Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of freeze dryer feeding and discharging, in particular to a full-automatic freeze dryer feeding and discharging device. Background Art
[0002] Freeze-drying, also known as vacuum freeze-drying, is a method for effectively preserving biological products and foods through low-temperature freezing and vacuum dehydration. This technology can significantly extend the shelf life of products while preserving their original active ingredients and nutrients. Consequently, freeze-drying has gained widespread application in various fields, including medicine, food, and agriculture.
[0003] The traditional freeze dryer loading and unloading methods mainly rely on manual operation, which has the following problems: Low efficiency: Manually arranging the bottles one by one is not only time-consuming and labor-intensive, but also prone to operational errors, resulting in low production efficiency. Risk of bottle tipping: During the manual arrangement process, the bottles are prone to tilting or collapsing, affecting the freeze-drying effect and even causing product loss. High labor intensity: Long-term manual operation increases the labor intensity of workers, which is not conducive to long-term production. Although there are some automatic loading and unloading systems on the market, they still have some shortcomings: Untidy arrangement: Existing automatic loading and unloading systems can often only arrange the bottles row by row, and cannot form a neat rectangular array at one time. If the arrangement speed is increased, it will easily cause the bottles to tilt. Utility Model Content

An elastic piece 205 is connected between two adjacent limiting channels 201. The arrangement unit 200 also includes a drive assembly for driving the limiting channels 201. Multiple limiting channels 201 are provided on the placement plate 101, and the number of limiting channels 201 is determined according to actual needs.
[0030] It should be noted that in the future, in order to make the gaps between the arranged bottles smaller, the side walls of the limiting channel 201 can be set thinner so as to be able to drive the bottles to slide on the display plate 101.
[0031] In another embodiment, one of the rotating shafts 202 is located at the upper side of one end of the limiting channel 201 , and the other rotating shaft 202 is located at the lower side of the other end of the limiting channel 201 .
