Detailed implementation manners

[0035] As Figures 1 - 6 shown, a bagged noodle conveyor of the present utility model includes:

[0036] Bracket 1, the bracket 1 is a long strip-shaped frame body, welded by metal materials, and the upper surface is flat for installing other components.

[0037] Feeding belt 2, which is arranged at one end of the bracket 1 close to the feeding direction and extends along the bagged noodle conveying direction. Specifically, the feeding belt 2 is a common conveyor belt, located at the starting section of the bagged noodle conveying path. After the bagged noodles are ejected vertically by the noodle shooting machine, they enter the feeding belt 2, and the feeding belt 2 drives the bagged noodles to make a short-distance conveyance and enter the turnover area of the following supporting plate 3.

[0038] Supporting plate 3, the supporting plate 3 is specifically a long strip-shaped plate, arranged on the bracket 1. Specifically, it can be fixed on the bracket 1 by welding or bolt connection. The supporting plate 3 extends along the bagged noodle conveying direction. When the bagged noodles are placed on the supporting plate 3, under the action of the following noodle deflecting mechanism 4, the bagged noodles are deflected and conveyed on the supporting plate 3. For the convenience of description, the area above the supporting plate 3 for placing the bagged noodles is called the turnover area.

[0039] Noodle deflecting mechanism 4, which is arranged corresponding to the feeding belt 2 and the supporting plate 3. The noodle deflecting mechanism 4 includes a first driving module and a noodle deflecting member 41. The first driving module is linked with the noodle deflecting member 41 and is used to drive the noodle deflecting member 41 to intermittently enter the turnover area. Specifically, the movement track of the noodle deflecting member 41 is to rotate around the periphery of the supporting plate 3. Thus, when the noodle deflecting member 41 enters above the supporting plate 3, that is, enters the turnover area, and since the noodle deflecting member 41 is close to (but does not contact) the upper surface of the supporting plate 3, when the noodle deflecting member 41 enters the turnover area, if there are bagged noodles placed in the turnover area, it will deflect (or push) the bagged noodles forward for conveyance.

[0040] The bracket 1 has a blanking area on the side of the supporting plate 3 away from the feeding belt 2. Specifically, the bracket 1 is in a hollow structure at the end position of the blanking area. When the bagged noodles are conveyed here, they fall downward. A receiving plate with a certain slope is arranged below the blanking area of the bracket 1. When the bagged noodles fall downward to the receiving plate, they slide downward and enter the next process.

[0041] The noodle pushing mechanism 5 is arranged corresponding to the unloading area, specifically, corresponding to the front middle section of the unloading area. The noodle pushing mechanism 5 specifically includes a second driving module and a noodle pushing member 51. The second driving module is linked with the noodle pushing member 51 to provide power so that the noodle pushing member 51 can perform a crawler-like rotational motion above the unloading area. Therefore, when the noodle pushing member 51 is driven to enter the unloading area, if the bag noodles transported from the turnover area are placed in the front middle section of the unloading area, the noodle pushing member 51 will contact the bag noodles and push the bag noodles to move toward the end of the unloading area until it falls into the aforementioned receiving plate to complete the unloading.

[0042] Further, in this embodiment, please refer to Figure 3 The first driving module specifically includes a motor 42, a first transmission shaft 43 and a first transmission chain 44. The noodle-pushing member 41 includes a plurality of noodle-pushing rods extending along the width direction of the turnover zone, and the noodle-pushing rods are specifically round rods. There are two groups of first transmission shafts 43, and the two groups of first transmission shafts 43 are rotatably arranged at both ends of the turnover zone. Specifically, the axial direction of the first transmission shaft 43 is perpendicular to the direction of conveying the bag noodles. The motor 42 is connected to one of the first transmission shafts 43 in a transmission manner, for example, by a coupling to achieve power transmission.

[0043] A first transmission gear 45 is sleeved on each group of first transmission shafts 43. Specifically, there are four first transmission gears 45. The four first transmission gears 45 are respectively sleeved on the two ends of the two first transmission shafts 43. The two first transmission gears 45 on the same side of the two first transmission shafts 43 are called a group. There are two first transmission chains 44. Each first transmission chain 44 is simultaneously meshed with the two first transmission gears 45 in the same group, thereby forming a group of crawler-type transmission mechanism. When the motor 42 drives one of the first transmission shafts 43 to rotate, the first transmission chain 44 can be driven to rotate.

[0044] Several noodle-pushing rods are connected to the first transmission chain 44. Specifically, the two ends of the noodle-pushing rod are respectively connected to the first transmission chains 44 on both sides. The length direction of the noodle-pushing rod is perpendicular to the direction of bag surface conveying. Therefore, when the first transmission chain 44 rotates, it will drive the noodle-pushing rods to rotate synchronously. Therefore, when the noodle-pushing rods enter the turnover area, the first transmission chain 44 moves horizontally forward in this area, which will also drive the noodle-pushing rods to move horizontally forward, thereby realizing the forward conveying of the bag surface. Compared with the conveying method in the prior art that relies on the relative friction between the conveyor belt and the bag surface, the stability of this method of conveying the bag surface forward is greatly improved.

[0045] Further, in this embodiment, please continue to refer to Figure 3, the first driving module further includes a stabilizing gear, which is adapted to the first transmission chain 44. The stabilizing gear is a conventional gear, which is arranged in the middle of the first transmission chain 44 and meshes with the first transmission chain 44, playing a role of central support and stable transmission.

[0046] Further, in this embodiment, please refer in detail to Figure 4 , Figure 5 , the second driving module includes a synchronous gear set 52, a second transmission shaft 53, second transmission gears 54 and second transmission chains 55. The noodle pushing member 51 includes several noodle pushing plates. The number of the second transmission gears 54 is four, which are divided into two groups. The two groups of second transmission gears 54 are respectively arranged at both ends of the blanking area, and the two second transmission gears 54 in each group are oppositely arranged on both sides in the width direction of the blanking area. The second driving module further includes two second transmission shafts 53, which are respectively arranged at both ends of the blanking area. Similar to the foregoing noodle dialing mechanism 4, the four second transmission gears 54 are respectively sleeved at both ends of the two second transmission shafts 53. The number of the second transmission chains 55 is two, and each second transmission chain 55 meshes with the two second transmission gears 54 on the same side, thereby forming a crawler-type transmission mechanism.

[0047] The noodle pushing member 51 specifically includes several noodle pushing plates, and several noodle pushing plates are all connected to the second transmission chain 55. When the second transmission chain 55 rotates, it will drive the noodle pushing plates to rotate synchronously in a periodic manner. When the noodle pushing plates enter the blanking area, since the second transmission chain 55 extends horizontally in the blanking area, the noodle pushing plates move horizontally synchronously in the blanking area to push the bagged noodles forward horizontally.

[0048] The second transmission gear 54 is drivingly connected to the first transmission gear 45 through the synchronous gear set 52. Specifically, it is drivingly connected to the first transmission gear 45 close to one end of the noodle pushing mechanism 5. Exemplarily, the synchronous gear set 52 includes a first gear, a second gear, a third gear, an adjusting gear and a synchronous belt. The first gear is coaxially connected to the first transmission gear 45, the third gear is coaxially connected to the second transmission gear 54, the second gear is rotatably arranged beside and meshes with the third gear, and the first gear is drivingly connected to the second gear through the synchronous belt. Thus, when the first transmission gear 45 rotates, it will drive the second transmission gear 54 to rotate synchronously through the synchronous gear set 52. Thus, the noodle dialing mechanism 4 and the noodle pushing mechanism 5 can be respectively driven by a single power source, reducing the number of required motors 42 and lowering the equipment cost and operation cost.

[0049] Further, in this embodiment, please refer in detail to Figure 6, the second driving module further includes an arc-shaped connecting member 56 and a connecting rod 57. One end of the arc-shaped connecting member 56 is bolted to the second transmission chain 55, and the other end is bolted to the connecting rod 57. The other end of the connecting rod 57 is bolted to the push panel. Through the multi-section bolted connection structure of the arc-shaped connecting member 56 and the connecting rod 57, the relative posture between the push panel and the second transmission chain 55 can be adjusted. Thus, the position of the push panel can be flexibly adjusted according to the size of the bag surface to ensure that the push panel can stably push the bag surface.

[0050] Further, in this embodiment, a boss protrudes outward from the middle of the surface of the push panel for pushing the bag surface, so as to form push surface areas on both sides of the boss. The width of the push surface areas can be adapted to the width of the bag surface. Thus, when the push panel pushes the bag surface, the risk of the bag surface shifting and flattening can be reduced.

[0051] Further, in this embodiment, friction-increasing patterns are formed on the surface of the push surface areas. The friction-increasing patterns are used to increase the relative friction with the bag surface when pushing the bag surface and reduce the risk of the bag surface coming out of position.

[0052] Further, in this embodiment, the bag surface conveyor further includes a controller. The controller is electrically connected to the motor 42. The controller can be a conventional programmable logic controller or a microprocessor and is used to control the operation of the motor 42.

[0053] The working process of the bag surface conveyor in this embodiment will be fully described below in combination with the above content:

[0054] After the bag surface is ejected in a vertical state by the surface ejecting machine, it enters the feeding belt 2 and is conveyed forward by the feeding belt 2. At this time, the motor 42 rotates, driving the first transmission chain 44 to rotate, and then driving the surface deflecting rod to pass above the feeding belt 2 and the turnover area. At this time, the surface deflecting rod will deflect the bag surface from the feeding belt 2 into the turnover area and continuously deflect it forward until it is close to the blanking area.

[0055] When the motor 42 rotates, it synchronously drives the push surface mechanism 5 to act. When the push panel enters the blanking area, it will contact the bag surface in the blanking area and push the bag surface forward until it enters the receiving hopper below, completing the bag surface conveying process.

[0056] The bag surface conveyor of the present utility model replaces the structure of the long-distance conveyor belt of the traditional conveyor by setting the combined structure of the feeding belt 2 and the surface deflecting mechanism 4. This helps to simplify the equipment structure, reduce the equipment cost, operation cost, and the difficulty of daily maintenance, and helps to improve the stability of bag surface conveying;

[0057] The utility model combines a feeding belt 2, a noodle turning mechanism 4 and a noodle pushing mechanism 5 to realize the staged conveying of bagged noodles. On the one hand, this shortens the length of each conveying section, which is beneficial to improving the stability of bagged noodle conveying. On the other hand, it shortens the conveying cycle of bagged noodles in each stage, which is beneficial to improving the conveying efficiency of bagged noodles, and can flexibly adjust the conveying rhythm of bagged noodles according to the front and back processes, having better adjustability and applicability.

[0058] In the description of the present utility model, it should be understood that the orientation or positional relationship indicated by orientation words such as "front, back, up, down, left, right", "horizontal, vertical, horizontal" and "top, bottom", etc. is usually based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the drawings. It is only for the convenience of describing the present utility model and simplifying the description. Without contrary instructions, these orientation words do not indicate and imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, it cannot be understood as a limitation on the protection scope of the present utility model.
