DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0020] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solution in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are 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.

[0021] In addition, the term "and / or" in this article is only a description of the association relationship between the associated objects, indicating that there can be three relationships. For example, A and / or B can represent: A exists alone, A and B exist at the same time, and B exists alone. In addition, the character " / " in this article generally indicates that the associated objects before and after are in an "or" relationship.

[0022] like Figures 1 to 10 As shown, a blending device for the production of flavors and spices is mainly composed of a frame 1, a partition 11, a top plate 10, a transmission mechanism 3, a mixing mechanism 8, a weighing mechanism 4, a plurality of barrels 12 and a plurality of electric discharge valves 13. The barrel 12 stores powdered flavors and spices, which may be vanilla powder, rose powder and sandalwood powder. Among them, the partition 11 and the top plate 10 are connected to the frame 1. The transmission mechanism 3 is installed on the partition 11, and the transmission mechanism 3 can drive the weighing mechanism 4 to move under the plurality of electric discharge valves 13. The plurality of barrels 12 are respectively connected to the corresponding electric discharge valves 13 for storing powdered flavor and spices raw materials. The mixing mechanism 8 is used to mix different kinds of flavors and spices to achieve the blending of flavors and spices. A processor 14 is also installed inside the frame 1. The electric discharge valve 13 is an automatic control discharge device commonly used in various industrial equipment. It is composed of an electric drive device and a valve body, and can automatically adjust the outflow of powdered flavors and spices according to the control signal of the processor 14.

[0023] In actual use, the user can pre-set the amount of flavors and spices that need to be added to each barrel 12 in the processor 14. During the unloading process, the processor 14 controls the switch state of the electric discharge valve 13 by receiving real-time data from the pressure sensor 404 to achieve the weighing of the flavors and spices. Specifically, the pressure value monitored by the pressure sensor 404 is related to the weight of the flavors and spices on the platform 406. The processor 14 obtains the pressure value from the pressure sensor 404, and the processor 14 compares it with the set target weight range. If the current weight is lower than the target range, the processor 14 instructs the electric discharge valve 13 to open and increase the inflow of flavors and spices until the value monitored by the pressure sensor 404 is within the target value range, and the processor 14 controls the electric discharge valve 13 to close. Through this control process, the system can automatically grasp the weighing process of flavors and spices and complete the production task.

[0024] Among them, the delay in the material discharge process can be reduced by using a pressure sensor 404 with a faster response speed, optimizing the control algorithm, improving the computing power of the processor 14, and selecting a fast-responding electric discharge valve 13, thereby achieving more accurate weighing control.

[0025] Among them, the specific working principle and usage method of the processor 14 are technical means well known to those skilled in the art and will not be described in detail here.

[0026] In this embodiment, the weighing mechanism 4 includes a frame 401, a protrusion 403, a limit bar 402, a pressure sensor 404, a bottom plate 405, a platform 406, a tension spring 409, a fence 407 and a cushion block 408. The frame 401 is connected to the protrusion 403, the protrusion 403 is slidably connected to the limit bar 402, and the frame 401 can slide along the limit bar 402. The frame 401 is connected to the bottom plate 405 through the pressure sensor 404, and the pressure sensor 404 can measure the weight of the flavor and fragrance, wherein the pressure sensor 404 is connected to the processor 14. The pressure sensor 404 is used to measure the weight change above the bottom plate 405. The connection position of the bottom plate 405 and the platform 406 is rotatably connected by a pin shaft, the bottom of the platform 406 is fitted with the pad 408, the pad 408 supports the platform 406, and ensures that the platform 406 is in a horizontal state when not driven by external force, and the pad 408 is connected to the bottom plate 405. The enclosure 407 is connected to the platform 406, and the enclosure 407 can prevent the granular materials on the platform 406 from flowing out from the side of the platform 406. The platform 406 and the bottom plate 405 are connected with the tension spring 409, and the tension spring 409 always gives the bottom plate 405 a downward elastic force, so that the bottom plate 405 can return to its original position after being supported by the rod body 704.

[0027] In actual use, the processor 14 can control the electric discharge valve 13 to start. After the electric discharge valve 13 is opened, the material inside the barrel 12 enters the platform 406 for weighing. When the preset weight value is reached, the platform 406 can rotate relative to the bottom plate 405. At this time, the material on the platform 406 enters the mixing mechanism 8, and so on. The platform 406 is driven by the transmission mechanism 3 to move to the bottom of different barrels 12, thereby realizing the addition of different types of powdered flavors and fragrances.

[0028] In this embodiment, a discharging mechanism 7 is also included. The discharging mechanism 7 includes a plate 701, a guide groove 702, a round wheel 703, a rod 704, a pad 706 and a first spring 705. The guide groove 702 is processed on the plate 701, and the round wheel 703 can slide in the guide groove 702. The guide groove 702 is concavely arranged at the lower position of the barrel 12. The round wheel 703 is rotatably connected to the rod 704 through a bearing, and the rod 704 passes through the frame 401 and the bottom plate 405 and the rod 704 can move up and down relative to the frame 401 and the bottom plate 405. The rod 704 is connected to the pad 706, and the first spring 705 is sleeved on the rod 704, and the pad 706 and the frame 401 are connected to the first spring 705.

[0029] In actual use, the transmission mechanism 3 will also drive the rod body 704 and the round wheel 703 to move synchronously in the process of driving the platform 406 to translate. Since the guide groove 702 corresponds to the lower position of the barrel 12 as a recessed setting, when the rod body 704 and the round wheel 703 pass through the recessed position on the guide groove 702, the platform 406 is in a horizontal state at this time. When the round wheel 703 does not pass through the recessed position on the guide groove 702, the round wheel 703 moves upward for a distance in the vertical direction at this time. At this time, the rod body 704 that is not in contact with the platform 406 will lift the platform 406, wherein the position where the platform 406 is rotatably connected to the bottom plate 405 is set on the side close to the mixing mechanism 8. The rotating platform 406 will pour the weighed material into the mixing mechanism 8. When the round wheel 703 moves to the lower part of another barrel 12, the round wheel 703 will enter another recessed position of the guide groove 702, and the platform 406 will be in a horizontal state again at this time. The first spring 705 provides the rod 704 with a downward elastic force, which can prevent the rod 704 from contacting the platform 406 and affecting the weighing value of the pressure sensor 404. The weighed raw materials on the platform 406 are automatically lowered by setting the round wheel 703 and the guide groove 702 with a depression, without the need for additional electric equipment or hydraulic components to lower the materials, thus saving the production cost of the device.

[0030] In this embodiment, the transmission mechanism 3 includes a first motor 301, a first synchronous wheel 302, a first synchronous belt 303, a second synchronous wheel 304 and a connecting frame 305. The output end of the first motor 301 is connected to the first synchronous wheel 302, and the first motor 301 serves as a power source to provide power for the entire transmission process. The first synchronous wheel 302 is connected to the second synchronous wheel 304 through the first synchronous belt 303, thereby realizing the transmission of power of the first motor 301. The first synchronous wheel 302 and the second synchronous wheel 304 are both rotatably connected to the frame 1, thereby ensuring the stability of the first synchronous wheel 302 and the second synchronous wheel 304 during the rotation process. The connecting frame 305 is connected to the first synchronous belt 303, and the connecting frame 305 is connected to the frame body 401.

[0031] In actual use, when the first motor 301 is started, the first synchronous wheel 302, the first synchronous belt 303 and the second synchronous wheel 304 work in coordination to drive the connecting frame 305 to move, thereby driving the weighing mechanism 4 to move under the multiple electric discharge valves 13, thereby meeting the working requirements of the blending equipment for weighing and collecting the flavor and fragrance raw materials in different barrels 12.

[0032] In this embodiment, an auxiliary mechanism 5 and a knocking assembly 6 are also included. The second synchronous wheel 304 can drive the knocking assembly 6 to move through the auxiliary mechanism 5. The knocking assembly 6 includes a rack 601, a ring gear 602, an annular groove 610, four sliders 604, four connecting members 603, a contact wheel 606, a block 605, a torsion spring 608, a fillet 611, a shaft 609 and a knocking rod 607. The rack 601 is meshed with the ring gear 602. When the second synchronous wheel 304 drives the rack 601 to move through the auxiliary mechanism 5, the rack 601 will drive the ring gear 602 to rotate. The annular groove 610 is machined on the ring gear 602, and the four sliders 604 are slidably connected to the annular groove 610. The four sliders 604 are respectively connected to the four connecting members 603, and the four connecting members 603 are connected to the barrel 12. The four sliders 604 can support the ring gear 602 to prevent the ring gear 602 from deviating when rotating. The contact wheel 606 is arranged on the inner side of the gear ring 602, and the contact wheel 606 is rotatably connected to the gear ring 602. The block 605 is connected to the barrel 12, the block 605 is rotatably connected to the shaft 609, the shaft 609 is connected to the knocking rod 607, the torsion spring 608 is sleeved on the shaft 609, the two ends of the torsion spring 608 are respectively connected to the block 605 and the knocking rod 607, the fillet 611 is processed on the knocking rod 607, and the contact wheel 606 can contact the fillet 611 on the knocking rod 607.

[0033] In actual use, the auxiliary mechanism 5 drives the rack 601 to move under the transmission of the second synchronous wheel 304. The rack 601 will mesh with the ring gear 602 during the movement, and the ring gear 602 will drive the contact wheel 606 located inside to rotate during the rotation. The contact wheel 606 will intermittently contact the rounded corner 611 on the knocking rod 607 and push the knocking rod 607 to rotate around the shaft 609. The purpose of setting the rounded corner 611 is to enable the knocking rod 607 to rotate in the direction close to the barrel 12 when the contact wheel 606 contacts the knocking rod 607, so as to avoid the knocking rod 607 with a right angle side being stuck when it contacts the contact wheel 606. At this time, the knocking rod 607 will hit the bottom of the barrel 12. The torsion spring 608 provides a restoring force after the knocking rod 607 rotates and hits the barrel 12, causing the knocking rod 607 to reciprocate, thereby knocking the barrel 12, further promoting the loosening of the powdered flavors and fragrances in the barrel 12, ensuring the smoothness of the discharge, and improving the working efficiency and stability of the entire flavor and fragrance blending equipment.

[0034] In this embodiment, the auxiliary mechanism 5 includes a first transmission shaft 501, a third synchronous wheel 502, a second synchronous belt 503, a fourth synchronous wheel 504, a second transmission shaft 511, a cam 505, a roller 513 and a crossbeam 512. The first transmission shaft 501 is connected to the second synchronous wheel 304, so as to realize the power connection between the transmission mechanism 3 and the auxiliary mechanism 5, and the first transmission shaft 501 is rotatably connected to the frame 1. The first transmission shaft 501 is connected to the third synchronous wheel 502, and the third synchronous wheel 502 is connected to the fourth synchronous wheel 504 through the second synchronous belt 503, so as to realize the further transmission of power, and the fourth synchronous wheel 504 is connected to the second transmission shaft 511, and the second transmission shaft 511 is also rotatably connected to the frame 1 through a bearing, so as to ensure the smooth operation of the second transmission shaft 511. The second transmission shaft 511 is connected to the cam 505.

[0035] In actual use, when the second synchronous wheel 304 rotates, the power is transmitted to the second transmission shaft 511 through the first transmission shaft 501, the third synchronous wheel 502, the second synchronous belt 503, and the fourth synchronous wheel 504 in sequence, thereby driving the cam 505 to rotate. The cam 505 fits with the roller 513, and the roller 513 is rotatably connected with the crossbeam 512. Compared with the direct contact between the cam 505 and the crossbeam 512, the contact between the cam 505 and the roller 513 reduces friction. As the cam 505 continues to rotate, the cam 505 will periodically push the roller 513 to make the crossbeam 512 move laterally. The crossbeam 512 is connected to the rack 601 in the knocking assembly 6, thereby driving the rack 601 to move in a straight line, realizing the driving of the knocking assembly 6, and finally completing the knocking and shaking action of the barrel 12, ensuring the loosening of the material in the barrel 12 and the smooth discharge of the material.

[0036] In this embodiment, the auxiliary mechanism 5 further includes a stopper 509, a second spring 510, a cavity 506, a limiting rod 508 and a frame 507. The cavity 506 is processed on the crossbeam 512, and the frame 507 is slidably connected with the cavity 506. The crossbeam 512 can only move horizontally and linearly due to the limit of the frame 507. The stopper 509 is connected with the cavity 506. The frame 507 is connected with the limiting rod 508, and the limiting rod 508 passes through the stopper 509. The second spring 510 is sleeved on the limiting rod 508, and the two ends of the second spring 510 are respectively connected with the stopper 509 and the frame 507. When the crossbeam 512 performs a horizontal reciprocating motion under the action of the cam 505 and the roller 513. The second spring 510 gives the crossbeam 512 an elastic force that always moves toward the cam 505, and the second spring 510 makes the frame 507 always contact with the cam 505 by its own elastic force.

[0037] In actual use, when the cam 505 rotates, the raised position on the cam 505 will contact the roller 513, and after contacting the roller 513, it will drive the crossbeam 512 to move. When the crossbeam 512 moves in a direction away from the cam 505, it will compress the second spring 510. When the raised position of the cam 505 is separated from the roller 513, the second spring 510 at this time loses external force support and drives the crossbeam 512 to move in a direction close to the cam 505. The reciprocating motion of the crossbeam 512 is achieved by relying on the elastic deformation of the second spring 510, and then the reciprocating motion of the rack 601 is achieved. This device not only changes the position of the platform 406 through the first motor 301, but also realizes the dredging of the inside of the barrel 12, ensuring the normal progress of the batching process, and the whole process does not require human intervention. In addition, this device completes multiple steps in the production of flavors and fragrances with the help of only one first motor 301, saving manufacturing costs and subsequent maintenance costs.

[0038] In this embodiment, the mixing mechanism 8 includes a material box 801, a door body 802, a stirring blade 804 and a second motor 803. The second motor 803 and the material box 801 are fixed to the frame 1, the output end of the second motor 803 is connected to the stirring blade 804, and the stirring blade 804 is rotatably connected to the material box 801 through a bearing. The door body 802 is connected to the material box 801. The door body 802 corresponds to the opening position of the material box 801.

[0039] In actual use, the user can start the second motor 803, which can drive the stirring blade 804 to rotate after starting. The stirring blade 804 can mix different kinds of raw materials in the material box 801 during the rotation. After the stirring is completed, the door 802 can be removed to collect the raw materials in the material box 801. The stirring blade 804 is spiral-shaped, and the spiral-shaped stirring blade 804 can generate stronger axial flow and radial flow during the stirring process, and can bring flavors and fragrances from the bottom and side of the material box 801 to the stirring area, reducing dead corners and material accumulation, thereby improving the stirring efficiency.

[0040] In this embodiment, a dripping assembly 9 is provided on the frame 1, and the dripping assembly 9 includes a tank body 901, a first tube body 902, a metering pump 903, a second tube body 904, and a plurality of dripping heads 905. A tank body 901 for storing liquid flavors and fragrances is connected to the frame 1, the first tube body 902 is connected to the tank body 901, the first tube body 902 passes through the frame 1 and is connected to the input end of the metering pump 903, the output end of the metering pump 903 is connected to the second tube body 904, and the metering pump 903 can realize the quantitative release of liquid flavors and fragrances. The second tube body 904 is arranged above the material box 801, and a plurality of dripping heads 905 are equidistantly arranged below the second tube body 904, and the dripping direction of the dripping head 905 corresponds to the material box 801.

[0041] In actual use, the processor 14 can control the start-up of the metering pump 903. After starting, the metering pump 903 can suck out the liquid inside the tank body 901. The metering pump 903 injects the liquid in the tank body 901 into the second tube body 904, and finally drips out from the multiple drip heads 905 on the second tube body 904, thereby realizing the addition of liquid flavors and fragrances in the material box 801, and the multiple drip heads 905 arranged equidistantly improve the mixing effect.

[0042] In addition, another embodiment of the present invention further provides a formulation method for producing flavors and fragrances, comprising: When adding flavor and fragrance raw materials, the processor 14 can control the electric discharge valve 13 to open, and the powdered flavor and fragrance raw materials in the barrel 12 will fall onto the platform 406 .

[0043] Weighing flavor and fragrance raw materials, during the process of unloading, the processor 14 controls the switch state of the electric discharge valve 13 by receiving real-time data from the pressure sensor 404 to achieve the weighing of the flavor and fragrance. Specifically, the pressure value monitored by the pressure sensor 404 is related to the weight of the flavor and fragrance on the platform 406. The processor 14 obtains the pressure value from the pressure sensor 404, and the processor 14 compares it with the set target weight range. If the current weight is lower than the target range, the processor 14 instructs the electric discharge valve 13 to open and increase the inflow of flavors and fragrances until the value monitored by the pressure sensor 404 is within the target value range, and the processor 14 controls the electric discharge valve 13 to close. Through this control process, the system can automatically grasp the weighing process of flavors and fragrances and complete the production task.

[0044] The position of the platform 406 is adjusted. When the first motor 301 is started, the first synchronous wheel 302, the first synchronous belt 303 and the second synchronous wheel 304 work together to drive the connecting frame 305 to move. This drives the weighing mechanism 4 to move below the multiple electric discharge valves 13. This satisfies the working requirements of the blending equipment for weighing and collecting flavor and fragrance raw materials in different barrels 12.

[0045] To clear the barrel 12, the second synchronous wheel 304 drives the first transmission shaft 501 to rotate when rotating, and the first transmission shaft 501 drives the third synchronous wheel 502 to rotate. The third synchronous wheel 502 drives the fourth synchronous wheel 504 to rotate through the second synchronous belt 503, and the fourth synchronous wheel 504 drives the cam 505 to rotate. The cam 505 drives the crossbeam 512 to move during the rotation, and the crossbeam 512 drives the rack 601 to move. The rack 601 will engage the ring gear 602 to rotate during the movement, and the ring gear 602 drives the contact wheel 606 to rotate during the rotation. The contact wheel 606 contacts the fillet 611 on the knocking rod 607 during the rotation of the ring gear 602. At this time, the knocking rod 607 knocks on the bottom of the barrel 12. The torsion spring 608 provides a restoring force after the knocking rod 607 rotates and hits the barrel 12, so that the knocking rod 607 reciprocates, thereby knocking the barrel 12, further promoting the loosening of the material in the barrel 12, ensuring the smoothness of the discharge, and improving the working efficiency and stability of the entire flavor and fragrance blending equipment.

[0046] Mix the various flavor and fragrance raw materials, start the second motor 803, and the second motor 803 drives the stirring blade 804 to rotate, and the stirring blade 804 mixes the various flavor and fragrance raw materials inside the material box 801.

[0047] In this embodiment, the step of adjusting the position of the platform 406 further includes: The platform 406 drives the frame 401, the rod 704 and the round wheel 703 to move during the movement, and the round wheel 703 moves in the guide groove 702 on the plate 701. When the round wheel 703 moves to the raised position on the guide groove 702, the rod 704 moves upward at this time, and the platform 406 is driven to flip at a fixed angle during the upward movement of the rod 704. By setting the round wheel 703 and the guide groove 702 with a concave structure, the weighed raw materials on the platform 406 are automatically lowered, without the need for additional electric equipment or hydraulic components to lower the materials, thereby saving the production cost of the device.

[0048] The above specific implementations do not constitute a limitation on the protection scope of the present invention. It should be understood by those skilled in the art that various modifications, combinations, sub-combinations and substitutions can be made according to design requirements and other factors. Any modification, equivalent substitution and improvement made within the spirit and principle of the present invention should be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
