Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of canned food processing, and in particular to a sealing device for canned meat processing. Background Technology

[0002] During the production of canned meat, after the cans are filled, sealing devices are used to seal them, ensuring that the food inside is isolated from the outside air, thereby extending the shelf life of the food and preventing bacteria and other contaminants from entering.

[0003] Currently, the sealing process for canned meat typically involves placing a batch of cans onto a conveyor belt and sealing them using a sealing machine. However, due to the lack of an effective positioning mechanism for the cans, the sealing machine itself vibrates during operation. This vibration is transmitted to the cans, causing them to shift, shake, or even tip over under the influence of continuous vibration. Once a can tip over, it disrupts the normal sealing process and reduces production efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0004] This utility model aims to at least partially solve one of the technical problems in the related art.

[0005] Therefore, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a meat canning and sealing device that can automatically position the can during the sealing process, enhance its stability, prevent the can from tipping over, and thus ensure the smooth operation of the sealing process.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model proposes a meat canning and sealing device, comprising a base, a conveyor belt, a lifting mechanism, two elastic positioning mechanisms, a sealing mechanism, and two guiding mechanisms.

The lifting mechanism is mounted on the support, and two racks are arranged opposite each other on the bottom surface of the lifting mechanism, each rack meshing with a gear. Two rotating shafts are rotatably mounted on the fixed plate, each shaft being connected to a corresponding gear. Movable plates are provided at the ends of the two rotating shafts. The two elastic positioning mechanisms are respectively mounted on their corresponding movable plates. The sealing mechanism is located on the bottom surface of the lifting mechanism. The two guiding mechanisms are respectively located on the two side walls of the base, and are situated above the conveyor belt.

[0007] The meat canning and sealing device of this invention can automatically position the can during the sealing process, enhance its stability, prevent the can from tipping over, and thus ensure the smooth operation of the sealing process.

[0019] The embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below, examples of which are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and intended to explain the present invention, and should not be construed as limiting the present invention. Rather, the embodiments of the present invention include all variations, modifications, and equivalents falling within the spirit and scope of the appended claims.

[0020] The meat canning and sealing device of this utility model is described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0021] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the meat canning and sealing device of this utility model embodiment may include a base 10, a conveyor belt 20, a lifting mechanism 30, two elastic positioning mechanisms 50, a sealing mechanism 60, and two guiding mechanisms 70. The conveyor belt 20 is disposed inside the base 10, and a support 11 is disposed on one side of the base 10. The support 11 extends above the conveyor belt 20, and a fixing plate 12 is disposed on the bottom surface of the support 11. The lifting mechanism 30 is disposed on the support 11.

[0022] It should be noted that a photoelectric sensor is installed on the base 10 to detect the position of the can. When the can is about to enter the sealing area, the photoelectric sensor will send a signal to the controller to control the lifting mechanism 30 to descend.

[0023] The bottom surface of the lifting mechanism 30 has two racks 41 facing each other, and the two racks 41 are respectively meshed with gears 42. Two rotating shafts 43 are rotatably mounted on the fixed plate 12, and the two rotating shafts 43 are respectively connected to the corresponding gears 42. The ends of the two rotating shafts 43 are respectively provided with movable plates 44. Two elastic positioning mechanisms 50 are respectively mounted on the corresponding movable plates 44. The sealing mechanism 60 is mounted on the bottom surface of the lifting mechanism 30. Two guide mechanisms 70 are respectively mounted on the two side walls of the base 10 and are located above the conveyor belt 20.

[0024] Specifically, in the meat canning production workshop, workers first place multiple cans to be sealed one by one on the conveyor belt 20, and then use two guiding mechanisms 70 to guide the cans to prevent them from shifting during the transportation process.

[0025] When the can is about to move below the sealing mechanism 60, the photoelectric sensor sends a signal to the controller, controlling the lifting mechanism 30 to descend, so that the sealing mechanism 60 contacts the top of the can, completing the sealing operation. During this process, the lifting mechanism 30 drives the two racks 41 to move, which in turn drives the two gears 42 and the two rotating shafts 43 to rotate, causing the two movable plates 44 to rotate inward at a certain angle, thereby driving the two elastic positioning mechanisms 50 to abut against the can, completing the positioning of the can and enhancing the stability of the can sealing process. After the sealing is completed, the lifting mechanism 30 rises, and at the same time the elastic positioning mechanisms 50 release the positioning of the can, and then wait for the next sealing operation.

[0026] The meat canning and sealing device of this utility model can automatically position the can during the sealing process, enhance its stability, prevent the can from tipping over, and thus ensure the smooth operation of the sealing operation.

[0027] In one embodiment of this utility model, such as Figure 1 As shown, the lifting mechanism 30 includes a first electric push rod 31 and a lifting plate 32. The first electric push rod 31 is disposed on the bottom surface of the bracket 11. The piston end of the first electric push rod 31 passes through the bracket 11 and is connected to the lifting plate 32. Two racks 41 are respectively connected to the lifting plate 32.

[0028] It should be noted that the first electric push rod 31 is controlled by a controller. By controlling the extension and retraction of the piston end of the first electric push rod 31, the lifting plate 32 can be moved up and down, which in turn drives the capping mechanism 60 to move up and down, thus completing the capping operation of the can.

[0029] In one embodiment of this utility model, such as Figure 2 As shown, the elastic positioning mechanism 50 includes a guide rod 51, a positioning post 52, a spring 53, and a limiting plate 54. The guide rod 51 passes through the movable plate 44 and is slidably connected to the movable plate 44. The positioning post 52 is connected to the bottom end of the guide rod 51. The spring 53 is disposed between the positioning post 52 and the movable plate 44 and is sleeved on the guide rod 51. The limiting plate 54 is connected to the top end of the guide rod 51.

[0030] It should be noted that when the angle of the movable plate 44 changes, it will drive the positioning pins 52 to move. The two positioning pins 52 abut against the outer wall of the can to position it and enhance its stability. During this process, the elasticity of the spring 53 is used to adapt to the size of the can and to adapt to the vibration during the can sealing process. The guide rod 51 provides guidance for the spring 53. The limiting plate 54 can limit the movement range of the guide rod 51 and prevent the guide rod 51 from sliding out of the movable plate 44 completely.

[0031] In one embodiment of this utility model, such as Figure 1 As shown, the capping mechanism 60 includes a drive component 61 and a roll sealer 62. The drive component 61 is disposed on the bottom surface of the lifting plate 32, and the roll sealer 62 is connected to the output end of the drive component 61.

[0032] It should be noted that the driving component 61 described in this embodiment can be a servo motor, and the sealing device 62 is equipped with sealing wheels. Under the action of the driving component, the sealing device 62 will rotate. These sealing wheels will roll along the edge of the can, simultaneously bending, curling and pressing the edge of the can lid and the opening of the can inward to form a continuous and tight seam, thus completing the sealing operation.

[0033] In one embodiment of this utility model, such as Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, the guide mechanism 70 includes a second electric push rod 71, a mounting groove 72, and a plurality of rollers 73. The second electric push rod 71 is disposed on the side wall of the base 10, the mounting groove 72 is connected to the piston end of the second electric push rod 71, and the plurality of rollers 73 are rotatably connected to the mounting groove 72 respectively.

[0034] It should be noted that the second electric push rod 71 is controlled by a controller. The mounting groove 72 is matched with the length of the conveyor belt 20. By controlling the extension and retraction of the piston end of the second electric push rod 71, the position of the mounting groove 72 can be adjusted so that the roller 73 lightly touches the side of the can. Multiple rollers 73 provide guidance for the cans on the conveyor belt 20 and prevent the cans from shifting.

[0035] In summary, the meat canning and sealing device of this utility model can automatically position the can during the sealing process, enhance its stability, prevent the can from tipping over, and thus ensure the smooth operation of the sealing operation.
