Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of feed production technology, and specifically relates to a feed packaging and labeling device. Background Technology
[0002] In the feed industry, labeling after packaging is not only the final step in packaging, but also a core measure for establishing a product traceability system, ensuring quality and safety, and improving logistics efficiency. Feed packaging and labeling refers to attaching product information (such as batch number, production date, product name, etc.) to the packaging bag through labels or QR codes during the feed packaging process to facilitate traceability and management.
[0003] Currently, feed packaging involves two workers holding the bag opening tightly and placing it over the feed pellet mill's outlet to receive feed until the bag is nearly full, then stopping the machine. Another worker then uses a handcart or forklift to move the full feed bag to be weighed. Once the weight meets the standard, another worker affixes a label to the outer surface of the feed bag. The entire process requires five workers, resulting in high labor costs. Reducing the number of workers would decrease production efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0022] Compared with existing technologies, this utility model has the following beneficial effects:
[0023] This feed packaging and labeling device reduces labor costs, requiring only two people to complete the feed bagging, packaging, and labeling process. The operator zeroes the electronic scale, places the feed bag on the placement plate, and opens the bag opening to fit over the exit of the rectangular conveyor section. The operator then activates the drive cylinder of the bag clamping mechanism, which rotates the hinge plate to clamp the bag opening. After clamping, the operator opens the valve of the intermediate compartment to begin feeding the feed bag. Once the electronic scale reaches the preset weight range, it sends a signal to the controller connected to the scale. The controller then controls the connected valve to stop feeding and subsequently controls the drive cylinder, which rotates the hinge plate to release the clamping block. The process involves clamping the bag opening; the worker pulls the limit rod off the frame of the auxiliary conveyor belt, and the placement plate moves from the auxiliary conveyor belt towards the main conveyor belt. During the movement, the guide plate is restricted by the first and second guide grooves, so that the placement plate can only move along the extension direction of the conveyor belt until the placement plate is intercepted by the blocking rod. At this time, the laser sensor of the arrival detection gate module detects that the feed bag is in place and sends a signal to the controller connected to it. The controller controls the inkjet printer to print codes on the surface of the feed bag. After the printing is completed, another worker operates a forklift to remove the feed bag from the conveyor belt, completing the process of packaging and labeling the feed.

The embodiments of this utility model will now be described based on its overall structure.
[0035] like Figures 1-4 As shown, this embodiment provides a feed packaging and labeling device, comprising:
[0036] Intermediate hopper 1 has an inlet and an outlet. The inlet connects to the discharge port of the feed pellet mill, and the outlet discharges the feed. Intermediate hopper 1 includes a funnel section 11 and a rectangular conveyor section 12. The inlet is located at one end of the funnel section 11, and the outlet is located at one end of the rectangular conveyor section 12. The other ends of the funnel section 11 and the rectangular conveyor section 12 are connected. It should be noted that the rectangular conveyor section 12 is equipped with a switch valve, which controls the feeding or blocking of the rectangular conveyor section 12.
[0037] A bag clamping mechanism 2 is located at the discharge port of the intermediate hopper 1. The bag clamping mechanism 2 is used to clamp the opening of the feed bag 3 at the outlet. The bag clamping mechanism 2 includes two clamping assemblies symmetrically arranged on both sides of the rectangular conveying section 12. Each clamping assembly includes a drive cylinder 22, a fixed plate 21, a hinge plate 23, and clamping blocks 24. One end of the fixed plate 21 is fixed to the outer wall of the funnel section 11, and the other end extends outward. The fixed end of the drive cylinder 22 is fixed to the other end of the fixed plate 21. The piston rod of the drive cylinder 22 is hinged to the middle of the hinge plate 23. One end of the hinge plate 23 is hinged to the outer wall of the rectangular conveying section 12, and the other end extends outward. Clamping blocks 24 are fixed to the hinge plate 23. Multiple clamping blocks 24 are spaced apart on the hinge plate 23.
[0038] A weighing base 4 has a placement plate 43 that is slidably connected to a conveyor belt 5. The weighing base 4 is used to weigh feed bags 3 placed on it. The weighing base 4 includes an electronic scale 41, an auxiliary conveyor belt 42, and a placement plate 43. The auxiliary conveyor belt 42 is fixed to the weighing area of the electronic scale 41, and the placement plate 43 is placed on the auxiliary conveyor belt 42. The auxiliary conveyor belt 42 is connected to the conveyor belt 5. The frame of the auxiliary conveyor belt 42 has a first guide groove, and the frame of the conveyor belt 5 has a second guide groove. The end port of the first guide groove and the initial end port of the second guide groove are connected. The bottom of the placement plate 43 has a guide plate. When the placement plate 43 is on the auxiliary conveyor belt 42, the guide plate is inserted into the first guide groove and is slidably connected to the first guide groove. When the placement plate 43 is on the conveyor belt 5, the guide plate is inserted into the second guide groove and is slidably connected to the second guide groove. The placement plate 43 is a flat plate.
[0039] It should be noted that the end of the auxiliary conveyor belt 42 furthest from the conveyor belt 5 is higher than the end closest to the conveyor belt 5, and a limit rod 7 is provided at the end closest to the conveyor belt 5.
[0040] The conveyor belt 5 has one end located below the outlet and the other end located to one side of the labeling mechanism 8. The frame of the auxiliary conveyor belt 42 has a first guide groove, and the frame of the conveyor belt 5 has a second guide groove. The end ports of the first and second guide grooves are connected. The bottom of the placement plate 43 has a guide plate. When the placement plate 43 is on the auxiliary conveyor belt 42, the guide plate is inserted into the first guide groove and is slidably connected to it. When the placement plate 43 is on the conveyor belt 5, the guide plate is inserted into the second guide groove and is slidably connected to it. The end of the conveyor belt 5 closest to the auxiliary conveyor belt 42 is higher than the end furthest from the auxiliary conveyor belt 42, and the end of the conveyor belt 5 furthest from the auxiliary conveyor belt 42 has an intercepting bar 51. The conveyor belt 5 is an existing roller conveyor belt 5. Since the two ends of the conveyor belt 5 have different heights, it can move towards the end of the conveyor belt 5 with the weight of the placement plate 43 and the feed bag 3. The placement plate 43 is restricted by the guide plate and the second guide groove, so it can only move along a fixed route, preventing the placement plate 43 from moving to the sides of the conveyor belt 5. By setting the intercepting bar 51, the placement plate 43 can be limited, realizing the double limitation of the guide plate and the second guide groove and the intercepting bar 51, while avoiding the collision between the guide plate and the second guide groove.
[0041] A positioning detection module 6 is located on one side of the conveyor belt 5. This module detects whether the feed bag 3 has been conveyed to the labeling mechanism 8. The positioning detection module 6 includes a laser sensor 61 and a reflective marker 62, located on opposite sides of the conveyor belt 5. The laser sensor 61 is mounted on one side of the conveyor belt 5 via a mounting base; the reflective marker 62 is mounted on the other side of the conveyor belt 5 via a reflector plate. The laser sensor 61 faces the reflective marker 62. The laser sensor 61 monitors the area between itself and the reflective marker 62 in real time. When the feed bag 3 reaches this area, the laser sensor 61 cannot receive the laser light reflected from the reflective marker 62. At this point, a signal is sent to the controller connected to the laser sensor 61. Upon receiving the positioning information of the feed bag 3, the controller activates the labeling mechanism 8, which then labels the feed bag 3.
[0042] Labeling mechanism 8 is located on the other side of conveyor belt 5 and is used to label feed bags 3 on conveyor belt 5. Labeling mechanism 8 includes a moving trolley and a coding machine, which is an inkjet coding machine or a laser coding machine; the moving trolley is located on one side of conveyor belt 5, and the coding machine is mounted on the moving trolley. The moving trolley moves toward or away from conveyor belt 5 via a fixed track.
[0043] Specifically, the mobile trolley uses an existing track trolley. Guided by the track, the mobile trolley moves along a fixed path, driving the inkjet printer to move towards the conveyor belt 5, and printing information such as production date, batch number, and QR code on the outer surface of the feed bag 3.
[0044] Existing inkjet or laser marking machines can directly print production dates, batch numbers, QR codes, and other information onto the surface of the moving feed bag 3. This requires no label consumables, is fast, and can easily handle variable information (different batch numbers for each bag). The disadvantages are that it requires specific packaging bag materials and surfaces (good adhesion is necessary), the clarity and durability of the printed content may be affected by the environment (such as dust and humidity), and it cannot handle complex graphic information (such as company logos or complex tables). It is commonly used to print core traceability information such as dates and batches on woven or laminated bags, sometimes in conjunction with pre-printed packaging bags containing fixed information. However, the feed bag 3 in this embodiment is an existing woven bag, thus meeting the operating requirements of inkjet or laser marking machines.
[0045] Working process: The operator zeroes the electronic scale 41, places the feed bag 3 on the placement plate 43, and opens the bag opening of the feed bag 3 to fit over the outlet of the rectangular conveyor section 12. The operator then activates the drive cylinder 22 of the bag clamping mechanism 2, which drives the hinge plate 23 to rotate, causing the clamping block 24 to clamp the opening of the feed bag 3. After clamping and fixing, the operator opens the valve of the intermediate chamber 1 to begin feeding the feed bag 3. Once the electronic scale 41 weighs the feed bag within the preset weight range, the electronic scale 41 sends a signal to the controller connected to it. The controller then controls the connected valve to stop feeding, and then controls the drive cylinder 22, which drives the hinge plate 23 to rotate, causing the clamping block 24 to release its grip on the opening of the feed bag 3. The worker pulls the limit rod 7 off the frame of the auxiliary conveyor belt 42, and the placement plate 43 moves from the auxiliary conveyor belt 42 to the conveyor belt 5. During the movement, the guide plate is restricted by the first guide groove and the second guide groove, so that the placement plate 43 can only move along the extension direction of the conveyor belt 5 until the placement plate 43 is intercepted by the intercepting rod 51. At this time, the laser sensor 61 of the arrival detection gate module detects that the feed bag 3 is in place and sends a signal to the controller connected to it. The controller controls the inkjet printer to print the code on the surface of the feed bag 3. After the printing is completed, another worker operates a forklift to remove the feed bag 3 from the conveyor belt 5 (the feed bag has a hanging rope 31, and the forklift rod is inserted into the hanging rope 31 to drop the feed bag), thus completing the process of packaging and labeling the feed.
[0046] Example 2
[0047] like Figure 3 As shown, the labeling mechanism 8 in this embodiment includes a telescopic cylinder 81 and a labeling stamp 82. The telescopic cylinder 81 is fixed to one side of the conveyor belt 5. The movable end of the telescopic cylinder 81 is fixedly connected to the labeling stamp 82, or the movable end of the telescopic cylinder 81 is fixedly connected to the labeling stamp 82 through an extension rod. The movable end of the telescopic cylinder 81 is perpendicular to the conveyor belt 5. Specifically, the telescopic cylinder 81 is an existing cylinder. The telescopic cylinder 81 can be fixed to one side of the conveyor belt 5 by a fixed bracket. The telescopic cylinder 81 drives the labeling stamp 82 to stamp the feed bag 3 on the conveyor belt 5. The labeling stamp 82 is engraved with information about the feed bag 3, such as product name, specifications, production date, shelf life, etc. The labeling stamp 82 can be red, black, or other colored. The purpose of connecting the movable end of the cylinder to the extension rod is to avoid the cylinder not extending long enough to effectively stamp. Connecting an extension rod of appropriate length avoids this problem.
