Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of weighing mechanisms, in particular to an automatic weighing mechanism for beef jerky packaging. Background Art
[0002] Beef jerky, a common snack food, typically requires multiple steps in its packaging process, one of the most critical being weighing. To ensure the accuracy of each bag's net weight, automated weighing is typically required. This involves conveying the jerky to a weighing area via a conveyor mechanism, then manually weighing the jerky to ensure each package meets the required weight. The jerky is then pushed into the packaging bag, completing the unloading process. Finally, the bag is sealed and subsequently processed, such as labeling and packaging. However, manual weighing currently cannot meet the needs of modern production lines. Therefore, the development of automated weighing and packaging equipment has become a growing industry need.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0024] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0025] See also Figure 1 —5. An automatic weighing mechanism for packaging beef jerky, comprising a conveying mechanism 100 and a weighing mechanism cooperating with the conveying mechanism 100. The weighing mechanism comprises a mounting base 201, a work station disk 202, a weighing component 203, a pushing component 204, and a driving motor 205. Specifically, the work station disk 202 is rotatably connected to the mounting base 201. Specifically, the mounting base 201 is fixedly connected to a base 206, which is provided with a rotating groove 207. The inner wall of the rotating groove 207 is provided with an annular groove 208. A rotating platform 209 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the work station disk 202. A rotating ring 210 is fixedly connected to the rotating platform 209. The rotating platform 209 is located in the rotating groove 207, and the rotating ring 210 is located in the annular groove 208.
[0026] Furthermore, a drive motor 205 is fixedly connected to the mounting base 201, and the drive motor 205 is power-connected to the work station disk 202. That is, a shaft 211 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the rotating platform 209, and the drive motor 205 is power-connected to the shaft 211. In this way, the drive motor 205 can drive the work station disk 202 to rotate.
[0027] In addition, the above-mentioned work station disk 202 is further provided with a plurality of work station slots 212, and each group of work station slots 212 is rotatably connected to a group of weighing components 203. In the embodiment, the weighing component 203 includes a weighing box 213, a weight sensor 214 and a weighing disk 215, that is, the weighing box 213 is rotatably connected in the work station slot 212, and the area of the weighing box 213 located in front of the rotation point is the front end 216, and the area located behind the rotation point is the rear end 217. Here, the weight of the front end 216 is lower than the weight of the rear end 217, and each group of work station slots 212 is fixedly connected to a support 218, and the rear end 217 is in conflict with the support 218, so that the weighing box 213 is stably located in the work station slot 212. When the rotation angle of the weighing box 213 is less than 70°, the weighing box 213 can be restored to its original position under the action of gravity;
[0028] Furthermore, a weight sensor 214 is fixedly connected to the rear end portion 217, a weighing plate 215 is fixedly connected to the weight sensor 214, and a discharge port 219 is provided on the front end portion 216 corresponding to the weighing plate 215. When beef jerky is placed on the weighing plate 215, the weight of the beef jerky can be detected by the weight sensor 214.
[0029] Furthermore, a pushing component 204 is fixedly connected to the mounting base 201 in conjunction with a set of weighing components 203. The pushing component 204 can push the weighing components 203 to rotate, and the conveying mechanism 100 corresponds to the set of weighing components 203. Specifically, the pushing component 204 corresponds to the rear end portion 217, and the conveying mechanism 100 also corresponds to the rear end portion 217. In this way, the beef jerky conveyed by the conveying mechanism 100 can fall onto the weighing plate 215 in the weighing box 213, and the pushing component 204 can push the rear portion of the weighing box 213.
[0030] Furthermore, the pushing component 204 includes an electric telescopic cylinder 220 and a pushing rod 221. That is, the electric telescopic cylinder 220 is fixedly connected to a corresponding set of weighing components 203 on the mounting base 201. The piston end of the electric telescopic cylinder 220 is fixedly connected to the pushing rod 221. The pushing rod 221 corresponds to the rear end 217. In this way, when the electric telescopic cylinder 220 drives the pushing rod 221 to rise, the pushing rod 221 can push the weighing box 213 to rotate. When the electric telescopic cylinder 220 drives the pushing rod 221 to descend, the weighing box 213 can rotate and return to its original position under the action of the weight.
[0031] Finally, a material guide frame 222 is fixedly connected to the corresponding material discharge port 219 on the weighing box 213, and a material guide ramp 223 is provided on the front end portion 216 to cooperate with the material guide frame 222. The beef jerky on the weighing plate 215 can be guided to the material guide frame 222 through the material guide ramp 223, and the beef jerky can be guided into the packaging bag through the material guide frame 222.
[0032] In summary, this embodiment discloses an automatic weighing mechanism for beef jerky packaging, which is mainly used for weighing beef jerky packaging. Specifically, the conveying mechanism 100 can convey the beef jerky. When the conveying mechanism 100 conveys the beef rods, there is a certain distance between the two groups of beef jerky, and the material is not intensively discharged. The conveyed beef jerky falls into the corresponding weighing plate 215 in turn. The weight of the beef jerky on the weighing plate 215 can be detected by the weight sensor 214. When the weight reaches the set value, the driving motor 20 5 drives the work station plate 202 to rotate. At this time, another set of weighing boxes 213 corresponds to the conveying mechanism 100. When the weighing box 213 with beef jerky corresponds to the pushing component 204, the electric telescopic cylinder 220 can drive the pushing rod 221 to rise. At this time, the pushing rod 221 pushes the weighing box 213 to rotate, so that the beef jerky inside can be pushed into the packaging bag. After the material is unloaded, the electric telescopic cylinder 220 drives the pushing rod 221 to descend. At this time, under the action of gravity, the weighing box 213 returns to its original position, and the cycle continues.
