Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of bottle cap processing, and in particular relates to a conveying device for bottle cap processing. Background Technology

[0002] In the bottle cap manufacturing industry, efficient conveying devices are one of the key factors in ensuring smooth production processes and improving production efficiency. The bottle cap production process involves multiple processing steps from raw materials to finished products, with conveying devices playing a crucial role in transporting bottle caps from one process to the next.

[0003] Existing conveying devices often experience bottle cap jamming due to stacking or misalignment within the feed channel, hindering precise parallel feeding across multiple channels and resulting in low conveying efficiency. When bottle caps become jammed in the feed channel, the cap plate needs to be removed and straightened. Since the cap plate is typically fixed to the feeding seat, removing it is time-consuming and labor-intensive, increasing the difficulty of straightening. Summary of the Invention

[0004] In view of the above problems, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a conveying device for bottle cap processing, which aims to solve the problem of low conveying efficiency of existing conveying devices for bottle cap processing.

[0005] The present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0006] The conveying device includes a vertical frame with an inclined downward-facing loading seat. A cover plate and a fixed seat are respectively located at the top and bottom of the loading seat. A baffle mechanism is provided on the loading seat, and a rotatable receiving seat is located below the loading seat. A row of guide plates is provided inside the loading seat, with two adjacent guide plates forming a guide channel. A receiving groove is opened below each guide channel on the receiving seat, and a shallow groove is opened in the receiving groove. An L-shaped baffle is provided forward-facing in the shallow groove. A short groove is opened in each guide channel. The baffle mechanism includes a pair of left and right baffle components. Each baffle component includes a baffle cylinder. A baffle plate is provided on the drive shaft of the baffle cylinder. A U-shaped block is formed at the upper end of the baffle plate corresponding to the short groove, and the front end of the baffle passes through the block.

[0007] Furthermore, the cover plate has a slot corresponding to each material guide channel below it, and the fixed base is equipped with a sensor corresponding to each slot. The upright frame is equipped with an adjusting cylinder for driving the material receiving seat to rotate.

[0008] Furthermore, each guide plate is provided with a hanger, which consists of two parts, the lower part of which is thicker than the upper part. The cover plate has a matching oval groove corresponding to the upper part of each hanger.

[0009] Furthermore, the bottom surface of the fixed base has a guide notch corresponding to each guide channel.

[0010] Furthermore, the guide plates located on the left and right sides are longer than the other guide plates.

[0011] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: During the bottle cap feeding process, after the bottle cap enters the guide channel, when the current bottle cap is blocked by the stop block, the sensor detects this and the adjusting cylinder drives the receiving seat to rotate downwards, so that the receiving groove is aligned with the guide channel. At the same time, the front end of the stop bar rotates upwards, and the front end of the stop bar also passes through the short groove to form a stop, which is used to block the subsequent bottle cap. Finally, the blocking cylinder drives the blocking plate to move downwards a short distance, and the two sets of stop blocks move downwards and away from the short groove a short distance. After the current bottle cap slides to the corresponding position of the receiving groove, the bottle cap waits to be taken away. Attached Figure Description

[0017] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model patent 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 merely illustrative of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the scope of the present utility model.

[0018] To illustrate the technical solution described in this utility model, specific embodiments are described below.

[0019] For ease of explanation, only the parts relevant to the embodiments of this utility model are shown.

[0020] Combination Figure 1-3As shown, the conveying device includes a frame 1, which has a downward-sloping loading seat 2. The loading seat 2 has a cover plate 3 and a fixed seat 4 at its upper and lower positions, respectively. The loading seat has a baffle mechanism. The loading seat 2 has a rotatable receiving seat 5 below it. The loading seat 2 has a row of guide plates 6. Two adjacent guide plates 6 form a guide channel 7. The receiving seat 5 has a receiving groove 8 below each guide channel 7. The receiving groove 8 has a shallow groove. An L-shaped baffle 9 is provided in the shallow groove facing forward. Each guide channel 7 has a short groove 10. The baffle mechanism includes a pair of left and right baffle components. The baffle components include a baffle cylinder 11. The drive shaft of the baffle cylinder 11 has a baffle plate 12. The upper end of the baffle plate 12 forms a U-shaped block 13 corresponding to the short groove 10. The front end of the baffle 9 passes through the block 13.

[0021] In this embodiment, the upstream station of the device is equipped with a vibratory feeder, and the downstream station is equipped with a material handling mechanism. Bottle caps are placed inside the vibratory feeder, and the end of the vibratory feeder is connected to the upper end of the feeding seat.

[0022] Figure 1 In the middle, the cover plate 3 has a slot 15 below each material guide channel 7, and the fixed base 4 is equipped with a sensor 16 corresponding to each slot 15. The upright frame 1 is equipped with an adjusting cylinder 17 for driving the receiving base 5 to rotate.

[0023] Before the bottle cap enters the feeding seat, such as Figure 3-4 In this system, each stop block extends through a short groove directly above it to form a stop, and the front end of each stop bar is located below the short groove. During the bottle cap feeding process, after the bottle cap enters the guide channel, it is blocked by a stop block. The sensor detects this and transmits a signal to the control system. The control system then controls the adjusting cylinder to drive the receiving seat to rotate downwards, aligning the receiving groove with the guide channel. Simultaneously, the receiving seat also drives the front ends of all the stop bars to rotate upwards, with the front ends of the stop bars extending through the short groove to form a stop, thus blocking subsequent bottle caps. Finally, the blocking cylinder drives the blocking plate to move downwards a short distance, and both sets of stop blocks move downwards and away from the short groove a short distance. The current bottle cap slides to the corresponding position in the receiving groove and awaits removal.

[0024] After the current bottle cap is removed, the baffle cylinder drives the baffle plate to move upward, and the stop block re-enters the upper short groove to re-establish the stop position. Finally, the adjusting cylinder drives the receiving seat to move upward and reset. During this process, the stop bar moves downward and its front end moves away from the short groove, and the next bottle cap slides downward and is blocked by the stop block, waiting for feeding.

[0025] As a preferred structure, such as Figure 1 , Figure 3Each guide plate 6 is provided with a hanging seat 18, which consists of two parts, the lower part of the hanging seat 18 being thicker than the upper part. The cover plate 3 has a matching oval groove 19 corresponding to the upper part of each hanging seat 18.

[0026] In this structure, the cover plate is located above the feeding seat and can be used to limit the upward movement range of the bottle cap, preventing the bottle cap from jumping out of the guide channel during the conveying process. When the cover plate is installed on the feeding seat through each of the brackets, the lower part of the bracket supports the cover plate, and the upper part extends through and limits the corresponding oval groove. If the guide channel is blocked by bottle caps, the cover plate can be removed from the feeding seat for easy cleaning by the staff. When removing the cover plate, the staff only needs to hold the cover plate with both hands and move the cover plate upward a short distance along the inclined surface of the feeding seat. During this process, the upper part of the bracket slides within the oval groove. Finally, move the cover plate upward until the bracket is away from the oval groove, at which point the cover plate is removed. As can be seen, the entire disassembly process of the cover plate is relatively simple and quick.

[0027] In addition, such as Figure 5 The bottom surface of the fixing seat 4 has a guide notch 20 corresponding to each guide channel 7. By opening the guide notch 20 on the fixing seat, and the width of the guide notch is slightly larger than the diameter of the bottle cap, it is ensured that the bottle cap falls accurately into the receiving groove and avoids displacement.

[0028] Because the feeding seat 2 is equipped with a row of guide plates 6, two adjacent guide plates form a guide channel. At the same time, the guide plates on the left and right sides are designed to be longer than other guide plates to prevent bottle caps from falling off from the sides during the conveying process, thereby improving the stability and reliability of the conveying device.

[0029] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
