Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of food and pharmaceutical packaging equipment technology, and in particular to an adjustable conveying device. Background Technology

[0002] In the pharmaceutical industry, the packaging equipment for patches is becoming increasingly sophisticated, driven by the evolving technological needs of pharmaceutical companies and the market's growing demand for aesthetically pleasing products. As a result, a single machine must be able to meet the production requirements of various specifications. During equipment upgrades, large-scale packaging material production often relies on changing the specifications of components to achieve multi-functionality, while some more advanced equipment employs complex mechanical structures. Changing specifications not only demands high operator skills but also significantly increases preparation time. Conversely, using complex mechanical structures increases both the manufacturing difficulty and cost of the equipment, as well as the operational complexity. Utility Model Content

[0007] As a further improvement to the above technical solution: the adjusting seat is provided with a locking handle, which is threadedly engaged with the adjusting seat and abuts against the first adjusting nut.

[0008] As a further improvement to the above technical solution: a guide sleeve is provided between the first adjusting nut and the adjusting seat.

[0009] As a further improvement to the above technical solution: the rolling element is a roller or a bearing.

[0010] As a further improvement to the above technical solution: the connecting part is provided with a connecting hole, the adjusting bracket is provided with a rotating shaft, and the connecting hole is sleeved on the rotating shaft.

[0011] As a further improvement to the above technical solution: the adjusting bracket is provided with at least two mounting seats, the distance adjusting component is connected to each of the mounting seats, each of the mounting seats is correspondingly arranged with each of the conveying components, the connecting part is rotatably connected to the mounting seat, and the angle adjusting component is disposed on the mounting seat.

[0012] As a further improvement to the above technical solution: the distance adjustment assembly includes a second adjusting screw and a second adjusting nut disposed at both ends of the second adjusting screw. The spiral directions at both ends of the second adjusting screw are opposite. The mounting base is connected to the second adjusting nut.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the advantages of this utility model are: This utility model discloses an adjustable conveying device. When the patches are produced in a single row, one set of conveying components in the adjustable conveying mechanism transfers the patches from the first conveying mechanism to the second conveying mechanism. When the patches are produced in a double row, there is a certain gap between the two rows of patches. When the patches enter the packaging station, since the size of the packaging bag needs to be larger than the size of the patches, the gap between the two rows of patches needs to be increased before packaging. At this time, the included angle and distance between the two sets of conveying components can be adjusted by the angle adjustment component and the distance adjustment component, respectively. After adjustment, the two sets of conveying components transfer the two rows of patches from the first conveying mechanism to the second conveying mechanism one-to-one, which can well meet the switching of production conditions. The structure is simple, easy to use, and does not require changing the specification parts.

For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral part; 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; they can refer to the internal communication of two components or the interaction between two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model according to the specific circumstances.

[0027] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0028] Figures 1 to 8 An embodiment of the adjustable conveying device of the present invention is shown. The adjustable conveying device of this embodiment includes a first conveying mechanism 7, a second conveying mechanism 8, and an adjustable conveying mechanism disposed between the first conveying mechanism 7 and the second conveying mechanism 8. The adjustable conveying mechanism includes an adjusting bracket 1 and two sets of conveying components 2. The adjusting bracket 1 is provided with an angle adjusting component 3 for adjusting the included angle between two adjacent sets of conveying components 2 and a distance adjusting component 4 for adjusting the distance between two adjacent sets of conveying components 2.

[0029] The adjustable conveying device in this embodiment is described in detail below. Figure 6 and Figure 7 When the medicated patch is produced using a single-row production process (corresponding to...) Figure 7 The first medicated patch 51), the medicated strip 5 is cut into strip form by the cutting assembly 6 and falls onto the first conveying mechanism 7. A set of conveying components 2 in the adjustable conveying mechanism transfers the medicated patch from the first conveying mechanism 7 to the second conveying mechanism 8. At this time, the conveying center line of the set of conveying components 2 remains parallel to the first conveying mechanism 7 and no adjustment is required; see details. Figure 8 When the medicated patch is produced using a double-row production process (corresponding to...) Figure 8 The second patch 52), the medicine strip 5 is cut by the cutter assembly 6 to obtain two rows of patches and fall onto the first conveyor mechanism 7. There is a certain gap between the two rows of patches. When the patches enter the packaging station, since the size of the packaging bag needs to be larger than the size of the patches, the gap between the two rows of patches needs to be widened before packaging. Figure 8In this process, the distance between the two rows of second patches 52 needs to be increased from a to b. At this time, the included angle and distance between the two sets of conveying components 2 can be adjusted by the angle adjustment component 3 and the distance adjustment component 4 respectively. After the adjustment is completed, the two sets of conveying components 2 will transfer the two rows of patches from the first conveying mechanism 7 to the second conveying mechanism 8 in a one-to-one correspondence. This can well meet the switching of production conditions. The structure is simple, easy to use, and there is no need to change the specification parts.

[0030] See details Figures 2 to 5 In this embodiment, the conveying component 2 has a connecting part 21 at one end and an adjusting part 22 at the other end. The connecting part 21 is rotatably connected to the adjusting bracket 1. The angle adjusting component 3 includes a liftable rolling element 31. The adjusting part 22 has an upwardly oriented groove, in which the rolling element 31 is embedded. Because the groove is upwardly oriented, when the rolling element 31 moves up and down, the connecting part 21 can rotate around the rotatable connection with the adjusting bracket 1, thereby realizing the adjustment of the angle of the first conveying component 2. The use of the rolling element 31 can reduce the frictional resistance between the rolling element and the groove, making the angle adjustment process smoother. The structure is reasonable and effective.

[0031] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the angle adjustment assembly 3 also includes an adjustment seat 32, a first adjustment screw 33 disposed on the adjustment seat 32, and a first adjustment nut 34 disposed on the first adjustment screw 33. The rolling element 31 is connected to the first adjustment nut 34. By rotating the first adjustment screw 33, the first adjustment nut 34 can be driven to move up and down along the first adjustment screw 33, thereby driving the rolling element 31 to rise and fall. The structure is simple and the adjustment is convenient. The adjustment seat 32 is disposed on the mounting base 12.

[0032] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the adjusting seat 32 is provided with a locking handle 35, which is threadedly engaged with the adjusting seat 32 and abuts against the first adjusting nut 34. After the height of the rolling element 31 is adjusted to the correct position, the locking handle 35 is tightened to press the first adjusting nut 34 against the ground, preventing the first adjusting nut 34 from loosening due to vibrations or other factors generated during equipment operation, which could lead to an angle shift in the conveying assembly 2.

[0033] In a preferred embodiment, a guide sleeve 36 is provided between the first adjusting nut 34 and the adjusting seat 32. The guide sleeve 36 can provide guidance for the lifting and lowering movement of the first adjusting nut 34, making the lifting and lowering process of the first adjusting nut 34 more stable and smooth, and also helps to prevent deviation due to the clamping force of the locking handle 35.

[0034] In a preferred embodiment, the rolling element 31 is a roller or a bearing, which has a simple and reliable structure and can effectively reduce the frictional resistance between the roller and the groove.

[0035] In a preferred embodiment, the connecting part 21 is provided with a connecting hole, and the adjusting bracket 1 is provided with a rotating shaft 11 (the rotating shaft 11 is specifically provided on the mounting base 12). The connecting hole is sleeved on the rotating shaft 11, so that the conveying component 2 can rotate around the axis of the rotating shaft 11. The structure is simple and reliable.

[0036] See details Figures 1 to 3 In this embodiment, the adjusting bracket 1 is provided with two mounting seats 12, the distance adjusting component 4 is connected to each mounting seat 12, each mounting seat 12 is correspondingly arranged with each conveying component 2, the connecting part 21 is rotatably connected to the mounting seat 12, and the angle adjusting component 3 is provided on the mounting seat 12. The distance between the two mounting seats 12 is adjusted by the distance adjusting component 4, thereby achieving the purpose of adjusting the distance between the two sets of conveying components 2.

[0037] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the distance adjustment component 4 includes a second adjusting screw 41 and second adjusting nuts 42 located at both ends of the second adjusting screw 41. The helical directions at both ends of the second adjusting screw 41 are opposite. The mounting base 12 is connected to the second adjusting nuts 42, and the adjustment bracket 1 is provided with guide members 13 (such as guide rods or guide rails) at both ends of the mounting base 12. When it is necessary to adjust the distance between the two sets of conveying components 2, the second adjusting screw 41 is rotated. Since the helical directions at both ends are opposite, the second adjusting nuts 42 at both ends move along the second adjusting screw 41, moving closer or further apart from each other, thereby driving the two sets of conveying components 2 to move closer or further apart. The structure is simple and the adjustment is convenient. The guide members 13 can provide guidance for the movement of the mounting base 12, making the movement process smoother and preventing deviation.

[0038] In a preferred embodiment, the first conveying mechanism 7 and the second conveying mechanism 8 are synchronous belts, and an adjustable conveying mechanism is located above the first conveying mechanism 7 and the second conveying mechanism 8. The conveying component 2 is a vacuum synchronous belt. The adjustable conveying mechanism's location above the first conveying mechanism 7 and the second conveying mechanism 8 facilitates the operation of the angle adjustment component 3 and the distance adjustment component 4. The conveying component 2 uses a vacuum synchronous belt, which can utilize negative pressure to absorb the medicated patch, completing the transfer of the medicated patch from the first conveying mechanism 7 to the second conveying mechanism 8. Of course, in other embodiments, the conveying component 2 can also employ other conveying methods.

[0039] Preferably, when the medicated patch is produced in a single row, both sets of vacuum synchronous belts are kept running, but the vacuum valve corresponding to the vacuum synchronous belt that does not require the transfer of medicated patches is closed, which helps to avoid affecting the normal operation of the other set of vacuum synchronous belts that require the transfer of medicated patches.

[0040] Although the present invention has been disclosed above with reference to preferred embodiments, it is not intended to limit the present invention. Any person skilled in the art can make many possible variations and modifications to the present invention, or modify it into equivalent embodiments, without departing from the scope of the present invention. Therefore, any simple modifications, equivalent changes, and modifications made to the above embodiments based on the technical essence of the present invention, without departing from the content of the present invention, should fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
