[0016] (III) Beneficial Effects
[0017] This invention provides a negative pressure adaptive device for bottle cap sealing performance testing. It has the following beneficial effects:
[0018] 1. The clamping mechanism can clamp bottle caps of different sizes. The servo motor's output drives a bidirectional lead screw to rotate, which in turn moves two symmetrical cross sliders towards each other, positioning the bottle cap with its opening facing upwards on one side of the two semi-circular clamping plates. As the two cross sliders move, they drive their corresponding semi-circular plates towards each other, clamping the bottle cap. The first spring and the limiting ring prevent the two semi-circular clamping plates from damaging the bottle cap. The movement of the two cross sliders allows for clamping bottle caps of different sizes, accommodating a wider range of bottle cap sealing tests.
[0019] 2. Through the action of the plug-in mechanism, the sealing disc with weakened airtightness after long-term use can be quickly replaced.

[0028] The technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present invention.
[0029] Example 1
[0030] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 This is the first embodiment of the present invention. This embodiment provides a negative pressure adaptive device for bottle cap sealing test, including a workbench 1, a clamping mechanism 2 is provided inside the workbench 1, and a plugging mechanism 3 is provided on the top of the clamping mechanism 2.
[0031] The clamping mechanism 2 includes a bidirectional lead screw 210 disposed inside the worktable 1. A cross slider 202 is symmetrically installed on the outside of the bidirectional lead screw 210 through a threaded sleeve. A semi-circular plate 203 is fixedly connected to the top of the cross slider 202. A fixing block 209 is symmetrically disposed on the top of the semi-circular plate 203. A limit pin 206 is movably installed inside the fixing block 209. A limit ring 207 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the limit pin 206. A first spring 208 is disposed on the side of the limit ring 207 opposite to the fixing block 209. A semi-circular clamping plate 205 is fixedly connected to one side of the limit pin 206.
[0032] Specifically, the cup lid is placed on top of the semicircular plate 203. When the two cross sliders 202 are simultaneously driven to move in opposite directions by the bidirectional lead screw 210, the bottle lid is clamped by the two semicircular clamping plates 205. At this time, the semicircular clamping plates 205 push the two corresponding limiting pins 206 outward in the fixing block 209 to clamp the bottle lid. With the cooperation of the limiting ring 207 and the first spring 208, bottle lids of different diameters can be clamped.
[0033] Specifically, a cross slide groove adapted to the cross slider 202 is provided on one side of the workbench 1. Both cross sliders 202 are slidably connected in the slide groove. A limit plate 204 is fixedly installed at the center of the slide groove. Under the action of the limit plate 204, the middle position of the bidirectional lead screw 210 will not bend when it rotates, and the two cross sliders 202 will also be prevented from colliding.
[0034] Specifically, the bidirectional lead screw 210 is rotatably connected inside the worktable 1 via a bearing. One end of the bidirectional lead screw 210 extends to the outside of the worktable 1 and is fixedly mounted with a servo motor 201. The operation of the servo motor 201 is controlled, and the output end of the servo motor 201 drives the bidirectional lead screw 210 to rotate in the worktable 1, which has the function of providing power to the two cross sliders 202.
[0035] Specifically, the first spring 208 is located outside the limiting pin 206. Both limiting pins 206 are fixedly installed on one side of the semi-circular clamping plate 205. The semi-circular clamping plate 205 is slidably connected to the top of the semi-circular plate 203. Through the action of the first spring 208, an inward pushing force is applied to the limiting ring 207. After the two semi-circular clamping plates 205 clamp the bottle cap, under the action of the corresponding first spring 208, the movement of the semi-circular plate 203 is prevented from damaging the bottle cap, thus protecting the bottle cap from damage.
[0036] Furthermore, the operation of the servo motor 201 is controlled. The output end of the servo motor 201 drives the bidirectional lead screw 210 to rotate in the worktable 1. The bidirectional lead screw 210 drives the two cross sliders 202 to move simultaneously in the worktable 1 towards the limiting plate 204. Each cross slider 202 drives the corresponding semi-circular plate 203 at its top to move. The semi-circular plate 203 drives the corresponding semi-circular clamping plate 205 at its top to move. The bottle cap opening is placed upward on one side of the two semi-circular clamping plates 205. Under the action of the two semi-circular clamping plates 205, the bottle cap opening is clamped upward.
[0037] Example 2
[0038] Reference Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 This is the second embodiment of the present invention, which is based on the previous embodiment and facilitates the replacement of the insertion mechanism 3 of the sealing disc 303.
[0039] The insertion mechanism 3 includes a cylinder 301 fixedly installed on the top of the inner surface of the workbench 1. A female insertion block 304 is fixedly provided at the output end of the cylinder 301. A male insertion block 305 is movably inserted into the female insertion block 304. A sealing plate 303 is fixedly provided at the bottom of the male insertion block 305. A telescopic tube 302 is provided at the top of the sealing plate 303.
[0040] Specifically, the male connector 305 is inserted into the female connector 304, and the operation of the cylinder 301 is controlled. The output end of the cylinder 301 pushes the sealing disc 303 downward, so that the sealing disc 303 completely covers the top of the bottle cap with the opening facing upward, and performs a negative pressure test to check the sealing performance.
[0041] Specifically, the female connector 304 has a locking pin 306 inside, a pull rod 308 is fixedly installed on one side of the locking pin 306, and a second spring 307 is provided on one side of the locking pin 306. Under the action of the second spring 307, a pushing force is applied to the locking pin 306 in the direction of the male connector 305, and the locking pin 306 always remains in the opposite direction to the male connector 305.
[0042] Specifically, a groove adapted to the locking pin 306 is provided on one side of the inner surface of the female plug block 304. The locking pin 306 is slidably connected inside the groove. A slot adapted to the locking pin 306 is provided on one side of the male plug block 305. The locking pin 306 is movably engaged in the groove. By engaging the locking pin 306 into the slot of the male plug block 305, the sealing disc 303 is fixed to the top of the female plug block 304. By pulling the locking pin 306 out of the groove of the male plug block 305, the sealing disc 303 can be removed from the bottom of the female plug block 304.
[0043] Furthermore, manually pull the lever 308 outward. The lever 308 causes the locking pin 306 to move out of the slot of the male connector 305. After removing the sealing disc 303 from the bottom of the female connector 304, place the airtight sealing disc 303 on top of the female connector 304. The sealing disc 303 will insert the male connector 305 into the female connector 304. At this time, the locking pin 306 will be engaged in the slot of the male connector 305. Under the action of the second spring 307, the locking pin 306 will be stably engaged in the male connector 305.
[0044] Working principle: A negative pressure air pump is installed in the inner cavity at the top of the workbench 1 and is connected to the telescopic tube 302. The negative pressure air pump is the same as that disclosed in the prior art. When the bottle cap is placed with the opening facing upwards on one side of the two semi-circular clamping plates 205, the operation of the servo motor 201 is controlled. The output end of the servo motor 201 drives the bidirectional lead screw 210 to rotate in the workbench 1. The bidirectional lead screw 210 drives the two cross sliders 202 to move simultaneously towards the limiting plate 204. The cross sliders 202 drive the corresponding semi-circular plates 202 at their tops. 3. Movement: As the two semicircular plates 203 move, they drive the semicircular clamping plates 205 at their tops to move towards each other. After the semicircular clamping plates 205 contact the bottle cap, the two semicircular clamping plates 205 are pushed outwards. The semicircular clamping plates 205 push the two limiting pins 206 outwards. The limiting pins 206 drive the corresponding limiting rings 207 to move, compressing and deforming the corresponding first springs 208. At the same time as the first springs 208 are compressed, the first springs 208 apply a reverse thrust to the limiting rings 207, causing the semicircular clamping plates 203 to move towards each other. 05. Securely clamp the bottle cap to the outside. Once the cap is clamped with the opening facing upwards, control the operation of cylinder 301. The output end of cylinder 301 pushes the female connector 304 downwards. The female connector 304 presses down on the sealing disc 303 and makes it completely adhere to the bottle cap. Control the operation of the negative pressure air pump in workbench 1. With the assistance of telescopic tube 302, a negative pressure test is performed on the bottle cap. The relevant test data can be obtained through the switch and display screen on one side of workbench 1. Prolonged friction between the sealing disc 303 and the bottle cap will reduce its airtightness. Manually pull the lever 308. The lever 308 moves the locking pin 306 outward, causing the locking pin 306 to disengage from the slot of the male connector 305. Pull the male connector 305 downward from the female connector 304, thereby removing the sealing disc 303 and replacing it with a new one. Insert the male connector 305 into the female connector 304, causing the locking pin 306 to lock into the slot of the male connector 305. Under the action of the second spring 307, the locking pin 306 is pushed into the male connector 305. The male connector 305 can then be replaced.
