TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The utility model belongs to the field of medicine bottle conveying equipment, and particularly relates to a novel medicine bottle clamping mechanism. BACKGROUND

[0002] Medicine bottles need to be conveyed by conveying mechanisms when being transferred between different production processes. When performing a packaging process, medicine bottles like ampoule bottles need to be grabbed in groups and placed in box holders. Traditional bottle picking operations are generally manually performed by workers, which is inefficient. The existing medicine bottle clamping mechanism generally uses a sponge suction cup to suck the bottle head from above and then convey it, which can improve the bottle picking efficiency, but the bottle grabbing is not very stable, and problems like bottle falling often occur during the conveying process, which affects the quality of the box holder and the production efficiency.

[0010] Preferably, the top rod is provided with a circular-arc concave surface matched with the lateral wall of the medicine bottle near the end of the medicine bottle.

[0011] The utility model has the beneficial effect that:

[0012] 1. The piston rod of the left and right two cylinders is elongated, which drives the two clamping plates to approach each other, and then clamps the two sides of the medicine bottle group from the left and right directions to clamp and fix the medicine bottle.

[0013] 2. When the air bag is inflated, the top rod can be pushed to slide out of the perforation, so that the top rod abuts against the front and rear sides of the medicine bottle group, and then the medicine bottle group is clamped and fixed from the front and rear directions.

[0014] 3.
