[0025] To make the technical problems, technical solutions, and beneficial effects of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model.
[0026] Please refer to the following: Figure 1 and Figure 2 The present invention provides a device for detecting instant noodle seasoning packets. The device includes a support 1, a connecting rod 2, and an annular proximity switch 3. The connecting rod 2 is fixedly mounted on the support 1; the annular proximity switch 3 is fixedly mounted on the bottom of the connecting rod 2, and the detection hole 301 at the center of the annular proximity switch 3 is adapted to the seasoning packet.
[0027] This embodiment provides a detection device for instant noodle seasoning packets. Compared with the prior art, a bracket 1 is mounted on a bag-stacking machine, and a connecting rod 2 is fixedly mounted on the bracket 1. A ring proximity switch 3 is fixedly mounted on the bottom of the connecting rod 2. Before being stored in the box, the seasoning packet passes through the detection hole 301 on the ring proximity switch 3. The ring proximity switch 3 can automatically detect whether there are metal objects inside the seasoning packet, thereby improving the detection efficiency.
[0028] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 A support plate 302 is installed on both sides of the annular proximity switch 3, and a transfer roller 303 is installed between the two support plates 302. In this embodiment, during actual production, the seasoning packets are packaged together at the end. Therefore, when the seasoning packets are detected, they will continuously pass through the detection hole 301 of the annular proximity switch 3. The two support plates 302 are fixedly installed on both sides of the annular proximity switch 3, and a support shaft is installed between the two support plates 302. The transfer roller 303 is rotatably installed on the support shaft. The transfer roller 303 is located on the feeding side of the detection hole 301, providing support and guidance for the seasoning packets, thereby enabling the seasoning packets to enter the detection hole 301 more smoothly.
[0029] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 1The support plate 302 and the annular proximity switch 3 are fixed together by a suction cup 304. In this embodiment, the suction cup 304 is fixedly mounted on the support plate 302, and the suction cup 304 is adsorbed onto the side wall of the annular proximity switch 3 by vacuuming. The use of the suction cup 304 for fixing facilitates the assembly and disassembly of the support plate 302.
[0030] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 1 A bushing 305 is installed inside the detection hole 301. In this embodiment, the bushing 305 and the annular proximity switch 3 are separate structures. Since the seasoning packet continuously passes through the detection hole 301, friction will occur between the seasoning packet and the annular proximity switch 3, causing wear to the annular proximity switch 3. To avoid the cost of replacing and repairing the annular proximity switch 3, a bushing 305 is installed inside the detection hole 301, and only the bushing 305 needs to be replaced.
[0031] In some embodiments, the bushing 305 is made of sponge. In this embodiment, the sponge has a certain elasticity and can produce a certain elastic deformation, thereby completely wrapping the seasoning packet. On the one hand, this can reduce the shaking of the seasoning packet during the testing process, and on the other hand, it can clean foreign objects from the outer surface of the seasoning packet.
[0032] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 4 A retaining ring 306 is fixedly installed at both ends of the bushing 305 along its length, and the two retaining rings 306 abut against the outer end face of the annular proximity switch 3, respectively. In this embodiment, the two retaining rings 306 are located on both sides of the axial direction of the annular proximity switch 3 (i.e., the direction in which the seasoning packet passes through the detection hole 301). The two retaining rings 306 abut against the two outer end faces of the annular proximity switch 3, thereby limiting the bushing 305 on the annular proximity switch 3 and effectively preventing the bushing 305 from coming out of the annular proximity switch 3.
[0033] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 4 and Figure 5 The retaining ring 306 is assembled from two semicircular rings 307, and the bushing 305 has an annular groove 308 for mounting the semicircular rings 307. In this embodiment, the two semicircular rings 307 are fastened together to form a complete ring (i.e., the retaining ring 306). The two semicircular rings 307 are fixed together by magnetic attraction. The annular groove 308 on the bushing 305 is used to position the semicircular rings 307, thereby restricting the movement of the semicircular rings 307 along the axial direction of the bushing 305. The retaining ring 306 can be assembled or disassembled by the two semicircular rings 307 moving towards or away from each other.
[0034] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 3A drive sleeve 101 is rotatably mounted on the bracket 1. The drive sleeve 101 is fitted over the outside of the connecting rod 2 and is threadedly connected to the connecting rod 2. In this embodiment, a bearing 102 is installed between the drive sleeve 101 and the bracket 1, thereby reducing the frictional resistance between the drive sleeve 101 and the bracket 1, making it easier to rotate the drive sleeve 101. The connecting rod 2 is arranged vertically. Since the drive sleeve 101 and the connecting rod 2 are threadedly connected, when the drive sleeve 101 rotates, it will drive the connecting rod 2 to move vertically, thereby realizing the adjustment of the height of the annular proximity switch 3.
[0035] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 1 Two guide rods 103 are also installed between the bracket 1 and the annular proximity switch 3. The two guide rods 103 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the connecting rod 2. The lower end of the guide rod 103 is fixedly connected to the annular proximity switch 3, and the upper end of the guide rod 103 is slidably engaged with the bracket 1. In this embodiment, the guide rod 103 is a cylindrical rod and is arranged vertically. The lower end of the guide rod 103 is fixedly connected to the top surface of the annular proximity switch 3, and the bracket 1 has through holes that match the guide rods 103. The two guide rods 103 guide the annular proximity switch 3, so that the annular proximity switch 3 can remain relatively stable during vertical movement, and at the same time, prevent the annular proximity switch 3 from rotating around the connecting rod 2.
[0036] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 3 An operating rod 104 is mounted on the outer side of the drive sleeve 101. In this embodiment, there are at least two operating rods 104, evenly distributed along the outer circumference of the drive sleeve 101. The operator rotates the drive sleeve 101 by holding the operating rod 104, thereby driving the connecting rod 2 to move up and down vertically. A receiving cavity 105 for accommodating the operating rod 104 is provided on the outer wall of the drive sleeve 101, and one end of the operating rod 104 is hinged to the top of the receiving cavity 105. When the drive sleeve 101 does not need to be rotated, the operating rod 104 hangs down naturally in the vertical direction and is completely located in the receiving cavity 105, which not only realizes the storage of the operating rod 104, but also prevents accidental contact with the operating rod 104. When the drive sleeve 101 needs to be rotated, the operating rod 104 is first rotated out of the receiving cavity 105, and then the operator can hold the operating rod 104 to apply force to the drive sleeve 101, causing the drive sleeve 101 to rotate.
[0037] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
