[0025] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.
[0026] Example 1, please refer to Figures 1-5This utility model is an automatic cleaning and drying integrated machine for Chinese medicine oral liquid bottles, including a box body 1. A servo motor 2 is fixedly connected to one side of the inner cavity of the box body 1, and a material tray 3 is fixedly connected to the surface of the output shaft of the servo motor 2. A cleaning and drying device 4 is set on the other side of the inner cavity of the box body 1. An automatic feeding component is set on the top of the box body 1. The automatic feeding component includes a material box 5 fixedly connected to the top of the box body 1, a mounting plate 6 fixedly connected to one side of the material box 5, a rotating plate 7 set on the top of the mounting plate 6, an electric push rod 8 fixedly connected to the bottom of the mounting plate 6, and a photoelectric sensor 9 fixedly connected to the top of the mounting plate 6. A conveying component is set in the inner cavity of the box body 1. The conveying component includes a drive motor 10 fixedly connected to the inner cavity of the box body 1, a conveying roller 11 fixedly connected to the surface of the output shaft of the drive motor 10, and a conveyor belt 12 that is drivenly connected to the surface of the conveying roller 11.
[0027] Further details: The cleaning and drying equipment 4 (which is existing technology, using high-pressure water flow and high-pressure gas to clean and dry oral liquid bottles, is not an innovation of this utility model, so it is not described) has a funnel-shaped material box 5 to facilitate the oral liquid bottles falling under gravity. The photoelectric sensor 9 (existing technology) uses the principle of infrared diffuse reflection. When the reflectivity of the bottle mouth is detected to be lower than the set threshold, it is determined to be placed in reverse and triggers a flipping action. There are two conveying rollers 11. The output shaft surface of the drive motor 10 drives the conveyor belt 12 to move through the conveying rollers 11 to facilitate material discharge.
[0028] Example 2, please refer to Figures 1-5 Based on Embodiment 1, an annular baffle 13 is fixedly connected to the inner cavity of the box 1. Eight placement holes 21 are provided on the surface of the material tray 3, and they are opened at equal angles around the circumference. A tilting motor 14 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the mounting plate 6. A first bevel gear 15 is fixedly connected to the surface of the output shaft of the tilting motor 14. A second bevel gear 16 meshes with the surface of the first bevel gear 15. A rotating shaft 17 is fixedly connected to the center of the second bevel gear 16. One end of the rotating shaft 17 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the rotating plate 7. The electric push... A movable plate is fixedly connected to the telescopic end of rod 8, and a top material rod 22 is fixedly connected to one side of the movable plate. There are two top material rods 22, and the length of one top material rod 22 is twice the length of the other top material rod 22. A through groove 18 is provided on one side of the box body 1. A cleaning liquid tank 19 is fixedly connected to the top of the cleaning and drying equipment 4. A guide plate 20 is fixedly connected to the inner cavity of the box body 1. A through groove 18 is provided on one side of the box body 1. A cleaning liquid tank 19 is fixedly connected to the top of the cleaning and drying equipment 4. A guide plate 20 is fixedly connected to the inner cavity of the box body 1.
[0029] Further details: By designing eight placement holes 21, simultaneous feeding, cleaning, drying, and unloading can be achieved, improving work efficiency. By designing annular baffles 13, the oral liquid bottles are dried during the cleaning and drying process, causing them to detach. Through the cooperation of a flip motor 14, a first bevel gear 15, and a second bevel gear 16, the output shaft of the flip motor 14 drives the rotating shaft 17 to rotate via the first bevel gear 15 and the second bevel gear 16. The rotating shaft 17 drives the rotating plate 7 to rotate 180 degrees, thereby changing the orientation of the oral liquid bottle opening. By designing a cleaning liquid tank 19, cleaning liquid can be supplied to the cleaning guns in the cleaning and drying equipment 4. By designing three cleaning guns and three drying guns, the cleaning and drying effects are improved.
[0030] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: The oral liquid bottle is placed in the material box 5. Under the action of gravity, the oral liquid bottle falls onto the rotating plate 7. The photoelectric sensor 9 detects the orientation of the oral liquid bottle opening. When the orientation does not conform to the design, the photoelectric sensor 9 sends a signal to the external controller (existing technology). The external controller starts through the flip motor 14. The output shaft of the flip motor 14 drives the rotating shaft 17 to rotate through the first bevel gear 15 and the second bevel gear 16. The rotating shaft 17 drives the rotating plate 7 to rotate 180 degrees, thereby changing the orientation of the oral liquid bottle opening. There is no need to manually adjust the bottle opening orientation, and the working efficiency is high.
[0031] Then, the external controller controls the electric push rod 8 to start. The electric push rod 8 pushes the oral liquid bottle into the inner cavity of the placement hole 21 through the top material rod 22. The external controller controls the servo motor 2 to start. The servo motor 2 pauses for a certain period of time after rotating a set angle to ensure that each station gets sufficient processing time. The output shaft of the servo motor 2 drives the material tray 3 to rotate. The cleaning gun cleans the oral liquid bottle, and the drying gun dries the oral liquid bottle after cleaning. Finally, the oral liquid bottle that has been cleaned and dried falls onto the surface of the conveyor belt 12 under the action of the top material rod 22. The output shaft of the drive motor 10 drives the conveyor belt 12 to move through the conveyor roller 11. The conveyor belt 12 moves the oral liquid bottle to achieve discharge.
[0032] The foregoing description only illustrates certain exemplary embodiments of the present invention. Undoubtedly, those skilled in the art can modify the described embodiments in various ways without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Therefore, the above drawings and descriptions are illustrative in nature and should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of the claims of the present invention.
