Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of vial production equipment technology, and in particular to a vial capping device. Background Technology

[0002] Vials, also known as borosilicate glass or soda-lime glass controlled injection vials, are small bottles with rubber stoppers. They come in various colors, including brown and transparent, with borosilicate glass vials being the mainstream product on the market. Because the substances stored in vials require a high degree of cleanliness, the capping process needs to avoid contamination caused by traditional manual methods. Automated capping equipment is used, but due to the small size of the vial opening, precise fitting between the end cap and the vial is crucial. Therefore, a vial capping device is urgently needed to solve these problems. Utility Model Content

[0003] In view of the shortcomings of the prior art described above, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a vial capping device to solve the problem of capping vials in the prior art.

[0004] To achieve the above and other related objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: A vial sealing device, comprising: The machine is equipped with a conveyor frame, and a multi-station turntable is provided on one side of the conveyor frame on the machine. The multi-station turntable extends to the upper side of the conveyor frame and is used to convey vials on the conveyor frame to the capping working surface. The material platform is located on one side of the machine. A loading rack extends to the opposite side of the conveyor frame and above the multi-station turntable. A guide platform is located on the lower side of the loading rack. Two sets of opposing guide covers are located on one side of the guide platform. A guide cover drive is located on the guide platform, driving the two sets of guide covers to move relative to each other. When the two sets of guide covers are in contact, they form a frustum-shaped guide cover body. An arc-shaped opening is provided at the bottom of each set of guide covers. When the end cap needs to be lowered onto the vial, the end cap falls into the guide cover body, and the arc-shaped opening limits the upper half of the end cap. Then, the two sets of guide covers are opened, allowing the end cap to fall into the lowered vial.

[0005] To achieve the above technical solution, the conveyor rack transports vials to the multi-station turntable, which then transports the vials to the capping work surface for subsequent capping operations. End caps within the material platform are transported to the top of the guide platform via the loading rack. At this point, the material cover drive unit drives two sets of guide covers to move in relative contact, forming a frustum-shaped guide cover. The arc-shaped opening at the bottom of the guide cover is located above the vial to be capped. The arc-shaped openings of the two sets of guide covers form a circular guide hole. When the end cap falls into the guide cover, it is guided smoothly into the vial by the frustum-shaped guide cover, facilitating subsequent end cap processing. This process avoids contamination caused by manual operation, ensuring cleanliness during the capping process and improving capping efficiency.

[0006] In one embodiment of the present invention, a feeding rod is provided on the feeding rack extending to the upper side of the multi-station turntable, and a feeding platform connected to the material outlet end of the material platform is provided on the feeding rod, and the guiding platform is provided on the feeding rod below the feeding platform.

[0007] To achieve the above technical solution, the end caps from the discharge end of the feeding platform are received by the feeding platform on the feeding rod, which can keep the end caps falling onto the vials in an orderly manner. At the same time, the guide platform is set on the feeding rod below the feeding platform, which can improve the stability of the cooperation between the two and facilitate the guiding of the end caps falling.

[0008] In one embodiment of the present invention, both the feeding platform and the guide platform are detachably mounted on the feeding rod.

[0009] To achieve the above technical solution, the guide platform and feeding platform are set on the feeding rod, which allows for easy adjustment of the height of the guide platform and feeding platform, thereby better matching the capping requirements of vials of different sizes.

[0010] In one embodiment of the present invention, a feeding drive is provided on one side of the feeding platform, and a feeding track is provided inside the feeding platform. The width of the feeding track is smaller than the maximum radial dimension of the end cap. The feeding drive drives the end cap conveyed to the feeding platform to move along the feeding track to the upper side of the sealing working surface.

[0011] To achieve the above technical solution, by setting a feeding track and setting the width of the feeding track to be smaller than the maximum radial dimension of the end cap, the feeding track can guide the conveying of the end cap and prevent the end cap from falling off the feeding track. Thus, under the drive of the feeding drive unit, the end cap moves along the feeding track to the upper side of the sealing working surface.

[0012] In one embodiment of the present invention, the end of the feeding track is provided with a discharge opening, the radial dimension of which is greater than the maximum radial dimension of the end cap, so that the end cap can fall from the discharge opening into the lowered guide cover under the action of gravity.

[0013] To achieve the above technical solution, by setting the radial dimension of the discharge opening to be greater than the maximum radial dimension of the end cover, the end cover can fall from the discharge opening into the lowered guide cover under the action of gravity when it moves along the feeding track to the discharge opening, thus ensuring the conveying stability of the end cover.

[0014] In one embodiment of the present invention, the movable end of the feeding drive is provided with a feeding guide block, and a limiting groove is provided at the feeding guide block, the size of which matches the maximum radial dimension of the end cover.

[0015] To achieve the above technical solution, the setting of the limiting groove allows one end cap to enter the feeding guide block when the feeding guide block moves to the loading rack to receive the end cap, thereby facilitating the feeding guide block to subsequently transport the end cap to the discharge opening and drop it.

[0016] In one embodiment of the present invention, an end cover is provided on the multi-station turntable near the material platform, and the opening end of the end cover extends to the upper side of the conveyor frame.

[0017] By implementing the above technical solution, the end cap can provide support for the transport of vials on the multi-station turntable, ensuring the stability of the vial transport.

[0018] In one embodiment of the present invention, a capping gripper is provided on the machine base near the output end of the multi-station turntable for tightening the end cap onto the vial.

[0019] As described above, the vial capping device provided by this utility model has the following beneficial effects: After the end cap falls into the guide hood, under the guidance of the frustum-shaped guide hood, the end cap can fall smoothly into the vial, thus facilitating subsequent end cap processing. This process avoids contamination caused by manual operation, ensures cleanliness during the capping process, and improves capping efficiency. The material hood drive drives two sets of guide hoods to move in relative contact, forming a frustum-shaped guide hood. The width of the feeding track is set to be smaller than the maximum radial dimension of the end cap, which can guide the conveying of the end cap using the feeding track and prevent the end cap from falling off the feeding track. Thus, under the drive of the feeding drive, the end cap moves along the feeding track to the upper side of the capping working surface. Attached Figure Description

[0027] Please see Figures 1 to 4 This utility model provides a vial capping device, including a machine base 1, a conveyor frame 3 set on the machine base 1, and a multi-station turntable 2 set on one side of the conveyor frame 3 on the machine base 1. The multi-station turntable 2 extends to the upper side of the conveyor frame 3 and is used to convey vials on the conveyor frame 3 to the capping working surface. The conveyor frame 3 conveys the vials to the multi-station turntable 2, and the multi-station turntable 2 is used to convey the vials to the capping working surface for subsequent capping operations.

[0028] The material platform 4 is located on one side of the machine base 1. A loading rack 5 extends from the material platform 4 to the opposite side of the conveyor frame 3 and above the multi-station turntable 2. A guide platform 6 is located below the loading rack 5. Two sets of opposing guide covers 7 are located on one side of the guide platform 6. A cover drive 8 is installed on the guide platform 6. The cover drive 8 drives the two sets of guide covers 7 to move relative to each other. When the two sets of guide covers 7 are in contact, they form a frustum-shaped guide cover body. The end caps inside the material platform 4 are conveyed to the top of the guide platform 6 via the loading rack 5. At that time, the cover drive 8 drives the two sets of guide covers 7 to move relative to each other. The bottom of each of the two sets of guide covers 7 is provided with an arc-shaped opening 9. The arc-shaped openings 9 of the two sets of guide covers 7 form a circular guide hole. When the end cap needs to be placed on the vial, the end cap falls into the guide cover body. Under the guidance of the frustum-shaped guide cover body, the lower half of the end cap can fall smoothly into the vial. The arc-shaped opening 9 limits the upper half of the end cap. Then the two sets of guide covers 7 are opened to let the end cap fall into the vial, which facilitates the subsequent process operation of the end cap. This process avoids the contamination caused by manual operation, ensures the cleanliness of the capping process, and improves the capping efficiency.

[0029] A feeding rod 10 is provided on the feeding rack 5 extending to the upper side of the multi-station turntable 2. A feeding platform 11 connected to the discharge end of the material platform 4 is provided on the feeding rod 10. A guide platform 6 is provided on the feeding rod 10 below the feeding platform 11. The feeding platform 11 on the feeding rod 10 receives the end caps from the discharge end of the material platform 4, which can keep the end caps falling onto the vials in an orderly manner. At the same time, the guide platform 6 is provided on the feeding rod 10 below the feeding platform 11, which can improve the stability of the cooperation between the two and facilitate the guiding treatment of the end caps falling.

[0030] Both the feeding platform 11 and the guide platform 6 are detachably mounted on the feeding rod 10. The guide platform 6 and the feeding platform 11 are mounted on the feeding rod 10, which allows for easy adjustment of their heights, thus better matching the capping requirements of vials of different sizes.

[0031] A feeding drive unit 12 is provided on one side of the feeding platform 11, and a feeding track 13 is provided inside the feeding platform 11. The width of the feeding track 13 is smaller than the maximum radial dimension of the end cap. By setting the feeding track 13 and making its width smaller than the maximum radial dimension of the end cap, the feeding track 13 can guide the conveying of the end cap and prevent the end cap from falling off the feeding track 13. The feeding drive unit 12 drives the end cap conveyed to the feeding platform 11 to move along the feeding track 13 to the upper side of the sealing working surface.

[0032] The end of the feeding track 13 is provided with a discharge opening 14. The radial dimension of the discharge opening 14 is greater than the maximum radial dimension of the end cover. By setting the radial dimension of the discharge opening 14 to be greater than the maximum radial dimension of the end cover, when the end cover moves along the feeding track 13 to the discharge opening 14, the end cover can fall from the discharge opening 14 into the lowered guide cover 7 under the action of gravity, thus ensuring the conveying stability of the end cover.

[0033] The movable end of the feeding drive component 12 is provided with a feeding guide block 15. A limiting groove 16 is provided at the feeding guide block 15. The size of the limiting groove 16 matches the maximum radial size of the end cap. The setting of the limiting groove 16 allows an end cap to enter the feeding guide block 15 when the feeding guide block 15 moves to the loading rack 5 to receive the end cap, thereby facilitating the feeding guide block 15 to subsequently transport the end cap to the discharge opening 14 to fall.

[0034] An end cap 17 is provided on the side of the multi-station turntable 2 near the material platform 4. The open end of the end cap 17 extends to the upper side of the conveyor frame 3. The end cap 17 can support the conveying of vials on the multi-station turntable 2 and ensure the conveying stability of the vials.

[0035] A capping gripper 18 is provided on the machine base 1 near the output end of the multi-station turntable 2, which is used to tighten the end cap onto the vial.

[0036] After the end cap falls into the guide shroud 7, it is guided by the frustum-shaped guide shroud 7 and falls smoothly into the vial, which facilitates subsequent end cap processing. This process avoids contamination caused by manual operation, ensures cleanliness during the capping process, and improves capping efficiency. The material shroud drive 8 drives the two sets of guide shrouds 7 to move in relative contact, forming a frustum-shaped guide shroud 7. The width of the feeding track 13 is set to be smaller than the maximum radial dimension of the end cap, so that the feeding track 13 can guide the end cap and prevent it from falling off the feeding track 13. Thus, under the drive of the feeding drive 12, the end cap moves along the feeding track 13 to the upper side of the capping working surface.

[0037] The above embodiments are merely illustrative of the principles and effects of this utility model and are not intended to limit the scope of this utility model. Any person skilled in the art can modify or alter the above embodiments without departing from the spirit and scope of this utility model. Therefore, all equivalent modifications or alterations made by those skilled in the art without departing from the spirit and technical concept disclosed in this utility model should still be covered by the claims of this utility model.
