[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of chili sauce production equipment, and in particular to a filling device for chili sauce production. Background Technology
[0002] In the highly competitive chili sauce production industry, the bottling process is arguably the core node of the entire production process, and its bottling accuracy plays a decisive role in product quality and market image. In today's production practice, traditional chili sauce bottling equipment, due to its versatility, is widely used in various production scenarios, from large-scale production lines in large food processing enterprises to manual auxiliary operations in small workshops.
[0003] Most existing chili sauce filling equipment suffers from uneven discharge during filling because the chili sauce itself has a high viscosity, making it difficult for the chili sauce to flow smoothly and stably from the outlet. This results in significant differences in the filling volume of each bottle of chili sauce, greatly affecting the consistency and instability of product quality. Utility Model Content

[0006] Preferably, an upper fixing plate is fixedly installed on the inner bottom of the material distribution box, a first touch switch is fixedly installed on the upper end of the upper fixing plate, a lower fixing plate is provided at the bottom of the upper fixing plate, a second touch switch is fixedly installed at the bottom of the lower fixing plate, and a touch plate is fixedly installed in the middle of the connecting plate.
[0007] By setting the No. 1 touch switch, when the touch plate comes into contact with it, the No. 1 solenoid valve can be opened and the No. 2 solenoid valve can be closed, thus precisely controlling the feeding process of the quantitative cylinder.
[0008] Preferably, an adjusting screw is rotatably connected to the upper end of the upper fixing plate, and a screw hole block is fixedly installed on the top of the lower fixing plate, with the surface of the adjusting screw threaded into the inside of the screw hole block.
[0009] By adjusting the screw settings, rotating it can change the position of the lower fixed plate and the second touch switch, thereby flexibly adjusting the filling amount of the metering cylinder.
[0010] Preferably, the upper fixing plate has a sliding groove inside, and the upper end of the lower fixing plate is fixedly installed with a slider, which is slidably connected inside the sliding groove.
[0011] The chute provides guidance for the movement of the lower fixed plate, allowing it to move smoothly under the action of the adjusting screw, thus ensuring that the touch switch accurately controls the filling process.
[0012] Preferably, the bottom of the storage cylinder is provided with a conveyor frame, the inner side of the conveyor frame is equipped with a conveyor belt, the side of the conveyor frame is equipped with a drive motor, the output end of the drive motor is connected to the inner drive structure of the conveyor belt, and the upper end of the conveyor belt is provided with multiple filling bottles.
[0013] Preferably, when the sealing plug moves downward, it draws out the material inside the dispensing box, and when the sealing plug moves upward, it pushes the material inside the metering cylinder to the filling tube for discharge.
[0014] By using a sealing plug, its up-and-down movement allows for the extraction and pushing of materials, precisely controlling the amount of material in the quantitative cylinder and ensuring consistent filling volume for each bottle of chili sauce.
[0015] Preferably, when the contact plate contacts the first touch switch, it drives the first solenoid valve to open and the second solenoid valve to close; when the contact plate contacts the second touch switch, it drives the second solenoid valve to open and the first solenoid valve to close.
[0016] By setting the touch panel and contacting different touch switches, the opening and closing of the solenoid valve is controlled, automatically switching the feeding and discharging states of the metering cylinder to realize an automated filling process.
[0017] This utility model has the following advantages:
[0018] 1. By setting up a metering cylinder, a first solenoid valve, a second solenoid valve, and a sealing plug driven by an electric cylinder, the electric cylinder drives the connecting plate downward, which in turn causes the drive rod to move the sealing plug downward. At this time, the contact plate contacts the first touch switch, the first solenoid valve opens, and the second solenoid valve closes. The chili sauce in the dispensing box is sucked into the metering cylinder by the suction force generated by the downward movement of the sealing plug. When the electric cylinder drives the connecting plate upward, the sealing plug moves upward, the contact plate contacts the second touch switch, the first solenoid valve closes, and the second solenoid valve opens. The sealing plug pushes the material in the metering cylinder to the filling tube for discharge, realizing quantitative filling of each bottle, ensuring that the filling amount of chili sauce in each bottle is consistent, and greatly improving the stability of product quality.
[0019] 2. The upper and lower fixed plates, adjusting screw, and screw hole block inside the dispensing box work together to achieve flexible adjustment of the filling volume. By rotating the adjusting screw, the screw hole block is fixed on the lower fixed plate, and the lower fixed plate is slidably connected to the upper fixed plate via a slider. Therefore, rotating the adjusting screw will cause the lower fixed plate to move up and down along the slide groove. The position of the second touch switch installed on the lower fixed plate will change accordingly, causing the stroke of the sealing plug to change when the touch plate contacts the second touch switch. This changes the amount of material filled by the metering cylinder each time, which can meet the production needs of different specifications of products and improve the applicability of the device.

[0026] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0027] Please see Figures 1-3 A filling device for chili sauce production includes a storage cylinder 1. A rotary motor 6 is installed on the side of the storage cylinder 1. The output end of the rotary motor 6 passes through the storage cylinder 1 and is connected to a stirring rod 7. The rotary motor 6 installed on the side of the storage cylinder 1 drives the stirring rod 7 to work, which can effectively prevent the chili sauce from settling or stratifying in the storage cylinder 1. A guide pipe 8 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the storage cylinder 1. A dispensing box 9 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the guide pipe 8. Two metering cylinders 10 are fixedly installed at the bottom of the dispensing box 9. A solenoid valve 11 is installed at the upper end of each of the two metering cylinders 10. A sealing plug 12 is installed on the inner wall of the metering cylinder 10. A drive rod 13 is fixedly installed at the bottom of each sealing plug 12. When the sealing plug 12 moves downward, the chili sauce is sucked into the metering cylinder 10 under negative pressure. Due to the good sealing between the sealing plug 12 and the cylinder wall, material leakage and air mixing can be effectively prevented, ensuring that the amount of chili sauce sucked in each time is accurate and stable.
[0028] An electric cylinder 14 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the dispensing box 9. A connecting plate 15 is fixedly installed at the output end of the electric cylinder 14. The bottoms of two drive rods 13 are respectively fixedly installed at both ends of the connecting plate 15. The electric cylinder 14 drives the connecting plate 15 to move downward, which in turn causes the drive rods 13 to move the sealing plug 12 downward. At this time, the contact plate 20 contacts the first contact switch 21, the first solenoid valve 11 opens, and the second solenoid valve 17 closes. The chili sauce in the dispensing box 9 is sucked into the metering cylinder 10 by the suction force generated by the downward movement of the sealing plug 12. Inside, a filling tube 16 is fixedly installed on the upper side of the metering cylinder 10. A second solenoid valve 17 is installed on the upper end of the filling tube 16. When the electric cylinder 14 drives the connecting plate 15 to move upward, the sealing plug 12 moves upward, the contact plate 20 contacts the second touch switch 22, the first solenoid valve 11 closes, the second solenoid valve 17 opens, and the sealing plug 12 pushes the material in the metering cylinder 10 to the filling tube 16 for discharge, realizing the quantitative filling of each filling bottle 5, ensuring that the filling amount of each bottle of chili sauce is consistent, and greatly improving the stability of product quality.
[0029] Please see Figures 1-5An upper fixing plate 18 is fixedly installed on the bottom inner side of the dispensing box 9. A first touch switch 21 is fixedly installed on the upper end of the upper fixing plate 18. A lower fixing plate 19 is provided at the bottom of the upper fixing plate 18. A second touch switch 22 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the lower fixing plate 19. A touch plate 20 is fixedly installed in the middle of the connecting plate 15. The connecting plate 15 drives the touch plate 20 to move up and down. When the touch plate 20 contacts the first touch switch 21 and the second touch switch 22 respectively, the chili sauce in the dispensing box 9 can be smoothly sucked into and discharged from the metering cylinder 10. Through such precise control, the amount of filling each time can be accurately guaranteed.
[0030] An adjusting screw 24 is rotatably connected to the upper end of the upper fixed plate 18, and a screw hole block 23 is fixedly installed on the top of the lower fixed plate 19. The surface of the adjusting screw 24 is threaded into the inside of the screw hole block 23. A sliding groove 25 is provided inside the upper fixed plate 18, and a slider 26 is fixedly installed at the upper end of the lower fixed plate 19. The slider 26 is slidably connected inside the sliding groove 25. Through the interaction of the upper fixed plate 18, lower fixed plate 19, adjusting screw 24, and screw hole block 23 in the dispensing box 9, the filling volume can be flexibly adjusted. By rotating the adjusting screw 24... Since the screw hole block 23 is fixed on the lower fixed plate 19, and the lower fixed plate 19 is slidably connected to the slide groove 25 of the upper fixed plate 18 through the slider 26, the rotation of the adjusting screw 24 will cause the lower fixed plate 19 to move up and down along the slide groove 25. The position of the second touch switch 22 installed on the lower fixed plate 19 will change accordingly, so that the stroke of the sealing plug 12 changes when the contact plate 20 contacts the second touch switch 22, thereby changing the amount of material filled by the quantitative cylinder 10 each time, which can meet the production needs of different specifications of products and improve the applicability of the device.
[0031] The bottom of the storage cylinder 1 is equipped with a conveyor frame 2, and a conveyor belt 3 is installed on the inner side of the conveyor frame 2. A drive motor 4 is installed on the side of the conveyor frame 2. The output end of the drive motor 4 is connected to the inner drive structure of the conveyor belt 3. The drive motor 4 drives the inner drive structure of the conveyor belt 3 to run continuously and stably, so as to automatically and efficiently transport the filling bottle 5 to the filling station and realize the continuous conveying of materials.
[0032] Multiple filling bottles 5 are provided at the upper end of the conveyor belt 3. When the sealing plug 12 moves downward, it draws out the material inside the dispensing box 9. When the sealing plug 12 moves upward, it pushes the material inside the metering cylinder 10 to the filling tube 16 for discharge. This cycle repeats continuously, greatly improving filling efficiency and meeting the needs of large-scale production. Two touch switches are electrically connected to two solenoid valves respectively, realizing precise control of the filling process. When the touch plate 20 contacts the first touch switch 21, it drives the first solenoid valve 11 to open and the second solenoid valve 17 to close. When the touch plate 20 contacts the second touch switch 22, it drives the second solenoid valve 17 to open and the first solenoid valve 11 to close. This realizes the automated switching of the filling process, eliminating the need for manual control of the opening and closing of the solenoid valves and reducing the complexity and error rate of manual operation.
[0033] Working principle: In actual use, first turn on the drive motor 4, drive the conveyor belt 3 to rotate, and transport multiple filling bottles 5 placed on the conveyor belt 3 to the filling station below the quantitative cylinder 10 in sequence. At the same time, the chili sauce in the storage cylinder 1 flows into the dispensing box 9 through the guide pipe 8 under the action of gravity.
[0034] Next, the electric cylinder 14 is started. The output end of the electric cylinder 14 drives the connecting plate 15 to move downward. The connecting plate 15 drives the drive rod 13 connected to it to move downward, thereby causing the sealing plug 12 to move downward in the metering cylinder 10. When the contact plate 20 in the middle of the connecting plate 15 contacts the first contact switch 21, the first solenoid valve 11 opens and the second solenoid valve 17 closes. At this time, the chili sauce in the dispensing box 9 is sucked into the metering cylinder 10 under the negative pressure generated by the downward movement of the sealing plug 12.
[0035] When the electric cylinder 14 drives the connecting plate 15 to move upward, the sealing plug 12 moves upward accordingly. When the contact plate 20 contacts the second contact switch 22, the first solenoid valve 11 closes and the second solenoid valve 17 opens. The sealing plug 12 pushes the chili sauce that has been sucked into the metering cylinder 10 to the filling tube 16, and then fills it into the filling bottle 5 below through the filling tube 16.
[0036] When the filling volume needs to be adjusted, the adjusting screw 24 is rotated. The adjusting screw 24 is threadedly engaged with the screw hole block 23 on the lower fixed plate 19. Rotating the adjusting screw 24 will cause the lower fixed plate 19 to move up and down along the slide groove 25, changing the position of the second touch switch 22. This will change the stroke of the sealing plug 12 when the touch plate 20 contacts the second touch switch 22, thereby adjusting the amount of chili sauce that the metering cylinder 10 sucks in and fills each time to meet different filling needs.
