[0002] In modern industrial production, filling equipment is widely used in many fields such as food, beverage, and chemical industries. As an important carrier of filled products, the efficient and stable transfer of packaging barrels in filling equipment is crucial to ensuring production efficiency and product quality.

[0003] Traditional methods of conveying packaging drums mostly rely on manual handling or simple mechanical conveying devices. Manual handling is not only labor-intensive and inefficient, but also prone to human error leading to drums tipping over and being damaged, thus affecting the continuity of the filling process and increasing production costs. Simple mechanical conveying devices often suffer from problems such as uneven arrangement and difficulty in controlling the spacing of the drums during transport. When the spacing between drums is too large, it reduces the efficiency of the filling equipment; when the spacing is too small, it may cause the drums to collide and squeeze each other, resulting in damage to the appearance of the drums or even leakage of their contents.

[0023] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figure 1-3 The specific embodiments of this utility model will be described in further detail.

[0024] Example 1, by Figure 1-3 This utility model provides a packaging barrel conveying device for filling equipment, comprising:

[0025] Frame 1 has protective side plates on both sides;

[0026] The conveyor chain plate 3 is rotatably mounted in the middle of the frame 1;

[0027] The drive assembly includes a drive motor 5 mounted on the frame 1 and a reducer 6 connected to the drive motor 5.

[0028] The interval control mechanism includes a cylinder 4 disposed at the end of the frame 1, and a photoelectric switch 41 electrically connected to the cylinder 4;

[0029] The pushing mechanism 7 includes a concave frame 8, a pushing plate 9 slidably disposed within the concave frame 8, a pushing block 10 symmetrically disposed on one side of the pushing plate 9, and a hydraulic cylinder 11 connected to the pushing plate 9;

[0030] The photoelectric switch 41 is configured to trigger the cylinder 4 to extend and block subsequent packaging barrels when the passing of the packaging barrel is detected. The blocking distance is the interval distance of the push blocks 10. The push blocks 10 are symmetrically arranged on the side of the push plate 9 facing the conveyor chain plate 3.

[0031] Frame 1: This is the main support structure of the device, with adjustable height protective side panels on both sides. The protective side panels cover 2 / 3 to 3 / 4 of the length of frame 1 along the conveying direction. The height adjustment function can accommodate packaging barrels of different sizes, effectively preventing the packaging barrels from tipping over or falling during the conveying process, and ensuring the safe operation of the equipment.

[0032] Conveyor chain plate 3: Rotatably mounted in the middle of frame 1, it is the main load-bearing and conveying component for the packaging drums. Through its continuous rotation, it ensures the smooth conveying of the packaging drums on the frame, providing basic conveying support for subsequent filling and other processes.

[0033] The drive assembly includes a drive motor 5 mounted on the frame 1 and a reducer 6 connected to the drive motor 5. The reducer 6 is a worm gear reducer, and its input end is connected to the output shaft of the drive motor 5 via a coupling. The drive motor 5 provides power, which is reduced and increased in torque by the worm gear reducer 6 to provide a stable and suitable rotational speed for the conveyor chain 3, ensuring that the packaging barrels are conveyed at a uniform speed according to the set speed.

[0034] The interval control mechanism includes a cylinder 4 located at the end of the frame 1 and a photoelectric switch 41 electrically connected to the cylinder 4. The photoelectric switch 41 monitors the passage of the packaging barrels in real time. When a packaging barrel is detected passing by, it triggers the cylinder 4 to extend and block subsequent packaging barrels. The blocking distance is precisely set to the interval distance of the push blocks 10, thereby achieving the equal spacing of the packaging barrels during the conveying process and providing conditions for the accurate pushing of the push mechanism.

[0035] The pushing mechanism 7 consists of a concave frame 8, a pushing plate 9 slidably disposed within the concave frame 8, pushing blocks 10 symmetrically disposed on one side of the pushing plate 9, and a hydraulic cylinder 11 connected to the pushing plate 9. The pushing blocks 10 are symmetrically disposed on the side of the pushing plate 9 facing the conveyor chain plate 3, and their working surfaces have concave surfaces adapted to the outer contour of the packaging barrels. The pushing blocks 10 are slightly larger than the width of the packaging barrels. Driven by the hydraulic cylinder 11, the pushing plate 9 drives the pushing blocks 10 to slide along the concave frame 8, accurately pushing the arranged packaging barrels to the designated position, completing the transfer of the packaging barrels. Furthermore, a guide plate is installed on the opposite side of the concave frame 8 on the conveyor chain plate 3. A rotatable roller assembly is embedded in the guide plate, providing guidance and auxiliary support for the pushing process of the packaging barrels, reducing pushing resistance, and ensuring smooth pushing action.

[0036] Working Principle: When this invention is in use, after the packaging barrel is placed on the conveyor chain plate 3, the drive motor 5 starts, and the power from its output shaft is transmitted to the worm gear reducer 6 through a coupling. The reducer 6 reduces and increases the torque of the power, transmitting the appropriate speed and torque to the conveyor chain plate 3, driving it to start rotating continuously. Driven by the conveyor chain plate 3, the packaging barrel moves smoothly along the conveying direction of the frame 1. This process is the initial conveying stage of the packaging barrel, laying the foundation for subsequent precise control.

[0037] When the packaging drums move to the end of the frame 1 along the conveyor chain 3, the photoelectric switch 41 located there begins to function. The photoelectric switch 41 monitors the position of the packaging drums in real time by emitting and receiving light signals. Once a packaging drum is detected passing by, the photoelectric switch 41 immediately generates an electrical signal and transmits it to the electrically connected cylinder 4. Upon receiving the signal, the cylinder 4 quickly extends its piston rod to block the advance of subsequent packaging drums. At this time, the blocking distance of the cylinder 4 is precisely set to the interval distance of the pushing blocks 10. This design ensures that the packaging drums maintain an equal spacing during transport, providing accurate positional conditions for subsequent pushing actions and preventing the packaging drums from being too close or too far apart, thus affecting subsequent operations.

[0038] After the packaging barrels are arranged at equal intervals, the pushing mechanism 7 begins operation. The hydraulic cylinder 11, serving as the power source for the pushing mechanism, receives a start command, and its internal hydraulic oil drives the piston, which in turn moves the pushing plate 9 connected to the piston. The pushing plate 9 slides along a predetermined track within the concave frame 8. Since the pushing block 10 is symmetrically fixed on the side of the pushing plate 9 facing the conveyor chain 3, the sliding of the pushing plate 9 causes the pushing block 10 to move along with it. The working surface of the pushing block 10 is designed with a concave surface that matches the outer contour of the packaging barrel, and its width is slightly larger than the packaging barrel. This structure allows for a tight fit with the packaging barrel, providing stable thrust during the pushing process and ensuring that the packaging barrel does not shift or tip over. Simultaneously, the guide plate on the opposite side of the concave frame 8 and the roller assembly embedded within it provide guidance and auxiliary support when the packaging barrel is pushed. The rotation of the roller assembly reduces friction during the pushing process, making the pushing action smoother and ultimately accurately pushing the arranged packaging barrels to the designated position, completing one packaging barrel transfer process.

[0039] After the packaging barrel is successfully pushed, cylinder 4 retracts its piston rod, releasing the obstruction to subsequent packaging barrels. The next batch of packaging barrels then continues to be conveyed, interval controlled, and pushed according to the above process. This cycle repeats continuously, achieving continuous and efficient conveying of packaging barrels in the filling equipment.

[0040] Beneficial effects: The photoelectric switches and cylinders of the mechanism, as well as the hydraulic cylinders, push plates and push blocks of the pushing mechanism, work together to automatically complete the conveying, spacing and precise pushing of packaging barrels without much manual intervention, thereby improving production efficiency and ensuring the stable and orderly operation of the filling process.

[0041] Ensuring operational safety: The height-adjustable protective side panels on both sides of the frame cover most of the frame along the conveying direction, effectively preventing the packaging barrels from tipping over or falling during the conveying process, providing safety assurance for equipment operation, and reducing the risk of equipment damage and production accidents caused by unexpected situations involving the packaging barrels.

[0042] Precise control of packaging barrel spacing: When a photoelectric switch detects a packaging barrel passing by, it triggers a cylinder to extend, and the blocking distance is the interval between the pushing blocks. This enables the packaging barrels to be arranged at equal intervals during the conveying process, allowing the pushing mechanism to accurately push each packaging barrel, ensuring the accuracy and consistency of packaging barrel delivery, which is beneficial for the precise operation of subsequent filling and other processes.

[0043] Reduce pushing resistance: The guide plate and embedded rotatable roller assembly installed on the opposite side of the concave frame of the conveyor chain plate provide guidance and auxiliary support for the packaging barrels during the pushing process, reducing friction during the pushing process, making the pushing action smoother, reducing equipment wear, extending the service life of the equipment, and also improving the stability of packaging barrel conveying.

[0044] To ensure stable pushing: The working surface of the pushing block has a concave surface that matches the outer contour of the packaging barrel, and the pushing block is slightly larger than the width of the packaging barrel. This design allows the pushing block to fit tightly against the packaging barrel, providing stable thrust during the pushing process, effectively preventing the packaging barrel from shifting or tipping over during the pushing process, and ensuring that the packaging barrel can be accurately pushed to the designated position.

[0045] Stable power transmission: The worm gear reducer is used as part of the drive assembly. It has the function of speed reduction and torque increase, which can provide a stable and appropriate rotation speed for the conveyor chain plate, so that the packaging barrels are conveyed at a set speed, ensuring the stability and reliability of the conveying process.

[0046] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model and is not intended to limit the utility model. Although the utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
