Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of prefabricated food production, and in particular to an automatic material bag sorting and bagging device. Background Art
[0002] As the pace of life accelerates, pre-prepared meals are gradually becoming more popular. These are dishes that come pre-cleaned, cut, seasoned, and even partially cooked, allowing consumers to simply heat or process them before eating. These products aim to simplify the cooking process, reduce preparation time and kitchen workload, and meet the modern consumer's demand for speed and convenience.
[0003] Each pre-made meal contains a variety of ingredient packages (staple food packages, meat packages, side dish packages, seasoning packages, soup packages, etc.). When packaging the pre-made meals, the various ingredient packages need to be placed separately into the packaging bags and then sealed. Nowadays, the process of packing ingredients into packaging bags is mostly done manually by workers. Multiple baskets containing ingredient packages are placed on the workbench. Workers take out the required ingredients from the multiple baskets and pack them into the packaging bags. However, manual bagging by workers often results in omissions or mispacking, and product quality cannot be guaranteed. Moreover, when there are many types of ingredient packages, more baskets need to be placed on the workbench, which results in some baskets being far away from the workers. Workers cannot quickly obtain the ingredient packages in the corresponding baskets and need to walk back and forth near the workbench, resulting in low bagging efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0033] In order to further understand the application content, features and effects of this application, the following embodiments are given as examples and described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0034] Reference Figure 1-Figure 3 , Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of the automatic sorting and bagging device for material bags in the embodiment. Figure 2 This is a side view of the automatic sorting and bagging device for material bags in the embodiment. Figure 3 The figure is a schematic diagram of the structure of some circulating chain plates in the embodiment. The automatic material bag sorting and bagging device in this embodiment includes a frame 1, a circulating conveying mechanism 2, multiple sorting mechanisms 3, and a funnel mechanism 4. The frame 1 includes a sorting frame 11, a slow-lifting frame 12, and a slow-down frame 13, which are connected in sequence. The circulating conveying mechanism 2 includes a conveying drive member and a circulating chain plate member 21. The driving end of the conveying drive member is connected to the circulating chain plate member 21. The circulating chain plate member 21 is sequentially wound around the sorting frame 11, the slow-lifting frame 12, and the slow-down frame 13. The surface of the circulating chain plate member 21 is surrounded by multiple sequentially connected transmission grooves 211. Each sorting mechanism 3 includes a material receiving member 31 and a transport member 32. Multiple material receiving members 31 are sequentially spaced apart and arranged beside the sorting frame 11 along the conveying direction of the endless chain plate 21. Each of the material receiving members 31 contains an ingredient package 100, and the transport members 32 are respectively arranged between the material receiving members 31 and the sorting frame 11. The funnel mechanism 4 is located at the end of the slow-down frame 13 away from the slow-down frame 12.
[0035] Re-reference Figure 1-Figure 3The automatic sorting and bagging device of the present embodiment is placed on the floor of the factory. Each material receiving member 31 contains the ingredient packages 100 required for bagging. The number of material receiving members 31 can be set according to the number of ingredient packages 100 required for pre-made food packaging. The conveying drive member drives the circulating chain plate 21 to rotate around the sorting frame 11, the slow-lifting frame 12 and the slow-down frame 13 in turn, thereby driving the transmission trough 211 to pass through multiple material receiving parts 31 in turn, and multiple conveying parts 32 transfer the ingredient packages 100 in the corresponding material receiving parts 31 to the transmission trough 211 in turn, that is, all the ingredient packages 100 required for bagging are transported to the transmission trough 211, and the packaging bag is put on the discharge port of the funnel mechanism 4. The transmission trough 211 is transmitted to the funnel mechanism 4 through the circulating chain plate 21 on the slow-lifting frame 12 and the slow-down frame 13, and the ingredient packages 100 in the transmission trough 211 are dumped into the packaging bag together, thereby completing the sorting and bagging process of the ingredient packages 100. Since multiple material receiving parts 31 are arranged at intervals on the side of the sorting frame 11 along the transmission direction of the circulating chain plate 21, when the transmission trough 211 passes through multiple material receiving parts 31 in sequence, multiple conveying parts 32 transfer the ingredient packages 100 in the corresponding material receiving parts 31 to the transmission trough 211 in sequence. In this way, all the ingredient packages 100 required for bagging are conveyed to the transmission trough 211. Compared with manual bagging, it can effectively avoid the situation where the ingredient packages 100 are missed or wrongly packed due to manual negligence, thereby improving product quality. At the same time, the transmission trough 211 is transmitted to the funnel mechanism 4 through the circulating chain plate 21 and turned, and changes from moving on the surface of the slow-down frame 13 toward the funnel mechanism 4 to moving on the bottom of the slow-down frame 13 away from the funnel mechanism 4, thereby dumping the ingredient package 100 in the transmission trough 211 into the funnel mechanism 4 and freely falling into the packaging bag at the discharge port at the bottom of the funnel mechanism 4, realizing automatic bagging and improving the continuity and efficiency of the bagging work.Specifically, the sorting rack 11, the slow-lift rack 12 and the slow-down rack 13 are all existing conveyor belt supports, wherein the sorting rack 11 is placed on the factory floor, the slow-lift rack 12 and the slow-down rack 13 are set in the air, and the connection between the sorting rack 11 and the slow-lift rack 12, and the connection between the slow-lift rack 12 and the slow-down rack 13 are all arc-shaped supports, which improve the stability of the circulating chain plate 21 when switching between different supports. It can be understood that the transmission slot 211 on the circulating chain plate 21 passes through multiple material receiving members 31 in sequence on the sorting rack 11 to receive different ingredient packages 100, and then switches to the sorting rack 11 according to the order. After passing through the slowly rising frame 12 and the slowly descending frame 13 for the second time, it arrives at the funnel mechanism 4. At this time, the transmission chute 211 turns at the end of the slowly descending frame 13 away from the slowly rising frame 12, and changes from moving on the surface of the slowly descending frame 13 toward the direction close to the funnel mechanism 4 to moving on the bottom of the slowly descending frame 13 away from the funnel mechanism 4, thereby pouring the ingredient packages 100 in the transmission chute 211 into the funnel mechanism 4 and freely falling into the packaging bag at the discharge port at the bottom of the funnel mechanism 4, thereby realizing automatic bagging of the ingredient packages 100 in the transmission chute 211 into the packaging bag. In this embodiment, the transmission direction of the transmission chain plate 21 is from the sorting rack 11 to the slow-lift rack 12. It can be understood that the moving direction of the transmission chain plate 21 on the surface of the sorting rack 11 is the transmission direction, while the moving direction of the transmission chain plate 21 on the bottom of the sorting rack 11 is opposite to the transmission direction. The moving direction of the transmission chain plate 21 on the slow-lift rack 12 and the slow-down rack 13 is similar to that on the sorting rack 11.
[0036] Re-reference Figure 1-Figure 3Preferably, the circulating chain plate 21 on the descending frame 13 is inclined relative to the horizontal plane, and the angle between the circulating chain plate 21 on the descending frame 13 and the funnel mechanism 4 is less than 45 degrees. In specific applications, since the descending frame 13 is inclined relative to the factory floor, that is, the horizontal plane, specifically, the height of the end close to the ascending frame 12 gradually decreases compared to the end close to the funnel mechanism 4, and the angle between the circulating chain plate 21 on the descending frame 13 and the funnel mechanism 4 is less than 45 degrees, when the transmission trough 211 moves on the surface of the descending frame 13, the bottom of the transmission trough 211 is also inclined relative to the horizontal plane, causing the ingredient packages 100 in the transmission trough 211 to slide down to the side wall with a lower horizontal height of the transmission trough 211 under the action of their own gravity, which is equivalent to letting the multiple ingredient packages 100 originally placed in the transmission trough 211 in a disorderly manner. The bottoms of the ingredient packages 100 are aligned so that the bottoms of the multiple ingredient packages 100 are at the same horizontal height. Then, when the ingredient packages 100 in the transmission trough 211 are poured into the funnel mechanism 4 at the same time, the multiple ingredient packages 100 can be synchronously dropped into the packaging bag with their bottoms at the same height, thereby avoiding the situation where the multiple ingredient packages 100 in the packaging bag are stacked in height due to the multiple ingredient packages 100 falling into the packaging bag one after another, thereby avoiding the situation where some ingredient packages 100 are exposed from the packaging bag and the packaging bag cannot be directly sealed, eliminating the time for subsequent manual sorting of the positions of the ingredient packages 100 in the packaging bag, and improving the bagging efficiency.
[0037] Re-reference Figure 1-Figure 3Preferably, the circulating chain plate member 21 includes a conveyor belt, multiple circulating chain plates 212, multiple side wall chain plates 213 and multiple partition chain plates 214. The conveyor belt is sequentially wound around the sorting frame 11, the lifting frame 12 and the lowering frame 13, and the conveyor belt is connected to the driving end of the conveying drive member. The multiple circulating chain plates 212 are sequentially connected and ring-arranged on the surface of the conveyor belt. The multiple side wall chain plates 213 are arranged in sequence and are evenly divided into two rows arranged opposite each other. The two rows of side wall chain plates 213 are respectively ring-arranged on the surface of the circulating chain plates 212. The multiple partition chain plates 214 are ring-arranged at intervals on the surface of the circulating chain plates 212, and the multiple partition chain plates 214 are all located between the two rows of side wall chain plates 213. The multiple side wall chain plates 213 and the multiple partition chain plates 214 cooperate with the surface of the circulating chain plates 212 to form a multiple transmission grooves 211. During specific application, the conveying drive member drives the conveyor belt to rotate in a circular motion around the sorting frame 11, the slow-lifting frame 12 and the slow-down frame 13, thereby driving the multiple circulating chain plates 212, the multiple side wall chain plates 213 and the multiple dividing chain plates 214 on the surface of the conveyor belt to synchronously circulate around the sorting frame 11, the slow-lifting frame 12 and the slow-down frame 13, that is, the multiple transmission troughs 211 circulate around the sorting frame 11, the slow-lifting frame 12 and the slow-down frame 13 respectively. When the transmission trough 211 moves on the surface of the sorting frame 11, it passes through the multiple material receiving members 31 in turn and receives the ingredient packages 100 in the multiple material receiving members 31, and then moves through the slow-lifting frame 11 and the slow-down frame 12 to dump the ingredient packages 100 into the packaging bag at the discharge port of the funnel mechanism 4, thereby realizing automatic and continuous sorting and bagging operations of the ingredient packages 100, improving the bagging efficiency while avoiding mispackaging and missing packing.
[0038] Re-reference Figure 1-Figure 3 Preferably, the conveying drive member includes at least one conveying drive body and a plurality of rotating wheels, which are arranged on the sorting frame 11, the lifting frame 12 and the lowering frame 13 at intervals and rotationally arranged in sequence along the transmission direction of the circulating chain plate 21. The conveyor belt is sequentially wound around the plurality of rotating wheels, and the driving end of the conveying drive body is connected to one of the rotating wheels. In specific application, in this embodiment, the sorting frame 11, the lifting frame 12 and the lowering frame 13 are each provided with a plurality of rotating wheels, and the sorting frame 11 is provided with a rotating wheel at one end away from the lifting frame 12, and the lowering frame 13 is provided with a rotating wheel at one end away from the lifting frame 12. The transmission chain plate 21 turns at the rotating wheels at the above two positions. In this embodiment, the driving motors of the conveying drive body are multiple, and the output shafts of the multiple driving motors are respectively connected to the multiple rotating wheels to improve the transmission force of the conveyor belt. Of course, the rotation speeds of the multiple driving motors are the same and are controlled by the same controller to be synchronously driven and stopped to ensure the stability of the conveyor belt movement.
[0039] Re-reference Figure 1-Figure 3Preferably, the circulating chain plate member 21 also includes a plurality of guide wheels, which are respectively arranged at the connection between the sorting frame 11 and the slow-lifting frame 12, and the connection between the slow-lifting frame 12 and the slow-down frame 13, and the plurality of guide wheels are respectively pressed against the surface of the conveyor belt and guide the transmission path of the conveyor belt. In specific applications, since the connection between the sorting frame 11 and the slow-lifting frame 12, and the connection between the slow-lifting frame 12 and the slow-down frame 13 are all arc-shaped, the conveyor belt can be guided by the setting of the guide wheels, and the conveyor belt can be pressed against the rotating wheel to avoid separation and disengagement of the conveyor belt from the rotating wheel, thereby improving the stability of transmission. Furthermore, the circulating chain plate member 21 also includes a plurality of pressing support wheels, which are respectively arranged at the bottom of the sorting frame 11, the bottom of the slow-lifting frame 12 and the bottom of the slow-down frame 13, and the plurality of pressing support wheels are respectively pressed against the plurality of circulating chain plates 212 and support the plurality of circulating chain plates 212. It is understood that, in this embodiment, multiple circulating chain plates 212 are sequentially connected and arranged around the conveyor belt surface, but the circulating chain plates 212 are not fixed to the conveyor belt surface. By setting the pressing support wheels, the circulating chain plates 212 located on the bottom surfaces of the sorting rack 11, the lifting rack 12, and the lowering rack 13 can be supported and pressed tightly against the conveyor belt, thereby preventing the circulating chain plates 212 from separating from the conveyor belt or moving out of sync, thereby improving the stability of the transmission of the circulating chain plate 21. Specifically, multiple circulating chain plates 212 are sequentially connected along the transmission direction. In this embodiment, the length direction of the circulating chain plates 212 is perpendicular to the transmission direction. Two side wall chain plates 213 are connected to one circulating chain plate 212, and the connection direction of the two side wall chain plates 213 is perpendicular to the transmission direction. The spacing between the two side wall chain plates 213 is less than the length of a single circulating chain plate 212. In this way, the pressing support wheels are arranged in pairs, and the two pressing support wheels are pressed against the two sides of the length direction of the circulating chain plates 212.
[0040] Re-reference Figure 1-Figure 3 Preferably, two adjacent circulating chain plates 212 are hingedly connected, and two adjacent side wall chain plates 213 are staggered with each other. In specific applications, since the two adjacent circulating chain plates 212 are hingedly connected, when the circulating chain plates 212 pass through the curved bracket and need to turn, the two adjacent circulating chain plates 212 can rotate relative to each other to cooperate with the conveyor belt to move in an arc or turn, and ensure that the circulating chain plates 212 are in contact with the conveyor belt. By staggering the two adjacent side wall chain plates 213, when the circulating chain plates 212 pass through the curved bracket, the two adjacent side wall chain plates 213 can be staggered with each other to avoid collision and jamming. Specifically, the single circulating chain plate 212 in this embodiment is in the shape of a long strip, and the two adjacent circulating chain plates 212 are hingedly connected by their long sides. In this way, when the circulating chain plates 212 pass through the curved bracket and need to turn, due to their small width, the circulating chain plates 212 can maintain a close relationship with the conveyor belt as much as possible, thereby improving the stability of the transmission.
[0041] Re-reference Figure 1-Figure 3 Preferably, multiple partition chain plates 214 are detachably mounted on the surface of the circulating chain plate 212. In specific applications, the length of the transmission trough 211 can be adjusted by removing and installing the partition chain plates 214 to accommodate the transport of ingredient packages 100 of varying sizes and lengths. In this embodiment, the partition chain plates 214 and the circulating chain plate 212 are detachably mounted by plugging. Furthermore, the spacing between two adjacent partition chain plates 214 is less than the sum of the lengths of any two ingredient packages 100 within the transmission trough 211. It can be understood that when the transmission trough 211 passes through the ascending frame 12, the bottoms of the multiple ingredient packages 100 move to contact with one of the partition chain plates 214 under the action of their own weight. When the transmission trough 211 moves to the descending frame 13, the bottoms of the multiple ingredient packages 100 move to contact with another partition chain plate 214 under the action of their own weight. Since the distance between two adjacent partition chain plates 214 is less than the sum of the lengths of any two ingredient packages 100 in the transmission trough 211, when the multiple ingredient packages 100 move from the partition chain plates 214 to the descending frame 13, When one partition chain plate 214 contacts another partition chain plate 214, the bottom of one ingredient package 100 is prevented from pressing on another ingredient package 100, thereby preventing the ingredient packages 100 from being stacked in height during bagging. It is ensured that when multiple ingredient packages 100 are moved to the descending rack 13, their bottoms are all in contact with another partition chain plate 214, that is, all ingredient packages 100 are at the same level with their bottoms, ensuring that they can all fall into the packaging bag after passing through the funnel mechanism 4.
[0042] Reference Figure 4 , Figure 4The schematic diagram of the structure of the material receiving member and the transport member in the embodiment is shown. Preferably, the material receiving member 31 includes a material receiving pool 311, a transmission track portion 312, a first material sorting track portion 313, a second material sorting track portion 314, a third material sorting track portion 315 and a material receiving body 316. A plurality of the same ingredient packages 100 are placed in the material receiving pool 311, and the plurality of material receiving pools 311 are sequentially arranged at intervals on the side of the sorting rack 11 along the transmission direction. The material receiving body 316 is arranged on the side of the material receiving pool 311, and one end of the transmission track portion 312 is provided. Adjacent to the material receiving pool 311, the other end of the transmission track portion 312 is adjacent to one end of the first material handling track portion 313, the other end of the first material handling track portion 313 is adjacent to one end of the second material handling track portion 314, one end of the third material handling track portion 315 is adjacent to the other end of the second material handling track portion 314, and the other end of the third material handling track portion 315 extends toward the direction of the transport member 32. The transmission speeds of the first material handling track portion 313, the second material handling track portion 314, and the third material handling track portion 315 increase successively. In specific applications, the first material handling track portion 313 includes a plurality of transmission rollers arranged side by side and a plurality of transmission drive motors that respectively drive the plurality of transmission rollers. The transmission rollers are rotatably arranged on the material receiving body 316, and the ingredient package 100 can be transported and moved on the plurality of transmission rollers. The specific structure and function of the second material handling track portion 314 and the third material handling track portion 315 are similar to those of the first material handling track portion 313. The transfer track section 312 includes an ascending track section 3121 and a reversing track section 3122. The lower end of the ascending track section 3121 is adjacent to the material receiving pool 311, one end of the reversing track section 3122 is adjacent to the higher end of the ascending track section 3121, and the other end of the reversing track section 3122 is adjacent to one end of the first material sorting track section 313. Both the ascending track section 3121 and the reversing track section 3122 include a conveyor belt support, a conveyor belt, a drive motor, and rotating wheels. Their structure and principles are similar to those of the sorting frame 11. A conveyor belt mechanism for transferring the ingredient packages 100 to the ascending track section 3121 is also provided at the bottom of the material receiving pool 311, and will not be further described here. It is understandable that the ingredient package 100 in the material receiving pool 311 passes through the ascending track portion 3121, the reversing track portion 3122, the first material handling track portion 313, the second material handling track portion 314, and the third material handling track portion 315 in sequence, and is then blocked by the blocking block 3151 provided at the other end of the third material handling track portion 315, and the transporting member 32 transports the ingredient package 100 to the transmission trough 211. It should be noted that the transmission speeds of the first material handling track portion 313, the second material handling track portion 314, and the third material handling track portion 315 increase in sequence, that is, the rotation speed of the transmission roller of the third material handling track portion 315 is greater than the rotation speed of the transmission roller of the second material handling track portion 314, which is greater than the rotation speed of the transmission roller of the first material handling track portion 313.The transmission speed of the ingredient package 100 on the first material sorting track part 313 is slow, and multiple ingredient packages 100 are close to each other. When the ingredient package 100 located on the first material sorting track part 313 is transmitted to the second material sorting track part 314, the faster transmission speed of the second material sorting track part 314 speeds up the movement speed of the ingredient package 100 and increases the distance from the adjacent ingredient packages 100 on the first material sorting track part 313, thereby separating the original multiple closely attached ingredient packages 100. Similarly, after the secondary accelerated transmission through the third material sorting track part 315, the two adjacent ingredient packages 100 are further separated, making it easier for the subsequent conveying part 32 to transport a single ingredient package 100. Furthermore, in this embodiment, the material receiving member 31 also includes a fourth transmission track portion 319. The structure of the fourth transmission track portion 319 is similar to that of the first material sorting track portion 313. The fourth transmission track portion 319 is arranged between the third material sorting track portion 315 and the second material sorting track portion 314, realizing three-way differential transmission to separate the material packages.
[0043] Re-reference Figure 4The lifting mechanism 314 is a blockage 316 that is used to lift the lifting device 310, and the lifting mechanism 314 is a blockage 316 that is used to lift the lifting device 310. Furthermore, the material receiving member 31 also includes a plurality of straightening brushes 318 arranged at intervals along the transmission direction of the first material handling track portion 313. The plurality of straightening brushes 318 are rotatably arranged on the material handling machine body 211 and are respectively located beside the first material handling track portion 313, the second material handling track portion 314 and the third material handling track portion 315. It can be understood that the placement angle of the ingredient package 100 is not fixed when it is transported on the first material handling track portion 313, the second material handling track portion 314 and the third material handling track portion 315. Through the setting of the straightening brush 318, the placement angle of the material package with a smaller placement angle error can be straightened after passing through the straightening brush 318, while the material package with a larger placement angle error will be blocked by the straightening brush 318 after passing through the straightening brush 318 and pushed back into the material receiving pool 311, ensuring that the placement angle of the material package transferred to the third material handling track portion 315 remains consistent. In this embodiment, the straightening brush 318 and the pressing brush 317 are both driven to rotate by a motor, which will not be described in detail here.
[0044] Reference Figure 5 and Figure 6 , Figure 5 This is a structural diagram of the circulating chain plate and the buffer positioning member in the embodiment. Figure 6This is a cross-sectional view of the buffer positioning member in the embodiment. Preferably, the sorting mechanism 3 also includes a buffer positioning member 33. A plurality of buffer positioning members 33 are respectively arranged across the sorting frame 11 and located directly above the transmission trough 211. A buffer positioning member 33 is respectively arranged corresponding to a transport member 32. The transport member 32 transports the ingredient package 100 in the material receiving member 31 to the buffer positioning member 33. The buffer positioning member 33 positions the ingredient package 100 and drops it into the transmission trough 211. In specific applications, the buffer positioning member 33 includes a transfer frame 331, two transfer driving bodies 332, and two transfer plates 333 respectively connected to the driving ends of the two transfer driving bodies 332. The transfer frame 331 is arranged across the conveying assembly 1 and located above the transmission trough 211. The two transfer driving bodies 332 are relatively arranged in the transfer frame 331 and respectively drive the two transfer plates 333 to move closer to or away from each other. When the two transfer plates 333 approach each other, the transport member 32 transports the ingredient package 100 at the other end of the third material sorting track portion 315 to between the two transfer plates 333. When the transport member 32 transports the ingredient package 100 to the transfer plates 333, the two transfer driving bodies 332 respectively drive the two transfer plates 333 toward each other. The two transfer plates 333 are arranged at an angle, and their surfaces form an angle, so that the ingredient package is positioned between the two transfer plates 333. At this time, the conveying drive member drives the circulating chain plate member 21 to move one of the transmission troughs 211 to the bottom of the transfer rack 331, and the two transfer drive bodies 332 respectively drive the two transfer plates 333 to move away from each other, so that the ingredient package 100 can fall into the transmission trough 211. Since the two transfer plates 333 are arranged at an angle, and the middle position of the two transfer plates 333 corresponds to the middle position of the transmission trough 211, this not only ensures that the ingredient package can accurately fall into the middle position of the transmission trough 211, but also the placement angle of the ingredient package 100 is also corrected by the transfer plates 333 when it is between the two relatively inclined transfer plates 333, ensuring that the placement angle will not be messy when it falls into the transmission trough 211. Specifically, the transfer drive body 332 is a cylinder.
[0045] Re-reference Figure 5 and Figure 6Preferably, the buffer positioning member 33 also includes two buffer driving bodies 334 and two buffer plates 335 respectively connected to the driving ends of the two buffer driving bodies 334. The two buffer driving bodies 334 are relatively arranged in the transfer frame 331, and respectively drive the two buffer plates 335 to move closer to or away from each other. The two buffer plates 335 are respectively located below the two transfer plates 333. In specific applications, the two buffer plates 335 are also relatively inclined. When the two transfer plates 333 move away from each other, the ingredient package 100 first falls between the two buffer plates 335 that are close to each other, and then the two buffer driving bodies 334 respectively drive the two buffer plates 335 to move away from each other so that the ingredients fall into the middle position of the transmission trough 211. As can be understood, the transport member 32 continuously transports the ingredient packages 100 to the transfer plate 333, while the endless chain plate 21 moves the distance of one transfer slot 211 at a time. Through the buffering effect of the buffer plate 335, one ingredient package 100 can be temporarily stored on the buffer plate 335. This allows the transport of the transport member 32 and the movement of the endless chain plate 21 to be better aligned and coordinated, thereby improving the stability of the automated operation. Furthermore, the buffer positioning member 33 also includes a bag detector, which is located within the transfer rack 331 and between the transfer plate 333 and the buffer plate 335. The bag detector can accurately identify whether any bag has fallen onto the buffer plate 335 after the two transfer plates 333 move away from each other. This prevents situations such as the transfer plate 333 being empty due to the transport member 32 not accurately transporting the bag. This prevents individual bags from being missed during subsequent bagging, thereby improving product quality. Specifically, the material bag detector can be a material drop sensor, and the buffer driving body 334 can be a cylinder.
[0046] Re-reference Figure 4Preferably, the transporting member 32 includes a transporting bracket 321, a lifting driving body 322, a swinging driving body 323, a swinging frame 324 and an adsorption portion 325. The transporting bracket 321 is arranged on the material receiving body 316, the lifting driving body 322 is arranged on the transporting bracket 321, the swinging driving body 323 is connected to the driving end of the lifting driving body 322, one end of the swinging frame 324 is connected to the driving end of the swinging driving body 323, and the adsorption portion 325 is arranged at the other end of the swinging frame 324. In specific application, when the ingredient package 100 is transferred to the other end of the third material sorting track part 315 and is blocked by the blocking block 3151, the lifting driving body 322 drives the swing driving body 323, the swing frame 324 and the adsorption part 325 to descend, and the adsorption part 325 adsorbs the material package to the other end of the swing frame 324. The lifting driving body 322 drives the swing driving body 323, the swing frame 324 and the adsorption part 325 to descend and rise to reset. The swing driving body 323 drives the swing frame 324 to swing 90° so that the material package moves to the top of the two transfer plates 333. The lifting driving body 322 drives the swing driving body 323, the swing frame 324 and the adsorption part 325 to descend, and the adsorption part 325 stops adsorption so that the material package falls between the two transfer plates 333. It should be noted that since the ingredient packages 100 are generally rectangular, they are aligned by the alignment brush 318 during transport on the third material handling track 315, aligning the length of the ingredient packages 100 with the transport direction of the third material handling track 315. The transport member 32 allows the ingredient packages to swing 90°, aligning their length with the transport direction of the circulating chain plate 21, thereby better fitting the rectangular transport trough 211. Specifically, the lifting drive 322 is a cylinder. The swinging drive 323 is a motor. The suction portion 325 is a vacuum suction head, which is connected to a vacuum pump.
[0047] Reference Figure 7-Figure 9 , Figure 7 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of the slowly rising rack and the slowly descending rack in the embodiment. Figure 8 This is another structural diagram of the slowly rising rack and the slowly descending rack in the embodiment. Figure 9 for Figure 8In the enlarged view of part A, preferably, the funnel mechanism 4 includes a funnel member 41, a spreading drive member 42 and two spreading members 43. The funnel member 41 is provided at the other end of the slow-down frame 13, and the two spreading members 43 are respectively provided at the bottom of the funnel member 41. The driving ends of the spreading drive member 42 are respectively connected to the two spreading members 43, and drive the two spreading members 43 to spread away or close together. In specific applications, the funnel member 41 is provided with a pouring port 411 at the top and a discharging port at the bottom, and the funnel member 41 is arranged perpendicular to the horizontal plane. Specifically, the side wall of the funnel member 41 is provided with a through port 412, the other end of the slow-down frame 13 is connected to the side wall of the funnel member 41, and the circulating chain plate member 21 passes through the through port 412. It can be understood that the through-hole 412 is opened on the side wall of the funnel 41 and is connected to the discharge port 411. The other end of the descending frame 13 extends into the funnel 41 through the through-hole 412 and the discharge port 411 and is connected and fixed to the inner wall of the funnel 41. The circulating chain plate 21 can achieve continuous rotation by avoiding the through-hole 412 and the discharge port 411. Figure 10 and Figure 11 , Figure 10 This is a schematic diagram of the placement of ingredient packages in the transfer trough when sorting the rack. Figure 11 This is a schematic diagram of the placement of the ingredient packages in the transmission trough when the slow-down rack is in operation. That is to say, the ingredient packages 100 in the transmission trough 211 all slide to the bottom of the transmission trough and contact the partition chain plate 214 after being tilted by the slow-down rack 13. Then, when they are transmitted to the funnel member 41 through the circulating chain plate member 21, the partition chain plate 214 in contact with the ingredient packages 100 further moves to bypass the other end of the slow-down rack 13 to achieve a turn, and moves from the surface of the slow-down rack 13 to the bottom surface. Without the supporting function of the partition chain plate 214, multiple ingredient packages 100 can naturally fall into the funnel member 41 from the pouring port 411 and fall into the packaging bag through the discharge port. Because the bottoms of the multiple ingredient packages 100 are aligned by the partition chain plate 214 before they fall naturally, the bottoms of the multiple ingredient packages 100 are all at the same horizontal height. Naturally falling on this basis can ensure that the multiple ingredient packages 100 fall into the packaging bag almost simultaneously, avoiding the situation where the multiple ingredient packages 100 fall into the packaging bag one after another due to the different falling heights of the ingredient packages 100, thereby avoiding the situation where the multiple ingredient packages 100 are stacked in height. It should be noted that the transmission of the circulating chain plate 21 in this embodiment is not a continuous linear movement, but moves once at intervals, each time moving a distance of the length of the transmission trough 21. Compared with continuous movement transmission, the intermittent movement transmission can effectively prevent the ingredient packages 100 from flipping when they leave the circulating chain plate 21, further ensuring that the multiple ingredient packages 100 can fall into the packaging bag at the same time.
[0048] Re-reference Figure 9Preferably, the expansion drive member 42 includes an expansion drive body 421, a connecting block 422 and two hinge blocks 423. The driving end of the expansion drive body 421 is connected to the connecting block 422. One end of the two hinge blocks 423 is hinged to the two ends of the connecting block 422 respectively. The other ends of the two hinge blocks 423 are hinged to the two expansion members 43 respectively. One end of the two expansion members 43 is hinged to the bottom of the funnel member 41 respectively. The other ends of the two expansion members 43 can move away from each other to expand or move closer to each other. In specific applications, the expansion drive body 421 is a cylinder, which is provided on the outer wall of the funnel member 41. The push rod of the expansion drive body 421 is connected to the connecting block 422. The push rod of the expansion drive body 421 retracts and pulls the connecting block 422 to move. The connecting block 422 drives the other ends of the two hinge blocks 423 to move closer to each other, thereby pulling the two expansion members 43 closer to each other. At this time, the packaging bag can be put on the outside of the two expansion members 43. The push rod of the expansion driver 421 extends and pushes the connecting block 422 to move. The connecting block 422 drives the other ends of the two hinged blocks 423 away from each other, thereby pushing the two expansion members 43 away from each other and expanding. In this way, the opening of the packaging bag is expanded and the packaging bag is simultaneously expanded and fixed. The conveying driver drives the circulating chain plate 21 to move a distance of the length of the conveying trough 21. The ingredient package 100 in the conveying trough 211 can then fall into the packaging bag through the pouring port 411, the funnel member 41, and the discharge port. The push rod of the expansion driver 421 retracts and returns to its original position, and the packaging bag can be removed from the expansion member 43. Specifically, the expansion member 43 is an expansion plate, which is hinged to the bottom of the funnel member 41 and hinged to the other end of the hinged block 423.
[0049] Preferably, the expansion drive member 42 also includes a foot switch, which is electrically connected to the expansion drive body 421 and the conveying drive member. In specific applications, a bagging workbench is set below the funnel member 41. The worker can control the expansion drive body 421 by stepping on the foot switch, that is, controlling the opening or closing of the two expansion members 43. After the worker uses both hands to put the packaging bag on the expansion member 43, he can step on the foot switch to cause the expansion member 43 to expand the packaging bag. At the same time, the conveying drive member drives the circulating chain plate 21 to move a distance of the conveyor trough 21, so that the ingredient package 100 falls into the packaging bag. After the worker releases the foot switch and removes the packaging bag, he can use the sealing equipment placed nearby to seal the packaging bag, eliminating the need to further arrange the position of the ingredient package 100, thereby improving bagging efficiency. Specifically, the side wall of the funnel member 41 facing the worker is provided with an observation window. Through the provision of the observation window, the worker can observe the falling of the ingredient package 100 inside the funnel member 41 in real time.
[0050] To sum up, since multiple material receiving parts 31 are arranged in sequence on the side of the sorting frame 11 along the transmission direction of the circulating chain plate 21, when the transmission trough 211 passes through multiple material receiving parts 31 in sequence, multiple conveying parts 32 will transfer the ingredient packages 100 in the corresponding material receiving parts 31 to the transmission trough 211 in sequence. In this way, all the ingredient packages 100 required for bagging are transported to the transmission trough 211. Compared with manual bagging, it can effectively avoid the situation where the ingredient packages 100 are missed or wrongly packed due to manual negligence, thereby improving product quality. At the same time, the transmission trough 211 is transmitted to the funnel mechanism 4 through the circulating chain plate 21 and turned, and changes from moving on the surface of the slow-down frame 13 toward the funnel mechanism 4 to moving on the bottom of the slow-down frame 13 away from the funnel mechanism 4, thereby dumping the ingredient package 100 in the transmission trough 211 into the funnel mechanism 4 and freely falling into the packaging bag at the discharge port at the bottom of the funnel mechanism 4, realizing automatic bagging and improving the continuity and efficiency of the bagging work.
