Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of bottling equipment technology, and in particular to a guiding device. Background Technology

[0002] In existing systems, when bottles are transferred from the feeding equipment to the receiving equipment in the next process, the slots on the turntable of the feeding equipment cause the bottles to rotate on the feeding equipment. When the bottles rotate to a position close to the receiving equipment, the grippers on the receiving equipment will engage with the bottle neck, thereby clamping and carrying the bottle away, thus realizing the transfer from the feeding equipment to the receiving equipment. However, during the transfer process, if the bottle clamps and bottle necks do not match properly, the bottles may not be able to completely detach from the feeding equipment, resulting in accidents such as bottle dropping or machine collision. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a guiding device to solve one or more technical problems existing in the prior art, and at least provide a beneficial option or create conditions.

[0004] The solution to the technical problem of this utility model is: A guiding device, characterized in that the guiding device is applied to a feeding device, wherein a plurality of conveying grooves are arranged circumferentially at intervals along the outer edge of the feeding device, each conveying groove having a first opening on a side opposite to the center of the feeding device, and the plurality of conveying grooves being rotatable about the upper and lower axes of the feeding device, the guiding device comprising: Mounting bracket, which is installed on the feeding device; A guide plate is mounted on the mounting frame. The conveying trough can be rotated to the underside of the guide plate. The guide plate gradually extends away from the feeding equipment from one end of the conveying trough in the direction from the front end to the end end. Wherein, when any of the conveying troughs is located below the guide plate, the distance from the bottom of the conveying trough to the center of the feeding device is less than the distance from the side of the guide plate away from the conveying device to the center of the feeding device.

[0005] As can be seen from the above, when a feeding device is used for feeding, the conveyor trough will jam the goods in the conveyor trough and rotate to transport them until the goods are transferred to the receiving device of the next process. When the goods are transferred between the feeding device and the receiving device, the guide plate protruding from the bottom of the conveyor trough can push the goods away from the feeding device, so that the goods can leave the bottom of the conveyor trough and move towards the receiving device.

[0006] This technical solution has at least the following beneficial effects: simply by setting a guide plate fixed relative to the feeding equipment on the conveying trough of the feeding equipment, the transported goods can be moved relative to the guide plate by the movement of the conveying trough itself, thereby being pushed by the guide plate to move the goods away from the bottom of the conveying trough, making it easier for the receiving equipment to receive the goods pushed out of the conveying trough.

[0007] As a further improvement to the above technical solution, the mounting frame includes an upright column and a crossbar connected to each other. The upright column is connected to the feeding device, the crossbar is rotatable around the upper and lower axes of the upright column, and the guide plate is mounted on the crossbar.

[0008] As a further improvement to the above technical solution, the crossbar can move along the vertical direction of the column.

[0009] As a further improvement to the above technical solution, a connector is provided on the cross frame, one end of which is connected to the cross frame and the other end of which can be connected to the guide plate.

[0010] As a further improvement to the above technical solution, the connector includes a first connecting bolt, one end of which is connected to the crossbeam and the other end of which is connected to the guide plate.

[0011] As a further improvement to the above technical solution, the connector further includes a second connecting bolt extending in the vertical direction. An arc-shaped hole is provided on the crossbeam. The center of the circle in which the arc-shaped hole extends coincides with the projection of the central axis of the first connecting bolt onto the horizontal plane. The second connecting bolt can slide within the arc-shaped hole.

[0012] As a further improvement to the above technical solution, the second connecting bolt is movable in the vertical direction on the crossbeam, and the crossbeam is provided with a locking member for positioning the second connecting bolt on the crossbeam.

[0013] As a further improvement to the above technical solution, the locking component includes two locking nuts, both of which are threaded to the second connecting bolt, and the two locking nuts are located on the upper and lower sides of the crossbeam respectively.

[0014] As a further improvement to the above technical solution, the guide plate is provided with a threaded hole, and the second locking bolt can be threaded into the threaded hole.

[0015] As a further improvement to the above technical solution, the guiding device is used in conjunction with the receiving device. The receiving device is located on the side of the guide plate away from the feeding device. The receiving device is provided with a plurality of clamping members that rotate around the upper and lower axes along the circumferential direction.

[0023] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 This application provides a guiding device applied to a feeding device 1 for transporting goods. Specifically, in this embodiment, the goods are plastic bottles. The outer edge of the feeding device 1 is provided with multiple conveying grooves 11 spaced circumferentially. The multiple conveying grooves 11 can rotate around the upper and lower axes of the feeding device 1. The conveying grooves 11 are provided with a first opening on the side away from the center of the feeding device 1. The conveying grooves 11 of the feeding device 1 can engage with the bottle mouth of the plastic bottle to transport the plastic bottle. The guiding device includes a mounting frame 2 and a guide plate 3. The mounting frame 2 is installed on the feeding device 1, and the guide plate 3 is installed on the mounting frame 2. The conveying grooves 11 can rotate to the bottom of the guide plate 3. The guide plate 3 gradually extends away from the feeding device 1 from one end of the conveying groove 11 from the front end to the end end. When any conveying groove 11 is located below the guide plate 3, the distance from the bottom of the conveying groove 11 to the center of the feeding device 1 is less than the distance from the side of the guide plate 3 away from the feeding device to the center of the feeding device 1.

[0024] As can be seen from the above, when the feeding device 1 is used for feeding, the conveying trough 11 will hold the goods in the conveying trough 11 and rotate them for transportation until the goods are transferred to the receiving device 6 of the next process. When the goods are transferred between the feeding device 1 and the receiving device 6, the guide plate 3 protruding from the bottom of the conveying trough 11 can push the goods away from the feeding device 1, so that the goods can leave the bottom of the conveying trough 11 and move towards the receiving device 6. In this way, as long as the guide plate 3 is fixed relative to the feeding device 1 on the conveying trough 11 of the feeding device 1, the transported goods can be moved relative to the guide plate 3 by the movement of the conveying trough 11 itself, and thus the goods are pushed away from the bottom of the conveying trough 11 by the guide plate 3, so that the receiving device 6 can receive the goods pushed out of the conveying trough 11.

[0025] Furthermore, because the position of the conveyor trough 11 on different feeding devices 1 is uncertain, in order to adjust the mounting frame 2 and thereby change the position of the guide plate 3 relative to the conveyor trough 11, refer to Figure 3 and Figure 4 In this embodiment, the mounting frame 2 includes an upright column 21 and a crossbeam 22 connected to each other. The upright column 21 is connected to the feeding device 1. The crossbeam 22 can rotate around the upper and lower axes of the upright column 21. The crossbeam 22 extends in the horizontal direction. The upright column 21 is installed at one end of the crossbeam 22 along its own length direction. The guide plate 3 is installed on the crossbeam 22.

[0026] As can be seen from the above, after the column 21 is fixed on the feeding device 1, the cross frame 22 is rotated to drive the guide plate 3 to rotate on the feeding device 1, so that the inclined side of the guide plate 3 moves to the conveying trough 11, so that the guide plate 3 can stably push the goods.

[0027] Furthermore, the crossbeam 22 can move vertically on the column 21. Since bottles of different sizes will have different protrusion heights relative to the conveying trough 11, in order to ensure that the guide plate 3 can always abut against the bottle mouth and stably push the bottle out of the conveying trough 11, when transporting between the feeding device 1 and the receiving device 6, the staff can adjust the crossbeam 22 in advance according to the height of the bottle mouth protruding from the conveying trough 11, thereby driving the guide plate 3 to move vertically relative to the bottle mouth until the guide plate 3 is located on the movement path of each bottle mouth.

[0028] Specifically, a vertical sleeve is provided on the column 21, with one channel of the vertical sleeve fitted onto the column 21. A connecting post is provided at one end of the crossbeam 22, and the other channel of the vertical sleeve is fitted onto the connecting post. The bolts on the vertical sleeve are then locked, so that the column 21 and the crossbeam 22 can be relatively fixed. When the crossbeam 22 is moved, the bolts on the vertical sleeve are loosened, so that the vertical sleeve can be released from the column 21 and the connecting post, making it convenient for the staff to move the crossbeam 22.

[0029] Furthermore, a connector 4 is provided on the crossbeam 22, with one end connected to the crossbeam 22 and the other end connected to the guide plate 3. Specifically, the connector 4 includes a first connecting bolt 41 extending in the vertical direction. One end of the first connecting bolt 41 is connected to the crossbeam 22, and the other end is connected to the guide plate 3. The guide plate 3 can be quickly and easily locked onto the crossbeam 22 via the first connecting bolt 41. The connector 4 also includes a second connecting bolt 42 extending in the vertical direction. The second connecting bolt 42 can move in the vertical direction on the crossbeam 22. The first connecting bolt 41 can move in the vertical direction on the crossbeam 22. By the synchronous rise and fall of the first connecting bolt 41 and the second connecting bolt 42, the guide plate 3 is driven to move in the vertical direction on the crossbeam 22. This, in conjunction with the movement of the crossbeam 22, further adjusts the height of the guide plate 3, expands the movable range of the guide plate 3, and makes it suitable for the mouths of plastic bottles of more various heights.

[0030] The crossbeam 22 is provided with a locking element for positioning the second connecting bolt 42 on the crossbeam 22. Through the cooperation of the first connecting bolt 41 and the second connecting bolt 42, the guide plate 3 is firmly fixed on the crossbeam 22.

[0031] Furthermore, refer to Figure 3 and Figure 4 The crossbeam 22 has a connecting hole at one end away from the upright 21 for the first connecting bolt 41 to pass through. The crossbeam 22 has an arc-shaped hole 221 in the middle for the second connecting bolt 42 to pass through. The center of the circle in which the arc-shaped hole 221 extends coincides with the projection of the first connecting bolt 41 on the horizontal plane. The second connecting bolt 42 can slide horizontally along the extension direction of the arc-shaped block. With this design, when the second connecting bolt 42 is not locked with a locking device, by driving the second connecting bolt 42 to rotate around the central axis of the first connecting bolt 41, the entire guide plate 3 rotates with the second connecting bolt 42 around the central axis of the first connecting bolt 41. This design readjusts the orientation of the guide plate 3, allowing the guide plate 3 to guide the goods more accurately and improving the accuracy of guidance.

[0032] Specifically, the locking component includes two locking nuts 5, both of which are threaded to the second connecting bolt 42. The two locking nuts 5 are located on the upper and lower sides of the crossbeam 22, respectively. When it is necessary to drive the guide plate 3 to move relative to the crossbeam 22, the lower locking nut 5 is loosened so that only the upper locking nut 5 is in contact with the crossbeam 22. At this time, the upper locking thread can support the second connecting bolt 42, allowing the second connecting bolt to slide stably on the crossbeam 22 until the guide plate 3 moves to the predetermined position. Then, the lower locking bolt is tightened again to position the guide plate 3.

[0033] Similarly, the first connecting bolt 41 is also provided with the same locking nut 5, which is used to lock the first connecting bolt 41 in the connecting hole.

[0034] In some embodiments, the guide plate 3 is provided with multiple threaded holes, and both the first locking bolt and the second locking bolt can be threaded into the threaded holes. The design of the threaded holes makes it possible to detach the locking bolt and the guide plate 3, which facilitates the replacement of guide plates 3 of different specifications.

[0035] Furthermore, the guiding device is used in conjunction with the receiving device. The receiving device is located on the side of the guide plate 3 away from the feeding device 1. The receiving device is provided with a plurality of clamping members 61 that rotate around the upper and lower axes along the circumferential direction. The clamping members 61 form a second opening and can communicate with the conveying trough 11. The guide plate 3 is provided with a pressing plate 7 at one end along the conveying front end to the conveying end of the conveying trough 11. The clamping member 61 can move to the second opening and abut against the pressing plate 7. In this embodiment, the clamping member 61 is a claw.

[0036] Furthermore, the guide plate 3 and the extrusion plate 7 are integrally formed.

[0037] With this design, after the guide plate 3 pushes the goods out of the feeding device 1, the goods are clamped by the clamping member 61 and continue to move. Then the clamping member 61 moves to abut against the extrusion plate 7. After the extrusion plate 7 abuts against the second opening, it completely presses the goods into the clamping space of the clamping member 61, thereby improving the stability of clamping.

[0038] The preferred embodiments of the present invention have been described in detail above, but the present invention is not limited to the described embodiments. Those skilled in the art can make various equivalent modifications or substitutions without departing from the spirit of the present invention, and these equivalent modifications or substitutions are all included within the scope defined by the claims of this application.
