Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of food processing, in particular to a puff filling device. Background Art

[0002] The puff filling equipment is a baking equipment specially used to inject fillings into the puffs. There are various types of fillings, including cream or chocolate, which may also contain solid raw materials such as nut fragments and fruit pieces. In the process of making puffs, after making the hollow puff shell, the filling needs to be put into the hopper of the filling equipment. The hopper is mainly used to temporarily store the filling, so that the filling can enter the filling pump, and then the puff filling equipment is used to fill it with fillings. The filling equipment realizes the automatic injection of fillings through the cooperation of the filling pump, the filling head and the lifting component.

[0003] A puff cream filling device with Chinese patent application number 202410885382.4 can accurately determine the distance that the rectangular plate drives the support rod to move downward through the cooperation of a limit plate and a scale. The downward movement of the support rod drives the sleeve and the injection tube to move downward, so that it can not only fill the bread of different heights, but also control the height of the bread filling to prevent the injection tube from penetrating the bread and causing cream overflow, affecting the subsequent sales of the bread. The rotation of the stirring blade can stir the cream in the hopper to prevent it from solidifying and affecting subsequent applications. The rotation of the stirring rod drives the conveying auger to rotate, and the cream in the hopper can be orderly transported to the inside of the material pipe through the conveying auger, and finally output by the injection tube through the discharge pipe and the sleeve to realize the filling of the puff.

[0004] During use, the existing puff filling equipment is not convenient for maintaining the height of the filling inside the hopper. When the filling is too high or too low, the feed pressure of the filling pump will fluctuate, which will exert additional pressure on the filling pump and other related components, thereby accelerating the wear of the equipment and reducing its service life. Summary of the invention

[0005] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is that the existing puff filling equipment is not convenient for maintaining the height of the filling inside the hopper during use. When the filling is too high or too low, the feed pressure of the filling pump will fluctuate, which will exert additional pressure on the filling pump and other related components, thereby accelerating the wear of the equipment and reducing its service life.

[0007] A filling device body, wherein a conveying mechanism for conveying puff shells is installed inside the filling device body, a lifting assembly and a filling pump are fixedly installed on the top of the filling device body, a plurality of electric filling heads are installed on the moving end of the lifting assembly, and the plurality of electric filling heads are connected to the discharge end of the filling pump;

[0008] A hopper mechanism is fixedly mounted on the top of the filling pump, and a discharge end of the hopper mechanism is connected to a feed end of the filling pump.

[0009] As a preferred solution of the puff filling equipment of the present invention, an inclined portion is provided on the left side of the top of the filling filling equipment body, a feed trough is installed on the top of the inclined portion, and the feed trough is located at the feeding end of the filling filling equipment body.

[0010] As a preferred solution of the puff filling equipment of the present invention, a discharge conveyor belt is fixedly installed on the right side of the filling equipment body, and the discharge conveyor belt is located at the discharge end of the conveying mechanism.

[0011] As a preferred solution of the puff filling equipment of the present invention, the hopper mechanism includes a feeding assembly, a regulating assembly connected to the feeding assembly is installed on the top of the feeding assembly, and a switching assembly connected to the regulating assembly is installed on the top of the regulating assembly.

[0012] As a preferred solution of the puff filling equipment of the present invention, the feeding assembly includes a feeding hopper, the feeding hopper is fixedly installed on the top of the filling pump, and the surface of the feeding hopper is connected to a feeding pipe.

[0013] As a preferred solution of the puff filling equipment of the present invention, the regulating component includes a cylinder fixedly installed on the top of the lower hopper, and the inner wall of the cylinder is slidably connected with a lifting plate.

[0014] As a preferred solution of the puff filling equipment of the present invention, the top of the lifting plate is fixedly connected to a corrugated airbag, the corrugated airbag is fixedly installed on the top of the inner cavity of the cylinder, and the top of the corrugated airbag is connected to a ventilation pipe.

[0015] As a preferred solution of the puff filling equipment of the present invention, the on-off assembly includes a tube body, a fixed ring is fixedly sleeved on the surface of the tube body, a support rod is fixedly connected to the bottom of the fixed ring, and the support rod is fixedly installed on the top of the cylinder.

[0016] As a preferred solution of the puff filling equipment described in the present invention, wherein: the inner cavity of the tube body is fixedly connected with a hollow annular frame, the inner wall of the hollow annular frame is fixedly connected with an expansion airbag, one end of the expansion airbag is connected with a bent pipe, the air inlet end of the bent pipe is connected with the air outlet end of the ventilation pipe, and a sealing ring is provided on the outer side of the expansion airbag, and the sealing ring is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the tube body.

[0018] Beneficial effects of the present invention:

[0019] 1. The present invention can keep the filling in a constant height range through the coordinated use of the feeding component, the regulating component and the on-off component. The fixed filling height is conducive to the filling pump to work in the most efficient manner. It will not cause excessive load due to excessive filling, nor will it be inefficient due to insufficient filling. This can not only improve production efficiency, but also extend the service life of the equipment, reduce maintenance requirements, and help ensure that the amount of filling pumped out each time is consistent. This is because if the filling height changes greatly, it may cause changes in the pumping pressure, which in turn affects the amount of filling injected into the puff each time.

[0020] 2. The present invention can vibrate and stir the filling inside the feeding component up and down through the coordinated use of the vibration component and the stirring component. For fillings containing solid components, long-term standing can easily lead to stratification or precipitation. Vibration and stirring can help these components to remain evenly distributed, ensuring that the filling ingredients injected into the puff are consistent each time. Moreover, when the filling has a high viscosity or contains particulate matter, poor fluidity may occur. Appropriate vibration can make the filling looser and reduce the stacking angle, thereby improving its fluidity and helping it to flow smoothly out of the feeding component. Ensuring the continuous supply and uniform distribution of the filling not only improves the continuity of production, but also reduces downtime caused by blockage or other problems, thereby improving overall production efficiency.

The bottom of the connecting ring 6051 is rotatably connected to a stirring rod 6052. There are several stirring rods 6052, which are distributed around the bottom of the connecting ring 6051 to evenly stir the filling.

[0053] Furthermore, a plurality of disc-shaped vibrating members 6055 are sleeved on the surface of the rod body 6053 .

[0054] Furthermore, the top and bottom of the disc-shaped vibrating member 6055 are fixedly connected with an annular elastic membrane 6054 , the inner wall of the annular elastic membrane 6054 is fixedly connected with a fixing tube 6056 , and the fixing tube 6056 is fixedly sleeved on the surface of the rod body 6053 .

[0055] Furthermore, a support ring 6059 is fixedly connected to the middle end of the inner cavity of the disc-shaped vibrating member 6055.

[0056] Furthermore, the top and bottom of the inner cavity of the disc-shaped vibrator 6055 are filled with gas to support the annular elastic membrane 6054 and enable it to expand outward. The pull belt 6057 pulls back the outward-expanding annular elastic membrane 6054 to prevent it from excessive deformation and assists the annular elastic membrane 6054 in quickly resetting after deformation. The diameter of one end of the annular elastic membrane 6054 is smaller than that of the other end, and is stretched by the disc-shaped vibrator 6055 and the fixed tube 6056 to form a conical structure. The length of the fixed tube 6056 is longer than that of the disc-shaped vibrator 6055.

[0057] Furthermore, a plurality of steel balls 6058 are provided at the top and bottom of the inner cavity of the annular elastic membrane 6054, and a support ring 6059 separates the steel balls 6058 in different cavities. The steel balls 6058 are located on the inner side of the annular elastic membrane 6054, and roll along with the vibration of the disc-shaped vibrator 6055, impacting the inner side of the annular elastic membrane 6054, driving the annular elastic membrane 6054 to perform irregular wave deformation, thereby vibrating the filling filled in the blanking component 601.

[0058] When filling the puff shell with filling material using the puff filling equipment, the following steps are included:

[0059] S1. The puff shells enter the top of the conveying mechanism 3 through the feeding trough 2. The conveying mechanism 3 conveys the puff shells to the bottom of the electric filling head 5. During the conveying process, the puff shells are identified by the proximity sensor.

[0060] S2. The filling inside the material tank enters the hopper mechanism 6 through the delivery pump and maintains a suitable height inside the hopper mechanism 6, so that the filling pump 7 maintains a stable feeding pressure. The filling pump 7 delivers the filling to the electric filling head 5, and the lifting assembly 4 drives the electric filling head 5 to move downward, and the filling injection needle at the bottom of the electric filling head 5 is inserted into the puff shell to realize the filling of the puff shell, so that it is processed into a complete puff.

[0061] S3, after the filling is completed, the lifting assembly 4 drives the electric filling head 5 to reset, and the conveying mechanism 3 continues to convey the puffs, so that the puffs enter the top of the discharge conveyor belt 8, and the discharge conveyor belt 8 conveys the puffs to the next processing step.

[0062] S4. During the operation of the hopper mechanism 6, the filling enters into the interior of the discharge component 601 through the on-off component 603, and the filling inside the discharge component 601 enters into the filling pump 7. When the filling inside the discharge component 601 accumulates too high and causes excessive pressure, it will drive the regulating component 602 to work. The regulating component 602 controls the amount of filling entering the on-off component 603 through the transmission of gas, thereby maintaining a constant height of the filling inside the discharge component 601.

[0063] S5. When the filling inside the lower hopper 6011 is too high, the lifting plate 6025 is driven to slide upward on the inner wall of the cylinder 6021. The lifting plate 6025 compresses the corrugated airbag 6026, so that the gas inside the corrugated airbag 6026 enters the expansion airbag 6037 through the vent pipe 6022 and the bend pipe 6034. The expansion airbag 6037 expands after the internal air pressure increases. The surface of the expansion airbag 6037 contacts the inner wall of the sealing ring 60310, and the cylinder body 6031 is compressed. 1 The filling material flowing inside is blocked. When the filling material inside the lower hopper 6011 drops to the set height, the lifting plate 6025 is reset, and the gas inside the inflatable airbag 6037 flows back into the corrugated airbag 6026. The corrugated airbag 6026 can be filled and deflated through the air nozzle 6023 to change the air pressure inside. When the pressure inside the lifting plate 6025 increases, the lifting plate 6025 moves downward to reduce the filling material storage height inside the lower hopper 6011.

[0064] S6. When the filling inside the feeding component 601 needs to be improved, the vibration component 604 and the stirring component 605 are started. The vibration component 604 and the stirring component 605 vibrate and stir the filling to avoid internal sedimentation and improve its fluidity.

[0065] S7. During the operation of the vibration assembly 604, the vibration motor 6044 drives the vibration plate 6041 to vibrate. The vibration plate 6041 vibrates up and down inside the mounting groove 6024. The rubber sleeve 6042 and the spring 6043 elastically support the vibration plate 6041. The bottom of the vibration plate 6041 contacts the filling, transmitting the vibration to the inside of the filling.

[0066] S8. During the vibration of the vibration plate 6041, the connecting ring 6051 and the rod body 6053 are synchronously driven to vibrate. The connecting ring 6051 drives the stirring rod 6052 to swing inside the filling to stir the filling. The rod body 6053 drives a number of disc-shaped vibrators 6055 to work. The disc-shaped vibrators 6055 are located inside the filling and also vibrate the filling. The filling is stirred as the lifting plate 6025 moves up and down.

[0067] S9. When the disc-shaped vibrating member 6055 is moving, the steel ball 6058 inside impacts the annular elastic membrane 6054, driving the annular elastic membrane 6054 to vibrate. The annular elastic membrane 6054 evenly transmits the vibration to the inside of the filling. After the annular elastic membrane 6054 is deformed, the annular elastic membrane 6054 can be quickly reset by pulling the pull belt 6057.
