[0002] Vacuum bags, also known as depressurized packaging, involve removing all the air from the packaging container and sealing it to maintain a high depressurization state inside the bag. The scarcity of air is equivalent to a low-oxygen effect, which prevents microorganisms from surviving, thus ensuring the freshness of the fruit and preventing disease and rot.

[0003] In existing technology, staff need to open the top cover first, put the opening of the packaging bag in, close the top and bottom covers, and press the top cover with their hands while starting the vacuum pump to create a vacuum inside the packaging bag. Staff need to keep pressing, otherwise the air extraction effect will be reduced. Therefore, we have introduced a vacuum sealing device for food packaging. Utility Model Content

[0012] As a further embodiment of this utility model, the locking unit includes a locking block, and a sliding groove is provided on one side of the two mounting slots opposite each other. The locking block is slidably disposed in the sliding groove, and a spring is provided at the bottom of the sliding groove.

[0013] One end of the locking block extends outside the slide groove, and the side wall of the mounting block is provided with a locking groove that cooperates with the locking block.

[0014] As a further embodiment of this utility model, the unlocking unit includes a rotating shaft and a pull rope. The upper cover has a rectangular cavity located between two mounting slots. A through hole is provided between the rectangular cavity and the mounting slots.

[0021] This vacuum sealing device for food packaging comprises a lower cover, a rotating wheel, a packaging bag slot, an upper cover, a locking block, a heat sealing module, a vacuum chamber, a vacuum pump, a mounting block, a pull rope, a rotating shaft, and a spring. Rotating the rotating wheel drives the rotating shaft to rotate. The pull rope, wound around the rotating shaft, pulls the locking block, causing it to compress the spring and move to the outside of the locking slot. At this point, the upper cover opens via the rotating wheel and shaft, allowing the opening of the packaging bag to be placed in the vacuum chamber. The upper cover is then closed, and the mounting block is inserted into the mounting slot. The mounting block, with its chamfered edge, pushes the locking block to compress the spring. When the locking block aligns with the locking slot, the spring pushes the locking block into the locking slot, locking the upper and lower covers. The vacuum pump is then activated to evacuate the air from the vacuum chamber. After evacuation, the heat sealing module is activated to heat seal the opening of the packaging bag. This allows for quick and easy locking of the upper and lower covers, and can be operated with one hand, reducing operational difficulty and worker fatigue while improving the vacuum sealing effect.
