Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to address the aforementioned technical problems by providing an automatic bottle loading machine that can improve the bottle loading efficiency of the clamping device.
[0005] In view of this, the present invention provides an automatic bottle loading machine, characterized in that it includes a frame and a sterilization device, wherein the frame is provided with:
[0006] A diversion device is fixedly mounted on the frame and is used to divert the medicine bottle.
[0007] A transport device is disposed between a diversion device and a sterilization device, and the transport device is used to transfer medicine bottles to the sterilization device.
[0008] A clamping device is mounted on a transport device and is used to securely clamp the medicine bottle.
[0009] In this technical solution, the medicine bottles enter the diversion device to divert the medicine bottles so that the clamping device can better hold the medicine bottles. The clamped medicine bottles are then transported to the sterilization device by the transport device, thereby improving the efficiency of automatic bottle loading.
[0010] Furthermore, a supply device is provided on the frame, which is located inside the diversion device and is used to supply multiple medicine bottles to the diversion device.
[0011] In this technical solution, the supply device can use belt drive to move the medicine bottle.
[0012] Furthermore, the diversion device includes:
[0013] Diverter plate, the diverter plate is arranged above the supply device along the movement direction of the supply device, the diverter plate has a gap with the supply device assembly, multiple diverter plates are provided, a channel is formed between two diverter plates, and the width of the channel is adapted to the diameter of the medicine bottle;
[0014] A stop block is provided at the output end of the supply device, and there is a gap between the stop block and the supply device. The stop block is fixedly connected to one end of the diverter plate.
[0015] In this technical solution, medicine bottles randomly placed on the supply device are arranged in an orderly manner in the channel through the channel between the diverting plates under the action of the diverting plates. The stop block is set at the output end of the supply device to block the movement of the medicine bottles, so that the medicine bottles stop in the channel and are arranged in a row. At this time, the supply device continues to operate, so that multiple medicine bottles are tightly squeezed together. The width of the channel is adapted to the diameter of the medicine bottles, so that the medicine bottles in the channel are aligned, so that the clamping device can better clamp the medicine bottles.
[0016] Furthermore, the supply device is provided with fixing plates on both sides, the fixing plates are fixedly mounted on the frame, the height of the fixing plates is greater than half the height of the medicine bottle, and the height of the stop block is greater than half the height of the medicine bottle.
[0017] In this technical solution, the fixing plate can restrict the position of the medicine bottle and prevent the medicine bottle from falling from both sides of the supply device. The height of the fixing plate and the stop is greater than half the height of the medicine bottle, so as to prevent the medicine bottle from being overturned onto the frame under the action of power when the fixing plate and the stop are blocking the medicine bottle, thus protecting the medicine bottle.
[0018] Furthermore, a support column is fixedly provided at one end of the diverter plate, and the support column is cylindrical.
[0019] In this technical solution, the support column is cylindrical, which allows the medicine bottle to enter the channel smoothly and prevents the medicine bottle from being bumped and broken during the process, thus better protecting the medicine bottle.
[0020] Further, a support frame is fixedly arranged on the fixed plate. The support frame is in a shape of "冂". The vertical rod on the support frame is fixedly connected to the fixed plate, and the horizontal rod on the support frame is fixedly connected to the support column. The distance from the horizontal rod on the support frame to the surface of the supply device is greater than the height of the medicine bottle.
[0021] In this technical solution, the distance from the horizontal rod to the surface of the supply device is greater than the height of the medicine bottle so that the medicine bottle can enter through between the support columns. Since there is a gap between the shunt plate and the supply device, the support rod is also suspended on the supply device, and the support frame is fixed to the support rod to facilitate fixing the support rod and prevent the support rod from being knocked down by the medicine bottle during transportation.
[0022] Further, the transportation device is arranged at the output end of the supply device. The transportation device includes:
[0023] A workbench, which is arranged on one side of the frame. A power source is fixedly arranged below the workbench.

[0025] A connecting piece, which is fixedly arranged on the rotating shaft. A clamping device is fixedly arranged on the connecting piece.
[0026] A telescopic component, which is arranged on the connecting piece. The telescopic component passes through the connecting piece and is connected to the clamping device. The telescopic component is used to control the lifting and lowering of the clamping device.
[0027] In this technical solution, the power source can use a motor to drive the rotating shaft to rotate. The telescopic component can use a cylinder. The rotation of the rotating shaft drives the connecting piece to rotate, thereby driving the clamping device on the connecting piece to rotate. The clamping device is rotated to directly above the shunt device. The telescopic component is used to control the clamping device to move downwards close to the medicine bottle. After clamping the medicine bottle, the clamping device is moved upwards, and the rotating shaft is rotated so that the clamping device clamping the medicine bottle is rotated to the sterilization device.
[0028] Further, there are multiple connecting pieces, and the multiple connecting pieces are equidistantly arranged on the rotating shaft along the circumferential direction.
[0029] In this technical solution, there are multiple connecting pieces arranged on the rotating shaft, so there are multiple groups of clamping devices on the rotating shaft. The multiple groups of clamping devices rotate together. Compared with clamping the medicine bottle once, more medicine bottles can be clamped within a certain period of time, which can improve the clamping efficiency and thus improve the bottle loading efficiency of the medicine bottle.
[0030] Furthermore, the clamping device is provided with clamping hands, and there are multiple clamping hands. The distance between the clamping hands corresponds to the distance between the axes of the medicine bottles, and the number of rows of clamping hands is the same as the number of rows of channels.
[0031] Furthermore, the sterilization device is positioned on the rotation path of the clamping device.
[0032] In this technical solution, the sterilization device is positioned on the rotation path of the clamping device to facilitate the placement of the medicine bottle onto the sterilization device.
[0033] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0034] 1. This utility model enables medicine bottles randomly placed on the supply device to be arranged in an orderly manner in the channel through the channel between the diverting plates under the action of the diverting plates. The stop block is set at the output end of the supply device to block the movement of the medicine bottles, so that the medicine bottles stop in the channel and are arranged in a row. At this time, the supply device continues to operate, so that multiple medicine bottles are tightly squeezed together. The width of the channel is adapted to the diameter of the medicine bottle, so that the medicine bottles in the channel are aligned, so that the clamping device can better clamp the medicine bottles.
