Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of food processing, in particular to a food processing tray loading and unloading device. Background Art

[0002] As people's living standards continue to improve and demand for various foods grows, the food processing industry is showing a trend towards large-scale and automated development. Food processing pallets play a vital role in every aspect of food processing, from the temporary storage of raw materials and their circulation during processing to the packaging and transportation of finished products. They not only support food materials of varying shapes and weights, ensuring their orderly movement along the production line, but also facilitate categorization, management, and operation, helping to improve the efficiency and standardization of the entire food processing process.

[0003] Traditional food processing tray loading and unloading devices can only unload materials from a single tray in sequence. After processing each tray, the corresponding process must be restarted or some preparatory actions must be performed before the next tray can be unloaded. For example, when transferring processed food from the tray to the packaging stage, each tray must wait for the unloading of one tray to be completed before the next tray can be unloaded. It is impossible to complete the unloading of multiple trays at once like batch processing. This makes the entire unloading process very cumbersome, consumes a lot of unnecessary time, and seriously affects production efficiency. Modern food processing companies usually adopt a large-scale, continuous production model, and the production line may need to handle dozens or even hundreds of trays per hour. However, the single-pallet unloading method cannot keep up with this production pace, resulting in trays piling up in the processing stage waiting for unloading. Subsequent packaging, warehousing, and other links will also stagnate due to untimely material supply. This makes it impossible to achieve an efficient and smooth production chain, limiting the improvement of the company's overall production capacity and hindering the company's ability to obtain greater economic benefits in the market.

[0014] Preferably, a strip groove is provided on the top of the insert block, and a groove is provided inside the positioning block.

[0015] (3) Beneficial effects Compared with the prior art, the present invention provides a food processing tray loading and unloading device, which has the following beneficial effects: 1. The food processing tray loading and unloading device is set up with movable components. When unloading, the long rod is driven to slide by manually operating the control lever. When the long rod slides, the restriction of the long rod on the positioning plate is released, so that the support block swings downward under the action of gravity. When the support block swings downward, the processing tray will fall on the top of the unloading plate as a whole and be placed, preventing the staff from unloading only a single tray during the unloading process, reducing labor intensity and improving work efficiency.

[0016] 2. The food processing tray loading and unloading device is set up using a fixed component. When the food processing tray loading and unloading device is in use, the material table needs to be moved to the top of the transport frame first, so that the insertion shaft on the surface of the material table is inserted into the limiting block. When the insertion shaft is inserted into the inside of the limiting block, the limiting block will first resist the insertion rod, and when the insertion shaft moves to the groove opened inside the positioning block, it will be restricted at the groove of the positioning block, preventing the food processing tray loading and unloading device from shaking when in use, causing the food processing tray placed on the material table to fall or be damaged, affecting the normal material flow of food processing, and may also cause safety accidents in severe cases, thereby improving the stability of equipment use and reducing safety hazards.

[0017] 3. The food processing tray loading and unloading device is set up with a limiting component. By manually lifting the insert plate upwards and pushing the insert block to move toward the surface close to the limiting block, when the insert block moves, it will drive the movement of the resistance bar. When the resistance bar moves, it will interfere with the surface of the insert rod, so that the insert rod moves out from the inside of the positioning block and releases the restriction of the insert rod on the positioning block. After the restriction is released, the material table can be pulled to move by operating the handle. When the material table moves, it can prevent the staff from manually carrying the pallet to the next process, thereby improving the convenience of transportation and work progress.

[0028] Working principle: The food processing pallet loading and unloading device is adapted to the intelligent conveying system of the agricultural product workshop, the special equipment for intelligent transportation of agricultural products, and the manufacturing of mechanized agricultural and gardening machinery have great benefits for food processing. When in use, the material platform 2 is firmly connected to the transport rack 1 by the fixing component 6, and the logistics conveyor line built by the transport rack 1 carries the pallet for transportation. When unloading is required, the movable component 5 is used to realize the smooth unloading action of the food processing pallet, and the limiting component 7 is responsible for controlling the connection and disassembly status between the transport rack 1 and the material platform 2, so that the material platform 2 can move at the appropriate time to complete the entire unloading and unloading process. When started, The food processing tray can be placed on the material plate 9 and the material plate 9 can be driven to move upward by starting the telescopic cylinder 8. When the material plate 9 moves upward, the food processing tray will be driven to move upward. When the food processing tray moves upward, it will first come into contact with the arc-shaped cross-section at the bottom end of the support block 51, causing the support block 51 to swing upward. When the food processing tray moves to the top of the support block 51, the support block 51 will be reset under the action of the spiral spring 1 52, causing the plane at the top of the support block 51 to move to the bottom of the food processing tray. When placed, the telescopic cylinder 8 drives the material plate 9 to move downward, so that the food processing tray is placed on the support block 51. The material is stored at the top of the tray, breaking through the limitation of single tray unloading, reducing labor intensity, meeting the high efficiency demand of workshop logistics transportation, and improving the coordinated efficiency of unloading and loading links and the overall production line. When unloading, the long rod 54 is driven to slide by manually operating the control rod 56. When the long rod 54 slides, the restriction of the long rod 54 on the positioning plate 53 is released, so that the support block 51 swings downward under the action of gravity. When the support block 51 swings downward, the processing tray falls, and when the long rod 54 slides, it also drives the sliding of the moving block 58. When the moving block 58 slides, it pulls the slide bar 515 to slide on the surface of the rotating shaft 59, driving the rotation of the rotating shaft 59. When the rotating shaft 59 rotates, it will drive the rotation of the gear 510. When the gear 510 rotates, it will drive the rack 511 to slide. When the rack 511 slides, it will drive the unloading plate 512 to move to the bottom end of the processing tray, so that the processing tray falls on the top of the unloading plate 512 for placement. When the unloading plate 512 moves, it will also swing downward through the resistance plate 513 to resist the support plate 514. When the support plate 514 swings downward, it will support the ground, so that it is restricted when unloading. Through the setting of the movable component 5, it is prevented that the staff can only unload materials for a single pallet during the unloading process, thereby reducing labor intensity and improving work efficiency.

[0029] When the food processing tray loading and unloading device is in use, the material table 2 is first required to be moved to the top of the transport frame 1, so that the insertion shaft 61 on the surface of the material table 2 is inserted into the limiting block 66. When the insertion shaft 61 is inserted into the inside of the limiting block 66, the limiting block 66 will first resist the insertion rod 65, and when the insertion shaft 61 moves to the groove 670 opened inside the positioning block 67, the insertion rod 65 will be reset through the fixing rod 62 under the action of the movable spring 64, so that the insertion rod 65 is inserted into the groove 670 of the positioning block 67 for restriction, preventing the food processing tray loading and unloading device from shaking when in use, causing the food processing tray placed on the material table 2 to fall or be damaged, affecting the normal material flow of food processing, and may even cause safety accidents in severe cases. By setting the fixing component 6, the stability of the equipment can be improved and safety hazards can be reduced.

[0030] When the transport rack 1 and the material table 2 are disassembled, the insert plate 71 can be manually lifted upwards, and the insert block 75 can be pushed to move toward the surface close to the limiting block 66. When the insert block 75 moves, it will drive the movement of the interference bar 76. When the interference bar 76 moves, it will interfere with the surface of the insert rod 65, so that the insert rod 65 moves out from the inside of the positioning block 67 and releases the restriction of the insert rod 65 on the positioning block 67. When the restriction is released, the material table 2 can be pulled to move by operating the handle 57. When the material table 2 moves, it can prevent the staff from manually carrying the pallet to the next process, thereby improving the convenience of transportation and the progress of work.
