A multi-directional clamping automatic opening and closing sealing barrel

Abstract

This utility model discloses a multi-directional clamping automatic opening and closing sealing barrel, comprising a cylindrical body, a barrel lid, two sliding grooves on the barrel lid, sliders slidably connected to the inner surfaces of the two sliding grooves, sliding components fixedly connected to the upper surfaces of the two sliders, sliding fingers fixedly connected to the lower surfaces of the two sliders, and a locking buckle fixedly connected to one end of each sliding finger. The cylindrical body is provided with an annular slide rail. Through this structure, a robotic arm can quickly close the barrel lid; when disassembling, the robotic arm only needs to grip the left and right sliding components of the quick-release lid and drive the sliders to control the sliding fingers, causing the locking buckle to slide out of the slide rail. The entire opening and closing process does not require manual alignment or force application, significantly shortening the operation time compared to traditional manual closing / disassembly methods. It can efficiently adapt to high-frequency material transfer, packaging, or unloading scenarios, significantly improving production flow efficiency.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of sealing barrel technology, and in particular to a multi-directional clamping automatic opening and closing sealing barrel. Background Technology

[0002] In the chemical, food, pharmaceutical, warehousing and logistics industries, sealed containers serve as the core carriers for material storage and transfer. The opening and closing of their lids directly impacts production efficiency, material safety, and operating costs. Currently, the opening and closing of sealed containers mainly relies on two traditional methods, both of which have significant technical limitations and are difficult to adapt to the high-efficiency, precision, and safety requirements of modern automated production lines. Existing lids are mostly semi-automated assisted operation modes. Some companies have introduced robotic arms to replace manual gripping, but the opening and closing of the lids still relies on complex electronic or pneumatic drive structures. Some solutions achieve opening and closing by using robotic arms equipped with electromagnetic locks or cylinders to push the latches, requiring additional power supply, pneumatic circuits, and precision control systems. While such solutions reduce manual intervention to some extent, they bring new problems: First, the structure is complex, and the coordination and debugging of the electronic control module, pneumatic components and robotic arm are difficult. They are also susceptible to fluctuations in workshop voltage and changes in air source pressure, resulting in a high failure rate. Second, maintenance costs are high. After the electromagnetic lock, cylinder and other components wear out, they need to be replaced by professionals. Each maintenance takes a long time and affects the continuity of production. Third, adaptability is poor. Most solutions have fixed locking size and drive stroke, which can only be adapted to a single specification of sealed barrel. When changing the barrel model, the structure needs to be redesigned, which makes it difficult to meet the production needs of multiple types of materials. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this utility model is to solve at least one of the technical problems existing in the prior art, and to provide a multi-directional clamping automatic opening and closing sealing barrel, which solves the pain points of existing sealing barrel opening and closing technology, namely "low efficiency, poor reliability, complex structure and weak adaptability", and cannot meet the core requirements of modern production lines for "high efficiency and automation, high sealing reliability, low maintenance cost and strong scene adaptability".

[0004] This utility model also provides a multi-directional clamping automatic opening and closing sealing bucket, comprising: a cylindrical body, a bucket lid provided on the cylindrical body, two sliding grooves provided on the bucket lid, sliders slidably connected to the inner surfaces of the two sliding grooves, sliding components fixedly connected to the upper surfaces of the two sliders, sliding fingers fixedly connected to the lower surfaces of the two sliders, and a locking buckle fixedly connected to one end of each sliding finger; an annular slide rail provided on the cylindrical body; a fixing component fixedly connected to the lower surface of the bucket lid; a fixing groove provided on the fixing component; two springs provided on the inner surface of the fixing groove; and the other ends of the two springs fixedly connected to the sliding fingers.

[0005] Preferably, the bucket lid is provided with a gripper, the gripper is fixedly connected to the bucket lid, and the gripper is provided with a handle. The handle and gripper on the bucket lid facilitate the robotic arm to separate the bucket lid from the barrel body.

[0006] Preferably, a flexible plate is fixedly connected to the inner surface of the cylinder. The flexible plate is made of rubber and can provide shock absorption at the bottom of the cylinder to protect the internal test tubes.

[0007] Preferably, a fixing rod is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the flexible plate, and two fixing discs are provided on the fixing rod. The fixing discs facilitate the fixing of the test tube and prevent the test tube from colliding with the inner wall of the cylinder.

[0008] Preferably, each of the two fixing plates is provided with four fixing holes, and a test tube is provided on the inner surface of each of the four fixing holes.

[0009] Preferably, the two springs are symmetrically designed, and both springs are fixedly connected to the inner surface of the fixing groove, so that the springs can easily reset the sliding finger.

[0010] Preferably, the latch is slidably connected to the inner surface of the annular slide rail, and the sliding assembly is located above the bucket lid, which facilitates the robot arm to flexibly control the sliding finger.

[0011] Beneficial effects: Relying on the return spring to drive the barrel lock to accurately engage with the upper edge slide rail of the barrel, the robotic arm can quickly complete the barrel lid fastening; when disassembling, the robotic arm only needs to grasp the left and right sliding components of the quick-release barrel lid and drive the slider to control the sliding fingers to make the lock slide out of the slide rail. The entire opening and closing process does not require manual alignment or force application. Compared with the traditional manual fastening / disassembly method, the operation time is greatly shortened. It can be efficiently adapted to high-frequency material transfer, packaging or unloading scenarios, and significantly improves production flow efficiency.

[0012] This technical solution features a multi-directional clamping automatic opening and closing sealing barrel. The quick-release barrel lid and barrel body are quickly engaged and disengaged. The quick-release lid mainly consists of a lid, spring, sliding fingers, and latches. The spring is installed inside the fixing groove of the lid's fixing component, and the sliding fingers can slide left and right. The robotic arm grips the lid, and after fastening the quick-release lid onto the barrel body, the barrel body latch, under the action of the return spring, pushes the latch into the annular slide rail on the upper edge of the barrel body, achieving rapid engagement between the quick-release lid and the barrel body. The robotic arm can move the entire quick-release barrel via the lid gripper. The robotic arm's left and right sliding components gripping the quick-release lid drive the slider to control the sliding fingers, causing the left and right barrel body latches to slide out of the annular slide rail on the upper edge of the barrel body. The robotic arm then removes the quick-release lid, allowing for separation of the quick-release lid from the barrel body. Attached Figure Description
