Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of medicine box conveying technology, and specifically to a medicine box adjustment mechanism for a strapping machine. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, after the medicines are boxed, they are transported to the boxing process via a conveyor line. During the boxing process, it is generally necessary to adjust all the medicine boxes to face the same direction to facilitate the boxing process. However, when the medicine boxes are transferred to the conveyor line corresponding to the boxing process, some medicine boxes may fall onto the conveyor line, causing them to be placed in different orientations. For example, some medicine boxes may stand on the conveyor line with the smaller side wall, while others may stand on the conveyor line with the larger side wall. This results in different overall heights of the medicine boxes after they are placed on the conveyor line. If the orientation of the medicine boxes is not adjusted to ensure that the height of the medicine boxes transported on the conveyor line is consistent, it will affect the boxing process and ultimately affect the production efficiency of the product. Utility Model Content

[0003] This invention addresses the problem of inconsistent overall height of medicine boxes after placement on the packing conveyor line, which affects the medicine box packing process. It provides a medicine box adjustment mechanism for a strapping machine, which can adjust the overall height of medicine boxes placed on the strapping machine conveyor line to be consistent, thus avoiding affecting the production efficiency of the products.

[0004] The technical solution adopted in this utility model is:

[0005] A tape-gluing and adjusting mechanism for a tape-gluing machine is provided, comprising:

[0006] A support platform with a conveyor line on top for conveying medicine boxes; a support frame located on top of the support platform, with a first screw hole on top of the support frame, through which a first adjusting rod is threadedly connected, and a connecting plate rotatably connected to the bottom of the first adjusting rod, with both ends of the connecting plate abutting against the inner wall of the support frame; and a lever located at the bottom of the connecting plate, with a gap between the bottom of the lever and the top of the conveyor line.

[0014] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0015] By tilting the medicine boxes onto the conveyor line, the boxes are transported along the line. As the boxes approach the pusher block, for some boxes whose overall height is greater than the distance between the bottom of the pusher block and the conveyor line, the bottom of the box is carried forward by the continuous operation of the conveyor line after the end of the box facing the pusher block contacts it. Meanwhile, the top of the box is restricted by the pusher block, causing the box to fall over on the conveyor line. This allows the box to pass through the gap between the pusher block and the conveyor line, so that when the boxes enter the packing process of the strapping machine, they can be neatly and uniformly bundled and packed.

[0031] The following disclosure provides many different embodiments or examples for implementing various structures of this invention. To simplify the disclosure, specific examples of components and arrangements are described below. Of course, these are merely examples and are not intended to limit the scope of this invention.

[0032] The embodiments of the utility model will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0033] Example 1

[0034] Please see Figure 1-6 As shown, this embodiment discloses an adjustment mechanism for a medicine box 7 used in a strapping machine, including a support platform 1. A conveyor line 2 is set on the top of the support platform 1 for conveying the medicine box 7. A support frame 3 is set on the top of the support platform 1. The support frame 3 is generally U-shaped and spans across the two sides of the outer support platform 1 of the conveyor line 2. A first screw hole 30 is opened on the top of the support frame 3. The central axis of the first screw hole 30 is perpendicular to the top of the conveyor line 2. A first adjusting rod 41 is threadedly connected to the top of the support frame 3 through the first screw hole 30, so that when the first adjusting rod 41 rotates, it can move vertically along the central axis of the first screw hole 30 on the top of the support frame 3. A connecting plate 4 is set at one end of the first adjusting rod 41 facing the conveyor line 2. The two ends of the connecting plate 4 abut against the inner wall surface of the support frame 3, that is, when the first adjusting rod 41 rotates, the connecting plate 4 is restricted by the support frame 3 and will not rotate with it. A lever 5 is provided on one end face of the connecting plate 4 facing the conveyor line 2. There is a gap between the bottom of the lever 5 and the top of the conveyor line 2, which allows the medicine box 7 to pass through.

[0035] During the process of the medicine box 7 passing through the gap between the bottom of the lever 5 and the top of the conveyor line 2, some medicine boxes 7 that tip over onto the conveyor line 2 will inevitably have different placement arrangements. Here, we will take... Figure 5 The instructions on the labeling of each side of the medicine box are provided in detail. Figure 5 In the diagram, three faces of medicine box 7 are labeled a, b, and c, and three edges are labeled L1, L2, and L3. After most of the medicine boxes 7 have been tilted onto conveyor line 2, as follows... Figure 1As shown, medicine boxes 7 may be arranged in different ways. In some cases, one medicine box 7 may lean against another medicine box 7, or some medicine boxes 7 may have their b side in contact with the top of the conveyor line 2, while some medicine boxes 7 may have their c side in contact with the top of the conveyor line 2. This results in the medicine boxes 7 that are finally sent to the strapping machine for bundling need to be manually adjusted, which increases the workload of the staff. After the deflector block 5 is installed, the gap between the bottom of the deflector block 5 and the top of the conveyor line 2 can restrict the medicine box 7. For example, when two or more medicine boxes 7 are leaning against one medicine box 7, the leaning medicine box 7 contacts the top of the conveyor line 2 with one of its edges, such as L1, while the medicine box 7 located under the leaning medicine box 7 contacts the top of the conveyor line 2 with one of its end faces, such as face a. Before the medicine box 7 passes through the gap between the deflector block 5 and the conveyor line 2, the leaning medicine box 7 will be blocked by the deflector block 5. At this time, since the conveyor line 2 is running continuously, the medicine box 7 located under the leaning medicine box 7 can pass through the gap. The size of this gap is equal to L3. After the leaning medicine box 7 is blocked by the deflector block 5, it is conveyed away with the medicine box 7 below it. Without support, the leaning medicine box 7 will fall onto the top of the conveyor line 2. After the end face, such as face a, contacts the top of the conveyor line 2, it is conveyed through the gap between the toggle block 5 and the conveyor line 2. In addition, there may be cases where the smaller face, face b or face c, contacts the top of the conveyor line 2. When the medicine box 7 is conveyed to the vicinity of the toggle block 5 in this case, the toggle block 5 will block the medicine box 7. At this time, the medicine box 7 may touch the toggle block 5 with face a, face c, or a certain edge connecting with the toggle block 5, such as the three edges L1, L2, or L3. In this case, due to the continuous operation of the conveyor line 2, the bottom of the medicine box 7 will fall towards the input end of the conveyor line 2 due to the friction and the blocking effect of the toggle block 5. At this time, the medicine box 7 can be conveyed through the gap between the toggle block 5 and the conveyor line 2.

[0036] In the above embodiment, the bottom of the lever 5 is set as an inclined surface. On the bottom end face of the lever 5, the side farther from the top of the conveyor line 2 faces the input end of the conveyor line 2, and the side closer to the top of the conveyor line 2 faces the output end of the conveyor line 2. When the medicine box 7 is blocked by the lever 5 and has a tendency to tip over, the inclined lever 5 makes the blocking position of the lever 5 on the medicine box 7 relatively higher, making it easier for the medicine box 7 to tip over to the top of the conveyor line 2 and then be conveyed through the gap. In addition, to prevent the medicine box 7 from falling off the conveyor line 2 during the conveying process, baffles 20 located on both sides of the conveyor line 2 are provided on the top of the support platform 1 to prevent the medicine box 7 from falling off the conveyor line 2.

[0037] The support platform 1 is topped with two support blocks 6, located on the outer sides of the support frame 3. Second through holes 32, aligned with the central axis, are formed on the side walls of the support frame 3. Each support block 6 has a telescopic rod 60 at its top. The working end of each telescopic rod 60 passes through the corresponding second through hole 32 and extends into the interior of the support frame 3. A horizontal plate 61 is positioned on the working end face of each telescopic rod 60. The end face of the horizontal plate 61 away from the end face connected to the telescopic rod 60 is located above the conveyor line 2, and the horizontal plate 61 does not touch the baffle 20. During the conveying process of the medicine box 7, some special situations may arise, which are described here... Figure 5 For the sake of illustration, if the medicine box 7 is in contact with the top of the conveyor line 2 with side b and side a is in close contact with the inner wall of the baffle 20, after the medicine box 7 is conveyed to a position close to the lever 5, side c of the medicine box 7 will then come into contact with the lever 5. Since the three sides a, b, and c of the lever 5 are in close contact with the top of the conveyor line 2, the inner wall of the baffle 20, and the blocking surface of the lever 5 respectively, the medicine box 7 will be difficult to tip over due to the obstruction of the lever 5. At this time, the telescopic rod 60 located on the support block 6 can be operated. Figure 6 As shown, the telescopic rod 60 extends its working end toward the interior of the support frame 3 until the horizontal plate 61 on the working end of the telescopic rod 60 touches the medicine box 7, pushing the medicine box 7 so that the medicine box 7 is placed on the top of the conveyor line 2 with its a-side in contact with the top of the conveyor line 2 and is conveyed, thus avoiding excessive accumulation of medicine boxes 7 and causing blockage.

[0038] Example 2

[0039] This embodiment is a further optimization based on Embodiment 1. For details, please refer to [link / reference needed]. Figure 1-4The lever 5 includes a fixed plate 50, an adjusting frame 51, an adjusting plate 52, and a pull plate 53. One end of the fixed plate 50 is fixedly connected to the outer bottom of the connecting plate 4. The adjusting frame 51 is generally U-shaped, and one end of the adjusting frame 51 is hinged to the outer bottom of the fixed plate 50, allowing the adjusting frame 51 to rotate about the junction with the fixed plate 50 as the axis of rotation, with a rotation angle range of 30° to 60°. Slide grooves 510 are respectively formed on the opposite inner wall surfaces of the adjusting frame 51, and sliders 520 are disposed inside the slide grooves 510, allowing the sliders 520 to slide and connect with the adjusting frame 51 through the slide grooves 510. An adjusting plate 52 is disposed between the two sliders 520, allowing the adjusting plate 52 to slide and connect with the adjusting frame 51 through the sliders 520. One end of the pull plate 53 is hinged to the end of the adjusting plate 52 away from the adjusting frame 51, allowing the pull plate 53 to rotate about the hinge point with the adjusting frame 51 as the axis of rotation. At the other end of the pull plate 53, opposite to the hinge point of the adjusting plate 52, a second adjusting rod 42 is rotatably connected. To allow the second adjusting rod 42 to pass through the connecting plate 4, a second screw hole 40 is provided at the bottom of the connecting plate 4, enabling the second adjusting rod 42 to rotatably connect with the connecting plate 4. A first through hole 31 is also provided at the inner bottom of the support frame 3, allowing the free end of the second adjusting rod 42 to be located on the top outer side of the support frame 3. This means that by rotating the second adjusting rod 42 located outside the top of the support frame 3, the second adjusting rod 42 rotates inside the connecting plate 4 through the second screw hole 40. When the second adjusting rod 42 rotates, it will screw along the central axis of the second screw hole 40 towards the conveyor line 2. The feed mechanism causes the pull plate 53, which is rotatably connected to the second adjusting rod 42, to move toward the conveyor line 2. During the movement of the pull plate 53, the angle between the adjusting plate 52 and the pull plate 53 is adjusted because the pull plate 53 and the adjusting plate 52 are hinged. At this time, the gap between the pull plate 53 and the fixed plate 50 remains unchanged, while the adjusting plate 52 rotates and adjusts as the pull plate 53 moves. The adjusting frame 51, which is slidably connected to the outer wall of the adjusting plate 52 by the slider 520, can provide an adjustment distance for the fixed plate 50. During the movement of the adjusting plate 52, the different height positions that the hinge position of the adjusting plate 52 and the pull plate 53 can touch on the medicine boxes 7 of different sizes are reached, so that the medicine boxes 7 can be quickly tilted onto the conveyor line 2 for conveying under the obstruction of the pull plate 53.

[0040] In the above embodiments, the edges of the fixing plate 50, the adjusting frame 51, the adjusting plate 52 and the pull plate 53 are all rounded, and a silicone protective pad (not shown in the figure) is provided on the outer wall surface that contacts the medicine box 7. This can prevent the medicine box 7 from being damaged by collision when it touches the pull plate 53, tilts onto the conveyor line 2 and passes through the gap between the fixing plate 50 and the conveyor line 2, thus affecting the utilization rate of the product.

[0041] Finally, it should be noted that the above are merely preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. For those skilled in the art, the present invention can have various modifications and variations. Without conflict, the embodiments and features described in the embodiments of this application can be arbitrarily combined with each other. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included within the protection scope of the present invention.
