Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of food production equipment technology, and in particular to a structure for a seasoning sealing machine. Background Technology
[0002] A condiment sealing machine is a device used to seal bottled condiments. It typically uses an electric motor or air pump to drive a robotic arm to rotate and tighten the cap onto the bottle. The bottle is usually held by a clamping assembly. This structure usually requires monitoring the number of rotations of the robotic arm during the sealing process to determine if the cap is tightened properly. In actual operation, a high degree of positional accuracy between the cap and the bottle is required, resulting in relatively high operating costs.
[0003] Failure to monitor the number of rotations of the robotic arm may result in bottle caps being too loose or too tight, causing sealing failure or damage to the bottle caps.
[0004] Therefore, the existing technology of condiment sealing machines has a technical problem of easily damaging bottle caps. Summary of the Invention
[0005] The present invention provides a seasoning sealing machine structure that solves the technical problem that the existing seasoning sealing machine structure is prone to damaging the bottle cap.
[0006] Some implementation schemes for solving the above-mentioned technical problems include:
[0007] A seasoning sealing machine structure includes a clamping assembly for clamping bottle caps;
[0008] A power input shaft is used to drive the gripping assembly to tighten the gripped bottle cap onto the bottle body;
[0009] The power input shaft is connected to the clamping assembly via a connector, which is used to prevent the bottle cap from being too tightly connected to the bottle body;
[0010] The connector includes a first transmission disk mounted on the power input shaft and a second transmission disk disposed on the clamping assembly. The power input shaft supplies power to the clamping assembly through the first and second transmission disks. An elastic element is disposed between the first and second transmission disks, and the elastic element pushes the first and second transmission disks into contact.
[0011] The first transmission disc is provided with a first inclined surface, and the second transmission disc is provided with a second inclined surface. When the bottle cap and the cap body are connected too tightly, the first inclined surface and the second inclined surface interfere with each other and overcome the elastic force of the elastic element, causing the first transmission disc to disengage from the second transmission disc.
[0012] Preferably, the clamping assembly is provided with a column, and the second transmission disk is disposed on the column via a connecting frame.
[0013] Preferably, the column is provided with a connecting plate, the connecting frame is fixed to the connecting plate by threads, and the second transmission plate and the connecting frame are an integral structure.
[0014] Preferably, the connecting frame is provided with a stud, the connecting disc is provided with a through hole for the stud to pass through, and the stud is provided with a nut that mates with the stud.
[0015] Preferably, the second inclined surface is disposed on the lower end face of the second transmission disk, the first inclined surface is disposed on the upper end face of the first transmission disk, and the second transmission disk is provided with a through hole through which the power input shaft passes.
[0016] Preferably, the second transmission disk is provided with a second protruding tooth, the second protruding tooth and the second transmission disk are integrally formed, and the side of the second protruding tooth forms the second inclined surface.
[0017] Preferably, the first transmission disk is provided with a first protruding tooth, the first protruding tooth and the first transmission disk are integrally formed, and the side of the first protruding tooth forms the first inclined surface.
[0018] Preferably, the first transmission disc and the power input shaft are an integral structure.
[0019] Preferably, the elastic element is a spring, and both the power input shaft and the clamping assembly are provided with guide posts, with the two ends of the spring respectively sleeved on the guide posts.
[0020] Preferably, the gripping assembly includes a base and grippers disposed on the base, the second transmission disk is disposed on the base, there are two grippers, the two grippers are driven by a driver disposed in the base, and the grippers are arc-shaped.
[0021] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages:
[0022] By incorporating a connector, after the bottle cap is rotated into position, the first and second drive plates disengage due to the interference between the first and second inclined surfaces, thus preventing damage to the bottle cap caused by over-tightening. This significantly improves the success rate of sealing operations and extends the lifespan of the bottle cap.
[0023] By utilizing an elastic element to disengage the first and second transmission discs at appropriate times, the force applied to the bottle cap during rotation is ensured to be uniform. This prevents sealing failure caused by an overly loose cap and avoids damage caused by an overly tight cap, thereby improving the quality and stability of the seal.
[0024] Compared to traditional sealing machines that require monitoring the number of rotations of the robotic arm, this new structure achieves an automatic anti-overtightening function through the connector design, eliminating the need for additional monitoring equipment and thus reducing the cost of using and maintaining the equipment.
[0025] Because the connector can automatically adapt to the connection between the cap and the bottle body, it eliminates the need for frequent manual adjustments or monitoring, thus improving the production efficiency of the sealing process. At the same time, it reduces production interruptions and rework caused by seal failures or cap damage. Attached Figure Description

[0036] The specific embodiments shown below are intended to describe various configurations of the subject matter of this invention and are not intended to represent the only configuration in which the subject matter of this invention can be practiced. The specific embodiments include detailed descriptions intended to provide a thorough understanding of the subject matter of this invention. However, it will be clear and apparent to those skilled in the art that the subject matter of this invention is not limited to the specific details shown herein and can be practiced without these specific details.
[0037] Understandably, in this document, relational terms such as “first” and “second” are intended to distinguish one entity or operation from another, and are not intended to expressly or imply any actual relationship or order between these entities or operations.
[0038] The terms “comprising,” “including,” or any other variations thereof are intended to cover a non-exclusive inclusion, such that a process, method, article, or apparatus that comprises a list of elements includes not only those elements but also other elements not expressly listed, or elements inherent to such a process, method, article, or apparatus. Without further limitation, an element defined by the phrase “comprising one…” does not exclude the presence of other identical elements in the process, method, article, or apparatus that includes said element.
[0039] Reference Figures 1 to 5 As shown, a seasoning sealing machine structure includes a clamping component 1, which is used to clamp bottle caps;
[0040] Power input shaft 2, which is used to drive the clamping assembly 1 to tighten the clamped bottle cap onto the bottle body;
[0041] The power input shaft 2 is connected to the clamping assembly 1 via connector 3, and connector 3 is used to prevent the bottle cap from being too tightly connected to the bottle body;
[0042] The connector 3 includes a first transmission disk 31 mounted on the power input shaft 2, and a second transmission disk 32 disposed on the clamping assembly 1. The power input shaft 2 transmits power to the clamping assembly 1 through the first transmission disk 31 and the second transmission disk 32. An elastic element 33 is disposed between the first transmission disk 31 and the second transmission disk 32, and the elastic element 33 pushes the first transmission disk 31 and the second transmission disk 32 into contact.
[0043] The first transmission disc 31 is provided with a first inclined surface, and the second transmission disc 32 is provided with a second inclined surface. When the bottle cap and the cap body are connected too tightly, the first inclined surface and the second inclined surface interfere with each other and overcome the elastic force of the elastic element 33, causing the first transmission disc 31 and the second transmission disc 32 to disengage.
[0044] Understandably, since the first transmission disc 31 and the second transmission disc 32 of connector 3 will automatically disengage, there is no need to monitor the number of rotations of the power input shaft 2. Even if there is a certain error between the bottle cap and the bottle body, for example, during the screwing process, if the bottle cap rotates a certain angle or number of turns, it will not cause the bottle cap to be too loose. That is, after the bottle cap and the bottle body are screwed into place, the elastic force of the elastic element 33 is overcome, and the first transmission disc 31 and the second transmission disc 32 will disengage, thus ensuring good connection performance between the bottle body and the bottle cap.
[0045] Understandably, the first inclined surface can be evenly distributed on the first transmission disc 31, and the second inclined surface can be evenly distributed on the second transmission disc 32. When bottle caps requiring different screwing forces are needed, the elastic element 33 can be replaced, thus optimizing the performance of the sealing machine structure.
[0046] In some embodiments, the clamping assembly 1 is provided with a column 11, and the second transmission disk 32 is disposed on the column 11 via a connecting frame 321.
[0047] Reference Figures 1 to 5 As shown, in some embodiments, the column 11 is provided with a connecting plate 12, and the connecting frame 321 is fixed to the connecting plate 12 by threads. The second transmission plate 32 and the connecting frame 321 are an integral structure. The connection plate 12 makes the connecting frame 321 easy to install. At the same time, the connecting plate 12 also has the function of amplifying the output torque of the power input shaft 2, so the power input shaft 2 does not need to input a large force. That is, the prime mover driving the power input shaft 2 can have a smaller power. The prime mover can be an electric motor or an air pump, etc.
[0048] In some embodiments, the connecting bracket 321 is provided with a stud, the connecting disc 12 is provided with a through hole for the stud to pass through, and the stud is provided with a nut that mates with the stud.
[0049] By using studs and nuts to connect the connecting frame 321 to the connecting plate 12, the first transmission plate 31 and the second transmission plate 32 are easy to assemble.
[0050] In some embodiments, the second inclined surface is disposed on the lower end surface of the second transmission disk 32, the first inclined surface is disposed on the upper end surface of the first transmission disk 31, and the second transmission disk 32 is provided with a through hole through which the power input shaft 2 passes.
[0051] In some embodiments, the second transmission disk 32 is provided with a second protruding tooth 322, the second protruding tooth 322 and the second transmission disk 32 are integrally formed, and the side of the second protruding tooth 322 forms the second inclined surface.
[0052] In some embodiments, the first transmission disk 31 is provided with a first protruding tooth 311, the first protruding tooth 311 and the first transmission disk 31 are integrally formed, and the side of the first protruding tooth 311 forms the first inclined surface.
[0053] In some embodiments, the first transmission disk 31 and the power input shaft 2 are an integral structure. The cross-sectional shape of the power input shaft 2 may be polygonal.
[0054] In some embodiments, the elastic element 33 is a spring, and both the power input shaft 2 and the clamping assembly 1 are provided with guide posts, with the two ends of the spring respectively sleeved on the guide posts.
[0055] Reference Figures 1 to 5 As shown, in some embodiments, the gripping assembly 1 includes a base 13 and grippers 131 disposed on the base 13, the second transmission disk 32 is disposed on the base 13, there are two grippers 131, the two grippers 131 are driven by a driver disposed in the base 13, and the grippers 131 are arc-shaped.
[0056] The gripper 131 is arc-shaped, and the gripper 131 has a larger contact area with the bottle cap, thus making the bottle cap less likely to be damaged.
[0057] Understandably, the gripper 131 can be cylinder-driven. That is, the actuator can be a cylinder.
[0058] The above describes the subject matter technical solution of this utility model and its corresponding details. It is understood that the above description is only some implementation schemes of the subject matter technical solution of this utility model, and some details may be omitted in the specific implementation.
[0059] Furthermore, in some embodiments of the above utility model, multiple embodiments may be combined; however, due to space limitations, all such combinations will not be listed here.

Obviously, these details are still within the scope of the subject matter technical solution of this utility model without departing from it.
