Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of cutting equipment technology, specifically an integrated coding and cutting equipment for dairy product workshops. Background Technology
[0002] In traditional packaging bag production line systems, as the bags are steadily transported along the line, color mark sensors continuously scan and monitor their surfaces. Once a preset color mark signal is detected, a feedback message is immediately sent to the control module. Upon receiving the trigger signal from the color mark sensor, the control module sends a start command to the inkjet printer, which then sprays ink and other marking materials onto the surface of the packaging bag to create various required marking information, such as product name, specifications, production date, and batch number. After marking is complete, a cutting device cuts the packaging bag into individual units that meet the specified dimensions.
[0003] However, in traditional production line designs, the coding device and the cutting module are two independent units with no direct interaction, operating at different frequencies and rhythms. The coding frequency of the coding device often depends on its internal inkjet control mechanism, the printhead's response speed, and the coding interval parameters set by the control module. The cutting frequency of the cutting module, on the other hand, is mainly constrained by the cutting blade's movement speed, the drive motor's power and speed, and the required cutting dimensions.
[0004] When the coding frequency is higher than the cutting frequency, the coding device may perform multiple coding operations on the same packaging bag or the same area of the packaging bag between two adjacent cutting operations due to its own coding rhythm, resulting in multiple coding and making the marking information on the surface of the packaging bag chaotic and complicated.
[0005] Conversely, when the coding frequency is lower than the cutting frequency, it is very easy for under-coding or missed coding to occur. During the rapid cutting process of packaging bags, due to insufficient coding, some packaging bags may not be completely coated with the required marking information, or key information may be missing, directly violating the relevant regulations on product quality labeling and posing a significant risk to the product in the market circulation process. Utility Model Content
[0006] To address the aforementioned shortcomings, this invention proposes an integrated coding and cutting device for dairy processing workshops. The control modules can adjust the coding rhythm of the coding module in real time based on the cutting speed and frequency information fed back by the sensors, ensuring perfect matching between coding and cutting at any production speed. This allows the equipment to flexibly adapt to diverse production scenarios, guaranteeing the continuity and stability of the production process. It also solves the problem of asynchronous coding and cutting modules in traditional packaging bag production lines, which leads to under-coding, missed coding, or over-coding.
[0007] To achieve this objective, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:
[0008] An integrated coding and cutting device for dairy processing workshops includes a coding module, a cutting module, a sensor, and a control module;
[0009] The cutting module includes a housing, a power component, a transmission component, and blades. The housing has a through hole that extends through both the front and rear ends of the housing.

The through hole is the space for cutting the packaging bag. The movable end of the power component is connected to the transmission component. The movable end of the transmission component is fixedly connected to multiple blades. The cutting end of the blade extends movably into the through hole. The blade is used to cut the packaging bag located in the through hole.
[0014] The cutting device is provided with the coding module in front of the through hole, and the cutting module is used to code the packaging bag to be cut.

[0032] The following is combined Figures 1 to 3 This invention describes an integrated coding and cutting device for dairy processing workshops, according to an embodiment of the present invention.
[0033] An integrated coding and cutting device for dairy processing workshops includes a coding module 1, a cutting module 2, a sensor 3, and a control module;
[0034] The cutting module 2 includes a housing 21, a power component 22, a transmission component 23, and blades 24. The housing 21 has a through hole 20 that extends through both the front and rear ends of the housing 21. The through hole 20 is the space for cutting the packaging bag. The movable end of the power component 22 is connected to the transmission component 23. The movable end of the transmission component 23 is fixedly connected to a plurality of blades 24. The cutting end of the blades 24 extends movably into the through hole 20. The blades 24 are used to cut the packaging bag located in the through hole 20.
[0035] The cutting device is provided with the coding module 1 in front of the through hole 20, and the cutting module 2 is used to code the packaging bag to be cut.
[0036] The sensor 3 is installed on the housing 21 and is disposed opposite to the power assembly 22. The sensor 3 is used to detect the cutting speed and cutting frequency of the power assembly 22. The sensor 3 is electrically connected to the control module and the control module is electrically connected to the inkjet printing module 1.
[0037] When the packaging bag is conveyed to the through hole 20 by the packaging bag conveying device, the control module starts the cutting module 2. The power component 22 in the cutting module 2 starts operating first and drives the transmission component 23. The components in the transmission component 23 work together to drive multiple blades 24 to start rotating. As the cutting ends of the blades 24 extend into the through hole 20, as the blades 24 rotate, their cutting ends gradually approach the packaging bag to be cut inside the through hole 20, cutting the packaging bag into individual pieces that meet the specifications.
[0038] After the cutting action is completed, the power unit 22 stops power output in a timely manner under the command of the control module or according to the pre-set program logic. The blade 24 also gradually stops rotating and returns to the initial standby position, waiting for the next cutting command to arrive, thus completing the efficient cutting task of each packaging bag in a cycle.
[0039] The sensor 3 can detect the cutting speed and cutting frequency of the power assembly 22 and transmit the information to the control module. Based on this data, the control module precisely controls the start and stop timing of the inkjet printing module 1, so that the inkjet printing module 1 performs inkjet printing before cutting the packaging bags. This ensures that the inkjet printing operation is performed before each packaging bag is cut, so that the inkjet printing position accurately corresponds to each individual packaging bag. This greatly improves the accuracy and consistency of inkjet printing, effectively avoids the problem of misaligned inkjet printing position or mismatch with packaging bags, and improves the standardization and traceability of product identification.
[0040] Regardless of whether the cutting speed is increased or decreased, the control module can adjust the coding rhythm of the coding module 1 in a timely manner based on the cutting speed and frequency information fed back by the sensor 3. This ensures that coding and cutting can be perfectly matched at any production speed, enabling the equipment to flexibly cope with diverse production scenarios, ensuring the continuity and stability of the production process. It solves the problem of the coding module 1 and the cutting module 2 being out of sync in traditional packaging bag production lines, which leads to the coding module 1 printing too little, missing, or too much.
[0041] The transmission assembly 23 includes a plurality of transmission wheels 231 and a plurality of auxiliary wheels 232. The plurality of transmission wheels 231 and the plurality of auxiliary wheels 232 are rotatably mounted on the housing 21. The plurality of transmission wheels 231 and the plurality of auxiliary wheels 232 are arranged at intervals and are arranged around the outside of the through hole 20. The transmission wheels 231 and the auxiliary wheels 232 mesh with each other. The auxiliary wheels 232 are fixedly connected to the blade 24.
[0042] The movable end of the power component 22 is connected to one of the oppositely arranged transmission wheels 231. The power component 22 is used to drive the transmission wheel 231 to rotate, and the auxiliary wheel 232 is used to drive the blade 24 to rotate.
[0043] Multiple drive wheels 231 and auxiliary wheels 232 are arranged at intervals and encircled outside the through hole 20, forming a ring-shaped power transmission network. When the power component 22 drives one of the drive wheels 231 to rotate, the drive wheel 231 and the auxiliary wheel 232 mesh with each other, and the mechanical power can be evenly distributed to each blade 24. This ensures that each blade 24 receives a stable and consistent power supply during the cutting process, avoiding problems such as uneven cutting effect of individual blades 24 due to uneven power, such as uneven cuts or inconsistent depths, thereby improving the stability and reliability of the overall cutting quality.
[0044] Due to the meshing structure of the transmission wheel 231 and the auxiliary wheel 232, the rotation of each blade 24 can be precisely synchronized. With the coordinated action of the control module, the rotation angle, speed, and start / stop time of each blade 24 can be precisely controlled.
[0045] When it is necessary to cut packaging bags of a specific size or shape, it can ensure that all blades 24 cut into and out of the packaging bag at the same time, achieving neat and precise cutting action, effectively avoiding cutting deviations or defective products caused by inconsistent blade movements, and improving the cutting accuracy and consistency of the product.
[0046] Moreover, the control module can accurately determine whether the cutting blade 24 has completed the cutting work by detecting the operation information of the power component 22 by the sensor 3, and then control the printing time and printing frequency of the inkjet module 1 to ensure a perfect match between the printing process and the cutting process. This enables the equipment to flexibly cope with diverse production scenarios and ensure the continuity and stability of the production process.
[0047] The power assembly 22 includes a motor 221, a first pulley 222, a belt 223, and a second pulley. The movable end of the motor 221 is fixedly fitted with the first pulley 222. A transmission wheel 231, which is opposite to the first pulley 222, is coaxially connected to the second pulley. The belt 223 is movably fitted between the first pulley 222 and the second pulley.
[0048] When motor 221 is started, it drives the first pulley 222 to rotate. Since belt 223 is fitted onto the first pulley 222 and the second pulley, the first pulley 222 can drive belt 223 and the second pulley to rotate. The second pulley is coaxially arranged with one of the transmission pulleys 231, so that the second pulley can drive the corresponding transmission pulley 231 to rotate. Since the transmission pulley 231 meshes with the auxiliary pulley 232, and multiple transmission pulleys 231 and multiple auxiliary pulleys 232 are arranged at intervals, the power of motor 221 is transmitted to transmission assembly 23, thereby driving blade 24 to perform cutting operations.
[0049] A protrusion is fixedly provided on the side wall of the movable end of the motor 221. The sensor 3 is disposed opposite to the movable end of the motor 221 and is used to detect the passage of the protrusion.
[0050] The sensor 3 can detect the passage of the protrusion on the side wall of the moving end of the motor 221 and transmit the signal to the control module. The control module can accurately calculate the rotational speed of the motor 221. Since the position and trajectory of the protrusion are fixed and can be accurately measured, the control module can accurately estimate the rotational speed of the motor 221 based on the time interval and number of times the protrusion passes.
[0051] By monitoring the speed of motor 221 in real time, the control module can precisely control the coding frequency of coding module 1, ensuring a perfect match between coding and cutting speeds. This allows each packaging bag to be accurately coded at the same time as it is being cut or at a specific moment, avoiding errors in coding position or missing codes. This improves the accuracy of product identification and production consistency, and also makes full use of the equipment's running time, reducing unnecessary waiting and delays. This further enhances the overall production efficiency of the equipment, enabling it to process more packaging bag products per unit of time.
[0052] A cutter head mounting base 241 is fixedly installed on the side of the auxiliary wheel 232 away from the second pulley. The blade 24 is provided with an adjustment hole 242. The blade 24 is fixedly connected to the cutter head mounting base 241 by screws 243. The length direction of the adjustment hole 242 is consistent with the length direction of the blade 24.
[0053] However, the fixed connection between the screw 243 and the cutter head mounting base 241 provides sufficient stability and reliability. During equipment operation, especially during high-speed cutting, the blade 24 is subjected to significant impact and vibration forces. This fixed connection ensures that the blade 24 is securely mounted on the cutter head mounting base 241, preventing loosening, displacement, or detachment due to external forces. This guarantees the accuracy and consistency of the cutting action, reduces cutting quality problems caused by unstable blade 24 mounting, such as uneven cuts and burrs, and improves product quality stability.
[0054] The blade 24 is fixedly connected to the cutter head mounting base 241 by screws 243. When the blade 24 is worn or damaged due to long-term use and needs to be replaced, the maintenance personnel can easily remove the old blade 24 from the cutter head mounting base 241 and quickly install the new blade 24 by simply unscrewing the screws 243 with the appropriate tools.
[0055] In addition, workers can carefully move the blade 24 along the direction of the adjustment hole 242 according to the required thickness of the packaging bag, thereby changing the length of the blade 24 extending out of the through hole 20. If the packaging bag is thicker, the blade 24 is pulled outwards appropriately to increase its length extending out of the through hole 20. This allows for a greater cutting depth when the blade 24 rotates and cuts, ensuring that thicker materials are completely cut. Conversely, if the packaging bag is thinner, the blade 24 is pushed back inwards a certain distance to reduce the extension and avoid damaging the packaging bag or affecting the cutting quality due to excessive cutting.
[0056] The transmission wheel 231 and the plurality of auxiliary wheels 232 are all located on the same horizontal plane, and the plurality of blades 24 are all located on the same horizontal plane.
[0057] The transmission wheel 231 and multiple auxiliary wheels 232 are located on the same horizontal plane, which allows the power to be smoothly and evenly distributed to each blade 24 during transmission. Since each blade 24 is also on the same horizontal plane, the magnitude and direction of the driving force they experience during the cutting operation are basically the same, thus ensuring that the cutting force applied by each blade 24 to the packaging bag is uniform and stable. This effectively avoids problems such as uneven cuts, burrs, or incomplete cuts caused by uneven cutting forces, thereby improving the cutting accuracy and consistency of product packaging.
[0058] The length of the blade 24 is less than the center-to-center distance between two adjacent transmission wheels 231.
[0059] The length of the blade 24 is less than the center distance between two adjacent drive wheels 231, ensuring that both ends of the blade 24 remain within the stable support structure formed by the drive wheels 231 and the auxiliary wheel 232 during the rotary cutting process. This effectively avoids uneven stress and vibration problems caused by the cantilever beam structure due to the blade 24 being too long. During cutting, the blade 24 can cut into the packaging bag with a more stable posture, reducing quality defects such as uneven cuts and burrs caused by blade vibration or shaking, thereby improving cutting accuracy and the consistency of product packaging quality.
[0060] In addition, the length of the blade 24 is limited in this solution, which ensures that each blade 24 has an independent and non-interfering movement space. This can effectively avoid the problem of collision and friction between two adjacent blades 24, which would cause the blades 24 to wear out, deform or even be damaged quickly.
[0061] The technical principles of this utility model have been described above with reference to specific embodiments. These descriptions are merely for explaining the principles of this utility model and should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of this utility model in any way. Based on this explanation, those skilled in the art can readily conceive of other specific embodiments of this utility model without any inventive effort, and these embodiments will all fall within the scope of protection of this utility model.
