Detailed Implementation

[0025] The invention will now be further described with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments:

[0026] Example 1

[0027] Please see Figures 1 to 3Embodiment 1 includes a conveyor belt 10, which is fitted onto two rollers 13. The rollers 13 drive the conveyor belt 10 to rotate. The rollers 13 are rotatably connected to a support plate 12, which provides installation conditions. One end of the rollers 13 is fixedly connected to the output end of a first motor 18, which drives the rollers 13 to rotate. A fixing groove 11 is formed inside the conveyor belt 10. The fixing groove 11 limits the positioning of the fixing components 20. The fixing components 20 are slidably connected in the fixing groove 11. Multiple fixing components 20 are arranged in an array. The fixing components 20 have arc surfaces 23 on both sides. Two fixing components 20 are aligned with a glass... The glass bottle is clamped, and a mounting frame 14 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the support plate 12. A vision component is fixedly connected to the mounting frame 14. The vision component inspects the glass bottle, including detecting bubbles. A discharge component 30 is provided on one side of the vision component. Glass bottles that pass inspection are processed by the discharge component 30. The discharge component 30 includes a push cylinder 31 fixedly connected to the support plate 12. A push rod 32 that passes through the support plate 12 is movably connected to the output end of the push cylinder 31. A soft pad 33 is fixedly connected to one end of the push rod 32. A first photoelectric sensor 34 fixedly connected to the support plate 12 is provided on one side of the soft pad 33. The first sensor detects qualified glass bottles. When a glass bottle is inserted, the push cylinder 31 is activated. The push cylinder 31 pushes the push rod 32 and the soft pad 33 to push the glass bottle out. A discharge trough 19 is provided on the side of the support plate 12 away from the push cylinder 31. The glass bottle is discharged from the discharge trough 19. The discharge trough 19 is connected to a discharge hopper 35. The discharge hopper 35 is inclined to facilitate the movement of the glass bottle. A pressure plate 38 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the side of the discharge hopper 35 near the discharge trough 19. The function of the pressure plate 38 is to prevent the glass bottle from being discarded. A second photoelectric sensor 39 is provided on the pressure plate 38 to detect the glass bottle entering. Several sets of symmetrically arranged servo motors are fixedly connected to the lower end of the discharge hopper 35. The output end of the servo motor 37 passes through the bottom surface of the discharge hopper 35 and is fixedly connected to the clamping plate 36. Two servo motors 37 drive the clamping plate 36 to rotate as a group. There is an angle between the clamping plates 36 in the group. When the glass bottle enters, the ends of the two glass bottles approach each other, blocking and slowing down the glass bottle, and then opening to allow it to pass. The clamping plate 36 blocks and releases in sequence to complete the protective conveying of the glass bottle. A semi-open protective plate 16 is fixedly connected to the outside of the support plate 12. The bottom end of the protective plate 16 is connected to the waste hopper 17. The feeding side of the protective plate 16 is open to facilitate the insertion of glass bottles, and the end is closed to intercept them and make them fall from the waste hopper 17.

[0028] In this embodiment, the glass bottle is placed flat between two fixing components 20. The arc surface 23 of the fixing component 20 can limit the glass bottle. The first motor 18 is started, and the first motor 18 drives the roller 13 to rotate. The roller 13 drives the conveyor belt 10 to move intermittently. When the glass bottle moves to the vision component, the vision component detects the glass bottle and marks it. Qualified glass bottles are sensed by the first photoelectric sensor 34. The push cylinder 31 pushes the push rod 32. The push rod 32 drives the soft pad 33 to push out and then push the glass bottle to the discharge chute 19. The glass bottle enters the discharge hopper 35. The second photoelectric sensor 39 senses the entry of the glass bottle. The servo motor 37 drives the clamping plate 36 to form an angle to block the glass bottle. The clamping plate 36 opens in sequence, which can limit the speed of the glass bottle and make it discharge steadily. Qualified glass bottles continue to move forward and fall into the guard plate 16 at the end of the conveyor belt 10 and then roll into the waste hopper 17 for discharge.

[0029] Example 2

[0030] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 4 Embodiment 2 describes a fixing component 20 including a clamping block 21. The clamping block 21 has arc surfaces 23 on both sides to facilitate the placement of glass bottles. A fixing block 22 is fixedly connected to the lower end of the clamping block 21. The fixing block 22 slides within a fixing groove 11. A sliding groove 29 is provided within the fixing block 22. A fixing plate 27 is slidably connected within the sliding groove 29. The fixing plate 27 slides within the sliding groove 29. Several toothed blocks 28 are fixedly connected to the lower end of the fixing plate 27. Several toothed blocks 28 are arranged in an array within the fixing groove 11. When the fixing plate 27 is at the lower end of the sliding groove 29, the toothed blocks 28 on the fixing plate 27 and the toothed blocks 28 in the fixing groove 11 engage; otherwise, they disengage. A bolt 25 is rotatably connected to the upper end of the fixing plate 27. The bolt 25 passes through a through hole 24 in the clamping block 21. A threaded sleeve 26 is fixedly connected within the through hole 24. The bolt 25 is threadedly connected to the threaded sleeve 26. The bolt 25 rotates within the threaded sleeve 26 to raise or lower the fixing plate 27.

[0031] In this embodiment, the bolt 25 is rotated, and the bolt 25 rotates in the threaded sleeve 26, moving the fixing plate 27 to the upper end of the slide groove 29, so that the toothed block 28 on the fixing plate 27 disengages from the toothed block 28 in the fixing groove 11. Then, the clamping block 21 is moved, and the clamping block 21 drives the fixing block 22 to move in the fixing groove 11. After moving to the appropriate position, the bolt 25 is rotated, and the bolt 25 drives the fixing plate 27 to slide downward, so that the toothed block 28 on the fixing plate 27 engages with the toothed block 28 in the fixing groove 11, thus completing the fixing of the clamping block 21.
