[0025] like Figures 1 to 6As shown, this utility model discloses a filling mechanism for gel production, comprising a conveying device 1, a fixed frame 2, a material barrel 3, a piston plate 4, a screw 5, a limiting plate 6, a threaded tube 7, a worm gear 8, two sets of vertical plates 9, a worm wheel 10, a motor 11, a first control valve 13, a second control valve 15, a filling head 16, a height adjustment device, and a receiving device. The fixed frame 2 is located on the upper rear side of the conveying device 1. The material barrel 3 is installed at the top of the fixed frame 2. The piston plate 4 is slidably connected to the inside of the material barrel 3. A vent hole is provided at the top of the material barrel 3. The threaded tube 7 is rotatably installed at the middle of the top of the material barrel 3. The screw 5 is threadedly connected to the threaded tube 7. The bottom end of the screw 5 is connected to the top of the piston plate 4. The limiting plate 6 is installed on the screw... At the top of rod 5, worm 8 is installed on the upper part of threaded pipe 7. Two sets of vertical plates 9 are symmetrically installed at the top of material barrel 3. Worm wheel 10 is rotatably installed at the inner end of the two sets of vertical plates 9. Worm wheel 10 meshes with worm 8. Motor 11 is installed at the front end of front vertical plate 9. The output end of motor 11 passes through front vertical plate 9 and is connected to the front end of worm wheel 10. Feed pipe 12 is connected to the lower right side of material barrel 3. First control valve 13 is installed on feed pipe 12. Discharge pipe 14 is connected to the bottom of material barrel 3. Discharge pipe 14 passes through the top of fixed frame 2. Second control valve 15 is installed on discharge pipe 14. The output end of discharge pipe 14 is connected to filling head 16 through height adjustment device. Receiving device is installed on height adjustment device.
[0026] The bottles are conveyed by the conveying device 1. After the bottles are conveyed to the underside of the filling head 16, the conveying device 1 is turned off. Then, the height adjustment device is used to raise and lower the filling head 16 until it is close to the bottles. Then, the motor 11 is turned on. The motor 11 meshes with the worm gear 8 through the worm wheel 10. The worm gear 8 drives the threaded tube 7 to be threadedly connected to the screw 5. The screw 5 drives the piston plate 4 to move downward a specified distance in the material tank 3. The gel in the material tank 3 is then quantitatively filled into the bottles through the discharge pipe 14 by the filling head 16. After that, the height adjustment device is turned on to reset the filling head 16. The receiving device moves to the bottom of the filling head 16 to collect the gel dripping from the filling head 16. By setting up this device, the movement distance of the piston plate 4 can be controlled by the threaded connection between the screw 5 and the threaded tube 7. The filling accuracy of the gel can be precisely controlled, and the gel dripping from the filling head 16 can be easily collected to avoid gel waste.
[0027] As a preferred embodiment of the above, the height adjustment device includes a first electric push rod 17, a drive plate 18, and a telescopic tube 19. The first electric push rod 17 is installed at the top of the fixed frame 2. The input end of the telescopic tube 19 is connected to the output end of the discharge pipe 14. The output end of the telescopic tube 19 is connected to the input end of the filling head 16. The drive plate 18 is installed at the lower part of the telescopic tube 19. The output end of the first electric push rod 17 is connected to the top of the drive plate 18. The receiving device is installed on the rear side of the bottom end of the drive plate 18.
[0028] By setting up a first electric push rod 17, a driving plate 18, and a telescopic tube 19, opening the first electric push rod 17 causes the telescopic tube 19 to extend and retract via the driving plate 18, thereby adjusting the height of the filling head 16. This facilitates the adjustment of the height of the filling head 16 and makes it suitable for filling bottles of different heights.
[0029] As a preferred embodiment of the above, the receiving device includes a support plate 20, a second electric push rod 21, a connecting frame 22, and a receiving box 23. The support plate 20 is installed on the rear side of the bottom end of the driving plate 18, the second electric push rod 21 is installed on the front end of the support plate 20, the connecting frame 22 is installed on the output end of the second electric push rod 21, the top end of the connecting frame 22 is slidably connected to the bottom end of the driving plate 18, and the receiving box 23 is installed on the front end of the connecting frame 22. The receiving box 23 corresponds to the position of the filling head 16.
[0030] By setting up a support plate 20, a second electric push rod 21, a connecting frame 22, and a receiving box 23, after the filling of the bottle is completed, the second electric push rod 21 is opened, and the second electric push rod 21 drives the receiving box 23 to move forward through the connecting frame 22. When the receiving box 23 is below the filling head 16, the second electric push rod 21 is closed, and the gel dripping from the filling head 16 is collected through the receiving box 23, which facilitates the collection of the gel dripping from the filling head 16.
[0031] As a preferred embodiment of the above embodiment, a first contact switch 24 is also included. The first contact switch 24 is installed at the bottom of the inner end of the material bucket 3 and is electrically connected to the motor 11.
[0032] By setting the first contact switch 24, when the bottom end of the piston plate 4 contacts the first contact switch 24, it indicates that there is no gel in the material barrel 3. The first contact switch 24 then controls the motor 11 to shut down, which facilitates the control of the piston plate 4.
[0033] As a preferred embodiment of the above, it also includes an alarm 25, which is mounted on the top of the mounting bracket 2 and is electrically connected to the first contact switch 24.
[0034] By setting the alarm 25, when the first contact switch 24 is released from the piston plate 4, the first contact switch 24 will control the alarm 25 to sound, so as to remind the staff to replenish the gel.
[0035] As a preferred embodiment of the above embodiment, it also includes a fixing plate 26 and a second contact switch 27. The fixing plate 26 is installed on the left side of the bottom end of the driving plate 18, and the second contact switch 27 is installed on the rear end of the fixing plate 26. The second contact switch 27 corresponds to the position of the connecting frame 22 and is electrically connected to the second electric push rod 21.
[0036] By setting a fixing plate 26 and a second contact switch 27, when the connecting frame 22 contacts the second contact switch 27, the second contact switch 27 controls the second electric push rod 21 to close. At this time, the receiving box 23 is located below the filling head 16, which plays the role of automatically positioning the receiving box 23.
[0037] As a preferred embodiment of the above, both the first control valve 13 and the second control valve 15 are configured as one-way valves.
[0038] This can prevent the second control valve 15 from opening when the gel is added to the material tank 3 through the feed pipe 12, and it can also prevent the gel in the material tank 3 from being discharged through the discharge pipe 14 and discharged through the feed pipe 12.
[0039] As a preferred embodiment of the above, the motor 11 is configured as a servo motor;
[0040] The servo motor has high precision and its rotation speed can be adjusted according to needs, thereby enabling precise control of the gel filling dosage.
[0041] This utility model discloses a filling mechanism for gel production. During operation, the bottles are first conveyed via a conveying device 1. Once the bottles reach the underside of the filling head 16, the conveying device 1 is closed. Then, the first electric push rod 17 is opened. The first electric push rod 17, via a driving plate 18, drives the telescopic tube 19 to extend and retract, thereby raising and lowering the filling head 16 until it is close to the bottle. Afterwards, the motor 11 is activated. The motor 11 meshes with a worm gear 8 via a worm wheel 10. The worm gear 8 drives a threaded tube 7 to threadedly connect with a screw 5. The piston plate 4 is driven to move downward a specified distance within the material tank 3. The gel in the material tank 3 is then quantitatively filled into the filling bottle through the filling head 16 via the discharge pipe 14. After filling is completed, the first electric push rod 17 is opened to reset the filling head 16, and the second electric push rod 21 is opened at the same time. The second electric push rod 21 then drives the receiving box 23 to move forward through the connecting frame 22. When the receiving box 23 is located below the filling head 16, the second electric push rod 21 is closed, and the gel dripping from the filling head 16 is collected through the receiving box 23.
[0042] The gel production filling mechanism of this utility model has common mechanical installation, connection or setting methods, and can be implemented as long as it can achieve its beneficial effect. The motor 11, first electric push rod 17, second electric push rod 21, first contact switch 24, alarm 25 and second contact switch 27 of the gel production filling mechanism of this utility model are purchased from the market. Technical personnel in this industry only need to install and operate it according to the accompanying instruction manual.
[0043] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model. It should be noted that for those skilled in the art, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the technical principles of the present utility model, and these improvements and modifications should also be considered within the protection scope of the present utility model.
