Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of mechanical equipment technology, and in particular to a mechanism for transferring and unloading assembled defoaming dripping buckets. Background Technology

[0002] With the continuous development of society and the continuous progress of the medical industry, intravenous infusion has become the most common treatment method in daily care. During intravenous infusion, medication needs to be delivered into the body through an infusion set, making the infusion set the most important tool for intravenous infusion.

[0003] Infusion sets typically include a stopper puncturist, precision filter, tubing, drip chamber, flow regulator, and intravenous infusion needle. Currently, in drip chambers, the impact of the dripping medication on the liquid surface generates air bubbles. These bubbles could potentially enter the body with the medication, posing a safety hazard. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a production line to assemble and manufacture defoaming drip chambers. These defoaming drip chambers include a drip chamber body, a two-way tube, a drip chamber cap, and a diverter umbrella, which can effectively eliminate air bubbles generated within the drip chamber, preventing hazards such as air embolism.

[0004] In the defoaming dripping bucket production line, a mechanism needs to be designed to transfer and unload the assembled defoaming dripping buckets from one station to the next station to continue the subsequent related processes. Utility Model Content

[0005] In order to solve the problems existing in the prior art, this application proposes a mechanism for transferring and unloading the combined defoaming dripping bucket.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this application proposes a mechanism for transferring and unloading assembled defoaming dripping containers, comprising a support frame, wherein the support top plate of the support frame is U-shaped, and a slide rail is provided on the support top plate along the front-rear direction. A slider cooperating with the slide rail is fixed to the lower surface of a sliding plate. A first cylinder is mounted on the sliding plate and is connected to a transfer plate. Under the action of the first cylinder, the transfer plate can perform lifting and lowering movements. A pneumatic gripper mounting plate is connected to the lower surface of the transfer plate, and the pneumatic gripper mounting plate is provided with N unloading pneumatic grippers, where N is a positive integer. Each unloading pneumatic gripper has two cooperating unloading grippers. For gripping materials, a cylinder mounting plate is provided at the front end of the upper surface of the support top plate of the support frame. A second cylinder is mounted in the middle of the cylinder mounting plate. The second cylinder is connected to the sliding plate. When the second cylinder is driven to move, the sliding plate can move back and forth along the slide rail. Two third cylinders are also mounted at intervals on the cylinder mounting plate. The two third cylinders are located on the left and right sides of the second cylinder. Each third cylinder has a top cylinder head at the end of its telescopic rod. The top cylinder head faces the sliding plate. When the third cylinder is driven to move, the top cylinder head acts on the sliding plate, causing the sliding plate to move backward.

[0007] In some embodiments, the support frame includes a support base plate, two support uprights disposed opposite to each other on the support base plate, and a support top plate connected to the upper end of the two support uprights.

[0008] In some embodiments, a guide shaft is connected to the upper surface of the adapter plate. The guide shaft is used in conjunction with a linear bearing disposed on the sliding plate. A limit plate is connected to the top end of the guide shaft. A buffer is provided on the limit plate. The buffer is used in conjunction with a buffer pad disposed on the upper surface of the sliding plate to limit the downward movement of the unloading claw.

[0009] In some embodiments, a limiting mechanism is further provided on the upper surface of the support top plate to limit the travel of the sliding plate backward.

[0010] In some embodiments, a defective product receiving box is also provided on the support frame for receiving defective products from the unloading claw, and the defective product receiving box is connected between the two support plates.

[0011] The beneficial effect of this solution is that the aforementioned mechanism for transferring and unloading the assembled defoaming dripping bucket can unload the assembled defoaming dripping bucket from one station to the next, and can remove unqualified products that were detected by the relevant stations before without the dripping bucket body and the two-way pipe assembly, so that qualified products can continue to the subsequent relevant processes.

[0019] like Figures 1-4 As shown, the mechanism for transferring and unloading the assembled defoaming dripping bucket involved in this application includes a support frame. The support frame includes a support base plate v1, two support upright plates v2 disposed opposite to each other on the support base plate v1, and a support top plate v3 connected to the upper end of the two support upright plates v2. The support top plate v3 is U-shaped, that is, the middle part of the support top plate v3 is hollow.

[0020] A slide rail v4 is provided along the front-rear direction on the support top plate v3 of the support frame. A slider v5, which cooperates with the slide rail v4, is fixed to the lower surface of the sliding plate v6. A first cylinder v7 is mounted on the sliding plate v6. The first cylinder v7 is connected to the adapter plate v8 via a first floating joint. Under the action of the first cylinder v7, the adapter plate v8 can move up and down. A pneumatic gripper mounting plate v9 is connected to the lower surface of the adapter plate v8. The pneumatic gripper mounting plate v9 is provided with N unloading pneumatic grippers v10, where N is a positive integer. Each unloading gripper... The pneumatic gripper v10 is equipped with two cooperating unloading claws v11 for gripping materials. A guide shaft v12 (e.g., two) is connected to the upper surface of the adapter plate v8. The guide shaft v12 cooperates with the linear bearing v13 provided on the sliding plate v6. The top end of the guide shaft v12 is connected to a limit plate v14. The limit plate v14 is equipped with a buffer v15. The buffer v15 cooperates with the buffer pad v16 provided on the upper surface of the sliding plate v6 to limit the downward movement of the unloading claws v11.

[0021] A cylinder mounting plate v17 is provided at the front end of the upper surface of the support top plate v3 of the support frame. A second cylinder v18 is mounted at the middle position of the cylinder mounting plate v17. The second cylinder v18 is connected to the sliding plate v6 via a second floating joint. When the second cylinder v18 is driven to move, the sliding plate v6 can move back and forth along the slide rail v4. A limiting mechanism v21 is also provided on the upper surface of the support top plate v3 to limit the backward movement of the sliding plate v6. Two third cylinders v19 are also mounted at intervals on the cylinder mounting plate v17. The two third cylinders v19 are located on the left and right sides of the second cylinder v18. Each third cylinder v19 has a top cylinder head at the end of its telescopic rod. The top cylinder head faces the sliding plate v6. When the third cylinder v19 is driven to move, the top cylinder head acts on the sliding plate v6, which can make the sliding plate v6 move backward.

[0022] The support frame is also provided with a defective product receiving box v22 for receiving defective products from the unloading claw v11. Specifically, the defective product receiving box v22 is connected between the two support plates v2.

[0023] In this embodiment, the material (i.e., the assembled defoaming dripper) is located in the storage fixture n, and the unloading claw v11 obtains the material from the storage fixture n. The mechanism for transferring and unloading the assembled defoaming dripper is set on the workbench i. A drive mechanism j is provided at the center of the workbench i. The drive mechanism j can drive the rotating plate k to rotate. In this embodiment, the drive mechanism j may include a motor and a cam box. The turntable of the cam box is connected to the rotating plate k. By controlling the motor to move, the rotating plate k can be rotated. The fixed plate m is located above the rotating plate k and is stationary relative to the workbench i. Specifically, the fixed plate m can be fixed to the workbench i by a connector. The fixed plate m can also be fixed to the fixed plate of the cam box. Several storage fixtures n are provided at equal intervals along the circumference on the rotating plate k. The storage fixtures n are used to store materials, such as the assembled defoaming dripper.

[0024] In practical use, the relevant workstations in the defoaming dripping bucket production line have detected whether there are any defective products in the storage fixture n. This detection refers to checking whether the product includes the combination of the dripping bucket body A01 and the two-way pipe A02. If not, it is recorded as a defective product. Then, the rotating plate k is controlled to rotate, causing the storage fixture n, which carries the assembled defoaming dripping bucket, to rotate to the mechanism described in this application that transfers and unloads the assembled defoaming dripping bucket. By controlling the first cylinder v7, the unloading claw v11 descends to grab the material in the storage fixture n. Then, the unloading claw v11 rises. Initially, the sliding plate v6 is located at the front end, close to the storage fixture n. When a defective product is present, the control... The third cylinder v19 is activated, and the top cylinder head acts on the sliding plate v6, causing the sliding plate v6 to move backward a preset distance, so that the unloading claw v11 is above the defective product receiving box v22. By controlling the corresponding unloading claw v10, the unloading claw v11 holding the defective product is released, allowing the defective product (the combination of the dripping bucket cover A03 and the diverting umbrella A04) to fall into the defective product receiving box v22. Then, the second cylinder v18 is activated, causing the sliding plate v6 to continue moving backward to a preset position. The other unloading claws v10 are activated, causing the unloading claws v11 holding the qualified product to release, unloading the qualified product to the next workstation, allowing the qualified product to continue to the subsequent related processes.

[0025] The mechanism involved in this application for transferring and unloading assembled defoaming drippers can unload assembled defoaming drippers from one station to the next, and can remove unqualified products that were detected at previous stations without the dripper body and two-way pipe assembly, allowing qualified products to continue to the subsequent related processes.

[0026] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this application, but the scope of protection of this application is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or modifications made by those skilled in the art within the scope of the technology disclosed in this application, based on the technical solution and concept of this application, should be included within the scope of protection of this application.
