[0013] according to Figure 1-4 This embodiment discloses a rapid gripping device and tray loading machine for medicine bottles, including a frame 1, a placement plate 2 fixedly mounted on the frame 1, and a conveying device 3 located on the frame 1. The conveyor belt of the conveying device 3 is perpendicular to the placement plate 2. The placement plate has raised strips (not shown) around its perimeter, and the raised strips near the bottle receiving tray have outlet grooves. The frame 1 is equipped with a gripping device 4 for gripping medicine bottles from the conveyor belt of the conveying device and placing them on the placement plate 2. The gripping device allows for fast bottle transfer and the transfer of a large number of bottles. The gripping device 4 is located on the conveyor belt of the conveying device. At one end of the placement plate 2, near the conveying device, there is a feeding component 5 for pushing out medicine bottles. The placement plate 2 is also equipped with a pushing component 6 for pushing the sorted medicine bottles. The placement plate 2 is also equipped with a blocking component 7. The gripping device facilitates the gripping and transfer of bottles. The bottles are transferred to the placement plate, and the blocking component and feeding component transport the bottles in an orderly manner. Then, the feeding component pushes all the bottles on the placement plate to the pushing component, and then the pushing component pushes all the bottles into the receiving tray. The above method of transporting the bottles to the receiving tray will not result in uneven arrangement or bottle tipping and breaking.

[0014] The present invention is further configured such that: the gripping device includes a fixed plate 8 and at least two sets of clamping plates 9; at least two sets of finger cylinders 10 are fixed below the fixed plate 8; the fingers of the two sets of finger cylinders 10 are respectively fixedly connected to the two sets of clamping plates 9; the frame 1 is provided with a displacement device for driving the fixed plate 8 to move up and down and left and right; by setting up the gripping device, it is convenient to transport the conveyor belt located on the conveying device; the lifting component of the displacement device is activated to drive the fixed plate and clamping plates to move downward; the finger cylinders are activated to clamp the bottle; then the lifting component of the displacement device is activated to drive the clamped bottle to rise, so that the bottle is removed from the conveyor belt on the conveying device; then the movable component of the displacement device is activated to drive the bottle to move towards the placement plate; then the lifting component of the displacement device is activated to drive the clamped bottle to move downward, placing the bottle on the placement plate for easy transfer.

[0015] The present invention is further configured such that: the displacement device includes a lifting assembly 11 and a movable assembly 12; the movable assembly 12 includes a bracket 13 fixedly mounted on the frame 1, a slide plate 14 slidably mounted on the bracket 13, a transmission shaft 15 rotatably mounted below the slide plate 14, and a displacement motor 16 fixedly mounted on the slide plate 14; the brackets 13 are arranged in a set, with the placement plate 2 located in the middle of the set of brackets; a slide bar 17 and a rack 18 are fixed on the brackets 13; gears 19 are provided at both ends of the transmission shaft 15, and the gears 19 are configured to cooperate with the rack 18; a slider 20 cooperating with the slide bar 17 is provided below the slide plate 14; and a main synchronous pulley (not shown) is fixed on the output shaft of the displacement motor 16. The drive shaft 15 is fixed with a driven synchronous pulley (not shown). The main synchronous pulley and the driven synchronous pulley are connected by a synchronous belt (not shown). The slide plate has a slot 22, and the synchronous belt is located in the slot. The slide plate 14 is fixed with a bearing seat 23 below it. The drive shaft 15 is located in the bearing seat 23. The fixed plate 8 is fixed with a guide rod 24. The guide rod 24 is movably mounted on the slide plate 14. When it is necessary to drive the gripping device to move left and right, the displacement motor starts and drives the driven synchronous pulley to rotate through the synchronous belt, thereby driving the transmission and gear to move. The gear moves on the rack, thereby driving the slide plate to move. The slide plate drives the lifting assembly and the gripping device to move left and right, which facilitates the left and right movement of the gripping device.

[0016] The present invention is further configured such that: the lifting assembly 11 includes a mounting platform (not shown) fixedly mounted on the slide plate 14, a lead screw motor 25 fixedly mounted on the mounting platform, and a lifting plate 26 located on the slide plate 14. The upper end of the guide rod 24 is fixedly connected to the lifting plate 26. A lead screw nut seat is installed on the lifting plate 26. A fixed seat is installed on the slide plate 14. The lead screw of the lead screw motor 25 is located in the lead screw nut seat and the fixed seat. When it is necessary to drive the gripping device to move up and down, the lead screw motor is started to drive the lifting plate to move. The lifting plate drives the guide rod and the fixed plate fixedly connected to the guide rod to move up and down. Since the finger cylinder is fixedly connected to the fixed plate, the fixed plate drives the finger cylinder and the clamping plate to move up and down when it moves, which facilitates the up and down movement of the gripping device.

[0017] The present invention is further configured such that: the feeding assembly includes a feeding cylinder 27 fixedly mounted on the frame 1 and a main feeding plate 28 fixedly connected to the feeding cylinder 27. The upper end of the main feeding plate 28 is located above the placement plate 2. A rodless cylinder 29 is fixed to one side of the feeding cylinder 27. A feeding block 30 is fixed to the output end of the rodless cylinder 29. A swing cylinder 31 is fixed to the feeding block 30. A secondary feeding plate 32 is fixed to the output shaft of the swing cylinder 31. When aligning the bottles, the feeding cylinder drives the main feeding plate to push the bottles towards the baffle plate. Then, the gripping device places the bottles on the placement plate. The main feeding plate is activated, pushing the bottles towards the baffle plate. After repeating this process several times, multiple sets of bottles are arranged on the placement plate. Then, the lifting cylinder is activated, causing the baffle plate to move downwards until its upper surface is flush with the upper surface of the placement plate. Next, the feeding cylinder drives the main feeding plate to push the bottles towards the pushing device. Since the main feeding plate has limited travel, it cannot push all the bottles to the pushing device. At this point, the feeding cylinder moves the main feeding plate away from the bottles, and the auxiliary feeding plate takes over. The swing cylinder is activated, causing the auxiliary feeding plate to rotate so that it is positioned to one side of the bottles. Then, the rodless cylinder drives the auxiliary feeding plate to push all the bottles to the pushing assembly, facilitating the transfer of the bottles.

[0018] The present invention is further configured such that: the material blocking assembly includes a lifting cylinder 33 fixedly mounted on the frame 1 and a material blocking plate 34 fixedly connected to the lifting cylinder 33; the placement plate 2 is provided with a material blocking groove (not shown) for the material blocking plate 34 to move up and down; by providing the material blocking groove, the movement of the material blocking plate is facilitated.

[0019] The present invention is further configured such that: the pushing assembly includes a rodless pushing cylinder 36 fixedly mounted on the frame 1, a pushing plate 37 fixedly mounted on the rodless pushing cylinder 36, and a pushing rod 38 fixedly mounted on the pushing plate 37. A connecting plate 39 is fixedly mounted on the pushing plate 37, and a connecting rod 40 is fixedly mounted on the other end of the connecting plate 39. A cylinder 41 is fixedly mounted on the connecting rod 40, and an auxiliary pushing plate 42 is fixedly connected to the output end of the cylinder 41. The auxiliary pushing plate 42 is disposed opposite to the pushing plate 37. After all the bottles corresponding to the receiving tray are pushed onto the pushing assembly, the rodless pushing cylinder is activated, pushing the bottles located between the auxiliary pusher plate and the pusher plate into the receiving tray (some of the bottles near the pusher plate have not yet entered the receiving tray). Then, the cylinder is activated to drive the auxiliary pusher plate to move upward, away from the receiving tray. The rodless pushing cylinder continues to move in the direction of the receiving tray (after the auxiliary pusher plate moves upward, there will be a gap between the bottles and the receiving tray) to push all the bottles into the receiving tray, making it easier to transport the bottles to the mixing tray.

[0020] The present invention is further configured such that: a transport device connected to the frame 1 is provided on the side of the auxiliary push plate 42 away from the push plate 37; a baffle plate 43 is provided above the transport belt of the transport device; both ends of the baffle plate 43 are connected to the baffle cylinder 44; the baffle cylinder 44 is fixedly mounted on the transport frame of the transport device; when the empty bottle receiving tray is transported to the pusher assembly by the transport belt of the transport device, the baffle plate plays a blocking role; then the bottle receiving tray is manually placed at the outlet groove of the protrusion strip to facilitate the loading of bottles pushed by the pusher assembly; after loading, the bottle receiving tray is placed on the transport belt, and the baffle cylinder drives the baffle plate to move upward to make way, facilitating the transport of the bottle receiving tray after the bottles are loaded.

[0021] The working principle of this invention is as follows: The bottle is conveyed to the gripping device via a conveying device. The screw motor, in conjunction with the screw nut seat, drives the lifting plate downwards. The lifting plate drives the guide rod downwards, which in turn drives the fixed plate downwards. The fixed plate then drives the finger cylinder and clamping plate downwards, positioning the bottle between the two clamping plates. The finger cylinder is then activated, causing the clamping plates to clamp the bottle. The screw motor then reverses direction, driving the clamping plates upwards, causing the bottle to detach from the conveying device. Finally, the displacement motor starts, driving the transmission shaft to rotate (the main and driven synchronous pulleys are connected via a synchronous belt). The transmission shaft then drives the gears... The conveyor rotates, the gears travel on the rack, driving the slide plate to move, which in turn moves the gripping device located on the slide plate, conveying the bottle to the top of the placement plate. Then, the lead screw motor starts, driving the clamping plate to move downwards. After the bottle reaches the placement plate, the finger cylinder is activated, causing the clamping plate to release the bottle, placing it on the placement plate. Then, the gripping device resets (the clamping plate is located above the conveyor). Then, the lifting cylinder is activated, driving the baffle plate to move upwards. The feeding cylinder drives the main feeding plate to push the bottle towards the baffle plate. Finally, the gripping device places the bottle on the placement plate, and the feeding cylinder is activated again... The main feed plate pushes the bottles towards the baffle plate. After repeating this process several times, multiple sets of bottles are arranged on the placement plate. Then, the lifting cylinder is activated, causing the baffle plate to move downwards until its upper surface is flush with the upper surface of the placement plate. Next, the feeding cylinder drives the main feed plate to push the bottles towards the pushing device. Due to the limited stroke of the main feed plate, it cannot push all the bottles to the pushing device. At this point, the feeding cylinder moves the main feed plate away from the bottles, and the auxiliary feed plate takes over. The swing cylinder is activated, causing the auxiliary feed plate to rotate and position itself to one side of the bottles. Then, the rodless cylinder drives the auxiliary feed plate to push all the bottles to the pushing group. At the point of contact, the feeding device resets to its initial state, the lifting cylinder starts and drives the baffle plate upward, then the pusher cylinder starts and pushes the bottles located between the auxiliary pusher plate and the pusher plate into the receiving tray (some of the bottles near the pusher plate have not yet entered the receiving tray). Then the cylinder starts and drives the auxiliary pusher plate upward, away from the receiving tray. The pusher cylinder continues to move in the direction of the receiving tray (after the auxiliary pusher plate moves upward, there will be a gap between the bottles and the receiving tray) to push all the bottles into the receiving tray. Then the blocking cylinder drives the blocking plate upward to make room when the transport device transports the receiving tray.
