Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model specifically relates to the field of water cup separation technology, and more specifically to a separation device for feeding paper cups. Background Technology

[0002] Disposable paper cups have limited heat resistance. The water level line is usually marked with "maximum safe water level" to prevent scalding from overflow when boiling water is poured in. It also reduces the risk of deformation and leakage caused by excessive liquid weight. Hot drinks will cause the air inside the cup to expand when heated. The reserved space below the water level line can relieve pressure and prevent the cup from bulging and cracking, thus reducing the risk of leakage.

[0003] Therefore, when drawing the highest water level line on a disposable paper cup, the processed paper cups need to be fed one by one to facilitate drawing the line on each cup individually.

[0004] Chinese Patent Application No. 200420070929.3 discloses an automatic cup dispensing device, comprising a support frame, a drive motor and multiple separating gears above the support frame, wherein the multiple separating gears are arranged along the periphery of the cup body so that the rolled edge of the cup body can be locked onto the separating gears, the separating gears are fixed on a rotating shaft and can rotate around the rotating shaft; a synchronous belt is mounted on the drive motor and the separating gears to drive the separating gears to rotate.

[0005] Although the automatic cup dispensing device in the aforementioned patent dispenses cups automatically and one by one, the solution uses four separating gears. As shown in the figure, the transmission wrap angle between the two gears closest to the motor and the synchronous belt is less than 120 degrees. Because it does not have a sufficient wrap angle, it cannot be driven normally to separate the paper cups. Furthermore, the conventional tooth profile of the toothed belt is trapezoidal or arc-shaped, while the tooth profile of the gear is involute, so it cannot guarantee its normal rotational operation. Utility Model Content

[0006] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a separating device for feeding paper cups, which uses a gear ring to drive the gear to rotate synchronously to achieve the separation of paper cups, thereby ensuring the consistency of the rotation of multiple separating plates and enabling the paper cups to be separated one by one smoothly; in order to solve the technical problems mentioned in the background art.

[0007] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: A paper cup feeding separation device includes a fixed base shell on which at least three separation components are arranged in a circular array; each separation component includes a driven gear mounted on a rotating shaft, and a mounting plate is coaxially provided on the bottom side of the driven gear; a separation plate is fixed to the bottom of the mounting plate. The separation plate is C-shaped, with one end being a flat end a and the other end being a raised end b; The lower end of the shaft is mounted on the fixed base shell via a bearing. The driven gears in the multiple separation components are all meshed with the gear ring; the gear ring is also meshed with the driving gear.

[0008] As a further technical solution of this utility model, the toothed ring is rotatably connected inside the slip ring; the longitudinal section of the slip ring is C-shaped; and the slip ring is fixed to the outside of the fixing frame.

[0009] As a further technical solution of this utility model, the fixing frame is provided in three parts, each of which is arranged in an arc shape and is arranged and fixed in a ring array along the fixing base shell.

[0010] As a further technical solution of this utility model, an outer shell is also fastened above the two fixing brackets; the outer shell is fixed to the fixing base shell by countersunk bolts; three studs are arranged in a ring array on the top of the outer shell to facilitate the fixing of the fixing ring, and nuts are installed on the top of the studs.

[0011] As a further technical solution of this utility model, a feeding cage is fixed on the outer shell; the feeding cage is welded from multiple galvanized metal rods, and the inner diameter of the feeding cage is not less than the outer diameter of the paper cup being processed.

[0012] As a further technical solution of this utility model, the active gear is mounted on the transmission shaft, and the transmission shaft is mounted to the fixed base shell through bearings; the lower end of the transmission shaft is connected to the drive motor; the drive motor and the bracket are fixed by a motor mounting bracket; and the upper end of the bracket is fixed to the outer shell by bolts.

[0013] As a further technical solution of this utility model, the upper end of the feeding cage is set in an open shape.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are: 1. In this utility model, when separating paper cups, the driving gear drives the gear ring to rotate. Since the driven gears in multiple separation components are meshed with the gear ring, the rotation of the gear ring will drive multiple driven gears to rotate synchronously. The rotation of the driven gears will drive the mounting plate and the separation plate to rotate. When the separation plate rotates, its flat end a stops the outer edge of the paper cup mouth, and the raised end b inserts into the gap between two adjacent paper cups. As the separation plate continues to rotate, the paper cup at the bottom will be separated from the nested paper cups, realizing the separation of paper cups one by one and ensuring the stability and consistency of the separation. 2. This utility model adopts a method of synchronous rotation of gears driven by a gear ring. Compared with the traditional method of using multiple separating gears with insufficient transmission wrap angle, it can better ensure the consistency of rotation of multiple separating plates, avoid separation failure, and improve separation efficiency and separation quality. 3. In this utility model, the feeding cage is designed to facilitate the placement and feeding of paper cups. The structure, which is welded from multiple galvanized metal rods, ensures the strength of the feeding cage without damaging the paper cups. Attached Figure Description

[0025] 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.

[0026] Please see Figure 1-9 In this embodiment of the present invention, a paper cup feeding separation device includes a fixed bottom shell 1, on which at least three separation components 3 are arranged in a circular array; the separation component 3 includes a driven gear 31 that is fitted and mounted on a rotating shaft 35, and a mounting plate 32 is coaxially provided on the bottom side of the driven gear 31; a separation plate 33 is fixed to the bottom of the mounting plate 32. The separating piece 33 is C-shaped, with one end being a flat end a and the other end b; the flat end a stops the outer edge of the paper cup rim, and the raised end b is used to separate the paper cup.

[0027] The lower end of the rotating shaft 35 is mounted on the fixed base shell 1 through a bearing 34; The driven gears 31 in the multiple separation components 3 are all meshed with the gear ring 4; the gear ring 4 is also meshed with the driving gear 2.

[0028] By adopting the above technical solution, during feeding, the paper cups are nested together, with the outer edge of the bottommost paper cup positioned above multiple separating plates 33. When separating the paper cups, the driving gear 2 drives the gear ring 4 to rotate. Since the driven gears 31 in the multiple separating components 3 are all meshed with the gear ring 4, the rotation of the gear ring 4 will drive the multiple driven gears 31 to rotate synchronously. The rotation of the driven gears 31 will drive the mounting plate 32 and the separating plates 33 to rotate. When the separating plates 33 rotate, their flat end a stops the outer edge of the paper cup opening, while the raised end b inserts into the gap between two adjacent paper cups. As the separating plates 33 continue to rotate, the bottommost paper cup will be separated from the nested paper cups, achieving the separation of the paper cups one by one and ensuring the stability and consistency of the separation.

[0029] Furthermore, this mechanism employs a ring gear driving the gears to rotate synchronously. Compared to the traditional method using multiple separating gears with insufficient transmission wrap angle, this better ensures the consistency of rotation of multiple separating plates, avoids separation failures, and improves separation efficiency and quality. At the same time, the device has a simple structure, reasonable design, and is easy to install and maintain, reducing operating costs.

[0030] In this embodiment, the toothed ring 4 is rotatably connected inside the slip ring 5; the longitudinal section of the slip ring 5 is C-shaped; and the slip ring 5 is fixed to the outside of the fixing frame 6.

[0031] By adopting the above technical solution, the slip ring 5 can be fixed to the fixed frame 6, maintain the position of the toothed ring 4, and ensure the normal rotation of the toothed ring 4, thereby driving the separation component 3.

[0032] In this embodiment, there are three fixing frames 6, each of which is arc-shaped and arranged and fixed in a circular array along the fixing base shell 1.

[0033] The two fixing brackets 6 are also fastened with outer shells 7; the outer shells 7 are fixed to the fixing base shell 1 by countersunk bolts; three studs are arranged in a ring array on the top of the outer shells 7 to facilitate the fixing of the fixing rings 8, and nuts are installed on the top of the studs.

[0034] By adopting the above technical solution, the outer casing 7 can protect the internal structure and prevent external factors from damaging the internal parts of the device. At the same time, the countersunk bolts fixed to the fixed base shell 1 ensure the stability of the installation of the outer casing 7. The annular array of studs on the top of the outer casing 7 and the matching nuts facilitate the installation and fixation of the fixing ring 8, thereby further stabilizing and facilitating the operation of the entire device.

[0035] In this embodiment, a feeding cage 9 is fixed on the outer shell 7; the feeding cage 9 is welded from multiple galvanized metal rods, and the inner diameter of the feeding cage 9 is not less than the outer diameter of the paper cup being processed.

[0036] By adopting the above technical solution, the feeding cage 9 is designed to facilitate the placement and feeding of paper cups. The structure, formed by welding multiple galvanized metal rods, ensures the strength of the feeding cage 9 without damaging the paper cups. The design, with an inner diameter no smaller than the outer diameter of the paper cup, allows the paper cups to smoothly enter the feeding cage 9 and be fed, avoiding situations such as cup jamming.

[0037] In this embodiment, the drive gear 2 is mounted on the transmission shaft, and the transmission shaft is mounted to the fixed base shell 1 through bearings; the lower end of the transmission shaft is connected to the drive motor 10; the drive motor 10 and the bracket 11 are fixed by the motor mounting bracket; and the upper end of the bracket 11 is fixed to the outer shell 7 by bolts.

[0038] By adopting the above technical solution, the drive motor 10 drives the drive gear 2 to rotate via the transmission shaft, providing power to the entire device. The transmission shaft is mounted to the fixed base 1 via bearings, ensuring the stability of the transmission shaft rotation. The drive motor 10 is fixed to the bracket 11 via a motor mounting bracket, and the bracket 11 is then fixed to the housing 7 via bolts, making the entire power transmission structure firmly installed and operating stably.

[0039] In this embodiment, the upper end of the feeding cage 9 is set in an open shape.

[0040] By adopting the above technical solution, the open design makes it convenient for paper cups to be placed into the feeding cage 9 from above, thus improving the ease of feeding.

[0041] Compared with existing technologies, the advantages of this invention are as follows: This invention uses a gear ring to drive the gears to rotate synchronously to achieve paper cup separation, which can better ensure the consistency of rotation of multiple separating plates, avoid separation failures, and improve separation efficiency and quality. At the same time, the device has a simple structure, reasonable design, is easy to install and maintain, and reduces operating costs.

[0042] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: When feeding, the paper cups are nested together, with the outer edge of the bottommost paper cup positioned above multiple separating plates 33. When separating the paper cups, the driving gear 2 drives the gear ring 4 to rotate. Since the driven gears 31 in the multiple separating components 3 are all meshed with the gear ring 4, the rotation of the gear ring 4 will drive the multiple driven gears 31 to rotate synchronously. The rotation of the driven gears 31 will drive the mounting plate 32 and the separating plates 33 to rotate. When the separating plates 33 rotate, their flat end a stops the outer edge of the paper cup opening, while the raised end b inserts into the gap between two adjacent paper cups. As the separating plates 33 continue to rotate, the bottommost paper cup will be separated from the nested paper cups, achieving the separation of the paper cups one by one and ensuring the stability and consistency of the separation.
