[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of aluminum can mouth chamfering technology, specifically an aluminum can mouth chamfering mechanism. Background Technology

[0002] Chamfering refers to the process of cutting the edges of a workpiece into a bevel. Chamfering is used to remove burrs generated during manufacturing and to facilitate assembly. In the production of aluminum cans, the opening of the can needs to be chamfered.

[0003] A search revealed that patent CN221791277U discloses a chamfering mechanism suitable for aluminum can openings;

[0004] Analysis of the above technical solutions reveals that while they can clean impurities inside the aluminum can, during the chamfering process, impurities generated at the can opening continuously fall into the chamfering head and splatter everywhere as the head rotates, making them difficult to clean. Therefore, we provide an aluminum can opening chamfering mechanism to solve these problems. Utility Model Content

[0005] To address the problems mentioned in the background section, this utility model provides a chamfering mechanism for aluminum can openings.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: an aluminum can mouth chamfering mechanism, comprising a base, a support column fixedly connected to the base, a positioning mechanism for fixing the aluminum can provided at the top of the support column, a conical cylinder slidably sleeved on the surface of the positioning mechanism of the support column, a plurality of columns fixedly connected to the conical cylinder, a chamfering wheel sleeved on the outer side of the conical cylinder, and the chamfering wheel fixedly connected to the top of each column, and a drive mechanism for lifting and rotating the conical cylinder and a material blocking mechanism for collecting debris provided on the base.

[0007] Preferably, the positioning mechanism includes an installation cavity located in the middle of a support column. The support column has slots on both sides of its top end. A sliding plate is slidably disposed within the installation cavity. An inverted U-shaped plate is fixedly connected to the top end of the sliding plate. The two bottom ends of the inverted U-shaped plate slide into the two slots and are hinged to connecting rods. Swing plates are hinged to the inner walls of the two slots. The bottom ends of the two connecting rods are hinged to the two swing plates. A rubber block is fixedly connected to one end of each swing plate. A cylinder is installed at the bottom end of the support column, and the telescopic end of the cylinder extends into the installation cavity and connects to the bottom end of the sliding plate.

[0008] Preferably, the driving mechanism includes a fixed cylinder, which is fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the conical cylinder and sleeved on the surface of the support column. A first gear is fixedly connected to the surface of the fixed cylinder and a top plate is rotatably sleeved thereon. A motor is installed on the top plate, and a second gear meshing with the first gear is fixedly connected to the output end of the motor. An electric push rod is installed on the base, and the telescopic end of the electric push rod is fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the top plate.

[0009] Preferably, the material blocking mechanism includes two opposing semi-circular material collection frames, with the two adjacent ends of the two semi-circular material collection frames being attracted to each other by magnetic plates, and a protective cover being movably installed on each of the two semi-circular material collection frames.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0014] This invention, through the coordinated arrangement of a support column, positioning mechanism, conical cylinder, chamfering wheel, drive mechanism, and material blocking mechanism, allows aluminum cans to be placed upside down on the support column with the can opening facing downwards. The positioning mechanism then secures the can to the support column, preventing it from moving. The drive mechanism then rotates and raises the conical cylinder until the chamfering wheel completes the chamfering of the can opening. During this process, the chamfering debris does not accumulate on the conical cylinder but slides down the inclined surface. Due to the rotation of the conical cylinder, the debris is contained by two protective covers, preventing it from scattering, and ultimately falls into two semi-circular collection frames for unified handling, ensuring a clean working environment.

[0024] 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.

[0025] like Figure 1-8As shown, this embodiment proposes an aluminum can mouth chamfering mechanism, including a base 1, a support column 9 fixedly connected to the base 1, a positioning mechanism for fixing the aluminum can at the top of the support column 9, a conical cylinder 5 slidably sleeved on the surface of the positioning mechanism on the support column 9, a plurality of columns 8 fixedly connected to the conical cylinder 5, a chamfering wheel 7 sleeved on the outer side of the conical cylinder 5, and the chamfering wheel 7 fixedly connected to the top of each column 8, the base 1 is provided with a drive mechanism for lifting and rotating the conical cylinder 5 and a baffle mechanism for collecting debris. With the above structure, the fixing of the aluminum can and the chamfering mechanism of the aluminum can mouth are both integrated, which is not only compact in structure, but also easy to use. For greater convenience, the specific operation involves first placing the aluminum can upside down on the support column 9 with the opening facing downwards. Then, the positioning mechanism is used to fix the aluminum can on the support column 9 to prevent it from moving. Subsequently, the drive mechanism can be used to rotate and raise the conical cylinder 5 until the chamfering wheel 7 completes the chamfering of the aluminum can opening. During this process, the debris generated by chamfering will be collected and contained by the material blocking mechanism to prevent debris from flying everywhere and to ensure the working environment. The machinery, parts and equipment in this device all adopt conventional models in the existing technology, and the circuit connection adopts conventional connection methods in the existing technology, which will not be described in detail here.

[0026] like Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 6 and Figure 8 As shown, the positioning mechanism includes a mounting cavity 17, which is located in the middle of the support column 9. Slots 18 are provided on both sides of the top of the support column 9. A sliding plate 16 is slidably disposed within the mounting cavity 17. An inverted U-shaped plate 22 is fixedly connected to the top of the sliding plate 16. The two bottom ends of the inverted U-shaped plate 22 slide into the two slots 18 and are hinged to connecting rods 13. Swinging plates 12 are hinged to the inner walls of the two slots 18. The bottom ends of the two connecting rods 13 are hinged to the two swinging plates 12. A rubber block 11 is fixedly connected to one end of each swinging plate 12. A cylinder 15 is installed at the bottom of the support column 9. The telescopic end of the cylinder 15 extends into the mounting cavity 17 and connects to the bottom end of the sliding plate 16. With the above structure, when the aluminum can... After being placed at the top of the support column 9, the operation of the cylinder 15 can be used to pull the sliding plate 16 and the inverted U-plate 22 downwards, thereby causing the two connecting rods 13 to push the two swing plates 12 downwards. This allows the two rubber blocks 11 to press and fix against the inner wall of the aluminum can. Since the rubber blocks 11 are made of rubber, the aluminum can will not swing arbitrarily on the support column 9, thus ensuring the normal chamfering of the aluminum can opening. After the aluminum can is chamfered, simply use the reverse rotation of the cylinder 15 to push the sliding plate 16 and the inverted U-plate 22 upwards, thereby causing the two connecting rods 13 to pull the two swing plates 12 upwards, causing the two rubber blocks 11 to move away from the inner wall of the aluminum can, thus releasing the fixation on the aluminum can and allowing the aluminum can to be properly removed from the support column 9.

[0027] like Figure 3 and Figure 7 As shown, the drive mechanism includes a fixed cylinder 23, which is fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the conical cylinder 5 and sleeved on the surface of the support column 9. A first gear 19 is fixedly connected to the surface of the fixed cylinder 23, and a top plate 6 is rotatably sleeved thereon. A motor 4 is mounted on the top plate 6, and a second gear 20 meshing with the first gear 19 is fixedly connected to the output end of the motor 4. An electric push rod 14 is mounted on the base 1, and the telescopic end of the electric push rod 14 is fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the top plate 6. Specifically, two electric push rods 14 can be set, so that the two electric push rods 14 are located on both sides of the cylinder 15, thereby increasing the stability of the conical cylinder 5 during lifting and sliding. In addition, the two electric push rods 14 operate synchronously through a synchronous controller. The synchronous controller is currently... Mature technologies are available and will not be detailed here. With the above-described structure, the top plate 6 and the conical cylinder 5 can be raised using two electric push rods 14, thereby controlling the chamfering wheel 7 to contact the aluminum can opening. Simultaneously, with the motor 4 running, the second gear 20 shifts the first gear 19, causing the chamfering wheel 7 to rotate in the middle of the top plate 6. The conical cylinder 5, the column 8, and the chamfering wheel 7 will also rotate together, thus chamfering the aluminum can opening. Since the top plate 6 is connected to the telescopic end of the electric push rod 14, the top plate 6 will not rotate, thus ensuring that the fixed cylinder 23 can rotate normally within the top plate 6. It is worth noting that the electrical equipment control methods described above are all existing mature technologies, and therefore will not be detailed here.

[0028] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, the material blocking mechanism includes two opposing semi-circular collecting frames 3. The two adjacent ends of the two semi-circular collecting frames 3 are attracted by magnetic plates. Protective covers 2 are movably installed on both semi-circular collecting frames 3. With the setting of the semi-circular collecting frames 3 and the protective covers 2, when the two semi-circular collecting frames 3 are merged on the base 1, the two semi-circular collecting frames 3 are made into a circular shape. The protective covers 2 can block the aluminum can when it is beveled, preventing the debris from flying everywhere, thereby ensuring that the debris can be uniformly concentrated in the two semi-circular collecting frames 3, and ensuring the environment of the work station.

[0029] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, each of the two semicircular collection frames 3 has several insertion holes, and the bottom surfaces of the two protective covers 2 are fixed with several insertion blocks. The protective covers 2 are inserted into the corresponding insertion holes on the semicircular collection frames 3 through the insertion blocks. With the above structure, the protective covers 2 can be easily installed and removed from the semicircular collection frames 3. When the protective covers 2 need to be removed, they can be pulled directly off the semicircular collection frames 3 to facilitate the dumping and cleaning of the debris inside the semicircular collection frames 3.

[0030] like Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 6As shown, a support plate 10 is fixedly connected to the top of the support column 9. The support plate 10 ensures the stability of the aluminum can when it is placed, and provides stable support to the inner top wall of the aluminum can. It also helps to fix the aluminum can in the future.

[0031] like Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 7 As shown, an extension cover 21 is fixed to the bottom side of the conical cylinder 5. With the extension cover 21, debris can be prevented from splashing to the middle of the bottom surface of the conical cylinder 5, thereby ensuring that the debris can be collected into the semi-circular collection frame 3. Moreover, the extension cover 21 can also protect the rotating parts on the bottom surface of the conical cylinder 5.

[0032] The working principle and usage process of this utility model are as follows: First, the aluminum can is placed directly on the support column 9 and supported by the support plate 10. Then, the operation of the cylinder 15 pulls the sliding plate 16 and the inverted U-shaped plate 22 downward, thereby causing the two connecting rods 13 to push the two swing plates 12 downward, so that the two rubber blocks 11 can be pressed and fixed against the inner wall of the aluminum can. Then, the two electric push rods 14 drive the top plate 6 and the conical cylinder 5 to rise, controlling the chamfering wheel 7 to contact the opening of the aluminum can. Then, the motor 4 is started, causing the second gear 20 to move the first gear 19, so that the chamfering wheel 7 can rotate in the middle of the top plate 6, while the conical cylinder 5 rotates in the middle of the top plate 6. The cylindrical tube 5, column 8, and chamfering wheel 7 will also rotate together to chamfer the aluminum can opening. During this process, the debris generated at the aluminum can opening will be blocked by two protective covers 2, so it will not fly around. It will eventually be collected by two semi-circular collection frames 3 for subsequent unified processing. After the aluminum can is chamfered, the sliding plate 16 and the U-shaped plate 22 will be pushed upward by the reverse rotation of the cylinder 15. This will cause the two connecting rods 13 to pull the two swing plates 12 upward, so that the two rubber blocks 11 are away from the inner wall of the aluminum can, thereby releasing the fixation of the aluminum can and allowing the aluminum can to be properly removed from the support column 9.

[0033] In this utility model, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "connection," "fixing," etc., should be interpreted broadly. For example, "fixing" can mean a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral part; it can mean a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can mean a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; it can mean the internal communication of two components or the interaction between two components, unless otherwise explicitly limited. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model according to the specific circumstances. Content not described in detail in this specification belongs to the prior art known to those skilled in the art.
