DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0023] Embodiment one

[0024] As Figures 1-4 shown, the energy bar raw material compaction device provided by the embodiment comprises a support seat 1, a rotating disc 2, a compaction mechanism and a pushing mechanism.

[0025] The support seat 1 is provided with a plurality of pressing holes 201, and the plurality of pressing holes 201 are arranged in an annular array. In this way, at least three workstations, i.e., a feeding station, a pressing station and a discharging station, are provided on the device. The bottom end of the support seat 1 is provided with a rack 4, and the rack 4 is provided with a gantry 5.

[0026] The rotating disc 2 is provided with a plurality of pressing holes 201, and the rotating disc 2 is rotatably installed on the support seat 1. The support seat 1 is provided with a power assembly for driving the rotating disc 2 to rotate. The power assembly comprises a servo motor 121, a first gear 122 and a gear ring 123. The servo motor 121 is installed on the side of the support seat 1. The first gear 122 is installed on the output shaft of the servo motor 121. The gear ring 123 is arranged on the outer periphery of the rotating disc 2 and is in meshing connection with the first gear 122.

[0027] The compaction mechanism comprises a pressing plate 14, a connecting column 11, a hydraulic cylinder 9 and a lifting frame 8. The hydraulic cylinder 9 is installed on the gantry 5. The lifting frame 8 is connected with the output shaft of the hydraulic cylinder 9. The pressing plate 14 is connected with the lifting frame 8 through the connecting column 11.

[0028] The pushing mechanism comprises a pushing plate 15, a second gear 16, a third gear 17, a first rack 18, a second rack 19 and a mounting shaft 20. The pushing plate 15 is arranged above the material falling hole 101. The gantry 5 is provided with a mounting seat 10. The second gear 16 and the third gear 17 are rotatably installed on the mounting seat 10 through the mounting shaft 20. The diameter of the second gear 16 is greater than that of the third gear 17. The first rack 18 and the second rack 19 are vertically slidably installed on the mounting seat 10. The first rack 18 and the second rack 19 are connected with the pushing plate 15 and the lifting frame 8, respectively.

[0029] In the initial state, the lower end surface of the pressing plate 14 and the lower end surface of the pushing plate 15 are flush with the upper end surface of the rotating disc 2. Through the above structure, the excess material on the pressing plate 14 and the pushing plate 15 can be scraped off during the rotation of the rotating disc 2.

[0030] An angle sensor is installed on the rotating disc 2. The angle sensor can detect the rotation angle of the rotating disc 2 and feed back the signal to the controller. When the rotating disc 2 rotates to the set angle position, the power assembly is controlled by the controller to stop driving work.

[0031] Specifically, the raw material for producing energy bars is placed inside the pressing hole 201, filling it completely. A power unit drives the turntable 2 to rotate. When the raw material moves to the pressure plate 14, the hydraulic cylinder 9 is activated to drive the pressure plate 14 downwards, thus compacting the raw material inside the pressing hole 201. The pressure plate 14 is then reset, and the turntable 2 continues to rotate. When the compacted raw material moves to below the pusher plate 15, the hydraulic cylinder 9 is activated again to drive the pusher plate 15. Since the lifting frame 8 does not directly drive the pusher plate 15, it first drives the second rack 19 downwards. During this movement, the second rack 19 drives the third gear 17 to rotate. Because the third gear 17 and the... The two gears 16 are mounted on the same mounting shaft 20, so that the third gear 17 drives the second gear 16 to rotate synchronously during rotation. The rotation of the second gear 16 drives the first rack 18 to move downward. Since the path of the second gear 16 is longer than the path of the third gear 17, the short-distance movement of the second rack 19 can be converted into a long-distance movement of the first rack 18 (because there is a gap between the raw material and the pusher plate 15 after compaction. If the above structure is not set, the pusher plate 15 cannot push the raw material out smoothly when it is driven to move synchronously with the pressure plate). After the pusher plate 15 is driven to move downward, the pusher plate 15 pushes the compacted raw material out from the inside of the pressure hole 201 and then drops through the discharge hole 101, thereby realizing the function of automatic unloading.

[0032] Example 2

[0033] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the energy bar raw material compaction device proposed in this embodiment, compared with the first embodiment, further includes a conveyor belt device 3, which is located below the material drop hole 101; the conveyor belt device 3 is used to receive the compacted raw material and can transport the raw material to the next station; furthermore, a sponge or soft pad is provided on the surface of the conveyor belt of the conveyor belt device 3, which can play a buffering role to reduce the probability of the raw material breaking after falling.

[0034] Example 3

[0035] like Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, this embodiment proposes an energy bar raw material compaction device. Compared with the first embodiment, in this embodiment, a material box 6 is provided above the turntable 2, and a connecting frame 13 is connected between the material box 6 and the support base 1. A funnel 7 is provided at the upper end of the material box 6. The material box 6 is used to store raw materials. When the pressing hole 201 moves to the lower position of the material box 6, the raw materials inside the material box 6 automatically fall into the inner side of the pressing hole 201. Furthermore, in order to prevent the raw materials from overflowing through the gap between the material box 6 and the turntable 2, a sealing strip can be installed at the bottom of the material box 6 to improve the sealing between the bottom of the material box 6 and the turntable 2.

[0036] Example 4

[0037] like Figure 3 As shown in the figure, the energy bar raw material compaction device proposed in this embodiment has an improvement over the first embodiment. In this embodiment, a support rod 21 is slidably arranged on the support base 1 along its radial direction. The support rod 21 passes through the inner and outer sides of the pressing hole 201. An electric telescopic rod for driving the support rod 21 to move is installed on the support base 1. In order to prevent the raw material from breaking before the compacted raw material completely covers the dropping hole 101, a support rod 21 is installed on the support base 1. The support rod 21 can be composed of multiple rods to form a stable support for the raw material. When the raw material completely covers the dropping hole 101, the electric telescopic rod drives the support rod 21 to be quickly pulled out from the inner side of the dropping hole 101, at which time the raw material falls.

[0038] The embodiments of the present invention have been described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the present invention is not limited thereto. Various changes can be made within the scope of knowledge possessed by those skilled in the art without departing from the spirit of the present invention.
