Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of feeding technology, specifically to an automatic feeding device for packaging nutritious porridge. Background Technology
[0002] In the food processing industry, automated packaging of nutritious porridge is a key step in improving production efficiency and product quality. With the surge in consumer demand for convenient foods, nutritious porridge, as a representative of ready-to-eat and functional health foods, is experiencing explosive growth in production capacity.
[0003] When the nutritional porridge is finished and packaged, it needs to be conveyed using feeding equipment. During the conveying process, it is inevitable that the finished nutritional porridge will become upside down. Existing equipment has limited capacity to handle such abnormalities, usually requiring manual sorting and flipping, which cannot achieve fully automated operation and restricts the improvement of the automation level of the production line. Furthermore, the existing feeding equipment is prone to significant sliding friction with the packaging boxes during the movement of the nutritional porridge, causing wear and deformation of the packaging box surface, affecting the product's appearance quality.
[0004] Therefore, we propose an automatic feeding device for packaging nutritious porridge to solve the problems mentioned above. Utility Model Content
[0005] 1. The technical problem to be solved by the utility model:
[0006] The purpose of this utility model is to provide an automatic feeding device for packaging nutritious porridge, so as to solve the problems currently found in the market as mentioned in the background art.
[0007] 2. Technical Solution:
[0008] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: an automatic feeding device for packaging nutritious porridge, comprising a frame, a conveyor belt assembly installed at the upper end of the frame, and side baffles installed on both the left and right sides of the upper end of the conveyor belt assembly, with guide component one and guide component two installed on the side baffle on the left side, and guide component one located behind guide component two.
[0009] A clamping component one is installed on the side baffle located on the right side, and a clamping component two is installed on the side baffle located on the left side. The clamping component one is located between the guide component one and the guide component two, and the clamping component one and the clamping component two are arranged opposite each other on the left and right.
[0010] Furthermore, the second guide component includes a guide plate rotatably mounted on the side baffle, and the second guide component also includes a limiting strip and an electric push rod one fixedly mounted on the side baffle. The output end of the electric push rod one is equipped with a sliding block, and the sliding block is laterally slidably mounted on the limiting strip. A connecting component is installed between the sliding block and the guide plate.
[0011] The above technical solution enables the electric push rod to slide the sliding block on the limit strip after it is started. After the sliding block is displaced, it drives the guide plate to rotate through the connecting component, so as to adjust according to the actual size of the porridge container.
[0012] Furthermore, a plurality of rollers are rotatably mounted on the guide plate, and the connecting assembly includes a first connecting rod rotatably mounted on a sliding block and a second connecting rod rotatably mounted on the guide plate. A sliding rod is fixed to the end of the first connecting rod, and the sliding rod is slidably disposed inside the second connecting rod. A pressure spring is sleeved on the outside of the sliding rod, and the two ends of the pressure spring are respectively connected to the first connecting rod and the second connecting rod.
[0013] The above technical solution allows for the use of rollers and pressure springs to provide double protection for the nutritious porridge packaging box, ensuring its appearance and structural integrity.
[0014] Furthermore, the cross-section of the limiting strip is designed in a "T" shape.
[0015] The above technical solution ensures that the sliding block slides stably on the limit strip.
[0016] Furthermore, the first guide and the second guide are of the same size, and the first clamp and the second clamp are symmetrically distributed about the center of the conveyor belt assembly.
[0017] The above technical solution enables the guide component pair to guide and transport the finished porridge. When inversion is detected, the clamping component one and clamping component two are used to flip the finished porridge. Then, the guide component two guides and transports the flipped finished porridge for subsequent boxing.
[0018] Furthermore, the second clamping component includes a bracket fixed to the corresponding side baffle, a motor is mounted on the bracket, a movable frame is mounted on the output end of the motor, an electric push rod is mounted on the movable frame, an installation plate is fixed to the output end of the electric push rod, and a suction cup assembly is mounted on the installation plate.
[0019] The above technical solution enables the electric push rod to be activated, and then the suction cup assembly to adsorb and fix the finished nutritious porridge. The motor then drives the finished nutritious porridge to rotate.
[0020] 3. Beneficial effects:
[0021] Compared with the prior art, the automatic feeding equipment for nutritious porridge packaging of this utility model provides double protection for the nutritious porridge packaging box during the guiding process through the cooperation of rollers and connecting components. Furthermore, the cooperation of clamping parts one and two flips the inverted finished nutritious porridge for subsequent packaging operations. The specific details are as follows:
[0022] The conveyor belt assembly transports several boxes of finished nutritional porridge to be packaged. When the boxed nutritional porridge comes into contact with the guide plate on guide component one or guide component two, the guide plate guides the boxed nutritional porridge to the right side of the conveyor belt assembly. The rollers densely distributed on the surface of the guide plate convert sliding friction into rolling friction through rolling contact, greatly reducing the friction between the box and the packaging box and effectively preventing the packaging box from being damaged by friction. At the same time, the pressure spring in the connecting component plays an elastic buffering role. When the roller is subjected to impact force, the spring is compressed in time to relieve the force, providing double protection for the nutritional porridge packaging box and ensuring its appearance and structural integrity.
[0023] When the existing visual inspection equipment detects that the finished porridge on the conveyor belt assembly is upside down, it activates the electric push rod two on clamping component one, causing the suction cup assembly to move down and pick up the upside-down porridge. Then, it activates the motor on clamping component one, causing the picked-up porridge to rotate 90 degrees. Subsequently, it activates the electric push rod two on clamping component two, causing the suction cup assembly on clamping component two to pick up the rotated porridge. Then, it releases the suction effect of the suction cup assembly on clamping component one, and activates the motor on clamping component two again, causing the porridge to rotate 90 degrees. Then, it releases the suction effect of the suction cup assembly on clamping component two, and the porridge is flipped over. It is then guided again by guide component two for subsequent boxing operations. Attached Figure Description

[0033] Please see Figure 1-4 An automatic feeding device for packaging nutritious porridge includes a frame 1. A conveyor belt assembly 2 is installed on the upper end of the frame 1, and side baffles 3 are installed on both the left and right sides of the upper end of the conveyor belt assembly 2. A guide component 1 4 and a guide component 2 5 are installed on the left side baffle 3, with the guide component 1 4 located behind the guide component 2 5. The guide component 2 5 includes a guide plate 51 rotatably mounted on the side baffle 3, and a limiting strip 53 and an electric push rod 55 fixedly mounted on the side baffle 3. A sliding block 54 is installed at the output end of the electric push rod 55, and the sliding block 54 is laterally slidably mounted on the limiting strip 53. A connecting assembly 56 is installed between the guide plates 51; several rollers 52 are rotatably mounted on the guide plate 51; the connecting assembly 56 includes a first connecting rod 561 rotatably mounted on the sliding block 54 and a second connecting rod 563 rotatably mounted on the guide plate 51; a sliding rod 562 is fixed to the end of the first connecting rod 561, and the sliding rod 562 is slidably disposed inside the second connecting rod 563; a pressure spring 564 is sleeved on the outside of the sliding rod 562, and the two ends of the pressure spring 564 are respectively connected to the first connecting rod 561 and the second connecting rod 563; the limiting strip 53 has a "T" shaped cross-section.
[0034] The conveyor belt assembly 2 operates continuously, conveying multiple boxes of finished nutritional porridge in an orderly manner from back to front. When the nutritional porridge packaging box comes into contact with the guide plate 51 of guide component 1 4 or guide component 2 5, the guide plate 51 immediately performs its guiding function, accurately guiding the nutritional porridge to move to the right side of the conveyor belt assembly 2. The rollers 52 densely distributed on the surface of the guide plate 51 convert sliding friction into rolling friction through rolling contact, greatly reducing the friction between the packaging box and the box, effectively preventing the packaging box from being damaged by friction. At the same time, the pressure spring 564 in the connecting component 56 plays an elastic buffering role. When the roller 52 is subjected to impact force, the spring is compressed in time to relieve the force, providing double protection for the nutritional porridge packaging box and ensuring its appearance and structural integrity.
[0035] A clamping component 6 is installed on the right-side side baffle 3, and a clamping component 7 is installed on the left-side side baffle 3. The clamping component 6 is located between the guide component 4 and the guide component 5, and the clamping component 6 and the clamping component 7 are arranged opposite each other. The guide component 4 and the guide component 5 have the same size and are symmetrically distributed about the center of the conveyor belt assembly 2. The clamping component 7 includes a bracket 71 fixed on the corresponding side baffle 3. A motor 72 is installed on the bracket 71, and a movable frame 73 is installed on the output end of the motor 72. An electric push rod 74 is installed on the movable frame 73. An installation plate 75 is fixed on the output end of the electric push rod 74, and a suction cup assembly 76 is installed on the installation plate 75.
[0036] When the existing visual inspection equipment detects that the finished porridge on the conveyor belt assembly 2 is upside down, it activates the electric push rod 74 on clamping component 6, causing the suction cup assembly 76 to move down and pick up the upside-down porridge. Then, it activates the motor 72 on clamping component 6, causing the picked-up porridge to rotate 90 degrees. Subsequently, it activates the electric push rod 74 on clamping component 7, causing the suction cup assembly 76 on clamping component 7 to pick up the rotated porridge. Then, it releases the suction effect of the suction cup assembly 76 on clamping component 6, and activates the motor 72 on clamping component 7 again, causing the porridge to rotate 90 degrees. Then, it releases the suction effect of the suction cup assembly 76 on clamping component 7, and the porridge is flipped over. It is then guided again by guide component 2 5 for subsequent boxing operations.
[0037] Working principle: When using this automatic feeding equipment for packaging nutritious porridge, such as... Figure 1-4 As shown, several finished nutritional porridges awaiting packaging are first conveyed by the conveyor belt assembly 2.
