Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of feeding equipment technology, and in particular to an auxiliary feeding device for a tumbling machine. Background Technology

[0002] In the food processing industry, tumblers are an important piece of equipment widely used in the marinating and tenderizing of meat, fish, and other foods. Tumblers use rotating drums to continuously tumble and beat the materials inside, accelerating the penetration and distribution of the marinade, thus improving the quality and taste of the food. However, the efficiency and quality of the feeding process directly affect the smoothness of the entire production flow and the final product quality. Currently, although some feeding devices for tumblers exist on the market, these devices have many problems in the connection between the clamping components and the drive components (such as hydraulic cylinders), resulting in inefficiencies and high safety risks in the feeding process.

[0003] In actual production, due to the varying shapes, sizes, and weights of different materials, different specifications of clamping components may be required to ensure the stability and accuracy of feeding. However, in existing feeding devices, the connection between the clamping components and the drive components is often complex, with cumbersome disassembly and installation processes that consume significant time and manpower. For example, some devices use bolts to connect the clamping components and the drive components. When replacing the clamping components, multiple bolts need to be loosened and tightened one by one, a very tedious process that severely impacts production efficiency. When the production line needs to frequently change clamping components of different specifications, this inefficient replacement method leads to excessive equipment downtime, reduces overall production efficiency, and increases production costs.

[0004] The stability of the connection between the clamping component and the drive unit is crucial for the safety of the feeding process. If the connection is not secure, the clamping component may wobble, loosen, or even fall off during feeding, causing material to fall out. This not only wastes material but may also injure operators. Some existing feeding devices have inadequate designs for the connection between the clamping component and the drive unit, lacking effective measures to prevent loosening and lateral movement. Therefore, we provide an auxiliary feeding device for tumbling machines. Utility Model Content

[0005] To address the aforementioned problems, this invention proposes an auxiliary feeding device for a tumbling machine, which more accurately solves the problems mentioned in the background section.

[0006] This utility model is achieved through the following technical solution:

[0007] The utility model proposes an auxiliary feeding device for a tumbling machine, including a support frame. An L-shaped plate is fixedly welded to the upper end of the support frame. A transverse movement mechanism is fixedly installed on the L-shaped plate. A hydraulic cylinder is installed on the L-shaped plate through the transverse movement mechanism. A clamping component is installed at the output end of the hydraulic cylinder. A disassembly and assembly mechanism is connected between the output end of the hydraulic cylinder and the clamping component.

[0008] The disassembly and assembly mechanism includes a first docking plate fixedly installed at the output end of the hydraulic cylinder and a second docking plate fixedly installed at the upper end of the clamping component. The end of the first docking plate has a limit insertion hole, and the end of the second docking plate has a rectangular through groove. A sliding plate is slidably connected to the inner wall of the rectangular through groove. A connecting rod is fixedly connected to the surface of the sliding plate. A triangular block is fixedly installed at the end of the connecting rod. Limit insertion rods are fixedly connected to the opposite faces of the two triangular blocks. A recovery component is connected between the rectangular through groove and the sliding plate.

[0009] Furthermore, the restoration component includes a strip-shaped groove formed on the inner sidewall of a rectangular through slot, a fixing rod fixedly connected between the two end walls of the strip-shaped groove, a spring sleeved around the fixing rod, and a sliding sleeve block slidably sleeved around the fixing rod.

[0010] Furthermore, the lower end surface of the first docking plate is provided with an insertion groove, and the upper end surface of the second docking plate is fixedly installed with an insertion block, which is inserted into the inner wall of the insertion groove to prevent the first docking plate and the second docking plate from shifting laterally after docking.

[0011] Furthermore, the sliding sleeve is slidably connected to the inner wall of the strip groove, and the opposite surfaces of the two sliding sleeves are fixedly connected to the two end surfaces of one of the sliding plates.

[0012] Furthermore, one end of the limiting rod is inserted into the inner wall of the limiting hole, and the inner diameter of the limiting hole is compatible with the outer diameter of the limiting rod.

[0013] Furthermore, one end of the spring is fixedly connected to the end wall of the strip groove, and the other end of the spring is fixedly connected to one end surface of the sliding sleeve block.

[0014] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0015] This invention, through its assembly and disassembly mechanism, allows for easy removal of the clamping component from the hydraulic cylinder output end when different specifications of clamping parts need to be replaced to accommodate different materials or feeding requirements. Simply pull the limiting rod out of the limiting socket to easily detach the clamping part. During installation, align the second docking plate with the first docking plate, insert the limiting rod into the limiting socket, and simultaneously insert the connecting block into the connecting slot to prevent lateral movement. This convenient assembly and disassembly method significantly reduces the time required for maintenance and replacement of clamping parts, improves production efficiency, and reduces costs associated with equipment downtime for maintenance.

[0016] This invention utilizes a mutually compatible and tightly fitted limiting rod and limiting hole to ensure a secure connection between the hydraulic cylinder output end and the clamping component, preventing the limiting rod from wobbling within the limiting hole during use. Simultaneously, the cooperation between the insertion block and the insertion slot further prevents lateral movement after the first and second docking plates are joined, enhancing connection stability. Furthermore, the spring in the recovery assembly provides restoring force during the sliding of the sliding sleeve block, enabling the sliding plate to promptly return to its original position, ensuring that all components of the disassembly and assembly mechanism remain in the correct position. These design features collectively guarantee the stability of the connection between the clamping component and the hydraulic cylinder output end during feeding, preventing material drop or equipment malfunction due to loose connections, and ensuring a safe and reliable feeding process.

[0022] To more clearly and completely illustrate the technical solution of this utility model, the following description, in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, will provide further details.

[0023] Example

[0024] like Figures 1-4 As shown in the figure, an auxiliary feeding device for a tumbling machine according to one embodiment of the present invention includes a support frame 1. An L-shaped plate 2 is fixedly welded to the upper end of the support frame 1. A transverse movement mechanism 3 is fixedly installed on the L-shaped plate 2. A hydraulic cylinder 4 is installed on the L-shaped plate 2 through the transverse movement mechanism 3. A clamping member 5 is installed at the output end of the hydraulic cylinder 4. A disassembly and assembly mechanism is connected between the output end of the hydraulic cylinder 4 and the clamping member 5. A first docking plate 6 is fixedly installed at the output end of the hydraulic cylinder 4. A second docking plate 7 is fixedly installed at the upper end of the clamping member 5. A limit insertion hole 8 is opened at the end of the first docking plate 6. A rectangular through groove 9 is opened at the end of the second docking plate 7. A sliding plate 10 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the rectangular through groove 9. A connecting rod 11 is fixedly connected to the surface of the sliding plate 10. A triangular block 12 is fixedly installed at the end of the connecting rod 11. Limit insertion rods 13 are fixedly connected to the opposite faces of the two triangular blocks 12. A recovery component is connected between the rectangular through groove 9 and the sliding plate 10. When clamping component 5 needs to be installed, docking plate 2 7 is docked with docking plate 1 6, so that the limiting rod 13 is inserted into the limiting hole 8 under the corresponding operation, thereby connecting the output end of hydraulic cylinder 4 with clamping component 5; when clamping component 5 needs to be disassembled, the limiting rod 13 is pulled out from the limiting hole 8 by operation, and clamping component 5 can be disassembled from the output end of hydraulic cylinder 4.

[0025] Furthermore, a strip-shaped groove 14 is formed on the inner wall of the rectangular through groove 9. A fixing rod 15 is fixedly connected between the two end walls of the strip-shaped groove 14. A spring 16 is sleeved around the fixing rod 15, and a sliding sleeve block 17 is slidably sleeved around the fixing rod 15. When the sliding plate 10 slides in the rectangular through groove 9, it drives the sliding sleeve block 17 to slide on the fixing rod 15. The spring 16 is compressed or stretched during the sliding of the sliding sleeve block 17. When the external force disappears, the spring 16 returns to its original shape, driving the sliding sleeve block 17 to slide, and then driving the sliding plate 10 to slide, thus realizing the restoration function.

[0026] Furthermore, a insertion groove 18 is formed on the lower surface of the first docking plate 6, and an insertion block 19 is fixedly installed on the upper surface of the second docking plate 7. When the first docking plate 6 and the second docking plate 7 are docked, the insertion block 19 is inserted into the inner wall of the insertion groove 18. Through the cooperation between the insertion block 19 and the insertion groove 18, lateral displacement of the first docking plate 6 and the second docking plate 7 after docking is prevented, ensuring the stability of the docking.

[0027] Furthermore, the sliding sleeve 17 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the strip groove 14, and the opposing surfaces of the two sliding sleeves 17 are fixedly connected to the two end surfaces of a sliding plate 10. When the sliding plate 10 slides in the rectangular through groove 9, since the sliding sleeves 17 are fixedly connected to the sliding plate 10, the sliding sleeves 17 will slide along the inner wall of the strip groove 14. At the same time, since the sliding sleeves 17 are slidably sleeved on the fixed rod 15, the stability of the sliding plate 10 is ensured.

[0028] Furthermore, one end of the limiting rod 13 is inserted into the inner wall of the limiting hole 8, and the inner diameter of the limiting hole 8 is matched with the outer diameter of the limiting rod 13. In this way, after the limiting rod 13 is inserted into the limiting hole 8, it can fit tightly, ensuring the firm connection between the output end of the hydraulic cylinder 4 and the clamping member 5, and preventing the limiting rod 13 from shaking in the limiting hole 8 during use.

[0029] Furthermore, one end of the spring 16 is fixedly connected to the end wall of the strip groove 14, and the other end of the spring 16 is fixedly connected to one end surface of the sliding sleeve block 17. When the sliding sleeve block 17 slides on the fixed rod 15, the spring 16 will be stretched or compressed. When the external force disappears, the spring 16 will return to its original shape due to its own elasticity, thereby driving the sliding sleeve block 17 to slide, realizing the restoration function of the sliding plate 10, and ensuring that the disassembly and assembly mechanism can work normally.
