Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of household appliances, in particular to a weighing device and a feeding device. Background Art

[0002] The feeders currently on the market lack a weighing function, so users cannot know the specific weight of the food they feed their pets each time. They also cannot know how much feed is left in the feeder, how many meals can be fed to the pet, or whether there is no feed left. This brings great inconvenience to users and cannot guarantee the healthy growth of animals. Utility Model Content

[0003] Based on this, it is necessary to provide a weighing device and a feeder to address the problem that the feeder lacks a weighing function.

[0004] A weighing device, comprising: a weighing base; a weighing sensor, wherein the weighing sensor is arranged on the weighing base; a weighing platform, wherein the weighing platform is arranged on the weighing sensor, and the weighing sensor is clamped between the weighing base and the weighing platform; and a feeding assembly, wherein the feeding assembly is arranged on the weighing platform and is provided with a feeding channel.

[0005] The present application discloses a weighing device. By setting a weighing platform on a weighing sensor and at the same time setting the weighing sensor card between the weighing platform and the weighing base, on one hand, an object placed on the weighing platform can be transferred to the weighing sensor located below it, and the weighing sensor can directly and effectively receive the gravity from the object on the weighing platform, convert the received mechanical force into an electrical signal, and then display the weight of the object after appropriate circuit processing. This structure effectively ensures that the force transmission path is clear and lossless, thereby achieving accurate weight measurement. At the same time, this tight installation method avoids the dispersion and leakage of force during the transmission process, reduces the weighing error caused by uneven force transmission or additional loss, and improves the accuracy and reliability of weighing data, so that users can obtain the current weight data. On the other hand, by setting the weighing sensor card between the weighing platform and the weighing base, it can be ensured that the sensor will not be damaged due to excessive impact force or improper use, so that the weighing system can still maintain good performance in a complex working environment and is not affected by changes in the surrounding environment. At the same time, it also provides additional support, which helps to disperse the force applied to the sensor, thereby extending its service life.

[0006] In one embodiment, the weighing base includes a bottom plate and a fixed block, the number of the fixed blocks is multiple, the multiple fixed blocks are arranged around the bottom plate, and the weighing sensor is arranged on the bottom plate. By surrounding the multiple fixed blocks on the bottom plate, and the bottom plate is arranged on the shell through the multiple fixed blocks, the purpose of fixing the weighing base is achieved. As the main supporting part of the weighing base, the bottom plate provides a stable and solid foundation, which has enough area to stably support the entire weighing base and the components thereon. The multiple fixed blocks are arranged around the bottom plate to form multiple connection points, so that the connection between the bottom plate and the shell assembly is more stable. This multi-point fixing method can evenly disperse the force, prevent the connection from loosening or the bottom plate from shifting due to excessive force on a single point during use, and improve the stability and reliability of the overall structure of the equipment. At the same time, the multiple fixed blocks can play a certain buffering and shock absorbing role. Through the elastic deformation or slight displacement of the fixed blocks, the vibration energy can be absorbed and dispersed, and the impact of vibration on the components on the bottom plate and the shell assembly can be reduced, so as to ensure the normal operation of the weighing.

[0007] In one of the embodiments, the weighing sensor includes a sensor base, an inductor and a sensor platform, wherein the sensor base is arranged on the weighing base, the sensor platform is arranged on the weighing platform, the inductor is located between the sensor base and the sensor platform, one end of the inductor is arranged on the sensor base, and the other end of the inductor is arranged on the sensor platform. By arranging the sensor base on the weighing base, support is provided for stabilizing the inductor, which helps to ensure that the inductor maintains a stable position and posture during operation, and reduces measurement errors and signal fluctuations caused by unstable installation foundation. Since one end of the inductor is arranged on the sensor base and the other end is arranged on the sensor platform, this connection method provides a stable support structure for the inductor, and the sensor base and the sensor platform work together to ensure that the inductor maintains a fixed position and posture during the measurement process, reduces measurement errors and signal fluctuations caused by displacement or deformation of the inductor, and improves the stability and reliability of the measurement results.

[0008] In one embodiment, the sensor is provided with a through slot, and the through slot runs through the middle of the sensor. By providing a through slot in the middle of the sensor, the sensor can be more easily deformed when subjected to the same external force. This increased deformation helps to improve the sensitivity of the sensor to weight changes, so that small weight differences can be measured more accurately, and the accuracy of weighing measurement is improved. At the same time, when the force is applied, the stress can be redistributed around the through slot, making the stress distribution more uniform, reducing the local stress concentration phenomenon, reducing the risk of fatigue damage or deformation of the sensor due to stress concentration, and improving the service life and reliability of the sensor.

[0009] In one embodiment, the two ends of the through slot are rounded. By setting the two ends of the through slot to be rounded, it is helpful to more evenly transmit and distribute the deformation caused by the force. When the entire sensor measures the weight, it can more accurately reflect the size of the pressure, thereby improving the precision and accuracy of the measurement.

[0010] In one embodiment, the weighing platform is provided with a feeding positioning groove, the feeding assembly is arranged on the weighing platform and passes through the feeding positioning groove, the weighing base is provided with a feeding hole, the feeding assembly extends in the direction of the feeding hole and is arranged opposite to the feeding hole. By arranging the feeding assembly on the weighing platform and passing through the feeding positioning groove arranged on the weighing platform, the feeding positioning groove provides a precise installation position and guide for the feeding assembly, ensuring that the feed can be transported along a predetermined path during the operation of the feeding assembly, reducing deviations and errors in the feeding process, and improving the accuracy and stability of feeding. Since the weighing base is provided with a feeding hole, and the feeding assembly extends in the direction of the feeding hole but does not contact the feeding hole, on the one hand, the feeding assembly extends in the direction of the feeding hole, and can accurately transport the feed to a position near the feeding hole, providing good guidance and positioning for the smooth feeding of the feed, and further effectively avoiding the vibration, mechanical stress, etc. generated during the feeding process from being directly transmitted to the weighing base, thereby reducing interference with the weighing measurement and ensuring the accuracy and stability of the weighing data.

[0011] In one embodiment, the feeding assembly includes a feeding piece and a feeding shell, and the feeding piece and the feeding shell are both arranged on the weighing platform, the feeding shell passes through the feeding positioning groove, the feeding shell is arranged opposite to the weighing base, and the feeding shell is provided with a feeding channel, and part of the feeding piece is located in the feeding channel. By arranging the feeding piece and the feeding shell on the weighing platform, and the feeding shell passes through the feeding positioning groove provided on the weighing platform, the feed can be transported according to the predetermined channel, and the weighing platform provides stable support and fixation for the feeding piece, ensuring that the feeding piece maintains a relatively stable position and posture during operation, thereby improving the stability and reliability of the feeder. Since the feeding shell does not come into contact with the weighing base, the vibration, mechanical stress, and small displacement generated by the feeding shell during the feeding process will not be transmitted to the weighing base, thereby avoiding the influence of these interference factors on the weighing signal, ensuring that the weighing platform can accurately measure the weight of the feed, and greatly improving the accuracy and reliability of the weighing data. A feeding channel is arranged in the feeding shell, and part of the feeding member is located in the channel, so that the feed can be driven by the feeding member in the feeding channel, thereby realizing directional and centralized conveying of the feed and improving conveying efficiency and effect.

[0012] The second aspect of the present application discloses a feeder, which includes: a shell assembly, the shell assembly is provided with a accommodating chamber; the above-mentioned weighing device, the weighing device is arranged on the shell assembly and located in the accommodating chamber; a barrel assembly, the barrel assembly is arranged on the weighing device and located in the accommodating chamber, the barrel assembly is provided with a storage chamber, and the storage chamber is connected to the feeding channel.

[0013] The second aspect of the present application discloses a feeder, which provides a space for installation and storage of a weighing device and a barrel assembly by providing a receiving chamber in the shell assembly, which can effectively prevent physical collisions, scratches and extrusions from the outside, reduce the risk of damage to the weighing device and the barrel assembly caused by these external forces, and extend their service life. By arranging the weighing device on the shell assembly, the shell assembly can provide a solid support foundation for the weighing device, ensure that the weighing device maintains a stable position and posture during operation, reduce measurement errors and shaking caused by insufficient support, and because the weighing device is located in the receiving chamber, dust, water vapor and other impurities can be prevented from entering the weighing device, affecting its performance and accuracy, while extending its service life and reliability. The barrel assembly is arranged on a weighing device and located in the accommodating cavity, so that the initial weight of the feed in the barrel assembly and the weight of the feed reduced during the feeding process can be measured in real time and directly, so as to accurately grasp the amount of feed put in each feeding and ensure the accuracy and stability of the feeding amount. Since the storage cavity provided in the barrel assembly is connected to the feeding channel, a certain amount of feed can be stored and a continuous feed source can be provided for the subsequent feeding process, thereby realizing continuous and stable feeding and meeting the long-term or frequent feeding needs of animals.

[0014] In one embodiment, the barrel assembly includes a barrel shell and a funnel, the barrel shell is arranged on the weighing platform, the funnel is arranged on the barrel shell and / or the feeding assembly, the barrel shell and the recess of the funnel form the storage cavity, and the storage cavity is connected to the feeding channel. By arranging the barrel shell on the weighing platform and the funnel on the barrel shell and the feeding shell, the weighing platform can measure the weight of the feed in the barrel shell in real time, which helps to accurately grasp the remaining amount and consumption of the feed, and facilitates the user to replenish the feed or adjust the feeding plan in time. At the same time, the weight data fed back by the weighing device can accurately control the amount of feed output from the barrel shell, ensuring that the amount of each feeding can meet the expectations and achieve accurate feeding. Since the barrel shell and the recess of the funnel form a storage cavity, and the storage cavity and the feeding channel are connected, firstly, the storage cavity can store a certain amount of feed to provide a continuous source of feed for the subsequent feeding process; secondly, when feeding operations are required, the feed in the storage cavity can be continuously replenished to the feeding channel, realizing continuous and stable feeding, and meeting the long-term or frequent feeding needs of animals.

[0015] In one embodiment, the barrel assembly is arranged on the weighing platform and / or the feeding assembly. By arranging the barrel assembly on the weighing platform and / or the feeding assembly, the weighing platform can measure the weight change of the feed in the barrel assembly in real time, which enables the user to accurately understand the amount of remaining feed in the barrel, facilitates accurate control of the feeding amount and timely replenishment of feed, and at the same time, the barrel assembly is arranged on the feeding assembly, so that the feed can enter the feeding assembly more quickly and directly under the action of gravity, reducing the intermediate links and distances in the feeding process, improving the timeliness and accuracy of feeding, and ensuring that the amount and speed of each feeding can be accurately controlled.

[0016] In one of the embodiments, it also includes a discharge shell, one end of which is arranged on the weighing base and opposite to the feeding assembly, the shell assembly is provided with a discharge port, the other end of the discharge shell is passed through the shell assembly and is located at the discharge port, the discharge shell is provided with a discharge channel, and the discharge channel is connected with the feeding channel. By arranging one end of the discharge shell on the weighing base and adopting a non-contact suspended structure with the feeding assembly, if the discharge shell is in direct contact with the feeding assembly, these vibrations will be transmitted to the feeding shell through the contact part, and then transmitted to the weighing base, resulting in fluctuations and errors in the measurement results. Therefore, the non-contact structure effectively blocks the propagation path of the discharge shell vibration to the weighing base, ensuring that the weighing base is not disturbed by the feeding vibration during the weighing process, reducing the influence of such dynamic changes on the weighing measurement, thereby ensuring the accuracy and stability of the weighing data, so that each weighing result can be more accurate and reliable. Since the discharging shell passes through the shell assembly and is located at the discharge port, and the discharging channel and the feeding channel are connected, the feed in the feeding channel can smoothly enter the discharging channel, and the entire transmission process is not interrupted or blocked, thereby ensuring the continuity of the feed flow, improving the production efficiency and the speed of feed processing, and at the same time, the discharge port can enable the discharging shell to be accurately aligned with the discharge position, ensuring that the feed is accurately discharged from the discharge port, reducing the deviation and scattering of the feed during the discharge process, and improving the accuracy and controllability of the discharge.

[0017] In one embodiment, the shell assembly includes an outer shell, a base and an upper cover, the outer shell is arranged on the base, the upper cover is arranged on the outer shell, the outer shell, the base and the upper cover are enclosed to form the accommodating chamber, the outer shell is provided with a discharge port, and the barrel assembly is arranged on the outer shell. By arranging the outer shell on the base and the upper cover on the outer shell to enclose and form an accommodating chamber, protection is provided for the components inside the feeder, and dust, water vapor, corrosive substances, etc. from the outside can be isolated to prevent these factors from entering the interior to corrode and damage the components, which helps to extend the service life of the internal components and ensure the stable performance of the feeder. At the same time, the stable structure formed by the outer shell, the base and the upper cover provides a basis for installation and fixation of the internal components, so that each component can be accurately installed in a predetermined position, and maintain a stable position and relative relationship during the operation of the equipment, reducing component misalignment or loose connection caused by vibration or movement. Since the outer shell is provided with a discharge port, it is ensured that the feed can fall accurately in the preset direction and position after coming out of the feeder, avoiding the feed from being scattered randomly or deviating from the target area, making the feed transportation more accurate and orderly. At the same time, the operator can intuitively observe the discharge shell arranged at the discharge port, and can see the flow state, discharge speed and discharge amount of the feed, so as to timely discover problems such as feed blockage, uneven discharge, etc. and make adjustments and treatments, so as to realize effective monitoring of the feeding process.

[0039] The present application discloses a weighing device, which sets a weighing platform 3 on a weighing sensor 2 and clamps the weighing sensor 2 between the weighing platform 3 and a weighing base 1. On the one hand, an object placed on the weighing platform 23 can be transferred to the weighing sensor 2 located below it, and the weighing sensor 22 can directly and effectively receive the gravity from the object on the weighing platform 3, convert the received mechanical force into an electrical signal, and then display the weight of the object after appropriate circuit processing. This structure effectively ensures that the force transmission path is clear and lossless, thereby achieving accurate weight measurement. At the same time, this tight installation method avoids dispersion and leakage of force during the transmission process, reduces weighing errors caused by uneven force transmission or additional losses, and improves the accuracy and reliability of weighing data, so that users can obtain current weight data. On the other hand, by clamping the weighing sensor 2 between the weighing platform 3 and the weighing base 1, it can be ensured that the sensor will not be damaged due to excessive impact or improper use, so that the weighing system can still maintain good performance in a complex working environment and is not affected by changes in the surrounding environment. At the same time, additional support is provided to help disperse the force applied to the sensor, thereby extending its service life.

[0040] like Figure 2 As shown, in addition to the features of the above-mentioned embodiments, this embodiment further defines that: the weighing base 1 includes a bottom plate 11 and a fixed block 12, the number of the fixed blocks 12 is multiple, the multiple fixed blocks 12 are arranged around the bottom plate 11, and the weighing sensor 2 is arranged on the bottom plate 11. By surrounding the multiple fixed blocks 12 on the bottom plate 11, and the bottom plate 11 is arranged on the shell through the multiple fixed blocks 12, the purpose of fixing the weighing base 1 is achieved. As the main supporting part of the weighing base 1, the bottom plate 11 provides a stable and solid foundation, which has enough area to stably support the entire weighing base 1 and the components thereon. A plurality of fixing blocks 12 are arranged around the base plate 11 to form a plurality of connection points, so that the connection between the base plate 11 and the shell assembly 1 is more stable. This multi-point fixing method can evenly disperse the force, prevent the connection from loosening or the base plate from shifting due to excessive force at a single point during use, and improve the stability and reliability of the overall structure of the equipment. At the same time, the plurality of fixing blocks 12 can play a certain buffering and shock-absorbing role. Through the elastic deformation or slight displacement of the fixing blocks 12, the vibration energy can be absorbed and dispersed, reducing the impact of vibration on the components on the base plate 11 and the shell assembly 1, thereby ensuring the normal operation of the weighing.

By providing the through slot 201 in the middle of the sensor 22, the sensor 22 can be more easily deformed when subjected to the same external force. This increased deformation helps to improve the sensitivity of the sensor 22 to weight changes, so that it can more accurately measure small weight differences and improve the accuracy of weighing measurement. At the same time, when subjected to force, the stress can be redistributed around the through slot 201, making the stress distribution more uniform, reducing the local stress concentration phenomenon, reducing the risk of fatigue damage or deformation of the sensor 22 due to stress concentration, and improving the service life and reliability of the sensor 22.

[0043] like Figure 2 As shown, in addition to the features of the above embodiment, this embodiment further defines that: both ends of the through slot 201 are rounded. By setting the two ends of the through slot 201 to be rounded, it is helpful to more evenly transmit and distribute the deformation caused by the force.

Since the weighing base 1 is provided with a feed hole 101, and the feeding assembly 4 extends toward the feed hole 101 but does not contact the feed hole 101, on the one hand, the feeding assembly 4 extends toward the feed hole 102, and can accurately transport the feed to a position near the feed hole 102, providing good guidance and positioning for the smooth feeding of the feed, and further, effectively avoiding the vibration, mechanical stress, etc. generated during the feeding process from being directly transmitted to the weighing base 1, thereby reducing the interference to the weighing measurement and ensuring the accuracy and stability of the weighing data.

Since the recesses of the barrel shell 310 and the funnel 320 form a storage chamber 3001, and the storage chamber 3001 is connected to the feeding channel 401, firstly, the storage chamber 3001 can store a certain amount of feed to provide a continuous source of feed for the subsequent feeding process; secondly, when feeding operations are required, the feed in the storage chamber 3001 can be continuously replenished to the feeding channel 401, thereby achieving continuous and stable feeding and meeting the long-term or frequent feeding needs of animals.

By arranging the barrel assembly 300 on the weighing platform 3 and / or the feeding assembly 4, the weighing platform 3 can measure the weight change of the feed in the barrel assembly 300 in real time, which enables the user to accurately understand the amount of remaining feed in the barrel, facilitates accurate control of the feeding amount and timely replenishment of feed, and at the same time, the barrel assembly 300 is arranged on the feeding assembly 4, so that the feed can enter the feeding assembly 4 more quickly and directly under the action of gravity, reducing the intermediate links and distances in the feeding process, improving the timeliness and accuracy of feeding, and ensuring that the amount and speed of each feeding can be accurately controlled.

[0051] like Figure 3 and Figure 6As shown, in addition to the features of the above embodiments, this embodiment is further defined as follows: it also includes a discharge shell 400, one end of the discharge shell 400 is arranged on the weighing base 1 and is arranged opposite to the feeding component 4, the shell component 100 is provided with a discharge port 1002, the other end of the discharge shell 400 is passed through the shell component 100 and is located at the discharge port 1002, the discharge shell 400 is provided with a discharge channel 4001, and the discharge channel 4001 is connected to the feeding channel 401. By setting one end of the discharge shell 400 on the weighing base 1 and adopting a non-contact suspended structure with the feeding component 4, if the discharge shell 400 is in direct contact with the feeding component 4, these vibrations will be transmitted to the feeding shell 42 through the contact part, and then transmitted to the weighing base 1, causing fluctuations and errors in the measurement results. Therefore, the non-contact structure effectively blocks the propagation path of the discharge shell 400 vibration to the weighing base 1, ensuring that the weighing base 1 is not disturbed by the feeding vibration during the weighing process, reducing the impact of such dynamic changes on the weighing measurement, thereby ensuring the accuracy and stability of the weighing data, so that each weighing result can be more accurate and reliable. Since the discharge shell 400 passes through the shell assembly 100 and is located at the discharge port 1002, and the discharge channel 4001 and the feeding channel 401 are connected, the feed in the feeding channel 401 can smoothly enter the discharge channel 4001, and the entire transmission process is not interrupted or blocked, thereby ensuring the continuity of the feed flow, improving production efficiency and feed processing speed. At the same time, the discharge port 1002 can enable the discharge shell 400 to be accurately aligned with the discharge position, ensuring that the feed is accurately discharged from the discharge port, reducing the deviation and scattering of the feed during the discharge process, and improving the accuracy and controllability of the discharge.

[0052] like Figure 6 and Figure 7As shown, in addition to the features of the above embodiments, this embodiment further defines that: the housing assembly 100 includes a shell 110, a base 120 and an upper cover 130, the shell 110 is arranged on the base 120, the upper cover 130 is arranged on the shell 110, the shell 110, the base 120 and the upper cover 130 are enclosed to form a receiving chamber 1001, the shell 110 is provided with a material discharge port 1002, and the barrel assembly 300 is arranged on the shell 110. By arranging the shell 110 on the base 120 and the upper cover 130 on the shell 110, the receiving chamber 1001 is enclosed to form, which provides protection for the components inside the feeder, can isolate external dust, water vapor, corrosive substances, etc., prevent these factors from entering the interior to erode and damage the components, help to extend the service life of the internal components, and ensure the stable performance of the feeder. At the same time, the stable structure formed by the shell 110, the base 120 and the upper cover 130 provides a foundation for the installation and fixing of the internal components, so that each component can be accurately installed in the predetermined position, and maintain a stable position and relative relationship during the operation of the equipment, reducing the dislocation of components or loose connections caused by vibration or movement. Since the shell 110 is provided with a discharge port 1002, it is ensured that the feed can fall accurately in the preset direction and position after coming out of the feeder, avoiding the feed from being scattered randomly or deviating from the target area, making the feed delivery more accurate and orderly, and at the same time allowing the operator to intuitively observe the discharge housing 400 set at the discharge port 1002, and can see the flow state of the feed, the discharge speed and the discharge amount, etc., so as to facilitate timely discovery of problems such as feed blockage, uneven discharge, etc., and make adjustments and treatments, so as to achieve effective monitoring of the feeding process.
