Description

Field of application

The utility model relates to a container clamping device, integrates into transport systems for servicing the processes of filling vessels with liquid products and is applicable in both the food industry and other areas of the industry.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

A vessel gripping device of US 20110064555 is known, which includes symmetrical right and left gripping jaws, connected by a connecting spring and mounted vertically centered to the carrier. Both the right and left actuating arms are connected to the jaws, respectively, by a mechanism for actuating the arms to open the gripping jaws.

The device has a sophisticated design of the mechanism for the actuation of the arms when opening the gripping jaws and the low degree of safety in closing the gripping jaws, provided only by the connecting spring.

The technical nature of the utility model

The object of the utility model is to provide a vessel clamping device with a simple and reliable construction that provides quick manipulation of the clamping jaws when transferring the vessels.

The throttle problem is solved by means of a device for gripping vessels, including a carrier with mounted vertical centering axes of symmetrical right and left gripping jaws connected respectively to the right and left driving arms.

According to a useful model, the vertical centering axes are fixed to the carrier and are symmetrically arranged relative to its axis of symmetry. The right and left gripping jaws are mounted through the vertical centering axes in a common guide body lying on the carrier.

The right and left actuating arms are pivotally connected, respectively, to the right and left gripping jaws, as well as to corresponding, symmetrically arranged axially symmetry of the carrier, vertical centering axes to which a guide body is mounted.

On one side of the guide body, a fixed connection is made with an inner centering sleeve located along the axis of symmetry of the carrier. The inner centering sleeve is mounted telescopically in an outer centering sleeve, which is fixedly fixed to the guide body, with an elastic element, a cylindrical spring, between the two sleeves.

On the other side of the guide body there is a fixed connection with a stem located on the axis of symmetry of the carrier. The stem is enclosed by a retainer fixed to the carrier. The free end of the stem is attached by a shaft to a drive roller.

The advantages of this utility model are expressed in a simplified design that delivers effortless single-plane transmission, which increases reliability in operation, quick manipulation of the gripping jaws and easy maintenance of the device elements.

Explanation of the annexed figures

An exemplary embodiment of the utility model is shown in the attached figures, where:

Figure 1 is an axonometric view of the vessel clamping device;

Figure 2 is a view along the axis of symmetry of the carrier;

Figure 3 is a section along the axis of symmetry of the carrier;

FIG. 4 is an axonometric projection on the underside of the receptacle and in FIG. 5, a star is shown with a plurality of receptacles attached thereto. FIG.

Exemplary implementation of the utility model

The container clamping device consists of a carrier 1 representing a support plate with a symmetry axis coinciding with the axis of symmetry of the right and left clamping jaws 2 and 3 attached to it. 1. The right and left gripping jaws 2 and 3 are mounted between two securing plates (lower and upper) mounted one above the other to form a common guiding body 4. The lower plate is mounted on the carrier 1.

The right and left gripping jaws 2 and 3 and the guide body 4 are mounted on centered vertical axes 5, which are fixed to the carrier 1. The vertical centering axes 5 are arranged symmetrically with respect to the axis of symmetry of the carrier 1. The upper plate of the guide body 4 is locked vertically by pins 6 on the vertical centering axes 5.

The right and left gripping jaws 2 and 3 have a complex spatial shape, resembling two rectangular triangles connected to one of their crates, and one of the other two free claws is shaped as a concave arch for tightly engaging vessels at their neck.

The rear mounting part of each of the gripping jaws 2 and 3 is pivotally mounted between two identical, one above the other arms, forming respectively the right and left drive arms 7 and 8.

The other ends of the right and left actuating arms 7 and 8 are pivotally connected and secured by pins 9 to corresponding, symmetrically spaced axis of symmetry of carrier 1, vertical centering axes 10, to which a guide body 11 is mounted, so that the guide body 11 is positioned between the right and left drive arms 7 and 8.

The guide body 11 is connected on one side, fixed to an internal centering sleeve 12, located along the axis of symmetry of the carrier 1. The inner centering sleeve 12 is mounted telescopically in an external centering sleeve 13, mounted fixedly to the guide body 4, between them being located elastic element 14 - cylindrical spring.

The guide body 11 is connected on its other side, fixed to a stem 15. arranged along the axis of symmetry of the carrier 1 of FIG. 2 and FIG. 3. The stem 15 is enclosed by a retainer 16. mounted fixedly on the carrier 1. The free end of the stem 15 is attached to a drive roll 17 via an axis 18.

Using the utility model

The container clamping device is mounted to the transport stars or belt conveyors of the container filling systems, in this case by means of pins 19 and screws 20 - fig. 4.

In FIG. 5 shows a variant embodiment of mounting a plurality of gripping devices to a star.

The control of the clamping jaws 2 and 3 is carried out by the cam 21. For the proper functioning of the utility model, the stem 15, commanded by the control cam 21, has a stroke H of 3 to 3.5 mm. This small stroke guarantees rapid manipulation of the transfer of vessels between the conveyor grips.

The container clamping device is normally closed and the closing force is provided by the elastic element

14. After the drive roll 17 meets the control cam 21, the gripping jaws 2 and 3 begin to open; 3, the linear displacement of the guide body 11 causes relative (plane) movement of the drive arms 7 and 8, which in turn transmit force to the clamping jaws 2 and 3. Proper guidance and alignment of the clamping jaws 2 and 3 is also guaranteed by the guidance of the inner centering sleeve 12 and the outer centering sleeve 13, because the guiding is carried out cylinder by cylinder, which in turn is simple and reliable guiding. The rotation of the clamping jaws 2 and 3 occurs around the vertical centering axes 5 and thus completes the cycle when the clamping device is opened. Closing is done in reverse order and is determined by the control cam 21.
