DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0029] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be described clearly and completely below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments.

[0030] In the description of the present invention, it should be noted that the orientations or positional relationships indicated by “center”, “up”, “down”, “left”, “right”, “vertical”, “horizontal”, “inside” and “outside”, etc., are based on the orientations or positional relationships shown in the accompanying drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing the present invention and simplifying the description, rather than indicating or implying that the referred device or element must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore cannot be understood as a limitation on the present invention.

[0031] In the description of the present invention, it should be noted that, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, the terms "installed", "connected" and "connected" should be understood in a broad sense, for example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integrated connection; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium, or it can be the internal communication of two components. For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood according to specific circumstances. This embodiment is written in a progressive manner.

[0032] like Figures 1 to 7 As shown, a rotating table for weighing and quantifying food raw materials of the present invention comprises a base column 1 and a plurality of transfer structures, wherein the base column 1 is fixed and the transfer structures are used to transfer raw materials;

[0033] The base column 1 is provided with an annular groove, which is composed of a first arc groove 2, a second arc groove 3 and two oblique grooves 4. The first arc groove 2 and the second arc groove 3 are staggered in the vertical direction, the first arc groove 2 and the second arc groove 3 are coaxial, and the oblique groove 4 is used to connect the first arc groove 2 and the second arc groove 3. A feeding pipe 9 for feeding is provided on the top of the base column 1;

[0034] The transfer structure includes a guide column 5 slidably mounted in the annular groove, a material receiving barrel 6 is connected to the guide column 5, the top opening of the material receiving barrel 6 is used to receive the raw materials, the bottom opening of the material receiving barrel 6 is blocked by a sealing plate 7, and a quantitative spring 8 is provided on the side wall of the material receiving barrel 6 for providing an upward elastic thrust to the material receiving barrel 6;

[0035] Wherein, a guide structure for providing support for a plurality of material receiving barrels 6 is arranged on the base column 1 .

[0036] In detail, the position of the first arc groove 2 is higher than the second arc groove 3, and the guide column 5 can slide between the first arc groove 2 and the second arc groove 3 through the inclined groove 4. The guide structure is used to provide support and guidance for each receiving barrel 6 so that the direction of the receiving barrel 6 remains unchanged when it moves along the annular groove. The base column 1 provides support for the feeding pipe 9, the guide structure and the receiving barrel 6. The guide column 5 can slide in the guide groove. The feeding pipe 9 is located above the connection position between the first arc groove 2 and an inclined groove 4. When weighing the raw materials, a receiving barrel 6 is located below the feeding pipe 9. At this time, the raw materials are continuously poured into the receiving barrel 6 through the feeding pipe 9. As the amount of raw materials increases, the receiving barrel 6 overcomes the elastic force of the quantitative spring 8 thereon and moves downward. At this time, the receiving barrel 6 slides downward in the inclined groove 4 through the guide column 5. Due to the guiding effect of the inclined groove 4, the receiving barrel 6 moves synchronously in the horizontal direction. The receiving barrel 6 drives multiple groups of transfer structures through the guide structure. The structure moves synchronously in the horizontal direction, so that multiple groups of transfer structures move around the axis of the base column 1, so that the gravity of the raw material itself can be used to realize the automatic movement of multiple groups of transfer structures. When the material receiving barrel 6 moves to the position of the second arc-shaped groove 3, the raw material received in the material receiving barrel 6 reaches the specified amount. At this time, the next material receiving barrel 6 moves to the bottom of the feeding pipe 9 and continues to receive the raw material. As the material receiving barrel 6 moves around the axis of the base column 1, the material receiving barrel 6 moves to the unloading position. At this time, the sealing plate 7 is opened, and the raw material in the material receiving barrel 6 can be discharged naturally, thereby realizing the quantitative weighing and transportation of the raw material. After the material receiving barrel 6 discharges the raw material, it continues to move with the guide structure, and the material receiving barrel 6 moves back to the first arc-shaped groove 2 through another inclined groove 4, thereby realizing the rotational movement of the material receiving barrel 6. Multiple material receiving barrels 6 move continuously and weigh the raw materials, thereby realizing the continuous and automatic weighing of the raw materials, and the movement process does not require power supply and control.

[0037] By utilizing the gravity of the raw materials themselves to achieve automatic movement of multiple groups of transfer structures, the demand for external power sources is reduced, the complexity of the system is simplified, and automatic operation can be achieved without electrical or personnel operations. At the same time, the improved degree of automation reduces the need for manual intervention and reduces errors caused by human factors. Since multiple receiving barrels 6 continuously move and weigh the raw materials, the raw material weighing work can be carried out continuously, which improves production efficiency. This continuous operation mode is very suitable for large-scale production and high-speed production lines. In summary, this rotary table design for weighing and quantifying food raw materials improves production efficiency and accuracy through automation and continuous operation, while also reducing production costs and maintenance difficulties. It is a very practical and efficient food raw material weighing solution.

[0038] Furthermore, the guide structure includes a support ring 10 rotatably mounted on the base column 1, the support ring 10 is coaxial with the base column 1, a plurality of telescopic rods 11 are arranged on the support ring 10, the telescopic rods 11 are vertical, and the output ends of the telescopic rods 11 are fixedly connected to the side wall of the receiving barrel 6, the quantitative spring 8 is mounted on the telescopic rods 11, and the quantitative spring 8 is connected to the support ring 10.

[0039] In detail, the support ring 10 is located below the material receiving barrel 6, and the support ring 10 supports and guides the material receiving barrel 6 through the telescopic rod 11, so that the direction of the material receiving barrel 6 remains unchanged when it moves, and the support ring 10 provides support for the quantitative spring 8, and the quantitative spring 8 provides an upward elastic thrust to the material receiving barrel 6. When the material receiving barrel 6 contains raw materials, the material receiving barrel 6 moves in the vertical direction. At this time, the material receiving barrel 6 will compress the telescopic rod 11, and the telescopic rod 11 maintains the support and guiding effect of the material receiving barrel 6.

[0040] Furthermore, a receiving hopper 12 is provided on the outer wall of the base column 1, a discharge pipe 13 is provided at the bottom of the base column 1, and an inclined channel is opened in the base column 1, and the receiving hopper 12 and the discharge pipe 13 are connected through the inclined channel.

[0041] In detail, the receiving hopper 12 is located below the second arc groove 3 area, and the receiving hopper 12 is located above the support ring 10. When the receiving barrel 6 moves to above the receiving hopper 12, the sealing plate 7 is opened, and the raw materials in the receiving barrel 6 can naturally fall into the receiving hopper 12 and be automatically discharged through the inclined channel and the discharge pipe 13, thereby realizing the discharge work, avoiding the receiving barrel 6 from directly discharging the raw materials onto the support ring 10, and avoiding the phenomenon that the raw materials cannot be discharged normally due to the obstruction of the bottom opening of the docking barrel 6 by the active interval when the telescopic rod 11 and the quantitative spring 8 rotate.

[0042] Furthermore, the material receiving cylinder 6 and the sealing plate 7 are connected via an elastic structure;

[0043] The elastic structure includes a fixed sleeve 14 fixed on the side wall of the material receiving barrel 6, a rotating column 15 is rotatably inserted on the fixed sleeve 14, the end of the rotating column 15 is fixedly connected to the sealing plate 7 through a connecting plate 16, and a first limiting plate 17 and a second limiting plate 18 are arranged between the rotating column 15 and the material receiving barrel 6, the first limiting plate 17 is fixed on the rotating column 15, and the second limiting plate 18 is fixed on the material receiving barrel 6, and the first limiting plate 17 and the second limiting plate 18 are fitted to each other;

[0044] The rotating column 15 is provided with a lever 19 , the base column 1 is provided with a baffle 20 used in conjunction with the lever 19 , and the fixing sleeve 14 and the connecting plate 16 are connected via a return spring 30 .

[0045] When the lever 19 is separated from the baffle plate 20, due to the action of the return spring 30, the sealing plate 7 is reset and re-connected with the bottom of the barrel 6 to seal, thereby realizing the automatic opening and closing of the sealing plate 7.

[0046] Furthermore, the bottom opening of the material receiving barrel 6 is inclined, the upper surface of the sealing plate 7 is inclined and used in conjunction with the bottom opening of the material receiving barrel 6, and the elastic structure is inclined.

[0047] In detail, the bottom opening of the material receiving barrel 6, the upper surface of the sealing plate 7 and the elastic structure are all inclined in the same direction. In this way, the force exerted by the raw material on the upper surface of the sealing plate 7 can be used to help the sealing plate 7 deviate from the material receiving barrel 6 and open the bottom opening of the material receiving barrel 6, thereby reducing the difficulty of opening the sealing plate 7 and the friction resistance between the material receiving barrel 6 and the sealing plate 7. The upper surface of the sealing plate 7 also guides the raw material. By tilting the elastic structure, it is convenient for the upper surface of the sealing plate 7 to remain in contact with the bottom opening of the material receiving barrel 6 when the sealing plate 7 moves, so that the gap between the bottom of the material receiving barrel 6 and the sealing plate 7 is generated from one side of the material receiving barrel 6 and gradually increases, and the raw material is discharged through the gap in the same way, avoiding the situation where when the sealing plate 7 is directly rotated horizontally, there will be gaps between the sealing plate 7 and the material receiving barrel 6 on all sides, causing the raw material to be discharged in all directions.

[0048] Furthermore, each of the material receiving barrels 6 is provided with a transition groove plate 21 , and the transition groove plate 21 is located on one side of the material receiving barrel 6 in the circumferential motion direction around the base column 1 .

[0049] In detail, the transition groove plate 21 is located between two adjacent material receiving barrels 6. When one material receiving barrel 6 completes receiving the material, as the material receiving barrel 6 moves, the transition groove plate 21 moves synchronously and receives the raw materials that fall between the two adjacent material receiving barrels 6, so that the raw materials fall into the next material receiving barrel 6, avoiding the spillage and waste of raw materials.

[0050] Furthermore, the transition slot plate 21 is rotatably mounted on the material receiving barrel 6, and the transition slot plate 21 and the material receiving barrel 6 are connected by a spring piece 22. An arc track 23 is provided on the material receiving barrel 6, and a moving column 24 is slidably provided in the arc track 23. The sliding axis of the moving column 24 coincides with the rotation axis of the transition slot plate 21.

[0051] In detail, the arc track 23 and the movable column 24 can limit the position of the transition groove plate 21 on the material receiving barrel 6, and the spring piece 22 provides an elastic thrust to the transition groove plate 21, so that in the natural state, the transition groove plate 21 receives the raw materials falling between two adjacent material receiving barrels 6. When the material receiving barrel 6 moves from the second arc groove 3 into the first arc groove 2, the material receiving barrel 6 moves upward. At this time, in order to avoid the transition groove plate 21 from hindering the movement of the material receiving barrel 6, it is necessary to enable the transition groove plate 21 to rotate on the material receiving barrel 6, that is, the material receiving barrel 6 during the upward movement will push the transition groove plate 21 on the material receiving barrel 6 behind it, so that the transition groove plate 21 rotates on the corresponding material receiving barrel 6 to achieve the avoidance effect.

[0052] Furthermore, an adjustment ring 25 is vertically slidably provided on the outer wall of the base column 1, and the support ring 10 is rotatably mounted on the adjustment ring 25. A plurality of threaded rods 26 are inserted into the adjustment ring 25, and the threaded rods 26 are threadedly connected to the adjustment ring 25. A transmission wheel 27 is provided on the threaded rod 26, and a transmission ring 28 is transmitted between the plurality of transmission wheels 27. The transmission ring 28 is rotatably mounted on the base column 1, and a motor 29 for transmitting power to a transmission wheel 27 is provided on the base column 1.

[0053] In detail, the motor 29 can drive multiple transmission wheels 27 to rotate synchronously through the transmission ring 28, thereby driving multiple threaded rods 26 to rotate synchronously. Since the threaded rod 26 is threadedly connected to the adjustment ring 25, the threaded rod 26 pushes the adjustment ring 25 to move in the vertical direction. At this time, the adjustment ring 25 pushes the support ring 10 to move synchronously in the vertical direction, thereby adjusting the elastic strength of the quantitative spring 8, which is convenient for adjusting the symmetrical weight.

[0054] The above is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention. It should be pointed out that for ordinary technicians in this technical field, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the technical principles of the present invention. These improvements and modifications should also be regarded as the scope of protection of the present invention.
