Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of product packaging technology, specifically a quantitative weighing and packaging device for shellfish. Background Technology

[0002] Shellfish, as a type of seafood, require packaging before sale. A search revealed a Chinese patent (CN218401056U) that discloses a quantitatively packaged weighing device for seafood testing. The device includes a base plate, a drive motor, a second belt, a weighing platform, and a connecting block. A storage basket is installed above the load-bearing plate, with a discharge port below it. A support plate is located behind the load-bearing plate and the base plate, and a weighing platform is fixedly installed in the center of the front of the support plate. A baffle is fixedly installed above the weighing platform. A cylinder is fixedly installed below the weighing platform, and a connecting plate is installed below the cylinder. A connecting column connects the connecting block and the clamping plate. This quantitatively packaged seafood testing weighing device works as follows: when the seafood product falls into the packaging box, the third belt will drive the packaging box to the bottom of the packaging box lid. The cylinder will work to make the connecting block move downward, and the clamping plate will move to both sides to put down the packaging box lid. Moreover, the downward force of the connecting block will be applied to the packaging box lid, so that the packaging box lid covers the packaging box, completing the packaging.

[0003] Currently, during the packaging process of shellfish products, the lack of treatment of the seawater inside can easily lead to errors in the net content of the packaging containers, resulting in some short weight. Utility Model Content

[0031] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0032] As one embodiment of this utility model, the top surface of the fixed base 201 is provided with a feed inlet 204, the bottom end of which extends into the interior of the conveying pipe 202, providing a stable feeding channel for shellfish products and allowing the material to smoothly enter the conveying mechanism 2. This design ensures a smooth feeding process, avoids jamming of shellfish due to an insufficiently small feed inlet or improper positioning, and improves the continuity of the overall packaging process.

[0033] As an embodiment of this utility model, the top surface of the packaging platform 1 is further equipped with a feeding hopper 4, the bottom end of the feeding hopper 4 is connected to the top end of the feeding port 204, which facilitates the centralized delivery of shellfish products. In addition, the large capacity design of the feeding hopper 4 can temporarily store materials, ensuring continuous material supply from the conveying mechanism 2, which is especially suitable for batch packaging scenarios.

[0034] As an embodiment of this utility model, a discharge port 206 is further provided on one side of the bottom surface of the conveying pipe 202. The bottom end of the discharge port 206 is connected to the discharge pipe 8, which accurately guides the conveyed shellfish to the packaging position, avoids the shellfish products from scattering, ensures that the shellfish products fall steadily into the packaging container, and reduces the breakage rate.

[0035] As an embodiment of this utility model, a placement groove 6 is further provided on one side of the packing table 1, and a packaging tube 7 is provided inside the placement groove 6. The packaging tube 7 is located directly below the discharge pipe 8, forming a fixed packing station, which facilitates the operator to quickly place and change packaging containers.

[0036] As an embodiment of this utility model, the packaging tube 7 further includes a tube body 701, with an anti-slip pad 702 connected to the bottom surface of the tube body 701. An electronic scale 10 is embedded in the bottom surface of the placement groove 6. The sensing end of the electronic scale 10 contacts the bottom surface of the anti-slip pad 702.

[0038] As an embodiment of this utility model, a touch screen 9 is further installed on one side of the outer wall of the packaging table 1. The touch screen 9 can integrate the functions of controlling the start and stop of the motor 3 and displaying and setting the electronic scale 10, so as to realize the intelligent operation of the equipment.

[0039] Specifically, the working principle of this shellfish quantitative weighing and packaging device is as follows: During use, the operator first places the shellfish products into the feeding hopper 4 on the top surface of the packaging platform 1. The feeding hopper 4 temporarily stores the material and continuously supplies it to the conveying mechanism 2 through the feeding port 204. The motor 3 drives the auger 203 inside the conveying pipe 202 to rotate, pushing the shellfish products from the feeding end to the discharging end. During this process, the filter screen 205 intercepts the shellfish products, causing the carried water to fall. The filtrate is collected by the guide slope 502 of the water collection box 5 and discharged through the drain outlet 503, avoiding water stains. When the shellfish products reach the discharge port 206 of the conveying pipe 202, they fall into the packaging cylinder 7 in the placement trough 6 through the discharge pipe 8. The anti-slip pad 702 at the bottom of the packaging cylinder 7 contacts the electronic scale 10. The electronic scale 10 monitors the weight data in real time and feeds it back to the touch screen 9. The operator can set the packaging weight and control the start and stop of the motor 3 through the touch screen 9 to achieve precise quantitative packaging. When the shellfish in packaging tube 7 reach the set weight, the operator replaces packaging tube 7 and continues to complete the subsequent packaging operations. The entire process realizes automated feeding, water filtration, weighing and packaging, improving the efficiency and accuracy of shellfish packaging.
