After that, staff can put the storage bin assembly 100 into the box 10, so that the storage bin assembly 100 is connected to the unloading power unit 300 inside the box 10. With this setting, staff can conveniently fill the storage bin assembly 100 with food and conveniently clean the storage bin assembly 100.
[0041] See Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, in the optional embodiment, the storage bin assembly 100 includes a storage bin body 110 and a discharge wheel 120; the top of the storage bin body 110 is provided with a feed inlet 111, the bottom of the storage bin body 110 is provided with a discharge outlet 112, and the discharge wheel 120 is disposed inside the storage bin body 110.
[0042] Specifically, the feeding power unit 300 can drive the feeding dial 120 to rotate, thereby driving the food in the storage bin 110 downwards and discharging it from the discharge port 112.
[0043] The storage bin 110 has a flexible baffle 113 on its inner wall and the unloading wheel 120 has flexible baffles 113 on both sides. The unloading wheel 120 and the flexible baffles 113 divide the internal space of the storage bin into a storage area 101 and an unloading area 102.
[0044] The storage hopper 110 has a baffle through hole 114 on its side wall. A flexible baffle 113 passes through the baffle through hole 114 and enters the storage hopper. The front end of the flexible baffle 113 faces the feeding wheel 120. A baffle mounting seat 115 is provided at the location of the baffle through hole 114 on the side wall of the storage hopper 110. The end of the flexible baffle 113 exposed outside the storage hopper 110 is mounted on the baffle mounting seat 115.
[0045] See Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, in the optional embodiment, the two ends of the feeding drive shaft 130 of the feeding dial 120 are respectively inserted through the side wall of the storage bin 110, and one end of the feeding drive shaft 130 is provided with a feeding interface 131 that can be adapted to the feeding power component 300.
[0046] The other end of the unloading drive shaft 130 is provided with a correction knob 132 so that the unloading interface 131 can be connected with the unloading power component 300.
[0047] The unloading power unit 300 includes an unloading drive motor 310 and an unloading output shaft 320. The unloading drive motor 310 is housed inside the housing 10, and the unloading output shaft 320 is connected to the unloading drive motor 310. The unloading output shaft 320 can also be connected to the unloading drive shaft 130. The unloading drive motor 310 is mounted on the support frame 210 of the hopper support 200.
[0048] The front end of the unloading output shaft 320 is provided with an unloading drive plug 330 for matching with the unloading interface 131.
[0049] Specifically, the feeding wheel 120 is sleeved on the feeding drive shaft 130, and both ends of the feeding drive shaft 130 pass through the side wall of the storage bin 110. The end of the feeding drive shaft 130 connected to the feeding power component 300 is provided with a feeding interface 131. A feeding drive plug 330 is provided on the feeding output shaft 320 of the feeding drive motor 310. The feeding drive plug 330 can be inserted into the feeding interface 131, so that the storage bin 110 can be detachably connected to the bin support component 200. After the storage bin 110 is installed on the bin support component 200, it can be ensured that the feeding drive motor 310 can drive the feeding wheel 120 inside the storage bin 110 to rotate.
[0050] In addition, a correction knob 132 is provided at the end of the feeding drive shaft 130 away from the feeding interface 131. The operator can manually rotate the correction knob 132 to adjust the angle of the feeding interface 131. Thus, during the process of reinstalling the storage bin 110, the operator can adjust the angle of the feeding interface 131 by rotating the correction knob 132, so that the feeding interface 131 can smoothly connect with the feeding drive plug 330.
[0051] See Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5As shown, in the optional scheme of this embodiment, the hopper support 200 includes a support frame 210 and a hopper carrying platform 220. The support frame 210 is disposed inside the box 10, and the hopper carrying platform 220 is disposed on the support frame 210. The hopper carrying platform 220 has a discharge port 221 corresponding to the discharge port 112.
[0052] Specifically, the silo support platform 220 is installed inside the housing 10. The silo support platform 220 can support the silo assembly 100 and the unloading power component 300, ensuring the stability of the silo assembly 100 and the unloading power component 300.
[0053] Furthermore, a discharge port 221 corresponding to the discharge port 112 is provided on the silo carrying platform 220. When the storage silo component 100 is installed on the silo carrying platform 220, the discharge port 112 at the bottom of the storage silo body 110 can correspond to the discharge port 221, ensuring the smooth flow of food.
[0054] See Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, in the optional scheme of this embodiment, the hopper carrying platform 220 is provided with inclined support platforms 222 on both sides of the material discharge port 221.
[0055] Specifically, inclined support platforms 222 are provided on both sides of the material loading platform 220 located at the material discharge port 221. The two inclined support platforms 222 can provide guidance for the movement of the storage silo body 110, making it easier for the staff to connect the material discharge interface 131 on the storage silo body 110 with the material discharge drive plug 330 of the material discharge power component 300.
[0056] See Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, in the optional scheme of this embodiment, the end of the inclined support platform 222 away from the unloading power component 300 is detachably provided with a hopper limit stop pin 223.
[0057] Specifically, a hopper limit pin 223 is provided at the end of the inclined support platform 222 away from the unloading power component 300. The hopper limit pin 223 is inserted into the inclined support platform 222. When it is necessary to disassemble the storage hopper 110, the operator can pull out the hopper limit pin 223, then disassemble the storage hopper 110, fill the storage hopper 110 with food and reinstall it. After that, the operator can reinsert the hopper limit pin 223 into the inclined support platform 222. The hopper limit pin 223 can limit the storage hopper 110, preventing the storage hopper 110 from shifting due to vibration or other reasons during operation, and ensuring the normal transmission between the storage hopper 110 and the unloading drive motor 310.
[0058] This embodiment provides a food dispensing device, including a storage compartment structure for food dispensing.
[0059] Specifically, the food dispensing equipment provided in this embodiment has the advantages of the aforementioned food dispensing storage bin structure compared to the prior art, which will not be elaborated here.
