Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of packaging machinery, and in particular to an EPE mesh packaging machine for apricots and plums. Background Technique

[0002] Due to unique climatic conditions and soil environment, the fruits produced in Xinjiang are sweet and delicious, including various apricots and plums. The sales of apricots and plums are inseparable from transportation. After they mature, they are extremely vulnerable to mechanical damages such as squeezing, bruising, and knocking. Due to the perishable storage characteristics of apricots and plums, and the development of the direct sales model from the place of origin, most of the apricots and plums in Xinjiang are transported by air-cold chain through express delivery. In order to reduce the possibility of mechanical damage to apricots and plums during transportation, merchants will pack and protect apricots and plums with independent EPE mesh sleeves before shipping. However, the current bagging process heavily relies on manual operation, resulting in low efficiency and high cost, which has become a bottleneck restricting the large-scale shipping of apricots and plums. In view of this, it has become particularly urgent to develop automated or semi-automated packaging equipment, aiming to improve packaging efficiency and reduce costs through technological innovation, thereby promoting the more vigorous development of the fruit industry in Xinjiang. Content of the Utility Model

[0003] The utility model aims at the problems of low efficiency, high cost, and poor universality of existing EPE mesh packaging machines that can only package spherical fruits when packaging EPE mesh sleeves for ellipsoidal fruits such as apricots and plums, especially during the express delivery process in the current technical field, and proposes an innovative EPE mesh packaging machine for apricots and plums. This machine can solve the limitations of existing EPE mesh packaging machines in terms of requirements for the shape and placement posture of the packaged fruits, and realize the batch packaging of ellipsoidal fruits. The design aims to effectively replace the traditional manual mesh sleeve covering method, and through a semi-automated operation mode, significantly improve packaging efficiency and reduce labor costs, so as to solve the problems and deficiencies of manual mesh sleeve covering during the express delivery process.

[0025] Refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown in the figure, as a specific embodiment of the present utility model, an EPE net packaging machine for apricots and plums is disclosed, which can be used for the EPE net packaging of small granular ellipsoidal fruits such as apricots and plums. The packaging machine includes a base 1, a coil support device 2, an upper cover plate 3, a hot melting device 4 and an electric heating cutting device 5. The coil support device 2 is symmetrically installed on the front side of the base 1 through two support connecting rods 23. The EPE net coil 21 is installed on the rotating shaft 26 above the support connecting rod 23, and the left and right movement of the coil is restricted by a limit bushing 22. The upper cover plate 3 is connected to the bearing seat 33 through bolts 34. The bearing seat 33 is fixed on the upper surface of the base 1. The bearing seats 33 are symmetrically installed on the left and right. The armrest 32 is fixed on the right side of the upper cover plate 3 through bolts. The upper hot melting plate 41 is installed on the upper cover plate 3 through bolts. The lower hot melting plate 42 and the fruit fixing tray 43 are placed in the fruit tray fixing groove 11 of the base 1. The electric heating cutting device 5 is installed on the electric heating cutting device sliding groove 12 on the base 1.

[0026] As Figure 3 and Figure 4 shown, the electric heating cutting device sliding groove 12 of the base 1 is rectangular. The lower hot melting plate 42 and the fruit fixing tray 43 are installed on the base 1. Here, the lower hot melting plate 42 is first placed in the fruit tray fixing groove 11, and the fruit fixing tray 43 is placed on the lower hot melting plate 42. After installation, a part of the top of the partition of the lower hot melting plate 42 will be exposed on the rectangular through hole of the fruit fixing tray 43, and the exposed part of the partition corresponds to the partition of the upper hot melting plate 41 one by one.

[0027] As Figure 5 shown, Figure 5 is a detailed view of the fruit fixing tray 43. The surface of the tray has ellipsoidal grooves 431 arranged in a 5*6 (which can be changed according to different box packaging specifications). Fruits such as apricots and plums are placed on the grooves to achieve a fixing effect. There are slender rectangular through holes 432 around the grooves 431, and these through holes correspond and cooperate with the partitions of the hot melting plate.

[0028] As Figure 6 shown, Figure 6 is an enlarged view of an independent grid of the upper hot melting plate 41. A circular hot melting electric heating wire 411 is installed at the top of the partition 413. The length of the wire is the same as that of the partition. The flat strip-shaped wire 412 is installed on both sides of the partition 413. When the hot melting electric heating wire 411 reaches the working temperature of about 115°C, the two layers of EPE net will be welded together. There are four welding seams around each fruit, and the fruit is fixed in the grid to achieve the EPE net packaging.

[0029] As Figure 7As shown in the figure, it is a detailed view of the electric heating cutting device 5. The electric heating cutting device 5 is composed of a grip 51, an upper electric heating wire support rod 52 and a lower electric heating wire support rod 54, a cutting electric heating wire 53 and a sliding rod 55. The extending directions of the electric heating wire support rods 52 and 54 form a 45° acute angle with the sliding groove 12 of the electric heating cutting device. The cross-section of the lower electric heating wire support rod 54 is triangular. In this way, when the electric heating cutting device 5 slides, the lower electric heating wire support rod 54 first shovels up the pearl cotton net, and when sliding, the electric heating wire cuts the pearl cotton net to separate the coil from the packaged part.
