Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model particularly relates to an ultra-thin material transfer device. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, in the production process of biscuits or potato chips, manual operation is mainly relied upon to separate materials one by one to ensure the smooth progress of subsequent drying and filling processes. Workers rely on their experience to separate stacked biscuits one by one. However, this manual separation method has significant drawbacks: on the one hand, manual operation is inefficient and cannot meet the speed requirements of large-scale production, thus hindering the overall production progress; on the other hand, labor costs are high, requiring companies to invest a large amount of manpower in this step, increasing production costs. Furthermore, the instability and inaccuracy of manual operation can easily lead to material damage, thereby increasing the scrap rate and affecting the stability and consistency of product quality. In addition, frequent direct contact between humans and materials poses a potential risk of product contamination, which threatens food safety and hygiene standards. Especially for ultra-thin products on the market, which are more fragile and irregularly shaped, existing automated equipment is insufficient to meet the need for individual separation, making this step almost entirely reliant on manual handling for ultra-thin products, further amplifying the aforementioned problems and becoming a pressing challenge for the industry.

[0023] An ultra-thin material transfer device, referring to Figures 1-3 The device includes a frame 1, on which a driving device is provided. Several adsorption elements 2 are connected to the driving device. A feeding channel 4 for stacking materials 3 is provided on one side of the frame 1, and a discharging channel 5 is provided on the other side of the frame 1. Each adsorption element 2 adsorbs and transfers the stacked materials 3 one by one into the discharging channel 5 under the action of the driving device.

[0024] Furthermore, the adsorption element 2 includes a connecting pipe 21 for connecting to a vacuum pump, one end of which is connected to a silicone suction nozzle 22, and the other end is connected to a drive device.

[0025] Furthermore, the silicone nozzle 22 has a sponge layer on the side facing the material 3.

[0026] Furthermore, the driving device includes a rotary motor 6 mounted on the frame 1, a swing mechanism connected to the rotary motor 6, a transmission assembly connected to the swing mechanism, a movable frame 7 for mounting the adsorption component 2 connected to the transmission assembly, and swing arms 8 rotatably mounted on both sides of the frame 1, with the two ends of the movable frame 7 hinged to the swing arms 8 respectively.

[0027] Furthermore, the swing mechanism includes a swing rod 91 connected to the rotary motor 6, and a connecting frame 92 is connected to the swing rod 91. The connecting frame 92 is slidably mounted on the frame 1.

[0028] Furthermore, the transmission assembly includes racks 11 disposed on both sides of the connecting frame 92 and gears 12 connected to the swing arm 8. The connecting frame 92 drives the swing arm 8 to swing through the meshing of the racks 11 and gears 12.

[0029] Furthermore, a conveying device is provided in the feeding channel 4, and a limiting strip 13 is connected to the conveying device. Multiple baffles 131 are provided on the limiting strip 13. Adjacent baffles 131 and limiting strip 13 together form a limiting groove for stacking materials 3. The conveying device drives the limiting strip 13 to move so that the materials 3 in the limiting groove are moved to the bottom of the adsorption member 2.

[0030] The working principle of this utility model is as follows:

[0031] As an example 1, such as Figure 1 As shown, this application uses an example with nine adsorption elements 2 to illustrate the design concept. Each adsorption element 2 has a corresponding feeding channel 4 below it. When the drive device is activated, it moves the adsorption element 2 to adsorb the material 3 stacked in the feeding channel 4. Taking biscuits as an example, the adsorption element 2 adsorbs a single biscuit at a time and then transfers it to the unloading channel 5. Taking nine adsorption elements 2 as an example, the drive device drives nine adsorption elements 2 to adsorb nine biscuits at a time, which can move the biscuits stacked in each feeding channel 4 into the unloading channel 5 one by one. This design can separate the stacked biscuits one by one for subsequent filling or drying processing steps.

[0032] Based on the above technical solution, as Example 1, the adsorption component 2 can be configured with a silicone nozzle 22 and a connecting tube 21. The connecting tube 21 is connected to a vacuum pump, and the silicone nozzle 22 is connected to the connecting tube 21. Under the action of the vacuum pump, the silicone nozzle adsorbs the biscuit. The adsorption force of the silicone nozzle on the biscuit can be controlled by controlling the air intake of the vacuum pump, so that the silicone nozzle can adsorb a single biscuit at a time. This application also provides a sponge layer on the side of the silicone nozzle 22 facing the biscuit. The surface of the biscuit is generally not flat, and the sponge layer can better fit the biscuit and prevent air leakage. It can also be used for the transfer of ultra-thin biscuits and fragile biscuits (the thickness of ultra-thin biscuits can be as low as 1.2-1.7cm). When the adsorption component 2 moves the biscuit above the feeding channel 5, the vacuum pump is controlled to release the biscuit from the silicone nozzle 22, and the biscuit falls into the feeding channel 5.

[0033] Based on the above technical solution, the design concept of the drive device is as follows: A rotary motor 6 is connected to the frame 1, a swing mechanism is connected to the rotary motor 6, a transmission component is connected to the swing mechanism, and a movable frame 7 for mounting the adsorption component 2 is connected to the transmission component. Swing arms 8 are respectively provided on both sides of the frame 1, and the two ends of the movable frame 7 are respectively hinged to the swing arms 8. When the rotary motor 6 drives the swing mechanism to swing, the swing mechanism drives the movable frame 7 to swing back and forth through the transmission component and the swing arms 8. Since the adsorption component 2 is connected to the movable frame 7, the movable frame 7 drives the adsorption component 2 to swing back and forth, thereby transferring the biscuits in the feeding channel 4 to the unloading channel 5.

[0034] Based on the above technical solution, the specific implementation of the swing mechanism is as follows: a swing rod 91 is connected to the rotary motor 6, and a connecting frame 92 is connected to the swing rod 91. The connecting frame 92 is slidably mounted on the frame 1. The transmission assembly consists of a rack 11 on the connecting frame 92 and a gear 12 on the frame 1, with the swing arm 8 connected to the gear 12. When the rotary motor 6 rotates, it drives the swing rod 91 to swing, thereby driving the connecting frame 92 to move back and forth. During the back and forth movement of the connecting frame 92, the rack... The meshing action of gear 11 with gear 12 drives gear 12 to rotate. Since the swing arm 8 is connected to gear 12, it also drives the swing arm 8 to rotate (the swing arm 8 rotates within a range of 0-180 degrees). During rotation, the swing arm 8 drives the moving frame 7 to swing back and forth. When the moving frame 7 swings forward, it moves the suction element 2 forward and downward to suction a single cookie. Subsequently, when the moving frame 7 swings backward, it moves the suction element 2 backward and releases the cookie, causing it to fall into the feeding channel 5. This process moves stacked cookies one by one into the feeding channel 5. The conveying device of this application is not only suitable for cookies but also for conveying products such as potato chips.

[0035] Based on the above technical solution, this application provides a conveying device within the feeding channel 4. A limiting strip 13 is connected to the conveying device, and multiple baffles 131 are provided on the limiting strip 13. Adjacent baffles 131 and the limiting strip 13 together form a limiting groove for stacking materials 3. The conveying device drives the limiting strip 13 to move, so that the materials 3 in the limiting groove are moved below the adsorption member 2. During operation, stacked biscuits are placed into the limiting groove. As an example, in Embodiment 1, the conveying device can be a chain conveyor. When the chain conveys, it can drive the limiting strip 13 to move synchronously, so as to convey the stacked biscuits below the adsorption member 2. Since the principle of chain conveying technology is a mature technology, it will not be described in detail here.

[0036] Improved production efficiency: The transfer device of this application uses a drive unit to operate the adsorption components, which can quickly and accurately adsorb stacked materials one by one and transfer them into the unloading channel. This process automates material separation and transfer, greatly accelerates the production pace, effectively improves overall production efficiency, meets the speed requirements of large-scale production, and significantly improves production efficiency compared to traditional manual operation methods.

[0037] Adapted for thin biscuit transport: Addressing the unique characteristics of thin biscuits, this application adds a sponge layer to the side of the silicone suction nozzle facing the biscuit. Due to their thinness and brittle texture, traditional suction devices are difficult to use effectively and are prone to breakage. The sponge layer, with its excellent flexibility and conformability, can closely adhere to the uneven surface of the biscuit, increasing the contact area and effectively solving the problems of difficult suction and easy slippage. This ensures the integrity of the biscuit during transport, reduces the breakage rate, and makes the equipment suitable for transporting thin biscuits.

[0038] Preventing air leakage and ensuring adsorption effect: The surface of biscuits is usually uneven, with various minor undulations and irregular shapes. The sponge layer can better conform to the contour of the biscuit surface and fill its gaps, thereby significantly reducing the occurrence of air leakage. It also avoids problems such as adsorption failure or material falling due to air leakage, further improving the smoothness and stability of the production process.

[0039] Reduced scrap rate: By using a sponge layer to enhance the seal and adhesion between the adsorption component and the biscuit, the risk of biscuits falling or colliding due to unstable adsorption is reduced, thus decreasing the number of damaged biscuits during transfer. This helps improve the stability and consistency of product quality, lowers the overall scrap rate in the production process, saves costs for the company, and improves economic efficiency.
