[0038] The above solution will be further described below with reference to specific embodiments. It should be understood that these embodiments are for illustrating the present invention and are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention. The implementation conditions used in the embodiments can be further adjusted according to the conditions of specific manufacturers, and the implementation conditions not specified are usually the conditions in conventional experiments.

[0039] like Figures 1 to 4 The diagram shown is a structural schematic of an embodiment of the present invention. A filling and discharging device is provided, which is installed below the feeding channel 4. The feeding channel 4 is connected to a vibration mechanism, which drives the feeding channel 4 to vibrate so as to transport the material 3 in the storage hopper to the discharging device.

[0040] The aforementioned filling and discharging device includes a counting and discharging mechanism 1 and a gate mechanism 2. The counting and discharging mechanism 1 includes several discharging channels 1-1 and several counting components corresponding to the discharging channels 1-1. Specifically, a photoelectric counting box 1-2 is provided above the discharging channels 1-1, and a counting component corresponding to each discharging channel 1-1 is provided inside the photoelectric counting box 1-2. The counting component uses a photoelectric counting sensor, which is connected to a control unit to transmit the counting signal to the control unit. Each discharging channel 1-1 has an inlet at the upper end and an outlet at the lower end, and the several discharging channels 1-1 are arranged side by side on the guide frame 1-3.

[0041] The gate mechanism 2 is used to control the opening and closing of the discharge port. It includes a support component 2-1, two flaps 2-2 rotatably supported on the support component 2-1 and symmetrically arranged below the discharge port, and a drive assembly that drives the two flaps 2-2 to move closer or further away to realize the closing or opening of the discharge port. When the discharge port is closed, the two flaps 2-2 extend downward at an angle with the vertical direction, which can reduce the frontal collision between the flaps 2-2 and the material 3 and reduce damage to the material 3. When the discharge port is open, the two flaps 2-2 extend vertically so that the material 3 can be filled into the container.

[0042] A rotating shaft 2-8 corresponding to the flip plate 2-2 is rotatably provided on the support component 2-1. The flip plate 2-2 and the rotating shaft 2-8 are fixedly connected at the end near the discharge port. Specifically, a connecting block 2-2a is provided at the end of the flip plate 2-2 near the rotating shaft 2-8. The connecting block 2-2a is fixedly connected to the rotating shaft 2-8 by screws.

[0043] The drive assembly includes a connecting rod 2-3, two connecting pieces 2-6 rotatably connected to both ends of the connecting rod 2-3, two connecting sleeves 2-7 rotatably connected to the two connecting pieces 2-6 respectively, and a drive component 2-4 for driving the connecting rod 2-3 to move up and down. The connecting sleeves 2-7 are rotatably connected to the rotating shafts 2-8. The connecting rod 2-3 is arranged above the two rotating shafts 2-8 and in a horizontal direction. The connecting sleeves 2-7 are fitted on the rotating shafts 2-8. The drive component 2-4 is signal-connected to the control unit.

[0044] The drive component 2-4 uses a cylinder. The cylinder shaft is connected to the connecting rod 2-3 via a universal joint 2-5 to improve the flexibility of the mechanical transmission of the drive component 2-4. The state of the two flaps 2-2 approaching or separating is adjusted and controlled by the stroke of the cylinder to meet the needs of intercepting or releasing materials.

[0045] like Figure 7 and Figure 9 As shown, the support component 2-1 is fixed on the guide frame 1-3, including a first vertical plate 2-1a near the flip plate 2-2, a second vertical plate 2-1b opposite to the first vertical plate 2-1a, and a connecting plate 2-1c connecting the upper ends of the first vertical plate 2-1a and the second vertical plate 2-1b. One end of the rotating shaft 2-8 is rotatably supported on the first vertical plate 2-1a via the first bearing 2-9, and the other end of the rotating shaft 2-8 is rotatably supported on the second vertical plate 2-1b via the second bearing 2-10. The drive component 2-4 is installed on the connecting plate 2-1c.

[0046] To facilitate the installation of the rotating shaft 2-8, a circumferentially arranged limiting part 2-8a is provided at the end of the rotating shaft 2-8 near the flip plate 2-2. The first bearing 2-9 is installed on the first vertical plate 2-1a and abuts against the limiting part 2-8a. A first blocking member 2-11 that cooperates with the limiting part 2-8a is provided in the first vertical plate 2-1a. The second bearing 2-10 is installed on the second vertical plate 2-1b. A second blocking member 2-15 that cooperates with the second bearing 2-10 is provided on the side of the second vertical plate 2-1b near the flip plate 2-2. A bearing pressure plate 2-13 that cooperates with the second bearing 2-10 is provided at the end of the second vertical plate 2-1b away from the flip plate 2-2. A retaining spring 2-14 is provided between the second bearing 2-10 and the rotating shaft 2-8.

[0047] To improve structural stability, limiting spacers 2-12 are provided between connecting sleeve 2-7 and first bearing 2-9 and second bearing 2-10, respectively.

[0048] To further optimize the implementation effect of this utility model, the flip plate 2-2 is provided with multiple comb-like structures arranged in the width direction, which can further reduce damage to the material 3.

[0049] The working principle of this utility model:

[0050] like Figure 8 and Figure 9 As shown, during filling, the two flaps 2-2 are separated and in the open state. Material 3 enters the discharge channel 1-2 through the inlet and exits through the outlet into the container. When the counting component of any discharge channel 1-1 detects the first material 3 in the next container, the counting component transmits a signal to the control unit. The control unit issues a command to close the outlet, driving component 2-4 to move the connecting rod 2-3 upward, the connecting piece 2-6 and the connecting sleeve 2-7 rotate, driving the rotating shaft 2-8 to rotate, and the lower ends of the two flaps 2-2 close together. Figures 5 to 7 As shown, the feeding channel 1-1 is closed; when all containers on the container conveying track are in place, the control unit sends a command to the drive component to open the discharge port and fill the material 3 temporarily stored in the feeding channel 1-1 into the next container.

[0051] In summary, this discharge device can temporarily store the material of a container, reducing damage to the material.

[0052] The above examples are only for illustrating the technical concept and features of this utility model, and are intended to enable those skilled in the art to understand the content of this utility model and implement it accordingly. They should not be used to limit the scope of protection of this utility model. All equivalent changes or modifications made in accordance with the spirit and essence of this utility model should be included within the scope of protection of this utility model.
