Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of counting machine technology, specifically to a single-head dual-channel electronic counting machine. Background Technology

[0002] As a core packaging equipment in the pharmaceutical, health product, and food industries, granule counters are mainly used for high-precision counting and dispensing of granular materials (such as tablets, capsules, and candies). Chinese Patent Publication No. CN222292181U discloses an electronic granule counter that, through the coordination of a counting photoelectric sensor, a feeder, a channel, and a gate, can accurately count and dispense countable granular materials. However, in actual production, because the granular materials themselves contain dust, and friction and collision during vibrating conveying also generate dust, over time, dust accumulates inside the granule counter. This dust affects the counting photoelectric sensor, thus affecting the counter's judgment of the quantity of granular materials, leading to a discrepancy between the quantity of granular materials in the bottle and the specified value. Utility Model Content

[0003] To overcome the shortcomings of the prior art, this utility model provides a single-head dual-channel electronic counting machine, which solves the problem that dust accumulation affects the counting accuracy of the counting machine.

[0004] The technical solution adopted in this utility model is as follows:

[0005] A single-head, dual-channel electronic grain counter includes a frame, a hopper on the frame, at least two vibrating plates below the hopper, each vibrating plate equipped with a vibrator, and further includes:

[0006] The No. 1 through hole is located on the back of the hopper;

[0007] The No. 1 dust collection hopper is located on the back of the hopper and is attached to the back of the hopper. The dust collection port of the No. 1 dust collection hopper is connected to the No. 1 through hole.

[0008] The second dust collection bucket is positioned between and below the vibrating plates;

[0009] The suction hoses are connected to the first and second suction buckets, respectively.

[0010] A sealing strip is provided between the No. 1 dust collection hopper and the hopper.

[0011] It also includes a feeding seat, which has a feeding channel. A frame-type counting sensor is provided above the feeding channel. A material gate is provided inside the feeding channel, and the material gate is equipped with a telescopic element.

[0012] The telescopic element is a dual-axis cylinder.

[0013] A mounting base is provided between the feeding channel and the frame-type counting sensor. The frame-type counting sensor, the mounting base, and the feeding channel are connected in sequence. A second through hole and an air blowing bucket are provided on one side of the mounting base. The air blowing bucket is attached to the mounting base and connected to the second through hole.

[0014] The feeding seat includes a front plate, which is made of a transparent material.

[0015] The material outlet of the hopper is equipped with baffles on both sides.

[0016] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0017] The suction pipe is connected to the dust collection equipment. Most of the dust in the hopper is sucked away by the first dust collection hopper. The remaining dust is sucked away by the second dust collection hopper as it moves from the previous vibrating plate to the next vibrating plate. By suctioning from multiple locations, the accumulation of dust inside the machine is ensured, thus ensuring that the machine can operate effectively for a long time. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation

[0022] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments:

[0023] In the embodiments, such as Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, a single-head, dual-channel electronic pellet counter includes a frame 1, a hopper 2 mounted on the frame 1, at least two vibrating plates 3 below the hopper 2, each vibrating plate 3 equipped with a vibrator 4, and further includes:

[0024] Through hole 5 is located on the back of hopper 2;

[0025] The first dust collection hopper 6 is located on the back of the hopper 2 and is attached to the back of the hopper 2. The dust collection port of the first dust collection hopper 6 is connected to the first hole 5.

[0026] The second dust collection bucket 7 is set between the vibrating plates 3 and located below the vibrating plates 3;

[0027] The suction pipe 8 is connected to the first suction bucket 6 and the second suction bucket 7 respectively.

[0028] The suction pipe 8 is connected to the dust collection equipment. Most of the dust in the hopper 2 is sucked away by the first dust collection hopper 6. The remaining dust is sucked away by the second dust collection hopper 7 as it enters the next vibrating plate 3 from the previous vibrating plate 3. Through multi-position dust collection, the accumulation of dust inside the machine is ensured, thereby ensuring that the machine can operate effectively for a long time.

[0029] In the embodiments, such as Figure 2 As shown, a sealing strip 9 is provided between the first dust collection hopper 6 and the hopper 2. This ensures the airtightness between the first dust collection hopper 6 and the hopper 2, resulting in good dust collection performance.

[0030] In the embodiments, such as Figure 1 , Figure 3 As shown, it also includes a feeding seat, which has a feeding channel 10. A frame-type counting sensor 11 is provided above the feeding channel. A material gate 12 is provided inside the feeding channel 10, and the material gate 12 is equipped with a telescopic element 18. The material gate 12 is opened or closed by the telescopic element 18. The frame-type counting sensor 12 can be directly installed above the feeding channel 10, making the counting and feeding structure simple.

[0031] In this embodiment, the telescopic element 18 is a dual-axis cylinder. Dual-axis cylinders offer good stability and high precision, ensuring that the material gate does not interfere with the back plate of the material feed seat during movement.

[0032] In the embodiments, such as Figure 1 As shown, a mounting base 13 is provided between the feeding channel 10 and the frame-type counting sensor 11. The frame-type counting sensor 11, the mounting base 13, and the feeding channel 10 are connected in sequence. A second through hole 14 and an air blowing bucket 15 are provided on one side of the mounting base 13. The air blowing bucket 15 is attached to the mounting base 13 and connected to the second through hole 14. The air blowing bucket 15 is connected to an ion blower through a pipe. The ion blower removes static electricity from the surface of the material particles, preventing the material particles from sticking to the inner wall of the feeding channel 10 due to static electricity, which would cause inaccurate counting.

[0033] In the embodiments, such as Figure 3 As shown, the feeding seat includes a front plate 16, which is made of a transparent material. This facilitates observation of the material particles falling within the feeding channel 10, allowing for timely detection of problems.

[0034] In the embodiments, such as Figure 3 As shown, baffles 17 are provided on both sides of the discharge port of the hopper 2. This prevents material particles from overflowing to both sides when there are too many particles at the discharge port of the hopper 2, and then falling out from both sides of the vibrating plate 3.

[0035] Obviously, the above embodiments of this utility model are merely illustrative examples and not intended to limit the implementation of this utility model. Those skilled in the art can make other variations or modifications based on the above description. It is neither necessary nor possible to exhaustively list all possible implementations. However, these obvious variations or modifications derived from the essential spirit of this utility model still fall within the protection scope of this utility model.
