Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of conveying system technology, and in particular to a material handling conveyor line with multi-layer silos. Background Technology

[0002] During the transport of materials (such as bagged food), a conveyor line is generally used for transportation, in conjunction with another set of packaging conveyors with grids to transport the materials in groups before packaging. In this process, it is necessary to control the number of bagged food items falling into the grids. The existing method utilizes the height difference, aligning the end of the conveyor line with the grids of the packaging conveyor passing below. Once a certain number of items have fallen, the packaging conveyor moves the package to the next empty grid, allowing for the collection of the next group of materials.

[0003] However, two problems exist in this process: First, it is difficult to ensure the position of the falling material. After falling using the height difference, there is a possibility of positional deviation, resulting in one group of adjacent grids having less material and the other having more, leading to uneven material distribution. Even if the height difference is small, the position of the material on the conveyor belt is not fixed, sometimes to the left or right, making it difficult to align with the bottom grid. If it falls onto the partition between the grids, the problem of uneven material distribution will still occur. Second, when the height difference is large, the quality of the material after falling may be damaged. For example, in the case of bagged instant noodles, there is a possibility of the noodle cake breaking, affecting the quality of the food, which needs to be improved.

[0004] Therefore, in view of the shortcomings of the above solution in actual production and implementation, it has been modified and improved. At the same time, in the spirit and concept of seeking the best, with the assistance of professional knowledge and experience, and after a lot of ingenuity and testing, a material handling conveyor line with multiple silos is specially provided to solve the technical problem that it is difficult to keep the material uniform during packaging and transportation, which may affect the quality. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a material handling conveyor line with multi-layer silos to solve the technical problem that it is difficult to maintain uniformity during the packaging and transportation of materials, which may affect the quality.

[0006] The technical solution of this utility model is implemented as follows:

[0007] A material handling conveyor line with multi-layer silos includes a conveyor line and a conveyor belt. The discharge end of the conveyor line and the inlet end of the conveyor belt are arranged adjacent to each other, and their conveying planes are continuously connected. The material handling silo frame and the material handling silo mechanism on the silo frame include at least one set of multi-layer silos.

[0008] The multi-layer silo includes two parallel silo wall panels. Cylinder supports are provided on the left and right sides of each of the two silo wall panels. Three horizontal push cylinders are arranged longitudinally on each cylinder support. The three horizontal push cylinders on the left are each connected to a first horizontal storage plate. The horizontal push cylinder on the top right is connected to an inclined guide plate. The other two horizontal push cylinders on the right are respectively connected to a second horizontal storage plate. The end of the guide plate cooperates with the first horizontal storage plate on the top left to form a first material temporary storage layer. The other two first horizontal storage plates on the left and the two second horizontal storage plates on the right are positioned correspondingly and cooperate to form a temporary storage layer. The silo wall panels are provided with passage spaces for the first horizontal storage plate, the second horizontal storage plate, and the guide plate to pass through.

[0009] In a preferred embodiment, the cylinder bracket is fixed to the hopper wall panel on the hopper frame.

[0010] In a preferred embodiment, the conveyor belt is equipped with a detection sensor for detecting materials passing through it.

[0011] In a preferred embodiment, the tail end of the conveyor belt corresponds to the position of the guide plate, and the material conveyed by the conveyor belt falls onto the guide plate of the material handling hopper mechanism.

[0012] In one preferred embodiment, the conveyor lines are provided with three lines, each with a corresponding conveyor belt. The material handling silo mechanism includes three sets of multi-layer silos, each multi-layer silo corresponding to a conveyor belt.

[0013] The end of the guide plate cooperates with the first horizontal storage plate on the top left to form the first temporary storage layer. The other two first horizontal storage plates on the left and the two second horizontal storage plates on the right are positioned corresponding to each other and cooperate to form the second and third temporary storage layers.

[0014] In use, materials are conveyed sequentially to the guide plates of the multi-layer silos via a conveyor belt. Taking a group of 6 as an example, when the guide plate is full of 3, the horizontal push cylinders on the left and right control the first horizontal storage plate and guide plate of the first temporary storage layer to open to both sides, and the 3 materials fall into the second temporary storage layer. When the first temporary storage layer is full of 3, this action is repeated. At this time, there are 6 materials in the second temporary storage layer, so the second temporary storage layer also opens to both sides, and the 6 materials fall into the third temporary storage layer. When the grids of the packaging conveyor below are aligned, the third temporary storage layer opens, and the materials fall precisely into the bottom grid.

[0015] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0016] The material handling and conveying line with multi-layer hoppers provided by this utility model has the following significant advantages compared with the prior art:

[0017] 1. Precise material distribution avoids uneven material distribution;

[0018] Through a multi-layered storage and release mechanism (first temporary storage layer, second temporary storage layer, and third temporary storage layer), the material falls layer by layer under the precise control of the horizontal push cylinder, ensuring that the amount of material falling into the bottom packaging conveyor grid is strictly consistent each time, avoiding offset or misalignment caused by free fall.

[0019] The coordinated operation of the guide plate and the horizontal storage plate ensures that the material always moves along the predetermined path, solving the problem of uneven material distribution caused by the non-fixed position of the material (either left or right) in the traditional height difference material dropping method, and effectively preventing the material from falling into adjacent grids or partitions.

[0020] 2. Reduces the risk of material damage and ensures product quality;

[0021] Adopting a multi-stage buffer storage design, the material smoothly transitions from the conveyor line to the storage layer via the guide plate, and then falls layer by layer through the smooth opening and closing of the horizontal push cylinder. There is no free fall impact throughout the process, which is especially suitable for fragile materials (such as bagged instant noodles), significantly reducing quality problems such as noodle breakage.

[0022] Compared to traditional methods of material dropping with large height differences, this invention greatly reduces the risk of material breakage due to high-speed impact by using a segmented slow-descent structure.

[0023] 3. High degree of automation, improving production efficiency;

[0024] By monitoring the material conveying status in real time through sensors and combining it with the automatic control of the horizontal push cylinder, accurate counting and layered management of materials can be achieved, reducing the need for manual intervention.

[0025] The parallel design of three sets of multi-layer silos (as described in the preferred embodiment) can handle multiple material flows simultaneously, greatly improving sorting and packaging efficiency and making it suitable for large-scale production scenarios.

[0026] 4. Compact structure and strong adaptability;

[0027] The modular design of the hopper rack and cylinder support makes it easy to adjust the number of layers according to the material size or packaging specifications (such as adding or removing temporary storage layers), and flexibly adapt to packaging conveying devices of different specifications.

[0028] In summary, this utility model, through its multi-layered, stepped material handling mechanism, ensures uniform material distribution while protecting the integrity of the materials, effectively solving the two major technical problems of "uneven material distribution" and "quality damage" in the prior art described in the background. It has significant practical value and potential for widespread application. Attached Figure Description

Therefore, a feature defined with "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one of those features.

[0039] In the description of the embodiments, unless otherwise expressly specified and limited, the terms "set," "connect," etc., should be interpreted broadly. For example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be a direct connection or a connection through an intermediate medium, or it can be a connection within two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model based on the specific circumstances.

[0040] like Figures 1-5 As shown, the material handling conveyor line with multi-layer silos 4 includes a conveyor line 1 and a conveyor belt 2. The discharge end of the conveyor line 1 and the feed end of the conveyor belt 2 are arranged adjacent to each other, and the conveying planes of the two are continuously connected. It includes a silo frame 9 and a material handling silo mechanism 3 on the silo frame 9. The material handling silo mechanism 3 includes at least one set of multi-layer silos 4.

[0041] The multi-layer silo 4 includes two parallel silo wall panels 12. Cylinder supports 7 are provided on the left and right sides of each of the two silo wall panels 12. Three horizontal push cylinders 6 are arranged longitudinally on each cylinder support 7. The three horizontal push cylinders 6 on the left are each connected to a first horizontal storage plate 8. The horizontal push cylinder 6 at the top right is connected to an inclined guide plate 10. The other two horizontal push cylinders 6 on the right are respectively connected to second horizontal storage plates 11. The end of the guide plate 10 cooperates with the first horizontal storage plate 8 at the top left to form a first material temporary storage layer. The other two first horizontal storage plates on the left and the two second horizontal storage plates 11 on the right are positioned correspondingly and cooperate to form a temporary storage layer. The silo wall panel 12 is provided with a passage space 13 for the first horizontal storage plate 8, the second horizontal storage plate, and the guide plate 10 to pass through.

[0042] The cylinder bracket 7 is fixed to the hopper wall panel 12 on the hopper frame 9.

[0043] The conveyor belt 2 is equipped with a detection sensor 5 for detecting materials passing through it.

[0044] The tail end of the conveyor belt corresponds to the position of the guide plate 10. The material conveyed by the conveyor belt 2 falls onto the guide plate 10 of the material handling hopper mechanism 3.

[0045] There are three conveyor lines, each of which is equipped with a corresponding conveyor belt 2. The material handling and silo mechanism 3 includes three sets of multi-layer silos 4, each of which corresponds to a conveyor belt 2.

[0046] The end of the guide plate 10 cooperates with the first horizontal storage plate 8 on the top left to form a first temporary storage layer. The other two first horizontal storage plates on the left and the two second horizontal storage plates 11 on the right are positioned corresponding to each other and cooperate to form a second temporary storage layer and a third temporary storage layer.

[0047] In use, the materials in conveyor line 1 are sequentially transported to the guide plate 10 of the multi-layer silo 4 by conveyor belt 2. Taking a group of 6 as an example, when the guide plate 10 is full of 3, the horizontal push cylinders 6 on the left and right control the first horizontal storage plate 8 and the guide plate 10 of the first temporary storage layer to open to both sides, and the 3 materials fall into the second temporary storage layer. When the materials in the first temporary storage layer are full of 3, this action is repeated. At this time, there are 6 materials in the second temporary storage layer, so the second temporary storage layer also opens to both sides, and the 6 materials fall into the third temporary storage layer. When the grids of the packaging conveyor below are aligned, the third temporary storage layer opens and the materials fall precisely into the bottom grid.

[0048] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0049] The material handling and conveying line 1 with multi-layer hoppers 4 provided by this utility model has the following significant advantages compared with the prior art:

[0050] 1. Precise material distribution avoids uneven material distribution;

[0051] Through the stepped storage and release mechanism of the multi-layer silo 4 structure (first temporary storage layer, second temporary storage layer, and third temporary storage layer), the material falls layer by layer under the precise control of the horizontal push cylinder 6, ensuring that the amount of material falling into the bottom packaging conveyor grid is strictly consistent each time, and avoiding offset or misalignment caused by free fall.

[0052] The coordinated operation of the guide plate 10 and the horizontal storage plate ensures that the material always moves along the predetermined path, solving the problem of uneven material distribution caused by the non-fixed position of the material (either left or right) in the traditional height difference material dropping method, and effectively preventing the material from falling into adjacent grids or partitions.

[0053] 2. Reduces the risk of material damage and ensures product quality;

[0054] Adopting a multi-stage buffer storage design, the material smoothly transitions from the conveyor line to the storage layer via the guide plate 10, and then falls layer by layer through the smooth opening and closing of the horizontal push cylinder 6. There is no free fall impact throughout the process, which is especially suitable for fragile materials (such as bagged instant noodles), significantly reducing quality problems such as noodle breakage.

[0055] Compared to traditional methods of material dropping with large height differences, this invention greatly reduces the risk of material breakage due to high-speed impact by using a segmented slow-descent structure.

[0056] 3. High degree of automation, improving production efficiency;

[0057] By monitoring the material conveying status in real time through sensor 5 and combining it with the automatic control of the horizontal push cylinder 6, accurate counting and layered management of materials can be achieved, reducing the need for manual intervention.

[0058] The parallel design of three sets of multi-layer silos 4 (as in the preferred embodiment) can handle multiple material flows at the same time, greatly improving sorting and packaging efficiency, and is suitable for large-scale production scenarios.

[0059] 4. Compact structure and strong adaptability;

[0060] The modular design of the hopper rack 9 and cylinder support 7 makes it easy to adjust the number of layers according to the material size or packaging specifications (such as adding or reducing temporary storage layers), and flexibly adapt to packaging conveying devices of different specifications.

[0061] In summary, this utility model, through the stepped material handling mechanism of the multi-layer silo 4, ensures uniform material distribution while protecting the integrity of the materials, effectively solving the two major technical problems of "uneven material distribution" and "quality damage" in the prior art. It has significant practical value and promotion potential.

[0062] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model and is not intended to limit the utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, or improvements made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model. Furthermore, the technical solutions of the various embodiments can be combined with each other, but this must be based on the ability of those skilled in the art to implement them. When the combination of technical solutions is contradictory or cannot be implemented, it should be considered that such a combination of technical solutions does not exist and is not within the protection scope claimed by this utility model.
