Detailed Implementation

[0023] 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.

[0024] Example:

[0025] Please see Figures 1 to 5 This utility model provides a technical solution:

[0026] A packaging device for biodegradable bamboo toothpicks includes a workbench 1, a feeding component 2, and a collecting component 3. The workbench 1 is equipped with the feeding component 2 and the collecting component 3. The feeding component 2 is used to deliver the produced toothpicks to the collecting component 3, and the collecting component 3 collects the toothpicks.

[0027] The feeding component 2 includes a mounting frame 21, a receiving component 22, and a sealing component 23. The mounting frame 21 is located on the workbench 1. The receiving component 22 is rotatably mounted on the mounting frame 21. The receiving component 22 has two discharge ends. When the receiving component 22 rotates, it collects the produced toothpicks from the inlet. The sealing component 23, which has the same number of discharge ends as the receiving component 22, is movably mounted on the receiving component 22. The end of the sealing component 23 contacts the outlet end of the receiving component 22. The sealing component 23 is used to seal the outlet end of the receiving component 22. When the outlet end of the receiving component 22 is directly above the packaging toothpick container, the sealing component 23 will release the seal on the outlet end of the receiving component 22, thereby allowing the toothpicks to fall into the packaging container and achieving the packaging of the toothpicks.

[0028] The outlet end of the receiving component 22 is located above the collecting component 3, which makes it easy for the toothpick to fall into the packaging container.

[0029] In a preferred embodiment, the receiving assembly 22 includes a rotating disk 221, a feeding hopper 222, and a motor 223. The rotating disk 221 is rotatably mounted on the mounting frame 21, and two feeding hoppers 222 are located on the side of the rotating disk 221. The motor 223 is poweredly connected to the rotating disk 221. The feeding hopper 222 is conical to facilitate the collection of finished toothpicks into the feeding hopper 222. The other end of the feeding hopper 222 serves as the outlet end of the receiving assembly 22. When the feeding hopper 222 is directly above the toothpick packaging container, the sealing assembly 23 releases the seal on the narrow end of the feeding hopper 222, allowing the toothpicks to fall into the packaging container.

[0030] In a preferred embodiment, the sealing assembly 23 includes a sealing plate 231 and a spring 232. The sealing plate 231 is movably mounted on the side of the rotating disk 221 via the spring 232. The sealing plate 231 fits within a linear guide groove on the side of the rotating disk 221 and can move along the axis of the rotating disk 221. The sealing plate 231 contacts the outlet of the feed hopper 222. The sealing plate 231 is used to seal the outlet end of the feed hopper 222.

[0031] In a preferred embodiment, the mounting frame 21 is provided with a guide groove 211, which is circular and has a transverse sliding groove 212 pointing towards the center of the circle at the position directly opposite the collecting component 3. The sealing plate 231 is provided with a ball bearing 2311 at one end near the rotating disk 221, and the ball bearing 2311 fits in the guide groove 211. The receiving component 22 drives the sealing component 23 to rotate. When the ball bearing 2311 moves to the sliding groove 212, the spring 232 will pull the sealing plate 231 to move towards the center of the rotating disk 221, thereby releasing the seal on the outlet end of the feeding hopper 222. At this time, the toothpick will fall into the packaging container. When all the toothpicks have fallen into the packaging container, the rotating disk 221 continues to rotate. With the cooperation of the ball bearing 2311 and the guide groove 211, the sealing plate 231 will move away from the center of the rotating disk 221, thereby sealing the outlet end of the feed hopper 222 again.

[0032] In a preferred embodiment, the collecting component 3 includes a circulating conveyor belt 31 and a clamp 32. The circulating conveyor belt 31 is disposed on the workbench 1, and at least one clamp 32 is disposed on the circulating conveyor belt 31. The circulating conveyor belt 31 is used to drive the clamp 32 to perform reciprocating cyclical motion, and the clamp 32 is used to fix the packaging container of the toothpicks.

[0033] In a preferred embodiment, the clamp 32 includes a mounting sleeve 321, a return spring 322, and clamping plates 323. The mounting sleeve 321 is disposed on the circulating conveyor belt 31, and at least three clamping plates 323 are movably mounted inside the mounting sleeve 321 by means of the return springs 322. When a packaging container is placed between the clamping plates 323, the clamping plates 323 will clamp the packaging container under the elastic force of the return springs 322.

[0034] The working principle of this utility model:

[0035] In use, the packaging container is first placed between the clamping plates 323. The clamping plates 323 will clamp the packaging container under the elastic force of the return spring 322. The circulating conveyor belt 31 will then drive the packaging container to move.

[0036] Restart motor 223, which drives receiving assembly 22 to rotate, first collecting the produced toothpicks into feeding hopper 222. When ball bearing 2311 moves to slide groove 212, spring 232 pulls sealing plate 231 towards the center of rotating disk 221, thereby releasing the seal on the outlet end of feeding hopper 222. At this time, toothpicks fall into the packaging container. When all toothpicks have fallen into the packaging container, continue rotating disk 221. With the cooperation of ball bearing 2311 and guide groove 211, sealing plate 231 moves away from the center of rotating disk 221, thereby resealing the outlet end of feeding hopper 222, allowing feeding hopper 222 to collect produced toothpicks again.

[0037] When all the toothpicks have fallen into the packaging container, the circulating conveyor belt 31 will continue to move the packaging container. Then, the fully loaded packaging container will be manually removed, the lid of the packaging container will be closed, and the toothpicks will be packaged.

[0038] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
