Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of automatic feeding, in particular to a duck neck sorting and aligning frying equipment. Background Technique

[0002] In the food processing industry, especially for products such as duck necks that need to be fried, the traditional production process often relies on manual operation. Taking raw duck necks strung on steel skewers as an example, the current technological process usually includes pulling the raw duck necks through a wire drawing machine, and then the operating workers select, sort them, and manually put them into a frying machine for frying. However, this manual operation method has obvious drawbacks: First, manual selection and sorting of duck necks consume a large amount of human resources and time, reducing production efficiency; Second, since the duck necks are prone to being arranged unevenly when put into the frying machine, resulting in adhesion between the duck necks and affecting the frying effect; The most crucial is that the operating workers are exposed in front of the high-temperature oil pan during the manual feeding process, and are prone to being scalded due to oil droplets splashing, with relatively high safety risks.

[0003] In order to improve production efficiency, optimize product quality and reduce potential safety hazards, a device that can automatically complete the sorting and alignment of duck necks is needed to ensure that the duck necks are neatly arranged before entering the frying machine, reduce the adhesion phenomenon, lower the labor intensity of workers, and at the same time maximize the safety of operators. Therefore, this application proposes a duck neck sorting and aligning frying equipment. Content of the Utility Model

Detailed implementation manners

[0026] For easy understanding of the technical means, creative features, achieved purposes and functions of the present utility model, the present utility model will be further described below in conjunction with specific embodiments.

It is only for the convenience of describing the technical solutions of the present utility model 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 should not be construed as a limitation to the present utility model.

[0028] The present application provides a duck neck sorting and aligning deep-frying device, which forms an automated production line, liberates people from dangerous and heavy labor environments, and improves work efficiency.

[0029] The present application mainly consists of two wire drawing machines 1, a lifting mechanism 2 located in the middle of the two wire drawing machines 1, a step feeding and conveying mechanism 3 for conveying raw duck necks into the oil pan, a first photoelectric sensor 4 installed at the outlet end of the wire drawing machine 1, and a second photoelectric sensor 5 installed at the outlet end of the step feeding and conveying mechanism 3. Each structure is connected in parallel with an external PLC system, and regular movements between components are realized through the external PLC.

[0030] For reference Figure 1 , there are two wire drawing machines 1. The two wire drawing machines 1 are arranged on both sides of the lifting mechanism 2, and an outlet chute 6 is arranged at the outlet end of the wire drawing machine 1 facing the lifting mechanism 2 to smoothly convey the drawn duck necks onto the lifting mechanism 2; a first photoelectric sensor 4 is arranged at the outlet of the wire drawing machine to record the quantity of the discharged duck necks, so as to effectively control the start and stop of the lifting mechanism 2 through the PLC, and reduce the occurrence of irregular collisions when discharging the duck necks.

[0031] For reference Figure 1-2, the lifting mechanism 2 is used to convey the marinated duck necks after drawing upwards to the step feeding and conveying mechanism 3. During the conveying process, it is necessary to balance the stable output of the drawing machine 1 and the stability of the duck neck conveying. Therefore, the lifting mechanism 2 is composed of a support frame 21, two elevators 22, a buffer partition 23, and two outlet chutes 24. There are two groups of elevators 22 symmetrically arranged on the support frame 21 and moving relative to the two drawing machines 1. The elevators 22 receive the raw duck necks output from the outlet chutes 6 of the drawing machines 1 and convey the duck necks to the two outlet chutes 24 at the outlet ends of the two elevators 22, and the duck necks are conveyed downward through the two outlet chutes 24.

[0032] Furthermore, a buffer partition 23 is fixedly connected to the middle of the two groups of elevators 22, which can reduce the impact caused by the collision between the duck necks on both sides when the two drawing machines 1 convey the duck necks. At the same time, considering that both elevators 22 are in an uphill S shape and the duck necks are conveyed from bottom to top during the conveying process, there may be a situation where the duck necks fall during the conveying process. Therefore, a pressing plate 7 is provided at the uphill part of the support frame 21 along the elevators 22. Through the pressing plate 7, the problem of the duck necks falling can be effectively reduced and controlled. Moreover, the distance between the pressing plate 7 and the elevators 22 is adapted to the size of the duck necks to reduce the influence on the conveying of the elevators 22 caused by pressing the duck necks. At the same time, the pressing plate 7 is set to be detachably connected to the support frame 21, so as to facilitate the cleaning work inside after the pressing plate 7 is disassembled.

[0033] It should be noted that the elevator 22 is a mature existing technology, which has a driving part, a conveyor belt, and partitions arranged on the conveyor belt. The partitions can effectively separate the conveyed items and reduce the accumulation situation. When the drawing machine 1 outputs, the marinated duck necks after drawing are separately placed in the middle of two partitions. During the conveying process, the first photoelectric sensor 4 is used to reduce the collision with the partitions during the output. In implementing this embodiment, the first photoelectric sensor 4 is connected to the input port of the external PLC system through an electrical signal line, and the driving part of the elevator 22 in the lifting mechanism 2 is connected to the output port of the external PLC system. Thus, through the external PLC system, the data sensed by the first photoelectric sensor 4 about the output of the marinated duck necks by the drawing machine 1 is processed to realize the start and stop of the elevator 22, and the contact between the marinated duck necks and the partitions during the output of the drawing machine 1 can be effectively avoided.

[0034] In view of the above, the raw duck necks are conveyed upward by the elevator 22 of the hoisting mechanism 2 and fall onto the step feeding and conveying mechanism 3 after being output; in order to ensure that the duck necks are laid flat on the conveyor with a 5-mm spacing in the step feeding and conveying mechanism 3 and will not stick together or stack up before entering the frying machine, a second photoelectric sensor 5 is provided at the outlet of the outlet chute 6. The second photoelectric sensor 5 is connected to the input port of the external PLC system through an electrical signal line, and then the step feeding and conveying mechanism 3 is connected to the output port of the external PLC system; thus, the situation of the duck necks output from the outlet chute 6 after being drawn is recorded by the second photoelectric sensor 5, and then processed by the external PLC system. After processing, the signal is transmitted to the step feeding and conveying mechanism 3 to control the step feeding and conveying mechanism 3 to work with the corresponding control step rhythm according to the situation recorded by the second photoelectric sensor 5, so as to realize the stable output of the duck necks from the outlet chute 6 and ensure that there is a gap between each duck neck laid flat on the step feeding and conveying mechanism 3.

[0035] It should be noted that the external PLC system is a common existing automatic control system, and the present application will not elaborate on the processing and control of the system.

[0036] Meanwhile, reference can be made to Figure 1-2 , in different scenarios, the foundation supporting the device of the present application may be different. Therefore, the step feeding and conveying mechanism 3 is set as two sets of structures, namely a conveyor line 31 and a lifting bracket 32. The conveyor line 31 is used to convey the duck necks towards the oil pan; while the lifting bracket 32 can freely adjust the position of the conveyor line 31 at the top according to the installation height of the hoisting mechanism 2. Therefore, the influence of different foundation heights can be compensated, and it only needs to meet that the conveyor line 31 is arranged 2-3 cm below the outlet chute 24. The small spacing can also reduce the rebound situation when the duck necks fall onto the step feeding and conveying mechanism 3.

[0037] In the present utility model, the working steps of the device are as follows:

[0038] 1. First, the raw duck necks enter the wire drawing machine 1 for wire drawing treatment and are output from the outlet chute 6 onto the elevator 22 of the hoisting mechanism 2;

[0039] 2. Then, while outputting, the situation of the output wire-drawn duck necks is recorded according to the first photoelectric sensor 4, and then, after being processed by the external PLC system, the elevator 22 is controlled to stably receive the wire-drawn duck necks;

[0040] 3. Next, through the continuous drive of the elevator 22, the duck necks are conveyed to the position of the outlet chute 6 and discharged onto the step feeding and conveying mechanism 3 through the outlet chute 6;

[0041] 4. Finally, during the discharge process through the outlet chute 6, after the data of the second photoelectric sensor 5 is transmitted to the external PLC system for processing, the stepping feeding and conveying mechanism 3 controls the stepping rhythm of the stepping feeding and conveying mechanism 3, prompting the duck necks to fall onto the stepping feeding and conveying mechanism 3 at intervals.

[0042] The above shows and describes the basic principles, main features and advantages of the present invention. Those skilled in the art should understand that the present invention is not limited by the above embodiments, and without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention, the present invention will have various changes and improvements, and these changes and improvements all fall within the scope of protection required by the present invention. The scope of protection required by the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
