Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of feeding equipment for dough mixers, and specifically to a feeding device for dough mixers. Background Technology
[0002] A dough mixer is a type of pasta machinery, primarily used to evenly mix flour and water. There are vacuum and non-vacuum dough mixers, categorized as horizontal, vertical, single-shaft, double-shaft, and half-shaft types. Patent CN202121251216.7 discloses a feeding device for a dough mixer. By installing a gate inside the feeding hopper, and ensuring the gate's opening and closing always occurs within the hopper, leakage of powdered flour entering the dough mixer is reduced. However, during operation, some flour tends to adhere and accumulate on the inner walls of the weighing bin and hopper, affecting feeding. Therefore, we propose a feeding device for dough mixers. Utility Model Content
[0003] To address the problems in the existing technology, this utility model provides a feeding device for a dough mixer.
[0004] The technical solution adopted by this utility model to solve its technical problem is a feeding device for a dough mixer, including a dough mixer body. The outer wall surface of the dough mixer body is equipped with a ring frame for support, and the top surface of the ring frame is equipped with a compression spring for auxiliary support. There are multiple sets of compression springs, and a ring seat located at the top of the ring frame is assembled between the multiple sets of compression springs. The top surface of the ring seat is equipped with a weighing device body for measurement. The detection end of the weighing device body is equipped with a ring plate for support, and a hopper body that is inserted and connected to the ring frame is assembled on the inner side of the ring plate by bolts. The outer wall surface of the hopper body is equipped with ear plates for auxiliary support, and there are multiple sets of ear plates. The outer wall surface of the ear plates is equipped with a vibration motor, and there are multiple sets of vibration motors. The outer wall surface of the hopper is fitted with a support plate, and the outer wall surface of the support plate is fitted with an electric push rod for adjustment. A rotating shaft for controlling the opening and closing of the gate valve is rotatably mounted on the outer wall surface of the hopper, and an adjustable inclined plate is bolted to the outer circumference of the rotating shaft. The power output end of the electric push rod is rotatably mounted with a pin that is slidably connected to the inclined plate.
[0005] By adopting the above technical solution, during the use of the dough mixer feeding equipment, the weight applied to the ring plate by the weighing body on the ring seat surface can be measured, and the amount of flour added into the hopper can be measured. Then, the electric push rod on the outside of the plate seat can be operated and the pin shaft can be driven to slide along the groove inside the inclined plate. Thus, the inclined plate can drive the gate valve inside the hopper to operate through the rotating shaft under the shearing force and release the blocked hopper body. Then, the flour inside the hopper can enter the dough mixer body for easy dough mixing. When the flour inside the hopper enters the main body of the dough mixer, the vibration motor on the outer ear plate of the hopper will operate and drive the hopper to vibrate. The multiple sets of compression springs on the surface of the ring seat can provide elastic support for the ring seat, so that the hopper can vibrate stably and the flour inside can fall more smoothly into the main body of the dough mixer, which helps to reduce the amount of flour residue inside the hopper.
[0006] Specifically, the outer wall surface of the inclined plate is integrally constructed with a U-shaped plate for transmission, and the outer wall surface of the hopper is bolted with an adjustable slide block. An adjustable slider is slidably installed on the inner side of the slide block, and a square strip seat that matches the U-shaped plate is rotatably installed on the outer wall surface of the slider. An annular seat for support is assembled on the inner side of the slide block, and a T-shaped block that matches the slider is slidably installed on the inner side of the annular seat. A U-shaped conductive sheet is assembled at one end of the T-shaped block located inside the annular seat, and a conductive post that matches the U-shaped conductive sheet is assembled on the inner side of the annular seat, and there are two sets of conductive posts.
[0007] By adopting the above technical solution, when the electric push rod operates by sliding the pin and the inclined plate to drive the rotating shaft to rotate, the inclined plate will swing synchronously. The swinging of the inclined plate will cause the U-shaped plate to swing and displace. The square strip seat that slides and engages with the U-shaped plate can slide along the U-shaped plate, and with the swinging displacement of the U-shaped plate, it can easily drive the slider to slide and displace within the slide block. Furthermore, the square strip seat on the outer periphery of the slider can rotate, allowing the square strip seat to stably engage with the U-shaped plate and provide thrust to the slider. Subsequently, the slider can easily engage with the T-shaped block at the other end of the slide block and compress the T-shaped block, causing it to retract into the ring seat. Then, the U-shaped conductive sheet at the bottom of the T-shaped block engages with the two sets of conductive posts inside the ring seat to form a circuit, enabling the vibrating motor to operate and facilitating the supply of power to the hopper body. The controlled vibration force allows the flour to fall more smoothly into the main body of the dough mixer. Simultaneously, a detection element installed inside the hopper detects the completion of flour discharge. This triggers an electric push rod that, via a pin and inclined plate, drives the rotating shaft to rotate, activating the gate valve inside the hopper and sealing it. During this process, the U-shaped plate on the outside of the inclined plate returns to its original position. This return, in turn, drives the slider inside the slide block to return to its original position via the square strip seat, separating the slider from the T-block. Subsequently, the T-block returns to its original position under the action of the thrust spring, separating the U-shaped conductive sheet from the conductive column, thus stopping the vibration motor. This repetitive cycle facilitates automatic control of the vibration motor's operation, making the dough mixer's feeding equipment more convenient to use.
[0008] Specifically, a thrust spring for pushing the T-block to move is assembled between the ring seat and the T-block.
[0009] By adopting the above technical solution, the thrust spring inside the ring seat can provide elastic support for the T-block, so that after the T-block retracts into the ring seat under the squeezing force, it can provide thrust to the T-block when the pressure is released, so that one end of the T-block can extend out of the ring seat and return to its original position.
[0010] Specifically, a screw seat for limiting is screwed onto the outer peripheral surface of the square bar seat.
[0011] By adopting the above technical solution, the screw seat is screwed onto the outer periphery of the square bar seat, and is easy to disassemble and assemble. It provides a certain limiting performance for the square bar seat, so that the square bar seat can slide stably with the swing of the U-shaped plate and provide thrust to the slider.
[0012] Specifically, the outer wall surface of the T-shaped block is provided with an arc-shaped groove that matches the inner circumference of the ring seat.
[0013] By adopting the above technical solution, the arc groove on the outer periphery of the T-block and the protrusion on the inner periphery of the ring seat fit together, which facilitates the improvement of the stability of the T-block when sliding displacement inside the slide seat, thereby reducing the occurrence of self-rotation of the T-block.
[0014] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects: 1. The technical solution of this application, through the design of a ring frame, a weighing device body, a hopper body, a plate base, a rotating shaft, an electric push rod, a pin shaft, and an inclined plate, allows the weighing device body on the surface of the ring base to measure the weight applied to the ring plate by the hopper body during the use of the dough mixer feeding equipment. This facilitates the measurement of the amount of flour added into the hopper body. Subsequently, the electric push rod on the outside of the plate base can operate and drive the pin shaft to slide along the groove inside the inclined plate. This allows the inclined plate to operate the gate valve inside the hopper body through the rotating shaft under the shearing force, releasing the blocked hopper body. Then, the flour inside the hopper body can enter the dough mixer body for easy dough mixing.
[0015] 2. The technical solution of this application, through the design of a ring seat, compression springs, ring plates, ear plates and a vibrating motor, enables the vibrating motor on the ear plates on the outer periphery of the hopper to operate and drive the hopper to vibrate when the flour inside the hopper enters the main body of the dough mixer. In addition, the multiple sets of compression springs on the surface of the ring seat can provide elastic support for the ring seat, so that the hopper can vibrate stably and the flour inside can fall more smoothly into the main body of the dough mixer, which helps to reduce the situation of flour residue inside the hopper.
[0016] 3. The technical solution of this application, through the design of a U-shaped plate, a slide block, a slider, a square strip seat, a ring seat, a T-block, a U-shaped conductive sheet, and conductive columns, allows the electric push rod to operate. When the shaft rotates due to the sliding motion of the inclined plate via the pin, the inclined plate swings synchronously. This swinging motion causes the U-shaped plate to swing and displace. The square strip seat, which slides and engages with the U-shaped plate, can slide along the U-shaped plate and, with the swinging displacement of the U-shaped plate, facilitates the sliding displacement of the slider within the slide block. Furthermore, the square strip seat on the outer periphery of the slider can rotate, ensuring stable engagement with the U-shaped plate and providing thrust to the slider. Subsequently, the slider easily engages with the T-block at the other end of the slide block, compressing the T-block and causing it to retract into the ring seat. Then, the U-shaped conductive sheet at the bottom of the T-block engages with the two sets of conductive columns inside the ring seat, forming a circuit that allows the vibration motor to... It can operate when powered on and provides a certain vibration force to the hopper, allowing flour to fall more smoothly into the main body of the dough mixer. At the same time, the detection element installed inside the hopper detects that the flour has been discharged. After the flour is discharged, the electric push rod drives the rotating shaft through the pin and inclined plate to rotate, which activates the gate valve inside the hopper and seals the hopper. During this process, the U-shaped plate on the outside of the inclined plate will also return to its original position. At the same time, it will drive the slider inside the slide block to return to its original position through the square strip seat, causing the slider to separate from the T-shaped block. Then, the T-shaped block will return to its original position under the action of the thrust spring, causing the U-shaped conductive sheet to separate from the conductive column, thereby stopping the vibration motor. This repetition facilitates automatic control of the operation of the vibration motor, making the dough mixer feeding equipment more convenient to use. Attached Figure Description

[0019] To make the technical means, creative features, objectives and effects of this utility model easier to understand, the present utility model will be further described below in conjunction with specific embodiments.
[0020] Please see Figure 1-3 This utility model provides a technical solution: a feeding device for a dough mixer, including a dough mixer body 1. A support frame 2 is mounted on the outer wall surface of the dough mixer body 1, and a compression spring 3 for auxiliary support is mounted on the top surface of the support frame 2. Multiple sets of compression springs 3 are connected by a ring seat 4 located at the top of the support frame 2. A weighing device body 5 for measurement is mounted on the top surface of the ring seat 4. A supporting ring plate 6 is mounted on the detection end of the weighing device body 5, and a hopper body that is inserted and connected to the support frame 2 is bolted to the inner side of the ring plate 6. 7. The outer wall surface of the hopper body 7 is equipped with ear plates 8 for auxiliary support, and there are multiple sets of ear plates 8. The outer wall surface of the ear plates 8 is equipped with a vibration motor 9, and there are multiple sets of vibration motor 9. The outer wall surface of the hopper body 7 is equipped with a plate base 10 for support, and the outer wall surface of the plate base 10 is equipped with an electric push rod 11 for adjustment. The outer wall surface of the hopper body 7 is rotatably mounted with a rotating shaft 12 for controlling the opening and closing of the gate valve, and the outer circumference of the rotating shaft 12 is equipped with an inclined plate 13 for adjustment by bolts. The power output end of the electric push rod 11 is rotatably mounted with a pin 14 that is slidably connected to the inclined plate 13.
[0021] During use, when feeding the dough mixer, the weighing body 5 on the surface of the ring seat 4 can measure the weight applied to the ring plate 6 by the hopper body 7, and conveniently measure the amount of flour added into the hopper body 7. Then, the electric push rod 11 on the outside of the plate seat 10 can be operated and drive the pin shaft 14 to slide along the groove inside the inclined plate 13. Thus, the inclined plate 13 can drive the gate valve inside the hopper body 7 to operate through the rotating shaft 12 under the shearing force and release the blocked hopper body 7. Then, the flour inside the hopper body 7 can enter the dough mixer body 1 for easy dough mixing. When the flour inside the hopper 7 enters the body 1 of the dough mixer, the vibration motor 9 on the outer ear plate 8 of the hopper 7 will operate and drive the hopper 7 to vibrate. The multiple sets of compression springs 3 on the surface of the ring seat 4 can provide elastic support for the ring seat 4, so that the hopper 7 can vibrate stably and the flour inside can fall more smoothly into the body 1 of the dough mixer, which helps to reduce the situation of flour residue inside the hopper 7.
[0022] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, the outer wall surface of the inclined plate 13 is integrally constructed with a U-shaped plate 15 for transmission, and the outer wall surface of the hopper body 7 is bolted with an adjustable slide block 16. The inner side of the slide block 16 is slidably installed with an adjustable slider 17, and the outer wall surface of the slider 17 is rotatably installed with a square strip seat 18 that matches the U-shaped plate 15. The inner side of the slide block 16 is equipped with a ring seat 19 for support, and the inner side of the ring seat 19 is slidably installed with a T-shaped block 20 that matches the slider 17. One end of the T-shaped block 20 located inside the ring seat 19 is equipped with a U-shaped conductive sheet 21, and the inner side of the ring seat 19 is equipped with a conductive post 22 that matches the U-shaped conductive sheet 21, and there are two sets of conductive posts 22.
[0023] In use, when the electric push rod 11 operates by sliding the pivot 14 and the inclined plate 13 to drive the rotating shaft 12 to rotate, the inclined plate 13 will swing synchronously. The swinging of the inclined plate 13 will cause the U-shaped plate 15 to swing and displace. The square strip seat 18, which slides and engages with the U-shaped plate 15, can slide along the U-shaped plate 15. With the swinging displacement of the U-shaped plate 15, it facilitates the sliding displacement of the slider 17 within the slide block 16. The square strip seat 18 on the outer periphery of the slider 17 can rotate, allowing the square strip seat 18 to stably engage with the U-shaped plate 15 and provide thrust to the slider 17. Subsequently, the slider 17 easily engages with the T-shaped block 20 at the other end of the slide block 16, squeezing the T-shaped block 20 and causing it to retract into the ring seat 19. Then, the U-shaped conductive sheet 21 at the bottom of the T-shaped block 20 engages with the two sets of conductive posts 22 inside the ring seat 19 to form a circuit, enabling the vibration motor 9 to operate and facilitating... The hopper body 7 provides a certain vibration force, allowing the flour to fall more smoothly into the dough mixer body 1. At the same time, the detection element installed inside the hopper body 7 detects that the flour has been discharged. This allows the electric push rod 11 to drive the rotating shaft 12 to rotate through the pin shaft 14 and the inclined plate 13, causing the gate valve inside the hopper body 7 to operate and block the hopper body 7. During this process, the U-shaped plate 15 on the outside of the inclined plate 13 will also return to its original position. At the same time, it can drive the slider 17 inside the slide block 16 to return to its original position through the square strip seat 18, causing the slider 17 to separate from the T-shaped block 20. Subsequently, the T-shaped block 20 can return to its original position under the action of the thrust spring 23, causing the U-shaped conductive sheet 21 to separate from the conductive column 22, thereby stopping the vibration motor 9. This repetition facilitates automatic control of the operation of the vibration motor 9, making the dough mixer feeding equipment more convenient to use.
[0024] like Figure 3 As shown, a thrust spring 23 for pushing the T-block 20 to move is assembled between the ring seat 19 and the T-block 20.
[0025] In use, the thrust spring 23 inside the ring seat 19 provides elastic support for the T-block 20, so that after the T-block 20 retracts into the ring seat 19 under the squeezing force, it can provide thrust to the T-block 20 when the pressure is released, so that one end of the T-block 20 can extend out of the ring seat 19 and return to its original position.
[0026] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a screw seat 24 for limiting is screwed onto the outer peripheral surface of the square bar seat 18.
[0027] In use, the screw seat 24 is screwed onto the outer periphery of the square bar seat 18 and is easy to disassemble and assemble. It provides a certain limiting performance for the square bar seat 18, so that the square bar seat 18 can slide stably with the swing of the U-shaped plate 15 and provide thrust to the slider 17.
[0028] like Figure 3 As shown, the outer wall surface of the T-block 20 is provided with an arc-shaped groove 25 that matches the inner circumference of the ring seat 19.
[0029] When in use, the arc groove 25 on the outer periphery of the T-block 20 matches the protrusion on the inner periphery of the ring seat 19, which helps to improve the stability of the T-block 20 when it slides inside the slide seat 16, thereby reducing the possibility of the T-block 20 rotating.
[0030] The working principle and usage process of this utility model are as follows: In use, first, install the corresponding structural components in suitable positions. During the feeding process of the dough mixer, the weighing body 5 on the surface of the ring seat 4 can measure the weight applied to the ring plate 6 by the hopper body 7, and conveniently measure the amount of flour added into the hopper body 7. Then, the electric push rod 11 on the outside of the plate seat 10 can operate, driving the pin shaft 14 to slide along the groove inside the inclined plate 13. This allows the inclined plate 13, under the shearing force, to drive the gate valve inside the hopper body 7 through the rotating shaft 12, releasing the blocked hopper body 7. Then, the flour inside the hopper body 7 can enter the dough mixer body 1, facilitating the feeding process. During the dough kneading process, when flour from the hopper 7 enters the main body 1 of the dough mixer, the vibrating motor 9 on the outer ear plate 8 of the hopper 7 operates, causing the hopper 7 to vibrate. Multiple compression springs 3 on the surface of the ring seat 4 provide elastic support, ensuring stable vibration of the hopper 7 and allowing the flour to fall more smoothly into the main body 1 of the dough mixer, reducing flour residue inside the hopper 7. Simultaneously, during this process, the electric push rod 11 operates, sliding through the pin 14 and the inclined plate 13 to rotate the shaft 12. The inclined plate 13 swings synchronously, causing the U-shaped plate 15 to swing and shift. The square strip seat 18, sliding and engaging with the U-shaped plate 15, slides along the U-shaped plate 15. The movement of the U-shaped plate 15 facilitates the sliding displacement of the slider 17 within the slide block 16. The square base 18 on the outer periphery of the slider 17 can rotate, allowing it to stably engage with the U-shaped plate 15 and provide thrust to the slider 17. Subsequently, the slider 17 engages with the T-shaped block 20 at the other end of the slide block 16, squeezing the T-shaped block 20 and causing it to retract into the ring seat 19. Then, the U-shaped conductive sheet 21 at the bottom of the T-shaped block 20 engages with the two sets of conductive posts 22 inside the ring seat 19, forming a circuit that powers the vibrating motor 9 and provides vibration to the hopper body 7, allowing flour to fall more smoothly into the dough mixer body 1. Simultaneously, an additional device is installed inside the hopper body 7... After the detection element detects the flour discharge, the electric push rod 11 drives the rotating shaft 12 to rotate through the pin 14 and the inclined plate 13, which in turn causes the gate valve inside the hopper body 7 to operate and block the hopper body 7. During this process, the U-shaped plate 15 on the outside of the inclined plate 13 will also return to its original position. At the same time, the sliding block 17 inside the slide block 16 will return to its original position through the square strip seat 18, and the sliding block 17 will separate from the T-shaped block 20. Then, the T-shaped block 20 will return to its original position under the action of the thrust spring 23, and the U-shaped conductive sheet 21 will separate from the conductive column 22, thereby stopping the vibration motor 9. This repetition facilitates the automatic control of the operation of the vibration motor 9, making the dough mixer feeding equipment more convenient to use.
