Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of pet food technology, specifically a pet food filling and compaction device. Background Technology

[0002] Pet food is a high-end animal food specifically designed for pets and small animals, falling between human food and traditional livestock feed. Its main function is to provide various pets with the most basic nutrients needed for life, growth, development, and health. It has advantages such as comprehensive nutrition, high digestibility and absorption rate, scientific formula, quality standards, convenient feeding and use, and the ability to prevent certain diseases.

[0003] Currently, pet food can be categorized into dry pet food, semi-dry pet food, and liquid pet food, such as fish food, dog food, cat food, canned pet food, meat sauce, and nutritional porridge. When producing some dry granular pet food, filling is required, and compaction is a common process. However, during compaction, the compaction disc cannot accommodate bottles of different diameters, necessitating replacement, which is inconvenient. Furthermore, if the can is not properly secured during compaction, it can easily shift between the can and the compaction disc, affecting filling accuracy and, in severe cases, even causing the can to tip over, impacting production efficiency and product quality. Utility Model Content

[0011] Preferably, the inner wall of the connecting frame is provided with a fixing rod, and the other end of the fixing rod is fixed to the outer side of the connecting pipe.

[0012] Preferably, both sets of the housing are equipped with mounting plates.

[0013] Preferably, each of the four corners of the bottom of the box is fixed with a support column, and the lower end of the support column is fixed with a support base.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0015] This utility model allows for convenient fixation of the first cylinder by setting a fixing frame. The first cylinder facilitates the movement of the connecting rod, which in turn facilitates the movement of the mounting plate and the compaction plate.

The tank is connected to the mounting plate 8, which facilitates the installation of the compaction plate 9. Two sets of second cylinders 10 are fixed to the inner wall of the housing 1. The piston rod of the second cylinder 10 is fixed to a connecting plate 11. Multiple sets of fixing pipes 12 are fixed to one side of the connecting plate 11. The second cylinders 10 can easily move the connecting plate 11 and fix the fixing pipes 12. The inner wall of the fixing pipes 12 is fixed to a second spring 13. The other end of the second spring 13 is fixed to a fixing post 14. The other end of the fixing post 14 is fixed to a clamping frame 15 for clamping the tank. The fixing pipes 12 and the fixing post 14 are used to fix the fixing pipes 14 and the clamping frame 15, respectively, to facilitate the clamping of the tank.

[0023] A mounting bracket 16 is installed on the top of the housing 1, and one side of the mounting bracket 16 is fixed to the inner wall of the fixing frame 3; by setting the mounting bracket 16, the stability of the fixing frame 3 can be easily improved.

[0024] Two sets of limiting frames 17 are fixed to the top of the fixed frame 3, and one side of the limiting frame 17 is fixed to one side of the first cylinder 4; by setting the limiting frame 17, the stability of the first cylinder 4 can be easily improved.

[0025] Two sets of connecting blocks 18 are fixed to the inner wall of the fixing frame 3, and a connecting frame 19 is installed on one side of the connecting block 18. A fixing rod 20 is provided on the inner wall of the connecting frame 19, and the other end of the fixing rod 20 is fixed to the outer side of the connecting pipe 6. By setting the connecting block 18, the connecting frame 19 can be installed easily. By setting the connecting frame 19, the fixing rod 20 can be slid easily.

[0028] Working Principle: First, the can is properly placed on conveyor belt 2, then conveyor belt 2 is started to smoothly transport the can to the predetermined operating position. Next, the second cylinder 10 is activated, which drives the connecting plate 11 to produce linear displacement. The movement of the connecting plate 11 further pulls the fixing tube 12, the second spring 13, the fixing column 14, and the clamping frame 15 forward as a whole until the clamping frame 15 tightly clamps the can, ensuring its stability in subsequent steps. After the clamping action is completed, the first cylinder 4 is activated. The piston rod of the first cylinder 4 extends, pushing the connecting rod 5 to move along the predetermined trajectory. The displacement of the connecting rod 5 also drives the mounting plate 8 and its compaction plate 9 forward together. As the compaction plate 9 slowly approaches and contacts the pet food in the can, it effectively compacts the food using its own weight or additional pressure, ensuring that the pet food is tightly filled in the can, laying a good foundation for subsequent sealing work.
