Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of glass bottle production, and in particular to a glass bottle guiding device with a buffer structure. Background Technology

[0002] Glass bottles undergo heating and cooling processes during manufacturing. Uneven heating or cooling rates, or improper temperature control, can cause the bottle to bulge. Bulging not only affects the overall appearance of the bottle but also prevents the packaging tape from adhering properly. To detect bulging, guide and detection devices are typically installed on the conveyor belt. The guide ensures the bottle is centered and aligned with the detection interval of the device. The width of the interval is usually the same as the diameter of a qualified bottle. If a bottle fails to pass through the interval, it indicates bulging, allowing for the recycling of defective products.

[0003] Because the glass bottles are transported at unpredictable locations and at a certain speed on the conveyor belt, when the glass bottles are transported to the guiding device, they will collide with the edges and corners of the guiding device, causing cracks, chips, or other forms of damage to the glass bottles. Utility Model Content

[0004] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model provides a glass bottle guiding device with a buffer structure. The purpose is to solve the technical problem that the glass bottle will collide with the corners of the guiding device during transportation, causing cracks, chips or other forms of damage to the glass bottle.

[0005] The technical solution of this utility model to solve the above-mentioned technical problems is as follows:

[0006] A glass bottle guiding device with a buffer structure includes a conveyor frame, a detection device, and a guiding device body. The conveyor frame has a conveyor belt at its top and limiting plates on both sides of its top. The two limiting plates are spaced apart to form a conveying interval. One end of the conveying interval has a feed end, and the other end has a discharge end. The detection device and the guiding device body are located inside the conveying interval. The detection device is near the discharge end, and the guiding device body is located between the detection device and the feed end. The guiding device body includes two mounting plates, each located on one side of one of the limiting plates. One end of each mounting plate has a guide plate, and the guide plates of the two mounting plates are spaced apart to form a guiding interval, which connects to the conveying interval. One side of each mounting plate has a buffer portion, including a buffer spring. The buffer spring is located on one side of the mounting plate, and one end of the buffer spring has a buffer plate, bringing the buffer plate close to the feed end.

[0007] When glass bottles are conveyed from the feed end to the conveyor interval, they may be misaligned or slightly tilted. As the conveyor belt continues to run, the glass bottles gradually approach the guide device body, while some glass bottles will be conveyed to the corners of the guide device body, that is, the glass bottles will collide with the buffer plate. The buffer plate is compressed to a certain extent through the buffer springs connected to it, thereby absorbing and dispersing the impact force of the glass bottles. The buffering effect can effectively reduce the damage to the glass bottles caused by collisions during the conveying process, thereby avoiding damage to the corners of the guide device body caused by the glass bottles hitting the body.

[0008] Furthermore, in this application, a first mounting groove is provided on one side of the mounting plate, and the other end of the buffer spring is disposed inside the first mounting groove. A second mounting groove is provided on one side of the buffer plate, and one end of the buffer spring is disposed inside the second mounting groove.

[0009] When the glass bottle collides with the buffer plate, the buffer plate is compressed to a certain extent through the buffer spring connected to it. Since the other end of the buffer spring is located inside the first mounting groove and one end of the buffer spring is located inside the second mounting groove, the two ends of the spring buffer spring move along a predetermined path when it extends and retracts, thereby guiding the extension and retraction position of the buffer spring.

[0010] Furthermore, in this application, the first mounting groove has first locking protrusions on both sides of its interior, and the first locking protrusions on both sides of the first mounting groove are engaged with the other end of the buffer spring. The second mounting groove has second locking protrusions on both sides of its interior, and the second locking protrusions on both sides of the second mounting groove are engaged with one end of the buffer spring.

[0011] When the buffer spring extends, the first latches on both sides of the first mounting groove engage with the other end of the buffer spring, and the second latches on both sides of the second mounting groove engage with one end of the buffer spring, thus facilitating the limiting of both ends of the buffer spring and preventing the buffer spring from dislodging from its fixed position.

[0012] Furthermore, in this application, a protective pad is provided on one side of the buffer plate, and the protective pad is made of a flexible material.

[0013] Furthermore, in this application, the detection device includes two detection plates located inside the conveying interval, the two detection plates being spaced apart to form a detection interval, the detection interval matching the diameter of the glass bottle, and the detection interval facing the guide interval.

[0014] Furthermore, in this application, a connecting arm is provided on one side of the detection plate, an adjusting rod is provided at the bottom of the connecting arm, support cylinders are provided on both sides of the conveyor frame, and movable cavities are opened inside the support cylinders. The adjusting rod slides in cooperation with the adjacent movable cavity.

[0015] Furthermore, in this application, a plurality of first fixing holes are provided on one side of the adjusting rod, and a second fixing hole is provided on one side of the support cylinder. The second fixing hole communicates with the movable cavity, and a first fixing bolt passes through the second fixing hole. The first fixing bolt is threadedly engaged with any of the first fixing holes.

[0016] Furthermore, in this application, the conveyor frame is provided with adjusting bars on both sides, and a movable seat is provided on one side of the adjusting bar. The bottom of the movable seat is provided with a movable groove, and the movable groove is slidably engaged with the adjacent adjusting bar.

[0017] Furthermore, in this application, one end of the adjusting bar is provided with a limiting block, one end of the limiting block protruding from the top of the adjusting bar, so that the movable seat is located between the conveyor frame and the limiting block.

[0018] Furthermore, in this application, the top of the adjusting strip is provided with a plurality of third fixing holes, the interior of the movable seat is provided with a fourth fixing hole, a second fixing bolt is inserted into the fourth fixing hole, and the second fixing bolt is threadedly engaged with any of the third fixing holes.

[0019] This utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0020] When glass bottles are conveyed from the feed end to the conveyor interval, they may be misaligned or slightly tilted. As the conveyor belt continues to run, the glass bottles gradually approach the guide device body, while some glass bottles will be conveyed to the corners of the guide device body, that is, the glass bottles will collide with the buffer plate. The buffer plate is compressed to a certain extent through the buffer spring connected to it, thereby absorbing and dispersing the impact force of the glass bottles. The buffering effect can effectively reduce the damage to the glass bottles caused by collisions during the conveying process, thereby avoiding damage to the corners of the guide device body caused by the glass bottles hitting the body.

[0032] Reference Figures 1-6In some specific embodiments, a glass bottle guiding device with a buffer structure includes a conveyor frame 1, a detection device 5, and a guiding device body 34. A conveyor belt 2 is provided on the top of the conveyor frame 1, and limiting plates 3 are provided on both sides of the top of the conveyor frame 1. The two limiting plates 3 are spaced apart to form a conveying interval 4. One end of the conveying interval 4 has a feeding end 32, and the other end of the conveying interval 4 has a discharging end 33. The detection device 5 and the guiding device body 34 are located inside the conveying interval 4, with the detection device 5 near the discharging end 33. Located between the detection device 5 and the feed end 32, the guide device body 34 includes two mounting plates 8, which are respectively located on one side of the two limiting plates 3. One end of the mounting plate 8 is provided with a guide plate 9, and the guide plates 9 of the two mounting plates 8 are separated to form a guide interval 6. The guide interval 6 is connected to the conveying interval 4. One side of the mounting plate 8 is provided with a buffer part 35, which includes a buffer spring 10. The buffer spring 10 is located on one side of the mounting plate 8, and one end of the buffer spring 10 is provided with a buffer plate 11, so that the buffer plate 11 is close to the feed end 32.

[0033] Through the above technical solution, when the glass bottles are conveyed from the feed end 32 to the conveying interval 4, they will be misaligned or slightly tilted. As the conveyor belt 2 continues to run, the glass bottles gradually approach the guide device body 34, while some glass bottles will be conveyed to the corners of the guide device body 34, that is, the glass bottles will collide with the buffer plate 11. The buffer plate 11 is compressed to a certain extent through the buffer spring 10 connected to it, thereby absorbing and dispersing the impact force of the glass bottles. The buffering effect can effectively reduce the damage to the glass bottles caused by collisions during the conveying process, and at the same time help correct the position of the glass bottles, so that they return to the center position of the conveying interval 4, so that the detection device 5 can detect the swelling of the glass bottles, thereby avoiding damage to the corners of the guide device body 34 caused by the glass bottles hitting the corners.

[0034] Reference Figures 3-4 In some specific embodiments, a first mounting groove 13 is provided on one side of the mounting plate 8, and the other end of the buffer spring 10 is located inside the first mounting groove 13. A second mounting groove 15 is provided on one side of the buffer plate 11, and one end of the buffer spring 10 is located inside the second mounting groove 15.

[0035] With the above technical solution, when the glass bottle collides with the buffer plate 11, the buffer plate 11 is compressed to a certain extent by the buffer spring 10 connected to it. Since the other end of the buffer spring 10 is located inside the first mounting groove 13 and one end of the buffer spring 10 is located inside the second mounting groove 15, the two ends of the buffer spring 10 move along a predetermined path when it extends and retracts, thereby guiding the extension and retraction position of the buffer spring 10.

[0036] Reference Figures 3-4In some specific embodiments, the first mounting groove 13 has first locking protrusions 14 on both sides inside, and the first locking protrusions 14 on both sides of the first mounting groove 13 are engaged with the other end of the buffer spring 10. The second mounting groove 15 has second locking protrusions 16 on both sides inside, and the second locking protrusions 16 on both sides of the second mounting groove 15 are engaged with one end of the buffer spring 10.

[0037] With the above technical solution, when the buffer spring 10 is extended, the first latching protrusions 14 on both sides of the first mounting groove 13 engage with the other end of the buffer spring 10, and the second latching protrusions 16 on both sides of the second mounting groove 15 engage with one end of the buffer spring 10, thereby facilitating the limiting of both ends of the buffer spring 10 and preventing the buffer spring 10 from disengaging from the fixed position.

[0038] Reference Figures 3-4 In some specific embodiments, a protective pad 12 is provided on one side of the buffer plate 11, and the protective pad 12 is made of flexible material.

[0039] With the above technical solution, when the glass bottle collides with the buffer plate 11, the protective pad 12 replaces the buffer plate 11 to collide with the glass bottle. Since the protective pad 12 is a flexible material, the flexible material can absorb some of the impact energy, further reducing the force on the glass bottle. In addition, while absorbing the impact force, the flexible material can also reduce the noise generated by the collision, making the working environment quieter.

[0040] Reference Figures 5-6 In some specific embodiments, the detection device 5 includes two detection plates 17 located inside the conveying interval 4. The two detection plates 17 are spaced apart to form a detection interval 7, which matches the diameter of the glass bottle and faces the guide interval 6.

[0041] With the above technical solution, since the detection interval 7 matches the diameter of the glass bottle, the detection device 5 can detect the expansion of the glass bottle very accurately. If the glass bottle expands, its diameter will increase, which will cause the detection plate 17 to block the glass bottle when it passes through the detection interval 7, so that the distance between the detection plates 17 is insufficient for the expanded glass bottle to pass through normally, so as to reject the expanded glass bottle.

[0042] Reference Figures 5-6 In some specific embodiments, a connecting arm 18 is provided on one side of the detection plate 17, and an adjusting rod 19 is provided at the bottom of the connecting arm 18. Support cylinders 21 are provided on both sides of the conveying frame 1. An movable cavity 22 is opened inside the support cylinder 21, and the adjusting rod 19 slides in cooperation with the adjacent movable cavity 22.

[0043] Through the above technical solution, by cooperating with the adjusting rod 19 and the movable cavity 22, the operator can very precisely adjust the height position of the detection plate 17 to adapt to glass bottles of different heights, ensuring that the detection interval 7 corresponds to the position of the glass bottle body.

[0044] Reference Figures 5-6 In some specific embodiments, a plurality of first fixing holes 20 are provided on one side of the adjusting rod 19, and a second fixing hole 24 is provided on one side of the support cylinder 21. The second fixing hole 24 is connected to the movable cavity 22, and a first fixing bolt 23 is inserted into the second fixing hole 24. The first fixing bolt 23 is threadedly engaged with any of the first fixing holes 20.

[0045] With the above technical solution, when the height of the detection plate 17 is adjusted, the adjusting rod 19 slides along the movable cavity 22 to the required position. At this time, the second fixing hole 24 corresponds to any of the first fixing holes 20. The first fixing bolt 23 passes through the second fixing hole 24 and is threadedly engaged with the corresponding first fixing hole 20, thereby fixing the position of the adjusting rod 19 after adjustment.

[0046] Reference Figures 5-6 In some specific embodiments, the conveyor frame 1 is provided with adjusting strips 27 on both sides, and a movable seat 25 is provided on one side of the adjusting strip 27. The bottom of the movable seat 25 is provided with a movable groove 26, and the movable groove 26 slides in cooperation with the adjacent adjusting strip 27.

[0047] With the above technical solution, when the batch of glass bottles being measured changes, the diameter of the glass bottles will increase or decrease. By sliding the movable groove 26 of the movable seat 25 and the adjusting strip 27, the lateral position of the detection plate 17 can be easily adjusted so that the detection interval 7 matches the diameter of the glass bottle being measured.

[0048] Reference Figures 5-6 In some specific embodiments, one end of the adjusting bar 27 is provided with a limiting block 29, one end of the limiting block 29 protruding from the top of the adjusting bar 27, so that the movable seat 25 is located between the conveying frame 1 and the limiting block 29.

[0049] With the above technical solution, when the movable seat 25 slides to any end of the adjusting bar 27, since the movable seat 25 is located between the conveying frame 1 and the limiting block 29, the movement position of the movable seat 25 is limited, preventing the movable seat 25 from leaving the sliding position of the adjusting bar 27.

[0050] Reference Figures 5-6 In some specific embodiments, the top of the adjusting strip 27 is provided with a plurality of third fixing holes 28, and the interior of the movable seat 25 is provided with a fourth fixing hole 30. A second fixing bolt 31 is inserted into the fourth fixing hole 30, and the second fixing bolt 31 is threadedly engaged with any of the third fixing holes 28.

[0051] The above technical solution facilitates the fixing of the movable seat 25 after adjustment by means of the threaded engagement between the second fixing bolt 31 and the third fixing hole 28.

[0052] It should be noted that, in this document, relational terms such as "first" and "second" are used only to distinguish one entity or operation from another, and do not necessarily require or imply any such actual relationship or order between these entities or operations. Furthermore, the terms "comprising," "including," or any other variations thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, such that a process, method, article, or apparatus that comprises a list of elements includes not only those elements but also other elements not expressly listed, or elements inherent to such process, method, article, or apparatus.
