Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of vacuum tumbling machine technology, specifically to a feeding device for a vacuum tumbling machine used in the production of quick-frozen aquatic products. Background Technology

[0002] A vacuum tumbler is a device used in the production of quick-frozen aquatic products to mix aquatic products and seasonings. By tumbling the aquatic products in a vacuum environment, it can effectively improve the quality, taste, and flavor of the products, while also increasing the yield. The vacuum tumbler mainly consists of a drum, a vacuum pump and pipeline, a drive system, and a support frame. The drive system consists of a motor and a belt. A connecting shaft is installed at the end of the drum, and the belt is set on the connecting shaft and the motor output shaft. The motor drives the output shaft, and the belt drives the connecting shaft and the drum to rotate. The vacuum pump and pipeline create a vacuum environment to extract air from inside the drum.

[0003] In the existing technology, vacuum tumbling machines are driven by a motor to drive the output shaft and use a belt to drive the connecting shaft and the drum to rotate. This soft connection method of driving the drum to rotate leads to a faster service life of the belt, and the belt is prone to slippage due to the inertia of the drum during rotation. Therefore, a feeding device for a vacuum tumbling machine for quick-frozen aquatic product production is proposed to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0004] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides a feeding device for a vacuum tumbler used in quick-frozen aquatic product production. It has the advantage of reciprocating rotational mixing and solves the problems of vacuum tumblers using a motor-driven output shaft and belt-driven connecting shaft and drum rotation. This soft connection method of driving drum rotation leads to faster belt life and belt slippage due to the inertia of the drum during rotation.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: a feeding device for a vacuum tumbling machine for quick-frozen aquatic product production, comprising a support frame, a vacuum cylinder and a vacuum pump mounted on the support frame, and a rotating structure and a driving structure mounted on the support frame;

[0006] The rotating structure includes a support frame mounted on the outer surface of the vacuum cylinder and fixedly connected to the top of the support frame. A mounting box is fixedly mounted on one side of the support frame. A connecting column with one end extending to the outside is rotatably mounted inside the mounting box. One end of the connecting column is fixedly connected to a connecting plate fixedly mounted on one side of the vacuum cylinder. A gear is fixedly mounted on the outer surface of the connecting column. A mounting frame is fixedly mounted on the rear side wall of the inner cavity of the mounting box. A rack that meshes with the outer surface of the gear is slidably mounted inside the mounting frame. A limiting component for limiting the sliding trajectory of the rack is provided inside the mounting frame.

[0007] Furthermore, the drive structure includes a feed component that is fixedly installed inside the mounting box and used to control the up and down movement of the rack. Pressure sensors electrically connected to the feed component are fixedly installed on the inner top wall and inner bottom wall of the mounting frame.

[0008] Furthermore, the vacuum pump is fixedly installed on the support frame, and a vacuum pumping pipe is connected between the vacuum pump and the vacuum cylinder.

[0009] Furthermore, the support frame includes two mounting frames, both of which are fixedly mounted on the top of the support frame. Bearings are fixedly mounted inside the two mounting frames, and the inner peripheral walls of the two bearings are respectively fixedly connected to the outer surface of the vacuum cylinder.

[0010] Furthermore, the limiting component includes a limiting strip and a limiting groove. The limiting strip is fixedly installed on the rear side wall of the inner cavity of the mounting frame, and the limiting groove is opened on the back of the rack. The outer surface of the limiting strip is slidably connected to the inner wall of the limiting groove.

[0011] Furthermore, four fixing screws with one end penetrating through and extending to the outside of the connecting plate are fixedly installed at the end of the vacuum cylinder, and each of the four fixing screws is threaded with a nut for fixing the position of the connecting plate.

[0012] Furthermore, the feeding component includes a mounting bracket and an electric push rod. The mounting bracket is fixedly installed between the left and right side walls of the inner cavity of the mounting box, and the electric push rod is fixedly installed on the mounting bracket. The telescopic end of the electric push rod is fixedly connected to the bottom of the rack.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the technical solution of this application has the following beneficial effects:

[0014] The feeding device of this vacuum tumbler for quick-frozen aquatic product production incorporates a rotating and driving structure. It utilizes an electric push rod in the feeding component as a drive source, which drives a rack to slide. This causes the rack to rotate, meshing with a gear. The moving rack presses against a pressure sensor, triggering the electric push rod to retract. This, in turn, moves the rack downwards, causing the gear to rotate in the opposite direction. This, in turn, drives the vacuum cylinder to continuously rotate forward and backward via a rotating connecting column and connecting plate. This results in more uniform mixing of the aquatic products and seasonings inside the vacuum cylinder, further improving mixing efficiency and enhancing the practicality of the feeding device of the vacuum tumbler for quick-frozen aquatic product production.

[0019] 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.

[0020] Please see Figures 1 to 3 The feeding device of a vacuum tumbling machine for quick-frozen aquatic product production in this embodiment includes a support frame 1, a vacuum cylinder 2 and a vacuum pump 3 arranged on the support frame 1, a rotating structure and a driving structure arranged on the support frame 1, the vacuum pump 3 is fixedly installed on the support frame 1, and a vacuum pumping pipe is connected between the vacuum pump 3 and the vacuum cylinder 2.

[0021] In this embodiment, the rotating structure includes a support frame 41 mounted on the outer surface of the vacuum cylinder 2 and fixedly connected to the top of the support frame 1. The support frame 1 includes two mounting frames, both of which are fixedly mounted on the top of the support frame 1. Bearings are fixedly mounted inside the two mounting frames. The inner circumferential walls of the two bearings are fixedly connected to the outer surface of the vacuum cylinder 2 to facilitate the rotation of the vacuum cylinder 2. A mounting box 42 is fixedly mounted on one side of the support frame 1. A connecting column 43 with one end penetrating and extending to the outside is rotatably mounted inside the mounting box 42. One end of the connecting column 43 is fixedly connected to a connecting plate 48 fixedly mounted on one side of the vacuum cylinder 2. A gear 44 is fixedly mounted on the outer surface of the connecting column 43. A mounting frame 45 is fixedly mounted on the rear side wall of the inner cavity of the mounting box 42. A rack 46 that meshes with the outer surface of the gear 44 is slidably mounted inside the mounting frame 45. A limiting component 47 for limiting the sliding trajectory of the rack 46 is provided inside the mounting frame 45.

[0022] The limiting component 47 includes a limiting strip and a limiting groove. The limiting strip is fixedly installed on the rear side wall of the inner cavity of the mounting frame 45, and the limiting groove is opened on the back of the rack 46. The outer surface of the limiting strip is slidably connected to the inner wall of the limiting groove to limit the trajectory and direction of the rack 46 sliding.

[0023] In addition, four fixing screws with one end penetrating through and extending to the outside of the connecting plate 48 are fixedly installed at the end of the vacuum cylinder 2. Nuts for fixing the position of the connecting plate 48 are threaded on the four fixing screws, which facilitates the connection and fixing of the vacuum cylinder 2 and the connecting column 43.

[0024] By adopting the above technical solution, the rack 46 is controlled to move upward inside the mounting frame 45 by the drive structure, so that the moving rack 46 drives the gear 44 meshing with it to rotate, thereby controlling the rotation of the connecting column 43, and thus driving the connecting plate 48 and the vacuum cylinder 2 to rotate.

[0025] In this embodiment, the drive structure includes a feed component 49 fixedly installed inside the mounting box 42 and used to control the up and down movement of the rack 46. Pressure sensors 50 electrically connected to the feed component 49 are fixedly installed on the inner top wall and inner bottom wall of the mounting frame 45. The feed component 49 includes a mounting bracket and an electric push rod. The mounting bracket is fixedly installed between the left and right side walls of the inner cavity of the mounting box 42. The electric push rod is fixedly installed on the mounting bracket. The telescopic end of the electric push rod is fixedly connected to the bottom of the rack 46, so that the rack 46 can be moved up and down by telescopic movement of the electric push rod.

[0026] By adopting the above technical solution, the electric push rod in the feed component 49 is activated, which extends the electric push rod and drives the rack 46 to move upward inside the mounting frame 45 until the moving rack 46 presses against the pressure sensor 50 on the top wall of the mounting frame 45, thereby triggering the electric push rod to retract and drive the rack 46 to move downward.

[0027] The working principle of the above embodiments is as follows:

[0028] The feeding device of this vacuum tumbler for quick-frozen aquatic product production operates by activating the electric push rod in the feeding component 49. This extends the electric push rod and drives the rack 46 to move upward inside the mounting frame 45. The moving rack 46 drives the gear 44 meshing with it to rotate, thereby controlling the rotation of the connecting column 43. This, in turn, drives the connecting plate 48 and the vacuum cylinder 2 to rotate in the forward direction until the moving rack 46 presses against the pressure sensor 50 on the inner top wall of the mounting frame 45. This triggers the electric push rod to retract and drive the rack 46 to move downward. The moving rack 46 then drives the gear 44 to rotate in the reverse direction, which in turn drives the vacuum cylinder 2 to rotate in the reverse direction through the connecting column 43 and the connecting plate 48 until the rack 46 presses against the pressure sensor 50 on the inner bottom wall of the mounting frame 45. This controls the continuous forward and reverse rotation of the vacuum cylinder 2, resulting in more uniform mixing of the aquatic products inside the vacuum cylinder 2.
