Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of dairy production equipment, specifically a detection device to prevent the contents of the equipment from being inside out. Background Technology
[0002] In dairy production, tin cans, as common packaging containers, bear the important responsibility of protecting products and extending their shelf life. Proper installation of the tin can lid is a crucial step in ensuring product sealing. In practice, a lid-unloading conveyor belt enables efficient and stable transport of dairy tin can lids, thereby ensuring the continuous operation of the production line.
[0003] However, during transportation, due to mechanical failures, operational errors, and other reasons, can lids occasionally end up inside out. This phenomenon, where the inside and outside of the lid are reversed, prevents the can from forming an effective seal, potentially leading to a series of serious consequences. For dairy products, the loss of seal means the product is at risk of microbial contamination, resulting in spoilage and spoilage, causing economic losses to the company. Furthermore, the problem of lids being upside down can also damage production equipment, affecting the normal operation of the production line and increasing maintenance costs. Utility Model Content
[0004] Therefore, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a detection device that prevents the device from being entered with the cover inside out, so as to solve the technical problems mentioned in the background art.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a detection device to prevent reverse-capping from entering the equipment, comprising an anti-reverse-capping baffle, a pressure sensor installed inside one end of the anti-reverse-capping baffle, and the anti-reverse-capping baffle mounted on the top of a support base via a base, an alarm installed on the top of the base, the support base being movably connected above a fixed base, the fixed base being positioned on one side of the cap removal conveyor belt, and an adjustment mechanism penetrating the fixed base being provided at the bottom of the support base, the adjustment mechanism comprising a threaded cylinder, a threaded column, and a handle, the threaded column being rotatably connected inside the fixed base via a bearing.
[0006] Preferably, the anti-reverse cover strip consists of a rotating plate, a fixed plate, and a damping shaft, and both the rotating plate and the fixed plate are inclined.
[0007] Preferably, the threaded cylinder is welded to the bottom end of the support base, and the threaded column is threadedly connected to the threaded cylinder.
[0008] Preferably, the end of the threaded post furthest from the threaded cylinder is connected to a handle.
[0009] Preferably, a limit rod is welded to the bottom end of the support base, and a limit hole is formed inside the fixed base.
[0010] Preferably, the support base and the fixed base form a sliding structure through a limiting hole and a limiting rod, and the limiting hole and the limiting rod are symmetrically arranged about the central axis of the support base.
[0011] Preferably, the top of the support base is symmetrically provided with bolts that penetrate the base, and the outer surface of the bolts is threaded with nuts at the top of the base.
[0012] Preferably, the bottom end of the fixed base is provided with a locking mechanism sleeved on the outer surface of the threaded column. The locking mechanism consists of a gear, a toothed plate, a lifting plate, a vertical plate, and a return spring.
[0013] Preferably, the gear is welded to the outer surface of the threaded column, and a toothed plate is meshed with one side of the gear.
[0014] Preferably, the upright plate is welded to the bottom end of the fixed base, and a lifting plate that is welded to the toothed plate is slidably connected inside the upright plate. A return spring is connected between the lifting plate and the upright plate.
[0015] In summary, the present invention has the following main advantages:
[0016] 1. This utility model is equipped with an anti-reverse cap baffle, a pressure sensor, an alarm, and an adjustment mechanism. The anti-reverse cap baffle is installed on one side of the cap unloading conveyor belt, and the pressure sensor is installed on the end of the anti-reverse cap baffle near the cap. When a cap is reversed, the anti-reverse cap baffle will block the reverse cap. At the same time, the reverse cap squeezes the pressure sensor. When the pressure reaches a specified value, the conveying of the reverse cap will stop. At the same time, the alarm signal will be issued to remind the operator to deal with it in time. This can accurately prevent reverse caps from flowing into the filling machine, avoiding product scrap and equipment damage. Since the threaded column and the threaded cylinder are threadedly connected, and the support base and the fixed base are slidably connected through the limiting rod and the limiting hole, the threaded cylinder and the support base can be moved vertically by rotating the handle and the threaded column. This allows for adjustment of the position of the anti-reverse cap baffle, making it suitable for the detection of caps of various sizes and expanding the scope of application.
[0017] 2. This utility model is equipped with a locking mechanism. Since the lifting plate and the upright plate are elastically connected by a return spring, after the lifting plate is released, the lifting plate and the toothed plate will move horizontally and return to their original positions under the action of the return spring. At the same time, the toothed plate will engage with the gear, which can facilitate locking of the threaded column and prevent the threaded column from rotating, thereby improving the stability of the detection device during use.

The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain the present invention, and should not be construed as limiting the present invention.
[0025] The embodiments of this utility model will be described below based on its overall structure.
[0026] A detection device to prevent the device from being entered with the cover inside out, such as Figures 1-4 As shown, it includes an anti-reverse cover baffle 1, a pressure sensor 6 is installed inside one end of the anti-reverse cover baffle 1, and the anti-reverse cover baffle 1 is installed on the top of the support seat 3 via the base 2. An alarm 7 is installed on the top of the base 2. The support seat 3 is movably connected above the fixed seat 4. The fixed seat 4 is set on one side of the unloading conveyor belt 9. The anti-reverse cover baffle 1 is composed of a rotating plate, a fixed plate and a damping shaft, and both the rotating plate and the fixed plate are inclined.
[0027] See Figures 1-3 It is known that the anti-reverse cap baffle 1 is installed on one side of the cap unloading conveyor belt 9, and the pressure sensor 6 is installed on the end of the anti-reverse cap baffle 1 near the cap. When there is a reverse cap, the anti-reverse cap baffle 1 will block the reverse cap. At the same time, the reverse cap squeezes the pressure sensor 6. When the specified value is reached, the conveying of the reverse cap can be stopped. At the same time, the alarm signal can be issued through the alarm 7 to remind the operator to deal with it in time. This can accurately prevent the reverse cap from flowing into the filling machine and avoid product scrap and equipment damage.
[0028] See Figures 1-3 It can be seen that the top of the support base 3 is symmetrically provided with bolts 8 that penetrate the base 2. The outer surface of the bolts 8 is threaded with nuts 12 at the top of the base 2, which can facilitate the firm installation of the base 2 on the support base 3, and at the same time, it can be easily disassembled and replaced according to the usage requirements, making it more convenient to use.
[0029] See Figures 1-5 It can be seen that the bottom end of the support base 3 is provided with an adjustment mechanism 5 that penetrates the fixed base 4. The adjustment mechanism 5 includes a threaded cylinder 501, a threaded column 502 and a handle 503. The threaded column 502 is rotatably connected to the inside of the fixed base 4 through a bearing. The threaded cylinder 501 is welded to the bottom end of the support base 3. The threaded column 502 is threadedly connected to the threaded cylinder 501. The end of the threaded column 502 away from the threaded cylinder 501 is connected to the handle 503.
[0030] See Figures 1-5 As can be seen, since the threaded column 502 is threadedly connected to the threaded cylinder 501, and the support base 3 and the fixed base 4 are slidably connected through the limiting rod 11 and the limiting hole 10, the threaded cylinder 501 and the support base 3 can be moved vertically by rotating the handle 503 and the threaded column 502, thereby realizing the adjustment of the position of the anti-reverse cover strip 1, so as to be suitable for the detection operation of covers of various sizes and expand the scope of application.
[0031] See Figures 2-4 It is known that the bottom end of the support base 3 is welded with a limiting rod 11, and the inside of the fixed base 4 is provided with a limiting hole 10. The support base 3 and the fixed base 4 form a sliding structure through the limiting hole 10 and the limiting rod 11. The limiting hole 10 and the limiting rod 11 are symmetrically arranged about the central axis of the support base 3, which can play the role of supporting and limiting the support base 3, thereby increasing the stability of the support base 3 during the lifting process and preventing displacement.
[0032] See Figures 3-5 It is known that the bottom end of the fixed base 4 is provided with a locking mechanism 13 sleeved on the outer surface of the threaded column 502. The locking mechanism 13 is composed of a gear 1301, a toothed plate 1302, a lifting plate 1303, a vertical plate 1304 and a return spring 1305. The gear 1301 is welded to the outer surface of the threaded column 502. The toothed plate 1302 is meshed with one side of the gear 1301. The vertical plate 1304 is welded to the bottom end of the fixed base 4. The lifting plate 1303, which is welded to the toothed plate 1302, is slidably connected inside the vertical plate 1304. A return spring 1305 is connected between the lifting plate 1303 and the vertical plate 1304.
[0033] See Figure 4 and Figure 5 As can be seen, since the lifting plate 1303 and the upright plate 1304 are elastically connected by the return spring 1305, after the lifting plate 1303 is released, the lifting plate 1303 and the toothed plate 1302 will move horizontally and reset under the action of the return spring 1305, and at the same time, the toothed plate 1302 will engage with the gear 1301, which can facilitate the locking of the threaded column 502, prevent the threaded column 502 from rotating, and thus improve the stability of the detection device during use.
[0034] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: When using the detection device to prevent reverse caps from entering the equipment, the anti-reverse cap baffle 1 is installed on one side of the cap unloading conveyor belt 9, and the pressure sensor 6 is installed on the end of the anti-reverse cap baffle 1 near the cap. When there is a reverse cap, the anti-reverse cap baffle 1 will block the reverse cap, and at the same time, the reverse cap will squeeze the pressure sensor 6. When the specified pressure value is reached, the conveying of the reverse cap will stop. At the same time, an alarm signal can be issued through the alarm 7 to remind the operator to deal with it in time, so as to accurately prevent reverse caps from flowing into the filling machine, avoiding product scrap and equipment damage. When it is necessary to detect caps of other sizes, the toothed plate 1302 and the gear 1301 can be separated by pulling the lifting plate 1303 to one side. At this time, the threaded cylinder 501 and the support seat 3 can be moved vertically by rotating the handle 503 and the threaded column 502, so as to realize the adjustment of the position of the anti-reverse cap baffle 1 to be suitable for the detection operation of caps of various sizes.
