[0026] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.

[0027] Reference Figures 1-4 A bottle cap forming and feeding mechanism includes a top plate 1, with a ring seat 2 fixedly connected to one end of the top plate 1. A disassembly ring 3 is disposed inside the ring seat 2, cooperating with the ring seat 2 to prevent the disassembly ring 3 from detaching from the ring seat 2 when a fan blade 43 rotates. A cross plate 4 is fixedly connected to the top of the disassembly ring 3, and a rotating rod 42 is rotatably connected to the bottom of the cross plate 4. A fan blade 43 is fixedly connected to the rotating rod 42, which is driven to rotate by a motor 41 to generate a directional airflow, thereby directionally cooling the bottle cap and allowing it to smoothly detach from the mold. Simultaneously, it effectively removes debris or residue from the surface of the bottle cap, improving the cleanliness of the finished product and reducing subsequent cleaning processes. A motor 41 for driving the rotating rod 42 is fixedly connected to the top of the cross plate 4.

[0028] Also includes:

[0029] The disassembly and assembly component is located on the disassembly and assembly ring 3, which allows workers to quickly disassemble and assemble the ring 3 relative to the ring seat 2. This component allows workers to remove the disassembly and assembly ring 3 and the fan blade 43 simultaneously for cleaning, ensuring stable rotation of the fan blade 43 and the generation of directional airflow, and also extending the service life of the fan blade 43 to some extent.

[0030] The assembly / disassembly assembly includes a sliding opening 31 on the assembly / disassembly ring 3. A transmission plate 34 is horizontally slidably connected within the sliding opening 31. The transmission plate 34 slides horizontally along the sliding opening 31, causing the insertion rod 35 to extend and retract. A rectangular rod 32 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the transmission plate 34 relative to the cross plate 4, and the rectangular rod 32 and the cross plate 4 are horizontally slidably connected. A spring 33 is sleeved on the rectangular rod 32, providing a stable rebound force to ensure that the insertion rod 35 is tightly locked into the slot 36 of the ring seat 2, preventing loosening during operation. Both ends of the spring 33 are fixedly connected to the cross plate 4 and the transmission plate 34, respectively. The insertion rod 35 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the transmission plate 34 away from the cross plate 4, and the insertion rod 35 is horizontally inserted into the ring seat 2.

[0031] The inner vertical wall of the ring seat 2 is provided with a slot 36 to facilitate the horizontal insertion of the insertion rod 35.

[0032] The bottom of the ring seat 2 is equipped with a clamping assembly for holding bottle caps. The clamping assembly includes a pair of connecting ears 25 fixedly connected to the bottom of the ring seat 2. The two connecting ears 25 are rotatably connected to the same bidirectional lead screw 26 on opposite sidewalls. The bidirectional lead screw 26, in conjunction with a motor 27, causes the two moving plates 21 to slide smoothly along the slide bar 28, ensuring symmetrical clamping of the arc plate 22 and preventing deformation or displacement of the bottle cap. A pair of moving plates 21 are threadedly connected to the bidirectional lead screw 26. An anti-detachment rod 23 slides horizontally through the moving plates 21. An anti-detachment ring 24 is threadedly connected to the anti-detachment rod 23. The anti-detachment rod 23 and the anti-detachment ring 24 facilitate the selection of a suitable arc plate 22 according to the actual size and dimensions of the bottle cap, thereby ensuring a precise fit and clamping between the arc plate 22 and the bottle cap. Arc plates 22 are fixedly connected to opposite ends of the two anti-detachment rods 23. A motor 27 for driving the bidirectional lead screw 26 is fixedly connected to the connecting ears 25.

[0033] The same slide rod 28 is fixedly connected to the opposite sidewalls of the two connecting lugs 25, and the moving plate 21 and the slide rod 28 are horizontally slidably connected. The slide rod 28 ensures that the moving plate 21 can move stably horizontally along the axis of the bidirectional lead screw 26.

[0034] A base 5 is located below the top plate 1. An electric telescopic rod 6 is rotatably connected to the top of the base 5. The output end of the electric telescopic rod 6 is fixedly connected to the top plate 1. A motor 7 for driving the electric telescopic rod 6 to rotate is fixedly connected to the base 5. The electric telescopic rod 6 and the motor 7 provide stable lifting and rotation power, ensuring smooth lifting and rotation of the top plate 1, and accurate positioning to achieve precise picking and placing of the formed bottle caps.

[0035] The functional principle of this utility model can be explained through the following operation methods:

[0036] During the process of removing the formed bottle cap, firstly, the motor 37 is started to drive the electric telescopic rod 6 to rotate. Under the action of the electric telescopic rod 6, the top plate 1 and the ring seat 2 are moved as a whole to the bottle cap position, so that the two arc plates 22 are located on both sides of the bottle cap.

[0037] When clamping the bottle cap, motor 27 drives the bidirectional lead screw 26 to rotate, which drives the two moving plates 21 to slide towards each other along the slide bar 28, so that the arc plate 22 closes and clamps the bottle cap.

[0038] During the material handling process, motor 41 drives fan blade 43 to rotate through rotating rod 42, forming airflow to carry away the heat of bottle cap, so that bottle cap is cooled down quickly, making it easier for bottle cap to fall off the mold smoothly;

[0039] After cooling down for a period of time, the electric telescopic rod 6 extends to remove the bottle cap from the mold. Driven by motor 3 7, the electric telescopic rod 6 rotates, thereby transferring the bottle cap that has been clamped and fixed to the designated work station. Motor 1 27 reverses to release the bottle cap.

[0040] When it is necessary to replace the disassembly ring 3, press the transmission plate 34 to disengage the insertion rod 35 from the slot 36 of the ring seat 2. The spring 33 is compressed and contracted. At this time, the disassembly ring 3 and its accessories can be taken out upwards. When installing, align the insertion rod 35 with the ring seat 2 and press it. Wait for the spring 33 to rebound so that the insertion rod 35 can be inserted into the slot 36 to complete the fixation.

[0041] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or changes made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model, based on the technical solution and the inventive concept of the present utility model, should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
