[0028] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, in this embodiment, the can filling device includes: a filling conveyor 10, a can-entry conveyor 20, a magnetic structure 30, and multiple filling components 40. The filling conveyor 10 has an inlet and an outlet, and includes a base 11, a rotating disk 12, and an arc-shaped limiting barrier 13. The rotating disk 12 is rotatably disposed above the base 11. The arc-shaped limiting barrier 13 is disposed on the base 11 and surrounds the outer periphery of the rotating disk 12. The inlet and outlet are located at the openings of the arc-shaped limiting barrier 13. Multiple receiving notches 121 are spaced apart on the outer periphery of the rotating disk 12 for accommodating cans. The can-entry conveyor 20 is connected to the inlet. The magnetic structure 30 is disposed on the base 11 and located at the inlet. The magnetic structure 30 is located below the rotating disk 12, and the maximum distance between the magnetic structure 30 and the rotation axis of the rotating disk 12 is less than the minimum radius of the rotating disk 12. Multiple filling components 40 are spaced apart above the filling conveyor section 10, and the multiple filling components 40 are used to fill materials into the tank.
[0029] Using the technical solution of this embodiment, the filling conveyor 10 has an inlet and an outlet, and the can-entering conveyor 20 is connected to the inlet. The filling conveyor 10 includes a base 11, a rotating disk 12, and an arc-shaped limiting rail 13. The arc-shaped limiting rail 13 is located on the outer periphery of the rotating disk 12 and above the base 11, and the rotating disk 12 is rotatably mounted on the base 11. The rotating disk 12 is provided with a receiving notch 121. The can body can enter into the receiving notch 121. A magnetic suction structure 30 is provided on the base 11 and located at the inlet, and the magnetic suction structure 30 is located below the rotating disk 12. A plurality of filling components 40 are spaced apart above the filling conveyor 10, and the filling components 40 are used to fill materials into the can body. With the above-described configuration, the can enters the inlet from the can feeding conveyor 20. At this point, the magnetic attraction structure 30 can attract the can, allowing it to quickly enter the receiving opening 121. The magnetic attraction structure 30 exerts the greatest attraction on the can closest to it, ensuring that the can closest to the magnetic attraction structure 30 experiences the greatest magnetic force, thus enabling it to quickly enter the receiving opening 121. This also ensures that only one can enter the receiving opening 121 at a time, preventing multiple cans from simultaneously crowding into it and thus preventing can jamming. Therefore, the technical solution of this embodiment effectively solves the problem of can jamming when cans enter the spiral metering machine in related technologies.
[0030] It should be noted that the maximum distance between the magnetic attraction structure 30 and the rotation axis of the rotating disk 12 is less than the minimum radius of the rotating disk 12, meaning that the magnetic attraction structure 30 is located inside the projection of the rotating disk 12 on the horizontal plane.
[0031] Of course, the magnetic structure 30 is also located inside the circle defined by the multiple receiving notches 121.
[0032] like Figure 1 , Figure 5 as well as Figure 6 As shown, in this embodiment, the magnetic attraction structure 30 includes an arc-shaped mounting frame 31 and multiple magnetic components 32. The arc-shaped mounting frame 31 has multiple mounting slots 311, and the multiple magnetic components 32 are installed in some or all of the mounting slots 311. The flexible configuration of the magnetic components 32 allows for adjustment of the magnetic force and distribution according to actual production needs, thereby enhancing the applicability and flexibility of the magnetic attraction structure 30. Furthermore, this design ensures stable operation of the tank at the tank inlet turntable while reducing damage to the tank.
[0033] It should be noted that in this embodiment, there are three mounting slots 311, and one magnetic component 32 is installed in each mounting slot 311. Of course, magnetic components 32 can also be installed in two or one of the three mounting slots 311, or a different number of magnetic components 32 can be installed in each mounting slot 311.
[0034] In other embodiments, by installing magnetic components 32 of different strengths in the mounting groove 311, the adsorption force can be precisely controlled to avoid excessive adsorption of the tank and thus affect normal circulation.
[0035] like Figure 1 , Figure 5 as well as Figure 6 As shown, in this embodiment, the magnetic suction structure 30 also includes a connecting frame 33, which connects the arc-shaped mounting frame 31 and the base 11. The connecting frame 33, through its supporting and reinforcing function, ensures the structural integrity of the magnetic suction structure 30 and the effective transmission of magnetic force. That is, the connection frame 33 enhances the overall stability of the magnetic suction structure 30. The can filling device also includes a partition structure 50, which is located at the center of the can-feeding conveyor section 20 and extends along the conveying direction of the can-feeding conveyor section 20. The partition structure 50 enables multiple cans to be simultaneously accommodated in different openings. Specifically, in this embodiment, the partition structure 50 divides the can-feeding conveyor section 20 into two channels, thereby improving filling efficiency.
[0036] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, in this embodiment, the can filling device further includes a can outlet conveying section 60, which is connected to the outlet and spaced apart from the can inlet conveying section 20. The can outlet conveying section 60 effectively transports the filled cans to other areas. The separating structure 50 includes a connecting rod 51 and a dividing block 52. The dividing block 52 is located on the side of the connecting rod 51 facing the filling conveying section 10. In the conveying direction of the can inlet conveying section 20, there is a gap between the dividing block 52 and the rotating disk 12. The reasonable distance between the dividing block 52 and the rotating disk 12 ensures a smooth transition of the cans and avoids jamming and collisions.
[0037] Specifically, the directional block 52, through its structural design, guides the tank to accurately enter the receiving notch 121, while restricting its lateral movement to prevent jamming.
[0038] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, in this embodiment, the width of the guide block 52 gradually increases in the direction from the can feeding conveyor 20 to the filling conveyor 10. The gradual width design of the guide block 52 adapts to the process of the can entering and positioning, ensuring a smooth transition of the can. The increase in the width of the guide block 52 provides a larger guiding area, which helps the can enter the receiving notch 121 more stably. This reduces the jamming and deviation of the can during the can feeding process, improves production efficiency and the accuracy of can positioning, and avoids can compression.
[0039] like Figures 1 to 5As shown, in this embodiment, the can filling device further includes multiple weighing elements 70. The base 11 is provided with multiple mounting holes 111, which are spaced apart circumferentially along the rotating disk 12. The weighing elements 70 are disposed within the mounting holes 111, with each weighing element 70 corresponding to one of the mounting holes 111. The cooperation between the weighing elements 70 and the rotating disk 12 enables precise weighing of the can, ensuring consistent filling volume.
[0040] Specifically, the weighing device 70 collects weight information through its contact with the bottom of the tank, providing a basis for subsequent filling volume control and rejection of defective products.
[0041] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, in this embodiment, the weighing component 70 includes a weighing pan 71, which is disposed within the mounting hole 111. In the conveying direction of the filling conveyor 10, the height of the weighing pan 71 upstream of the filling conveyor 10 is lower than the height of the weighing pan 71 downstream of the filling conveyor 10. The inclined design of the weighing pan 71 utilizes the component of gravity to solve the problem of the tank getting stuck at the gap between the weighing platform and the scale body.
[0042] Specifically, when the tank passes over the inclined weighing pan 71, the component of gravity makes it easier for it to cross the gap, avoiding jamming and thus improving the efficiency of the tank in the weighing process and reducing the equipment wear rate.
[0043] It should be noted that the upstream refers to the area the tank passes through first during operation, while the downstream refers to the area the tank passes through last during operation. The relative positions of upstream and downstream are explained.
[0044] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, in this embodiment, the angle between the plane containing the weighing pan 71 and the horizontal plane is greater than 0° and less than or equal to 3°. This angle setting ensures smooth flow of the tank without affecting weighing accuracy.
[0045] Specifically, in this embodiment, the angle between the plane where the weighing pan 71 is located and the horizontal plane is 2°. In other embodiments, the angle can be 0.5°, 1°, 1.5°, 2.5° or other angles.
[0046] The technical solution of this embodiment is as follows: The can first enters the filling conveyor 10 through the can inlet conveyor 20. The magnetic attraction structure 30 attracts the can at the inlet, ensuring that the can stably enters the receiving gap 121. Then, driven by the rotating disk 12, the can passes through the weighing device 70 for precise weighing. At this time, the tilting design of the weighing disk 71 helps the can smoothly cross the gap and avoid jamming. Finally, the can is filled by the filling device 40 and output through the can outlet conveyor 60.
[0047] According to another aspect of this application, a milk powder production line is provided. This embodiment of the milk powder production line includes a can filling device, which is the aforementioned can filling device. The milk powder production line integrates the can filling device, realizing fully automated control from can entry, filling to can exit. The can filling device, through the synergistic effect of the magnetic suction structure 30, the partition structure 50, and the weighing component 70, ensures stable flow and accurate filling of the cans during the production process. The above-mentioned setup effectively improves the production efficiency of the milk powder production line and reduces equipment failure rate and maintenance costs.
[0048] In the description of this utility model, it should be understood that "multiple" means a quantity of two or more. Directional terms such as "front, back, up, down, left, right," "horizontal, vertical, perpendicular, horizontal," and "top, bottom" indicate directions or positional relationships based on the directions or positional relationships shown in the accompanying drawings. These terms are used solely for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description. Unless otherwise stated, these directional terms do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of this utility model. The directional terms "inner" and "outer" refer to the inner or outer contours relative to the outline of each component itself.
[0049] For ease of description, spatial relative terms such as "above," "on top of," "on the upper surface of," "above," etc., are used herein to describe the spatial positional relationship of a device or feature as shown in the figures to other devices or features. It should be understood that spatial relative terms are intended to encompass different orientations in use or operation beyond the orientation of the device as described in the figures. For example, if the device in the figures were inverted, a device described as "above" or "on top of" other devices or structures would subsequently be positioned as "below" or "under" other devices or structures. Thus, the exemplary term "above" can include both "above" and "below." The device may also be positioned in other different ways (rotated 90 degrees or in other orientations), and the spatial relative descriptions used herein will be interpreted accordingly.
[0050] Furthermore, it should be noted that the use of terms such as "first" and "second" to define components is merely for the purpose of distinguishing the corresponding components. Unless otherwise stated, the above terms have no special meaning and therefore cannot be construed as limiting the scope of protection of this utility model.
[0051] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model and is not intended to limit the utility model. Various modifications and variations can be made to this utility model by those skilled in the art. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
