Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of glass bottle technology, and in particular to a glass bottle sorting device. Background Technology

[0002] Glass bottles, especially cylindrical glass bottles containing reagents, can be inspected by photoelectric sensors to determine if they are full, if the concentration meets requirements, or if the reagents have deteriorated. After inspection, the bottles need to be sorted. Furthermore, before entering the sorting mechanism, it must be ensured that the glass bottles enter the sorting mechanism one by one.

[0003] An existing glass bottle sorting device (publication number: CN211870537U) addresses the aforementioned deficiencies. In operation, the glass bottle is first placed within the limiting strips inside the housing. Then, a motor or other driving element rotates the rotating shaft, causing the turntable to rotate. The glass bottle slides downwards between the limiting strips and falls into the placement groove on the turntable. A fixing block prevents the bottle from sliding out. When the placement groove on the turntable aligns with the recess, the glass bottle slides downwards and falls into the recess, then onto the top plate. A rubber pad on the top plate prevents damage. Simultaneously, the top plate compresses a first spring, causing the sliding plate and fixing column to slide, allowing the glass bottle to fall from the top plate into the discharge chute for easy discharge. The first spring then automatically resets, facilitating repeated operation and providing further shock absorption to prevent breakage from direct falls. After the glass bottles are discharged sequentially from the device, they can be sorted using subsequent sorting equipment.

[0004] However, in the existing technology, glass bottles slide into the placement slot on the turntable below the device through the gap formed between adjacent limiting strips inside the device. However, during the process of the glass bottle sliding into the placement slot along the adjacent limiting strips, it cannot be guaranteed that the central axis of the glass bottle will always be parallel to the direction of the placement slot. Furthermore, if the glass bottle deflects at an angle during its downward slide, it cannot be guaranteed that the glass bottle body will be completely placed inside the placement slot. When the turntable rotates, the partially detached bottle body is prone to rigid collision with the inner wall of the device (such as between the two limiting strips, the box body, or the fixing block), or be stuck or squeezed by the edge of the placement slot, eventually causing the bottle body to break, which in turn affects the subsequent sorting operation of the glass bottles and further affects the overall use effect of the device. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to solve the problems existing in the prior art by proposing a glass bottle sorting device.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model adopts the following technical solution: a glass bottle sorting device, comprising an upper box, a lower box, and a feeding device. The upper box and the lower box are fixedly connected, and a gap exists between the upper box and the lower box for storing the feeding device. Guide rods extending into the upper box are fixedly connected to each corner of the bottom surface of the lower box. A clamping mechanism for holding glass bottles inside the feeding device is slidably connected inside the upper box and along the guide rods. A plurality of driving clamping mechanisms are symmetrically arranged on the inner wall of the upper box. The first electric telescopic rod is height-adjustable. The lower housing has a receiving plate inside and a drive mechanism for rotating the receiving plate on the outer surface of the lower housing. A rotating cavity is opened inside the lower housing and below the receiving plate. A rotating column is rotatably connected inside the rotating cavity. The outer wall of the rotating column has several receiving slots arranged in a circular array parallel to the rotation axis of the rotating column. The lower housing also has an inlet and an outlet communicating with the inside of the rotating cavity. An electric motor for driving the rotating column to rotate is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the lower housing.

[0007] Preferably, the clamping mechanism includes two parallel mounting plates, with a plurality of pairs of connecting rods equidistantly arranged between the two mounting plates. Each connecting rod is rotatably connected to a mounting plate. Each end of the connecting rod is provided with a clamping frame, and a rubber block is provided at the bottom branch of each clamping frame. A brake motor is fixedly connected to the outer surface of one of the mounting plates, and the output shaft of the brake motor is fixedly connected to one end face of one of the connecting rods.

[0008] Preferably, the outer surface of the connecting rod that is fixedly connected to the output shaft of the brake motor is symmetrically provided with two threaded grooves with opposite thread directions, the clamping brackets on both sides are threadedly connected to the connecting rod with the bidirectional threaded grooves on the outer surface, and the clamping brackets on both sides are slidably connected to the remaining connecting rod.

[0009] Preferably, the distance between the rotating shaft of the receiving plate and the feed inlet is equal to the length of the long side of the receiving plate.

[0010] Preferably, the feeding device includes a feeding plate, on both sides of the upper surface of the feeding plate and symmetrically arranged along the long side, two insert blocks are provided, and slots for the insert blocks to slide are provided on the lower surface of both mounting plates. Several placement blocks perpendicular to the distribution direction of the insert blocks are arranged at equal intervals on the upper surface of the mounting plate and between the two insert blocks.

[0011] Preferably, the driving mechanism includes a second electric telescopic rod, a transmission gear, and a transmission rack. The transmission gear is fixedly connected to one side of the rotating shaft of the receiving plate, which passes through the lower housing and extends outward. The second electric telescopic rod is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the lower housing where the transmission gear is located, and the telescopic end of the second electric telescopic rod is vertically downward. The transmission rack is fixedly connected to the telescopic end of the second electric telescopic rod.

[0012] Preferably, two vertically arranged sliding grooves are symmetrically opened on the outer surface of one side of the upper housing that is perpendicular to the insert block. Limiting baffles are slidably connected in both sliding grooves. Limiting holes are opened at corresponding positions on the outer surface of each limiting baffle and the upper housing.

[0013] Preferably, a sponge pad is provided on the upper surface of the receiving plate and between the rotating cavity and the outer wall of the rotating column.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the advantages and positive effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0015] 1. In this utility model, the glass bottle is clamped by the clamping mechanism in the upper box, and the height is adjusted with the first electric telescopic rod to ensure that the glass bottle is kept horizontal and moves down. After the receiving plate receives the glass bottle, the drive mechanism pushes it to rotate and feed the glass bottle. The glass bottle is then transported in an orderly manner through the rotating column receiving slot. This prevents the bottle from deflecting at an angle when it falls, and prevents the bottle from colliding, jamming, squeezing and breaking. This ensures subsequent sorting and improves the efficiency of the device.

[0016] 2. In this utility model, by setting a second electric telescopic rod to extend and retract, the transmission rack moves, and the transmission gear rotates through tooth meshing, thereby precisely controlling the rotation angle and speed of the receiving plate, ensuring that the glass bottle is stably and accurately fed to the inlet, avoiding bottle angle deviation or shaking during the feeding process, further reducing the risk of collision and breakage, and ensuring orderly feeding.

[0026] To better understand the above-mentioned objectives, features, and advantages of this utility model, the present utility model will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described in these embodiments can be combined with each other.

[0027] Many specific details are set forth in the following description in order to provide a full understanding of the present invention. However, the present invention may also be implemented in other ways different from those described herein. Therefore, the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed in the following specification.

[0028] like Figure 1-8 As shown, a glass bottle sorting device includes an upper box 1, a lower box 2, and a feeding device. The upper box 1 and the lower box 2 are fixedly connected, and there is a gap between the upper box 1 and the lower box 2 for storing the feeding device. Guide rods 3 extending into the upper box 1 are fixedly connected to each corner of the bottom surface of the lower box 2. A clamping mechanism for clamping glass bottles in the feeding device is slidably connected inside the upper box 1 and on the guide rods 3. A plurality of first electric telescopic rods for height adjustment of the clamping mechanism are symmetrically arranged on the inner wall of the upper box 1. 4. The lower box 2 is provided with a receiving plate 5 inside. The outer surface of the lower box 2 is provided with a drive mechanism for rotating the receiving plate 5. A rotating cavity 6 is provided inside the lower box 2 and below the receiving plate 5. A rotating column 7 is rotatably connected inside the rotating cavity 6. The outer wall of the rotating column 7 is provided with several receiving slots 8 in a circular array parallel to the rotation axis of the rotating column 7. The lower box 2 is also provided with a feed port 9 and a discharge port 10 that are connected to the inside of the rotating cavity 6. A motor 11 for driving the rotating column 7 to rotate is also fixedly connected to the outer surface of the lower box 2.

[0029] The clamping mechanism includes two parallel mounting plates 12, and several pairs of connecting rods 13 are equidistantly arranged between the two mounting plates 12. Each connecting rod 13 is rotatably connected to the mounting plate 12. Each end of the connecting rod 13 is provided with a clamping frame 14. Each clamping frame 14 is provided with a rubber block 15 at its bottom branch. A brake motor 16 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of one of the mounting plates 12. The output shaft of the brake motor 16 is fixedly connected to one end face of one of the connecting rods 13.

[0030] The outer surface of the connecting rod 13, which is fixedly connected to the output shaft of the brake motor 16, is symmetrically provided with two threaded grooves with opposite thread directions. The clamping brackets 14 on both sides are threadedly connected to the connecting rod 13, which has bidirectional threaded grooves on its outer surface. The clamping brackets 14 on both sides are slidably connected to the remaining connecting rod 13.

[0031] The feeding device includes a feeding plate 17. Two insert blocks 18 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the upper surface of the feeding plate 17 and along the long side. The lower surfaces of the two mounting plates 12 are provided with slots 19 for the insert blocks 18 to slide. Several placement blocks 20 are equidistantly arranged on the upper surface of the mounting plate 12 and between the two insert blocks 18, perpendicular to the distribution direction of the insert blocks 18.

[0032] The specific working process of this solution is as follows: First, the staff places the glass bottles to be sorted one by one on the placement block 20 of the feeding device. The placement block 20 is distributed at equal intervals along the "direction perpendicular to the insertion block 18", which can limit the glass bottles laterally and prevent them from shifting left and right during the movement of the feeding device. Then, the feeding plate 17 of the feeding device is pushed so that the slot 19 on the lower surface of the mounting plate 12 cooperates with the insertion block 18 on the upper surface of the feeding plate 17, and the entire feeding device is pushed into the gap between the upper and lower boxes 2 to complete the pre-loading of the feeding.

[0033] After completion, the first electric telescopic rod 4 on the inner wall of the upper box 1 is activated. The telescopic end of the telescopic rod pushes the clamping mechanism to slide down along the guide rod 3. The guide rod 3 extends from the bottom surface of the lower box 2 to the inside of the upper box 1, providing a stable vertical sliding track for the clamping mechanism and preventing the clamping mechanism from shifting until the clamping frame 14 of the clamping mechanism is lowered to a position that matches the height of the glass bottle on the feeding device. The first electric telescopic rod 4 stops working, and the brake motor 16 of the clamping mechanism is activated. The output shaft of the motor drives the connecting rod 13 with a "bidirectional threaded groove" on its outer surface to rotate. Because the clamping frames 14 on both sides are threadedly connected to the connecting rod 13 and the thread direction is opposite, and at the same time, they are slidably connected to the other connecting rods 13, the clamping frames 14 on both sides move synchronously towards each other along the connecting rod 13 until the rubber block 15 at the bottom branch of the clamping frame 14 is tightly attached to the outer wall of the glass bottle. The brake motor 16 stops, completing the stable clamping of the glass bottle.

[0034] Then, the empty feeding plate 17 is pulled out from the gap on the other side, and the first electric telescopic rod 4 slowly drives the glass bottle to move downward through the clamping mechanism until the bottom of the glass bottle contacts the upper surface of the receiving plate 5. The brake motor 16 rotates in the opposite direction, driving the connecting rod 13 with bidirectional threaded groove to rotate in the opposite direction. The clamping frames on both sides move in the opposite direction synchronously, releasing the glass bottle and completing the transfer of the glass bottle from the feeding device to the receiving plate 5.

[0035] Furthermore, the drive mechanism will drive the receiving plate 5 to rotate and eventually stop at the inlet 9. Then, the motor 11 on the outer surface of the lower box 2 will be started. The motor 11 will drive the rotating column 7 in the rotating cavity 6 to rotate. When a certain receiving slot 8 on the rotating column 7 rotates to align with the inlet 9, the glass bottle that slides in from the inlet 9 will fall into the receiving slot 8, thus completing the storage of the glass bottle.

[0036] Finally, the motor 11 continues to drive the rotating column 7 to rotate. When the receiving slot 8 containing the glass bottle rotates to align with the discharge port 10, the glass bottle slides out of the receiving slot 8 under the action of gravity and is discharged from the lower box 2 through the discharge port 10, completing a single sorting. The rotating column 7 continues to rotate and repeats the above process, thus realizing the continuous sorting of glass bottles.

[0037] like Figure 1 and Figure 7 As shown, the drive mechanism includes a second electric telescopic rod 21, a transmission gear 22, and a transmission rack 23. The transmission gear 22 is fixedly connected to one side of the rotating shaft of the receiving plate 5, which passes through the lower housing 2 and extends outward. The second electric telescopic rod 21 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the lower housing 2 where the transmission gear 22 is located, and the telescopic end of the second electric telescopic rod 21 is vertically downward. The transmission rack 23 is fixedly connected to the telescopic end of the second electric telescopic rod 21.

[0038] The specific working process of this solution is as follows: When the extension end of the second electric telescopic rod 21 moves vertically downward, it drives the transmission rack 23 fixed thereto to move synchronously. The transmission rack 23 meshes with the transmission gear 22 on the rotating shaft of the receiving plate 5, converting linear motion into rotational motion, thereby controlling the rotation angle of the receiving plate 5. This structure can accurately adjust the tilt state of the receiving plate 5, ensuring that the glass bottles on the receiving plate 5 can slide smoothly into the feed port 9 of the lower box 2, avoiding the glass bottles from getting stuck or falling due to improper rotation angle of the receiving plate 5, and improving the smoothness of the sorting process.

[0039] like Figure 6 and Figure 8 As shown, two vertically arranged sliding grooves 24 are symmetrically opened on the outer surface of one side of the upper box 1, which is perpendicular to the insert block 18. Limiting baffles 25 are slidably connected in both sliding grooves 24. Limiting holes 26 are opened at corresponding positions on the outer surface of the upper box 1 and a pair of limiting holes 26 are threadedly connected to limiting bolts 27.

[0040] Further explanation of this solution: Before inserting the feeding plate 17 into the slot 19, the operator drags the two limiting baffles 25 downwards until the limiting baffles 25 block the gaps on the corresponding sides. Then, by inserting the limiting bolts 27 into the two corresponding limiting holes 26, the position of the limiting baffles 25 can be fixed. At this time, the operator can insert the baffle into the slot 19 and push it inwards until the limiting baffles 25 contact the feeding plate 17. At this time, the glass bottles on the placement block 20 are located directly below the clamping frame 14, thereby ensuring that the subsequent clamping mechanism accurately clamps the glass bottles and completes the subsequent sorting operation.

[0041] like Figure 2 As shown, the distance between the rotating shaft of the receiving plate 5 and the feed inlet 9 is equal to the length of the long side of the receiving plate 5.

[0042] The purpose of this solution is that when the receiving plate 5 rotates around the rotating axis to an inclined state, since the distance between the rotating axis and the inlet 9 is equal to the length of the long side of the receiving plate 5, the free end of the receiving plate 5, that is, the end away from the rotating axis, can precisely fit or align with the edge of the inlet 9, forming a smooth "sliding channel" for the glass bottle resting above the receiving plate 5. At this time, the glass bottle on the receiving plate 5 can slide smoothly into the inlet 9 along the inclined plate surface, avoiding the glass bottle getting stuck in the gap or falling and being damaged due to the gap or misalignment between the receiving plate 5 and the inlet 9, and ensuring a seamless connection in the transfer process of the glass bottle from the receiving plate 5 to the rotating cavity 6.

[0043] like Figure 2 As shown, sponge pads 28 are provided on the upper surface of the receiving plate 5 and between the rotating cavity 6 and the outer wall of the rotating column 7.

[0044] The purpose of this solution is: First, when the clamping mechanism places the glass bottle onto the receiving plate 5, the sponge pad 28 can buffer the impact force when the glass bottle falls, avoiding hard contact between the glass bottle and the receiving plate 5 and causing damage. It is especially suitable for sorting scenarios of fragile glass bottles.

[0045] Meanwhile, when the glass bottle enters the receiving tank, during the rotation of the rotating column 7, the glass bottle will come into direct contact with the inner wall of the rotating cavity 6 and generate friction. The sponge pad 28 can effectively reduce the wear on the outer surface of the glass bottle and avoid affecting the appearance of the glass bottle and the screening results.

[0046] The wiring diagrams of the brake motor 16, motor 11, first electric telescopic rod 4, and second electric telescopic rod 21 in this utility model are common knowledge in the field. Their working principles are known technologies. The appropriate model is selected according to actual use. Therefore, the control methods and wiring arrangements of the brake motor 16, motor 11, first electric telescopic rod 4, and second electric telescopic rod 21 will not be explained in detail.

[0047] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model in any other way. Any person skilled in the art may make changes or modifications to the above-disclosed technical content to create equivalent embodiments for application in other fields. However, any simple modifications, equivalent changes, and modifications made to the above embodiments based on the technical essence of the present utility model without departing from the technical solution of the present utility model shall still fall within the protection scope of the technical solution of the present utility model.
