Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of beer production technology, and in particular to a beer filling and capping mechanism. Background Technology
[0002] Beer is a low-alcohol beverage containing carbon dioxide, brewed from barley malt, hops, and water as the main raw materials through yeast fermentation. Its alcohol content is generally low, usually around 3%-10%. After beer production, it needs to be filled into containers and then capped. Currently, glass bottles are the most commonly used containers. When capping glass bottles, the capping machine uses multiple capping heads that rotate together with the feeding turntable. The overall structure is complex and not conducive to later maintenance and repair. Utility Model Content
[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide a beer filling and capping mechanism to solve the above-mentioned problems.
[0004] This utility model achieves the above objectives through the following technical solutions:
[0005] A beer filling and capping mechanism includes a conveying support assembly for transferring filled beer, a feeding assembly for feeding bottle caps on one side of the conveying support assembly, and a capping assembly for sealing the mouth of the conveyed beer bottle on one side of the feeding assembly. The capping assembly includes a vertically arranged hydraulic telescopic cylinder, a hollow movable rod slidably connected inside the hydraulic telescopic cylinder, a connecting plate fixed to the lower end of the movable rod, a movable column passing through the lower end of the movable rod, a base plate fixed to the lower end of the movable column, a magnetic suction cup embedded in the bottom of the base plate, a spring sleeved on the outer diameter of the movable column on the upper side of the base plate, and a clamping assembly for pressing the bottle cap between the connecting plate and the base plate. The clamping assembly is evenly distributed at least three locations, and includes an L-shaped rotating rod arranged on the outer ring of the base plate, a clamping arc seat fixed to the lower end of the L-shaped rotating rod, and a connecting rod connected to the L-shaped rotating rod on the outer ring of the connecting plate.
[0006] Further configuration: The connecting rod is rotatably connected to the connecting plate and the L-shaped rotating rod via a pin, and the L-shaped rotating rod is rotatably connected to the chassis.
[0007] Further details: The clamping arc seats are combined into a circular structure, and raised teeth are provided on the inner side of the clamping arc seats.
[0008] Further configuration: The movable column and the movable rod are slidably connected.
[0009] Further configuration: The feeding assembly includes a beam frame, on which a vibrating feeding disc is installed. The discharge port of the vibrating feeding disc is connected to a slide rail, and the end of the slide rail is connected to a storage cylinder. The storage cylinder is vertically arranged. A support shaft is vertically arranged on one side of the beam frame. An arc-shaped disc is arranged on the support shaft. A sink groove corresponding to the storage cylinder is arranged on the arc-shaped disc. A swinging component that causes the support shaft to swing is connected to the lower end of the support shaft.
[0010] Further configuration: The swing assembly includes a lever fixed to a support shaft, and an electrically operated telescopic rod is connected to the lever.
[0011] Further configuration: The electric telescopic rod, the actuating rod, and the conveyor support assembly are rotatably connected by a pin, and the support shaft is rotatably connected to the conveyor support assembly.
[0012] Further configuration: The conveyor support assembly includes a bracket, on which a conveyor belt is mounted. A housing is mounted on the rear side of the bracket, and a rotating shaft is vertically mounted on the housing. Two rotating discs are fixed on the rotating shaft. An arc-shaped groove is opened on the outer ring of the rotating discs. A power component is connected to the lower end of the rotating discs. A protective cover is mounted on the upper side of the housing outside the rotating discs.
[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:
[0014] By using a feeding assembly and a capping assembly on the conveyor support assembly, the conveyor support assembly intermittently moves beer bottles to the underside of the capping assembly. Then, the feeding assembly transfers the bottle caps to the underside of the capping assembly. The hydraulic telescopic cylinder of the capping assembly extends downwards, causing the magnetic chuck on the underside of the chassis to attract the bottle caps. The hydraulic telescopic cylinder continues to extend, pressing the bottle caps onto the bottle mouth. Subsequently, the spring is compressed, and the movable column moves inwards. The connecting plate pushes the L-shaped rotating rod to rotate, causing the clamping arc seat to converge inwards, pressing the bottle caps onto the bottle mouth. Then, the hydraulic telescopic cylinder retracts upwards, and the clamping arc seat opens outwards until the magnetic chuck detaches from the bottle cap. This avoids the operation of multiple pressure heads during capping, resulting in a simple overall structure that facilitates later maintenance and improves ease of use. Attached Figure Description

After the conveyor belt 12 transports the filled beer bottles to the rotating disk 14, the beer bottles enter the arc-shaped groove of the rotating disk 14 and rotate with the interval of the rotating disk 14, moving to the lower side of the capping assembly.
[0030] In this embodiment: the feeding assembly includes a beam frame 21, on which a vibrating feeding disc 22 is mounted. A slide 23 is connected to the outlet of the vibrating feeding disc 22, and a storage cylinder 24 is connected to the end of the slide 23. The storage cylinder 24 is vertically arranged.

A swing assembly for swinging the support shaft 25 is connected to the lower end of the support shaft 25. The swing assembly includes a lever 27 fixed to the support shaft 25. An electric telescopic rod 28 is connected to the moving rod 27; the electric telescopic rod 28 is rotatably connected to the actuating rod 27 and the housing 15 via a pin, the support shaft 25 is rotatably connected to the housing 15, the actuating rod 27 is fixedly connected to the arc-shaped disk 26 and the support shaft 25, the bottle caps in the vibrating feeding tray 22 enter the storage cylinder 24 through the slide 23, and the extension and retraction of the electric telescopic rod 28 drives the arc-shaped disk 26 on the support shaft 25 to rotate through the actuating rod 27, so that the arc-shaped disk 26 moves the bottle caps in the storage cylinder 24 to the lower side of the capping assembly, providing the capping assembly with a sealed bottle cap.
[0031] In this embodiment: the capping assembly includes a vertically arranged hydraulic telescopic cylinder 31.
