Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of processing and production technology, and specifically relates to a bag-turning and feeding device. Background Technology

[0002] In the processing and production of bagged or boxed materials such as Chinese herbal medicine slices, the repackaging and feeding process and subsequent feeding are key steps to ensure production continuity, and require specialized repackaging and feeding equipment to achieve efficient material transfer.

[0003] In the critical stages of material transfer and feeding in the production process, the efficiency and stability of these operations directly affect the overall production line's operating rhythm and product quality. Currently, for feeding such materials, the industry generally adopts traditional integrated feeding equipment, which integrates the material tilting mechanism and the feeding conveying mechanism. The tilted material directly enters the feeding conveying mechanism for transport.

[0004] However, in this traditional design, the feeding and conveying mechanism must directly receive all the material falling from the tilting mechanism, bearing a large material weight load for a long time. As production scale expands and the amount of material fed at one time increases, the load-bearing pressure on the feeding and conveying mechanism continues to rise, which can easily lead to fatigue cracking of the weld at the connection between the mechanism and the frame. This not only requires frequent shutdowns for maintenance, affecting production continuity, but also poses a safety hazard of equipment parts falling off.

[0005] At the same time, the vibration amplitude of the feeding and conveying mechanism will increase significantly under heavy load, and the noise generated will far exceed the industrial environmental noise standard. This will not only harm the hearing health of the operators, but also interfere with the normal operation of the surrounding production equipment. Utility Model Content

[0006] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a bag-turning feeding device. By designing the feeding hopper and the vibrating hopper independently, the feeding hopper is responsible for storing materials, and the vibrating hopper is responsible for conveying materials. Only a small part of the material weight is borne by the vibrating hopper, which can greatly reduce the power consumption of the vibrating motor, making the conveying more stable and reducing the safety hazards of weld cracking and excessive noise. Thus, it achieves the purpose of being convenient and quick to use, with stable feeding and high practicality.

[0007] The specific technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows:

[0008] A bag-turning and feeding device includes a frame, a bag-turning mechanism installed on one side of the frame, a feeding hopper fixedly connected to the frame, an inlet and an outlet respectively opened on the upper and lower sides of the feeding hopper, and a vibrating feeding device located below the feeding hopper fixedly connected to the frame. The feeding hopper and the vibrating feeding device are set independently of each other.

[0009] Furthermore, the bag-flipping mechanism includes a flip plate, one end of which is hinged to the upper side of the frame. A first cylinder is hinged to the frame, the output end of which is hinged to the lower side of the flip plate. A manual valve is fixedly connected to the frame, and the manual valve is pneumatically connected to the first cylinder.

[0010] Furthermore, the vibrating feeder includes a vibrating hopper and an elastic support. Both the elastic support and the vibrating hopper are fixedly connected to the frame. The upper side of the elastic support is fixedly connected to the lower side of the vibrating hopper. A discharge trough is opened on one side of the vibrating hopper. A vibrating motor is fixedly connected to the lower end of the vibrating hopper. The output end of the vibrating motor is connected to the lower end of the vibrating hopper in a transmission connection.

[0011] Furthermore, a second cylinder is fixedly connected to the frame, and a material-pulling plate is fixedly connected to the output end of the second cylinder. The material-pulling plate is rotatably connected to the inside of the frame.

[0012] Furthermore, a magnetic collecting component is installed at the discharge end of the vibrating feeder. The magnetic collecting component includes a strong magnetic rod, which is rotatably connected to one side of the frame and located on one side of the discharge port of the vibrating hopper.

[0013] Furthermore, baffles are fixedly connected to both sides of the flip plate.

[0014] The technical effects achieved by this utility model are as follows:

[0015] This utility model discloses a bag-turning and feeding device that integrates bag turning, feeding, vibrating feeding, material feeding, and strong magnetic iron removal. The design is simple and reasonable, occupies a small area, and is convenient and quick to use.

Only a small portion of the material weight is borne by the vibrating hopper, which can significantly reduce the power consumption of the vibrating motor, making the conveying more stable and reducing safety hazards such as weld cracking and excessive noise. Thus, it achieves the purpose of convenient and quick use, stable feeding, and high practicality. Attached Figure Description

[0023] To make the objectives and advantages of this utility model clearer, the following detailed description is provided in conjunction with embodiments. It should be understood that the following text is merely used to describe one or more specific embodiments of this utility model and does not strictly limit the scope of protection specifically claimed by this utility model.

[0024] like Figures 1-5 As shown, a bag-turning and feeding device includes a frame 4, a bag-turning mechanism installed on one side of the frame 4, a feeding hopper 3 fixedly connected to the frame 4, an inlet and an outlet respectively opened on the upper and lower sides of the feeding hopper 3, the feeding hopper 3 can store a certain amount of material, a vibrating feeding device located below the feeding hopper 3 fixedly connected to the frame 4, the feeding hopper 3 and the vibrating feeding device are set independently of each other, and a magnetic collecting element is installed at the discharge end of the vibrating feeding device;

[0025] The frame 4 serves as the overall supporting foundation for the device. A flipping mechanism installed on one side of the frame 4 is responsible for flipping and conveying bagged or boxed materials. After the flipping mechanism completes the material flipping, the material enters the feeding hopper 3 fixedly connected to the frame 4 along a preset path. The feeding hopper 3, with its hollow structure open on both sides, receives the material at the upper inlet and guides it to the vibrating feeder fixed to the frame 4 at the lower outlet. Once activated, the vibrating feeder stably conveys the material from the feeding hopper 3 forward. Finally, the material passes through a magnetic collector installed at the outlet of the vibrating feeder. The magnetic collector adsorbs and removes magnetic impurities from the material. This achieves a more stable conveying process by independently designing the feeding hopper 3 and the vibrating feeder. The feeding hopper 3 stores the material, while the vibrating feeder conveys it. Only a small portion of the material weight is borne by the vibrating feeder, reducing safety hazards such as weld cracking and excessive noise. This results in convenient and quick operation, stable feeding, and high practicality.

[0026] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 5As shown, the bag-turning mechanism includes a flip plate 1, one end of which is hinged to the upper side of a frame 4. A first cylinder 2 is hinged to the frame 4, and the output end of the first cylinder 2 is hinged to the lower side of the flip plate 1. A hand valve 10 is fixedly connected to the frame 4, and the hand valve 10 is pneumatically connected to the first cylinder 2. When the bag-turning mechanism is working, bagged or boxed materials are first placed on the surface of the flip plate 1, which is hinged to the upper side of the frame 4. The operator controls the hand valve 10 fixed to the frame 4, and triggers the first cylinder 2 by utilizing the pneumatic connection between the hand valve 10 and the first cylinder 2. Since the output end of the first cylinder 2 is hinged to the lower side of the flip plate 1, when its cylinder rod extends, it will push the flip plate 1 to flip upward with the hinge point between the flip plate 1 and the frame 4 as the fulcrum, so that the material slides and is conveyed along the flip plate 1 under the action of gravity. After the material is conveyed, the hand valve 10 is operated in the opposite direction, the cylinder rod of the first cylinder 2 retracts, and the flip plate 1 is reset to the initial position, ready for the next bag-turning operation.

[0027] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 As shown, in some embodiments, baffles are fixedly connected to both sides of the flip plate 1. When carrying bagged or boxed materials and flipping and conveying them, the baffles fixedly connected to both sides of the flip plate 1 will form a physical limiting structure. When the material slides on the flip plate 1 as it flips, the baffles can prevent the material from shifting to the sides of the flip plate 1, reduce the material falling from the side of the flip plate 1 during the conveying process, and ensure that the material always slides along the middle path of the flip plate 1 to the feeding hopper 3, thereby improving the safety of the bag flipping operation and the accuracy of the material conveying.

[0028] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, the vibrating feeder includes a vibrating hopper 5 and an elastic support 6. Both the elastic support 6 and the vibrating hopper 5 are fixedly connected to the frame 4. The upper side of the elastic support 6 is fixedly connected to the lower side of the vibrating hopper 5. The elastic support 6 provides stable and elastic support for the vibrating hopper 5 because its two ends are fixedly connected to the frame 4 and the vibrating hopper 5 respectively.

[0029] A discharge trough is provided on one side of the vibrating hopper 5. A vibrating motor 7 is fixedly connected to the lower end of the vibrating hopper 5. The output end of the vibrating motor 7 is connected to the lower end of the vibrating hopper 5 for transmission. When the material falls from the feeding hopper 3 into the vibrating hopper 5, the vibrating motor 7 is started. The output end of the vibrating motor 7 transmits the vibration energy to the lower end of the vibrating hopper 5, so that the vibrating hopper 5 generates high-frequency low-amplitude vibration under the buffering effect of the elastic support 6. The vibrating hopper 5 conveys the internal material along the channel to the discharge trough on one side through vibration, so as to achieve stable and uniform feeding of the material. Moreover, since only the vibrating hopper 5 vibrates, the overall power consumption and noise of the device are reduced.

[0030] like Figure 1 , Figure 4 , Figure 5As shown, a second cylinder 9 is fixedly connected to the frame 4, and a material-pulling plate 8 is fixedly connected to the output end of the second cylinder 9. The material-pulling plate 8 is rotatably connected to the inside of the frame 4. When the vibrating hopper 5 in the vibrating feeding device conveys materials, the second cylinder 9 fixed on the frame 4 controls the switching frequency through a solenoid valve. Its output end drives the material-pulling plate 8 fixedly connected to it to move. The extension and retraction of the output end of the second cylinder 9 will drive the material-pulling plate 8 to flip back and forth at a certain angle around the rotation point in the vibrating hopper 5. During the flipping process, the material that may be clumped in the vibrating hopper 5 can be dispersed, and the material can be evenly distributed in the conveying channel, effectively reducing the phenomenon of material clumping and jamming, and ensuring the continuity of material conveying.

[0031] like Figure 1 , Figure 3 , Figure 5 As shown, the magnetic collecting device includes a strong magnetic rod 11, which is rotatably connected to one side of the frame 4 and located on one side of the discharge port of the vibrating hopper 5. During the process of the vibrating hopper 5 of the vibrating feeding device conveying material to the discharge port, because the strong magnetic rod 11 in the magnetic collecting device is rotatably connected to one side of the frame 4 and is located exactly at the discharge port of the vibrating hopper 5, the material will directly pass through the magnetic attraction area of ​​the strong magnetic rod 11 when it is discharged from the discharge port of the vibrating hopper 5. The strong magnetic rod 11 uses its own strong magnetism to adsorb magnetic impurities such as iron filings mixed in the material onto its surface, so that the pure material is separated from the magnetic impurities, thereby achieving the removal of impurities from the material. After the operation is completed, the strong magnetic rod 11 can be rotated for cleaning so that it can be used continuously in the future.

[0032] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: During use, the flipping mechanism is responsible for flipping and conveying bagged or boxed materials. After the flipping mechanism completes the material flipping, the material enters the feeding hopper 3 fixedly connected to the frame 4 along the preset path. The feeding hopper 3 has a hollow structure with openings on both sides. The upper inlet receives the material, and the lower outlet guides the material to the vibrating feeder fixed on the frame 4. After the vibrating feeder is started, it stably conveys the material from the feeding hopper 3 forward. Finally, the material passes through the magnetic collector installed at the discharge end of the vibrating feeder. The magnetic collector adsorbs and removes magnetic impurities in the material. Thus, by designing the feeding hopper 3 and the vibrating feeder independently, the feeding hopper 3 is responsible for storing the material, and the vibrating feeder is responsible for conveying the material. Only a small part of the material weight is borne by the vibrating feeder, making the conveying more stable and reducing the safety hazards of weld cracking and excessive noise. This achieves the purpose of convenient and fast use, stable feeding, and high practicality.

[0033] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various improvements and modifications without departing from the principle of this utility model, and these improvements and modifications should also be considered within the scope of protection of this utility model.
