Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of bottle cap locking devices, and in particular to an aluminum bottle cap locking device. Background Technology

[0002] The final step in filling beverages is to seal the bottles with a capping machine. This simple capping machine is also called a sealing machine. Because of its simple structure, low cost, and minimal maintenance, it is still used by many small and medium-sized wineries and beverage factories for filling, sealing, and capping.

[0003] However, the commonly used sealing machines are extremely unstable in operation and have a high failure rate. When pressing down, they are prone to damaging the bottle cap due to misalignment and uneven force, resulting in a low capping yield. Before the capping action, the bottle cap is often not pre-pressed flat, resulting in poor capping quality. During operation, the operator needs to hold the bottle and hold it against the positioning mechanism to stabilize the bottle until the center sleeve presses down on the bottle cap before releasing the hand. This is inconvenient to operate and has low production efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0032] like Figures 1 to 2As shown, in this embodiment, the present invention includes a base plate 1, an adjustment component 2 disposed on the base plate 1, a locking cap component 3 fixedly connected to the movable end of the adjustment component 2, and a bottle positioning plate 4 disposed below the locking cap component 3. The bottle positioning plate 4 is fixedly connected to the base plate 1. A guide groove 5 for inserting a bottle is formed in the middle of the bottle positioning plate 4. Clamping components 6 for clamping the bottle are provided on both sides of the guide groove 5. The bottle positioning plate 4 has two sliding grooves 7 communicating with the guide groove 5. A limiting component 8 for limiting and abutting the bottle is provided in each sliding groove 7. The bottle positioning plate 4 has a distance detection element 9 for detecting the bottle's positioning status.

[0033] Specifically, the adjusting component 2 is used to control the height of the bottle locking component. The bottle locking component locks the bottle cap at the bottle mouth through the bottle locking blade 34. The distance detection element 9 is located directly below the locking component. The detection midpoint is coaxial with the rotation center of the cap locking component 3. The distance detection element 9 is a proximity switch used to detect the entry of the bottle body.

[0034] With the adjustable position limiting component 8, the operator can adjust the position of the push roller 82 according to the size of the bottle body. When the bottle body is pushed into the guide groove 5 and abuts against the push roller 82, the center of the bottle cap is coaxial with the rotation center of the locking component 3, realizing the rapid positioning of the bottle body. The distance detection component 9 identifies the bottle body in place, and the clamping component 6 pushes out from both sides to clamp and stabilize the bottle body, keeping the bottle body stable during the locking process.

[0035] like Figures 3 to 4 As shown, in this embodiment, the adjustment assembly 2 includes an adjustment seat 21 fixedly connected to the base plate 1, an adjustment drive device 22 disposed on the top of the adjustment seat 21, an adjustment rod 23 connected to the movable end of the adjustment drive device 22, and a lifting platform 24 threadedly engaged with the adjustment rod 23. A lifting cavity 25 is formed in the middle of the adjustment seat 21, and a lifting groove 26 is provided in the vertical direction of the lifting cavity 25. Rotary seats 27 pivotally connected to the adjustment rod 23 are provided at both the upper and lower ends of the lifting groove 26. The adjustment seat 21 is provided with a slide rail 28 that slides with the lifting platform 24.

[0036] Specifically, the adjustment drive device 22 is a rotary motor, and the adjustment rod 23 is a lead screw. The adjustment drive device 22 drives the adjustment rod 23 to rotate, and the lifting platform 24 moves up and down in the vertical direction, thereby driving the cap locking assembly 3 to move closer to or away from the bottle cap.

[0037] In this embodiment, the adjusting seat 21 is provided with a displacement detection element 29 along the lifting groove 26, and the lifting platform 24 is provided with a detection piece that cooperates with the displacement detection element 29. The displacement detection element 29 is used to detect the upper limit position and the lower limit position of the lifting platform 24.

[0038] like Figures 5 to 8 As shown, in this embodiment, the cap locking assembly 3 includes a base 31 fixedly connected to the movable end of the adjusting assembly 2, a cap locking drive device 32 disposed on the upper part of the base 31, a cap locking transmission rod 33 connected to the movable end of the cap locking drive device 32, and a plurality of bottle locking blades 34 hinged to the cap locking transmission rod 33. A sliding cavity 35 is formed at the lower end of the cap locking transmission rod 33. Limiting grooves 36 are formed on both sides of the sliding cavity 35. A limiting pressure rod 37 is floatingly connected inside the sliding cavity 35. A limiting rod 38 is formed at the top of the limiting pressure rod 37 to guide and cooperate with the sliding cavity 35. A pressing sleeve 39 is formed at the lower part of the limiting pressure rod 37 to press against the bottle cap.

[0039] Specifically, the cap locking drive device 32 is a servo motor, which controls the rotation of the cap locking transmission rod 33. The cap locking transmission rod 33 drives multiple bottle locking blades 34 to press out threads and lock the edges along the bottle mouth. A compression spring is formed in the sliding cavity 35 to support and cooperate with the limiting pressure rod 37. The height of the pressing sleeve 39 is lower than the height of the multiple bottle locking blades 34. A sliding sleeve that can slide up and down is provided on the outer periphery of the lower end of the cap locking transmission rod 33. The sliding sleeve is fixedly connected to the limiting rod 38 and moves up and down with the limiting rod 38. The inner side of the bottle locking blade 34 has a protruding edge that abuts against the sliding sleeve. When the limiting pressure rod 37 is in the initial position, the sliding sleeve abuts against the protruding edges of the multiple bottle locking blades 34. At this time, the multiple bottle locking blades 34 are in the open state. When the limiting pressure rod 37 squeezes the bottle cap and moves upward, the sliding sleeve disengages from the protruding edges of the multiple bottle locking blades 34. The spring in the bottle locking blade 34 pulls the blade body to lock the bottle cap at the bottle mouth.

[0040] During the bottle locking operation, the pressing sleeve 39 approaches and contacts the bottle cap, the limiting pressure rod 37 moves upward along the limiting groove 36, and the compression spring applies elastic force to press the bottle cap tightly to prevent the bottle cap from shifting when locking. After the limiting pressure rod 37 rises a certain distance, the bottle locking knife 34 locks the bottle cap onto the bottle mouth.

[0041] In this embodiment, a lock cap mounting plate 331311 is provided in the middle of the lock cap transmission rod 33, and the lock cap mounting plate 331311 is formed with a slot 332 that corresponds to the corresponding bottle lock knife 34 for hinge connection.

[0042] Specifically, the middle part of the bottle-locking knife 34 is hinged to the slot 332, the upper part of the bottle-locking knife 34 has a pulley that slides with the cap-locking transmission rod 33, and the lower part of the bottle-locking knife 34 has a knife body that locks with the cap.

[0043] In this embodiment, the pressing sleeve 39 is flared, narrow at the top and wide at the bottom.

[0044] Specifically, the trumpet-shaped pressing sleeve 39, which is narrower at the top and wider at the bottom, fits more stably with the upper surface of the bottle cap. The pressing sleeve 39 is made of rubber and uses its elasticity to press and limit the bottle cap at the bottle mouth.

[0045] like Figure 9 As shown, in this embodiment, the clamping assembly 6 includes a clamping drive device 61, a clamping block 62, and a positioning frame 63. The clamping drive device 61 is fixedly connected to the bottle positioning plate 4. The clamping block 62 is fixedly connected to the movable end of the clamping drive device 61. The positioning frame 63 is disposed above the clamping drive device 61 and is fixedly connected to the bottle positioning plate 4. The clamping block 62 forms a bayonet 64 that clamps and engages with the bottle body.

[0046] Specifically, the clamping drive device 61 is a telescopic cylinder, the clamping block 62 is made of rubber, and the bayonet 64 is V-shaped to stabilize the bottle body.

[0047] like Figure 2 and Figure 10 As shown, in this embodiment, each of the sliding grooves 7 has connecting grooves 71 on both its left and right side walls. The limiting assembly 8 includes a limiting slider 81, a pusher wheel 82, and a locking member 84. Guide protrusions 83 are formed on both sides of the limiting sliding groove 7 to slide in cooperation with the connecting grooves 71. A connecting post 85 is formed at the front end of the limiting slider 81, and the pusher wheel 82 is bolted to the connecting post 85. A positioning hole 86 is formed at the rear end of the limiting slider 81, and the locking member 84 passes through the positioning hole 86 and is detachably connected to the sliding groove 7.

[0048] Specifically, the pusher 82 is made of rubber and is slidably connected to the limit slider 81 in the slide groove 7. The operator can adjust the position of the pusher 82 according to the size of the bottle so that the center of the bottle cap and the rotation center of the locking cap assembly 3 are on the same axis after the bottle is pushed in.

[0049] In this embodiment, the angle between the two grooves 7 is between 50 and 70 degrees.

[0050] The working principle of this utility model:

[0051] The staff adjusts the position of the pusher 82 according to the size of the bottle. When the bottle is pushed into the guide groove 5 and abuts against the pusher 82, the center of the bottle cap is coaxial with the rotation center of the cap locking assembly 3. After the distance detection element 9 detects the bottle entering, the clamping drive device 61 pushes out the bayonet 64 to clamp and fix the bottle. The adjustment drive device 22 drives the adjustment rod 23 to rotate, and the lifting platform 24 moves up and down in the vertical direction, thereby driving the cap locking assembly 3 to approach the bottle cap. The pressing sleeve 39 approaches and contacts the bottle cap. The limiting pressure rod 37 moves upward along the limiting groove 36, and the compression spring applies elastic force to press the bottle cap to prevent the bottle cap from shifting when locking. When the limiting pressure rod 37 rises a certain distance, multiple bottle locking blades 34 lock the bottle cap on the bottle mouth, completing the locking of a single bottle cap.

[0052] Although the embodiments of this utility model are described with reference to actual solutions, they do not constitute a limitation on the meaning of this utility model. For those skilled in the art, modifications to the implementation schemes and combinations with other schemes based on this specification are obvious.
