Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of bean product processing, in particular to a box-blocking device for boxed tofu. Background Art

[0002] Soy products are common nutritious foods in people's daily lives. The production of soy products such as soy milk, tofu, dried tofu, and fermented tofu generally requires seven main steps: selecting beans, soaking beans, grinding beans, filtering slurry, boiling slurry, slurry forming, and forming. Specifically, in the production process, high-quality soybeans must be selected first, soaked and ground into slurry, and then coagulants such as brine are used to form tofu pudding, which is then transferred to a molding mold and pressed into tofu or further made into dried tofu.

[0003] When boxed tofu enters the sterilizer, the number of tofu boxes (100) entering each time needs to be controlled. If there is one extra box, the extra box cannot enter the sterilizer, and the staff needs to manually put the extra box into the subsequent tofu box queue. Although there is a box clamping mechanism to control the number of boxes entering, the side wall of the tofu box is smooth, and the box clamping mechanism still has a high error rate.

[0004] For this reason, our company provides a box-packed tofu blocking device to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0005] The utility model aims to overcome the defects in the prior art and provide a box-blocking device for boxed tofu.

[0008] A bottom plate is provided directly below the clamping mechanism, with both sides of the bottom plate extending outward from the main frame and tilted upward, and lower supporting plates located below the bottom plate are fixed to both output ends of the clamping mechanism, and a clamping plate for clamping the tofu box is provided at the end of the lower supporting plate.

[0009] Preferably, a plurality of rollers are provided on the blocking box rotating arm.

[0010] Preferably, the lifting mechanism comprises a telescopic cylinder fixedly connected to the main frame, an output end of the telescopic cylinder is vertically downwardly connected to an upper connecting plate and a lower connecting plate in sequence, and the lower connecting plate is connected to a clamping mechanism.

[0013] Preferably, the middle portion of the rotating arm of the blocking box is rotatably connected to the fixed plate via a rotating shaft.

[0014] Preferably, the roller is made of nylon.

[0015] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the utility model are:

[0016] The utility model adds a box-blocking rotating arm on the basis of the clamping mechanism. Under the dual action of the clamping mechanism and the linked box-blocking rotating arm, even if the tofu box is not clamped by the clamping mechanism, it can be blocked by the box-blocking rotating arm, and the clamping cylinder of the clamping mechanism can adapt to tofu boxes of different widths and models, greatly reducing the interception error rate.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0021] A preferred embodiment of the present invention will be described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings to clearly and completely describe the technical solution in a preferred embodiment of the present invention.

[0022] A box-blocking device for boxed tofu comprises: a main frame 1, a lifting mechanism 2 is fixed on the main frame 1, an output end of the lifting mechanism 2 is downwardly connected to a clamping mechanism 3, the clamping mechanism 3 has two output ends arranged horizontally opposite to each other, one of the output ends is connected to a box-blocking rotating arm 4, and the middle part of the box-blocking rotating arm 4 is rotatably connected to a fixed plate 11 fixed to the main frame 1; a bottom plate 5 is provided directly below the clamping mechanism 3, both sides of the bottom plate 5 extend outward from the main frame 1 and tilt upward, lower supporting plates 6 located below the bottom plate 5 are fixed to both output ends of the clamping mechanism 3, and a clamping plate 61 for clamping a tofu box 100 is provided at the end of the lower supporting plate 6.

[0023] The utility model adopts the above design, when the boxed tofu enters the sterilizing machine, the number of boxes entering each time needs to be controlled, and the boxed tofu is pressed Figure 1 The tofu is transported in the direction of the middle arrow. When the required number of boxes is transported, the two output ends of the clamping mechanism 3 retract, and the output end of the lifting mechanism 2 retracts, driving the lower support plate 6 to rise and clamp the boxed tofu together with the bottom plate 5; while the clamping mechanism 3 retracts, the box-intercepting rotating arm 4 rotates and falls under the action of its own gravity to intercept the boxes that are not clamped by the clamping mechanism 3, thereby improving the interception rate.

[0024] Specifically, a plurality of rollers 41 are provided on the box blocking rotating arm 4 .

[0025] Through the above-mentioned design, when the box-blocking rotating arm 4 falls and lands on the tofu box 100, there is rolling friction between the roller 41 and the tofu box 100, and the tofu box 100 maintains a straight line and passes smoothly under the action of the rolling friction force. If the box-blocking rotating arm 4 is not provided with the roller 41 and is directly placed on the tofu box 100, the tofu box 100 will be skewed, thereby causing congestion of subsequent tofu boxes 100.

[0026] Specifically, the lifting mechanism 2 includes a telescopic cylinder 21 fixedly connected to the main frame 1 , and an output end of the telescopic cylinder 21 is vertically downwardly connected to an upper connecting plate 22 and a lower connecting plate 23 in sequence, and the lower connecting plate 23 is connected to the clamping mechanism 3 .

[0027] Through the above design, the telescopic cylinder 21 of the utility model can securely fasten the clamping mechanism 3 through the upper connecting plate 22 and the lower connecting plate 23 .

[0028] Specifically, the clamping mechanism 3 includes two clamping cylinders 31 , the output ends of the two clamping cylinders 31 are arranged back to back and are both connected to the lower support plate 6 , and the box-blocking rotating arm 4 is also fixed to the output end of one of the clamping cylinders 31 .

[0029] The utility model adopts the above-mentioned design, so that the lower supporting plate 6 can tightly grasp the tofu box 100 under the action of the two clamping cylinders 31.

[0030] Specifically, the box-blocking rotating arm 4 is provided with a plurality of weight-reducing holes 42 , and the middle portion of the box-blocking rotating arm 4 is rotatably connected to the fixed plate 11 via a rotating shaft 43 .

[0031] Specifically, the roller 41 is made of nylon.

[0032] Through the above design, the utility model can prevent the tofu in the box from being damaged even if the box-blocking rotating arm 4 falls directly on the tofu box 100. Moreover, the nylon material is light in weight, thus reducing the overall energy consumption of the equipment.

[0033] Although the embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations may be made to the embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, and that the scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
