The detailed description of invention
As shown in Figure 1, cap applying apparatus of the present invention comprises electrolysis by water to produce mixture ratio is the used gas generator 11 of 2: 1 hydrogen, oxygen gas mixture, dress water with case 12 and adds the device 13 of water to gas generator 11.Gas generator 11 constitutes in order to supply with the gas feeder of hydrogen, oxygen gas mixture.
Gas generator 11 is made of a lot of electrolytic baths, can produce for example 100 liters hydrogen, oxygen gas mixture in adding 15A DC current one hour.In general, producer splits water into two parts of hydrogen and a oxygen as its fundamental element by electrolysis.Producer automatically is mixed into hydrogen and oxygen 2: 1 best combustion ratio.To supply with enhancer 15 by filter 14 by hydrogen, oxygen gas mixture that gas generator 11 produces.Filter 14 is removed the aerosoles that produces and moisture etc. in the decomposition of water in order to purify the gas that is produced by producer.
Enhancer 15 is made of the casing that methyl alcohol is housed more than one or.Pure hydrogen, oxygen gas mixture flow to enhancer and make it be rich in flammable alcohol vapor.The hydrogen, oxygen gas mixture that is rich in methyl alcohol gas by the case rising pouring at enhancer go into hydrogen, oxygen gas mixture produces.At hydrogen, oxygen gas mixture is that flame temperature is about 3200 ℃ under the pure situation.Although flame temperature was lower and be 2500 ℃ when hydrogen, the oxygen gas mixture of methyl alcohol gas was rich in employing, the energy of flame has increased.Just, the burning of hydrogen and alcohol (methyl alcohol) makes flame temperature drop to about 2500~2700 ℃ and meanwhile increase or improved the energy of flame.Hydrogen, the oxygen gas mixture of methyl alcohol gas is rich in employing, and 70% of flame energy is to be produced by the burning of hydrogen, and the 30%th, produce by the burning of methyl alcohol.The some other details relevant with producer 11, filter 14 and enhancer 15 no longer given explanation at this, because these devices are familiar with this professional people.
Again as shown in Figure 1, present device also comprises the casing 16 of preserving methyl alcohol and in order to add the adding material device 17 of methyl alcohol to enhancer 15.Adopted methyl alcohol in this embodiment, but also the alcohol of available other kinds replaces methyl alcohol.
Hydrogen, oxygen gas mixture are sent to burning installation 22 by flame check device 20 and change-over valve 21.Because this equipment is so designed, promptly the hydrogen that is produced by gas generator 11, oxygen gas mixture are in burning installation 22 internal combustion, and this just needn't store hydrogen, oxygen gas mixture.Therefore, just can advantageously reduce the space of cap applying apparatus.
Flame check device 20 is made of hood-shaped filter 25, with spring 26 filter is pressed against on the seal ring 27, thereby the flame that prevents burning installation 22 drives in the wrong direction.Change-over valve 21 can be in two positions.In primary importance, change-over valve 21 connecting pipeline L1 and L2 are at second place change-over valve 21 connecting pipeline L2 and L3.Make hydrogen, oxygen gas mixture supply to burning installation 22 and burn in primary importance from enhancer 15.Make air supply to burning installation 22 and make it flame-out in the second place from air feeder.
Burning installation 22 has one group or nozzle 31 in a row, and each nozzle 31 has the opening that therefrom sprays hydrogen, oxygen gas mixture and produces tiny flame.Thereby can produce one group or tiny flame in a row.Be provided with firing unit 32 near one of them nozzle 31, in order to light all nozzles 31.
Flame monitoring camera 33 is positioned at the oblique upper of burning installation 22.On a position of burning installation 22 oblique uppers, also be provided with detector 34, in order to the leakage of detection gas and fault and the existing problems in the burning installation 22.
Also be provided with controller 35, in order to gas generator 11, casing 12,16 and burning installation 22 are done comprehensively control.On the one hand controller 35 automatically starts cap applying apparatus and does not need operator's intervention.Controller 35 control gaseous generation speed, hydrogen, oxygen gas mixture consumption and be added in voltage on the gas generator 11 on the other hand.Native system makes the monitored results of flame monitoring camera 33 and the testing result input controller 35 of detector 34 in design.
When hydrogen, oxygen gas mixture burning, do not need air (oxygen).Do not produce carbon dioxide in the combustion process yet.In addition, when containing the hydrogen of small amount of methanol, oxygen gas mixture burning, only need little air, only produce amounts of carbon dioxide.Therefore, removed from and some relevant particular requirements of cap applying apparatus have been installed.In addition, its very high diffustivity also compares safety even hydrogen takes place to leak.
Be shown among Fig. 2,3 in order to the lid that is contained in by present device on the packing container.Lid s1 integrally makes with polyethylene one resinous materials, and comprise the main body 50 that becomes U-shaped substantially, on the main body 50 around hinge 54 rotate supporting pulling-on piece 52 and be bearing on the main body 50 around what hinge 54 and pulling-on piece 52 were done chain rotation and poke tabs 53.In pull-up and when rotating pulling-on piece 52, also turn back and poke the packing of tabs place part on the packing container with the tabs 53 of poking that pulling-on piece 52 is chain.Main body also has pulling-on piece supporting part 50a.Forming pallet 50b on the close position of pulling-on piece 52 on the pulling-on piece supporting part 50a of main body 50.Like this, by pulling-on piece 52 sides and engaging of pallet 50b pulling-on piece 52 is clamped on the main body 50.Other relevant with cover body structure are stated from Japanese Laid-Open Patent Application No.Hei-8-132855 to understanding the present invention and more nonessential details, and its disclosure is classified bibliography as in this explanation.Also can adopt cap applying apparatus of the present invention that it is contained on the packing container for having the lid different with structure with shape shown in Fig. 2 .3.
Below the pickup device that will more specifically be illustrated helps lid 51 is installed on the part that must load onto lid on the packing container in order to pick up lid then.Pickup device with lid 51 deliver to burning installation 22 directly over as shown in Figure 3, so burning installation 22 is to one section specified time of the following peripheral of lid 51 heating.
A position delivered to lid 51 then by pickup device, in this position lid 51 is pressed against packing container and must loads onto on the part of lid.Therefore, the poly-vinyl resin that melts on lid 51 following peripherals engages with the outermost layer poly-vinyl resin that forms on the packing container surface.Like this, just lid 51 is installed on the expection position of packing container.
Because to the flame of burning installation 22 is to make that it directly contacts with the following peripheral of lid 51 or direct contact basically, the fusing of the periphery of lid 51 in the time cycle of extremely lacking.This has just accelerated the operating speed of cap applying apparatus.In addition, owing to do not need special heating arrangement, the cost of cap applying apparatus just can reduce.
The various details relevant with burning installation 22 can be indicated in Fig. 4,5,6.Burning installation 22 comprises burner plate 41, in burner plate 41, form much in order to the hole 43 of static jet with much be fixed on nozzle 31 in the nozzle fixed orifice 43 by sealing member 45.Preferably adopt the material nozzle 31 of low heat conductivity.
As shown in Figure 4, nozzle fixed orifice 43 is with the mode arrangement of U-shaped substantially, and this is corresponding with the shape of the following peripheral of lid 51 substantially in shape.Be fixed on nozzle 31 in the nozzle fixed orifice 43 therefore also substantially with the U-shaped mode arrangement.Because the power that acts on when opening and closing pulling-on piece 52 on the pulling-on piece supporting part 50a of main body 50 of lid 51 is relatively large, in the part P1-P2 of the matrix in hole 43, nozzle fixed orifice 43 is arranged on double in.These parts P1, P2 on the position corresponding to the pulling-on piece supporting part 50a of lid 51.Do the heating of wide slightly part on the configuration of doing double hole 43 in these parts P1, the P2 of hole matrix causes the lid following peripheral corresponding to the zone of lid 51 pulling-on piece supporting part 50a, thereby on the interface of packing container and pulling-on piece supporting part 50a, obtain the bigger section of intensity.
Make each nozzle 31 constitute relatively long narrow-bore tube so that produce tiny flame at each nozzle 31 tip.Because as fuel, therefore the tiny flame that is produced on each nozzle 31 tip is very stable with hydrogen, oxygen gas mixture.
By nozzle 31 is arranged along the profile of lid 51, just make lid 51 following peripherals be heated and melt.In addition, as shown in Figure 4, be arranged to make at nozzle fixed orifice 43 and nozzle 31 hole and nozzle are not set on definite part.This position that the part of hole and nozzle is not set corresponding to lid hinge 54.So just avoid lid 51 hinges 54 to be heated and be out of shape, thereby make hinge 54 unlikely unintentionally or be subjected to the mistake heating accidentally.Like this, make the operation of hinge 54 on lid can not be subjected to bad influence.
Owing to lid 51 following peripherals being heated with a lot of flames independent of each other and melting, can make the fusing of lid very even along the lid periphery.Therefore, make lid 51 be contained in the position that to load onto lid 51 on the packing container reliably.And, different with hot melt, adopt the inventive method after lid is loaded onto packing container, can on lid and packing container interface, obtain very high being connected of intensity.
As mentioned above, the length of nozzle is longer relatively, thereby the surface of the tip of each nozzle 31 and the burner plate 41 enough big distance of being separated by.These characteristics and nozzle 31 are made this point heat of advantageously having avoided flame that combines by low thermal conductivity material and are delivered on the burner plate 41.And because nozzle 31 is made the constant space or the layout of constant space substantially with the U-shaped pattern, all nozzles 31 are not to be lighted by firing unit 32 simultaneously.
Fig. 7~9 are illustrated in the sparking mode of nozzle 31 in the operation of present device.Earlier just shown in Figure 7, if when all nozzles 31 spray, use firing unit 32 igniting at hydrogen, oxygen gas mixture, just make the most close and light as shown in Figure 8, it is lighted remaining nozzle 31 near the nozzle 31 (maybe may be several nozzles 31) of firing unit 32.But, operate effectively for making equipment, all nozzles 31 are lighted.Adopted baffle plate 57 for this reason.With this baffle plate 57 one or several near firing unit 32 nozzle 31 by light be placed on nozzle 31 above.Although hydrogen, the oxygen gas mixture of emitting from unlit nozzle 31 still will be to risings, baffle plate 57 stop mixture gass to rise and make its turn back and side direction in company with sidewind diffusion that at this moment produces.Like this, as long as when lighting the nozzle 31 of the most close firing unit 32 earlier, remaining nozzle 31 then since hydrogen, the oxygen gas mixture of turning back also just lighted.
As shown in figure 10, baffle plate 57 comprises two block body 57a, 57b.Baffle plate 57 rotates supporting and rotates along the direction of arrow on axle 58.Axle 58 is connected with the actuating device that drives the intermittent rotation of baffle plate 57 dos and makes baffle plate 57a, 57b block nozzle 31 from above.More particularly, make baffle plate 57 block nozzle 31 in firing unit 31 startup back rotations and from above.The baffle plate 57 that is positioned at the nozzle top can advantageously be lighted all nozzles 31 by an independent firing unit 32.
Because nozzle 31 must be monitored a lot of flames simultaneously with U-shaped pattern constant pitch arrangement from the upper body.Common infradred sensor has not been well suited for this supervisory function bit, because common infradred sensor generally can not be monitored a lot of flames simultaneously.Like this, the present invention adopts flame monitoring camera 33 as shown in Figure 1, in order to monitoring flame.Figure 11 illustrates flame monitoring camera 33 is placed on mode in the present device.
As shown in figure 11, flame monitoring camera 33 shows (CCD) camera for computer controlled, it is discerned the situation of a plurality of flames as visual data, visual data is analyzed by the analytical equipment related with controller shown in Figure 1 35, thus tone, chromaticity and the brightness of monitoring and definite flame.Survey for the flase drop that the diffuser reflection of avoiding by light causes, can put anti-dazzle device 61 as shown in figure 11 in the back of burning installation 22.In addition, burner plate 41 can be brushed into black.
Below to covering task each subsidiary details relevant and describe in dress lid operation, finishing dress with each control step with entire equipment.Figure 12 illustrates cap applying apparatus of the present invention planar view in operation, and Figure 13 illustrates the time chart that dress covers process, shows at dress and covers the arrangement of time of carrying out various operations in the process.As shown in figure 12, equipment has: bench board 71, and stepper motor 70 rotates bench board in the direction of arrow D; A lot of packing container clampers 72 are contained on the bench board 71, are distributed in the packaging container of all kinds of bench board 71 peripheries in order to clamping; Forwarder 73, the continuous transmission that utilizes Pneumatic pressure that lid 51 is done along the arrow C direction; Extractor 78 does not withdraw from burning installation 22 in order to be transmitted to lid 51 in Equipment Inspection when putting in place.From an aspect, bench board 71 is as transmitting packing container clamper 72 and the conveyer that is subjected to the packing container of clamping.Packing container clamper 72 is along with the rotation of bench board 71 is moved.
Equipment also comprises a lot of pickup devices 80, in order to the lid 51 that picks up self locating device 75.Although single pickup device 80 only is shown, on corresponding to the position of each packing container clamper 72, preferably dispose 12 pickup devices spaced apart along bench board 71 peripheries in Figure 12.Pickup device 80 is contained on the bench board 71, along with bench board 71 rotates.Like this, bench board also is used as the conveyer of pickup device 80.As shown in figure 14, each pickup device 80 preferably includes and vacuum source bonded assembly plate 82, in order to pass through the vacuum hold lid.Vertical shifting was shown in double-headed arrow among Figure 14 about pickup device 80 was done.
Equipment also comprises ejection device 84 as shown in figure 15.Being positioned at the ejection device 84 that the following stated dress covers on the station installs on the outside face of packing container 86 lid 51 by pickup device 80 stickings in order to downward pushing tow pickup device 80.
As shown in figure 12, will be placed in the packing container clamper 72 of adjacency along the packing container that the arrow A direction transmits and make its rotation of passing through bench board 71 do intermittent the rotation in the direction of arrow D and transmit.Bench board 71 is preferably done rotation intermittently and is stopped on 12 positions in position shown in the usefulness arrow A of clamper 72 that packing container is packed into between the position of unloading on the packing container slave unit that lid will be housed shown in the arrow B.Between supplying position shown in the arrow A and forwarder 73, be provided with 6 stations or platform, between the position of unloading shown in forwarder 73 and the arrow B, be provided with 6 stations or platform.
Locate so that pickup device 80 picks up lid 51 by registration device 75 by the lid 51 that forwarder 73 is sent into along the arrow C direction.Pickup device 80 moves down and picks up lid 51 by registration device 75 location.Pickup device 80 usefulness vacuum hold lids 51 and with being moved up by the lid 51 of sticking.So pickup device 80 passes through the circumferential transmission lid 51 of the rotation of bench board 71 along bench board 71.Pickup device is delivered to lid 51 on the heating location that is positioned at burning installation 22 tops, lid 51 following peripherals are heated and makes its fusing.
At this moment, lid 51 still is moved to dress by the pickup device sticking at it and covers station.So the lid 51 of ejection device 84 downward pushing tow following peripherals, and lid 51 is fitted on the required part of packing container through heating and melting.After being loaded onto packing container, lid 51 discharges packing container immediately in the direction of arrow B.
In the above operation, burning installation 22 is in forward on the extended position usually.But, if being transmitted, lid 51 do not put in place, and sensor just detects and does not have lid 51, and burning installation 22 is just return.Therefore, can avoid the overheated and burning installation of pickup device 22 to burn out pickup device.
Figure 13 illustrates the timing chart relevant with operation of equipment shown in Figure 12.Timing diagram expresses that the pick-up operation and the maintenance of the operation (i.e. " action ") of the relative timing situation relevant with inoperation (promptly " stopping ") with the operation (promptly " moving ") of stepper motor 70, ejection device 84 moving between upper-lower position, lid registration device 75 and inoperation, pickup device 80 are operated, the heating of burning installation 22 and do not heat the reach of action and burning installation and withdraw from transposition.
The packing container of advancing forward from the supplying position of arrow B off and on stops at the station (1) that picks up shown in Figure 13 as mentioned above.When the packing container convergence picked up station (1), the lid registration device began lid 51 is placed on the position of being picked up by pickup device 80.Pickup device 80 clamping lids 51, the rotation by bench board 71 enters station shown in Figure 13 (2) and stops again.Station (2) lid 51 for stopping station in the clamping between the intermitten of next bench board 71 of pickup device 80 on this station.Rotation by bench board 71 further advances pickup device 80 to be positioned at heating station (3), to stop once more at this station upper table 71.Go up the following peripheral of burning installation 22 heating at heating station (3) by the lid 51 of pickup device 80 clampings.After the heating, bench board 71 and clamping following peripheral are entered through the pickup device 80 of lid 51 of heating add a cover station (4) and stop.Adding a cover the last ejection device 84 downward pushing tows of station (4) and will be added on the packing container by the lid 51 of pickup device 80 clampings.After lid 51 was pressed packing container, work back 71 forwarded station shown in Figure 13 (5) to and stops.Station (5) stops station for another.Bench board 71 advance subsequently and make have the packing container that adds upper cover body 51 move on to output station (6), stop once more at this station upper table 71.On the packing container slave unit that will have lid on the output station (6), unload.Do not illustrate although give clearly in Figure 13, if it is not in place to detect lid, burning installation just withdraws from order to avoid damage pickup device.
Present device and method can be implemented various advantage.On the one hand, because the hydrogen of being supplied with by gas generating unit, oxygen gas mixture in the burning installation internal combustion, just needn't be stored hydrogen, oxygen gas mixture.So just can reduce the area that cap applying apparatus takies.
In addition, hydrogen combusted, oxygen gas mixture do not need air, can not produce carbon dioxide when burning.Therefore, removed the particular requirement that cap applying apparatus is installed from.
In addition, because hydrogen is the very high gas of diffustivity,, equipment also relatively compares safety even taking place to leak.And, because hydrogen, oxygen gas mixture are used as fuel, just might on each nozzle, form metastable tiny flame.Like this, when the lid profile is arranged nozzle, just the lid following peripheral is heated and is melted and other parts below the lid that can not heat and burn.This just can be avoided the lid hinge fraction to miss accident and the unnecessary phenomenon that is heated and be out of shape.
With a lot of flame heat independent of each other and fusing lid following peripheral the time, can obtain fusing relatively uniformly along the lid periphery.Therefore, lid can be contained in the packing container desired area reliably.This is from also being favourable in the excellent sealing this point that lid and packing container are done after the high strength bonded assembly has been obtained packing container dress lid simultaneously.
It also is very favourable adopting the baffle plate optionally be arranged in the nozzle top, because can light with the single point firearm with a plurality of nozzles corresponding to the mode arrangement of lid following peripheral.
Employing shows that in order to the computer controlled of monitoring each nozzle flame camera is extremely useful, because this just can monitor simultaneously with all flames that a lot of nozzle was sent corresponding to the mode arrangement of lid following peripheral.
In the above description principle of the present invention, advantage and operating mode are described.But, should not think that the present invention that requirement is protected only limits to disclosed specific embodiment.In addition, should regard illustrative as to embodiment described here and nonrestrictive.Other people can make change and change, also can adopt equivalent and do not break away from spirit of the present invention.Therefore, it should be noted in particular that change, change and equivalent that all these classes belong to spirit and scope that claims of the present invention limit all should be included in these claims.
