Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of food production equipment, and particularly relates to a multi-station food packaging table. Background Art

[0002] Food packaging is an integral part of food products and one of the main processes in the food industry. It protects food from damage by biological, chemical, and physical external factors during the circulation process from the factory to the hands of consumers. It can also maintain the stable quality of the food itself, facilitate the consumption of food, and is the first to show the appearance of the food, attracting consumers. It has value beyond the material cost. Therefore, the food packaging process is also an inseparable part of the food manufacturing system engineering, but the generality of the food packaging process makes it have a relatively independent self-system.

[0003] With the development of society and the continuous improvement of people's living standards, people pay more and more attention to food safety, and the hygienic requirements for food packaging are getting higher and higher. When carrying out food packaging work, it is often necessary to use an operating platform for food packaging. However, in the existing technology of food packaging operating tables, food and packaging are mixed together, and it is very convenient for the operator to load food into the packaging box. Content of the Utility Model

[0004] The utility model provides a multi-station food packaging table, aiming to solve the problems of inconvenient food packaging operation and low packaging efficiency caused by the mixing of food and packaging boxes in the existing technology.

[0005] In order to solve the above technical problems, the technical solutions adopted by the utility model are as follows:

[0006] A multi-station food packaging table includes a frame;

[0007] A lower rotary conveyor for conveying food is arranged on the frame, and an upper rotary conveyor for conveying packaging boxes is also arranged on the frame. The upper rotary conveyor is located directly above the lower rotary conveyor;

[0008] The rotary multi-station food packaging table further includes an upper conveyor for inputting packaging boxes onto the upper rotary conveyor and a lower conveyor for conveying food onto the lower rotary conveyor;

[0009] The packaging boxes conveyed by the upper conveyor fall onto the upper rotary conveyor under the action of gravity, and the food conveyed by the lower conveyor falls onto the lower rotary conveyor under the action of gravity.

[0010] A further improved scheme: A placement table for placing the packaged food is also arranged on the frame.

[0011] Based on the above technical solution: The placement table provides a temporary storage space for the packaged food, enabling the workers or machines on the production line to complete the packaging process more efficiently without the need to immediately transport it to other places after packaging. It reduces the inefficiency caused by frequent handling during the packaging process and improves the overall smoothness and efficiency of the production line. The design of the placement table usually takes into account the safety and hygiene of the food, is made of materials that are easy to clean, and avoids contact between the food and unclean surfaces. It can also provide certain protection for the packaged food to prevent physical damage during handling or storage. The setting of the placement table can be adjusted according to the actual layout of the production line to maximize the use of space.

[0012] Further improved solution: The upper surface of the placement table is flush with the upper surface of the lower rotary conveyor, and the placement table is arranged around the lower rotary conveyor.

[0013] Based on the above technical solution: The flush design of the placement table and the upper surface of the lower rotary conveyor ensures that the packaged food can be smoothly transferred from the conveyor to the placement table without having to cross a height difference, reducing the risk of food dropping or being damaged due to improper operation. This seamless docking also improves the automation level of the production line, making the packaging and subsequent processing processes more smooth. The placement table is arranged around the lower rotary conveyor, making full use of the space and making the production line more compact. This layout helps to reduce the floor area and improve the space utilization rate. At the same time, the surrounding design also makes it more convenient for workers or machines to access the food on the placement table, improving work efficiency.

[0014] Further improved solution: The placement table is also provided with workstations for the operator to approach the lower rotary conveyor, and the workstations are evenly distributed on the placement table.

[0015] Based on the above technical solution: The design of the workstations provides a fixed and easily accessible working area for the operator, enabling them to complete the packaging operation more efficiently. The even distribution of the workstations ensures that the operator can maintain a similar operating distance and comfort level regardless of the position, thus improving the overall work efficiency. The setting of the workstations makes the production process more orderly and efficient. The operator can complete a series of operations within the fixed workstations, reducing the time waste and efficiency decline caused by frequent movement.

[0016] Further improved solution: The lower rotary conveyor is provided with a lower guide for guiding the food on the lower rotary conveyor to the outer edge of the lower rotary conveyor for easy operation by the operator.

[0017] Based on the above technical solution: The design of the lower guide makes it possible for the food to automatically adjust its position during transportation and finally stop near the outer edge of the conveyor. This design reduces the moving distance and angle adjustment required by the operator when handling the food, making the operation more simple and fast. By guiding the food to the outer edge, the operator can more easily grasp, inspect or further process the food without having to search around on the conveyor or wait for the food to reach the appropriate position. This efficient operation method helps to improve the overall production line efficiency.

[0018] Further improved solution: The cross-section of the lower guide is arc-shaped. One end of the lower guide is fixed to the frame, and the other end of the lower guide is suspended above the lower rotary conveyor. Moreover, the lower guide is located below the upper rotary conveyor.

[0019] Based on the above technical solution: The cross-section of the lower guide is designed to be arc-shaped. This shape helps to smoothly guide the items or food to slide or roll along its surface. The arc-shaped design reduces the friction and resistance between the items and the guide during movement, thereby improving the transmission efficiency. The arc also has a certain guiding effect, which can ensure that the items move along the predetermined path and reduce the risk of deviating from the track.

[0020] Further improved solution: An upper guide is provided on the upper rotary conveyor to guide the packaging boxes on the upper rotary conveyor to be close to the outer edge of the upper rotary conveyor for easy operation by the operator.

[0021] Based on the above technical solution: The presence of the upper guide makes it possible for the packaging boxes to automatically adjust their positions during transportation and finally stop near the outer edge of the conveyor. This design optimizes the packaging process, enabling the operator to more easily place the food into the packaging boxes. By guiding the packaging boxes to the outer edge, the operator can complete the packaging operation more quickly and accurately. They do not need to search around on the conveyor for the packaging boxes, nor do they need to frequently move their positions during the packaging process, thereby improving the overall operation efficiency.

[0022] Further improved solution: The cross-section of the upper guide is arc-shaped. One end of the upper guide is fixed to the frame, and the other end of the upper guide is suspended above the upper rotary conveyor.

[0023] Based on the above technical solution: The arc-shaped cross-section design enables the upper guide to better fit the movement track of the packaging boxes. When the packaging boxes move on the conveyor, the arc-shaped guiding surface can gradually guide the packaging boxes to the outer edge of the conveyor, reducing the impact force caused by sudden direction changes. This design also helps to maintain the stability of the packaging boxes during transportation, preventing them from falling or shifting due to jolts or collisions.

[0024] Further improved solution: Both the upper rotary conveyor and the lower rotary conveyor are drum conveyors.

[0025] Based on the above technical solution: The drum conveyor transports items through continuously rotating drums. This design enables the items to move smoothly and quickly, and is suitable for production lines that require efficient transportation. The drum conveyor can accommodate items of different shapes, sizes, and weights. By adjusting parameters such as the spacing, diameter, and material of the drums, different transportation requirements can be flexibly met.

[0026] Further improved solution: Both the upper conveyor and the lower conveyor are belt conveyors.

[0027] Based on the above technical solution: The conveyor belt of the belt conveyor is made of a soft and wear-resistant material, which can smoothly transport various shapes and sizes of items, reducing the bumps and damages of the items during transportation.

[0028] The beneficial effects of the present utility model are as follows:

[0029] By transporting food and packaging boxes through different conveyors respectively, the present utility model avoids the confusion and interference between the two during transportation, making the packaging operation smoother and more efficient. The operator can focus on the operations at their respective workstations without wasting time and energy searching for food or packaging boxes, thereby improving the overall packaging efficiency. The design of the upper rotary conveyor and the lower rotary conveyor enables the food and packaging boxes to be automatically adjusted to positions convenient for the operator to operate, reducing the movement and searching time of the operator. The workstation layout is reasonable, and the operator can clearly see the food and packaging boxes at their respective workstations, improving the accuracy and convenience of the operation. The efficient and convenient packaging operation reduces the waste of manpower and time, and lowers the production cost. At the same time, since the possibility of packaging errors and food waste is reduced, the losses during the production process are further reduced. Brief Description of the Drawings
