Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of food processing utensils, in particular to a fish ball storage device for a seafood mushroom fish ball forming machine. Background Art

[0002] Fish ball shaping is a critical step in the production of seafood mushroom fish balls. Currently, a variety of shaping methods are commonly used on the market, including natural cooling, low-temperature freezing, boiling, frying, and steaming. However, regardless of the shaping method used, a suitable fish ball storage device is required to ensure the stability and quality of the fish balls during the shaping process.

[0003] Traditional fish ball storage devices mainly include stainless steel trays, plastic turnover boxes, silicone molds and conveyor belts. Although stainless steel trays are sturdy, durable and easy to clean, the number of fish balls they can hold is limited in large-scale production, and they require frequent manual operation, which is inefficient. Plastic turnover boxes are relatively low in cost and large in capacity, but fish balls are easily squeezed against each other in the turnover boxes, resulting in irregular shapes. Silicone molds can make fish balls neatly shaped, but when the number of molds is limited, it is difficult to meet large-scale production needs. Conveyor belts can achieve automated transportation. Conveyor belt storage devices are mainly composed of metal conveyor belts, drive devices, support structures and other parts. Filter holes and transmission plates for driving fish balls are set on the metal conveyor belts. The drive device is usually composed of a motor, a reducer and transmission components, which provide stable power for the conveyor belt so that the conveyor belt can run at the set speed. In actual use, the conveyor belt storage device will be installed in the setting water pool of the setting machine, mainly used to remove them from the setting water pool for air drying or other subsequent operations.

[0004] With the continuous growth of the market demand for seafood mushroom fish balls, the existing conveyor belt type fish ball storage device has gradually exposed some problems during use. For example, because the water in the shaping pool is not continuously flowing, the fish balls need to accumulate to a certain amount before they can move to a position close to the storage device. In addition, because the transmission belt is in continuous operation, the water near the conveyor belt will be in a state of continuous fluctuation, which will affect the movement of the fish balls toward the conveyor belt, causing a large number of fish balls to accumulate in the water outside the transmission belt. When the transmission belt is running, the transmission plate can only carry a few fish balls at a time, or even cannot take away a fish ball. This undoubtedly makes the efficiency of the storage device relatively low. Therefore, it is urgently needed to improve the existing conveyor belt type fish ball storage device.

[0005] Based on this, the purpose of the present invention is to provide a fish ball storage device for a seafood mushroom fish ball forming machine to solve the technical problems mentioned in the above background technology.

[0006] To achieve the above-mentioned object, the present invention provides the following technical solution: a fish ball storage device for a seafood mushroom fish ball forming machine, comprising a device body and a storage and conveying component, wherein a mounting frame is mounted on the outer wall of the device body, and a rotating rod is rotatably mounted on the mounting frame, and the rotating rod is connected to an external driving unit;

[0007] The outer wall of the rotating rod is provided with a plurality of guide plates for pushing the fish balls toward the storage and conveying component. The outer wall of the guide plates is provided with a plurality of flow grooves, and a buffer plate is provided at the outer end of the guide plates for reducing damage to the fish balls when the guide plates push the fish balls.

[0008] The guide plate is rotatably connected to the rotating rod, and a positioning assembly for supporting the guide plate is provided on the outer wall of the rotating rod. A position control plate for releasing the support provided by the positioning assembly to the guide plate is installed on the outer wall of the mounting frame.

[0010] Furthermore, the guide plates are installed in multiple groups at equal angles on the outer wall of the rotating rod, and the guide plates are designed as inclined plates.

[0011] By adopting the above technical solution, when the fish ball is pushed and continues to rotate, its shape and angle can guide the fish ball to prevent it from remaining.

[0012] Furthermore, the width of the diverter groove is smaller than the diameter of the fish ball, and the corners of the diverter groove are all designed with arc-shaped rounded corners.

[0013] By adopting the above technical solution, the fish balls are prevented from passing through the diversion groove when the guide plate rotates.

[0014] Furthermore, the cross section of the buffer plate is designed to be a quarter-circular ring, and the width of the buffer plate is the same as the spacing between the multiple groups of diverter grooves.

[0015] By adopting the above technical solution, the damage to the fish balls when the guide plate pushes the fish balls can be effectively reduced.

[0016] Furthermore, the positioning assembly includes a positioning frame slidably mounted on the outer wall of the rotating rod, and a buffer wheel rotatably mounted on the end of the positioning frame and abutting against the outer wall of the guide plate, and multiple groups of springs connected to the positioning frame are installed inside the outer wall of the rotating rod.

[0017] By adopting the above technical solution, the guide plate plays a role of auxiliary support and angle adjustment during its rotation.

[0018] Furthermore, the outer end of the buffer wheel is located outside the material guide plate, and when the buffer wheel follows the movement of the rotating rod, the outer end of the buffer wheel will contact the outer wall of the position control plate.

[0019] By adopting the above technical solution, the support for the material guide plate is automatically released, thereby further preventing fish balls from remaining.

[0020] Furthermore, the position control plate is installed obliquely on the outer wall of the mounting frame, and the length of the position control plate is smaller than the distance between the outer wall of the guide plate and the mounting frame, and the minimum distance between the end corners of the position control plate and the rotating rod is smaller than the distance between the buffer wheel and the rotating rod.

[0021] By adopting the above technical solution, it is ensured that the subsequent material guide plate can be smoothly reset for subsequent recycling.

[0022] In summary, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0023] The utility model drives the guide plate to rotate by the rotating rod, which can separate a large number of fish balls and push them to the storage and conveying components, effectively offsetting the influence of fluctuations, so that more fish balls can be taken away by the storage and conveying components, and significantly improving work efficiency. At the same time, the diversion groove on the guide plate reduces the resistance to rotation in water, and its shape and angle can guide the fish balls to prevent residue. The design of the buffer plate can reduce the damage to the fish balls when pushing them, ensure the integrity of the fish balls, and improve product quality. In addition, the cooperation of the positioning component, the control plate and the spring can automatically return to the initial position after the guide plate completes a guiding action, without manual intervention, thus ensuring the continuity and stability of the device, reducing the cost of manual operation, and improving the degree of automation of the entire device, so as to facilitate continuous and stable operation during the final production process of seafood mushroom fish balls.

[0032] 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. The embodiments described below with reference to the drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain the present invention, and cannot be understood as limiting the present invention.

[0033] The following describes an embodiment of the present invention based on its overall structure.

[0034] This embodiment provides a fish ball storage device for a seafood mushroom fish ball forming machine to solve the problems of low efficiency and other problems existing in the use of existing conveyor belt fish ball storage devices, thereby ensuring the stability and quality of the fish balls during the forming process;

[0035] like Figure 1 - Figure 5 As shown, the fish ball storage device mainly includes a device body 1, a storage and conveying component 2, a mounting frame 3, a rotating rod 4, a material guide plate 5, a diverter trough 51, a buffer plate 52, and a positioning assembly consisting of a positioning frame 6, a buffer wheel 7 and a spring 8, and a position control plate 9;

[0036] Among them, the device body 1 serves as the basic structure of the entire storage device and provides an installation basis for other components. The storage and conveying component 2 is used to convey the fish balls and plays a conveying role during the storage process of the fish balls.

[0037] In this embodiment, the mounting frame 3 is installed on the outer wall of the device body 1 to provide support for the rotation installation of the rotating rod 4; the rotating rod 4 is rotatably installed on the mounting frame 3 and is connected to the external driving unit. At the same time, multiple groups of guide plates 5 are installed on the outer wall of the rotating rod 4, and their rotation can drive the guide plates 5 to move, thereby pushing the fish balls.

[0038] In some examples, the external driving unit may be a motor mounted on the mounting bracket 3 and connected to the rotating rod 4 .

[0039] Of course, in other examples, the external driving unit can also be a power tool such as a belt drive pulley set or a sprocket drive set connected to the rotating rod 4 and the driving motor of the storage conveying component 2. In this embodiment, the external driving unit is not fully limited.

[0040] The guide plate 5 in this embodiment is inclined and distributed at equal angles on the outer wall of the rotating rod 4. Its function is to push the fish balls in the direction of the storage and conveying component 2; at the same time, a plurality of groups of diversion grooves 51 are opened on the outer wall of the guide plate 5. The width of the diversion grooves 51 is smaller than the diameter of the fish balls and the corners are designed with arc-shaped rounded corners. In this way, the resistance can be reduced when the guide plate 5 rotates and contacts with water. At the same time, when the fish balls continue to rotate after being pushed, its shape and angle can guide the fish balls to prevent residue; a buffer plate 52 is installed at the outer end of the guide plate 5. The cross-section of the buffer plate 52 is a quarter-circular ring, and the width is the same as the spacing between the diversion grooves 51, which can effectively reduce the damage to the fish balls when the guide plate 5 pushes the fish balls.

[0041] The positioning assembly in this embodiment is disposed on the outer wall of the rotating rod 4 and is used to support the guide plate 5;

[0042] It includes a positioning frame 6 slidably mounted on the outer wall of the rotating rod 4;

[0043] Among them, the buffer wheel 7 is rotatably installed at the end of the positioning frame 6 and is attached to the outer wall of the guide plate 5, playing the role of auxiliary support and angle adjustment during the rotation of the guide plate 5, and the spring 8 is installed in the outer wall of the rotating rod 4 and is connected to the positioning frame 6, providing elastic restoring force for the movement of the positioning frame 6.

[0044] The position control plate 9 in this embodiment is obliquely mounted on the outer wall of the mounting frame 3. Its length is less than the distance between the outer wall of the guide plate 5 and the mounting frame 3. The minimum distance between the end corner of the position control plate 9 and the rotating rod 4 is less than the distance between the buffer wheel 7 and the rotating rod 4.

[0045] When the material guide plate 5 is rotated by the rotating rod 4, the outer end of the buffer wheel 7 will contact the outer wall of the control plate 9, so that the buffer wheel 7 pushes the positioning frame 6 to slide in the direction of the spring 8 under the action of the control plate 9, thereby releasing the support for the material guide plate 5. The material guide plate 5 changes its angle under the action of its own weight to further prevent fish balls from remaining; when the buffer wheel 7 is separated from the control plate 9, the spring 8 pushes the buffer wheel 7 through the positioning frame 6, so that the material guide plate 5 is reset for subsequent recycling.

[0046] Through the above-mentioned structural design, the utility model can effectively improve the conveying efficiency of fish balls, reduce the residue and damage of fish balls, and at the same time realize the automatic resetting of the guide plate 5, thereby improving the efficiency and stability of the entire fish ball shaping production process, and meeting the needs of seafood mushroom fish ball production enterprises for efficient and high-quality production.

[0047] The working principle of the present invention is as follows: when using the device, first start the device body 1, so that the storage and conveying component 2 starts to operate, and the driving unit runs synchronously at the same time. At this time, the rotating rod 4 obtains the power of rotation, which will drive the multiple groups of guide plates 5 to start operating. During the rotation of the guide plates 5, the buffer plates 52 will contact the fish balls in the shaping pool to guide the fish balls. Because the guide plates 5 are still rotating at this time, they will separate a large number of fish balls. Some of the fish balls will move toward the storage and conveying component 2 under the push of the guide plates 5. The rotating guide plates 5 can offset the influence of the fluctuations generated by the storage and conveying component 2 during operation on the fish balls, thereby ensuring that a large number of fish balls will move to the top of the part of the storage and conveying component 2 located in the pool water, ensuring that the storage and conveying component 2 can smoothly take away the fish balls after operation, thereby improving work efficiency;

[0048] When the guide plate 5 is in contact with the water, the guide plate 5 is prevented from remaining on the guide plate 5 by the diverter groove 51.

[0049] When the rotating rod 4 drives the guide plate 5 to continue rotating, the buffer wheel 7 will separate from the control plate 9. At this time, multiple sets of springs 8 push the buffer wheel 7 through the positioning frame 6, so that the buffer wheel 7 pushes the guide plate 5 back to its original position, causing the guide plate 5 to be reset, which is convenient for subsequent use.

[0050] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, these specific embodiments are merely explanations of the present invention and are not limitations on the present invention. The specific features, structures, materials, or characteristics described may be combined in a suitable manner in any one or more embodiments or examples. After reading this specification, those skilled in the art may make modifications, substitutions, and variations to the embodiments as needed without departing from the principles and purpose of the present invention, but as long as they are within the scope of the claims of the present invention, they are protected by patent law.
