Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of tofu bottling devices, and particularly relates to a clamping and forming mechanism for tofu embryo blocks. Background Art

[0002] Tofu, also known as fermented bean curd, pickled bean curd, moldy bean curd, etc., is a seasoning and tableware product made from soybeans through processes such as grinding, making blanks, culturing, and fermenting. It is a traditional Chinese folk food. In the production process of tofu embryo blocks, the bottling process of tofu embryo blocks is essential.

[0003] During manual or semi-automatic bottling, it is often difficult to accurately arrange and clamp the tofu embryo blocks into the shape of the glass bottle mouth, resulting in an uneven appearance of the bottled product. There may even be situations where the tofu embryo blocks are broken or misaligned. This not only affects the aesthetics of the product but also may affect its shelf life and sales value.

[0004] The existing bottling equipment may lack sufficient automation and cannot adapt to glass bottles of different specifications and shapes as well as tofu embryo blocks of different densities. This leads to a large amount of manual intervention required when changing product types or adjusting production parameters, reducing production efficiency and flexibility. Summary of the Utility Model

[0005] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a clamping and forming mechanism for tofu embryo blocks to solve the technical defects in the prior art, such as low efficiency of manual or semi-automatic bottling of tofu embryo blocks, difficult to guarantee bottling quality, low automation degree, poor flexibility, and inability to achieve continuous and stable production.

[0006] To solve the above technical problems, the technical solution adopted by the utility model is as follows:

[0007] A clamping and forming mechanism for tofu embryo blocks, comprising:

[0008] A clamping bottling mechanism for receiving a number of arranged tofu embryo blocks, clamping the tofu embryo blocks into the shape of the glass bottle mouth, and pushing the formed tofu embryo blocks into the bottle to form a bottling action;

[0010] Further, the left movable enclosure component and the right movable enclosure component have the same structure. The left movable enclosure component includes a middle arc-shaped enclosure and an upper arc-shaped enclosure. The lower end of the middle arc-shaped enclosure is rotatably connected to the left side of the lower arc-shaped enclosure, and the upper end of the middle arc-shaped enclosure is rotatably connected to the lower end of the upper arc-shaped enclosure.

[0011] Further, lower hinge prisms are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the lower arc-shaped enclosure. Corresponding to the lower hinge prisms, middle hinge grooves for hinged cooperation are provided at the lower end of the middle arc-shaped enclosure. A middle hinge prism is provided at the upper end of the middle arc-shaped enclosure, and corresponding to the middle hinge prism, upper hinge grooves for hinged cooperation are provided at the lower end of the upper arc-shaped enclosure. When the left movable enclosure component, the right movable enclosure component, and the lower arc-shaped enclosure are in the enclosed state, a circular clamping inner cavity with a forward opening is formed; when the left movable enclosure component, the right movable enclosure component, and the lower arc-shaped enclosure are in the unfolded state, they form a linear structure.

[0012] Further, arc-shaped clamping walls are convexly provided on the rear inner walls of the lower arc-shaped enclosure, the middle arc-shaped enclosure, and the upper arc-shaped enclosure.

[0032] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention are described clearly and completely below. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of them. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0033] In the description of the present invention, it should be understood that the terms "upper", "lower", "front", "back", "vertical", "horizontal", "inside", "outside", etc., indicating orientations or positional relationships, are based on the orientations or positional relationships shown in the accompanying 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.

[0034] In the present invention, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, the terms "install", "connect", "connect", "fix" and the like should be understood in a broad sense, for example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium, it can be the internal connection of two elements or the interaction relationship between two elements. For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0035] In the present utility model, unless otherwise clearly specified and defined, the first feature being "on" or "under" the second feature may mean that the first and second features are in direct contact, or the first and second features are in indirect contact through an intermediate medium. Moreover, the first feature being "above", "over" and "on top of" the second feature may mean that the first feature is directly above or obliquely above the second feature, or merely indicates that the first feature has a higher horizontal height than the second feature. The first feature being "under", "beneath" and "underneath" the second feature may mean that the first feature is directly below or obliquely below the second feature, or merely indicates that the first feature has a lower horizontal height than the second feature.

[0036] As Figures 1-14 shown, a device for bottling tofu embryo blocks, which is used for automatically bottling the tofu embryo blocks 7, includes:

[0037] A bottle feeding mechanism 1, which is used for feeding and discharging the glass bottles 2 before and after bottling.

[0038] A bottle picking mechanism 5, which is used for automatically grasping the glass bottle 2 located at the bottle grasping position of the bottle feeding mechanism 1 and conveying the glass bottle 2 from the bottle grasping position to the bottling position.

[0039] A clamp-shaped bottling mechanism 4, which is used for receiving a plurality of arranged tofu embryo blocks 7, clamping the tofu embryo blocks 7 into the shape of the mouth of the glass bottle 2, and pushing and pressing the formed tofu embryo blocks into the bottle to form a bottling action.

[0040] An embryo feeding mechanism 6, which is used for conveying the arranged tofu embryo blocks 7 to the embryo grasping station.

[0041] An embryo grasping and conveying mechanism 8, which is used for grasping the tofu embryo blocks 7 located at the embryo grasping station and conveying the tofu embryo blocks 7 to the embryo receiving position of the clamp-shaped bottling mechanism 4.

[0042] The present utility model provides a device for bottling tofu embryo blocks. Through a highly integrated automated design, it completely subverts the traditional manual bottling mode. The coordinated operation of the bottle feeding mechanism, bottle picking mechanism, clamp-shaped bottling mechanism, embryo feeding mechanism and embryo grasping and conveying mechanism realizes a continuous and automated operation process from the automatic feeding, grasping and positioning of the glass bottle to the precise grasping, arranging, clamping and forming of the tofu embryo blocks, and then to the final pushing and pressing into the bottle. This process greatly shortens the production cycle, significantly improves the production efficiency, making it possible to produce tofu embryo blocks in large scale and with high efficiency. This device not only improves the production efficiency, but also ensures the bottling quality and product hygiene, while reducing the labor cost and scrap rate, which is an important improvement to the traditional technology.

[0043] As a further optional mode of the utility model, a support frame 3 is set up at the bottling position, and the embryo grabbing and conveying mechanism 8 includes a lifting embryo grabbing component and a transverse movement component transversely arranged on the support frame 3 for driving the lifting embryo grabbing component to move back and forth between the embryo grabbing station and the embryo receiving station. Through the coordinated work of the lifting embryo grabbing component and the transverse movement component, the bottle embryo is quickly and accurately transferred between the embryo grabbing station and the embryo receiving station. This automated transmission method greatly improves production efficiency and reduces manual intervention and waiting time.

[0044] As a further optional mode of the utility model, the transverse movement assembly includes a crossbeam 81 horizontally mounted on the support frame 3, and a first cross rail 82 and a transverse rack 83 are laterally fixedly arranged on the front side of the cross beam 81, a fixed plate 84 is slidably arranged on the first cross rail 82, and a transverse movement motor 85 is fixedly arranged on the fixed plate 84, and the output shaft of the transverse movement motor 85 is fixedly connected to the transverse movement gear, and the transverse movement gear is meshingly transmission-connected with the transverse rack 83.

[0045] When the lifting embryo grabbing assembly needs to be moved, the control system issues an instruction to start the transverse motor 85. After the transverse motor 85 is started, its output shaft drives the transverse gear to rotate. Since the transverse gear is meshed with the transverse rack 83, the rotating transverse gear will generate power for linear motion along the direction of the rack. Under the meshing transmission of the transverse gear and the transverse rack 83, the fixed plate 84 slides along the first transverse rail 82. This sliding is smooth and controllable, ensuring the stability and accuracy of the lifting embryo grabbing assembly during movement. By controlling the forward and reverse rotation of the transverse motor 85, the fixed plate 84 and the lifting embryo grabbing assembly fixed thereon can be reciprocated between the embryo grabbing station and the embryo receiving station. When it is necessary to move to the embryo receiving station, the transverse motor 85 rotates forward; when it is necessary to return to the embryo grabbing station, the transverse motor 85 rotates reversely. When the lifting embryo grabbing assembly reaches the specified position (such as the embryo grabbing station or the embryo receiving station), the control system issues a stop instruction, the transverse motor 85 stops working, and the fixed plate 84 and the lifting embryo grabbing assembly stop moving and remain at the current position.

[0046] As a further optional mode of the utility model, the lifting and embryo grabbing assembly includes a lifting cylinder 86 vertically fixed on the front side of the fixed plate 84, the gas rod of the lifting cylinder 86 is fixedly connected to the top of the grabbing base plate 87, and the bottom of the grabbing base plate 87 is fixedly provided with a second cross rail 871 along the horizontal direction, and a plurality of grabbing units 89 are slidably fitted on the second cross rail 871, and the side of the grabbing base plate 87 is provided with an adjusting cylinder 88 for adjusting the grabbing spacing of the grabbing units 89.

[0047] In the starting stage, the lifting cylinder 86 is in an inactive state, and its air rod is in a fully retracted state. Therefore, the grasping substrate 87 and all components thereon (including the second cross rail 871, the grasping unit 89, etc.) are located at the highest position, far from the tofu embryo block. At this time, the adjusting cylinder 88 has also adjusted the grasping spacing between the grasping units 89 according to preset or current requirements to ensure that the tofu embryo block can be accurately and effectively grasped. When the system receives the grasping instruction, the lifting cylinder 86 is first activated. The air rod of the lifting cylinder 86 starts to extend, pushing the grasping substrate 87 and all components thereon to move vertically downward, gradually approaching the tofu embryo block. During this process, the second cross rail 871 and the grasping units 89 thereon remain relatively stationary, waiting to contact the material. During the descent of the grasping substrate 87, if it is found that the preset grasping spacing does not match the actual situation of the tofu embryo block, the spacing between the grasping units 89 can be finely adjusted by controlling the adjusting cylinder 88. This step is optional and depends on the specific application scenario and material characteristics. When the grasping substrate 87 and the grasping units 89 thereon descend to a predetermined height (i.e., the height at which they contact the tofu embryo block), the grasping mechanism of the grasping unit 89 starts to work, contacts the surface of the material, and firmly grasps the tofu embryo block.

[0048] As a further optional mode of the present utility model, each of the grasping units 89 includes a sliding seat 891 slidably connected to the second cross rail 871. A grasping cylinder 892 is vertically and downwardly fixed to the bottom of the sliding seat 891. A pin top plate 893 is horizontally arranged on the bottom side of the grasping cylinder 892. Two rows of pins 894 are symmetrically and vertically downwardly arranged on both sides of the pin top plate 893 along its length direction. Each of the pins 894 in the same row is evenly spaced. The bottom end of each of the pins 894 has a pointed end for facilitating insertion into the tofu embryo block 7. An embryo block pushing plate 895 is vertically slidably connected to the pin 894. The air rod of the grasping cylinder 892 is fixedly connected to the embryo block pushing plate 895.

[0049] In each grasping unit 89, the sliding seat 891 is adjusted to an appropriate position fixed on the second cross rail 871 by the adjusting cylinder 88 to ensure that the spacing between the grasping units 89 meets the current operation requirements. At this time, the grasping cylinder 892 is in an inactive state and its air rod is in a contracted state. Therefore, the pin top plate 893 and the two rows of pins 894 are also in a higher position. Although the tip ends of the pins 894 are ready to insert into the tofu embryo block 7, they have not actually made contact. As the entire grasping substrate 87 descends (driven by the lifting cylinder 86), the grasping unit 89 also descends until the tip ends of the pins 894 approach the upper side of the tofu embryo block 7. At this stage, the sliding seat 891 remains stationary on the cross rail and does not participate in any horizontal movement. When the grasping unit 89 reaches the predetermined position (i.e., the tip ends of the pins 894 contact or are close to contacting the surface of the tofu embryo block 7), the lifting cylinder 86 starts to be activated and its air rod starts to extend. Since the tip ends of the pins 894 are relatively sharp, they will first push the tip ends of the pins 894 to insert into the tofu embryo block 7. The uniform spacing of the pins 894 ensures that they can penetrate the tofu embryo block 7 evenly, thereby providing stable grasping points to achieve grasping. At this stage, the tofu embryo block 7 is firmly clamped by the two rows of pins 894 and is ready for subsequent moving operations. Once the tofu embryo block 7 is successfully grasped, the entire grasping substrate 87 (including all the grasping units 89 and the grasped tofu embryo block 7) can be continuously driven to rise by the lifting cylinder 86 and is driven to move laterally by the lateral movement assembly to transport the tofu embryo block 7 to the embryo receiving station. When the tofu embryo block 7 is moved to the embryo receiving station, the air rod of the grasping cylinder 892 starts to extend. Thereby pushing the embryo block push plate 895 to move downward, thereby pushing the tofu embryo block 7 to fall off the pins 894 and remain at the target position. After that, the grasping unit 89 can return to the initial state and be ready for the next grasping operation.

[0050] As a further optional mode of the present utility model, an adjusting positioning block 896 is provided between two adjacent sliding seats 891. A long hole 898 is horizontally provided in the middle of the adjusting positioning block 896. The two sides of the adjusting positioning block 896 are positioned on the adjacent sliding seats 891 through stud screws 897 in cooperation with the long hole 898. The stud screws 897 can move horizontally along the long hole 898. The air rod of the adjusting cylinder 88 is fixedly connected to the side part of the outermost sliding seat 891.

[0051] When it is necessary to adjust the relative position between the sliding seats, first start the adjusting cylinder 88. The air rod of the adjusting cylinder 88 moves the outermost sliding seat 891 through its telescopic movement. Since both sides of the adjusting positioning block 896 are connected to the adjacent sliding seat 891 by stud screws 897, and the stud screws can move along the long holes 898, the sliding seat will drive the adjusting positioning block to move together when moving. During this process, the stud screws 897 will move horizontally along the long holes 898 to adapt to the position change between the sliding seats. By adjusting the telescopic amount of the air rod of the adjusting cylinder 88, the relative position between the sliding seats can be accurately controlled, so as to achieve the required positioning effect. After the sliding seat moves to the predetermined position, the position of the stud screw 897 in the long hole 898 can be adjusted to further fix the sliding seat to ensure its stability. The fastening effect of the stud screw can prevent the sliding seat from unnecessary movement or deviation during subsequent work.

[0052] As a further optional mode of the utility model, a cross plate is horizontally installed on the support frame 3, and a vertical frame 41 is vertically arranged on the cross plate. The clamp-shaped bottle loading mechanism 4 includes a lower arc-shaped enclosing plate 42 horizontally arranged on the vertical frame 41, a left movable enclosing plate assembly, a right movable enclosing plate assembly symmetrically and rotatably arranged on both sides of the lower arc-shaped enclosing plate 42, and a telescopic assembly symmetrically arranged on both sides of the support frame 3 for driving the left movable enclosing plate assembly and the right movable enclosing plate assembly to perform enclosing and unfolding actions. It also includes a blank pushing and bottle loading assembly fixedly arranged at the rear side of the lower arc-shaped enclosing plate 42 for performing bottle loading actions. The structures of the left movable enclosing plate assembly and the right movable enclosing plate assembly are the same. The left movable enclosing plate assembly includes a middle arc-shaped enclosing plate 43 and an upper arc-shaped enclosing plate 44. The lower end of the middle arc-shaped enclosing plate 43 is rotatably connected to the left side of the lower arc-shaped enclosing plate 42, and the upper end of the middle arc-shaped enclosing plate 43 is rotatably connected to the lower end of the upper arc-shaped enclosing plate 44. Lower hinge prisms 421 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the lower arc-shaped enclosing plate 42. The lower end of the middle arc-shaped enclosing plate 43 is correspondingly provided with middle hinge grooves 431 hinged and matched with the lower hinge prisms 421. The upper end of the middle arc-shaped enclosing plate 43 is provided with middle hinge prisms 432. The lower end of the upper arc-shaped enclosing plate 44 is correspondingly provided with upper hinge grooves 441 hinged and matched with the middle hinge prisms 432. When the left movable enclosing plate assembly, the right movable enclosing plate assembly and the lower arc-shaped enclosing plate 42 are in the enclosing state, a circular clamp-shaped inner cavity with a forward opening is formed; when the left movable enclosing plate assembly, the right movable enclosing plate assembly and the lower arc-shaped enclosing plate 42 are in the unfolded state, they form a linear structure.

[0053] In the initial state, the left movable baffle assembly and the right movable baffle assembly are respectively located on both sides of the lower arc baffle 42 and are both in the unfolded state. At this time, the left movable baffle assembly (including the middle arc baffle 43 and the upper arc baffle 44) is symmetrical with the right movable baffle assembly, and the whole mechanism is in a linear structure, and the circular clamping inner cavity is in an open state. The tofu embryo blocks are accurately placed on the embryo receiving station.

[0054] When bottling is required, the telescopic assemblies on both sides start to work, pushing the left movable baffle assembly and the right movable baffle assembly to move inward simultaneously. The lower end of the middle arc baffle 43 is hinged with the lower hinge prisms 421 on both sides of the lower arc baffle 42 through the middle hinge groove 431, so that the middle arc baffle 43 can rotate around the lower hinge prism 421. At the same time, the upper end of the middle arc baffle 43 is hinged with the upper hinge groove 441 at the lower end of the upper arc baffle 44 through the middle hinge prism 432, so that the upper arc baffle 44 can rotate around the middle hinge prism 432. With the push of the telescopic assemblies, the left movable baffle assembly and the right movable baffle assembly gradually enclose inward until they are closely attached to the lower arc baffle 42, thereby clamping a number of square tofu embryo blocks into a circular structure. Since the tofu embryo blocks have a certain deformation ability, the tofu embryo blocks will not be damaged during the clamping and forming process.

[0055] After the tofu embryo blocks are clamped and formed, the embryo pushing and bottling assembly starts to work. This assembly is located at the rear side of the lower arc baffle 42 and is responsible for pushing the clamped and formed tofu embryo blocks into the glass bottle 2 located at the embryo loading station. Since the size and shape of the circular clamping inner cavity match the items to be bottled, it can ensure that the tofu embryo can be smoothly pushed into the glass bottle.

[0056] After bottling is completed, the telescopic assembly can work in reverse to restore to the initial linear structure state. Wait for the next clamping and forming process.

[0057] As a further optional way of the present utility model, arc-shaped clamping walls 49 are convexly provided on the inner walls at the rear sides of the lower arc baffle 42, the middle arc baffle 43, and the upper arc baffle 44. The embryo pushing and bottling assembly includes a bottling cylinder 47 and a bottling push plate 48 fixedly arranged at the rod end of the embryo pushing cylinder 47. When in the enclosed state, the bottling push plate 48 is movably accommodated in the clamping inner cavity. The arc-shaped clamping walls 49 are provided to form a limiting ring at the rear side of the clamping inner cavity after enclosure, preventing the bottling push plate from coming out.

[0058] As a further optional way of the present utility model, the telescopic assembly includes a telescopic cylinder 45. The lower end of the telescopic cylinder 45 is hinged with a cross plate, and the rod end of the telescopic cylinder 45 is hinged with a baffle ear 46. The baffle ear 46 is fixedly arranged on the outer side of the upper arc baffle 44.

[0059] As a further optional mode of the present utility model, the bottle taking mechanism 5 includes a rotary cylinder 51 fixed on the cross plate. The rotary cylinder 51 is drivingly connected to a mounting plate 52. An outer side of the mounting plate 52 is fixedly connected with a bottle taking cylinder 53. A rod end of the bottle taking cylinder 53 is fixedly connected with a bottle taking block 54. A bottle taking side of the bottle taking block 54 is correspondingly arranged in an arc structure adapted to the glass bottle 2. A middle part of the bottle taking block 54 is provided with a vacuum suction head 55 for tightly sucking the glass bottle.

[0060] When it is necessary to take a bottle, first start the rotary cylinder 51. A driving end of the rotary cylinder drives the mounting plate 52 and the bottle taking cylinder 53 and the bottle taking block 54 thereon to rotate around the axis of the rotary cylinder to a predetermined position. After rotating in place, the bottle taking cylinder 53 starts to work. Its rod gradually extends, pushing the bottle taking block 54 to move until the arc structure of the bottle taking block 54 is closely attached to the outer contour of the glass bottle 2. At the same time, the vacuum suction head 55 starts to work, generating negative pressure to firmly suck the glass bottle 2 on the bottle taking block 54. After the glass bottle is successfully sucked tightly, the rod of the bottle taking cylinder 53 starts to contract. Subsequently, the rotary cylinder 51 is started again to rotate the mounting plate 52 and the load thereon (including the bottle taking cylinder 53, the bottle taking block 54 and the glass bottle) to the embryo receiving station, waiting for the bottling operation.

[0061] As a further optional mode of the present utility model, the bottle feeding mechanism 1 includes a bottle feeding conveyor 11, a bottling conveyor 12, and a bottle discharging conveyor 13 for conveying the glass bottles 2. The bottle feeding conveyor 11, the bottling conveyor 12, and the bottle discharging conveyor 13 are synchronous belt type conveying devices and conveying channels of the three are interconnected. Guardrails 14 for preventing the glass bottles 2 from falling off are erected on the bottle feeding conveyor 11, the bottling conveyor 12, and the bottle discharging conveyor 13 through brackets 15. A bottle taking port 16 is formed at a side part of the bottling conveyor 12 corresponding to the position of the bottle taking mechanism 5. Front bottle blocking assemblies 17 and rear bottle blocking assemblies 18 are correspondingly arranged on front and rear sides of the bottle taking port 16.

[0062] With the continuous operation of the bottle feeding conveyor 11, the glass bottles are successively conveyed to the junction connected to the bottling conveyor 12. Since the conveying channels of the bottle feeding conveyor 11, the bottling conveyor 12, and the bottle discharging conveyor 13 are interconnected, the glass bottles can smoothly transfer from one conveyor to the next conveyor (manually transferred by staff when necessary). When the glass bottle enters the bottling conveyor 12, the foremost glass bottle is blocked between the front bottle blocking assembly 17 and the rear bottle blocking assembly 18, waiting to be taken. After completing a bottling operation, the bottle taking mechanism places the glass bottle back on the bottling conveyor 12. At this time, the rear bottle blocking assembly 18 is unlocked, enabling the bottled glass bottle to move towards the bottle discharging conveyor 13.

[0063] As a further optional mode of the present utility model, the structures of the front bottle-blocking assembly 17 and the rear bottle-blocking assembly 18 are the same. The front bottle-blocking assembly 17 includes a bottle-blocking cylinder 173 fixedly arranged on the side of the bottle-filling conveyor 12. A connecting rod 172 is horizontally connected to the rod end of the bottle-blocking cylinder 173. A blocking rod 171 is fixedly connected to the connecting rod 172. The blocking rod 171 can movably extend into the conveying channel of the bottle-filling conveyor 12 to form bottle-blocking and bottle-releasing actions. During use, the extension and retraction of the railing 171 are driven by the bottle-blocking cylinder 173, thereby realizing the bottle-blocking and bottle-releasing operations.

[0064] As a further optional mode of the present utility model, the embryo feeding mechanism 6 is a synchronous belt type conveying device, and the arranged and stacked tofu embryo blocks 7 are conveyed by the embryo feeding mechanism 6.

[0065] The above are only the preferred embodiments of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present utility model shall be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0066] In addition, it should be understood that although this specification is described according to the embodiments, not every embodiment only contains an independent technical solution. This narrative way of the specification is only for clarity. Those skilled in the art should regard the specification as a whole, and the technical solutions in each embodiment can also be appropriately combined to form other embodiments that can be understood by those skilled in the art.
