AI Technical Summary
Current technology cannot weigh and detect cakes, which means that cakes may weigh significantly or be very light, making it impossible to guarantee that they will stay within the specified weight.
Weighing components, including pressure sensors and indicator components, are installed on the sorting table. The pressure sensor detects the cake weight in real time, and the controller determines whether the weight exceeds the threshold. It then triggers a buzzer and an alarm light to sound an alarm. Combined with anti-slip mats, this prevents the cake from slipping, forming a smooth weighing and packaging operation flow.
It enables real-time detection of cake weight and provides anomaly alerts, shortening the time for identifying problematic cakes, improving the smoothness and standardization of sorting operations, and reducing detection errors and operation time.

Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of cake weighing and sorting tables, specifically a cake weighing and sorting table. Background Technology
[0002] The sorting table disclosed in the authorization announcement number CN205602263U includes: a support frame, an operating table, and multiple discharging devices. The support frame is located directly below the operating table to support the operating table. The multiple discharging devices are arranged along the outer edge of the operating table. In addition, multiple storage slots for storing sorting fixtures are also provided along the outer edge of the operating table, and the storage slots are arranged between adjacent discharging devices.
[0003] The storage slots on the operating table can be used to store the clamps for sorting food, keeping the clamps hygienic while allowing staff to easily access them. Furthermore, the design of the packaging bag fixing rack on the discharging device prevents oil stains from sticking to the bag opening when manually holding the bag, thus avoiding the problem of not being able to seal it.
[0004] The technical solution in the prior art document is convenient for picking up and packaging food, but it cannot weigh cakes. Cakes need to be weighed, and if the weight is too large or too small, the weight needs to be adjusted to ensure that it is kept within the specified weight. Utility Model Content
[0005] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides a cake product weighing and sorting station, which solves the problem of not being able to weigh and inspect cake products, the need to inspect the weight of cake products, and the need to modify the weight for cases where the weight is too large or too small to ensure that it remains within the specified weight range.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: a cake weighing and sorting platform, comprising a sorting platform, a placement platform for placing packaging bags fixedly connected to the side of the sorting platform, a placement rack for placing cake clips fixedly connected to the adjacent part of the placement platform, a weighing component fixedly connected to the top surface of the sorting platform, and a prompting component fixedly connected to the side of the weighing component.
[0007] The weighing assembly includes a base plate fixedly connected to the top surface of the sorting table. A pressure sensor is fixedly connected to the top surface of the base plate. A placement plate is fixedly connected to the top surface of the pressure sensor. A groove is formed on the top surface of the placement plate. An anti-slip pad is fixedly connected inside the groove.
[0008] The prompting component includes a device box fixedly connected to the side of the placement plate. A controller is sleeved inside the device box. Two sleeve holes are symmetrically opened on the top surface of the device box. A buzzer and an alarm light are respectively sleeved inside the two sleeve holes.
[0009] In one specific embodiment, the output of the pressure sensor is electrically connected to the input of the controller.
[0010] In one specific embodiment, the anti-slip pad is fixedly embedded in a groove on the top surface of the placement plate.
[0011] In one specific embodiment, the controller is completely housed inside the device box and is fixedly fitted to the device box.
[0012] In one specific embodiment, the controller output is electrically connected to the buzzer and the alarm light input.
[0013] In one specific embodiment, the placement rack is positioned adjacent to the placement table.
[0014] Compared with the prior art, this utility model provides a cake weighing and sorting station, which has the following beneficial effects:
[0015] In the technical solution disclosed in this utility model, the pressure sensor of the weighing component detects the weight of the cake in real time, and the controller of the prompting component dynamically determines whether the weight exceeds the threshold, and links the buzzer and alarm light for dual-mode alarm, so that the operator can accurately locate the abnormal cake in time; at the same time, the anti-slip pad is embedded in the groove of the placement plate to prevent the cake from shifting, and the adjacent design of the placement platform and the placement rack indicates the efficiency of packaging and clamping.
[0016] The weighing and alerting components of this invention are installed on the top surface of the sorting table. When a cake is placed on the anti-slip pad of the placement plate, the pressure sensor collects weight data in real time and transmits it to the controller. If the weight exceeds or falls below a preset threshold, the controller simultaneously drives the buzzer to sound an alarm and illuminates the alarm light. The dual sound and light signals quickly identify abnormal workstations, significantly shortening the troubleshooting time for problematic cakes. The anti-slip pad embedded in the groove of the placement plate effectively increases frictional resistance, preventing the cake from slipping during weighing and causing detection errors. Furthermore, the placement plate fixedly connected to the side of the sorting table is used to store packaging bags, and a placement rack is set up next to it to store cake clips, forming a continuous weighing and packaging operation flow, greatly improving the smoothness and standardization of the sorting operation.

[0023] The following will describe in detail the implementation of this application with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments, so that the implementation process of how this application uses technical means to solve technical problems and achieve technical effects can be fully understood and implemented accordingly.
[0024] Figures 1-4 In one embodiment of this utility model, a cake weighing and sorting station includes a sorting station 1, a placement platform 2 for placing packaging bags is fixedly connected to the side of the sorting station 1, a placement rack 3 for placing cake clips is fixedly connected to the adjacent part of the placement platform 2, a weighing component 4 is fixedly connected to the top surface of the sorting station 1, and a prompting component 5 is fixedly connected to the side of the weighing component 4.
[0025] The specific problem addressed in this embodiment is the inability to weigh cakes, the need to measure the weight of cakes, and the requirement to adjust the weight for cases where it is too large or too small to ensure it remains within a specified range. This invention uses a pressure sensor 42 in the weighing component 4 to detect the cake's weight in real time. The controller 52 in the indicator component 5 dynamically determines whether the weight exceeds a threshold and triggers a dual-mode alarm with a buzzer 53 and an alarm light 54, allowing operators to immediately and accurately locate abnormal cakes. Simultaneously, an anti-slip pad 44 is embedded in the groove of the placement plate 43 to prevent cake displacement, and the adjacent design of the placement platform 2 and the placement rack 3 indicates efficient packaging and handling.
[0026] The weighing component 4 includes a base plate 41 fixedly connected to the top surface of the sorting table 1. A pressure sensor 42 is fixedly connected to the top surface of the base plate 41, and a placement plate 43 is fixedly connected to the top surface of the pressure sensor 42. A groove is formed on the top surface of the placement plate 43, and an anti-slip pad 44 is fixedly connected inside the groove. The prompting component 5 includes a device box 51 fixedly connected to the side of the placement plate 43. A controller 52 is sleeved inside the device box 51. Two sleeve holes are symmetrically formed on the top surface of the device box 51. A buzzer 53 and an alarm light 54 are respectively sleeved inside the two sleeve holes. In this specific embodiment, the output terminal of the pressure sensor 42 is electrically connected to the input terminal of the controller 52. A weighing component 4 is installed on the top surface of the sorting table 1. When the cake is placed on the anti-slip pad 44 of the placement plate 43, the pressure sensor 42 collects the weight data in real time and transmits it to the controller 52. If the weight exceeds or falls below the preset threshold, the controller 52 synchronously drives the buzzer 53 to issue an audible alarm and illuminates the alarm light 54. The abnormal workstation is quickly identified through the dual signals of sound and light, which significantly shortens the troubleshooting time for problematic cakes. The anti-slip pad 44 embedded in the groove of the placement plate 43 effectively increases the frictional resistance and prevents the cake from slipping during weighing, which would lead to detection errors. Furthermore, the placement table 2, which is fixedly connected to the side of the sorting table 1, is used to store packaging bags, and a placement rack 3 is set up next to it to store cake clips, forming a continuous weighing and packaging operation flow, which greatly improves the smoothness and standardization of the sorting operation.
[0027] In this specific embodiment, the output of the controller 52 is electrically connected to the input of the buzzer 53 and the alarm light 54. The output of the controller 52 is electrically connected to the power input of the buzzer 53 and the drive circuit input of the alarm light 54 via wires. When the pressure sensor 42 detects that the cake weight exceeds the threshold and transmits the signal to the controller 52, the controller 52 simultaneously sends a high-level drive signal to the buzzer 53 and the alarm light 54, causing the buzzer 53 to emit a continuous buzzing sound while the alarm light 54 flashes a red light. This design achieves redundant alarm for abnormal states through a dual sound and light warning mechanism. Even in noisy environments, operators can quickly locate the problem workstation by flashing lights and confirm the equipment's operating status by sound, greatly improving the efficiency of abnormal response.
[0028] In this specific embodiment, the placement rack 3 is located adjacent to the placement table 2; the support rod of the placement rack 3 is welded and fixed to the side end face of the placement table 2, and the hanging height of the clamp of the placement rack 3 is flush with the table surface of the placement table 2, so that when the operator stands in front of the sorting table 1, he can take the cake clip from the placement rack 3 with one hand and move it directly to the packaging bag on the placement table 2; this structure integrates the tool storage area placement rack 3 and the packaging operation area into a seamless workflow through physical proximity design, reducing the number of times the operator's body turns or steps move, and forming a continuous "weighing, clamping and packaging" line with the real-time detection function of the weighing component 4, which significantly reduces the time spent on a single sorting operation and avoids cross-contamination between the cake clip and the packaging bag.
[0029] Working principle: The operator first places the cake to be sorted on the top surface of the placement plate 43 of the weighing component 4. At this time, the cake is in direct contact with the anti-slip mat 44, and the frictional resistance of the anti-slip mat 44 prevents the cake from sliding. The weight of the cake is transmitted to the pressure sensor 42 through the placement plate 43. The pressure sensor 42 converts the weight data into an electrical signal in real time and transmits it to the controller 52 of the prompting component 5. The controller 52 compares the received electrical signal with the preset weight threshold range. When the weight is detected to exceed the upper limit threshold or fall below the lower limit threshold, the controller 52 simultaneously outputs a drive command to the buzzer 53 and the alarm light 54. At this time, the buzzer 53 emits a high-frequency alarm sound, and the alarm light 54 flashes red light, forming a dual-mode alarm signal of sound and light. The operator quickly locates the abnormal cake station according to the alarm signal, uses the cake clips on the placement rack 3 to remove the problematic cake, and corrects it according to the weighing result. After the correction operation is completed, the operator can take the packaging bag from the placement table 2 on the side of the sorting table 1 and use the cake clips to take the qualified cake into the packaging bag to complete the sorting process.

The power supply is also common knowledge in the field. Since this utility model is mainly used to protect mechanical devices, the control method and circuit connection will not be explained in detail.
