Description

Self-powered case loader

The present invention relates to the packing machine of beer packing mechanical field.

Packing machine is to use in the mechanical device of brewery packing shop ending workshop section, is used for the finished beer bottle is taken off the plastic box and its conveying left of packing into from a defeated bottle chain road.

No matter be developed country or domestic, the structure of packing machine and mode of motion are on the whole identical: all be with the accurate complicated drive system of a cover, drive clamping device clamping bottle from the defeated bottle chain road with power input (6-8kw) and do vertical-lift, curve level displacement, decline, at last bottle is pitched in moulding case; Adorning the case of moulding of bottle is sent by the defeated case chain road of level that power (1-2kw) drives.

The common feature of such packing machine is except all need dynamicly importing, and more distinct issues are drive systems, and especially the drive system of clamping device is undue accurate complicated, and it is high to control the cumbersome packing machine price that causes.With 20000 bottles packing machine per hour is example, homemade unit price 350,000-500,000 yuan, and import higher, the packing machine of Rashid Sidek Lanace very causes sells for millions of units! Cause domestic middle microbrewery more than 80% all forbidding when purchasing manufacturing line, will not buy, would rather adopt the man power encasement packing machine.This just brings the problem of two aspects: the one, and labor strength is big, and personal safety can not get guarantee, the 2nd, the extreme depression in packing machine market.

The objective of the invention is to develop the diverse novel encasing machine of a kind of structure and operation scheme and prior art, the action of its vanning and outlet need not the power input (need only micro-control energy), but, utilize the intrinsic gravity position potential energy self-operated type of the beer bottle self of waiting to case to finish by tool machine mechanical structure simply cleverly.This self-powered case loader that does not have power-driven system under the prerequisite that reaches same vanning speed and other relevant index, price but be no more than the prior art packing machine 1/5!

For reaching the technical scheme that goal of the invention is taked:

One structure: (with reference to accompanying drawing 1: the self-powered case loader structural representation)

1, vanning part:

1. but the pressure pin of the parallel interlock change of left and right horizontal position is (1) 4, and bottle to be cased divides 4 row quilts bottle thereafter to promote to enter on it and reach 4 * 6;

2. can change the plate washer (2) of position up and down, effect is that the follow procedure requirement is decontroled or resistance shelves bottle enters pressure pin (1);

3. the clamping device of clamping bottle (3) (annotate: declare for me and accepted the patented technology that first trial is qualified and announced by Patent Office by this technology, application number: 99106276.0, publication No. CN1241518A) effect is to utilize the action of cylinder (4) to control the clamping bar clamping of this mechanism and discharge bottle;

4. (3) are connected with counterweight (5) and by pulley bearing, can make clamping device and counterweight vertical lift through steel rope, the gravity of counterweight is greater than the weight of clamping device but less than the total weight of clamping device and 24 bottled beers.

5. (14) are for reducing the buffer gear of (3) up-and-down movement impact to terminal.

2, outlet part:

1. horizontal slideway (6), sky to be bottled are moulded case (13) and are entered the vanning position thus;

2. inclined ramp (7), the case of reinventing of adorning bottle skids off under oblique thus;

3. can rotate around the axle that is fixed in (6), (7) flex point, and by the holder punch-out equipment structure 8 of its supporting), the fixing axle sleeve of its right front ends can limit moulds the final position that case moves right;

4. (9) be rigidly secured to (8) be fixed in (6), (7) flex point the axle be the circular arc slideway in the center of circle, groove is colluded in its underpart;

5. (10) are the electromagnetism actuating mechanisms, and it colludes tooth and catches on the groove that colludes of (9) when being horizontal in (8).When electromagnetic mechanism energising action, collude tooth and open, (8) are swayed down fall behind, the vertex of the right-hand member inhibiting device of (8) must be lower than the slideway plane;

6. the right front ends bottom of (8) is fixed with retracing spring (11);

7. supporting the swing arm lever (12) that can rotate around it perpendicular to the fixing axle of slideway working direction, when its upper end was depressed, (11) that compression is in (8) of extreme lower position can abovely be lifted in the lower end;

Two, operation state mode and dependent program:

1, initial condition:

(1) is in supporting bottle position;

(2) be shown in an open position;

(3) be in vertical extreme higher position;

(4) be in the not compressive state of dying, the clamping bar of (3) is in the not clamping bottle state of opening;

(5) be in vertical extreme lower position;

(8) be horizontal;

(9) bottom is colluded groove and is caught on by the tooth that colludes of (10);

(12) upper end is picked up.

2, operation program:

Sky is moulded case and is entered (8) and spacing by it by (6), and related sensor sends signal;

Four row bottles move ahead and reach 6 bottle positions along pressure pin, and related sensor sends signal;

More than two conditions possess simultaneously, the signal of two sensors sends control signal through the effect of coincidence gate signal device, this control action makes:

1. (4) give gas, and cylinder promotes clamping bar clamping bottle;

2. (1) horizontal displacement aligns with barrier, and bottle loses supporting;

3. the baffle plate vertically-acting blocks the 7th bottle;

More than coefficient result:

Clamping device (3) clamping bottle overcomes vertical decline of the gravity of counterweight (5) to be fallen into bottle to mould in the case.

When bottle dropped down onto nadir, related sensor sent signal, and this signal control (4) is died, and the clamping bar of (3) is resetted bottle is pitched in moulding case.

Pitched the clamping device (3) of bottle because of the gravity of its gravity less than (5), and (5) traction of being fallen is risen and is resetted.

When clamping device (3) when being reset to vertex, related sensor sends signal, this signal control:

1. pressure pin resets and is in supporting bottle position;

2. baffle plate resets to be in and decontrols the bottle position;

3. the groove that colludes that tooth leaves (9) is colluded in the instantaneous energising of electromagnetism actuating mechanism (10) action, (8) whereabouts of swaying, and its right-hand member vertex is lower than the slip plane of slideway (7).

More than coefficient result:

Follow-up bottle enters pressure pin; The case of reinventing of adorning bottle skids off along inclined ramp (7) because of the thrust combined action of the stressed and follow-up empty van that tilts.

In the downslide process, reinvent case the upper end of (12) is depressed, end is picked up under (12), compresses the retracing spring (11) of the right front ends bottom of (8) that are in heeling condition, makes its energy storage.Case is stressed moulds case greater than follow-up sky because of reinventing, and the follow-up sky of its speed of advance is moulded case and wanted fast, causes two to mould and draw back a bit of distance between the case.When the right front ends of (8) was left in the back lower edge of reinventing case, the spring of energy storage made and is asking empty (8) of moulding case to reset in horizontality, and the groove that colludes of (9) is had the tooth that colludes of action of the spring to catch on the location simultaneously, makes (8) keep level attitude.(with reference to accompanying drawing 2: holder case, oscillating arm mechanisms course of action scheme drawing)

When the assigned position of follow-up empty van horizontal motion, when the bottle on the pressure pin reaches 4 * 6 simultaneously, begin new on-cycle vanning action again to (8).

Compared with prior art, the most significant advantage of this invention and progress and meaning are:

1, the packing machine of prior art, the driving in Wine bottle holder and defeated loaded van chain road, particularly the former, from the accounted for content of packing machine 2/3 of structure, and their material require tight, the working accuracy height, assembling is complicated, is the basic reason that packing machine cost and even price soar.This invention need not power the self-operated type structure of input replaced these two parts fully, therefore easy to manufacture, cost reduces, price is lower than 1/5 of prior art packing machine.

Though 2, structure is simplified, running velocity and reliability improve on the contrary.

Vertical-lift, curve level displacement that the clamping device clamping bottle of prior art packing machine is done, down maneuver, doubly to the bottle height, and whole movement locus length 6-8 is doubly to the bottle height apart from 2-3 in its vertical-lift.And the vanning operating distance of this invention bottle, i.e. vertical landing highly is slightly larger than one times of height of bottle.The shortening at double of operating distance has relatively just improved vanning speed.Therefore although each actuation cycle of packing machine of this invention is only adorned a case (24 bottles), its speed and each actuation cycle that is not less than prior art are adorned the packing machine of 2-3 case.And reaching under the prerequisite of effect same, physical construction is simple more, and its reliability is high more, and operation, maintenance cost are low.

3, energy savings is catered to world's up-to-date technology trend.

The prior art packing machine pattern overwhelming majority utilizes driven by energy that bottle is fallen after rise to original position behind vertical-lift 2-3 times of bottle height in position again; Compare this invention and make bottle vertical drop and produce the self-operated type vanning pattern of other a series of relevant actions with the gravitional force of whereabouts bottle interlocking in position, the former obviously belongs to the useless consumption of the energy! In fact the input of the packing machine power of prior art is generally 6-8 kilowatt, and the packing machine of this invention does not have the power input, has only very a spot of control energy input, comprise the clamping device cylinder, pressure pin, plate washer cylinder gas, the electricity consumption of electromagnetism actuating mechanism lumps together and also is no more than the 6-8 hectowatt, only reaches the former 1/10! See it is to meet very much world's up-to-date technology trend from the energy resource consumption angle.

4, all over seeing the world and even domestic packing machine manufacturing technology, except the improvement of some minor matters, structure has become typing all with pattern, thousand people one side, no big breakthrough upgrading has the development tendency that becomes increasingly complex on the contrary, especially domestic, almost completely indiscriminately imitate external.Perhaps, this invention could be called out the New Times of a packing machine to " injured in the sinews or bones " of prior art!

Claims

Be applied to the unique technical proposal of self-powered case loader, it is characterized in that:

1, for the vanning action of packing machine, although final action all is that bottle is packed in the plastic box, but the packing machine of prior art, before final action, all there is one with the process of bottle, thereby must dynamic input drives clamping device clamping bottle lifting work done from the distance of 2-3 times of bottle height of original position vertical-lift;
