[0031] like Figure 1 As shown, this embodiment provides a scraper type combination weigher, including a machine base 1, a step 11 is provided in the middle position of the machine base 1, a material receiving trough 12 is provided around the edge of the step 11, a material receiving port 13 is provided on the material receiving trough 12, a material collecting device 2 is provided on the material receiving port 13, and the material collecting device 2 is used for collecting and packaging. A material receiving rotating device 3 is provided on the step 11, and the material receiving rotating device 3 includes a rotating support arm 31, a driving mechanism 32 and a scraper 33, and the scraper 33 is provided on the rotating support arm 31. At one end, the driving mechanism 32 is installed at the other end of the rotating support arm 31, and the scraper 33 is placed in the receiving trough 12. The driving mechanism 32 allows the rotating support arm 31 to rotate, so that the scraper 33 scrapes back and forth in the receiving trough 12. The scraper 33 scrapes to the receiving port 13 and is collected by the collecting device 2. The sticky material is put into the receiving trough 12 after being weighed, and then collected to the collecting device 2 by the scraper 33. The sticky material will not stick to the inner wall surface of the packaging equipment, the conveyor belt and other positions, thereby improving the collection efficiency.

[0032] like Figure 2As shown, there are two receiving troughs 12, and the shape of the two receiving troughs 12 is a semicircular structure. The two receiving troughs 12 are mirror-imaged and located on the edge of the step 11. The receiving port 13 is located at the diagonal position of the step 11. The two scrapers 33 scrape back and forth synchronously in their respective receiving troughs 12, so that two-way collection can be achieved and the collection efficiency is improved.

[0033] like Figure 5-6 As shown, the rotating support arm 31 includes a front arm 311 and a rear arm 312. A slider 313 is fixed on the front arm 311, and a through hole is provided on the slider 313. The rear arm 312 is inserted into the through hole and can be movably extended and retracted. The shape of the material receiving trough 12 is close to a semicircular shape, and the distance from the axis will be different. Therefore, the telescopic structure can be extended and retracted within a certain range to solve such problems.

[0034] like Figure 7 As shown, the driving mechanism 32 includes a pneumatic rod 321, a rack 322 and a gear 323. The gear 323 is installed on the rotating support arm 31. The teeth on the rack 322 are located on both sides and mesh with the gears 323 on both sides. The pneumatic rod 321 is installed on one side of the rack 322 and pushes or retracts the rack 322 forward or backward, which can reduce space and effectively allow the material collecting rotating device 3 to rotate synchronously.

[0035] Furthermore, buffer portions 34 are provided at both ends of the rack 322 , and the buffer portions 34 can limit the moving distance of the rack 322 to prevent the rack 322 from being damaged by collision.

[0036] Furthermore, guide wheels 331 are provided on both sides of the scraper 33. The guide wheels 331 can prevent the scraper 33 from colliding with the side of the material receiving trough 12, making the movement smoother.

[0037] like Figure 4 As shown, a hopper frame 4 is provided at the upper part of the material receiving trough 12, and a plurality of weighing hopper mechanisms 5 are provided on the periphery of the hopper frame 4. The weighing hopper mechanism 5 includes an upper storage hopper 51 for storing materials and a tipping hopper scale 52 for weighing. The storage hopper 51 for storing materials is opened and the materials fall into the tipping hopper scale 52 for weighing. The multi-head combination weigher selects a certain number of hoppers from the weighing tipping hoppers according to the set target weight value, arranges and combines them, and selects the hopper closest to the target weight value through program control algorithm calculation to tip over, and drops the materials into the material receiving trough 12 for scraping and centralized collection.

[0038] like Figure 8-9As shown, the collecting device 2 includes a first pushing module 21, a blocking module 22, a second pushing module 23, a scraping module 24 and a poke component 25. The first pushing module 21 is located in the receiving port 13 and moves forward and backward. The first pushing module 21 is used to push the material onto the second pushing module 23. The blocking module 22 moves left and right on the first pushing module 21. The collecting device 2 is provided with a collecting port 201. The second pushing module 23 moves left and right on the collecting port 201. The scraping module 24 is located left and right on the second pushing module 23. Move to allow the material to be sent to the collection port 201. The poking component 25 is located at the upper position of the collection port 201 and moves up and down toward the collection port 201. When the material is scraped to the first pushing module 21 by the scraper 33, the first pushing module 21 is pushed to the front position of the blocking module 22. The blocking module 22 moves to the right, and the first pushing module 21 returns to its position backward. The material is blocked by the blocking module 22 and retained on the second pushing module 23. The material is pushed into the collection port 201 through the scraping module 24. When sticking occurs, the poking component 25 presses the material out of the collection port 201.

[0039] like Figure 2-3 As shown, a feeding mechanism 6 is provided on the step 11, and a feeding trough 61 corresponding to the hopper frame 4 is provided on the feeding mechanism 6. The feeding troughs 61 are arranged around the axis position of the feeding mechanism 6, and a feeding variable pitch screw 62 is provided in the feeding trough 61. A plurality of first motors 63 are provided in the feeding mechanism 6, and the first motor 63 drives the feeding variable pitch screw 62 to rotate. A conical cover 64 is provided between the feeding troughs 61 and the feeding troughs 61. An upper cover 7 is provided on the feeding mechanism 6, and a swinging Rod 71, a second motor 73 is provided in the upper cover 7, the second motor is connected to the swing rod 71 and drives the swing rod 71 to rotate, and an outer frame 72 is provided on the periphery of the upper cover 7. When items are placed on the upper cover 7, the swing rod 71 can evenly distribute the materials, and the outer frame 72 can prevent the materials from overflowing. The materials are evenly distributed into the feeding trough 61 and are transported to the storage hopper 51 through the rotation of the feeding variable pitch screw 62. The conical cover 64 can allow the materials to fall into the feeding troughs 61 on both sides. This structure can reduce the difficulty of distribution when distributing materials.

[0040] In the prior art, sticky materials are easily adhered to the inner wall surface, conveyor belt and other positions of the packaging equipment, affecting the packaging. Therefore, a scraper-type combination scale is provided. The weighing hopper mechanism 5 puts the sticky materials into the receiving trough 12. The receiving trough 12 is provided with two, and the receiving port 13 is located at the diagonal position of the step 11. The scraper 33 on the receiving rotating device 3 scrapes from the first receiving port 13 along the receiving trough 12 to the second receiving port 13 for collection through the collecting device 2. The material continues to fall, and the scraper 33 scrapes from the second receiving port 13 to the first receiving port 13 for collection through the diagonal collecting device 2. In this way, sticky materials will not stick to the inner wall surface, conveyor belt and other positions of the packaging equipment, thereby improving the collection efficiency.

[0041] The pneumatic rod 321 pushes the rack 322 forward, and the gears 323 on both sides rotate relative to each other to make the rotating arm 31 rotate from the back to the front, and the scraper 33 scrapes along the inside of the receiving chute 12.

[0042] The above embodiments are preferred implementations of the present invention, but the implementations of the present invention are not limited thereto.
