DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0017] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0018] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, the present invention provides a seasoning and batching device with intelligent discharging, comprising a frame 1, on which a liquid seasoning area 2 for storing liquid seasonings and a solid seasoning area 3 for storing solid seasonings are sequentially arranged in a vertical direction, a detection device 4 is arranged in both the liquid seasoning area 2 and the solid seasoning area 3, a sliding mechanism 5 connected to the frame 1 is arranged in the liquid seasoning area 2, and the sliding mechanism 5 is located below the liquid seasoning area 2, a sweeping mechanism 6 is arranged on the sliding mechanism 5, and a control center is arranged on the outer wall of the frame 1, the control center is used to input recipes, and when the detection device 4 detects that a container for taking seasonings is taking seasonings, the control center controls the liquid seasoning area 2 and the solid seasoning area 3 to automatically release corresponding seasonings.

[0019] The sliding mechanism 5 is used to place the container for taking materials and move the container horizontally to take materials. The sweeping mechanism 6 moves synchronously with the sliding mechanism 5 and sweeps and collects the adhering and dripping seasoning after the seasoning is released in the liquid seasoning area 2.

[0020] In actual application of the present application, a recipe is input into the control center to obtain the corresponding required seasoning types and weights, and then the seasoning containers are placed in the liquid seasoning area 2 and the solid seasoning area 3 in sequence to take the corresponding seasonings.

[0021] When taking liquid seasoning, the container is placed on the sliding mechanism 5, and the sliding mechanism 5 controls the container to move to the bottom of the corresponding seasoning in the liquid seasoning area 2. Then the corresponding seasoning in the liquid seasoning area 2 is released into the container, and the sliding mechanism 5 moves to the release position of the next seasoning. During the movement, the sweeping mechanism 6 moves synchronously with the sliding mechanism 5, so as to sweep and collect the release point of the seasoning in the liquid seasoning area 2, avoiding the problem of condensation of the liquid seasoning affecting health and the problem of blockage when the seasoning is discharged.

[0022] The detection device 4 detects the position of the container on the sliding mechanism 5, and is used to control the sliding mechanism 5 to drive the container to the specified seasoning to receive the seasoning. In this embodiment, the detection device 4 is a prior art, for example, information can be collected by multiple cameras installed at the positions of multiple seasonings.

[0023] In this embodiment, the solid seasoning area 3 is a prior art. For example, the solid seasoning area 3 includes a plurality of solid seasoning tanks arranged along a horizontal straight line. The solid seasoning tanks control the release of solid seasonings through electromagnetic valves, etc., and a moving mechanism is also provided to drive the container to move to the bottom of the corresponding solid seasoning tank to receive the seasoning. The position of the container is detected by the detection device 4, or other technical solutions are also possible, as long as the solid seasoning can be taken.

[0024] In this embodiment, the control center is a prior art, which can input recipes and control the solid seasoning area 3 and the liquid seasoning area 2 to release corresponding seasonings, and at the same time receive the information detected by the detection device 4 to control the start and stop of the sliding mechanism 5. This is a prior art and will not be elaborated in detail.

[0025] The liquid seasoning area 2 includes a mounting frame 201 arranged on the frame 1, and a plurality of liquid seasoning tanks 202 are arranged on the mounting frame 201 at equal intervals in the horizontal direction. A valve for controlling the discharge is provided at the discharge port at the bottom of each liquid seasoning tank 202. One of the detection devices 4 is arranged on the mounting frame 201 at a position above the sliding mechanism 5, and is used to detect whether there is a container for taking seasoning passing under each liquid seasoning tank 202.

[0026] Different liquid seasonings are packed in different liquid seasoning tanks 202, and when the detection device 4 detects that a container passes under the liquid seasoning tank 202, the liquid seasoning is released by controlling the valve.

[0027] The sliding mechanism 5 includes a support plate 501 arranged on the frame 1 and parallel to the horizontal plane, a linear motion device 502 is arranged on the support plate 501, a fixed platform 503 is arranged on the linear motion device 502, two arc-shaped clamping plates 504 are slidably connected to the fixed platform 503, push rods 507 are arranged on the opposite sides of the two arc-shaped clamping plates 504, and the end of the push rod 507 away from the arc-shaped clamping plate 504 is connected to the telescopic device 505, and the telescopic device 505 is embedded in the outer wall of the fixed platform 503, and a positioning protrusion 506 for detection by the detection device 4 is arranged on the fixed platform 503, and when the detection device 4 detects the positioning protrusion 506, the linear motion device 502 stops moving.

[0028] The support plate 501 provides support and installation space for the linear motion device 502, and the container is placed between the two arc-shaped clamping plates 504. Then, the two telescopic devices 505 simultaneously drive the two push rods 507 to move toward each other, so that the two arc-shaped clamping plates 504 also move toward each other until they are in contact with the outer wall of the container at the same time. Then, the telescopic device 505 stops working, and the container is confined between the two arc-shaped clamping plates 504 and will not move in the horizontal direction, so that it can stably receive the seasoning.

[0029] The positioning protrusion 506 is used to provide positioning information for the detection device 4. When the detection device 4 detects the positioning protrusion 506, it represents that the container moves to the bottom of the liquid seasoning tank 202. At this time, the linear motion device 502 stops moving, and the liquid seasoning tank 202 releases the seasoning into the container through the valve. After the seasoning is released, the valve is closed, and the linear motion device 502 moves again. The sweeping mechanism 6 moves synchronously with the linear motion device 502. In the process of the container moving away from the bottom of the liquid seasoning tank 202, the sweeping mechanism 6 cleans and collects the residual seasoning at the discharge port of the liquid seasoning tank 202, thereby avoiding the condensation of the liquid seasoning affecting health and the problem of blockage when the seasoning is discharged.

[0030] In this embodiment, the telescopic device 505 is a conventional technology, such as an electric push rod.

[0031] The sweeping mechanism 6 includes a vertical plate 601 disposed on the fixed platform 503 , a flexible contact component 602 is disposed on the vertical plate 601 , and a collecting component 603 connected to the vertical plate 601 is disposed at the bottom of the flexible contact component 602 .

[0032] The flexible contact component 602 is used to wipe off the seasoning dropped from the outlet of the liquid seasoning tank 202 after the seasoning is released, and the collection component 603 collects the leaked seasoning.

[0033] In the process of the container moving to the next liquid seasoning tank 202 after receiving the seasoning, since the opening of the container is larger than the discharge port of the liquid seasoning tank 202, when the container moves to the edge of the discharge port of the liquid seasoning tank 202 and corresponds to the opening of the container, the vertical plate 601 follows the fixed platform 503 and moves synchronously until the flexible contact component 602 contacts the discharge port of the liquid seasoning tank 202, thereby preventing the residual seasoning at the discharge port of the liquid seasoning tank 202 from falling to the outside and causing the device to become dirty, thereby ensuring the cleanliness and hygiene of the device.

[0034] When the flexible contact component 602 contacts the discharge port of the liquid seasoning tank 202, the collecting component 603 is activated to collect the residual seasoning wiped off after the flexible contact component 602 contacts, so that the wiped and collected seasoning is kept as far away from the surface of the flexible contact component 602 as possible, ensuring the cleanliness of the surface of the flexible contact component 602.

[0035] The flexible contact component 602 includes a horizontal plate 604 horizontally arranged on the top of the vertical plate 601, a wiping sponge 605 is arranged on the horizontal plate 604, a bottom groove 606 is opened on the horizontal plate 604, and the collecting component 603 is arranged at the bottom of the horizontal plate 604 and contacts the wiping sponge 605 through the bottom groove 606.

[0036] When the flexible contact component 602 contacts the discharge port of the liquid seasoning tank 202, the wiping sponge 605 contacts the discharge port of the liquid seasoning tank 202, and wipes off the residual seasoning at the discharge port of the liquid seasoning tank 202 while following the movement of the fixed platform 503, and then the collecting component 603 contacts the bottom of the wiping sponge 605 for collection.

[0037] The wiping sponge 605 includes a square frame 607 detachably mounted on the horizontal plate 604, a sponge 608 in contact with the collecting assembly 603 is arranged in the square frame 607, two opposite side walls of the square frame 607 are provided with avoidance grooves 609 for the discharge port of the liquid seasoning tank 202 to pass through, and each avoidance groove 609 is rotatably connected to a baffle 610 matching the avoidance groove 609 through a torsion spring.

[0038] Before being wiped by the sponge 608, the liquid seasoning tank 202 first contacts the baffle 610 on the square frame 607 and squeezes the baffle 610 to rotate, so that the discharge port of the liquid seasoning tank 202 enters the square frame 607 and contacts the sponge 608. The residual seasoning at the discharge port of the liquid seasoning tank 202 is wiped clean by the relative displacement between the sponge 608 and the liquid seasoning tank 202. The cooperation between the inner side wall of the square frame 607 and the baffle 610 can limit the splashing of the residual seasoning at the discharge port of the liquid seasoning tank 202 when being wiped by the sponge 608.

[0039] After the sponge 608 wipes off the seasoning for a period of time, the old square frame 607 and sponge 608 can be disassembled, and a new square frame 607 and sponge 608 can be installed to ensure hygiene and health.

[0040] A first slope 617 is provided on the opposite side of the two baffles 610, and a second slope 618 connected to the inner wall of the square frame 607 is provided at the inner bottom of each avoidance groove 609, and the baffle 610 is rotatably connected to the second slope 618, and the distance between the baffle 610 and the second slope 618 is greater than zero.

[0041] The discharge port of the liquid seasoning tank 202 will first contact the first inclined surface 617 in the process of entering the interior of the square frame 607, and the seasoning dripping onto the baffle 610 will be guided by the first inclined surface 617, so that the remaining seasoning will drip onto the second inclined surface 618 through the first inclined surface 617, and slide down through the second inclined surface 618 to contact the sponge 608 and be absorbed, thereby preventing the liquid seasoning from dripping onto the device and causing the device to become dirty.

[0042] The collecting assembly 603 includes a supporting plate 611 fixed on one side of the vertical plate 601, a hollow rod 612 is arranged on the top of the supporting plate 611, a bottom plate 613 adapted to the bottom groove 606 is arranged on the top of the hollow rod 612, and one side of the bottom plate 613 is connected to the vertical plate 601, a plurality of collecting holes 614 connected to the inside of the hollow rod 612 are provided on the upper surface of the bottom plate 613, the other end of the hollow rod 612 is connected to a pump body, and the pump body is connected to a collecting box 616 detachably connected to the bottom plate 613 through a pipeline.

[0043] When collecting residual seasoning, the pump body is started for suction, so that negative pressure suction is generated at the multiple collection holes 614, and because the bottom plate 613 closes the bottom groove 606, the inside of the sponge 608 also has negative pressure suction, so that the residual seasoning wiped and absorbed by the sponge 608 is absorbed into the inside of the sponge 608 as much as possible. If there is too much residual seasoning, the seasoning enters the hollow rod 612 through the multiple collection holes 614, and enters the collection box 616 through the pump body for collection.

[0044] The above embodiments are only exemplary embodiments of the present application and are not intended to limit the present application. The protection scope of the present application is defined by the claims. Those skilled in the art may make various modifications or equivalent substitutions to the present application within the essence and protection scope of the present application, and such modifications or equivalent substitutions shall also be deemed to fall within the protection scope of the present application.
