Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to a vermicelli bending and pushing mechanism and a vermicelli bundling device, belonging to the field of vermicelli bundling technology. Background Technology

[0002] Vermicelli is a common food in China. It is a kind of shredded food made from mung bean starch, sweet potato starch, etc. In order to facilitate the packaging of vermicelli, the prepared vermicelli needs to be bent. Usually, it is bent twice, bending from both sides to the middle to form a three-fold structure. After bending, it is tied into a small bundle with string and then put into a bag.

[0003] Manual bending and bundling is inefficient and suffers from inconsistent bundling quality and poor appearance due to human factors. Therefore, a bend and bundling device for rice noodles has been developed. For example, utility model patent CN212829546U discloses a rice noodle bundling device. This device uses a first-bend pushing mechanism to bend the first rice noodle segment 10 towards the second rice noodle segment 20, making the first rice noodle segment fit against the top of the second rice noodle segment. Then, the first-bend pushing mechanism continues to move towards the second-bend guiding mechanism, pushing the third rice noodle segment 30 below the second-bend guiding mechanism. At this point, an ejector mechanism pushes the rice noodles to the knotter for bundling. During the pushing process, the second-bend guiding mechanism presses the third rice noodle segment onto the first rice noodle segment, forming a three-fold rice noodle bundle, achieving automatic bending and bundling of the rice noodles. Compared to manual bending, this method is not only more efficient but also produces a more aesthetically pleasing bundle of rice noodles with better bundling quality.

[0004] However, the device still has the following shortcomings. The bend position of the rice noodles is a flat plate located below the two guide rollers. The flat plate extends to the knotter position. Therefore, the pushing mechanism of the device can smoothly push the rice noodles on the flat plate to the corresponding knotter position. The pushing mechanism includes a third telescopic mechanism and a push rod. The push rod can abut against the bend between the first rice noodle section 10 and the second rice noodle section 20 to push the rice noodles. The setting of the pushing mechanism makes the structure of the rice noodle bundling device more complicated, which not only increases the cost, but also makes the control program of the equipment complicated and consumes a lot of energy. In addition, after the push plate of the first bending push mechanism of the device bends the first vermicelli segment 10 toward the direction of the second vermicelli segment 20, it will continue to move forward and push the third vermicelli segment 30 to the bottom of the second bending guide mechanism. When the push plate pushes the bend vermicelli in front of the first bending guide mechanism, the push plate is inserted between the third vermicelli segment and the first vermicelli segment. Because the vermicelli is stiff, when the push plate needs to be reset, it will pull the vermicelli. If the push rod of the push mechanism does not hold the vermicelli, some vermicelli will become loose, affecting the binding quality of the vermicelli. In addition, the vermicelli is placed on a flat plate, which may even cause the vermicelli to move backward as a whole, affecting the placement of the next vermicelli segment, and ultimately affecting the binding efficiency of the vermicelli. Utility Model Content

[0005] This utility model addresses the shortcomings of existing technologies by providing a fan bending and pushing mechanism and a fan bundling device.

[0006] The technical solution of this utility model to solve the above-mentioned technical problems is as follows: A vermicelli bending and pushing mechanism includes a frame, a vermicelli carrying part disposed on the frame, and a bending and pushing mechanism. The bending and pushing mechanism includes a push plate and a driving mechanism for driving the push plate to move back and forth. The vermicelli carrying part includes a first carrying plate disposed sequentially at the vermicelli bending position along the vermicelli walking direction, a second carrying plate disposed at the vermicelli bundling position, and a third carrying part for outputting vermicelli bundles. The first carrying plate is connected to the frame, and the front end of the first carrying plate is higher than the rear end of the second carrying plate.

[0007] Compared with the prior art, this utility model has the following advantages: First, it eliminates the push-out mechanism, reducing the equipment cost of the vermicelli bundling device and simplifying the equipment structure; Second, the bent vermicelli has good flexibility and can smoothly pass through the first support plate under the action of the push plate. After passing through the first support plate, since the front end of the first support plate is higher than the rear end of the second support plate, the front end of the first support plate can abut against the rear end of the bent vermicelli. At this time, the push plate resets and moves back, and the vermicelli will not move, ensuring the bending quality of the vermicelli and the bundling quality of subsequent vermicelli bundles; Third, the push plate can push the previous vermicelli bundle out of the bundling position during the bending process, eliminating the need for a push-out mechanism and shortening the overall bundling time.

[0008] Based on the above technical solution, the present invention can be further improved as follows.

[0009] Furthermore, the front end of the first bearing plate is a free end, and the first bearing plate is an elastic plate.

[0010] The beneficial effect of adopting the above-mentioned further solution is that the first support plate is an elastic plate, the front end of which is higher than the rear end of the second support plate. The elastic plate is elastic, and when the fans pass through, the free end of the elastic plate will float down and almost be level with the second support plate, so as not to hinder the forward movement of the fans under the action of the push plate. After the fans pass through the elastic plate, the free end of the elastic plate floats up and bounces up higher than the rear end of the second support plate, which will stop the rear end of the fans. In this way, even if the push plate moves backward, it will not cause the fans or some of the fans to move backward, ensuring the bending of the fans and the quality of subsequent bundling.

[0011] Furthermore, the front end of the first support plate is a floating end, and a floating mechanism is provided at the lower part of the floating end, the floating mechanism including a support spring.

[0012] The beneficial effect of adopting the above-mentioned further solution is that the front end of the first support plate can be designed as a floating end, and the support spring can support the floating end of the first support plate, so that the floating end of the first support plate floats down under the pressure of the rice noodles and is almost level with the second support plate, and will not obstruct the forward movement of the rice noodles. After the rice noodles pass through the first support plate, the floating end of the first support plate floats up and bounces higher than the rear end of the second support plate, which can block the rear end of the rice noodles that have passed through. In this way, even if the push plate moves backward, the rice noodles will not shift, ensuring the bending and bundling quality of the rice noodles.

[0013] Furthermore, the front part of the first support plate is provided with a floating section, and the floating section is connected to the first support plate by a torsion spring.

[0014] The beneficial effect of adopting the above-mentioned further solution is that the first support plate can also be designed with a floating section at its front. The torsion spring can provide floating elasticity for the floating section. When the fans pass through the floating section, the floating section floats down under the pressure of the fans and will be almost level with the second support plate, which will not hinder the forward movement of the fans. After the fans pass through the floating section, the floating section will float up under the action of the torsion spring and lift the rear end of the second support plate at its front end, which can resist the rear end of the fans. In this way, even if the push plate moves backward, the fans will not shift, ensuring the bending and bundling quality of the fans.

[0015] Furthermore, it also includes a limiting member located below the center of the first bearing plate, the limiting member being disposed on the frame.

[0016] The beneficial effect of adopting the above-mentioned further solution is that the limiting component can be a limiting rod, a limiting block, etc., which can limit the downward floating position of the first bearing plate. When the first bearing plate is an elastic plate, the downward floating position of the first bearing plate can be limited by the limiting component located in the lower middle part, so as to avoid the first bearing plate from floating too much.

[0017] Furthermore, the first support plate is connected to the frame via a mounting plate.

[0018] The advantage of adopting the above-mentioned further solution is that the connection between the first load-bearing plate and the frame can be achieved through the mounting plate.

[0019] Furthermore, the first support plate is connected to the frame via a mounting plate, and a pad is provided between the first support plate and the mounting plate.

[0020] The beneficial effect of adopting the above-mentioned further solution is that, in addition to the mounting plate between the first bearing plate and the frame, a pad can also be set between the mounting plate and the first bearing plate. On the one hand, it is more convenient to adjust the height of the first bearing plate by means of the pad, and on the other hand, it reduces the wear between the first bearing plate and the mounting plate.

[0021] Furthermore, the third supporting part is a fan output cylinder, a fan output slot, or a fan output plate.

[0022] The advantage of adopting the above-mentioned further solution is that the third bearing part can be selected according to the actual needs. For example, it can be a fan output tube, a cylindrical structure; or it can be a fan output trough, a trough structure, such as a U-shaped trough; or it can be a fan output plate, a plate-shaped structure, as long as it can complete the output of fan bundles.

[0023] Furthermore, a baffle is provided at the front end of the first support plate.

[0024] The beneficial effect of adopting the above-mentioned further solution is that the baffle can increase the working area of ​​the front end of the first bearing plate against the rear end of the fan, which can better prevent the fan from moving backward.

[0025] Furthermore, the first support plate is mounted on the frame in an adjustable position.

[0026] The advantage of adopting the above-mentioned further solution is that the installation position of the first support plate on the frame is adjustable, so that the position of the first support plate can be adjusted according to the size of the vermicelli bundle, so as to be able to bend and bundle vermicelli of more different specifications.

[0027] This utility model also relates to a rice noodle bundling device, including the rice noodle bending and pushing mechanism described above.

[0028] Compared with the prior art, this utility model has the following advantages: First, it eliminates the push-out mechanism, reducing the equipment cost of the vermicelli bundling device, simplifying the equipment structure, and thus improving the reliability of the equipment. Second, the bent vermicelli has good flexibility and can smoothly pass through the first support plate under the action of the push plate. After passing through the first support plate, since the front end of the first support plate is higher than the rear end of the second support plate, the front end of the first support plate can abut against the rear end of the bent vermicelli. At this time, the push plate resets and moves back, and the vermicelli will not move, ensuring the bending quality of the vermicelli and the bundling quality of subsequent vermicelli bundles. Third, the push plate can push the previous vermicelli bundle out of the bundling position during the bending process, eliminating the need for a push-out mechanism, shortening the overall bundling time, and improving the efficiency of vermicelli bundling.

[0037] The principles and features of this utility model are described below with reference to examples. The examples are only used to explain this utility model and are not intended to limit the scope of this utility model.

[0038] Example 1, as Figures 1-3 As shown, a vermicelli bending and pushing mechanism includes a frame, a vermicelli carrying part disposed on the frame, and a bending forward pushing mechanism. The bending forward pushing mechanism includes a push plate 5 and a driving mechanism for driving the push plate 5 to move back and forth. The vermicelli carrying part includes a first carrying plate 1 disposed sequentially at the vermicelli bending position along the vermicelli walking direction, a second carrying plate 2 disposed at the vermicelli bundling position, and a third carrying part 3 for outputting vermicelli bundles. The first carrying plate 1 is connected to the frame, and the front end of the first carrying plate 1 is higher than the rear end of the second carrying plate 2.

[0039] The front end of the first support plate 1 is a free end, and the first support plate 1 is an elastic plate. The front end of the first support plate 1 is higher than the rear end of the second support plate 2. The elastic plate is elastic, and when the fans pass through, the free end of the elastic plate will float down and almost be level with the second support plate 2, so as not to hinder the forward movement of the fans under the action of the push plate 5. After the fans pass through the elastic plate, the free end of the elastic plate floats up and bounces up higher than the rear end of the second support plate 2, which will stop the rear end of the fans. In this way, even if the push plate 5 moves backward, it will not cause the fans or part of the fans to move backward, ensuring the bending of the fans and the quality of subsequent bundling.

[0040] The first support plate 1 is connected to the frame via a mounting plate 6. The mounting plate 6 enables the connection between the first support plate 1 and the frame.

[0041] A pad 7 is provided between the first support plate 1 and the mounting plate 6. A pad 7 can also be provided between the mounting plate 6 and the first support plate 1. On the one hand, it is more convenient to adjust the height of the first support plate 1 through the pad 7. On the other hand, it reduces the wear between the first support plate 1 and the mounting plate 6.

[0042] The third support part 3 can be a fan output cylinder, a fan output trough, or a fan output plate. The third support part 3 can be selected according to actual needs, such as a fan output cylinder (cylindrical structure); a fan output trough (trough structure, such as a U-shaped trough); or a fan output plate (plate-shaped structure), as long as it can output bundles of fan. The third support part 3 is mounted on a frame; for example, it can be mounted on a frame via a connecting plate.

[0043] The front end of the first support plate 1 is provided with a baffle 4. The baffle 4 can increase the effective area of ​​the front end of the first support plate 1 abutting against the rear end of the fan, thus better preventing the fan from moving backward.

[0044] The first support plate 1 is mounted on the frame in an adjustable position. The adjustable position of the first support plate 1 on the frame allows for adjustment based on the size of the vermicelli bundles, facilitating the bending and bundling of vermicelli of various sizes. The adjustable position of the first support plate 1 includes both front-to-back and height adjustment, specifically selected according to the size of the vermicelli bundles; for example, the frame or mounting plate 6 has a first adjusting elongated hole for adjusting the front-to-back direction of the first support plate 1; the frame or mounting plate 6 also has a second adjusting elongated hole for adjusting the height direction of the first support plate 1.

[0045] The second support plate 2 is mounted on the frame. The drive mechanism includes a transmission belt 14, a drive wheel 12, a driven wheel 13, and a drive motor 11 for driving the drive wheel 12 to rotate. The transmission belt 14 is wrapped around the drive wheel 12 and the driven wheel 13, and the push plate 5 is connected to the transmission belt 14. The operation of the drive motor 11 can drive the drive wheel 12 to rotate, and the transmission belt 14 to rotate, thereby driving the push plate 5 to move back and forth.

[0046] Example 2, as Figure 4 As shown, it also includes a limiting member 15 located below the center of the first bearing plate 1, and the limiting member 15 is disposed on the frame. The limiting member 15 can be a limiting rod, a limiting block, etc., which can limit the downward floating position of the first bearing plate 1. When the first bearing plate 1 is an elastic plate, the downward floating position of the first bearing plate 1 can be limited by the limiting member 15 located below the center, so as to avoid the first bearing plate 1 from floating too far down and to ensure that the front end of the first bearing plate 1 is flush with the second bearing plate 2 when it is at its lowest floating position.

[0047] Example 3, as Figure 5 As shown, the front end of the first support plate 1 is a floating end, and a floating mechanism is provided at the lower part of the floating end. The floating mechanism includes a support spring 16. The front end of the first support plate 1 can be designed as a floating end, and the support spring 16 can support the floating end of the first support plate 1, so that the floating end of the first support plate 1 floats down under the pressure of the rice noodles, almost level with the second support plate 2, and will not obstruct the forward movement of the rice noodles. After the rice noodles pass through the first support plate 1, the floating end of the first support plate 1 floats up and bounces higher than the rear end of the second support plate 2, which can block the rear end of the passing rice noodles. In this way, even if the push plate 5 moves backward, the rice noodles will not shift, ensuring the bending and bundling quality of the rice noodles. The rest of the structure is the same as in Embodiment 1, and will not be described in detail here.

[0048] Example 4, as Figure 6 As shown, the support spring 16 is mounted on a spring support column, which is disposed on the first bearing plate 1. The spring support column guides the support spring 16. The remaining structure is the same as in Embodiment 3, and will not be described further here.

[0049] Example 5, as Figure 7 As shown, the first support plate 1 has a floating section at its front, which is connected to the first support plate 1 by a torsion spring 17. Alternatively, the first support plate 1 can have a floating section at its front. The torsion spring 17 provides floating elasticity to the floating section. When the rice noodles pass through the floating section, the floating section is lowered by the pressure of the rice noodles and almost level with the second support plate 2, without hindering the movement of the rice noodles. After the rice noodles pass through the floating section, the floating section will bounce upwards under the action of the torsion spring 17, lifting the rear end of the second support plate 2 and resisting the rear end of the rice noodles. This ensures that even if the push plate 5 moves backward, the rice noodles will not shift, guaranteeing the bending and bundling quality of the rice noodles. The remaining structure is the same as in Embodiment 1 and will not be described further here.

[0050] This utility model also relates to a rice noodle bundling device, including the rice noodle bending and pushing mechanism described above.

[0051] The working process of this utility model is as follows: A bundle of vermicelli is combed into a long strip and placed on the vermicelli placement position, that is, above the first support plate 1. Under the program control, at least one pressure rod 9 of the bundling device moves down to press down on the vermicelli, pressing the vermicelli at the vermicelli bending position, and folding the vermicelli into two or three sections, such as... Figure 3As shown, the vermicelli is pressed into a U-shaped structure. The pusher plate 5 moves forward, pressing the first vermicelli segment 10 onto the second vermicelli segment 20. The pusher plate 5 continues to move forward, and the third vermicelli segment 30 bends onto the first vermicelli segment 10 under the action of another pressure rod 9 or pressure plate 8. When the vermicelli is completely in a tri-fold state, the pusher plate continues to move forward, allowing the tri-fold vermicelli to reach the binding position. During the pushing process of the pusher plate 5, the front end of the first support plate 1 floats down under the pressure of the vermicelli, almost level with the second support plate, and does not obstruct the movement of the vermicelli.

[0052] When the noodles reach the noodle-tying position, the first support plate 1 bounces up under the action of the elastic plate or floating mechanism, or the floating section at the front of the first support plate 1 bounces up, blocking the rear end of the three-fold noodles. Before tying the noodles, the push plate 5 needs to be pulled out first. Since the front end of the first support plate 1 blocks the three-fold noodles at this time, the noodles will not shift even if the push plate 5 is pulled out.

[0053] During the removal of the first support plate 1, the bundling device has already completed bundling the vermicelli. The bundle of vermicelli awaits the next three-folded vermicelli to push it over the bundling position and remove it from the bundling device, and the cycle continues.

[0054] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
