[0036] Example 1:
[0037] like Figure 1-4 As shown, the internal structure of the pet dental treat packaging system includes:
[0038] Main frame: Constructed with a 304 stainless steel welded frame to support all components;
[0039] Feeding hopper: Located on top of the main frame, with a volume of 50L and an inclined inner wall angle of 60° to prevent snacks from getting stuck;
[0040] Material feeding control component: installed directly below the feeding funnel, it is an aluminum alloy disc with a diameter of 400mm, and its surface is evenly distributed with 12 circular grooves with a depth of 20mm, the grooves matching the volume of a single snack.
[0041] Drive motor: It is fixed to the side wall of the main frame by bolts, and the output shaft is connected to the transmission group to drive the material conveying control component to rotate at a fixed axis of 5r / min;
[0042] Snack conveying compartment: welded below the conveying control components, with a compartment height of 300mm;
[0043] Conveying component: Located directly below the snack conveying compartment, it consists of an angle-adjustable rotating shaft and a conveyor belt.
[0044] Furthermore, the pet dental treat packaging system is equipped with a quantitative conveying system for quantitative control of the amount of treats conveyed. The fixed tray is a conical funnel structure, welded to the top of the treat conveying chamber, and has a 304 stainless steel filter membrane embedded in it to filter out debris with a diameter of <2mm. The conveying pipe is vertically connected to the outlet of the fixed tray, with a pipe diameter of Φ60mm and a rectangular operation window on the pipe wall.
[0045] Meanwhile, the system is equipped with a quantity control and locking component: the drive cylinder is fixed on the outside of the conveying pipe with a stroke of 50mm; the extrusion plate is connected to the cylinder push rod and the surface is covered with a 0.5mm thick food-grade silicone layer; the inner limit guard plate is welded to the inner wall of the conveying pipe with a gap of 1mm from the extrusion plate; the transverse limit push plate is hinged to the middle of the conveying pipe and can adjust the tilt angle of the conveying pipe.
[0046] The system's workflow is as follows: after initial filtration by a fixed tray, the snacks enter the conveying pipe; then, the staff starts the drive cylinder, which pushes the extrusion plate every 10 seconds to intercept snacks exceeding the single serving size; the horizontal limit push plate set below adjusts the tilt angle according to the shape of the snacks.
[0047] Furthermore, the system includes an internal forming and packaging system, which comprises conveying components: the angle adjustment shaft uses a worm gear mechanism to set the conveyor belt inclination angle; the conveyor belt is 500mm wide and has a linear speed of 2m / min; the packaging mold plate has multiple sets of aluminum module arrays fixed to the surface of the conveyor belt; each module has multiple bone-shaped grooves, the groove contours of which match the three-dimensional shape of the snack; and the feeding plate is magnetically attached to the feeding end of the conveyor belt, with the central feeding hole aligned with the position of the packaging mold plate.
[0048] The teeth-cleaning snacks are poured into the feeding funnel, and the initial quantitative measurement is completed by the groove of the rotating feeding control component. Afterwards, as the snacks fall along the conveying pipe, the cylinder drives the extrusion plate to squeeze the snacks, ensuring that only one complete snack passes through at a time. The snacks fall vertically into the bone-shaped groove of the packaging mold plate through the inclined conveying pipe. The conveyor belt runs at a 15° angle, and the mold plate carrying the snacks enters the heat sealing station to complete the packaging.
[0049] For any parts not mentioned in this application, existing technologies may be used or referenced.
[0050] The various embodiments in this specification are described in a progressive manner. The same or similar parts between the various embodiments can be referred to each other. Each embodiment focuses on describing the differences from other embodiments.
[0051] The above description is merely an embodiment of this application and is not intended to limit the scope of 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 scope of the claims of this application.
