Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of food production technology, specifically to an automated conveying device for food safety production. Background Technology

[0002] Food conveyors are indispensable automated equipment in food production, processing, and packaging. They are mainly used for material transfer, sorting, cleaning, and drying, and have advantages such as improving production efficiency, reducing manual intervention, and ensuring food hygiene and safety.

[0003] When the conveyor is working, food is usually unloaded in batches at the starting point of the conveyor belt. This can cause congestion at the starting point, causing the food to come into contact with the side support structure of the conveyor belt. This can easily contaminate the surface of the food, and the friction with the support structure can easily damage the surface of the food, resulting in production losses. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide an automated conveying device for food safety production, thereby solving the problems mentioned in the background section. To achieve the above objective, this invention provides the following technical solution: It includes a machine base, a drive motor fixedly mounted on the side of the machine base, mounting frames symmetrically arranged on the side of the drive motor, a conveyor belt rotatably mounted on the side of the mounting frames that are close to each other, the conveyor belt being drivenly connected to the output end of the drive motor, and a material gathering mechanism, a slag removal mechanism, a water spray valve, and a dryer respectively arranged on the end of the mounting frames away from the drive motor.

[0005] The material gathering mechanism includes a pulley assembly connected to a conveyor belt. One end of the pulley assembly has a portion of a conical wheel assembly. A turntable is fixedly connected to the top of the conical wheel assembly. The turntable is rotatably connected to a mounting frame. A rotating block is fixedly connected to the top of the turntable on a side offset from its axis. A push plate is slidably connected to the mounting frame on the outside of the rotating block. A guide groove is formed through the surface of the push plate perpendicular to the top of the turntable. The rotating block is slidably disposed in the guide groove.

[0006] A swing arm is movably mounted on the outer wall of the mounting frame. A control rod abuts against the top of the swing arm. The control rod is laterally slidably connected to the mounting frame. A swing frame is rotatably connected to the top of the inner wall of the mounting frame. A guide belt is rollably connected to the middle of the swing frame. A guide ring is fixedly connected to the top of the end of the swing frame away from the connection with the mounting frame. The guide ring is annular and has a through groove. One end of the control rod is slidably mounted in the guide ring. The control rod controls the swing frame to swing towards the middle of the conveyor belt with its connection point with the mounting frame as the axis.

[0007] Preferably, the bottom of the guide ring is provided with a second set of pulleys that are tactilely connected to the swing frame. A gear is movably connected to the top of one end of the second set of pulleys. A rack is meshed on one side of the gear. The rack is elastically connected to the mounting frame.

[0008] Preferably, the surface of the end of the second pulley assembly where the gear is mounted has an internal tooth opening, and the bottom of the gear is hinged to a retaining plate by a tension spring, and the bottom of the gear is rotatably connected to one end of the second pulley assembly.

[0009] Preferably, a lifting rod is fixedly connected to one side of the push plate.

[0010] Preferably, a horizontal shaft is slidably provided at the bottom of the mounting frame, the horizontal shaft is located at the bottom of the conveyor belt, and a wedge plate is fixedly connected to the top of one side of the horizontal shaft, the bottom surface of the wedge plate abutting against the lifting rod.

[0011] Preferably, an outer sleeve is fixedly connected to the center of the horizontal shaft, the outer sleeve is hollow, and a slag discharge port is opened through the top surface of the outer sleeve.

[0012] Preferably, the side of the slag discharge port is provided with a protrusion, which is in movable contact with the lower surface of the conveyor belt, and a movable plate is movably installed at the bottom of the outer sleeve.

[0013] Preferably, the water spray valve is used to rinse the surface of the conveyor belt after slag removal.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows:

[0015] 1. In this invention, when the equipment is running, the drive motor drives the turntable to rotate through the pulley set and the conical wheel set, causing the swing frame to swing the guide belt toward the middle of the conveyor belt. The two work together to accurately gather the dispersed food to the middle of the conveyor belt, preventing the food from continuously contacting the support structure of the conveyor belt and causing contamination, and facilitating subsequent processing.

[0016] 2. In this invention, during the gathering process, the guide belt rolls in the direction of food conveying, which drives the food to roll forward at an accelerated speed, effectively improving the conveying speed and preventing food from congesting at the gathering point, thus improving the food conveying efficiency;

[0017] 3. In this invention, when the push plate slides back and forth, the lifting rod contacts the inclined wedge plate and pushes the horizontal shaft to move, so that the slag outlet of the outer sleeve is close to the lower surface of the conveyor belt. By lifting the conveyor belt and then letting it fall, it is shaken. In conjunction with the protrusion on the side of the slag outlet, food residue on the conveyor belt can be effectively blocked and removed. Furthermore, by shaking off the residue and then rinsing the surface of the conveyor belt, the cleanliness can be improved and the residue splashing can be prevented. Attached Figure Description

[0026] Please see Figures 1 to 4 The present invention provides a technical solution: including a machine base 1, a drive motor 2 fixedly installed on the side of the machine base 1, a mounting frame 3 symmetrically arranged on the side of the drive motor 2, a conveyor belt 4 rotatably installed on the side of the mounting frame 3 that is close to each other, the conveyor belt 4 being connected to the output end of the drive motor 2, and a material gathering mechanism 5, a slag removal mechanism 6, a water spray valve 7 and a dryer 8 respectively arranged on the end of the mounting frame 3 away from the drive motor 2.

[0027] The material gathering mechanism 5 includes a pulley set 501 that is connected to the conveyor belt 4 for transmission. One end of the pulley set 501 is provided with a part of a conical wheel set 502. The top of the conical wheel set 502 is fixedly connected to a turntable 503. The turntable 503 is rotatably connected to the mounting frame 3. A rotating block 504 is fixedly connected to the top of the turntable 503 on the side opposite to its axis. A push plate 505 that is slidably connected to the mounting frame 3 is provided on the outside of the rotating block 504. A guide groove 506 is opened through the surface of the push plate 505 perpendicular to the top of the turntable 503. The rotating block 504 is slidably disposed in the guide groove 506.

[0028] A swing arm 507 is movably mounted on the outer wall of the mounting frame 3. The top of the swing arm 507 abuts against a control rod 508. The control rod 508 is laterally slidably connected to the mounting frame 3. A swing frame 509 is rotatably connected to the top of the inner wall of the mounting frame 3. A guide belt 510 is slidably connected to the middle of the swing frame 509. A guide ring 511 is fixedly connected to the top of the end of the swing frame 509 away from the mounting frame 3. The guide ring 511 is annular and has a through groove. One end of the control rod 508 is slidably mounted in the guide ring 511. The control rod 508 controls the swing frame 509 to swing towards the middle of the conveyor belt 4 with the connection point between it and the mounting frame 3 as the axis.

[0029] The bottom of the guide ring 511 is provided with a second pulley group 512 that is tactilely connected to the swing frame 509. A gear 513 is movably connected to the top of one end of the second pulley group 512. A rack 514 is meshed on one side of the gear 513. The rack 514 is elastically connected to the mounting frame 3.

[0030] The surface of one end of the pulley assembly 512 on which the gear 513 is mounted has an internal toothed opening 515. The bottom of the gear 513 is hinged to a retaining plate 516 by a tension spring. The bottom of the gear 513 is rotatably connected to one end of the pulley assembly 512.

[0031] A lifting rod 517 is fixedly connected to one side of the push plate 505;

[0032] A horizontal shaft 601 is slidably installed at the bottom of the mounting frame 3. The horizontal shaft 601 is installed at the bottom of the conveyor belt 4. An inclined wedge plate 602 is fixedly connected to the top of one side of the horizontal shaft 601. The bottom surface of the inclined wedge plate 602 abuts against the lifting rod 517.

[0033] A sleeve 603 is fixedly connected to the center of the horizontal shaft 601. The sleeve 603 is hollow and has a slag discharge port 604 through its top surface.

[0034] The side of the slag discharge port 604 is provided with a protrusion 605, which is in active contact with the lower surface of the conveyor belt 4, and a movable plate 606 is movably installed at the bottom of the outer sleeve 603.

[0035] Water spray valve 7 is used to rinse the surface of conveyor belt 4 after slag removal;

[0036] In this embodiment, by first physically removing large pieces of residue and solid particles, it is possible to avoid the residue from forming a viscous substance after mixing with water, thus reducing the cleaning burden during subsequent rinsing. If water is sprayed directly, the liquid may cause the residue to adhere to the gaps in the conveyor belt 4, resulting in a longer time or stronger water pressure required for removal, which is less efficient.

[0037] The method of use and advantages of this invention: The automatic conveying equipment for food safety production operates as follows:

[0038] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 , Figure 6 As shown:

[0039] S1: When the drive motor 2 drives the conveyor belt 4 to transport food, the power is transmitted to the conical wheel assembly 502 through the pulley group 501, which in turn drives the turntable 503 to rotate. When the turntable 503 rotates, the rotating block 504 on its side off the axis slides in the guide groove 506 of the push plate 505, causing the push plate 505 to slide back and forth on the mounting frame 3. At the same time, the rotation of the turntable 503 also drives the control rod 508 to slide in the guide ring 511. The control rod 508 controls the swing frame 509 to swing towards the middle of the conveyor belt 4 with its connection point with the mounting frame 3 as the axis, so that the guide belt 510 gradually approaches the middle of the conveyor belt 4. The back-and-forth sliding of the push plate 505 and the swing of the guide belt 510 work together to gradually gather the food scattered on the conveyor belt 4 to the center. The conveyor belt 4 rotates in the middle through the meshing of gear 513 and rack 514, causing the guide belt 510 to roll in the direction of food conveying, thus accelerating the conveying speed and preventing congestion at the gathering point. During the operation of the swing frame 509, the meshing of gear 513 and rack 514 causes the clamping plate 516 to clamp the inner tooth opening 515, thereby driving the guide belt 510 to roll. When the swing frame 509 returns to its original position, gear 513 flips, and the clamping plate 516 is continuously compressed and pressed against the bottom surface of gear 513 through the surface of the inner tooth opening 515, without contacting the inner tooth opening 515. This prevents the pulley group 2 512 from rotating, so that the guide belt 510 will not roll when the swing frame 509 returns to its original position, thus preventing the reverse conveying of food materials.

[0040] S2: When the push plate 505 reciprocates, the lifting rod 517 fixedly connected to one side of it will move with the push plate 505. When the lifting rod 517 contacts the inclined wedge plate 602 on the top side of the horizontal shaft 601, due to the inclined surface structure of the inclined wedge plate 602, it will push the horizontal shaft 601 to slide at the bottom of the mounting frame 3. When the horizontal shaft 601 slides, the outer sleeve 603 fixedly connected to it will move accordingly. The slag outlet 604 on the top surface of the outer sleeve 603 will gradually approach the lower surface of the conveyor belt 4, lifting the conveyor belt 4 upward and then falling down, causing the conveyor belt 4 to be shaken. The protrusion 605 on the side of the slag outlet 604 will make active contact with the lower surface of the conveyor belt 4. When the food residue on the conveyor belt 4 moves to this point with the conveyor belt 4, it will be blocked by the protrusion 605 and fall into the outer sleeve 603 through the slag outlet 604. The movable plate 606 at the bottom of the outer sleeve 603 can be opened periodically to discharge the collected residue, thereby achieving the removal of food residue on the conveyor belt 4.

[0041] S3: After the slag removal is completed, the conveyor belt 4 continues to run. When it runs under the water spray valve 7, the water spray valve 7 is activated to rinse the surface of the conveyor belt 4, cleaning away any remaining impurities and stains. After rinsing, the conveyor belt 4 continues to move forward. When it passes the dryer 8, the dryer 8 works, using hot air and other methods to dry the moisture on the surface of the conveyor belt 4, restoring the conveyor belt 4 to a dry and clean state so that it can continue to carry out food conveying work.
