[0002] Scented tea is a product that is a mixture of flowers, leaves or fruits of various plants. After being brewed with boiling water, it has a strong fragrance and is very popular in the market. Scented tea is packaged in an inner bag. When brewed, it is put into a cup together with the inner bag. Multiple inner bags are packaged together in an outer bag.

[0003] The scented tea is mixed with raw materials, packed in inner bags, packed in outer bags, and packed in cartons on the existing production line. Both the inner bag and outer bag packaging are done by automatic packaging machines, which are basically error-free. The automatic packaging machine can produce an outer bag of scented tea every 8 seconds, but the carton packaging is done manually. Workers pick up a fixed number of outer bags and put them into cartons. After the final packaging is completed, the scented tea can be sold to lower-level distributors in the form of boxes.

[0004] The existing scented tea packaging production line has the following problems: the number of outer bags in a carton is required to be fixed, and workers manually pick up a certain number of outer bags and put them into cartons, which can easily lead to mistakes by putting too much or too little.

[0005] Therefore, the existing assembly line has the defect that the quantity of scented tea packing is prone to error. Utility Model Content

[0006] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a scented tea packaging production line. The utility model has the advantage of avoiding errors in the quantity of scented tea packaging.

[0007] The technical solution of the utility model is as follows: a scented tea packaging production line, wherein a belt conveyor is provided at the discharging end of the production line, a hopper is provided below the discharging end of the conveyor, a counter is provided in the hopper, a turntable is provided below the hopper, a plurality of trays evenly distributed in the circumferential direction are provided on the turntable, a driving mechanism is connected to the turntable, and the driving mechanism and the counter are both connected to a controller.

[0008] In the aforementioned scented tea packaging line, the conveying surface of the conveyor is inclined upward for conveying, and a plurality of evenly distributed baffles are provided on the belt of the conveyor.

[0009] In the aforementioned scented tea packaging line, the counter comprises a rotating plate hinged to the hopper on one side, a spring connected to the hopper is provided on the rotating plate, and a travel switch connected to the controller is provided on the upper or lower side of the rotating plate.

[0010] In the aforementioned scented tea packaging line, the driving mechanism includes a frame located below the rotating plate, a rotating shaft connected to the frame is provided on the axis of the rotating plate, a passive gear is provided on the rotating shaft, a driving gear is provided on one side of the passive gear, and a motor with an output end connected to the driving gear is provided on the frame, and the wiring terminal of the motor is connected to the controller.

[0011] In the aforementioned scented tea packaging production line, a rolling track is provided on the bottom surface of the turntable, and a plurality of bull's eye wheels cooperating with the rolling track are provided on the top of the frame, and the plurality of bull's eye wheels are evenly distributed in the circumferential direction.

[0012] In the aforementioned scented tea packaging line, the turntable is provided with positioning holes that cooperate with the tray.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the utility model adds a conveyor on the basis of the existing assembly line. The scented tea that has been packaged in inner and outer bags moves obliquely upward under the action of the conveyor and falls into the hopper. Every time an outer bag falls, the counter sends a signal to the controller. After the packing quantity requirement is reached, the turntable rotates to make the subsequent outer bags fall into the next empty tray, so that the outer bags on each tray can be loaded into a corresponding carton to avoid mistakes. Therefore, the utility model has the advantage of avoiding mistakes in the packing quantity of scented tea.

[0014] As a further improvement, by arranging a plurality of bull's eye wheels on the frame to support the turntable, the turntable is supported at multiple locations, is not easily deformed, and has a longer service life. By arranging a rolling track that matches the bull's eye wheel at the bottom of the turntable, the contact area between the turntable and the bull's eye wheel is increased, the wear of the turntable is reduced, and the service life is further increased. In addition, the utility model has a simple structure and a relatively low improvement cost. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0019] The present invention is further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments, but they are not intended to limit the present invention.

[0020] Embodiment. A scented tea packaging production line is improved on the basis of the existing production line, such as Figure 1 As shown, the discharge end of the assembly line (below the discharge port of the automatic packaging machine for packaging the scented tea with inner and outer bags) is provided with a belt conveyor 1, the conveying surface of the conveyor 1 is inclined to convey upward, and a plurality of evenly distributed baffles 6 are provided on the belt of the conveyor 1, the function of the baffles 6 is to prevent the material from rolling down during the upward conveying process. The above-mentioned conveyor 1 is an existing equipment and can be purchased directly. The scented tea packaged in the outer bag is discharged from the automatic packaging machine one by one, falls onto the conveyor 1, and moves obliquely upward under the action of the conveyor 1.

[0021] A hopper 2 connected to the ground is provided below the discharge end of the conveyor 1, and a counter 3 is provided in the hopper 2. Figure 2 As shown, the counter 3 includes a rotating plate 7 hinged to the hopper 2 on one side, and the rotating plate 7 and the hopper 2 can be hinged by a hinge. A spring 8 connected to the hopper 2 is provided on the rotating plate 7, and the spring 8 is a sheet plate type. A travel switch 10 connected to the controller is provided on the lower side of the rotating plate 7. The outer bag on the conveyor 1 falls and passes through the hopper 2. In the process of passing through the hopper 2, the impact force of the outer bag causes the rotating plate 7 to overcome the preload force of the spring 8 and rotate downward, pressing the contact of the travel switch 10, and the travel switch 10 sends a signal to the controller. After the outer bag passes through the rotating plate 7, the rotating plate 7 rotates upward under the action of the spring 8 to avoid contact with the contact of the travel switch 10.

[0022] A turntable 4 is provided below the hopper 2. The turntable 4 is provided with a plurality of trays 5 evenly distributed in the circumference. The turntable 4 is provided with positioning holes 18 that cooperate with the trays 5. The positioning holes 18 are used to prevent the trays 4 from sliding sideways under centrifugal force. A driving mechanism is connected to the turntable 4. The driving mechanism includes a frame 11 located below the turntable 4. A rotating shaft 12 connected to the frame 11 is provided on the axis of the turntable 4. The rotating shaft 12 and the frame 11 are connected by a bearing. A passive gear 13 is provided on the rotating shaft 12. A driving gear 14 is provided on one side of the passive gear 13. A motor 15 whose output end is connected to the driving gear 14 is provided on the frame 11. The wiring terminal of the motor 15 is connected to a controller. A roller 16 is provided on the bottom surface of the turntable 4. Four bull's eye wheels 17 that cooperate with the roller 16 are provided on the top of the frame 11. The four bull's eye wheels 17 are evenly distributed in the circumference. The outer bags from the hopper 2 fall into one of the trays 4. The controller sets the number of outer bags that should be packed in a carton, assuming 20. The travel switch 10 sends 20 signals to the controller, and the controller makes the motor 15 work for a period of time. The motor 15 drives the driving gear 14 to rotate. The driving gear 14 drives the shaft 12 to rotate through the passive gear 13. The shaft 12 drives the turntable 4 to rotate a certain angle, so that the next empty tray 4 is transferred to the bottom of the hopper 2 to continue to receive the outer bags. Each outer bag on the full tray 4 is used to pack a carton to avoid workers making mistakes.

[0023] When the carton is large and the outer bags do not need to be arranged neatly in the carton before being put down, the carton can also be directly placed on the pallet 5. At this time, the outer bags fall directly into the carton, and the workers only need to seal the carton directly.
