Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of packaging equipment technology, and to a binary external gripping and sealing head, particularly to a binary external gripping and sealing head that is simple in structure, low in cost, has a good sealing effect, and can meet the inflation requirements. Background Technology
[0002] Spray cans are pressure-resistant containers, typically made of metal (such as tinplate or aluminum) or glass. Their core components include the container, valve system, contents, and propellant. The valve system is often integrated with the container cap; sealing the aerosol can involves sealing both the cap and the container itself. Simultaneously, a propellant (usually pressurized gas) is often injected into the container. Existing sealing devices that meet these requirements suffer from complex structures and excessively high costs.
[0003] Therefore, developing a sealing head that is simple in structure, low in cost, has a good sealing effect, and can meet the inflation requirements is of great practical significance. Utility Model Content
[0004] Due to the aforementioned defects in the existing technology, this utility model provides a sealing head that is simple in structure, low in cost, has a good sealing effect, and can meet the inflation requirements, so as to solve the problem that existing sealing heads that can inflate while sealing cannot achieve a good balance between simple structure and low cost.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:
[0006] A binary external gripper sealing head includes a capping cylinder, a sealing cylinder, and a repositionable air chamber;
[0007] The capping cylinder, sealing cylinder, and indexable air chamber are installed sequentially from top to bottom;
[0008] The capping cylinder includes capping cylinder I and capping cylinder II arranged vertically. An upper capping cylinder cover is installed above capping cylinder I, and a lower capping cylinder cover is installed below capping cylinder II. Multiple tie rods are provided between the lower capping cylinder cover and the upper capping cylinder cover to fix the capping cylinder. A capping cylinder partition cover is installed between capping cylinder I and capping cylinder II. A capping cylinder rod I is embedded inside capping cylinder I. The upper end of capping cylinder rod I protrudes from the upper capping cylinder cover, and its lower end penetrates the capping cylinder partition cover and can contact capping cylinder rod II. A capping cylinder II is embedded with a capping cylinder rod II. The lower end of the capping cylinder rod II penetrates the lower end cover of the capping cylinder. The lower end of the capping cylinder rod II is fixedly connected to the central shaft. The middle of the capping cylinder rod I, the capping cylinder rod II, and the central shaft are all opened with through holes for the central adjusting rod to pass through. The capping cylinder rod I, the capping cylinder rod II, and the central shaft are all fitted on the central adjusting rod. The lower end of the central adjusting rod is fixed with a capping head. The middle of the central adjusting rod and the capping head are opened with a hollow structure that communicates with each other. The top of the central adjusting rod is equipped with a vacuum device.
[0009] The sealing cylinder is installed outside the central shaft. A sealing piston is embedded inside the sealing cylinder and is fitted outside the central shaft. A tightening sleeve fitted on the central shaft is provided on the inner side of the sealing piston. A tightening ring is installed below the tightening sleeve. Sealing claws arranged in a ring are installed on the inner side of the tightening ring. The sealing claws are fixed to the central shaft. A lower end cover of the sealing cylinder is provided below the sealing cylinder and is inserted into the indexable air chamber. The lower end cover of the sealing cylinder is connected to the indexable air chamber through a connecting flange. The indexable air chamber has a through hole on the side away from the sealing cylinder for the bottle to be sealed to pass through, and a lower end cover of the air chamber is installed around the through hole.
[0010] The operational logic of the above binary external sealing verb is as follows:
[0011] (1) Simultaneously drive the capping cylinder rod I in capping cylinder I and the capping cylinder rod II in capping cylinder II to move downward. At this time, the center adjusting rod slides relative to the capping cylinder rod I and the capping cylinder rod II, driving the sealing cylinder and the indexable air chamber to move downward (two strokes downward). At this time, the capping head contacts the cap to be sealed.
[0012] (2) The vacuum device works to remove the air from the hollow structure of the central adjusting rod and the cap head, and uses air pressure to suck up the cap to be sealed.
[0013] (3) Drive the capping cylinder rod II in the capping cylinder II to move upward, that is, suck up the cap to be sealed and move upward for one stroke. At this time, the cap to be sealed is separated from the bottle body to be sealed.
[0014] (4) Inflate the indexable air chamber with gas, and the gas is introduced into the bottle body through the gap between the cap to be sealed and the bottle body to be sealed.
[0015] (5) Drive the capping cylinder rod I in the capping cylinder I to move upward, that is, move downward one stroke, at which time the cap to be sealed is in close contact with the bottle body to be sealed;
[0016] (6) Drive the sealing piston to move downward. The sealing piston drives the tightening bushing and tightening ring to move downward. The tightening ring presses the sealing claw to contract inward. The sealing claw seals the cap to be sealed.
[0017] The dual external gripper sealing head of this utility model has a reasonable structural design. It can achieve two-stroke adjustment by cooperating with the double capping cylinder and the central adjusting rod. With the vacuum device and the rotatable air chamber, it can not only separate the cap to be sealed from the bottle body, but also inflate the bottle body with air. It is particularly suitable for the packaging of aerosol cans. The overall structure is relatively simple, the cost is low and the sealing effect is good, and the application prospects are good.
[0018] As a preferred technical solution:
[0019] As described above, in a binary external sealing head, the upper and lower ends of the sealing cylinder I and sealing cylinder II are respectively provided with an upper air port and a lower air port.
[0020] As described above, in a binary external sealing head, the sealing cylinder has an upper air port and a lower air port at its upper and lower ends, respectively.
[0021] As described above, in a binary external gripper seal, the outer wall of the indexable gas chamber has a gas inlet for facilitating the filling of gas into the bottle to be sealed.
[0022] As described above, in a binary external gripper sealing head, a vertically arranged sealing expansion limiting shaft is fixed to the lower outer wall of the sealing cylinder;
[0023] The outer wall of the lower end cover of the sealing cylinder is provided with an external thread structure, which is threadedly connected to the limit adjusting nut. The sealing expansion limit shaft and the limit adjusting nut cooperate to limit the stroke of the sealing piston, thereby controlling the contraction range of the sealing claw.
[0024] As described above, in a binary external gripper sealing head, a guide rod mounting plate is fixed on the upper outer wall of the sealing cylinder;
[0025] A vertically arranged guide rod is mounted on the guide rod mounting plate. A sensing block is fixed to the side of the guide rod away from the guide rod mounting plate. A guide screw is fixed to the guide rod. The capping cylinder is fixed to the fixed guide rod, and the fixed guide rod has a vertically arranged guide groove that matches the guide screw. The guide screw passes through the guide groove. By using the guide screw and the guide groove on the fixed guide rod, the movement direction of the guide rod can be guided. With the help of the sensing block, precise control of the binary external gripping sealing head can be achieved.
[0026] As described above, a binary external gripper seal is fixed to the equipment by a capping cylinder lower end cap.
[0027] As described above, in a binary external gripper sealing head, the capping cylinder is fixedly connected to a fixing plate, through which other accessories required for the binary external gripper sealing head can be arranged.
[0028] The above technical solution is only one feasible technical solution of this utility model. The protection scope of this utility model is not limited to this. Those skilled in the art can reasonably adjust the specific design according to actual needs.
[0029] Compared with the prior art, the above-mentioned utility model has the following advantages or beneficial effects:
[0030] The dual external gripper sealing head of this utility model has a reasonable structural design. It can achieve two-stroke adjustment by cooperating with the double capping cylinder and the central adjusting rod.
