Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of tea packaging technology, and in particular to an automatic tea bag placement mechanism for multi-tea bags. Background Technology

[0002] In current tea packaging processes, tea leaves are often placed into small tea bags, and then several small tea bags are arranged in a specific way before being placed into tea boxes for an aesthetically pleasing presentation. Currently, the arrangement of tea bags is mostly done manually, which is inefficient. Alternatively, small tea bags can be directly fed into tea boxes via conveyor belts, but this makes it difficult to achieve the desired arrangement. Utility Model Content

[0014] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.

[0015] Reference Figure 1-3An automatic tea bag placement mechanism for multiple tea bags includes a first conveyor belt 1 for conveying tea bags. The tea bags are laid flat on the first conveyor belt 1. A first vision recognition mechanism 2, an adjustment mechanism 3, and a pushing mechanism 4 are sequentially arranged on the first conveyor belt 1. A merging mechanism 5 is arranged below the pushing mechanism 4 on the first conveyor belt 1. A device plate 6 is arranged on the outside of the merging mechanism 5, and the device plate 6 is perpendicular to the first conveyor belt 1. A first robotic arm 7 is arranged on one side of the first conveyor belt 1. The first robotic arm 7 is used to transfer the tea bags placed at the merging mechanism 5 to the tea box on the device plate 6.

[0016] When in use, several tea bags are laid flat on the first conveyor belt 1. The first conveyor belt 1 transports the tea bags towards the first visual recognition mechanism 2. During the transport, the first visual recognition mechanism 2 takes pictures of the tea bags to identify their orientation. The orientation information of the tea bags is then transmitted to the control system. The control system controls the adjustment mechanism 3 to adjust the orientation of the tea bags so that each pair of adjacent tea bags is facing each other. After adjustment, the first conveyor belt 1 moves the adjusted tea bags to the pushing mechanism 4. The pushing mechanism 4 pushes two adjacent tea bags one by one from the first conveyor belt 1 onto the device plate 6. During the operation of the pushing mechanism 4, the flat position of the tea bags on the first conveyor belt 1 is adjusted to a side-standing position on the device plate 6. Then, the merging mechanism 5 moves the two tea bags together with their heads and tails facing each other. Finally, the first robotic arm 7 picks up the two side-standing tea bags and puts them into a tea box for packaging.

[0017] Specifically, in this embodiment, the adjustment mechanism 3 includes a device frame 31 mounted on the first conveyor belt 1. A rotary motor 32 is located at the center of the device frame 31. A first cylinder 33 is connected to the output end of the rotary motor 32, and a first clamping mechanism 34 is connected to the output end of the first cylinder 33. When the adjustment mechanism 3 is running, the first cylinder 33 controls the first clamping mechanism 34 to move downward to clamp the tea bag whose orientation needs to be adjusted. Then, the rotary motor 32 runs, causing the first clamping mechanism 34 and the clamped tea bag to rotate synchronously, adjusting the orientation of the tea bag to the desired orientation, so as to achieve a distribution state where every two adjacent tea bags are opposite each other.

[0018] Specifically, in this embodiment, a pressure sensor is provided at the clamping end of the first clamping mechanism 34. The pressure sensor is electrically connected to the power component of the first clamping mechanism 34 so as to control the clamping force on the first clamping mechanism 34 through the pressure sensor, so that the clamping force is always within a suitable range, thereby avoiding the situation where the tea leaves are crushed due to excessive clamping force or the tea bag cannot be effectively clamped due to insufficient clamping force.

[0019] Specifically, in this embodiment, the pushing mechanism 4 includes a first electric push rod 41 mounted on the first conveyor belt 1. A baffle 42 is mounted on the side of the first conveyor belt 1 opposite to the first electric push rod 41, and the baffle 42 is located on the outer side of the first conveyor belt 1. The distance between the baffle and the baffle is less than the width of the tea bag when it is laid flat. When the pushing mechanism 4 is running, the first electric push rod 41 pushes the tea bag to the gap between the first conveyor belt 1 and the baffle 42. Since the space in this gap is too small to accommodate the tea bag when it is laid flat, the tea bag changes from a flat position to a side-standing position and falls onto the device plate 6, thereby adjusting the standing position of the tea bag.

[0020] Specifically, in this embodiment, the bottom of the baffle 42 is provided with a notch. The distance from the top of the notch to the device plate 6 is greater than the height distance when the tea bag is standing on its side, so that the merging mechanism 5 can contact the tea bag through the distance at the notch and ensure the normal movement of the tea bag.

[0021] Specifically, in this embodiment, the merging mechanism 5 includes a second electric push rod 51 disposed on the device plate 6. When the merging mechanism 5 is in operation, the second electric push rod 51 pushes the first tea bag that has fallen on the device plate 6 to the end of the device plate 6, and then pushes the second tea bag that has fallen on the device plate 6 to a state of being in contact with the first tea bag, thereby adjusting the two tea bags to a state of close contact with each other end to end.

[0022] Specifically, in this embodiment, a baffle 52 is provided at the end of the device plate 6. The height of the baffle 52 is 1 / 3 of the height of the tea bag when it is standing on its side. A pressure sensor is provided at the end of the second electric push rod 51, and the pressure sensor is electrically connected to the second electric push rod 51. The baffle 52 is provided to block the tea bag and prevent it from falling off the device plate 6. The pressure sensor is provided to adjust the pushing force of the second electric push rod 51, so that the pushing force of the second electric push rod 51 is always within a reasonable range.

[0023] The above are merely preferred embodiments of this utility model, but the scope of protection of this utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or modifications made by those skilled in the art within the scope of the technology disclosed in this utility model, based on the technical solution and inventive concept of this utility model, should be included within the scope of protection of this utility model.
