Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of paper cup processing equipment, and in particular to a separating mechanism for water-based coated vessels. Background Technology

[0002] A separator is a device used to individually separate densely packed paper cups or bowls on a conveyor line; it is also known as a cup separator or a single-row conveyor mechanism. It typically uses mechanical structures (such as rotating rollers, guide chutes, or star wheels) or airflow to separate and reposition rows of paper cups that are close together, transforming them into an equidistant, single-row arrangement. This ensures that each paper cup enters the subsequent spraying or printing process in the correct posture and spacing, preparing it for efficient and uniform surface coating treatment.

[0003] However, existing equipment often encounters the following problems during use:

[0004] Before applying the outer surface coating to paper cups or bowls, the rows of paper cups being transported need to be individually separated to create gaps for subsequent spraying. However, existing separation technology cannot accommodate the transition from paper cups to paper bowls. That is, if a bowl with a different diameter is transported after the cups have been separated, the separation cannot be completed. Utility Model Content

[0005] The main objective of this invention is to provide a separating mechanism for water-based coated containers. This effectively solves the problem mentioned in the background art: before applying outer surface coating to paper cups or bowls, it is necessary to individually separate rows of paper cups during transport to create spacing for subsequent spraying. However, existing separating technologies cannot accommodate the transition from paper cups to paper bowls; that is, if a bowl with a different diameter is transported after separating the cups, separation cannot be completed. This invention designs a mechanism that allows for precise setting of the distance between separating baffles through simple lateral sliding of a pull rod, thereby matching the diameter of different containers. After adjustment, a "limiting mechanism" integrating mechanical self-locking and quick release functions instantly and firmly locks the pull rod, ensuring the spacing is maintained under production vibration.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows:

[0007] A separating mechanism for a water-based coated vessel, comprising:

[0008] A crossbeam frame, comprising a support frame and a transverse conveyor frame, wherein at least two support frames are arranged side by side, the top of the support frames supports the transverse conveyor frame, and the conveying surface of the transverse conveyor frame is a slope;

[0009] An opening is formed on the conveying surface of the transverse conveyor frame;

[0010] The separator is provided in at least two parts, and the center points of the arc-shaped ends of the two separators are respectively movably connected to the two sides of the transverse conveyor frame;

[0011] A tension opening is provided at the top of each of the partitions;

[0012] A tie rod, the number of which corresponds to the number of the separator, with one end of each tie rod passing through a tie opening;

[0013] A limiting mechanism is installed on one side of the separator.

[0014] Also includes:

[0015] The other ends of the two tension rods are fixedly connected to the body of the lower pressure plate;

[0016] The upper partition plate, the top of which is fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the lower pressure plate;

[0017] The lower linkage plate has its two ends fixedly connected to the bottom ports of the two separators, respectively.

[0018] An upper baffle, the bottom end of which is fixedly connected to the lower linkage plate;

[0019] A drive motor is mounted below the transverse conveyor frame;

[0020] A cam is mounted on the output end of the drive motor, and the side wheel surface of the cam contacts the bottom surface of the lower linkage plate.

[0021] The limiting mechanism further includes:

[0022] The outer casing is cylindrical, and one end of the outer casing is connected to one side of the separator.

[0023] A connector, which passes through the interior of the housing and extends to contact the tie rod;

[0024] A cavity is formed between the connector and the inner wall of the outer casing;

[0025] A reset spring is located inside the cavity and is sleeved on the connector.

[0026] A positioning screw, which passes through the inside of the connector and is threadedly connected to the outer casing;

[0027] A positioning port is provided on the end side of the connector;

[0028] A positioning steel ball is located inside the positioning port and contacts the tapered insertion end of the positioning screw;

[0029] A positioning protrusion is provided on the inner wall of the insertion end of the outer casing.

[0030] The separator is connected to the transverse conveyor frame by a hinge.

[0031] The insertion end of the positioning screw is tapered.

[0032] The side of the separator is C-shaped.

[0033] The length of the upper baffle is less than the width of the opening.

[0034] Compared with existing technologies, the advantages of this invention are as follows: This invention allows for simple lateral sliding of a pull rod to adjust the distance between the dividing baffles, thus matching the opening diameters of different containers. After adjustment, a "limiting mechanism" integrating mechanical self-locking and quick release functions instantly and firmly locks the pull rod, ensuring stable spacing for the adjusted container opening diameter. This allows the same device to switch from paper cups to paper bowls within one minute without replacing any parts, achieving a "one-click" precise adaptation of the dividing spacing.

[0043] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0044] In the description of this utility model, it should be noted that, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "set," "connected," and "linked" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal connection of two components. Those skilled in the art will understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model according to the specific circumstances.

[0045] like Figure 1-6 As shown, this utility model provides a separating mechanism for water-based coated vessels. The separating mechanism for water-based coated vessels includes a crossbeam frame 1, a support frame 101, a transverse conveying frame 102, an opening 2, a separator 3, a pull-out opening 4, a pull-out rod 5, a limiting mechanism 6, a lower pressure plate 7, and an upper separator 8.

[0046] The crossbeam frame 1 includes a support frame 101 and a transverse conveyor frame 102. At least two support frames 101 are arranged side by side, and the top of the support frame 101 supports the transverse conveyor frame 102. The conveying surface of the transverse conveyor frame 102 is a slope, and an opening 2 is opened on the conveying surface of the transverse conveyor frame 102. At least two separators 3 are provided, and the center points of the arc-shaped ends of the two separators 3 are respectively movably connected to the two sides of the transverse conveyor frame 102. The connection between the separators 3 and the transverse conveyor frame 102 is a hinge. The side of the separator 3 is C-shaped, and a tension opening 4 is opened on the top of each separator 3. The number of tension rods 5 corresponds to the number of separators 3, and one end of each tension rod 5 passes through a tension opening 4. A limiting mechanism 6 is installed on one side of the separator 3.

[0047] In this invention, the other ends of both tension rods 5 are fixedly connected to the body of the lower pressure plate 7, the top of the upper partition plate 8 is fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the lower pressure plate 7, both ends of the lower linkage plate 9 are fixedly connected to the bottom ports of the two partitions 3 respectively, and the bottom end of the upper baffle 10 is fixedly connected to the lower linkage plate 9; the length of the upper baffle 10 is less than the width of the opening 2; in the smooth section of the cam 12, the partition system falls due to its own weight. At this time, the upper partition plate 8 descends, blocking the subsequent rows of containers; while the upper baffle 10 descends from the opening 2 of the conveying surface, without interfering with the flow of containers. The first container is in the "awaiting release" position.

[0048] In this utility model, such as Figure 4 As shown, the drive motor 11 is mounted below the transverse conveyor frame 102, and the cam 12 is installed at the output end of the drive motor 11. The side wheel surface of the cam 12 contacts the bottom surface of the lower linkage plate 9. When the protrusion of the cam 12 pushes up the lower linkage plate 9, the entire separator 3 flips upward around the connection point with the transverse conveyor frame 102. This action simultaneously causes two results: first, the upper separator 8 is lifted, releasing the obstruction to the foremost container, which rolls down the ramp due to gravity, completing a single conveying. Second, the upper baffle 10 rises and passes through the opening 2, its top end higher than the conveying surface, forming a new blocking point that blocks the second container immediately following it. The cam 12 continues to rotate, the mechanism falls back to the "blocking state," the upper separator 8 blocks the subsequent container flow again, and the upper baffle 10 descends, preparing for the next separation cycle. This cycle repeats continuously, achieving intermittent single separation of containers.

[0049] In this invention, the spacing between the partitions, i.e., the size of the container opening, depends on the horizontal distance between the upper partition plate 8 and the upper baffle plate 10. This distance is determined by the position of the pull rod 5 within the pull opening 4 of the partition 3. When a larger diameter container needs to be accommodated, the operator pulls the pull rod 5 outward, causing the lower pressure plate 7 and the upper partition plate 8 to move outward together, thereby increasing the distance between them and the fixed upper baffle plate 10. After adjustment, the position of the pull rod 5 is locked by the limiting mechanism 6, and the partitioning operation for the new container size can begin.

[0050] In this utility model, such as Figure 6As shown, the outer shell 61 is cylindrical, with one end of the outer shell 61 connected to one side of the separator 3. The plug 62 passes through the interior of the outer shell 61 and extends to contact the tension rod 5. A cavity 63 is formed between the plug 62 and the inner wall of the outer shell 61. A return spring 64 is located in the cavity 63 and is sleeved on the plug 62. A positioning screw 65 passes through the interior of the plug 62 and is threadedly connected to the outer shell 61. The plug end of the positioning screw 65 is tapered, and a positioning port 66 is formed on the end side of the plug 62. A positioning ball 67 is located in the positioning port 66 and contacts the tapered plug end of the positioning screw 65. A positioning protrusion 68 is provided on the inner wall of the plug end of the outer shell 61. The operator can adjust the upper partition plate 8 to the ideal position according to the precise diameter of the container to achieve the best blocking effect, avoid the "about the same" situation caused by the scale interval, and improve the accuracy of the separation.

[0051] In this invention, the mechanism can adapt to a wide range of containers with varying diameters, enhancing the equipment's versatility. When the connector 62, under the combined action of the spring and the locking mechanism, continuously and firmly presses against the pull rod 5, it effectively eliminates the clearance between the pull rod 5 and the pull opening 4. This "zero-clearance" locking ensures that the position of the upper partition plate 8 will not change at all under the impact of the cam 12's cyclical movement, thus guaranteeing the stability and repeatability of each partitioning action.

[0052] It should be noted that, in the initial state of use, the cam 12 of the drive motor 11 is in a flat section, and the separation system is in a "blocking state." Rows of containers are close together on the slope. The foremost container is blocked by the upper partition plate 8. After starting the drive motor 11, the cam 12 rotates, and the protruding part contacts and lifts the lower linkage plate 9. The rise of the lower linkage plate 9 forces the two C-shaped separators 3 to rotate upwards with their central connection point as the axis. The upper partition plate 8, linked to the separators 3, is lifted, releasing the foremost container, which rolls downstream. Simultaneously, the upper baffle 10, fixed to the lower linkage plate 9, rises, passes through the opening 2, and blocks the second container immediately following behind. The cam 12 rotates past the protruding part, and the pushing force disappears. The entire separation system falls back under gravity, returning to the "initial state." The upper baffle 10 descends, and the container blocked by the upper baffle 10 rolls to the front of the upper partition plate 8, becoming the next container to be released. The cycle is complete, awaiting the next lift of cam 12. This completes the pull distance. When the production line switches from paper cups to paper bowls with different diameters, the following adjustment procedure is followed: The operator rotates the positioning screw 65, causing its tapered end to retract, thus eliminating the pressure on the positioning steel ball 67. Under the restoring force of the return spring 64, the connector 62 is pushed outward, disengaging its end from the pull distance rod 5. The pull distance rod 5 is now in a freely sliding state. The operator pulls the pull distance rod 5 outward or inward according to the diameter of the new container paper bowl, directly changing the position of the upper partition plate 8, thereby adjusting its distance from the upper baffle 10 until the requirements are met. The operator pushes the connector 62 inward, causing its end to press firmly against the side wall of the pull distance rod 5. During this process, the return spring 64 is compressed, accumulating restoring force. Maintaining the inward push state of the connector 62, the positioning screw 65 is tightened. The tapered end of the positioning screw 65 moves forward, gradually pressing the positioning steel ball 67 outward until it engages with the positioning protrusion 68 inside the outer casing 61. Because the steel ball is mechanically locked, even if the hand is released, the return force of the return spring 64 cannot cause the connector 62 to retract, thus achieving absolute fixation of the tension rod 5. After the adjustment to the appropriate diameter is completed and the locking is confirmed to be secure, the equipment can be started to begin separating containers of the new size.
