Detailed Implementation
[0027] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0028] One embodiment of this utility model is as follows: Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the circular track conveyor component 11 consists of a slide rail 111 mounted on a platform and a sliding trolley 112. A fixing fixture for securing packaging materials is mounted on the top of the sliding trolley 112. An automatic bottle pick-and-place component 20, perpendicular to the conveying direction, is installed in front of the circular track conveyor component 11. Along the conveying direction, the circular track conveyor component 11 also sequentially includes a filling component 30, an automatic pump capping component 40, a servo capping component 50, an automatic pick-and-place outer cover component 60, a pressing outer cover component 70, and an automatic bottle removal component 80. A bottle detection photoelectric sensor 16 and a blow-suction component 90 are provided between the automatic bottle pick-and-place component 20 and the filling component 30. The automatic bottle pick-and-place component 20 and the automatic pump capping component 40 are... The pump cap assembly 40, the automatic pick-and-place outer cover assembly 60, and the automatic bottle removal assembly 80 are all equipped with a first robotic arm assembly 12 on the side near the circular track conveyor assembly 11. The servo capping assembly 50 is equipped with a second robotic arm assembly 13 on the side near the circular track conveyor assembly 11. The self-priming magnetic pump controlled by the servo achieves quantitative filling of liquid cosmetics. The circular track conveyor assembly and the automatic bottle pick-and-place assembly, filling assembly, automatic pump cap retrieval assembly, servo capping assembly, automatic pick-and-place outer cover assembly, outer cover pressing assembly, and automatic bottle removal assembly arranged around the conveyor line make the equipment structure more compact and occupy less space. At the same time, a secondary positioning mechanism is set up to improve positioning accuracy.
[0029] The first robotic arm component 12 includes a rotary cylinder 121 and a pneumatic gripper 122 installed at the output end of the rotary cylinder 121. The top of the rotary cylinder 121 is provided with a lifting module 123 installed on the table and a transverse module 124 installed on the lifting module 123. The rotary cylinder 121 is installed on the transverse module 124 through a connecting plate. The moving direction of the transverse module 124 is set perpendicular to the conveying direction. After grabbing the material on the feeding component, it rotates 90° and places it on the fixed fixture at the corresponding work station.
[0030] like Figure 5 As shown, the filling component 30 is located at the arc corner of the circular track conveyor component 11. It includes a servo motor 31 at the top and a high-precision magnetic pump 32. The high-precision magnetic pump 32 is connected to the syringe filling head 33 below via an infusion tube. A lifting mechanism 34 is connected to the rear of the syringe filling head 33. The lifting mechanism 34 includes a servo pulley assembly located below the platform. The movable part of the lifting mechanism is fixed to the surface of the pulley to complete the lifting action. Figure 6As shown, an anti-collision bottle mouth device 35 is provided on the T-shaped plate used to install the syringe filling head 33, which overlaps the syringe filling head 33 mounting block. A photoelectric detection switch 351 is installed on the side of the anti-collision bottle mouth device 35 to protect the syringe filling head from collision. If the packaging material position is loose, the syringe filling head will be pushed up during the filling process, and the anti-collision bottle mouth device will rotate. A detection plate is installed at its end, and a sensor mounting plate is provided on the outer side of the corresponding position of the detection plate. A detection hole is opened on the sensor mounting plate. When the anti-collision bottle mouth device drives the detection plate to rotate, the sensor generates a signal to determine the collision alarm and stop the machine.
[0031] Optionally, a positioning block 331 is installed on the bottom filling port of the syringe filling head 33. The positioning block 331 has a positioning groove that matches the packaging material, which is used to fix the packaging bottle and ensure the stability of the filling process.
[0032] The automatic bottle pick-and-place component 20, the automatic pump cap pick-and-place component 40, and the automatic outer cover pick-and-place component 60 are equipped with a feeding component 14 at their respective workstations.

A U-shaped limit plate 144 is installed on the surface of the top material plate 143. When the material at the front of the feeding channel reaches the top material plate, the top material cylinder rises to lift the material, making it easier for the first mechanical claw component to grasp it. The corresponding feeding component places the corresponding material. The operating principle is the same. For example, the feeding component at the position of the automatic bottle pick-and-place component places the bottle, the feeding component at the position of the automatic pump cap pick-and-place component places the pump cap, and the feeding component at the position of the automatic outer cover pick-and-place component places the outer cover.
[0033] The servo capping component 50 includes a servo lifting mechanism 51 and a second robotic arm component 13 mounted on the servo lifting mechanism 51.

The circular track conveyor component 11 and the inner and outer sides of the servo capping component 50 are respectively provided with clamping plate mechanisms 52 to clamp the packaging material. The motor drives the lifting to a specified height, and the second robotic arm component grabs the cap. The servo motor outputs torque to achieve a suitable torque, so that the cap is tightened.
[0034] The outer cover component 70 includes a manual lifting mechanism 71. A pressing cylinder 72 is installed on the top of the movable plate of the manual lifting mechanism 71. A pressing head 73 is installed at the output end of the pressing cylinder 72. A groove for positioning the outer cover is provided at the bottom of the pressing head 73.
[0035] A positioning component 15 is provided on the outer side of the circular track conveyor component 11 directly below the automatic bottle picking and placing component 20, filling component 30, servo capping component 50 and outer cover pressing component 70. The positioning component 15 includes a vertically installed positioning cylinder 151 and a positioning block 152 installed at the output end of the positioning cylinder 151. The top of the positioning block 152 is provided with an arc-shaped positioning groove for engaging the positioning bolts on the outer side of the slide trolley 112. A photoelectric switch 153 is installed on the side of the positioning cylinder 151.
[0036] The working principle of this embodiment is as follows: The packaging material is placed on a servo belt conveyor and moves to a designated position. A first robotic arm controlled by a servo grips the material and places it into a fixed fixture. The circular track conveyor moves to the next process, the blowing and suction station, for cleaning. After cleaning, it moves to the next process, the filling station. A servo lifting and bottle fixing device fixes the packaging material, and a syringe is inserted. A high-precision magnetic pump controls the filling volume and injects the material into the packaging material through the syringe to achieve the filling effect. The next process is the automatic pump cap removal device. The cap is transported to the cap holder by a conveyor track. A cylinder lifts the first robotic arm to grip the cap. The servo descends to the bottle mouth position and places the cap into the bottle. The next process is the servo capping station. A motor drives the lifting and lowering device to a designated height. A second robotic arm grips the cap, and the servo motor outputs torque to achieve the appropriate torque, tightening the cap. The next process is the automatic bottle removal station. A cylinder descends to a designated position, and the robotic arm grips the finished product and moves it laterally to place the finished packaging material onto the worktable. One work cycle ends.
