[0028] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

Terms such as "up," "down," "left," and "right" are used only to indicate relative positional relationships; when the absolute position of the described object changes, the relative positional relationship may also change accordingly. An embodiment of this application discloses a conveyor dial with adjustable bottle feeding order.
[0030] The core of this invention is to provide a conveyor dial with adjustable bottle feeding order.
[0031] Please refer to Figure 1 The adjustable bottle feeding conveyor provided by this utility model includes a conveyor body 1. The conveyor body 1 is provided with a rotatable stop block 2 at each bottle feeding slot 7. The conveyor body 1 is provided with multiple adjustment components, each of which is used to rotate the corresponding stop block 2 so that the bottle feeding slot 7 is opened or closed.
[0032] Specifically, the dial body 1 has multiple bottle inlet slots 7 evenly arranged around its circumference. Each bottle inlet slot 7 is rotatably equipped with a stop block 2. By rotating the stop block 2, the opening of the bottle inlet slot 7 can be opened or closed (open state as shown in the figure). Figure 3 As shown, the off state is as follows Figure 4 (As shown). One end of each stop 2 is connected to the dial body 1 and forms a rotating end, allowing the stop 2 to rotate freely around the axis of the stop pin 3. The other end is the free end. This allows the stop 2 to flexibly open or close the bottle inlet slot 7 when needed, thereby controlling the bottle to enter the bottle inlet slot 7 or preventing the bottle from entering the bottle inlet slot 7. To achieve the rotation adjustment of the stop 2, multiple adjustment components are provided on the dial body 1, each corresponding to a stop 2, so as to realize the individual control of different stop 2.
[0033] The aforementioned adjustable bottle feeding conveyor effectively solves the problem caused by defective products appearing at one or more capping stations during the capping machine's production process. In practical applications, when a defective product appears at a capping station, the operator can quickly rotate the corresponding stop 2 using the adjusting component, thereby closing the bottle feeding slot 7 and preventing bottles from entering the capping station where the defective product was produced. In this way, the capping machine can continue production using other normal capping stations without stopping the machine, ensuring production efficiency and product quality.
[0034] The adjustable bottle feeding conveyor provided by this utility model will be described in more detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.
[0035] In one specific implementation, reference is made to... Figure 1 and Figure 2 One end of the stop block 2 is provided with a stop block pin 3, which is located at the bottle inlet groove 7 of the dial body 1, so that the stop block 2 can rotate around the axis of the stop block pin 3.
[0036] Specifically, the stop pin 3 serves as the rotation fulcrum for the stop 2 and is mounted on the dial body 1 beside each bottle inlet slot 7. The dial body 1 has a pin hole that mates with the stop pin 3. The stop pin 3 is inserted into the pin hole with an interference fit, ensuring its stable placement on the dial body 1. The stop 2 is connected to the dial body 1 via the stop pin 3, allowing it to rotate freely around the axis of the stop pin 3. The stop 2 and the stop pin 3 have a clearance fit. This allows the stop 2 to flexibly open or close the bottle inlet slot 7 as needed, achieving precise control over the bottle's entry into the capping station.
[0037] Based on any of the above embodiments, refer to Figure 2 The adjustment component includes a stop lever 4, which is located at the free end of the stop block 2. A groove 8 is provided on the dial body 1, and the stop lever 4 is slidably disposed in the groove 8 so that the stop block 2 rotates when the stop lever 4 slides in the groove 8.
[0038] Specifically, the stop lever 4, as the core part of the adjustment assembly, has one end connected to the free end of the stop block 2, and the other end slidingly engaged with the slide groove 8 on the dial body 1. This allows the operator to easily push or pull the stop lever 4 to slide it within the slide groove 8, thereby causing the stop block 2 to rotate around the stop pin 3.
[0039] Optionally, the connection between the stop lever 4 and the stop block 2 can be varied. In this embodiment, the stop lever 4 is inserted into a pre-drilled slot or hole on the free end of the stop block 2. When the stop lever 4 slides within the slide groove 8, it can effectively drive the stop block 2 to rotate together.
[0040] Optionally, the slide groove 8 can be straight, arc-shaped, or other shapes, depending on the angle and range of rotation required for the stop 2. In this embodiment, the slide groove 8 is preferably arc-shaped to facilitate the sliding and positioning of the stop lever 4. Simultaneously, guide grooves or protrusions can be provided on both sides of the slide groove 8 to further ensure the stability and accuracy of the stop lever 4 during the sliding process.
[0041] Based on any of the above embodiments, refer to Figure 2 The stop lever 4 includes a first end 41 and a second end 42 connected to each other. The second end 42 is inserted into the free end of the stop 2, and the first end 41 is slidably connected to the slide groove 8.
[0042] Specifically, the second end 42 of the stop lever 4 is connected to the free end of the stop 2 by a plug-in connection. This design allows the stop lever 4 to reliably transmit force to the stop 2, ensuring that the stop 2 can rotate in accordance with the movement of the stop lever 4 during sliding. The plug-in part can be designed with a suitable shape and size as needed to ensure the stability and reliability of the connection.
[0043] The first end 41 of the stop lever 4 is slidably connected to the slide groove 8. The slide groove 8 serves as the movement track for the stop lever 4, and its shape and size match the first end 41 of the stop lever 4 to ensure that the stop lever 4 can slide smoothly within the slide groove 8. To improve the smoothness and stability of the sliding, the inner wall of the slide groove 8 can be precision machined to reduce frictional resistance, and an appropriate amount of lubricant can be applied inside the slide groove 8.
[0044] Based on any of the above embodiments, refer to Figure 2 The slide groove 8 is provided with a lever positioning hole at the moving end near the outer edge of the dial body 1, and a positioning component is provided between the second end 42 and the stop block so that the second end 42 is positioned in the lever positioning hole.
[0045] Specifically, the slide groove 8 is located at the movable end near the outer edge of the dial body 1, and its size and shape match the first end 41, ensuring that when the stop lever 4 slides to the designated position, the first end 41 can be accurately inserted into the lever positioning hole with the help of the positioning component.
[0046] Furthermore, the stop block 2 has an installation groove at the second end 42. The positioning component includes a stop block lever sleeve 5 fixedly connected to one end of the second end 42, and the stop block lever sleeve 5 is slidably disposed in the installation groove. A spring 6 is provided between the stop block lever sleeve 5 and the bottom of the installation groove so that the stop block lever sleeve 5 moves toward the side away from the slide groove 8.
[0047] Specifically, the spring 6 ensures that the stop lever 4 is always in a depressed state. When the stop lever 4 is moved to the extended position, the spring 6 causes it to move downwards, allowing it to fall into the lever positioning hole on the dial body 1. This locks the positions of the stop lever 4 and the stop 2, preventing bottles from subsequently entering the bottle inlet slot.
[0048] Based on any of the above embodiments, refer to Figure 2 The stop lever sleeve 5 is fitted onto one end of the second end 42, and the stop lever sleeve 5 is interference-fitted with the second end 42.
[0049] Specifically, the stop lever sleeve 5 is fitted onto one end of the second end 42 and is connected to the second end 42 by an interference fit. This ensures a secure connection between the stop lever sleeve 5 and the second end 42, preventing loosening or detachment during sliding.
[0050] Based on any of the above embodiments, refer to Figure 2 The outer peripheral surface of the first end 41 is provided with anti-slip texture, which is distributed along the axial direction of the first end 41.
[0051] Specifically, the anti-slip texture on the outer circumference of the first end 41 effectively improves the feel and stability for the operator when pushing or pulling the stop lever 4. These anti-slip textures are distributed along the axial direction of the first end 41, forming a series of tiny protrusions or grooves, increasing the friction between the fingers and the first end 41. In practical applications, when operators need to adjust the bottle feeding order, they typically hold the first end 41 of the stop lever 4 and push or pull it along the groove 8. At this time, the anti-slip texture prevents the fingers from slipping due to insufficient friction during sliding, thus ensuring that the operator can accurately and stably control the sliding distance and positioning position of the stop lever 4.
[0052] It should be noted in this embodiment that, in order to improve the automation of the device, a drive mechanism can be provided on the dial body 1. The drive mechanism is used to drive the stop lever 4 to slide along the slide groove 8.
[0053] Specifically, the drive mechanism can greatly improve the efficiency and accuracy of bottle feeding order adjustment. Automated control reduces human error and fatigue, while simultaneously improving the overall operating efficiency of the production line.
[0054] Furthermore, the drive mechanism includes an electric actuator mounted on the dial body 1, with its output end hinged to the stop lever 4. This allows the electric actuator to flexibly push or pull the stop lever 4, causing it to slide along the groove 8. The electric actuator features fast response and high control precision, enabling accurate sliding and positioning of the stop lever 4.
[0055] Specifically, when the bottle feeding order needs to be adjusted, the control system sends a command to the electric actuator. The electric actuator outputs a corresponding pushing or pulling force according to the command, driving the stop lever 4 to slide along the slide groove 8 to the designated position. At this time, the stop lever 4 will drive the stop 2 to rotate around the stop pin 3, thereby realizing the opening or closing control of the bottle feeding groove 7.
[0056] Optionally, the drive mechanism may also include other types of actuators, such as pneumatic cylinders and hydraulic cylinders. These actuators can also achieve the sliding and positioning of the stop lever 4, but the specific choice of actuator needs to be comprehensively considered based on actual production needs and equipment conditions. For example, pneumatic cylinders have the advantages of simple structure and low price, but may be affected by the stability of the air source and pressure fluctuations; hydraulic cylinders have the characteristics of large output force and good stability, but may require more complex hydraulic systems and maintenance.
[0057] It should also be noted that, to further improve the automation and intelligence of the device, sensors and feedback devices can be installed on the drive mechanism. These sensors can monitor parameters such as the position and speed of the stop lever 4 in real time and feed this information back to the control system. The control system adjusts the output of the electric actuator based on the feedback information to ensure that the stop lever 4 can slide accurately and stably to the designated position, greatly improving the control accuracy and stability of the device.
[0058] The various embodiments in this specification are described in a progressive manner, with each embodiment focusing on the differences from other embodiments. The same or similar parts between the various embodiments can be referred to each other.
[0059] The above provides a detailed description of the adjustable bottle feeding conveyor provided by this utility model. Specific examples have been used to illustrate the principle and implementation of this utility model. The descriptions of the embodiments above are only for the purpose of helping to understand the method and core idea of this utility model. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make several improvements and modifications to this utility model without departing from the principle of this utility model, and these improvements and modifications also fall within the protection scope of this utility model.
