Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to a meatball production equipment, and more particularly to a meatball quantitative device. Background Technology

[0002] In food processing plants, the production process of meatballs mainly includes steps such as mincing meat, beating, quantitative extrusion and initial shaping, and frying and shaping. The quantitative extrusion and initial shaping mechanism extrudes the minced meat into a specific shape. In existing production equipment, the weight of the meatballs is primarily controlled by the extrusion volume of the quantitative extrusion and initial shaping equipment. However, the extrusion volume is easily affected by the viscosity or fiber fineness of the minced meat. For example, the weight of minced meat with long fibers or high viscosity is difficult to control. This is insufficient for high-end products or applications requiring gram-level precision (such as hot pot meatballs). Therefore, existing technologies suffer from poor quantitative accuracy. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide a quantitative device for meatballs. This invention effectively improves the accuracy of quantitative control.

[0004] The technical solution of this utility model: a quantitative device for meatballs, including a frame, a hopper on the frame, a material extrusion and initial forming mechanism below the hopper, a turntable below the material extrusion and initial forming mechanism, and a set of circularly distributed quantitative electronic scales on the turntable. The trays of the quantitative electronic scales pass sequentially through the discharge port of the material extrusion and initial forming mechanism as the turntable rotates. The quantitative electronic scales are rotatably connected to a flipping mechanism fixed on the turntable. Below the turntable, there are also a qualified product conveyor belt and a non-qualified product conveyor belt arranged sequentially.

[0005] In the aforementioned meatball measuring device, the measuring electronic scale includes an electronic scale body, and the end of the electronic scale body is provided with a detachable tray.

[0006] In the aforementioned meatball dispensing device, the flipping mechanism includes a bearing fixed on a turntable, a rotating shaft inside the bearing, the outer end of the rotating shaft being connected to a quantitative electronic scale, and a rotating gear fixedly connected to the inner end of the rotating shaft; it also includes a drive cylinder fixed on the turntable, and the output end of the drive cylinder is provided with a toothed plate that meshes with the rotating gear.

[0007] In the aforementioned meatball dispensing device, an upper positioning block is provided on one side of the rotating shaft, and two lower limit blocks are provided on the turntable located on both sides of the rotating shaft.

[0008] Compared with existing technologies, this utility model consists of a frame, a hopper, an extrusion and initial forming mechanism, a turntable, a quantitative electronic scale, a tilting mechanism, a qualified product conveyor belt, and a non-qualified product conveyor belt. The extrusion and initial forming mechanism performs the first quantitative measurement, and the quantitative electronic scale performs the second quantitative inspection. The two work together to remove substandard products, thus ensuring the finished product's weight meets the standard and improving the quantitative control accuracy. In summary, this utility model effectively improves the quantitative control accuracy. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation

[0011] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments, but this should not be construed as limiting the present invention.

[0012] Example. A meatball dispensing device, configured as follows: Figure 1-3 As shown, the machine includes a frame 1, a hopper 2 on the frame 1, an extrusion and initial forming mechanism 3 below the hopper 2, a turntable 4 below the extrusion and initial forming mechanism 3, and a set of circularly distributed quantitative electronic scales 5 on the turntable 4. The material trays of the quantitative electronic scales 5 pass through the discharge port of the extrusion and initial forming mechanism 3 in sequence as the machine rotates. The quantitative electronic scales 5 are rotatably connected to a flipping mechanism 6 fixed on the turntable 4. Below the turntable 4, there are also a qualified product conveyor belt 7 and a non-qualified product conveyor belt 8 in sequence.

[0013] The quantitative electronic scale 5 includes an electronic scale body 51, and the end of the electronic scale body 51 is provided with a detachable tray 52.

[0014] The flipping mechanism 6 includes a seated bearing 61 fixed on the turntable 4, a rotating shaft 62 inside the seated bearing 61, the outer end of the rotating shaft 62 being connected to the quantitative electronic scale 5, and a rotating gear 63 fixedly connected to the inner end of the rotating shaft 62; it also includes a drive cylinder 64 fixed on the turntable 4, and the output end of the drive cylinder 64 is provided with a toothed plate 65 that meshes with the rotating gear 63.

[0015] The rotating shaft 62 is provided with an upper positioning block 66 on one side, and the turntable 4 is provided with two lower limit blocks 67 located on both sides of the rotating shaft 62.

[0016] The turntable has a rotating shaft and a drive motor at its center, which are fixed to the frame.

[0017] The extrusion initial forming mechanism is equipped with position signal receivers at the discharge port, the qualified product conveyor belt, and the end of the unqualified product conveyor belt; each quantitative electronic scale is equipped with a position signal transmitter. Through the signal coordination between the position signal receivers and the position signal transmitters, it can be ensured that the corresponding quantitative electronic scale reaches the corresponding position.

[0018] It also includes a controller, which is electrically or wirelessly connected to the aforementioned position signal receiver, position signal transmitter, drive motor, drive cylinder, extrusion initial forming mechanism, and other components to control the positioning and extrusion of each stage. This technology can be implemented using conventional control methods in the field.

[0019] The quantitative electronic scale uses a commonly available electronic weighing key.

[0020] Preferably, the tray is connected to the main body of the electronic scale by screws.

[0021] The extrusion initial forming mechanism can use existing conventional meatball quantitative extrusion equipment. The outlet of the meatball quantitative extrusion equipment is equipped with an outlet mold of a corresponding shape to extrude the minced meat into the corresponding size and similar shape.

[0022] The production process of this utility model is as follows: The stirred minced meat is conveyed through a hopper to the extrusion and initial forming mechanism. The extrusion and initial forming mechanism extrudes the minced meat into a set shape and size according to the set extrusion amount, completing the initial forming. The initially formed minced meat falls onto the tray of a quantitative electronic scale. After a second weighing by the quantitative electronic scale, the minced meat that meets the weight requirements is flipped by a flipping mechanism when it reaches the qualified product conveyor belt as the turntable rotates, transferring the corresponding minced meat to the qualified product conveyor belt. The minced meat that does not meet the weight requirements is flipped by a flipping mechanism when it reaches the unqualified product conveyor belt as the turntable rotates, transferring the corresponding minced meat to the unqualified product conveyor belt.

[0023] The flipping process of the mechanism is as follows: The extension of the drive cylinder causes the toothed plate to extend, engaging with the rotating gear to rotate it 180 degrees. The upper positioning block then engages with the corresponding lower limit block, causing the quantitative electronic scale to flip 180 degrees, and the minced meat falls out. Subsequently, the drive cylinder retracts and resets, causing the toothed plate to return to its original position. This, in turn, causes the rotating gear to reverse 180 degrees, and the upper positioning block engages with the lower limit block at its initial position, resetting the quantitative electronic scale. The 180-degree rotation is controlled by adjusting the movement distance of the toothed plate and the engagement between the positioning and limit blocks.

[0024] To ensure the minced meat falls smoothly, the tray is coated with a release agent or a food-safe non-stick coating.
