Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of container filling, and in particular to a transplanting device based on container filling. Background Technology
[0002] During the container filling process, containers need to be transferred from the initial storage boxes to the loading station for subsequent filling operations. The degree of automation and reliability of this transfer process directly affects the overall production efficiency and container processing quality.
[0003] In existing technologies, container transfer devices typically use robotic arms or multi-station conveyor structures to achieve transfer. However, investigations have revealed that during the operation of some devices (i.e., during the grabbing and transfer of containers), the opening of the container is sometimes blocked by the upper conveyor structure. Therefore, when performing relative motion, this undoubtedly increases the risk of contamination from impurities entering the container through the opening, which in turn directly affects the purity and effectiveness of the reagents.
[0004] Therefore, a container-filling-based transplanting device is needed to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a container-based transfer device that ensures the container opening remains unobstructed during operation, thereby effectively preventing impurities from entering the container and improving the reliability and automation of the container transfer process to meet the needs of container filling production.
[0006] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model provides a container-filling-based transplanting device, including a base plate, a lifting and translating mechanism, a bottle-picking arm, and a bottle-feeding arm.
[0007] The lifting and translation mechanisms are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the base plate;
[0008] The bottle-picking arm and the bottle-delivering arm are respectively mounted on the two lifting and translating mechanisms, and both have an adsorption clamping part, with the adsorption clamping part of the bottle-picking arm and the adsorption clamping part of the bottle-delivering arm facing opposite directions.
[0009] The bottle-picking arm is used to sequentially pick up containers from the nest boxes located on the upper surface of the substrate and transport the containers to the bottle-feeding arm;
[0010] The bottle feeding arm is used to receive the containers output by the bottle picking arm, and is also used to transport the containers to the loading station;
[0011] When the bottle-picking arm delivers the container to the bottle-feeding arm, the opening of the container is always unobstructed.
[0012] Furthermore, when the bottle-taking arm transports the container to the bottle-feeding arm, the running track of the bottle-taking arm is in a "卩" shape.
[0013] Furthermore, the lifting and translation mechanism includes a vertical driving member and a horizontal driving member;
[0014] The vertical driving member is arranged at the bottom of the substrate and has a lifting shaft penetrating through the substrate;
[0015] The horizontal driving member is fixedly installed on the lifting shaft.
[0016] Furthermore, the lifting and translation mechanism includes at least two groups of the vertical driving members, and the two groups of lifting shafts are located on both sides of the lower surface of the horizontal driving member.
[0017] Furthermore, the horizontal driving member includes a horizontal guide rail, a horizontal slider and a horizontal driving source;
[0018] The horizontal guide rail is fixedly installed on the lifting shaft;
[0019] The horizontal slider is slidably installed on the upper surface of the horizontal guide rail and is used for fixedly connecting with the bottle-taking arm or the bottle-feeding arm;
[0020] The horizontal driving source is used for driving the horizontal slider to move along the horizontal guide rail.
[0021] Furthermore, the adsorption and clamping part includes a clamping plate and a suction nozzle;
[0022] Multiple groups of concave cavities matching the container are arranged on the clamping plate;
[0023] The suction nozzle is arranged in the middle of the concave cavity;
[0024] Among them, a vacuum adsorption device is arranged on the clamping plate, and the vacuum adsorption device is communicated with multiple groups of the suction nozzles through pipelines and is used for providing an adsorption acting force on the container located inside the concave cavity.
[0025] Furthermore, the depth of the concave cavity is one-third to two-thirds of the length of the container.
[0026] Furthermore, the concave cavity is used for clamping and fitting with the middle part of the outer wall of the container.
[0027] Compared with the prior art, the utility model has at least the following beneficial effects:
[0028] By symmetrically arranging lifting and translation mechanisms on both sides of the substrate, and setting the bottle-picking arm and the bottle-feeding arm on the two lifting and translation mechanisms respectively, and making the adsorption clamping parts of the bottle-picking arm and the bottle-feeding arm face opposite directions, the bottle-picking arm can transfer the container from one side of the bottle-feeding arm to the other side when picking up the container in the nest box, so as to complete the transfer of the container. In this process, the opening of the container is always in an unobstructed state, thereby preventing impurities from entering the container from the opening, ensuring the purity and effectiveness of the reagent, improving the reliability and automation level of the container transfer process, and meeting the needs of container filling production.

[0034] The container-filling-based transplanting device of this utility model will now be described in more detail with reference to the schematic diagrams, which illustrate preferred embodiments of this utility model. It should be understood that those skilled in the art can modify the utility model described herein while still achieving its advantageous effects. Therefore, the following description should be understood as being of general knowledge to those skilled in the art and is not intended to limit the utility model.
[0035] Furthermore, based on the teachings of this specification, those skilled in the art can form new technical solutions through cross-combination of different implementation methods without creating technical contradictions. Such variations should all be considered to fall within the protection scope of this patent.
[0036] The present invention will be described in more detail below by way of example with reference to the accompanying drawings. The advantages and features of the present invention will become clearer from the following description. It should be noted that the drawings are in a very simplified form and use non-precise proportions, and are only used to facilitate and clarify the illustration of the embodiments of the present invention.
[0037] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown in the figure, this utility model embodiment proposes a transplanting device based on container filling, including a base plate 1, a lifting and translating mechanism 2, a bottle picking arm 3, and a bottle conveying arm 4.
[0038] The lifting and translation mechanism 2 is symmetrically arranged on both sides of the base plate 1, and is used to install the bottle picking arm 3 and the bottle delivery arm 4 respectively, so that the bottle picking arm 3 and the bottle delivery arm 4 move on both sides of the base plate 1 to sequentially complete the extraction, transfer and output of the contents of the nest box.
[0039] The bottle-picking arm 3 and the bottle-delivering arm 4 are respectively mounted on the two lifting and translating mechanisms 2. The lifting and translating mechanisms 2 are used to provide lifting and translating forces for the bottle-picking arm 3 and the bottle-delivering arm 4, so as to realize the transfer of containers at different work stations.
[0040] The bottle-picking arm 3 and the bottle-feeding arm 4 both have an adsorption clamping part 5. The adsorption clamping part 5 is designed to stably clamp the container through adsorption force, avoiding the hard damage caused by traditional mechanical clamping.
[0041] It should also be noted that the adsorption clamping part 5 of the bottle-retrieving arm 3 and the adsorption clamping part 5 of the bottle-feeding arm 4 face opposite directions. By making the two adsorption clamping parts 5 face opposite directions, a non-interfering operating space is provided for the two to transfer containers, ensuring a smooth transfer operation.
[0042] The bottle-picking arm 3 is used to sequentially extract containers from the nest boxes located on the upper surface of the substrate 1 and transport the containers to the bottle-feeding arm 4. This achieves automated extraction and transfer of containers from their initial storage position (nest box) to their transfer position (bottle-feeding arm 4), replacing manual operation, improving transplanting efficiency, and ensuring orderly container processing by sequential extraction, thus avoiding confusion.
[0043] The bottle delivery arm 4 is used to receive the containers output by the bottle picking arm 3, and also to transport the containers to the loading station 6. This enables the bottle picking arm 3 and the bottle delivery arm 4 to form a coordinated transfer link, realizing the fully automated transfer of containers from the container box to the loading station 6, providing accurate and continuous material supply for subsequent filling processes, and ensuring the stability of the production cycle.
[0044] Among them, when the bottle-taking arm 3 transports the container to the bottle-feeding arm 4, the opening of the container is always unobstructed, so as to avoid the opening of the container being blocked by the bottle-taking arm 3 or other structures during the transfer of the container, and reduce the risk of opening contamination.
[0045] In this device, the lifting and translation mechanisms 2 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the substrate 1, the bottle-taking arm 3 and the bottle-feeding arm 4 are respectively arranged on the two lifting and translation mechanisms 2, and the adsorption and clamping parts 5 of the bottle-taking arm 3 and the bottle-feeding arm 4 face in opposite directions, so that when the bottle-taking arm 3 extracts the container in the nest box, it can be transferred from one side of the bottle-feeding arm 4 to the other side to complete the transfer of the container. Furthermore, during this process, the opening of the container is always unobstructed, so as to avoid impurities from entering the interior of the container through the opening, ensure the purity and effectiveness of the reagent, and achieve the purpose of improving the reliability and automation level of the container transplanting link and meeting the requirements of container filling production.
[0046] As Figure 4 shown, in this embodiment, the running trajectories of the bottle-taking arm 3 and the bottle-feeding arm 4 during container transfer are also limited to further ensure that the opening of the container is always unobstructed during this process.
[0047] Specifically, when the bottle-taking arm 3 transports the container to the bottle-feeding arm 4, the running trajectory of the bottle-taking arm 3 is a "卩" shape.
[0048] For the convenience of understanding the "卩" - shaped running trajectory of the bottle-taking arm 3, the overall movement steps of the bottle-taking arm 3 will be explained here.
[0049] First, when the nest box is transported to a specific position on the substrate 1, the bottle-taking arm 3 presses down under the action of the lifting and translation mechanism 2 and completes the adsorption of the container.
[0050] Subsequently, the bottle-taking arm 3 is lifted upward by the driving of the lifting and translation mechanism 2 (the vertical upward section of the "卩" - shaped trajectory), so that the container is completely separated from the nest box, and the height of the container is greater than the height of the bottle-feeding arm 4. During this process, the opening of the container is unobstructed.
[0051] When it is lifted to the preset height (that is, the height of the container is greater than the height of the bottle-feeding arm 4), the bottle-taking arm 3 translates horizontally towards the side where the bottle-feeding arm 4 is located (the horizontal extension section of the "卩" - shaped trajectory), and keeps the posture of the container stable during the translation process. During this process, the opening of the container is unobstructed.
[0052] When moving to the preset position in the horizontal direction (that is, when the bottle-taking arm 3 moves from one side of the bottle-feeding arm 4 to the other side), the bottle-taking arm 3 moves downward under the driving of the lifting and translation mechanism 2 (the vertical downward section of the "卩" - shaped trajectory) until it moves to the same height as the bottle-feeding arm 4.
[0053] When the height of the bottle picking arm 3 is the same as that of the bottle feeding arm 4, the bottle picking arm 3 moves in the direction close to the bottle feeding arm 4 (i.e., the horizontal extension section at the end of the "卩"-shaped trajectory), and the two adsorption and clamping parts 5 arranged in opposite directions are docked to complete the transfer of the container.
[0054] In the above process, through the orderly actions of first vertically lifting, horizontally translating, vertically descending, and horizontally docking, not only the efficient transfer of the container from the nest box to the bottle feeding arm 4 is achieved, but also the unobstructed state of the container opening is ensured throughout the process through the trajectory design, effectively avoiding the situation where impurities enter the container interior through the opening and cause contamination.
[0055] After the transfer of the above container is completed, the bottle picking arm 3 can directly move downward under the driving of the lifting and translation mechanism 2 to be at the same horizontal plane as the height of the container to be conveyed subsequently, so as to continuously perform the container transfer action and improve the coherence of the action.
[0056] In other embodiments, a specific lifting and translation mechanism 2 is also proposed to improve the driving effect on the bottle picking arm 3 and the bottle feeding arm 4.
[0057] Specifically, the lifting and translation mechanism 2 includes a vertical driving member 21 and a horizontal driving member 22.
[0058] The vertical driving member 21 is arranged at the bottom of the substrate 1 and has a lifting shaft 211 penetrating through the substrate 1, and the horizontal driving member 22 is fixedly installed on the lifting shaft 211.
[0059] In this embodiment, the lifting and translation mechanism 2 includes at least two groups of the vertical driving members 21, and the two lifting shafts 211 are located on both sides of the lower surface of the horizontal driving member 22 to provide stable support for the horizontal driving member 22.
[0060] Among them, the horizontal driving member 22 includes a horizontal guide rail 221, a horizontal slider 222, and a horizontal driving source (not labeled in the figure).
[0061] The horizontal guide rail 221 is fixedly installed on the lifting shaft 211 to provide a guiding reference for the movement of the horizontal slider 222 and ensure the linearity and stability of the sliding trajectory.
[0062] The horizontal slider 222 is slidably installed on the upper surface of the horizontal guide rail 221 and is used to be fixedly connected to the bottle picking arm 3 or the bottle feeding arm 4. By directly connecting the horizontal slider 222 to the bottle picking arm 3 or the bottle feeding arm 4, it is used as an execution component to complete the displacement transmission of the bottle picking arm 3 or the bottle feeding arm 4 in the horizontal direction.
[0063] The horizontal driving source (such as a servo motor, a cylinder, etc.) is used to drive the horizontal slider 222 to move along the horizontal guide rail 221.
[0064] In this embodiment, a specific adsorption clamping part 5 is also proposed to improve the stability of container clamping.
[0065] Specifically, the adsorption clamping part 5 includes a clamping plate 51 and a suction nozzle 52.
[0066] The clamping plate 51 is provided with multiple sets of recesses 511 that match the container. The container is initially positioned by the contour of the recesses 511, which restricts the swaying of the container in the horizontal direction and ensures the stability of the posture during gripping.
[0067] The suction nozzle 52 is disposed in the center of the recess 511, and a vacuum adsorption device is provided on the clamping plate 51. The vacuum adsorption device is connected to multiple sets of suction nozzles 52 through pipelines to provide adsorption force to the container located inside the recess 511. When the container is placed in the recess 511, the vacuum adsorption device generates negative pressure, causing the suction nozzles 52 to apply adsorption force to the outer wall of the container, firmly fixing it in the recess 511 and preventing it from falling off during transportation. That is, by combining the contour positioning of the recess 511 and the adsorption fixation of the suction nozzles 52, a double fixation of the container is achieved, effectively ensuring the stability of the container during movement.
[0068] The depth of the recess 511 is one-third to two-thirds of the container length, thereby increasing the contact area with the container and improving the stability of the container clamping.
[0069] Furthermore, the recess 511 is used to clamp and fit against the middle of the outer wall of the container. Since the middle of the outer wall of the container is near the center of gravity, clamping and fitting here can minimize the overturning moment of the tube, reduce the probability of tilting or swaying during transportation, and further improve the stability of clamping the container.
[0070] Obviously, those skilled in the art can make various modifications and variations to this utility model without departing from its spirit and scope. Therefore, if these modifications and variations fall within the scope of the claims of this utility model and their equivalents, this utility model also intends to include these modifications and variations.
