Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of food testing technology, and in particular to a food specific volume and bulkiness measuring instrument. Background Technology

[0002] Traditional methods for measuring the volume of steamed buns include the direct method and the rapeseed displacement method. The direct method involves placing the bun in a container of known volume, measuring the total volume of the bun and water, and then subtracting the volume of water alone to obtain the bun's volume. The rapeseed displacement method uses the substitution between the bun and rapeseed to determine the bun's volume, and then uses a corresponding formula to calculate the specific volume. Both methods can calculate the specific volume of a steamed bun, but the first method has a large error and low accuracy; the second method is more accurate but more cumbersome and time-consuming.

[0003] In addition, the traditional method of measuring the volume of steamed buns cannot simultaneously measure the fluffiness of the buns.

[0027] Example

[0028] like Figure 1 , 2 As shown in Figures 3, 4, and 5, the food specific volume and fluffiness measuring instrument of this embodiment includes a chassis 1, a workbench 2, a transparent detection tray 3, a transfer mechanism 4, a halving mechanism 5, and a scanning system. The workbench 2 is horizontally arranged inside the chassis 1, dividing the chassis 1 into an upper cavity and a lower cavity. A detection hole is provided in the middle of the workbench 2, and the detection tray 3 is rotatably assembled at the detection hole. A drive mechanism 6 connected to and driving the detection tray 3 to rotate is provided inside the chassis 1. A door 111 that can be opened or closed is provided on one side of the upper cavity. A weighing station and a halving station are provided on the workbench 2. A weighing device 7 is provided at the weighing station. The transfer mechanism 4 is used to obtain and transfer food between the weighing station, the halving station, and the detection tray 3. The halving mechanism 5 is used to cut the food placed at the halving station. The scanning system is provided in the chassis 1 and is used to scan the food on the detection tray 3 from above and below.

[0029] The process of using the food specific volume and bulkiness measuring instrument in this embodiment is as follows:

[0030] Taking bread (or steamed buns) as an example, open door 111, place the bread on weighing device 7 for weighing, and simultaneously close door 111. After weighing, control the transfer mechanism 4 to pick up the bread from weighing device 7 and transfer it to the center of detection plate 3. Then, use the scanning system to scan the bread on detection plate 3 from both upper and lower perspectives. While scanning, use the drive mechanism 6 to drive detection plate 3 to rotate, thus enabling a 360° scan of the bread. The scanned image information is summarized and 3D modeled to obtain the size data of the tested object and calculate its volume. Then, combined with the weight data of the tested object, the volumetric density information is calculated. Simultaneously, use transfer mechanism 4 to transfer the bread to the halving station, and use halving mechanism 5 to cut the bread in half. Afterward, use transfer mechanism 4 to transfer one half of the bread back to detection plate 3, use the scanning system to scan the cut surface of the bread, and then compare it with the database to obtain the bread's fluffiness. The overall structure is reasonably designed, enabling efficient and comprehensive analysis of food volume, weight, and fluffiness, meeting the testing and storage laboratory requirements of the food processing industry, such as steamed buns and pastries.

[0031] In a preferred embodiment, the detection hole is a circular hole, and a bearing is installed inside the detection hole. The lower part of the detection disk 3 is provided with an annular connecting part that is coaxially connected to the inner ring of the bearing. The annular connecting part is connected to the drive mechanism 6.

[0032] In the above implementation scheme, the lower part of the detection disk 3 is assembled with the bearing in the detection hole through the annular connecting part, which enables the detection disk 3 to rotate well, and the specific volume value of the bread is obtained by 360° scanning and conventional volume and weight calculation.

[0033] In a preferred embodiment, the drive mechanism 6 includes a first motor 61 and a gear 62. The inner wall of the annular connecting part is coaxially provided with a gear ring. The first motor 61 is mounted on the lower end of the worktable 2, and the gear 62 is mounted on the shaft of the first motor 61 and meshes with the gear ring.

[0034] In the above implementation scheme, the first motor 61 drives the gear 62 to rotate, thereby driving the gear ring and the annular connecting part connected to the gear ring to rotate, thus realizing the stable rotation of the detection disk 3. The structure is compact and stable.

[0035] In this embodiment, the drive mechanism 6 can also be provided with a gear ring on the lower outer wall of the annular connecting part, and the first motor 61 drives the gear 62 to rotate, thereby causing the gear ring, the annular connecting part and the detection disk 3 to rotate.

[0036] In a preferred embodiment, the scanning system includes an upper scanning camera 91 and a lower scanning camera 92. The upper scanning camera 91 is mounted on one side of the upper cavity and located diagonally above one side of the detection disk 3. The lower scanning camera 92 is mounted on one side of the lower cavity and located diagonally below one side of the detection disk 3. A host is provided on the outside of the chassis 1. The upper scanning camera 91 and the lower scanning camera 92 are respectively connected to the host.

[0037] In the above implementation scheme, the upper scanning camera 91 and the lower scanning camera 92 are conventional cameras in the vision system. During the rotation of the detection disk 3, the upper scanning camera 91 and the lower scanning camera 92 jointly perform a 360° scan of the bread in the upper center of the detection disk 3. The scanned data is fed back to the host. At the same time, the data from the weighing device 7 (electronic weighing device) is also fed back to the host. The host performs accurate 3D modeling based on the multi-angle photos taken by the scan, and calculates the specific volume information of the tested object based on the obtained relevant volume information and the weight of the tested object.

[0038] In this embodiment, the host is equipped with a display screen (represented by A in the figure), which is installed on the side wall surface of the chassis 1.

[0039] In this embodiment, there are two sets of upper scanning cameras 91 and two sets of lower scanning cameras 92. The lens of the upper scanning camera 91 is tilted downward toward the upper surface of the center of the detection disk 3, and the lens of the lower scanning camera 92 is tilted upward toward the lower surface of the center of the detection disk 3.

[0040] In a preferred embodiment, the transplanting mechanism 4 includes a first upright frame 41, a first crossbeam 42, a first lateral movement module 43, a first lifting module 44, a first connecting frame 45, and a gripper assembly 46. The first upright frame 41 is rotatably mounted on the upper end of the workbench 2 and is connected to the rotary drive assembly 47. One end of the first crossbeam 42 is fixedly connected to the first upright frame 41, and the other end extends horizontally above the detection plate 3. The first lateral movement module 43 is mounted on one side of the first crossbeam 42. The first lifting module 44... Module 44 is connected to the first transverse module 43. One end of the first connecting frame 45 is connected to the first lifting module 44. The gripper assembly 46 is mounted on the other end of the first connecting frame 45. The first transverse module 43 is used to drive the first lifting module 44, the first connecting frame 45, and the gripper assembly 46 to move horizontally along the length of the first crossbeam 42. The first lifting module 44 is used to drive the first connecting frame 45 and the gripper assembly 46 to move up and down. The gripper assembly 46 is used to grip or release food.

[0041] In the above implementation scheme, the first upright frame 41 is mounted on the upper end of the workbench 2 at the outer edge of the detection plate 3. The first horizontal moving module 43 drives the first lifting module 44 to move horizontally. The first lifting module 44 drives the first connecting frame 45 to rise and fall. In conjunction with the rotary drive component 47, the first upright frame 41 is driven to rotate. This allows the gripper assembly 46 to move above the weighing device 7, the cutting station, and the center of the detection plate 3, respectively. With the lifting and lowering of the first lifting module 44 and the clamping and releasing of the gripper assembly 46, the gripper assembly 46 can smoothly pick up the bread from the weighing device 7 and transfer it to the center of the detection plate 3, or to the cutting station, or from the cutting station to the center of the detection plate 3. The acquisition and transfer of bread is very flexible.

[0042] In this embodiment, the first transverse module 43 can be a compatible electric linear module, and the first lifting module 44 can also be a compatible electric linear module. The gripper assembly 46 is a gripper cylinder, with a gripping plate connected to each of the two grippers of the gripper cylinder. The opening and closing of the two gripping plates can grip or release the bread. The first transverse module 43, the first lifting module 44, and the gripper assembly 46 are all connected to the host computer, which enables intelligent control.

[0043] In this embodiment, the transplanting mechanism 4 can also be replaced by a robotic arm, which can be equipped with a conventional clamping device at the end of the robotic arm.

[0044] In a preferred embodiment, the rotary drive assembly 47 includes a second motor 471, two synchronous pulleys 472, and a synchronous belt 473. The lower end of the first stand 41 is provided with a rotating shaft that runs vertically through the worktable 2 and is rotatably assembled therewith. The second motor 471 is mounted on the lower end of the worktable 2. The two synchronous pulleys 472 are coaxially mounted on the shaft and the shaft of the second motor 471, respectively. The synchronous belt 473 surrounds the two synchronous pulleys 472.

[0045] In the above implementation scheme, the second motor 471 drives the rotating shaft at the lower end of the first upright 41 to rotate through the synchronous pulley 472 and the synchronous belt 473, so that the first upright 41 can rotate in the horizontal plane relative to the workbench 2. This allows the gripper assembly 46 in the transplanting mechanism 4 to move to any position on the upper surface of the detection plate 3, the cutting station, and the weighing device 7, which is very flexible.

[0046] In this embodiment, the rotation drive assembly 47 can also adopt a transmission method of motor + two transmission gears. The motor drives one transmission gear to rotate, which in turn drives another transmission gear that meshes with it (this transmission gear is mounted on the rotating shaft at the lower end of the first stand 41) to rotate, thereby realizing the free rotation of the first stand 41.

[0047] In this embodiment, the halving station is equipped with a limiting ring 8, and the halving station is equipped with a semi-circular discharge port (pointed to as c in the figure) that penetrates half of the inner area of ​​the limiting ring 8. The design of the limiting ring 8 allows the bread to be placed stably inside. Due to the restriction of the limiting ring 8, the bread will not deviate. Furthermore, the bottom half of the limiting ring 8 is designed as a semi-circular discharge port. After halving, part of the bread will fall into the lower cavity through the discharge port under the action of gravity, leaving half as a sample for testing the fluffiness.

[0048] In this embodiment, a receiving box 9 is provided in the lower cavity, located below the material drop outlet. A discharge outlet is provided on one side of the lower cavity, and a cover plate 911 connected to the side end of the receiving box 9 is provided in the discharge outlet. The receiving box 9 can collect half-loaf of bread that falls through the material drop outlet. A handle is provided on the outer surface of the cover plate 911, allowing the cover plate 911 and the receiving box 9 to be pulled out or pushed in through the discharge outlet.

[0049] In a preferred embodiment, the slicing mechanism 5 includes a second upright 51, a second crossbeam 52, a second lifting module 53, a second lateral movement module 54, and a cutter 55. The second upright 51 is mounted on the upper end of the workbench 2. The second lifting module 53 is mounted on the side of the second upright 51. The second crossbeam 52 is horizontally arranged, with one end connected to the second lifting module 53. The second lateral movement module 54 is mounted on one side of the second crossbeam 52. The cutter 55 is horizontally arranged, with one end connected to the second lateral movement module 54 and the other end extending toward the limiting ring 8 and passing through the vertical plane where the center line of the limiting ring 8 is located. The limiting ring 8 has notches (b in the figure) on opposite sides that are adapted to the cutter 55. The second lifting module 53 is used to drive the second lateral movement module 54 and the cutter 55 to move up and down. The second lateral movement module 54 is used to drive the cutter 55 to move horizontally.

[0050] In the above implementation scheme, the second lifting module 53 drives the second lateral moving module 54 to rise and fall, causing the cutter 55 to move vertically closer to or further away from the worktable 2. Combined with the horizontal movement of the second lateral moving module 54, the cutter 55 can move above the halving station. Driven by the second lifting module 53, the cutter 55 can move downwards until it contacts the surface of the worktable 2, splitting the bread in half at the halving station. More specifically, when the cutter 55 is above the limiting ring 8, with both ends positioned above the notches on opposite sides of the limiting ring 8, during its subsequent downward movement, the cutter 55 can move until its two ends are embedded in the notches on opposite sides of the limiting ring 8, thereby halving the bread within the limiting ring 8, resulting in relatively smooth operation.

[0051] In this embodiment, the second lifting module 53 and the second lateral movement module 54 can both be commercially available electric linear modules of compatible models, and are respectively connected to the host to achieve intelligent control and operation.

[0052] In this embodiment, the weighing station and the halving station are located near the door 111. This facilitates opening the door 111 and taking / placing bread at the weighing station and the halving station.
