Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of solid seasoning processing technology, specifically to a feeding device for solid seasoning production. Background Technology
[0002] Solid seasonings refer to solid compound seasonings made from two or more seasonings as the main raw materials, with or without the addition of auxiliary materials. These include chicken essence, chicken powder seasoning, beef powder seasoning, pork rib powder seasoning, seafood powder seasoning, etc. After the solid seasonings are produced, a feeding device is needed to deliver the processed solid seasonings to the packaging process for subsequent transportation or sale.
[0003] However, existing technologies still have many shortcomings in practical use. For example, traditional solid seasoning feeding methods are often controlled manually. Manual operation is subject to subjective factors, and the dosage of solid seasoning fed each time may have a large error. Inaccurate seasoning dosage may affect the quality standards of the seasoning in the later stage, and will also affect the speed of the entire production process and increase the production cost of seasoning. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a feeding device for the production of solid seasonings, which solves the problem that the existing technology cannot perform automatic and precise feeding, and that manual feeding leads to inaccurate dosage and large errors.
[0005] This utility model provides the following technical solution: a feeding device for producing solid seasonings, including a receiving port, a discharge pipe being connected through the bottom end of the receiving port, a blocking block for blocking the seasoning discharge being provided inside the receiving port, a lifting mechanism for raising and lowering the blocking block being provided inside the discharge pipe, and a valve mechanism for controlling the amount of seasoning being fed in being provided at the bottom end of the discharge pipe.
[0006] As a preferred embodiment of the above technical solution, a connecting flange is fitted on the outer wall of the top of the receiving port, and a snap-fit groove is provided at the bottom of the inner wall of the receiving port.
[0007] The above technical solution facilitates the connection between the receiving port and the storage tank by connecting the flange to the outlet of the seasoning storage tank. The internal part of the snap-fit groove and the receiving port is set to be arc-shaped, which makes it easier for the rubber ring to be better disengaged or snapped into the inside of the snap-fit groove.
[0008] As a preferred embodiment of the above technical solution, an installation groove is provided on one side of the outer wall of the discharge pipe, and a discharge port is provided at the bottom end of the discharge pipe.
[0009] The above technical solution allows for easy installation of servo motors via the mounting slot and convenient delivery of seasonings to the seasoning packaging process via the discharge port.
[0010] As a preferred embodiment of the above technical solution, a rubber ring is fitted at the bottom of the outer wall of the blocking block, and the surface of the rubber ring is snapped into the inside of the snap-fit groove. A connecting rod is fixedly connected to the bottom of the inside of the blocking block, and a vibration motor is installed at the top of the inside of the blocking block through an opening groove.
[0011] The above technical solution uses a blocking block to block or open the internal discharge channel of the receiving port, facilitating the discharge of seasonings from the receiving port or allowing them to remain inside. The rubber ring is made of flexible rubber, which allows it to better seal the discharge channel inside the receiving port when it is engaged with the receiving groove. Vibration is generated by energizing a vibration motor, which facilitates better discharge of seasonings from the receiving port and prevents the seasonings from accumulating in the discharge channel during the discharge process.
[0012] As a preferred embodiment of the above technical solution, the lifting mechanism includes a lead screw and a servo motor. The lead screw is rotatably mounted inside the discharge pipe via a mounting plate. A limit rod is fixedly mounted inside the discharge pipe near the lead screw via the mounting plate. A threaded sleeve seat is fitted onto the surface of the lead screw and the limit rod. The end of the threaded sleeve seat away from the limit rod is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the connecting rod. The servo motor is fixedly mounted inside the mounting groove. The output end of the servo motor is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the lead screw via a shaft.
[0013] The above technical solution involves starting a servo motor to drive the lead screw to rotate. The rotating lead screw causes the lead sleeve seat to move upward on the surface of the lead screw and the limit rod. The upward-moving lead sleeve seat drives the blocking block and the rubber ring to move upward through the connecting rod, which facilitates the rubber ring to disengage from the inside of the dispensing groove, thereby opening the discharge channel inside the receiving port.
[0014] As a preferred embodiment of the above technical solution, the valve mechanism includes a rotating rod, which is rotatably installed at the bottom end inside the discharge pipe. A valve plate is fitted onto the surface of the rotating rod, and a weighing sensor is installed on the top of the valve plate through an opening slot. A weighing plate is fixedly installed on the top of the weighing sensor.
[0015] The above technical solution facilitates the entry of seasonings into the discharge pipe through the discharge channel opened inside the receiving port. The seasonings fall onto the top of the weighing plate, allowing for weighing of the seasonings by the weighing plate and the weighing sensor. The weighing sensor then transmits the weight signal to the main controller. The main controller calculates the received weight signal data. Once the calculated data reaches the preset weight value, the main controller controls the servo motor to start again via a signal device. This allows the blocking block and rubber ring to move downwards and engage with the inside of the engaging groove, thus closing the discharge channel inside the receiving port and achieving precise seasoning dispensing.
[0016] As a preferred embodiment of the above technical solution, a first half gear is fixedly connected to one end of the rotating rod extending into the discharge pipe, and a drive motor is fixedly installed on one side of the outer wall of the discharge pipe through a mounting plate. The output end of the drive motor is fitted with a second half gear through a shaft, and the surface of the second half gear meshes with the surface of the first half gear.
[0017] Through the above technical solution, when the weight of the seasoning inside the discharge pipe reaches the preset value of the dispensing dosage, the drive motor is started to drive the second half gear to rotate. The rotating second half gear drives the first half gear to rotate. The rotating first half gear drives the valve plate to flip inside the discharge pipe through the rotating rod, which facilitates the opening of the discharge channel inside the discharge pipe. The flipped valve plate drives the weighing plate to flip, which facilitates the seasoning weighed on the top of the weighing plate to be delivered to the seasoning packaging process through the discharge channel and discharge port, thus realizing the function of precise automatic dispensing of seasoning.
[0018] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0019] This invention connects the inlet to the outlet of the seasoning storage tank, facilitating the entry of seasoning from the storage tank into the inlet. A blocking block and lifting mechanism allow for the opening and closing of the outlet channel. Once open, the outlet channel allows seasoning to enter the outlet pipe. A valve mechanism weighs the seasoning in the outlet pipe, and the weighed seasoning is then fed into the packaging process through the outlet channel opened by the valve mechanism. This achieves precise automatic seasoning dispensing, solving the problem of inaccurate dosage caused by manual dispensing and reducing seasoning production costs. Attached Figure Description

[0025] The technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present invention.
[0026] like Figures 1-4As shown, this utility model provides a technical solution: a feeding device for solid seasoning production, including a receiving port 1. A connecting flange 101 is fitted on the outer wall of the top of the receiving port 1, which is connected to the outlet of a seasoning storage tank through the connecting flange 101, facilitating the through connection between the receiving port 1 and the storage tank, and allowing the seasoning inside the storage tank to enter the interior of the receiving port 1. A retaining groove 102 is formed at the bottom end of the inner wall of the receiving port 1, and a discharge pipe 2 is connected through to the bottom end of the receiving port 1. An installation groove 201 is formed on one side of the outer wall of the discharge pipe 2, and a discharge outlet 202 is formed through the bottom end of the discharge pipe 2. The discharge pipe 2 has an internal blocking block 3 for blocking the seasoning discharge. A rubber ring 301 is fitted to the bottom of the outer wall of the blocking block 3. The surface of the rubber ring 301 is snapped into the inside of the snap-fit groove 102. A connecting rod 302 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the inside of the blocking block 3. A vibration motor 303 is installed at the top of the inside of the blocking block 3 through an opening. The discharge pipe 2 has an internal lifting mechanism 4 for raising and lowering the blocking block 3. The lifting mechanism 4 includes a lead screw 401 and a servo motor 404. The lead screw 401 is rotatably mounted inside the discharge pipe 2 via a mounting plate. The side of the discharge pipe 2 closest to the lead screw 401 is open to… A limit rod 402 is fixedly installed via an mounting plate. A threaded sleeve seat 403 is fitted onto the surface of the lead screw 401 and the limit rod 402. The end of the threaded sleeve seat 403 away from the limit rod 402 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the connecting rod 302. A servo motor 404 is fixedly installed inside the mounting groove 201. The output end of the servo motor 404 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the lead screw 401 via a shaft. By starting the servo motor 404, the lead screw 401 is driven to rotate. The rotating lead screw 401 drives the threaded sleeve seat 403 to move upward on the surface of the lead screw 401 and the limit rod 402. The upwardly moving threaded sleeve seat 403 is connected to the connecting rod. 302 drives the blocking block 3 and rubber ring 301 to move upward, so that the rubber ring 301 can disengage from the inside of the dispensing slot 102, thereby opening the discharge channel inside the receiving port 1. When the discharge channel is opened, the servo motor 404 is turned off, so that the blocking block 3 can stay inside the discharge pipe 2. At the same time, the vibration motor 303 is started to drive the blocking block 3 to vibrate. Due to its own weight and the vibration of the blocking block 3, the seasoning inside the receiving port 1 enters the inside of the discharge pipe 2 from the opened discharge channel, so that the seasoning inside the discharge pipe 2 can fall to the top of the weighing plate 504, realizing the function of precise feeding of seasoning.
[0027] As one implementation method in this embodiment, such as Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 4As shown, a valve mechanism 5 for controlling the dosage of seasoning is installed at the bottom of the discharge pipe 2. The valve mechanism 5 includes a rotating rod 501, which is rotatably installed at the bottom of the discharge pipe 2. A valve plate 502 is fitted onto the surface of the rotating rod 501. A weighing sensor 503 is installed at the top of the valve plate 502 through an opening slot. A weighing plate 504 is fixedly installed at the top of the weighing sensor 503. A first half-gear 505 is fixedly connected to one end of the rotating rod 501 extending into the discharge pipe 2. A drive motor 506 is fixedly installed on one side of the outer wall of the discharge pipe 2 through a mounting plate. A second half-gear 507 is fitted onto the output end of the drive motor 506 through a shaft. The surface of the second half-gear 507 meshes with the surface of the first half-gear 505. The weighing plate 504 and the weighing sensor 503 weigh the seasoning, and the weighing sensor 503 transmits the weight electrical signal to the main controller. It should be noted that the weighing sensor 503 communicates with the main controller through a signal transmitter. The signal connection is established. The main controller calculates the received weight signal data. Once the calculated data reaches the preset weight value, the main controller controls the servo motor 404 to start again via the signal controller. This allows the blocking block 3 and the rubber ring 301 to move downwards and engage with the inside of the engaging groove 102, facilitating the closure of the discharge channel inside the receiving port 1. When the weight of the seasoning inside the discharge pipe 2 reaches the preset dosage value, the drive motor 506 is started to drive the second half gear 507 to rotate. The rotating second half gear 507 drives the first half gear 505 to rotate. The rotating first half gear 505 drives the valve plate 502 to flip inside the discharge pipe 2 via the rotating rod 501, facilitating the opening of the discharge channel inside the discharge pipe 2. The flipped valve plate 502 drives the weighing plate 504 to flip as well, allowing the seasoning weighed at the top of the weighing plate 504 to be delivered to the seasoning packaging process through the discharge channel and discharge port 202, thus realizing the function of precise automatic seasoning dispensing.
[0028] It should be noted that the vibration motor 303, servo motor 404, weighing sensor 503 and drive motor 506 are all connected to the main controller of the seasoning production device through a signal transmitter, so that the main controller can control the automatic operation of the seasoning production device.
[0029] Working Principle: In use, the flange 101 is first connected to the outlet of the seasoning storage tank, facilitating a through connection between the inlet 1 and the storage tank. This allows the seasoning from inside the storage tank to enter the inlet 1. When solid seasoning needs to be added, the servo motor 404 is activated to rotate the lead screw 401. The rotating lead screw 401 causes the threaded sleeve 403 to move upwards on the surface of the lead screw 401 and the limiting rod 402. The upward movement of the threaded sleeve 403, through the connecting rod 302, causes the blocking block 3 and the rubber ring 301 to move upwards, allowing the rubber ring 301 to disengage from the outlet groove 102, thus opening the discharge channel inside the inlet 1. Once the discharge channel is open, the servo motor 404 is turned off, allowing the blocking block 3 to remain inside the discharge pipe 2. Simultaneously, the vibration motor 303 is activated to drive the blocking block 3 further into the discharge channel. Vibration occurs, and the seasoning inside the receiving port 1 enters the discharge pipe 2 from the open discharge channel due to its own weight and the vibration of the blocking block 3. This facilitates the seasoning falling into the top of the weighing plate 504, where the weight of the seasoning is weighed by the weighing plate 504 and the weighing sensor 503. The weighing sensor 503 then transmits the weight electrical signal to the main controller. It should be noted that the weighing sensor 503 is connected to the main controller via a signal transmitter. The main controller calculates the received weight signal data. Once the calculated data reaches the preset weight value, the main controller controls the servo motor 404 to start again via the signal transmitter. This allows the blocking block 3 and the rubber ring 301 to move downwards and engage with the inside of the engaging groove 102, thus closing the discharge channel inside the receiving port 1 and achieving the function of precise seasoning feeding.
[0030] When the weight of the seasoning inside the discharge pipe 2 reaches the preset value of the dispensing dosage, the drive motor 506 is started to drive the second half gear 507 to rotate. The rotating second half gear 507 drives the first half gear 505 to rotate. The rotating first half gear 505 drives the valve plate 502 to flip inside the discharge pipe 2 through the rotating rod 501, which facilitates the opening of the discharge channel inside the discharge pipe 2. The flipped valve plate 502 drives the weighing plate 504 to flip, which facilitates the seasoning weighed on the top of the weighing plate 504 to be delivered to the seasoning packaging process through the discharge channel and the discharge port 202, thus realizing the function of precise automatic dispensing of seasoning.
[0031] The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solution of this utility model, and are not intended to limit it.
