Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of nutrition bar ingredients, in particular to an automatic weighing, mixing and automatic claw-assisted feeding device. Background Art

[0002] Nutrition bars can be used as meal replacements and are a very popular instant food. They are rich in protein and dietary fiber, low in fat, low in calories, and easy to carry, so fitness enthusiasts and outdoor athletes often eat them. At the same time, they can maintain a sense of fullness for about four hours, which is suitable for temporary hunger relief. Nutrition bars can not only supplement the protein needed by the human body, but also inhibit the synthesis of fat and promote fat decomposition, which has a certain effect on weight loss.

[0003] When using existing technology to produce nutrition bars, it is necessary to screen the raw materials to ensure that each part of the raw materials can be mixed evenly. The general procedure is to first use a hand-cranked pre-mixing method or a conventional mixer to mix the raw materials according to the amount of raw materials used, which is time-consuming and not suitable for continuous production. After the materials are stirred, they also need to be manually assisted in feeding at the feeding port to prevent large pieces of raw materials from agglomerating or excessive feeding volume from blocking the feeding port, which is both labor-intensive and time-consuming. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a new type of nutrition bar automatic weighing, mixing and automatic claw-assisted feeding device, which can make the raw material mixing more uniform, the mixing time shorter and more efficient, and the feeding is smoother, saving labor and improving product quality and production efficiency.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0016] The technical solution of the present invention is further described in detail below through specific embodiments and in conjunction with the accompanying drawings:

[0017] Example: Figure 1-Figure 2As shown, an automatic weighing, mixing and automatic claw-assisted unloading device includes an airflow mixer 1. The airflow mixer 1 is equipped with an airflow system, which can send compressed air into the mixing chamber through the nozzle on the mixing head. The material instantly rises along the cylinder wall in a spiral manner with the compressed air to form a fluidized mixing state. After several pulse blowing and pause intervals, the material in the full volume can be quickly and evenly mixed. At the same time, the airflow mixer 1 is also equipped with a CIP cleaning device 2. Through the automated cleaning and disinfection process, there is no need to disassemble or open the equipment, which greatly reduces the operator's manual intervention. The powder storage bin 3 is connected to the bottom of the airflow mixer 1. The mixed powder material can be transferred to the powder storage bin 3 through a pipeline for temporary storage, and then enters the common unloading hopper 10 through spiral unloading. On the right side of the air flow mixer 1, there is a three-dimensional mixer 4 for particles. The three-dimensional mixer 4 can perform unique translation, rotation and rocking movements in the three-dimensional space of the cube, so that the particle material is in a complex motion state of "rotation-flow-translation-inverted falling body" in the mixing barrel, thereby generating an alternating pulse, which can continuously promote the movement of the material until it is evenly mixed. The three-dimensional mixer 4 is connected to the particle material storage bin 5 below. The mixed particle material can be transmitted to the particle material storage bin 5 through a pipeline for temporary storage, and then enter the common discharge hopper 10 through a spiral discharge. The discharge hopper of the powder storage bin 3, the discharge hopper of the particle storage bin 5 and the common discharge hopper 10 are all equipped with a vibration hammer 14 to prevent incomplete discharge or material residue. The mixed powder and particle material finally enter the solid-liquid mixing bin 9 through the common discharge hopper 10. On the left side of the powder storage bin 3, there are multiple liquid raw material bins 6, and their volumes are different according to the amount of pre-stored liquid. The liquid raw material bin 6 is provided with a PLC controlled quantitative feeding device 7, which uses a type of programmable memory to store internal programs. Their structures are generally: weighing sensor, speed sensor and flow accumulator, so that the device can achieve instantaneous quantity calculation and display, cumulative quantity function, calibration interval, zero calibration, zeroing, etc. Each liquid raw material bin 6 and the PLC controlled quantitative feeding device 7 are connected by a pipeline. After the required amount is weighed by the PLC controlled quantitative feeding device 7, the liquid enters the temporary storage tank 17 for temporary storage. Finally, each liquid in the temporary storage tank is gathered at the homogenizing tank 8 located below the temporary storage tank, and homogenized in the homogenizing tank 8. After each raw material is homogenized, it is connected to the solid-liquid mixing bin 9 of the nutrition bar through a pipeline. At the end of the pipeline, an atomizing spraying device 11 is provided, which can spray the homogenized liquid in the form of mist droplets, and mix and stir with the powder and granular materials more evenly.

[0018] After stirring, it enters the molding stage. The mixing bin dumps the mixed materials onto the angle-adjustable discharge plate 12 through a pneumatic device. A plurality of automatic claw devices 13 are provided at the end of the discharge plate 12. By pushing, stirring, grabbing and stirring the raw materials, the discharge speed and amount can be controlled to prevent excessive discharge from blocking the discharge port; then it can be crushed and cut.

[0019] Molding device such as Figure 2 As shown, it includes a feed plate 12, an automatic claw device 13, a calendering roller 15 and a conveyor belt 16. The feed plate 12 can adjust the tilt angle, and the automatic claw device 13 can move in any direction. Its movement trajectory can be controlled by PLC numerical control. The two groups of automatic claws far away from the calendering roller are equipped with baffles, which can continuously organize the materials to the center of the plate. The action can be repeated and the materials can be blocked to prevent them from slipping. The two groups of automatic claws close to the calendering roller can rotate, grab, stir, and repeat the action to stir the raw materials and grab them downwards to make the materials slide to the calendering roller for calendering. The automatic claws cycle back and forth until all the materials are discharged. The utility model can improve the mixing effect of the materials, has the advantages of good stirring effect and the materials are not easy to pile up. At the same time, the automatic claw device can replace the original manual labor at the feed port, saving manpower.

[0020] The above-described embodiment is only a preferred solution of the present invention and does not limit the present invention in any form. There are other variations and modifications without exceeding the technical solution described in the claims.
