Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of glutinous rice balls packaging, in particular to a quick-frozen glutinous rice balls plating device. Background Art

[0002] The production of handmade glutinous rice balls begins with the mixing of the glutinous rice ball fillings and the initial shaping of the fillings, which are then kneaded and shaped by workers. The dumplings are then sent to cold storage for freezing via trays, and then uniformly packaged by machines.

[0003] There is a tray inside the boxed glutinous rice balls. The frozen glutinous rice balls are placed in the groove of the tray and fixed. There will be no collision between adjacent glutinous rice balls, which can play a good protective role. The existing packaging equipment transfers the glutinous rice balls to the rotary conveyor ring, which rotates to transfer the glutinous rice balls to the tray. During the rotation of the rotary conveyor ring, the track arc plate prevents the glutinous rice balls from falling before entering the tray.

[0004] Although the packaging equipment can complete the work of arranging the dishes, friction is easy to occur between the glutinous rice balls and the track arc plate, which generates heat. Coupled with the high ambient temperature, the local surface of the glutinous rice balls tends to melt (or slightly melt). After the glutinous rice balls fall into the tray, the local surface of the glutinous rice balls contacts the groove of the tray. After being frozen again, they are easy to stick to the tray, which is inconvenient for users to take out the glutinous rice balls from the tray after purchase, affecting the user experience. For example, when putting boxed glutinous rice balls into hot water, the tray must be shaken and shaken vigorously so that the glutinous rice balls will fall off. After the glutinous rice balls fall off, they hit the hot water and cause the hot water to splash, which brings inconvenience to users. However, not setting up track arc plates cannot prevent the glutinous rice balls from falling before entering the tray, which brings troubles to enterprises. Summary of the invention

[0005] In view of the above situation, the present invention provides a device for arranging quick-frozen glutinous rice balls, aiming to solve the technical problem that although the existing packaging equipment can complete the arranging work, friction is easily generated between the glutinous rice balls and the track arc plate, and the friction generates heat. Coupled with the high ambient temperature, the local surface layer of the glutinous rice balls tends to melt (or slightly melt). After the glutinous rice balls fall into the material tray, the local surface layer of the glutinous rice balls contacts the groove of the material tray. After being frozen again, they are easy to stick to the material tray, making it inconvenient for users to take out the glutinous rice balls from the material tray after purchase, affecting the user's technical experience.

[0052] In the following, only some exemplary embodiments are briefly described. As those skilled in the art can realize, the described embodiments can be modified in various different ways without departing from the spirit or scope of the embodiments of the present invention.

Therefore, they cannot be understood as limitations on the embodiments of the present invention.

[0054] In addition, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be understood as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly indicating the number of the indicated technical features. Thus, a feature defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of the features. In the description of the embodiments of the present invention, the meaning of "plurality" is two or more, unless otherwise clearly and specifically defined.

[0055] In the embodiments of the present invention, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, the terms "installed", "connected", "connected", "fixed" and the like should be understood in a broad sense, for example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral one; it can be directly connected, or indirectly connected through an intermediate medium, it can be the internal connection of two elements or the interaction relationship between two elements. For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in the embodiments of the present invention can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0056] The embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0057] See also Figure 1~Figure 4 The present embodiment provides a quick-frozen glutinous rice balls arrangement device, comprising a material guiding mechanism 1, a rotating member 2, a material tray conveying mechanism 3 and an opening and closing mechanism 4.

[0058] The material guiding mechanism 1 is used to guide the glutinous rice balls into the storage groove 21 of the rotating member 2 .

[0059] The rotating member 2 can rotate on its own, and a plurality of storage grooves 21 are evenly distributed on the side wall of the rotating member 2, and the diameter of the storage grooves 21 is larger than the diameter of the glutinous rice balls; the rotating member 2 is arranged between the material guiding mechanism 1 and the material tray conveying mechanism 3, and is used to transfer the glutinous rice balls in the storage grooves 21 to the material tray 31.

[0060] The material tray conveying mechanism 3 is used to convey the material tray 31 to the bottom of the rotating member 2. The material tray 31 has a plurality of grooves (not shown in the figure) for placing the glutinous rice balls.

[0061] The opening and closing mechanism 4 is arranged at the storage slot 21, and the opening and closing mechanism 4 can be opened or closed so that the glutinous rice balls can enter and exit the storage slot 21 or remain in the storage slot 21. When the opening and closing mechanism 4 is opened, the glutinous rice balls can pass through the opening and closing mechanism 4 to enter and exit the storage slot 21, and when the opening and closing mechanism 4 is closed, the glutinous rice balls cannot pass through the opening and closing mechanism 4.

[0062] When a storage slot 21 rotates clockwise with the rotating member 2 ( Figure 1 When the rotating member 2 rotates to the right below the material guide mechanism 1 (in the clockwise and counterclockwise directions as shown), the opening and closing mechanism 4 opens, and the glutinous rice balls pass through the opening and closing mechanism 4 and enter the storage slot 21. Then, the rotating member 2 continues to rotate clockwise and the opening and closing mechanism 4 closes. When the storage slot 21 moves to the right above a groove of the material tray 31, the opening and closing mechanism 4 opens, and the glutinous rice balls pass through the opening and closing mechanism 4 and leave the storage slot 21 and fall into the groove. In this way, the glutinous rice balls are subjected to less friction in the process of being transferred to the material tray 31 as the rotating member 2 rotates clockwise in the storage slot 21, and the following problems of the existing packaging equipment do not exist: the local surface layer of the glutinous rice balls tends to melt easily (or melts slightly). After the glutinous rice balls fall into the material tray 31, the local surface layer of the glutinous rice balls contacts the groove of the material tray 31. After being frozen again, it is easy to stick to the material tray 31, which is inconvenient for users to take out the glutinous rice balls from the material tray 31 after purchase, affecting the user's experience.

[0063] In this embodiment, the rotating member 2 is annular or cylindrical, and a blowing pipe with an outlet facing downward is provided on the inner side of the rotating member 2. The outlet of the blowing pipe is in sliding contact with the inner side of the rotating member 2 and can be intermittently connected with the storage groove 21. The blowing pipe is used to blow the glutinous rice balls in the storage groove 21 downward.

[0064] The opening and closing mechanism 4 includes an arc bar 41; the arc bar 41 is arc-shaped, spans the storage slot 21 like a bridge, and is slidably connected to the outer wall of the rotating member 2; there are two arc bars 41, and the two arc bars 41 can approach or move away from each other. After the two arc bars 41 approach each other, the opening and closing mechanism 4 is closed, and the two arc bars 41 can block the movement of the glutinous rice balls; after the two arc bars 41 move away from each other, the opening and closing mechanism 4 is opened, and the glutinous rice balls can pass through between the two arc bars 41.

[0065] The arc strip 41 is slidably connected to the outer wall of the rotating member 2 in the following manner: a slide groove 22 is provided on the outer wall of the rotating member 2 , a slider 42 is slidably connected in the slide groove 22 , and one end of the arc strip 41 is connected to the slider 42 .

[0066] The opening and closing mechanism 4 further includes a limiting assembly, which is used to limit the relative movement of the two arc strips 41 after the two arc strips 41 move away from each other, so as to facilitate the rice balls to enter and exit the storage slot 21. In this embodiment, the limiting assembly includes a guide block 43, a limiting pin 44 and a return spring 45.

[0067] The guide block 43 is disposed in the rotating member 2 and is used to guide the movement of the limiting pin 44 .

[0068] The limiting pin 44 is slidably connected to the guide block 43 , and one end of the limiting pin 44 can contact the slider 42 .

[0069] The return spring 45 is sleeved on the limit pin 44 and is used to make one end of the limit pin 44 contact the slider 42 so as to limit the movement of the slider 42 and the arc bar 41 by means of the friction force between the limit pin 44 and the slider 42 .

[0070] After applying a force to the two arc bars 41 to move the two arc bars 41 away from each other, the two sliders 42 also move away from each other. After removing the force applied to the two arc bars 41, under the action of the restoring force of the restoring spring 45, the movement of the slider 42 and the arc bar 41 is limited by the friction between the limit pin 44 and the slider 42, so that the opening and closing mechanism 4 remains in an open state, so that the glutinous rice balls can pass between the two arc bars 41 to enter and exit the storage slot 21. After the glutinous rice balls pass between the two arc bars 41 to enter the storage slot 21, corresponding measures can be taken to bring the two arc bars 41 closer again, so that the opening and closing mechanism 4 is automatically closed, thereby preventing the glutinous rice balls from falling.

[0071] Furthermore, in order to facilitate the automatic reapproximation of the two arc strips 41 after the glutinous rice balls enter the storage groove 21, the opening and closing mechanism 4 also includes an adjusting spring (tension spring, not shown in the figure), a first connecting rod 46 and a second connecting rod 47.

[0072] The adjusting spring is located between the two sliders 42, and the two ends of the adjusting spring can be connected to a slider 42 respectively, so that the two arc strips 41 can approach each other. The reset force of the adjusting spring is less than the friction between the limit pin 44 and the slider 42 under the reset force of the reset spring 45.

[0073] The first connecting rod 46 is longitudinally slidably connected to the rotating member 2 , and one end of the first connecting rod 46 can extend into the storage slot 21 .

[0074] The second connecting rod 47 is vertically connected to the first connecting rod 46, and one end of the second connecting rod 47 is movably connected to the limit pin 44, so that the second connecting rod 47 can rotate and slide relative to the limit pin 44. When the glutinous rice balls enter the storage slot 21, the first connecting rod 46 is hit by the glutinous rice balls and drives the second connecting rod 47 to move downward, and the second connecting rod 47 drives the limit pin 44 to move and separate from the slider 42, and then under the action of the return force of the adjustment spring, the two sliders 42 and the two arc bars 41 can approach each other.

[0075] Understandably, see Figure 1 In the process that the glutinous rice balls rotate clockwise with the rotating member 2, when the glutinous rice balls are located at the lower right side of the rotating member 2, the glutinous rice balls are separated from the first connecting rod 46 under the influence of their own weight, and the first connecting rod 46, the second connecting rod 47 and the limit pin 44 are reset under the action of the reset spring 45, and the limit pin 44 contacts the slider 42 again, so that the two arc strips 41 can maintain the current state to prevent the glutinous rice balls from falling; when the glutinous rice balls are located at the lower side of the rotating member 2, the blowing pipe works to blow the glutinous rice balls in the storage groove 21, and the glutinous rice balls push the two arc strips 41 away under the action of the airflow and leave the storage groove 21.

[0076] The material guiding mechanism 1 comprises a lower hopper 11 , the lower end of which is an outlet; the glutinous rice balls can be arranged longitudinally one by one in the outlet 111 of the lower hopper, and the outlet 111 of the lower hopper can be aligned with the storage groove 21 so that each glutinous rice ball can enter the corresponding storage groove 21 .

[0077] The inner wall of the lower hopper 11 is wavy, so that when the glutinous rice balls roll downward along the inner wall of the lower hopper 11, in addition to the collision between the glutinous rice balls, the glutinous rice balls can also collide with the inner wall of the lower hopper 11 multiple times, so as to separate a small amount of glutinous rice balls that are stuck together during freezing, which is beneficial for the glutinous rice balls to be arranged longitudinally one by one in the outlet 111 of the lower hopper.

[0078] In order to facilitate the application of force to the two arc bars 41 so that the two arc bars 41 are separated from each other, the angle between the two arc bars 41 is an acute angle, and the two arc bars 41 form a structure with a narrow end 411 and a wide end 412; at the same time, the material guiding mechanism 1 also includes a telescopic tube 12, which is longitudinally slidably sleeved on the outlet 111 of the lower hopper, and the lower end of the telescopic tube 12 can slide in contact with the outer wall of the rotating member 2. In this way, during the clockwise rotation of the rotating member 2, the lower end of the telescopic tube 12 can slide in contact with the narrow end 411 and push the two arc bars 41 away from each other, and then the rice balls can pass downward from between the two arc bars 41 and fall into the storage groove 21.

[0079] Furthermore, the material guiding mechanism 1 further includes a first movable rod 13 and a second movable rod 14 .

[0080] The first movable rod 13 slides through the side wall of the outlet 111 of the lower hopper, and the first movable rod 13 can slide in the radial direction of the outlet 111 of the lower hopper. In this way, during the clockwise rotation of the rotating member 2, although the lower end of the telescopic tube 12 will contact and rub against the rotating member 2, when the first movable rod 13 protrudes from the inner side of the outlet 111 of the lower hopper, the first movable rod 13 can block the falling of the glutinous rice balls, so that during the process of the glutinous rice balls being transferred to the rotating member 2, the glutinous rice balls do not contact and rub against the outer wall of the rotating member 2, thereby further solving the problems pointed out in the above-mentioned background technology.

[0081] The second movable rod 14 slides through the side wall of the outlet 111 of the lower hopper, and the second movable rod 14 can slide in the radial direction of the outlet 111 of the lower hopper, and the movement directions of the second movable rod 14 and the first movable rod 13 are opposite; the second movable rod 14 is located above the first movable rod 13, and the vertical distance between the second movable rod 14 and the first movable rod 13 is greater than the diameter of the glutinous rice balls. When the first movable rod 13 protrudes from the inner side of the outlet 111 of the lower hopper, the second movable rod 14 does not protrude from the inner side of the outlet 111 of the lower hopper. At this time, the glutinous rice balls touch each other one by one, and the glutinous rice balls at the bottom are blocked by the first movable rod 13 and cannot be discharged; when the first movable rod 13 does not protrude from the inner side of the outlet 111 of the lower hopper, the second movable rod 14 protrudes from the inner side of the outlet 111 of the lower hopper. At this time, the glutinous rice balls at the bottom can be discharged downward, and other glutinous rice balls above are blocked by the second movable rod 14; that is, by setting the first movable rod 13 and the second movable rod 14, it is possible to avoid contact and friction between the glutinous rice balls and the outer wall of the rotating member 2 during the process of transferring the glutinous rice balls to the rotating member 2, and ensure that the glutinous rice balls are discharged from the outlet 111 of the lower hopper in an orderly manner.

[0082] In order to facilitate the reverse movement of the first movable rod 13 and the second movable rod 13 , the material guiding mechanism 1 further includes a first fixed block 15 , a second fixed block 16 , a compression spring 17 , a driving rod 18 , a first transmission rod 191 and a second transmission rod 192 .

[0083] The first fixing block 15 is disposed on the outer wall of the outlet 111 of the lower hopper.

[0084] The second fixing block 16 is disposed on the inner wall of the telescopic tube 12 and is located below the first fixing block 15 .

[0085] One end of the compression spring 17 is connected to the first fixing block 15 , and the other end is connected to the second fixing block 16 . The restoring force of the compression spring 17 is used to move the telescopic tube 12 downward.

[0086] The driving rod 18 slides longitudinally through the first fixing block 15 and the second fixing block 16 ; the lower end of the driving rod 18 contacts the telescopic tube 12 , and the telescopic tube 12 can drive the driving rod 18 to move upward.

[0087] One end of the first transmission rod 191 is hinged to the lower part of the driving rod 18 , and the other end is hinged to the first movable rod 13 .

[0088] One end of the second transmission rod 192 is hinged to the upper portion of the driving rod 18 , and the other end is hinged to the second movable rod 14 .

[0089] During the clockwise rotation of the rotating member 2, the lower end of the telescopic tube 12 can move to the arc strip 41 and slide in contact with the narrow end 411 to push the two arc strips 41 away from each other through the generated component force; during the process in which the lower end of the telescopic tube 12 slides in contact with the narrow end 411 to push the two arc strips 41 away from each other, the telescopic tube 12 moves upward due to the reaction force; when the telescopic tube 12 moves upward, it will drive the driving rod 18 to move upward, so that the first movable rod 13 in the outlet 111 of the lower hopper retracts and the second movable rod 14 is exposed, so that the glutinous rice balls at the bottom of the outlet 111 of the lower hopper can pass downward from between the two arc strips 41 and fall into the corresponding storage groove 21.

[0090] Finally, it should be noted that the above are only preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. For those skilled in the art, the present invention may have various modifications and variations. In the absence of conflicts, the embodiments of the present application and the features in the embodiments may be arbitrarily combined with each other. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present invention shall be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
