[0022] 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 scope of protection of the present utility model.
[0023] Specific implementation examples are given below.
[0024] like Figures 1 to 4As shown in the embodiment of this utility model, a condiment conveying device includes a conveying device 1; multiple support columns 11 are fixedly connected to the conveying device 1; a storage box 12 is fixedly connected to the support columns 11; a sealing cover 13 is hinged to the top of the storage box 12; an electric valve 14 is connected to the bottom of the storage box 12; a discharge port 17 is connected to the bottom of the electric valve 14; a set of electric push rods 15 is fixedly connected to the middle of the conveying device 1; the set of electric push rods 15 are correspondingly arranged; the set of electric push rods 15 are staggered vertically; a V-shaped clamp 16 is fixedly connected to the telescopic end of the electric push rod 15; during operation, the packaging container of the condiment is placed on the surface of the conveying device 1 and conveyed to the discharge port. When the container is below 17, the electric push rod 15 is extended or retracted to clamp the packaging container with the V-clamp 16, aligning the opening of the packaging container with the discharge port 17. The electric valve 14 is then opened to inject the seasonings from the storage box 12 into the packaging container through the discharge port 17. The electric valve 14 is then closed, and the electric push rod 15 is extended or retracted to continue conveying the packaging container forward with the conveyor 1. A set of staggered V-clamps 16 can apply pressure to the packaging container from multiple directions, keeping the packaging container stable during the clamping process. This reduces the shaking of the packaging container caused by factors such as the inertia of the conveyor 1 or the pressure when the electric valve 14 injects the seasonings, thus reducing filling errors and seasoning splashing.
[0025] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, the V-shaped clamp 16 is rotatably connected to multiple rollers 2 in the middle; the rollers 2 are arranged on both sides of the V-shape; during operation, when the V-shaped clamp 16 contacts the surface of the packaging container, the rollers 2 contact the surface first, and the friction between the rollers 2 and the packaging container will cause the rollers 2 to rotate, causing the packaging container to move forward in the direction of the rotation of the rollers 2. The multiple rollers 2 make it easier to push the packaging container, reduce the friction between the packaging container and the surface of the V-shaped clamp 16, and achieve the effect of protecting the packaging container.
[0026] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 5 As shown, an elastic band 3 is fixedly connected to the middle of the V-shaped clamp 16; both ends of the elastic band 3 are fixed to the inner sidewall of the V-shaped clamp 16. During operation, when the V-shaped clamps 16 on both sides clamp the packaging container, the elastic band 3 presses against the surface of the packaging container. By setting the elastic band 3, the packaging container can be subjected to a more uniform pressure on its surface during the clamping process, reducing the excessive local pressure caused by the direct clamping of the V-shaped clamp 16, which could damage the packaging container. The friction between the elastic band 3 and the surface of the packaging container is relatively large, which can reduce the slippage of the packaging container during the clamping process.
[0027] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 5As shown, a set of guide plates 4 are fixedly connected to the middle of the conveying device 1; the guide plates 4 are arranged correspondingly; the guide plates 4 are inclined; during operation, the packaging container is placed randomly on the conveyor belt. When the conveyor belt moves forward and encounters the obstruction of the guide plates 4, the packaging container moves along the direction guided by the guide plates 4. By setting the guide plates 4, the packaging container can be moved in a predetermined direction, reducing the risk of the packaging container being placed on both sides of the conveyor belt and getting stuck in the blind area of the V-shaped clamps 16 and unable to be clamped by a set of V-shaped clamps 16.
[0028] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 5 As shown, the surface of the diversion plate 4 is provided with multiple air outlets 52; the air outlets 52 are connected to the diversion plate 51; the diversion plate 51 is connected to the air pipe 5; the air pipe 5 passes through one side of the conveying device 1; an air pump is installed at the end of the air pipe 5; when working, the air pump switch is turned on, so that it blows air into the air pipe 5, and other air enters the diversion plate 51 through the air pipe 5, and is dispersed into multiple airflows that are blown out from the multiple air outlets 52. By using the air pump to blow air into the air pipe 5, a buffering effect can be achieved when the packaging container comes into contact with the surface of the diversion plate 4, while also achieving the effect of cleaning the surface of the packaging container.
[0029] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, a set of collection troughs 6 are provided on the conveyor belt of the conveyor device 1; the collection troughs 6 are provided on both sides of the conveyor belt; a collection box 61 is fixedly connected to one side of the conveyor device 1; the collection box 61 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the conveyor device 1; during operation, when too much seasoning is injected into the packaging container, causing the seasoning to overflow, the overflowing seasoning is scattered on the surface of the conveyor device 1. As the conveyor belt moves, the seasoning shifts to both sides and enters the collection troughs 6 for collection. Seasoning that does not enter the collection troughs 6 falls into the collection box 61 when it reaches the end of the conveyor device 1. At this time, the seasoning in the collection troughs 6 also falls into the collection box 61. By providing a set of collection troughs 6, the scattered seasoning can be temporarily collected in the collection troughs 6, reducing the amount of seasoning falling outside through the gaps on both sides of the conveyor belt. The collection box 61 can collect the seasoning that falls outside the packaging container, making it convenient for centralized processing and recycling.
[0030] Working principle: When the condiment packaging container is placed on the surface of the conveyor device 1 and conveyed to below the discharge port 17, the electric push rod 15 is extended or retracted to clamp the packaging container with the V-clamp 16, aligning the opening of the packaging container with the discharge port 17. The electric valve 14 is then opened, injecting the condiments from the storage box 12 into the packaging container through the discharge port 17. Subsequently, the electric valve 14 is closed, and the electric push rod 15 is extended or retracted to continue conveying the packaging container forward with the conveyor device 1. When the V-clamp 16 contacts the surface of the packaging container, the roller 2 contacts its surface first. The friction between the roller 2 and the packaging container causes the roller 2 to rotate, propelling the packaging container forward in the direction of the roller 2's rotation. When the V-clamps 16 on both sides clamp the packaging container, the elastic band 3 tightens around the surface of the packaging container. The elastic band 3 allows for more uniform pressure to be applied to the surface of the packaging container during the clamping process. The packaging container is placed randomly on the conveyor belt. When the conveyor belt moves forward and encounters the obstruction of the guide plate 4, the packaging container moves in the direction guided by the guide plate 4. The air pump switch is turned on, causing it to blow air into the air pipe 5. Other air enters the diverter plate 51 through the air pipe 5 and is dispersed into multiple air streams that are blown out from multiple air outlets 52. When too much seasoning is injected into the packaging container, causing the seasoning to overflow, the overflowing seasoning is scattered on the surface of the conveyor device 1. As the conveyor belt moves, the seasoning shifts to both sides and enters the collection trough 6 for collection. Seasoning that does not enter the collection trough 6 falls into the collection box 61 when it reaches the end of the conveyor device 1. At this time, the seasoning in the collection trough 6 also falls into the collection box 61.

Those skilled in the art should understand that this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. The embodiments and descriptions in the specification are merely illustrative of the principles of this utility model. Various changes and modifications can be made to this utility model without departing from its spirit and scope, and all such changes and modifications fall within the scope of the claimed utility model.
