Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of packaging machinery, and in particular relates to a compression sealing component for an external vacuum packaging machine and the external vacuum packaging machine comprising the component. Background Art

[0002] The vacuum packaging machine can automatically extract the air in the packaging bag, and complete the sealing process after reaching a predetermined vacuum degree. Among them, the external vacuum packaging machine is to put the vacuum nozzle into the packaging bag of the packaged object, evacuate the air, withdraw the vacuum nozzle, and then complete the sealing. Specifically, the sealing machine provided in the existing external vacuum packaging machine includes two horizontally arranged clamps, and a vacuum nozzle is provided between the two clamps. When in use, the opening of the packaging bag is passed through the two clamps, and the air nozzle is extended into the packaging bag. The two clamps are close to each other to clamp the packaging bag and the air nozzle at the same time. Then the vacuum device is started. After the packaging bag is evacuated to a vacuum, the vacuum device is moved to remove the air nozzle from the packaging bag. At this time, the two clamps still maintain the state of clamping the packaging bag, and the clamps are heated by the sealing machine to achieve heat sealing of the packaging bag. However, in this process, there is still the problem of unsatisfactory vacuuming effect due to loose sealing, and the emergence of this problem mainly includes two aspects: on the one hand, the current vacuum nozzle is generally in the shape of a round tube or a flat shape. When the two parallel clamps in the sealing machine clamp the suction nozzle with the above shape, due to the inherent shape of the suction nozzle, the normal pressure of the suction nozzle is different at different places, so the place with relatively small normal pressure will have the problem of loose sealing; on the other hand, when the nozzle is pulled out of the packaging bag, the external air can easily enter the vacuumed packaging bag through the gap between the two clamps opened by the nozzle. Although the two clamps will quickly recover and block the gap, it will still affect the vacuum effect of the packaging bag, resulting in loose sealing. Therefore, in order to improve the vacuuming effect of the external vacuum machine, the above problems need to be improved. Utility Model Content

[0003] In view of this, one of the purposes of the present invention is to provide a compression sealing assembly for an external vacuum packaging machine; the second purpose is to provide an external vacuum packaging machine including the compression sealing assembly.

[0004] In order to achieve the above object, the utility model provides the following technical solutions:

[0005] 1. A compression sealing assembly for an external vacuum packaging machine, the compression sealing assembly comprising a compression sealing head connector, a compression sealing head and a sealing ring; the compression sealing head connector is sealed and connected to the compression sealing head through a sealing ring; the compression sealing head connector and the compression sealing head are both provided with an exhaust pipe channel; the compression sealing head comprises an integrally formed front part and a rear part, the boundary between the front part and the rear part is chamfered, and the cross-sectional profile of the front part is surrounded by two large arcs and four small arcs tangent to the large arcs respectively.

[0006] Preferably, the radii of the two large arcs are both 7.5-30 mm, the central angles of the two arcs are both 30°-180°, and the radii of the four small arcs are both 1.2-10 mm.

[0007] Preferably, the chamfer 8 has a degree of 30°-40°.

[0008] Preferably, the sealing ring 4 is an O-ring.

[0009] Preferably, the end surface of the rear portion away from the boundary is provided with threaded holes, and sealing ring installation grooves are provided between the threaded holes.

[0010] Preferably, in a direction away from the clamping sealing head, the clamping sealing head connector is sequentially provided with a through hole, a bolt installation avoidance groove, a weight-reducing hole and a limit hole for use with the threaded hole.

[0011] Preferably, the front end of the exhaust pipe is a hollow cone, and a portion adjacent to the hollow cone is provided with lateral openings distributed along the circumference.

[0012] 2. An external vacuum packaging machine containing the compression and sealing assembly comprises a workbench, on which a frame, a sealing mechanism, a compression and sealing mechanism, an exhaust pipe telescopic mechanism and a control box are fixed; a packaging bag support platform and a cylinder mounting plate are fixed on the frame; the compression and sealing mechanism comprises a first cylinder arranged on the cylinder mounting plate, a first cylinder connecting assembly connected to the first cylinder, an upper silicone block connected to the first cylinder connecting assembly, a lower silicone block used in conjunction with the upper silicone block, a block mounting seat for mounting the lower silicone block, a compression and sealing assembly arranged between the upper silicone block and the lower silicone block, a compression and sealing assembly limit pin, and a limit pin mounting seat for mounting the limit pin of the compression and sealing assembly.

[0013] Preferably, the sealing mechanism includes a second cylinder arranged on the cylinder mounting plate, a second cylinder connecting assembly connected to the second cylinder, and a heat sealer cooperating with the second cylinder connecting assembly.

[0014] Preferably, the exhaust pipe telescopic mechanism includes an exhaust pipe, an exhaust pipe limiting member, and an exhaust pipe mounting seat supporting the exhaust pipe and the exhaust pipe limiting member.

[0015] The beneficial effects of the utility model are: providing a compression sealing component for an external vacuum packaging machine and an external vacuum packaging machine including the component, using the compression sealing component can not only solve the problem of unsatisfactory vacuum effect due to loose sealing, but also adjust the distance that the vacuum tube extends into the packaging bag, so as to better realize the extraction of air in the packaging bag. The key to achieving the above effect lies in the following two points: First, the cross-sectional profile of the front part of the compression sealing head in the compression sealing component is surrounded by two large arcs and four small arcs tangent to the large arcs. Compared with the traditional circular tube or flat shape, such an external profile can ensure that the compression sealing head is subjected to the maximum normal pressure at all places, thereby ensuring a highly tight seal, as shown in the following example. Fig. 9 As shown, Fig. 9 The middle left picture shows the pressure conditions when the traditional tubular vacuum nozzle is sealed. The silicone sealing strip moves in the direction of pressure F, and the three points ABC of the silicone sealing strip will coincide with the three points abc of the vacuum nozzle respectively. Point a is subjected to a normal pressure equal to the pressure F, point b is subjected to a normal pressure equal to the component of pressure F along the normal direction of point b, and the same is true for point c. According to the force analysis, the normal pressure gradually decreases from a to b and then to c, which will result in the sealing effect being worse the closer to point c. Fig. 9The middle right figure shows the pressure conditions of the compression sealing head when sealing in the utility model. The silicone sealing strip moves in the direction of pressure F, and the three points A', B', and C' of the silicone sealing strip will coincide with the three points a', b', and c' of the compression sealing head respectively. The normal pressure on point a' is the same as the pressure F, the normal pressure on point b' is equal to the component of the pressure F along the normal direction of point b', and the same is true for point c'. Although the normal pressure gradually decreases from a' to b' and then to c', the normal pressure at both ends of the compression sealing head is arc-shaped, so the normal pressure at c' will be greater than the normal pressure at c of the traditional tubular suction nozzle, thereby ensuring the sealing here. In addition, the two ends of the upper and lower silicone blocks used in conjunction with the compression sealing head in the utility model (E' and D' in the right figure) are also designed to be arcs. Compared with the two ends of the traditional upper and lower silicone blocks (E and D in the right figure) designed to be sharp angles, the arc design effectively solves the problem of insufficient sealing caused by deformation of the silicone blocks due to stress concentration at this location. Second, when vacuuming, the exhaust pipe passes through the compression sealing head through the exhaust pipe channel and enters the packaging bag. When the vacuuming is completed, the exhaust pipe returns to the compression sealing head. Since the compression sealing head connector is sealed to the compression sealing head by a sealing ring, the exhaust pipe does not exit the sealing ring when it returns to the compression sealing head, thereby effectively avoiding the problem of loose sealing caused by external air in the packaging bag during the process of the air nozzle being pulled out of the packaging bag. The compression sealing component has a simple structure and is easy to process and manufacture, and is suitable for large-scale industrial production. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
