Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of hot pot base packaging technology, specifically a convenient robotic picking and packaging machine. Background Technology

[0002] Hot pot base is one of the most important ingredients in hot pot. During processing, the finished hot pot base needs to be bottled and packaged to aid in preservation and transportation. Packaging hot pot base effectively protects against light, moisture, and oxygen, maintaining product quality and flavor, and is relatively inexpensive. It is commonly used for hot pot base packaging where high barrier properties are required.

[0003] Packaging equipment is needed in the production of hot pot base. Chinese utility model patent CN216424930U discloses a rapid packaging device for hot pot base after production. The device includes a base plate with multiple sets of limiting shafts. Each set of limiting shafts has a limiting post, and a support plate is mounted on the limiting post. An electric telescopic rod is mounted on the base plate, and the support plate is mounted on the electric telescopic rod. A first mounting seat is mounted at the bottom of the support plate, and a first motor is mounted on the first mounting seat. A rotating shaft is mounted on the first motor, and a turntable is mounted on the rotating shaft. The turntable has a first discharge port and a stirring roller. A feeding cylinder is mounted on the rotating shaft, and a support rod is mounted on the support plate. The feeding cylinder is mounted on the support rod, and a second discharge port is mounted at the bottom of the feeding cylinder. A discharge pipe is mounted at the bottom of the feeding cylinder, and a packaging mechanism is mounted on the support plate. This utility model allows for manual placement of the packaging box into the packaging slot, followed by the use of a limiting plate to open the box. A second motor is then activated to rotate the threaded rod. Since the slider has an internal thread, the threaded rod controls the slider's left and right movement, thereby causing the packaging slot to move left and right, which in turn drives the packaging box to be filled with hot pot base. This simplifies the process of filling the hot pot base, improves work efficiency, reduces manual labor costs, and enhances the quality of the hot pot base.

[0004] However, this utility model can only process one packaging box at a time during use, and cannot achieve continuous packaging. At the same time, the degree of manual intervention is relatively large, which directly affects the packaging efficiency of hot pot base and cannot meet production needs. Therefore, a convenient robotic picking and packaging machine is proposed to solve the problems mentioned above. Utility Model Content

[0005] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides a convenient robotic picking and packaging machine that offers the advantage of continuous packaging. It solves the problem that existing packaging machines can only process one box at a time, making continuous packaging impossible, and also suffer from significant human intervention, which directly affects the packaging efficiency of hot pot base.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: a convenient robot picking and packaging machine, comprising a workbench and a mounting box fixedly connected to the top of the workbench, wherein the top of the mounting box is provided with a continuous filling mechanism extending to its front.

[0007] The continuous filling mechanism includes a filling cylinder fixedly connected to the top of the mounting box. A drive motor is fixedly connected to the top of the mounting box. A drive rod is fixedly connected to the output shaft of the drive motor. One end of the drive rod is rotatably connected to a push rod extending into the filling cylinder. A push piston is fixedly connected to the end of the push rod away from the filling cylinder. A conveying pipe is fixedly connected to the side of the filling cylinder away from the drive motor. A filling head is fixedly connected to the end of the conveying pipe away from the filling cylinder.

[0008] Furthermore, the outer wall of the pusher piston abuts against the inner wall of the filling cylinder, and the connection between the push rod and the filling cylinder is a sliding connection.

[0009] Furthermore, a support plate is fixedly connected to the front of the mounting box, and the filling head is fixedly connected to the bottom of the support plate and extends to its top.

[0010] Furthermore, a storage tank is fixedly connected inside the mounting box, and a conveying pump is fixedly connected inside the mounting box. The input end of the conveying pump is fixedly connected to the storage tank, and a conveying pipe is fixedly connected between the output end of the conveying pump and the filling cylinder. Control valves are fixedly connected to the outside of both the conveying pipe and the material conveying pipe.

[0011] Furthermore, the control valve on the conveying pipeline is a discharge valve, and the control valve on the conveying pipeline is a feed valve.

[0012] Furthermore, a heating jacket is fixedly connected to the outside of the storage tank, and a feed hopper communicating with the inside of the storage tank is fixedly connected to the top of the storage tank.

[0013] Furthermore, a conveyor belt device is provided on the front of the inside of the workbench, and five packaging boxes are provided on the upper surface of the conveyor belt device, with the filling head located directly above the middle packaging box.

[0014] Furthermore, a placement platform is fixedly connected to one side of the workbench, and a weighing plate extending to its upper surface is fixedly connected inside the placement platform.

[0015] Compared with the prior art, this utility model provides a convenient robotic pack picking machine, which has the following advantages:

[0016] 1. This portable robotic picking and packaging machine uses a drive motor to rotate a drive rod, which in turn drives a push rod to move back and forth. This, in turn, moves a push piston back and forth. A conveying pump is installed to transport the hot pot base from the storage tank to the conveying pipe. When the push piston moves to the left, the volume inside the filling cylinder increases, creating negative pressure, which then transports the hot pot base into the filling cylinder. Afterward, the push piston moves to the right, pushing the hot pot base into the filling head, thus completing continuous filling.

[0017] 2. This portable robotic picking and packaging machine, by setting up a conveyor belt device and packaging boxes, allows workers to easily place multiple packaging boxes on the conveyor belt device, thereby achieving the effect of conveying packaging boxes. Combined with a continuous filling mechanism, it can improve the overall automation level. At the same time, by setting up a weighing plate, it is convenient to weigh and detect the filled packaging boxes, which solves the problem that existing packaging machines can only process one packaging box at a time, cannot achieve the effect of continuous packaging, and have a large degree of manual intervention, which directly affects the packaging efficiency of hot pot base.

[0022] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0023] Please see Figures 1 to 2This embodiment of a portable robotic picking and packaging machine includes a workbench 1 and a mounting box 2 fixedly connected to the top of the workbench 1. The top of the mounting box 2 is provided with a continuous filling mechanism extending to its front. The continuous filling mechanism includes a filling cylinder 3 fixedly connected to the top of the mounting box 2. A drive motor 4 is fixedly connected to the top of the mounting box 2. A drive rod 5 is fixedly connected to the output shaft of the drive motor 4. One end of the drive rod 5 is rotatably connected to a push rod 6 extending into the filling cylinder 3. A push piston 7 is fixedly connected to the end of the push rod 6 away from the filling cylinder 3. A conveying pipe 8 is fixedly connected to the side of the filling cylinder 3 away from the drive motor 4. A filling head 10 is fixedly connected to the end of the conveying pipe 8 away from the filling cylinder 3.

[0024] Specifically, the outer wall of the pusher piston 7 abuts against the inner wall of the filling cylinder 3, the push rod 6 is connected to the filling cylinder 3 by a sliding connection, the front of the mounting box 2 is fixedly connected to the support plate 9, and the filling head 10 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the support plate 9 and extends to its top.

[0025] It should be noted that this continuous filling mechanism is suitable for hot pot base with high viscosity and poor flowability. An infrared sensor is fixedly connected to the bottom of the support plate 9, which can monitor the position of the packaging box 17 on the conveyor belt device, thereby facilitating the control of the filling effect.

[0026] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 3 In this embodiment, a storage tank 11 is fixedly connected inside the mounting box 2, and a conveying pump 12 is fixedly connected inside the mounting box 2. The input end of the conveying pump 12 is fixedly connected to the storage tank 11, and a conveying pipe 13 is fixedly connected between the output end of the conveying pump 12 and the filling cylinder 3.

[0027] Specifically, the control valve 14 on the conveying pipe 8 is a discharge valve, the control valve 14 on the conveying pipe 13 is a feed valve, the storage tank 11 is externally fixedly connected to a heating jacket 15, the top of the storage tank 11 is fixedly connected to a feed hopper 16 that communicates with its interior, and the conveying pump 12 is a rotor pump, which is suitable for base materials with extremely high viscosity (such as solid butter that needs to be heated and melted into a paste) and sauces containing large particles (particle size ≤20mm).

[0028] It should be noted that both control valves 14 are electric one-way valves. A PLC controller is fixedly connected to the front of the workbench 1. The PLC controller is electrically connected to both the drive motor 4 and the two control valves 14. Through the program embedded in the PLC controller, when the drive motor 4 drives the pusher piston 7 to move to the left, the feed valve opens and the discharge valve closes; when the drive motor 4 drives the pusher piston 7 to move to the right, the feed valve closes and the discharge valve opens, thereby achieving the filling effect.
