Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of air sterilizer technology, specifically to a feeding mechanism. Background Technology

[0002] With the improvement of people's living standards, cars have become an indispensable means of transportation in daily life. However, the interior environment of cars is prone to the growth of bacteria and viruses, posing a potential threat to the health of drivers and passengers. In order to solve this problem, in-car air sterilizers have emerged. An air sterilizer is a sterilization device, mainly used to eliminate pathogenic microorganisms in the air to achieve the purpose of sterilization and disinfection. Compared with air purifiers, air sterilizers focus more on sterilization and disinfection.

[0003] Existing in-vehicle air sterilizers typically generate ozone and then diffuse it into the air for sterilization. Such devices usually require the installation of a separate oxygen cylinder as a consumable to provide raw materials for ozone production. However, the space inside a car is relatively small, making it inconvenient to install such devices. Even if they can be installed, they will occupy a lot of space inside the car, which undoubtedly reduces the user's range of movement inside the car, reduces the user experience, and causes certain inconvenience to the user. Summary of the Invention

[0004] In order to overcome the above-mentioned technical problems, the purpose of this invention is to provide a feeding mechanism.

[0005] The objective of this invention can be achieved through the following technical solutions:

[0006] A feeding mechanism includes a housing assembly. A feeding mechanism is disposed on the upper part of the housing assembly. The feeding mechanism includes a connector end for connecting an external motor. An eccentric shaft is connected to one edge of the connector end. A driven disc is connected to one end of the eccentric shaft. A protrusion is connected to the outer edge of the driven disc. Rotating the driven disc once drives the protrusion to move a spacer plate once. A driving shaft is connected to one edge of the driven disc. A return-shaped component is slidably disposed on the outer side of the driving shaft. Ejector pins matching receiving holes are symmetrically connected to the upper and lower ends of the return-shaped component. Rotating the driven disc once drives the ejector pins to move up and down reciprocally through the receiving hole once.

[0007] As a further aspect of the present invention: the housing assembly includes a water storage tank, the interior of which is divided by a partition into a reaction chamber for water storage, an atomization chamber, and a feeding chamber for storing the feeding assembly. The atomization chamber is equipped with an ultrasonic atomizing plate, and the top of the feeding chamber is provided with a diffusion groove.

[0008] As a further aspect of the present invention: a blower box is connected to the top of the water storage tank, an exhaust groove is provided on the bottom wall of the blower box, a box cover is provided on the top of the blower box, a first side plate is connected to one side of the water storage tank, and a second side plate is connected to the back of the water storage tank.

[0009] As a further aspect of the present invention: an air inlet pipe is connected to one side of the blower box, and a centrifugal fan is connected to the input end of the air inlet pipe. The centrifugal fan is connected to one side of the water storage tank and is located between the water storage tank and the first side plate. An aeration pump is provided above the side of the water storage tank connected to the centrifugal fan.

[0010] As a further aspect of the present invention: the bottom of the water storage tank is connected to an air inlet pipe that is connected to the bottom of the reaction chamber, the input end of the air inlet pipe is connected to the output end of the aeration pump through a flexible hose, and the bottom of the water storage tank is connected to a water inlet pipe that is connected to the bottom of the reaction chamber and the atomizing chamber respectively.

[0011] As a further aspect of the present invention: the box assembly is provided with a feeding assembly inside, the feeding assembly including a material carrier platform, the top of the material carrier platform having a stepped groove, the center of the stepped groove having a through groove and a feeding groove, the inner outer ring of the stepped groove being rotatably connected to a toggle ring, the outer side of the toggle ring being connected to several sets of spaced-apart partitions, the inside of the toggle ring being fitted with an embedded ring, the top of the embedded ring having several sets of spaced-apart receiving holes, the receiving holes being used to place consumable packs.

[0012] As a further aspect of the present invention: a positioning magnet is provided at the bottom of the material carrier platform, a number of sets of spaced fixing grooves are provided on the inner wall edge of the actuating ring, and an auxiliary magnet matching the positioning magnet is provided at the bottom of the actuating ring.

[0013] As a further aspect of the present invention: the outer edge of the embedded ring is connected with a number of sets of clips and blocks that match the fixing groove. The clips and blocks are used to engage with the fixing groove to fix the embedded ring. One end of the material carrier is connected to a connecting rod. A collection filter cover is rotatably connected to both sides of one end of the material carrier. A reserved groove matching the connecting rod is opened on one side of the collection filter cover.

[0014] The beneficial effects of this invention are:

[0015] This invention utilizes a protrusion along the edge of a driven disc, coupled with a ejector pin. When the driven disc drives the protrusion to rotate and feed the chlorine dioxide tablet consumable package, the ejector pin also moves up and down with the driven disc, puncturing the consumable package and discharging the chlorine dioxide tablets stored inside into the reaction chamber. Thus, both feeding and discharging operations can be completed simultaneously during one rotation of the driven disc, which is convenient and quick. The device eliminates the need for a separate feeding or discharging structure, further simplifying its internal structure, reducing its size, and minimizing its footprint in the vehicle. This does not affect the user's normal movement within the vehicle, greatly facilitating the installation and use of the device in a vehicle. Attached Figure Description

[0030] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0031] like Figure 1-12As shown, a feeding mechanism includes a housing assembly 1, which includes a water storage tank 11. The interior of the water storage tank 11 is divided by partitions into a reaction chamber 111 for water storage, an atomizing chamber 113, and a feeding chamber 112 for storing a feeding assembly 2. The atomizing chamber 113 is equipped with an ultrasonic atomizing plate, which atomizes the water stored within. When the vehicle interior is dry, the ultrasonic atomizing plate can be activated to humidify the interior, further expanding the device's functionality. A diffusion groove is provided on the top of the feeding chamber 112. A blower box 12 is connected to the top of the water storage tank 11. An exhaust groove is provided on the bottom wall of the blower box 12. A cover 13 covers the top of the blower box 12. A first side plate 14 is connected to one side of the water storage tank 11, and a second side plate 15 is connected to the back of the water storage tank 11. An air inlet pipe 16 is connected to one side of the blower box 12. A centrifugal fan 17 is connected to the input end of the air duct 16. The centrifugal fan 17 is connected to one side of the water storage tank 11 and is located between the water storage tank 11 and the first side plate 14. The airflow generated by the centrifugal fan 17 is input into the blower box 12 through the air inlet pipe 16, which can help the gas diffuse. An aeration pump 18 is installed above the side of the water storage tank 11 connected to the centrifugal fan 17. The bottom of the water storage tank 11 is connected to the bottom of the reaction chamber 111 via a communicating air inlet pipe 19. The input end of the air inlet pipe 19 is connected to the output end of the aeration pump 18 via a hose. The connection between the aeration pump 18 and the air inlet pipe 19 can aerate the water stored inside the reaction chamber 111. The bottom of the water storage tank 11 is connected to the bottom of the reaction chamber 111 and the atomizing chamber 113 via communicating water inlet pipes 120. The water inlet pipes 120 can be connected to external pipes to supply water to the reaction chamber 111 and the atomizing chamber 113.

[0032] The housing assembly 1 is internally equipped with a feeding mechanism 2, which includes a loading platform 21. A stepped groove 22 is formed on the top of the loading platform 21, and a through groove 23 and a feeding groove 24 are formed through the center of the stepped groove 22. A positioning magnet 25 is provided at the bottom of the loading platform 21. A rotating ring 26 is rotatably connected to the inner outer ring of the stepped groove 22. The stepped groove 22 is used to install the rotating ring 26, providing stable support and ensuring its stability during rotation. Several sets of spacer plates 27 are connected to the outer side of the rotating ring 26. The spacer plates 27 contact the protrusions 34, thereby driving the rotating ring 26 to rotate by pressing the spacer plates 27. An embedded ring 210 is internally connected to the rotating ring 26. Several sets of spaced fixing grooves 28 are formed along the inner edge of the rotating ring 26. The bottom of the ring 26 is provided with an auxiliary magnet 29 that matches the positioning magnet 25. The positioning magnet 25 can attract the auxiliary magnet 29, thereby positioning the ring 26 when it is installed on the stepped groove 22. The ring 26 is internally locked and connected to an embedded ring 210. The top of the embedded ring 210 has several sets of spaced receiving holes 211. The receiving holes 211 are used to place a chlorine dioxide tablet consumable package that is sealed with aluminum foil on both sides and matches the shape of the embedded ring 210. The receiving holes 211 facilitate the dropping of chlorine dioxide tablets from the consumable package. The outer edge of the embedded ring 210 is connected to several sets of clips and blocks 212 that match the fixing groove 28. The clips and blocks 212 are used to engage with the fixing groove 28 to fix the embedded ring 210. Thus, the embedded ring 210 can move together with the ring 26.

[0033] One end of the loading platform 21 is connected to a connecting rod 213, and two sides of the loading platform 21 are rotatably connected to a collection filter cover 214. A pre-reserved groove 215 matching the connecting rod 213 is provided on one side of the collection filter cover 214. When the feeding mechanism 2 is installed inside the housing assembly 1, since the collection filter cover 214 is movably connected to the loading platform 21, it is perpendicular to the loading platform 21 under the action of gravity, and its bottom is completely submerged below the water surface of the reaction chamber 111. When the consumable package is pierced by the ejector pin 37... Fragments of aluminum foil on the consumable package may fall off. In this case, the aluminum foil fragments fall into the collection filter 214 along with the chlorine dioxide tablets. This ensures that the chlorine dioxide tablets can dissolve normally and also collects the aluminum foil fragments, preventing them from being dispersed into the reaction chamber 111 and causing contamination. When it is necessary to remove the feeding mechanism 2, the side of the collection filter 214 relative to the reserved groove 215 is squeezed by the feeding chamber 112, which will gradually restore it to a horizontal plane that is flush with the loading platform 21, making it easy to remove.

[0034] A feeding assembly 3 is installed inside the upper part of the housing assembly 1. The feeding assembly 3 includes a connector end 31 for connecting an external motor. An eccentric shaft 32 is connected to one edge of the connector end 31. A driven plate 33 is connected to one end of the eccentric shaft 32. A protrusion 34 is connected to the outer edge of the driven plate 33. A drive shaft 35 is connected to one side edge of the driven plate 33. A return member 36 is slidably arranged on the outer side of the drive shaft 35. The upper and lower ends of the return member 36 are symmetrically connected to receiving holes. The matching ejector pin 37 is connected to an external motor via connector 31. The external motor drives the driven plate 33 to make a circular motion, which causes the protrusion 34 to move the actuating ring 26, the embedded ring 210 and the consumable pack to rotate a certain distance, transporting the new chlorine dioxide tablets in the consumable pack to the area below the ejector pin 37, thus achieving the purpose of automatic feeding. When the driven plate 33 rotates, the ejector pin 37 will move up and down, thereby puncturing the corresponding position of the consumable pack and causing the new chlorine dioxide tablets inside to fall out.

[0035] The working principle of this invention is as follows: When the device is in use, water is injected into the reaction chamber 111 and the atomizing chamber 113 through the water inlet pipe 120. The motor drives the connector end 31 to rotate, and the protrusion 34 on the driven plate 33 and the drive shaft 35 also move together. The protrusion 34 can move the actuating ring 26, so that the inner ring 210 and the consumable pack move together, so that a set of receiving holes 211 on the inner ring 210 are below the ejector pin 37. At this time, the drive shaft 35 drives the ejector pin 37 to move up and down, thereby puncturing the consumable pack through the receiving hole 211, so that the chlorine dioxide tablets fall into the collection filter cover 214 and are dissolved in water. The aeration pump 18 delivers gas to the reaction chamber 111 for aeration. The water containing chlorine dioxide evaporates under natural conditions to form chlorine dioxide gas. Then, the centrifugal fan 17 blows air into the blower box 12 through the air inlet pipe 16, thereby blowing out the gas containing chlorine dioxide, which can disinfect the air inside the vehicle.

[0036] The foregoing has provided a detailed description of one embodiment of the present invention, but this description is merely a preferred embodiment and should not be construed as limiting the scope of the invention. All equivalent variations and modifications made within the scope of the claims of this invention should still fall within the patent coverage of this invention.
