Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of food packaging machinery technology, and in particular to a cup dispensing mechanism for a double-row bowl noodle machine. Background Technology

[0002] During the production of instant noodles, as the cups are conveyed to subsequent workstations via a conveyor belt, defective products (such as deformed or broken cups) need to be quickly identified and rejected. Traditional rejection mechanisms often employ single-row lifting or manual sorting, which are inefficient and prone to disrupting the production line's cycle time. Furthermore, the existing technology lacks sufficient coordination between lifting and translational movements, making it difficult to meet the requirement of simultaneous processing of two rows of instant noodle cups.

[0003] In summary, there is a need for a cup dispensing mechanism for double-row noodle machines to address the shortcomings of existing technologies. Utility Model Content

[0004] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides a cup dispensing mechanism for a double-row bowl noodle machine, aiming to solve the aforementioned problems.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a cup dispensing mechanism for a double-row noodle machine, comprising a main frame, a noodle machine conveyor chain, and a defective product conveying mechanism. The noodle machine conveyor chain supports and conveys the noodle cups. Both the noodle machine conveyor chain and the defective product conveying mechanism are mounted on the main frame. The main frame also houses a lifting mechanism and a discharging mechanism. The lifting mechanism simultaneously ejects the double-row noodle cups from the noodle machine conveyor chain. The discharging mechanism is located directly above the lifting mechanism and simultaneously moves the double-row noodle cups horizontally onto the defective product conveying mechanism. The defective product conveying mechanism includes a first conveyor belt and a second conveyor belt, located on the left and right sides below the discharging mechanism, respectively. By coordinating the lifting mechanism and the discharging mechanism with the first and second conveyor belts, defective products can be simultaneously lifted and horizontally discharged in double rows, significantly improving sorting efficiency, exhibiting strong synergy, and being easy to use.

[0006] Furthermore, the lifting mechanism includes a transmission assembly, an eccentric component, a connecting rod, a base plate, a linear bearing, a guide shaft, a cylinder assembly, and a flat tray.

[0030] In one embodiment, the transmission assembly 31 includes a first motor 311, a drive gear 312, a driven gear shaft 313, and a bearing housing 314. The output end of the first motor 311 is connected to the driven gear shaft 313 via the drive gear 312. Both the front and rear ends of the driven gear shaft 313 are connected to the eccentric member 32 via the bearing housing 314.

[0031] In one embodiment, the cylinder group 37 comprises four sets of cylinders, each set of cylinders having four independent cylinders, and the four sets of cylinders are arranged symmetrically in two rows. The distance between the two rows of cylinders is the same as the distance between the conveyor chain plates 20 of the noodle machine. The number of cylinders included in the cylinder group 37 is the same as the number of noodle cups that can be supported on the conveyor chain plate 20 of the noodle machine.

[0032] In one embodiment, the material feeding mechanism 40 includes a support frame 41, a second motor 42, a lead screw module 43, a first slider 44, a second slider 45, a push plate 46, and a mold 47.

[0035] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: During use, the double-row noodle machine production line operates two noodle machine conveyor chain plates 20 at each step. After the chain plates reach their positions, they stop moving. The front-end detection data transmits the defective product information to the cylinder at the bottom of the defective product (an independent cylinder in the cylinder group 37). The cylinder at the bottom of each product (noodle cup) is controlled individually. At the same time, the transmission component 31, in conjunction with the eccentric part 32 and the connecting rod 33, adjusts the seat plate 34 to the highest point and then stops. The cylinder below the qualified product does not rise out, while the cylinder below the defective product rises out to its position. Stop, and then the second motor 42 drives the first slider 44 and the second slider 45 on the lead screw module 43 to move relative to each other. Specifically, the push plate 46 and the mold 47 push the product to the first conveyor belt 51 and the second conveyor belt 52 on both sides to collect defective products. When the product reaches the first conveyor belt 51 and the second conveyor belt 52, the aforementioned lifting cylinder retracts. At the same time, the transmission component 31, together with the eccentric part 32 and the connecting rod 33, adjusts the seat plate 34 to the lowest position and then stops, waiting for the noodle machine conveyor chain plate 20 to run into position again.
