[0001] This utility model relates to a cup-pushing structure, and more particularly to a double-cylinder cup-pushing structure for filling and conveying. Background Technology

[0002] In the beverage filling process, empty cups need to be accurately pushed sequentially from the conveyor belt to the filling station for filling. This dual-cylinder cup-pushing structure can efficiently and stably complete the cup-pushing task, ensuring the smooth operation of the filling production line. Whether it's a plastic or glass beverage cup, it can be adapted by adjusting the cylinder parameters and the settings of the cup-pushing components.

[0003] In the prior art, some dual-cylinder cup-pushing devices move finished cups from the production line onto a conveyor belt so that the finished cups can be moved to the next process. When the finished cups are placed on the conveyor belt, due to the continuous movement of the conveyor belt, the finished cups may become misaligned or directly detach from the conveyor belt during the placement and movement process, resulting in waste of finished cups. Furthermore, the detached finished cups may affect other finished cups that are moving normally. Therefore, this application provides a dual-cylinder cup-pushing structure for filling and conveying to meet the requirements. Utility Model Content

[0004] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is that after the finished cup leaves the conveyor belt, it will affect other normally moving finished cups. In view of the defects of the prior art, a double cylinder cup pushing structure for filling and conveying is provided to solve some of the problems of the existing double cylinder cup pushing devices.

[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model adopts the following technical solution: a double-cylinder cup-pushing structure for filling and conveying, comprising: a support base; a discharge section located on the support base for transporting the produced cup-shaped material to the next process; multiple sets of support blocks installed around the top of the support base; a conveying section located on the support base and fixed to the support base by the multiple sets of support blocks, and configured to move the cup-shaped material to the bottom of the discharge section through the conveying section; a cup-pushing assembly located on the support base for moving the cup-shaped material in the conveying section to the discharge section; and an adjusting section located on the discharge section for preventing the cup-shaped material from detaching in the discharge section.

[0006] Preferably, the discharge section includes: two sets of fixed plates, which are respectively installed on both sides of the support base; and a conveyor belt, which is installed on the two sets of fixed plates, and the conveyor belt moves in the direction of carrying the cup-shaped material from one set of fixed plates to the other set of fixed plates.

[0007] Preferably, the conveying section includes: a conveying frame, installed on top of multiple sets of support blocks; several sets of support rods, all installed in the conveying frame, and configured such that the projections of the support rods are perpendicular to the conveyor belt; several sets of electric slide rails, with one set of electric slide rails installed on the top of each set of support rods; several sets of material receiving plates, all located on the top of the support rods, and configured such that the several sets of electric slide rails jointly support any one set of material receiving plates, so that the material receiving plates move in the direction of the conveyor belt; and several sets of storage slots, with several sets of storage slots provided on each set of material receiving plates, and configured such that one set of storage slots is provided between two sets of support rods for placing cup-shaped materials.

[0008] Preferably, the cup-pushing assembly includes: a fixed frame, mounted on two sets of fixed plates and located on one side of the conveyor belt; two sets of cylinders, mounted on the fixed frame; a connecting plate, mounted on the bottom of the two sets of cylinders; and several sets of clamps, each set of placement slots corresponding to one set of clamps, for clamping the cup-shaped material in the placement slots onto the conveyor belt.

[0009] Preferably, the adjustment unit includes: two sets of limiting frames, each set of fixed plates having a limiting frame installed at the top, and the conveyor belt passing through the two sets of limiting frames; and two sets of limiting plates, each set of limiting plates having its ends connected to a limiting frame, and being configured such that the two sets of limiting plates move closer to each other in the direction of the conveyor belt, so that the cup-shaped material forms a straight line as it moves with the conveyor belt.

[0015] This utility model adopts the above technical solution, and compared with the prior art, it has the following technical effects: In the above solution, by setting an adjustment part, the two sets of limiting frames and two sets of limiting plates of the adjustment part are cleverly arranged. The conveyor belt passes through the two sets of limiting frames, and the two sets of limiting plates move closer to each other following the conveyor belt's conveying direction, so that the cup-shaped material can form a straight line as it moves with the conveyor belt. This helps to overcome the problem in the prior art that finished cups easily deviate from the normal movement path or even fall off the conveyor belt when moving on the conveyor belt due to the lack of effective limiting, ensuring the stability and accuracy of material conveying and reducing the possibility of wasting finished cups.

Detailed Implementation

[0026] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.

[0027] Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.

[0028] Example 1: As Figures 1 to 6 As shown, an embodiment of this utility model provides a filling and conveying double-cylinder 11 cup-pushing structure, including: a support base 1; a discharge section located on the support base 1 for transporting the produced cup-shaped material to the next process; multiple sets of support blocks 2 installed around the top of the support base 1; a conveying section located on the support base 1 and fixed to the support base 1 by the multiple sets of support blocks 2, and configured to move the cup-shaped material to the bottom of the discharge section through the conveying section; a cup-pushing assembly located on the support base 1 for moving the cup-shaped material in the conveying section to the discharge section; and an adjusting section located on the discharge section for preventing the cup-shaped material from detaching in the discharge section.

[0029] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the discharge section includes: two sets of fixed plates 3, which are respectively installed on both sides of the support base 1; and a conveyor belt 4, which is installed on the two sets of fixed plates 3, and the conveyor belt 4 moves in the direction of carrying the cup-shaped material from one set of fixed plates 3 to the other set of fixed plates 3.

[0030] It should be noted that the fixing plate 3 is fixed to the support base 1 by a screw, and the conveyor belt 4 is installed on the fixing plate 3 for support. The conveyor belt 4 can be roller type, and the drive motor drives the conveyor belt 4 to roll, thereby moving the material at the top of the conveyor belt 4. In this utility model, only the section of the conveyor belt 4 where the material is placed is described, and the entire conveyor belt 4 is not included.

[0031] like Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 5As shown, the material conveying section includes: a material conveying frame 5, installed on the top of multiple sets of support blocks 2; several sets of support rods 6, all installed in the material conveying frame 5, and configured such that the projections of the several sets of support rods 6 are perpendicular to the conveyor belt 4; several sets of electric slide rails 7, with one set of electric slide rails 7 installed on the top of each set of support rods 6; several sets of material receiving plates 8, all located on the top of the support rods 6, and configured such that the several sets of electric slide rails 7 jointly support any set of material receiving plates 8, so that the material receiving plates 8 can move in the direction of the conveyor belt; and several sets of storage slots 9, with several sets of storage slots 9 opened on each set of material receiving plates 8, and configured such that one set of storage slots 9 is opened between two sets of support rods 6 for placing cup-shaped materials.

[0032] It should be noted that an electric track generally consists of a track, moving parts (such as sliders, trolleys, etc.), a motor, a transmission device, a control system, and a power supply device. The moving parts drive the material support plate 8 to slide on the top of the support rod 6. The attached drawings only show the track part.

[0033] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, the cup-pushing assembly includes: a fixed frame 10, mounted on two sets of fixed plates 3 and located on one side of the conveyor belt 4; two sets of cylinders 11, mounted on the fixed frame 10; a connecting plate 12, mounted on the bottom of the two sets of cylinders 11; and several sets of clamps, each set of placement slots 9 corresponding to one set of clamps, used to clamp the cup-shaped material in the placement slots 9 onto the conveyor belt.

[0034] like Figure 3 As shown, the adjustment unit includes: two sets of limiting frames 13, each set of fixed plates 3 having a set of limiting frames 13 installed at its top, and the conveyor belt 4 passing through the two sets of limiting frames 13; and two sets of limiting plates 14, each set of limiting plates 14 having its two ends connected to a set of limiting frames 13, and being configured so that the two sets of limiting plates 14 move closer to each other in the direction of conveyor belt 4, so that the cup-shaped material forms a straight line as it moves with the conveyor belt 4.

[0035] like Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, it also includes: anti-slip texture 15, installed at the top of the conveyor belt 4, to reduce the friction between the cup-shaped material and the conveyor belt 4.

[0036] like Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, it also includes: anti-slip texture 16, which is installed on the two sets of limiting blocks and located on the same side as each other, to reduce the friction between the side wall of the cup-shaped material and the limiting plate 14.

[0037] like Figures 1 to 2 As shown, the cup-pushing assembly also includes an extension plate 17, which is mounted on the fixed frame 10 and is used to drive the two sets of cylinders 11 to move in the direction of the conveyor belt 4.

[0038] It should be noted that, through the existing control system, the two sets of cylinders 11 are controlled to slide in the groove at the bottom of the extension plate 17, so that the clamps can move the cup-shaped material above the conveyor belt 4 and then release it.

[0039] like Figure 2 As shown, the clamp includes: a suction cup 18, which is installed at the bottom of the connecting plate 12 and is used to pick up cup-shaped materials; and clamping parts 19, which are installed on both sides of the suction cup 18 and are used to clamp the side walls of the picked-up cup-shaped materials.

[0040] It should be noted that the suction cup component 18 includes a suction cup and a negative pressure component. The negative pressure component evacuates the gas from the cup-shaped material, and then the suction cup picks up the cup-shaped material. Finally, the clamping component 19, which includes two sets of clamping arms, clamps and fixes the material.

[0041] The material support plate 8 is connected to the conveyor frame 5 on both sides, and is configured to slide over the bottom of the conveyor belt 4 when the material support plate 8 slides on the conveyor frame 5.

[0042] In the above scheme, the various operations of the electric track, suction cup 18, clamping component 19 and two sets of cylinders 11 sliding on the extension plate 17 are all existing technologies, controlled by existing control systems, and are well known in the field. Those who practice in this industry are already aware of them, so they will not be described in detail here.

[0043] The technical solution provided by this utility model involves a material support plate 8 located at the top of a support rod 6 within a conveying frame 5. Each material support plate 8 has several sets of placement slots 9, with one set of placement slots 9 positioned between two sets of support rods 6 for placing cup-shaped materials. When the device is started, the electric slide rails 7 located at the top of the support rods 6 begin to operate. Several sets of electric slide rails 7 jointly support any set of material support plates 8, causing the material support plate 8 to move towards the conveyor belt 4. The sides of the material support plate 8 are connected to the conveying frame 5 and can slide on the conveying frame 5. When it slides to the bottom of the fixed frame 10, it is located at... Directly below the clamp, two sets of cylinders 11 on the fixed frame 10 are activated, driving the connecting plate 12 installed at its bottom to move downwards. Several sets of clamps are installed on the connecting plate 12, each set of clamps corresponding to a set of placement slots 9. The suction cup 18 in the clamp first sucks up the cup-shaped material in the placement slot 9, while the clamping parts 19 on both sides clamp the side walls of the cup-shaped material to ensure that the cup-shaped material is stably grasped. Then the cylinder 11 begins to retract. Driven by the cylinder 11, the extension plate 17 drives the cylinder 11 to move a suitable distance in the direction of the conveyor belt 4. The cup-shaped material is gripped onto the conveyor belt 4. The gripping support plate 8 slides across the bottom of the conveyor belt 4, preparing for the next step of pushing the cup-shaped material onto the conveyor belt 4 and making room for the next set of support plates 8. After the cup-shaped material is placed on the conveyor belt 4, the conveyor belt 4 begins to move between the two sets of fixed plates 3, moving the cup-shaped material from one set of fixed plates 3 to the other. The anti-slip texture 15 at the top of the conveyor belt 4 reduces the friction between the cup-shaped material and the conveyor belt 4, allowing the cup-shaped material to move more smoothly on the conveyor belt 4. Simultaneously, the limiting frame 13 and limiting plate 14 installed at the top of each set of fixed plates 3 play their role. The two ends of the two sets of limiting plates 14 are respectively connected to a set of limiting frames 13, and they move closer to each other in the direction of conveyor belt 4, so that the cup-shaped material forms a straight line as it moves with the conveyor belt 4. The anti-slip texture 16 on the limiting plate 14 reduces the friction between the side wall of the cup-shaped material and the limiting plate 14, ensuring that the cup-shaped material moves stably and linearly on the conveyor belt 4, preventing it from falling out of the discharge section, until the cup-shaped material is transported to the next process.

[0044] Finally, the following points should be noted: First, in the description of this application, it should be noted that, unless otherwise specified and limited, the terms "installation", "connection", and "linkage" should be interpreted broadly, and can be mechanical or electrical connections, or internal connections between two components, or direct connections. "Up", "down", "left", "right", etc. are only used to indicate relative positional relationships. When the absolute position of the described object changes, the relative positional relationship may change.

[0045] Secondly, the accompanying drawings of the embodiments disclosed in this utility model only involve the structures involved in the embodiments disclosed in this utility model. Other structures can refer to the general design. In the absence of conflict, the same embodiment and different embodiments of this utility model can be combined with each other.

[0046] Finally, the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
