[0002] Cup sealing machines are commonly used equipment in milk tea shops and beverage shops. Milk tea sealing machines can be divided into manual and automatic types. Cup sealing machines need to be used in conjunction with sealing film. They are suitable for sealing cups, plastic cups, plastic bowls, paper cups, and paper bowls. Cup sealing machines are suitable for automatic filling and capping of cup-shaped food and beverages such as milk tea, rice wine, juice, soy milk, jelly, milk, ice cream, and snacks. They have a wide range of uses and can be seen in milk tea shops and beverage shops.

[0003] Most cup sealing machines used in milk tea shops are manually operated. During operation, the operator pushes a slide containing the milk tea cup into the sealing machine. Then, the user manually rotates the sealing handle to seal the plastic or paper cup containing the milk tea.

[0004] Because this type of cup sealing machine lacks an automatic and fast sealing function, it cannot achieve efficient and convenient sealing operations. Therefore, in practical applications, it often causes a lot of inconvenience to users, affecting work efficiency and customer experience.

[0005] Therefore, we propose a stable cup sealing machine to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0029] 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.

[0030] Example

[0031] like Figure 1-4 As shown in the figure, a stable cup sealing machine according to one embodiment of the present invention includes a driving device 1, a rotating structure 2 provided at the moving point of the driving device 1, a sealing device 3 provided above the driving device 1, and a control panel 4 provided at the side end of the driving device 1.

[0032] The control panel 4 allows input of preset program commands to control the drive device 1, sealing device 3, and rotating structure 2 to operate in a coordinated manner.

[0033] The driving device 1 includes a driving platform 101, and a driving reducer 103 is fixedly installed inside the driving platform 101. The movable end of the driving reducer 103 is connected to a first helical gear 104, and the other end of the first helical gear 104 is engaged with a second helical gear 105. The top end of the second helical gear 105 extends to the top of the driving platform 101 and is fixedly installed with a connecting block 106.

[0034] The drive reducer 103 in the drive device 1 can drive the first helical gear 104 to rotate. The first helical gear 104 drives the second helical gear 105 to rotate synchronously through meshing. Then, the rotating structure 2 is driven to rotate through the connecting block 106. The operation is simple and the operation is stable.

[0035] Furthermore, the inspection cover 102 at the opening of the drive unit 101 facilitates the inspection and maintenance of internal components, ensuring the long-term stable operation of the equipment. Meanwhile, the first helical gear 104 and the second helical gear 105 are rotatably connected to the inner wall of the drive unit 101 via bearings, reducing friction between components and improving the smoothness and efficiency of rotation. The guide ramp 107 at the top of the drive unit 101, with its sloping design on both its front and rear sides, facilitates the guidance and positioning of the cups during rotation, further enhancing the accuracy and stability of the sealing process.

[0036] like Figure 2 As shown, in some embodiments, a maintenance cover 102 is provided at the opening of the drive platform 101, and the side end of the maintenance cover 102 is movably engaged with the opening of the drive platform 101.

[0037] Specifically, the inspection cover 102 not only facilitates the inspection and maintenance of the drive unit 101, but its movable snap-fit ​​design also ensures the stability of the cover, preventing safety hazards caused by accidental opening. When maintenance or replacement of the drive reducer 103, the first helical gear 104, or the second helical gear 105 is required, operators can easily open the inspection cover 102 to perform the operation, improving the maintainability of the equipment.

[0038] like Figure 2 As shown, in some embodiments, the outer sides of the first helical gear 104 and the second helical gear 105 are movably sleeved with mounting bearings, and the first helical gear 104 and the second helical gear 105 are rotatably connected to the inner wall of the drive machine base 101 through the mounting bearings.

[0039] Specifically, mounting bearings are movably sleeved on the outer sides of both the first helical gear 104 and the second helical gear 105. These mounting bearings not only reduce the friction between the first helical gear 104 and the second helical gear 105 during rotation, extending the service life of the components, but also improve the smoothness and precision of rotation, ensuring the stable rotation of the rotating structure 2, thereby guaranteeing the consistency and accuracy of the sealing process.

[0040] like Figure 2 As shown, in some embodiments, a guide block 107 is fixedly installed on the top of the drive platform 101, and the front and rear sides of the guide block 107 are both slopes.

[0041] Specifically, the guide ramp 107 can be used as the starting and ending point of the sealing machine. When the placement port 202 is opposite to the guide ramp 107, the cup can be placed on the top of the guide ramp 107 through the placement port 202, so that the cup is inside the placement port 202 and above the placement port 202. At this time, the drive device 1 drives the rotating structure 2 to rotate, so that the cup can gradually slide down the ramp of the guide ramp 107, thereby achieving the effect of convenient placement.

[0042] Once the cup is sealed, it returns to the guide ramp 107 and gradually rises along the ramp of the guide ramp 107, so that the cup is both inside the placement opening 202 and above the placement opening 202. Then the operator can easily take the sealed cup out of the placement opening 202. The whole process is smooth and efficient.

[0043] like Figure 3 As shown, in some embodiments, the rotating structure 2 includes a rotating disk 201, the center of the bottom end of the rotating disk 201 is fixedly connected to the top end of the connecting block 106, the surface of the rotating disk 201 is provided with a placement opening 202, and a cup collar 203 is movably engaged at the opening of the placement opening 202.

[0044] Specifically, the design of the rotating disk 201 allows the cups to be evenly distributed on its surface, and the stable connection between the connecting block 106 and the drive device 1 ensures the stability of the rotating structure 2 during its rotation.

[0045] The placement opening 202 cleverly provides an independent sealing space for each cup, while the movable locking mechanism of the cup ring 203 not only facilitates the placement and removal of the cup, but also effectively prevents the cup from slipping during rotation, further enhancing the safety of the sealing process.

[0046] like Figure 3As shown, in some embodiments, the placement ports 202 are arranged in a circular array inside the rotating disk 201, and the placement ports 202 in the idle state are movably fitted with a sealing cover.

[0047] Specifically, the circular array arrangement of the placement ports 202 allows the rotating disk 201 to process multiple cups simultaneously, improving the sealing efficiency.

[0048] Each placement port 202 is equipped with a sealing cap. When the cup sealing machine is not in use, the sealing cap can effectively isolate the external environment, thereby protecting the placement port 202.

[0049] like Figure 4 As shown, in some embodiments, the sealing device 3 includes an outer platform 301, the front side of which is movably engaged with a protective shell 302, the inner wall of the protective shell 302 is provided with a hydraulic cylinder 303, the movable end of the hydraulic cylinder 303 is provided with a heat melter 304, and the heat melter 304 extends to the bottom of the protective shell 302.

[0050] Specifically, when the sealing device 3 is in operation, the operator can start the hydraulic cylinder 303 through the control panel 4. The moving end of the hydraulic cylinder 303 drives the heat melter 304 to press down, so that the heat melter 304 comes into close contact with the cup located below it, and seals the mouth of the cup through the heat melting action.

[0051] After sealing is completed, hydraulic cylinder 303 drives heat melter 304 to reset. At this time, rotating structure 2 continues to rotate, rotating the next cup to be sealed to the bottom of sealing device 3, and repeating the above sealing process until all cups are sealed.

[0052] like Figure 4 As shown, in some embodiments, a rear motor 305 is fixedly installed on the back side of the external platform 301, the output shaft of the rear motor 305 extends to the front side of the external platform 301 and is fixedly connected to a take-up shaft 306, a rotating shaft 307 is rotatably connected to the front side of the external platform 301, and a sealing film 308 is wrapped around the surface of the rotating shaft 307.

[0053] Specifically, the rear motor 305 drives the take-up shaft 306 to rotate, and the take-up shaft 306 gradually winds up the sealing film 308 during rotation. At this time, the sealing film 308 on the rotating shaft 307 unfolds accordingly, and after adjustment by the tension roller 309, it maintains appropriate tension to ensure that the sealing film 308 can tightly adhere to the rim of the cup. The continuous supply of the sealing film 308 allows the cup sealing machine to continuously perform sealing operations, improving work efficiency.

[0054] like Figure 4As shown, in some embodiments, a tension roller 309 is rotatably connected to the front side of the external platform 301, and the sealing film 308 passes through the tension roller 309 and is wound onto the surface of the take-up shaft 306.

[0055] Specifically, the tension roller 309 not only effectively adjusts the tension of the sealing film 308 to prevent poor sealing due to excessive or insufficient tension, but also ensures the stability of the sealing film 308 during winding and unwinding, further improving the accuracy and stability of cup sealing.

[0056] like Figure 4 As shown, in some embodiments, an optoelectronic locator 310 is provided on the inner side of the external platform 301, and the optoelectronic locator 310 is located directly below the hot melter 304.

[0057] Specifically, the photoelectric positioner 310 installed inside the external platform 301 plays a crucial role in the cup sealing process. The photoelectric positioner 310 can accurately detect the position of the cup, ensuring that the heat sealer 304 is precisely aligned with the cup opening during sealing, avoiding sealing position deviation and improving the accuracy and aesthetics of the sealing. Simultaneously, the real-time monitoring function of the photoelectric positioner 310 can promptly detect and correct deviations during the sealing process, ensuring the consistency and stability of the sealing quality.

[0058] In use, the operator first places the cups to be sealed into the placement openings 202 of the rotating disk 201 and secures them with the cup collars 203. Then, the sealing machine is started via the control panel 4, driving the reducer 103 to rotate the first helical gear 104. The first helical gear 104, through meshing, drives the second helical gear 105 to rotate synchronously, which in turn drives the rotating disk 201 and the cups on it to rotate via the connecting block 106.

[0059] During rotation, when a placement opening 202 rotates to below the sealing device 3, the photoelectric positioner 310 accurately detects the position of the cup and sends a signal to the control panel 4. The control panel 4 then activates the hydraulic cylinder 303. The moving end of the hydraulic cylinder 303 drives the heat melter 304 to quickly press down, making tight contact with and heat-sealing the cup's opening. After sealing, the hydraulic cylinder 303 drives the heat melter 304 to reset, and the rotating disk 201 continues to rotate, rotating the next cup to be sealed to below the sealing device 3, repeating the sealing process.

[0060] Meanwhile, the rear motor 305 continuously drives the take-up shaft 306 to rotate, gradually winding up the sealing film 308 during rotation. The sealing film 308 on the rotating shaft 307 then unfolds and, through adjustment by the tension roller 309, maintains appropriate tension, ensuring that the sealing film 308 adheres tightly to the rim of the cup. The entire sealing process is smooth and efficient, with consistent and stable sealing quality.

[0061] In summary, through the driving device 1 and the sealing device 3, the driving device 1 can drive the rotating structure 2 to rotate, causing the rotating structure 2 to gradually screw the cup into the bottom of the sealing device 3 for sealing. The entire sealing process is mechanized, thus achieving automatic sealing and avoiding manual operation. This improves sealing efficiency, reduces the tedium of manual operation, and increases the overall work progress. At the same time, mechanized operation also ensures the consistency of sealing, effectively guaranteeing the sealing and firmness of each seal.

[0062] It should be noted that the specific models and specifications of the drive reducer 103, hydraulic cylinder 303, hot melter 304, photoelectric positioner 310, and control panel 4 in this stable cup sealing machine need to be selected and determined according to the actual specifications of the device. The specific selection and calculation method adopts the existing technology in this field, so it will not be described in detail.

[0063] Furthermore, the power supply and operating principles of the drive reducer 103, hydraulic cylinder 303, hot melter 304, photoelectric positioner 310, and control panel 4 in the stable cup sealing machine are clear to those skilled in the art and will not be described in detail here.

[0064] Furthermore, the working principles and wiring methods of the drive reducer 103, hydraulic cylinder 303, hot melter 304, photoelectric positioner 310, and control panel 4 in the stable cup sealing machine are commonplace and belong to conventional methods or common knowledge. They will not be elaborated here. Those skilled in the art can make any selections according to their needs or convenience.

[0065] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model and is not intended to limit the utility model. Although the utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features.
