The rotating roller four is connected to the rotating roller one through the No. 2 belt. The rotating roller four rotates and passes through the machine base. The slider is slidably installed on the circumferential surface of the rotating roller four. The baffle is fixedly installed at the bottom of the slider. The rotating roller one rotates and drives the rotating roller four to rotate through the No. 2 belt. The rotating roller four rotates and drives the sliders on both sides to move toward the center of the conveying crawler through the spiral groove. When the slider moves, it drives the baffle to move. When the baffle contacts the food, it pushes the food on both sides to the center of the conveying crawler.

[0008] According to the above technical solution, spiral grooves are opened on the left and right sides of the rotating roller four, and the slider is threadedly connected to the spiral groove. The rotating roller four rotates through the spiral groove to drive the sliders on both sides to move toward the center of the conveying track, and the movement of the slider drives the baffle to move.

[0009] According to the above technical solution, the conveying device also includes a piston rod and a rotating roller five, the piston rod is fixedly installed on the right side of the slider, the rotating roller five is connected to the transmission crawler transmission, and the rotating roller five rotates through the inner and outer walls of the machine base.

The connecting rod is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the machine base, the cylinder is fixedly installed on the rear side of the connecting rod, the nozzle is fixedly installed on the bottom of the cylinder, the nozzle is connected to the cylinder, and the rotating roller six is ​​connected to the rotating roller five through the No. 3 belt. The rotating roller six rotates and penetrates the inner and outer walls of the machine base. When the slider moves, it drives the piston rod to move. The movement of the piston rod will squeeze the air inside the cylinder, so that the air is ejected from the nozzle.

[0011] According to the above technical solution, the circumferential surface of the rotating roller six is ​​provided with a brush, and the rotating roller six rotates to clean the surface of the conveying track through the brush, and the cylinder is in contact with the piston rod.

[0012] According to the above technical scheme, the discharging device includes a rotating roller seven, a fixed plate, a fixed shaft, a half gear, an output plate and a rack block. The rotating roller seven is connected to the rotating roller five through the No. 4 belt. The fixed plate is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the machine base, the fixed shaft is fixedly installed on the top of the fixed plate, the half gear is rotatably installed on the circumferential surface of the fixed shaft, the output plate is fixedly installed on the top of the half gear, and the rack block is slidably installed on the circumferential surface of the rotating roller seven. The rotating roller five rotates through the No. 4 belt to drive the rotating roller seven to rotate. The rotating roller seven rotates through the spiral groove to make the rack block slide back and forth on the circumferential surface of the rotating roller seven. When the rack block moves, it will contact the half gear to make the half gear rotate, and the rotation of the half gear drives the output plate to rotate.

[0013] According to the above technical solution, a spiral groove is provided on the circumferential surface of the rotating roller seven, the half gear is meshed with the rack block, the rack block is threadedly connected to the spiral groove, and the rotating roller seven rotates through the spiral groove so that the rack block slides back and forth on the circumferential surface of the rotating roller seven.

[0014] The present invention provides a conveyor for food, which has the following beneficial effects: (1) The invention, through the setting of the feeding device, places a fixed amount of food inside the loading plate, and starts the rotating motor to drive the rotating roller 1 to rotate in coordination with the conveying crawler, rotating roller 5, rotating roller 2, chain belt, and rotating roller so that the shifting block contacts the loading plate and the loading plate moves toward the conveying crawler, that is, the fixed amount of food is transported to the top of the conveying crawler through the input plate. At this time, the No. 1 spring will be deformed due to the movement of the loading plate. When the maximum extension and contraction degree is reached, the loading plate is retracted to its original position. At this time, the fixed amount of food is transported to the subsequent device through the conveying crawler. The fixed amount of food transport brings a more consistent and predictable production process. Each step on the production line can be adjusted and optimized according to the predetermined food quantity and speed, thereby improving the overall production efficiency. Unfixed amount of food transport may cause overload or blockage of the conveying crawler. If too much food is piled up on the conveying crawler, it may cause the conveying crawler to slide poorly or stop running, thereby affecting the entire production process.

[0015] (2) In the present invention, by setting up the conveying device, rotating roller 1 rotates and drives rotating roller 4 to rotate through belt No. 2. Rotating roller 4 rotates and drives sliders on both sides to move toward the center of the conveying track through the spiral groove. When the slider moves, it drives the baffle to move. When the baffle contacts the food, it pushes the food on both sides to the center of the conveying track. When the food on both sides of the conveying track is not pushed to the center, they may cause the conveying track to be blocked or clogged due to offset or asymmetry, which will not only affect the production efficiency but also cause equipment damage or production interruption. When the slider moves, it drives the piston rod to move. The movement of the piston rod squeezes the air inside the cylinder, causing the air to be ejected from the nozzle. The dust, debris or other debris on the surface of the food can be removed by blowing. This is very important for ensuring the hygiene and safety of food during transportation, especially in the food processing and packaging industry.

[0016] (3) In the present invention, by setting up the discharging device, the rotating roller five rotates and drives the rotating roller seven to rotate through the No. 4 belt. The rotating roller seven rotates through the spiral groove so that the rack block slides back and forth on the circumferential surface of the rotating roller seven. When the rack block moves, it contacts the half gear and causes the half gear to rotate. The rotation of the half gear drives the output plate to rotate. The rotation of the output plate can transport the food falling onto the surface of the output plate to different subsequent processes. Different food processing processes may require specific output directions to adapt to production needs and process requirements. By flexibly adjusting the output direction of the food on the conveyor belt, the needs of the production process can be better met, thereby improving the flexibility and adaptability of the production line.
