This makes it impossible to effectively divert and classify food when processing multiple types of food. This not only reduces the flexibility and efficiency of the production line, but also leads to cross-contamination between different foods, affecting product quality and safety. Therefore, a conveyor structure for food processing is proposed to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0031] 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.
[0032] Reference Figures 1 to 3An embodiment of this utility model provides a food processing conveyor structure, including a base plate 1, which is the foundation of the entire conveyor structure. A roller conveyor belt 2 is fixedly connected to the top of the base plate 1. The roller conveyor belt 2 is used to carry and move food during processing. A direction conversion mechanism 3 is fixedly connected to the top of the roller conveyor belt 2. The function of the direction conversion mechanism 3 is to control the direction of the conveyor belt so that different types of food can change their direction of travel as needed. A worktable 17 is fixedly connected to the top of the base plate 1. The worktable 17 is used to center and align the food. A positioning mechanism 18 is fixedly connected to the top of the worktable 17.
[0033] The direction conversion mechanism 3 includes a support plate 4, the bottom of which is fixedly connected to the top of the base plate 1. The support plate 4 supports the drive assembly. The drive assembly is fixedly connected to the outer side of the support plate 4. The drive assembly is the power source of the direction conversion mechanism 3. The drive assembly includes a motor 5, the inner side of which is fixedly connected to the rear side of the support plate 4. The output end of the motor 5 is fixedly connected to an output shaft 6, and the outer side of the output shaft 6 is rotatably connected to the inner side of the support plate 4. The motor 5 outputs power through the output shaft 6. The drive assembly is fixedly connected to a rotating column 7, and the power of the motor 5 is output through the output shaft 6 to drive the rotating column. The rotation of column 7 is caused by multiple friction wheels 8 fixedly connected to its exterior. The rotation of the friction wheels 8 drives the rotation of the belt. Multiple fixed plates 10 are fixedly connected to the inner side of the roller conveyor belt 2. Fixed pulleys 11 are rotatably connected to the inner side of each fixed plate 10. The fixed plates 10 are fixed to the inner side of the roller conveyor belt 2, securing the fixed pulleys 11 internally. A rotating belt 9 is rotatably connected to the outer side of the fixed pulleys 11. The outer side of the rotating belt 9 is rotatably connected to the inner side of the roller conveyor belt 2, and the outer side of the rotating belt 9 is in contact with the outer side of the friction wheels 8. A sliding pulley 12 is rotatably connected to the inner side of the rotating belt 9. The rotating belt 9 transports food and simultaneously drives the sliding pulley 12 to rotate. The sliding pulley 12 can slide downwards under the action of the telescopic component, adjusting the belt to an inclined state so that the items can be transported in another direction. A telescopic component is fixedly connected to the top of the base plate 1. The telescopic component can extend and retract to tilt the belt, allowing the food to be transported in another direction via the roller conveyor belt 2. The telescopic component includes multiple cylinders 13. The bottom of each cylinder 13 is fixedly connected to the top of the base plate 1, and the inner side of each cylinder 13 is fixedly connected to the top of the base plate 1. Connected to the outside of the sliding pulley 12, the output end of cylinder 13 is fixedly connected to a drive ring 14. The cylinder outputs power through the drive ring 14 to drive the sliding pulley 12 and the rotating belt 9 to tilt. A transmission assembly is fixedly connected to the top of the base plate 1. The transmission assembly is used to transmit different types of food. The transmission assembly includes a roller conveyor belt 2 15. The bottom of roller conveyor belt 2 15 is fixedly connected to the top of the base plate 1. Roller conveyor belt 2 15 is used to carry and transmit food. A roller conveyor belt 3 16 is fixedly connected to the top of the base plate 1. Roller conveyor belt 3 16 is used to transmit food to different directions.
[0034] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 4The positioning mechanism 18 includes a support frame 19, the bottom of which is fixedly connected to the top of a workbench 17. The workbench 17 provides a stable working surface for centering food. A support block 20 is fixedly connected to the top of the support frame 19, supporting a second cylinder 21. The second cylinder 21 is fixedly connected to the front side of the support block 20. A drive plate 22 is fixedly connected to the output end of the second cylinder 21. The second cylinder 21 outputs power through the drive plate 22 to drive the sliding plate 23 to slide. The sliding plate 23 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the drive plate 22. The top is slidably connected to the bottom of the support frame 19. The sliding plate 23 is driven by the second cylinder 21 to drive the two clamping plates 25 to slide inward simultaneously. The top of the sliding plate 23 is fixedly connected to the connecting rod 24, which connects the two sliding plates 23 and transmits the power of the second cylinder 21. The rear side of the sliding plate 23 is fixedly connected to the clamping plate 25. The outer side of the clamping plate 25 is slidably connected to the outer side of the support frame 19. The two clamping plates 25 slide inward simultaneously under the drive of the sliding plate 23 connected by the connecting rod 24 to center and position the food, preventing it from shifting during the conveying process.
[0035] Working principle: After the food enters the conveying structure, it is first placed on the roller conveyor belt 12. The roller conveyor belt 12 carries and initially moves the food. The motor 5 on the outside of the support plate 4 in the direction conversion mechanism 3 starts. The motor 5 drives the rotating column 7 to rotate through the output shaft 6. The multiple friction wheels 8 on the outside of the rotating column 7 rotate accordingly. The fixing plate 10 fixes the fixing pulley 11 to the inside of the roller conveyor belt 12. The friction wheels 8 contact the outside of the rotating belt 9, thereby driving the rotating belt 9 to rotate. The food moves towards the roller conveyor belt 3 16 under the drive of the rotating belt 9. When it is necessary to divert the food, the cylinder 13 in the telescopic assembly starts to work. The output end of the cylinder 13 drives the sliding pulley 12 to slide down through the drive ring 14, so that the state of the rotating belt 9 is adjusted to be inclined. At this time, the food is transferred from the roller conveyor belt 12 to the roller conveyor belt 2 15 under the action of the inclined rotating belt 9, realizing the diversion and conveying of different foods.
[0036] Before food transfer, when the food arrives at the workbench 17, the positioning mechanism 18 is activated. The second cylinder 21 in the positioning mechanism 18 is started. The output end of the second cylinder 21 drives the sliding plate 23 to slide at the bottom of the support frame 19 through the drive plate 22. Since the two sliding plates 23 are connected by the connecting rod 24, they will slide inward at the same time, thereby driving the clamping plate 25 on the rear side to slide on the outside of the support frame 19, centering the food and ensuring that the food remains stable during subsequent transfer and does not shift.
[0037] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
