Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of food packaging, in particular to a multifunctional food particle packaging machine. Background Art

[0002] Food pellet packaging machinery is a type of food processing equipment. Existing technology uses automated packaging to reduce the large errors associated with manual packaging. However, during automatic packaging, if the pellets are not discharged smoothly, the food can accumulate at the discharge port, hindering the packaging process. In this case, the discharge port must be manually cleared before it can be used again. However, this exposes workers to direct contact with the food, resulting in unsanitary conditions and potential health risks. Furthermore, the clearing process halts production. Patent document No. CN208053681U discloses a packaging machine for pellet food. The machine utilizes a movable clearing plate to increase the fluidity of pellets within a clearing barrel. The clearing plate is activated by the interaction of an eccentric wheel and a spring, reducing the need for manual clearing. This makes the machine more efficient, labor-efficient, and reduces costs, time, and effort. However, the device cannot control the amount of food pellets discharged during the discharge process, and lacks a mechanism for automatically refilling the storage barrel. This leaves room for improvement in practicality and packaging efficiency. Utility Model Content

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0018] In order to make the above-mentioned objects, features and advantages of the present invention more obvious and easy to understand, the specific embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0019] Next, the present invention is described in detail with reference to schematic diagrams. For ease of illustration, cross-sectional views of device structures may be partially enlarged and not to scale when describing the embodiments of the present invention. Furthermore, the schematic diagrams are merely illustrative and should not limit the scope of protection of the present invention. Furthermore, in actual production, three-dimensional dimensions, including length, width, and depth, should be included.

[0020] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention more clear, the embodiments of the present invention will be described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0021] Figure 1-Figure 3 The following is a schematic diagram of the overall structure of a multifunctional food granule packaging machine of the present invention. Figure 1-Figure 3A multifunctional food particle packaging machine in this embodiment includes a support frame 100, a storage barrel 200 is fixed on the upper inner part of the support frame 100, a material discharge barrel 210 is provided at the bottom of the storage barrel 200, a self-filling device 300 is provided at the upper end of the storage barrel 200 and is connected, a discharge valve member 400 is provided at the bottom output end of the material discharge barrel 210, a weighing hopper 500 is suspended on the lower inner part of the support frame 100, the upper part of the weighing hopper 500 is connected to the output end of the discharge valve member 400, weighing components 600 are provided on both sides of the weighing hopper 500, and a discharger 510 is provided at the bottom of the weighing hopper 500.

[0022] The filling device 300 includes a bellows 310 fixedly connected to the top of the material storage barrel 200, a negative pressure blower 320 disposed on the upper portion of the bellows 310 and having its input end connected to the bellows 310, and a material delivery hose 330 having one end connected to the bellows 310 and the other end connected to the material source. It is understood that a plate valve is also provided at the bottom of the bellows 310, and a filter is provided at the input end of the negative pressure blower 320. When material needs to be added, the bellows 310 generates negative pressure under the suction of the negative pressure blower 320. The negative pressure force sucks the granular material in the material source area through the material delivery hose 330 and pumps it into the interior of the bellows 310. After completion, the negative pressure blower 320 is stopped, and the plate valve is then opened to discharge the material in the bellows 310 into the material storage barrel 200. This is simple and practical, and improves packaging efficiency while achieving automatic filling.

[0023] The discharge valve member 400 includes a pipe valve 410 whose input end is connected to the output end at the bottom of the discharge barrel 210, and a dust-proof soft curtain 420 connected at one end to the output end of the pipe valve 410 and at the other end to the side of the open top of the weighing hopper 500. It can be understood that when the granular material discharged from the storage barrel 200 to the weighing hopper 500 reaches a specified weight, the pipe valve 410 will automatically close to prevent the weighing hopper 500 from exceeding the weight limit. In addition, the dust-proof soft curtain 420 can prevent external dust from entering the weighing hopper 500 through the gap between the pipe valve 410 and the weighing hopper 500, thereby ensuring the cleanliness and hygiene of the food particles. The discharge device 510 includes a discharge nozzle 511 located at the bottom output end of the weighing hopper 500, a fixed ear 512 fixed to one side of the bottom of the discharge nozzle 511, a sealing plate 513 covering and matching the bottom opening of the discharge nozzle 511, a movable ear 514 fixed to one side of the sealing plate 513 and horizontally connected to the fixed ear 512 via a rotating shaft, and a stepping motor 515 mounted on the upper end of the fixed ear 512, with its output end connected to the rotating shaft of the movable ear 514. When the material in the weighing hopper 500 needs to be released, the stepping motor 515 drives the movable ear 514 and sealing plate 513 to rotate, causing the bottom opening of the discharge nozzle 511 to open, allowing the material to be automatically discharged. The weighing assembly 600 includes a fixing plate 1 610 fixed to both sides of the weighing hopper 500, a weighing sensor 620 disposed at the bottom of the fixing plate 1 610, and a fixing plate 2 630 connected to the bottom of the weighing sensor 620 and fixedly mounted on the inner side of the support frame 100. It can be understood that when the weight of the weighing sensors 620 on both sides reaches a set value, the side control system will immediately close the discharge valve 400. Specifically, in this embodiment, during filling, the storage barrel 200 can continuously introduce granular material into the weighing hopper 500 through the discharge barrel 210 and the discharge valve 400. At the same time, the weighing assembly 600 will monitor the continuous increase in the weight of the weighing hopper 500 in real time. When the increase reaches a specified amount, the control system, which receives information feedback, will immediately close the discharge valve 400 and then open the discharger 510 to allow the material to be discharged smoothly. This effectively avoids the disadvantage of existing devices that cannot control the amount of food particles discharged during the discharge process, thereby improving the practicality and packaging efficiency of the device.

[0024] Furthermore, a controller 700, which is the master control unit of the multifunctional food particle packaging machine, is also provided on one side of the support frame 100. The staff can use the controller 700 to perform integrated control and setting of the driving unit and the detection unit of the entire device, making it more convenient to use.

[0025] While the present invention has been described above with reference to specific embodiments, various modifications may be made and equivalent components may be substituted without departing from the scope of the present invention. In particular, as long as no structural conflicts exist, the various features of the embodiments disclosed herein may be combined with one another in any manner, and the omission of an exhaustive description of these combinations in this specification is solely for the sake of space and resource conservation. Therefore, the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed herein, but encompasses all technical solutions within the scope of the claims.
