Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of food processing, and particularly relates to a sheet food tablet pressing and filling device. Background Art

[0002] Vitamin supplement tablets include vitamin A tablets, vitamin B tablets, vitamin C tablets, etc. Taking vitamin C tablets as an example, their indications are for preventing scurvy and can also be used for the adjuvant treatment of various acute and chronic infectious diseases and purpura, etc. Vitamin C tablets participate in the formation of antibodies and collagen in the body, tissue repair (including certain oxidation-reduction effects), the metabolism of phenylalanine, tyrosine, and folic acid, the utilization of iron and carbohydrates, the synthesis of fats and proteins, as well as maintaining immune function, hydroxylation of 5-hydroxytryptamine, maintaining the integrity of blood vessels, and promoting the absorption of non-heme iron.

[0003] In the related art, after vitamin supplement tablets are pressed from powder into sheets, they are collected manually and then transferred to a dedicated filling device for filling the vitamin supplement tablets. This process still requires manual transportation, which increases the labor intensity and reduces the filling efficiency of vitamin supplement tablets and the production efficiency. Content of the Utility Model

[0051] Referring to Figures 1 to 5 As shown, an embodiment of the present utility model provides a flaky food tabletting and filling device, including: a tabletting mechanism 100, a transportation mechanism 200, a transmission mechanism 300, and a counting mechanism 400. The tabletting mechanism 100 is used to form powdery food into flaky food and convey the flaky food. The transportation mechanism 200 has a filling position and is used to convey a food can with an opening at the top through the filling position. The transmission mechanism 300 is used to convey the flaky food formed by the tabletting mechanism 100 into the food can at the filling position of the transmission mechanism 300. The counting mechanism 400 is arranged at the conveying end of the transmission mechanism 300 to count the flaky food filled into the food can. After filling a preset number of flaky foods, the conveying of the transmission mechanism 300 is stopped, and the transportation mechanism 200 conveys a new empty food can into the filling position. The flaky food tabletting and filling device in this embodiment can improve the filling efficiency of flaky food, thereby improving the production efficiency.

[0052] In this embodiment, the tablet pressing mechanism 100 includes: a base 110, a rotating assembly 120, a carrier plate 130, a lower pressing plate 140, an ejecting plate 150, a guide plate 160, and a feeding ring 170. The base 110 is used to support the overall structure and has an installation cavity. The rotating assembly 120 includes a driving source and a rotating shaft 121 connected in transmission. The driving source of the rotating assembly 120 is installed within the installation cavity. The rotating shaft 121 is located at the center of the base. When the base 110 is placed on the ground, the axial direction of the rotating shaft 121 is substantially perpendicular to the horizontal plane. The driving source can drive the rotating shaft 121 to rotate around its own axis. The driving source is a motor, and the motor drives the rotating shaft 121 to rotate through a transmission structure. The transmission structure can be a gear structure. For example, a coaxial toothed disc is provided on the outer peripheral surface of the rotating shaft 121, and the toothed disc meshes with the driving gear. The output shaft of the motor is rotatably connected to the central hole of the driving gear, so that the driving gear rotates, driving the toothed disc and the rotating shaft 121 to rotate; the centers of the carrier plate 130, the lower pressing plate 140, and the ejecting plate 150 are all sleeved on the rotating shaft 121 and rotate under the drive of the rotating shaft 121. Among them, the carrier plate 130 is located between the lower pressing plate 140 and the ejecting plate 150, the ejecting plate 150 is located below the carrier plate 130, and the lower pressing plate 140 is located above the carrier plate 130; the guide plate 160 and the feeding ring 170 are both fixedly connected to the base 110 and partially located on the top surface of the carrier plate 130. When the carrier plate 130 rotates, the guide plate 160 and the feeding ring 170 both remain stationary. The guide plate 160 is used to guide the ejected sheet-shaped food into the transmission mechanism 300. The inside of the feeding ring 170 is used to accommodate powdered food. The powdered food can be added into the feeding ring 170 manually, or a storage cavity, a storage pipeline, and a storage control valve are provided at the top of the feeding ring 170. The top end of the storage pipeline communicates with the bottom end of the storage cavity, the bottom end of the storage pipeline communicates with the upper part of the feeding ring 170, and the storage control valve controls the connection of the storage pipeline. When the storage control valve is opened, the powdered food in the storage cavity flows into the feeding ring 170 through the storage pipeline under the action of gravity. When the storage control valve is closed, the storage pipeline is closed and no more powdered food is added, realizing the automatic addition of powdered food into the feeding ring 170.

[0053] Wherein, with reference to Figure 1 、 Figure 2 and Figure 5As shown, the carrier plate 130 surrounds and is connected to the rotating shaft 121 to rotate about the axis of the rotating shaft 121. The carrier plate 130 includes a plurality of first molds 131 distributed in a circumferential manner. The first mold 131 includes a first main body 1311 and a sliding member 1312 slidably connected to the first main body 1311. The first main body 1311 is provided with a through hole in the axial direction. The sliding member 1312 is slidably disposed within the through hole to move in the axial direction and has a forming position and an ejection position. When the sliding member 1312 is in the forming position, a forming groove is formed within the first mold 131 to accommodate the powdered food. When in the ejection position, it is flush with or protrudes beyond the top surface of the carrier plate 130, so that the sheet-like food in the forming groove is ejected, realizing the demolding of the sheet-like food. In this embodiment, the sliding member 1312 includes a sliding main body portion 13121 and a first limiting portion 13122 and a second limiting portion 13123 respectively connected to both axial ends of the sliding main body portion 13121. The first limiting portion 13122 is integrally formed with the sliding main body portion 13121, and the second limiting portion 13123 is threadedly connected to the outer peripheral surface of the sliding main body portion 13121. The through hole includes a first limiting section 132, a second limiting section 133, and an abutting portion 134 located between the first limiting section 132 and the second limiting section 133. The first limiting portion 13122 moves axially within the first limiting section 132 of the through hole, and the bottom of the first limiting portion 13122 is abutted and limited by the top surface of the abutting portion 134, realizing the limitation of the first limiting portion 13122 within the through hole. The second limiting portion 13123 moves axially within the second limiting section 133 of the through hole, and the top of the second limiting portion 13123 is abutted and limited by the bottom surface of the abutting portion 134, realizing the limitation of the second limiting portion 13123 within the through hole. By the top surface of the abutting portion 134, the movement of the first limiting portion 13122 in the vertically downward direction is restricted, and by the bottom surface of the abutting portion 134, the movement of the second limiting portion 13123 in the vertically upward direction is restricted, realizing the axial sliding of the sliding member 1312 within the through hole. Among them, the carrier plate 130 includes a cylindrical plate body. The central axis of the plate body coincides with the axis of the rotating shaft 121. The top surface (end face) of the plate body is provided with a plurality of first molds 131 distributed in a circumferential direction around the central axis of the plate body, and the plurality of first molds 131 are evenly spaced. The first mold 131 is detachably connected to the plate body to facilitate the disassembly and replacement of the first mold 131 and facilitate the production of sheet-like foods of different sizes. In this embodiment, the top surface of the plate body is provided with a mold installation stepped hole, and the stepped surface faces the bottom surface of the plate body. The stepped surface is provided with threaded fixing holes. The first mold 131 includes a first main body 1311 and a mold installation portion 135 connected to the outer peripheral surface of the bottom end of the first main body 1311. The mold installation portion 135 is provided with a through hole, and the through hole can be aligned with the threaded fixing hole. A bolt passes through the through hole of the mold installation portion 135 and enters the threaded fixing hole, and is locked and connected with the threaded fixing hole, realizing the detachable connection between the first mold 131 and the plate body.Among them, since the loading ring 170 remains stationary, the carrier tray 130 will rotate past the loading ring 170. When the top surface of the carrier tray 130 passes the loading ring 170, the powdered food in the loading ring 170 falls into the first mold 131 under the action of gravity, realizing the automatic addition of the powdered food into the first mold 131. When the first mold 131 rotates out of the loading ring 170, the excess powdered food on the top of the first mold 131 is intercepted by the ring wall of the loading ring 170, realizing the quantification of the powdered food in the first mold 131.

[0054] Among them, the pressing plate 140 surrounds and is connected to the rotating shaft 121 to rotate around the axis of the rotating shaft 121. The pressing plate 140 is located above the carrier tray 130. The pressing plate 140 includes a plurality of pressing telescopic rods 141 distributed in a circumferential manner. The pressing telescopic rod 141 includes a telescopic end facing the carrier tray 130 and a second mold 1411 connected to the telescopic end. The second mold 1411 corresponds to the first mold 131 one by one. The pressing telescopic rod 141 is used to drive the second mold 1411 to be combined with the corresponding first mold 131. The second mold 1411 is detachably connected to the telescopic end, so as to be replaced with a second mold 1411 matching the first mold 131 to produce sheet foods of different sizes. Specifically, as shown in Figure 5 shown, the end face of the telescopic end is provided with a mounting groove, the outer peripheral surface of the telescopic end is provided with a locking hole communicating with the side wall of the mounting groove, the outer peripheral surface of the second mold 1411 is provided with a mold locking hole. The second mold 1411 is inserted into the mounting groove, and the mold locking hole is aligned with the locking hole for bolt locking connection to realize the detachable connection between the second mold 1411 and the telescopic end, or a pin is inserted for fixation to realize the detachable connection between the second mold 1411 and the telescopic end. The pressing telescopic rod 141 can be a pneumatic telescopic rod. The pneumatic telescopic rod is communicated with the air source through a rotary joint. The air source drives the corresponding pressing telescopic rod 141 to expand and contract, and the rotary joint can maintain the communication of the air passage while rotating.

[0055] Among them, the ejecting plate 150 surrounds and is connected to the rotating shaft 121 to rotate around the axis of the rotating shaft 121. The ejecting plate 150 is located below the carrier tray 130. The ejecting plate 150 includes a plurality of ejecting telescopic rods 151 distributed in a circumferential manner. The ejecting telescopic rods 151 correspond to the through holes one by one and are used to drive the sliding member 1312 to switch between the forming position and the ejecting position. The ejecting telescopic rod 151 can be a pneumatic telescopic rod. The pneumatic telescopic rod is communicated with the air source through a rotary joint. The air source drives the corresponding ejecting telescopic rod 151 to expand and contract, and the rotary joint can maintain the communication of the air passage while rotating.

[0056] Among them, the guide plate 160 is fixed to the base 110 and is disposed above the top surface of the carrier 130 for guiding the ejected sheet food into the transmission mechanism 300; the feeding ring 170 is fixed to the base 110 and is disposed above the top surface of the carrier 130 for accommodating powder food, and the feeding ring 170 and the guide plate 160 are arranged adjacent to each other in the circumferential direction. The feeding ring 170 and the guide plate 160 are spaced from the top surface of the carrier 130, but the gap is very small, and the gap between the feeding ring 170 and the carrier 130 cannot allow a large amount of powdered food to pass through.

[0057] The guide plate 160 extends from outside the carrier 130 to the top surface of the carrier 130. The guide plate 160 and the edge of the carrier 130 form a first intersection point. The connection line between the first intersection point and the center direction of the carrier 130 forms a first radial line. The guide plate 160 is arranged at an angle with the first radial line, and the relative position of the guide plate 160 and the first radial line is related to the rotation direction of the carrier 130. The connection line between the end of the guide plate 160 facing the center and the center direction of the carrier 130 forms a second radial line. When the carrier 130 rotates in the first rotation direction, the carrier 130 first passes through the second radial line and then passes through the first radial line. In other words, the guide plate 160 is disposed between the first radial line and the second radial line and is inclined. The resultant force direction of the rotation force of the carrier 130 and the blocking force of the guide plate 160 points outside the carrier 130. When the sheet food collides with the guide plate 160, the sheet food is blocked and guided by the guide plate 160 and moves from the top surface of the carrier 130 to outside the carrier 130.

[0058] Specifically, the tableting process of the tableting mechanism 100 is as follows: when the carrier plate 130 rotates, the first mold 131 passes through the feeding ring 170, and the powdered food in the feeding ring 170 automatically falls into the first mold 131. When the first mold 131 leaves the feeding ring 170, the powdered food exceeding the top of the first mold 131 is blocked by the feeding ring 170, so that the powdered food in the first mold 131 can maintain a preset amount; after the first mold 131 leaves the feeding ring 170, the downward pressing telescopic rod 141 of the lower pressing plate 140 drives the telescopic end to move toward the first mold 131, so that the second mold 1411 is molded with the first mold 131 to press the powdered food into a sheet of food. After the pressing and forming process, the downward telescopic rod 141 rises, and the ejection telescopic rod 151 lags behind and then pushes upward, driving the slide 1312 to move from the forming position to the ejection position, allowing the sheet food in the forming groove to be demolded onto the top surface of the carrier 130. When the carrier 130 rotates, the sheet food rotates with it and collides with the guide plate 160. The guide plate 160 guides the sheet food from the surface of the carrier 130 to the transmission mechanism 300 outside the carrier 130. The downward telescopic rod 141 descends, and the slide 1312 is in the forming position. Driven by the carrier 130, the first mold 131 passes through the loading ring 170 again, and the above process is repeated to repeatedly produce sheet food. Multiple first molds 131 can operate simultaneously, so that multiple sheet foods can be produced when the carrier 130 rotates one circle, which is more efficient in producing sheet food.

[0059] The transport mechanism 200 includes a conveyor line for transporting food cans and a positioning assembly. The conveyor line is used to transport food cans. The positioning assembly is installed on the conveyor line and is used to position the food cans at the filling position. The positioning assembly positions the conveyor line so that the food cans can stop at the filling position and be filled. The conveyor line is a belt conveyor, and the positioning assembly can be a photoelectric switch.

[0060] The transmission mechanism 300 is arranged obliquely between the tableting mechanism 100 and the transport mechanism 200. The transmission mechanism 300 includes a material receiving end and a material discharge end located below the material receiving end. The material receiving end is used to receive the sheet food formed by the tableting mechanism 100. The material discharge end is arranged above the filling position and above the food can at the filling position to transport the sheet food into the food can.

[0061] The counting mechanism 400 is rotatably disposed at the unloading end and can be struck by the sheet food to rotate so as to allow the sheet food to pass through. The counting mechanism 400 is configured to count the impacted sheet food when being struck by the sheet food.

[0062] It should be understood that the powder food is pressed into sheet food by the tablet pressing mechanism 100. After the sheet food is formed, the inclined conveying mechanism 300 conveys the sheet food into the food can at the filling position of the conveying mechanism 200 by the gravity of the sheet food itself, and enters the food can through the opening at the top of the food can, realizing the automatic forming and filling of the sheet food, and making the production of the sheet food more efficient; when the sheet food is conveyed to the discharging end of the conveying mechanism 300, the sheet food impacts the counting mechanism 400, causing the counting mechanism 400 to rotate relative to the conveying mechanism 300 to open the discharging end, and the sheet food enters the food can through the opened discharging end. The counting mechanism 400 counts the number of wave peaks of the pressure change curve to calculate the number of sheet foods poured into the food can, making the number of sheet foods in each food can more accurate. At the same time, the counting mechanism 400 buffers the sheet food, reducing the speed of the sheet food, making the impact of the sheet food entering the food can smaller, which is beneficial to maintaining the integrity of the sheet food and improving the production quality.

[0063] Referring to Figure 4 As shown, in some specific embodiments of the present invention, the counting mechanism 400 includes a support plate 410, a pressure sensor 420 and a counter. The support plate 410 is rotatably arranged at the discharging end, the pressure sensor 420 is arranged on the side of the support plate 410 facing the material receiving end, and the counter is electrically connected to the pressure sensor 420 to record the number of wave peaks of the pressure change curve of the pressure sensor 420.

[0064] It should be understood that when the sheet food collides with the pressure sensor 420, the pressure value of the pressure sensor 420 changes. The counter judges the number of sheet foods passing by according to the number of changes in the pressure value of the pressure sensor 420 to count the sheet foods. For example, if the pressure value of the pressure sensor 420 is recorded in a plane coordinate, when a sheet food impacts the pressure sensor and then separates from the pressure sensor, the change in the pressure value forms a wave peak. When subsequent sheet foods impact the pressure sensor, each impact of a sheet food forms a wave peak. When multiple sheet foods impact the pressure sensor 420 in sequence, the pressure value curve of the pressure sensor 420 is a wavy line. Each wave peak is the pressure change of the pressure value of the pressure sensor 420 when a sheet food impacts, and the number of wave peaks is the number of sheet foods passing through. The counter can obtain the number of sheet foods passing through by counting the number of wave peaks. In this embodiment, the pressure sensor 420 is a thin film pressure sensor.

[0065] In some specific embodiments of the present invention, a buffer layer is arranged on the side of the pressure sensor 420 away from the support plate 410.

[0066] It should be noted that when the sheet food moves to the discharging end at the end along the inclined conveying mechanism 300, the sheet food itself has a relatively large initial velocity, and the sheet food is likely to be broken due to collision, affecting the appearance. Therefore, a buffer layer is provided on the pressure sensor 420 to reduce the impact force on the sheet food, so that the appearance of the sheet food is not easily damaged and the production quality is improved.

[0067] Refer to Figure 3 And Figure 4 As shown, in some specific embodiments of the present invention, the sheet food tablet filling device further includes: a stop mechanism 500, the stop mechanism 500 is arranged on the side of the support plate 410 away from the material receiving end, the stop mechanism 500 can limit the rotation of the support plate 410, and the stop mechanism 500 has a first state and a second state; wherein, the stop mechanism 500 is configured to: in the first state, the support plate 410 is rotated by the impact of the sheet food and allows the sheet food to pass through; in the second state, limit the rotation of the support plate 410 and prevent the sheet food from passing through.

[0068] It is understandable that when the passing quantity of the sheet food reaches a preset quantity, the state of the stop mechanism 500 is changed, so that the stop mechanism 500 changes from the first state to the second state. In the second state, the stop mechanism 500 stops the support plate 410, so that the sheet food cannot be driven to pass through the support plate 410, and the sheet food will remain in the conveying mechanism 300. When the conveying mechanism 200 conveys a new empty food can to the filling position, the stop mechanism 500 returns from the second state to the first state, the stop mechanism 500 no longer stops the rotation of the sheet food, and the sheet food impacts the support plate 410 again, causing the support plate 410 to rotate, and then passing through the support plate 410 and entering the empty food can, so as to count the sheet food entering the empty food can.

[0069] Refer to Figure 3 And Figure 4 As shown, in some specific embodiments of the present invention, the stop mechanism 500 includes: a stop frame 510 and a telescopic rod 520 arranged on the top of the stop frame 510, the telescopic rod 520 has a first position and a second position; the telescopic rod 520 is configured to: when the stop mechanism 500 is in the first state, the telescopic end is in the first position, the telescopic end is spaced from the support plate 410 and does not limit the rotation of the support plate 410; when the stop mechanism 500 is in the second state, the telescopic end is in the second position, the telescopic end extends out and abuts against the side of the support plate 410 away from the pressure sensor 420, limits the rotation of the support plate 410, and limits the sheet food to be within the conveying mechanism 300.

[0070] It should be understood that by switching the telescopic rod 520 between the first position and the second position, the telescopic rod 520 is moved away from or abutted against the support plate 410, enabling the support plate 410 to rotate freely or restricting its rotation, and restricting the sheet food within the transmission mechanism 300.

[0071] In this embodiment, the telescopic rod 520 is an electric telescopic rod. The counting mechanism 400 further includes a controller, which is electrically connected to the counter and the electric telescopic rod 520. When the quantity counted by the counter reaches a preset quantity, the controller sends a signal to the electric telescopic rod to move it to the second position, and the quantity of the counter can be reset to zero or accumulated again. During the period when the electric telescopic rod is in the second position, the counter does not count.

[0072] Refer to Figure 1 、 Figure 2 、 Figure 3 And Figure 4 As shown in, in some specific embodiments of the present utility model, the transmission mechanism 300 includes a transmission main board 310 and a chute 320 provided on the transmission main board 310. The transmission main board 310 is inclined along a first direction. One end of the transmission main board 310 is a feeding end, and the other end is a discharging end. The chute 320 communicates the feeding end and the discharging end along the first direction. A cross-section perpendicular to the first direction of the chute 320 is defined as a cross-section. Along the direction from the feeding end to the discharging end, the cross-section of the chute 320 narrows.

[0073] It should be understood that the chute 320 guides the sheet food, enabling the sheet food to slide along the chute 320 into the food can. Moreover, the chute 320 narrows along the direction from the feeding end to the discharging end, making the discharging end of the chute 320 narrower, which can extend into the opening at the top of the food can, facilitating the alignment of the discharging end with the opening of the food can and improving the accuracy of feeding. At the same time, the feeding end is wider, and the range for the feeding end to receive the sheet food is wider, enabling better reception of the sheet food.

[0074] In this embodiment, a rotating shaft 121 is provided on the side wall of the chute 320 at the discharging end of the transmission main board 310, and the support plate 410 is rotatably connected to the rotating shaft 121. The narrowing of the cross-section means that the width of the bottom of the chute 320 gradually decreases.

[0075] Refer to Figure 1 、 Figure 2 、 Figure 3 And Figure 4 As shown in, in some specific embodiments of the present utility model, the chute 320 includes a material-gathering section 321 and a material-distributing section 322 that are sequentially connected along the direction from the feeding end to the discharging end. The cross-section of the material-gathering section 321 is for multiple sheet foods to pass through simultaneously, and the cross-section of the material-distributing section 322 is for a single sheet food to pass through.

[0076] It should be understood that through the aggregating section 321, the sheet-shaped food on the surface of the carrier tray 130 can enter the aggregating section 321 from different positions, and under the guidance of the aggregating section 321, enter the distributing section 322. Then, the sheet-shaped food passes through the counting mechanism 400 in sequence, and the number of passes is recorded. When the stop mechanism 500 stops the sheet-shaped food from entering, the sheet-shaped food will be neatly arranged in sequence in the distributing section 322. Moreover, when the next empty food can enters the filling position, the sheet-shaped food will not exceed the length of the distributing section 322. When the empty food can is in the filling position, multiple sheet-shaped foods accumulated in the distributing section 322 pass through the counting mechanism 400 at a relatively fast speed and enter the empty food can, realizing the filling of the sheet-shaped food.

[0077] The embodiments of the present invention have been described in detail above in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. However, the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments. Within the scope of knowledge possessed by those of ordinary skill in the art to which it pertains, various changes can be made without departing from the gist of the present invention.
