Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to a steaming robot, specifically a rotary steaming robot component, belonging to the technical field of steaming robot components. Background Technology
[0002] Loading the still is the process of placing the processed brewing raw materials into specific brewing equipment. This step plays a crucial role in the brewing process because it determines the distribution and state of the raw materials during fermentation. Loading the still requires certain skills and experience. During the operation, it is necessary to control the humidity, temperature, and filling speed of the raw materials. At the same time, it is also necessary to ensure that the raw materials are evenly distributed and avoid gaps or over-compaction. These operational details will affect the subsequent fermentation process and thus the quality of the wine. In the past, loading the still was generally done manually. In recent years, with the development of the times and technology, loading the still is done by robots.
[0003] In the prior art, the still-loading robot disclosed in patent CN217478240U can automatically load the mash into the still in a timely and accurate manner, with controllable mash quantity per loading. It features timely, accurate, controllable, and low-cost loading. However, in this technical solution and most current technical solutions, the existing robots mostly only have directional throwing functions. After throwing, the mash tends to accumulate into clumps, still requiring manual intervention to break it up to ensure the process requirements of "light, loose, thin, and uniform". This semi-automatic mode leads to efficiency loss, and the high-temperature and high-humidity brewing environment is still not friendly to manual operation. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a rotary loading robot component to solve this problem. Summary of the Invention
[0004] This utility model provides a solution that is significantly different from existing technologies, addressing the problem that existing technologies are too simplistic. Specifically, the purpose of this utility model is to solve the aforementioned shortcomings of existing technologies by proposing a rotary loading robot component.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:
[0006] A rotary steaming robot assembly includes a fixed plate, a support rod, a docking rod, a support plate, a sprinkling mechanism, and a mash conduit. The fixed plate is connected and fixed to the steaming robot. The support rod is coaxially fixed at the bottom center of the fixed plate. One end of the docking rod is laterally rotatably connected to the support rod. The support plate is vertically fixed to the other end of the docking rod. The sprinkling mechanism is located on the side of the support plate away from the docking rod.
[0007] The scattering mechanism includes a linkage rod, a limit rod, a passive section rod, a driven wheel, and a chute. The center of the linkage rod is rotatably connected to the support plate, and the driven wheel is rotatably connected to one side of the support plate. The chute is recessed on the driven wheel and has a cam structure. One end of the linkage rod is slidably engaged in the chute, and the limit rod is connected to the other end of the linkage rod. The passive section rod is slidably engaged with the limit rod, and one end is rotatably connected to the driven wheel. The mash conduit is fixed to the bottom of the passive section rod.
[0008] A drive mechanism is provided between the support rod and the driven wheel.
[0009] As a further embodiment of this utility model: the drive mechanism includes a driving bevel gear and a linkage bevel gear. The driving bevel gear is coaxially fixed on the support rod, and the linkage bevel gear is coaxially fixed on one side of the driven wheel and rotatably connected to the support plate. The driving bevel gear and the linkage bevel gear mesh with each other.
[0010] As a further embodiment of this utility model, the drive mechanism also includes a servo motor, a drive gear, and a driven gear. The servo motor is mounted on a fixed disk, the drive gear is coaxially fixed on the output shaft of the servo motor, and the driven gear is coaxially rotatably connected to the support rod and fixed to the docking rod.
[0011] As a further improvement of this utility model: a groove is provided at the end of the passive section rod away from the driven wheel, and an adjusting rod is slidably connected in the groove. The mash conduit is fixed at the bottom of the adjusting rod, and the adjusting rod is adjustablely connected to the passive section rod by screws.
[0012] As a further improvement of this utility model: a concave locking block is provided on the limiting rod, the passive section rod has a convex cross-section, and the passive section rod slides in cooperation with the concave locking block. The limiting rod is connected to the linkage rod by bolts in an angle-adjustable manner.
[0013] As a further improvement of this utility model: a roller is rotatably connected to one end of the linkage rod near the driven wheel, and the roller is rolled and engaged in the slide groove.
[0014] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0015] In this invention, a servo motor and a drive gear drive the driven gear to rotate, thereby enabling the docking rod, support plate, and scattering mechanism to rotate around an axis on the support rod, achieving a rotary loading operation and ensuring uniform loading of the mash. Simultaneously, the linkage bevel gear meshes with the drive bevel gear, driving the driven wheel to rotate, causing the linkage rod and the passive rod to move together, which in turn causes the mash guide tube to swing up and down. Through the coordinated design of the scattering mechanism and the drive mechanism, a three-dimensional composite motion trajectory is formed, enabling the mash to achieve the process standards of "light, loose, thin, and uniform". Compared with traditional directional scattering, it can effectively avoid the need for manual intervention to break up the mash, making it simple, efficient, and practical. This technology breaks through the limitation of existing robots that can only scatter in one direction, realizing a key upgrade from "semi-automation" to "full-process intelligence" in baijiu simmering.

The fixed plate 1 is connected and fixed to the steaming robot. The support rod 2 is coaxially fixed at the bottom center of the fixed plate 1. One end of the docking rod 3 is laterally rotatably connected to the support rod 2. The support plate 4 is vertically fixed to the other end of the docking rod 3. The sprinkling mechanism 5 is arranged on the support plate 4 on the side away from the docking rod 3.
[0023] The scattering mechanism 5 includes a linkage rod 51, a limiting rod 52, a passive section rod 53, a driven wheel 54, and a chute 55.

The chute 55 is recessed on the driven wheel 54 and has a cam structure. One end of the linkage rod 51 is slidably engaged in the chute 55, and the limiting rod 52 is connected to the other end of the linkage rod 51. The passive section rod 53 is slidably engaged with the limiting rod 52, and one end is rotatably connected to the driven wheel 54. The mash conduit 6 is fixed to the bottom of the passive section rod 53.
[0024] A drive mechanism 7 is provided between the support rod 2 and the driven wheel 54. The drive mechanism 7 includes a drive bevel gear 71 and a linkage bevel gear 72. The drive bevel gear 71 is coaxially fixed on the support rod 2, and the linkage bevel gear 72 is coaxially fixed on one side of the driven wheel 54 and rotatably connected to the support plate 4. The drive bevel gear 71 and the linkage bevel gear 72 mesh with each other.
[0025] The drive mechanism 7 also includes a servo motor 73, a drive gear 74, and a driven gear 75. The servo motor 73 is mounted on the fixed plate 1, the drive gear 74 is coaxially fixed on the output shaft of the servo motor 73, and the driven gear 75 is coaxially rotatably connected to the support rod 2 and fixed to the docking rod 3.
[0026] In this invention, a servo motor 73 and a drive gear 74 drive a driven gear 75 to rotate, thereby enabling the docking rod 3, the support plate 4, and the sprinkling mechanism 5 to rotate around an axis on the support rod 2, achieving a rotary loading operation and ensuring uniform loading of the mash. Simultaneously, the linkage bevel gear 72 meshes with the drive bevel gear 71, driving the driven wheel 54 to rotate, causing the linkage rod 51 and the passive rod 53 to move in tandem, thereby causing the mash conduit 6 to swing up and down.
