Traditional food packaging machines often focus only on the packaging and sealing functions, neglecting the impact of odors and harmful gaseous pollutants generated during the packaging process on the workshop environment and food quality. During food packaging, especially for foods with distinctive odors or that are easily perishable, such as seafood and meat, a large amount of odors and harmful gases are produced. These pollutants not only contaminate the workshop environment and affect the health of workers, but may also cause cross-contamination of other foods, reducing their quality and safety. To address these issues, this technical solution proposes an automatic packaging device for food processing. Utility Model Content
[0003] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a technical solution for an automatic packaging device for food processing, thereby addressing the shortcomings mentioned in the background art.

[0027] The following description is exemplary in nature and is not intended to limit the scope, application, or use of this disclosure. It should be understood that in all these figures, the same or similar reference numerals indicate the same or similar parts and features. The figures are merely schematic representations of the concept and principles of embodiments of this disclosure and do not necessarily show the specific dimensions and scale of each embodiment. Specific details or structures of embodiments of this disclosure may be exaggerated in particular portions of certain figures. The disclosures of various publications, patents, and published patent specifications cited herein are incorporated herein by reference in their entirety. The technical solutions of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with embodiments of this utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of this utility model.
[0028] An automatic packaging device for food processing comprises a food packaging machine 1 and a gas filtration and emission mechanism 2. The food packaging machine 1 includes a base 11, with a protective fence 14 fixed to the top of the base 11. A fast food bucket sealing operation table 12 is located inside the protective fence 14. A food conveyor belt 13, which connects to the fast food bucket sealing operation table 12, is located on the top left side of the base 11. A control panel 15 is fixed to the front surface of the protective fence 14, with a feed inlet at the bottom front side that connects to the fast food bucket sealing operation table 12, and an opening on the right side for the food conveyor belt 13 to pass through.
[0029] The gas filtration and emission mechanism 2 is installed on top of the food packaging machine 1. Its top frame 21 is fixedly connected to the top end face of the protective fence 14. A support plate 22 is fixed inside the top frame 21, and two circular holes are opened inside the support plate 22. The bottom of the outer ring of the collecting cylinder 24 is fixedly connected to the inner side wall of the circular holes. A hemispherical guide hood 23 is fixedly installed on the top of the collecting cylinder 24. The top of the hemispherical guide hood 23 has a through hole for the filter cylinder 28 to pass through and communicate with it. The top of the filter cylinder 28 is fixedly fixed to the hemispherical guide hood 23. A wind duct 26 is installed inside the lower end of the collecting cylinder 24. The outer side wall of the wind duct 26 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the inner side wall of the collecting cylinder 24. A fan 25 is installed inside the wind duct 26, which draws gas from inside the protective fence 14 and transports it upwards. A mesh cover 27 is fixed to the upper end of the air duct 26 to prevent debris in the extracted gas from entering the filter cartridge 28. A bottom magnetic ring 29 is fixed to the bottom of the inner cavity of the filter cartridge 28, and the outer surface of the bottom magnetic ring 29 is fixedly connected to the bottom area of the side wall of the inner cavity of the filter cartridge 28. Activated carbon adsorption cotton 211 is placed at the top of the inner cavity of the filter cartridge 28, and the outer surface of the activated carbon adsorption cotton 211 is in close contact with the upper side wall of the inner cavity of the filter cartridge 28. A top magnetic ring 210 is fixed to the bottom surface of the activated carbon adsorption cotton 211, and the top magnetic ring 210 is magnetically connected to the bottom magnetic ring 29, which facilitates the replacement and cleaning of the activated carbon adsorption cotton 211.
[0030] Example 1: During the food packaging process, the blower 25 is activated. The blower 25 draws gas from inside the protective enclosure 14 through the air duct 26. After the gas passes through the mesh cover 27 to remove debris, it enters the collection cylinder 24, and then passes through the hemispherical guide hood 23 into the filter cylinder 28. In the filter cylinder 28, the gas is adsorbed and filtered by the activated carbon adsorption cotton 211, removing odors and harmful gases before being discharged outside the device. When the activated carbon adsorption cotton 211 becomes saturated, it can be removed from the filter cylinder 28 by magnetic adsorption for replacement.
[0031] Example 2: When food packaging machine 1 packages different types of food, it may generate gases with different odors and impurities. For example, when packaging seafood, the gas may contain a lot of fishy smell and moisture. At this time, the fan 25 of the gas filtration and emission mechanism 2 increases its operating power to improve the speed of gas extraction and filtration. Simultaneously, because seafood produces a lot of debris, the mesh cover 27 can effectively intercept these debris, preventing them from entering the filter cartridge 28 and affecting the adsorption effect of the activated carbon adsorption cotton 211. The filtered gas is discharged outside the device, reducing pollution to the workshop environment.
[0032] Example 3: After prolonged use of the automatic packaging device, the activated carbon adsorption cotton 211 may lose its adsorption capacity due to excessive adsorption of impurities. In this case, the operator can open the top frame 21 and remove the activated carbon adsorption cotton 211 along with the top magnetic ring 210 from the filter cartridge 28 to replace it with a new one. Due to the magnetic adsorption design of the top magnetic ring 210 and the bottom magnetic ring 29, the replacement process is convenient and quick, requiring no complicated tools or procedures. After replacement, restarting the blower 25 will allow the device to continue normal operation, ensuring the effective filtration and emission of gas.
[0033] Based on the above-described preferred technical solution, the workflow of this technical solution is explained as follows:
[0034] The food to be packaged is placed on the food conveyor belt 13, which then starts operating, transporting the food to the fast food bucket sealing operation table 12. The fast food bucket is placed on the sealing operation table 12 manually or via an automatic feeding device and positioned to ensure proper sealing. The sealing function of the fast food bucket sealing operation table 12 is activated via the control panel 15 to seal the fast food bucket. During the food packaging process, the blower 25 is activated. The blower 25 operates, drawing gas from inside the protective enclosure 14 through the air duct 26. The gas first passes through the mesh cover 27, which intercepts debris in the gas, preventing it from entering the filter cartridge 28. The gas, after being filtered by the mesh cover 27, enters the collection cartridge 24 and then passes through the hemispherical guide hood 23 into the filter cartridge 28. The gas flows upward in the filter cartridge 28 and passes through the activated carbon adsorption cotton 211. The activated carbon adsorption cotton 211 adsorbs and filters the odors and harmful gases in the gas. The gas filtered by the activated carbon adsorption cotton 211 is discharged from the top of the filter cartridge 28, completing the gas filtration and discharge process.
[0035] When the activated carbon absorbent cotton 211 becomes saturated or reaches its expiration date, first turn off the fan 25 and the fast food bucket sealing workbench 12, etc., via control panel 15 to stop the food packaging operation. Hold the activated carbon absorbent cotton 211 by hand; since the top magnetic ring 210 and the bottom magnetic ring 29 are magnetically connected, you can easily remove the activated carbon absorbent cotton 211 along with the top magnetic ring 210 from the filter cylinder 28. Place the new activated carbon absorbent cotton 211 at the top of the inner cavity of the filter cylinder 28, ensuring its outer surface is in close contact with the upper side wall of the inner cavity. At the same time, place the top magnetic ring 210 on the bottom surface of the activated carbon absorbent cotton 211, allowing it to adhere to the bottom magnetic ring 29, completing the installation of the new activated carbon absorbent cotton 211. Restart the fan 25 and the fast food bucket sealing workbench 12, etc., via control panel 15 to resume the food packaging operation.
[0036] The foregoing description only illustrates certain exemplary embodiments of the present invention. Undoubtedly, those skilled in the art can modify the described embodiments in various ways without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Therefore, the above drawings and descriptions are illustrative in nature and should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of the claims of the present invention.
