Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of food processing equipment, in particular to a material processing machine. Background Art

[0002] In the automated production process of various types of pastries, it is often necessary to arrange the pastries neatly along the width of the conveyor line to facilitate subsequent processing, plating, stacking and other operations.

[0003] At present, most of the existing material sorting methods on the conveyor line adopt a gate designed on the conveyor line. The gate is lowered to block the materials transported along the conveyor line. After the materials are arranged neatly, the gate is lifted up to arrange the materials neatly and transport them to the rear along the conveyor line.

[0004] However, this method has the following shortcomings:

[0005] On the one hand, the material is sorted by hitting the gate, and the hard contact with the gate can easily cause the material to deform, especially for pastry ingredients, affecting the aesthetics of pastry forming;

[0006] On the other hand, the material stops running after hitting the gate, but the conveyor line continues to rotate, causing friction with the bottom surface of the material. For pastry ingredients, this leads to a large loss of pastry raw materials and increases production costs. Utility Model Content

When a sensing component on a conveying unit detects material, the conveying unit is controlled to stop running.

[0028] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0029] In the description of the present invention, it should be understood that terms such as "end", "upper", "lower", "side", "top", "bottom", "length", "inside", and "surface" indicating orientation or positional relationship are only for the convenience of describing the present invention and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the components or elements referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be understood as limitations on the present invention.

[0030] At present, in the process of arranging and sorting the ingredients of pastries, most of them adopt the method of designing a gate on the conveyor line. The gate is lowered to block the materials transported along the conveyor line. After the materials are arranged neatly, the gate is lifted to arrange the materials neatly and transport them to the rear along the conveyor line. However, on the one hand, this method easily causes deformation of the materials, affecting the aesthetics of the pastry forming; on the other hand, the materials stop running after hitting the gate, while the conveyor line continues to rotate at this time, causing friction with the bottom surface of the materials, resulting in a large loss of pastry raw materials and increasing production costs. Based on this, this embodiment provides a material sorting machine, which has the advantages of high sorting efficiency and can effectively protect the ingredients.

[0031] See also Figure 1 As shown, the material sorting machine includes four conveying units 100, a sensing mechanism 200 and a control module 300. The four conveying units 100 are arranged horizontally. Of course, other numbers of conveying units 100 can also be arranged according to the number of materials that need to be sorted.

[0032] For details, please refer to Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the conveying unit 100 includes a conveying bracket 2 and a conveying belt 1 rotatably mounted on the conveying bracket 2 via a roller shaft, and the conveying belt 1 is a belt. A driving motor 3 is mounted on one side of the conveying bracket 2, and the driving motor 3 is connected to a driving roller 4 in a transmission manner. The conveying belt 1 covers and abuts against a portion of the circumference of the driving roller 4.

[0033] The conveying unit further includes a tensioning roller 5 and a supporting roller 6. The conveyor belt 1 abuts against the circumference of the tensioning roller 5 and the circumference of the supporting roller 6. The tensioning roller 5 and the supporting roller 6 are rotatably mounted on the conveying bracket 2 and are respectively located on both sides of the driving roller 4, so that along the cross section of the driving roller 4, the length of the conveyor belt 1 wrapped around the circumference of the driving roller 4 is greater than half of the circumference of the driving roller 4, thereby preventing the conveyor belt 1 from slipping. At the same time, the position of the tensioning roller 5 can be adjusted by bolts, thereby tightening the conveyor belt 1, further preventing the conveyor belt 1 from slipping, and ensuring the stability of transportation.

[0034] In a preferred implementation manner of the present embodiment, the conveying brackets 2 of two adjacent conveying units 100 are staggered, that is, the conveying brackets 2 of two adjacent conveying units 100 are respectively located at the two ends of the conveyor belt 1, so that the two adjacent conveying units 100 can be installed closely together, avoiding interference between the conveying brackets 2 of two adjacent conveying units 100.

[0035] In this example, see Figure 5As shown, the sensing mechanism 200 includes four sensing components 6, and the number of the sensing components 6 matches the number of the conveying units 100. The four sensing components 6 are mounted above the four conveying units 100, and each sensing component 6 corresponds to each conveying unit 100, so as to detect the materials conveyed on the conveying unit 100. In addition, the sensing mechanism 200 also includes a mounting rod 8 and a wiring component 9. Support plates are provided at both ends of the mounting rod 8. The mounting rod 8 is mounted above the conveying unit 100 perpendicular to the feeding direction of the conveying unit 100 through the support plates. The four sensing components 7 are slidably mounted on the peripheral side of the mounting rod 8 and can be locked by bolts to adjust the position of the sensing components 7. The wiring component 9 adopts a wiring tube, which is arranged parallel to the mounting rod 8 and is also fixed on the support plate. Four wiring holes are opened on the peripheral side of the wiring tube to facilitate the wiring of each sensing component 7.

[0036] In this embodiment, the control module 300 controls the panel and the operation screen, and the control panel is connected to the conveying unit 100 and the sensing component 6 to control the operation or stop of each conveying unit 100 according to the detection signal of the sensing component 6.

[0037] During operation, the materials on each conveying unit 100 are independently conveyed on the conveyor belt 1. When the sensing component 6 on a conveying unit 100 detects the materials, the control module 300 controls the conveying unit 100 to suspend operation. Similarly, until the four sensing components detect that the materials on the four conveying units have all arrived at the sensing components, the control module controls the four conveying units to start at the same time and convey the materials at the same speed, so as to realize the neat arrangement of the four materials for conveying. This material sorting method can prevent the collision, deformation and wear of the materials and improve the material sorting effect.

[0038] In a possible implementation, the waiting time of the conveying unit 100 can be set through the operation screen. For example, if the sensing components 6 on three conveying units 100 all detect materials, and the sensing components 6 on the fourth conveying unit 100 still do not detect materials after the three conveying units 100 wait for 10 seconds, the control module 300 controls the three conveying units 100 to arrange the three materials in an orderly manner for conveying to prevent material blockage. The waiting time can be determined according to the production rhythm of the line, so as to cope with various production scenarios and improve applicability.
