Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of beverage can production and processing, and in particular relates to a stable and anti-slip bracket for a beverage can sealing machine. Background Technology

[0002] A beverage can is a metal beverage container that opens with a pre-installed pull tab. Its main manufacturing materials are aluminum or tinplate. A complete beverage can typically consists of two parts: the can body and the lid. The can body is stamped as a single piece. After the beverage is filled into the can, a sealing machine attaches the lid to the can body and performs a "double-rolled" seal, ensuring a tight, pressed fit between the can body and the lid.

[0003] Traditional capping machines apply rotation and downward pressure during the capping process. This can easily lead to slippage or shaking, resulting in incomplete seals, uneven sealing structures, and sealing defects. This can cause air or liquid leaks, severely impacting product shelf life. Furthermore, the diameter and height of beverage cans vary in the market. Traditional fixing brackets are often designed for cans of specific sizes and lack effective adjustment mechanisms. When changing can types, cumbersome mechanical adjustments or even fixture replacements are required, which is not only time-consuming and labor-intensive, reducing production efficiency, but also prone to affecting the fixing effect due to adjustment errors.

[0005] This utility model embodiment is implemented as follows: a stable and anti-slip bracket for a can sealing machine, used for clamping and fixing cans, includes:

[0006] Base;

[0007] The clamping assembly, fixedly mounted on the base via the lifting assembly, includes:

[0008] The mounting base has a movable groove fixedly opened inside, and end plates are fixedly installed at both ends. A placement platform is also fixedly set in the middle of the movable groove for placing the can to be sealed.

[0009] A bidirectional lead screw, both ends of which are rotatably mounted in an end plate via bearings, one end of which rotatably passes through the end plate and is fixedly connected to the motor power output end mounted on one end of the mounting base, and the middle part of the bidirectional lead screw rotatably passes through the placement platform;

[0010] Two movable seats are symmetrically mounted on the bidirectional lead screw through threaded engagement and slide in conjunction with the movable groove. A clamp is fixedly mounted on the seat, and the clamp is configured as an "L" shaped bent structure.

[0011] Two grippers are movably mounted on two gripping seats. The adjacent surfaces of the two grippers are provided with "V"-shaped grooves that are adapted to the outer diameter of the can. Multiple guide rods are fixedly installed on their opposite surfaces. The guide rods slide with the gripping seats. Springs are sleeved on the outside of the guide rods. The two ends of the springs are in pressure contact with the sides of the gripping seats and the sides of the grippers, respectively.

[0012] As a further embodiment of this utility model: a protective pad is also provided in the "V"-shaped groove opened on the adjacent surfaces of the two grippers, and the protective pad is made of elastic material.

[0023] 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 the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model.

[0024] The specific implementation of this utility model will be described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments.

[0025] Please see Figures 1 to 4 This utility model embodiment provides a stable and anti-slip bracket for a can sealing machine, used for clamping and fixing the can 4, including:

[0026] Base 1;

[0027] The clamping assembly 3, which is fixedly mounted on the base 1 via the lifting assembly 2, includes:

[0028] Mounting base 31, which has a fixed movable groove 311 inside and end plates 312 fixedly installed at both ends. A placement platform 313 is also fixedly installed in the middle of the movable groove 311 for placing the aluminum can 4 to be sealed.

[0029] The bidirectional lead screw 33 has both ends rotatably mounted in the end plate 312 via bearings. One end of the lead screw 33 rotatably passes through the end plate 312 and is fixedly connected to the power output end of the motor 32 mounted on one end of the mounting base 31. The middle part of the bidirectional lead screw 33 rotatably passes through the placement platform 313.

[0030] Two movable seats 34 are symmetrically mounted on the bidirectional lead screw 33 by threaded engagement and slide in the movable groove 311. A clamp 35 is fixedly mounted on the seat, and the clamp 35 is set as an "L" shaped bent structure.

[0031] Two grippers 36 are movably mounted on two grippers 35. The adjacent surfaces of the two grippers 36 are provided with "V"-shaped grooves that are adapted to the outer diameter of the can 4. Multiple guide rods 38 are fixedly installed on their opposite surfaces. The guide rods 38 are slidably engaged with the grippers 35. Springs 39 are sleeved on the outside of the guide rods 38. The two ends of the springs 39 are in pressure contact with the side of the grippers 35 and the side of the grippers 36, respectively.

[0032] In practical application, the mounting base 31 is activated, driving the bidirectional lead screw 33 to rotate. When the bidirectional lead screw 33 rotates, the two movable seats 34 move in opposite directions or in opposite directions along the axis of the bidirectional lead screw 33 under the drive of the screw. As the two movable seats 34 move in opposite directions, the clamping seats 35 fixed on them also move in opposite directions. Under the preload of the spring 39, the "V" shaped slots on the sides of the clamping jaws 36 contact and hold the can 4 to be sealed. After the can 4 is stably fixed, the lifting assembly 2 drives the clamping assembly 3 to rise as a whole, and the working part of the sealing machine (not shown in the figure) starts to work to seal the can 4. After the capping operation is completed, the lifting component 2 descends, the motor 32 reverses and drives the bidirectional lead screw 33 to rotate in the opposite direction, causing the two movable seats 34 to move the grippers 36 in opposite directions, releasing the capped can 4. The operator or automated equipment can then remove the finished product and place a new can 4 to be capped, starting the next work cycle.

[0033] In this embodiment, the "V"-shaped groove design of the gripper 36 allows it to adapt to cans 4 of different diameters, achieving automatic alignment and ensuring that the can 4 is accurately positioned at the center of the placement platform 313, facilitating alignment with the capping structure of the capping machine. The spring 39 continuously acts on the gripper 36 through the guide rod 38, providing a flexible and uniform clamping force to the can 4, achieving elastic clamping. This effectively prevents damage to the can body due to excessive clamping force or slippage during capping due to insufficient clamping force, thus achieving a stable and non-slip clamping effect.

[0034] In one embodiment, a pressure sensor can also be installed at the clamping seat 35, the clamping claw 36, or the spring 39 to detect the squeezing force of the can 4 on the clamping claw 36 in real time, and output an electrical signal to realize dynamic control of the motor 32, thereby improving the degree of clamping automation and further avoiding squeezing damage to the can 4 by the clamping claw 36.

[0035] Please see Figure 2 and Figure 4 In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, a protective pad 361 is also provided in the "V"-shaped groove opened on the adjacent surfaces of the two grippers 36, and the protective pad 361 is made of elastic material.

[0036] In practical applications, this embodiment uses the protective pad 361 to provide cushioning protection for the surface of the can 4 when the gripper 36 squeezes and fixes it. It can also disperse pressure and further prevent can damage from squeezing.

[0037] Please see Figure 2 and Figure 3 In another preferred embodiment of the present invention, a sliding groove 351 is fixedly provided in the clamp 35 corresponding to its moving direction, and a slider 37 is installed in the sliding groove 351 through sliding cooperation. The slider 37 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the gripper 36.

[0038] In practical application, the slider 37 of this embodiment further limits the movement of the gripper 36, ensuring that the movement trajectory of the gripper 36 is accurate and stable, thereby ensuring the centering effect of the gripper 36 and ensuring that the can 4 is accurately positioned at the center of the placement platform 313, so as to be aligned with the sealing structure of the capping machine.

[0039] Please see Figure 3 In another preferred embodiment of this utility model, a limiting strip 3111 is fixedly provided on the side of the movable groove 311, and a guide groove 341 is fixedly provided on the movable seat 34 at the position corresponding to the limiting strip 3111.

[0040] Furthermore, a second limiting strip 3511 is fixedly provided on the side of the slide groove 351, and a second guide groove 371 is fixedly provided on the slider 37 at the position corresponding to the second limiting strip 3511.

[0041] In practical application, this embodiment uses the engagement of limit bar 3111 with guide groove 341 to limit the movement of the movable seat 34, and the engagement of limit bar 3511 with guide groove 371 to limit the movement of the slider 37, thereby ensuring that the movement trajectory of the movable seat 34 and the slider 37 is accurate and controllable, and ensuring the stable operation of the equipment.
