Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of packaging equipment technology, specifically to a material dispensing mechanism. Background Technology

[0002] In the instant noodle production industry, the precise delivery of seasoning packets (including condiment packets and vegetable packets) is a crucial step in ensuring product quality and production efficiency. However, existing technologies have the following significant drawbacks:

[0003] 1. Insufficient dispensing accuracy and high reliance on manual labor: Traditional material bag dispensing devices mostly use mechanical dispensing rollers or simple conveyor belt structures, relying on manual monitoring of the dispensing process. Due to production line vibration, unstable equipment performance, or human error, material bags are often missed, misplaced, or damaged.

[0004] 2. Low level of automation and intelligence. After a batch of material packages is conveyed, the machine needs to be stopped for automatic replenishment. Stopping the machine on a high-speed packaging production line will greatly affect packaging efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0005] In order to solve the technical problems existing in the prior art, this application provides a material package dispensing mechanism.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted in this application is as follows: a material package dispensing mechanism, comprising: a mounting base; a feeding mechanism, the feeding mechanism including a guide trough, a first transmission belt, and a pusher plate disposed on the mounting base, the guide trough including a feeding part and a dispensing part, the dispensing part being fixed on the mounting base and flipped onto the mounting base; the guide trough including two limiting plates symmetrically disposed on the mounting base, with a pushing gap between the two limiting plates, the first transmission belt being disposed within the pushing gap, and multiple pusher plates being evenly spaced on the first transmission belt; and a replenishing mechanism disposed on the mounting base, the replenishing mechanism being used to replenish the material for the feeding mechanism.

[0007] In some embodiments of this utility model, the mounting base is provided with a drive mechanism for driving the dispensing part to flip. The drive mechanism includes a bracket, a drive element, and a transmission assembly. The bracket is disposed on the mounting base, the drive element is disposed on the bracket, and the transmission assembly is connected to the drive element and the bracket respectively.

[0008] In some embodiments of this utility model, the transmission assembly includes an eccentric wheel, a connecting rod, a crossbar, a drive rod, and a tilting block. The eccentric wheel is located at the output end of the drive element, one end of the connecting rod is connected to the eccentric wheel, the crossbar is located at the other end of the connecting rod, and there are two drive rods, which are respectively located at both ends of the crossbar. The end of any drive rod away from the crossbar is connected to the dispensing part through the tilting block. The drive rod is used to drive the dispensing part to rotate around the mounting base.

[0009] In some embodiments of this utility model, the driving element is a servo motor.

[0010] In some embodiments of this utility model, the above-mentioned feeding mechanism includes a feeding trough, a second conveyor belt, and feeding plates. The output end of the feeding trough is connected to the input end of the guide trough. The feeding trough is provided with a receiving space for accommodating the second conveyor belt. The feeding plates are evenly spaced on the second conveyor belt and can move freely within the receiving space.

[0011] In some embodiments of this utility model, the above-mentioned feeding trough includes an inclined plate and a horizontal plate, the horizontal plate is disposed on the mounting base, and the inclined plate is disposed inclinedly on the horizontal plate.

[0012] In some embodiments of this utility model, the inclined plate and the horizontal plate are integrally formed. Beneficial effects

[0013] This utility model provides a material package dispensing mechanism, comprising: a mounting base; a feeding mechanism, the feeding mechanism including a guide trough, a first transmission belt, and push plates disposed on the mounting base, the guide trough including a feeding part and a dispensing part, the dispensing part being fixed on the mounting base and flipped onto the mounting base; the guide trough including two limiting plates symmetrically disposed on the mounting base, with a pushing gap between the two limiting plates, the first transmission belt disposed within the pushing gap, and multiple push plates evenly spaced on the first transmission belt; and a replenishing mechanism disposed on the mounting base, the replenishing mechanism being used to supplement the feeding mechanism with material. The mounting base is used to install and fix the feeding mechanism and the replenishing mechanism, facilitating their coordinated operation. After the strip-shaped material package pre-installed on the feeding mechanism is cut and dispensed, it is replenished by the replenishing mechanism, facilitating material replenishment without stopping the machine and improving the overall packaging efficiency. The aforementioned feeding mechanism is used to deliver material packets from the conveyor belt, positioning them directly above the instant noodle container to be filled. Then, the feeding section flips, causing the material packets to automatically fall into the container, thus achieving automatic feeding. The aforementioned replenishing mechanism is used to replenish material when the feeding mechanism is low on it.

[0028] Please refer to Figures 1-5 This embodiment provides a material package dispensing mechanism, including: a mounting base 1; a feeding mechanism, the feeding mechanism including a guide trough 2, a first transmission belt 3 and a pusher plate 4 disposed on the mounting base 1, the guide trough 2 including a feeding part 201 and a dispensing part 202, the dispensing part 202 being fixed on the mounting base 1 and flipped onto the mounting base 1; the guide trough 2 including two limiting plates symmetrically disposed on the mounting base 1, with a pushing gap 5 between the two limiting plates, the first transmission belt 3 being disposed within the pushing gap 5, and multiple pusher plates 4 being evenly spaced on the first transmission belt 3; and a replenishing mechanism disposed on the mounting base 1, the replenishing mechanism being used to replenish the material for the feeding mechanism.

[0029] In this embodiment, the mounting base 1 is used to install and fix the feeding mechanism and the replenishing mechanism, so that the two can work together. After the strip material package pre-installed on the feeding mechanism is cut and delivered, the replenishing mechanism delivers replenished material, which facilitates replenishment without stopping the machine and improves the packaging efficiency of the whole machine.

[0030] In this embodiment, the feeding mechanism is used to deliver the material package via a conveyor belt, positioning it directly above the instant noodle container to be filled. Then, the delivery unit 202 is flipped, allowing the material package to automatically fall into the instant noodle container, thus achieving automatic feeding. Specifically, the guide trough 2 is used to guide and convey the cut individual material packages. The feeding unit 201 works in conjunction with the first transmission belt 3 to transport the material package to the delivery unit 202, which, after flipping, directly delivers it into the instant noodle container. The push plate 4 is used to limit the material to be delivered, and a delivery unit is formed between two adjacent push plates 4, which accommodates a single material package.

[0031] In this embodiment, the above-mentioned replenishing mechanism is used to replenish materials when the feeding mechanism is short of materials. During the replenishing period, the feeding mechanism is fed, thereby enabling feeding without stopping the machine and greatly improving the packaging efficiency.

[0032] Please refer to Figure 3 In some embodiments of this example, the mounting base 1 is provided with a drive mechanism for driving the dispensing part 202 to flip. The drive mechanism includes a bracket 6, a drive element 7 and a transmission assembly. The bracket 6 is disposed on the mounting base 1, the drive element 7 is disposed on the bracket 6, and the transmission assembly is connected to the drive element 7 and the bracket 6 respectively.

[0033] In this embodiment, the aforementioned drive mechanism is used to drive the dispensing unit 202 to flip, facilitating material feeding and resetting after feeding, thus ensuring continuous material dispensing. Specifically, the aforementioned bracket 6 is used to mount the aforementioned drive assembly and transmission assembly, facilitating their coordinated operation for flipping the dispensing unit 202. The aforementioned drive element 7 provides a power source for the entire drive mechanism, outputting power to precisely control the flipping and feeding of the dispensing unit 202. After feeding, it resets to prepare for secondary feeding, improving the accuracy and efficiency of feeding. The aforementioned transmission assembly transmits the kinetic energy output by the drive element 7 to the dispensing unit 202.

[0034] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2In some embodiments of this example, the transmission assembly includes an eccentric wheel 8, a connecting rod 9, a crossbar 10, a drive rod 11, and a flipping block 12. The eccentric wheel 8 is located at the output end of the drive element 7. One end of the connecting rod 9 is connected to the eccentric wheel 8. The crossbar 10 is located at the other end of the connecting rod 9. There are two drive rods 11, which are respectively located at both ends of the crossbar 10. The end of any drive rod 11 away from the crossbar 10 is connected to the dispensing part 202 through the flipping block 12. The drive rod 11 is used to drive the dispensing part 202 to rotate around the mounting base 1.

[0035] In this embodiment, the eccentric wheel 8 is a disk whose center of mass is offset from the geometric center. When the driving element 7 drives it to rotate, the eccentric mass generates a periodic centrifugal force, which is converted into linear reciprocating motion through the connecting rod 9. The crossbar 10 is used to connect the connecting rod 9 and the driving rod 11, and is used to synchronously drive the two driving rods 11 to move up and down, thereby driving the limiting plates on both sides of the first transmission belt to flip, thereby discharging the material bag. The flipping block 12 is used to fix on the limiting plate of the discharging part 202. By pulling the flipping block 12, the limiting plate can be rotated around the bracket 6, thereby discharging the material bag.

[0036] Please refer to Figure 1 In some embodiments of this example, the driving element 7 is a servo motor.

[0037] In this embodiment, the aforementioned servo motor refers to an engine that controls the operation of mechanical components in a servo system; it is a type of auxiliary motor indirect speed-changing device. The servo motor can control speed with very high positional accuracy, and can convert voltage signals into torque and speed to drive the controlled object. The excellent control accuracy of the aforementioned servo motor makes it an ideal material for the drive element 7, but it is not limited to the aforementioned servo motor material; other materials with similar performance can also be used.

[0038] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 3 In some embodiments of this example, the above-mentioned feeding mechanism includes a feeding trough 13, a second conveyor belt 14, and a feeding plate 15. The output end of the feeding trough 13 is connected to the input end of the guide trough 2. The feeding trough 13 is provided with a receiving space 16 for accommodating the second conveyor belt 14. The feeding plates 15 are evenly spaced on the second conveyor belt 14 and can move freely within the receiving space 16.

[0039] In this embodiment, the aforementioned replenishing trough 13 is used to supplement the material bag conveyed to the guide trough 2, enabling the feeding mechanism to maintain normal production feeding and ensuring the delivery of material bags while the feeding mechanism is loading, thereby effectively improving its operating efficiency. The aforementioned second transmission belt is used to transfer kinetic energy to the replenishing material bag, thereby pushing the replenishing material bag onto the guide trough 2 through the replenishing plate 15, thus ensuring continuous feeding of material without stopping the feeding mechanism.

[0040] Please refer to Figure 5 In some embodiments of this example, the feeding trough 13 includes an inclined plate 1301 and a horizontal plate 1302. The horizontal plate 1302 is disposed on the mounting base 1, and the inclined plate 1301 is inclinedly disposed on the horizontal plate 1302.

[0041] In this embodiment, the inclined plate 1301 is used to guide the individual material packages into the replenishment trough 13, allowing them to enter the replenishment trough 13 smoothly, and can also slide freely for an appropriate distance to facilitate subsequent feeding. The horizontal plate 1302 is used to lift and limit the replenishment packages, facilitating the pushing of the packages onto the feeding mechanism for feeding.

[0042] Please refer to Figure 5 In some embodiments of this example, the inclined plate 1301 and the horizontal plate 1302 are integrally formed.

[0043] In this embodiment, the above-mentioned integral molding technology is a manufacturing process that integrates multiple components into a single integral structure through a single processing step, thereby reducing the number of bolts and welds and lowering the assembly complexity.

[0044] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this application and is not intended to limit this application. Various modifications and variations can be made to this application by those skilled in the art. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this application should be included within the protection scope of this application.
