Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of fork and spoon packaging equipment, and in particular to an automatic placement device for fork and spoon packaging. Background Technology

[0002] When restaurants and bakeries offer takeout, pre-packaged cutlery is required. During the production process, the packaging machine automatically packages the cutlery, but a conveyor system is needed to transport the cutlery to a specific location and place it properly.

[0003] Most companies manually place the cutlery into specific positions on the packaging machine and arrange them neatly for easy packaging. However, the packaging machine is inefficient because it needs to wait, and human error can lead to uneven packaging or even damage to the cutlery. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide an automatic placement device for packaging forks and spoons, in order to solve the problem that most companies currently rely on manual placement of knives and forks in specific positions on the packaging machine to ensure neatness and facilitate packaging. However, the packaging machine is slow to operate due to waiting time, resulting in low packaging efficiency. Furthermore, human error may lead to uneven packaging or even damage to the knives and forks.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: an automatic placement device for packaging forks and spoons, comprising a cover plate, a sheet metal funnel on the inner side of the cover plate, and a fixing plate one and a fixing plate two fixedly connected to the bottom of the cover plate by screws, the sides of the fixing plate one and the fixing plate two fixedly connected by positioning pins to inclined connecting plates, an assembly plate on the inner side of the inclined connecting plate, a cylinder located outside the inclined connecting plate in the middle of the side of the assembly plate, a connecting clip fixedly connected to the top of the cylinder, and a pneumatic connector on the top of the cylinder, a guide component and a limiting component located on the side of the cylinder respectively, and a baffle fixedly connected to the bottom of the inclined connecting plate by locking bolts.

[0006] In a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the inclined connecting plate is located below the sheet metal funnel.

[0007] As a preferred technical solution of this utility model, a U-shaped groove is provided in the top center of the assembly plate, and the inner side of the U-shaped groove is movably connected to the connecting clip at the top of the cylinder.

[0008] As a preferred technical solution of this utility model, the guide assembly includes a guide sleeve, a guide post and a positioning bolt. The guide sleeve is fixedly connected to the side of the guide post, which is inserted into the inclined connecting plate. The top of the guide post is threadedly connected to the positioning bolt located inside the assembly plate.

[0009] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the limiting component includes a fixing ring, a guide rod, a second positioning bolt, a resin washer, and a nut. The side of the fixing ring is fixedly connected to a guide rod inserted into the side of the inclined connecting plate. The top of the guide rod is threadedly connected to a second positioning bolt located inside the assembly plate. The top of the fixing ring is provided with a nut. A sheet metal funnel is provided in the middle of the inner side of the plate, and a cover plate is fixedly connected to a first fixing plate and a second fixing plate by screws. The inner sides of the first fixing plate and the second fixing plate are fitted with an inclined connecting plate located below the sheet metal funnel via positioning pins. The sides of the inclined connecting plate are respectively provided with a cylinder, a guide assembly, and a limiting component. When the fork and spoon are not placed in the sheet metal funnel, the cylinder vents and the piston extends, and the baffle is closed. When a set of forks and spoons are placed in the sheet metal funnel, due to the four-sided sloping structure of the sheet metal funnel, the forks and spoons are naturally positioned at the bottom of the sheet metal funnel. When the switch is pressed, the cylinder vents, the piston retracts rapidly, and the guide post in the guide assembly slides and guides the forks and spoons, causing them to fall into the conveyor unit slot and then be conveyed to the packaging machine for packaging. After the forks and spoons fall, the cylinder vents, the piston extends, the baffle closes, and the guide rod in the limit assembly combines with the assembly plate to limit the opening and closing distance, preventing noise or damage to parts caused by collisions. The machine waits for the next fork and spoon to be placed, and the cycle continues.

[0010] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the side of the assembly plate is provided with a through groove, and the inner side of the through groove is respectively engaged with the side of the guide rod and the guide post.

[0011] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the inner side of the fixing ring is provided with a resin washer located on the outer side of the guide rod.

[0012] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the top of the cover plate is provided with a mounting hole, and the inner side of the mounting hole is threadedly connected to the side of the screw.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0014] This utility model features a sheet metal funnel located in the center of the inner side of a cover plate. The cover plate is fixedly connected to two fixing plates (one and two) by screws. An inclined connecting plate located below the sheet metal funnel is mounted on the inner side of the fixing plates via positioning pins. The sides of the inclined connecting plate are equipped with a cylinder, a guide assembly, and a limiting assembly. When the fork / spoon is not placed in the sheet metal funnel, the cylinder is vented and the piston extends, closing the baffle. When a set of forks / spoons is placed in the sheet metal funnel, due to the four-sided sloping structure of the funnel, the forks / spoons naturally align at the bottom. Pressing the switch vents the cylinder, causing the piston to retract rapidly. The guide post in the guide assembly slides and guides the forks / spoons, causing them to fall into the conveyor unit slot and be transported to the packaging machine for packaging. After the forks / spoons fall, the cylinder vents again, the piston extends, the baffle closes, and the guide rod in the limiting assembly engages with the assembly plate to limit the opening and closing distance, preventing collisions that could cause noise or damage to parts. The process continues until the next fork / spoon is placed in, repeating the cycle. Attached Figure Description
