Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of fermented bean curd bottling, in particular to a dividing plate operating mechanism for bottling equipment. Background Art

[0002] Fermented tofu is a food made from small blocks of tofu, fermented, and salted. Its soft texture makes it difficult to package and store. In the tofu production industry, finished tofu is typically stored in glass bottles. A typical glass bottle is square at the bottom with a round opening at the top. Each bottle contains twelve blocks of fermented tofu (salted tofu), divided into two layers, each containing six blocks. The layers are numbered: the upper layer is labeled B1, B2, B3, B4, B5, and B6. B1, B3, B4, and B6 are located at the four corners of the bottle, with B2 located between B1 and B3, and B5 between B4 and B6. The fermented bean curd in the lower layer is T1, T2, T3, T4, T5 and T6. Fermented bean curd T1, T3, T4 and T6 are respectively located at the four corners of the fermented bean curd bottle. Fermented bean curd T2 is located between fermented bean curd T1 and T3, and fermented bean curd T5 is located between fermented bean curd T4 and T6.

[0003] Twelve pieces of fermented tofu are picked up in four steps. First, the fermented tofu B1, B3, B4, and B6 at the four corners of the lower layer are picked up and stacked in the fermented tofu bottle. Then, the two pieces of fermented tofu B4 and B6 in the middle of the lower layer are picked up and stacked in the fermented tofu bottle. Then, the fermented tofu T1, T3, T4, and T6 at the four corners of the upper layer are picked up and stacked in the fermented tofu bottle. Finally, the fermented tofu T4 and T6 in the middle of the upper layer are picked up and stacked in the fermented tofu bottle. When picking up the fermented tofu, the fermented tofu bottle needs to be placed on a dividing plate. After B1, B3, B4, and B6 are picked up and stacked in the fermented tofu bottle, the dividing plate needs to be rotated to the bottom of the next grabbing mechanism. A dividing plate operation mechanism is designed to cooperate with the grabbing mechanism to stack the fermented tofu. Utility Model Content

[0033] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2The bottle containing the fermented tofu (salt dough) is a common glass bottle for fermented tofu, with a square bottom and a round opening at the top. The fermented tofu is divided into two layers in the bottle, with six pieces of fermented tofu placed in the bottom layer and six pieces of fermented tofu placed in the top layer. To facilitate the description of the fermented tofu being grasped, the fermented tofu in the upper and lower layers are numbered separately. The fermented tofu in the lower layer is designated B1, B2, B3, B4, B5, and B6. The fermented tofu in the upper layer is designated T1, T2, T3, T4, T5, and T6. The fermented tofu in the bottom layer is arranged perpendicular to the fermented tofu in the upper layer.

[0034] Reference Figure 3 and Figure 4 A fermented bean curd bottling device includes an equipment frame 1, a rotating index plate mechanism 2, a first grabbing mechanism 3, a second grabbing mechanism 4, a third grabbing mechanism 5, a fourth grabbing mechanism 6, and an electrical intelligent control system. The fermented bean curd bottling device of the present invention can be used to bottle 12 pieces of fermented bean curd in a certain order.

[0035] The function of the electrical intelligent control system is to enable the equipment to achieve precise transportation and movement through the interaction of electric drive and control elements such as PLC, sensors, photoelectric switches, stepper motors, drivers and servo mechanisms, so as to realize the production actions required by the equipment.

[0036] The equipment frame 1 primarily supports the entire machine and connects several related modules. Two fermented bean curd bottling production lines are installed on the frame. The frame comprises a bottom bracket 11, support rods 12, and a top plate 13. Support rods 12 are secured to the side walls of bottom bracket 11, and top plate 13 is affixed to the tops of support rods 12. The indexing plate mechanism 2 primarily switches the fermented bean curd bottles relative to the various gripping mechanisms and positions for loading, rotating, and unloading bottles, enabling continuous operation to form an automated production line.

[0037] Reference Figure 5-Figure 14 The indexing plate operating mechanism 2 includes an indexing plate body 21, a rotary clamping mechanism 22, a paddle bottle entry connecting rod mechanism 23, a bottom support plate 24, a clamping pneumatic guide drive mechanism 25, a paddle bottle entry pneumatic drive mechanism, a bottle rotation trajectory control mechanism 26, and a paddle position control and protection mechanism 27. The bottom support plate 24 is fixed to the bottom bracket 11 by bolts. A rotating shaft 242 is fixed to the bottom support plate 24. The indexing plate body 21 is fixed to the top of the rotating shaft 242. An intermittent drive motor 241 that drives the rotating shaft 242 is fixed to the bottom of the bottom support plate 24.

[0038] The dividing plate body 21 is a circular plate. According to the production process requirements and the structural characteristics of the dividing plate operating mechanism 2, the dividing plate body 21 is divided into eight working position spaces in the circumferential direction. Each spatial position corresponds to a work station. These eight work stations are the first work station 211, the second work station 212, the third work station 213, the fourth work station 214, the fifth work station 215, the sixth work station 216, the seventh work station 217 and the eighth work station 218.

[0039] Below, the work content of the above eight workstations is explained in detail.

[0040] First station 211: Bottles are loaded and positioned and clamped. This step is the foundation for the next station. A photoelectric detection device is installed on the indexing plate 21 to determine whether the indexing plate at this station is loaded with bottles. If so, the indexing plate 21 rotates according to the required work cycle time to the second station 212.

[0041] The second station 212: grabs and transfers fermented bean curd B1, B3, B4, B6 to bottles and packs them in the order and position required. After packing is completed, the indexing plate body 21 rotates to the third station 213 according to the work cycle time requirement.

[0042] The third station 213: grab and transfer fermented bean curd B2 and B5 to the bottle and pack them in the order and position. After packing is completed, the indexing plate body 21 rotates to the fourth station 214 according to the working cycle time requirement.

[0043] The fourth station 214 is a bottle rotation station and has no actual process function. The bottle and fixture are rotated 90 degrees relative to the indexing turntable by the bottle rotation trajectory control mechanism 26 below the indexing turntable body 21 and enter the fifth station 215.

[0044] The fifth station 215: grabs and transfers fermented bean curd T1, T3, T4, T6 to the bottle and packs them in the order and position required. After packing is completed, the indexing plate body 21 rotates to the sixth station 216 according to the work cycle time requirement.

[0045] The sixth station 216: grab and transport fermented bean curd T2, T5 to the bottle and pack them in the order and position. After packing is completed, the indexing plate body 21 rotates to the seventh station 217 according to the working cycle time requirement.

[0046] The seventh station 217 is a bottle rotation station and has no actual process function. The bottle and fixture are rotated 90 degrees relative to the indexing turntable by the bottle rotation trajectory control mechanism 26 below the indexing turntable body 21 and enter the eighth station 218.

[0047] At the eighth station 218, the clamping mechanism 22 rotates to release the fermented bean curd bottle and unloads it. A photoelectric detection device detects whether the indexing plate has successfully unloaded a bottle. Once the bottle has been successfully unloaded, the indexing plate body 21 rotates according to the required cycle time and returns to the first station 211, beginning the next cycle.

[0048] The first grabbing mechanism 3 is responsible for grabbing the lower layers of fermented tofu (B1, B3, B4, and B6) into bottles. Its working position is the second station 212, and the first grabbing mechanism 3 is located directly above the second station 212. The second grabbing mechanism 4 is responsible for grabbing the lower layers of fermented tofu (B2 and B5) into bottles. Its working position is the third station 213, and the second grabbing mechanism 4 is located directly above the third station 213. The third grabbing mechanism 5 is responsible for grabbing the upper layers of fermented tofu (T1, T3, T4, and T6) into bottles. Its working position is the fifth station 215, and the third grabbing mechanism 5 is located directly above the fifth station 215. The fourth grabbing mechanism 6 is responsible for grabbing the upper layers of fermented tofu (T2 and T5) into bottles. Its working position is the sixth station 216, and the fourth grabbing mechanism 6 is located directly above the sixth station 216.

[0049] Each workspace on the indexing plate body 21 is provided with a rotary clamping mechanism 22, which positions and clamps the fermented bean curd bottle. A plurality of mounting holes 219 are evenly distributed on the indexing plate body 21, with each rotary clamping mechanism 22 corresponding to one mounting hole 219. The rotary clamping mechanism 22 includes a fixed plate 222 and a follower planetary turntable 221. The fixed plate 222 is located below the indexing plate body 21 and is fixedly connected to the bottom of the indexing plate body 21. A rotary core shaft 2221 is rotatably connected above the fixed plate 222. The follower planetary turntable 221 is located in the mounting hole 219 and is fixed to the top of the rotary core shaft 2221.

[0050] A bottle placement guide block 223 is fixed on the follower planetary turntable 221. The bottle placement guide block 223 is U-shaped, and the fermented bean curd bottle is located in the U-shaped cavity of the bottle placement guide block 223. A first clearance groove 2231 is opened on the bottle placement guide block 223.

[0051] A support and fixing assembly 224 is fixed beneath the fixed plate 222. This assembly includes a support and fixing block 2241 and a central hinge axis 2242 for the clamping jaws. The rotary core shaft 2221 passes through the fixed plate 222 and is fixed to the support and fixing block 2241. A second clearance groove 2243 is defined in the support and fixing block 2241, and the central hinge axis 2242 for the clamping jaws is fixed to the wall of the second clearance groove 2243. A bottle clamping jaw assembly 225 is mounted on the support and fixing block 2241. The bottle clamping jaw assembly 225 includes an upper connecting rod 2251 and a lower connecting rod 2252. Two upper connecting rods 2251 and two lower connecting rods 2252 are provided, intersecting each other and articulated at the intersection via the central hinge axis 2242 for the clamping jaws.

[0052] A positioning guide spindle 2244 is fixed to the bottom of the support and fixing block 2241. A compression return spring protective sleeve 227 is sleeved on the bottom of the positioning guide spindle 2244. A compression return spring 226 is fixed between the bottom of the support and fixing block 2241 and the compression return spring protective sleeve 227. The compression return spring sleeve 227 sleeves on the positioning guide spindle 2244. A lower connecting rod 2252 corresponds to each upper connecting rod 2251. One end of the lower connecting rod 2252 is hinged to the bottom end of the upper connecting rod 2251, and the other end of the lower connecting rod 2252 is hinged to the compression return spring protective sleeve 227.

[0053] The follower planetary turntable 221 has a third clearance slot 2212 for the upper connecting rod 2251 to rotate. The upper connecting rod 2251 passes through the first clearance slot 2231. The top of the upper connecting rod 2251 passes through the third clearance slot 2212 of the follower planetary turntable 221 and the first clearance slot 2231 of the bottle insertion guide block 223. A clamping block 2253 is fixed to the top of each upper connecting rod 2251 on the side closest to each other, contacting the fermented bean curd bottle. Below the first station 211 and below the eighth station 218, a clamping pneumatic guide drive mechanism 25 is installed. This pneumatic guide drive mechanism 25 drives the compression return spring protective sleeve 227 upward, thereby releasing the two upper connecting rods 2251 from the fermented bean curd bottle. The clamping pneumatic guide drive mechanism 25 is a first pneumatic cylinder, whose piston rod pushes the compression return spring protective sleeve 227 upward. The piston rod of the first cylinder can contact the bottom of the compression return spring protection sleeve 227, but there is no connection relationship between them.

[0054] Before placing the fermented bean curd bottle at the first station 211, the first cylinder piston rod is lifted upward, releasing the two upper connecting rods 2251. After the fermented bean curd bottle is placed at the first station 211, the cylinder piston rod is lowered. The compression return spring protective sleeve 227, under the action of the compression return spring 226, moves downward, causing the two upper connecting rods 2251 to clamp the fermented bean curd bottle. When the fermented bean curd bottle rotates to the eighth station 218, it needs to be removed. The first cylinder below the eighth station 218 pushes the compression return spring protective sleeve 227 upward, causing the two upper connecting rods 2251 to release the fermented bean curd bottle, allowing the fermented bean curd bottle to be removed.

[0055] The rotary clamping mechanism 22 also includes a rotation track lever assembly 228, which includes a steering lever 2281 and a guide wheel 2282. The steering lever 2281 is fixed to the side wall of the support and fixing block 2241, and the guide wheel 2282 is rotatably connected to the steering lever 2281. The bottle rotation track control mechanism 26 includes a guide ring plate 261 and a ring plate support rod 262. The ring plate support rod 262 is fixed between the guide ring plate 261 and the bottom support plate 24. Four ring plate support rods 262 are arranged around the guide ring plate 261. The bottom of the guide ring plate 261 defines a second track groove 263, along which the guide wheel 2282 slides. A torsion return spring 2283 is arranged between the bottom of the follower planetary turntable 221 and the fixed plate 222. A blocking block 2211 is fixed to the bottom of the follower planetary turntable 221, and one end of the torsion return spring 2283 abuts against the blocking block 2211; a plug-in slot 2222 is opened on the top surface of the fixed plate 222, and the other end of the torsion return spring 2283 is inserted into the plug-in slot 2222.

[0056] When the follower planetary turntable 221 rotates from the third station 213 to the fifth station 215 along with the index plate body 21, the follower planetary turntable 221 rotates 90 degrees. When the follower planetary turntable 221 rotates, the guide wheel 2282 moves along the second track groove 263, rotating the steering lever 2281 90 degrees, thereby rotating the follower planetary turntable 221 and the fermented bean curd bottle 90 degrees.

[0057] The second track groove 263 includes an arcuate groove 2631, a folded groove 2632, and a straight groove 2633. The arcuate grooves 2631 at both ends separate the folded groove 2632 from the straight groove 2633. The arcuate grooves 2631, the straight grooves 2633, the arcuate grooves 2631, and the straight grooves 2633 together form the second track groove 263. The folded groove 2632 is located above the fourth station 214. When the guide wheel 2282 of the steering lever 2281 passes through the folded groove 2632, the steering lever 2281 begins to slowly turn. When the steering lever 2281 reaches the fifth station 215, the steering lever 2281 rotates 90 degrees (relative to the steering lever 2281 on the first station 211), thereby rotating the fermented bean curd bottle 90 degrees. When the follower planetary turntable 221 rotates from the sixth station 216 to the eighth station 218, the guide wheel 2282 on the steering lever 2281 passes through the arc groove 2631, the straight groove 2633 and the arc groove 2631. Under the action of the torsion return spring 2283, the steering lever 2281 drives the follower planetary turntable 221 to rotate 90 degrees.

[0058] Each workspace corresponds to a paddle-injection linkage mechanism 23, which includes a bottle-injection paddle 231, a lifting link 232, and a guide rod seat 237. The guide rod seat 237 is fixed to the indexing plate body 21 via bolts. A fixed hinge support 238 is fixed to the guide rod seat 237, and the bottom of the bottle-injection paddle 231 is hinged to the fixed hinge support 238. A guide rod 236 is provided on the guide rod seat 237, extending through the guide rod seat 237. A lifting angled pull plate 239 is fixed to the bottom of the guide rod 236. A pneumatic drive mechanism for the paddle-injection paddle, which drives the lifting angled pull plate 239 upward and downward, is fixed to the bottom support plate 24.

[0059] A third intermediate rod 235 is hinged to the top of the guide rod 236, and a second intermediate rod 234 is hinged to the fixed hinge support 238. The third intermediate rod 235 is hinged to the middle position of the second intermediate rod 234 on the side away from the top of the guide rod 236. A first intermediate rod 233 is arranged above the second intermediate rod 234. One end of the first intermediate rod 233 is hinged to the end of the second intermediate rod 234 away from the fixed hinge support 238. The first intermediate rod 233 is hinged to the bottle-entry paddle 231.

[0060] When the paddle-into-bottle pneumatic drive mechanism 23 drives the lifting angle pull plate 239 to move downward, the bottle-into-bottle paddle 231 is inserted into the fermented bean curd bottle to support the fermented bean curd B1, B3, B4, B6 or the fermented bean curd T1, T3, T4, T6 to prevent the fermented bean curd in the fermented bean curd bottle from tipping over (the bottle-into-bottle paddle 231 needs to be inserted into the fermented bean curd bottle before the gripper is lifted to prevent the fermented bean curd from tipping over, which will be described in detail in the subsequent gripping mechanism action).

[0061] The pneumatic drive mechanism for inserting the paddle into the bottle is a second cylinder, the piston rod of which is fixed with two paddle plates 28, arranged one above the other. The paddle position control and protection mechanism is a cylinder 271, fixed to the bottom support plate 24. The top of cylinder 271 supports the indexing plate body 21. A first track groove 272 is defined on the outer wall of cylinder 271. A guide cam 2391 is fixed to the lifting angle pull plate 239, which slides along the first track groove 272. The first track groove 272 comprises an upper groove 2721 and a lower groove 2722. Each of the upper and lower grooves 2721 and 2722 has two sections, forming a circle formed by the upper and lower grooves 2721 and 2722. A pneumatic drive mechanism for inserting a paddle into a bottle is set at the position where the upper groove 2721 and the lower groove 2722 communicate. When the guide cam 2391 slides from the upper groove 2721 to the lower groove 2722, the guide cam 2391 slides between the two paddle plates 28, and the lower paddle plate 28 supports the guide cam 2391.

[0062] When the follower planetary turntable 221 moves from the first station 211 to the second station 212, or when the follower planetary turntable 221 moves from the fifth station 215 to the sixth station 216, the guide cam 2391 slides from the upper groove 2721 to the lower groove 2722, and the guide cam 2391 slides from the upper groove 2721 to the lower paddle plate 28. When the bottle-entry paddle 231 needs to be inserted into the fermented bean curd bottle, the piston rod of the second cylinder moves downward, thereby driving the two paddle plates 28 to move downward, thereby driving the guide cam 2391, causing the bottle-entry paddle 231 to rotate downward and enter the fermented bean curd bottle.

[0063] Afterwards, the bottle-entering paddle 231 rotates with the fermented bean curd bottle. When the second grabbing mechanism 4 or the fourth grabbing mechanism 6 puts the fermented bean curd into the bottle, the bottle-entering paddle 231 is pulled out of the fermented bean curd bottle.

[0064] With respect to the prior art, the present invention fills a gap in the field of food bottling. Currently, in the production of fermented bean curd products, manual or semi-manual bottling is essentially continued. The labor intensity is high and the efficiency is relatively low. The breakage rate of fermented bean curd (salt) blocks is high, requiring specialized personnel to inspect and repair the damage. Therefore, the present invention relates to a process and equipment specifically for bottling fermented bean curd (salt blocks), which greatly improves the production efficiency of the bottling process, can completely replace manual labor, and avoid a series of problems caused by manual production factors, such as food hygiene, waste ratio, employee health, etc., which affect corporate benefits and efficiency management. At the same time, the use of automated production and an intelligent control system can effectively enhance information exchange and connectivity between the various functional systems of the production line, strengthen accident risk control, and effectively improve product quality and production capacity per unit time.

[0065] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present invention are included in the scope of protection of the present invention.
