when fixing the can, and also reduce the time for adjusting the position of the can.

[0026] like Figure 2 As shown, a support plate 2 is fixedly connected to the top of the clamping plate 13; the support plate 2 is semi-circular; during operation, when the can is placed in the middle of the clamping plate 13, the recessed position of the can will be held in place by the support plate 2 when it contacts the top of the support plate 2, thus supporting the can and preventing it from falling completely to the bottom, so that the position requiring pressing and sealing and the pressing and sealing device can complete the pressing and sealing work more quickly; by using the support plate 2 to support the top of the can, the force generated by the sealing device when operating the sealing position will not affect the position of other cans, so that the edge of the can mouth can better contact the sealing device when sealing, increasing the contact area between the edge of the can mouth and the sealing device.

[0027] like Figures 2 to 5As shown, the card block 14 has a first circular hole 3 in the middle; the clamping plate 13 has a second circular hole 31 on its side wall; the second circular hole 31 is disposed through the inside of the card slot 15; an insertion rod 32 is disposed inside the second circular hole 31; the insertion rod 32 and the second circular hole 31 are correspondingly disposed and are in sliding fit; the first circular hole 3 and the insertion rod 32 are correspondingly disposed and are in sliding fit; multiple rubber blocks 33 are fixedly connected to the inner wall of the clamping plate 13; a suction cup 34 is fixedly connected to the middle of the rubber block 33; during operation, after the two clamping plates 13 are combined, the insertion rod 32 is inserted into the card slot 15 through the second circular hole 31, then into the first circular hole 3, and finally to the bottom. Deeper in, the locking block 14 can be fixed. When the can is placed between the two clamping plates 13, there will be a gap below because the top of the can is held in place by the support plate 2. The lower part of the can is fixed by adsorption using the first round hole 3 to reduce shaking caused by the gap and prevent the silver ear fungus beverage from spilling. The locking block 14 is fixed by the insert rod 32 to increase the stability of the clamping plate 13 when fixing the can. At the same time, the rubber block 33 can automatically deform under force to increase the contact area between the can and the inner wall of the clamping plate 13. Then, the can is adsorbed and fixed by the suction cup 34, which can further increase the stability of the clamping plate 13 in fixing the can.

[0028] like Figures 1 to 2 As shown, a pair of fixing plates 4 are fixed to the side wall of the clamping plate 13; an elastic cloth 41 is fixed to the middle of each of the fixing plates 4 on the same side; during operation, after the clamping plate 13 is pulled out and placed into the tank, it needs to be manually pushed back to merge. Thus, with the addition of the elastic cloth 41, the elastic cloth 41 will extend when the clamping plate 13 is pulled out. After the clamping plate 13 is released, the elastic force of the elastic cloth 41 can be used to reset the clamping plate 13 for automatic merging; by using the elastic force of the elastic cloth 41, it can automatically and quickly return to the initial position, and the clamping plate 13 can be quickly reset and merged to fix the tank, thereby reducing the time for fixing the tank.

[0029] like Figure 2 As shown, damping rods 5 are fixedly connected to the middle of the fixing plates 4 on the same side; multiple damping rods 5 are provided on the fixing plates 4; during operation, as the elastic cloth 41 drives the clamping plate 13 to rebound and clamp the can, the elastic cloth 41 tightens and then fixes the can in the clamping plate 13 by merging the clamping plate 13. At this time, the damping rods 5 also limit the rebound speed of the elastic cloth 41, increasing the stability of the can fixing process. Therefore, the damping rods 5 are used to slowly rebound the elastic cloth 41, reducing the impact force of the elastic cloth 41 driving the clamping plate 13 on the can; by using the damping rods 5 to increase the resistance of the rebound of the elastic cloth 41, the rapid rebound of the elastic cloth 41 can be reduced, which would cause the clamping plate 13 to impact the can, thus slowing down the collision between the inner wall of the clamping plate 13 and the surface of the can and reducing damage to the surface of the can.

[0030] like Figure 3As shown, a sponge 6 is fixed to the top of the clamping plate 13; the sponge 6 is U-shaped on the clamping plate 13; during operation, when the sealing device seals the can opening, it will squeeze out the excess tremella beverage inside the can, which will then flow to the top of the clamping plate 13 and come into contact with the sponge 6, thereby being absorbed by the sponge 6 and reducing the time it stays on the top of the clamping plate 13; since the sponge 6 is U-shaped and its two ends are on the outside of the support plate 2, when the tremella beverage inside the can is squeezed out by the sealing device, it will flow to the middle of the sponge 6 and the support plate 2, thereby being absorbed by the sponge 6 to the maximum extent and reducing the amount of tremella beverage flowing into the side wall of the clamping plate 13.

[0031] Working principle: Before use, push the clamp 13 to make the slider 12 slide outward along the slide groove 11 to open the clamp 13, thus leaving the middle position of the tray 1. Then, place the can filled with tremella beverage in the middle of the tray 1, and then push the clamp 13 to make the slider 12 slide along the inner wall of the slide groove 11 until the locking block 14 is sent into the locking slot 15 to fix the clamp 13. The inner wall of the clamp 13 will be tightly attached to the surface of the can to achieve the effect of fixing the can. Then, the can can be pressed and sealed. Place the can into the clamp 13. In the middle, the recessed part of the can will be held in place by the support plate 2 when it contacts the top, thus preventing the can from falling completely to the bottom. This allows the pressing and sealing device to complete the pressing and sealing work more quickly. After the two clamping plates 13 are joined together, the insert rod 32 is inserted into the slot 15 through the second round hole 31, then into the first round hole 3, and finally to the deepest point. This fixes the locking block 14. At the same time, when the can is placed between the two clamping plates 13, because the top of the can is held in place by the support plate 2, there will be a part below. To prevent the can from slipping due to gaps, the first circular hole 3 is used to hold the lower can in place, reducing the risk of spillage. After the clamp 13 is pulled out and placed into the can, it needs to be manually pushed back to close. The addition of the elastic cloth 41 allows it to stretch when the clamp 13 is pulled out, and its rebound force automatically returns the clamp 13 to its original position after the clamp 13 is released. During the process of the elastic cloth 41 clamping the can, as it pulls the clamp 13 back to hold it in place, the elastic cloth 41 tightens... The can is fixed in the clamping plate 13 by merging the clamping plate 13. At this time, the damping rod 5 also limits the rebound speed of the elastic cloth 41, increasing the stability of the can fixing process. Therefore, the damping rod 5 is used to slowly rebound the elastic cloth 41, reducing the impact force of the elastic cloth 41 on the clamping plate 13 on the can. When the sealing equipment seals the can opening, it will squeeze the excess tremella beverage in the can out of the can. At this time, it will flow to the top of the clamping plate 13 and then come into contact with the sponge 6, thereby being absorbed by the sponge 6 and reducing the time it stays on the top of the clamping plate 13.

[0032] The foregoing has shown and described the basic principles, main features, and advantages of this utility model. Those skilled in the art should understand that this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. The embodiments and descriptions in the specification are merely illustrative of the principles of this utility model. Various changes and modifications can be made to this utility model without departing from its spirit and scope, and all such changes and modifications fall within the scope of the claimed utility model.
