[0003] In the process of developing this application, the following problems were found with the technology: the existing stick ejector device for bar ice cream has a large size and model due to the many procedures and processes involved in its use. As a result, the device occupies a large space in a small production workshop during subsequent use, thus reducing the practicality of the equipment.

[0004] Therefore, a device for ejecting sticks for bar-shaped ice cream is proposed. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this utility model is to solve the problem that the existing ejector stick device for bar-shaped ice cream has a large size and model due to the many procedures and processes involved in its use, which in turn makes the device occupy a large space in a small production workshop. This utility model provides an ejector stick device for bar-shaped ice cream.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model specifically adopts the following technical solution:

[0007] An ejector device for stick-throwing ice cream bars includes a conveying mechanism, characterized in that: the conveying mechanism includes an outer shell and a conveyor belt, an ice cream mold is conveyed on the upper surface of the conveyor belt, a feeding mechanism for quickly inserting sticks into the ice cream mold is provided on the upper surface of the front set of the outer shells, a positioning mechanism is provided on the upper surface of the rear set of the outer shells, a support mechanism is provided on the front of the front set of the outer shells, a fixing mechanism is installed on one side of the support mechanism, and a limit mechanism is provided inside the feeding mechanism.

[0008] Furthermore, the feeding mechanism includes an electric telescopic rod one, the output end of which is equipped with a fixing block. A cross-shaped fixing plate is rotatably connected to the outer surface of the fixing block. Fixing plates are provided on the front, back, left, and right sides of the cross-shaped fixing plate. The upper surface of each of the four sets of fixing plates has a groove. An electric telescopic rod two is provided inside each of the four sets of fixing plate grooves. A connecting plate is installed at the output end of each of the four sets of electric telescopic rod two. Multiple positioning slots are provided on the upper surface of each of the four sets of fixing plates. Ice popsicles are engaged inside the multiple positioning slots of each of the four sets of fixing plates. The ice cream mold is located at the lower end of the rotation path of the four sets of fixing plates. The lower surface of each of the four sets of fixing plates has a slot. A contact switch is provided inside each of the four sets of fixing plate slots. The four sets of contact switches are electrically connected to the control ends of the four sets of electric telescopic rod two.

[0009] Furthermore, the support mechanism includes an L-shaped connecting plate, which is installed on the upper surface of the front set of the outer casings. A hydraulic cylinder is provided on the upper surface of the L-shaped connecting plate, and a support plate is installed at the output end of the hydraulic cylinder. The upper surface of the support plate abuts against the lower surface of the cross-shaped fixing plate.

[0010] Furthermore, the fixing mechanism includes a first connecting block and a second connecting block. The second connecting block is installed on the left side of the support plate, and a connecting rod is provided on the lower surface of the second connecting block. The first connecting block is installed on the side of the L-shaped connecting plate near the second connecting block, and a through hole is provided on the upper surface of the first connecting block. The bottom end of the connecting rod is slidably connected inside the through hole of the first connecting block.

[0011] Furthermore, the limiting mechanism includes a screw, a threaded hole is provided on the upper surface of the fixing block, the external thread of the screw is connected to the inside of the threaded hole of the fixing block, a limiting rod is provided on the upper surface of the screw, and the lower surface of the limiting rod abuts against the upper surface of the cross-shaped fixing plate.

[0012] Furthermore, the positioning mechanism includes an L-shaped fixing plate, the upper surface of which has a slot, and the inner walls of the front and rear sides of the slot of the L-shaped fixing plate have through holes. The two sets of through holes of the L-shaped fixing plate are rotatably connected to a bidirectional threaded rod, and the external threads of the bidirectional threaded rod are connected to two sets of sliding plates. The lower surfaces of the two sets of sliding plates are each equipped with a positioning plate. The front of the bidirectional threaded rod is provided with a handle, and the adjacent sides of the two sets of positioning plates respectively abut against the front and rear sides of the ice cream mold.

[0013] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0014] 1. This utility model moves a set of fixing plates to the top of an ice cream mold by rotating a cross-shaped fixing plate. Then, by activating an electric telescopic rod, a set of fixing plates and multiple sets of popsicles are moved. The lower surface of a set of contact switches at the bottom of the fixing plate abuts against the upper surface of the ice cream mold, causing the contact switches to trigger the electric telescopic rod to move the connecting plate. This allows multiple sets of popsicles to slide down and engage with the upper end of the conveyor belt under gravity, thus conveying them into the ice cream mold. This completes the process of pushing multiple sets of popsicles into the ice cream mold and into multiple sets of ice cream.

[0015] 2. This utility model uses a rotating handle to trigger a bidirectional threaded rod, which moves two sets of sliding plates and two sets of positioning plates. The adjacent sides of the two sets of positioning plates abut against the front and rear sides of the ice cream mold, respectively. This allows the subsequent positioning mechanism to restrict the conveying path of the ice cream mold on the upper end of the conveyor belt, thereby minimizing the possibility of the ice cream mold shifting during the conveying process and improving the stability of the ice cream mold during the conveying process.

Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this utility model.

[0025] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, a device for ejecting sticks for bar-shaped ice cream includes a conveying mechanism 1. The conveying mechanism 1 includes a housing 101 and a conveyor belt 102. An ice cream mold 7 is conveyed on the upper surface of the conveyor belt 102. A feeding mechanism 2 for quickly inserting sticks into the ice cream mold 7 is provided on the upper surface of the front set of housings 101. A positioning mechanism 3 is provided on the upper surface of the rear set of housings 101. A support mechanism 4 is provided on the front of the front set of housings 101. A fixing mechanism 5 is installed on one side of the support mechanism 4. A limiting mechanism 6 is provided inside the feeding mechanism 2.

[0026] Specifically, by activating the feeding mechanism 2, multiple sets of popsicles are moved, causing them to slide down and engage with the ice cream molds 7 at the top of the conveyor belt 102 under gravity, thus completing the ice cream production. The subsequent feeding mechanism 2 can continuously drive multiple sets of popsicles to be inserted into the ice cream molds 7, allowing the feeding mechanism 2 to feed simultaneously during the unloading process, thereby shortening the time spent on ice cream production and improving the practicality of the device.

[0027] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the feeding mechanism 2 includes an electric telescopic rod 201. A fixing block 207 is installed at the output end of the electric telescopic rod 201. A cross-shaped fixing plate 202 is rotatably connected to the outer surface of the fixing block 207. Fixing plates 204 are provided on all four sides of the cross-shaped fixing plate 202. Grooves are formed on the upper surfaces of the four sets of fixing plates 204. Electric telescopic rods 203 are installed inside the grooves of the four sets of fixing plates 204. Connecting rods are installed at the output ends of the four sets of electric telescopic rods 203. The upper surfaces of the four fixing plates 204 and the connecting plate 205 are provided with multiple positioning slots. Ice pops are locked inside the multiple positioning slots of the four fixing plates 204. The ice cream mold 7 is located at the lower end of the rotation path of the four fixing plates 204. The lower surfaces of the four fixing plates 204 are provided with slots. The slots of the four fixing plates 204 are provided with contact switches 206. The four contact switches 206 are electrically connected to the control ends of the four electric telescopic rods 203 respectively.

[0028] Specifically, by rotating the cross-shaped fixing plate 202, a set of fixing plates 204 is moved to the top of the ice cream mold 7. Then, by activating the electric telescopic rod 201, the set of fixing plates 204 and multiple sets of popsicles are moved. The lower surface of a set of contact switches 206 at the bottom of the set of fixing plates 204 is brought into contact with the upper surface of the ice cream mold 7. This causes the contact switches 206 to trigger the electric telescopic rod 203 to push the connecting plate 205 to move. As a result, multiple sets of popsicles slide down and engage with the upper end of the conveyor belt 102 under the action of gravity, thus conveying multiple sets of popsicles into the ice cream mold 7 and into the ice cream.

[0029] Meanwhile, the four sets of fixing plates 204 can continuously drive multiple sets of popsicles to be inserted into the interior of multiple sets of ice cream molds 7, so that the subsequent feeding mechanism 2 can feed simultaneously during the feeding process, thereby shortening the time spent in the subsequent ice cream production process and thus improving the practicality of the device; by driving multiple sets of popsicles to move and engage with the interior of the ice cream molds 7 through the fixing plates 204, the subsequent operators do not need to come into close contact with the ice cream molds 7 during the operation of the device, thus improving the hygiene of the ice cream produced by the ice cream molds 7.

[0030] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the support mechanism 4 includes an L-shaped connecting plate 401, which is installed on the upper surface of the front set of outer shells 101. A hydraulic cylinder 402 is provided on the upper surface of the L-shaped connecting plate 401, and a support plate 403 is installed at the output end of the hydraulic cylinder 402. The upper surface of the support plate 403 abuts against the lower surface of the cross-shaped fixing plate 202. Specifically, when the subsequent operator adjusts the position of the four sets of fixing plates 204, by rotating the cross-shaped fixing plate 202, the left and right sides of the end of the cross-shaped fixing plate 202 close to the support mechanism 4 are adjusted and moved to a position where the left and right sides of the support plate 403 are parallel. This allows the upper set of fixing plates 204 of the ice cream mold 7 to be quickly adjusted and moved to the top of the ice cream mold 7, thereby shortening the time spent by the subsequent operator in adjusting the four sets of fixing plates 204 and thus improving the practicality of the device.

[0031] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the fixing mechanism 5 includes a first connecting block 501 and a second connecting block 503. The second connecting block 503 is installed on the left side of the support plate 403. A connecting rod 502 is provided on the lower surface of the second connecting block 503. The first connecting block 501 is installed on the side of the L-shaped connecting plate 401 near the second connecting block 503. A through hole is opened on the upper surface of the first connecting block 501. The bottom end of the connecting rod 502 is slidably connected to the inside of the through hole of the first connecting block 501. Specifically, by sliding the connecting rod 502 inside the through hole of the first connecting block 501, the subsequent connecting rod 502 and the second connecting block 503 restrict the movement path of the support plate 403 on the upper end of the first connecting block 501, thereby minimizing the risk of the support plate 403 shifting position during movement and causing the hydraulic cylinder 402 to bend, thus improving the service life of the hydraulic cylinder 402.

[0032] like Figure 4As shown, the limiting mechanism 6 includes a screw 601. A threaded hole is formed on the upper surface of the fixing block 207. The external thread of the screw 601 is connected to the inside of the threaded hole in the fixing block 207. A limiting rod 602 is provided on the upper surface of the screw 601, and the lower surface of the limiting rod 602 abuts against the upper surface of the cross-shaped fixing plate 202. Specifically, after the cross-shaped fixing plate 202 is subsequently installed on the outer end of the fixing block 207, rotating the screw 601 causes the lower surface of the limiting rod 602 to abut against the upper surface of the cross-shaped fixing plate 202, thus limiting the movement of the limiting rod 602. The positioning mechanism 6 restricts the rotation position of the cross-shaped fixing plate 202 at the outer end of the fixing block 207, thereby minimizing the possibility of the cross-shaped fixing plate 202 falling off at the outer end of the fixing block 207 during subsequent use, thus improving the stability of the feeding mechanism 2 during use; the cross-shaped fixing plate 202 is rotatably connected to the outer surface of the fixing block 207, so that the cross-shaped fixing plate 202 can be disassembled by pulling it, which facilitates the subsequent cleaning of the four sets of fixing plates 204.

[0033] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the positioning mechanism 3 includes an L-shaped fixing plate 301. The upper surface of the L-shaped fixing plate 301 is provided with a slot. The inner walls of the front and rear sides of the slot of the L-shaped fixing plate 301 are provided with through holes. The two sets of through holes of the L-shaped fixing plate 301 are rotatably connected to a bidirectional threaded rod 304. The external threads of the bidirectional threaded rod 304 are connected to two sets of sliding plates 303. The lower surfaces of the two sets of sliding plates 303 are each equipped with a positioning plate 302. The front of the bidirectional threaded rod 304 is provided with a handle 305. The adjacent sides of the two sets of positioning plates 302 respectively abut against the front and rear sides of the ice cream mold 7.

[0034] Specifically, by rotating the handle 305, the bidirectional threaded rod 304 is triggered to move the two sets of sliding plates 303 and the two sets of positioning plates 302. The adjacent sides of the two sets of positioning plates 302 are respectively placed against the front and rear sides of the ice cream mold 7, so that the subsequent positioning mechanism 3 restricts the conveying path of the ice cream mold 7 on the upper end of the conveyor belt 102, thereby minimizing the deviation of the ice cream mold 7 during the conveying process, thus improving the stability of the ice cream mold 7 during the conveying process.

[0035] In summary: By rotating the cross-shaped fixing plate 202, a set of fixing plates 204 is moved to the top of the ice cream mold 7. Then, by activating the electric telescopic rod 201, the set of fixing plates 204 and multiple sets of popsicles are moved. The lower surface of a set of contact switches 206 at the bottom of the set of fixing plates 204 is brought into contact with the upper surface of the ice cream mold 7. This causes the contact switches 206 to trigger the electric telescopic rod 203 to push the connecting plate 205 to move. Consequently, multiple sets of popsicles slide down and engage with the upper end of the conveyor belt 102 under gravity, thus conveying them into the ice cream mold 7. This completes the process of pushing multiple sets of popsicles into the ice cream mold 7 and into the ice cream. By rotating the cross-shaped fixing plate 202, the left and right sides of the end of the cross-shaped fixing plate 202 closest to the support mechanism 4 are adjusted and moved to a position parallel to the left and right sides of the support plate 403. This allows the set of fixing plates 204 at the top of the ice cream mold 7 to be quickly adjusted and moved to the top of the ice cream mold 7, thereby shortening the time spent by the staff when adjusting and moving the four sets of fixing plates 204.

[0036] Meanwhile, by rotating the screw 601, the lower surface of the limiting rod 602 abuts against the upper surface of the cross-shaped fixing plate 202, so that the subsequent limiting mechanism 6 restricts the rotation position of the cross-shaped fixing plate 202 at the outer end of the fixing block 207, thereby minimizing the possibility of the cross-shaped fixing plate 202 falling off at the outer end of the fixing block 207 during use; by rotating the handle 305, the bidirectional threaded rod 304 is triggered to drive the two sets of sliding plates 303 and the two sets of positioning plates 302 to move, so that the adjacent sides of the two sets of positioning plates 302 abut against the front and rear sides of the ice cream mold 7 respectively, so that the subsequent positioning mechanism 3 restricts the conveying path of the ice cream mold 7 at the upper end of the conveyor belt 102, thereby minimizing the possibility of the ice cream mold 7 shifting during the conveying process.
