Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of vial manufacturing technology, specifically to a vacuum extraction and transfer device suitable for controlled injection vials. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, after the vials are formed, they are held in grippers. Later, they need to be removed from the grippers and placed on a conveyor line. This process requires fixing and removing the product while the grippers are releasing, followed by rotation and conveying onto a chute for further processing. The existing conveyor system cannot work synchronously with the forming machine, therefore, it cannot guarantee 100% vial removal when the grippers release, thus affecting subsequent processes. Summary of the Invention

[0003] In order to overcome the shortcomings of the above-mentioned technologies, this utility model provides a vacuum removal and transfer device that facilitates the removal of vials and their transfer to a slide.

When the slide moves down into place, the adsorption unit adsorbs and fixes the bottom of the vial.

[0005] Furthermore, the aforementioned turntable drive mechanism includes a reducer I mounted in the base, the turntable being drivenly connected to the output shaft of the reducer I, and a servo motor I being drivenly connected to the input shaft of the reducer I.

[0006] Furthermore, the aforementioned sliding mechanism is a linear guide rail mounted vertically on a bracket, and the slide block is fixed to the slider of the linear guide rail.

[0007] Furthermore, the aforementioned slide drive mechanism includes a reducer II mounted on the upper end of the bracket and a lead screw rotatably mounted in the bracket. The axis of the lead screw is arranged in the vertical direction. The output shaft of the reducer II is coaxially connected to the upper end of the lead screw. The lead screw is threadedly connected to the slide. The input shaft of the reducer II is connected to a servo motor II.

[0008] Furthermore, the aforementioned vacuum unit includes a vacuum solenoid valve mounted on a mounting plate, the inlet of which is connected to the upper end of a vacuum tube, and the outlet of which is connected to a vacuum pump.

[0009] Furthermore, the aforementioned adsorption unit includes an adsorption block installed at the lower end of the vacuum tube. The adsorption block has an internal gas chamber and an air hole at its bottom. The upper end of the gas chamber is connected to the vacuum tube, and its lower end is connected to the air hole.

[0010] To achieve buffering, the vacuum tube is slidably installed in the mounting plate in the vertical direction via a sliding device. A spring is fitted at the lower end of the vacuum tube, with the lower end of the spring contacting the upper end of the adsorption block and the upper end of the spring contacting the lower end of the linear bearing.

[0011] Furthermore, the aforementioned sliding device is a linear bearing mounted on a mounting plate, and the vacuum tube is slidably mounted in the inner hole of the linear bearing in the vertical direction.

[0012] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: After the vial production line delivers the product to the designated position, the slide drive mechanism drives the slide to move downward along the sliding mechanism until the adsorption unit contacts the bottom of the vial. The vacuum unit generates a vacuum suction force, which is transmitted to the adsorption unit through the vacuum tube. Therefore, the adsorption unit adsorbs and fixes the vial. Then, the slide drive mechanism drives the slide to move upward, and the turntable drive mechanism drives the turntable to rotate, so that the vial rotates to the conveyor line. The slide drive mechanism drives the slide to move downward, the vacuum unit closes, the suction force disappears, and the vial is placed at the conveyor line, thus completing the removal of the vial from the vial production line and its transfer to the conveyor line.

[0014] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figure 1 Appendix Figure 2 Appendix Figure 3 The present invention will be further described below.

[0015] A vacuum extraction and transfer device suitable for controlled injection vials includes: a base 1 with a turntable 2 horizontally rotatably mounted on its upper end; a turntable drive mechanism disposed in the base 1 for driving the turntable 2 to rotate; a bracket 5 vertically mounted on the turntable 2, with a slide block 7 slidably mounted on the bracket 5 vertically via a sliding mechanism; a slide block drive mechanism mounted on the bracket 5 for driving the slide block 7 to move up and down via the sliding mechanism; a mounting plate 10 horizontally fixed on the slide block 7, with a vacuum tube 16 disposed on the mounting plate 10 vertically; an adsorption unit disposed below the vacuum tube 16; and a vacuum unit for generating vacuum suction through the vacuum tube 16, so that when the slide block 7 moves into position, the adsorption unit adsorbs and fixes the bottom of the vial 15. After the vial production line delivers the product, the slide drive mechanism drives the slide 7 downwards along the sliding mechanism until the adsorption unit contacts the bottom of the vial 15. The vacuum unit generates a vacuum suction force, which is conducted to the adsorption unit through the vacuum tube 16. Therefore, the adsorption unit adsorbs and fixes the vial 15. Then, the slide drive mechanism drives the slide 7 upwards, and the turntable drive mechanism drives the turntable 2 to rotate, causing the vial 15 to rotate onto the conveyor line. The slide drive mechanism then drives the slide 7 downwards, the vacuum unit closes, and the suction force disappears, thus placing the vial 15 onto the conveyor line. This completes the removal and transfer of the vial 15 from the vial production line to the conveyor line. The adjustable nature of the vial removal and conveying action is achieved by adjusting the operating frequency of the turntable drive mechanism and the slide drive mechanism. The sliding drive mechanism can also drive the turntable 2 to rotate in the other direction, rotating the defective vials 15 to the defective product temporary storage box and placing them into the defective product temporary storage box, further realizing the separation of qualified and defective products.

[0016] In one embodiment of the present invention, the turntable drive mechanism includes a reducer I3 mounted in the base 1, the turntable 2 is drivenly connected to the output shaft of the reducer I3, and the input shaft of the reducer I3 is drivenly connected to a servo motor I4.

[0017] In one embodiment of this utility model, the sliding mechanism is a linear guide rail 6 mounted vertically on the bracket 5, and the slide block 7 is fixed to the slider of the linear guide rail 6. By setting the linear guide rail 6, the smooth sliding of the slide block 7 can be ensured, improving the reliability of use.

[0018] In one embodiment of this utility model, the slide drive mechanism includes a reducer II8 mounted on the upper end of the bracket 5 and a lead screw rotatably mounted in the bracket 5. The axis of the lead screw is arranged vertically. The output shaft of the reducer II8 is coaxially connected to the upper end of the lead screw. The lead screw is threadedly connected to the slide 7. The input shaft of the reducer II8 is connected to a servo motor II9. The rotation of the servo motor II9 drives the lead screw to rotate after the torque is reduced and amplified by the reducer II8. Since the lead screw is threadedly connected to the slide 7, the slide 7 is driven to slide up and down along the linear guide rail 6. The structure is simple and the operation is reliable.

[0019] In one embodiment of this utility model, the vacuum unit includes a vacuum solenoid valve 11 mounted on a mounting plate 10. The inlet of the vacuum solenoid valve 11 is connected to the upper end of the vacuum tube 16, and its outlet is connected to a vacuum pump. When it is necessary to adsorb vials 15, the vacuum solenoid valve 11 is opened, and the airflow generated by the vacuum pump is conducted through the vacuum solenoid valve 11 to the vacuum tube 16, and finally adsorbs and fixes the vials 15 through the adsorption block 14. When it is necessary to place the vials 15, the vacuum solenoid valve 11 is closed, the vacuum environment in the adsorption block 14 disappears, and the vials 15 are detached from the adsorption block 14.

[0020] In one embodiment of this invention, the adsorption unit includes an adsorption block 14 installed at the lower end of a vacuum tube 16. An air cavity 18 is provided inside the adsorption block 14, and an air hole 19 is provided at the bottom of the adsorption block 14. The upper end of the air cavity 18 is connected to the vacuum tube 16, and its lower end is connected to the air hole 19. The vacuum unit generates a vacuum environment through the vacuum tube 16, which is then conducted to the air hole 19 through the air cavity 18. Thus, when the adsorption block 14 comes into contact with the vial 15, it adsorbs and fixes the vial 15.

[0021] In one embodiment of this utility model, the vacuum tube 16 is slidably mounted vertically in the mounting plate 10 via a sliding device. A spring 17 is fitted at the lower end of the vacuum tube 16, with the lower end of the spring 17 contacting the upper end of the adsorption block 14 and its upper end contacting the lower end of the linear bearing 13. The upper end of the vacuum tube 16 is connected to the air inlet of the vacuum solenoid valve 11 via a flexible hose 12. When the slide block 7 moves downward, the adsorption block 14 contacts the bottom of the vial 15, pushing the vacuum tube 16 upward. The vacuum tube 16 slides upward via the sliding device and compresses the spring 17, thus buffering the contact between the adsorption block 14 and the vial 15 during downward movement and effectively preventing damage to the vial 15.

[0022] In one embodiment of this utility model, the sliding device is a linear bearing 13 mounted on the mounting plate 10, and the vacuum tube 16 is slidably mounted in the inner hole of the linear bearing 13 in the vertical direction. The vacuum tube 16 achieves up-and-down sliding relative to the mounting plate 10 through the linear bearing 13, so its up-and-down movement is smooth and without jamming, improving the stability of operation.

[0023] 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.
