Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of ice cream cupping technology, specifically a cupping device for convenient ice cream production. Background Technology

[0002] The function of an automatic ice cream filling machine is to automatically fill ice cream processed by an ice cream machine and led out through pipelines. It is an indispensable packaging equipment in a complete ice cream production line. It consists of a frame, a filling mechanism, a chain track mechanism, and a power mechanism. The chain track mechanism causes empty cups that arrive one after another on the chain plate to enter the bottom of the filling mechanism. The frozen material is introduced into the filling mechanism through pipelines. The filling mechanism fills the paper cups placed on the chain plate of the chain track mechanism with ice cream. This filling process is repeated continuously.

[0003] Chinese Patent Publication No. CN222005562U discloses a cup-filling device for ice cream production, relating to the field of filling technology. It utilizes a downward-flaring, trumpet-shaped positioning structure formed by multiple positioning rods along the periphery of a ring-shaped fixed seat. Before filling, an electric push rod drives the ring-shaped fixed seat, moving the multiple positioning rods downwards. The downward-flaring, trumpet-shaped structure formed by the multiple positioning rods straightens and positions the paper cup, ensuring the cup is precisely below the filling nozzle for accurate filling and improved filling quality. The downward-flaring, trumpet-shaped structure of the multiple positioning rods provides better tolerance between the cup and the paper cup, and a wider positioning range. Through the coordinated arrangement of gear one, gear two, an external gear ring, and a slider, the operator can manually rotate the external gear ring. The linkage between the external gear ring, gear two, gear one, and the slider causes the multiple positioning rods to move synchronously, thereby quickly adjusting the circumference diameter formed by the multiple positioning rods to accommodate paper cups of different diameters.

[0004] The device uses a positioning rod to straighten and position the paper cup. Adjusting the position of the positioning rod requires the rotation of the outer toothed ring. However, the outer toothed ring is built into a protective cover, and the protective cover must be removed before rotating the outer toothed ring, making the process of adjusting the outer toothed ring very inconvenient each time.

[0005] Based on this, a convenient feeding device for ice cream production is now provided, which can eliminate the drawbacks of existing devices. Utility Model Content

Detailed Implementation

[0022] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0023] In one embodiment, such as Figures 1-4 As shown, a convenient feeding device for ice cream production includes a cup holder 1, an adjusting cylinder 5 movably disposed on the side wall of the cup holder 1, a filling nozzle 8 for filling the cup body disposed at the bottom of the adjusting cylinder 5, a feeding pipe 3 for feeding material connected to the outer wall of the filling nozzle 8, a plurality of limiting blocks 7 for limiting the cup body movably disposed at the bottom of the adjusting cylinder 5, and an adjusting component for adjusting the spacing between the plurality of limiting blocks 7 disposed inside the adjusting cylinder 5. In this embodiment, the adjusting cylinder 5 can move on the side wall of the cup holder 1 to adjust its position. The ice cream ingredients enter the filling nozzle 8 through the feed pipe 3 connected to the filling nozzle 8, and then are poured into the cup body through the filling nozzle 8. Multiple limiting blocks 7 at the bottom of the adjusting cylinder 5 are used to limit the cup body to prevent the cup body from shifting during pouring. The adjusting component inside the adjusting cylinder 5 can adjust the spacing of the multiple limiting blocks 7 to adapt to cup bodies of different sizes, so as to achieve stable limiting and precise pouring for different cup bodies. In one embodiment, such as Figure 3As shown, the adjustment assembly includes an adjustment screw 9 rotatably disposed inside the adjustment cylinder 5. The external thread of the adjustment screw 9 is provided with a lifting plate 11. The bottom of the lifting plate 11 is rotatably provided with a number of connecting blocks 12 equal to the number of limiting blocks 7. The other end of the connecting block 12 is rotatably connected to the top of the limiting block 7. The bottom of the adjustment cylinder 5 is provided with a limiting groove for the limiting block 7 to move. When it is necessary to adjust the spacing of the limit blocks 7, rotate the adjusting screw 9 inside the adjusting cylinder 5. Since the adjusting screw 9 is threadedly connected to the lifting plate 11, the rotation of the adjusting screw 9 will drive the lifting plate 11 to rise and fall along the axis of the adjusting screw 9. When the lifting plate 11 rises and falls, the connecting block 12 rotatably connected to its bottom will move accordingly. The other end of the connecting block 12 is rotatably connected to the top of the limit block 7, thereby pushing or pulling the limit block 7 to move along the limiting groove at the bottom of the adjusting cylinder 5, and finally realizing the adjustment of the spacing of multiple limit blocks 7.

[0024] In one embodiment, such as Figure 3 As shown, a guide rod 13 is provided inside the limiting groove, and the limiting block 7 is slidably disposed outside the guide rod 13; During the movement of the limiting block 7 along the limiting groove, the guide rod 13 inside the limiting groove guides the limiting block 7 that is slidably set outside it, preventing the limiting block 7 from deviating from the preset trajectory during movement, ensuring that the limiting block 7 always moves in the correct direction, and guaranteeing the accuracy and stability of the spacing adjustment.

[0025] In one embodiment, such as Figure 4 As shown, a rotating block 10 is provided on the top outer wall of the adjusting screw 9, a pull rod 14 is movably provided inside the rotating block 10, a positioning pin 15 is provided at the bottom of the pull rod 14, and a plurality of positioning grooves that are adapted to the positioning pin 15 are provided on the top of the adjusting cylinder 5. When the adjusting screw 9 is rotated to adjust the position of the lifting plate 11, the adjusting screw 9 can be rotated by rotating the rotating block 10 at the top of the adjusting screw 9. If it is necessary to fix the position of the adjusting screw 9, the positioning pin 15 at the bottom of the pull rod 14 is inserted into the corresponding positioning groove at the top of the adjusting cylinder 5, which can restrict the rotation of the rotating block 10 and the adjusting screw 9, and fix the position of the adjusting screw 9. If it is necessary to adjust again, pull the pull rod 14 upward to make the positioning pin 15 disengage from the positioning groove, and then the rotating block 10 can be rotated again to drive the adjusting screw 9 to rotate.

[0026] In one embodiment, such as Figure 4 As shown, a compression spring 16 is sleeved on the outside of the pull rod 14. One end of the compression spring 16 is connected to the bottom of the rotating block 10, and the other end of the compression spring 16 is connected to the top of the positioning pin 15. A compression spring 16 is sleeved on the outside of the pull rod 14. One end is connected to the bottom of the rotating block 10, and the other end is connected to the top of the positioning pin 15. In its natural state, the compression spring 16 is in a compressed state, which generates a downward elastic force on the positioning pin 15, so that the positioning pin 15 is tightly inserted into the positioning groove, which enhances the stability of the fit between the positioning pin 15 and the positioning groove and prevents the positioning pin 15 from dislodging from the positioning groove under non-human operation, causing the adjusting screw 9 to rotate unexpectedly. When the pull rod 14 is pulled upward, the compression spring 16 is further compressed. After the pull rod 14 is released, the elastic force of the compression spring 16 can push the positioning pin 15 to automatically reset and insert into the positioning groove.

[0027] In one embodiment, such as Figure 1 As shown, the side wall of the cup holder 1 is provided with an electromagnetic slide rail 2, and an electromagnetic slider 4 is slidably provided on the outside of the electromagnetic slide rail 2. The side wall of the electromagnetic slider 4 is provided with an installation ring 6 for installing the adjusting cylinder 5. When the electromagnetic slide rail 2 on the side wall of the cup holder 1 is energized, it generates a magnetic field. The electromagnetic slider 4 can slide along the electromagnetic slide rail 2 under the action of the magnetic field. The mounting ring 6 on the side wall of the electromagnetic slider 4 is used to install the adjusting cylinder 5. When the electromagnetic slider 4 slides, it will drive the mounting ring 6 and the adjusting cylinder 5 to move synchronously, thereby adjusting the filling position of the filling nozzle 8 at the bottom of the adjusting cylinder 5.

[0028] In one embodiment, such as Figure 1 As shown, the top of the cup holder 1 is provided with a cup tray 17 for placing the cup body; The cup tray 17 at the top of the cup holder 1 is used to place the cup to be filled, providing a stable platform for the cup and ensuring that the cup remains stable on the cup tray 17. This facilitates the limiting block 7 at the bottom of the adjusting cylinder 5 to limit the cup, and at the same time, it facilitates the filling nozzle 8 to accurately pour ice cream into the cup.

[0029] In one embodiment, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the bottom end of the limiting block 7 is designed to expand outwards; The bottom end of the limiting block 7 is set to expand outward. When the cup is placed on the cup tray 17 and limited, the outward expansion of the bottom end can guide the cup, making it easier for the cup to enter the limiting space surrounded by multiple limiting blocks 7, reducing the collision between the cup and the limiting block 7 when the cup is placed, and improving the convenience and efficiency of cup placement.

[0030] The above embodiment discloses a convenient ice cream filling device for production. The filling base 1 provides support for the entire device, and the cup tray 17 holds the cups to be filled. Through the cooperation of the electromagnetic slide rail 2 and the electromagnetic slider 4, the mounting ring 6 and the adjusting cylinder 5 move. Ice cream ingredients enter the filling nozzle 8 through the feed pipe 3. Before filling, the spacing of the limiting blocks 7 is adjusted using the adjusting assembly: rotating the rotating block 10 drives the adjusting screw 9 to rotate, causing the lifting plate 11 to rise and fall. The connecting block 12 pushes the limiting blocks 7 along the limiting groove. During this process, the compression spring 16 assists the positioning pin 15 in fixing the position of the adjusting screw 9. The outwardly expanding bottom end of the limiting blocks 7 guides the cup into the limiting space and limits its position. Finally, the filling nozzle 8 fills the limited cup with ice cream, completing the ice cream filling operation.

[0031] The above description is merely a specific embodiment of this application, but the scope of protection of this application is not limited thereto. Any variations or substitutions that can be easily conceived by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in this application should be included within the scope of protection of this application. Therefore, the scope of protection of this application should be determined by the scope of the claims.
