Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of embryo sorting equipment technology, and in particular to an embryo sorting mechanism. Background Technology

[0002] After injection molding, the preforms need to be sorted and placed into the testing equipment for testing.

[0003] In existing technologies, many preform handling mechanisms directly drop preforms into the handling line via an elevator, as shown in patent publication CN208993058U, entitled "A Roller-Type Preform Handling Mechanism." While this method is structurally simple, it presents several potential problems in actual production. These include: preform drop impacts causing cosmetic damage or deformation; uncontrollable speed, direction, and posture of preforms entering the handling line, affecting subsequent processing efficiency and accuracy; potential blockages or malfunctions in the handling line due to preform stacking, jamming, or uneven feeding; and the lack of a buffer mechanism, meaning that even a brief pause in the handling line can lead to continued feeding by the elevator, potentially causing accumulation. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a buffering mechanism for embryo handling, in order to solve one of the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0005] The technical solution of this utility model is as follows: This utility model discloses a blank handling mechanism, including a hopper, an elevator, a loading and unloading conveyor line, a roller blank handling line, a blank return line, and a branch conveyor line. The hopper is connected to the inlet end of the elevator, and the outlet end of the elevator is connected to the dual-function port of the loading and unloading conveyor line. The outlet of the loading and unloading conveyor line is located above the roller blank handling line, and the blank return line is located below the roller blank handling line. The outlet end of the blank return line is connected to the hopper, and the branch conveyor line is located below the dual-function port of the loading and unloading conveyor line.

[0006] Furthermore, the elevator includes a first geared motor, a drive drum, a first driven drum, a second driven drum, and a lifting belt. The first geared motor drives and connects to the drive drum. The second driven drum is located on one side of the first driven drum. The lifting belt is wound around the drive drum, the first driven drum, and the second driven drum. The hopper is located between the first driven drum and the second driven drum.

[0007] Furthermore, the loading and unloading conveyor line includes a second geared motor, a drive shaft, a driven shaft, and a conveyor belt. The second geared motor drives and connects to the drive shaft. The drive shaft and the driven shaft are arranged opposite to each other. The conveyor belt is wound around the drive shaft and the driven shaft.

[0008] Furthermore, the roller blank sorting line includes a speed-regulating motor, a first roller, a second roller, and baffles. The speed-regulating motor is located at the inlet end of the roller blank sorting line and drives the first roller and the second roller. The baffles are located on both sides and above the first roller and the second roller.

[0009] Furthermore, the roller blank-sorting line also includes a blank-sweeping wheel assembly, which is located at the outlet end of the roller blank-sorting line. The blank-sweeping wheel assembly includes a blank-sweeping motor and a blank-sweeping scraper. The blank-sweeping motor drives and connects to the blank-sweeping scraper, which is located above the first roller and the second roller.

[0010] Furthermore, a hopper is provided below the first and second rollers of the roller sorting line. The inlet of the return line is connected to the hopper. The return line includes a return motor, a drive cylinder, a driven cylinder, a return belt, and a discharge chute. The return motor drives and is connected to the drive cylinder. The return belt is wound around the drive cylinder and the driven cylinder. The discharge chute is located at the outlet end of the return line and is connected to the hopper.

[0011] Furthermore, the separate conveyor line includes a third geared motor, a main roller, a first slave roller, a second slave roller, and a conveyor belt. The third geared motor drives and connects to the main roller. The first slave roller is arranged opposite to the main roller, and the second slave roller is arranged opposite to the first slave roller. The conveyor belt is wound around the main roller, the first slave roller, and the second slave roller.

[0012] Furthermore, it also includes a conveying slide, which is located at the outlet end of the roller blank handling line.

[0013] Furthermore, it also includes a first frame, a second frame, and a third frame. The hopper, the elevator, and the return line are all located above the first frame. The loading and unloading conveyor lines and the roller sorting line are located on the second frame, and the sectional conveyor lines are located on the third frame.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: An additional loading and unloading conveyor is added to the roller preform sorting line. This conveyor acts as a buffer, ensuring that preforms do not fall directly onto the roller preform sorting line after exiting the elevator, but instead transition smoothly via the loading and unloading conveyor belts, avoiding impact from falls and reducing preform breakage or deformation. Furthermore, a separate conveyor line is provided to connect to the loading and unloading conveyor line. In the event of a short stoppage, malfunction, or temporary speed delay, the loading and unloading conveyor line can temporarily store some preforms, acting as an accumulator, or directly deliver preforms via the separate conveyor line, preventing the elevator end from continuing to deliver a large number of preforms, which could lead to accumulation or even preform overflow. This achieves buffering and flow control, enhancing the stability of the preform sorting mechanism. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation

[0016] Example 1

[0017] Reference Figures 1-6This utility model provides a preform sorting mechanism, including a hopper 1, an elevator 2, a loading and unloading conveyor line 3, a roller preform sorting line 4, a return preform line 5, a channel conveyor line 6, and a conveyor chute 8. After injection molding, the preforms enter the elevator 2 from the hopper 1. The elevator 2 lifts the preforms upwards, and the preforms first fall into the loading and unloading conveyor line 3. When the mechanism is running normally, the loading and unloading conveyor line 3 transports the preforms upwards, and the preforms fall into the roller preform sorting line 4 via the loading and unloading conveyor line 3. When the mechanism malfunctions, the loading and unloading conveyor line 3 transports the preforms downwards, and the preforms fall into the channel conveyor line 6 via the loading and unloading conveyor line 3. Furthermore, there is a frame below the channel conveyor line 6 to place the preforms. At the same time, the preforms that are neatly arranged by the roller preform sorting line 4 are sent into the inspection machine for inspection via the conveyor chute 8, while the preforms that are not neatly arranged fall into the return preform line 5, and then fall into the hopper 1 from the return preform line 5.

[0018] The positional relationship is as follows: the hopper 1 is connected to the inlet end of the elevator 2, the outlet end of the elevator 2 is connected to the dual-function port 31 of the loading and unloading conveyor line 3, the dual-function port 31 of the loading and unloading conveyor line 3 can both load and unload materials, the outlet of the loading and unloading conveyor line 3 is located above the roller sorting line 4, the return line 5 is located below the roller sorting line 4, and the outlet end of the return line 5 is connected to the hopper 1, the branch conveyor line 6 is located below the dual-function port 31 of the loading and unloading conveyor line 3, and the conveying chute 8 is located at the outlet end of the roller sorting line 4.

[0019] The advantages of the above design are as follows: the loading and unloading conveyor line 3 can act as a buffer, so that the preforms do not fall directly to the roller preform sorting line 4 after exiting the elevator 2, but transition smoothly through the loading and unloading conveyor line 3, avoiding the impact of falling, reducing preform breakage or deformation, and improving the stability of preform conveying; when there is a short stop, malfunction, or the speed is temporarily unable to keep up, the loading and unloading conveyor line 3 can temporarily store some preforms, acting as an accumulator, or directly send the preforms out through the diversion conveyor line 6, avoiding the elevator 2 from continuing to send a large number of preforms, causing accumulation or even preform overflow, thus achieving buffering and flow control, and enhancing the stability of the preform sorting mechanism.
