Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of food production technology, and in particular to a palletizing device for food production and processing. Background Technology

[0002] In the food production and processing sector, with the continuous growth of market demand and the continuous expansion of production scale, food output is increasing day by day. After production and processing, food usually needs to be packaged and then enters the palletizing stage to facilitate storage, transportation and subsequent sales management. Palletizing is the process of neatly stacking packaged food according to certain rules and arrangements. Existing food is usually handled and palletized manually or by robotic arms.

[0003] Existing food processing palletizing and conveying devices cannot rotate the fixed mechanism during operation, thus they cannot automatically clamp and convey pallets at different angles, reducing the flexibility of the device and consequently reducing work efficiency.

[0004] The existing patent (publication number: CN220519536U) discloses a palletizing and conveying device for food processing. By turning on the first motor, the circular plate rotates under the drive of the first motor. Under the drive of the circular plate, the L-shaped support frame rotates. Under the drive of the L-shaped support frame, the upper fixed plate and the second motor rotate. The second motor drives the winding roller to rotate, which in turn drives the fixed mechanism to rotate. This allows for multi-angle operation as needed, improving the flexibility of the device and increasing work efficiency.

[0005] Existing patents offer solutions to the aforementioned problems, but they lack a limiting mechanism during the rotation of the disc, resulting in the disc and support frame being out of position and thus failing to accurately grasp and palletize food.

[0006] Therefore, a palletizing device for food production and processing is proposed. Utility Model Content

Detailed Implementation

[0028] 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 protection scope of the present utility model.

[0029] Please see Figures 1 to 5 This utility model provides a technical solution:

[0030] A palletizing device for food production and processing includes a support frame 1, a movable frame 2 movably disposed on the top of the support frame 1, a movable frame 3 disposed on the top of the movable frame 2, a first electric push rod 4 bolted to the top of the movable frame 3, a gripping mechanism 5 disposed at the output end of the first electric push rod 4, and a moving drive mechanism 6 disposed between the support frame 1 and the movable frame 3.

[0031] The gripping mechanism 5 includes a mounting cover 51 located at the bottom of the first electric push rod 4. A rotating gear 52 is connected to the bearing inside the mounting cover 51. A servo motor 53 is located at the top of the mounting cover 51. A drive gear 54 is located at the output end of the servo motor 53. The drive gear 54 meshes with the rotating gear 52. A second electric push rod 55 is bolted to the side wall of the mounting cover 51. A locking block 56 is located at the output end of the second electric push rod 55. The locking block 56 contacts the drive gear 54. A mounting frame 57 is located at the bottom of the rotating gear 52. Clamping components 58 are located at both ends of the mounting frame 57.

[0032] Specifically, such as Figure 4As shown, the clamping assembly 58 includes a slide 581 disposed on the inner wall of the mounting frame 57, a slide plate 582 disposed inside the slide 581, a clamping plate 583 disposed at one end of the two sets of slide plates 582, and two third electric push rods 584 disposed at both ends of the mounting frame 57, the output end of the third electric push rod 584 being fixedly connected to the clamping plate 583.

[0033] Specifically, such as Figure 4 As shown, a fourth electric push rod 7 is bolted to the side wall of the clamping plate 583. An adjustment plate 8 is provided at the output end of the fourth electric push rod 7. Multiple guide rods 9 are provided on the side wall of the adjustment plate 8. The guide rods 9 are movably connected to the clamping plate 583.

[0034] Specifically, such as Figure 4 As shown, an anti-slip pad 14 is adhered to the side wall of the adjustment plate 8.

[0035] Specifically, such as Figure 1 As shown, a food conveyor belt 15 is provided at the bottom of the support frame 1, and a pallet 16 is provided on one side of the food conveyor belt 15.

[0036] This food processing palletizing device is mainly used to accurately grab food from the food conveyor belt 15 and stack it onto the palletizing tray 16. Its operation involves the movement of the moving frame 2 and moving frame 3 on the support frame 1, the grabbing mechanism 5 grabbing, rotating, and adjusting the food, and the coordinated operation between various components. When the grabbing mechanism 5 reaches a position approximately above the food, the first electric push rod 4 is activated, driving the grabbing mechanism 5 downwards to bring it closer to the food for grabbing. When the grabbing mechanism 5 descends to a suitable position, the third electric push rod 584 is activated, pushing the clamping plate 583 closer to the food. The two sets of clamping plates 583 cooperate to clamp the food. After the clamping plates 583 clamp the food, the fourth electric push rod 7 is activated, pushing the adjusting plate 8 further closer to the food for more precise clamping and positioning. The anti-slip pad 14 adhered to the side wall of the adjusting plate 8 increases the friction between the plate and the food, preventing the food from slipping during clamping and transfer. When it is necessary to adjust the grabbed food... When the angle is adjusted to meet the palletizing requirements, the servo motor 53 starts, driving the drive gear 54 to rotate. The drive gear 54 then drives the rotating gear 52 to rotate, thereby rotating the mounting frame 57, its clamping assembly 58, and the food together to the appropriate angle. After the rotating gear 52 rotates to the specified angle, the second electric push rod 55 starts, pushing the locking block 56 to tightly press against the drive gear 54, preventing the drive gear 54 and the rotating gear 52 from rotating unexpectedly due to external forces or other factors, and ensuring the angle stability of the food during the palletizing process. In this way, through the cooperation of the servo motor 53, the drive gear 54, and the rotating gear 52, the angle of the gripped food can be precisely adjusted to meet the requirements of different palletizing modes and spatial layouts, improving the flexibility and adaptability of palletizing. The cooperation of the second electric push rod 55 and the locking block 56 can lock the rotating gear 52 after it is adjusted to the appropriate angle, preventing the angle of the food from changing due to external forces or other factors during the palletizing process, and ensuring the accuracy and stability of the palletizing.

[0037] Specifically, such as Figure 2 As shown, the moving drive mechanism 6 includes four transmission seats 61 disposed on the top of the support frame 1. The transmission seats 61 are equipped with transmission wheels 62 inside, and a transmission belt 63 is disposed between two transmission wheels 62. A first motor 64 is bolted to the side wall of the transmission seat 61. A rotating shaft 65 is disposed at the output end of the first motor 64. The rotating shaft 65 is fixedly connected to the two transmission wheels 62. The transmission belt 63 is fixedly connected to the moving frame 2. A second motor 66 is bolted to the top of the moving frame 3. A moving gear 67 is fixedly connected to the output end of the second motor 66. A moving rack 68 is disposed on the inner wall of the moving frame 2. The moving gear 67 meshes with the moving rack 68.

[0038] Specifically, such as Figure 2 As shown, the top of the support frame 1 is fixedly connected to two first slide bars 10, and the bottom of the movable frame 2 is provided with a first slide frame 11.

[0039] Specifically, such as Figure 2 As shown, the top of the movable frame 2 is provided with two second slide bars 12, and the bottom of the movable frame 3 is provided with two second sliding frames 13. The second slide bars 12 and the second sliding frames 13 are movably connected.

[0040] When the first motor 64 starts, the rotating shaft 65 begins to rotate, which in turn drives the two transmission wheels 62 to rotate synchronously. The rotation of the transmission wheels 62 drives the transmission belt 63 to move, thereby enabling the moving frame 2 to move horizontally on the top of the support frame 1. During the horizontal movement of the moving frame 2, the first sliding frame 11 slides along the first slide bar 10, providing a stable guide for the movement of the moving frame 2 and ensuring that the moving frame 2 can move smoothly and accurately in the horizontal direction. When the second motor 66 starts, the moving gear 67 begins to rotate. Due to the meshing relationship between the moving gear 67 and the moving rack 68, the rotational motion of the moving gear 67 is converted into the horizontal movement of the moving frame 3. During the upward linear movement of the moving frame 3 in the horizontal left and right directions, the second sliding frame 13 slides along the second sliding bar 12, providing guidance for the horizontal left and right directions of the moving frame 3. This ensures the stability and accuracy of the moving frame 3 in the vertical direction, and avoids tilting or swaying during the movement. It further improves the accuracy of the position adjustment of the gripping mechanism 5. In this way, the horizontal movement distance and position of the moving frame 2 can be precisely controlled by the moving drive mechanism 6, so that the gripping mechanism 5 can accurately reach the food on different positions on the food conveyor belt 15, meet the requirements of different production needs and palletizing layouts, and improve the accuracy and efficiency of palletizing.

[0041] By adopting the above technical solution, the problem of the lack of a limiting mechanism in the existing food processing palletizing and conveying device, which causes the turntable and support frame 1 to be insecurely positioned and thus cannot accurately grasp and palletize food, is solved.

[0042] Working principle: In use, the first electric push rod 4 is activated, driving the gripping mechanism 5 to move downwards. After the gripping mechanism 5 descends to the appropriate position, the third electric push rod 584 is activated, pushing the clamping plate 583 closer to the food. The two sets of clamping plates 583 cooperate to clamp the food. After the clamping plates 583 clamp the food, the fourth electric push rod 7 is activated, pushing the adjusting plate 8 further closer to the food for more precise clamping and positioning. When it is necessary to adjust the angle of the gripped food to meet the palletizing requirements, the servo motor 53 is activated, driving the drive gear 54 to rotate. The drive gear 54 then drives the rotating gear 52 to rotate, thereby causing the mounting frame 57 and its clamping components 58 to rotate together with the food to the appropriate angle. After the rotating gear 52 rotates to the specified angle, the second electric push rod 55 is activated, pushing the locking block 56 to tightly press against the drive gear 54, preventing the drive gear 54 and the rotating gear 52 from rotating unexpectedly due to external forces or other factors, and ensuring the angular stability of the food during the stacking process. At the same time, when the first motor 64 is activated, the rotating shaft 65 begins to rotate, which in turn drives the two transmission wheels 62 to rotate synchronously. The rotation of the transmission wheels 62 will drive the transmission belt 63 to move, thereby enabling the moving frame 2 to move horizontally on the top of the support frame 1. When the second motor 66 is activated, the moving gear 67 begins to rotate. Due to the meshing relationship between the moving gear 67 and the moving rack 68, the rotational motion of the moving gear 67 will be converted into the linear motion of the moving frame 3 in the horizontal left and right directions.

[0043] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model, and are not intended to limit it. Although the utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some or all of the technical features therein. Such modifications or substitutions do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model.
