Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of paper cup production technology, specifically to a paper cup production material discharge structure. Background Technology

[0002] Paper cups are paper containers made by mechanically processing and bonding paper made from chemical wood pulp. They are cup-shaped and coated with wax for use with frozen foods. They can hold ice cream, jam, butter, etc. Sterilization is a very important step in the production process of paper cups. Paper cups are very popular in public places, restaurants and eateries because they are safe, hygienic, lightweight and convenient.

[0003] Chinese invention patent CN202323495511.9 discloses a sterilization device for paper cup production, including an operating table. A sterilization mechanism is installed at the upper end of the operating table. The sterilization mechanism includes a sliding rail fixedly connected to the upper end of the operating table, a sliding frame slidably connected to the outer side of the sliding rail, a support platform fixedly connected to the rear end of the sliding frame, a placement block fixedly connected to the upper end of the support platform, and another set of support frames fixedly connected to the upper end of the sliding rail. This invention discloses a sterilization device for paper cup production. By sequentially securing paper cups to the outer side of the placement block and then rotating the transmission shaft, the support platform drives the sliding frame to slide along the sliding rail, moving the support platform below the ultraviolet lamp. This facilitates the application of ultraviolet light to the surface of the paper cups, ensuring that each set of paper cups receives sufficient ultraviolet irradiation, thus avoiding the stacking of paper cups for sterilization and improving sterilization efficiency.

[0004] The device lacks a discharge structure. After sterilization, the inverted paper cups need to be manually turned over and stacked, which is time-consuming, labor-intensive, and reduces work efficiency.

[0005] Therefore, a paper cup production discharge structure is proposed. Utility Model Content

The diameter is determined by rotating the threaded rod 2, which drives the moving table 3 to move to the right. When the moving table 3 moves to the bottom of the sterilization rack 6, the sterilization rack 6 releases ultraviolet light to irradiate the paper cup body 5 and sterilize its inner wall. After the sterilization is completed, the moving table 3 continues to move to the right, so that the bottom of the rightmost paper cup body 5 is aligned with the push rod 11. The hydraulic rod 12 is activated to drive the push plate 10 upward. The push rod 11 pushes the paper cup body 5 up to the discharge rack 7. The double-acting screw 8 is rotated to bring the two clamping plates 9 closer to each other. The inner wall taper of the clamping plates is matched with the paper cup body 5. The clamping plates 9 fix the middle of the outer wall of the paper cup body 5. When the second group of paper cup bodies 5 is pushed up by the push rod 11, the clamping plates 9 move away from each other. The first group of paper cup bodies 5 falls into the second group of paper cup bodies 5. The second group of paper cup bodies 5 continues to rise and is clamped by the clamping plates 9 again. This process is repeated to automatically stack and organize the paper cups without manual operation, saving time and effort and improving work efficiency.

[0025] In this embodiment, specifically: a first motor 13 is installed on the right side wall of the workbench 1, and the output end of the first motor 13 is fixedly connected to the right end of the threaded rod 2; a second motor 14 is installed on the right side wall of the discharge rack 7, and the output end of the second motor 14 is fixedly connected to the right end of the bidirectional lead screw 8; the first motor 13 is used to drive the threaded rod 2 to rotate forward and backward, and the second motor 14 is used to drive the bidirectional lead screw 8 to rotate forward and backward.

[0026] In this embodiment, specifically: the upper surface of the discharge rack 7 is fixedly connected with evenly distributed limiting rods 15; when there are many paper cup bodies 5 stacked, the limiting rods 15 can support and guide the paper cup bodies 5, reducing the occurrence of tipping.

[0027] In this embodiment, specifically: a pair of guide grooves 16 are provided on the inner side wall of the worktable 1, and the inner side wall of the guide grooves 16 is slidably connected to the outer side wall of the moving platform 3; the guide grooves 16 are used to support the moving platform 3 and improve the movement stability.

[0028] In this embodiment, specifically: a pair of sliding grooves 17 are provided on the inner side wall of the discharge rack 7, and the inner side wall of the sliding groove 17 is slidably connected to the outer side wall of the clamping plate 9; the sliding groove 17 is used to support the clamping plate 9 and improve its movement stability.

[0029] In this embodiment, specifically: the inner wall of the workbench 1 and the inner wall of the disinfection rack 6 are both equipped with uniformly distributed disinfection lamps 18; the disinfection lamps 18 are ultraviolet disinfection lamps, which can disinfect the paper cup body 5 by irradiation.

[0030] In this embodiment, specifically: the lower surface of the workbench 1 is fixedly connected with evenly distributed support legs 19; the support legs 19 are used to support and fix the workbench 1.

[0031] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: In use, multiple paper cup bodies 5 are placed in the placement holes 4, with the cup rim diameter larger than the diameter of the placement hole 4. The first motor 13 is started, causing the threaded rod 2 to drive the moving platform 3 to move to the right. When the moving platform 3 moves below the sterilization rack 6, the upper sterilization lamp 18 irradiates the paper cup body 5 with ultraviolet light to sterilize its inner wall, while the lower sterilization lamp 18 sterilizes its outer wall. After completion, the moving platform 3 continues to move to the right, aligning the bottom of the rightmost row of paper cup bodies 5 with the push rod 11. The hydraulic rod 12 is then activated, driving the push plate 10 upwards, and the push rod 11... The paper cup body 5 is pushed up to the discharge rack 7, and the second motor 14 is started. The two-way lead screw 8 brings the two clamping plates 9 closer to each other. The inner wall tapering of the clamping plates 9 matches the paper cup body 5. The middle part of the outer wall of the paper cup body 5 is fixed by the clamping plates 9. When the second set of paper cup bodies 5 is pushed to the lower surface of the clamping plates 9 by the push rod 11, the clamping plates 9 move away from each other, and the first set of paper cup bodies 5 falls into the second set of paper cup bodies 5. The second set of paper cup bodies 5 continues to rise and is clamped by the clamping plates 9 again at the middle part of the outer wall. This process is repeated to automatically stack and sort the paper cups without manual operation, saving time and effort and improving work efficiency.
