A warming chain structure

Abstract

The invention discloses a heating chain structure. An idler wheel on a support slides along a guide rail; when a mechanical arm carrying a bottle blank slides to a transmission assembly, a first gear on a rotation shaft is engaged with a toothed belt in the transmission assembly; the bottle blank sequentially moves forward by being carried by the mechanical arm and under the combined action of the first gear and the toothed belt, the rotation shaft can revolve on its own axis and drive the bottle blank to rotate together by the mechanical arm so that the bottle blank can move forward with rotation; a transmission mechanism in the transmission assembly is connected to a driving mechanism by a transmission shaft, and when the driving mechanism operates, the driving mechanism drives the transmission shaft to rotate so that the transmission shaft drives the transmission mechanism to rotate and thus the toothed belt is driven to rotate; and through control on a driving mechanism rate, a toothed belt movement rate can be adjusted so that a rotation rate of the first gear engaged with the toothed belt can be adjusted and rotational velocity of the bottle blank can be further adjusted and thus rotational velocity requirements on different bottle blanks in heating can be satisfied and good quality of later blow-molded bottles is guaranteed.

Description

Technical field [0001] The invention relates to a preform heating machine, in particular to a heating chain structure inside the heating machine. Background technique [0002] The preforms must be preheated by a warming machine before bottle blowing to ensure the quality of the subsequent blow-molded bottles. Therefore, whether the preforms are evenly heated during the preheating process will affect the quality of the finished bottles. At present, the heating chain structure in the heating machine includes a support and a guide rail with a guide groove installed on the frame of the heating machine. The support is provided with a first sprocket that is parallel to the first sprocket along the direction of the guide rail. A second sprocket installed at the bottom of the sprocket support seat is oppositely arranged. The chain is sleeved on the first sprocket and the second sprocket at the same time, so that the first sprocket, the second sprocket and the chain are integrated into a ...

Problems solved by technology

When the manipulator grabs the preform and runs along the guide rail to the transmission assembly with the heating tube, the third sprocket on the rotating shaft meshes with the chain of the transmission assembly. As the manipulator continues to move along the guide rail with the preform, at the third Under the joint action of the sprocket and the chain, the rotating shaft can rotate by itself, so that the preform can be heated evenly. However, since the transmission assembly has no driving device, the rotation of the manipulator shaft only depends on the host motor, the third sprocket and the chain of the transmission assembly. It is achieved under the combined action, and its rotation speed is unique. However, preforms of different bottle types have different requirements for heating time. Under the condition of unique rotation speed, it is difficult to meet the needs of different bottle types, so that the bottle shape of blow molding in the later stage The quality is not high, or even unqualified, resulting in waste and increased production costs; in addition, when the third sprocket and the chain are initially meshed, because the meshing teeth are relatively small, slipping, jamming, or interference often occur. The meshing is not allowed, so that the transmission stability of the preform is poor. At the same time, due to slipping, jamming or interference, etc., it needs to be shut down for maintenance, so the production efficiency is low; The billet will cause pollution and affect the subsequent filling quality; in addition, the transmission mode of the sprocket and chain has impact and noise during work, which is not suitable for high-speed occasions
