Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of instant food bag production equipment, and in particular relates to a material adding device. Background Art

[0002] Cereals, dried fruits and other materials are encapsulated in the milk cap to form an instant food package, which is then turned upside down on the top of the yogurt. When eating, the materials in the instant food package are poured into the yogurt and mixed and eaten together with the yogurt, which can ensure the crispness of the materials and thus improve the taste.

[0003] However, there is a big difference in volume between dried fruit and oatmeal, especially dried strawberries. Most whole strawberries or halved strawberries are larger in volume than oatmeal. If mixed together, they are usually on top of the oatmeal. Therefore, they cannot be put into the same feeding device for material addition at the same time to avoid uneven distribution of dried fruit during feeding or the situation where there is no dried fruit in some milk caps.

[0004] The existing method of adding dried fruits is mostly done manually, that is, manually putting the dried fruits into the milk cap laid on the conveyor belt, and then the milk cap is transported by the conveyor belt to the bottom of the cereal feeding mechanism for automatic feeding of cereal to complete the addition of materials, and then sent to the packaging station for packaging. During the process of putting the dried fruits in, the workers need to bend over all the time. After the dried fruits in their hands are added, the equipment needs to be stopped for replenishment. This method is inefficient and cannot achieve continuous operation, and the labor intensity of the workers is high. Utility Model Content

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0025] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the utility model clearer, the implementation methods of the utility model are described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, but the embodiments described in the utility model are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, rather than all the embodiments.

[0026] like Figure 1-Figure 6 As shown, this embodiment provides a material adding device, which is arranged above a conveying mechanism 1. The conveying mechanism 1 includes a plurality of rows of carrying plates 2. The carrying plates 2 are provided with conveying holes 3 in an array. The conveying holes 3 are provided with milk caps. The material adding device includes a material trough 10 and a material guide trough 20 slidably arranged below the material trough 10. The material trough 10 is fixed on a frame. The material trough 10 is used to hold dried fruits to be added, such as dried strawberries; the material guide trough 20 is used to pour the dried fruits into the corresponding milk caps and control the discharge amount of the dried fruits so that the amount of dried fruits in each milk cap is consistent.

[0027] Specifically, Figure 2 , Figure 5 As shown, a bottom plate 11 is provided at the bottom of the material trough 10, and one side of the length direction of the bottom plate 11 is hinged to one side of the length direction of the bottom of the material trough 10. Brackets 12 are extended at both ends of the outer wall of the material trough 10, and the brackets 12 are in an inverted L shape. The vertical part of the bracket 12 extends toward the bottom, and the lower end of the vertical part of the bracket 12 is rotatably connected to the same rotating shaft 13, and the rotating shaft 13 is located below the floor 11 at intervals. A cam 14 is fixed on the rotating shaft 13, and one end of the rotating shaft 13 extends out of one side of the vertical part of the bracket 12 and is connected to a motor 15.

[0028] The material guide trough 20 is arranged at the bottom of the bottom plate 11, with its opening facing upward, and the bottom of the material guide trough 20 is tangent to the cam 14. Both ends of the material guide trough 20 are slidably connected to the material trough 10. One side of the material guide trough 20 is provided with a material guide pipe 21 connected thereto, and the material guide pipe 21 corresponds to the other side of the material trough 10. The projection of the material guide pipe 21 on the conveying mechanism 1 falls into the moving track of the conveying hole 3, so that the dried fruits in the material guide pipe 21 can be smoothly put into the milk cap.

[0029] Specific operation process:

[0030] The dried fruits to be added are loaded into the material trough 10, and the motor 15 is started. The motor 15 drives the rotating shaft 13 to rotate, and at the same time drives the cam 14 to rotate, so that the cam 14 pushes the guide trough 20 below the bottom of the material trough 10 and reciprocates in the vertical direction. When the farthest end of the cam 14 contacts the outer wall of the bottom of the guide trough 20, the bottom plate 11 is attached to the bottom of the material trough 10. At this time, the material trough 10 is in a closed state, and the guide tube 21 moves upward away from the milk cap on the conveying mechanism 1, so that when the nearest end of the cam 14 contacts the outer wall of the bottom of the guide trough 20, The bottom plate 11 rotates downward to the maximum position, thereby opening the bottom of the material trough 10, allowing the dried fruits to enter the material guide trough 20 along the bottom plate 11 and enter the material guide pipe 21 along the material guide trough 20. At this time, the material guide pipe 21 moves downward synchronously with the material guide trough 20, so that the bottom of the material guide pipe 21 is close to the top surface of the milk cap, and materials are added to the milk cap, while preventing the materials from jumping out of the milk cap. In addition, it can also prevent the materials from being blocked in the material guide pipe 21. In this way, the materials can be continuously added to the milk cap, which is not only efficient, but also reduces the labor intensity of the workers and reduces the production cost.

[0031] Specifically, Figure 4 As shown, connecting rods 111 are respectively extended outward at both ends of the outer wall of the material trough 10, and the cross-section of the connecting rod 111 is rectangular, and strip grooves 211 are respectively provided at both ends of the material guide trough 20, and the strip grooves 211 are vertically arranged and pass through the inner and outer walls at both ends of the material guide trough 20, so that the connecting rod 111 is slidably connected in the strip groove 211, thereby preventing the material guide trough 20 from flipping during the up and down movement.

[0032] like Figure 3 As shown, in order to reduce the friction between the cam 14 and the bottom of the guide trough 20, a group of supports 22 are respectively provided at both ends of the bottom of the guide trough 20, and a roller 23 is rotatably provided between the group of supports 22 so that the roller 23 is tangent to the cam 14, thereby reducing the wear on the cam 14 and increasing the service life.

[0033] Specifically, Figure 4 , Figure 6 As shown, the inner bottom surface of the material guide trough 20 has an inclined surface 24, so that each time the material entering the material guide trough 20 can be added into the milk cap, the material addition is uniform. A discharge port 241 is provided on one side of the length direction of the material guide trough 20, and a material separator 242 is arranged in an array along the length direction of the discharge port 241, and one end of the material separator 242 is located between two adjacent material guide tubes 21, so that the material entering each material guide tube 21 is consistent, and the material is prevented from jumping into the adjacent material guide tube 21 when it falls into the material guide trough 20 and rolls into the material guide tube 21.

[0034] Preferably, the two sides of the top of the separator plate 242 are inclined to avoid staying in a flat position on the top of the separator plate 242 during the adding process.

[0035] Specifically, when the bottom of the material trough 10 needs to be closed, the bottom plate 11 is kept close to the bottom of the material trough 10, and a pin hole is provided on the side of the cam 14 facing the vertical part of the bracket 12, and a pin shaft 121 is passed through the vertical part of the bracket 12. When materials are put into the material trough 10, one end of the pin shaft 121 is passed through the vertical part of the bracket 12 and then inserted into the pin hole, thereby preventing the cam 14 from automatically rotating downward under the action of gravity.

[0036] The above is only a preferred embodiment of the utility model, and does not mean that it is the only one or limit the utility model. Those skilled in the art should understand that various changes or equivalent replacements made to the utility model without departing from the scope of the utility model are within the scope of protection of the utility model.
