Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of bottle cap inspection fixtures, and in particular to a self-rotating bottle cap appearance inspection fixture. Background Technology
[0002] As a crucial component of food and beverage packaging, bottle caps' appearance directly impacts the product's sealing performance. Therefore, their appearance must be inspected after production. Traditional bottle cap appearance inspection relies heavily on manual labor, resulting in low efficiency. Furthermore, the accuracy of the inspection is affected by factors such as the operator's eyesight, experience, and fatigue, easily leading to misjudgments or omissions. Consequently, the stability and consistency of bottle cap appearance quality cannot be guaranteed.
[0003] Therefore, some automatic bottle cap appearance inspection devices have emerged in the prior art, which can automatically inspect the appearance of bottle caps. However, since the bottle caps need to be installed in a fixture for appearance inspection, some parts of the bottle caps will be obstructed, affecting the accuracy of the inspection; furthermore, the bottle caps cannot move after being fixed by the fixture, which means that the inspection device can only inspect specific areas of the bottle caps and cannot perform a comprehensive inspection, making it easy to have false positives and false negatives. Utility Model Content
[0004] To address the problems mentioned above, this utility model provides a self-rotating bottle cap appearance inspection fixture, which facilitates comprehensive inspection of bottle caps and improves the accuracy of bottle cap inspection.
[0005] The solution adopted by this utility model to solve its technical problem is: a self-rotating bottle cap appearance inspection fixture, including a base body, a detection hole vertically arranged on the base body, a gear seat for fixing the bottle cap installed in the detection hole, the gear seat being a tubular structure with an installation hole at the center, and a drive component on one side of the base body being connected to the gear seat and driving the gear seat to rotate in the detection hole.
[0006] Furthermore, the base body includes a base, a support column vertically disposed on the top of the base, and a top plate fixedly installed on the top of the support column. A transmission channel is formed between the top plate and the base for the drive assembly to be connected to the gear seat.
[0007] Furthermore, the gear seat includes a gear portion and connecting portions at both ends of the gear portion. The connecting portions at both ends are respectively connected to the top plate and the base. The gear portion is disposed in the transmission channel.
[0008] Furthermore, the drive assembly includes a vertically arranged drive motor and a transmission gear mounted on the output shaft of the drive motor. The transmission gear is at the same height as the transmission channel and passes through the transmission channel to mesh with the gear section for transmission.
[0009] Furthermore, bearings are installed at the locations where the connecting part connects to the top plate and the base.
[0010] Furthermore, a support step for securing the bottle cap is provided on the inner wall of the mounting hole.
[0011] Furthermore, multiple detection holes are arranged side by side at equal intervals, and each detection hole is provided with a gear seat. The gear seats are sequentially connected in a transmission manner, and the drive assembly is connected in a transmission manner to any one of the gear seats.
[0012] In summary, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:
[0013] 1. This utility model provides a detection hole on the base body and installs a gear seat of a tubular mechanism inside the detection hole, allowing the bottle cap to be installed in the mounting hole of the gear seat for appearance inspection. This facilitates the inspection equipment to inspect the top and bottom surfaces of the bottle cap, achieving comprehensive inspection of the bottle cap.
[0014] 2. This utility model fixes the bottle cap by setting a gear seat, and sets a drive component that is connected to the gear seat on one side of the base body. The gear seat can rotate in the detection hole under the drive of the drive component, thereby driving the bottle cap to rotate. This makes it easier for the detection equipment to perform comprehensive detection on the periphery of the bottle cap, which can improve the accuracy of bottle cap detection.

Unless otherwise stated, "a plurality of" means two or more.
[0022] Unless otherwise expressly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," and "linking" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to fixed connections, detachable connections, or integral connections; they can refer to mechanical connections or electrical connections; they can refer to direct connections or indirect connections through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal connection between two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model based on the specific circumstances.
[0023] like Figures 1 to 2 As shown, a self-rotating bottle cap appearance inspection fixture allows the top and bottom surfaces of the bottle cap to be exposed during appearance inspection, while also enabling rotation. This facilitates comprehensive inspection of the bottle cap by the inspection equipment, improving the accuracy of the inspection. The bottle cap appearance inspection fixture of this embodiment includes a base body 1, on which a detection hole 11 is vertically provided. During inspection, the bottle cap can be mounted onto the base body 1 through the detection hole 11 for fixation, thus facilitating inspection by the inspection equipment.
[0024] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, in order to achieve comprehensive inspection of bottle caps, a gear seat 2 is installed in the inspection hole 11 of this embodiment. The gear seat 2 is a tubular structure with a vertically penetrating mounting hole 21 at its center. This allows the bottle cap to be fixedly installed in the mounting hole 21 for stable inspection. Furthermore, the penetrating mounting hole 21 allows the bottom surface of the bottle cap to protrude from the bottom of the base body 1 after installation, thereby facilitating comprehensive inspection by the inspection equipment and improving the appearance inspection effect of the bottle cap.
[0025] Furthermore, in this embodiment, a drive assembly 3 is provided on one side of the base body 1. The drive assembly 3 is connected to the gear seat 2 for transmission. When the drive assembly 3 is started, it can drive the gear seat 2 to rotate in the detection hole 11. This allows the bottle cap, which is stably installed in the mounting hole 21, to rotate under the drive of the gear seat 2. This facilitates the detection equipment for detecting the side of the bottle cap to detect the entire circumferential side of the bottle cap, which can effectively improve the overall detection effect of the bottle cap.
[0026] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the base body 1 of this embodiment includes a base 12, a support column 13 vertically disposed on the top of the base 12, and a top plate 14 fixedly installed on the top of the support column 13. In this embodiment, the top plate 14 forms a transmission channel 15 between the support column 13 and the base 12, so that the drive component 3 can realize the transmission with the gear seat 2 through the transmission channel 15, thereby realizing the rotation of the bottle cap installed on the gear seat 2.
[0027] Specifically, such as Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the gear seat 2 in this embodiment includes a gear part 22 and connecting parts 23 connected to both ends of the gear part 22. When the gear seat 2 is installed, the connecting parts 23 at both ends are rotatably installed in the detection holes 11 of the top plate 14 and the detection holes 11 of the base 12, respectively, to achieve fixed installation of the gear seat 2, and to allow the gear part 22 at the middle position to be exposed at the transmission channel 15, so as to facilitate the transmission connection of the drive assembly 3. In addition, bearings 4 are fitted on both connecting parts 23 in this embodiment, so that when the drive assembly 3 is started, the two ends of the gear seat 2 can be rotated stably by pulling and straightening, thereby driving the bottle cap to rotate so that the detection equipment can detect the entire circumferential side of the bottle cap.
[0028] The drive assembly 3 in this embodiment includes a drive motor 31 and a transmission gear 32 connected to the output shaft of the drive motor 31. The drive motor 31 is vertically arranged so that the transmission gear 32 can be parallel to the gear part 22 after installation. In this embodiment, the height of the transmission gear 32 is the same as the height of the transmission channel 15, which facilitates the drive gear to mesh with the gear part 22 to drive the gear seat 2 to rotate, thereby realizing the rotation of the bottle cap.
[0029] In this embodiment, a support step 24 is provided on the inner wall of the mounting opening, specifically on the inner wall of the connecting part 23 connected to the top plate 14. When the bottle cap is installed into the mounting opening for fixing, the support step 24 can support the bottom of the bottle cap, so that the top surface of the bottle cap can be higher than the top surface of the base body 1, which is convenient for the testing equipment to perform testing. At the same time, the support step 24 can avoid obstructing the bottom surface of the bottle cap, which is convenient for the testing equipment to perform testing on the bottom surface of the bottle cap.
[0030] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, in this embodiment, multiple detection holes 11 are arranged side by side at equal intervals, and each detection hole 11 is provided with a gear seat 2, so that multiple bottle caps can be installed in the base body 1 at the same time for batch detection, which can effectively improve the detection efficiency of bottle caps. Furthermore, in this embodiment, the gear seats 2 in each detection hole 11 are sequentially connected for transmission, and the drive component 3 is also connected to any gear seat 2 for transmission, so that a single drive mechanism in this embodiment can drive multiple gear seats 2 to rotate. This not only realizes the simultaneous rotation of each bottle cap, which facilitates the detection equipment to quickly detect the sides of multiple bottle caps, but also reduces the cost required for drive.
[0031] In summary, the principle of this embodiment is as follows: This embodiment sets a detection hole 11 on the base body 1 and installs a gear seat 2 of a tubular mechanism in the detection hole 11, so that the bottle cap can be installed in the mounting hole 21 of the gear seat 2 for appearance inspection, which facilitates the detection equipment to inspect the top and bottom surfaces of the bottle cap, and realizes comprehensive inspection of the bottle cap; at the same time, this embodiment fixes the bottle cap by setting the gear seat 2, and sets a drive component 3 connected to the gear seat 2 on one side of the base body 1, so that the gear seat 2 can rotate in the detection hole 11 under the drive of the drive component 3, thereby driving the bottle cap to rotate, which facilitates the detection equipment to perform comprehensive inspection of the circumference of the bottle cap, and can improve the accuracy of bottle cap inspection.
[0032] The embodiments described above are merely preferred embodiments of this utility model and should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of this utility model. Any non-substantial changes and modifications made by those skilled in the art based on this utility model shall fall within the scope of protection of this utility model.
