Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of instant noodle packaging technology, and more particularly to an automatic instant noodle packaging device. Background Technology

[0002] In the packaged instant noodle food processing industry, automated conveying and stacking are core links connecting production and packaging processes. Their operational stability, efficiency, and adaptability directly determine the overall production line's capacity and product qualification rate. Because packaged instant noodles are lightweight and easily deformed, the conveying process must accommodate different placement postures (vertical and horizontal) to avoid problems such as jamming, tilting, and falling. Simultaneously, the stacking process must ensure neat product arrangement and stable layers, providing precise pre-treatment for subsequent boxing and packaging, and reducing manual intervention costs.

[0003] Existing conveying equipment is mostly of a fixed structure, only adaptable to a single placement posture of bagged instant noodles (vertical or horizontal), and cannot achieve synchronous conveying and adaptive pushing of products in different postures. When the production line needs to switch product placement modes, the conveyor track must be replaced or the equipment structure adjusted, which is cumbersome, time-consuming, and seriously affects production continuity. At the same time, the single pushing method cannot adjust the force for products in different postures; vertically placed products are prone to tipping over, and horizontally placed products are prone to separating and falling, making it difficult to meet diverse production needs. Therefore, how to provide an automatic instant noodle packing device is a problem that urgently needs to be solved by those skilled in the art. Summary of the Invention

[0004] One object of the present invention is to provide an automatic instant noodle packing device to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0015] Preferably, a central block is fixedly connected to the end of the external rod away from the sleeve plate, and a locking plate is fixedly connected to the end of the elastic telescopic rod away from the sleeve plate. A groove is provided in the center of the locking plate, and the inner wall of the groove is slidably adapted to the central block to realize the linkage guidance between the locking plate and the central block and ensure uniform force on the pushing material.

[0016] Preferably, the slotted plate is slidably fitted with a fitting frame, and a protrusion is fixedly connected to the outer side of the fitting frame. The protrusion fits into the slot fitting frame to achieve positioning of the fitting frame and the slotted plate.

[0017] Both sides of the fitting frame are provided with sliding grooves, and a sliding plate is slidably fitted inside the sliding groove. A circular groove is provided on the outer side of the sliding plate, and the circular groove is fitted with the end face of the locking plate, so that the locking plate drives the sliding plate to move along the sliding groove.

[0018] A conical plate is fixedly connected to the top of the center part of the skateboard. During operation, the skateboard is used to push the front part of the bagged instant noodles, and the center block is used to push the rear part of the bagged instant noodles, forming a segmented pushing structure to ensure the smoothness of the pushing.

[0019] Preferably, a fixed shaft is fixedly connected to the outer side of the skateboard, and an extension plate is rotatably mounted on the outer side of the fixed shaft. An elastic guide plate is fixedly connected to the outer end face of the extension plate, and the end of the elastic guide plate away from the extension plate is fixedly connected to the skateboard to provide elastic restoring force for the extension plate.

[0020] Both the fitting frame and the extended rotating plate are used for limiting and guiding the bagged instant noodles. A hollow block is fixedly installed on the outer end face of the fitting frame. An inclined block is slidably adapted inside the hollow block. The inclined end of the inclined block is squeezed and adapted to the conical plate.

[0021] A flexible strip is fixedly connected to the outer side of the inclined block, and the flexible strip is fixedly connected to the inside of the hollow block; when the conical plate moves, it squeezes the inclined block to extend outward, driving the extension plate to change from a vertical state to an inclined state, adapting to the instant noodle pushing posture.

[0022] Preferably, the collecting part includes a first electric push rod, which is fixedly installed on the outside of the guard plate. A pusher plate is fixedly connected to the end face of the output end of the first electric push rod. The outer end face of the pusher plate is on the same vertical plane as the outer side of the guard plate. It is used to push the stacked bagged instant noodles into the open packaging box. The outer side of the pusher plate has a notch.

[0023] A guide plate is fixedly connected to the top of the protective plate, and the guide plate is used to guide the instant noodles to the collection section.

[0024] Preferably, the collection unit further includes a frame, which is fixedly connected to the base plate, and a box is provided on the top of the frame for holding stacked instant noodles;

[0026] Preferably, the inside of the material placement platform is provided with a first cardboard, which is used to limit and fix the first batch of bagged instant noodles to ensure the flatness of the stack. The top of its inner cavity fits snugly with the top of the second electric push rod.

[0027] A second paperboard is provided on top of the first paperboard. The second paperboard is used to stabilize and limit the second batch of instant noodles being conveyed. A limit rod is fixedly connected to the top of the material placement platform. The limit rod is used to guide and limit the first and second paperboards to prevent the paperboards from shifting.

[0028] The beneficial effects of this invention are:

[0029] 1. The extended rotating plate and the elastic guide plate form a smooth transition surface to avoid jamming due to corner contact when pushing bagged instant noodles. At the same time, the triangular placement posture or squeezing force enhances the conveying stability and prevents tilting or derailment.

[0030] 2. It can flexibly realize the conveying of bagged instant noodles in both vertical and horizontal positions. Through the differentiated function of the segmented push structure and the extended turntable, it can adapt to the stable conveying needs of different placement positions. The interval arrangement of the interlocking frame and the slotted plate can increase the storage space, adapting to single-bag and multi-bag synchronous conveying scenarios, with good versatility.

[0031] 3. The hydraulic rod drive enables segmented pushing. By switching the conveying stages through the linkage of the locking plate, sliding plate and center block, the posture adjustment and stable pushing can be completed without manual intervention. The reset action of each component is automatically completed through mechanical linkage. With the precise power output of the stepper motor, the entire conveying and pushing process is automated, which greatly improves the work efficiency.

[0032] 4. During the pushing process, the linkage between the locking plate and the center block ensures that the pushing force is uniform and avoids excessive local stress that could cause the bagged instant noodles to deform; the flexibility of the elastic components can buffer the squeezing force, which not only meets the needs of stable conveying, but also protects the product packaging and reduces the scrap rate.

[0052] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. These drawings are simplified schematic diagrams, illustrating only the basic structure of the invention, and therefore only show the components relevant to the invention.

[0053] Please see Figures 1 to 15 The present invention provides a technical solution:

[0054] Example 1, such as Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the core load-bearing component is the base plate 1, which is welded from high-strength steel and serves as the supporting foundation for the entire device, stabilizing all functional components such as the pushing section 2, the collecting section 3, and the conveying assembly. The conveying assembly is the core transmission structure, including a support plate 4, a stepper motor 5, a central shaft 6, a sprocket 7, a conveyor chain 8, and a conveying plate 9. The support plate 4 is symmetrically fixed to the top of the base plate 1 with bolts, arranged vertically, providing installation support for the transmission components. The stepper motor 5 is fixed to the outside of one side of the support plate 4 with bolts, and its output end passes through the support plate 4 and is coaxially fixed to the central shaft 6 through a coupling, providing precise power for conveying.

[0055] The end of the central shaft 6 furthest from the stepper motor 5 is rotatably mounted on the support plate 4 on the other side via a bearing housing. The bearing housing is fixed to the support plate 4 with bolts to ensure smooth and unbiased rotation of the central shaft 6. The sprocket 7 is fixedly connected to the outside of the central shaft 6 via a flat key. The conveyor chain 8 meshes with the sprocket 7 to form a closed-loop transmission structure. The conveyor plate 9 is evenly fixed to the end face of the conveyor chain 8 with bolts and moves synchronously with the conveyor chain 8 to carry bagged instant noodles. The inner and outer sides of the conveyor chain 8 are fitted with sliding guard plates 10. The guard plates 10 are fixedly mounted to the outside of the bearing housing with bolts and fit the conveyor chain 8 in an arc shape. They not only guide and support the conveyor chain 8, but also provide protection to prevent the conveyor chain 8 from shifting or being interfered with by external debris during operation.

[0056] Example 2, as follows Figure 4 , Figure 5 , Figure 6 , Figure 7 , Figure 8 , Figure 9 , Figure 10 and Figure 11 As shown, the pushing section 2 includes a slotted plate 21, a support plate 23, a hydraulic rod 24, and a linkage pushing component. The slotted plate 21 is fixedly installed on the top of the conveyor plate 9 by bolts, and its inner end face has a slot 22, which provides a base for the fitting and positioning of the fitting frame 20. The fitting frame 20 is slidably fitted into the slotted plate 21, and its outer side is integrally formed with a protrusion. This protrusion is precisely fitted into the slot 22, realizing the rapid positioning and fixing of the fitting frame 20 and the slotted plate 21, and preparing for the subsequent placement of bagged instant noodles.

[0057] By interlocking the fitting frame 20 with the slotted plate 21 at intervals, i.e., the arrangement of "fitting frame 20 and slotted plate 21 integrated - slotted plate 21 - fitting frame 20 and slotted plate 21 integrated", the storage space is effectively increased; the bagged instant noodles can be placed horizontally on the central slotted plate 21, and the horizontally placed bagged instant noodles can be pushed and conveyed by the synchronous action of the two sets of sliding plates 202, the locking plate 29 and the central block 28.

[0058] Both sides of the fitting frame 20 are provided with horizontal sliding grooves 201. The sliding plate 202 is adapted to slide inside the sliding groove 201. The sliding plate 202 can move back and forth along the sliding groove 201. The outer side of the sliding plate 202 is provided with a circular groove for engaging and linkage with the locking plate 29. A tapered plate 203 is bolted to the top of the center of the slide plate 202. A fixed shaft 204 is welded to the outside of the slide plate 202. An extension plate 205 is rotatably mounted on the outside of the fixed shaft 204 via a bearing. The extension plate 205 can rotate around the fixed shaft 204. An elastic guide plate 206 is bolted to the outer end face of the extension plate 205. The end of the elastic guide plate 206 away from the extension plate 205 is fixedly connected to the slide plate 202. In the initial state, the extension plate 205 is kept vertical, providing elastic restoring force. At the same time, the extension plate 205 and the elastic guide plate 206 extend outward from the fitting frame 20. At this time, the elastic guide plate 206 will play a transitional guiding role, smoothly transitioning the vertical surface of the fitting frame 20 to the inclined surface of the extension plate 205, effectively avoiding the problem of bagged instant noodles getting stuck due to contact with protruding corners during the pushing process.

[0059] The reset of the slide plate 202 is achieved by the fitting of the locking plate 29 with the circular grooves at both ends of the slide plate 202. That is, when the hydraulic rod 24 retracts, due to the fitting relationship, the locking plate 29 drives the slide plate 202 to move backward along the slide groove 201 until the initial position. Subsequently, the contraction force of the hydraulic rod 24 causes the locking plate 29 to disengage from the circular grooves at both ends of the slide plate 202, thereby realizing the reset of the slide plate 202.

[0060] A hollow block 207 is bolted to the outer end face of the fitting frame 20. An inclined block 208 slides inside the hollow block 207, and the inclined end of the inclined block 208 is pressed against the tapered plate 203. A flexible strip 209 is bolted to the outer side of the inclined block 208, and the other end of the flexible strip 209 is fixedly connected to the inside of the hollow block 207, providing a restoring force for the inclined block 208. A support plate 23 is bolted to the base plate 1, and a hydraulic rod 24 is bolted to its top. The output end of the hydraulic rod 24 is connected to an external rod 25 via a coupling. A sleeve plate 26 is welded to the outer side of the external rod 25, and a second external rod and an elastic telescopic rod 27 are welded to the outer side of the sleeve plate 26.

[0061] 1. The vertically placed bagged instant noodles belong to the first conveying section on the conveying path of the interlocking frame 20, that is, the bagged instant noodles complete the first conveying section by pushing them vertically; on the conveying path of the extended rotating plate 205 after deflection, it belongs to the second conveying section. In this conveying section, the tops of the two bags of instant noodles are crossed to form a triangle and are pushed and conveyed. The stability of the triangle is used to increase the stability of the instant noodles during the conveying process, which can prevent tilting or derailment from the conveying track due to uneven force or equipment vibration.

[0062] 2. The first conveying stage of the horizontally placed bagged instant noodles is the same as 1, while the second conveying stage is only different in that the effect applied by the extended rotating plate 205 is different, that is, a certain squeezing force is applied to the horizontally placed bagged instant noodles to prevent problems such as falling and separation during the conveying process.

[0063] A central block 28 is welded and fixed to the end of the external rod 25 away from the sleeve plate 26. A locking plate 29 is bolted to the end of the elastic telescopic rod 27 away from the sleeve plate 26. A groove is formed in the center of the locking plate 29, and the inner wall of the groove is slidably adapted to the central block 28 to realize the linkage guidance between the locking plate 29 and the central block 28, ensuring uniform force during material pushing. The end face of the locking plate 29 fits into the circular groove on the outer side of the slide plate 202, which can drive the slide plate 202 to move along the slide groove 201 to form a segmented pushing structure.

[0064] The first conveying section involves the simultaneous pushing of the bagged instant noodles by the locking plate 29, the sliding plate 202, and the center block 28. All three components have elastic contact surfaces with the bagged instant noodles, which can buffer the squeezing pressure, meet the requirements of stable conveying, and protect the product packaging. Due to the limiting effect of the chute 201, the locking plate 29 and the sliding plate 202 are obstructed and simultaneously compress the elastic telescopic rod 27. Therefore, the second conveying section relies on the center block 28 passing through the groove on the surface of the locking plate 29 to push and convey the bagged instant noodles.

[0065] Example 3, as follows Figure 1 , Figure 12 , Figure 13 , Figure 14 and Figure 15 As shown, the collecting unit 3 includes a first electric push rod 31, a pusher plate 32, a guide plate 34, a frame 35, a second electric push rod 37, and a placing platform 39. The first electric push rod 31 is fixedly installed on the outside of the guard plate 10 by bolts, and the pusher plate 32 is fixedly connected to its output end face by bolts. The outer end face of the pusher plate 32 is on the same vertical plane as the outer side of the guard plate 10, and is used to push the stacked bagged instant noodles into the open packaging box; the outer side of the pusher plate 32 has a notch 33 to match the position of the limiting rod 301 and avoid interference.

[0066] A guide plate 34 is welded to the top of the guard plate 10. The guide plate 34 is horizontally arranged and connected to the extension rotating plate 205 to accurately guide the instant noodles to the placement platform 39 of the collection section 3. The frame 35 is bolted to the base plate 1, and a box 36 is placed on its top. The box 36 is used to hold the stacked instant noodles. A second electric push rod 37 is bolted to the top of the frame 35. A rod sleeve 38 is fixedly connected to the outer side of the output end of the second electric push rod 37 through an interference fit. The top of the rod sleeve 38 abuts against the placement platform 39.

[0067] The bottom of the feeding platform 39 has a fitting groove, and the output end of the second electric push rod 37 slides into the fitting groove. The second electric push rod 37 extends out of the fitting groove and fits against the first cardboard 30. The purpose of this is to stabilize the instant noodles already stacked inside the first cardboard 30 and prevent tilting or separation due to external vibration. The feeding platform 39 is raised and lowered by the second electric push rod 37 to collect different batches of bagged instant noodles. The inside of the feeding platform 39 is equipped with a first cardboard 30, which is used to limit and fix the first batch of bagged instant noodles to ensure flat stacking. The top of its inner cavity fits against the top of the second electric push rod 37. A second cardboard 302 is set on the top of the first cardboard 30 to stabilize and limit the second batch of instant noodles. The top of the feeding platform 39 is fixedly connected to a limit rod 301 by welding to guide and limit the two cardboards and prevent cardboard deviation.

[0068] Working principle: During operation, the stepper motor 5 drives the central shaft 6 to rotate, and the central shaft 6 drives the sprocket 7 to move synchronously with the conveyor chain 8. The conveyor plate 9 moves smoothly with the conveyor chain 8, carrying bagged instant noodles to achieve intermittent and precise conveying, in order to adapt to the rhythm requirements of subsequent pushing and stacking.

[0069] Before conveying the bagged instant noodles, the protrusions on the surface of the fitting frame 20 are aligned with the slots 22 of the slotted plate 21 to secure them together. Then, two vertically placed bags of instant noodles are placed between the two fitting frames 20, maintaining a preset gap between them. The hydraulic rod 24 is activated, driving the external rod 25, the second external rod fixed to the external rod 25 via the sleeve plate 26, and the elastic telescopic rod 27 to move forward synchronously. The locking plate 29 connected to the other end of the elastic telescopic rod 27 is fitted into the circular groove on the end face of the slide plate 202, thereby pushing the slide plate 202 forward along the slide groove 201, simultaneously driving the locking plate 29 to push the two bags of instant noodles. At the same time, the extension plate 205 gradually extends out from the fitting frame 20.

[0070] When the slide plate 202 moves to the extreme position at the front end of the slide groove 201, the tail of the bagged instant noodles just reaches the front end of the slide groove 201, and the extension plate 205 is released from the fitting frame 20 simultaneously with the slide plate 202. At this time, the conical plate 203 fixed on the slide plate 202 is inserted into the hollow block 207, generating an outward squeezing force on the inclined block 208; after being squeezed, the inclined block 208 extends outward, squeezing the extension plate 205 and stretching the tough strip 209. The extension plate 205 deflects around the fixed axis 204 and twists the elastic guide plate 206, thereby pushing the upper part of the vertically placed bagged instant noodles, so that the bottom ends of the two bags of instant noodles remain fixed and the top ends are relatively close together, forming a triangular arrangement.

[0071] Hydraulic rod 24 continues to extend, slide plate 202 and locking plate 29 are limited by slide groove 201 and cannot move forward, elastic telescopic rod 27 retracts; external rod 25 and second external rod push center block 28 through locking plate 29 to continue moving forward, pushing bagged instant noodles to the bottom of the inner cavity of material placement platform 39.

[0072] The external mechanical gripper is activated, causing the first cardboard 30 to move downwards along the limiting rod 301, pressing and wrapping the bagged instant noodles on the placement table 39. Simultaneously, the second electric push rod 37 is driven downwards to a set position, aligning the top of the first cardboard 30 with the tops of the conveyor plate 9 and the guard plate 10, pre-processing for the second batch of instant noodles. When the second batch of instant noodles moves to the corresponding station of the pushing section 2 via the conveyor plate 9, the operation of the pushing section 2 is repeated, transferring the second batch of instant noodles onto the first cardboard 30. Then, the external mechanical gripper places the second cardboard 302 above the first cardboard 30, completing the pressing and wrapping of the second batch of instant noodles. Reactivate the second electric push rod 37 to move the rod sleeve 38 fixed to the outside of its output end to the top of the fixed end, and adjust the material placement platform 39 to the same height as the box 36; finally activate the first electric push rod 31 to drive the pusher plate 32 connected to its output end to simultaneously push the first cardboard 30, the second cardboard 302 and the two batches of instant noodles, so that the three of them enter the box 36 together, realizing the automatic boxing of the two batches of instant noodles.
