DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0019] The technical solution of the present application will be described clearly and completely below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present application.

[0020] The present application embodiment discloses a clamping device for filling dairy products. Figure 1 and Figure 2 The clamping device for filling dairy products includes a conveyor belt (not shown in the figure) for conveying a tank body, a base 10, a conveyor platform 20 and a clamping assembly 30. The base 10 can be used to install the conveyor platform 20 and the clamping assembly 30, and the conveyor platform 20 is supported and fixed on the inner top of the base 10, and the clamping assembly 30 is installed on the inner bottom of the base 10. A groove 11 is formed on the top of the base 10, which runs through the base 10 horizontally. The inner bottom wall of the groove 11 is flush with the top of the conveyor platform 20, so that the conveyor belt can pass through the groove 11 and be set above the conveyor platform 20 when installed. The conveyor belt is a prior art and a commonly used structure for those skilled in the art, and will not be repeated here. The clamping assembly 30 has two groups of movable parts that can be opened and closed, and the two groups of movable parts are symmetrically arranged on opposite sides of the conveyor platform 20, so that the two groups of movable parts can clamp or release the tank body passing above the conveyor platform 20 on the conveyor belt when the two groups of movable parts are in motion.

[0021] See also Figure 3 The conveying platform 20 may be formed with a plurality of positioning and fixing holes 21 at the outer edge of the top, and a drip hole 22 penetrating the conveying platform 20 may be formed at the center of the top of the conveying platform 20. A support rod for supporting and fixing the conveying platform 20 on the top of the base 10 may be inserted into the positioning and fixing hole 21. A collection bucket supported on the bottom of the base 10 may be placed in advance just below the drip hole 22, and the collection bucket may receive dairy products dripping from the filling equipment above when the conveyor belt is not set.

[0022] See also Figure 4 The clamping assembly 30 includes a rotating bracket 31, a linear push rod 32, a central axis 33, a triangular connecting plate 34, a first connecting arm 35, a second connecting arm 36, two clamping arms 37 and two positioning platforms 38. The rotating bracket 31 is installed and fixed on the inner bottom of the base 10, the bottom end of the linear push rod 32 is rotatably connected to the inner side of the rotating bracket 31, and the output end of the linear push rod 32 is rotatably connected to the adjacent corner of the triangular connecting plate 34. The linear push rod 32 can adopt a power source with an output end that can move linearly, such as an electric push rod, a hydraulic push rod or a pneumatic push rod, so that the output end of the linear push rod 32 can apply force to push the triangular connecting plate 34. One end of the central axis 33 facing the triangular connecting plate 34 is rotatably connected to the center of the triangular connecting plate 34, and the other end of the central axis 33 is fixed on the inner side wall of the base 10, so that when the triangular connecting plate 34 is pushed or pulled by the output end of the linear push rod 32, it can be deflected with the central axis 33 as the rotation center axis. The other two corners of the triangular connecting plate 34 are rotatably connected to the lower ends of the first connecting arm 35 and the second connecting arm 36, respectively. The top ends of the first connecting arm 35 and the second connecting arm 36 are rotatably connected to the lower ends of the two clamping arms 37, respectively. The middle parts of the two clamping arms 37 are rotatably connected to the adjacent positioning platforms 38, respectively. The two positioning platforms 38 are fixed on the opposite sides of the top of the conveying platform 20, so that when the triangular connecting plate 34 is deflected, the first connecting arm 35 and the second connecting arm 36 can be used to push or pull the two clamping arms 37 to move symmetrically above the conveying platform 20. The two clamping arms 37 constitute two groups of movable parts of the clamping assembly 30 that can be opened and closed, and the two clamping arms 37 can be pressed against the can body to be canned on both sides to limit it; or after the can body is released, it can be driven by the conveyor belt to continue to be transported.

[0023] In this embodiment, the clamping arm 37 includes a connecting portion 371, a lever portion 372 and abutting portion 373. The lower end of the connecting portion 371 is rotatably connected to the adjacent first connecting arm 35 or the second connecting arm 36, the upper end of the connecting portion 371 is fixedly connected to the adjacent end of the lever portion 372, and the bottom of one end of the lever portion 372 close to the connecting portion 371 is rotatably connected to the positioning platform 38, the abutting portion 373 is formed at one end of the lever portion 372 away from the connecting portion 371, and the side of the abutting portion 373 facing away from the lever portion 372 is formed with an arc-shaped contact area 374. The clamping arm 37 can deflect with the connection between the lever portion 372 and the positioning platform 38 as the rotation center. A soft rubber pad covering the surface is bonded and fixed to the contact area 374, so that when the clamping arm 37 contacts the tank body and presses it tightly to limit, the soft rubber pad can be used to protect the outer wall of the tank body, thereby reducing the wear or scratches on the outer wall of the tank body.

[0024] In this embodiment, the positioning platform 38 includes a fixing portion 381 with a plurality of fixing holes 382 formed on the top, and the fixing portion 381 can be fixed to the conveying bracket 20 by bolts at the fixing holes 382. A positioning portion 383 rotatably connected to the lever portion 372 is formed on the side of the fixing portion 381 facing away from the center of the conveying bracket 20, so that the lever portion 372 supports the deflection of the clamping arm 37.

[0025] The system of the present invention may further include a control system for controlling the operation of the linear push rod to automatically limit or release the clamping assembly on the tank body. It should be understood that the control system has no particular limitation and can be implemented by the control technology under the prior art, which will not be described in detail here.

[0026] The above are all preferred embodiments of the present application, and the protection scope of the present application is not limited thereto. Therefore, any equivalent changes made according to the structure, shape, and principle of the present application should be included in the protection scope of the present application.
