Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of packaging machine technology, and more particularly to a packaging machine for white kidney bean coffee production. Background Technology

[0002] White kidney beans, also known as white kidney beans, pole beans, or jade beans, belong to the genus *Vigna* of the legume family. They are white in color and originated in Mexico and Argentina in the Americas. Through cultivation, they have adapted to the humid and cold high-altitude regions. Nutritionally, white kidney beans are rich in α-amylase inhibitors and dietary fiber, which effectively block the absorption of starch calories, thus reducing the body's fat intake. At the same time, white kidney beans provide a feeling of fullness, ensuring the absorption of other nutrients while reducing fat and calorie intake.

[0003] Currently, weight loss has become a widely discussed social issue. Utilizing the properties of white kidney beans, coffee made from them can aid in weight loss. As a result, many manufacturers have begun producing white kidney bean coffee. Currently, after preparation, white kidney bean coffee needs to be packaged, making the efficiency of the packaging machine crucial to the overall production efficiency of white kidney bean coffee. Summary of the Invention

[0004] To address the technical problems mentioned in the background section, this invention provides a packaging machine for white kidney bean coffee production.

[0005] This invention is achieved using the following technical solution: a packaging machine for white kidney bean coffee production, comprising...

[0006] A storage box for storing coffee powder. The top of the storage box has an inlet, and the bottom of the storage box has several outlets distributed around the perimeter. Each outlet is equipped with an outlet pipe at the bottom.

[0007] Automatic weighing assembly, the same number as the discharge tube, is used to receive and weigh the coffee powder discharged from the discharge tube;

[0008] The number of bag-taking mechanisms is the same as that of the automatic weighing components, and the bag-taking mechanisms are used to put bags onto the discharge end of the corresponding automatic weighing components.

[0009] Furthermore, the automatic weighing assembly includes a receiving plate, a telescopic sleeve, and a valve mechanism and an intercepting mechanism located within the telescopic sleeve. Both the receiving plate and the telescopic sleeve are located in the discharge pipe. The telescopic sleeve includes an upper cylinder and a lower cylinder that can slide relative to each other. The top of the upper cylinder is fixed to the top surface of the storage tank and covers the discharge port. The bottom of the lower cylinder is fixed to the receiving plate. The valve mechanism controls whether the discharge port and the telescopic sleeve are connected. The intercepting mechanism is used to intercept the material in the telescopic sleeve and is connected to the lower cylinder. The receiving plate and the valve mechanism are also connected by a linkage mechanism so that when the material intercepted by the intercepting mechanism reaches a set weight, the receiving plate moves down to a certain position, causing the linkage mechanism to drive the valve mechanism to close, thereby preventing the discharge port from adding material to the telescopic sleeve.

[0010] The receiving plate also has through holes, and a discharge pipe is connected to the bottom of the through holes. The bottom end of the discharge pipe is used for bagging.

[0011] Furthermore, the valve mechanism includes two opposing sealing plates, each with a horizontal guide rod fixed on the side of the two sealing plates that is far apart from each other. The guide rod moves through the telescopic sleeve and the discharge pipe, and a return spring is installed on the guide rod to facilitate the automatic reset of the sealing plates.

[0012] Furthermore, the linkage mechanism is provided with two sets to be connected to two sealing plates respectively. The linkage mechanism includes a winding wheel fixed on the receiving plate and a connecting rope connected to the winding wheel. One end of the connecting rope passes around the guide wheel installed in the discharge pipe and extends into the telescopic sleeve. The sealing plate is provided with a connecting block connected to the corresponding connecting rope.

[0013] Furthermore, the interception mechanism includes two baffles. One end of the baffle is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the lower cylinder of the telescopic sleeve. A drive motor for driving the baffle to rotate is also installed on the inner wall of the lower cylinder. When the receiving plate descends and the sealing plate aligns to block the discharge port, the drive motor drives the baffle to rotate, thereby causing the material in the telescopic sleeve to fall out.

[0014] Furthermore, an automatic positioning mechanism is installed on the receiving plate to keep the receiving plate in a fixed position when the baffle is rotated open. The automatic positioning mechanism includes a mounting hole in the receiving plate and a positioning pin that is movably located in the mounting hole. The inner wall of the discharge pipe is provided with a positioning pin groove that can be connected to the positioning pin. A strip hole communicating with the mounting hole is opened on the top surface of the receiving plate, and a push rod connected to the positioning pin is slidably connected in the strip hole. The top end of the push rod is used to abut against the bottom surface of the baffle.

[0015] Furthermore, the bag-retrieving mechanism includes a placement box, a bag-retrieving cylinder, and a bag-retrieving motor. The placement box has an opening on one side, and several vertically arranged packaging bags are placed inside the placement box. The output end of the bag-retrieving cylinder is connected to a bag-retrieving suction plate to pick up the packaging bag closest to the opening in the placement box. The bag-retrieving motor is installed on the top of the placement box, and the output end of the bag-retrieving motor is connected to a transmission screw. An installation block is installed on the transmission screw, and a vertically telescopic bag-retrieving telescopic rod is installed on the installation block. A crossbar is connected to the top of the bag-retrieving telescopic rod, and a second bag-retrieving suction plate is installed at one end of the crossbar. The bag-retrieving mechanism also includes a lifting mechanism that drives the bag-retrieving cylinder to rise and fall.

[0016] Furthermore, both the first and second bag-taking adsorption plates use negative pressure to adsorb the packaging bags. Several air holes are provided on their surfaces, and cavities are provided inside. The cavities are connected to an external negative pressure fan through air pipes.

[0017] Furthermore, the container is equipped with a pushing mechanism to move the entire packaging bag toward the opening side, and an elastic baffle is provided on the upper and lower sides of the opening to prevent the packaging bag from tipping over.

[0018] Furthermore, slots are provided on both sides of the discharge pipe housing, which can accommodate bag-removing adsorption plate one and bag-removing adsorption plate two.

[0019] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows:

[0020] The packaging machine proposed in this invention includes a storage box, an automatic weighing component, and a bag-taking mechanism. The storage box is used to store coffee powder. The top of the storage box has an inlet, and the bottom of the storage box has several outlets distributed circumferentially. Each outlet has an outlet pipe installed at its bottom. The number of automatic weighing components is the same as the number of outlet pipes. They are used to receive and weigh the coffee powder discharged from the outlet pipes. The number of bag-taking mechanisms is the same as the number of automatic weighing components. The bag-taking mechanisms are used to put bags onto the discharge end of the corresponding automatic weighing components.

[0021] This invention enables automatic weighing and quantitative measurement of coffee powder, and completes a series of tasks such as automatic bag picking and bagging, thus automating the operation and effectively improving coffee packaging efficiency. Attached Figure Description

[0037] The present invention will now be further described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. It should be noted that, without conflict, the various embodiments or technical features described below can be arbitrarily combined to form new embodiments.

[0038] Example 1:

[0039] Please combine Figure 1-12 The packaging machine for white kidney bean coffee production proposed in this solution includes...

[0040] Storage box 1 is used to store coffee powder. The top of storage box 1 is provided with a feed port 2 for easy addition of coffee powder. The bottom of storage box 1 has several discharge ports (not marked) distributed circumferentially, and each discharge port is equipped with a discharge pipe 10. The discharge pipe 10 can be a transparent pipe to facilitate the passage through its interior.

[0041] The packaging machine also includes an automatic weighing assembly and a bag-picking mechanism 5. The number of automatic weighing assemblies is the same as the number of discharge pipes 10, and they are used to receive and weigh the coffee powder discharged from the discharge pipes 10. The number of bag-picking mechanisms 5 is the same as the number of automatic weighing assemblies, and the bag-picking mechanisms 5 are used to attach bags to the discharge end of the corresponding automatic weighing assembly. This facilitates multi-station packaging and improves production efficiency.

[0042] Reference Figure 9 , Figure 10 The automatic weighing component includes a receiving plate 17, a telescopic sleeve 23, a valve mechanism and an interception mechanism located in the telescopic sleeve 23. The receiving plate 17 and the telescopic sleeve 23 are both located in the discharge pipe 10. The telescopic sleeve includes an upper cylinder and a lower cylinder that can slide relative to each other. The top of the upper cylinder is fixed to the top surface of the storage box 1 and covers the discharge port. The bottom of the lower cylinder is fixed to the receiving plate 17. The valve mechanism controls whether the discharge port and the telescopic sleeve 23 are connected. The interception mechanism is used to intercept the material in the telescopic sleeve 23 and is connected to the lower cylinder. The receiving plate 17 and the valve mechanism are also connected by a linkage mechanism so that when the material intercepted by the interception mechanism reaches the set weight, the receiving plate moves down to a certain position so that the linkage mechanism drives the valve mechanism to close, thereby preventing the discharge port from adding material to the telescopic sleeve.

[0043] The receiving plate 17 is also provided with a through hole, and the bottom of the through hole is connected to a discharge pipe 11. The bottom end of the discharge pipe 11 is used for bagging.

[0044] In an optional embodiment of the present invention, the valve mechanism includes two opposing sealing plates 21. A horizontal guide rod 25 is fixed to the side of each sealing plate 21 that is furthest away from the other. The guide rod 25 movably passes through the telescopic sleeve and the discharge pipe 10, and a return spring is installed on the guide rod 25 to facilitate automatic reset of the sealing plates 21. Under the action of the return spring, the two sealing plates move away from each other. Therefore, when the weight of the material on the receiving plate 17 reaches a set value, it moves down a certain distance, causing the sealing plates 21 to close, thus completing one quantitative feeding process.

[0045] In an optional embodiment of the present invention, the linkage mechanism is provided in two sets, which are respectively connected to the two sealing plates 21. The linkage mechanism includes a winding wheel 19 fixed on the receiving plate 17 and a connecting rope 20 connected to the winding wheel 19. One end of the connecting rope 20 passes around the guide wheel 24 installed in the discharge pipe 10 and extends into the telescopic sleeve 23. The sealing plate 21 is provided with a connecting block 26 connected to the corresponding connecting rope 20. With the above structure, when the receiving plate 17 descends, it can drive the connecting rope 20 to pull the corresponding sealing plate along the sliding direction of the guide rod 25, so that the two sealing plates 21 are finally connected, blocking the corresponding discharge port and completing the quantitative weighing.

[0046] Preferably, the interception mechanism includes two baffles 31. One end of the baffle 31 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the lower cylinder of the telescopic sleeve 23. The inner wall of the lower cylinder is also equipped with a drive motor (not shown) to drive the baffle 31 to rotate. The drive motor is powered by an external power source. When the receiving plate 17 descends and the sealing plate 21 is engaged to block the discharge port, the drive motor drives the baffle 31 to rotate, thereby causing the material in the telescopic sleeve 23 to fall out.

[0047] Combination Figure 10 As can be seen, the upper opening of the through hole 18 on the receiving plate 17 is relatively large, and when the baffle is rotated to the bottom, it can contact the two sides of the opening to prevent material from being leaked to other places.

[0048] For better use, an automatic positioning mechanism is also installed on the receiving plate 17 so that the receiving plate 17 remains fixed in position when the baffle 31 is rotated open. The automatic positioning mechanism includes a mounting hole (not shown) opened in the receiving plate 17 and a positioning pin 35 movably located in the mounting hole. The inner wall of the discharge pipe 10 is provided with a positioning pin groove 36 that can be connected to the positioning pin 35. The top surface of the receiving plate 17 is provided with a strip hole 32 that communicates with the mounting hole, and a push rod 33 connected to the positioning pin 35 is slidably connected in the strip hole 32. The top end of the push rod 33 is used to abut against the bottom surface of the baffle 31.

[0049] Reference Figure 3-7The bag-retrieving mechanism 5 includes a placement box 502, a bag-retrieving cylinder 501, and a bag-retrieving motor 503. The placement box 502 has an opening on one side for easy bag retrieval, and several vertically arranged packaging bags 8 are arranged inside the placement box 502. The packaging bags are arranged closely and orderly for easy bag retrieval. The output end of the bag-picking cylinder 501 is connected to a bag-picking suction plate 504 to pick up the packaging bag 8 closest to the opening in the placement box 502. The bag-picking motor 503 is installed on the top of the placement box 502. The output end of the bag-picking motor 503 is connected to a transmission screw. An installation block 508 is installed on the transmission screw. The bag-picking motor 503 adjusts the lateral position of the installation block 508. A vertically telescopic bag-picking telescopic rod 505 is installed on the installation block 508. The bag-picking telescopic rod 505 is an electric push rod or a cylinder. A crossbar 506 is connected to the top of the bag-picking telescopic rod 505. A second bag-picking suction plate 507 is provided at one end of the crossbar 506. The bag-picking mechanism also includes a lifting machine that drives the bag-picking cylinder 501 to lift.

[0050] In this solution, both the bag-taking adsorption plate 504 and the bag-taking adsorption plate 507 adsorb the packaging bag through negative pressure. Several air holes are provided on their surfaces, and cavities are provided inside. The cavities are connected to an external negative pressure fan through air pipes.

[0051] To facilitate bag removal, a pushing mechanism is provided inside the placement unit 502 to push the packaging bag 8 as a whole towards the opening side. An elastic baffle is provided on both the upper and lower sides of the opening to prevent the packaging bag from tipping over. The pushing mechanism may include an electric push rod and a push plate connected to the output end of the electric push rod. The push plate contacts the packaging bag away from the opening side to push all the packaging bags intermittently towards the opening side.

[0052] To ensure a tighter bag clamping, slots 1101 are provided on both sides of the discharge pipe 11. These slots 1101 can accommodate the first bag-picking adsorption plate 504 and the second bag-picking adsorption plate 507. This prevents the bag from falling off during loading when the first bag-picking adsorption plate 504 and the second bag-picking adsorption plate 507 press the bag into contact with the discharge pipe 11, resulting in more stable and reliable operation.

[0053] The above embodiments are merely preferred embodiments of the present invention and should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of the present invention. Any non-substantial changes and substitutions made by those skilled in the art based on the present invention shall fall within the scope of protection claimed by the present invention.
