[0023] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0024] Example 1: As Figures 1-8 As shown, in this embodiment, a plastic cup discharging mechanism is provided, including a plastic cup feeding mechanism C1 and a discharging component C2 disposed above the plastic cup feeding mechanism. A guide plate C3 is disposed on the side below the discharging component. The discharging component C2 includes a discharging longitudinal telescopic component C21 disposed above the plastic cup feeding mechanism. The discharging longitudinal telescopic component C21 includes a discharging plate C213 that can move up and down and a plurality of discharging suction cups C211 disposed below the discharging plate. The discharging longitudinal telescopic component is driven by the discharging transverse telescopic component C22 to move to the top of the guide plate input end for discharging.

[0025] The aforementioned discharge suction cup is existing technology. The discharge suction cup can be connected to an external negative pressure source via a pipeline to provide negative pressure suction to the discharge suction cup. The negative pressure source can be an air pump.

[0026] During operation: After the heat sealing assembly heat seals the plastic cup and sealing film together in the plastic cup holder, the plastic cup feeding mechanism drives the plastic cup to rotate to the position of the discharge assembly. The longitudinal telescopic cylinder drives the discharge plate and discharge suction cup to move downward and suck up the plastic cup. The longitudinal telescopic cylinder resets, and the lateral telescopic cylinder drives the discharge longitudinal telescopic assembly and plastic cup to move laterally, so that the plastic cup moves closer to the discharge plate. When the plastic cup moves to above the input end of the discharge plate, the discharge suction cup releases the plastic cup, so that the plastic cup is transported along the discharge plate to the goods storage area.

[0027] In this embodiment of the utility model, the discharge plate is driven to rise and fall by a longitudinal telescopic cylinder C212.

[0028] In this embodiment of the utility model, the discharge lateral telescopic component C22 includes a discharge frame C221 and a lateral telescopic cylinder C222 disposed on the discharge frame. The output end of the lateral telescopic cylinder is provided with a lateral push plate C223. The discharge longitudinal telescopic component is installed on the outside of the lateral push plate. A lateral guide rod C224 is disposed on the discharge frame. A lateral guide sleeve C225 is installed on the discharge frame. One end of the lateral guide rod passes through the lateral guide sleeve and slides with the lateral guide sleeve. The other end of the lateral guide rod is fixed to the lateral push plate.

[0029] In this embodiment of the invention, the guide plate is inclined.

[0030] Example 2: Based on Example 1, in this embodiment of the present invention, the plastic cup feeding mechanism is further provided with a heat sealing component C4.

[0031] In this embodiment of the utility model, the heat sealing assembly includes a top plate C401, a heat sealing lifting seat C402, and a heat sealing plate C403 arranged sequentially from top to bottom. A heat sealing cylinder C404 is installed on the top plate, and the output shaft of the heat sealing cylinder passes through the top plate and is connected to the heat sealing lifting seat. The heat sealing seat includes two support plates, and a support plate is provided between the two support plates. Buffer rods C405 are provided at the four corners of the heat sealing lifting seat and the heat sealing plate. The lower end of the buffer rod is fixed to the heat sealing plate, and the upper end of the buffer rod passes through the heat sealing lifting seat and slides with it. A spring C406 is sleeved on the outside of the buffer rod, and the two ends of the spring are respectively connected to the heat sealing plate and the heat sealing lifting seat. Multiple heat sealing heads C407 are provided below the heat sealing plate; the number of heat sealing heads corresponds to the number of plastic cup placement slots on the plastic cup placement seat.

[0032] A cylinder guide post C411 is provided between the heat sealing seat and the top plate. One end of the cylinder guide post is connected to the top plate via a cylinder guide sleeve, that is, the cylinder guide post can slide along the cylinder guide sleeve C412. The other end of the cylinder guide post is fixed to the heat sealing lifting seat. The top plate is fixed to the worktable via a top plate column C413.

[0033] The aforementioned heat sealing head is existing technology. The heat sealing head can change its temperature by heating, thereby performing heat sealing work on plastic cups and sealing films; for example, the heat sealing head may contain a resistance wire.

[0034] When the heat sealing assembly is working: a plastic cup is placed in the plastic cup placement slot on the plastic cup placement seat, and a sealing film is placed in the sealing film placement slot. The sealing film abuts against the opening above the plastic cup. The heat sealing cylinder drives the heat sealing lifting seat, heat sealing plate, and heat sealing head to move downwards synchronously, so that the heat sealing head extends into the sealing film placement slot and heat seals the sealing film onto the plastic cup, thus forming a whole. During the heat sealing process, when the heat sealing head contacts the sealing film and is pressed downwards, the spring can buffer the heat sealing plate and heat sealing head.

[0035] In this embodiment of the utility model, a heat sealing limiting rod C408 is provided below the heat sealing lifting seat, and there is a gap between the heat sealing limiting rod and the heat sealing plate; when the heat sealing plate and the heat sealing head move downward to heat seal the plastic cup and the sealing film, the heat sealing plate will move upward to buffer due to the reaction force, and the heat sealing limiting rod can limit the movement position of the heat sealing plate.

[0036] In this embodiment of the utility model, the plastic cup feeding mechanism C1 includes a worktable C101 and a turntable C102 disposed on the worktable. A rotating shaft C103 is provided between the center of the turntable and the worktable. The rotating shaft is driven to rotate by a motor C104 disposed in the worktable.

[0037] In this embodiment of the utility model, a top plate support rod C409 is provided between the top plate and the center of the turntable, and a bearing C410 is provided between the top plate support rod and the top plate.

[0038] In this embodiment of the utility model, the plastic cup holder is provided with a plurality of plastic cup placement slots C106, and a sealing film placement slot C107 is provided above the plastic cup placement slots.

[0039] In this embodiment of the invention, the sealing film placement groove is slightly larger than the plastic cup placement groove.
