Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of drop-forming popping beads technology, and in particular to a guide tube structure for drop-forming popping beads. Background Technology

[0002] With advancements in manufacturing processes, drop-formed capsules have become widely used in cigarettes, pharmaceuticals, and food, especially in production where high demands are placed on the stability and uniformity of the droplets. To ensure that each drop of liquid is precisely and stably transformed into a capsule during the drop-forming process, precise flow control is crucial. Traditional guide tube designs often employ smooth inner walls to ensure smooth liquid flow; however, in practical applications, this design frequently leads to droplet instability, affecting production quality. Therefore, improving the stability of liquid flow and the precision of drop-forming is one of the core objectives of current guide tube design improvements.

[0003] Currently, traditional flow guides primarily transport liquid from a storage tank to the dripping device via circular pipes. In these systems, the inner wall of the flow guide is typically smooth to reduce resistance and friction in the liquid flow. During the flow, the liquid drips into the dripping area through the pipe opening, with the dripping rate controlled by gravity and hydrodynamics. To maintain droplet stability, some flow guides are designed with a specific outlet angle or incorporate airflow assistance; however, these methods largely rely on the inherent flow characteristics of the liquid and have limited impact on the dripping stability.

[0004] While traditional flow guide tube structures can accomplish basic liquid transport tasks, their overly smooth inner walls often cause continuous dripping due to changes in flow velocity or pipe bends, resulting in unstable dripping. This problem directly affects the production quality of the bursting beads, especially in production environments requiring high precision and stability, where traditional designs struggle to meet the demands. Summary of the Invention

[0005] To overcome the above shortcomings, this utility model provides a guide tube structure for dripping popping beads, which aims to improve the problem that the smooth inner wall of traditional guide tubes easily leads to continuous droplets.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: a guide tube structure for dripping popping beads, comprising a guide tube body, an extension tube fixedly connected to the top of the guide tube body, a threaded groove inside the guide tube body, a straight groove inside the guide tube body, a sealing component inside the guide tube body, and a connecting groove inside the guide tube body.

[0007] The sealing assembly includes a connecting ring that fits into a connecting groove, a sealing ring that is fixedly connected to the top of the connecting ring, a groove that is formed inside the sealing ring, and a reinforcing component that is provided inside the guide tube body.

[0008] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0009] The reinforcing component includes a convex ring, the outer wall of which is fixedly connected to the inside of the guide tube body, and the convex ring is fitted into the groove.

[0010] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0011] The extension tube is slidably connected to a connecting tube, and the connecting tube has a slot and a reinforcing groove inside.

[0012] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0013] A connecting plate is fixedly connected to the top of the guide pipe body, and a disassembly groove is provided inside the connecting plate.

[0014] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0015] A locking block is fixedly connected to one side of the connecting plate, and the locking block fits into the locking slot.

[0016] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0017] A reinforcing strip is fixedly connected to the bottom of the card block, and the reinforcing strip fits into the reinforcing groove.

[0018] This utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0019] 1. In this utility model, the liquid first falls into the bottom of the guide tube body through the threaded groove, which can improve the flow rate and stability of the liquid. Then, it falls rapidly through the straight groove at the opening of the guide tube body, which can improve the stability of dripping. This solves the problem that the smooth inner wall of the traditional guide tube can easily lead to continuous droplets, and improves the production quality of dripping popping beads.

[0020] 2. In this utility model, the guide tube body is fitted into the slot by a locking block on one side of the connecting plate. At the same time, the bottom of the locking block is embedded in the reinforcing groove by a reinforcing strip to improve the connection strength between the connecting plate and the connecting tube, thus achieving the effect of easy disassembly and assembly of the guide tube. This solves the problem of the relatively cumbersome disassembly and assembly that requires the use of tools when installing on equipment, and improves the convenience of the guide tube.

[0028] 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 of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0029] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 5 This utility model provides an embodiment of a flow guide tube structure for dripping explosive beads, including a flow guide tube body 1 for carrying and guiding liquid downward flow. An extension tube 2 is fixedly connected to the top of the flow guide tube body 1. The extension tube 2 is used to connect to an upstream liquid supply device to extend the flow path and ensure the continuity and stability of the liquid supply. A threaded groove 3 is opened inside the flow guide tube body 1. The threaded groove 3 is set on the inner wall of the flow guide tube body 1 to disturb the liquid flow and improve the adhesion and flow stability of the liquid during the falling process. A straight groove 4 is opened inside the flow guide tube body 1. The straight groove 4 is set at the tube opening to accelerate the release speed of the liquid end and ensure that the liquid quickly leaves the tube body to form a stable droplet. A sealing component is set inside the flow guide tube body 1 to prevent the liquid from leaking during the flow process and improve the sealing performance. A connecting groove 6 is opened inside the flow guide tube body 1 to install and position the connecting ring 8 in the sealing component to ensure that the various structural components are precisely matched.

[0030] The sealing assembly includes a connecting ring 8, which supports the sealing ring 9 to ensure a stable installation. The connecting ring 8 fits into the connecting groove 6, achieving precise fixation between the sealing assembly and the guide tube body 1 through the fitting structure. The sealing ring 9 is fixedly connected to the top of the connecting ring 8. The sealing ring 9 is an elastic sealing element that enhances the overall sealing performance of the device and prevents liquid leakage. The sealing ring 9 has a groove 10 inside, which fits into the convex ring 7 in the reinforcing assembly to provide an axial locking function. The guide tube body 1 is equipped with a reinforcing assembly to enhance the stability of the connection and prevent loosening during liquid flow or disassembly. The reinforcing assembly includes a convex ring 7, which provides limiting support and structural strength as a reinforcing structure. The outer wall of the convex ring 7 is fixedly connected to the inside of the guide tube body 1 to ensure a firm and non-loose connection between the convex ring 7 and the guide tube. The convex ring 7 fits into the groove 10, and the structural fitting improves the installation strength of the sealing assembly and the stability of the overall connection.

[0031] Reference Figure 3 and Figure 4 The extension tube 2 is internally connected to a connecting tube 5, which can slide axially within the extension tube 2. This facilitates length adjustment or quick connection between the guide tube structure and the upstream liquid supply device, improving assembly flexibility. The connecting tube 5 has a slot 11 and a reinforcing groove 12. The slot 11 enables quick positioning and locking between the connecting tube 5 and the guide tube body 1, while the reinforcing groove 12 enhances the structural strength of the connection, preventing loosening or breakage. A connecting plate 13 is fixedly connected to the top of the guide tube body 1. The connecting plate 13 serves as a base for connecting the guide tube and the connecting tube 5, providing a stable installation platform. The connecting plate 13 has a disassembly groove 14, which is used when the guide tube needs replacement or maintenance. The tool insertion allows for convenient assembly and disassembly, improving the overall maintainability and operational efficiency of the guide tube. A locking block 15 is fixedly connected to one side of the connecting plate 13. The locking block 15 serves as part of the limiting and connecting structure and is used to match the locking groove 11 on the connecting tube 5 for quick positioning and fixation. The locking block 15 and the locking groove 11 fit together, achieving a reliable connection through structural fitting and preventing loosening or displacement due to external forces. A reinforcing strip 16 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the locking block 15. The reinforcing strip 16 is used to increase the structural support capacity of the locking block 15 during the connection process. The reinforcing strip 16 fits into the reinforcing groove 12. The fitting structure of the reinforcing strip 16 and the reinforcing groove 12 further enhances the strength and stability of the connection and prevents deformation or damage during use.

[0032] Working principle: When using the guide tube structure for dripping burst beads, the guide tube body 1 is directly inserted into the connecting tube 5 when connecting it to the connecting tube 5. The guide tube body 1 is then engaged with the slot 11 via the locking block 15 on one side of the connecting plate 13. At the same time, the bottom of the locking block 15 is embedded in the reinforcing groove 12 via the reinforcing strip 16 to improve the connection strength between the connecting plate 13 and the connecting tube 5. When disassembling, the guide tube body 1 and the connecting tube 5 can be unlocked by inserting a finger into the disassembly groove 14 and pushing the connecting plate 13 outward. This achieves the effect of improving the dripping stability.

[0033] When dripping the bursting beads, the guide tube body 1 and the connecting tube 5 are sealed by the sealing ring 9. The sealing ring 9 is connected by the connecting ring 8 embedded in the connecting groove 6, and the connection strength is improved by the convex ring 7 embedded in the connecting ring 8. Then, the liquid falls into the bottom of the guide tube body 1 through the threaded groove 3, which can improve the flow rate and stability of the liquid. Then, it falls quickly at the pipe opening of the guide tube body 1 through the straight groove 4, preventing accumulation at the pipe opening, thus achieving the effect of easy disassembly and assembly of the guide tube.

[0034] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
