Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to a feeding device for a cooking machine, and more specifically, to a magnetic feeding device for a cooking machine. Background Technology

[0002] Traditional Chinese cooking relies on manual ingredient preparation and control of the cooking process. However, with improved living standards and technological advancements, automatic cooking machines have become increasingly widespread, found in homes, restaurants, and canteens. Current automatic cooking machines can perform various operations, such as adding ingredients, stir-frying, and washing the pan, essentially simulating manual cooking, although their structures are relatively complex. In particular, some automatic ingredient dispensing devices have the function of selecting different ingredient boxes to dispense corresponding ingredients and sauces according to cooking needs. In existing cooking machines, the ingredient boxes are mounted on the machine body via tracks, and grease can easily accumulate between these tracks, increasing the difficulty of cleaning.

[0003] Utility model patent CN206761505U discloses a solid material adding device for an automatic cooking machine, belonging to the field of intelligent kitchen equipment technology. Its structure includes an upper surface of the machine casing, a flipping device, and a conveying device. The flipping device includes a first motor, which is fixedly installed on the upper surface of the machine casing. The first motor is connected to one end of a feeding arm via a rotating shaft. The other end of the feeding arm is connected to a material box. An electromagnet is installed at the front end of the feeding arm, and a steel plate is fixed to the side wall of the corresponding material box, maintaining an appropriate distance between the electromagnet and the steel plate. The conveying device includes a conveying plate and a conveying power mechanism. The material box is placed on the conveying plate, which has wheels at its bottom. The conveying plate can slide relative to the upper surface of the machine casing, and a first magnet is provided at the bottom of the conveying plate. The conveying power mechanism includes a second motor, which is connected to a lead screw drive. A lead screw nut is rotatably installed on the lead screw, and a second magnet is installed at the top of the lead screw nut. The second magnet is configured correspondingly to the first magnet.

[0004] This utility model adopts a trackless design, which reduces the possibility of oil and dirt accumulation and makes cleaning easier. However, during the process of moving the conveyor plate, since there is a layer of outer wall of the machine casing between the second magnet and the first magnet, the first magnet will shift after a long period of use, causing the material box on the conveyor plate to be unable to be accurately aligned with the feeding arm. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this utility model is to address the shortcomings of the existing technology by providing a magnetic feeding device for a cooking machine that is simple in structure and not prone to deviation.

[0006] The technical solution of this utility model is implemented as follows: a magnetic feeding device for a cooking machine includes a machine box set on one side of the cooking machine, a guide strip at the upper end of the machine box, a sliding plate on the guide strip, and several material boxes placed on the sliding plate.

[0007] A first magnet is provided on one side of the bottom of the sliding plate, and the outer wall of one side of the first magnet is in close contact with the guide strip; a linear drive assembly parallel to the guide strip is provided inside the chassis, and a second magnet is provided on the linear drive assembly, with the central axis of the second magnet located between the central axis of the first magnet and the guide strip.

[0008] In the above-mentioned magnetic stir-fry machine feeding device, the bottom of the sliding plate is provided with several universal wheels.

[0009] In the above-mentioned magnetic feeding device for a stir-fry machine, the bottom of the sliding plate is provided with mounting grooves at both ends near the front and rear ends along the moving direction. The first magnet is set in the mounting groove, and the two first magnets are respectively the S pole and N pole facing downward.

[0010] In the aforementioned magnetic stir-fry machine feeding device, the linear drive assembly includes a linear slide rail located at the upper end of the machine housing, a sliding seat connected to the linear slide rail via a lead screw, and a servo motor connected to the lead screw at one end of the linear slide rail; the sliding seat is provided with a T-shaped bracket, and the second magnet is located at both ends of the T-shaped bracket with its magnetic poles cooperating with the first magnet.

[0011] In the aforementioned magnetic feeding device for a stir-fry machine, a flipping feeding component that cooperates with the feeding box is provided on the machine casing near the end of the guide bar on the side of the stir-fry machine.

[0012] In the above-mentioned magnetic feeding device for a cooking machine, the flipping feeding assembly includes a flipping motor mounted on the machine casing, a flipping bracket connected to the output shaft of the flipping motor, a third magnet mounted on the flipping bracket, and a magnetic suction plate that cooperates with the third magnet on the outer wall of the material box on the side near the cooking machine.

[0013] With the above-mentioned structure, the first magnet is limited on one side by the guide bar to prevent it from shifting towards the guide bar. At the same time, when the second magnet and the first magnet attract each other, the first magnet will be pulled towards the guide bar, so that the first magnet is in close contact with the side wall of the guide bar, preventing the first magnet from shifting to the other side, thus effectively ensuring that the sliding plate moves in a straight line.

[0022] See Figure 1-6 As shown, the present invention discloses a magnetic feeding device for a stir-fry machine, comprising a housing 1 disposed on one side of the stir-fry machine, a guide strip 2 disposed on the upper end of the housing 1, a sliding plate 3 disposed on the guide strip 2, and a plurality of material boxes 4 disposed on the sliding plate 3. A plurality of spacers are evenly distributed on the sliding plate, and adjacent spacers cooperate to form positioning grooves for placing the material boxes.

[0023] A first magnet 5 is provided on one side of the bottom of the sliding plate 3, and the outer wall of one side of the first magnet 5 is in close contact with the guide strip 2. A linear drive assembly 6 parallel to the guide strip 2 is provided inside the housing 1. A second magnet 7 is provided on the linear drive assembly 6, and the central axis of the second magnet 7 is located between the central axis of the first magnet 5 and the guide strip 2. The guide strip limits one side of the first magnet to prevent it from shifting towards the guide strip. At the same time, when the second magnet and the first magnet attract each other, the first magnet will be pulled towards the guide strip, so that the first magnet is in close contact with the side wall of the guide strip, preventing the first magnet from shifting to the other side, which can effectively ensure that the sliding plate moves in a straight line.

[0024] In this embodiment, the bottom of the sliding plate 3 is provided with several casters 8. The casters reduce the friction between the bottom of the sliding plate and the chassis, facilitating the movement of the sliding plate.

[0025] In this embodiment, preferably, the bottom of the sliding plate 3 has mounting grooves 9 at its front and rear ends along the moving direction. The first magnet 5 is disposed in the mounting groove 9, with the S pole and N pole of the two first magnets 5 facing downwards respectively. The S pole and N pole of the two first magnets 5 are staggered, which ensures that the front and rear direction of the sliding plate is correct when the sliding plate is placed on the guide strip so that the first magnet and the second magnet cooperate, and avoids reverse placement.

[0026] More preferably, the linear drive assembly 6 includes a linear slide rail 6a disposed at the upper end of the housing 1, a sliding seat 6c connected to the linear slide rail 6a via a lead screw 6b, and a servo motor 6d connected to the lead screw 6b at one end of the linear slide rail 6a. A T-shaped bracket 6e is provided on the sliding seat 6c, and the second magnet 7 is disposed at both ends of the T-shaped bracket 6e with its magnetic poles engaging with the first magnet 5. A corresponding position sensor is provided on the linear slide rail to control the initial position of the sliding seat, ensuring that the first magnet and the second magnet are aligned and engaged when the sliding plate is initially placed on the guide bar. Alternatively, the lead screw and servo motor can also be common reciprocating drive mechanisms such as cylinders or electric actuators.

[0027] In this embodiment, preferably, a flipping and feeding assembly 10 that cooperates with the material box 4 is provided on the casing 1 near the end of the guide bar 2 on the side close to the wok. When the material box is conveyed to the end of the guide bar and is opposite to the wok of the wok, the flipping and feeding assembly flips the material box above the wok and pours the ingredients into the wok. The flipping and feeding assembly can adopt various flipping mechanisms commonly found in woks on the market, such as robotic arms.

[0028] More preferably, the flipping feeding assembly 10 includes a flipping motor 10a mounted on the housing 1, a flipping bracket 10b connected to the output shaft of the flipping motor 10a, a third magnet 10c mounted on the flipping bracket 10b, and a magnetic suction plate 10d cooperating with the third magnet 10c mounted on the outer wall of the material box 4 near the cooking machine. When the material box is conveyed to the end of the guide bar and is opposite to the wok position of the cooking machine, the third magnet attracts the magnetic suction plate on the material box, and then the flipping motor flips the material box to pour it out. After the material box is poured out, it is placed back on the moving plate, and the magnetic suction plate is removed from the third magnet by moving the moving plate.

[0029] The magnetic attraction method is simpler and less expensive than that of a robotic arm; it is also more convenient to use than gripper gripping, and can reduce the gap between two adjacent material boxes, making the structure more compact.

[0030] During operation, the sliding plate is placed on the guide bar to align the first magnet with the second magnet. The food container is then placed on the sliding plate, and the servo motor is started to begin conveying. When the food container is conveyed to the end of the guide bar and is aligned with the wok of the cooking machine, the third magnet attracts the magnetic plate on the food container. The container is then flipped over by the flipping motor to empty the food. After emptying, the food container is placed back on the moving plate. The moving plate is then moved to remove the magnetic plate from the third magnet, and the next food container is moved to the third magnet to wait for emptying.

[0031] The above-described embodiments are preferred embodiments of the present utility model and are only used to facilitate the illustration of the present utility model. They are not intended to limit the present utility model in any way. Any person skilled in the art who makes partial modifications or alterations to the technical content disclosed in the present utility model without departing from the scope of the technical features of the present utility model shall still fall within the scope of the technical features of the present utility model.
