Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of frozen block unloading devices, and in particular to an intelligent automatic frozen block unloading device. Background Technology
[0002] Freeze-dried foods are rapidly frozen and dehydrated in a vacuum, preserving their original color, aroma, flavor, nutritional components, and appearance. They also have excellent rehydration properties and contain no additives, making them ideal natural and hygienic foods. The production and processing of freeze-dried foods require packaging and transportation, which necessitates repeated unloading during these processes.
[0003] A novel freeze-dried food unloading rack (authorization announcement number: CN207973241U) has some shortcomings in its use: when freeze-dried food accumulates on the inclined support plate without sliding down, the handle needs to be manually pressed. This causes the connecting block to drive the spring to move up and down, thereby causing the inclined support plate to vibrate and the freeze-dried food to slide, completing the unloading process. This manual method of pressing the handle increases the workload of workers, is very laborious, and has a low level of automation. Therefore, we propose an intelligent automatic unloading device for frozen blocks to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content
[0004] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides an intelligent automatic unloading device for frozen blocks, which solves the aforementioned problems.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:
[0006] An intelligent automatic unloading device for frozen blocks includes an unloading rack with an inlet and an outlet. An opening is formed inside the unloading rack, and a rotating rod is rotatably mounted on the inner wall of one end of the opening. An unloading plate is fixedly mounted on the rotating rod, and a baffle is fixedly mounted on one side of the unloading plate. A circular opening is formed on one side wall of the unloading rack, and an infrared sensor is fixedly mounted inside the circular opening. A support plate is fixedly mounted on the bottom side of the unloading rack, and a controller is provided on the top side of the support plate. A sealing and unloading drive mechanism is provided between the support plate and the baffle.
[0007] Preferably, the top side of the unloading plate is inclined, and the inclination direction of the top side of the unloading plate is inclined to the right and downward; since the unloading plate is inclined to the right and downward, it is convenient for the freeze-dried food to be transferred to the receiving area via the unloading plate and unloading frame.
[0008] Preferably, the baffle is arranged in an arc shape and is adapted to the outlet; when the baffle on the unloading plate seals the outlet, it achieves the purpose of intermittent unloading, better controls the unloading speed of freeze-dried food, and prevents the freeze-dried food from being blocked in the receiving area due to excessive unloading speed.
[0009] Preferably, the sealing and unloading drive mechanism includes a first hinge seat, a hydraulic rod, and a second hinge seat. The first hinge seat is fixedly installed on the bottom side of the baffle, and the second hinge seat is fixedly installed on the top side of the support plate. The hydraulic rod is hingedly installed on the second hinge seat, and the output end of the hydraulic rod is hingedly installed on the first hinge seat. By activating the hydraulic rod, the baffle is pushed upward, thereby causing the unloading plate to deflect around the rotating rod at a certain angle, so that the freeze-dried food accumulated on the unloading plate continues to be unloaded.
[0010] Preferably, the controller is electrically connected to the infrared sensor and the hydraulic rod. The infrared sensor emits infrared light to monitor whether freeze-dried food is passing by. When the infrared sensor does not detect any freeze-dried food passing by for a certain period of time, the infrared sensor transmits a signal to the controller, which then generates a signal and activates the hydraulic rod.
[0011] Preferably, a discharge frame is fixedly installed on one side of the discharge end of the discharge rack, and the bottom inner wall of the discharge frame is inclined downward; the discharge frame guides the freeze-dried food being discharged.
[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0013] This intelligent automatic frozen block unloading device uses an infrared sensor installed on the inner wall of one side of the unloading rack's discharge end. The sensor emits infrared rays towards the inner wall of the other side of the discharge end, monitoring for the presence of freeze-dried food. If no freeze-dried food is detected for a certain period, the sensor transmits a signal to the controller. The controller then activates a hydraulic rod, pushing a baffle upwards. This causes the unloading plate to deflect around a rotating rod at a certain angle, allowing the accumulated freeze-dried food to continue unloading. This eliminates the need for manual operation, saving considerable effort and demonstrating a high degree of automation. Simultaneously, the baffle on the unloading plate seals the outlet, enabling intermittent unloading and better controlling the unloading speed of the freeze-dried food, preventing blockages in the receiving area due to excessively fast unloading.

[0019] 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.
[0020] Reference Figure 1-4 An intelligent automatic unloading device for frozen blocks includes an unloading rack 1, with an inlet 2 and an outlet 15 respectively. The unloading rack 1 has a plate opening 3. A rotating rod 4 is rotatably installed on the inner wall of one end of the plate opening 3. An unloading plate 5 is fixedly installed on the rotating rod 4. A baffle 6 is fixedly installed on one side of the unloading plate 5. A circular opening 7 is opened on one side wall of the unloading rack 1. An infrared sensor 8 is fixedly installed in the circular opening 7. A support plate 9 is fixedly installed on the bottom side of the unloading rack 1. A controller 10 is provided on the top side of the support plate 9. A sealing and unloading drive mechanism is provided between the support plate 9 and the baffle 6.
[0021] Furthermore, the top side of the unloading plate 5 is inclined, and the direction of the inclination of the top side of the unloading plate 5 is inclined to the right and downward. Since the unloading plate 5 is inclined to the right and downward, it is convenient for the freeze-dried food to be transferred to the receiving area through the unloading plate 5 and the unloading frame 14.
[0022] Furthermore, the baffle 6 is arranged in an arc shape and is adapted to the outlet 15. When the baffle 6 on the unloading plate 5 seals the outlet 15, it achieves the purpose of intermittent unloading, better controls the unloading speed of freeze-dried food, and prevents the freeze-dried food from being blocked in the receiving area due to excessive unloading speed.
[0023] Specifically, the sealing and unloading drive mechanism includes a first hinge seat 11, a hydraulic rod 12, and a second hinge seat 13. The first hinge seat 11 is fixedly installed on the bottom side of the baffle 6, and the second hinge seat 13 is fixedly installed on the top side of the support plate 9. The hydraulic rod 12 is hingedly installed on the second hinge seat 13, and the output end of the hydraulic rod 12 is hingedly installed on the first hinge seat 11. By activating the hydraulic rod 13, the baffle 6 is pushed upward, thereby causing the unloading plate 5 to deflect around the rotating rod 4 at a certain angle, so that the freeze-dried food accumulated on the unloading plate 5 continues to be unloaded.
[0024] Specifically, the controller 10 is electrically connected to the infrared sensor 8 and the hydraulic rod 13. The infrared sensor 8 emits infrared light to monitor whether freeze-dried food has passed by. When the infrared sensor 8 does not detect any freeze-dried food passing by for a certain period of time, the infrared sensor 8 transmits a signal to the controller 10, which then generates a signal and activates the hydraulic rod 13.
[0025] Furthermore, a discharge frame 14 is fixedly installed on one side of the discharge end of the discharge rack 1, and the bottom inner wall of the discharge frame 14 is inclined downward; the freeze-dried food is guided by the discharge frame 14.
[0026] In use: When unloading freeze-dried food, the freeze-dried food slides down through the inlet 2 and outlet 15 onto the unloading plate 5 under the action of gravity. Since the unloading plate 5 is tilted to the right and downward, the freeze-dried food is transferred to the receiving area via the unloading frame 14. At the same time, the infrared sensor 8 emits infrared rays towards the inner wall of the discharge end of the unloading rack 1, thereby detecting that freeze-dried food has been successfully unloaded. If the infrared sensor 8 does not detect any freeze-dried food passing by for a certain period of time, the infrared sensor 8 transmits a signal to... The controller 10 generates a stacking and cleaning signal to the hydraulic rod 13. By activating the hydraulic rod 13, the baffle 6 is pushed upward, which causes the unloading plate 5 to deflect around the rotating rod 4 at a certain angle. This allows the freeze-dried food accumulated on the unloading plate 5 to continue to be unloaded. During the deflection of the unloading plate 5, the baffle 6 on the unloading plate 5 seals the outlet 15, achieving the purpose of intermittent unloading. This better controls the unloading speed of the freeze-dried food and prevents the receiving area from becoming blocked due to excessive unloading speed.
[0027] In summary, the method for unloading freeze-dried food in this case involves installing an infrared sensor 8 on one inner wall of the discharge end of the unloading rack 1. The infrared sensor 8 emits infrared rays to the other inner wall of the discharge end of the unloading rack 1, monitoring whether freeze-dried food is passing by. If the infrared sensor 8 does not detect any freeze-dried food passing by for a certain period of time, it transmits a signal to the controller 10. The controller 10 then activates the hydraulic rod 13, pushing the baffle 6 upward, which in turn causes the unloading plate 5 to deflect around the rotating rod 4 at a certain angle. This allows the freeze-dried food accumulated on the unloading plate 5 to continue unloading, eliminating the need for manual operation, saving considerable effort, and demonstrating a high degree of automation. At the same time, the baffle 6 on the unloading plate 5 seals the outlet 15, achieving intermittent unloading and better controlling the unloading speed of the freeze-dried food, preventing blockage in the receiving area due to excessive unloading speed.
