Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of hot pot base packaging technology, and in particular to a hot pot base packing and transfer device. Background Technology
[0002] Hot pot base is typically packaged in buckets or boxes, both of which involve manual transfer. The packaged hot pot base is then transported to the packaging location via a cold chain. During packaging, operators place the hot pot base bag by bag into the box, with a certain gap between the box and the end of the cold chain. Transferring each bag individually can easily lead to errors in counting the number of bags filled. Furthermore, the frequent filling operations increase the workload of the operators. Utility Model Content
[0003] This utility model provides a hot pot base packing and transfer device to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art, solve the problems of inconvenience in counting during filling and high workload for operators, and has strong practicality.
[0004] In order to achieve the purpose of this utility model, the following technology is proposed to be adopted:
[0005] A hot pot base packing and transfer device includes a pair of side plates spaced apart from each other and of equal length. A first end plate is welded between one end of the side plates, and two pairs of slots with an inverted L-shaped structure are opened at the other end of the side plates.
[0006] A second end plate is provided between the other ends of the side plates. The two sides of the second end plate are formed with locking protrusions, which pass through the locking grooves.
[0007] The lower end of the side plate is bent outward to form an outward protrusion plate, and a connecting screw is threaded onto the outward protrusion plate with the end cap of the connecting screw facing downward. A lower retaining plate is movably provided at the lower end of the side plate, and an oblong hole is provided on the lower retaining plate. The length direction of the oblong hole is perpendicular to the length direction of the lower retaining plate.
[0008] Furthermore, the upper end of the second end plate is bent outward to form a lifting plate.
[0009] Furthermore, a pair of vertical plates spaced apart from each other are welded to the outer wall of the side plate. An upper horizontal plate is provided between the upper ends of the vertical plates. A pair of guide rods are passed through the upper horizontal plate. An upper pull horizontal plate is welded to the lower end of the guide rods. Lifting arms are fixed to both ends of the upper pull horizontal plate by screws. Pull rods are welded to the lower ends of the lifting arms. End shafts are formed at both ends of the pull rods. An outer vertical plate is welded to the outer side of the lower plate. An outer extension plate is formed by bending the upper end of the outer vertical plate outward. An outer pull plate is formed by bending the outer end of the outer extension plate upward. Side end plates are bent on both sides of the outer pull plate. An oblique hole is opened on the side end plate. The upper end of the oblique hole extends inward at an inward angle. The end shaft passes through the oblique hole.
[0010] Furthermore, a spring is fitted onto the guide rod, with the spring located between the upper horizontal plate and the upper pull horizontal plate.
[0011] The advantages of the above technical solution are:
[0012] This invention utilizes a container comprised of side plates, a first end plate, a second end plate, and a lower retaining plate. This container can hold a predetermined quantity of hot pot base, ensuring that a fixed amount of hot pot base is added to the packaging box each time, thus solving the problem of counting errors. Furthermore, by adding multiple portions of hot pot base each time, the workload of the operators is reduced. In addition, the movable second end plate allows operators to place the hot pot base upright between the side plates, and during transfer, the second end plate is inserted into the side plates to prevent the hot pot base from falling out.
[0013] When dispensing, this utility model requires pulling the upper horizontal plate upwards to move the two lower clamping plates outwards, thereby eliminating the support for the lower end of the hot pot base and allowing the hot pot base to be discharged downwards into the packaging box. This simplifies the filling operation and improves filling efficiency. Attached Figure Description
[0014] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the following will provide a further detailed description of this utility model in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.
[0015] Figure 1 A three-dimensional structure of one embodiment is shown. Figure 1 .
[0016] Figure 2 A magnified view of point A is shown.
[0017] Figure 3 A magnified view of point B is shown.
[0018] Figure 4 A three-dimensional structure of one embodiment is shown. Figure 2 . Detailed Implementation
[0019] like Figures 1-4 As shown, a hot pot base packing and transfer device includes a pair of side plates 1 spaced apart from each other and of equal length. A first end plate 10 is welded between one end of the side plates 1, and two pairs of inverted L-shaped slots 11 are provided at the other end of the side plates 1. A second end plate 2 is provided between the other ends of the side plates 1. The two sides of the second end plate 2 are formed with latching protrusions 21, which pass through the slots 11. The upper end of the second end plate 2 is bent outward to form a lifting plate 20.
[0020] The lower end of the side plate 1 is bent outward to form an outward protruding plate 37. A connecting screw 38 is threaded onto the outward protruding plate 37. The end cap of the connecting screw 38 is set downward. A lower clamping plate 39 is movably provided at the lower end of the side plate 1. A waist-shaped hole 40 is opened on the lower clamping plate 39. The length direction of the waist-shaped hole 40 is perpendicular to the length direction of the lower clamping plate 39.
[0021] A pair of vertical plates 3 spaced apart are welded to the outer wall of the side plate 1. An upper horizontal plate 30 is provided between the upper ends of the vertical plates 3. A pair of guide rods 31 are passed through the upper horizontal plate 30. An upper pull horizontal plate 32 is welded to the lower end of the guide rods 31. A lifting arm 33 is fixed to both ends of the upper pull horizontal plate 32 by screws. A pull rod 34 is welded to the lower end of the lifting arm 33. An end shaft 35 is formed at both ends of the pull rod 34. An outer vertical plate 41 is welded to the outer side of the lower clamping plate 39. An outer extension plate 42 is formed by bending the upper end of the outer vertical plate 41 outward. An outer pull plate 43 is formed by bending the outer end of the outer extension plate 42 upward. Side end plates 44 are bent on both sides of the outer pull plate 43. An oblique hole 45 is opened on the side end plate 44. The upper end of the oblique hole 45 extends inward at an inclination. The end shaft 35 passes through the oblique hole 45.
[0022] Optionally, a spring is fitted on the guide rod 31, with the spring located between the upper horizontal plate 30 and the upper pull horizontal plate 32.
[0023] During application, one operator places the hot pot base vertically in the transfer device until the rated quantity is reached. Then, another operator transfers the transfer device containing the hot pot base into the packaging box and removes the support at the bottom of the hot pot base, allowing it to fall naturally into the packaging box.
[0024] When placing the hot pot base: the operator first lifts the second end plate 2 upwards and then pulls it outwards. Then the operator places the hot pot base vertically on the lower card plate 39 and between the side plate 1 until the carrying limit of the transfer device is reached. Then the operator aligns the card protrusion 21 of the second end plate 2 with the horizontal opening end of the card groove 11, and then moves the second end plate 2 inwards and then downwards so that the card protrusion 21 is located at the lower end of the vertical section of the card groove 11.
[0025] During the transfer and loading of hot pot base: When the hot pot base is being transferred, the upper horizontal plate 32 is kept at its lower end due to the force of the spring, and the lower wall of the upper horizontal plate 32 abuts against the upper end of the side plate 1. During transfer, the operator can transfer the hot pot base by holding the upper horizontal plate 30. During packing, the operator pulls the upper horizontal plate 32 upwards, compressing the spring and moving the end shaft 35 within the inclined hole 45. This causes the lower clamping plate 39 to move outwards until its upper wall loses support for the hot pot base, after which the designated quantity of hot pot base will be packed into the packaging box.
[0026] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model and is not intended to limit the scope of this utility model. Obviously, those skilled in the art can make various modifications and variations to this utility model without departing from its spirit and scope. Therefore, if these modifications and variations of this utility model fall within the scope of the claims of this utility model and their equivalents, this utility model also intends to include these modifications and variations.
