Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of blister packing machines, specifically to a debugging module for a packing machine and a packing machine. Background Technology

[0002] A cartoning machine is used to pack blister packs (such as those packaged by a blister packing machine) into cardboard boxes. It is often used in conjunction with upstream equipment such as aluminum-plastic packaging machines and aluminum-aluminum packaging machines to achieve the packaging requirements and effects for pharmaceuticals. A typical cartoning machine includes a chain-type continuous blister packing device, a blister conveyor, a carton forming device, a blister loading device, and a carton conveying device. The blister conveying device includes a blister magazine and blister conveying tracks.

[0003] Chinese utility model patent CN207670758U discloses a pusher plate device for a continuous cartoning machine. This pusher plate device includes an outer wall panel and an inner wall panel, eighteen pusher plate assemblies evenly distributed on a chain, and three sets of tracks located between the outer and inner wall panels. Each pusher plate assembly includes a guide rod, which is mounted on the chain via connecting plates at both ends. The chain is wound around a sprocket. However, in actual use, a pharmaceutical company's production workshop typically has multiple product registration numbers, and the production line needs to produce multiple varieties and specifications of products. This puts pressure and demands on equipment debugging and operation. Due to differences in product packaging specifications (from one to multiple blister packs), packaging materials (PVC / PVDC / cold aluminum, etc.), and ductility, the curvature of the blister packs varies after heat sealing with an aluminum-plastic / aluminum-aluminum machine. The diameter and thickness of the tablets also differ, resulting in significant differences in blister pack thickness. Therefore, there are substantial dimensional differences between different products when they are cartoned from upstream equipment to the cartoning machine.

[0004] To meet the production needs of multiple products, when switching from product A to product B, the cartoning machine's pusher assembly and blister pack need to be debugged. This debugging requires high precision; improper debugging will increase the cartoning machine's failure rate, thus affecting product quality and production efficiency. Currently, operators use blister packs for debugging. Due to the significant differences in blister packs and the need to debug one or more packs at a time, operators need to stack one or more blister packs together for debugging. This is difficult and inaccurate, causing frequent box squeezing by the cartoning machine. Equipment misalignment failures are difficult to repair, severely impacting production efficiency. Furthermore, it damages blister packs, tablets, instructions, and boxes, increasing production costs, affecting product yield, and posing certain quality and safety risks.

[0005] Therefore, a new technical solution is needed in this field to solve the above problems. Summary of the Invention

[0006] To improve or solve the technical problems of high difficulty and low accuracy in the debugging of the blister packing machine's pusher structure and blister magazine using existing technology, this utility model provides a debugging module for a blister packing machine. The debugging module includes: multiple debugging blocks adapted to match the blister packing size, and selectively and combinably arranged in the blister magazine and pusher structure; each debugging block has an identification mark and is coated with a ceramic coating.

[0007] This utility model includes a debugging module for a cartoning machine, comprising multiple debugging blocks, each with the same cartoning size as a product. These blocks can replace one or more blister packs during debugging of the pusher structure and blister pack, reducing debugging difficulty and improving accuracy. Multiple debugging blocks correspond to various products; when changing products in the cartoning machine, only the corresponding debugging block needs to be selected for precise debugging, reducing equipment failure rate and increasing product yield and production efficiency. The multiple debugging blocks can be arranged in combination within the blister pack and pusher structure. For products without pre-designed debugging blocks, their corresponding cartoning size can be determined by combining existing blocks, thus improving the applicability of the debugging module. Each debugging block is marked, facilitating worker identification of the corresponding product and the block's size. Each debugging block is coated with a ceramic layer, improving its wear resistance and preventing dimensional distortion. With the above settings, the debugging module of this utility model for the cartoning machine can replace one or more medicine plates for debugging when debugging the pushing structure and medicine plate library, reducing debugging difficulty, improving debugging accuracy, thereby reducing equipment failure rate, and improving product yield and production efficiency.

[0008] Furthermore, the debugging block has a first side and a second side opposite to each other, an embedding groove is formed on the first side, and a protrusion that matches the embedding groove is formed on the second side.

[0009] Furthermore, it also includes an adjustment block that forms a snap-fit ​​connection with the debugging block.

[0010] Furthermore, the debugging block has a third side surface on which a snap-fit ​​groove is formed; and the adjustment block is provided with a snap-fit ​​block that matches the snap-fit ​​groove.

[0011] Furthermore, a baffle is formed on one side of the snap-fit ​​groove, and a rubber pad is arranged inside the snap-fit ​​groove.

[0012] Furthermore, the material of the debugging block is aluminum alloy.

[0013] Furthermore, the marking is a laser-engraved marking or a laser-coded marking.

[0014] To improve or solve the technical problems of high difficulty and low accuracy in debugging the drug pushing structure and drug storage of the cartoning machine using blister packs in the existing technology, this utility model also provides a cartoning machine. The cartoning machine includes a drug pushing structure, comprising a frame, a track mounted on the frame, a chain mounted on the track, and a pusher connected to the chain, the pusher including a pressure plate and a pusher plate; and a debugging module for the cartoning machine as described in any of the above claims, wherein the debugging block of the debugging module for the cartoning machine is arranged between the pressure plate and the pusher plate.

[0015] Furthermore, the pusher also includes a push plate connecting bar connected to the push plate, and a spring is provided between the chain and the push plate connecting bar.

[0016] In summary, compared with the prior art, this utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0017] (1) Each debugging block is the same size as the carton of a product. It can replace one or more blister packs for debugging when the pusher structure and blister pack are being debugged, reducing the debugging difficulty and improving the debugging accuracy. Multiple debugging blocks correspond to multiple products. When changing products in the cartoning machine, only the corresponding debugging block needs to be selected for accurate debugging, reducing the equipment failure rate and improving the product yield and production efficiency.

[0018] (2) Multiple debugging blocks can be arranged in combination in the drug storage and drug pushing structure. For some products that have not been designed with debugging blocks, the corresponding box size can be obtained by combining the existing debugging blocks, thereby improving the applicability of the debugging module.

[0026] To improve or solve the technical problems of high difficulty and low accuracy in the debugging of the blister packing machine's pusher structure and blister pouch in the existing technology, this utility model provides a debugging module for a blister packing machine. The debugging module includes: multiple debugging blocks 1, adapted to match the blister packing size, and selectively and combinably arranged in the blister pouch and pusher structure 2; each debugging block 1 has an identification mark and is coated with a ceramic coating.

[0027] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of an embodiment of the debugging module of this utility model used in a cartoning machine. For example... Figure 1 As shown, in one or more embodiments, the debugging module of the present invention for a cartoning machine includes multiple debugging blocks 1, each debugging block 1 being matched with a blister packing size.

[0028] See also Figure 1In one or more embodiments, the adjustment block 1 is roughly rectangular in shape. For products of different thicknesses, shapes, and specifications, a standard blister pack with straight lines and normal, undeformed blister formation is selected. Based on the product packaging specifications, the width and overall thickness of the blister pack are measured for use in the cartoning machine, thus designing the corresponding adjustment block 1. It is understood that the thickness of the adjustment block 1 is the overall thickness of the carton, i.e., the thickness of one or more blister packs. When changing products in the cartoning machine, only the corresponding adjustment block 1 needs to be removed for precise adjustment, reducing equipment failure rate and improving product yield and production efficiency. Furthermore, an identification mark is formed on the adjustment block 1 to identify the product corresponding to it. Specifically, the mark is a laser-engraved mark or a laser-coded mark, indicating the product and specifications corresponding to the adjustment block 1. Furthermore, the adjustment block 1 is made of aluminum alloy; a rectangular plate-shaped aluminum alloy block is simple to produce, has low manufacturing cost, and is highly portable. Furthermore, each adjustment block 1 is coated with a ceramic coating to enhance its wear resistance and prevent dimensional distortion.

[0029] See also Figure 1 In one or more embodiments, multiple debugging blocks 1 can be arranged in combination. Specifically, the debugging block 1 has opposing first and second sides, with an embedding groove formed on the first side and a protrusion 11 matching the embedding groove formed on the second side. Both the embedding groove and the protrusion 11 are arranged circumferentially along the debugging block 1. Adjacent debugging blocks 1 are stacked vertically to form a debugging block 1 with the required thickness, thereby improving the applicability of the debugging module. It is understood that the thickness of the debugging block 1 refers to the distance from the top of the protrusion 11 to the first side. Further, the debugging module also includes an adjustment block 12 that forms a snap-fit ​​connection with the debugging block 1. The adjustment block 12 is snap-fitted onto the side of the debugging block 1 to adjust the length and width of the debugging block 1. Specifically, the debugging block 1 has a third side with a snap-fit ​​groove 13, and a snap-fit ​​block 14 matching the snap-fit ​​groove 13 is provided on the adjustment block 12. The adjustment block 12 is generally rectangular in shape, and multiple adjustment blocks 12 are provided, with different specifications and dimensions. The snap-fit ​​block 14 is approximately T-shaped and is arranged on one side of the adjusting block 12. Furthermore, a baffle 15 is formed at one end of the snap-fit ​​groove 13 to position the snap-fit ​​block 14 and prevent the adjusting block 12 from protruding from the adjusting block 1. Furthermore, a rubber pad is arranged inside the snap-fit ​​groove 13 to increase the friction between the snap-fit ​​block 14 and the adjusting block 1, preventing the adjusting block 12 from easily detaching from the adjusting block 1. Furthermore, the third side consists of two adjacent sides, and the snap-fit ​​grooves 13 on the two sides are connected, thereby allowing the adjusting block 12 to be added in both length and width for adjustment of the adjusting block 1.

[0030] To improve or solve the technical problems of high difficulty and low accuracy in debugging the drug pushing structure and drug storage of the cartoning machine using blister packs in the existing technology, this utility model provides a cartoning machine. The cartoning machine includes: a drug pushing structure 2, including a frame 21, a track 22 mounted on the frame 21, a chain 23 mounted on the track 22, and a pusher 24 connected to the chain 23, the pusher 24 including a pressure plate 245 and a pusher plate 244; and a debugging module for the cartoning machine, wherein the debugging block 1 of the debugging module is arranged between the pressure plate 245 and the pusher plate 244.

[0031] Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of an embodiment of the drug-pushing structure in the cartoning machine of this utility model. Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the cartoning machine of this utility model includes a frame 21, a track 22, a chain 23, and a pusher 24. Specifically, the frame 21 is adapted to be installed on one side of the plate conveying device. The track 22 is fixedly connected to the frame 21. The chain 23 is rotatably installed on the frame 21. The pusher 24 includes a guide rod 241 connected to the chain 23, a pusher slider 242 and a pressure slider 243 slidably installed on the guide rod 241, a pusher 244 connected to the pusher slider 242, and a pressure plate 245 installed on the pressure slider 243. The adjustment block 1 is arranged in the blister pack of the plate conveying device, and moves with the blister conveyor belt after flowing out of the blister pack; the pressure plate 245 and the pusher 244 extend into the blister conveyor belt, limiting the adjustment block 1 between the pressure plate 245 and the pusher 244, and pushing the adjustment block 1 into the medicine box on one side to complete the adjustment. A push plate connecting strip 246 is provided between the push plate slider 242 and the push plate 244. The above-mentioned push structure 2 can be an existing push plate structure, which will not be described in detail here. Furthermore, the guide rod 241 is connected to the chain 23 through the connecting plate, and a spring 247 is provided between the push plate connecting strip 246 and the connecting plate to assist the push plate 244 in resetting.
