[0002] Detection of liquid impurities in glass medicine bottles plays a crucial role in the pharmaceutical production process, and its main function is to ensure the safety and quality stability of medicines.

[0003] Traditional manual light inspection relies on visual inspection of bottles for impurities, which can meet basic testing needs to a certain extent. However, with the expansion of production scale and the increasing requirements for testing accuracy, semi-automatic equipment has been gradually introduced. For example, an automatic light inspection machine (patent number CN103884721B, published on April 13, 2016) uses a design combining a bottle-carrying rotating cage with a synchronous tracking image acquisition mechanism. It uses a rotating worktable to move the bottles for inspection and utilizes inlet and outlet wheels for transport. Although existing equipment has certain advantages in testing efficiency and some application scenarios, it still has significant limitations. First, the synchronous rotation of the mechanical transmission system is prone to error accumulation, affecting testing stability; second, it has weak compatibility with bottles of different sizes.

[0031] Example 1:

[0032] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, this embodiment provides an automatic glass medicine bottle light inspection machine, including: a detection platform 1, on which a detection housing 11 is provided; a transmission component 2, disposed inside the detection housing 11 and located on the detection platform 1, with a transmission roller 27 disposed on the upper part of the detection platform 1 for transmitting glass medicine bottles; and a spacing adjustment component 3, disposed inside the transmission component 2, with an upper positioning pin 31 and a sliding block 32 disposed inside the transmission component 2 for adjusting the spacing between the transmission rollers 27.

[0033] In this embodiment, the transmission component 2 and the spacing adjustment component 3 constitute an automatic light inspection machine for glass medicine bottles according to this application.

[0034] It should also be understood that the drive motor 21 and the detection light source 4 are common knowledge in the field. They are used without modification, so the control method and circuit connection will not be described in detail.

[0035] In this embodiment, the glass medicine bottle is first transferred from the previous process to the feeding channel 12. The curved channel inside the feeding channel 12 transports the glass medicine bottle to the gap between two sets of adjacent conveying rollers 27. The bottom of the glass medicine bottle is fixed at a fixed height with the medicine bottle fixing ring 28 under the two sets of conveying rollers 27. At the same time, the user starts the drive motor 21. The output end of the drive motor 21 drives the first bevel gear 22 to rotate. The first bevel gear 22 meshes with the second bevel gear 23 to rotate. The transmission rod 24 at the bottom of the second bevel gear 23 drives the upper and lower sprockets 25 to rotate. The sprockets 25 drive the upper and lower sets of conveying chains 26. The two sets of adjacent conveying rollers 27 drive the glass medicine bottle to the discharge channel 13. During this process, when the glass medicine bottle passes the detection light source 4, the light from the detection light source 4 illuminates the inside of the glass medicine bottle. The glass medicine bottle with impurities inside will be visible. Then, the user can observe it through the mirror reflection of the reflector 14. The user steps on the stop pedal 29 to turn off the drive motor 21 and stop its operation. The user then takes out the glass medicine bottle containing impurities.

[0036] It should be noted that the glass medicine bottles enter the inspection platform 1 through the feeding channel. The transmission rollers 27 rotate under the drive of the transmission assembly 2, moving the medicine bottles forward. The upper positioning pins 31 are inserted into the fixing holes of the sliding blocks 32. The spacing between the transmission rollers 27 is adjusted by the extension and retraction of the sliding blocks 32 to accommodate medicine bottles of different sizes.

[0037] Specifically, the transmission assembly 2 includes: a drive motor 21, disposed inside the detection housing 11; a first bevel gear 22, rotating inside the detection housing 11 and connected to the output end of the drive motor 21; a second bevel gear 23, rotating inside the detection housing 11 and meshing with the first bevel gear 22; a transmission rod 24, disposed inside the detection housing 11 and connected at its upper end to the second bevel gear 23; six sets of sprockets 25, with two sets fixed to both ends of the transmission rod 24; two sets of transmission chains 26, sleeved on the sprockets 25; several sets of transmission rollers 27, located between two sets of transmission chains 26; and several sets of medicine bottle fixing rings 28, fixed to the bottom of the transmission rollers 27 for fixing glass medicine bottles.

[0038] In this embodiment, after the drive motor 21 starts, it transmits power to the transmission rod 24 through the meshing of the first bevel gear 22 and the second bevel gear 23. The transmission rod 24 drives the sprocket 25 to rotate, and the sprocket 25 drives the transmission roller 27 to rotate through the transmission chain 26. The medicine bottle fixing ring 28 rotates together with the transmission roller 27 to ensure that the glass medicine bottle remains stable during transmission.

[0039] Example 2:

[0040] Based on Example 1, when replacing glass medicine bottles of different sizes and changing the spacing between adjacent transmission rollers 27, the user stops the operation of the drive motor 21, the transmission chain 26 stops transmission, the user moves the transmission roller 27 upward, the top spring 33 of the transmission roller 27 is compressed, the sliding block 32 moves into the transmission roller 27, the bottom of the transmission roller 27 separates from the lower positioning pin 34, then the transmission roller 27 is pulled out, the sliding block 32 separates from the upper positioning pin 31, then the upper positioning pin 31 and the lower positioning pin 34 are found in appropriate positions, and the transmission roller 27 is inserted to fix and adjust the spacing between them.

[0041] Specifically, the spacing adjustment component 3 includes: an upper positioning pin 31, which is disposed at the bottom of the upper transmission chain 26; a sliding block 32, which extends and retracts on the transmission roller 27, and has a fixing hole inside for inserting the upper positioning pin 31; a spring 33, which is disposed inside the top of the transmission roller 27, with one end connected to the bottom of the sliding block 32 and the other end connected to the top of the transmission roller 27; and a lower positioning pin 34, which is disposed at the top of the lower transmission chain 26.

[0042] In a preferred embodiment, the sliding block 32 extends and retracts on the transfer roller 27, the upper positioning pin 31 is inserted into the fixing hole of the sliding block 32, and the lower positioning pin 34 provides support. The elastic force of the spring 33 ensures that the sliding block 32 and the upper positioning pin 31 are in close contact, thereby adjusting the spacing between the transfer rollers 27.

[0043] Specifically, the detection housing 11 is equipped with a detection light source 4 located on the detection platform 1, which is used to illuminate the glass medicine bottle for detecting internal impurities.

[0044] In this embodiment, multiple sets of LED light strips are arranged inside the detection light source 4. The detection light source 4 is located inside the detection housing 11. When the glass medicine bottle passes through the detection area, the detection light source 4 illuminates the inside of the medicine bottle, which makes it easier for the detection equipment to identify and detect impurities inside the medicine bottle.

[0045] Specifically, the testing platform 1 includes: a feeding channel 12, which is located on one side of the testing platform 1 and on one side of the testing housing 11; a discharging channel 13, which is located on the side of the testing platform 1 away from the feeding channel 12; two sets of reflectors 14, which are installed on the side of the testing housing 11 near the feeding channel 12; four sets of support legs 15, which are fixed to the four corners of the bottom of the testing platform 1; and four sets of anti-slip pads 16, which are connected to the bottom of the reflectors 14.

[0046] In this configuration, the anti-slip mat 16 is made of natural rubber, which has good elasticity, wear resistance, and anti-slip properties. Glass medicine bottles enter the testing platform 1 through the feeding channel 12 and are discharged from the discharge channel 13 after testing. The reflector 14 reflects the light from the testing light source 4, enhancing the illumination effect of the testing area. The support legs 15 support the entire testing platform 1, and the anti-slip mat 16 prevents the testing platform 1 from sliding during use.

[0047] In actual use, the glass medicine bottle is first transferred from the previous process to the feeding channel 12. The curved channel inside the feeding channel 12 transports the glass medicine bottle to the gap between two sets of adjacent conveying rollers 27. The bottom of the glass medicine bottle is fixed at a fixed height with the medicine bottle fixing ring 28 under the two sets of conveying rollers 27. At the same time, the user starts the drive motor 21. The output end of the drive motor 21 drives the first bevel gear 22 to rotate. The first bevel gear 22 meshes with the second bevel gear 23 to rotate. The transmission rod 24 at the bottom of the second bevel gear 23 drives the upper and lower sprockets 25 to rotate. The sprockets 25 drive the upper and lower sets of conveying chains 26. The two sets of adjacent conveying rollers 27 drive the glass medicine bottle to the discharge channel 13. During this process, when the glass medicine bottle passes the detection light source 4, the light from the detection light source 4 shines into the glass medicine bottle. The glass medicine bottle with impurities inside will be revealed. Then, after being reflected by the mirror 14, the user can observe it. The user steps on the stop pedal 29 to turn off the drive motor 21 and stop the operation. The user then takes out the glass medicine bottle containing impurities. When changing to different sized glass medicine bottles and altering the spacing between adjacent transfer rollers 27, the user stops the drive motor 21, the transfer chain 26 stops transmitting, the user moves the transfer roller 27 upwards, the top spring 33 of the transfer roller 27 is compressed, the sliding block 32 moves into the transfer roller 27, the bottom of the transfer roller 27 separates from the lower positioning pin 34, then the transfer roller 27 is pulled out, the sliding block 32 separates from the upper positioning pin 31, and then the upper positioning pin 31 and lower positioning pin 34 are found in suitable positions, and the transfer roller 27 is inserted to fix and adjust the spacing.

[0048] It should be noted that all electrical components mentioned in this article are connected to an external main controller and 220V AC mains power. The main controller can be a conventional known device that can be controlled by a computer or other means. The detailed description of known functions and known components is omitted in the specific implementation of this disclosure. In order to ensure the compatibility of the device, the operating methods used are consistent with the parameters of commercially available instruments.

[0049] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features.
