[0019] This invention provides a material-retrieving mechanism that allows flexible selection of a specific row of intestines from one or more rows of intestinal boxes. When there are multiple rows of intestines with varying material requirements, a passive material-dropping method is employed to enable flexible selection of a particular row. A moving platform drives the material-dropping mechanism to pass under the corresponding row to retrieve the desired material. During this process, only one intestine from each row is retrieved at a time, and a microswitch detects successful retrieval, ensuring smooth machine operation. Furthermore, a discharge fork is integrated into the same mechanism to push the retrieved material away and transport it to the next station. This adds functionality without adding a drive source, reducing overall complexity, production costs, and improving the mechanism's stability. This intestinal box material-dropping technology increases the flexibility and stability of discharging various types of intestines, has low electrical control requirements, a simple structure for easy maintenance, and low cost. The structure facilitates cleaning and operation, and does not damage the intestines during transport. Attached Figure Description

[0028] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, and not all embodiments. The components of the embodiments of this utility model described and shown in the accompanying drawings can generally be arranged and designed in various different configurations.

[0029] Specific implementation method one: Combining Figure 1 and Figure 2 This embodiment describes a sausage box with a material handling mechanism, which includes at least one box body 1, a bottom blocking component 2, a mobile material handling trolley 3, and a bottom trolley drive component 4.

[0030] The bottom blocking component 2 of the box is installed on the bottom outlet end of the box 1, and the mobile material handling trolley 3 is installed on the bottom trolley drive component 4 and is driven by the bottom trolley drive component 4 to move at the bottom of the bottom blocking component 2 of the box.

[0031] In this embodiment, the bottom trolley drive component 4 drives the mobile material handling vehicle 3 to move along the direction of the box 1. The mobile material handling vehicle 3 cooperates with the bottom blocking component 2 of the box to make the intestines in the box 1 fall into the mobile material handling vehicle 3, thus completing the intestine box material handling work.

[0032] Specific Implementation Method Two: Referring to the diagram Figure 3 This embodiment describes a sausage box with a feeding mechanism. The bottom blocking component 2 of the box body includes multiple sausage blocking units. The multiple sausage blocking units are installed at the bottom of the box body 1 along the length direction of the box body 1. Each sausage blocking unit includes a sausage blocking rod 2-1, two tension springs 2-2 and two spring fixing pins 2-3.

[0033] Symmetrical slots for mounting intestinal baffles are machined along the length of the side walls on both sides of the box body 1. Intestinal baffles 2-1 are slidably mounted within two symmetrical slots. Each end of the intestinal baffle 2-1 is connected to a tension spring 2-2, and the other end of the tension spring 2-2 is mounted on the side wall of the box body 1 via a spring fixing pin 2-3. An arc-shaped protrusion is machined on the bottom side plate of each slot. Other components and connections are the same as in Specific Embodiment 1.

[0034] In this embodiment, each intestinal baffle is installed in a strip hole to prevent the intestine above from falling. The intestinal baffle 2-1 is tightened by a tension spring 2-2, and the intestinal baffle 2-1 is moved to allow the intestine at the bottom of the intestinal box 1 to fall.

[0035] Specific implementation method three: Combining Figures 6-8 This embodiment describes a sausage box with a material handling mechanism. The mobile material handling cart 3 includes a sausage support 3-1, a fork 3-2, a fork-activated limit switch 3-3, and a cart fixing frame 3-6.

[0036] The intestinal support 3-1 is rotatably connected to the top of the trolley fixing frame 3-6. The bottom of the shift fork 3-2 is rotatably connected to the trolley fixing frame 3-6, and the top of the shift fork 3-2 is located inside the intestinal support 3-1. The shift fork trigger limit switch 3-3 is installed at the top of the trolley fixing frame 3-6, and the contact of the shift fork trigger limit switch 3-3 is in contact with the top of the shift fork 3-2. Other components and connections are the same as in specific embodiment one.

[0037] In this embodiment, the intestine above the mobile material handling vehicle 3 falls into the mobile material handling vehicle 3. The intestine presses down the top of the shift fork 3-2 by gravity and makes contact with the contact of the limit switch 3-3, thus recording that the intestine has fallen into the mobile material handling vehicle 3.

[0038] Specific implementation method four: Combination Figures 6-8 This embodiment describes a sausage box with a material handling mechanism. The bottom of the shift fork 3-2 is rotatably connected to the trolley fixing frame 3-6 via a shift fork pin. A shift fork torsion spring is provided between the bottom of the shift fork 3-2 and the trolley fixing frame 3-6.

[0039] A torsion spring is provided between the bottom of the fork 3-2 and the trolley fixing frame 3-6. The fork 3-2 rotates around the fork pin on the trolley fixing frame 3-6, causing the fork 3-2 to move at the outlet of the intestinal support 3-1. The intestines taken out of the box 1 are transferred through the fork 3-2 and the intestinal support 3-1. Other components and connections are the same as in specific embodiment three.

[0040] Specific Implementation Method Five: Combining Figures 4-8 This embodiment describes a sausage box with a material handling mechanism. The connecting end of the sausage bracket 3-1 is rotatably connected to the top of the trolley fixing frame 3-6 via a bracket shaft, and a bracket torsion spring is provided on the bracket shaft.

[0041] The intestinal support bracket 3-1 is supported by a bracket torsion spring, and the top of the intestinal support bracket 3-1 is made to fit against the intestinal baffle 2-1. The intestinal baffle 2-1 is pushed to move within the intestinal baffle mounting slot, causing the intestines inside the box 1 to fall. The gravity of the intestines inside the bracket 3-1 compresses the bracket torsion spring, causing the intestinal support bracket 3-1 to separate from the upper intestinal baffle 2-1. Other components and connections are the same as in specific embodiment three.

[0042] Specific Implementation Method Six: Combination Figures 6-8 This embodiment describes a sausage box with a material handling mechanism. The movable material handling trolley 3 includes a first trolley bushing 3-4 and a second trolley bushing 3-5, which are mounted on a trolley fixing frame 3-6. Other components and connections are the same as in specific embodiment three.

[0043] Specific implementation method seven: Combination Figures 6-8This embodiment describes a sausage box with a feeding mechanism. The sausage support 3-1 includes a rotating connecting frame and two U-shaped curved plates. The two U-shaped curved plates are symmetrically arranged on the rotating connecting frame, with one side of each U-shaped curved plate fixedly connected to the rotating connecting frame and the other side of each U-shaped curved plate having a notch. The side walls at both ends of the rotating connecting frame are fixed to the end faces of the U-shaped curved plates. The top of a fork 3-2 is positioned between the U-shaped curved plates. The rotating connecting frame is rotatably connected to the top of a trolley fixing frame 3-6 via a support shaft. A support torsion spring is provided on the support shaft, with one end of the support torsion spring mounted on the rotating connecting frame and the other end mounted on the trolley fixing frame 3-6. Other components and connections are the same as in specific embodiment five.

[0044] Specific implementation method eight: Combination Figures 6-8 This embodiment describes a sausage box with a material handling mechanism. The fork 3-2 includes a fork connecting plate and two levers. The two levers are symmetrically arranged. The bottom end of each lever is fixedly connected to the fork connecting plate. The position of each lever near the bottom end is rotatably connected to the trolley fixing frame 3-6 through a fork pin. The top of each lever is an arc-shaped bent rod. A fork torsion spring is installed on the trolley fixing frame 3-6. One end of the fork torsion spring is set on the trolley fixing frame 3-6, and the other end of the fork torsion spring is set near the fork connecting plate.

[0045] The movement range of the fork 3-2 is limited by the elasticity of the fork torsion spring. When the fork 3-2 is placed on the intestine, the weight of the intestine and the elasticity of the fork torsion spring remain in balance. Other components and connections are the same as in specific embodiment four.

[0046] Specific Implementation Method Nine: Combining Figures 1-3 This embodiment describes a sausage container with a feeding mechanism. The container consists of two bodies 1, which are fixedly connected side-by-side. Two slide rails are mounted on each body 1 and are slidably mounted on the refrigerator's tracks. Other components and connections are the same as in Specific Embodiment One.

[0047] Two side-by-side cabinets 1 slide on the cabinet track, making it easy to pull the cabinets 1 out of the refrigerator to add sausages in time, and then push them back into the refrigerator.

[0048] Specific Implementation Method Ten: Combining Figure 1 and Figure 8 This embodiment describes a sausage box with a material handling mechanism. The bottom trolley drive component 4 is a CoreXY drive structure. An optical shaft is respectively inserted into the first trolley bushing 3-4 and the second trolley bushing 3-5. The optical shafts in the first trolley bushing 3-4 and the second trolley bushing 3-5 are arranged parallel to each other on the bearing seats of the CoreXY drive structure. Other components and connections are the same as in specific embodiment six.

[0049] Working principle

[0050] During operation, the mobile material handling trolley 3 moves, and the notch on the U-shaped curved plate on the side of the sausage bracket 3-1 near the direction of movement matches the upper arc protrusion. The mobile material handling trolley 3 moves in a wave-like motion during operation. According to the instructions of the external controller, the mobile material handling trolley 3 is moved to the sausage compartment below the designated box 1. At this time, the mobile material handling trolley 3 continues to move forward and pushes the sausage stop bar 2-1 by rotating the side walls at both ends of the connecting frame, so that the sausage in the box 1 falls into the sausage bracket 3-1 and the fork 3-2. Due to the gravity of the sausage, the sausage bracket 3-1 and the box 1 will change from a contact state to a separation state. The sausage bracket 3-1 and the fork 3-2 move downward, so that the sausage bracket 3-1 separates from the pushing sausage stop bar 2-1. The trolley fixing frame 3-6 will limit the rotation angle of the trolley. After the sausage bracket 3-1 separates from the box 1, the sausage stop bar 2-1, which was originally fixed by the tension spring 2-2, will quickly spring back to the initial position, thereby preventing other sausages from falling. When the bottom trolley drive component 4 is about to reach the outlet along the lower XY guide rail, the lower end of the unloading plate will rotate due to hitting the sheet metal part in front, so that the upper end of the unloading plate will push the intestine out. The intestine will slide out into the loading module along the sheet metal base rocker plate and the refrigerator intestine guide plate.

[0051] Note that the above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present invention and the technical principles employed. Those skilled in the art will understand that the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments described herein, and various obvious changes, readjustments, and substitutions can be made without departing from the scope of protection of the present invention. Therefore, although the present invention has been described in detail through the above embodiments, the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments. Many other equivalent embodiments may be included without departing from the concept of the present invention, and the scope of the present invention is determined by the scope of the appended claims.
