They are commonly found in everyday household use, takeout packaging, and disposable catering scenarios. Their key features are portability and good sealing. Different materials determine their microwaveability, temperature resistance range, and other usage attributes. Injection molding of plastic lunch boxes is the core manufacturing process that involves injecting molten plastic raw materials into a mold cavity, cooling and solidifying them to obtain the finished lunch box. It is characterized by high efficiency, low cost, and the ability to mass-produce complex-shaped products. During the injection molding process of plastic lunch boxes, feeding equipment is often required to input the raw materials into the equipment for processing.
[0003] In the prior art, Chinese patent CN222223314U discloses a feeding mechanism for injection molding of plastic lunch boxes, including a base, a hopper and a feeding pipe fixed at the upper end of the base, a discharge port on the side wall of the hopper, an inlet on the side wall near the lower end of the feeding pipe connected to the discharge port, an outlet on the side wall near the upper end of the feeding pipe, a lifting mechanism inside the feeding pipe, a feeding hopper below the outlet, an inlet on the upper end of the feeding hopper connected to the outlet, an outlet at the lower end of the feeding hopper, and a screening mechanism inside the feeding hopper.
[0004] However, the injection molding feeding mechanism provided in the above technical solution still has many shortcomings in actual use. For example, there is no material distribution mechanism at the outlet of the injection molding feeding mechanism, which makes it easy for the material to accumulate when it is poured in, and it cannot be poured into the processing equipment evenly, affecting the quality of feeding and thus resulting in poor practicality. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of this section is to outline some aspects of embodiments of the present invention and to briefly describe some preferred embodiments. Simplifications or omissions may be made in this section, as well as in the abstract and title of this application, to avoid obscuring the purpose of these documents; however, such simplifications or omissions should not be construed as limiting the scope of the present invention.
[0006] To address the problem mentioned in the background art that the injection molding feeding mechanism lacks a material distribution mechanism at the outlet, causing material to easily accumulate and be unevenly poured into the processing equipment, thus affecting the quality of feeding and resulting in poor practicality, this utility model adopts the following technical solution.
[0007] A feeding device for injection molding of plastic lunch boxes includes a feeding hopper, a conveying pipe fixedly connected to the bottom of the feeding hopper, a distributing hopper fixedly connected to the end of the conveying pipe, a hemisphere disposed at the center of the distributing hopper, and multiple discharge holes provided at the bottom edge of the distributing hopper, the multiple discharge holes being evenly distributed in a ring about the central axis of the distributing hopper, a rotatable central shaft disposed inside the conveying pipe, and a spiral blade fixedly connected to the outer side of the central shaft.
[0008] Preferably, the central axis of the spiral blade coincides with the central axis of the central shaft, the outer side of the spiral blade is in contact with the inner wall of the conveying pipe, and the central axis of the conveying pipe coincides with the central axis of the central shaft.
[0009] Preferably, the top of the feeding hopper is threaded with a hopper cover, the central shaft passes through the hopper cover, and multiple connecting pipes are fixedly connected to the outer top of the hopper cover. The connecting pipes communicate with the inside of the feeding hopper through the hopper cover, and the multiple connecting pipes are evenly distributed in a ring about the vertical center line of the feeding hopper.
[0010] Preferably, a motor is fixedly connected to the top center of the compartment cover, and the output end of the motor is fixedly connected to the central shaft.
[0011] Preferably, a connecting frame is fixedly connected to the middle of the outer side of the conveying pipe, and an mounting frame is provided on the outer side of the connecting frame.

Both ends of the threaded shaft 13 are threadedly connected to locking rings 14. The outer side of the locking ring 14 has a "plum blossom" structure. The central axis of the locking ring 14 coincides with the central axis of the threaded shaft 13. Tightening the locking ring 14 can restrict the mounting frame 12 from moving away from the connecting frame 11. The connecting frame 11 can rotate. The four corners of the mounting frame 12 are provided with threaded holes. The threaded holes are symmetrical about the horizontal center line of the mounting frame 12. Through the threaded holes on the mounting frame 12, and with the use of external bolts, the mounting frame 12 can be connected to the external equipment to complete the installation of this device. The threaded shaft 13 can be used to make the connecting frame 11 rotate slightly, which is convenient for adjusting the tilt angle of the conveying pipe 2 and feeding materials in different places, thereby improving the applicability of this device. Tightening the locking ring 14 can fix the connecting frame 11 and make it easy to fix the conveying pipe 2 at a certain tilt angle.
[0021] In this embodiment, a cover 8 is threadedly connected to the top of the feeding hopper 1. A central shaft 6 passes through the cover 8. Multiple connecting pipes 9 are fixedly connected to the outer top of the cover 8. The connecting pipes 9 communicate with the inside of the feeding hopper 1 through the cover 8. The multiple connecting pipes 9 are evenly distributed in a ring about the vertical center line of the feeding hopper 1. A motor 10 is fixedly connected to the center of the top of the cover 8. The output end of the motor 10 is fixedly connected to the central shaft 6. A distribution hopper 3 is fixedly connected to the end of the conveying pipe 2. The connecting pipes 9 on the cover 8 can connect this device to external conveying equipment, facilitating the conveying of various materials into the feeding hopper 1 through the connecting pipes 9. Starting the motor 10 causes the central shaft 6 to rotate, which drives the spiral blade 7 to rotate. The rotation of the spiral blade 7 can convey materials into the distribution hopper 3. In this embodiment, a hemisphere 4 is provided at the center of the material distribution bin 3, and multiple discharge holes 5 are provided at the bottom edge of the material distribution bin 3. The multiple discharge holes 5 are evenly distributed in a ring about the central axis of the material distribution bin 3. A rotatable central shaft 6 is provided inside the conveying pipe 2, and a spiral blade 7 is fixedly connected to the outside of the central shaft 6. The central axis of the spiral blade 7 coincides with the central axis of the central shaft 6, and the outside of the spiral blade 7 is in contact with the inner wall of the conveying pipe 2. The central axis of the conveying pipe 2 coincides with the central axis of the central shaft 6. Through the hemisphere 4 inside the material distribution bin 3, the conveyed material can flow into the edge of the material distribution bin 3. The multiple discharge holes 5 can make the material flow out from the edge of the material distribution bin 3, preventing accumulation during feeding, facilitating uniform feeding of the device, thereby improving the feeding quality. In addition, the rotation of the spiral blade 7 can play a role in preventing blockage during feeding.
[0022] In this embodiment, a heating pipe 15 is fixedly connected to the outside of the conveying pipe 2.

[0023] Working principle: When using this device, firstly, the mounting bracket 12 can be connected to the external equipment through the threaded hole on the mounting bracket 12 and the use of external bolts to complete the installation of this device. Using the threaded shaft 13, the connecting bracket 11 can be rotated slightly to facilitate the adjustment of the tilt angle of the conveying pipe 2, allowing for material feeding in different locations, thereby improving the applicability of this device. Tightening the locking ring 14 can fix the connecting bracket 11, making it easy to fix the conveying pipe 2 at a certain tilt angle.
[0024] The device can be connected to external material conveying equipment via the connecting pipe 9 on the cover 8, facilitating the conveying of various materials into the feed hopper 1. Starting the motor 10 causes the central shaft 6 to rotate, driving the spiral blade 7 to rotate. The rotation of the spiral blade 7 conveys the material into the distribution hopper 3. Through the hemisphere 4 inside the distribution hopper 3, the conveyed material flows to the edge of the distribution hopper 3. Multiple discharge holes 5 allow the material to flow out from the edge of the distribution hopper 3, preventing accumulation during feeding and ensuring uniform feeding, thus improving feeding quality. The rotation of the spiral blade 7 also prevents blockage during conveying. The heating pipe 2 heats the conveying pipe 15, preventing the material inside the conveying pipe 2 from cooling and affecting feeding.
