Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of logistics transportation technology, and in particular to an online continuous lane separation device. Background Technology
[0002] Because conical flasks cannot be stacked, to ensure the entire production line remains operational even in the event of a minor malfunction, the flasks need to be separated and guided to a buffer loop for temporary storage. Once the malfunction is resolved, the flasks are then moved from the buffer loop to the main conveyor. During the separation of beverage bottles, a swing-arm separation mechanism is often used to push the bottles to another conveyor. However, because the bottles are conical, wider at the top and narrower at the bottom, they are prone to tipping over during this pushing process, making it impossible to complete the separation operation. Utility Model Content
[0003] In view of the shortcomings of the existing technology, the purpose of this utility model is to provide an online continuous lane separation device.
[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution provided by an embodiment of this utility model is as follows:
[0005] An online continuous lane separation device includes:
[0006] frame;
[0007] A chain drive mechanism is mounted on the frame;
[0008] A lane-separating mechanism is disposed on the frame. The lane-separating mechanism includes an unexited track, an exited track, a lane-separating component, and a drive mechanism. The drive mechanism is used to drive the lane-separating component so that the lane-separating component engages with the unexited track or the exited track.
[0009] A pushing mechanism includes multiple pushing components, each of which includes at least one sliding rod, a slider movably disposed on the at least one sliding rod, and a protrusion and a pushing member connected to the slider. The two ends of the at least one sliding rod are respectively connected to the chain drive mechanism, and the protrusion is movable into the guide member.
[0010] As a further improvement of this utility model, the channel divider includes two elastic channel dividers spaced apart, one end of each elastic channel divider is fixed and the other end is free, and a guide channel is formed between the two channel dividers.
[0011] As a further improvement of this utility model, the driving mechanism includes a cylinder, a base connected to the cylinder, and three cylindrical pins spaced apart from the base. The three cylindrical pins are respectively located on the opposite outer sides of the two elastic guide blocks and between the two elastic guide blocks.
[0012] As a further improvement of this utility model, a limit block is provided on the outer side of each of the elastic lane blocks.
[0013] As a further improvement of this utility model, the unpulled track is a straight track, and the push track includes a first inclined track and a second inclined track connected to each other. The first free end of the first inclined track is adjacent to the entrance end of the straight track, and the second free end of the second inclined track merges with the exit end of the straight track.
[0014] As a further improvement of this utility model, the pushing member includes a base block, a push rod connected to the base block, and a push plate connected to the push rod. The base block and the protrusion are respectively disposed on the upper and lower sides of the slider.
[0015] As a further improvement of this utility model, the protrusion is cylindrical.
[0016] As a further improvement of this utility model, the push plate includes a push plate body and two push blocks connected to the push plate body and spaced apart.
[0017] As a further improvement of this utility model, at least one sliding rod is provided with a guide block, and the push rod passes through the guide block.
[0018] As a further improvement of this utility model, each of the pushing components includes two sliding rods, the slider is respectively sleeved on the two sliding rods, and the guide block is disposed on the two sliding rods.
[0019] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0020] This utility model has a simple structure. It uses a cylinder to drive the oscillating component to switch between the non-exit track and the exit track. At the same time, a chain transmission mechanism drives the pushing component to move. While the protrusion moves in the exit track, the slider moves along the sliding rod, which drives the push plate to push the conical bottle. This achieves non-impact continuous sizing of the conical bottle. The push plate has a large area and can push close to the bottom of the conical bottle during the pushing process, avoiding the conical bottle from tipping over and greatly improving the conveying efficiency.

Detailed Implementation
[0034] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the technical solutions of this utility model, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort should fall within the protection scope of this utility model.
[0035] Please see Figures 1-6 , Figure 8 This application discloses an online continuous lane-separating device 10, including a frame 1, a chain drive mechanism 2, a lane-separating mechanism 3, and a pushing mechanism. The chain drive mechanism 2 is disposed on the frame 1. The lane-separating mechanism 3 is disposed on the frame 1 and includes an unexited track 31, an exited track 32, a lane-separating component 33, and a driving mechanism 34. The driving mechanism 34 is used to drive the lane-separating component 33 to engage with the unexited track 31 or the exited track 32. The pushing mechanism includes a plurality of pushing components 4. Each pushing component 4 includes at least one sliding rod 41, a slider 42 movably disposed on at least one sliding rod 41, and a protrusion 43 and a pushing component 44 connected to the slider 42. The two ends of at least one sliding rod 41 are respectively connected to the chain drive mechanism 2, and the protrusion 43 can move into the lane-separating component 33.
[0036] Please see Figure 6 , Figure 7 The guide component 33 includes two spaced-apart elastic guide blocks 331, one end of which is fixed and the other end is free, forming a guide channel 332 between the two guide blocks 331. Driven by the chain drive mechanism 2, the protrusion 43 can move into the guide channel 332. The other end of the two elastic guide blocks 331 swings under the drive of the drive mechanism 34, for docking with the unpull-out track 31 or the push-out track 32. When the guide channel 332 docks with the unpull-out track 31, the protrusion 43 moves along the guide channel 332 into the unpull-out track 31; when the guide channel 332 docks with the push-out track 32, the protrusion 43 moves along the guide channel 332 into the push-out track 32.
[0037] In this embodiment, the drive mechanism 34 includes a cylinder 341, a base 342 connected to the cylinder 341, and three cylindrical pins 343 spaced apart on the base 342. The three cylindrical pins 343 are located on the opposite outer sides of the two elastic guide blocks 331 and between the two elastic guide blocks 331, respectively. Two cylindrical pins 343 limit the opposite outer sides of the two elastic guide blocks 331, and the movement of the cylindrical pin 343 facilitates the movement of the two elastic guide blocks 331 together. The other cylindrical pin 343 is located between the two elastic guide blocks 331 to limit the distance between the two elastic guide blocks 331, facilitating the passage of the protrusion 43. By pulling the three cylindrical pins 343 on the base 342 through the cylinder 341, the other end of the two elastic guide blocks 331 is moved to dock with the unpull-out track 31 or the push-out track 32.
[0038] To prevent movement at one end of the elastic lane divider 331, it is preferable to provide a limit block 333 on the outer side of each elastic lane divider 331.
[0039] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 3 , Figure 6 In this embodiment, the unexited track 31 is a straight track 311, and the exit track 32 includes a first inclined track 321 and a second inclined track 322 connected to each other. The first free end 3211 of the first inclined track 321 is adjacent to the entrance end 3111 of the straight track 311, and the second free end 3321 of the second inclined track 332 merges with the exit end 3112 of the straight track 311. With this configuration, when docking with the non-exited track 31, the protrusion 43 moves along the guide channel 332 to the entrance end 3111 of the straight track 311 and enters the straight track 311, continues to move along the straight track 311, and exits along the exit end 3112 of the straight track 311; when docking with the exit track 32, the protrusion 43 moves along the guide channel 332 to the first free end 3211 of the first inclined track 321 and enters the first inclined track 321, continues to move along the first inclined track 321 and the second inclined track 322, and exits along the second free end 3321 of the second inclined track 332.
[0040] In this embodiment, the chain drive mechanism 2 includes two chain drive assemblies 21 arranged opposite to each other and a motor 22 used as a power source. Each chain drive assembly 21 is arranged in a ring shape. The two ends of the sliding rod 41 are respectively connected to the two chain drive assemblies 21, and the sliding rod 41 is driven to circulate through the two chain drive assemblies 21.
[0041] In this embodiment, please refer to Figures 8-10The pusher 44 includes a base block 441, a push rod 442 connected to the base block 441, and a push plate 443 connected to the push rod 442. The base block 441 and the protrusion 43 are respectively disposed on the upper and lower sides of the slider 42. When the slider 42 moves along the sliding rod 41, it drives the protrusion 43 and the base plate 441 to move together. The base block 441 drives the push plate 443 to move through the push rod 442.
[0042] To facilitate the movement of the protrusion 43 within the unexited track 31 or the exited track 32, the protrusion 43 is preferably cylindrical.
[0043] In this embodiment, the pusher plate 443 includes a pusher plate body 4431 and two push blocks 4432 connected to the pusher plate body 4431 and spaced apart. The two push blocks 4432 enable the simultaneous pushing of two conical flasks, while saving material costs.
[0044] To ensure the linearity of the push rod 442's movement and thus improve the stability of the push plate 443's push, it is preferable that at least one sliding rod 41 is provided with a guide block 45, through which the push rod 442 passes.
[0045] Please see Figure 8 Each push assembly 4 includes two sliding rods 41, with sliders 42 respectively fitted onto the two sliding rods 41, and guide blocks 45 disposed on the two sliding rods 41.
[0046] When using this utility model, such as Figure 11As shown, two distribution devices 10 are located on both sides of the conveyor line. The conveyor line includes a first conveyor line 51 that connects to the main conveyor line and a second conveyor line 52 that connects to the buffer loop line. When the pushing component 4 does not need to be pushed out, the guide channel 332 of the distribution component 33 connects to the unpushed track 31. The protrusion 43 of the pushing component 4 moves along the guide channel 332 to the entrance end 3111 of the straight track 311 and enters the straight track 311, continuing to move along the straight track 311. At this time, the slider 42 does not move, the push plate 443 does not push out, and the protrusion 43 moves out along the exit end 3112 of the straight track 311. The protrusion 43 circulates through the sliding rod 41 under the drive of the chain transmission mechanism 2 into the guide channel 332 of the distribution component 33. When the pushing component 4 needs to be pushed out, the guide channel 332 of the distribution component 33 connects to the push-out track 32, and the protrusion 43 moves along the guide channel 332 to the first inclined track 321. The first free end 3211 enters the first inclined track 321. As the protrusion 43 moves along the first inclined track 321, the protrusion 43 drives the slider 42 to move along the sliding rod 41 toward the conical bottle. The slider 42 pushes the bottom of the conical bottle 6 through the push rod 442, pushing the conical bottle 6 from the first conveyor line 51 to the second conveyor line 52 for temporary storage in the buffer loop. The protrusion 43 enters the second inclined track 322 and moves along the second inclined track 322. The protrusion 43 drives the slider 42 to return to its original position along the sliding rod 41 and moves out along the second free end 3321 of the second inclined track 332. The protrusion 43 moves cyclically to the guide channel 332 of the dividing component 33 under the drive of the chain transmission mechanism 2 through the sliding rod 41. Once the fault is cleared, the conical bottle 6 on the buffer loop returns to the second conveyor line 52. The movement of the protrusion 43 drives the slider 42, which in turn drives the pusher plate 443 to push the conical bottle to the first conveyor line 51 so that it can enter the main path.
