The second motor 22 drives the circular plate 6 to rotate at a constant speed through the rotating rod 5. The circular plate 6 drives the metering cup 10, which has been filled, to rotate through the fixed rod 7 and the U-shaped frame 8. Start the second electric push rod 28 on one side of the U-shaped frame 8. The second electric push rod 28 pushes the toothed plate 30 to move horizontally. Since the toothed plate 30 meshes with the gear 29, the toothed plate 30 drives the gear 29 to rotate around the rotating shaft 27. The gear 29 then drives the support ring 9 and the metering cup 10 to rotate synchronously.
[0018] A limiting component is provided on one side of the support ring 9. The limiting component includes an L-frame 25, which is fixedly disposed on one side of the support ring 9. A limiting screw 26 is threadedly connected to one side of the L-frame 25. Based on the target filling weight of loose tea, select a metering cup 10 of the corresponding capacity, place it inside the support ring 9, and then rotate the limiting screw 26 on the L frame 25 to move the limiting screw 26 down to the pre-reserved gap with the top of the metering cup 10.
[0019] The fixed disc 3 is fixedly provided with a sloping panel 14 at the top, and a first electric push rod 23 is fixedly provided at the bottom of the fixed disc 3. The output end of the first electric push rod 23 is fixedly connected to a weighing scale 24. A retaining ring 15 is fixedly provided at the top of the sloping panel 14, and the weighing scale 24 is located inside the retaining ring 15. Start the first electric push rod 23 at the bottom of the fixed disc 3. The first electric push rod 23 pushes the weighing scale 24 upward until the weighing surface of the weighing scale 24 is in close contact with the bottom of the metering cup 10, and lifts the metering cup 10 to a certain height.
[0020] The bottom of the fixed disc 3 is fixedly provided with a discharge funnel 4; The tea leaves in the measuring cup 10 are poured into the discharge funnel 4 under the action of gravity, and then guided by the discharge funnel 4 into the packaging bag below, completing one filling operation.
[0021] Two first support plates 17 are fixedly provided on the top of the base plate 1, and a conveyor belt 16 is fixedly installed on the top of the two first support plates 17. Start the conveyor belt 16, which will uniformly transport the temporarily stored loose tea leaves into the metering cup 10.
[0022] The bottom of the fixed disc 3 is fixedly provided with a second discharge plate 19, and the bottom of the second discharge plate 19 is fixedly provided with a second support plate 18. The second support plate 18 is fixedly connected to the top of the bottom plate 1. The overflowing tea leaves slide down the inclined panel 14 to the second discharge plate 19, and are then conveyed by the second discharge plate 19 to the recycling container, achieving preliminary material recycling.
[0023] Two third support plates 20 are fixedly provided on the top of the base plate 1, and a first discharge plate 13 is fixedly provided on the top of the two third support plates 20. A first motor 21 is fixedly provided at the bottom of the base plate 1. A connecting rod 11 is fixedly connected to the output end of the first motor 21. The connecting rod 11 passes through the base plate 1 and the first discharge plate 13 and is connected to the base plate 1 and the first discharge plate 13 through a bearing. A lever 12 is fixedly connected to one end of the connecting rod 11. When the measuring cup 10 containing tea leaves rotates to the side of the lever 12, the second motor 22 stops rotating and starts the first motor 21 at the bottom of the base plate 1. The first motor 21 drives the connecting rod 11 and the lever 12 to rotate. The edge of the lever 12 is flush with the mouth of the measuring cup 10. During the rotation, the lever 12 scrapes off the excess tea leaves in the measuring cup 10 that are higher than the mouth of the cup. The scraped tea leaves fall into the first discharge plate 13 below and are conveyed to the recycling container by the first discharge plate 13.
[0024] The usage process of this utility model is as follows: Selection and installation of measuring cup: According to the target filling weight of loose tea, select the corresponding capacity measuring cup 10, put it into the support ring 9, and then rotate the limiting screw 26 on the L frame 25 to move the limiting screw 26 down to the reserved gap with the top of the measuring cup 10. Lifting the weighing scale: Start the first electric push rod 23 at the bottom of the fixed disc 3. The first electric push rod 23 pushes the weighing scale 24 upward until the weighing surface of the weighing scale 24 is in close contact with the bottom of the metering cup 10, and lifts the metering cup 10 to a certain height. Automatic tea feeding: Start the conveyor belt 16, which will uniformly transport the temporarily stored bulk tea into the metering cup 10. The tea gradually fills the metering cup 10 and overflows. The overflowing tea falls on the surface of the inclined plate 14. Since the inclined plate 14 is designed to be inclined, the overflowing tea slides down the inclined plate 14 to the second discharge plate 19, and is then transported by the second discharge plate 19 to the recycling container to achieve preliminary material recycling. Precise weighing and measurement: When the tea leaves in the metering cup 10 are filled to near the target weight, the conveyor belt 16 slows down and conveys. When the weight displayed on the weighing scale 24 reaches the target value, the conveyor belt 16 stops feeding. If a small amount of tea leaves still overflows, wait for them to completely slide down to the second discharge plate 19 before starting the first electric push rod 23 to move the weighing scale 24 down and reset, thus completing the filling and weighing of the metering cup 10. Quantitative cup rotation and displacement: Start the second motor 22. The second motor 22 drives the circular plate 6 to rotate at a constant speed through the rotating rod 5. The circular plate 6 drives the filled quantitative cup 10 to move above the first discharge plate 13 through the fixed rod 7 and U-shaped frame 8. At the same time, the next empty quantitative cup 10 rotates synchronously to the inclined plate 14 area. Repeat the above filling and weighing steps to realize continuous operation. Excess tea leaves scraping: When the measuring cup 10 containing tea leaves rotates to the side of the paddle 12, the second motor 22 stops rotating and starts the first motor 21 at the bottom of the base plate 1. The first motor 21 drives the connecting rod 11 and the paddle 12 to rotate. The edge of the paddle 12 is flush with the mouth of the measuring cup 10. During the rotation, the paddle 12 scrapes off the excess tea leaves in the measuring cup 10 that are higher than the mouth of the cup. The scraped tea leaves fall into the first discharge plate 13 below and are conveyed to the recycling container by the first discharge plate 13. After the excess tea leaves are cleaned up, the first motor 21 stops and the second motor 22 starts again, driving the measuring cup 10 to move towards the discharge funnel 4. Quantitative cup alignment funnel: When the cleaned quantitative cup 10 rotates to directly above the discharge funnel 4, the second motor 22 stops rotating. At this time, the mouth of the quantitative cup 10 is aligned with the inlet of the discharge funnel 4 to ensure that the tea leaves can be poured into the funnel smoothly. Dispensing the metering cup: Activate the second electric push rod 28 on one side of the U-shaped frame 8. The second electric push rod 28 pushes the toothed plate 30 to move horizontally. Since the toothed plate 30 meshes with the gear 29, the toothed plate 30 drives the gear 29 to rotate around the rotating shaft 27. The gear 29 then drives the support ring 9 and the metering cup 10 to rotate synchronously. The tea leaves in the metering cup 10 are poured into the discharge funnel 4 under the action of gravity. The tea leaves are guided by the discharge funnel 4 to fall into the packaging bag below, completing one filling operation. Metering cup reset: After the tea leaves are completely poured out, the second electric push rod 28 drives the toothed plate 30 to move in the opposite direction. The gear 29, support ring 9 and metering cup 10 are synchronously flipped and reset. Then the second motor 22 is started again, driving the empty metering cup 10 to continue rotating, waiting for the next round of filling. At the same time, the next metering cup 10 that has been cleaned moves to the discharge funnel 4 area and repeats the filling steps.
[0025] The technical scope of this utility model is not limited to the content described above. Those skilled in the art can make various modifications and variations to the above embodiments without departing from the technical concept of this utility model, and all such modifications and variations should fall within the protection scope of this utility model.
