Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of conveying device technology, and in particular to a waste discharge mechanism for materials. Background Technology
[0002] After paper cups, paper bowls, and plastic cups are produced, they need to undergo visual inspection. Defective or substandard products are rejected to ensure the quality of the finished materials. Currently, visual inspection is performed on paper cups, paper bowls, and plastic cups after they are formed. The finished materials are inspected using machine vision technology to determine whether they are defective or good products. Defective and good products are then transported to separate defective and good product areas.
[0003] Currently, for lightweight materials such as paper cups, paper bowls, and plastic cups, the discharge process involves installing a vacuum-adsorption transfer pipe above the material discharge position of the forming machine. After material inspection, defective and good products are transferred to different transfer pipes via vacuum adsorption. These pipes then transport the materials to designated defective and good product areas. Since the defective and good product transfer pipes are two independent channels, the materials need to be switched to the appropriate transfer channel based on the inspection results. However, the existing device is not fast enough in sending the inspected materials into the defective and good product transfer pipes, resulting in insufficient discharge efficiency for defective materials. Utility Model Content

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides a waste discharge mechanism for materials, including a mounting plate and a waste discharge assembly. The waste discharge assembly includes a sleeve, a driving component, a cup-dividing bend, a support shaft, a support plate, a defective product discharge channel, and a good product discharge channel.

[0008] The waste discharge assembly further includes multiple guide components and guide rings; the multiple guide components are respectively located on the top of the mounting plate, and each guide component includes a mounting shaft and a bearing; the mounting shaft is fixedly connected to the mounting plate and is located on the top of the mounting plate; the inner ring of the bearing is fixedly connected to the mounting shaft and is located on the side of the mounting shaft, and the outer ring of the bearing is provided with an annular groove; the guide ring is fixedly connected to the synchronous pulley and is located at the bottom of the synchronous pulley.
[0009] The defective product discharge channel includes a defective product bend and a defective product discharge pipe; the defective product bend is fixedly connected to the support plate and is located at the bottom of the support plate; the defective product discharge pipe is fixedly connected to and communicates with the defective product bend and is located at the top of the defective product bend.

After the material is formed, it undergoes visual inspection on the molding machine using machine vision technology. Based on the visual inspection results, the current position of the material is recorded. When the material reaches the discharge position, the driving component drives the cup-separating bend to rotate, connecting the cup-separating bend to either the defective product discharge channel or the good product discharge channel. Specifically, when the material at the material discharge position of the molding machine is defective, the driving component drives the cup-separating bend to rotate until it connects with the defective product discharge channel.

[0024] This utility model provides a waste discharge mechanism for materials, including a mounting plate 101 and a waste discharge assembly. The waste discharge assembly includes a sleeve 102, a drive component 103, a cup-dividing bend 104, a support shaft 105, a support plate 106, a defective product discharge channel 107, a good product discharge channel 108, multiple guide components 109, and a guide ring 110. The guide component 109 includes a mounting shaft 111 and a bearing 112. The drive component 103 includes a mounting platform 114, a drive motor 115, a transmission wheel 116, a synchronous wheel 117, and a transmission belt 118. The defective product discharge channel 107 includes a defective product bend 119 and a defective product discharge pipe 120. The good product discharge channel 108 includes a good product bend 121 and a good product discharge pipe 122. The aforementioned solution can quickly send materials that have completed appearance inspection into the defective product transmission pipeline and the good product transmission pipeline, improving the discharge efficiency of defective materials.
[0025] In this specific embodiment, the sleeve 102 is fixedly connected to the mounting plate 101 and is located at the bottom of the mounting plate 101; the driving component 103 is disposed at the top of the mounting plate 101; the cup-dividing bend tube 104 is rotatably connected to the mounting plate 101 and communicates with the sleeve 102, and is located at the top of the mounting plate 101; the support shaft 105 is fixedly connected to the mounting plate 101 and is located at the top of the mounting plate 101; the support plate 106 is fixedly connected to the support shaft 105 and is located at the top of the support shaft 105; the defective product discharge channel 107 is disposed on the side of the support plate 106; and the good product discharge channel 108 is disposed on the side of the support plate 106. In use, the mounting plate 101 is installed next to the molding machine, positioning the sleeve 102 above the material discharge position of the molding machine. The upper end of the defective product discharge channel 107 is connected to the defective product transmission pipeline, and the upper end of the good product discharge channel 108 is connected to the good product transmission pipeline. After the material is formed, it undergoes visual inspection on the molding machine using machine vision technology. Based on the visual inspection results, the current position of the material is recorded. When the material reaches the discharge position, the driving component 103 drives the cup-dividing bend 104 to rotate, connecting the cup-dividing bend 104 to either the defective product discharge channel 107 or the good product discharge channel 108. Specifically, when the material at the material discharge position of the molding machine is defective, the driving component 103 drives the cup-dividing bend 104 to rotate until it connects to the defective product discharge channel 107. At this time, the defective product transmission pipeline is under vacuum. The adsorption process draws defective material into the sleeve 102. The material then passes through the sleeve 102, the cup-dividing bend 104, and the defective product discharge channel 107 into the defective product transmission pipeline, where it is transported to a designated location. When the material at the material discharge position of the molding machine is good, the driving component 103 drives the cup-dividing bend 104 to rotate and connect with the good product discharge channel 108. At this time, the good product transmission pipeline uses vacuum adsorption to draw good material into the sleeve 102. The material then passes through the sleeve 102, the cup-dividing bend 104, and the good product discharge channel 108 into the good product transmission pipeline, where it is transported to a designated location. Through this method, materials that have completed appearance inspection can be quickly sent into the defective product transmission pipeline and the good product transmission pipeline, improving the discharge efficiency of defective material and thus improving the waste material discharge efficiency. The materials referred to in this application are lightweight materials such as paper cups, paper bowls, and plastic cups. This application can quickly sort out defective and good products after visual inspection of materials such as paper cups, paper bowls, and plastic cups.
[0026] The mounting platform 114 is fixedly connected to the mounting plate 101 and is located on top of the mounting plate 101; the drive motor 115 is fixedly connected to the mounting platform 114 and is located on top of the mounting platform 114; the transmission wheel 116 is fixedly connected to the output end of the drive motor 115 and is located at the bottom of the drive motor 115; the synchronous wheel 117 is fixedly connected to the cup-dividing bend tube 104 and is located outside the cup-dividing bend tube 104; the transmission belt 118 is sleeved on the sides of the transmission wheel 116 and the synchronous wheel 117. The mounting platform 114 supports the drive motor 115, which drives the transmission wheel 116 to rotate. The transmission wheel 116 drives the synchronous wheel 117 to rotate via the transmission belt 118, and the synchronous wheel 117 drives the cup-dividing bend tube 104 to rotate.
[0027] Secondly, multiple guide components 109 are respectively located on the top of the mounting plate 101. Each guide component 109 includes a mounting shaft 111 and a bearing 112. The mounting shaft 111 is fixedly connected to the mounting plate 101 and is located on the top of the mounting plate 101. The inner ring of the bearing 112 is fixedly connected to the mounting shaft 111 and is located on the side of the mounting shaft 111. The outer ring of the bearing 112 is provided with an annular groove 113. The guide ring 110 is fixedly connected to the synchronous pulley 117 and is located at the bottom of the synchronous pulley 117. The outer edge of the guide ring 110 is located within the annular groove 113. The annular groove 113 on the multiple bearings 112 can provide guidance for the rotation of the guide ring 110, thereby providing guidance for the rotation of the cup-dividing bend tube 104. Since the bearing 112 can rotate about the mounting shaft 111, the arrangement of the bearing 112 and the guide ring 110 will not interfere with the rotation of the cup-dividing bend tube 104.
[0028] Meanwhile, the defective product bend 119 is fixedly connected to the support plate 106 and located at the bottom of the support plate 106; the defective product discharge pipe 120 is fixedly connected to and communicates with the defective product bend 119 and is located at the top of the defective product bend 119. The defective product bend 119 is used to connect with the cup-dividing bend 104, and the defective product discharge pipe 120 is used to connect with the defective product transmission pipe.
[0029] In addition, the good product bend 121 is fixedly connected to the support plate 106 and is located at the bottom of the support plate 106; the good product discharge pipe 122 is fixedly connected to and communicates with the good product bend 121 and is located at the top of the good product bend 121. The good product bend 121 is used to connect with the cup-dividing bend 104, and the good product discharge pipe 122 is used to connect with the good product transmission pipe.
[0030] Finally, the waste discharge mechanism for materials also includes a photoelectric sensor 123, which is disposed on the side of the good product discharge pipe 122. The photoelectric sensor 123 can be used to detect the position of the material on the molding machine.
[0031] When using this utility model, the mounting plate 101 is installed next to the molding machine, so that the sleeve 102 is above the material discharge position of the molding machine. The upper end of the defective product discharge pipe 120 is connected to the defective product transmission pipe, and the upper end of the good product discharge pipe 122 is connected to the good product transmission pipe. After the material is formed, it is visually inspected on the molding machine using machine vision inspection technology. Based on the visual inspection results, the current position of the material is recorded. When the material reaches the discharge position, the drive motor 115 drives the transmission wheel 116 to rotate. The transmission wheel 116 drives the synchronous wheel 117 to rotate via the transmission belt 118. The synchronous wheel 117 drives the cup-separating bend 104 to rotate, so that the cup-separating bend 104 is connected to the defective product bend 119 or the good product bend 121. Specifically, when the material at the material discharge position of the molding machine is a defective product, the drive motor 115 drives the cup-separating bend 104 to rotate until it is connected to the defective product bend 119. When the defective product transfer pipe is connected, it uses vacuum adsorption to suck the defective material into the sleeve 102. The material will pass through the sleeve 102, the cup-dividing bend 104, the defective product bend 119, and the defective product discharge pipe 120 into the defective product transfer pipe and be transported to a designated location. When the material at the material discharge position of the molding machine is a good product, the drive motor 115 drives the cup-dividing bend 104 to rotate and connect with the good product bend 121. At this time, the good product transfer pipe uses vacuum adsorption to suck the good product material into the sleeve 102. The material will pass through the sleeve 102, the cup-dividing bend 104, the good product bend 121, and the good product discharge pipe 122 into the good product transfer pipe and be transported to a designated location. In the above way, the material after appearance inspection can be quickly sent into the defective product transfer pipe and the good product transfer pipe, improving the discharge efficiency of defective material, thereby improving the waste material discharge efficiency. It is worth noting that the molding machine, the machine vision inspection technology used for material appearance inspection, and the control program that controls the drive motor 115 to move according to the inspection results are all mature existing technologies and are not within the scope of protection of this application. Their control principles will not be elaborated here. The materials in this application refer to lightweight materials such as paper cups, paper bowls, and plastic cups. This application can quickly discharge defective and good products after the appearance inspection of materials such as paper cups, paper bowls, and plastic cups.
[0032] The above-disclosed embodiments are merely one or more preferred embodiments of this application and should not be construed as limiting the scope of this application. Those skilled in the art can understand that all or part of the processes for implementing the above embodiments and equivalent changes made in accordance with the claims of this application still fall within the scope of this application.
