[0036] Please also read Figures 1 to 3 Now, a measuring cup feeder adjustment device provided in an embodiment of the present application is described. The measuring cup feeder adjustment device comprises a divider 101, a dial 102, a lower measuring cup 103, a positioning column 104, a movable sleeve 105 and a material barrel 106. Among them:

[0037] The toggle disk 102 is coaxially connected to the output shaft of the divider 101, a number of lower measuring cups 103 are evenly arranged around the rotation center axis of the toggle disk 102 and are connected to the toggle disk 102, a positioning column 104 is coaxially connected to the toggle disk 102, a movable sleeve 105 is sleeved on the positioning column 104 and is driven by the positioning column 104 to rotate around the center axis of the positioning column 104, and an adjustment mechanism for moving the movable sleeve 105 relative to the positioning column along the axial direction of the positioning column 104 is also transmission-connected between the movable sleeve 105 and the positioning column 104; a material barrel 106 is connected to the movable sleeve 105 and forms a number of upper measuring cups 107 slidably connected to the lower measuring cup 103, and the relative sliding direction of the upper measuring cup 107 and the lower measuring cup 103 is parallel to the axial direction of the positioning column 104.

[0038] According to the above structure provided in this embodiment, in the measuring cup feeder adjustment device provided in this embodiment, the divider 101 can drive the lower measuring cup 103 and the upper measuring cup 107 to rotate around the output shaft of the divider 101 respectively through the toggle plate 102 connected to its own output shaft and the positioning column 104 connected to the toggle plate 102. Since the upper measuring cup 107 and the lower measuring cup 103 can slide relative to each other in a direction parallel to the positioning column 104, and the upper measuring cup 107 is connected to the positioning column 104 through the barrel 106 and the movable sleeve 105, when the movable sleeve 105 moves relative to the positioning column 104 under the action of the adjustment mechanism, the upper measuring cup 107 and the lower measuring cup 103 can be driven to slide relative to each other to form different volume totals, thereby significantly expanding the use scenarios of the measuring cup feeder, which is far superior to the prior art.

[0039] In another embodiment of the present application, please refer to Figures 1 to 3 The adjustment mechanism includes a pin 108 that passes through the positioning column 104 horizontally and a screw rod 109 that is threadedly connected to the pin 108.
