[0032] Example

[0033] like Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, the present invention proposes a rapid packaging device for tea capsules, including a base plate 1, a mounting frame 2 fixedly connected to the top of the base plate 1, and a packaging module 3 installed at the bottom of the mounting frame 2. The packaging module 3 is used to package the tea capsules, which is the prior art and will not be described in detail here.

[0034] Furthermore, the aforementioned packaging equipment includes a movable frame 4 disposed below the packaging module 3. The movable frame 4 contains multiple sets of clamping components 6. Side plates 41 are provided on both sides of the movable frame 4, and the side plates 41 are fixedly connected to the top of the base plate 1. The fixed position of the side plates 41 limits the movement direction of the movable frame 4, ensuring smooth movement. Pads 42 are installed on opposite sides of the two sets of side plates 41, and both sets of pads 42 are located below the movable frame 4, providing support for the movable frame 4.

[0035] Furthermore, the aforementioned packaging equipment also includes drive mechanisms 5 installed on both sides of the movable frame 4. Drive mechanisms 5 are used to move the clamping assembly 6. The drive mechanism 5 includes a first connecting plate 51 fixedly connected to one side of the movable frame 4. The first connecting plate 51 moves synchronously with the movable frame 4. A threaded sleeve 52 is fixedly connected to the first connecting plate 51, and the first connecting plate 51 and the threaded sleeve 52 move synchronously. A threaded rod 53 is threadedly connected to the threaded sleeve 52. When the threaded rod 53 rotates, it moves the threaded sleeve 52 along the length of the threaded rod 53. First fixing plates 54 are rotatably connected to both ends of the threaded rod 53. Both sets of first fixing plates 54 are fixedly connected to the top of the base plate 1, and the first fixing plates 54 keep the threaded rod 53 in its original position. A servo motor 55 is installed on the side of one set of first fixing plates 54 away from the threaded rod 53. The output end of the servo motor 55 passes through the first fixing plate 54 for its installation and is fixedly connected to the threaded rod 53. After starting, the servo motor 55 drives the threaded rod 53 to rotate. A second connecting plate 56 is fixedly connected to the side of the movable frame 4 away from the first connecting plate 51. The second connecting plate 56 moves synchronously with the movable frame 4. A limiting sleeve 57 is fixedly connected to the second connecting plate 56, and the limiting sleeve 57 moves synchronously with the second connecting plate 56. A limiting rod 58 is slidably connected to the limiting sleeve 57. Both ends of the limiting rod 58 are fixedly connected to second fixing pieces 59. Both sets of second fixing pieces 59 are installed on the top of the base plate 1. The second fixing pieces 59 fix the position of the limiting rod 58, and together with the limiting effect of the limiting sleeve 57, make the movement of the movable frame 4 smooth.

[0036] For details, please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 4The clamping assembly 6 includes two sets of symmetrically arranged clamping blocks 61, which clamp the tea capsule base when brought close together. A support plate can also be installed at the bottom of one set of clamping blocks 61 to support the tea capsule before clamping. Tea capsules of different shapes all have the same cylindrical base shape, and the two sets of clamping blocks 61 provide stable clamping for tea capsules of different shapes. Fixing plates 62 are provided on both sides of the clamping blocks 61, and the fixing plates 62 are fixedly connected to the movable frame 4, with their positions fixed. Two sets of limiting blocks 63 are slidably connected to each of the two sets of fixing plates 62. The four sets of limiting blocks 63 are fixedly connected to both sides of the two sets of clamping blocks 61. A positioning piece 64 is fixedly connected to the end of each limiting block 63 away from the clamping block 61, and the positioning piece 64 fits against the fixing plate 62. The limiting action of the limiting blocks 63 and the positioning piece 64 ensures smooth movement of the clamping blocks 61. Multiple sets of sliding rods 65 are slidably connected to the fixed plate 62. The ends of the sliding rods 65 away from the clamping block 61 are all fixedly connected to a movable plate 66. The sliding rods 65 enable the movable plate 66 to move smoothly. Two sets of first connecting seats 67 are installed on the side of the movable plate 66 near the clamping block 61. Each of the two sets of first connecting seats 67 is rotatably connected to a connecting rod 68. The ends of the two connecting rods 68 away from the first connecting seats 67 are rotatably connected to second connecting seats 69. The two sets of second connecting seats 69 are fixedly connected to the two sets of clamping blocks 61. Through the arrangement of the first connecting seats 67, connecting rods 68, and second connecting seats 69, when the movable plate 66 moves, it drives the connecting rods 68 to deflect, thereby driving the two sets of clamping blocks 61 to move synchronously, thus achieving the clamping of the tea capsule base.

[0037] Furthermore, the aforementioned packaging equipment also includes a guide rod 7 connected to the side of the clamping assembly 6. The guide rod 7 is located on the side of the moving plate 66 away from the clamping block 61. A connecting block 71 is fixedly connected to the top of the guide rod 7, and the connecting block 71 is fixedly connected to the side of the moving plate 66. The connecting block 71 enables the guide rod 7 to move the moving plate 66 when it moves. A guide plate 8 is installed on the top of the base plate 1 below the moving frame 4. The guide plate 8 has multiple sets of guide grooves 9. The guide rod 7 is slidably connected in the guide grooves 9 and drives the clamping assembly 6 to clamp the tea capsule base. The guide grooves 9 include a first sliding groove 91 and a second sliding groove 92. The bottom of the guide rod 7 is slidably connected in the first sliding groove 91 and the second sliding groove 92. As the moving frame 4 moves as a whole, the guide rod 7 slides in the guide grooves 9. The second slide 92 is farther away from the clamping block 61 than the first slide 91. When the guide rod 7 slides from the first slide 91 into the second slide 92, it simultaneously drives the moving plate 66 away from the clamping block 61, thereby bringing the two sets of clamping blocks 61 closer to the tea capsule base for clamping.

[0038] In this embodiment, the tea capsule is first placed inside the moving frame 4. The servo motor 55 is started, and its output end drives the threaded rod 53 to rotate. Since the threaded rod 53 is threadedly connected to the threaded sleeve 52, the threaded sleeve 52 drives the first connecting plate 51 to move, thereby making the moving frame 4 move smoothly along the direction of the limiting rod 58.

[0039] During the movement of the movable frame 4, the bottom of the guide rod 7 slides within the guide groove 9 of the guide plate 8. When the guide rod 7 slides from the first slide groove 91 to the second slide groove 92, because the second slide groove 92 is farther away from the clamping block 61 than the first slide groove 91, the guide rod 7 drives the movable plate 66 to move away from the clamping block 61 via the connecting block 71. When the movable plate 66 moves, it is kept stable by the slide rod 65, while simultaneously pulling the connecting rod 68 to deflect. Since the two ends of the connecting rod 68 are rotatably connected to the first connecting seat 67 and the second connecting seat 69 respectively, the deflected connecting rod 68 drives the two sets of clamping blocks 61 to move closer synchronously.

[0040] Since the bases of tea capsules of different shapes are all cylindrical, the two sets of clamping blocks 61 can stably clamp the base of the tea capsule when they come close together. The limiting block 63 and the positioning piece 64 play a limiting role during the movement of the clamping block 61, ensuring that the clamping block 61 moves smoothly. After clamping is completed, the packaging module 3 performs a packaging operation on the tea capsule, realizing the rapid and stable packaging of tea capsules of different shapes.

[0041] The above specific embodiments are merely optional embodiments of this utility model. Based on the technical solution of this utility model and the relevant teachings of the above embodiments, those skilled in the art can make various alternative improvements and combinations to the above specific embodiments.
