Technical Field

The present invention relates to a conveying apparatus.

Background

In the prior art, the conveying technology adopted in the production of the cup-packaged milk tea is the same as that of conveying glass bottles, for example, a cup is directly placed on a moving conveying surface, the conveying surface is composed of conveying chain plates or conveying belts, and the cup moves along with the conveying chain plates or the conveying belts on the conveying surface; the cup body can be under the condition that the cup body is limited, the cup is subjected to the power action at one place, and then the cup moves and pushes the adjacent cup to move forward. Whatever the delivery technique, it is desirable that the cup of the cupped milk tea be in direct contact with the delivery surface. As is well known, the design features of the cup-packaged milky tea have an inverted truncated cone-shaped structure, i.e. the upper width of the cup-packaged milky tea is larger than the lower width of the cup-packaged milky tea, and the design results from the need of holding the cup by a person, so that the cup is very convenient to hold by the person with the help of the design features. However, this structure is common to cup bodies of cup-packaged milky tea and is the biggest cause of problems in delivering cup-packaged milky tea. The conveyor chain or conveyor belt is always in operation during the transport process, and when the relative position of the cups for milk tea is fixed on the transport path due to the process requirement, the blocking of the forefront cup is usually adopted, and a plurality of cups are continuously arranged behind the cup, and the continuously arranged and stationary cups can respond to the process operation of group transport. At a plurality of cups arranged in succession, adjacent cups are only in contact with each other at the upper part, so that individual cups are deformed in a compliant manner by the pressing action of the adjacent cups and are deformed in a direction toward a small resistance, and eventually lifted. The cup arrangement is not orderly, which is very unfavorable for carrying the cup milk tea.

Disclosure of Invention

The technical problem to be solved by the invention is how to solve the problem of irregular arrangement caused by mutual extrusion of cup-packaged milk tea in the conveying process, so that conveying equipment is obtained.

The conveying equipment is provided with a circulating conveying path distributed around the gravity acting direction, a power part and a limiting part, wherein the power part is provided with a power output part, the power output part is arranged on the circulating conveying path and is used for outputting power along the conveying direction of the circulating conveying path, the limiting part is distributed along the circulating conveying path and is positioned on two sides of the circulating conveying path, the conveying equipment further comprises a continuous conveying carrier, the continuous conveying carrier comprises a base part and a loading part, the bottom of the base part is provided with a supporting surface with a planar structure, the side part of the base part is provided with four limiting surfaces with the planar structure and mutually perpendicular between adjacent limiting surfaces, the loading part is fixedly connected with the base part, the loading part is provided with a carrier cavity and a distributing channel, the carrier cavity extends in the direction of the vertical supporting surface and is positioned at the farthest position of the base part and is directly communicated with the outer space of the loading part, the distributing channel is positioned on one side of the loading part, the distributing channel penetrates through the loading part in the direction of the parallel supporting surface, the carrier cavity is communicated with the distributing channel, the carrier cavity is communicated with the outer space of the loading part through the distributing channel, the continuous conveying carrier is positioned on the circulating conveying part and is in the opposite to the position of the corresponding position of the circulating conveying part, and is in the opposite to the conveying position of the circulating conveying part.

The continuous conveying carrier is arranged on the conveying equipment and has the function of loading articles, so that when the continuous conveying carrier is positioned on the circulating conveying path, an independent storage space can be obtained through the continuous conveying carrier. That is, the continuous conveyance carrier is disposed on the conveyance surface of the endless conveyance path and a plurality of continuous conveyance carriers are adjacently and continuously arranged, and the articles are disposed on the continuous conveyance carrier to play a role of equally spaced apart, which means that the length-width dimension of the continuous conveyance carrier is larger than the length-width dimension of the articles. Four limiting surfaces of the continuous conveying carrier at the base part can effectively solve the problem that adjacent continuous conveying carriers are connected and arranged in a straight mode, and in the using process, only two limiting surfaces at opposite positions are used for connecting the adjacent continuous conveying carriers, and the sides of the other two limiting surfaces can be used for limiting and guiding. When adjacent continuous conveying carriers are arranged in a straight and continuous manner, any one of the continuous conveying carriers is restrained from moving in a self-rotation manner by the restraining action of the adjacent continuous conveying carriers. The load chamber is used for accommodating articles, such as cups for cup-packaged milk tea, which are aimed at by the invention, and the purpose of the accommodation is to provide supporting force for the articles and limit the articles in a direction parallel to the conveying direction. On this basis, the articles are not placed immediately next to one another on the conveying surface, but rather one article is placed on one continuous conveying carrier, the articles on adjacent continuous conveying carriers being separated by a fixed distance on two adjacent aligned continuous conveying carriers. The objects on the plurality of continuous conveying carriers which are arranged continuously can be limited by blocking any continuous conveying carrier, so that the purpose of fixing the object position is achieved. The purpose of fixing the position of the article is achieved by avoiding applying acting force to the article, so that the problem of forced extrusion deformation of the cup in the prior art can be completely avoided, and the technical effect of orderly arrangement of the cup is achieved

The dispensing channel exposes the portion of the article located in the article-carrying cavity, and the dispensing channel can allow operations to be performed on the article located in the article-carrying cavity from the loading portion, such as spoon sticking, tube sticking, code spraying, spray painting and the like, on the cup body, wherein the operations are based on the loading effect of the article from the continuous conveying carrier, the loading effect enables the article to be integrated with the continuous conveying carrier, the article is separated, and the article cannot rotate relative to the continuous conveying carrier. Therefore, in the technical proposal of conveying articles by the continuous conveying carrier, the articles have the technical effects of remarkable equidistant separation and positioning, and other operations can be carried out on the articles very conveniently.

When the continuous conveying carrier is placed on a larger supporting plane, based on the characteristics of four limiting surfaces of the continuous conveying carrier, a plurality of continuous conveying carriers are arranged together in a concentrated manner, so that the technical effect of matrix arrangement can be achieved. Then, the articles loaded on the continuous conveying carrier can achieve the technical effect of matrix arrangement when the continuous conveying carriers are arranged in matrix. The matrix arrangement is realized by the same conveying mode and pushing operation, the indirect control of the articles through the continuous conveying carrier is far easier than the direct control of the articles, the cup milk tea is taken as an example, when the cup milk tea is directly conveyed and pushed, the unordered arrangement problem caused by deformation of the cup milk tea hinders grouping operation and carrying operation, the fact that a plurality of cups which are orderly arranged are very difficult to obtain in a row of disordered cups can be considered, the technical effect of orderly arranging the articles can be achieved by controlling the movement of the continuous conveying carrier, the cup milk tea can be orderly grouped when the cup milk tea is equidistantly arranged on a circulating conveying path, and the grouped cups are carried and are converged into a matrix according to the required number of target columns.

The matrix arrangement of articles requires a large space on the endless conveying path and a reasonable arrangement of the grouping arrangement. Preferably, the conveying device is further provided with a matrix arrangement part and a transverse quantitative grouping part, wherein the matrix arrangement part is provided with a carrier surface with a plane structure, one end of the carrier surface is used as an input end to be connected with one end of a circulating conveying path, the other end of the carrier surface is used as an output end to be connected with the other end of the circulating conveying path, the conveying direction of the circulating conveying path at the position connected with the input end is parallel to the conveying direction of the circulating conveying path at the position connected with the output end, the circulating conveying path is distributed in a dislocation mode at the position connected with the input end and the position connected with the output end in the conveying direction of the circulating conveying path, the transverse quantitative grouping part is provided with a pushing plate in linear reciprocating motion, the transverse quantitative grouping part is positioned at the input end of the carrier surface, and the linear reciprocating motion direction of the pushing plate is perpendicular to the conveying direction of the carrier surface at the input end. The matrix arrangement is achieved by grouping arrangement, and the design not only fully utilizes the continuous and straight arrangement conveying characteristics of the continuous conveying carriers, but also maintains the continuous characteristics of the circulating conveying paths.

In order to make the position of the center of gravity of the carrier for continuous transport, in particular after loading the articles, reasonable, the loading location is located in the middle of the base location, the width of the cross section of the loading location in the direction of the vertical support surface is smaller than the width of the cross section of the base location in the direction of the vertical support surface, and the length of the cross section of the loading location in the direction of the vertical support surface is smaller than the length of the cross section of the base location in the direction of the vertical support surface. The design can further ensure that the gravity center position tends to be reasonable after the continuous conveying carrier loads articles. The whole carrier for continuous conveying forms a symmetrical structure, and has simple structure and easy production and processing.

The best mode when carrying the thing chamber holds article is to article laminating comprehensively, and the profile in year thing chamber and the profile of article coincide. For example, when the operation object is a cup-shaped milk tea, the carrying cavity is in an inverted truncated cone shape. The articles can be fully wrapped, so that the articles are combined with the carrier for continuous conveying into a whole.

In order to match the need for tube sticking and code spraying in the production process of the cup-packaged milk tea, the distribution channel comprises a longitudinal distribution channel extending in the direction of the vertical supporting surface and a transverse distribution channel surrounding the direction of the vertical supporting surface. Although the production requirement can be met by designing the distribution channel into a larger opening structure, the structure reduces the contact area between the loading part and the cup body, which is unfavorable for the stable connection between the cup and the carrier for continuous conveying. The longitudinal distribution channel and the transverse distribution channel are arranged through the distribution channel, so that not only can enough opening structures be provided, but also a larger contact area between the loading part and the cup body can be ensured; in addition, the loading part can form a constraint function at the dispensing channel, so that the butt joint of the straw and the cup body is guided, and the code spraying device can only spray codes in a set area, because only the part of the cup body which needs to be operated is exposed after the loading part wraps the cup body, the straw can only be embedded into the dispensing channel to be contacted with the cup body under the limitation of the dispensing channel, and the code spraying device is aligned with the dispensing channel to spray codes for the cup body. In order to reduce the difficulty of production and processing of the continuous conveying carrier, one end of the longitudinal distribution channel is overlapped with one end of the transverse distribution channel.

The object of the wrapping action of the loading portion is to provide a restraining force to enable the article and the carrier for continuous conveyance to be combined together under the action of gravity, and the wrapping action is only required to satisfy the above object, so that the loading portion can be designed to have a structure for wrapping only a partial portion of the article. This has the advantage that the longitudinal dispensing channel can be constructed in such a way that it communicates directly with the outer space of the loading site in the direction of the vertical support surface, so that the length of the longitudinal dispensing channel does not need to be identical to the length of the suction tube and the aforementioned restraining effect can still be achieved.

In order to make the center of gravity of the continuous conveying carrier, especially after loading the articles, reasonable, the base part is in a flat cuboid structure, and the length of the base part is equal to the width of the base part. Thus, the continuous conveying carrier can easily cope with the sudden start and sudden stop on the conveying path, and even if the articles are loaded, the continuous conveying carrier and the articles can still effectively cope with the conveying process of the sudden start and sudden stop. Meanwhile, the cuboid structure of the base part is easy to process.

The continuous conveying carrier is placed on the conveying path and is not fixed with the conveying chain plate or the conveying belt, and the continuous conveying carrier can synchronously move with the conveying surface or can slide and rub with the conveying surface. The sliding friction between the continuous conveyance carrier and the conveyance surface needs to suppress the movement tendency of the continuous conveyance carrier to spin, and although the stopper surface of the continuous conveyance carrier can effectively suppress the movement tendency of the spin, the degree of suppression needs to be enhanced. For this purpose, the invention provides a preferred solution, wherein the bottom of the base part is provided with only two guide surfaces with planar structures, the guide surfaces are distributed on two opposite sides of the bottom of the base part, the guide surfaces are connected with the supporting surfaces and are intersected, and the two guide surfaces are symmetrically distributed relative to the central line of the base part. When the continuous conveying carrier and the conveying surface move relatively and slide and rub, the friction force applied to the base part on the two sides provided with the guide surfaces is small, so that the space posture of the continuous conveying carrier on the conveying surface is easy to maintain, and the degree of inhibiting the movement trend of autorotation is enhanced.

The close combination of the continuous conveying carrier and the conveying path has remarkable effect on the smooth conveying of the articles by the continuous conveying carrier. The continuous conveying carrier is provided with a limiting surface at the base part, so that the limiting surface can accept the limiting action from the left side and the right side, and the continuous conveying carrier can also accept the limiting action from the upper side and the lower side. Therefore, in the technical scheme, only two sliding grooves are arranged at the top of the base part, the sliding grooves are distributed on two opposite sides of the top of the base part, the direction from any sliding groove to the other sliding groove is perpendicular to the direction from any guiding surface to the other guiding surface, the cross section of the base part in the direction from any guiding surface to the other guiding surface is in an inverted T shape, and the two sliding grooves are symmetrically distributed relative to the central line of the base part. The conveying path can provide downward limiting function for the continuous conveying carrier in the vertical direction only by providing a structure such as a guide rod which can be matched with the chute.

In the production process sequence, the conveying technology is often related to the filling technology, the accessory adding technology, the grouping technology, the carrying technology and the like. The conveying technology needs to provide these technologies with functions corresponding thereto, for example, a function of lifting the article, and it is necessary to be able to arrange a lifting mechanism on the conveying path. The continuous conveying carrier is used as a part of the conveying path on the conveying path, and has no objective requirement of being lifted together with the product; the continuous conveyor should continue on the conveyor path while lifting the articles. Therefore, the continuous conveyance vehicle should have a structure that cooperates with the lifting mechanism, as in the conveyance path. For this purpose, the base part is equipped with the through-hole, the through-hole extends in the direction of perpendicular holding surface, the through-hole communicates with carrying the thing chamber, the through-hole is the round platform shape. The lifting mechanism once lifts the article, can lift the article from the through hole. The round table shape of the through hole can guide the lifting mechanism to lift the article.

The invention adopts the technical scheme that: the conveying equipment provides a technical effect that the equidistant separation and the linear arrangement can be obtained by loading on a circulating conveying path for the article conveying technology through the carrier for continuous conveying. The articles are independently moved on the circulating conveying path only by the continuous conveying carrier, so that the conveying effect of tidy arrangement and easy grouping and arrangement is achieved.
