Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of automated processing technology, and in particular to a bottle feeding mechanism. Background Technology

[0002] During the production, filling, or packaging of bottles, it is often necessary to perform post-treatment on the bottle neck, such as putting on a soft rubber sleeve to protect the bottle neck or to achieve a seal.

[0003] In related technologies, bottles are placed into a vibratory feeder, which arranges the bottles through vibration and guide rails. As the vibratory feeder vibrates, the bottles are straightened, and then transported to the processing equipment via the guide rails.

[0004] Regarding the aforementioned technologies, the inventors believe that the vibratory feeder generates significant noise during operation, and the bottle's center of gravity is relatively high, making it prone to tipping over during transport, thus affecting the bottle's processing efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0005] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to provide a bottle feeding mechanism that solves the technical problem that the vibratory feeder is noisy during operation and the bottle has a high center of gravity, making it easy for the bottle to tip over during the conveying process, thus affecting the bottle processing efficiency.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution:

[0007] A bottle feeding mechanism includes: a frame for supporting the feeding mechanism; a turntable rotatably mounted on the frame, on which bottles are placed; a conveyor belt mounted on the frame for conveying bottles to the turntable; an uprighting assembly mounted on the frame for standing the bottles upright; and a feeding assembly mounted on the frame for conveying the uprighted bottles to the turntable.

[0008] Furthermore, the upright assembly includes a flipping block and a flipping cylinder. The flipping cylinder is mounted on the frame, and the flipping block is mounted on the flipping cylinder. The flipping block has a flipping hole, and the bottle is embedded in the flipping hole.

[0009] Furthermore, a first guide slope is formed on the flipping block, and the first guide slope is inclined toward the inside of the flipping hole.

[0010] Furthermore, the feeding assembly includes a first feeding cylinder and a second feeding cylinder. The first feeding cylinder is horizontally mounted on the frame, and the second feeding cylinder is mounted on the first feeding cylinder. The second feeding cylinder is equipped with grippers that grip the bottle.

[0011] Furthermore, the turntable is provided with positioning posts, and a number of positioning posts are arranged at intervals around the turntable, and each of the positioning posts is provided with a positioning hole.

[0012] Furthermore, the frame is equipped with a lifting cylinder and a lifting plate. The lifting cylinder is vertically mounted on the frame, and the lifting plate is mounted on the piston rod of the lifting cylinder. A detection rod is provided on the lifting plate, with one end of the detection rod slidably mounted on the lifting plate and the other end extending towards the side close to the positioning column. A sensor is provided on the lifting plate, with the sensor facing towards the side close to the detection rod.

[0013] Furthermore, a rotary motor is provided on the frame, the rotary motor is mounted on the frame, and the output shaft of the rotary motor is connected to the turntable.

[0014] In summary, this application includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects of the bottle feeding mechanism:

[0015] In use, the conveyor belt transports the bottles to one side of the upright assembly. After the bottles move to the upright assembly, the upright assembly stands the bottles upright. Then, the feeding assembly moves the bottles to the turntable. The bottles are then processed as the turntable rotates. The conveyor belt operates with low noise, and the bottles are in a lying position during transport, only standing upright after moving to the upright assembly. This prevents the bottles from tipping over during transport and improves the processing efficiency of the bottles.

[0016] By using a flipping block and a flipping cylinder, as well as a positioning pin and a flipping hole, the stability of the bottle during processing is improved.

[0017] By using the first and second feeding cylinders and the rotating motor, the processing efficiency of the bottle is improved. Attached Figure Description

[0023] In order to make the technical means, creative features, objectives and effects of this utility model easier to understand, the present utility model will be further described below in conjunction with specific embodiments.

[0024] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figure 1-4 This application will be described in further detail.

[0025] This application discloses a bottle feeding mechanism.

[0026] Reference Figure 1 A bottle feeding mechanism includes a frame 1, on which a turntable 11 is mounted and rotatably. A conveyor belt 12 is positioned near the rotating side of the frame 1, and an upright assembly 2 is positioned between the conveyor belt 12 and the turntable 11. A feeding assembly 3 is positioned between the upright assembly 2 and the turntable 11. The conveyor belt 12 feeds bottles to the upright assembly 2, which holds the bottles upright, and the feeding assembly 3 feeds the bottles onto the turntable 11.

[0027] The conveyor belt 12 is horizontally installed on the frame 1. When in use, the bottle is laid down on the conveyor belt 12. Because the bottle is laid down for conveying, compared with the existing technology, the bottle is kept vertical for conveying, which has stronger stability.

[0028] Reference Figures 2-3The upright assembly 2 includes a tilting block 21 and a tilting cylinder 22. The tilting cylinder 22 is mounted on the frame 1, and the tilting block 21 is mounted on the tilting cylinder 22. In use, the tilting cylinder 22 drives the tilting block 21 to tilt 90 degrees from one side of the conveyor belt 12. The tilting block 21 has a tilting hole 211, and a first guide slope 212 is formed on the side of the tilting block 211 near the tilting hole 211. The first guide slope 212 is inclined inward towards the tilting hole 211. In use, the positioning hole 41 on the tilting block 21 is tilted to a horizontal state under the action of the tilting cylinder 22. Then, the bottle moves towards the side near the tilting block 21 under the conveyor belt 12. When the bottle moves to the tilting block 21, the first guide slope 212 guides the bottle so that the bottle can enter the tilting hole 211 of the tilting block 21. Then, the tilting cylinder 22 drives the tilting block 21 to rotate 90 degrees, so that the bottle is in an upright state.

[0029] The feeding assembly 3 includes a first feeding cylinder 31 and a second feeding cylinder 32. The first feeding cylinder 31 is horizontally positioned between the tilting block 21 and the turntable 11. The second feeding cylinder 32 is mounted on the first feeding cylinder 31 and is equipped with a clamping cylinder 33 and a gripper 34. In use, the first feeding cylinder 31 drives the second feeding cylinder 32 to move between the tilting block 21 and the turntable 11. The second feeding cylinder 32 drives the clamping cylinder 33 to move towards the side closer to the tilting block 21. The clamping cylinder 33 drives the gripper 34 to clamp the bottle. Then, the bottle is placed on the turntable 11 via the first feeding cylinder 31, the second feeding cylinder 32, and the gripper 34.

[0030] A rotary motor 13 is installed on the frame 1. The output shaft of the rotary motor 13 is connected to the turntable 11. When in use, the rotary motor 13 drives the turntable 11 to rotate.

[0031] Due to the rotation of the turntable 11, the bottle is subjected to acceleration on the turntable 11, causing it to tip over. To improve the stability of the bottle's position on the turntable 11, positioning posts 4 are provided on the turntable 11. Several positioning posts 4 are spaced around the turntable 11, and all of them are vertically arranged and mounted on the turntable 11. Furthermore, each of the positioning posts 4 has a positioning hole 41, the axis of which is coaxial with the center of the positioning post 4. In use, the gripper 34 places the bottle into the positioning hole 41 of the positioning post 4.

[0032] To improve the ease of placing the bottle into the positioning hole 41, a second guide slope 42 is provided on the positioning post 4. The second guide slope 42 faces the inside of the positioning hole 41. In use, the second guide slope 42 guides the bottle, thereby improving the ease of placing the bottle into the positioning post 4.

[0033] Reference Figure 4 Furthermore, to improve the processing efficiency of subsequent bottles and prevent subsequent processing from operating on the positioning post 4 where no bottle has been placed, a lifting plate 5 and a lifting cylinder 51 are provided on the frame 1. The lifting cylinder 51 is vertically mounted on the frame 1, with one end of the piston rod of the lifting cylinder 51 facing towards the side near the turntable 11. The lifting plate 5 is mounted on the piston rod of the lifting cylinder 51. Furthermore, a detection rod 52 is provided on the lifting plate 5. The detection rod 52 is vertically positioned, with one end slidingly engaging with the lifting plate 5, and the other end extending towards the side near the positioning post 4. In addition, a sensor 53 is provided on the lifting plate 5, with the sensor 53 facing towards the side near the detection rod 52. In use, the lifting cylinder 51 drives the lifting plate 5 to move closer to the positioning column 4. When a bottle is placed on the positioning column 4, the detection rod 52 rises. When the sensor 53 detects that the detection rod 52 has risen, the subsequent processing will process the bottle on the corresponding positioning block. When the detection rod 52 has not risen, the subsequent processing will skip the corresponding positioning column 4, which greatly improves the processing efficiency of the bottle.

[0034] The above are all preferred embodiments of this application, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this application. Therefore, all equivalent changes made in accordance with the structure, shape and principle of this application should be covered within the scope of protection of this application.
