[0028] Embodiment 1
[0029] Reference Figure 1 - Figure 5A scooping mechanism for a noodle topping, comprising a mounting frame 1, a moving frame 2 is arranged on the side of the mounting frame 1, a lateral movement module 3 for driving the moving frame 2 to move horizontally is installed in the mounting frame 1, a support rod 4 is arranged on the side of the moving frame 2, a lifting module 5 for driving the support rod 4 to move up and down is installed in the moving frame 2, a tipping bucket 6 for scooping materials is arranged on the side of the support rod 4, a scooping assembly 7 for driving the tipping bucket 6 to turn over is installed on the support rod 4, and displacement sensors 8 are installed on both the lateral movement module 3 and the lifting module 5;
[0030] The transverse shift module 3 includes a pulley 1 31 rotating in the mounting frame 1 through a rotating shaft, a pulley 2 32 also rotating in the mounting frame 1 through a rotating shaft, the pulley 1 31 and the pulley 2 32 are connected to each other through a connecting belt 1 33, a motor 1 34 is fixed on the back of the mounting frame 1, and the output shaft end of the motor 1 34 is fixedly connected to the pulley 1 31;
[0031] The lifting module 5 includes a pulley three 51 that rotates through a rotating shaft in the mobile frame 2. A pulley four 52 is also rotated through a rotating shaft in the mobile frame 2. The pulley three 51 and the pulley four 52 are connected to each other through a connecting belt two 53. A motor two 54 is fixed to the back of the mobile frame 2, and the output shaft end of the motor two 54 is fixedly connected to the pulley four 52.
[0032] The transverse movement module 3 also includes a limit bar 35 fixed in the mounting frame 1, and a limit block 36 is fixed on the back of the movable frame 2. The limit block 36 slides on the outer surface of the limit bar 35. The limit block 36 is fixed on the surface of the connecting belt 33, and one of the displacement sensors 8 is installed on the limit block 36.
[0033] The transverse movement module 3 also includes a drag chain groove 37 fixed on the top of the mounting frame 1 , and a drag chain 38 is fixed on the back of the moving frame 2 , and the drag chain 38 slides in the drag chain groove 37 .
[0034] The scooping assembly 7 includes a bracket 71 fixed on the top of the support rod 4, a rocker arm 72 is rotated on the side of the bracket 71 through a bearing, a connecting bar 73 is rotated on the side of the rocker arm 72 through a rotating shaft, a fixing bar 74 is fixed on the support rod 4, and the bucket 6 is rotatably connected to the fixing bar 74 and the connecting bar 73 through a rotating shaft, and a motor 75 is fixed on the bracket 71 for driving the rocker arm 72 to rotate.
[0035] This technical solution is adopted because manual scooping of materials during busy periods in restaurants greatly occupies the working time of staff, resulting in frequent delays in serving meals.
[0036] Specifically, when the noodles are made and need to be scooped, the motor 34 can be started to drive the pulley 31 to rotate, and with the cooperation of the rotation of the pulley 2 32, the connecting belt 33 can be driven to rotate. The connecting belt 33 is fixedly connected to the limit block 36, so the limit block 36 can be driven to move left or right on the outer surface of the limit bar 35. The limit block 36 drives the movable frame 2, the support rod 4 and the tipping bucket 6 to move together, so that the tipping bucket 6 moves to the topping, and the motor 3 75 is started to drive the swing arm 72 to make a circular motion. Since the swing arm 72 is rotationally connected to the connecting bar 73 and the tipping bucket 6 is rotationally connected to the fixed bar 74 and the connecting bar 73, the tipping bucket 6 can be driven to flip up and down, so that the topping can be scooped onto the noodles. The setting of the drag chain slot 37 and the drag chain 38 is to help the movable frame 2 and the tipping bucket 6 to run along a specific horizontal path to avoid problems such as confusion, interweaving or misalignment.
[0037] It should be noted that the turning range of the tipping bucket 6 should not be too large to avoid the occurrence of topping splashing.
[0038] Embodiment 2
[0039] Reference Figure 1 - Figure 5 The lifting module 5 also includes a lock 55 fixed on the side of the support rod 4, the lock 55 is fixed on the surface of the connecting belt 2 53, a slide rail 56 is fixed on the side of the mobile frame 2, a slider 57 is fixed on the side of the support rod 4, the slider 57 slides on the outer surface of the slide rail 56, and another displacement sensor 8 is installed on the slider 57.
[0040] The lifting module 5 also includes a second drag chain groove 58 fixed to the side of the moving frame 2 , and a second drag chain 59 is fixed to the side of the support rod 4 , and the second drag chain 59 slides in the second drag chain groove 58 .
[0041] In the present invention, this technical solution is adopted because the height of the barrel is inconsistent with the height of the noodles, so the longitudinal position of the tipping bucket 6 needs to be adjusted to scoop the topping and pour it on the noodles.
[0042] Specifically, when it is necessary to adjust the orientation of the longitudinal position of the tipping bucket 6, the motor 2 54 can be started to drive the pulley 4 52 to rotate, and with the cooperation of the pulley 3 51, the connecting belt 2 53 can be driven to rotate. Since the connecting belt 2 53 is connected to the lock buckle 55, it will drive the support rod 4 and the tipping bucket 6 to move upward or downward together, thereby adjusting the position of the tipping bucket 6 to facilitate scooping. The slider 57 slides on the outer surface of the slide rail 56 to improve the stability of the support rod 4 when moving. The setting of the drag chain groove 2 58 and the drag chain 2 59 is to help the mobile frame 2 and the tipping bucket 6 to run along a specific longitudinal path, again avoiding problems such as chaotic interweaving or misalignment. A displacement sensor 8 is installed on the slider 57 and the limit block 36. With the cooperation of the PLC controller, the PLC controller is electrically connected to the displacement sensor 8 as well as the motor 1 34 and the motor 2 54, so as to control the lateral and longitudinal movement distance of the tipping bucket 6, so as to accurately control the position of the tipping bucket 6 when scooping materials and avoid the situation where scooping cannot be achieved.
[0043] The above description is only a preferred specific implementation manner of the present invention, but the protection scope of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any technician familiar with the technical field can make equivalent replacements or changes within the technical scope disclosed by the present invention according to the technical scheme and the utility model concept of the present invention, which should be covered by the protection scope of the present invention.
