Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of capping machine technology, and in particular to a double-head vacuum capping machine. Background Technology

[0002] A vacuum capping machine is a device that screws three or four tinplate caps onto the mouth of a glass bottle. Before capping, the air inside the bottle is extracted and the capping is completed simultaneously. After the cap is screwed on, the bottle is in a vacuum state, which effectively extends the shelf life of the contents. It is widely used in the glass-filled food industry.

[0003] Existing vacuum capping machines come in two structural forms: rotary and linear. However, existing rotary vacuum capping machines have significant drawbacks: (1) Rotary vacuum capping machines are prone to bottle jamming and bottle explosion during the bottle feeding process; (2) Vacuum loss is high during capping, requiring a matching vacuum pump with a power of over 3 kilowatts, and the vacuum pump operates continuously, increasing operating costs; (3) For round bottles of sauce, the production efficiency of rotary machines is halved when there is oil at the bottle opening. Linear vacuum capping machines are generally four-head or six-head vacuum capping machines. The capping process of linear vacuum capping machines is intermittent. When the bottles are fed in, the bottle separating device separates the bottles by a certain distance, and then the bottle blocking device blocks the bottles. When the bottle blocking device blocks the bottles, the material inside the bottles will overflow due to inertia, contaminating the packaging line and affecting product quality. To prevent the material from overflowing, the bottle conveying speed can only be reduced to reduce the bottle inertia, but this affects production efficiency. Therefore, we propose a double-head vacuum capping machine to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows:

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0015] 1. This utility model, through its conveying, lifting, capping, and clamping components, achieves fully automated slow-speed bottle conveying, automatic capping, cylinder-based bottle separation, bottle clamping, sealing, vacuuming, and capping. The capping mechanism employs a continuous bottle clamping and automatic capping mechanism, cylinder-based bottle separation, silicone bottle clamping, sealing, vacuuming, and capping. During the process, bottle explosions and material spillage are prevented, ensuring product quality, high output, and good versatility. All adjustable parts are equipped with scales and digital adjustment parameters. When changing bottle types, only the silicone bottle clamping seal and the height of the capping device need to be replaced, making adjustment simple and efficient. During vacuum capping, all parts in contact with the bottle cap are made of silicone, providing flexible contact that does not damage the bottle or cap, ensuring a good seal and improving product quality and production efficiency.

This utility model, through the set synchronization component, can realize the capping action while the bottle is moving continuously, avoiding liquid spillage or bottle mouth contamination caused by pauses, while improving production efficiency. It uses a pneumatic actuator to control the capping torque and adjusts parameters digitally through a touch screen to ensure uniform capping force and avoid problems of not tightening or tightening too much. At the same time, the tracking system accurately controls the position of the bottle and the capping trajectory, realizing synchronous operation under high-speed movement and improving sealing reliability.

[0024] To make the technical means, creative features, objectives and effects of this utility model easier to understand, the present utility model will be further described below in conjunction with specific embodiments.

[0025] Example 1, as Figure 1 As shown, a double-head vacuum capping machine includes a conveying component 1, a support component 2 is provided at the front of the conveying component 1, a synchronization component 3 is rotatably connected to the left side of the support component 2, a lifting component 4 is fixedly connected to the lower part of the synchronization component 3, a capping component 5 is fixedly connected to the lower part of the lifting component 4, and a bottle clamping component 6 is fixedly connected to the upper part of the lifting component 4.

[0026] In implementation, the operator first connects the vacuum pump to the suction pipe, then places the bottle on the conveying assembly 1 and starts the conveying assembly 1 to move the bottle. When the bottle moves to the bottle clamping assembly 6, the sensor at the bottom of the bottle clamping assembly 6 will activate the bottle clamping assembly 6 and the synchronization assembly 3 to clamp the bottle clamping assembly 6 and move it synchronously. At the same time, the lifting assembly 4 will be activated to lower the capping assembly 5. At this time, the vacuum pump will first evacuate the air from the capping assembly 5 and the bottle, and then the capping assembly 5 will start to cap the bottle, achieving the effect of automatic capping.

[0027] Specifically, for screw-top bottles, such as Figure 3 As shown, in this scheme, the conveying assembly 1 includes a base plate 11, a fixing plate 12 is fixedly connected to the rear end of the base plate 11, a motor 13 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the fixing plate 12, two pulleys 14 are rotatably connected to the rear end of the base plate 11, a belt 15 is wound around the outer surface of the two pulleys 14, a shaft 16 is fixedly connected to the front end of each of the two motors 13, a conveyor belt 17 is rotatably connected to the outer surface of each of the two shafts 16, and the output end of the motor 13 is fixedly connected to the rear end of the pulley 14 located on the right side through a coupling.

[0028] For further details, please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 2The support assembly 2 includes support rods 21. Both support rods 21 are located at the front of the base plate 11, and both support rods 21 are fixedly connected to a fixed shell 22 at their upper ends.

[0029] For further details, please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 3 and Figure 4 The lifting assembly 4 includes a sliding plate 41. Both inner surfaces of the sliding plate 41 are slidably connected to the outer surfaces of the threaded rod 34 and the guide rod 35. A lifting cylinder 42 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the sliding plate 41, and a connecting plate 43 is fixedly connected to the lower end of the lifting cylinder 42.

[0030] For further details, please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 3 and Figure 5 The capping assembly 5 includes connecting shafts 51. The upper ends of several connecting shafts 51 are fixedly connected to the lower ends of connecting plates 43. Two fixing plates 53 are fixedly connected to the outer surfaces of several connecting shafts 51. Pneumatic actuators 52 are fixedly connected to the upper ends of the two fixing plates 53. Two fixing plates 54 are fixedly connected to the lower ends of several connecting shafts 51. Protective shells 55 are fixedly connected to the upper ends of the two fixing plates 54 and the lower ends of the two fixing plates 53. Sealing shells 56 are fixedly connected to the lower ends of the two fixing plates 54. The output ends of the two pneumatic actuators 52 are fixedly connected to the capping head body 57 through couplings.

[0031] For further details, please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 2 The bottle clamping assembly 6 includes a bidirectional cylinder 61. The lower end of the bidirectional cylinder 61 is fixedly connected to the middle of the upper end of the fixing plate 53. The output ends of the bidirectional cylinder 61 are all fixedly connected to the bottle clamping plates 62 through couplings.

[0032] For further details, please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 6 The left and right ends of the threaded rod 34 are rotatably connected to the left and right side walls of the inner cavity of the fixed shell 22. The output end of the motor 2 33 is fixedly connected to the rear end of the pulley 2 31 located at the rear through a coupling.

[0033] When implementing this solution, the operator first connects the vacuum pump to the suction pipe. Then, the operator places the bottle on the conveyor belt 17 and starts the motor 13 to drive the pulley 14, belt 15, shaft 16 and conveyor belt 17 to rotate and move the bottle. When the bottle moves under the bottle clamping plate 62, the sensor at the bottom of the bottle clamping plate 62 will start the bidirectional cylinder 61 and the motor 2 33. As a result, the bottle clamping plates 62 will move closer to each other and clamp the bottle. Meanwhile, the synchronization component 3 will make the lifting component 4, the capping component 5 and the bottle clamping component 6 move synchronously with the bottle.

[0034] At the same time, the lifting cylinder 42 will be activated to push the connecting plate 43, the capping assembly 5 and the bottle clamping assembly 6 to descend as a whole, allowing the bottle to enter the sealing shell 56. At this time, the vacuum pump will first extract the air from the sealing shell 56 and the bottle, and then the pneumatic actuator 52 will be activated, thereby driving the capping head body 57 to rotate to cap the bottle, achieving the effect of automatic capping.

[0035] Example 2, based on Example 1, enables tracking movement for capping.

[0036] Specifically, the cap is screwed on for repositioning, such as... Figure 6 As shown, in this scheme, the synchronization component 3 includes pulley 2 31. The right ends of both pulley 2 31 are rotatably connected to the left end of the support rod 21. Belt 2 32 is wound around the outer surface of both pulley 2 31. Motor 2 33 is fixedly connected to the right side of the bottom wall of the inner cavity of the support rod 21. Threaded rod 34 is fixedly connected to the left end of the pulley 2 31 at the front via a shaft. Guide rod 35 is fixedly connected to the left and right sides of the inner cavity of the support rod 21.

[0037] When this solution is implemented, when motor 2 33 starts, pulley 2 31, belt 2 32 and threaded rod 34 will rotate, which will cause support rod 21 to slide on guide rod 35 and move synchronously with the bottle, achieving the effect of moving and screwing on at the same time.

[0038] Meanwhile, a sensor is fixedly connected to the lower part of the bottle clamping plate 62, which can sense the bottle and thus activate the lifting cylinder 42, the pneumatic actuator 52, and the bidirectional cylinder 61.

[0039] In summary, the implementation process of this utility model is as follows:

[0040] The operator first connects the vacuum pump to the suction pipe. Then, the operator places the bottle on the conveyor belt 17 and starts the motor 13 to drive the pulley 14, belt 15, shaft 16 and conveyor belt 17 to rotate and move the bottle. When the bottle moves under the bottle clamping plate 62, the sensor at the bottom of the bottle clamping plate 62 will start the bidirectional cylinder 61 and the motor 2 33. As a result, the bottle clamping plates 62 will move closer to each other and clamp the bottle. Meanwhile, the synchronization component 3 will make the lifting component 4, the capping component 5 and the bottle clamping component 6 move synchronously with the bottle.

[0041] At the same time, the lifting cylinder 42 will be activated to push the connecting plate 43, the capping assembly 5 and the bottle clamping assembly 6 to descend as a whole, so that the bottle enters the sealing shell 56. At this time, the vacuum pump will first extract the air from the sealing shell 56 and the bottle, and then the pneumatic actuator 52 will be activated, thereby driving the capping head body 57 to rotate to cap the bottle, so as to achieve the effect of automatic capping.

[0042] When motor 2 33 starts, pulley 2 31, belt 2 32 and threaded rod 34 will rotate, which will cause support rod 21 to slide on guide rod 35 and move synchronously with the bottle, achieving the effect of moving and screwing on the cap at the same time.

[0043] It should be noted that the specific installation methods, circuit connection methods, and control methods of the motor 13, motor 23, lifting cylinder 42, pneumatic actuator 52, and bidirectional cylinder 61 used in this utility model are all conventional designs, and will not be described in detail in this utility model.
