Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of bottle cap processing technology, and in particular to an adsorption, flipping and pushing mechanism for bottle caps. Background Technology

[0002] The main functions of adding a gasket to a bottle cap are as follows: 1) As an additional sealing layer between the cap and the bottle opening, the gasket effectively prevents liquid leakage. Whether it's preventing gas escape from carbonated beverages or preventing oxidation and spoilage of alcoholic beverages and sauces, the gasket provides a tighter seal, ensuring the freshness and integrity of the product. 2) For some pressurized carbonated beverages, the gasket increases the cap's pressure resistance, reducing the risk of the cap popping out or the bottle breaking due to excessive internal pressure, thus improving consumer safety. 3) Gaskets are usually made of food-grade materials, effectively preventing external dust, microorganisms, and other contaminants from entering the bottle, protecting the liquid inside from external environmental interference, and meeting food safety and hygiene standards. 4) Good sealing performance means that consumers can experience the expected carbonated bubbles, aroma, or other special flavors when opening the bottle, unaffected by leaks, enhancing the sensory enjoyment of the product. At the same time, the gasket also reduces the embarrassment caused by a poor seal leading to difficulty in opening the cap or leakage, improving user satisfaction. 5) Adaptable to different bottle neck specifications: The gasket design has a certain degree of flexibility and adaptability, and can be customized according to different bottle neck sizes and shapes, ensuring sealing effect while facilitating standardized production and installation, thus improving production efficiency.

[0003] In the process of adding gaskets to bottle caps, an adsorption flipping and pushing mechanism is used to flip the bottle caps so that the opening faces the same direction and push them to the gasket adding station.

[0004] The existing bottle cap adsorption and flipping mechanism has several shortcomings. First, it can only adsorb and flip single bottle caps, not batch adsorption and flipping, resulting in low adsorption and flipping efficiency. Second, if local adsorption failure occurs due to material shortage during batch adsorption, it will affect the overall adsorption effect, thus leading to poor applicability of the mechanism. Therefore, it is necessary to optimize and improve the existing bottle cap adsorption and flipping mechanism. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the aforementioned problems in traditional technologies and provide an adsorption, flipping, and pushing mechanism for bottle caps.

[0006] To achieve the above-mentioned technical objectives and effects, this utility model is implemented through the following technical solution:

[0007] A bottle cap adsorption flipping and pushing mechanism includes a flipping and pushing component and an adsorption component;

[0008] The flipping and pushing assembly includes a base plate, a vertical push rod, a straightening tube, a grooved plate, a horizontal push rod, a rotary joint, a pushing rod, a flipping motor, and a belt drive. The base plate is connected to the grooved plate via the vertical push rod and the straightening tube. The horizontal push rod and the flipping motor are installed in the grooved plate. The movable end of the horizontal push rod is connected to the inner end of the pushing rod via the rotary joint. The flipping motor drives the pushing rod to flip around its own axis via the belt drive.

[0009] The adsorption assembly includes a negative pressure box, a vacuum pump, and adsorption heads. The side end of the negative pressure box is fixed to the outer end of the push rod. A vacuum pump is installed on one side of the negative pressure box, and several adsorption heads for adsorbing bottle cap materials are installed on the other side of the negative pressure box. The vacuum pump and the adsorption heads are respectively connected to the negative pressure chamber of the negative pressure box.

[0010] Furthermore, in the above-mentioned bottle cap adsorption flipping and pushing mechanism, the cross-section of the pushing rod is a polygonal structure.

[0011] Furthermore, in the above-mentioned bottle cap adsorption flipping and pushing mechanism, the belt drive component consists of a driving pulley, a driven pulley, and a transmission belt sleeved between them. The driving pulley and the driven pulley are provided with movable support by the side plate of the grooved plate. The driving pulley is installed at the output end of the flipping motor, and the driven pulley is sleeved on the outside of the push rod. The driven pulley has a polygonal through hole that cooperates with the push rod.

[0012] Furthermore, in the above-mentioned bottle cap adsorption flipping and pushing mechanism, the outer sides of the driving pulley and the driven pulley are evenly distributed with anti-slip protrusions, and the inner side of the transmission belt is evenly distributed with a number of tooth grooves that cooperate with the anti-slip protrusions.

[0013] Furthermore, in the above-mentioned bottle cap adsorption flipping and pushing mechanism, the adsorption head includes an adsorption head body, a spring, and a slide cylinder;

[0014] The adsorption head body has an adsorption channel inside, which is divided into a first cavity, a second cavity, a third cavity, a fourth cavity and a fifth cavity from top to bottom. The diameter of the second cavity is larger than the diameter of the first cavity and the third cavity. The diameters of the third cavity, the fourth cavity and the fifth cavity gradually increase. The diameter of the fifth cavity matches the outer diameter of the bottle cap material.

[0015] The slide tube is composed of a cylindrical part and an end plate located at its opening. The side end of the cylindrical part is provided with a plurality of air guide holes along the circumferential direction near the closed end. The end plate is disposed in the second groove cavity, and a spring is connected between the outer end face of the end plate and the top face of the second groove cavity. The sliding of the cylindrical part is restricted in the third groove cavity. The distance between the air guide holes and the end plate is less than the depth of the third groove cavity. The depth of the third groove cavity and the fourth groove cavity is greater than the axial length of the slide tube as a whole.

[0016] Furthermore, in the aforementioned bottle cap adsorption and flipping pushing mechanism, when the fifth cavity is blocked by the bottle cap material, the slide cylinder moves downward under the support of the spring, so that its air guide hole connects with the fourth cavity, and the bottle cap material is adsorbed by negative pressure; when the fifth cavity is not blocked by the bottle cap material due to lack of material, the air pressure in the second cavity is lower than that in the fourth cavity, and the slide cylinder can overcome the support of the spring and move upward under the action of pressure difference. At this time, the air guide hole enters the third cavity and is blocked, and the fourth cavity and the upper cavity are independently closed.

[0017] Furthermore, in the above-mentioned bottle cap adsorption flipping and pushing mechanism, the adsorption component is located above the feeding component. The feeding component includes a circulating conveyor belt and several positioning protrusions thereon. The positioning protrusions can fit and install the bottle cap material in a tight snap-fit ​​manner.

[0018] Furthermore, in the above-mentioned bottle cap adsorption flipping and pushing mechanism, the adsorption force between the adsorption head and the bottle cap material in the adsorption assembly is greater than the frictional resistance between the positioning protrusion and the bottle cap material.

[0019] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0020] This utility model has a reasonable mechanism design, mainly consisting of a flipping and pushing component and an adsorption component. The flipping and pushing component can drive the adsorption component to perform flipping and pushing displacement actions. The adsorption component can adsorb bottle cap materials fed by the feeding component in batches, with high adsorption reliability. When the adsorption head of the adsorption component cannot adsorb bottle cap materials due to a partial material shortage in the feeding component, the adsorption head itself can close the adsorption channel, thereby ensuring the overall adsorption reliability of the adsorption component and making it highly applicable.

[0021] Of course, any product implementing this utility model does not necessarily need to achieve all of the above advantages at the same time. Attached Figure Description

[0036] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0037] like Figures 1-8 As shown, this embodiment provides an adsorption flipping and pushing mechanism for a bottle cap, including a flipping and pushing component 1 and an adsorption component 2.

[0038] In this embodiment, the flipping and pushing assembly 1 includes a base plate 101, a vertical push rod 102, a straightening joint tube 103, a grooved plate 104, a horizontal push rod 105, a rotary joint 106, a pushing rod 107, a flipping motor 108, and a belt drive component 109. The base plate 101 is connected to the grooved plate 104 via the vertical push rod 102 and the straightening joint tube 103. The horizontal push rod 105 and the flipping motor 108 are installed in the grooved plate 104. The movable end of the horizontal push rod 105 is connected to the inner end of the pushing rod 107 via the rotary joint 106. The flipping motor 108 drives the pushing rod 107 to flip around its own axis via the belt drive component 109.

[0039] In this embodiment, the cross-section of the push rod 107 is a polygonal structure, such as a quadrilateral, hexagon, or octagon.

[0040] In this embodiment, the belt drive component 109 consists of a driving pulley, a driven pulley, and a drive belt sleeved between them. The driving pulley and the driven pulley are movably supported by the side plates of the grooved plate 104. The driving pulley is mounted on the output end of the flip motor 108, and the driven pulley is sleeved on the outside of the push rod 107. The driven pulley has polygonal through holes that mate with the push rod 107. Anti-slip protrusions are evenly distributed on the outer sides of the driving pulley and the driven pulley, and several tooth grooves that mate with the anti-slip protrusions are evenly distributed on the inner side of the drive belt.

[0041] In this embodiment, the adsorption assembly 2 includes a negative pressure box 21, a vacuum pump 22, and an adsorption head 23. The side end of the negative pressure box 21 is fixed to the outer end of the push rod 107. A vacuum pump 22 is installed on one side of the negative pressure box 21, and a plurality of adsorption heads 23 for adsorbing bottle cap material 4 are installed on the other side of the negative pressure box 21. The vacuum pump 22 and the adsorption heads 23 are respectively connected to the negative pressure chamber of the negative pressure box 21.

[0042] In this embodiment, the adsorption head 23 includes an adsorption head body 231, a spring 232, and a slide cylinder 233.

[0043] The adsorption head body 231 has an adsorption channel inside, which is divided into a first cavity 231a, a second cavity 231b, a third cavity 231c, a fourth cavity 231d, and a fifth cavity 231e from top to bottom. The diameter of the second cavity 231b is larger than the diameters of the first cavity 231a and the third cavity 231c. The diameters of the third cavity 231c, the fourth cavity 231d, and the fifth cavity 231e gradually increase. The diameter of the fifth cavity 231e matches the outer diameter of the bottle cap material 4.

[0044] The sliding cylinder 233 consists of a cylindrical portion 233a and an end plate 233b located at its opening. Several air guide holes 233c are circumferentially opened on the side end of the cylindrical portion 233a near its closed end. The end plate 233b is disposed in the second cavity 231b, and a spring 232 connects the outer end face of the end plate 233b to the top face of the second cavity 231b. The sliding of the cylindrical portion 233a is restricted within the third cavity 231c. The distance between the air guide holes 233c and the end plate 233b is less than the depth of the third cavity 231c. The combined depth of the third cavity 231c and the fourth cavity 231d is greater than the overall axial length of the sliding cylinder 233.

[0045] When the fifth cavity 231e is blocked by the bottle cap material 4, the slide cylinder 233 moves downward under the support of the spring 232, so that its air guide hole 233c is connected to the fourth cavity 231d, and the bottle cap material 4 is adsorbed by negative pressure. When the fifth cavity 231e is not blocked by the bottle cap material due to lack of material, the air pressure of the second cavity 231b is lower than the air pressure of the fourth cavity 231d. Under the action of pressure difference, the slide cylinder 233 can overcome the support of the spring and move upward. At this time, the air guide hole 233c enters the third cavity 231c and is blocked, and the fourth cavity 231d is independently closed with the upper cavity.

[0046] In this embodiment, the adsorption component 2 is positioned above the feeding component 3. The feeding component 3 includes a circulating conveyor belt 301 and a plurality of positioning protrusions 302 disposed thereon. The positioning protrusions 302 can be fitted and installed with the bottle cap material 4 by a tight snap-fit ​​method.

[0047] In this embodiment, the adsorption force between the adsorption head 23 and the bottle cap material 4 in the adsorption assembly 2 is greater than the frictional resistance between the positioning protrusion 302 and the bottle cap material 4.

[0048] One specific application of this embodiment is as follows: This mechanism is mainly composed of a flipping and pushing component 1 and an adsorption component 2. The flipping and pushing component 2 can drive the adsorption component 2 to perform flipping and pushing displacement actions. The adsorption component 2 can adsorb bottle cap materials 4 delivered by the feeding component 3 in batches. The adsorption reliability is high. When the adsorption head 23 of the adsorption component 2 cannot adsorb bottle cap materials 4 due to a partial shortage of material in the feeding component 3, the adsorption head 23 can close the adsorption channel itself, thereby ensuring the overall adsorption reliability of the adsorption component 2. It has strong applicability.
