Specific embodiment
The utility model is described in further detail below in conjunction with attached drawing.
This specific embodiment is only the explanation to the utility model, is not limitations of the present invention, ability
Field technique personnel can according to need the modification that not creative contribution is made to the present embodiment after reading this specification, but
As long as all by the protection of Patent Law in the scope of the claims of the utility model.
As depicted in figs. 1 and 2, including conveying mechanism 1, filling mechanism 2, set on the automatic lower cover machine of 1 side of conveying mechanism
Structure 3 and capping machine 5, conveying mechanism 1 are roll shaft or conveyer belt, and lower lid mechanism 3 includes bracket 31, is connected on bracket 31 and uses automatically
In stack lid rack 32, for prevent in rack 32 positioned at the bottom lid fall door component 33, be used for
By be located at the bottom lid above lid be pushed against the abutting component 34 of 32 inner wall of rack and be used to intercept charging basket to
Intercepting component 35 immediately below rack 32.
As shown in Figure 3, wherein rack 32 is cylindrical in shape and its axial, door component vertical with 1 direction of transfer of conveying mechanism
33 include that first driving device and being connected in first driving device is located at below rack 32 for preventing the lid of the bottom
The baffle 332 fallen, first driving device include the first cylinder 331 being connected on bracket 31, the piston rod of the first cylinder 331
It is connect with baffle 332；When the first cylinder 331 is shunk, baffle 332 will be separated with rack 32, be now placed in the most bottom of rack 32
The lid of layer will drop down on charging basket, and when the elongation of the first cylinder 331, baffle 332 is located at the underface of rack 32, to prevent stop bit
It is fallen in the lid in rack 32.
Component 34 is pushed against to include the second driving device and be connected in the second driving device for the lid of the bottom will to be located at
Lid above body is pushed against the abutting plate 342 of 32 inner wall of rack, wherein the second driving device includes being connected to rack 32
The second cylinder 341 on outer wall, the piston rod of the second cylinder 341 is through rack 32 and end is located in rack 32 and is located at
Abutting plate 342 in rack 32 connects, and pushes against plate 342 when the elongation of the second cylinder 341 and to be located at most bottom in rack 32
Lid above the lid of layer offsets with 32 inner wall of rack, to avoid when baffle 332 is separated with rack 32, positioned at putting
The lid in frame 32 above the lid of the bottom is set as the lid of the bottom is fallen together；When the first cylinder 331 is extended to incite somebody to action
When baffle 332 is pushed into 32 bottom of rack, the second cylinder 341 is shunk so that pushing against plate 342 and lid disengaging, and lid falls to gear
On plate 332, to facilitate the placement of lid next time；And abutting plate 342 is arc-shaped, concave surface is affixed towards lid and with lid,
So that the abutting effect for pushing against plate 342 is more preferable（Referring to fig. 4）.
Intercepting component 35 includes third driving device and is connected in third driving device for intercepting charging basket to placement
The catching sheet 352 of 32 bottom of frame, third driving device include being connected to rack 32 close to the third cylinder 351 of 5 side of capping machine,
The piston rod of third cylinder 351 is connected with catching sheet 352；After charging basket is filled, charging basket is as conveying mechanism 1 is to automatic lower cover
When being moved to corresponding position under rack 32 at mechanism 3, the elongation of third cylinder 351 makes catching sheet 352 be located at conveying mechanism 1
Top and charging basket contradict, and to prevent charging basket from continuing to move to, facilitate and place lid on feed barrel, after lid is put in charging basket completion, third
Cylinder 351 is shunk so that catching sheet 352 rises, and charging basket will be continued to move to conveying mechanism 1 to carry out gland at this time.
The support frame 311 slid along the vertical direction for bracket 31 is provided between bracket 31 and ground, so that bracket
31 can slide on support frame 311 according to the height of charging basket to adjust the height of automatic lower lid mechanism 3；It is arranged on bracket 31
There is positioning screw 312, one end of positioning screw 312 is abutted through bracket 31 with support frame 311, when 31 position of bracket is adjusted
Afterwards, rotational positioning screw 312, so that one end of positioning screw 312 and support frame 311 contradict, such bracket 31 and support frame 311
Between position fix, i.e. the height of bracket 31 is fixed, and the scope of application of automatic lower lid mechanism 3 is expanded.
As shown in Figure 2 and Figure 5, filling mechanism 2 includes the splendid attire bucket 21 for containing material, contains setting right above bucket 21
There is the dispersion machine 4 including stirring bucket 41 and discharge port 42, is detachably provided on discharge port 42 for filtering from stirring bucket 41
The filter device of the material of discharge, filter device include the pan 422 excessively for filter material and are fixed at discharge port 42
On for placing the filtering frame 421 of pan 422, at work, dispersion machine 4 forms the paintings of needs after raw material is broken up mixing
Material, coating are flowed by the filtering of pan 422 by discharge port 42 and are contained in bucket 21, can be filled while breaing up mixing in this way
Coatings, it is more convenient, and the coating by filtering is finer and smoother, better quality；Because crossing pan 422 to be detachably placed on
On filter stand 421, so will cross pan 422 when needing to clear up pan 422 and remove and then clear up from rack 32, clearly
Pan 422 will be crossed after having managed and is put into filtering frame 421, and structure is simple and easy cleaning.
Workflow is as follows：The corresponding position in 32 lower section of rack is moved to by conveying mechanism 1 after charging basket is filled
When, the elongation of third cylinder 351 pushes catching sheet 352 to be moved down along the vertical direction so that charging basket is located at the underface nothing of rack 32
Method is mobile, and the first cylinder 331 is shunk to remove baffle 332 from 32 bottom of rack at this time, so that being located at the most bottom of rack 32
The lid of layer drops down on charging basket, meanwhile, the elongation of the second cylinder 341 is to push abutting plate 342 that will be located at 32 bottom of rack
The inner wall of lid and rack 32 above lid pushes against, so that the lid being located above the lid of 32 bottom of rack can not
It falls；After lid is fallen on charging basket, third cylinder 351 is shunk to drive catching sheet 352 to rise along the vertical direction, so that covering
The charging basket of lid continues transmission to carry out gland, meanwhile, the first cylinder 331 is extended so that baffle 332 is moved to rack 32
Bottom, then the second cylinder 341 is shunk to drive abutting plate 342 to separate with the lid pushed against, so that lid, which is fallen, sets baffle 332
On, to facilitate lower cover next time；It does not need manually to be placed on lid on filled charging basket in this way, while having saved manpower
It improves work efficiency.
The above is only the exemplary embodiment of the utility model, the protection scope rather than limited the present invention,
The protection scope of the utility model is determined by the attached claims.
