Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to a packaging accessory for lubricating oil drums, and more particularly to a drum drop buffer mechanism for packaging lubricating oil drums. Background Technology

[0002] The drums filled with lubricating oil need to be transported and accumulated to a certain quantity before being packed into boxes.

[0003] Normally, the opened carton will remain on the conveyor belt. After the lubricating oil drums are stacked, they will be lowered into the carton. During this process, it is necessary to ensure that the outermost lubricating oil drums are completely inside the carton. Summary of the Invention

[0004] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides a drop-down buffer mechanism for packaging lubricating oil drums. This mechanism surrounds the edge of the lubricating oil drum as it falls, providing cushioning and limiting the movement of the drum at the edge, ensuring that the drum falls intact and smoothly into the carton. The technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows:

[0005] A drum-dropping buffer mechanism for packaging lubricating oil drums includes a stop and a buffer, wherein the stop includes:

[0006] Upper frame;

[0007] Several baffles are equidistantly arranged within the upper frame, and the baffles extend along the first horizontal direction, dividing the interior of the baffle into several drop gaps.

[0008] The buffer section includes:

[0009] The lower frame is located below the upper frame, and the inner edge of the lower frame extends diagonally downward to form a slanted frame that is wider at the top and narrower at the bottom.

[0010] Several elastic sheets are evenly attached to the outer side of the inclined frame so that a buffer space is formed on the inner side of the elastic sheets;

[0011] The upper frame is capable of sliding along a second horizontal direction so that the drop gap is aligned with or misaligned with the buffer space.

[0012] Furthermore, the stop also includes:

[0013] A screw passes through the upper frame along a second horizontal direction, and the screw passes through several of the stop bars in sequence. Nuts are provided on both sides of each of the stop bars, and the nuts are threaded to the screw.

[0014] Furthermore, the stop also includes:

[0015] The cylinder is connected to one side of the upper frame and is arranged along the second horizontal direction.

[0016] Furthermore, the stop also includes:

[0017] Two sliders are respectively arranged on both sides of the upper frame, and the sliders are arranged along the second horizontal direction;

[0018] Several brackets are respectively connected between the slide bar and the upper frame.

[0019] Furthermore, the elastic sheet is an elastic metal sheet or a plastic sheet.

[0020] Advantages of this utility model:

[0021] The baffle allows the lubricating oil drum to fall into the carton under its own weight, eliminating the need for an additional lifting drive structure and reducing costs. The buffer section surrounds the lubricating oil drum at the edge when it falls, cushioning and limiting the lubricating oil drum at the edge, ensuring that the lubricating oil drum at the edge falls into the carton intact and smoothly, and ensuring that the lubricating oil drums are stacked neatly in the carton.

[0022] Figure 1 This is a structural diagram of the present invention.

[0023] Figure 2 This is a plan view of the buffer section.

[0024] In the diagram: 10-stop section, 20-buffer section, 110-upper frame, 120-stop bar, 130-screw, 140-cylinder, 150-slide bar, 160-bracket, 210-lower frame, 220-slanted frame, 230-elastic sheet. Detailed Implementation

[0025] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain this utility model and are not intended to limit this utility model.

[0026] Please see the appendix Figure 1 and attached Figure 2This application proposes a drop buffer mechanism for packaging lubricating oil drums, including a stop 10 and a buffer 20. The stop 10 includes an upper frame 110 and a plurality of baffles 120, which are equidistantly spaced within the upper frame 110 and extend along a first horizontal direction to divide the interior of the stop 10 into a plurality of drop gaps. The buffer 20 includes a lower frame 210 located below the upper frame 110, with the inner edge of the lower frame 210 extending obliquely downward to form a sloping frame 220 that is wider at the top and narrower at the bottom; and a plurality of elastic sheets 230 uniformly attached to the outer surface of the sloping frame 220 to form a buffer space inside the elastic sheets 230. The upper frame 110 is slidable along a second horizontal direction so that the drop gaps are aligned with or misaligned with the buffer space.

[0027] In the appendix Figure 1 In the middle, the upper frame 110 and the lower frame 210 are both rectangular frames. In actual use, the upper frame 110 and the lower frame 210 are fixed by a support frame with a hollow center. When stacking lubricating oil drums, the drums sit on the baffles 120 one by one. Due to the baffles 120, the drums will not fall downwards. After the drums are stacked, the upper frame 110 slides, causing the baffles 120 to move, thus misaligning the baffles 120 with the bottom of the drums. The drums lose their support and enter the buffer space from the gap. The lower frame 210... The inclined frame 220 and the lower frame 210 also have four sides, so the four elastic pieces 230 gradually retract inward, allowing the carton to cover the four elastic pieces 230 from bottom to top. When the lubricating oil drum falls, the four elastic pieces 230 open outward after contacting the edge of the lubricating oil drum, which can both open the carton and cushion the lubricating oil drum, prevent the lubricating oil drum from hitting the edge of the carton, and allow the lubricating oil drum to fall steadily into the carton. Then the elastic pieces 230 use their own elasticity to return to their original shape, preparing for the next drum drop.

[0028] As some embodiments of this application, the elastic sheet 230 is in the shape of an arc or an isosceles trapezoid.

[0029] To facilitate adjustment of the drop gap width and adapt to different types of lubricating oil drums, the stop 10 also includes a screw 130 that passes through the upper frame 110 along a second horizontal direction. The screw 130 sequentially passes through several stop bars 120. Nuts are provided on both sides of each stop bar 120, and the nuts are threadedly connected to the screw 130. The position of the stop bar 120 is adjusted by adjusting the position of the nuts, thereby adjusting the width of different drop gaps. Specifically, nuts are also provided on both sides of the upper frame 110. By removing the nuts, the screw 130 can be removed, and the stop bars 120 can be removed at the same time, facilitating replacement of the stop bars 120 after deformation.

[0030] In one embodiment, in order to achieve automatic switching of the position of the upper frame 110, the stop 10 further includes a cylinder 140, which is connected to one side of the upper frame 110 and arranged along the second horizontal direction.

[0031] In another embodiment, the upper frame 110 is slid manually. Although the position of the upper frame 110 can be switched, it requires a lot of manpower.

[0032] In addition, to limit the sliding trajectory of the upper frame 110, the stop 10 further includes: two slide bars 150, respectively arranged on both sides of the upper frame 110, the slide bars 150 being arranged along a second horizontal direction; and several brackets 160, respectively connected between the slide bars 150 and the upper frame 110.

[0033] In the appendix Figure 1 In the middle, each slider 150 is connected to the upper frame 110 through two brackets 160; the brackets 160 are right-angled, with their sides welded to the side of the upper frame 110 and their bottom edges welded to the top surface of the slider 150, so that the bottom surface of the slider 150 is lower than the bottom surface of the upper frame 110; in use, the slider 150 is assembled on the slide groove of the support frame, and the sliding connection between the slide groove and the slider 150 is used to ensure the sliding stability of the upper frame 110 and limit the sliding trajectory of the upper frame 110.

[0034] To achieve the elastic deformation of the elastic sheet 230, in a specific embodiment of this application, the elastic sheet 230 is an elastic metal sheet or a plastic sheet. The friction between the metal or plastic sheet and the lubricating oil drum is small, which can both reduce the deviation of the lubricating oil drum when it falls and buffer the lubricating oil drum when it falls.

[0035] In other embodiments, the elastic sheet 230 is a thin rubber sheet. Although a thin rubber sheet also has the function of elastic deformation, rubber has a higher coefficient of friction than metal or plastic. When it comes into contact with the lubricating oil drum, it can easily cause the lubricating oil drum to tilt or shift, thereby affecting the neatness of the lubricating oil drum after it falls into the cardboard box.

[0036] Finally, it should be noted that the above specific embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solution of this utility model and not to limit it. Although this utility model has been described in detail with reference to examples, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications or equivalent substitutions can be made to the technical solution of this utility model without departing from the spirit and scope of the technical solution of this utility model, and all such modifications and substitutions should be covered within the scope of the claims of this utility model.
