Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the technical field of packaging equipment, specifically a crayfish weighing and packaging machine. Background Technology

[0002] As a popular aquatic product, crayfish farming, processing, and sales have seen their scale expand year by year. In the commercial distribution of crayfish, grading and packaging by weight is a key process for increasing product added value and meeting the needs of different consumption scenarios (such as catering procurement, retail packaging, and e-commerce sales). For example, restaurants may require crayfish of uniform size to ensure optimal cooking results, while the retail market needs packaging with different weight ranges for consumers to choose from. Therefore, precise weighing and efficient packaging of crayfish are essential.

[0003] In the traditional method, workers need to manually select crayfish, weigh them one by one using a platform scale or electronic scale, and then sort, bag or box them according to the preset weight range. This process relies on manual judgment, which is not only labor-intensive, but also has a limited processing capacity per hour, usually only a few hundred crayfish per hour, making it difficult to meet the needs of large-scale production and resulting in low packaging efficiency.

[0027] It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described in this application can be combined with each other. This application will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0028] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the present application, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present application, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort should fall within the scope of protection of the present application.

[0029] like Figure 1-2 As shown, this application provides a crayfish weighing and packaging machine, including a conveying component 1. The conveying component 1 includes a first conveyor body 11. The conveying component 1 is the starting point of the entire equipment. The conveyor belt of the first conveyor body 11 (not marked in the figure) is made of non-slip and wear-resistant rubber material, and the surface is provided with fine textures, which can increase the friction between the crayfish and prevent the crayfish from slipping and falling during the conveying process.

[0030] Multiple first mounting seats 12 are fixedly installed on both sides of the first conveyor body 11. These first mounting seats 12 are connected to the conveyor body by welding, which is firm and stable. A first guide rod 13 is fixedly installed on one side of each of the multiple first mounting seats 12. The first guide rod 13 is a stainless steel round rod with good rigidity.

[0031] A first guide plate 14 is installed at one end of the first guide rods 13 on both sides of the first conveyor body 11, close to each other. The first guide plate 14 is made of transparent acrylic sheet, which makes it easy for operators to observe the conveying of crayfish. Its edges are polished and smooth without burrs to prevent scratching the crayfish. A channel for conveying crayfish is formed between the two first guide plates 14. A first inclined plate 15 is fixedly installed on one side of the first conveyor body 11.

[0032] The first inclined plate 15 is also made of stainless steel with a polished surface. The inclined angle has been optimized to about 30 degrees, which can ensure that the crayfish can slide down smoothly, while avoiding the crayfish from rolling down too fast and getting injured due to excessive inclination, thus guiding the crayfish to fall into the subsequent equipment.

[0033] like Figure 2 As shown, a weighing assembly 2 is installed on one side of the first conveyor body 11. The weighing assembly 2 includes a belt weighing machine body 21, which receives crayfish from the conveyor assembly 1. The belt weighing machine body 21 integrates a high-precision weighing sensor (not shown in the figure), with a weighing accuracy of ±1 gram, accurately measuring the weight of each crayfish. The conveyor belt of the belt weighing machine body 21 is made of food-grade material, and its operating speed can be adjusted according to actual needs to ensure sufficient time to complete the weighing operation.

[0034] Multiple second mounting seats 22 are fixedly installed on both sides of the belt weighing machine body 21. The structure of the second mounting seats 22 is the same as that of the first mounting seat 12. A second guide rod 23 is fixedly installed on one side of each of the multiple second mounting seats 22. A second guide plate 24 is installed at the end of the second guide rod 23 on both sides of the belt weighing machine body 21 that is close to each other. A channel for conveying crayfish is formed between the two second guide plates 24 to ensure that the crayfish can pass through smoothly during the weighing process and to prevent the crayfish from falling. A second inclined plate 25 is fixedly installed on one side of the belt weighing machine body 21 to smoothly guide the weighed crayfish to the dispensing component 3.

[0035] like Figure 3 As shown, a sorting component 3 is provided on one side of the belt weighing machine body 21. The sorting component 3 includes a second conveyor body 31. The conveying speed of the second conveyor body 31 is matched with that of the belt weighing machine body 21 to ensure that the crayfish can enter the sorting stage in an orderly manner. The conveyor belt of the second conveyor body 31 adopts a smooth design to reduce the friction between the conveyor belt and the crayfish.

[0036] Multiple cylinders 32 are fixedly installed on one side of the second conveyor body 31. The cylinders 32 are firmly connected to the conveyor body by bolts. The selected cylinders 32 are characterized by fast response speed and stable thrust. An arc-shaped push plate 33 is fixedly installed at the output end of each cylinder 32. The arc of the push plate 33 is larger than the body size of the crayfish. The protective pad on the arc-shaped push plate 33 is made of food-grade silicone material. The silicone is soft and has good elasticity, which can buffer the impact of the push plate on the crayfish and prevent damage to the crayfish during the pushing process.

[0037] Multiple discharge plates 35 are fixedly installed on the other side of the second conveyor body 31. The positions of the discharge plates 35 correspond one-to-one with the cylinders 32, and each discharge plate 35 corresponds to a crayfish in a specific weight range. The discharge plates 35 are made of stainless steel with a smooth surface, and their tilt angle is approximately 30 degrees to facilitate the rapid sliding of crayfish. Two limiting plates 34 are fixedly installed on one side of the discharge plate 35. The two limiting plates 34 are installed at an angle towards both sides of the discharge plate 35, forming a gradually converging guide structure, which can effectively guide the crayfish to accurately enter the discharge plate 35 and prevent the crayfish from deviating from the direction and falling.

[0038] Multiple position sensors 36, fixedly installed on the other side of the second conveyor body 31, employ infrared sensing technology, are highly sensitive, and can detect the position of the crayfish in real time. When the position sensor 36 detects that a crayfish has reached a preset position, it immediately sends a signal to the control system. The control system determines which discharge plate 35 the crayfish should enter based on the weight information transmitted from the belt weighing machine body 21, and then activates the corresponding cylinder 32 to push the arc-shaped pusher plate 33 into the corresponding discharge plate 35.

[0039] like Figure 3 As shown, a storage component 4 is provided on one side of the second conveyor body 31. The storage component 4 is used to collect crayfish of different weight ranges. The storage component 4 includes a support frame 41, which is welded from high-strength steel, has a stable structure, and can withstand the weight of multiple storage frames 42. The upper surface of the support frame 41 is flattened to ensure that the storage frames 42 are placed stably. The multiple storage frames 42 are made of food-grade plastic, which is lightweight and easy to clean. Each storage frame 42 is placed corresponding to the discharge plate 35, and can accurately receive the crayfish that slide out of the discharge plate 35.

[0040] The crayfish are conveyed by the first conveyor body 11 of the conveying assembly 1, and neatly enter the channel under the guidance of the first guide plate 14. Then, they slide into the belt weighing machine body 21 of the weighing assembly 2 via the first inclined plate 15. The belt weighing machine body 21 weighs the crayfish while conveying them and transmits the weight information to the control system. The crayfish then enter the second conveyor body 31 of the dispensing assembly 3 via the second inclined plate 25.

[0041] On the second conveyor body 31, the position sensor 36 detects the position of the crayfish in real time. When the crayfish reaches the designated position, the control system combines the weighing information to control the corresponding cylinder 32 to move, so that the arc-shaped pusher 33 pushes the crayfish into the corresponding discharge plate 35. Finally, the crayfish slides into the corresponding storage box 42 in the storage component 4 through the discharge plate 35, thereby realizing the process of automatically sorting the crayfish by weight.

[0042] Working principle: First, start the equipment to put the conveying component 1, weighing component 2, dispensing component 3, and storage component 4 into working condition. The operator places the crayfish to be processed on the conveyor belt of the first conveyor body 11. Because the conveyor belt is made of non-slip and wear-resistant rubber material, the fine texture on the surface increases the friction between the belt and the crayfish, preventing the crayfish from slipping or falling off during the conveying process.

[0043] Meanwhile, the first guide plates 14 on both sides of the first conveyor body 11 form a conveying channel. The transparent acrylic material allows operators to observe the conveying of crayfish at any time, while the smooth edges, after being polished, prevent the crayfish from being scratched. The crayfish move neatly towards the first inclined plate 15 in the channel.

[0044] When the crayfish reaches the end of the first conveyor body 11, it slides down the 30-degree inclined first ramp 15. The stainless steel material and polished surface allow the crayfish to slide smoothly into the belt weighing machine body 21 of the weighing component 2. At this time, the high-precision weighing sensor integrated in the belt weighing machine body 21 starts to work, with a weighing accuracy of ±1 gram, which can accurately measure the weight of each crayfish.

[0045] During the weighing process, the second guide plates 24 on both sides of the belt weighing machine body 21 form a stable conveying channel to prevent the crayfish from falling. The food-grade conveyor belt runs at an appropriate speed to ensure that there is enough time to complete the weighing. The weight information is transmitted to the control system in real time.

[0046] After weighing, the crayfish smoothly enter the second conveyor body 31 of the packaging assembly 3 via the second inclined plate 25. The conveying speed of the second conveyor body 31 is matched with that of the belt weighing machine body 21 to ensure that the crayfish enter the packaging stage in an orderly manner. When the crayfish moves to a preset position on the second conveyor body 31, the position sensor 36, which uses infrared sensing technology, will immediately detect it and send a signal to the control system. The control system, combined with the previously received weight information, determines the weight range to which the crayfish belongs and then activates the corresponding cylinder 32.

[0047] The arc-shaped pusher plate 33 at the output end of cylinder 32 moves rapidly. Because the arc of the pusher plate 33 is larger than the size of the crayfish, and the food-grade silicone protective pad on its surface is soft and elastic, it can effectively buffer the impact and prevent damage to the crayfish. The arc-shaped pusher plate 33 smoothly pushes the crayfish into the corresponding discharge plate 35. The limiting plates 34 on both sides of the discharge plate 35 form a gradually converging guide structure to ensure that the crayfish accurately enters the discharge plate 35 and then slides out along the 30-degree inclined stainless steel discharge plate 35.

[0048] Finally, the crayfish will fall into the corresponding storage box 42 in the storage component 4. The storage box 42 is made of food-grade plastic and is placed on a support frame 41 welded from high-strength steel, which is stable and easy to clean. As the equipment continues to operate, crayfish of different weight ranges will be collected into the corresponding storage box 42, realizing automatic, efficient and safe sorting of crayfish by weight.

[0049] 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.
