[0052] To make the above-mentioned objectives, features and advantages of this utility model more apparent and understandable, the specific embodiments of this utility model will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0053] Embodiments of the present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. Preferred embodiments of the present invention will now be described in detail, examples of which are shown in the drawings. Wherever possible, the same reference numerals will be used in all the drawings to denote the same or similar parts.
[0054] Furthermore, although the terminology used in this invention is selected from commonly known and used terms, some terms mentioned in this specification may have been selected by the applicant in his or her judgment, and their detailed meanings are explained in the relevant sections of the description herein.
[0055] Furthermore, it is required that this utility model be understood not only through the actual terminology used, but also through the meaning implied by each term.
[0056] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, this utility model provides a frame for a dynamic checkweigher, comprising: a frame body 10 with a frame structure, at least one set of symmetrically arranged mounting brackets 20, at least one set of symmetrically arranged mounting plates 30, and reinforcing plates 40. The mounting brackets 20 are fixed to the lower outer side of the frame body 10 and extend outwards. The mounting plates 30 are fixed to the corresponding mounting brackets 20 and are used to mount components of the checkweigher. For example, the components for mounting the checkweigher may be an electrical control box, or other components required by the checkweigher. The reinforcing plates 40 are fixed between the mounting plates 30 and the outer side of the frame body 10.
[0057] Preferably, the frame body 10 includes multiple vertically arranged first columns 11 (e.g., square tubes or other shaped columnar structural members) and multiple horizontally arranged first circular tubes 12, with each first column 11 fixed between two adjacent first circular tubes 12. The multiple first circular tubes 12 form a frame structure, and the first columns 11 at each vertex of the frame structure serve to support the entire frame body 10.
[0058] The mounting bracket 20 includes multiple vertically arranged second columns 21 and multiple horizontally arranged second round tubes 22. One end of the second round tube 22 is fixed to the outside of the frame body 10, and the other end is connected to the second column 21. The second column 21 is located on the outside of the frame body 10.
[0059] Here, the connection and fixation between the first column 11, the first round tube 12, the second column 21 and the second round tube 22 can be achieved by welding or other fixed connection methods, all of which are within the protection scope of this application.
[0060] In addition, the first round pipe 12 and the second round pipe 22 are round pipes, mainly to facilitate cleaning, prevent dirt from accumulating, and keep the horizontally arranged pipes clean.
[0061] A support plate 111 can be installed on the top of the first column 11. For example, the support plate 111 can be set as a sloping structure. This structure can ensure the cleanliness and hygiene of the equipment and prevent the accumulation of dirt on the surface. Similarly, the first circular tube 12 and the second circular tube 22 adopt a circular tube structure, which utilizes their smooth arc surface to ensure the cleanliness and hygiene of the equipment and prevent the accumulation of dirt on the surface.
[0062] like Figures 5 to 8 As shown, at least one set of symmetrically arranged mounting plates 30 are mirror-arranged components, mounted and fixed on the mounting bracket 20, collectively providing mounting interfaces for components of the checkweigher (e.g., the electrical control box). Preferably, the mounting plate 30 includes an interconnected flat plate 31 and an inclined plate 32, with one end of the inclined plate 32 connected to the top of the second column 21 and the other end connected to the outer side of the first column 11, located above the mounting bracket 20. The flat plate 31 is arranged horizontally and located above the mounting bracket 20.
[0063] For example Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the planar plates 31 of the mutually mirror-arranged mounting plates 30 extend towards each other in the horizontal direction. Alternatively, the planar plates 31 of the mutually mirror-arranged mounting plates 30 extend towards each other in the horizontal direction and are connected as a whole, that is, the two mirror-arranged mounting plates 30 are set as a whole. This structure can improve the strength of the frame.
[0064] With the above installation method, the front end of the mounting plate 30 is connected to the second column 21, and the flat plate 31 and the inclined plate 32 are flush with the outer end face of the second column 21.
[0065] Preferably, the mounting plate 30 may further include a vertical plate 33, which connects to the side of the inclined plate 32 and is located outside the second circular tube 22.
[0066] In this embodiment, the angle between the upright plate 33 and the inclined plate 32 is preferably an obtuse angle, and the angle between the upright plate 33 and the flat plate 31 is preferably 90°. The upright plate 33 is flush with the outer end face of the second column 21 and the first column 11.
[0067] The flat plate 31 is preferably horizontal, and the angle between the flat plate 31 and the inclined plate 32 is preferably obtuse, so as to prevent the accumulation of foreign objects.
[0068] The reinforcing plate 40 is connected to the flat plate 31, and the reinforcing plate 40 is fixed between the first column 11, the flat plate 31, and the first circular tube 12. The included angle between the reinforcing plate 40 and the flat plate 31 is preferably 90°.
[0069] The reinforcing plate 40 in this embodiment has the following advantages: Firstly, it can improve the overall strength and rigidity of the frame, reduce the tendency of the frame to swing in the horizontal and vertical directions, and reduce the impact of frame deformation on sensor accuracy. Secondly, it can also reduce the problem of insufficient local rigidity caused by the installation of components of the checkweigher (such as the electrical control box) onto the mounting plate 30.
[0070] The flat plate 31 has multiple oblong holes 311, for example, multiple oblong holes 311 arranged side by side, for fixing components of the checkweigher (such as the electrical control box). In this way, the components of the checkweigher (such as the electrical control box) can be installed as needed.
[0071] In addition, a first clearance hole 34 is provided at the connection between the upright plate 33 and the inclined plate 32. A second clearance hole 35 is provided at the connection between the flat plate 31 and the inclined plate 32. Considering the bending process of sheet metal parts, the first clearance hole 34 and the second clearance hole 35 facilitate the bending of the upright plate 33 and the inclined plate 32.
[0072] This utility model also provides a checkweigher, which includes the frame for a dynamic checkweigher as described above.
[0073] The frame of this utility model for dynamic checkweighers is adaptable to various application scenarios, such as:
[0074] Application scenario: Dynamic weighing of 6kg of unpackaged food.
[0075] Dynamic weighing of unpackaged foods is used in automated food production lines, typically for food processing and packaging, such as for the weight detection of meat, fruits, vegetables, and seafood. These foods are usually transported directly from the production line and require rapid and accurate weighing to ensure product quality and compliance with regulations.
[0076] Vibrations generated by equipment and product conveying on the production line, excluding the dynamic checkweigher, can affect weighing accuracy. Furthermore, unpackaged food easily leaves residue and stains that accumulate on the frame surface, making them difficult to clean. Therefore, the frame for the dynamic checkweigher provided in this invention features a reinforcing plate design that improves the overall strength of the frame, reducing the impact of insufficient strength on sensor accuracy. The design of the round tube and beveled surface also ensures a hygienic frame design.
[0077] Based on the above structural description, the frame of this utility model for a dynamic checkweigher has the following characteristics:
[0078] First, the mounting plate can be connected to both the vertical square tube and the horizontal round tube, thus solving the problem that the existing frame tends to swing in both the horizontal and vertical directions, which causes frame deformation and affects the accuracy of the sensor.
[0079] Second, the reinforcing plate installed on the mounting plate can reduce the impact of insufficient local rigidity caused by the installation of components of the checkweigher (such as the electrical control box).
