[0025] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments and accompanying drawings. It should be understood that these descriptions are merely exemplary and not intended to limit the scope of this utility model. Furthermore, descriptions of well-known structures and technologies are omitted in the following description to avoid unnecessarily obscuring the concept of this utility model.
[0026] like Figure 1-4 As shown, the present invention proposes a hopper with automatic conversion and storage function, including a feeding conveyor belt 1, a guide cover 8 at the end of the feeding conveyor belt 1, the guide cover 8 being welded to the feeding conveyor belt 1, a rotating disk 2 being rotatably provided below the guide cover 8, and a storage bin 3 being welded to the surface of the rotating disk 2, the storage bin 3 being arranged in an equidistant ring on the surface of the rotating disk 2.
[0027] Each of the storage bins 3 has a guide plate 5 welded into its inner cavity;
[0028] The rotating disk 2 is welded to the drive worm gear 13. A servo motor 14 is installed on one side of the drive worm gear 13. The power output end of the servo motor 14 is connected to the drive worm 15, and the drive worm 15 is connected to the drive worm gear 13.
[0029] It should be noted that the feeding conveyor belt 1 can transport bottle caps. The bottle caps fall into the guide cover 8, which guides the bottle caps to fall into the storage bin 3 for storage. There are multiple sets of storage bins 3, which are equidistantly arranged around the rotating disk 2. When the storage bin 3 under the guide cover 8 is full, the blocking cylinder 11 retracts and drives the blocking slide plate 10 to move. Under the guidance of the guide groove 9, the blocking slide plate 10 inserts into the guide cover 8. The blocking slide plate 10 can block the falling bottle caps. The servo motor 14 drives the drive worm gear 15, which in turn drives the drive worm wheel 13. The drive worm wheel 13 drives the storage bin 3 to rotate through the rotating disk 2, so that the empty bin moves to below the guide cover 8. The blocking cylinder 11 extends and pushes the blocking slide plate 10 away, allowing the bottle caps to continue falling into the empty bin for storage. This can reduce the time for changing bins and achieve continuous storage of bottle caps.
[0030] In this embodiment, as Figure 4 As shown, the side wall of the material guide cover 8 is provided with a guide groove 9, and the inner cavity of the guide groove 9 is provided with a material blocking slide plate 10 for blocking the bottle cap. The side wall of the material guide cover 8 is equipped with a material blocking cylinder 11, and the piston rod end of the material blocking cylinder 11 is connected to the end of the material blocking slide plate 10.
[0031] It should be noted that when switching storage bin 3, the material blocking cylinder 11 retracts and drives the material blocking slide plate 10 to move. Under the guidance of the guide groove 9, the material blocking slide plate 10 is inserted into the material guide cover 8. The falling bottle cap can be blocked by the material blocking slide plate 10.
[0032] In this embodiment, as Figure 2 As shown, the drive worm gear 13 is rotatably mounted on the rotating seat 12.
[0033] It should be noted that the rotating seat 12 can cause the rotating disk 2 to drive the storage bin 3 to rotate.
[0034] In this embodiment, as Figure 3 As shown, the surface of the storage bin 3 is provided with a fixing plate 4, and the surface of the fixing plate 4 is provided with a through-hole for insertion, and the storage bin 3 is inserted into the through-hole.
[0035] It should be noted that the storage bin 3 is inserted into the insertion hole, and multiple sets of storage bins 3 can be fixed by the fixing plate 4, which can improve the stability of the storage bin 3 when rotating.
[0036] In this embodiment, as Figure 3 As shown, the bottom of the side wall of the storage bin 3 is connected to a discharge port 6, which is opened at the bottom of the blocking slide plate 10. A discharge baffle 7 is movably inserted into each discharge port 6.
[0037] It should be noted that after the discharge baffle 7 is pulled out, the bottle cap can be quickly discharged through the discharge port 6.
[0038] The working principle and usage process of this utility model are as follows: The feeding conveyor belt 1 can transport bottle caps. The bottle caps fall into the guide cover 8, which guides the bottle caps to fall into the storage bin 3 for storage. There are multiple sets of storage bins 3, which are equidistantly arranged in a ring on the rotating disk 2. When the storage bin 3 below the guide cover 8 is full, the blocking cylinder 11 retracts, driving the blocking slide plate 10 to move. Under the guidance of the guide groove 9, the blocking slide plate 10 inserts into the guide cover 8, which can block the falling bottle caps. The servo motor 14 is controlled to drive the... The worm gear 15 drives the drive worm wheel 13, which in turn drives the storage bin 3 to rotate via the rotating disk 2. This causes the empty bin to move below the guide cover 8. The blocking cylinder 11 extends and pushes the blocking slide plate 10 away, allowing the bottle caps to continue falling into the empty bin for storage. This reduces the time required to change bins and enables continuous storage of bottle caps. After the discharge baffle 7 is pulled out, the bottle caps can be quickly discharged through the discharge port 6. At the same time, the guide plate 5 guides the bottle caps, allowing them to be quickly and thoroughly discharged from the storage bin 3.
