Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of quick-freezing machine technology, specifically to a conveyor belt structure for a quick-freezing machine. Background Technology

[0002] Quick-freezing machines are highly efficient freezing equipment that freezes large quantities of products in a short time to reduce nutrient loss and preserve the original flavor. They can effectively and economically freeze a variety of products placed inside the quick-freezing machine. When freezing food, quick-freezing machines need to be used in conjunction with a mesh belt structure to transport the food.

[0003] In traditional quick-freezing machines, food to be frozen is placed on top of a conveyor belt. As the conveyor belt operates, it transports the food into the machine, where it is quick-frozen from above. Because the conveyor belt itself is full of gaps and holes, food residue, frost, and dirt can easily accumulate over time. If these impurities are not cleaned after the conveyor belt has been used, it will provide a breeding ground for bacteria, seriously threatening food hygiene and safety. Utility Model Content

[0004] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides a conveyor belt structure for a quick-freezing machine. This solves the problem that in traditional quick-freezing machines, food to be frozen is placed on the conveyor belt structure, which transports the food into the machine during operation. The machine then freezes the food from above. However, because the conveyor belt itself is full of gaps and holes, food residue, frost, and dirt easily accumulate over long-term use. If these impurities are not cleaned after use, they can create a breeding ground for bacteria, seriously threatening food hygiene and safety.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a conveyor belt structure for a quick-freezing machine, comprising a main body, a transmission mechanism internally therein, a support frame fixedly connected to the bottom of the main body, a feed pipe fixedly connected to one side of the top of the main body, and a cleaning device disposed on the lower interior side of the main body near the feed pipe. The cleaning device comprises: a cleaning brush rotatably connected to the lower inner wall of the main body near the feed pipe via a sealed bearing and fitting against the outer wall of the transmission mechanism; a servo motor fixedly connected to the front side of the main body near the feed pipe and fixedly connected to the front side of the cleaning brush; a three-way pipe connected to the bottom of the main body near the feed pipe; a filter plate inserted into the lower inner wall of the main body near the feed pipe and fitting against one end of the three-way pipe; and a valve fixedly connected to the outer wall of the three-way pipe. The servo motor drives the cleaning brush to rotate and clean the transmission mechanism. Twisting the valve opens the three-way pipe, allowing the cleaned wastewater to drain outwards from the three-way pipe.

[0006] Preferably, the inner wall of the main body is rotatably connected to a guide roller, and the outer wall of the guide roller meshes with the mesh belt in the transmission mechanism.

[0007] Preferably, a discharge plate is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the main body on the side away from the feed pipe, and two mounting plates are fixedly connected above the inner wall of the main body on the side away from the feed pipe, with ultraviolet lamps fixedly connected to the inner sides of the two mounting plates.

[0008] Preferably, the inner wall of the main body is provided with a drying device, which includes: an outer frame, fixedly connected to the inner wall of the main body near the feed pipe; a hot air blower, fixedly connected to the inner wall of the outer frame; and multiple exhaust hoods, all fixedly connected to the bottom of the outer frame and connected to the output end of the hot air blower. When the hot air blower is working, it blows hot air through the multiple exhaust hoods onto the surface of the transmission mechanism to dry the cleaned transmission mechanism.

[0009] Preferably, the top of the main body is provided with an air inlet device, which includes: multiple connecting pipes, all connected to the inner wall of the main body away from the feed pipe; an air guide pipe connected to the top of the multiple connecting pipes; an outer cylinder slidably engaged with the outer wall of the air guide pipe; and two electric push rods, both fixedly connected to the bottom of the outer cylinder and fixedly connected to the top of the main body. When the two electric push rods are working, they drive the outer cylinder to move upward, and the outer cylinder presses against the lower part of the quick-freezing machine's air outlet, ensuring that cold air passes from the outer cylinder through the air guide pipe and then enters the interior of the main body through the multiple connecting pipes.

[0010] Beneficial effects

[0011] This utility model provides a conveyor belt structure for a quick-freezing machine. It offers the following advantages: the conveyor belt structure of this quick-freezing machine uses a cleaning device to thoroughly clean food residue adhering to the surface of the conveyor belt. Wastewater generated during cleaning is promptly discharged. Filter plates that trap residue during the filtration process can be easily removed by the operator for specialized cleaning. Simultaneously, ultraviolet lamps continuously disinfect the conveyor belt structure from all angles, ensuring deep cleaning of the main body and transmission mechanism, effectively preventing bacterial growth and guaranteeing food hygiene and safety.

[0012] The drying device removes residual water stains from the surface of the transmission mechanism, preventing the conveyor belt from rusting due to long-term moisture retention and extending the service life of the equipment. The air inlet device is connected to the air outlet of the quick-freezing machine to create an efficient cold air circulation channel, ensuring that the cold air inside the quick-freezing machine can evenly cover the surface of the transmission mechanism, allowing food to fully contact the cold air and achieve all-round, no-dead-angle rapid freezing, ensuring the consistency of frozen quality.

[0018] 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.

[0019] Those skilled in the art can connect the components in this case sequentially. The specific connection and operation sequence should refer to the working principle described below. The detailed connection methods are well-known technologies in the field. The working principle and process are mainly described below.

[0020] In traditional quick-freezing machines, food to be frozen is placed on top of a conveyor belt structure. As the conveyor belt operates, it transports the food into the machine, where it is quick-frozen from above. Because the conveyor belt itself is full of gaps and holes, food residue, frost, and dirt can easily accumulate over time. If these impurities are not cleaned after the conveyor belt structure is used, it will provide a breeding ground for bacteria, seriously threatening food hygiene and safety.

[0021] In view of this, the present invention provides a mesh belt structure for a quick-freezing machine. The cleaning device thoroughly cleans the food residue attached to the surface of the mesh belt, and the wastewater generated during cleaning is discharged in a timely manner. The filter plates that trap residue during the filtration process can be easily removed by the operator for special cleaning. At the same time, the ultraviolet lamp continuously disinfects the mesh belt structure in all directions, and the main body and transmission mechanism can be deeply cleaned, effectively preventing bacterial growth and ensuring the hygiene and safety of food.

[0022] Example 1: By Figure 1 , 2 As shown in points 3 and 4, a conveyor belt structure for a quick-freezing machine includes a main body 1. A transmission mechanism 3 is installed inside the main body 1. A support frame 4 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the main body 1. A feed pipe 7 is fixedly connected to one side of the top of the main body 1. A cleaning device 2 is installed on the lower inner wall of the main body 1 near the feed pipe 7. The cleaning device 2 includes: a cleaning brush 21, rotatably connected to the lower inner wall of the main body 1 near the feed pipe 7 via a sealed bearing, and in contact with the outer wall of the transmission mechanism 3; and a servo motor 22, fixedly connected to the main body 1. The cleaning brush 21 is fixedly connected to the front side of the feed pipe 7; the three-way pipe 23 is connected to the bottom of the main body 1 near the feed pipe 7; the filter plate 24 is inserted into the lower part of the inner wall of the main body 1 near the feed pipe 7 and is attached to one end of the three-way pipe 23; the valve 25 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the three-way pipe 23; wherein, the cleaning brush 21 is driven to rotate by the servo motor 22 to clean the transmission mechanism 3, and the three-way pipe 23 is opened after the valve 25 is turned, and the cleaned wastewater is discharged outward from the three-way pipe 23;

[0023] In the specific implementation process, it is worth noting that the transmission mechanism 3 includes at least one active roller, at least one driven roller, a servo motor, a mesh belt, and a tensioning wheel. The mesh belt meshes with the outer walls of the active roller and the driven roller. Under the action of the servo motor, the active roller drives the driven roller to rotate through the mesh belt to realize the conveying of materials. The feed pipe 7 facilitates the entry of materials into the interior of the main body 1. The model of the servo motor 22 is not limited, as long as it meets the usage requirements. When the servo motor 22 is working, it drives the cleaning brush 21 to rotate and clean the transmission mechanism 3. After cleaning, the sewage is discharged outward from the three-way pipe 23. The upper part of the three-way pipe 23 is connected to the water inlet pipe, and the lower part of the three-way pipe 23 is connected to the sewage outlet pipe. The cleaning brush 21 can be replaced periodically according to the aging condition. The mesh count of the filter plate 24 is not specifically limited, as long as it meets the usage requirements. The bottom of the support frame 4 is equipped with multiple self-locking universal wheels, which facilitates the adjustment of the main body 1 to different positions.

[0024] Furthermore, a guide roller 11 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the main body 1, and the outer wall of the guide roller 11 meshes with the mesh belt in the transmission mechanism 3.

[0025] In the specific implementation process, it is worth noting that the transmission mechanism 3 drives the guide roller 11 to rotate, and the guide roller 11 adjusts the position of the transmission mechanism 3 to below the clean water surface.

[0026] Furthermore, a discharge plate 10 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the main body 1 on the side away from the feed pipe 7, and two mounting plates 8 are fixedly connected above the inner wall of the main body 1 on the side away from the feed pipe 7, with ultraviolet lamps 9 fixedly connected to the inner side of the two mounting plates 8.

[0027] In the specific implementation process, it is worth noting that the quick-frozen food is discharged outward from the discharge plate 10, and the two mounting plates 8 are fixed to the ultraviolet lamps 9. The model of the ultraviolet lamps 9 is not specifically limited, as long as it meets the usage requirements. The frozen food is discharged outward from the discharge plate 10.

[0028] Specifically, when using the conveyor belt structure of this quick-freezing machine, if the main body 1 needs to be stopped for cleaning, the operator turns the valve 25 to adjust the three-way pipe 23 to connect with the cleaning water pipe, allowing external cleaning water to enter the main body 1. The guide roller 11 guides the transmission mechanism 3 into the cleaning water, controls the servo motor 22 to work, and drives the cleaning brush 21 to rotate. The transmission mechanism 3 is then in working condition, and the cleaning brush 21 cleans different positions of the transmission mechanism 3. After cleaning, the valve 25 is turned to adjust the three-way pipe 23 to connect with the sewage pipe, and the sewage is discharged from the sewage pipe. At the same time, the filter plate 24 filters out impurities in the sewage to prevent impurities from clogging the sewage pipe. The filter plate 24, which is fixed by bolts, can be periodically removed to clean the impurities on its surface. The frozen food is discharged from the discharge plate 10. When the ultraviolet lamp 9 is working, it can sterilize and disinfect the transmission mechanism 3.

[0029] Example 2: From Figure 1 , 2 As shown in section 3, the inner wall of the main body 1 is equipped with a drying device 5. The drying device 5 includes: an outer frame 51, which is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the main body 1 on the side near the feed pipe 7; a hot air blower 52, which is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the outer frame 51; and multiple exhaust hoods 53, which are all fixedly connected to the bottom of the outer frame 51 and are all connected to the output end of the hot air blower 52. When the hot air blower 52 is working, it blows hot air through multiple exhaust hoods 53 onto the surface of the transmission mechanism 3 to dry the cleaned transmission mechanism 3.

[0030] In the specific implementation process, it is worth noting that there is no specific restriction on the model of the hot air blower 52, as long as it meets the usage requirements. When the hot air blower 52 is working, it blows hot air through multiple exhaust hoods 53 to the cleaned transmission mechanism 3.

[0031] Specifically, based on the above embodiment one, the staff controls the hot air blower 52 to work. The hot air blower 52 draws in and heats the outside air, and blows it onto the surface of the transmission mechanism 3 through multiple exhaust hoods 53 to dry the transmission mechanism 3 and prevent the transmission mechanism 3 from rusting.

[0032] Example 3: From Figure 1 , 2 As shown in section 4, the top of the main body 1 is provided with an air inlet device 6, which includes: multiple connecting pipes 62, all connected to the inner wall of the main body 1 away from the feed pipe 7; an air guide pipe 61, connected to the top of the multiple connecting pipes 62; an outer cylinder 63, which is slidably engaged with the outer wall of the air guide pipe 61; and two electric push rods 64, both fixedly connected to the bottom of the outer cylinder 63 and fixedly connected to the top of the main body 1. When the two electric push rods 64 are working, they drive the outer cylinder 63 to move upward, and the outer cylinder 63 presses against the bottom of the quick-freezing machine's air outlet, ensuring that cold air enters the interior of the main body 1 from the outer cylinder 63 through the air guide pipe 61 and then through the multiple connecting pipes 62.

[0033] In the specific implementation process, it is worth noting that there is no specific restriction on the model of the electric push rod 64, as long as it meets the usage requirements. When the electric push rod 64 is working, it drives the outer cylinder 63 to move and press against the air outlet of the quick-freezing machine. The cold air enters the body 1 through the air guide pipe 61 and the connecting pipe 62. The top of the connecting pipe 62 is equipped with a sealing rubber gasket to prevent air leakage at the joint between the connecting pipe 62 and the quick-freezing machine.

[0034] Specifically, based on the above embodiment 1, after the main body 1 moves to the designated position, the staff controls the two electric push rods 64 to work. The two electric push rods 64 drive the outer cylinder 63 to press against the air outlet of the quick-freezing machine. When the quick-freezing machine is working, cold air is sent from the outer cylinder 63 into the air guide pipe 61. The cold air inside the air guide pipe 61 is sent into the interior of the main body 1 through multiple connecting pipes 62 to quick-freeze the food above the transmission mechanism 3.

[0035] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
