Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of can opener technology, and more specifically, to an automatic can opener. Background Technology

[0002] Food processing follows strict processing and production standards. In the processing and distribution of raw materials, semi-finished products and finished products, it is necessary to ensure processing safety and avoid contamination of raw materials, semi-finished products and finished products. Therefore, the trend of modern food processing is towards automation and closed systems. The production of canned food is also developing towards semi-automation and full automation. Production lines that can automatically add finished products into empty cans and then automatically seal them have already appeared on the market.

[0003] Most existing can openers are single-head can openers, which are inefficient and require a lot of manual operation, including manual loading and unloading and manual cutting. This results in low production efficiency and a significant increase in can cutting costs.

[0004] The preceding description is intended to provide general background information and does not necessarily constitute prior art. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide an automatic can opener that enables automatic feeding and discharging, thereby increasing production efficiency and saving labor costs.

[0006] This utility model provides an automatic can opener, including a frame, cap pickers, clamping devices, conveying devices, an electrical control box, and a control display. The control display is mounted on the frame, and the electrical control box is connected to the bottom surface inside the frame. The conveying device is connected above the electrical control box inside the frame, and the clamping device is located above the conveying device. Multiple cap pickers are located above the clamping devices. The cap pickers, clamping devices, conveying devices, and control display are all connected to the electrical control box. The automatic can opener also includes an automatic feeding device and a receiving bin. The automatic feeding device is installed between the cap pickers and the clamping devices, and the receiving bin is installed on the frame in front of the automatic feeding device. The automatic feeding device is used to push the can caps picked up by the cap pickers to the receiving bin.

[0007] Further, the frame includes a frame, columns, a worktable, and a mounting plate. The mounting plate is rectangular, and six cap removers are installed on the mounting plate at equal intervals. Columns are vertically connected to the four corners below the mounting plate, and the other end of each column is connected to the worktable. The worktable is fixed to the frame, and the conveying device is installed on the worktable. The clamping device includes a fixed clamping plate, a movable clamping plate, sleeves, a sliding rod, and a clamping cylinder. The fixed clamping plate is fixedly connected to one side of the conveying device and has six fixed arc-shaped grooves. The axes of the six fixed arc-shaped grooves coincide with the axes of the six cap removers. Two sleeves and one clamping cylinder are fixedly connected to the other side of the conveying device. The sliding rod is slidably inserted into the sleeves. The other end of the sliding rod and the output end of the clamping cylinder are both connected to the movable clamping plate, which has six movable arc-shaped grooves that mate with the fixed arc-shaped grooves.

[0008] Using the above technical solution, when the product can is conveyed to the front of the fixed arc-shaped groove by the conveyor belt of the conveying device, the clamping cylinder extends and pushes the movable clamping plate, thereby clamping the product can between the movable arc-shaped groove and the fixed arc-shaped groove.

[0009] Furthermore, the automatic feeding device includes a feeding pusher plate, a can lid clamping block, a feeding baffle, a guide tube, a guide rod, a feeding cylinder, a baffle cylinder, a connecting plate, and a support plate; the connecting plate is fixedly connected to the columns on both sides of the workbench, the guide rod is connected to the connecting plate, the guide tube is slidably sleeved on the guide rod, and the two ends of the feeding pusher plate are respectively connected to the bottom of the two guide tubes; the bottom of the support plate is fixed to the workbench, and the feeding cylinder is hinged to the other end of the support plate; the feeding cylinder feeds... The outlet end is hinged to the feeding push plate and is used to push the feeding push plate to move back and forth; seven can lid clamping blocks are connected at equal intervals on the upper part of the feeding push plate, and a feeding notch is formed between adjacent can lid clamping blocks; the baffle cylinder is fixedly connected to the two columns in front of the workbench, and the two ends of the feeding baffle are respectively connected to the output end of the baffle cylinder. The baffle cylinder is used to push the feeding baffle to move up and down. Six feeding protrusions that cooperate with the feeding notch are provided at equal intervals on the lower part of the feeding baffle.

[0010] Using the above technical solution, after the cap remover's cutter cuts off the can cap, the cap remover's suction head will adsorb the can cap. At this time, the feeding cylinder extends, driving the feeding push plate forward to push the adsorbed can cap down and lock it in the feeding notch, moving it above the receiving bin. Then, the baffle cylinder extends, pushing the feeding baffle down to behind the feeding notch. At this time, the feeding cylinder retracts, driving the feeding push plate backward, and the feeding protrusion pushes the can cap locked in the feeding notch into the receiving bin.

[0011] Furthermore, inclined surfaces for removing the lid are provided on both sides in front of the lid clamping block.

[0012] Furthermore, the receiving bin is fixed on the side of the conveying device, and the receiving bin is located directly below the discharge baffle.

[0013] Furthermore, the cutting edge of the cap remover cutter is wavy, with a cutting angle of 30°.

[0014] The automatic can opener provided by this utility model is simpler, more convenient and easier to operate. The machine can automatically open cans and push the can lids adsorbed by the lid picker to the receiving bin through the automatic feeding device, reducing the risk of manual lid picking, realizing automatic feeding and discharging, increasing production efficiency and saving labor costs.
