Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of cartoning machine technology, specifically to a oscillating feeding mechanism for a cartoning machine. Background Technology

[0002] Cartoning machines play a crucial role in pharmaceutical packaging, especially in automated pharmaceutical packaging. Their primary function is to precisely feed blister packs into cartons, ensuring the integrity, accuracy, and safety of the packaging. The typical workflow of a cartoning machine involves conveying blister packs via a conveyor belt to a feeding hopper, which then accurately feeds the blister packs to the cartoning machine's conveyor grid. The grid then guides the blister packs into the cartoning mechanism, ultimately completing the cartoning process.

[0003] Most existing feeding bin designs employ a vertical free-fall method for dispensing blister packs. While this method is structurally simple, it has significant drawbacks. During the dispensing process, the blister packs fall directly onto the conveyor grid of the cartoning machine, which can easily lead to inaccurate placement, missing the grid, or even stacking or jamming, resulting in disrupted conveying. Furthermore, due to differences in the weight, material, and shape of the blister packs, their movement speed and trajectory during dispensing are difficult to fully control, easily leading to uneven or misaligned drops, which in turn affects the accuracy and efficiency of the cartoning process.

[0004] With the continuous development of pharmaceutical packaging automation technology, production requirements are becoming increasingly stringent. Traditional free-fall feeding methods cannot meet the demands for precision and flexibility in blister pack feeding. Under different production line operating conditions, variations in conveyor speed directly affect blister pack feeding. Traditional feeding methods cannot be flexibly adjusted according to different conveyor speeds, leading to reduced production efficiency of cartoning machines and potentially affecting the pass rate of pharmaceutical packaging.

[0005] Therefore, based on the above-mentioned technical problems, it is necessary for those skilled in the art to develop a oscillating feeding mechanism for a cartoning machine. Utility Model Content

[0006] The purpose of this invention is to provide a oscillating feeding mechanism for a cartoning machine to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0007] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:

[0008] A technical solution for a oscillating feeding mechanism of a cartoning machine includes: a base;

[0009] A reciprocating drive mechanism, mounted on a base, includes a reciprocating swing plate and a horizontal guide rod for driving its movement.

[0010] The swing feeding seat is connected to the reciprocating drive mechanism. It has a feeding channel and a swing outlet channel inside, and upper swing arm and lower swing arm are respectively provided on both sides. The inner side of the upper swing arm is connected to the upper swing inner plate, and the inner side of the lower swing arm is connected to the lower swing inner plate.

[0011] The position adjustment mechanism includes a front and rear adjustment knob, a front and rear moving screw linked to the knob, and front and rear guide rods mounted on the machine base; the swing feeding seat achieves front and rear position adjustment through the cooperation of the front and rear guide rods and the front and rear moving screws.

[0012] As a preferred technical solution, the reciprocating drive mechanism drives the oscillating feeding seat to oscillate periodically through the reciprocating oscillating plate, so that after the medicine plate enters through the feeding channel, it is accurately guided to the conveying grid of the cartoning machine by the oscillating outlet channel.

[0013] As a preferred technical solution, the upper swing arm and the lower swing arm are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the swing feeding seat, and a medicine plate guide path is formed by the upper swing inner plate and the lower swing inner plate.

[0014] As a preferred technical solution, the position adjustment mechanism drives the front and rear moving screw to rotate by rotating the front and rear adjustment knob, thereby driving the swinging unloading seat to move along the front and rear guide rods to adapt to the unloading position requirements under different conveying speeds.

[0015] As a preferred technical solution, the horizontal guide rod of the swing plate is set horizontally to limit the swing trajectory of the reciprocating swing plate and ensure the motion stability of the swing unloading seat.

[0016] As a preferred technical solution, the exit direction of the swing outlet channel is coordinated and matched with the movement direction of the cartoning machine conveyor grid to ensure that the blister packs fall into the conveyor grid in a controlled trajectory.

[0017] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0018] This invention relates to a oscillating feeding mechanism for a cartoning machine. A reciprocating drive mechanism drives the oscillating feeding seat to oscillate periodically, ensuring that after entering the feeding bin, the blister packs are precisely guided through the feeding channel and then through the oscillating outlet channel to the conveyor grid of the cartoning machine. Compared to the traditional free-fall feeding method, this oscillating feeding method significantly improves the accuracy and flexibility of blister pack feeding. By adjusting the oscillation amplitude and frequency of the oscillating feeding seat, it can adapt to the operating conditions of different production lines, ensuring that the blister packs fall accurately and smoothly onto the conveyor grid at different conveying speeds. This avoids problems such as blister pack stacking, jamming, or misalignment, thereby improving the production efficiency of the cartoning machine and the pass rate of drug packaging.

[0023] The features and exemplary embodiments of various aspects of this utility model will now be described in detail. To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the following description, in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments, will provide a further detailed description. For those skilled in the art, this utility model can be implemented without some of these specific details. The following description of the embodiments is merely intended to provide a better understanding of this utility model by illustrating examples.

[0024] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, this utility model provides a technical solution for a oscillating feeding mechanism for a cartoning machine: it includes a base 1, which serves as the basic support structure for the entire feeding mechanism and is installed at an appropriate position on the cartoning machine. The base 1 has mounting holes for fixing the reciprocating drive mechanism 2 and the oscillating feeding seat 3.

[0025] The reciprocating drive mechanism 2 includes a reciprocating swing plate 21 and a swing plate horizontal guide rod 22. The reciprocating swing plate 21 achieves horizontal reciprocating swing through the constraint of the swing plate horizontal guide rod 22. The drive mechanism can be pneumatic, electric, or hydraulic, selected according to actual needs. The movement of the reciprocating swing plate 21 drives the swing feeding seat 3 to swing periodically, thereby realizing the swing feeding of the medicine plate.

[0026] The oscillating feeder 3 is connected to the reciprocating drive mechanism 2, and has an internal feed channel 31 and an oscillating outlet channel 35. An upper oscillating arm 32 and a lower oscillating arm 33 are respectively provided on both sides of the oscillating feeder 3. The inner side of the upper oscillating arm 32 is connected to the upper oscillating inner plate 321, and the inner side of the lower oscillating arm 33 is connected to the lower oscillating inner plate 331. The upper oscillating inner plate 321 and the lower oscillating inner plate 331 together form the guide path for the medicine plate, ensuring that the medicine plate moves along a predetermined trajectory during the oscillation process.

[0027] The position adjustment mechanism includes a front-to-back adjustment knob 41, a front-to-back moving screw 42 linked to the knob, and a front-to-back guide rod 43 mounted on the base 1. The swinging unloading seat 3, through the cooperation of the front-to-back guide rod 43 and the front-to-back moving screw 42, achieves front-to-back position adjustment. By rotating the front-to-back adjustment knob 41, the front-to-back moving screw 42 can be driven to rotate, thereby pushing the swinging unloading seat 3 to move along the front-to-back guide rod 43 to adapt to the unloading position requirements at different conveying speeds.

[0028] The horizontal guide rod 22 of the swing plate is set horizontally to limit the swing trajectory of the reciprocating swing plate 21 and ensure the movement stability of the swing unloading seat 3. The outlet direction of the swing outlet channel 35 is coordinated and matched with the movement direction of the cartoning machine conveying grid to ensure that the medicine blister packs fall into the conveying grid along a controlled trajectory.

[0029] In practical applications, the swing amplitude and frequency of the reciprocating drive mechanism 2 can be adjusted according to the conveying speed of the cartoning machine and the characteristics of the blister packs to achieve the best feeding effect. The swing amplitude and frequency of the swing feeding seat 3 can be adjusted by changing the control parameters of the drive mechanism, such as changing the air pressure of the cylinder, the speed of the motor, or the pressure of the hydraulic system.

[0030] In summary, the oscillating feeding mechanism of this cartoning machine uses a reciprocating drive mechanism 2 to drive the oscillating feeding seat 3 to oscillate periodically. This allows the blister packs to enter the feeding hopper, pass through the feeding channel 31, and then be precisely guided to the conveying grid of the cartoning machine via the oscillating outlet channel 35. Compared with the traditional free-fall feeding method, this oscillating feeding method significantly improves the accuracy and flexibility of blister pack feeding. By adjusting the oscillation amplitude and frequency of the oscillating feeding seat 3, it can adapt to the operating conditions of different production lines, ensuring that the blister packs fall accurately and smoothly to the conveying grid at different conveying speeds. This avoids problems such as blister pack stacking, jamming, or misalignment, thereby improving the production efficiency of the cartoning machine and the pass rate of drug packaging.
