Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of enema machine technology, specifically a pneumatic quantitative enema machine. Background Technology

[0002] As an outstanding food processing equipment, the sausage stuffer achieves continuous, automatic, and quantitative sausage stuffing operations through its unique mechanical principles. It can easily handle the production of both Chinese sausages and other types of meat sausages. Its operation process is simple and easy to understand, allowing even beginners to quickly get started. Moreover, it is easy to maintain, and ordinary technicians can easily handle common faults. It excels in the accuracy and repeatability of sausage stuffing, accurately controlling the weight and quality of each sausage, greatly improving production efficiency and product standardization. It is a model of high efficiency and ease of operation. The entire machine is carefully crafted from high-quality stainless steel, which not only has an exquisite and beautiful appearance but also a compact and reasonable structural layout. It has excellent sealing and waterproof performance, and daily cleaning is convenient and efficient, effectively ensuring the hygiene and safety of food processing.

[0003] The existing pneumatic quantitative sausage filling machines have the following shortcomings: To ensure continuous sausage filling, most machines require the materials to be poured into the feeding hopper. If the amount of material added is not properly controlled, excessive material can easily accumulate in the feeding hopper. When the material accumulation exceeds a certain limit, it is very likely to cause machine blockage. This is because excessive material can block key parts such as the feeding channel, pumping device, or filling pipe, hindering the normal transport and extrusion of material. This forces the entire sausage filling process to be interrupted, making it impossible to continue subsequent sausage filling operations. This not only wastes materials but also seriously delays the production schedule. In addition, during the sausage filling process, in order to ensure the integrity of the sausage and the continuity of the filling process, it is often necessary for the staff to manually guide the sausage. Due to the instability and subjectivity of manual operation, it is difficult to ensure that each sausage receives a precise and consistent guiding effect, resulting in sausages of varying sizes and shapes. Utility Model Content

[0004] To address the problems mentioned in the background art, this utility model provides a pneumatic quantitative enema machine, including a casing and a feeding structure mounted on the top of the casing, as well as an enema structure located on the left side of the casing;

[0005] The feeding structure includes a transmission pipe and a discharge bin located above and connected to the transmission pipe, as well as a drive motor and a linear motor fixedly installed at the right end of the transmission pipe and at the top of the discharge bin. The output ends of the drive motor and the linear motor are fixedly connected to auger rod A and auger rod B. A medium pipe is provided below the transmission pipe, and a connecting pipe is provided between the medium pipe and the transmission pipe. A cylinder is installed at the right end of the connecting pipe, and the output end of the cylinder extends into the interior of the connecting pipe and is fixedly connected to a push plate.

[0006] Preferably, the enema structure includes a sleeve communicating with the left end of the connecting tube and a limiting plate located on the left side, as well as a fixing tube located behind the sleeve. The inner wall of the limiting plate is provided with a through hole for enema, and the outer wall of the sleeve is slidably connected with a locking ring connected by bolts.

[0007] Preferably, a baffle is fixedly connected to the left end of the fixed tube, and a connecting rod A is rotatably connected to the top of the limiting plate, with the other end of the connecting rod A rotatably connected to the top of the baffle.

[0008] Preferably, a rectangular plate is fixedly connected to the other end of the fixed tube, a B-link is rotatably connected to the top of the rectangular plate, a C-link is rotatably connected to the top of the B-link, and the other end of the C-link is rotatably connected to the top of the limiting plate.

[0009] Preferably, a D link is rotatably connected to the front of the B link via a damping shaft, and the top of the D link is provided with an abutment post that abuts against the C link.

[0010] Preferably, the bottom of the limiting plate is equipped with guide wheels to guide the enema, the top of the discharge bin is provided with a sealing cover, and the bottom of the discharge bin is fixedly connected with support legs.

[0011] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0012] This invention effectively improves the efficiency and stability of sausage enema operations through material feeding. The raw materials required for sausage enema are placed in the feeding hopper, and then the drive motor and linear motor are started. Both begin to rotate, driving the A and B auger rods to rotate at high speed. The A and B auger rods act like two highly efficient transmission "propellers," using their unique spiral structure to orderly transfer the raw materials from the feeding hopper to the transmission pipe. The raw materials move smoothly through the transmission pipe and then enter the medium pipe under gravity via the connecting pipe. Simultaneously, a cylinder pushes a pusher plate forward steadily. The powerful thrust generated by the pusher plate gradually pushes the raw materials in the medium pipe to the sleeve, thereby reducing the possibility of device blockage due to excessive raw materials.

[0013] This invention, through the design of its sausage-filling structure, allows workers to simply place the casing over the outside of the tube during the actual filling process. They then pull the limiting plate to precisely align it with the left end of the tube, thus creating a stable and precise sausage-forming channel. Once the filling operation begins, the filled sausage extends outward along the tube and passes through the through-hole. At this point, the guide wheel begins its crucial guiding function, allowing the sausage to move smoothly and orderly in the predetermined direction with its assistance. The worker's main tasks are to add raw materials promptly, precisely place the casing over the tube, and securely lock the casing using the locking ring. As the sausage gradually droops under its own weight during filling, it generates a downward pull. This pull acts on the locking ring, causing it to move slowly along the tube, forming a continuous filling process. This significantly reduces the frequency and intensity of manual intervention, effectively improving the automation level and production efficiency of the sausage-filling operation.

[0020] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0021] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, this utility model provides a pneumatic quantitative enema machine, including a casing 1 and a feeding structure 2 assembled on the top of the casing 1, and an enema structure 3 located on the left side of the casing 1;

[0022] The feeding structure 2 includes a transmission pipe 21 and a feeding bin 22 located above and connected to the transmission pipe 21, as well as a drive motor 23 and a linear motor 24 fixedly installed at the right end of the transmission pipe 21 and fixedly installed at the top of the feeding bin 22. The output ends of the drive motor 23 and the linear motor 24 are fixedly connected to an A auger rod 25 and a B auger rod 26. A medium pipe 27 is provided below the transmission pipe 21. A connecting pipe 28 is provided between the medium pipe 27 and the transmission pipe 21. A cylinder 29 is installed at the right end of the connecting pipe 28. The output end of the cylinder 29 extends into the interior of the connecting pipe 28 and is fixedly connected to a push plate 291.

[0023] The above solution effectively improves the efficiency and stability of the enema operation by feeding materials. The raw materials required for enema are placed in the feeding bin 22, and then the drive motor 23 and linear motor 24 are started. They begin to rotate, driving the A auger rod 25 and B auger rod 26 to rotate at high speed. The A auger rod 25 and B auger rod 26 are like two efficient transmission "propellers". With their unique spiral structure, they orderly transmit the raw materials in the feeding bin 22 to the transmission pipe 21. The raw materials move smoothly in the transmission pipe 21, and then enter the medium pipe 27 under the action of gravity through the connecting pipe 28. At the same time, the cylinder 29 pushes the pusher plate 291 to move forward steadily. The strong thrust generated by the pusher plate 291 gradually pushes the raw materials in the medium pipe 27 to the sleeve 31, thereby reducing the possibility of the device being blocked by too much raw material.

[0024] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, the enema structure 3 includes a sleeve 31 connected to the left end of the connecting tube 28 and a limiting plate 32 located on the left side, as well as a fixing tube 33 located behind the sleeve 31. The inner wall of the limiting plate 32 is provided with a through hole for enema. The outer wall of the sleeve 31 is slidably connected with a locking ring 311 connected by bolts. The left end of the fixing tube 33 is fixedly connected with a baffle 34. The top of the limiting plate 32 is rotatably connected with a connecting rod A 35, and the other end of the connecting rod A 35 is rotatably connected to the top of the baffle 34.

[0025] The above solution involves a design of the sausage enema structure 3. During the actual enema operation, the worker simply places the casing over the outside of the sleeve 31 and pulls the limiting plate 32 to precisely align it with the left end of the sleeve 31. This creates a stable and precise enema forming channel. Once the enema operation begins, the enema-filled sausage extends outward along the sleeve 31 and passes through the through-hole. At this point, the guide wheel 331 begins to perform its crucial guiding function, allowing the sausage to move smoothly along the predetermined direction with the assistance of the guide wheel 331. The sausage moves steadily and orderly. During this process, the main tasks of the staff are to add raw materials in a timely manner and accurately put the casing on the outside of the sleeve 31. The locking ring 311 is used to securely lock the casing. When the sausage gradually droops under its own weight during the sausage filling operation, it will generate a downward pull. This pull acts on the locking ring 311, causing the locking ring 311 to move slowly along the sleeve 31, forming a continuous sausage filling process. This greatly reduces the frequency and intensity of manual intervention and effectively improves the automation level and production efficiency of the sausage filling operation.

[0026] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, a rectangular plate 36 is fixedly connected to the other end of the fixed tube 33. A B-link 37 is rotatably connected to the top of the rectangular plate 36. A C-link 38 is rotatably connected to the top of the B-link 37, and the other end of the C-link 38 is rotatably connected to the top of the limiting plate 32. A D-link 39 is rotatably connected to the front of the B-link 37 through a damping shaft. An abutment post 391 that abuts against the C-link 38 is provided on the top of the D-link 39.

[0027] The above scheme is adopted: the setting of connecting rod 35, connecting rod 37, connecting rod 38, connecting rod 39 and abutting post 391 are all for fixing the position of limiting plate 32. Before enema, the casing needs to be put on the outer wall of the sleeve 31. At this time, the connecting rod 39 can be pushed first to release the abutting relationship between the abutting post 391 and the connecting rod 38. Then the limiting plate 32 starts to rotate around one end of connecting rod 37 as the axis. After the casing is put on, the limiting plate 32, connecting rod 39 and abutting post 391 are returned to their positions to fix the position of limiting plate 32.

[0028] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, the bottom of the limiting plate 32 is equipped with a guide wheel 331 to provide guidance for enema, the top of the discharge bin 22 is provided with a sealing cover 221, and the bottom of the discharge bin 22 is fixedly connected with a support leg 222.

[0029] Using the above solution: the support leg 222 can support the weight of the feeding bin 22 and the raw materials inside it, and the sealing cover 221 is normally closed when no material is added, and will only be opened when raw materials need to be added.

[0030] The working principle of this utility model:

[0031] First, turn on the drive motor 23 and linear motor 24, and check whether the A auger rod 25 and B auger rod 26 can rotate normally. Next, open the sealing cover 221, pour the sausage filling material into the discharge hopper 22, and then close the sealing cover 221. At this time, start the feeding structure 2. The drive motor 23 and linear motor 24 drive the A auger rod 25 and B auger rod 26 to rotate, and the material is transferred to the transmission pipe 21. Under the action of gravity, it enters the medium pipe 27 through the connecting pipe 28. At the same time, the cylinder 29 pushes the pusher plate 291 to move, pushing the material in the medium pipe 27 to the sleeve 31. Then, prepare for the sausage filling structure 3. Pushing D-link 39 releases the contact between the abutment post 391 and C-link 38, allowing the limiting plate 32 to rotate open around one end of B-link 37. The sausage casing is then placed over the outer wall of the sleeve 31, and the initial end of the casing (closest to the rightmost end of the sleeve 31) is secured using the locking ring 311. The limiting plate 32, D-link 39, and abutment post 391 are then returned to their fixed positions. Finally, the sausage filling process begins. Under pressure, the raw materials fill the casing, and the filled sausage passes through the through-hole of the limiting plate 32, moving orderly under the guidance of the guide wheel 331. As the weight of the sausage increases, gravity pulls the locking ring 311, causing it to slowly move along the sleeve 31, achieving continuous filling. During this process, the operator only needs to open the sealing cap 221 to add raw materials as needed.
