[0067] As Figures 1 to 15 shown, this application provides a beverage filling machine 100, which includes a frame 10, a rotating disk 20, a cup dropping device 30, a filling device 40, a sealing device 50, and a cup discharging device 60. The rotating disk 20 is rotatably disposed on the frame 10, and the rotating disk 20 has a support seat 21 for supporting the beverage cup 101; the cup dropping device 30 outputs the beverage cup 101 to the support seat 21; the filling device 40 fills the beverage cup 101 with a beverage; the sealing device 50 performs hot pressing sealing on the beverage cup 101; the cup discharging device 60 pushes the beverage cup 101 out of the support seat 21.
[0068] When filling and encapsulating the beverage cup 101, first place the beverage cup 101 at the cup dropping device 30. The cup dropping device 30 sends the beverage cup 101 to the support seat 21. The rotating disk 20 drives the beverage cup 101 to rotate to the filling device 40. The filling device 40 fills the beverage cup 101 with a beverage. Then the rotating disk 20 drives the beverage cup 101 to rotate to the sealing device 50. The sealing device 50 performs hot pressing sealing on the beverage cup 101. Finally, the rotating disk 20 drives the beverage cup 101 to rotate to the cup discharging device 60. The cup discharging device 60 pushes the beverage cup 101 out of the support seat 21, completing the full-automatic filling and encapsulation of the beverage cup 101, improving efficiency and saving labor costs.
[0069] Only one staff member is required to operate the control center to control the beverage filling machine 100. The entire filling process of the beverage filling machine 100 is automatically completed, with a relatively high degree of automation, reducing labor costs. And there is no need for manual operation by the staff, avoiding uncertain factors during the filling process due to human reasons, ensuring the filling quality. Moreover, cup dropping, cup filling, and cup sealing can be carried out synchronously, effectively improving the filling efficiency, and it is very suitable for use in catering places with a large demand for beverages such as school canteens and breakfast shops.
[0070] In this embodiment, as Figures 1 to 12As shown, the beverage filling machine 100 is configured to fill and output m beverage cups 101 at a time, where m ≥ 2, so as to improve the filling efficiency of the beverage cups 101. Within a unit time of 1 minute, the number of cups output by the cup discharging device 60 is greater than 15 cups, so that the beverage filling machine 100 can produce more than 900 cups per hour, and the production time for each beverage cup 101 on average is less than 4 seconds. Preferably, within a unit time of 1 minute, the number of cups output by the cup discharging device 60 is greater than 16 cups; the beverage filling machine 100 can produce more than 1000 cups per hour, and the production time for each beverage cup 101 on average is less than 3.6 seconds.
[0071] In this embodiment, as Figures 1 to 12 shown, the cup dropping device 30 outputs m beverage cups 101 to the support seat 21 at a time; the filling device 40 fills the m beverage cups 101 with beverage simultaneously; the sealing device 50 performs hot pressing and sealing on the m beverage cups 101 simultaneously; the cup discharging device 60 pushes out the m beverage cups 101 from the support seat 21 at a time. Among them, the support seat 21 is provided with m supporting parts 211 adapted to the beverage cups 101; the supporting parts 211 are used to support the beverage cups 101 so that the beverage cups 101 are placed on the support seat 21.
[0072] In this embodiment, as Figures 1 to 2 shown, the structure of the frame 10 is not strictly limited as long as the frame 10 can support structures such as the cup dropping device 30, the filling device 40, the sealing device 50, and the cup discharging device 60; for example, the structure of the frame 10 is a frame structure. Four casters are installed at the bottom of the frame 10, enabling the beverage filling machine 100 to be moved flexibly.
[0073] In this embodiment, as Figures 1 to 12 shown, the cup dropping device 30, the filling device 40, the sealing device 50, and the cup discharging device 60 are respectively arranged at intervals along the circumferential direction of the rotating disk 20; when the rotating disk 20 drives the beverage cups 101 to rotate to the cup dropping device 30, the filling device 40, the sealing device 50, and the cup discharging device 60, it needs to stop intermittently to complete the discharging, filling, sealing, and discharging of the beverage cups 101. The intermittent time of the rotating disk 20 is greater than 5 seconds; within this time, it can ensure that the beverage cups 101 are output to the support seat 21, the filling device 40 fills the beverage into the beverage cups 101, the sealing device 50 can perform hot pressing and sealing on the beverage cups 101, and the cup discharging device 60 pushes the beverage cups 101 out of the support seat 21. Preferably, the intermittent time of the rotating disk 20 is greater than 6 seconds.
[0074] In this embodiment, as Figures 1 to 12As shown, the rotating disk 20 is driven by a motor to rotate around a fixed axis. The rotating disk 20 is provided with a plurality of supporting seats 21, and the plurality of supporting seats 21 are arranged at intervals along the circumferential direction of the rotating disk 20. The arrangement of the plurality of supporting seats 21 enables the cup dropping device 30, the filling device 40, the sealing device 50 and the cup discharging device 60 to operate on the beverage cup 101 synchronously, so as to improve the working efficiency of the beverage cup 101. For example, the number of the supporting seats 21 is four. When the turntable is intermittent, the four supporting seats 21 respectively correspond to the cup dropping device 30, the filling device 40, the sealing device 50 and the cup discharging device 60.
[0075] In this embodiment, as Figures 1 to 12 shown, when the beverage cup 101 is placed on the supporting seat 21, the supporting portion supports the outer edge of the opening of the beverage cup 101. The supporting portion is generally in a ring structure. When the beverage cup 101 is placed on the supporting seat 21, the supporting portion is sleeved on the outside of the beverage cup 101. Among them, the supporting portion has a placing hole, and the beverage cup 101 can be placed in the placing hole. The supporting portions 211 in each supporting seat 21 are arranged at intervals along the circumferential direction of the rotating disk 20, so that when the cup discharging device 60 pushes the beverage cup 101 out of the supporting seat 21, the beverage cup 101 can fall from the rotating disk 20.
[0076] In this embodiment, as Figures 4 to 5 shown, the cup dropping device 30 includes m cup dropping brackets 31 and a separator 32. Each cup dropping bracket 31 is used for placing the beverage cup 101, and the separator 32 is used for separating the beverage cups 101 on the cup dropping brackets 31 and dropping them into the supporting seats 21. The cup dropping device 30 is located above the rotating disk 20, so that after the separator 32 separates the beverage cups 101 on the cup dropping brackets 31, the beverage cups 101 can automatically fall into the supporting seats 21.
[0077] In this embodiment, as Figures 4 to 5 shown, the cup dropping bracket 31 includes four support columns 311. The space enclosed by the four support columns 311 is a cup dropping channel for placing the beverage cup 101. The empty beverage cups 101 are stacked mouth-up in the cup dropping channel. Along the circumferential direction of the beverage cups 101 located in the cup dropping bracket 31, the lengths of two adjacent support columns 311 are longer than those of the other two adjacent support columns 311. The two longer support columns 311 can support the successively stacked beverage cups 101 without left-right deviation and have high stability. The two shorter support columns 311 can facilitate the placement of the beverage cups 101 in the cup dropping bracket 31. The cup dropping bracket 31 can accommodate about 80 - 120 beverage cups 101, preventing frequent feeding and adding cups during the working process and improving the working efficiency.
[0078] In this embodiment, as Figures 4 to 5As shown, the bottom end of the cup dropping channel is located above the rotating disk 20, and the separator 32 is located at the bottom of the cup dropping channel. The separator 32 reciprocates relative to the cup dropping support 31 to separate a beverage cup located at the bottom end of the cup dropping channel and make it fall into the support seat 21. The separator 32 includes a separation driving member 321 and m cup forks 322; the separation driving member 321 synchronously drives the m cup forks 322 so that the m cup forks 322 respectively separate the beverage cups 101 in the corresponding cup dropping supports 31. The separation driving member 321 can be a driving cylinder. The specific structure of the cup fork 322 can refer to the prior art and will not be further elaborated here.
[0079] In this embodiment, as Figures 7 to 8 shown, the perfusion device 40 includes m grouting heads 41 and a filling driving assembly 42. Each grouting head 41 is used to perfuse the slurry into the corresponding beverage cup 101; the filling driving assembly 42 is used to drive each grouting head 41 to reciprocate in the first direction so that the grouting head 41 can move towards or away from the beverage cup 101. When the beverage cup 101 moves to the perfusion device 40, the filling driving assembly 42 synchronously drives the m grouting heads 41 to move towards the beverage cup 101, and then the m grouting heads 41 simultaneously perfuse into the beverage cup 101 to improve the perfusion efficiency of the beverage cup 101. The flow rate of the grouting head 41 is independently controlled and controllable; the m grouting heads 41 are arranged at intervals along the circumference of the rotating disk 20; the first direction is parallel to the rotation axis of the rotating disk 20.
[0080] In this embodiment, as Figures 7 to 8 shown, the grouting head 41 is provided with a splash-proof cover 43; the splash-proof cover 43 effectively prevents splashing when the beverage is discharged. The grouting head 41 is connected to the beverage source through a slurry inlet pipe so that the beverage is transported to the grouting head 41 through the slurry inlet pipe. The slurry inlet pipe is provided with a control valve 73, and the control valve 73 is electrically connected to the control center. The control center controls the operation of the control valve 73 to make the slurry inlet valve conduct or cut off the slurry inlet pipe.
[0081] In this embodiment, as Figures 7 to 8 shown, the filling driving assembly 42 includes m filling driving members 422; the m filling driving members 422 respectively drive the corresponding grouting heads 41 to reciprocate in the first direction. The filling driving member 422 is a reciprocating motor, and the reciprocating motor is electrically connected to the control center.
[0082] In this embodiment, as Figures 9 to 10As shown, the sealing device 50 includes m sealing members 51 and a sealing driving assembly 52; each sealing member 51 is used to perform hot pressing and sealing on the corresponding beverage cup 101; the sealing driving assembly 52 is used to drive each sealing member 51 to reciprocate in the second direction, so that the sealing member 51 can move towards or away from the beverage cup 101. When the beverage cup 101 moves to the sealing device 50, the sealing driving assembly 52 drives the sealing member 51 to move towards the beverage cup 101 until the sealing member 51 performs hot pressing and sealing on the beverage cup 101. The m sealing members 51 perform hot pressing and sealing on the beverage cup 101 simultaneously, with higher efficiency and stable temperature control. Among them, the m sealing members 51 are arranged at intervals along the circumferential direction of the rotating disk 20; the second direction is parallel to the rotation axis of the rotating disk 20.
[0083] In this embodiment, as Figures 9 to 10 shown, the sealing device 50 is located above the beverage cup 101; when the beverage cup 101 moves to the sealing device 50, the sealing member 51 moves downward and gradually approaches the cup mouth of the beverage cup 101 until the sealing member 51 can seal the beverage cup 101. The sealing member 51 is a heating plate, and the heating plate hot presses and seals the diaphragm on the opening of the beverage cup 101.
[0084] In this embodiment, as Figures 9 to 10 shown, the sealing driving assembly 52 includes a sealing movable base 521 and a sealing driving member 522. The sealing movable base 521 is movably installed on the frame 10, and each sealing member 51 is fixedly connected to the sealing movable base 521; the sealing driving member 522 drives the sealing movable base 521 to move through a motion conversion structure 523, so as to drive each sealing member 51 to reciprocate in the second direction; among them, the motion conversion structure 523 includes an eccentric member 5231. One end of the eccentric member 5231 is rotatably connected to the sealing movable base 521, and the other end is eccentrically arranged with the sealing driving member 522. The eccentric member 5231 can convert the rotational force output by the sealing driving member 522 into the reciprocating movement of the sealing member 51 in the second direction. The sealing driving member 522 outputs a rotational force and converts it into the reciprocating movement of the sealing member 51 in the second direction through the eccentric member 5231, so as to be able to drive the sealing member 51.
[0085] In this embodiment, as Figures 9 to 10As shown in the figure, the sealing driving member 522 can be a motor; the motor is provided with an output shaft. The eccentric member 5231 has a rod-shaped structure. One end of the eccentric member 5231 is eccentrically arranged with the output shaft, and the other end is rotatably connected through a pivot. The eccentric member 5231 is connected through a swing rod 5232. One end of the swing rod 5232 is rotatably connected with the eccentric member 5231 through a pivot, and the other end is rotatably connected with the output shaft; when the output shaft rotates, it can drive the swing rod 5232 to rotate, so as to change the position of the pivot connection between the eccentric member 5231 and the swing rod 5232, thereby enabling the eccentric member 5231 to drive the sealing movable base 521 to move along the second direction. The structure of the sealing movable base 521 is not strictly limited as long as the sealing movable base 521 can carry the sealing member 51. The sealing movable base 521 is provided with two guide rods 524, and the frame 10 is provided with two guide holes that cooperate with the guide rods 524. The cooperation between the guide holes and the guide rods 524 can limit the movement path of the sealing movable base 521.
[0086] In this embodiment, as Figures 11 to 12 shown, the cup discharging device 60 includes m cup ejecting members 61 and a cup discharging driving member 62; each cup ejecting member 61 can respectively push the corresponding beverage cup 101 out of the support seat 21; the cup discharging driving member 62 is used to drive each cup ejecting member 61 so that the cup ejecting member 61 can push the beverage cup 101; when the beverage cup 101 moves to the position of the cup discharging device 60, the cup discharging driving member 62 can drive the cup ejecting member 61 to move towards the beverage cup 101 until the beverage cup 101 is separated from the support seat 21. Among them, the m cup ejecting members 61 are arranged at intervals along the circumferential direction of the rotating disc 20.
[0087] In this embodiment, as Figures 11 to 12 shown, the cup discharging device 60 is located below the rotating disc 20; when the beverage cup 101 is driven by the rotating disc 20 to move to the position of the cup discharging device 60, the cup discharging device 60 is located below the beverage cup 101. When the cup ejecting member 61 pushes the beverage cup 101, the cup ejecting member 61 moves towards the beverage cup 101 and contacts the bottom of the beverage cup 101. The cup ejecting member 61 continues to move until the beverage cup 101 is separated from the support seat 21. Among them, the cup ejecting member 61 moves along the rotation axis of the rotating disc 20.
[0088] In this embodiment, as Figures 11 to 12 shown, the cup discharging driving member 62 can adopt a structure such as a cylinder; the cylinder body of the cup discharging driving member 62 is fixed to the frame 10 through structures such as welding or screws, and the piston is fixedly connected to each cup ejecting member 61 through structures such as welding or screws. The bottoms of the cup ejecting members 61 are integrally arranged to facilitate the connection between each cup ejecting member 61 and the cup discharging driving member 62. Among them, the top of the cup ejecting member 61 is inclined so that when the cup ejecting member 61 pushes the beverage cup 101 out of the support seat 21, the beverage cup 101 can be tilted towards the outside of the rotating disc 20.
[0089] In this embodiment, as Figures 1 to 2 shown, the rack 10 has a cup outlet groove 11, and the container leaves the beverage filling machine 100 through the cup outlet groove 11.
