Example

[0035] See Figures 1-4As shown, an induction bottle-separating mechanism includes a fixed bracket 8. One end of the fixed bracket 8 is adjustable in its front and rear depth positions on a frame, which is the frame of a bottling production line. The fixed bracket 8 can be adjusted in its front and rear positions according to actual production needs to achieve different depth positions. A fixed plate 4 is provided at the other end of the fixed bracket 8, and its height is adjustable. A rotating block 2 is pivotally mounted on the fixed plate 4, and the rotating block 2, like a seesaw, has its two ends located on either side of the pivot position. One end of the rotating block 2 is exposed above the fixed plate 4 and has a roller 1 mounted thereon; the other end has an induction plate 6 mounted on it. A sensor switch 5 corresponding to the induction plate 6 is provided on the fixed plate 4. A reset elastic component 7 is provided between the rotating block 2 and the fixed plate 4. The sensor switch 5 and the reset elastic component 7 are distributed on both sides of the induction plate 6, ensuring the rationality and stability of the mechanism's sensing and reset functions, thereby achieving precise bottle-separating operation.

[0036] The fixed bracket 8 consists of a first side plate 81 and a second side plate 82 bent at 90 degrees. This structural design provides a stable support structure for the induction bottle-separating mechanism. Two first sliding grooves 84, symmetrically distributed along the center line of the fixed bracket 8, are provided on the first side plate 81 for adjusting the installation depth of the fixed bracket 8. In practical applications, by installing suitable bolts on the frame, passing the bolts through the first sliding grooves 84, and tightening nuts, the depth of the fixed bracket 8 can be changed by adjusting the position of the nuts within the grooves, thus meeting the bottle-separating and induction requirements for products of different heights.

[0037] The second side plate 82 has two sets of positioning holes 85 symmetrically distributed along the center line of the fixed bracket 8, used to position the fixed plate 4. The fixed plate 4 has a second sliding groove 41 that matches the positioning holes 85. Bolts are passed through the second sliding groove 41 and locked into the positioning holes 85, thus fixing the fixed plate 4 in place on the fixed bracket 8. This installation method is simple and stable. Alternatively, pins can be used in conjunction with the positioning holes and sliding grooves to achieve the same stable connection, providing a fundamental guarantee for the subsequent functions of the induction bottle-separating mechanism. The application of the second sliding groove 41 enables the separation and sensing of products of different diameters.

[0038] In this embodiment, roller 1 is a nylon roller. Nylon material has excellent wear resistance and self-lubricating properties, which can effectively reduce frictional wear between the roller and the bottle body and extend the service life of the roller. Of course, in addition to nylon rollers, rollers made of engineering plastic materials with similar wear resistance and low friction properties can also be selected for roller 1 to ensure the stable operation of the bottle separating mechanism while meeting the needs of different scenarios.

[0039] In this embodiment, a reinforcing plate 83 is provided between the first side plate 81 and the second side plate 82, which can effectively enhance the overall strength and stability of the fixed bracket 8. The reinforcing plate 83 can be fixed by welding or bolt connection.

[0040] The reset elastic component 7 in this embodiment mainly consists of a first positioning post 71 fixed on the rotating block 2, a second positioning post 73 fixed on the fixing plate 4, and a spring 72. The two ends of the spring 72 are securely connected to the first positioning post 71 and the second positioning post 73, respectively. The elastic deformation of the spring 72 provides the reset force for the rotating block 2. In actual connection, the spring 72 can be connected to the positioning post using hooks or fixed by welding.

[0041] To limit the swing position of the rotating block 2, a positioning bolt 9 is also provided on the fixing plate 4, thereby limiting the maximum swing angle of the rotating block 2. In actual installation, the positioning bolt 9 can also be replaced by a positioning pin, which is inserted into the preset positioning holes of the fixing plate 4 and the rotating block 2 to achieve the same position limiting function.

[0042] In this embodiment, the rotating block 2 consists of a first rotating arm 21 and a second rotating arm 22, which are distributed at an obtuse angle. A pivot hole 23 is provided at the junction of the first rotating arm 21 and the second rotating arm 22, and a rotating shaft 3 is provided in the pivot hole 23. The lower end of the rotating shaft 3 is externally threaded, and the corresponding fixing plate 4 is provided with a threaded hole, so that the rotating shaft 3 is threadedly connected to the fixing plate 4, thereby fixing the position of both.

[0043] In this invention, the rotating block 2 rotates flexibly around the rotating shaft 3. One end of the rotating block 2 has a sensing plate 6 that works in conjunction with a sensor switch 5 on the fixed plate. When the bottle pushes the rotating block 2 to a specific position, the sensing plate 6 triggers the sensor switch 5. The sensor switch 5 is connected to the backend control system, which receives the number of times the sensor switch 5 is activated to determine the bottle separation status on the conveyor belt. A spring 72 is connected between the rotating block 2 and the fixed plate 4. When the rotating block 2 rotates due to external force, the elastic potential energy of the spring 72 quickly resets it, preparing it for the next sensing operation.

[0044] The induction bottle-splitting mechanism of this utility model has a simple structure, is easy to manufacture and install, occupies little space and saves costs, is reliable in use, and can realize rapid bottle splitting and sensing.
