[0005]对现有技术的不足,本实用新型提供了一种灌装机的防滴漏机构,解决了灌装完成后,灌装头具有一定的高度,在防漏处理的时候,无法使得收集装置与灌装头完全贴合,导致部分液体飞溅的问题
[0014] In the technical solution disclosed in this utility model, the axial precision alignment function between the sleeve and the filling head is achieved through the structural design of the drive motor linked to the threaded screw. The drive motor drives the threaded screw to rotate, which is converted into linear motion through the threaded pair, pushing the horizontal plate to rise and fall along the slide groove. The slider forms a unidirectional degree of freedom constraint in the convex slide groove, ensuring that the motion trajectory is stable and without deviation. This allows the sleeve to be accurately raised and lowered to the coaxial position with the filling head, solving the problems of poor fit and liquid splashing caused by height difference in the prior art. The polytetrafluoroethylene sealing layer on the inner wall of the sleeve forms a flexible sealing surface when in contact, further improving the fit, reducing the risk of dripping, and improving the leakage prevention efficiency. Through the linkage structure design of the spring and the fixed rod, the continuous elastic pressing function of the sleeve on the filling head is achieved. The spring is sleeved on the outside of the fixed rod, with its two ends abutting the top of the fixed ring and the bottom flange of the fixed rod, respectively. When the sleeve contacts the filling head, the spring is compressed to generate axial pressure, which is transmitted to the sleeve through the fixed rod, so that it automatically adapts to the slight deformation or vibration of the filling head. This solves the problem of insufficient sealing caused by the rigid contact of the existing collection tray. The elastic clamping mechanism ensures that the liquid does not splash, and the sealing reliability is improved, making it especially suitable for filling high-viscosity liquids.

The collecting mechanism includes a motor, a circular gear, a radius gear, a rotating rod, a connecting rod, a bracket, and a collecting tray. The motor is fixedly installed on the inner top wall of the receiving cylinder.
[0003] By setting up a collection mechanism, when the filling head is sealed, the internal liquid flows downward. Under the action of the motor, the meshing of the circular gear and the radius gear drives the collection tray to move in a semi-circular trajectory through the connecting rod and bracket. This allows the collection tray to be positioned below the filling head to collect the dripping liquid and avoid liquid waste.
[0004] However, after filling, the filling head has a certain height, and during the leak prevention process, the collection device cannot be completely fitted with the filling head, resulting in some liquid splashing. This solution is not very efficient for leak prevention of filling equipment. Utility Model Content

[0008] In a specific embodiment, the fixing rod forms an axial sliding pair with the cross plate through a sliding hole, and the two ends of the spring abut against the top of the fixing ring and the bottom flange of the fixing rod, respectively.
[0009] In one specific embodiment, the drive motor is rigidly connected to the connecting plate by bolts, and the axis of the threaded screw is parallel to the length direction of the support rod.

[0021] The following will describe in detail the implementation of this application with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments, so that the implementation process of how this application uses technical means to solve technical problems and achieve technical effects can be fully understood and implemented accordingly.
[0022] Figures 1-4 In one embodiment of this utility model, a drip-proof mechanism for a filling machine includes a base 1, a support rod 2 is provided on one side of the top surface of the base 1, a housing 3 is provided on one side of the top of the support rod 2, and a filling head 4 is provided at the bottom of the housing 3; a connecting plate 6 is fixedly connected to one side of the bottom of the support rod 2, a drive motor 7 is provided at the bottom of the connecting plate 6, and a threaded screw 8 is fixedly connected to the output end of the drive motor 7 through the connecting plate 6.
[0023] The specific problem addressed in this embodiment is: after filling, the filling head has a certain height, making it impossible to completely fit the collection device with the filling head during leak prevention, resulting in some liquid splashing. This utility model achieves precise axial alignment between the sleeve 16 and the filling head 4 through a structural design that links the drive motor 7 with the threaded screw 8. The drive motor 7 drives the threaded screw 8 to rotate, which is converted into linear motion through the threaded joint, pushing the horizontal plate 11 up and down along the slide groove 9. The slider 10 forms a unidirectional degree of freedom constraint within the convex slide groove 9, ensuring a stable and unbiased motion trajectory. This allows the sleeve 16 to be precisely raised and lowered to a coaxial position with the filling head 4, solving the problems of poor fit and liquid splashing caused by height difference in existing technologies. The PTFE sealing layer on the inner wall of the sleeve 16 forms a flexible sealing surface upon contact, further improving the fit, reducing the risk of dripping, and enhancing leak prevention efficiency. Through the linkage structure design of the spring 13 and the fixing rod 14, the sleeve 16 achieves a continuous elastic pressing function on the filling head 4. The spring 13 is sleeved on the outside of the fixing rod 14, with its two ends abutting against the top of the fixing ring 12 and the bottom flange of the fixing rod 14, respectively. When the sleeve 16 contacts the filling head 4, the spring 13 compresses to generate lateral pressure, which is transmitted to the sleeve 16 through the fixing rod 14, allowing it to automatically adapt to the slight deformation or vibration of the filling head 4. This solves the problem of insufficient sealing caused by the rigid contact of the existing collection tray. The elastic pressing mechanism ensures no liquid splashing and improves sealing reliability, making it particularly suitable for high-viscosity liquid filling scenarios.
[0024] The support rod 2 has a groove 9 coaxial with the connecting plate 6 on its surface. A slider 10 is slidably connected inside the groove 9. A horizontal plate 11 is threadedly connected to the surface of the threaded screw 8. One end of the horizontal plate 11 is fixedly connected to the surface of the slider 10, and the other end of the horizontal plate 11 has a sliding hole and is rotatably connected to the fixing ring 12. A spring 13 is set on the top of the fixing ring 12. A fixing rod 14 is sleeved inside the spring 13. The fixing rod 14 is slidably connected inside the sliding hole. An extension plate 15 is fixedly connected to both sides of the top of the fixing rod 14 in an axially symmetrical manner. A sleeve 16 that coincides with the axis of the filling head 4 is fixedly connected to the end of the extension plate 15. In this specific embodiment, the base 1 is horizontally fixed to the filling production line base, and the support rod 2 is vertically fixed to the right side of the top surface of the base 1. The housing 3 is installed on the top left side of the support rod 2, and the filling head 4 at its bottom is used for liquid output. The connecting plate 6 is welded to the bottom right side of the support rod 2. The drive motor 7 is fixed to the bottom of the connecting plate 6 by bolts, and its output shaft passes through the connecting plate 6 and is coaxially connected to the vertical threaded screw 8. A vertical convex groove 9 is formed on the front side of the support rod 2, into which the slider 10 is embedded to form a one-way sliding constraint. The slider 10 is fixed to the left end of the horizontal plate 11, and a circular sliding hole is formed on the right end, which is rotatably connected to the fixing ring 12 through the bearing. The spring 13 is sleeved on the outside of the fixing rod 14, and the fixing rod 14 passes through the sliding hole of the horizontal plate 11 to form an axial sliding pair. Two L-shaped extension plates 15 are symmetrically welded to the top of the fixing rod 14, and the horizontal ends of the extension plates 15 are fixed to the sleeves 16, with the axis of the sleeves 16 coinciding with the axis of the filling head 4. The drive motor 7 drives the threaded screw 8 to rotate, which drives the horizontal plate 11 to rise and fall along the groove 9, so that the sleeves 16 are precisely fitted onto the outer wall of the filling head 4. The compression of the spring 13 generates continuous pressure to achieve a seal, solving the problem of dripping and splashing from the high-position filling head.
[0025] In this specific embodiment, the fixing rod 14 forms an axial sliding pair with the horizontal plate 11 through the sliding hole, and the two ends of the spring 13 abut against the top of the fixing ring 12 and the bottom flange of the fixing rod 14, respectively.
[0026] The bottom of the fixing rod 14 is machined with an annular flange, and the inner diameter of the sliding hole is slightly larger than the diameter of the fixing rod 14 to form a clearance fit. The lower end of the spring 13 abuts against the top surface of the fixing ring 12, and the upper end presses against the bottom of the flange of the fixing rod 14. When the sleeve 16 contacts the filling head 4, the fixing rod 14 moves upward along the sliding hole to compress the spring 13, forming an adaptive elastic sealing pressure. The spring 13 and the flange of the fixing rod 14 work together to provide dynamic clamping force, so that the sleeve 16 fits tightly against the outer wall of the filling head 4, adapting to different dimensional errors and preventing liquid leakage.
[0027] In this specific embodiment, the drive motor 7 and the connecting plate 6 are rigidly connected by bolts, and the axis of the threaded screw 8 is parallel to the length direction of the support rod 2;
[0028] The drive motor 7 is a stepper motor, which is rigidly locked to the bottom surface of the connecting plate 6 by four sets of bolts; the axis of the threaded screw 8 is parallel to the center line of the support rod 2 to ensure no skewing during the lifting process. When the motor starts, the rotational motion is converted into the linear displacement of the horizontal plate 11 through the threaded joint. The rigid bolt connection and the design of parallel axis ensure the stability of power transmission and avoid sealing failure caused by the offset of the sleeve 16.
[0029] In this specific embodiment, the cross-section of the slide groove 9 is a convex structure, and the slider 10 is matched as a protrusion and forms a unidirectional degree of freedom constraint within the slide groove 9;
[0030] The slide groove 9 has a convex cross-section, and the slider 10 is matched with a convex metal block. Its neck width is smaller than the groove opening and its head width is larger than the groove opening, so that the slider 10 can only slide vertically along the slide groove 9 and cannot be dislodged. The cooperation between the convex slide groove 9 and the slider 10 eliminates lateral swaying and improves the accuracy of the lifting trajectory of the sleeve 16.
[0031] In this specific embodiment, the inner diameter of the sleeve 16 is larger than the outer diameter of the filling head 4, and the inner wall of the sleeve 16 is provided with a polytetrafluoroethylene sealing layer.
[0032] The inner diameter of the sleeve 16 is larger than the outer diameter of the filling head 4. The inner wall is coated with a polytetrafluoroethylene coating to form a low-friction sealing surface. When the sleeve 16 is fitted into the filling head 4, the coating adheres to the metal surface and fills the micro gaps.
[0033] In this specific embodiment, the extension plate 15 is an L-shaped bent plate, with its horizontal section connected to the sleeve 16 and its vertical section welded to the top two sides of the fixing rod 14.
[0034] The extension plate 15 is made of stainless steel plate bent into an L shape. Its vertical section is welded to the top two sides of the fixed rod 14, and the horizontal section is connected to the sleeve 16 through a flange. The two sleeves 16 are symmetrically distributed with the axis of the fixed rod 14 as the center.
[0035] Working principle: When the drive motor 7 starts, it drives the threaded screw 8 to rotate. Through the threaded transmission, it pushes the horizontal plate 11 to rise and fall along the convex groove 9 of the support rod 2, which drives the slider 10 to move in a direction. This causes the spring 13 at the top of the fixed ring 12 to push the fixed rod 14 to slide in the sliding hole. This causes the sleeve 16 at the end of the axisymmetrically arranged L-shaped extension plate 15 to accurately fit into the outer wall of the filling head 4. At this time, the spring 13 is compressed and generates continuous axial pressure. Combined with the polytetrafluoroethylene sealing layer on the inner wall of the sleeve 16, it forms an adaptive sealing surface. When it is necessary to switch the work position, the fixed rod 14 is manually rotated to drive the symmetrical extension plate 15 and the spare sleeve 16 to replace the work position, realizing zero-drip protection and efficient maintenance.

The power supply is also common knowledge in the field.
