Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the field of food processing equipment, in particular to a conveyor for producing bagged lactic acid bacteria. Background Art
[0002] Lactic acid bacteria, a type of microorganism that is extremely beneficial to human health, are widely used in the food industry, particularly in dairy products, beverages, and health supplements. They not only promote intestinal health and enhance immunity, but also improve the taste and flavor of food. With rising health awareness, market demand for lactic acid bacteria products is growing. The production of lactic acid bacteria powder in bags, which is convenient for storage and portability, has become a key step. After undergoing a series of processes on the production line, including metering, filling, and sealing, bagged lactic acid bacteria powder must be efficiently and safely transported to the packaging and logistics stages to ensure product quality and consumer safety.
[0003] A key challenge in the current packaging and transportation of bagged lactic acid bacteria is ensuring that the bags remain neatly aligned on the conveyor belt for subsequent packaging and transportation. A common approach currently employed is to install two opposing inclined stop plates along the conveyor path. These plates physically squeeze the bags, forcing them to adhere to the conveyor belt and align vertically. This design aims to utilize mechanical force to automatically adjust the position of the bags, reducing manual intervention and improving efficiency.
[0004] Existing conveyors that use two inclined plates to align bags of lactic acid bacteria have a significant drawback: because the retaining plates are fixed in position, they cannot adapt to bags of varying product sizes. Smaller bags of lactic acid bacteria may not effectively contact the retaining plates, preventing them from achieving the desired alignment. Conversely, larger bags can become stuck between the retaining plates due to excessive compression, leading to conveyor interruptions and even damage to the packaging, increasing production line downtime and product loss. Utility Model Content
[0005] In order to overcome the disadvantage of poor adaptability, the utility model provides a straightening conveyor with good adaptability for the production of bagged lactic acid bacteria.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0019] The present invention will now be described more fully hereinafter with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which presently preferred embodiments of the present invention are shown. However, the present invention can be implemented in many different forms and should not be construed as limited to the embodiments set forth herein; rather, these embodiments are provided for thoroughness and completeness, and will fully convey the scope of the invention to those skilled in the art.
[0020] Embodiment: A conveyor for producing bagged lactic acid bacteria, such as Figure 1-Figure 3 As shown, it includes a conveyor 1, a support frame 2, a fixed block 3, a two-way adjustment screw 4, an operating disc 5, a movable plate 6, a correction plate 7 and an adjustment component. The conveyor 1 is used to convey bagged lactic acid bacteria. A support frame 2 is installed on the top of the conveyor 1. Fixed blocks 3 are connected to the left and right sides of the top of the support frame 2. The two fixed blocks 3 are rotatably connected with the two-way adjustment screw 4. The right end of the two-way adjustment screw 4 passes through the fixed block 3 and is fixedly connected with the operating disc 5. The thread directions on both sides of the two-way adjustment screw 4 are opposite. Two parallel movable plates 6 are slidably connected in the support frame 2. The direction of the movable plate 6 is perpendicular to the direction of movement of the conveyor belt. The top of the movable plate 6 is threadedly connected to the two-way adjustment screw 4. The front side of the movable plate 6 is rotatably connected with a correction plate 7 for guiding the bagged lactic acid bacteria. An adjustment component for adjusting the angle of the correction plate 7 is provided on the front side of the support frame 2.
[0021] like Figure 1-Figure 3 As shown, the adjustment assembly includes a rotating shaft 8, an adjustment plate 9 and a limit block 11. The left and right ends of the front side of the support frame 2 are connected with the adjustment plate 9, the front end of the movable plate 6 is connected with the rotating shaft 8, the correction plate 7 is rotatably connected to the rotating shaft 8, a plurality of limit holes 10 are opened on the front side of the adjustment plate 9, and a groove is opened on the front side of the correction plate 7. One end of the limit block 11 is slidably connected to the limit hole 10, and the other end is slidably connected to the groove of the correction plate 7.
[0022] After the lactic acid bacteria are bagged, they are conveyed to a designated location via a conveyor 1 for subsequent processing. Before the inclined lactic acid bacteria are processed, they need to be parallel to the conveyor belt so that they can be straightened when passing through the correction plate 7 and the movable plate 6. According to the size of the lactic acid bacteria in the bag, the staff rotates the operating disc 5, which drives the bidirectional adjustment screw 4 to rotate in the fixed block 3. The bidirectional adjustment screw 4 is threadedly connected to the movable plate 6, pushing the movable plate 6 to slide in the support frame 2, thereby changing the distance between the two movable plates 6 to adapt to the size of the lactic acid bacteria in the bag, without affecting their passage, and also being able to straighten them.
[0023] For smaller bagged lactic acid bacteria, the movable plate 6 is close to the middle position. At this time, the correction plates 7 on both sides also move toward the middle, so that the outer ends of the correction plates 7 cannot cover the edge of the conveyor belt, and it is difficult to ensure that all bagged lactic acid bacteria are collected by the correction plates 7. At this time, the limit block 11 is taken out and the correction plate 7 is rotated so that the correction plates 7 on both sides are rotated toward the outer ends respectively, so that the two ends of the correction plates 7 are rotated outward, and the distance between the outer ends of the two correction plates 7 is greater than the width of the conveyor belt. Then the limit block 11 is aligned with the limit hole 10 and the groove of the correction plate 7, and is inserted into the adjustment plate 9 and the correction plate 7 to complete the fixation of the correction plate 7, thereby ensuring that all bagged lactic acid bacteria can be collected by the two correction plates 7, and the movable plate 6 is straightened, which facilitates the smooth progress of subsequent work.
[0024] like Figure 3 As shown, a magnet 12 is also included. A magnet 12 is placed inside each limiting hole 10, and the limiting block 11 is made of magnetic material.
[0025] After the limiting block 11 is inserted, the limiting block 11 is magnetically attracted by the magnet 12 , which can prevent the limiting block 11 from accidentally falling off from the limiting hole 10 , thereby ensuring the fixing effect of the limiting block 11 on the correction plate 7 .
[0026] like Figure 3 As shown, a handle 13 is also included, and the limit block 11 is connected to the handle 13.
[0027] It is more convenient to move the limiting block 11 through the handle 13 , and the handle 13 provides a better force-bearing position.
[0028] like Figure 2 As shown, the operating disc 5 further includes an anti-skid pad 14 , which is wound around the operating disc 5 .
[0029] When the operating disc 5 is rotated, the anti-skid pad 14 can ensure stability during rotation and reduce slipping.
[0030] like Figure 2 As shown, a scale card 15 is also included, and the support frame 2 is provided with the scale card 15.
[0031] Through the scale marks on the scale card 15, the staff can adjust the position of the movable plate 6 according to the size of the bagged lactic acid bacteria produced this time, providing a good reference point and optimizing the adjustment process.
[0032] When the bagged lactic acid bacteria are transported on the conveyor 1, the design of the two-way adjustment screw 4 that rotates in the fixed block 3 at the top of the support frame 2 and is threadedly connected to the movable plate 6 allows the staff to adjust the sliding distance of the two parallel movable plates 6 in the support frame 2 by rotating the operating disc 5 to accommodate bagged lactic acid bacteria of different sizes, ensuring that they can pass smoothly and be effectively straightened. At the same time, the staff rotates the correction plate 7 according to actual needs and aligns the groove on the front side with the limiting hole 10 on the front side of the adjustment plate 9. Then, the limiting block 11 made of magnetic material is inserted into the limiting hole 10 and the groove to fix the position of the correction plate 7 and complete the angle adjustment of the correction plate 7. The provision of the magnet 12 enhances the connection stability between the limiting block 11 and the limiting hole 10, preventing the limiting block 11 from accidentally falling off. In addition, the handle 13 on the limiting block 11 provides a convenient way to move, and the anti-slip pad 14 on the operating disc 5 ensures stability during rotation. The scale card 15 on the support frame 2 provides an intuitive reference point for the staff, helping them to quickly and accurately adjust the position of the movable plate 6 according to the size of the bagged lactic acid bacteria, thereby optimizing the entire adjustment process and ensuring that the bagged lactic acid bacteria always remain parallel to the conveyor belt during transportation, laying the foundation for the smooth progress of subsequent processing work.
[0033] The above embodiments are provided for persons familiar with the art to implement or use the present invention. Personnel familiar with the art may make various modifications or changes to the above embodiments without departing from the utility model concept of the present invention. Therefore, the scope of protection of the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments, but should be the maximum scope of the innovative features mentioned in the claims.
