Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of vermicelli production technology, specifically a conveying device and method for unloading vermicelli onto trays in a vermicelli production line. Background Technology

[0002] After the raw materials for rice noodles (such as sweet potato starch and potato starch) are mixed into a slurry, the slurry is evenly spread on the conveyor belt through a vacuum feeding system and enters the high-temperature rapid steaming section (temperature about 95-100℃) of the steamer for rapid shaping. Then it enters the slow steaming section (temperature about 85-90℃) to complete the gelatinization and shaping. After steaming, the rice noodles need to undergo low-temperature aging treatment to enhance their toughness. The aged rice noodles are mixed with additional materials and cut into uniform noodle strips, such as eel noodles, by a die-cutting device. Finally, they are coiled and loaded onto trays for the next step of processing. Currently, the automatic tray dropping device of the noodle machine is usually set below the discharge port, with a rotating turntable to collect the falling noodles coiled on the turntable. Finally, the noodles are cut and packaged.

[0003] A prior art patent application (CN117682343A) describes a vermicelli conveying device for a self-cooking vermicelli production line. The device includes a base, a support mounted on top of the base, a conveyor belt and a geared motor internally mounted on the support, a bracket and a mounting frame mounted on the right side of the support, and an active dispersing mechanism on the top of the mounting frame. This device achieves the function of evenly dispersing vermicelli by rotatably mounting a rotating shaft, connecting column, connecting plate, and connecting sleeve on a fixed base. Driven by a transmission belt, the connecting sleeve rotates counterclockwise around its own axis. Two sets of symmetrically distributed dispersing grooves (one and two) on its outer surface cause the vermicelli accumulated on the outer surface of the connecting sleeve to move evenly towards the front and rear sides of the outer surface. A guide cylinder supports and guides the evenly dispersed vermicelli, thus achieving synchronous and uniform dispersion of the vermicelli falling onto the surface of the connecting sleeve.

[0004] While the aforementioned comparative documents achieve the goal of synchronously and evenly dispersing the vermicelli falling onto the surface of the connecting sleeve, they cannot solve the problem of messy vermicelli stacking after falling onto the tray. Vermicelli falling onto the tray usually only involves rotating the tray to stack the vermicelli. Although this eliminates the need for manual winding and improves efficiency, the center of the winding vermicelli is prone to collapsing inward, causing the winding diameter to gradually decrease. The vermicelli on the inner side is very easy to become messy and tangled. When cutting is required, manual sorting is often still necessary, increasing the subsequent workload and ultimately preventing the vermicelli from being automatically straightened into place. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a conveying device and method for unloading rice noodles into trays in a rice noodle production line to neatly coil and promote flat spreading, so as to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: a conveying device for unloading rice noodles in a production line, comprising a base, a turntable rotatably connected to the top of the base via a drive motor, a rice noodle machine body fixedly connected to the edge of the base, a mold mounted on the upper side of the rice noodle machine body, and a fan mounted below the mold, and further comprising:

[0007] A uniform feeding mechanism is located on top of the turntable;

[0008] A dispersing mechanism, which is connected to a uniform feeding mechanism;

[0009] The uniform feeding mechanism includes a housing fixed to the center of a turntable, a disc abutting the inner cavity of the housing, the bottom of the disc being rotatably connected to the center of the turntable, and a spiral sleeve fixed to the top of the disc, the spiral sleeve rotating through the center of the housing.

[0010] Preferably, the uniform feeding mechanism further includes a mounting frame fixed to the top of the base, a protective cover fixed to the middle edge of the mounting frame, a cylinder fixed to the middle of the mounting frame, and a push rod fixed to the output end of the cylinder.

[0011] Preferably, a protrusion is fixed to the end of the push rod, and the push rod slides against the spiral groove of the spiral sleeve through the protrusion.

[0012] Preferably, the top of the disc is provided with several arc-shaped grooves at equal intervals, and the disc is slidably connected to several sliding columns through the arc-shaped grooves, with a telescopic plate fixed to the top of each sliding column.

[0013] Preferably, the outer wall of the telescopic plate slides through the side wall of the casing, and each end of the telescopic plate is fixedly connected to an arc-shaped push plate, the bottom of which slides against the surface of the turntable.

[0014] Preferably, a horizontal plate is fixedly connected to the side wall of the push rod, the end of the horizontal plate is slidably connected to the inner side wall of the mounting frame, an arc-shaped cutter is fixedly connected to the bottom of the horizontal plate, a corrugated pressure plate is rotatably connected to the edge of the turntable, a rubber ball is engaged at the end of the corrugated pressure plate, and the bottom of the rubber ball is fixedly connected to the turntable.

[0015] Preferably, the dispersing mechanism includes a U-shaped frame fixed to the side wall of the vermicelli machine body, with sliding grooves on both sides of the U-shaped frame, and a pressure rod and a toothed comb plate fixed to the lower side wall of the vermicelli machine body, both of which are inclined toward the center of the turntable.

[0016] Preferably, both sides of the U-shaped frame are slidably connected to sliders via grooves, and the sidewalls of the sliders are elastically slidably connected to the inner cavity of the U-shaped frame. The two sliders are jointly fixed to an arc rod, the protrusion of which faces the direction of the fan. A pressing block is fixedly connected to the middle of one slider, and the pressing block slides through the sidewall of the U-shaped frame.

[0017] Preferably, the outer wall of the extrusion block abuts against a toothed rod, the outer wall of the toothed rod is slidably connected to a rod sleeve, the side wall of the rod sleeve is rotatably connected to a U-shaped frame, and the end of the toothed rod is rotatably connected to the middle of the horizontal plate.

[0018] This application also proposes a method of using a conveyor device for unloading rice noodles in a production line, the method of which is as follows:

[0019] S1. Vermicelli end positioning: After processing by the vermicelli machine, the vermicelli enters the mold to be cut into strips. First, the vermicelli is pushed and laid flat by the arc rod. Then, the vermicelli passes through the pressure rod from below and then passes evenly through the comb plate from above. Finally, it reaches the top of the turntable, where the end of the vermicelli is pressed down by the wave pressure plate and locked by the rubber ball to complete the positioning.

[0020] S2, Fan Dispersion: The cylinder drives the push rod to move up and down axially back and forth, and through the horizontal plate, it drives one end of the toothed rod to swing up and down, causing the arc rod to vibrate back and forth. The fans on the arc rod vibrate and shake the fans apart, and the fan blows away some of the hot air and water vapor.

[0021] S3. Vermicelli Coiling and Sorting: After positioning, the vermicelli is continuously extruded from one side and combed by the toothed comb plate, while the other side rotates continuously on the turntable, allowing the vermicelli to be laid flat and stacked in a circle. With the push rod moving up and down axially back and forth, the arc-shaped push plate at the center moves in an expanding and contracting motion from the center point of the turntable to tighten the inside of the coiled vermicelli. There is also an arc-shaped cutter that intermittently abuts against the outer edge of the turntable to cut off any accidentally broken vermicelli from the edge of the turntable, thus sorting the vermicelli.

[0022] S4. Vermicelli Cutting: When the vermicelli is about to reach the height of the curved push plate, use a knife to cut the vermicelli vertically to obtain vermicelli of uniform length. After removing the current batch, continue to coil the next batch of vermicelli.

[0023] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows:

[0024] This invention, through the combination of structures such as an arc-shaped pusher plate, a spiral sleeve, and a wave-shaped pressure plate, facilitates the initial positioning and orderly winding of vermicelli. Compared to traditional winding methods where the vermicelli collapses in the middle, this device drives the pusher rod to move up and down, and the protrusion at its end continuously squeezes the spiral sleeve to perform reciprocating rotation. Finally, the arc-shaped pusher plate moves outward from the center point of the turntable, which is responsible for tightening the inside of each turn of vermicelli. This works in conjunction with the toothed comb plate to wind the vermicelli evenly. At the same time, the edge of the arc-shaped cutter intermittently abuts against the outer edge of the turntable, cutting off any vermicelli that may break along the edge of the turntable. This avoids excessive dragging and turntable malfunction. After the vermicelli is wound, it can be cut vertically along the end to cut the entire turntable of vermicelli into segments of roughly the same length, reducing the difficulty of subsequent processing.

[0025] This invention promotes the flat spreading and dispersion of vermicelli by using a combination of toothed rods, arc rods, and extrusion blocks. As the horizontal plate moves up and down, one end of the toothed rod swings up and down. During this swinging motion, the rod extends and retracts within its sleeve, continuously squeezing the extrusion block through the teeth of the toothed rod. This, combined with the spring, causes continuous vibration, ultimately driving the arc rod to vibrate back and forth. This makes the flat vermicelli easier to disperse, improves the rapid loss of moisture and heat from the vermicelli, reduces stickiness, and ultimately improves the overall quality of the vermicelli.

[0039] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0040] like Figures 1 to 11 As shown, the present invention provides a conveying device for unloading rice noodles in a production line, including a base 100, a turntable 200 rotatably connected to the top of the base 100 via a drive motor, a rice noodle machine body 400 fixed to the edge of the base 100, a mold 300 mounted on the upper side of the rice noodle machine body 400, and a fan 500 mounted below the mold 300. The device also includes:

[0041] The uniform feeding mechanism 600 is located on top of the turntable 200;

[0042] The dispersing mechanism 700 is connected to the uniform feeding mechanism 600;

[0043] The uniform feeding mechanism 600 includes a housing 650 fixed to the middle of the turntable 200. The inner cavity of the housing 650 abuts against a disc 680. The bottom of the disc 680 is rotatably connected to the center of the turntable 200. A spiral sleeve 640 is fixed to the top of the disc 680 and rotatably passes through the middle of the housing 650.

[0044] The above-described design employs the following: the base 100 provides stable support for the entire device; the turntable 200 rotates via a drive motor, ensuring the noodles are evenly distributed on its surface; the noodle-making body 400 is tightly integrated with the mold 300, responsible for the noodle-forming process; and the fan 500 operates below the mold 300, using airflow to help the noodles dry quickly. The uniform distribution mechanism 600, located at the top of the turntable 200, achieves even distribution of the noodles through the cooperation of the housing 650 and the disc 680. The dispersing mechanism 700 is connected to the uniform distribution mechanism 600, further promoting the dispersion and neat arrangement of the noodles, thereby ensuring the smooth progress of subsequent processes. The synergistic effect of this series of components not only improves production efficiency but also guarantees product quality.

[0045] like Figures 3 to 5 , Figures 8 to 11 As shown, the uniform feeding mechanism 600 also includes a mounting frame 610 fixed to the top of the base 100. A protective cover 6130 is fixed to the middle edge of the mounting frame 610, and a cylinder 620 is fixed to the middle of the mounting frame 610. A push rod 660 is fixed to the output end of the cylinder 620. A protrusion 670 is fixed to the end of the push rod 660, and the push rod 660 slides against the spiral groove of the spiral sleeve 640 through the protrusion 670. A number of arc-shaped grooves 6140 are equidistantly opened on the top of the disc 680. A number of sliding columns 690 are slidably connected to the disc 680 through the arc-shaped grooves 6140. A telescopic plate 61 is fixed to the top of each sliding column 690. 00; The outer wall of the telescopic plate 6100 slides through the side wall of the housing 650. The ends of the telescopic plate 6100 are all fixedly connected to the arc-shaped push plate 630. The bottom of the arc-shaped push plate 630 slides against the surface of the turntable 200. The side wall of the push rod 660 is fixedly connected to the horizontal plate 6120. The end of the horizontal plate 6120 is slidably connected to the inner side wall of the mounting bracket 610. The bottom of the horizontal plate 6120 is fixedly connected to the arc-shaped cutter 6110. The edge of the turntable 200 is rotatably connected to the corrugated pressure plate 6150. The end of the corrugated pressure plate 6150 is clamped with a rubber ball 6160. The bottom of the rubber ball 6160 is fixedly connected to the turntable 200.

[0046] The above scheme is adopted as follows: During the shaping and stacking of the vermicelli, after the cylinder 620 is activated, the push rod 660 begins to move up and down axially. This movement continuously squeezes the spiral groove of the spiral sleeve 640 through the protrusion 670, causing the spiral sleeve 640 to rotate reciprocally, which in turn drives the disc 680 to rotate synchronously. At this time, when the disc 680 rotates, it can squeeze the sliding column 690 through the arc groove 6140, causing the telescopic plate 6100 to perform effective reciprocating telescopic motion on the casing 650. This series of actions causes the surrounding arc push plate 630 to telescopically move towards the center point of the turntable 200, thereby tightening the inside of the coiled vermicelli, ensuring that the vermicelli is neat and preventing it from collapsing inward after being stacked to a certain height, which would cause the vermicelli to become tangled and messy. When the vermicelli coils to the height of the arc push plate 630 and is close to the holding limit of the turntable 200, the staff will use a knife to vertically cut the coiled vermicelli. At this point, the cut vermicelli pieces are of roughly the same length, which effectively improves the efficiency of subsequent processing and facilitates product packaging and delivery.

[0047] like Figures 5 to 7 , Figure 9 As shown, the dispersing mechanism 700 includes a U-shaped frame 720 fixed to the side wall of the vermicelli machine body 400. Slide grooves 790 are provided on both sides of the U-shaped frame 720. A pressure rod 730 and a toothed comb plate 740 are fixed to the lower side wall of the vermicelli machine body 400, respectively, and both are inclined towards the center of the turntable 200. Slider blocks 760 are slidably connected to both sides of the U-shaped frame 720 through the slide grooves 790. The side walls of the sliders 760 are elastically slidably connected to the inner cavity of the U-shaped frame 720. A curved rod 750 is fixedly connected to 760. The protrusion of the curved rod 750 faces the direction of the fan 500. A pressing block 770 is fixedly connected to the middle of one side of the slider 760. The pressing block 770 slides through the side wall of the U-shaped frame 720. The outer wall of the pressing block 770 abuts against a toothed rod 710. The outer wall of the toothed rod 710 is slidably connected to a rod sleeve 780. The side wall of the rod sleeve 780 is rotatably connected to the U-shaped frame 720. The end of the toothed rod 710 is rotatably connected to the middle of the horizontal plate 6120.

[0048] The above scheme involves the following: While the horizontal plate 6120 moves up and down reciprocally, one end of the toothed rod 710 is also driven to swing up and down. Since the other side of the toothed rod 710 is connected to the side wall of the U-shaped frame 720 via the rod sleeve 780, the end of the toothed rod 710 can always effectively abut against the surface of the extrusion block 770. When the toothed rod 710 swings back and forth, it can reciprocate within the rod sleeve 780, continuously squeezing the extrusion block 770 through the teeth of the toothed rod 710, resulting in continuous vibration in conjunction with the spring. This vibration further drives the arc rod 750 to reciprocate, promoting easier dispersion of the vermicelli during the spreading process, thereby accelerating the loss of moisture and heat, reducing mutual adhesion, and ultimately improving the overall quality of the vermicelli.

[0049] This application also proposes a method for using a conveyor device for unloading rice noodles in a production line, the method of which is as follows:

[0050] S1. Vermicelli end positioning: After the vermicelli is processed by the vermicelli machine body 400, it enters the mold 300 to be cut into strips. First, the vermicelli is pushed and laid flat by the arc rod 750. Then, the vermicelli passes through the pressure rod 730 from below and then passes through the toothed comb plate 740 from above. Finally, it reaches the top of the turntable 200. The end of the vermicelli is pressed by the wave pressure plate 6150 and locked by the rubber clamp ball 6160 to complete the positioning.

[0051] S2, Fan Dispersion: Cylinder 620 drives push rod 660 to move up and down axially back and forth, and through horizontal plate 6120 drives one end of toothed rod 710 to swing up and down, causing arc rod 750 to vibrate back and forth, the fans spread on arc rod 750 vibrate and shake apart, and fan 500 blows away some of the hot air and water vapor.

[0052] S3. Vermicelli coiling and straightening: After positioning, the vermicelli is continuously extruded from one side and combed by the toothed comb plate 740, while the other side rotates continuously on the turntable 200, allowing the vermicelli to be coiled and stacked flat. With the push rod 660 moving up and down axially, the arc-shaped push plate 630 at the center moves in all directions around the center point of the turntable 200, which can tighten the inside of the coiled vermicelli. The arc-shaped cutter 6110 intermittently abuts against the outer edge of the turntable 200 to cut off any accidentally broken vermicelli from the edge of the turntable 200, straightening the vermicelli.

[0053] S4. Vermicelli Cutting: When the vermicelli is about to reach the height of the curved push plate at 630 degrees, use a knife to cut the vermicelli vertically to obtain vermicelli of uniform length. After removing the current batch, continue to coil the next batch of vermicelli.

[0054] Working principle and usage process of this invention:

[0055] First, after the vermicelli material is processed by the vermicelli machine body 400 and enters the mold 300, it is extruded and discharged. The vermicelli is first pushed and spread flat by the arc rod 750, forming a row that disperses and abuts against the outer wall of the slider 760. Therefore, when the fan 500 blows air, the vermicelli receives air evenly, dispersing some of the heat and moisture. Next, the vermicelli passes under the pressure rod 730, then evenly passes above the comb plate 740, and finally reaches the top of the turntable 200. The ends of the vermicelli are flattened and pressed down by the wave pressure plate 6150, which is then locked with rubber ball 6160, completing the initial positioning of the vermicelli ends. The turntable 200 continues to rotate, spreading the combed vermicelli in a spiral on its surface, achieving a spiral stacking effect.

[0056] While stacking, the cylinder 620 drives the push rod 660 to move axially up and down, which in turn continuously squeezes the spiral groove of the spiral sleeve 640 through the protrusion 670, causing the spiral sleeve 640 to rotate reciprocally, which in turn drives the disc 680 to rotate synchronously. When the disc 680 rotates, it can squeeze the sliding column 690 through the arc groove 6140, causing the telescopic plate 6100 to reciprocate and extend on the housing 650. Finally, it pushes the surrounding arc push plate 630 to extend and extend outward from the center point of the turntable 200. In this way, the inside of the coiled vermicelli can be regulated and tightened, making the vermicelli neat and preventing it from collapsing inward after stacking to a certain height, which would cause the vermicelli to become tangled and messy. Furthermore, as the push rod 660 moves up and down, the horizontal plate 6120 also moves up and down synchronously, thereby causing the arc-shaped cutter 6110 to move up and down as well. This allows the edge of the arc-shaped cutter 6110 to intermittently contact the outer edge of the turntable 200, preventing the noodles from breaking and tangling at the bottom. Specifically, when the noodles break after being combed by the toothed comb plate 740, they can be cut off from the edge of the turntable 200 in time when they rotate to the arc-shaped cutter 6110 due to its up and down reciprocating movement. This avoids excessive dragging, which could cause tangling at the bottom of the turntable 200 and affect its continuous operation.

[0057] It is worth noting that when the starting cylinder 620 drives the push rod 660 to move up and down axially, the cylinder 620 and the turntable 200 can rotate automatically at a slow speed without being affected. Only the speed of the reciprocating movement of the cylinder 620 needs to be controlled to achieve the extension and retraction of the arc-shaped push plate 630.

[0058] When the noodles are coiled and about to reach the height of the curved push plate at 630 degrees, they reach the maximum capacity of the turntable at 200 degrees. At this point, the staff uses a knife to vertically cut the coiled noodles, which yields noodles of roughly the same length, effectively improving cutting efficiency and facilitating subsequent processing.

[0059] Furthermore, while the horizontal plate 6120 moves up and down, one end of the toothed rod 710 can be driven to swing up and down. Since the other side of the toothed rod 710 is rotatably connected to the side wall of the U-shaped frame 720 through the rod sleeve 780, the end of the toothed rod 710 always abuts against the surface of the extrusion block 770. When the toothed rod 710 swings back and forth, it can reciprocate within the rod sleeve 780, thereby continuously extruding the extrusion block 770 through the teeth of the toothed rod 710. This, combined with the spring, causes continuous vibration, and finally drives the arc rod 750 to vibrate back and forth, promoting the dispersion of the vermicelli during the spreading process, thereby improving the rapid loss of moisture and heat from the vermicelli.

[0060] It is worth noting that it is precisely because the cylinder 620 and the mounting bracket 610 are relatively fixed to the base 100 that the extension and retraction of the cylinder 620 can control the regularity of the vermicelli and drive the extrusion block 770 and the arc rod 750 to reciprocate and vibrate, further promoting the dispersion of the vermicelli during the flat laying process, thereby comprehensively ensuring the regularity of the vermicelli when it automatically falls onto the tray and wraps.

[0061] It should be noted that, in this document, relational terms such as "first" and "second" are used only to distinguish one entity or operation from another, and do not necessarily require or imply any such actual relationship or order between these entities or operations.

[0062] Although embodiments of the invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.

10. A method of using a conveying device for unloading rice noodles in a production line, applied to the conveying device for unloading rice noodles in a production line as described in claims 1 to 9, characterized in that: The usage method is as follows: S1. Vermicelli end positioning: After the vermicelli is processed by the vermicelli machine body (400), it enters the mold (300) to be cut into strips. First, the vermicelli is pushed flat by the arc rod (750). Then, the vermicelli passes through the pressure rod (730) from below and then passes through the toothed comb plate (740) from above. Finally, it reaches the top of the turntable (200). The end of the vermicelli is pressed by the wave pressure plate (6150) and locked by the rubber clamp ball (6160) to complete the positioning. S2, Fan dispersion: The cylinder (620) drives the push rod (660) to move back and forth axially, and through the cross plate (6120) drives one end of the toothed rod (710) to swing up and down, causing the arc rod (750) to vibrate back and forth, and the fans spread on the arc rod (750) to vibrate and disperse. The fan (500) blows away some of the hot air and water vapor. S3. Vermicelli coiling and straightening: After positioning, one side of the vermicelli is continuously squeezed out and combed by the toothed comb plate (740), while the other side rotates continuously on the turntable (200), allowing the vermicelli to be coiled and stacked. With the push rod (660) moving up and down axially, the arc-shaped push plate (630) at the center moves in all directions from the center point of the turntable (200), which can tighten the inside of the coiled vermicelli. There is also an arc-shaped cutter (6110) that intermittently abuts against the outer edge of the turntable (200) to cut off any accidentally broken vermicelli from the edge of the turntable (200), straightening the vermicelli. S4. Vermicelli Cutting: When the vermicelli is about to reach the height of the curved push plate (630), use a knife to cut the vermicelli vertically to obtain vermicelli of uniform length. After taking out the current batch, continue to coil the next batch of vermicelli.
