Integrated machine for sterilizing and pressing, assembly line for sterilizing and pressing combination lid and method therefor

An assembly line for sterilizing and pressing a combination lid, comprising an integrated machine for sterilizing and pressing, configured to sterilize and press the combination lid, the integrated machine for sterilizing and pressing comprising:

• a sterilization case, comprising an outer cylinder and an inner cylinder, wherein the inner cylinder is provided in the outer cylinder, a material mold is installed in the inner cylinder, and the material mold is provided with a plurality of material placing holes;
• and
• pressing devices, wherein each of the pressing devices comprises a driving member and a pressing plate, and the driving member drives the pressing plate to move,
• wherein the material mold is divided into X*Y pressing areas, an area of each of the pressing areas is equal to an area of the pressing plate, number of the pressing devices is X*Y, each of the pressing devices corresponds to each of the pressing areas, and a plurality of the material placing holes are distributed on the X*Y pressing areas;
• and
• the combination lid comprises at least two components, two of the at least two components are correspondingly placed in one of the material placing holes, and the pressing devices press the two components together and then an enclosed cavity is formed between the two components.

• a sterilization case, comprising an outer cylinder and an inner cylinder, wherein the inner cylinder is provided in the outer cylinder, a material mold is installed in the inner cylinder, and the material mold is provided with a plurality of material placing holes;
• and
• pressing devices, wherein each of the pressing devices comprises a driving member and a pressing plate, and the driving member drives the pressing plate to move,
• wherein the material mold is divided into X*Y pressing areas, an area of each of the pressing areas is equal to an area of the pressing plate, number of the pressing devices is X*Y, each of the pressing devices corresponds to each of the pressing areas, and a plurality of the material placing holes are distributed on the X*Y pressing areas;
• the method specifically comprising following steps:
• S1, stacking two components composing a combination lid in each of the material placing holes;
• S2, placing the material mold into the integrated machine for sterilizing and pressing and closing a case door of the integrated machine for sterilizing and pressing;
• S3, vacuuming the integrated machine for sterilizing and pressing to a vacuum state and heating up inside the integrated machine for sterilizing and pressing;
• S4, spraying sterilizing gas into a sterilizing system inside the integrated machine for sterilizing and pressing, then setting pressure inside the integrated machine for sterilizing and pressing to a range of 0.1 MPa to 0.3 MPa and temperature inside the integrated machine for sterilizing and pressing to 115° C. to 121° C., and continuously spraying sterilizing gas for 15 minutes to 30 minutes to perform sterilization;
• S5, vacuuming the integrated machine for sterilizing and pressing to the vacuum state again;
• S6, drying inside the integrated machine for sterilizing and pressing to obtain a sterilized combination lid;
• S7, pressing down X*Y pressing devices one by one until the last pressing device completes the pressing action, so as to complete pressing of the combination lid;
• and
• S8, adjusting air pressure inside the integrated machine for sterilizing and pressing and opening a case door of the integrated machine for sterilizing and pressing, so as to complete production of the combination lid.
