Detailed Implementation

[0025] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. 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 of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0026] Example 1

[0027] refer to Figures 1-4 A bottle capping device includes a frame 1, a conveyor belt 2 mounted on the frame 1, and a capping unit 3; the capping unit 3 includes a frame body 31, a pressing mechanism 32, and a conveyor belt 33; the frame body 31 is mounted on the frame 1; the pressing mechanism 32 is mounted on the frame body 31.

[0028] The conveyor belt 33 is arranged directly above the conveyor belt 2, and a conveying channel for bottle a to pass through is formed between the two; along the conveying direction of the conveyor belt 2, the front end of the conveyor belt 33 is hinged to the frame 31, and the rear end of the conveyor belt 33 is connected to the output end of the pressing mechanism 32.

[0029] The conveyor belt 33 is arranged at an angle. In the initial state, the distance between the front end of the conveyor belt 33 and the working surface of the conveyor belt 2 is smaller than the distance between the rear end of the conveyor belt 33 and the working surface of the conveyor belt 2.

[0030] In actual operation, the automatic feeder of the front-end peripherals places the bottle stopper at the mouth of bottle a, and then the conveyor belt 2 conveys bottle a to the capping unit 3. The rear end of the conveyor belt 33 begins to contact the bottle stopper. As bottle a moves along the conveying direction of the conveyor belt 2, the distance between the conveyor belt 33 and the conveyor belt 2 gradually decreases. At the same time, the pressing mechanism 32 maintains a certain downward pressure, thereby gradually pressing the bottle stopper into bottle a to complete the capping.

[0031] This embodiment not only achieves capping without human contact, improving the product's installation coefficient, but also improves capping efficiency; in addition, this embodiment can also use the pressing mechanism 32 to adjust the relative position of the front end of the conveyor belt 33 and the conveyor belt 2 in the initial state, thereby adjusting the pressing amplitude.

[0032] In this embodiment, preferably, the capping unit 3 further includes two limiting frames 34; the two limiting frames 34 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the conveyor belt 33, and a gap is formed between the two limiting frames 34 to allow the neck of the bottle a to pass through. The above design is designed to suit the characteristics of perfume bottles, and its advantage is that the limiting frames 34 on both sides can prevent the bottle a from tipping over during the capping process.

[0033] Furthermore, in this embodiment, in order to ensure that bottle a can be transported smoothly and to prevent it from tipping over due to the speed difference between the upper and lower ends of bottle a, the conveyor belt 2 and the conveyor belt 33 have the same conveying speed.

[0034] In this embodiment, preferably, the frame 1 is provided with a lifting mechanism 11; the frame body 31 is disposed on the lifting mechanism 11.

[0035] More preferably, the lifting mechanism 11 includes a first ball screw assembly 111, a second ball screw assembly 112, a steering box 113, and a first drive motor 114, all mounted on the frame 1. The first ball screw assembly 111 and the second ball screw assembly 112 are respectively connected to one side of the frame 31. The first ball screw assembly 111 and the second ball screw assembly 112 are connected via the steering box 113 and rotate synchronously. The first drive motor 114 is connected via the steering box 113. It should be noted that the above-mentioned lifting mechanism 11 is actually a screw jack, a commonly used technical means by those skilled in the art, and therefore its specific structure is not described in detail. Of course, other commonly used lifting mechanical structures adopted by those skilled in the art based on this embodiment should also be within the protection scope of this embodiment.

[0036] Under the above-mentioned preferred conditions, the lifting mechanism 11 can drive the frame 31 to rise and fall, that is, drive the entire capping unit 3 to rise and fall, and adjust the distance between the conveyor belt 33 and the conveyor belt 2, thereby adapting to bottles a of different heights.

[0037] In this embodiment, specifically, the pressing mechanism 32 is a cylinder, the body of which is mounted on the frame 31, and the output end of the cylinder is connected to the rear end of the conveyor belt 33. More specifically, the conveyor belt 33 is mounted on the frame 31 via a mounting bracket 5; the front end of the mounting bracket 5 is provided with a connecting plate 51; the connecting plate 51 is connected to the output end of the cylinder.

[0038] In this embodiment, the conveyor belt 33 includes a drive wheel (not shown in the figure), a driven wheel (not shown in the figure), a belt (not shown in the figure), and a second drive motor 331. The second drive motor 331 is connected to the drive wheel, and the drive wheel and the driven wheel rotate synchronously through the belt.

[0039] In this embodiment, the cylinder and a sensor 4 are connected via a PLC controller. Specifically, the sensor 4 is located at the rear end of the conveyor belt 33. When the sensor 4 detects that bottle a has passed by, the cylinder actively and quickly presses down slightly and then resets, thereby improving the capping effect.

[0040] In this embodiment, the connecting plate 51 has strip-shaped holes 511 on both sides; the frame 31 has through holes 311 on both sides; the connecting plate 51 and the frame 31 are connected by a limiting strip 6 passing through the through holes 311 and the strip-shaped holes 511. The above design is to provide support when the machine is stopped. Of course, the design of the limiting strip 6 and the strip-shaped holes 511 should meet the condition of not hindering the swing of the conveyor belt 33, for example, the strip-shaped holes 511 can be designed as arcs.

[0041] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, those skilled in the art will understand that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the claims and their equivalents.
