Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of hose sealing application technology, specifically a hose sealing machine with multiple workstations. Background Technology

[0002] In industries such as pharmaceuticals, daily chemicals, and food, tube packaging is highly favored due to its convenience and strong sealing properties. As a core piece of equipment that determines packaging quality, the precision and efficiency of tube sealing machines directly affect product quality and production efficiency.

[0003] For example, Chinese Patent No. CN220518768U discloses a hose sealing machine, including a base. A feeding mechanism is fixedly connected to the top of the base. The feeding mechanism includes sprockets symmetrically rotatably connected to the top of the base near the end face. A chain is meshed with the outer walls of the two sprockets. A feeding motor is fixedly connected to the bottom of one of the sprockets and installed at the bottom of the base. A movable plate is bolted to the top of the chain. This utility model, by setting a clamping component on the hose feeding device, can quickly clamp and fix hoses of different sizes. It also features a simple and easy-to-maintain sealing mechanism, enabling fast and effective hose sealing. Furthermore, it includes a height adjustment cylinder for convenient adjustment when sealing hoses of different heights.

[0004] However, the aforementioned hose sealing machine can only seal one group of hoses at a time during the hose sealing process. In large-scale production scenarios, the production cycle is significantly extended, making it difficult to meet market demand for product quantity. Furthermore, it cannot automatically remove hoses during the sealing process, requiring manual follow-up processing, such as manually removing sealed hoses and placing new hoses. This not only increases the workload but also reduces work efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a hose sealing machine with multiple workstations to solve the problems mentioned in the background art, such as low single-processing efficiency, insufficient automation, frequent manual intervention, and difficulty in meeting the needs of large-scale production.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:

[0007] A hose sealing machine with multiple workstations includes: a housing, in which a first conveyor is rotatably mounted; the outer surface of the conveyor belt of the first conveyor has multiple sets of partitions; each partition of the conveyor belt has an insertion port; the insertion port is aligned with the position between two sets of first cylinders as the first conveyor moves; the two sets of first cylinders are fixedly mounted in a connecting frame; the connecting frame is fixedly mounted on one end of the upper surface of the housing; and a second cylinder is fixedly mounted on the lower surface of the piston rod of each of the two sets of first cylinders; a sealing pressure plate is fixedly mounted on one end of the piston rod of each of the two opposing sets of second cylinders.

[0008] The other end of the housing is rotatably mounted with a hose filling mechanism. The surface of the hose filling mechanism can be arranged with hoses, and the hoses can be pushed and inserted into the insertion port as the hose filling mechanism conveys them.

[0009] Preferably, a laser rangefinder sensor is fixedly installed at one end of the upper surface of the housing, and its emitting end is horizontally aligned with the shield at the other end. The shield is fixedly installed at the other end of the upper surface of the housing, and the laser beam path of the laser rangefinder sensor can accurately pass through the area slightly below the center of the two sets of sealing plates, and finally be projected onto the receiving surface of the shield.

[0010] Preferably, the signal transmitting end of the laser ranging sensor is connected to the signal receiving end of the controller, and the control output end of the controller is electrically connected to the electrical control end of the first cylinder, the second cylinder, the first conveyor, and the hose filling mechanism. The models of the laser ranging sensor and the controller are ifmOID and S-, respectively.

[0011] Preferably, when the first conveyor is running and the hose is moving along the conveyor track, once the hose enters the laser beam area, the laser emitted by the laser ranging sensor is blocked, triggering a signal change. Based on the preset spacing parameters, the laser ranging sensor transmits real-time data to the controller. The controller can determine the hose position. When it detects that the center of the hose coincides with the center of the sealing plate, it immediately sends a command to start the first cylinder, the second cylinder, and the sealing plate, so that the dual cylinders drive the sealing plate to move quickly from the bottom to the center. Through precise pressure control and a preset heating program, the hose tail is efficiently sealed.

[0012] Preferably, the hose filling mechanism includes a second conveyor and a connecting column. The second conveyor is rotatably installed at one end inside the housing. The connecting column is also rotatably installed inside the housing and located between the first conveyor and the second conveyor. One end of the connecting column is fixedly connected to the output shaft of the motor. The outer surface of the conveyor belt of the second conveyor is also provided with a partition, and this partition is opposite to the partition of the first conveyor.

[0013] Preferably, a pusher plate is fixedly installed on the outer surface of the connecting column. The pusher plate is flush with the U-shaped chute plate. The U-shaped chute plate is fixedly installed inside the housing and one end is in contact with the upper end of the outer surface of the separator of the second conveyor belt. The other end of the U-shaped chute plate is flush with the separator of the first conveyor and can be flush with and connected to the U-shaped chute plate as the transmission insertion port of the first conveyor moves.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0015] 1. Automated high-precision sealing: Through the coordinated operation of the first conveyor, insertion port, cylinder, laser rangefinder sensor and hose filling mechanism, the hose is automatically filled, conveyed, positioned and sealed. The laser rangefinder accurately triggers the sealing action, and the controller adjusts the pressure and heating program in real time to ensure the sealing quality. Multiple insertion ports are used in conjunction with cyclic feeding to process multiple sets of hoses simultaneously, which greatly shortens the production cycle and significantly improves the production capacity.

[0016] 2. Stable material conveying: The conveying structure, consisting of a second conveyor, a pusher plate, a U-shaped chute plate, and connecting columns, utilizes the pushing of the hose and the rotation of the pusher plate to achieve continuous and precise transfer of the hose from the second conveyor to the first conveyor, providing a stable material supply for the sealing process and ensuring production continuity.

[0022] 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, 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.

[0023] like Figures 1-3 As shown, this embodiment provides a hose sealing machine with multiple workstations, including: a housing 1, a first conveyor 101 rotatably installed inside the housing 1, multiple sets of partition openings are opened on the outer surface of the conveyor belt of the first conveyor 101, and an insertion port 102 is opened in the partition opening of the conveyor belt of the first conveyor 101. The insertion port 102 can be aligned with the position between two sets of first cylinders 103 as the first conveyor 101 is driven. The two sets of first cylinders 103 are fixedly installed in the connecting frame 106. The connecting frame 106 is fixedly installed at one end of the upper surface of the housing 1, and a second cylinder 107 is fixedly installed on the lower surface of the piston rod of each of the two sets of first cylinders 103. A sealing pressure plate 108 is fixedly installed at one end of the piston rod of each of the two sets of opposing second cylinders 107.

[0024] The other end of the housing 1 is rotatably installed with a hose filling mechanism 2. The surface of the hose filling mechanism 2 can be arranged with hoses, and the hoses can be pushed and inserted into the insertion port 102 as the hose filling mechanism 2 conveys.

[0025] A laser rangefinder 104 is fixedly installed on one end of the upper surface of the housing 1. Its emitting end is horizontally aligned with the shield 105 at the other end. The shield 105 is fixedly installed on the other end of the upper surface of the housing 1. The laser beam path of the laser rangefinder can accurately pass through the area slightly below the center of the two sets of sealing plates 108 and finally be projected onto the receiving surface of the shield 105.

[0026] The signal transmitting end of the laser rangefinder 104 is connected to the signal receiving end of the controller, and the control output end of the controller is electrically connected to the electrical control ends of the first cylinder 103, the second cylinder 107, the first conveyor 101 and the hose filling mechanism 2. The models of the laser rangefinder 104 and the controller are ifmOID200 and S7-1200, respectively.

[0027] When the first conveyor 101 operates and drives the hose along the conveyor track, once the hose enters the laser beam area, the laser emitted by the laser rangefinder 104 is blocked, triggering a signal change. Based on the preset spacing parameters, the laser rangefinder 104 transmits real-time data to the controller. The controller can determine the position of the hose. When it detects that the center of the hose coincides with the center of the sealing plate 108, it immediately sends a command to start the first cylinder 103, the second cylinder 107, and the sealing plate 108, so that the dual cylinders drive the sealing plate 108 to move quickly from the bottom and towards the center. Through precise pressure control and a preset heating program, the end of the hose is efficiently sealed.

[0028] like Figure 4 As shown, the hose filling mechanism 2 includes a second conveyor 201 and a connecting column 204. The second conveyor 201 is rotatably installed inside one end of the housing 1. The connecting column 204 is also rotatably installed inside the housing 1 and located between the first conveyor 101 and the second conveyor 201. One end of the connecting column 204 is fixedly connected to the output shaft of the motor. A partition opening is also provided on the outer surface of the conveyor belt of the second conveyor 201, and this partition opening is opposite to the partition opening of the first conveyor 101. A pusher plate 202 is fixedly installed on the outer surface of the connecting column 204. The pusher plate 202 is flush with the U-shaped chute plate 203. The U-shaped chute plate 203 is fixedly installed inside the housing 1, and one end of it touches the upper end of the outer surface of the partition opening of the conveyor belt of the second conveyor 201. The other end of the U-shaped chute plate 203 is flush with the partition opening of the first conveyor 101 and can be flush with and connected to the U-shaped chute plate 203 as the first conveyor 101 moves through the insertion port 102.

[0029] Working principle: When sealing the hose, the hose can be placed in the partition opening on the outer surface of the conveyor belt of the second conveyor 201. Then, with the continuous conveying of the second conveyor 201, the filled hose is pushed into the U-shaped chute 203. During each periodic transmission of the first conveyor 101, the insertion port 102 on the outer surface of the conveyor belt is aligned with the other end of the U-shaped chute 203. During this process, the hose located in the U-shaped chute 203 is pushed and propelled into the U-shaped chute 203 by the subsequent hoses. The pusher plate 202 is fixedly installed on the outer surface of the connecting post 204 and contacts it. The pusher plate 202 can be rotated by the motor through the connecting post 204 to bite and push the hose in the U-shaped slide plate 203 into the horizontal insertion port 102 that is flush with it. With the periodic transmission of the first conveyor 101, the insertion port 102 is repeatedly driven to be flush with the U-shaped slide plate 203, realizing the continuous and accurate filling of the hose from the second conveyor 201 to the first conveyor 101. Each time the first conveyor 101 drives the insertion port 102 to be flush with the U-shaped slide plate 203, the insertion port 102 is flush with the U-shaped slide plate 203. During the process, the insertion port 102 on its upper surface is also positioned between the two sets of first cylinders 103. This allows the flexible tube inside the insertion port 102 to enter the laser beam area between the laser rangefinder 104 and the shielding plate 105, thus blocking the laser trigger signal change. This allows the laser rangefinder 104 to transmit a signal to the controller, which then immediately controls the first cylinder 103 and the second cylinder 107 under its piston rod. The first cylinder 103 can then push the second cylinder 107. As the sealing plate 108 moves vertically downwards and is positioned at both ends of the outer surface of the hose, the activated second cylinder 107 drives the sealing plate 108 to move inwards synchronously. In conjunction with the preset heating program, precise pressure control and efficient sealing are performed on the hose tail. After the sealing operation is completed, the controller can control the second cylinder 107 to return to its original position. The hose after sealing can be conveyed by the first conveyor 101. When it faces downwards, it will fall out of the insertion port 102 due to gravity. The operator can place a storage container at the lower end of the housing 1 to catch it.

[0030] In summary, by organically combining multi-station hose sealing and end-sealing with an intelligent control system, highly efficient automation of the entire hose packaging production process has been achieved. From precise hose feeding to laser positioning, and then to the coordinated operation of the dual-cylinder driven sealing plate 108, each link works closely together, significantly improving production efficiency and product quality.

[0031] All parts not described in this utility model are the same as or can be implemented using existing technology. Although embodiments of this utility model have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of this utility model, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
