Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of conveying technology, specifically to a bottle conveying line. Background Technology

[0002] In modern industrial production, bottle conveyor lines play a crucial role, efficiently and systematically transporting various types of bottles from one production stage to another, greatly improving production efficiency and meeting the needs of large-scale production.

[0003] Traditional bottle conveyor lines typically consist of a support frame, a conveyor belt, and fixed guardrails. During operation, the bottles move directionally along the conveyor belt, and the rigid guardrails on both sides prevent the bottles from falling.

[0004] With the continuous changes in market demand and the increasing diversification of bottle shapes and sizes, the limitations of traditional conveyor lines with their fixed protective structures are becoming increasingly apparent. Because the protective barriers are fixed in position, it is difficult to flexibly adjust the protective space according to the size, height, width, and shape of different bottles. Furthermore, if the gap between the fixed protective structure and the bottle is not reasonable, bottle jamming, tipping, and even product blockage and falling can easily occur during conveying. This not only affects bottle production efficiency but also accelerates the wear and tear of related components on the conveyor line, reducing its service life. Therefore, a bottle conveyor line is proposed to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0005] To address the aforementioned shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides a bottle conveyor line that effectively solves the problems of fixed guardrail positions in traditional conveyor lines, making it difficult to flexibly adjust the protective space according to the size, height, width, and shape of different bottles. Furthermore, if the gap between the fixed protective structure and the bottle is not reasonable, bottle jamming, bottle tipping, or even product blockage and falling may easily occur during the conveying process. This not only affects the production efficiency of the bottles but also accelerates the wear of related components of the conveyor line and reduces the service life of the conveyor line.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: This utility model provides a bottle conveying line, comprising: A support frame and a conveyor belt mounted on the support frame for conveying bottles, wherein a guardrail assembly is provided on the conveyor belt, the guardrail assembly comprising: A guardrail unit includes at least two sets of flexible guardrails spaced apart along the conveying direction and a flexible connecting plate connecting the flexible guardrails. The limiting unit is adjustablely mounted on the support frame via a lifting structure. It includes a trapezoidal slider and a limiting block fixedly mounted on the outer wall of the connecting plate, and a trapezoidal groove opened on the outer wall of the limiting block and matching the trapezoidal slider. The trapezoidal slider is slidably connected in the trapezoidal groove.

[0007] Preferably, the flexible guardrail assembly includes a first guardrail, a second guardrail, and a third guardrail, all of unequal length.

[0008] Preferably, a fixing plate is fixedly provided on the outer wall of the conveyor belt, and a positioning rod is fixedly provided on the top of the fixing plate, and the connecting plate is slidably connected to the outside of the positioning rod.

[0009] Preferably, the lifting structure includes a fixed block fixed to the top of the support frame and a lead screw rotatably connected to the top of the fixed block via a bearing, wherein the limiting block is threadedly connected to the outer wall of the lead screw.

[0010] Preferably, a guide rod is fixedly provided on the top of the fixing block, and the limiting block is slidably connected to the outer wall of the guide rod.

[0011] Preferably, an adjusting block is fixedly provided on the top of the lead screw.

[0012] Preferably, the inner wall of the trapezoidal slide is provided with a groove, and the inner wall of the groove is rotatably connected to a pulley via a rotating shaft, and the pulley makes rolling contact with the surface of the trapezoidal slider.

[0013] The technical solution provided by this utility model has the following advantages compared with the known prior art: In this invention, a guardrail unit consisting of multiple flexible guardrails of varying lengths connected in series by a flexible connecting plate is provided. This unit is then combined with a lifting structure that can slide along a positioning rod. This allows the operator to easily adjust the protective height of the guardrail unit by rotating the adjusting block to drive the lead screw and the limiting block. This flexibly adapts to the protection requirements of bottles of different sizes. The flexible guardrail moves synchronously with the conveyor belt and forms a dynamic and flexible protective enclosure around the bottle, effectively buffering collisions and correcting tilting. This significantly reduces problems such as bottle jamming, tipping, blockage, and falling, and improves the conveyor line's adaptability to diverse bottle types, operational stability, and production efficiency.

Detailed Implementation

[0017] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some, not all, of the embodiments of this utility model. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this utility model without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.

[0018] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the embodiments.

[0019] See attached document Figure 1-5 A bottle conveying line, comprising: The system includes a support frame 1 and a conveyor belt 2 mounted on the support frame 1 for transporting bottles. The support frame 1 bears the weight of the entire conveyor line and the various forces generated by the bottles during transport, ensuring the stability and reliability of the conveyor line structure. The conveyor belt 2 is driven by a power device and is responsible for carrying and continuously transporting the bottles, enabling the bottles to move between workstations. The conveyor belt 2 is an existing mature structure, so it will not be described in detail here. The conveyor belt 2 is equipped with a guardrail assembly, which includes: The guardrail unit includes at least two sets of flexible guardrails spaced apart along the conveying direction and a flexible connecting plate 3 connecting the flexible guardrails, connecting each guardrail into a whole, and also serving as a connector between the entire guardrail unit and the positioning rod 401, realizing the positioning and relative sliding adjustment of the guardrail unit on the conveyor belt 2. The limiting unit is adjustablely mounted on the support frame 1 via a lifting structure. It includes a trapezoidal slider 304 and a limiting block 5 fixedly mounted on the outer wall of the connecting plate 3, and a trapezoidal groove 501 opened on the outer wall of the limiting block 5 and matching the trapezoidal slider 304. The trapezoidal slider 304 is slidably connected in the trapezoidal groove 501 and slides along the trapezoidal groove 501. The trapezoidal structure ensures the stability and accuracy of the sliding and prevents the connecting plate 3 from shifting or falling off during the sliding process.

[0020] The flexible guardrail assembly includes a first guardrail 301, a second guardrail 302, and a third guardrail 303, all of unequal length. Made of flexible material, the flexible guardrail assembly absorbs collisions and vibrations generated during bottle transport, preventing damage to the bottle or scratches on the label from hard impacts. By setting them to unequal lengths, a wave-like protective front is formed, allowing for gentler and more gradual guidance and correction of skewed bottles, thus improving the protective effect. When the bottle is transported on the conveyor belt 2, the first guardrail 301, the second guardrail 302, and the third guardrail 303 surround the bottle. Due to their flexibility, they adapt to changes in the shape and position of the bottle to a certain extent, while preventing the bottle from moving outwards, thus providing protection.

[0021] A fixed plate 4 is fixedly installed on the outer wall of the conveyor belt 2, and a positioning rod 401 is fixedly installed on the top of the fixed plate 4. The connecting plate 3 is slidably connected to the outside of the positioning rod 401. During operation, the conveyor belt 2 moves to drive the fixed plate 4 and the positioning rod 401 to move, thereby causing the flexible guardrail assembly to move as a whole with the movement of the conveyor belt 2. This realizes the dynamic protection function during the bottle conveying process, effectively preventing the bottle from falling or colliding during the conveying process, and ensuring the smooth progress of the bottle conveying. The connecting plate 3 is sleeved on the outside of the positioning rod 401. During the sliding process, the positioning rod 401 restricts the movement direction of the connecting plate 3, so that it can only slide along the axis of the positioning rod 401.

[0022] The lifting structure includes a fixed block 601 fixed to the top of the support frame 1 and a lead screw 6 rotatably connected to the top of the fixed block 601 via a bearing. A limiting block 5 is threadedly connected to the outer wall of the lead screw 6. A guide rod 602 is fixedly installed on the top of the fixed block 601. The limiting block 5 is slidably connected to the outer wall of the guide rod 602. When the lead screw 6 is rotated, since the limiting block 5 is threadedly connected to the lead screw 6 and the limiting block 5 cannot rotate with the lead screw 6 under the restriction of the guide rod 602, the limiting block 5 will move linearly along the axis of the lead screw 6 to achieve height adjustment. When the limiting block 5 moves up and down, the trapezoidal slide 501 moves up and down accordingly. The inner wall of the trapezoidal slide 501 pushes and pulls the trapezoidal slider 304, so that the entire guardrail unit moves up and down synchronously with the limiting block 5, thereby adjusting the protective position to flexibly adapt to the product.

[0023] An adjusting block 603 is fixedly installed on the top of the lead screw 6 for easy adjustment by the operator.

[0024] The inner wall of the trapezoidal slide groove 501 has a groove, and the inner wall of the groove is rotatably connected to a pulley 502 via a rotating shaft. The pulley 502 makes rolling contact with the surface of the trapezoidal slider 304. When the trapezoidal slider 304 slides in the trapezoidal slide groove 501, it contacts the surface of the pulley 502. The pulley 502 rotates freely via the rotating shaft, converting the sliding friction between the trapezoidal slider 304 and the trapezoidal slide groove 501 into the rolling friction of the pulley 502, thereby reducing the friction force.

[0025] Working principle: During use, the height can be adjusted according to the required bottle specifications. This is achieved by rotating the adjusting block 603 to drive the lead screw 6 to rotate. Since the limiting block 5 is threadedly connected to the lead screw 6 and cannot rotate under the constraint of the guide rod 602, the limiting block 5 rises and falls vertically along the axis of the lead screw 6, achieving initial height setting. The rising and falling of the limiting block 5 is driven by the trapezoidal slide groove 501 on its side wall, which in turn drives the matching trapezoidal slider 304 to move synchronously. The flexible connecting plate 3, fixedly connected to the trapezoidal slider 304, transmits the rising and falling motion to the entire baffle unit. The connecting plate 3 slides vertically along the positioning rod 401 fixed to the side frame of the conveyor belt 2 through its guide hole. Once the baffle unit is adjusted to the appropriate height, the conveyor belt 2 begins to transport bottles under the drive of the driving equipment. The body consists of multiple sets of flexible guardrails arranged on the connecting plate 3 and spaced apart along the conveying direction. The first guardrail 301, the second guardrail 302, and the third guardrail 303 move synchronously with the connecting plate 3 and the fixed plate 4 along the conveying direction to form dynamic protection. The flexible guardrails of different lengths form a wave-shaped protective front edge. Their flexible material can adapt to changes in the shape of the bottle. When the bottle may deviate, it can buffer and guide through elastic deformation, effectively correcting the tilted bottle and preventing it from being damaged or scratched by hard collision with rigid parts. The pulley 502 set in the trapezoidal slide 501 forms rolling contact with the trapezoidal slider 304, which significantly reduces frictional resistance and makes height adjustment more effortless and smooth. At the same time, it ensures that the guardrail unit moves smoothly during dynamic protection.

[0026] The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model, and are not intended to limit it. Although this utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some of the technical features. Such modifications or substitutions will not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the protection scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model.
