Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of edible fungus canning processing, specifically relating to an automatic pushing device for a trolley used for steaming edible fungus cans. Background Technology

[0002] In the processing of canned edible fungi, autoclaving is a crucial step in ensuring product safety and extending shelf life. Currently, the common practice in the industry is for workers to push trolleys loaded with canned edible fungi into large autoclaves for sterilization. However, since the feed inlet of the autoclave is usually higher than the workshop floor, a long ramp is placed in front of the autoclave to facilitate the smooth entry of the trolley into the autoclave. Workers then manually push the trolley full of canned goods into the autoclave along the long ramp.

[0003] Due to the steep slope, it is quite difficult for workers to push the trolleys loaded with canned edible fungi. Furthermore, the trolleys' center of gravity shifts backward on the steep slope, reducing the grip of the front wheels and making them prone to deviation. This makes it difficult for the trolley wheels to align with the tracks inside the autoclave, increasing the difficulty of operation.

[0004] Therefore, we propose an automatic pushing device for steaming edible fungi canned goods to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0005] To address the challenges of pushing a trolley loaded with canned edible fungi on a steep slope, where workers find it difficult to push, and where the trolley's center of gravity shifts backward, reducing the front wheels' grip and making it prone to drifting, thus increasing the difficulty of aligning the trolley's wheels with the tracks inside the autoclave, this invention provides an automatic pushing device for trolleys used in the steaming of canned edible fungi.

[0006] The solution adopted by this utility model to solve its technical problem is: an automatic pushing device for a small cart for steaming edible fungi canned food, including a traction unit and N sets of lifting units. The traction unit includes a drive motor, a traction seat, two guide rails and two bottom beams. The two bottom beams are respectively set below the two guide rails, and two mounting seats are welded and fixed between the bottom beams and the guide rails. A rotating shaft is rotatably mounted between the two mounting bases, and at least one sprocket is fitted on the rotating shaft. The two sprockets are connected by a chain drive. A drive motor is mounted on the outer side of any of the mounting bases, and its output shaft is connected to the corresponding rotating shaft to drive the rotating shaft to rotate. The bottom of the traction seat is provided with at least one mounting part, which is connected to the chain. The traction seat has two through holes for connecting the trolley pin. The N lifting units are divided into two groups and symmetrically arranged on the front and rear sides of the traction unit. The lifting unit includes a linear drive component and two guide rods. The bottom end of the guide rod is fixed to the ground and a fixing sleeve is fitted on it. The fixing sleeve can slide up and down along the guide rod and is welded and fixed to the side of the bottom beam. The top ends of the two guide rods are welded to the same fixed seat. The linear drive component is installed on the fixed seat and connected to the bottom beam through the connecting seat, which is used to drive the bottom beam to move up and down.

[0007] Preferably, multiple vertical supports are welded and fixed between the guide rail and the bottom beam.

[0008] Preferably, the guide rail is made of angle steel and the bottom beam is made of square or rectangular tubing.

[0009] Preferably, the linear drive component is a hydraulic rod or an electric cylinder.

[0010] Preferably, it also includes a ramp, which is placed on the ground and located on the left side of the bottom beam.

[0011] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are: 1. This utility model controls the synchronous contraction of multiple hydraulic rods to move the bottom beam and guide rail upwards, aligning the end of the guide rail with the inlet track of the autoclave at the same horizontal level. The drive motor drives the rotating shaft and sprocket to rotate, which in turn drives the chain. The traction seat pulls the trolley, which is guided forward smoothly and straight by the chain under the constraint of the two guide rails. This ensures that the wheels of the trolley can smoothly enter and accurately align with the track inside the autoclave without any deviation, which not only reduces the difficulty of operation but also greatly reduces the workload of workers.

[0012] 2. This utility model uses a hydraulic rod. When the hydraulic rod extends, it lowers the bottom beam and guide rail, making it easier for workers to load the canned edible fungi from the conveyor belt into the trolley. When the hydraulic rod retracts, it raises the bottom beam and guide rail, aligning the end of the guide rail with the inlet track of the autoclave at the same horizontal level, so that the traction unit can pull the trolley from the loading area to the autoclave.

[0013] 3. This utility model incorporates a ramp to facilitate workers in smoothly pushing unloaded trolleys onto the two guide rails, thus simplifying their work and reducing their workload. Attached Figure Description

[0016] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0017] Please see Figure 1-3 This utility model provides a technical solution for an automatic pushing device for a trolley used in the steaming of canned edible fungi: Example 1: according to Figure 1-3 As shown, the system includes a traction unit and N lifting units. The traction unit includes a drive motor 54, a traction seat 6, two guide rails 1, and two bottom beams 2. The two bottom beams 2 are respectively located below the two guide rails 1. The guide rails 1 are made of angle steel, and the bottom beams 2 are made of rectangular tubing. Two mounting seats 4 are welded and fixed between the bottom beams 2 and the guide rails 1. Multiple vertical supports 3 are welded and fixed between the guide rails 1 and the bottom beams 2. The vertical supports 3 are located between the two mounting seats 4, thereby ensuring that the frame structure is sturdy and durable and can withstand repeated use of heavy-duty trolleys.

[0018] A bearing seat is installed on the mounting base 4, and a rotating shaft 52 is rotatably installed between the front and rear bearing seats. At least one sprocket 51 is mounted on the rotating shaft 52. In this embodiment, two sprockets 51 are provided on one rotating shaft 52. The left and right sprockets 51 are connected by a chain 53. The drive motor 54 is installed on the outer side of any mounting base 4, and its output shaft is connected to the corresponding rotating shaft 52. The drive motor 54 drives the rotating shaft 52 and the sprocket 51 to rotate, thereby driving the chain 53 to run.

[0019] At least one mounting part is provided at the bottom of the traction seat 6. In this embodiment, there are two mounting parts. The mounting part is connected to the chain 53. Two through holes 61 are provided on the traction seat 6. By pushing the trolley onto the two guide rails 1 and inserting the pin of the trolley into the through hole 61, the chain 53 pulls the trolley through the traction seat 6 during operation. Under the constraint of the two guide rails 1, the trolley is pulled forward smoothly and straight by the chain 53, thereby ensuring that the wheels of the trolley can smoothly enter and accurately connect to the track in the autoclave without deviation. This not only reduces the difficulty of operation, but also greatly reduces the workload of workers.

[0020] The N lifting units are divided into two groups and symmetrically arranged on the front and rear sides of the traction unit. The number of lifting units can be set according to the length of the traction unit. The lifting unit includes a linear drive component and two guide rods 71. The bottom end of the guide rod 71 is fixed to the ground, and a fixing sleeve 74 is fitted on it. The fixing sleeve 74 can slide up and down along the guide rod 71. The fixing sleeve 74 is welded and fixed to the side of the bottom beam 2. Through the cooperation of the guide rod 71 and the fixing sleeve 74, the bottom beam 2 can be ensured to move vertically up and down.

[0021] The top ends of the two guide rods 71 ​​are welded and fixed to the same fixed seat 73. The linear drive component is a hydraulic rod 72, or an electric cylinder can be used as needed. The hydraulic rod 72 is installed on the fixed seat 73 and connected to the bottom beam 2 through the connecting seat. It is used to drive the bottom beam 2 to move up and down. When the hydraulic rod 72 is set, when the hydraulic rod 72 extends, the bottom beam 2 and the guide rail 1 descend, so that the workers can load the edible fungi cans on the conveyor belt into the trolley. When the hydraulic rod 72 retracts, the bottom beam 2 and the guide rail 1 rise, so that the end of the guide rail 1 corresponds to the inlet rail of the autoclave and is at the same horizontal height, so that the traction unit can pull the trolley from the loading area to the autoclave.

[0022] It also includes a ramp 8, which is placed on the ground and located on the left side of the bottom beam 2. By setting the ramp 8, it is possible for workers to smoothly push the unloaded trolleys onto the two guide rails 1, which facilitates the workers' work and reduces their workload.

[0023] In practical use, the automatic pushing device for steaming edible fungus canned goods of this utility model first pushes the empty trolley onto the two guide rails 1 via the ramp 8. Then, the pin at the left end of the trolley is inserted into the through hole 61 on the traction seat 6 to connect the trolley to the traction seat 6. Then, the worker loads the edible fungus canned goods on the conveyor belt into the trolley. After the trolley is filled with canned edible fungi, the synchronous retraction of multiple hydraulic rods 72 is controlled to move the bottom beam 2 and guide rail 1 upward, so that the end of the guide rail 1 corresponds to the inlet track of the autoclave and is at the same horizontal height. Then, the drive motor 54 is started, which drives the rotating shaft 52 and the sprocket 51 to rotate, thereby driving the chain 53 to run. The traction seat 6 pulls the trolley to move smoothly along the guide rail 1. The trolley moves in a straight line under the constraint of the guide rail 1 and finally enters the internal track of the autoclave precisely. The worker pulls out the pin, separating the traction seat 6 from the trolley, and manually pushes the trolley further into the autoclave. Finally, the drive motor 54 reverses, the traction seat 6 returns to its initial position, and multiple hydraulic rods 72 are extended to drive the bottom beam 2 and guide rail 1 to descend to the low position. At this time, the first end of the guide rail 1 is flush with the ground slope 8, ready for the next operation.
