Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the field of automatic feeding equipment for starch processing, in particular to automatic feeding equipment for starch processing. Background Art

[0002] There are many types of automated feeding equipment for starch processing. One of the most representative ones is the automated feeding equipment for starch processing with cleaning and automatic feeding functions. This type of equipment cleverly integrates the two core functions of cleaning and automatic feeding, and plays a vital role in the front-end link of starch processing. Its cleaning function can efficiently remove impurities, mud and possible microorganisms on the surface of the raw materials, and provide higher purity raw materials for the subsequent starch extraction process; and the automatic feeding function realizes the precise and continuous transportation of raw materials from the storage device to the processing equipment, improves the feeding efficiency, reduces manual intervention, reduces labor intensity, and effectively ensures the continuity and stability of starch processing production.

[0003] The feeding area of ​​the automated feeding equipment for starch processing is mainly fed by a feeding device with a baffle transmission belt. The baffle on the transmission belt plays a role in blocking and guiding the material during the operation of the equipment. However, in order to avoid collision with the mounting frame when rotating to the bottom, this baffle is generally designed to be relatively small. Due to the limited size of the baffle, during the feeding process, when there is a lot of material or the material movement state is unstable, some potatoes may fall off the baffle, affecting the feeding efficiency. Summary of the invention

[0004] Based on this, the purpose of the present invention is to provide an automated feeding equipment for starch processing to solve the technical problem that the baffle size in the existing baffle transmission belt feeding equipment is small, which easily causes some potatoes to fall from the baffle during feeding, affecting the feeding efficiency.

[0005] To achieve the above-mentioned object, the present invention provides the following technical solutions: an automatic feeding device for starch processing, comprising a feeding device, the feeding device comprising a cleaning area and a feeding area, the feeding area comprising two feeding racks, the inner sides of the two feeding racks are provided with guide slide grooves, a transmission belt is installed between the two feeding racks, a plurality of baffles are arranged on the transmission belt, a plurality of rotating grooves are arranged at the front ends of the plurality of baffles, and a rotating plate is installed in the plurality of rotating grooves through a pin shaft connector, and the rotating plate is rotatably connected to the baffle;

[0006] Slide bars are arranged on both sides of the plurality of rotating plates. The slide bars extend into the guide slide grooves and fit tightly with the inner walls of the guide slide grooves to achieve engagement and sliding movement, so as to guide the folding and unfolding of the rotating plates.

[0007] By adopting the above technical solution, the rotating plate can flexibly change its state at different positions of the transmission belt. It can be unfolded at the top to carry more materials and folded at the bottom to avoid collision with the mounting frame, thereby ensuring the stability and efficiency of the equipment operation and improving the feeding capacity.

[0008] Furthermore, the multiple rotating plates are used to improve the feeding capacity, and the guide chute is used to pull the rotating plate to fold. When the rotating plate rotates to the top position of the transmission belt, the rotating plate is perpendicular to the running direction of the transmission belt and is in an unfolded state; when the rotating plate rotates to the bottom position of the transmission belt, the rotating plate is parallel to the running direction of the transmission belt and is in a folded state.

[0009] By adopting the above technical solution, the load-bearing area is increased in the unfolded state, which improves the feeding amount; the collision is avoided in the folded state, which ensures the smooth operation of the transmission belt. This design of automatically switching states according to the position optimizes the feeding process and improves the reliability and feeding efficiency of the equipment.

[0010] Furthermore, the baffle plate and the rotating plate are both made of stainless steel.

[0011] By adopting the above technical solution, the baffle and rotating plate are made of stainless steel, which has good corrosion resistance and can adapt to complex conditions such as moisture and possible acid and alkali substances in the starch processing environment, thereby extending the service life of the equipment and reducing equipment failures and maintenance costs caused by material corrosion.

[0012] Furthermore, an expansion mechanism is provided on the top of the feeding rack, and the expansion mechanism includes an expansion frame, and the expansion frame and the feeding rack are fixedly connected by a plurality of bolts evenly distributed along the circumferential direction.

[0013] By adopting the above technical solution, the function and applicability of the feeding equipment are increased, the equipment function can be flexibly expanded according to actual production needs to meet different scales or special production requirements, and the versatility and flexibility of the equipment are improved.

[0014] Furthermore, a plurality of spray pipes are installed between the feeding racks, and the nozzles of the plurality of spray pipes are directed toward the transmission belt.

[0015] By adopting the above technical solution, multiple spray pipes with nozzles facing the transmission belt are installed between the feeding racks, and the materials on the transmission belt can be sprayed when needed. For example, further cleaning or wetting can be performed during the material conveying process to meet different processing requirements, thereby improving the versatility of the equipment and the flexibility of material processing.

[0016] Furthermore, the cleaning area includes a cleaning pool, and the inner wall of the cleaning pool is provided with a first water spray nozzle and a second water spray nozzle.

[0017] By adopting the above technical solution, a cleaning pool is set up in the cleaning area, and the first and second water nozzles are installed on the inner wall, which provides a basic structure and water spraying device for material cleaning, can comprehensively clean the material, remove impurities and surface dirt, and ensure the quality of subsequent processed materials.

[0018] Furthermore, the first water spray nozzle and the second water spray nozzle are connected to the water tank through a first connecting pipe and a second connecting pipe respectively, and water pumps are provided on the first connecting pipe and the second connecting pipe. The water pumps are synchronously or separately controlled by a control system to adjust the water spray flow and pressure of the water spray nozzle.

[0019] By adopting the above technical solution, the water spray flow and pressure of the water nozzle can be accurately adjusted, and flexibly adjusted according to the cleaning requirements of different materials, thereby improving the cleaning effect and efficiency and realizing the rational use of water resources.

[0020] Furthermore, a filter plate is provided at the lower part of the cleaning pool, and a plurality of filter holes arranged in an irregular array are provided on the filter plate for filtering impurities and sweet potato residues in the cleaning water.

[0021] By adopting the above technical solution, impurities and sweet potato residues in the cleaning water can be effectively filtered, water resources can be recycled, production costs can be reduced, and at the same time, the risk of wear and blockage of equipment by impurities can be reduced to ensure the normal operation of the equipment.

[0022] Furthermore, the baffle plate and the rotating plate are both bonded with anti-skid surfaces by waterproof adhesive, and the material of the anti-skid surface is rubber, which is used to increase the friction between the baffle plate and the rotating plate and the material to prevent the material from slipping.

[0023] By adopting the above technical solution, during the feeding process, the material is prevented from slipping due to the movement or vibration of the transmission belt, thereby ensuring the stability and efficiency of the feeding, increasing the feeding amount and reducing material waste.

[0024] In summary, the present invention mainly has the following beneficial effects:

[0025] 1. The present invention provides a baffle, a rotating groove, a connecting piece, a rotating plate, a sliding rod, and a guide chute. When the rotating plate rotates to the top position with the transmission belt, the rotating plate is perpendicular to the running direction of the transmission belt and is in an unfolded state. At this time, the unfolded rotating plate increases the area for carrying materials and can carry more potatoes, effectively improving the feeding capacity and reducing the situation of falling due to excessive materials, thereby improving the feeding efficiency. When the rotating plate is about to rotate to the bottom position of the transmission belt, the guide chute will pull the rotating plate to fold so that the rotating plate is parallel to the running direction of the transmission belt. At this time, the possibility of the rotating plate colliding with the mounting frame at the bottom is avoided, ensuring that the transmission belt can run smoothly and stably, and will not cause operating failures or abnormal wear due to the obstruction of the rotating plate, thereby ensuring the continuous and stable operation of the entire feeding equipment. Through this arrangement, the normal operation of the transmission belt is improved and guaranteed;

[0026] 2. The present invention provides an anti-slip surface made of rubber. Therefore, during the feeding process, when materials such as potatoes are placed on the baffle and the rotating plate, the anti-slip surface can increase the friction between the materials and the baffle and the rotating plate, thereby preventing the materials from sliding due to inertia or slight vibration during the movement of the transmission belt, ensuring that more materials can be smoothly transported to subsequent processing links, thereby improving the feeding efficiency.

The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain the present invention, and cannot be understood as limiting the present invention.

[0033] Embodiment 1:

[0034] An automatic feeding device for starch processing, such as Figure 1-Figure 4 As shown, it includes a feeding device 1, which includes a cleaning area 101 and a feeding area 102. The feeding area 102 includes two feeding racks 1021. The inner sides of the two feeding racks 1021 are provided with guide slide grooves 1028. A transmission belt 1022 is installed between the two feeding racks 1021. A plurality of baffles 1023 are arranged on the transmission belt 1022. The front ends of the plurality of baffles 1023 are provided with a plurality of rotating grooves 1024. A rotating plate 1026 is installed in the plurality of rotating grooves 1024 through a pin connecting member 1025. The rotating plate 1026 is rotatably connected to the baffle 1023.

[0035] Slide bars 1027 are arranged on both sides of the plurality of rotating plates 1026. The slide bars 1027 extend into the guide chute 1028 and fit closely with the inner wall of the guide chute 1028 to achieve engagement and sliding movement, so as to guide the folding and unfolding of the rotating plates 1026. The guide chute 1028 provided on the inner side of the feeding frame 1021 in the feeding area 102 and the rotating plates 1026 installed through the pin connector 1025 in the front end rotating groove 1024 of the baffle plate 1023 on the transmission belt 1022 cooperate with the slide bars 1027 extending from both sides of the rotating plates 1026 into the guide chute 1028 and fitting closely with the inner wall to achieve engagement and sliding movement and folding and unfolding guidance of the rotating plates 1026. This design enables the rotating plates 1026 to automatically adjust their state according to the position of the transmission belt 1022, expand at the top to increase the bearing area, and fold at the bottom to avoid collision, thereby effectively improving the space utilization and operation stability of the feeding device 1 and ensuring the smoothness of the feeding process.

[0036] See also Figure 1 , Figure 3 , Figure 4, multiple rotating plates 1026 are used to improve the feeding capacity, and the guide chute 1028 is used to pull the rotating plate 1026 to fold. When the rotating plate 1026 rotates to the top position of the transmission belt, the rotating plate 1026 is perpendicular to the running direction of the transmission belt 1022 and is in an unfolded state; when the rotating plate 1026 rotates to the bottom position of the transmission belt, the rotating plate 1026 is parallel to the running direction of the transmission belt 1022 and is in a folded state. Multiple rotating plates 1026 are used to improve the feeding capacity. When the rotating plate 1026 rotates to the top position of the transmission belt 1022 and is perpendicular to the running direction and is in an unfolded state, it can carry more materials; the guide chute 1028 pulls the rotating plate 1026 to fold at the bottom position of the transmission belt 1022 parallel to the running direction to avoid collision with the mounting frame. This design of automatically switching the state of the rotating plate 1026 according to the position of the transmission belt 1022 optimizes the feeding process, improves the feeding efficiency, and enhances the reliability and stability of the equipment.

[0037] See also Figure 1 , Figure 4 The baffle 1023 and the rotating plate 1026 are made of stainless steel, which has good corrosion resistance. In the starch processing environment, it may be exposed to humid air, acid and alkali substances, etc. Stainless steel can effectively resist these corrosion factors, extend the service life of the equipment, reduce the maintenance and replacement costs caused by material damage, and ensure the long-term stable operation of the equipment.

[0038] Embodiment 2:

[0039] See also Figure 1 , Figure 2 The top of the feeding rack 1021 is provided with an expansion mechanism 103, and the expansion mechanism 103 includes an expansion frame 1031. The expansion frame 1031 and the feeding rack 1021 are fixedly connected by multiple bolts evenly distributed along the circumference. The expansion mechanism 103 arranged on the top of the feeding rack 1021 is used to fix the expansion frame 1031 and the feeding rack 1021 with multiple bolts evenly distributed along the circumference. This design increases the functional expansibility of the feeding equipment 1, and the expansion frame 1031 can be flexibly added according to actual production needs to achieve the expansion of different functions, such as adding material processing links or installing auxiliary equipment, thereby improving the versatility and adaptability of the equipment.

[0040] See also Figure 1A plurality of spray pipes 1032 are installed between the feeding racks 1021, and the nozzles of the plurality of spray pipes 1032 are directed toward the transmission belt 1022. The plurality of spray pipes 1032 with nozzles directed toward the transmission belt 1022 installed between the feeding racks 1021 can spray the materials during the material transportation process. For example, the materials can be cleaned, moistened, or added with specific liquids before entering the next processing link, meeting the requirements of different processing techniques, and improving the versatility of the equipment and the flexibility of material processing.

[0041] See also Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 The cleaning area 101 includes a cleaning pool 1011, and the inner wall of the cleaning pool 1011 is provided with a first water spray nozzle 1012 and a second water spray nozzle 1013. The inner wall of the cleaning pool 1011 of the cleaning area 101 is provided with a first water spray nozzle 1012 and a second water spray nozzle 1013, which provides a basic water spray device for material cleaning. The material can be sprayed with water from different directions to effectively remove impurities and dirt on the surface of the material, ensure the quality of the subsequent processed material, and improve the overall quality of starch processing.

[0042] See also Figure 1 , Figure 2 The first water nozzle 1012 and the second water nozzle 1013 are connected to the water tank 1015 through the first connecting pipe 1016 and the second connecting pipe 1017 respectively, and the first connecting pipe 1016 and the second connecting pipe 1017 are both provided with a water pump 1018. The water pump 1018 is synchronously or separately controlled by the control system to adjust the water spray flow rate and pressure of the water nozzle. This setting can accurately adjust the water spray effect according to the cleaning requirements and characteristics of the material, improve the cleaning efficiency and quality, and at the same time realize the rational use of water resources and reduce production costs.

[0043] See also Figure 1 , Figure 2 A filter plate 1014 is provided at the bottom of the cleaning pool 1011, and a plurality of filter holes arranged in an irregular array are provided on the filter plate 1014, which are used to filter impurities and sweet potato residues in the cleaning water. The filter plate 1014 provided at the bottom of the cleaning pool 1011 has a plurality of filter holes arranged in an irregular array, which can effectively filter impurities and sweet potato residues in the cleaning water. This prevents impurities and residues from entering the subsequent processing links, ensures the normal operation of the equipment, and realizes the recycling of water resources, reduces water resource waste, and reduces production costs.

[0044] See also Figure 1 , Figure 2The baffle plate 1023 and the rotating plate 1026 are both bonded with an anti-skid surface 2 by waterproof adhesive. The anti-skid surface 2 is made of rubber and is used to increase the friction between the baffle plate 1023 and the rotating plate 1026 and the material to prevent the material from sliding off. The rubber anti-skid surface 2 bonded by waterproof adhesive on the baffle plate 1023 and the rotating plate 1026 increases the friction between the material and the material. During the feeding process, the material can be prevented from sliding off due to the movement or vibration of the transmission belt 1022, ensuring that the material is stably transported to the next link, improving the accuracy and stability of feeding, and reducing material waste.

[0045] The implementation principle of this embodiment is as follows: first, in the cleaning area 101 of the feeding device 1, the potatoes and other materials to be processed are placed in the cleaning pool 1011, and the first water spray nozzle 1012 and the second water spray nozzle 1013 arranged on the inner wall of the cleaning pool 1011 pump water from the water tank 1015 through the water pump 1018, and the water spray flow rate and pressure are adjusted according to the control system to perform all-round cleaning of the materials. The cleaned water passes through the filter plate 1014 to filter out impurities and potato residues, thereby realizing the recycling of water resources, ensuring the cleaning effect while saving water resources;

[0046] After cleaning, the material is transported to the feeding area 102, and the transmission belt 1022 is driven by power to continuously operate, driving the multiple baffles 1023 and the rotating plate 1026 arranged thereon to move synchronously. When the rotating plate 1026 rotates to the top position along with the transmission belt 1022, due to the guiding effect of the guide chute 1028, the slide bars 1027 on both sides of the rotating plate 1026 engage and slide in the guide chute 1028, so that the rotating plate 1026 is perpendicular to the running direction of the transmission belt 1022 and is in an unfolded state. At this time, the unfolded rotating plate 1026 increases the area for carrying materials and can carry more washed potatoes and other materials.

[0047] As the transmission belt 1022 continues to run, when the rotating plate 1026 rotates to the bottom of the transmission belt, the guide slide 1028 plays a role again, pulling the rotating plate 1026 to fold, so that the rotating plate 1026 is parallel to the running direction of the transmission belt 1022. This folding design cleverly avoids the possibility of the rotating plate 1026 colliding with the mounting frame at the bottom, ensuring that the transmission belt 1022 can run smoothly and stably;

[0048] At the same time, the baffle 1023 and the rotating plate 1026 are made of stainless steel, which has good corrosion resistance and strength, and can adapt to the complex conditions such as moisture, acid and alkali that may exist in the starch processing environment, thereby extending the service life of the equipment. Moreover, the anti-slip surface 2 arranged on the baffle 1023 and the rotating plate 1026, whose rubber material increases the friction between the material and further prevents the material from slipping during the conveying process, thereby ensuring the stability and efficiency of feeding;

[0049] When the rotating plate 1026 carrying the material moves to a suitable position, the material falls from the rotating plate 1026 and the baffle 1023 into the crusher below under the action of gravity or through a specific unloading mechanism, completing the feeding process;

[0050] In addition, the expansion mechanism 103 on the top of the feeding rack 1021 can be fixedly connected to the expansion rack 1031 by bolts according to actual production needs, so as to increase the function and applicability of the feeding equipment 1. Multiple spray pipes 1032 are installed between the feeding racks 1021, and their nozzles are facing the transmission belt 1022. When necessary, the material on the transmission belt 1022 can be further sprayed to meet different processing requirements.

The specific features, structures, materials or characteristics described may be combined in a suitable manner in any one or more embodiments or examples. After reading this specification, those skilled in the art may make modifications, substitutions and variations to the embodiments without creative contribution as needed without departing from the principles and purpose of the present invention.
