Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to an automatic tray sorting and filling machine, belonging to the field of tray sorting machine technology. Background Technology
[0002] Automatic tray loading and sorting machines are part of the "tray loading" stage in the downstream packaging production lines of industries such as food, pharmaceuticals, and daily chemicals. Their function is to load bulk materials or pre-formed individual products (such as mooncakes, bread dough, capsules, batteries, etc.) into separated trays (plastic trays, blister packs, or paper trays) according to rules, providing accurately positioned semi-finished products for subsequent bagging, boxing, or heat sealing.
[0003] Currently, an automatic tray separating machine disclosed in Chinese patent CN203332456U is widely used. It separates stacked trays one by one through a combination of vacuum suction cup, cam and shift fork, and then transports them to the tray loading station by belt or chain. However, the trays are prone to sticking during separation and cannot adapt to trays of various sizes. Utility Model Content
[0004] This invention overcomes the shortcomings of existing technology and provides an automatic tray sorting and filling machine that is easy to sort trays without sticking, and can meet the packaging needs of trays of various specifications.
[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows: an automatic tray-filling machine, including a machine body, a tray adjustment component, a belt X-direction component, a tray-arranging synchronous belt component, and a side-shifting component. The tray adjustment component is located at one end of the machine body, and the belt X-direction component is horizontally arranged below the tray adjustment component. The belt X-direction component is used to catch and transfer the trays falling from the tray adjustment component. The tray-arranging synchronous belt component is located at the other end of the machine body and is located above the belt X-direction component. The tray-arranging synchronous belt component is used to sequentially fill materials into the trays in the belt X-direction component. The side-shifting component is located at the discharge end of the belt X-direction component and is used to transfer the trays filled with materials.
[0006] The structure of the tray adjustment assembly includes a tray adjustment assembly body and a distributing spiral block. The tray adjustment assembly body includes multiple vertically arranged "∟"-shaped surrounding plates. Multiple trays without material are stacked inside the surrounding plates. The surrounding plates are provided with a diameter adjustment mechanism for adjusting the spacing between them, so that the surrounding plates form a stacking space for trays of different diameters, satisfying the need to fix trays of different diameter sizes. Each surrounding plate has a distributing spiral block at its lower end. The lowest tray inside the surrounding plate is matched and placed on the distributing spiral block. Each distributing spiral block is provided with a drive motor, and the multiple drive motors rotate synchronously. The distributing spiral block is provided with a downward spiral guide groove. When the drive motor rotates one revolution, a tray on the distributing spiral block just falls from inside the surrounding plate into the belt X-axis assembly.
[0007] Furthermore, the caliber adjustment mechanism is a lead screw and slider structure, which can be operated manually or automatically, and can adjust the position of the enclosure in the X and Y directions.
[0008] Furthermore, the belt X-direction assembly is a synchronous belt structure, and multiple fixing holes are equally spaced on the synchronous belt of the belt X-direction assembly. The fixing holes are used to fix the card trays. The multiple card trays are fixed in the fixing holes according to the size of the tray box, and are used to lock and fix the tray box that falls from the tray box adjustment assembly. The spacing between the card trays is adjusted according to different tray box sizes.
[0009] Furthermore, the structure of the tray-laying synchronous belt assembly includes a tray-laying synchronous belt, a tray-laying machine belt pusher, and a material conveying belt. The tray-laying synchronous belt is driven by a drive mechanism to reciprocate. A tray-laying machine belt pusher is fixedly installed on the tray-laying synchronous belt. The tray-laying machine belt pusher can reciprocate synchronously with the tray-laying synchronous belt. One end of the material conveying belt is movably sleeved on the tray-laying machine belt pusher. The material conveying belt can reciprocate in length and length under the drive of the tray-laying machine belt pusher, causing the material on the material conveying belt to fall into the tray trough in the belt X-direction assembly.
[0010] Furthermore, the structure of the lateral shifting assembly includes multiple transmission rollers mounted on the frame, a lateral shifting synchronous belt and its drive mounted on the frame, and a paddle block mounted on the lateral shifting synchronous belt. The paddle block, driven synchronously by the lateral shifting synchronous belt and its drive, moves the tray filled with material on the transmission rollers to transfer the tray.
[0011] Furthermore, the frame and the body are either integrally formed or separately arranged.
[0012] Furthermore, the transmission roller can be configured to different transport directions depending on the actual transport direction.
[0013] Furthermore, the number of the enclosure panels is four, with the snap-fit surfaces of the four enclosure panels facing inward, and they are matched and snap-fitted to fix the tray.
[0014] Compared with the prior art, the advantages of this utility model are: this utility model uses a material distribution spiral block to separate trays, making the trays easy to separate and prevent them from sticking together. At the same time, the side plate of the tray adjustment component body is provided with a diameter adjustment mechanism for adjusting the distance between each other, which can meet the packaging of trays of various specifications.

[0030] like Figures 1-12As shown, this utility model of an automatic tray-separating and filling machine includes a machine body 1, a tray adjustment assembly 2, a belt X-direction assembly 3, a tray-distribution synchronous belt assembly 4, and a side-shifting assembly 5. The tray adjustment assembly 2 is located at one end of the machine body 1. The structure of the tray adjustment assembly 2 includes a tray adjustment assembly body 21 and a distributing spiral block 22. The tray adjustment assembly body 21 includes four vertically arranged "∟"-shaped side panels. Multiple unfilled trays are stacked inside the side panels. The four side panels are provided with a diameter adjustment mechanism 23 for adjusting the distance between them. The diameter adjustment mechanism 23 is a screw-slider structure or a manual adjustment mechanism. The enclosure can be adjusted, either manually or automatically, in the X and Y directions to create stacking spaces for trays of different diameters, thus securing trays of varying sizes. Each enclosure has a material distribution auger block 22 at its lower end, with the lowest tray inside the enclosure positioned on top of the auger block 22. Each auger block 22 is equipped with a drive motor, and all four drive motors rotate synchronously. The auger block 22 has a downward spiral guide groove. As each drive motor rotates one revolution, a tray on the auger block 22 falls from inside the enclosure into the X-axis belt assembly 3. The belt X-direction assembly 3 is horizontally positioned below the tray adjustment assembly 2. The belt X-direction assembly 3 is a synchronous belt structure. Multiple fixing holes 31 are evenly spaced on the synchronous belt of the belt X-direction assembly 3. These fixing holes 31 are used to fix tray holders 32. The multiple tray holders 32 are fixed within the fixing holes 31 according to the tray size, and are used to secure trays falling from the tray adjustment assembly 2. The spacing between the tray holders 32 is adjusted according to different tray sizes. The belt X-direction assembly 3 is used to catch and transfer trays falling from the tray adjustment assembly 2. The tray-arranging synchronous belt assembly 4 is located at the other end of the machine body 1, and is situated below the belt X-direction assembly. Above 3, the structure of the tray-laying synchronous belt assembly 4 includes a tray-laying synchronous belt 41, a tray-laying machine belt pusher 43, and a material conveying belt 42. The tray-laying synchronous belt 41 is driven by a drive mechanism to reciprocate. The tray-laying machine belt pusher 43 is fixedly installed on the tray-laying synchronous belt 41. The tray-laying machine belt pusher 43 can reciprocate synchronously with the tray-laying synchronous belt 41. One end of the material conveying belt 42 is movably sleeved on the tray-laying machine belt pusher 43. The material conveying belt 42 can reciprocate in length and length under the drive of the tray-laying machine belt pusher 43, causing the material on the material conveying belt 42 to fall into the tray trough inside the belt X-direction assembly 3. The tray-laying synchronous belt assembly 4 is used to sequentially dispense materials into the trays inside the belt X-direction assembly 3. The side-shifting assembly 5 is located at the discharge end of the belt X-direction assembly 3. The side-shifting assembly 5 is used to transfer the trays filled with materials. The side-shifting assembly 5 is either integrally installed with the machine body 1 or separately installed.The structure of the lateral shifting assembly 5 includes multiple transmission rollers 52 mounted on the frame 51, a lateral shifting synchronous belt and its drive 53 mounted on the frame 51, and a paddle block 54 mounted on the lateral shifting synchronous belt. The paddle block 54, under the synchronous drive of the lateral shifting synchronous belt and its drive 53, moves the tray filled with material on the transmission rollers 52 to transfer the tray. The transmission rollers 52 can be set to different transfer directions according to the actual transfer direction.
[0031] The working process of this utility model is as follows: Multiple trays are stacked inside the enclosure. The material distribution auger block 22 rotates once and releases one tray downwards. The falling tray falls into the tray position formed by the cooperation of two card holders 32. It moves with the belt X-direction component 3 to the bottom of the tray tray synchronous belt component 4. One end of the material conveying belt 42 is movably sleeved on the tray tray machine belt push block 43. The material conveying belt 42 can reciprocate in lengthening and shortening under the drive of the tray tray machine belt push block 43, so that the material on the material conveying belt 42 falls into the tray material trough in the belt X-direction component 3. The tray filled with material then enters the side shift component 5. The push block 54, driven by the side shift synchronous belt and its drive 53, pushes the tray filled with material to move on the transmission roller 52 to transfer the tray.
[0032] This utility model utilizes the material distribution spiral block 22 to separate the trays, making the trays easy to separate and prevent them from sticking together. At the same time, the tray adjustment component body 21 is provided with a diameter adjustment mechanism 23 on its surrounding plate for adjusting the distance between each other. The diameter adjustment mechanism 23 can meet the packaging needs of trays of various sizes.
[0033] The embodiments of the present invention have been described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments. Within the scope of knowledge possessed by those skilled in the art, various changes can be made without departing from the spirit of the present invention.
