[0026] The present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0027] like Figure 1-3 As shown, a meatball lifting and water-spraying conveyor includes a conveyor belt assembly 1 and a support frame 2 for mounting the conveyor belt assembly 1. A bracket 21 is mounted on the top of the support frame 2. One end of the bracket 21 is inclined upwards and has a slope. The conveyor belt assembly 1 includes a conveyor belt 10 arranged around the surface of the bracket 21. Multiple upright blocks 103 are spaced apart on the surface of the conveyor belt 10. The blocks 103 are detachably mounted on the surface of the conveyor belt 10. The left end of the bracket 21 is a horizontal plane, and the right end of the bracket 21 is an inclined plane. The conveyor belt 10 is arranged close to the surface of the bracket 21. After being conveyed from the previous process, the meatball products fall onto the surface of the conveyor belt assembly 1 on the bracket 21. The conveyor belt 10 conveys the meatball products from left to right and from low to high, lifting the meatballs from the previous process to the next process. The blocks 103 on the surface of the conveyor belt 10 prevent the meatball products from falling back, further improving the conveying efficiency.
[0028] It also includes a water spraying mechanism for spraying water onto the conveyor belt and a water supply component for filling the water spraying mechanism with water. The water spraying mechanism includes a first water spraying box 31 and a second water spraying box 32 disposed above the first water spraying box 31. Water from the second water spraying box 32 can spray onto the first water spraying box 31. The water from the first water spraying box 31 and the second water spraying box 32 can spray onto the meatballs on the conveyor belt, thereby keeping the meatballs moist and preventing them from losing moisture too quickly and affecting their quality.
[0029] Both the first water spray box 31 and the second water spray box 32 can be installed on the support frame 2. The water supply assembly may include a water pump and water supply pipe connected to the first water spray box 31 and the second water spray box 32, or it may be a pipeline that delivers water with a certain water pressure.
[0030] Furthermore, the conveyor belt assembly 1 is provided with support baffles 22 on both sides, which are no lower than the height of the stop block 103. The two ends of the bracket 21 are respectively connected and fixed to the support baffles 22. The support baffles 22 close the two sides of the conveyor belt 10. When the conveyor belt is lifted, the meatballs will roll. The support baffles 22 at both ends can prevent the meatballs from falling to the outside, further ensuring the stability of the conveyor belt assembly 1 in conveying the meatballs.
[0031] Furthermore: The support 21 includes a flat-bottom support 201 and a flipping support 202 hinged to the flat-bottom support 201. The flipping support 202 and the flat-bottom support 201 are connected by a hinge assembly 23. The hinge assembly 23 has an arc-shaped surface. In conjunction with the flipping support 202, it can improve the smoothness of the turning of the conveyor belt 10. The tilt angle of the flipping support 202 can be adjusted by the hinge assembly 23 to adapt to the conveying connection of more processes. A rotating shaft 24 that cooperates with the conveyor belt 10 is provided at the intersection of the flat-bottom support 201 and the flipping support 202. The rotating shaft 24 can change the path of the conveyor belt 10 from a horizontal route to a lifting route. The flipping angle of the flipping support 202 ensures that the conveyor belt 10 can run stably. One end of the support frame 2 is supported at the bottom of the flipping support 202 to prevent the flipping support 202 from collapsing due to excessive gravity.
[0032] Furthermore: A collection port 11 is provided above the flat bottom support 201. The collection port 11 is funnel-shaped and cooperates with the previous process. The meatballs processed in the previous process fall into the collection port 11. The collection port 11 is exactly in cooperation with the conveyor belt 10 to collect the meatballs onto the surface of the conveyor belt 10 for transportation.
[0033] Furthermore, the conveyor belt assembly 1 also includes sprockets 12 disposed at both ends of the support 21. The sprockets 12 are driven by the conveyor belt 10 through a rotating shaft 14. When the rotating shaft 14, in which the sprockets 12 are nested, rotates, the conveyor belt 10 moves accordingly. A drive motor 13 is disposed above the support 21. The drive motor 13 is driven by the sprockets 12. The rotation of the drive motor 13 drives the sprockets 12 to rotate, so that the conveyor belt assembly 1 runs stably and the meatball products are lifted and transported stably.
[0034] Furthermore, the conveyor belt 10 has protrusions 101 formed on its surface, and the protrusions 101 have grooves 102 formed on their surface that match the stop block 103. The stop block 103 is detachably installed in the groove 102. This detachable design makes it convenient to clean the conveyor belt 10.
[0035] Furthermore, the water spraying mechanism also includes a water spray nozzle 33, which is used to spray water onto the conveyor belt. The water spray nozzle 33 can spray water onto the meatballs in the form of water mist, further reducing the rate of moisture loss from the meatballs, or replenishing the meatballs with water and improving the quality of the meatballs.
[0036] In summary, this utility model possesses the aforementioned excellent characteristics, enabling it to achieve unprecedented efficiency in use and thus become a highly practical product.
[0037] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of this utility model. For those skilled in the art, there will be changes in the specific implementation method and application scope based on the idea of this utility model. The content of this specification should not be construed as a limitation of this utility model.
