Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to equipment related to plastic product processing, and in particular to a turning and transferring machine for plastic products. Background Technology

[0002] In the processing of plastic products (such as plastic cups), after molding, they are arranged into strips of plastic cups (containing multiple nested cups). For example, in the CN217944410U plastic product molding equipment production line, after the plastic cups produced by the production line are output, additional edge rolling is required to remove burrs from the cup rims. This is usually done using an edge rolling machine in conjunction with the edge rolling. However, the production line needs to be connected and transported by a conveyor turning machine, which results in an excessively long production line, occupying a large area, and having a relatively simple method with a relatively large turning radius. If the turning radius is too small, the entire plastic cup strip will not be able to turn around smoothly. Moreover, during the conveyor turning process, the entire plastic cup strip is prone to loosening, which is not conducive to subsequent processing. Utility Model Content

[0003] In view of the technical problems existing in the background art, the present invention aims to provide a plastic product turning and transfer machine with relatively small footprint and relatively high operating efficiency.

[0004] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: a plastic product turning and transfer machine, including a transfer frame, characterized in that: the transfer frame is provided with a rotating support that rotates 180 degrees intermittently, the rotation axis of the rotating support is vertically arranged, the rotating support is provided with a double row of cup slots, the double row of cup slots includes cup slot units arranged side by side, the plastic product turning and transfer machine is also equipped with a cup receiving station and a cup dispensing station arranged side by side, the cup slot units arranged side by side are alternately arranged between the cup receiving station and the cup dispensing station during the 180-degree intermittent rotation of the rotating support, a cup slot cup dispensing conveying device is provided at the cup dispensing station, the cup slot cup dispensing conveying device is correspondingly arranged with the cup slot unit positioned at the cup dispensing station.

[0005] The following optimizations or supplementary explanations can be made to the above technical solutions.

[0006] The transfer frame is also equipped with a rotary drive device, which is connected to the rotary support for transmission.

[0007] For example, the cup tray dispensing conveyor is installed on the transfer frame. The cup tray dispensing conveyor includes a cup dispensing pusher head and a cup dispensing push drive component. The cup dispensing pusher head and the cup dispensing push drive component are connected in a transmission connection.

[0008] Further optimization involves a linear track on the transfer frame, a translation seat on the linear track, and a transmission connection between the translation seat and the cup ejection push drive component. The cup slot unit positioned at the cup ejection station is set parallel to the linear track, and the cup ejection push head is connected to the translation seat.

[0009] In addition, the cup-dispensing pusher head is also equipped with a lifting mechanism; for example, the translation seat is equipped with a lifting drive component, which is connected to the cup-dispensing pusher head for transmission.

[0010] The cup-dispensing pusher is positioned above the double-row cup slots, and the cup slot unit includes a cup-supporting component with the groove opening facing upwards.

[0011] The cup receiving station and the cup dispensing station are arranged side by side on the transfer frame, and the rotation axis of the rotating bracket is located between the cup receiving station and the cup dispensing station.

[0012] The cup slot units arranged side by side in the double-row cup slots are symmetrical about the rotation axis of the rotating bracket.

[0013] The beneficial effects of this utility model are that the plastic product turning and transfer machine has a relatively compact structure and occupies relatively less production space compared to the conveyor turning machine. It can be used to turn the input plastic cups around and output them. The double-row cup slots alternately stop at the cup receiving station and the cup output station, making the operation more efficient. It can be used in the plastic cup production line for transfer, such as transferring between the cup sorting machine and the edge rolling machine. Attached Figure Description

[0024] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the implementation of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present utility model without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0025] Referring to the accompanying drawings, the plastic product turning and transfer machine in this embodiment includes a transfer frame 1. The transfer frame 1 is provided with a rotating support 2 that rotates 180 degrees intermittently. The rotation axis 21 of the rotating support 2 is vertically arranged. The rotating support 2 rotates 180 degrees intermittently around its rotation axis 21 (it can rotate back and forth or rotate in one direction). The rotating support 2 is provided with a double row of cup slots 3. The double row of cup slots 3 includes cup slot units 30 arranged side by side. The cup slot units 30 arranged side by side in the double row of cup slots 3 rotate 180 degrees intermittently together with the rotating support 2. The cup slot units 30 are used to support the plastic products (whole plastic cups 0) so as to receive the whole plastic cups output from the previous process (such as a cup sorting machine) and to support the whole plastic cups for easy output of the whole plastic cups.

[0026] The plastic product turning and transfer machine is also equipped with a cup receiving station 11 and a cup dispensing station 12 arranged side by side. The cup receiving station 11 is used to receive the entire plastic cup 0 (i.e., the entire plastic cup is input into the turning and transfer machine), and the cup dispensing station 12 is used to output the entire plastic cup (i.e., the entire plastic cup is output from the turning and transfer machine).

[0027] The cup slot units 30 arranged side by side are alternately positioned between the cup receiving station 11 and the cup dispensing station 12 during the 180-degree intermittent rotation of the rotating bracket 2. That is, when the double-row cup slots 3 rotate together with the rotating bracket 2, one of the cup slot units 30 arranged side by side stays at the cup receiving station 11 and the other stays at the cup dispensing station 12. During the rotation, the two cup slot units 30 arranged side by side alternately stay at the cup receiving station 11 and the cup dispensing station 12.

[0028] The cup dispensing station 12 is equipped with a cup tray dispensing conveyor 4, which is corresponding to the cup tray unit 30 positioned at the cup dispensing station 12. The cup tray dispensing conveyor 4 is used to transport the entire plastic cup that is resting on the cup tray unit 30 at the cup dispensing station 12 out, so that the entire plastic cup can be output at the cup dispensing station 12 (i.e., the entire plastic cup can be output from the turning transfer machine).

[0029] The working principle is as follows: The entire plastic cup is fed into one cup unit 30 of the double-row cup slots 3 of the rotating bracket 2 at the cup receiving station 11. After the rotating bracket 2 rotates 180 degrees intermittently, the entire plastic cup in the cup slot unit 30 turns around (i.e., the cup opening is turned 180 degrees). After the rotation, the other cup slot unit 30 in the double-row cup slots 3 returns to the cup receiving station 11 to feed in a new entire plastic cup 0. When the cup slot unit 30, carrying the entire plastic cup 0, rotates and stops at the corresponding cup dispensing station 12, the cup dispensing conveyor 4 cooperates to output the entire plastic cup 0, outputting the turned-around entire plastic cup 0, and freeing up space on the cup slot unit 30 so that it can rotate back to the cup receiving station 11 to feed in a new entire plastic cup 0 again.

[0030] This plastic product turning and transfer machine has a relatively compact structure and occupies relatively little production space. It can be used to turn the input plastic cup 0 into an output one. The double-row cup slots 3 alternately stop at the cup receiving station 11 and the cup output station 12, making the operation more efficient. It can be used in the plastic cup production line for transfer, such as between the cup sorting machine and the edge rolling machine.

[0031] Based on the above embodiments, the following optimizations or further explanations can be made.

[0032] For example, the transfer frame 1 is also equipped with a rotary drive device 5, which is connected to the rotary support 2. The rotary drive device 5 drives the rotary support 2 to rotate 180 degrees intermittently on the transfer frame 1. The rotary drive device 5 can be of various types; it can use a motor (such as a servo motor) or a cylinder as a power source, or it can use an intermittent rotary indexing box for transmission. The rotary support 2 can be connected to the rotary shaft 20, which is connected to the rotary drive device 5.

[0033] It can be further optimized. The cup tray dispensing conveyor 4 is installed on the transfer frame 1. The cup tray dispensing conveyor 4 includes a cup dispensing pusher head 41 and a cup dispensing pusher drive component 42. The cup dispensing pusher head 41 is connected to the cup dispensing pusher drive component 42. The cup dispensing pusher drive component 42 can use a motor (such as a linear module) or a cylinder as a power source. The cup dispensing pusher drive component 42 drives the cup dispensing pusher head 41 to cooperate in pushing the entire plastic cup 0 in the cup tray unit 30 for output. During the forward movement of the cup dispensing pusher head 41 (such as a pusher block), it will push the output. When the cup dispensing pusher head 41 retracts, it returns to its position and waits for the next operation.

[0034] For example, the transfer frame 1 is equipped with a linear track 43, on which a translation seat 44 is mounted. The translation seat 44 can reciprocate stably along the linear track 43 (forward and backward). The translation seat 44 is connected to the cup-dispensing push drive component 42, which drives the translation seat 44 to reciprocate. The cup-dispensing push head 41 can be installed and connected to the translation seat 44. The cup-dispensing push head 41 runs stably on the linear track 43 and can be connected and installed with a connecting rod 46, etc. The height of the cup-dispensing push head 41 on the connecting rod 46 can also be adjusted to adapt to different sizes of plastic cups. The cup slot unit 30 positioned at the cup-dispensing station 12 is arranged parallel to the linear track 43 so that the entire plastic cup in the cup slot unit 30 positioned at the cup-dispensing station 12 can be smoothly pushed by the cup-dispensing push head 41 (moving along the linear track 43).

[0035] The cup-dispensing pusher head 41 is also equipped with a lifting mechanism, which is more efficient. After the cup-dispensing pusher head 41 rises, it can directly retract without affecting (interfering with) the intermittent rotation of the double-row cup slots 3 below with the rotating bracket 2. When the cup-dispensing pusher head 41 descends, it is in the pushing position state. The translation base 44 is equipped with a lifting drive component 45 (such as a cylinder or motor), which is connected to the cup-dispensing pusher head 41. The lifting drive component 45 drives the cup-dispensing pusher head 41 to rise and fall on the translation base 44.

[0036] The cup ejector head 41 is positioned above the double-row cup slots 3. The cup slot unit 30 includes a cup-supporting component 32 with its groove 31 facing upwards. The cup slot unit 30 is relatively convenient for receiving materials, allowing the entire plastic cup to fall smoothly and easily into the cup slot unit 30 (groove 31) from above. The cup-supporting component 32 can be a long, V-shaped plate (with a corresponding V-shaped groove 31 to accommodate plastic cups of different diameters) and can be made of metal plate (such as stainless steel plate, iron plate, etc.) for easy bending and integral forming. The front end of the groove 31 is the output end, and a baffle can be set at the rear end.

[0037] The cup receiving station 11 and the cup dispensing station 12 are arranged side by side on the transfer frame 1, with the rotation axis 21 of the rotating bracket 2 located between the cup receiving station 11 and the cup dispensing station 12. The cup slot units 30 arranged side by side in the double-row cup slots 3 are symmetrically positioned with the rotation axis 21 of the rotating bracket 2 as their center, ensuring smooth intermittent rotation and replacement. The cup receiving station 11 is connected to the output end of the cup sorting machine in the plastic product molding equipment production line, and the cup dispensing station 12 is connected to the input end of the edge-rolling machine.
