Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the field of production and manufacturing, and in particular to a food packaging device. Background Art
[0002] In the field of manufacturing, it is often necessary to put finished products into packaging boxes. In order not to affect the progress of production, it is necessary to continuously put the finished products into packaging boxes so that the packaging process can proceed continuously and normally.
[0003] Most of the existing packaging methods are to put the products into the packaging boxes manually. However, in order to increase the shipment volume of the products, the operators often work overtime and do not get timely rest, which affects the production efficiency. In addition, the manual packaging method affects the realization of production automation. Summary of the invention
[0004] In view of this, it is necessary to provide a food packaging device to achieve the requirements of production automation.
[0005] A food packaging device is used to place a product into a packaging box. The device includes a driving component and an adsorption component installed on the driving component. The adsorption component includes a first adsorption piece for grabbing the product. The driving component includes a first driving assembly, a second driving assembly installed on the first driving assembly, and a third driving assembly installed on the second driving assembly. The first adsorption piece is installed on the third driving assembly. The first driving assembly is used to drive the second driving assembly and the third driving assembly to move horizontally to a position above the product. The second driving assembly is used to drive the third driving assembly and the first adsorption piece installed on the third driving assembly to move vertically toward the product to a position where the product can be operated. The third driving assembly is used to drive the first adsorption piece to grab the product. The first adsorption piece moves under the drive of the first driving assembly, the second driving assembly, and the third driving assembly to transfer the product to the packaging box.
[0006] The present invention drives the first adsorption component to move to the position of the product through the first drive component and the second drive component, and drives the first adsorption component to grab the product through the third drive component. The first adsorption component places the product into a packaging box under the drive of the first drive component, the second drive component and the third drive component, thereby avoiding the influence of operator fatigue on product production efficiency and realizing the automation of packaging method.
