Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application belongs to the field of pasta processing, and particularly relates to a pasta hanging and conveying device. Background Art

[0002] With the continuous progress of food processing technology and the increasing market demand, the industrial food production field has witnessed rapid development. In China, when traditional special buns such as steamed buns and meat buns are produced in factories, from forming to subsequent processes such as entering the proofing room and cooling room, traditionally, it often relies on workers to push small carts for transfer. The manual transfer speed is limited and it is difficult to meet the needs of large-scale production. In the case of large production volumes, this will lead to a significant increase in the labor intensity of workers.

[0003] To solve the problems of low efficiency and dependence on manual operation in the proofing and cooling links of traditional pasta production, there are various existing automated conveying devices applied in the conveying link of pasta production. For example, a hanging conveying system can reduce the floor space occupation. The tray cart containing pasta is hung up through a hook to achieve automatic conveying. The hook, as a key component connecting the cart containing pasta and the hanging conveying line, its operation convenience and efficiency directly affect the automation level and production efficiency of the entire production line. However, in actual operation, it is necessary for workers to manually assist in hanging the hook on the hook part at the center position of the top of the cart. Affected by the height and width of the tray cart, workers need to lift their arms more laboriously or use auxiliary tools to accurately hang the hook at the center position of the top of the cart. This not only increases the physical consumption of workers, but also may increase the difficulty and danger of operation due to blocked vision. Due to the increased difficulty of hook operation, the hook time required for each cart will be correspondingly extended, thus reducing the conveying efficiency of the entire production line. It can be seen that the existing technology needs to be further improved. Summary of the Utility Model

[0004] The utility model provides a pasta hanging and conveying device, which effectively solves the problems of low efficiency, dependence on manual labor and potential safety hazards in the hook operation during the hanging conveying process in traditional pasta production by combining a pasta carrying cart, a hanging ramp and an innovative hanging conveying system.

[0005] To achieve the above object, the utility model provides the following technical solutions:

[0006] A pasta hanging and conveying device includes a pasta carrying cart, a hanging ramp and a hanging conveying system;

[0007] The pasta carrying cart is provided with a hook part;

[0008] The hanging ramp is arranged on the ground to facilitate workers to push the pasta carrying cart to the hanging height;

[0009] The hanging conveying system is provided with hooks. The hooks are provided with a to-be-hung position and a locked position. When the hook is in the to-be-hung position, the plane where the tip of the hook is located is lower than the entrance of the hook part of the trolley. As the hook moves along the conveying line, its tip can easily enter the hook part of the trolley. After the pasta-carrying trolley is lifted away from the mounting ramp by the hook, under the weight of the pasta-carrying trolley, the hook is switched from the to-be-hung position to the locked position, and the plane where the tip of the hook is located is higher than the hook part, realizing firm mounting and improving the mounting efficiency.

[0010] In the pasta mounting and conveying device of the present application, the design of the mounting ramp enables workers to easily push the pasta-carrying trolley to a suitable mounting height without having to lift the trolley with great effort or look for other auxiliary tools, greatly reducing the physical consumption of workers, improving the convenience of the mounting operation. When the hook is in the to-be-hung position, the tip plane is lower than the entrance of the hook part of the trolley, facilitating easy entry into the hook part of the trolley. Once the trolley is lifted away from the mounting ramp by the hook, the hook automatically switches to the locked position under the action of the weight of the trolley, realizing firm mounting. This process requires no manual intervention, significantly improving the mounting efficiency. Workers no longer need to lift their arms with great effort or use auxiliary tools for the hooking operation, reducing the operation difficulty and reducing potential safety hazards caused by blocked vision or improper operation.

[0011] In a preferred implementation, the hook includes a hook part, a rod part, and a spring. The hook is rotatably arranged on the mounting seat of the hanging conveying system. One end of the spring is connected to the rod part, and the other end is connected to the mounting seat. In the unmounted state, the hook part can be kept in the to-be-hung position under the action of the spring. In the mounted state, the hook part can be switched to the locked position.

[0012] When the pasta-carrying trolley is pushed to the mounting ramp and ready for mounting, the hook is already in the optimal position for the access of the hook part of the trolley. When the pasta-carrying trolley is lifted away from the mounting ramp by the hook, the hook part will rotate under the action of the weight of the trolley, thus switching from the to-be-hung position to the locked position. This switching process requires no manual intervention, realizing automatic locking and mounting. After the mounting is completed, when the hook needs to release the pasta-carrying trolley, a reverse force is applied to the hook to make it rotate back from the locked position to the to-be-hung position. At the same time, the elastic force of the spring will also assist this process to ensure that the hook can quickly and accurately return to its original position. This function of automatic unloading and reset improves the continuity and efficiency of the production line.

[0013] In a preferred implementation, when the hook part is kept in the to-be-hung position, the rod part is parallel to the horizontal plane.

[0014] In a preferred implementation, the slope angle α of the mounting ramp satisfies 10° ≤ α ≤ 15°.

[0015] In a preferred implementation, the mounting ramp is provided with a limiting member, and the pasta-carrying trolley abuts against the limiting member to prevent the trolley from being pushed too far.

[0016] In a preferred implementation, the mounting ramp is connected to a horizontal platform. The pasta-carrying trolley is pushed from the mounting ramp to the horizontal platform to wait for the hook. The design of the horizontal platform provides a stable waiting area for the pasta-carrying trolley. With this design, workers only need to push the trolley from the mounting ramp to the horizontal platform, and the simplified operation process further reduces the labor intensity of workers and improves their work efficiency.

[0017] In a preferred implementation, the mounting ramp and the horizontal platform are made of high-strength aluminum alloy and can be moved to change the mounting position.

[0018] In a preferred implementation, there is also an unloading ramp. The unloading ramp and the mounting ramp are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the horizontal platform. After the suspension conveying system stops, the pasta-carrying trolley is unhooked after passing through the mounting ramp, the horizontal platform and the unloading ramp in sequence in the direction away from the hook.

[0019] In a preferred implementation, the pasta-carrying trolley is provided with a receiving part. The receiving part is provided with a plugging groove / plug. The plugging groove / plug is perpendicular to the conveying direction of the pasta-carrying trolley. The bottom of the tray for holding pasta is provided with a plug / plugging groove, and the plugging groove and the plug are connected in a matching manner. Description of the Drawings

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0027] In the following, only some exemplary embodiments are briefly described. As those skilled in the art will appreciate, the described embodiments may be modified in various ways without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Therefore, the drawings and descriptions are considered to be exemplary and non-restrictive in nature.

[0028] In the description of the present invention, it should be understood that the terms "center", "upper", "lower", "front", "back", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inner", "outer", "axial", "radial", "circumferential" and the like indicate positions or positional relationships based on the positions or positional relationships shown in the drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing the present invention and simplifying the description, rather than indicating or implying that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore cannot be understood as a limitation on the present invention. In the present invention, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, a first feature being "upper" or "lower" than a second feature may be the first and second features directly contacting, or the first and second features indirectly contacting through an intermediate medium.

[0029] In the present utility model, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, the terms "installed", "connected", "connected", "fixed" and the like should be understood in a broad sense. For example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral one; it can be directly connected, or indirectly connected through an intermediate medium, it can be the internal connection of two elements or the interaction relationship between two elements. However, if it is indicated as a direct connection, it means that the two connected bodies are not connected through an intermediate structure, but are connected to form a whole only through a connecting structure. For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present utility model can be understood according to the specific circumstances.

[0030] In the present invention, the descriptions of "first", "second", etc. are only used for descriptive purposes and cannot be understood as indicating or implying their relative importance or implicitly indicating the number of the indicated technical features. Therefore, the features defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one of the features.

[0031] The utility model is described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0032] The specific solution adopted is as follows:

[0033] As Figures 1-4 shown, the utility model provides a pasta hanging and conveying device, which includes a pasta carrying trolley 1, a hanging ramp 2 and a suspension conveying system 3;

[0034] The pasta carrying trolley is provided with a hook part 10;

[0035] The hanging ramp is arranged on the ground, which is convenient for workers to push the pasta carrying trolley to the hanging height;

[0036] The suspension conveying system is provided with a lifting hook 30. The lifting hook has a position to be hung and a locking position. When the lifting hook is in the position to be hung, the plane where the tip of the lifting hook is located is lower than the entrance of the hook part of the trolley. As the lifting hook moves along the conveying line, its tip can easily enter the hook part of the trolley. After the pasta carrying trolley 1 is lifted away from the hanging ramp by the lifting hook, under the weight of the pasta carrying trolley, the lifting hook is switched from the position to be hung to the locking position, and the plane where the tip of the lifting hook is located is higher than the hook part, realizing firm hanging and improving the hanging efficiency.

[0037] In the above structure, the design of the hanging ramp enables workers to easily push the pasta carrying trolley to the appropriate hanging height without having to lift the trolley with effort or look for other auxiliary tools, greatly reducing the physical consumption of workers and improving the convenience of the hanging operation. When the lifting hook is in the position to be hung, the tip plane is lower than the entrance of the hook part of the trolley, facilitating easy entry into the hook part of the trolley. Once the trolley is lifted away from the hanging ramp by the lifting hook, the lifting hook automatically switches to the locking position under the action of the weight of the trolley, realizing firm hanging. This process requires no manual intervention, significantly improving the hanging efficiency. Workers no longer have to lift their arms with effort or use auxiliary tools for the hooking operation, reducing the operation difficulty and the potential safety hazards caused by blocked vision or improper operation.

[0038] The automated hanging and conveying system can be seamlessly connected with other automated equipment, such as an automatic proofing room, an automatic steaming device, etc., to form a complete automated production line, further improving the overall production efficiency and product quality.

[0039] See Figure 1 and Figure 2, the hook includes a hook portion 300, a rod portion 301, and a spring 302. The hook is rotatably provided on the mounting seat 31 of the suspension conveying system. One end of the spring is connected to the rod portion, and the other end is connected to the mounting seat. In the unloaded state, the hook portion can be kept at the waiting-to-be-hooked position under the action of the spring. In the loaded state, the hook portion can be switched to the locked position. The introduction of the spring enables the hook to automatically stay at the waiting-to-be-hooked position in the unloaded state. When the pasta-carrying trolley is pushed to the loading ramp and ready to be loaded, the hook is already in the optimal position, facilitating the access of the trolley's hook portion and improving the convenience of loading. When the pasta-carrying trolley is lifted from the loading ramp by the hook, the hook portion will rotate under the action of the trolley's weight, thus switching from the waiting-to-be-hooked position to the locked position. This switching process requires no manual intervention, achieving automatic locking and loading. The design of the locked position ensures a firm connection between the hook and the trolley's hook portion, preventing accidental detachment during the loading process. After the loading is completed, when the hook needs to release the pasta-carrying trolley, a reverse force is applied to the hook to make it rotate back from the locked position to the waiting-to-be-hooked position. At the same time, the elastic force of the spring also assists in this process, ensuring that the hook can quickly and accurately return to its original position. This function of automatic unloading and reset improves the continuity and efficiency of the production line.

[0040] As a preferred embodiment of the present application, when the hook portion 300 is kept at the waiting-to-be-hooked position, the rod portion is parallel to the horizontal plane. The state where the rod portion is parallel to the horizontal plane makes the hook portion present an open and easily recognizable posture when at the waiting-to-be-hooked position. This design enables workers to easily align and access the hook portion of the pasta-carrying trolley with the hook without complex adjustment or alignment operations.

[0041] As a preferred embodiment of the present application, the slope angle α of the loading ramp satisfies 10° ≤ α ≤ 15°. Within this slope range, workers can relatively easily push the pasta-carrying trolley up the loading ramp. The slope is not too steep, so workers don't need to exert too much effort to overcome gravity. When the slope is too large, the trolley may tip over due to unstable center of gravity, causing damage to workers and the pasta in the trolley. Within this reasonable slope range, the trolley can maintain a relatively stable state, ensuring the safety of the loading process.

[0042] Furthermore, the loading ramp is provided with a limiting member. The main function of the limiting member 20 is to prevent the pasta-carrying trolley from being pushed too far during the loading process. When the trolley is pushed to the limiting member, it will be blocked and unable to move forward further, avoiding the trolley from rushing out of the ramp due to inertia or operational errors, which may cause unnecessary damage or safety risks. After the trolley is pushed to abut against the limiting member, the worker no longer needs to exert much effort to push the trolley, but only needs to keep the trolley stable. This greatly simplifies the operation process of the worker, reduces the labor intensity, and improves the work efficiency. The worker can focus more attention on observing the connection between the hook and the hook part of the trolley to ensure the smooth progress of the loading. As the hook moves along the conveying line and approaches the hook part of the trolley, the worker can gradually withdraw the pushing force on the trolley until when the tip of the hook enters the hook part of the trolley and triggers the locking mechanism, the trolley will be smoothly taken away from the slope and enter the conveying state.

[0043] Furthermore, the loading ramp is connected to a horizontal platform 4. The pasta-carrying trolley is pushed from the loading ramp to the horizontal platform to wait for hooking. The design of the horizontal platform 4 provides a stable waiting area for the pasta-carrying trolley. Under this design, the worker only needs to push the trolley from the loading ramp to the horizontal platform. Certain limits can be set on the horizontal platform. When the trolley is pushed to the horizontal platform and touches the limit, the hook part of the trolley can be directly facing the conveying direction of the hook, ensuring the accuracy of the trolley during the loading process. The simplified operation process further reduces the labor intensity of the worker and improves their work efficiency.

[0044] In addition, the loading ramp and the horizontal platform are made of high-strength aluminum alloy and can be moved to change the loading position. The worker can easily move the loading ramp and the horizontal platform to a suitable position according to the production requirements or changes in the production line layout. This flexibility helps to adapt to different production scenarios and technological processes, improving the utilization rate and efficiency of the production line.

[0045] As a preferred embodiment of the present application, it further includes an unloading ramp 5. The unloading ramp and the loading ramp are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the horizontal platform. After the suspension conveying system stops, the worker pushes the pasta-carrying trolley and it will sequentially pass through the loading ramp, the horizontal platform, and the unloading ramp along a predetermined path. During this process, the height of the trolley will gradually decrease and the direction will change, and finally the hook part will be separated from the hook. This smooth unhooking process reduces the need for manual intervention, improving the degree of automation and production efficiency.

[0046] As a preferred embodiment of the present application, refer to Figure 4, the pasta-carrying trolley is provided with a receiving part 11. The receiving part is provided with a plug-in slot 110 which is perpendicular to the conveying direction of the pasta-carrying trolley. The bottom of the tray 6 for holding pasta is provided with a plug-in block 60. The plug-in slot and the plug-in block are connected in a matching manner. The setting of the receiving part enables the tray to be stably placed on the pasta-carrying trolley. The matching connection between the plug-in slot and the plug-in block forms a stable support structure, effectively preventing the possible sliding or falling out of the tray when the trolley tilts along the conveying direction. This design ensures the stability and safety of the tray and the pasta therein, reducing the losses and wastes caused by accidental dropping. In addition to preventing the tray from falling out, the connection method between the plug-in slot and the plug-in block also helps to reduce the impact of vibrations and bumps during the conveying process of the trolley on the tray and the pasta. This design reduces the risk of the pasta being damaged due to collisions or shaking, improving the integrity and quality of the product.

[0047] In the present utility model, those parts not described can be realized by adopting or referring to the existing technologies.

[0048] The above is only the specific implementation manner of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any person skilled in the art in the technical field disclosed by the present utility model can easily think of various changes or substitutions within the technical scope disclosed by the present utility model, and these should all be covered within the protection scope of the present utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of the present utility model shall be subject to the protection scope of the claims.
