[0020] The utility model is described in detail below in combination with the drawings and examples.
[0021] The moon cake automatic packaging machine, such as Figures 1-3As shown, including packaging equipment 1, packaging equipment 1 selects pillow packaging equipment, one end is provided with conveying mechanism 2 for conveying moon cakes, conveying mechanism 2 transports the finished moon cakes to the packaging equipment 1, the moon cakes are conveyed into the rolled packaging channel, and then the packaging equipment 1 cuts the packaging channel, finally completes the packaging of the moon cakes, the conveying mechanism 2 comprises a support frame 3 and a conveyor belt 4 arranged in the support frame 3, the conveying mechanism 2 is installed at the inlet end of the packaging equipment 1, the conveyor belt 4 is placed in the support frame 3, and the support frame 3 is also provided with a driving wheel for driving the conveyor belt 4 to transmit, the driving wheel cooperates with the conveyor belt 4, and the driving wheel pulls the conveyor belt 4 to run after being started. A plurality of spacers uniformly spaced are also arranged on the outer peripheral wall of the conveyor belt 4, the spacers limit the position of the moon cakes, so that the moon cakes are more uniform when placed, and the cutting is ensured between adjacent moon cakes during subsequent packaging and cutting, ensuring the accuracy and integrity of the moon cake packaging.
[0022] As shown in Figure 3 and Figure 4 The support frame 3 is fixedly connected with a detection head 5, the support frame 3 is fixedly connected with a connecting frame through bolts, the detection head 5 and a control console 6 are arranged on the connecting frame, the detection head 5 is selected from a conventional camera, the detection head 5 is connected with the control console 6 through a data connection line and transmits data information to the control console 6, the support frame 3 is provided with the control console 6 for receiving the signal of the detection head 5, the control console 6 is pre-set with a control group, the photographed photos are compared with the control group, and the size has an error tolerance range during the comparison process. The specific comparison requirements can be set in the control console 6, the control console 6 compares the difference obviously, transmits the control signal downward, removes the moon cakes that do not meet the requirements, and does not participate in the subsequent packaging work, thereby improving the packaging efficiency.
[0023] As shown in Figures 3-5 The support frame 3 is also provided with a removal channel 7 in communication with the conveyor belt 4, a vacuum pump is arranged at one end of the removal channel 7 away from the support frame 3, a shielding door 8 is rotatably connected to one side of the removal channel 7 close to the conveyor belt 4, the shielding door 8 is arranged to make the side wall of the support frame 3 where the conveyor belt 4 is placed complete, avoid the moon cakes from sliding off during the conveying process due to the arrangement of the removal channel 7, ensure the stable conveying of the moon cakes on the conveyor belt 4, and the vacuum pump is started after the control console 6 receives the signal of the moon cakes that do not meet the requirements, the control console 6 sends a start signal to the vacuum pump, and the running time of the vacuum pump is set initially. The unqualified moon cakes are pulled into the removal channel 7 within this time, and the specific setting time is adjusted according to different equipment. The pulling force generated by the vacuum pump pulls the shielding door 8 to rotate towards the removal channel 7, the removal channel 7 is in communication with the top surface of the conveyor belt 4, and the suction force of the vacuum pump pulls the unqualified moon cakes to move to the removal channel 7, thereby completing the cleaning process of the unqualified moon cakes. After the packaging is completed, only the empty bag needs to be cleaned.
[0024] AsFigure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, the blocking door 8 rotates unidirectionally toward the clearing channel 7. A torsion spring is provided at the rotational connection between the blocking door 8 and the clearing channel 7, allowing the blocking door 8 to rotate only toward the clearing channel 7. This prevents the blocking door 8 from rotating toward the other side and affecting the operation of the conveyor belt 4. The vacuum pump pulls the blocking door 8 to rotate, and the torsion spring undergoes torsional deformation when the blocking door 8 rotates. When the vacuum pump stops, the elastic force generated by the deformed torsion spring drives the blocking door 8 to rotate back to its initial state. The blocking door 8 then blocks the opening of the clearing channel 7 near the conveyor belt 4 again, ensuring the conveyor belt 4 can transport mooncakes under normal conditions. The inner bottom surface of the clearing channel 7 is at the same level as the top surface of the conveyor belt 4, making the transfer of mooncakes from the conveyor belt 4 to the clearing channel 7 smoother and more efficient, thus improving the efficiency of the mooncake clearing process.
[0025] like Figures 1-3 and Figure 5 As shown, the connection between the cleaning channel 7 and the conveyor belt 4 is located at one-third of the way from the packaging equipment 1 on the conveyor belt 4, and the detection head 5 is located at one-half of the way from the packaging equipment 1 on the conveyor belt 4. There is a certain distance between the location of the detection signal and the location of the cleaning channel 7. This design ensures that the vacuum pump has sufficient power to clean the defective mooncakes. The vacuum pump needs a certain amount of time to reach its maximum power after startup. If the vacuum pump is started immediately after the signal is detected to clean the defective mooncakes, the vacuum pump will not have enough power and will be unable to open the cover door 8. Simultaneously, it can also clean up substandard mooncakes. This design utilizes the time difference between the conveyor belt 4 and the two positions to allow the vacuum pump to run at maximum power and generate sufficient force to pull the shielding door 8 open, thus realizing the cleaning process of substandard mooncakes. Therefore, when actually operating the equipment, the distance between the cleaning channel 7 and the detection head 5 should be calculated. The time spent by the conveyor belt 4 within this distance and the time required for the vacuum pump to run to the point where it can pull the shielding door 8 open and pull the mooncake to the cleaning channel 7 should be the same, ensuring that substandard mooncakes can be stably cleaned out when transported to this area.
[0026] like Figures 1-5As shown, an inclined groove 9 is provided on the bottom surface of the cleaning channel 7 at the end away from the conveyor belt 4. A through groove communicating with the lowest end of the inclined groove 9 is opened on the side wall of the cleaning channel 7. A cover door 10 is rotatably connected to the outside of the cleaning channel 7. The cross-sectional area of the cover door 10 is larger than the cross-sectional area of the through groove. A cleaning belt 11 is provided on the side of the cleaning channel 7 near the cover door 10. The vacuum pump draws mooncakes into the cleaning channel 7. Under the guidance of the inclined groove 9, the mooncakes are discharged from the cleaning pipe along the through groove. The cover door 10 is provided to block the through groove when the vacuum pump is started, to prevent the vacuum pump from absorbing the gas entering from the through groove after starting, and to ensure that the gas drawn by the vacuum pump comes from the blocking door 8. Only under these conditions can substandard mooncakes be stably removed. At the same time, the cover door 10 is located outside the removal channel 7, and the cross-sectional area of the cover door 10 is larger than that of the through groove. This allows the mooncakes sliding along the inclined groove 9 to be stably pushed open by the cover door 10 and slid away from the removal channel 7. After the vacuum pump is started, the pulling of the cover door 10 will only increase the tightness of the cover door 10 in blocking the through groove, and will not cause the cover door 10 to rotate along the through groove into the removal channel 7. This is also for the stable operation of the entire structure. The removal belt 11 is also set as a transmission belt. The discharged substandard mooncakes are transported along the transmission belt for convenient subsequent collection and processing.
[0027] Working principle: Power is turned on to packaging equipment 1 and conveyor mechanism 2 to ensure all components are operating normally. The processed mooncakes are placed on conveyor belt 4 of conveyor mechanism 2. The drive wheel starts, pulling conveyor belt 4, causing the mooncakes to move towards packaging equipment 1. Conveyor belt 4 transports the mooncakes to below detection head 5. Detection head 5 takes a picture of the mooncake and transmits the data to control console 6. If control console 6 detects that the mooncake size does not meet requirements, it sends a control signal to the vacuum pump. The vacuum pump starts, generating a pulling force that causes the barrier door 8 to rotate towards the clearing channel 7. The suction force pulls the substandard mooncakes into the cleaning channel 7. The mooncakes sucked into the cleaning channel 7 are guided by the inclined groove 9 and discharged from the cleaning pipe along the through groove. After cleaning, the torsion spring undergoes torsional deformation when the blocking door 8 rotates. When the vacuum pump stops, the blocking door 8 rotates back to its initial state under the elastic force generated by the deformed torsion spring. The blocking door 8 blocks the cleaning channel 7 to prevent qualified mooncakes from entering the cleaning channel 7, while the qualified mooncakes continue to move with the conveyor belt 4 into the packaging equipment 1. The packaging equipment 1 cuts the packaging channel to complete the packaging of the mooncakes.
