Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of bucket separating devices, specifically an automatic bucket separating device suitable for various bucket sizes. Background Technology
[0002] Wide-mouth drums are barrel-shaped containers with a wide opening at the top. They are typically used for storing and transporting liquids, powders, or granular substances. Their wide opening design facilitates quick filling and pouring of materials, while also making them easy to clean and handle. Wide-mouth drums are widely used in industries such as chemical, food, pharmaceutical, and coating. Common materials include plastics and metals. They have good sealing properties and corrosion resistance, and can meet the needs of use in different environments.
[0003] Wide-mouth barrels can save a lot of space by being stacked together, making them easy to store in warehouses and load during transportation. This stacking method can effectively improve space utilization and reduce transportation costs. On automated production lines, wide-mouth barrels need to go through filling, sealing, labeling and other processes one by one. For example, a fully automatic barrel loading machine can separate stacked barrels one by one and put them on the production line for filling and sealing operations. If the barrels are not separated, these automated operations cannot be performed.
[0004] During the process of separating wide-mouth barrels, there is a certain friction between them because the wide-mouth barrels are stacked and tightly inserted together. When trying to pull out a single wide-mouth barrel, this friction may cause multiple wide-mouth barrels to be pulled out in a series, making it impossible to achieve accurate individual separation, which in turn affects subsequent processing operations. Therefore, to address the above problem, an automatic barrel separating device suitable for multiple barrel types is proposed. Utility Model Content

[0033] As a further implementation of this solution, an electric telescopic rod 2 and a limiting telescopic rod 3 are fixedly connected to the bottom of the linear motor 1. The bottom of the limiting telescopic rod 3 is fixedly connected to the top of the arch frame 51. A bracket 4 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the linear motor 1. A conveyor line 9 is placed at the bottom of the linear motor 1. A wide-mouth barrel 8 is placed at the bottom of the pressing and moving component 5. Through the above settings, the stability of the device and the accuracy of operation are ensured, so that precise control of a single barrel can be achieved when separating the wide-mouth barrel 8, avoiding the situation where multiple barrels are carried out at the same time, improving the separation efficiency and the smoothness of the production line.
[0034] As a further implementation of this solution, the inner side of the movable plate 55 is provided with threaded holes and straight holes. A double threaded rod 53 is spirally connected to the inner side of the movable plate 55, and a guide rod 54 is slidably connected to the inner side of the movable plate 55. The double threaded rod 53 is rotatably connected to the arch frame 51 through bearings. The left and right ends of the guide rod 54 are fixedly connected to the arch frame 51. The left side of the double threaded rod 53 is fixedly connected to the end of the main shaft of the servo motor 52.

Through the above settings, the design of the threaded holes and straight holes, and the rotatable connection of the bearings, this structure provides flexible adjustment and stable fixation, enabling the device to adapt to wide-mouth barrels 8 of different specifications, enhancing the flexibility and safety of operation.
[0035] As a further implementation of this solution, the inner side of the spring 64 is fixedly connected to the outer side of the built-in column 65, the first baffle 63 is set at the right end of the second baffle 66, the first baffle 63 and the second baffle 66 are in contact, the inclined plate 67 is an inclined structure, and the base 61 is fixedly connected to the moving plate 55. Through the above settings, the inclined plate 67 with its inclined structure and the fixedly connected base 61 and moving plate 55, this design helps to effectively clamp and protect the wide-mouth barrel 8 during the separation process, prevent the barrel from being damaged during operation, and extend its service life.
[0036] As a further implementation of this solution, the clamping roller assembly 7 includes a fixed column 71, a ratchet assembly 72 mounted on the outside of the fixed column 71, a metal cylinder 73 fixedly connected to the outside of the ratchet assembly 72, and an arc-shaped rubber cylinder 74 fixedly connected to the outside of the metal cylinder 73. Through the above arrangement, this multi-layer structure design enhances the clamping force and friction of the device, enabling it to provide sufficient adaptability and protection when separating wide-mouth barrels 8 of different diameters, and ensuring the smooth progress of the separation process.
[0037] As a further implementation of this scheme, the front and rear ends of the fixed column 71 are fixedly connected to the inclined plate 67, and the surface of the arc-shaped rubber cylinder 74 has an arc-shaped structure. Through the above settings, this design helps to better fit the shape of the wide-mouth barrel 8 during the separation process, improve friction and clamping force, and ensure the accuracy of separation and the integrity of the barrel.
[0038] Workflow: To separate the interlocked wide-mouth barrels 8, the linear motor 1 is activated to move the electric telescopic rod 2 and the limiting telescopic rod 3. After moving a specified distance, the center between the two pressure plates 57 is aligned with the wide-mouth barrel 8, with a gap between them. The electric telescopic rod 2 is then activated to move the pressing and moving assembly 5 downwards. The pressing and moving assembly 5 causes multiple limiting telescopic rods 3 to extend. The limiting telescopic rods 3 reduce the shear force between the electric telescopic rod 2 and the pressing and moving assembly 5. When the pressure plate 57 moves to the bottom of the wide-mouth barrel 8 at the top, the arc-shaped rubber cylinder 74 is aligned with the barrel body of the wide-mouth barrel 8. The servo motor 52 is then activated to rotate the double threaded rod 53. The double threaded rod 53 causes the two moving plates 55 to move simultaneously towards each other. As the barrel moves closer, the movable plate 55 slides on the outside of the guide rod 54, acting as a limit. The movable plate 55 drives the clamping assembly 6 and the clamping roller assembly 7 to move closer to the wide-mouth barrel 8. First, the arc-shaped rubber cylinder 74 comes into contact with the barrel body of the wide-mouth barrel 8. Under the action of the reaction force, the clamping roller assembly 7 drives the inclined plate 67 to rotate around the axis of the built-in column 65. The built-in column 65 is rotatably connected to the inside of the shaft rotation hole 62 through a bearing. The built-in column 65 drives the second baffle 66 to move away from the first baffle 63. The setting of the second baffle 66 and the first baffle 63 can prevent the inclined plate 67 from rotating excessively. Thus, the inclined plate 67 remains in an inclined state before the arc-shaped rubber cylinder 74 contacts the wide-mouth barrel 8. In order to be suitable for clamping wide-mouth barrels 8 of different diameters, the built-in... The column 65 drives the spring 64 to twist. Under the torque of the spring 64, the friction between the arc-shaped rubber cylinder 74 and the wide-mouth barrel 8 is increased. The arc-shaped rubber cylinder 74 is made of rubber. In order to protect the wide-mouth barrel 8 and increase the friction between it and the wide-mouth barrel 8, when the pressure plate 57 is aligned with the bottom end of the uppermost wide-mouth barrel 8, to prevent the pressure plate 57 from releasing the other wide-mouth barrel 8, the electric telescopic rod 2 is activated, which drives the entire pressing and moving assembly 5 to move downward. Since the pressure plate 57 is between the barrel collars of the two barrels, the elastic force of the spring telescopic rod 56 makes the pressure plate 57 press against the barrel collar of the other wide-mouth barrel 8. At the same time, the inclined plate 67 will drive the internal column 65 to rotate at a moving angle. The arc-shaped rubber cylinder 74 drives the metal cylinder 73 to rotate. In the ratchet assembly 7 Under the limiting action of 2, the arc-shaped rubber cylinder 74 and the metal cylinder 73 can only rotate in one direction. When the arc-shaped rubber cylinder 74 moves downward a certain distance, the electric telescopic rod 2 is activated, driving the pressing and moving assembly 5, the clamping assembly 6, and the clamping roller assembly 7 to move upward as a whole. Through the clamping force of the arc-shaped rubber cylinder 74 on the wide-mouth barrel 8, and the force of the spring telescopic rod 56 pushing the pressure plate 57 downward, the uppermost wide-mouth barrel 8 moves back, while the other wide-mouth barrel 8 will not move due to the pressure of the pressure plate 57, thus achieving the effect of separating the wide-mouth barrels 8. With the cooperation of the linear motor 1 and the electric telescopic rod 2, the wide-mouth barrel 8 is placed on the conveyor line 9 for conveying, providing convenience for the processing of the wide-mouth barrel 8. Based on the above principles, when the device separates the wide-mouth barrels 8 that are inserted together,This prevents multiple wide-mouth barrels from separating simultaneously, enabling precise individual separation and facilitating subsequent processing operations.
