Abstract

The invention discloses an automatic packaging process for mixed nuts, which comprises steps of almond proportioning, nut and kernel proportioning, dried fruit proportioning, weighing, mixing, packaging, conveying and boxing. The almond proportioning adopts a first elevator for feeding materials to a 14-hopper metering scale; a second elevator is adopted for feeding materials to a 14-hopper metering scale for the nut and kernel proportioning; materials are fed to a 14-hopper metering scale through a manual feeding line for the dried fruit proportioning; the three kinds of ingredients fall intoa guide hopper after being weighed; the almonds, the nuts and kernels and the dried fruits are mixed in the guide hopper; qualified mixed materials are conveyed to a packaging machine through the guide hopper to be packaged, and then finished products are discharged and are conveyed to an operation table through an automatic conveying line for boxing. By arranging the three different material conveying lines, the materials can be automatically distributed to the 14-hopper metering scales to be weighed and packaged, synchronous conveying of the multiple materials is achieved, manual operationis saved, and automatic and accurate material conveying and packaging are achieved.

Example Embodiment

[0020] The following are specific embodiments of the present invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings to further describe the technical solutions of the present invention, but the present invention is not limited to these embodiments.
[0021] Such as figure 1 As shown, an automatic packaging process for mixed nuts includes almond ingredients, kernel ingredients, dried fruit ingredients, weighing, mixing, packaging, conveying and boxing, such as Figure 2 to Figure 4 As shown, the altar ingredients, nut kernels and dried fruit ingredients adopt mixed nut packaging equipment and are fed and packaged through three batching lines. The altar ingredients are fed by the first elevator 11 to the 14 hopper weighing scale 2. In the dispersing disc 21, 11 groups of radial distributors 22, storage hoppers 23, and weighing hoppers 24 are successively passed through, and then fall into the guide hopper 25 after being weighed. Nut ingredients include macadamia nuts, Walnut kernels, cashew kernels and pistachio kernels are fed into the 14-hopper weighing scale by the second elevator 12, pass through another set of corresponding storage hopper 23 and weighing hopper 24 in turn, and fall into the guide hopper 25 after being weighed. Four vibrating discs 14 are evenly arranged on both sides of the feeding track of the second hoist 12, a counting device 15 is arranged below the discharge port of the vibrating disc 14, and the counting devices 15 on both sides of the feeding track are symmetrically arranged, and the discharging The mouth is located above the feeding track. The nuts are fed to 14 hoppers according to the set type and quantity. Dried fruits include dried raisins, dried blueberries and dried cranberries, which are fed to 14 hoppers through a manual feeding line In the weighing, it passes through the remaining 2 sets of corresponding storage hoppers 23 and weighing hoppers 24 in sequence, and then falls into the guide hopper 25 after being weighed. The almond wood, nuts and dried fruit are mixed in the guide hopper, and the qualified mixing After the material is packaged by the guide hopper to the continuous 8-station packaging machine 3, the finished product is discharged, and then sent to the console for packing via the automatic conveying line.
[0022] By setting up three different batching lines (the first hoist 11, the second hoist 12, and the third feeding line 13), different types of materials can be delivered to the 14-hopper weighing scale 2; the second hoist 12 is loaded The track is provided with a vibrating plate 14 and a corresponding counting device 15. The macadamia nut, walnut, cashew and pistachio nut are put into four vibrating plates 14 respectively, and each vibrating plate 14 vibrates and feeds a kind of nut. Various nuts can be fed into the hopper located on the loading track in a certain amount, so after the hopper passes through each vibrating plate 14 along the horizontal conveying track, the number of single nut materials in each hopper and The total number of all materials is equal to that in other hoppers, which can ensure the complete variety of nut materials after mixing and packaging; transported through three batching lines to the weighed almonds, macadamia nuts, walnuts, and walnuts in the weighing hopper 24 Cashew nut kernels, pistachio nuts, dried raisins, dried blueberries and dried cranberries are mixed in the guide hopper 25, and fall into the packaging machine 3 after being qualified.
[0023] The first hoist 11 and the second hoist 12 are both hopper-type Z-type hoists.
[0024] A distributor is provided on one side of the first hoist 11, which is used to distribute almond wood to the hopper of the first hoist.
[0025] The counting device 15 includes a guide plate 151 and an unloading table 152. The upper end of the guide plate 151 is provided with a detection light curtain 153 for detecting the number of nuts. The guide plate 151 enters the unloading table 152 and then falls into the second elevator. In the hopper of 12, the quantity is detected by the detection light curtain 153, and then feedback information to the control system to control the opening and closing of the guide plate 151 and the lower hopper 152 to realize the control of the number of nuts in the hopper.
[0026] There is a buffer bucket on one side of the packaging machine 3, and the unqualified mixed materials are discharged into the buffer bucket through the guide hopper.
[0027] 14 hopper weighing scale 2 hopper capacity is 1300ml, large hopper, reducing the number of feeding.
[0028] By setting up three different material transportation lines, different types of materials can be delivered to 14-bucket weighing scales, which realizes the simultaneous transportation of multiple materials, saves manual operations, and realizes automated and precise material transportation; the first improvement There are counting devices on both sides of the machine to ensure that there are the same types and quantities of materials in different hoppers and improve the accuracy of subsequent weighing and packaging.
[0029] The weight of almond wood, nuts and dried fruits after ingredients is 25±1g.
[0030] Table 1 Comparison of manual packaging and automatic packaging
[0031]
[0032] In summary, in this embodiment, the automatic packaging requires fewer personnel, large capacity, high accuracy, and relatively low loss and rework rates.
[0033] The specific embodiments described herein are merely examples to illustrate the spirit of the present invention. Those skilled in the art to which the present invention pertains can make various modifications or additions to the specific embodiments described or use similar alternatives, but they will not deviate from the spirit of the present invention or exceed the definition of the appended claims.
