Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to a filling machine, and more particularly to an automatic filling machine for jelly with a bursting skin. Background Technology

[0002] Bursting jelly is typically spherical, about the size of a ping-pong ball, and comes in a variety of colors, including purple, yellow, green, and pink, each corresponding to a different fruit flavor. It has a thin, elastic outer layer encasing the jelly inside. To eat it, you usually pierce the outer layer with a toothpick or bite it open with your teeth, allowing the jelly juice and jelly to burst into your mouth for a delightful, juicy experience. Currently, the production of bursting jelly involves manually filling silicone bags with the jelly and securing them with rubber bands, a very inefficient method that cannot be industrialized. Utility Model Content

[0003] To address the shortcomings of the existing technology, this utility model provides an automatic filling machine for jelly with a bursting skin.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is: an automatic jelly filling machine, comprising a frame and a tie-filling structure, a bag conveying structure, a material hopper, a turntable, and a control box mounted on the frame; the tie-filling structure, the bag conveying structure, and the material hopper are arranged around the turntable. The material hopper is connected to the tie-filling structure. The turntable has holes.

[0005] Preferably, a strap feeding device is provided next to the strap filling structure to deliver straps to the strap filling structure.

[0006] Preferably, the strap feeding device is a vibrating plate.

[0007] Preferably, the bag conveying structure includes a bag vibrating plate and an insert rod, wherein the bag vibrating plate is located near a hole on the turntable, and the insert rod is positioned above the hole.

[0008] Preferably, the cable tie filling structure includes a cable tie machine, a filling rod, and a clamping and stretching device. The filling rod is positioned above the hole and connected to the material container; the clamping and stretching device is positioned below the hole, and the cable tie machine is positioned above the clamping and stretching device.

[0009] Preferably, the clamping and stretching device includes a clamping arm, a clamping cylinder, and a pull-down cylinder. The clamping cylinder drives the clamping arm to perform a lateral clamping movement, and the pull-down cylinder is located at the lower end of the clamping cylinder to drive the clamping arm and the clamping cylinder to perform an up-and-down movement.

[0010] Preferably, a cylinder is connected next to the cable tie machine, and the cylinder drives the cable tie machine to reciprocate.

[0011] Preferably, a primary filling device is also provided around the turntable, and the primary filling device is connected to the material bucket.

[0012] Preferably, the lower end of the cable tie filling structure is provided with a discharge port.

[0013] Preferably, the frame is equipped with a control box, which controls the operation of the cable tie filling structure, the bag conveying structure, the material bucket, and the turntable.

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

[0015] 1. Achieve full-process automation and significantly reduce reliance on manual labor.

[0016] By integrating the tie-up filling structure, bag conveying structure, material bucket, turntable and control box into a closed-loop automated process of "bag supply - positioning - filling - tie-up - discharge".

[0017] 2. Optimize production efficiency and enhance continuous operation capability.

[0018] The circular layout shortens the process interval: the turntable is surrounded by a tie-filling structure, a bag conveying structure, and a primary filling device. The holes on the turntable can simultaneously carry multiple bags to complete the "bag feeding - primary filling - tie-filling - discharge" process in sequence, forming a continuous circular production line.

Detailed Implementation

[0027] 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.

[0028] like Figures 1-7 The image shows an automatic jelly filling machine, comprising a frame 2 and a tie-filling structure 1, a bag conveying structure 3, a material tank 4, a turntable 6, and a control box 7, all mounted on the frame 2. The tie-filling structure 1, the bag conveying structure 3, and the material tank 4 are arranged around the turntable 6. The material tank 4 is connected to the tie-filling structure 1. The turntable 6 has holes. A strap feeding device 19 is provided next to the tie-filling structure 1 to feed straps to it. The bag conveying structure 3 includes a bag vibrating plate 8 and an insertion rod 9. The bag vibrating plate 8 is close to the holes on the turntable 6, conveying the bags 7 to the holes on the turntable 6, and then inserting the bags 7 into the holes via the insertion rod 9. The tie-filling structure 1 includes a tie-filling machine 10, a filling rod 12, and a clamping and stretching device 11. The filling rod 12 is positioned above the hole and connected to the material bucket 4; the clamping and stretching device 11 is positioned below the hole, and the cable tie machine 10 is positioned above the clamping and stretching device 11. The clamping and stretching device 11 includes a clamping arm 14, a clamping cylinder 15, and a pull-down cylinder 16. The clamping cylinder 15 drives the clamping arm 14 to perform a lateral clamping movement, and the pull-down cylinder 16 is positioned at the lower end of the clamping cylinder 15, driving the clamping arm 14 and the clamping cylinder 15 to perform an up-and-down movement. A cylinder 18 is connected next to the cable tie machine 10, and the cylinder 18 drives the cable tie machine 10 to reciprocate. A primary filling device 5 is also provided around the turntable 6, and the primary filling device 5 is connected to the material bucket 6. The lower end of the cable tie filling structure 1 is provided with a discharge port 13. A control box 7 is provided on the frame 2, and the control box 7 controls the operation of the cable tie filling structure 1, the bag conveying structure 3, the material bucket 5, and the turntable 6.

[0029] Working Process: The bags used for filling the jelly are made of silicone. They are automatically conveyed to the holes by a vibrating disc (the structure and principle of which are not detailed here). The bags are inserted into the holes via an insert rod. The upper edge of the bag has a raised edge to hold it in place. The turntable rotates clockwise, conveying the bags to the primary filling device for the first filling. A small amount of jelly is injected during the first filling to expel air from the bag. When the bag rotates to the lower end of the filling rod, the rod moves downwards, inserts into the hole, and presses the bag tightly for the second filling. After filling, the clamping cylinder activates the clamping arm to hold the bag in place, and the pull-down cylinder stretches the upper end of the bag. A cable tie ties the bag at the upper end, completing the "bursting jelly" process. The clamping arm then releases, and the bursting jelly falls into the discharge port. This invention can also eliminate the need for a primary filling device, and directly perform two fillings by the up-and-down movement of the filling rod. The first filling is for venting, and the second filling is completed.

[0030] The cable tie machine used in this invention was purchased from Dongguan Wolong Intelligent Equipment Co., Ltd., and it uses the Chinese patent CN222474565U stator automatic cable tie machine, which can quickly tie the cable ties delivered by the cable tie feeding device onto the bag body.
