Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of flattening devices, specifically a flattening device for the inlet of quick-frozen products. Background Technology

[0002] The inlet flattening device for quick-frozen products is a key piece of equipment in the quick-frozen food processing production line. Quick-frozen foods generally refer to foods processed by rapid low-temperature treatment. During the production of quick-frozen foods, vacuum packaging is required to extend their shelf life. However, when vacuum packaging machines package quick-frozen foods, the food often accumulates at the bottom of the packaging bag. After vacuum sealing, this results in obvious bulges on the packaging bag, affecting the aesthetics of the packaging and making it inconvenient for boxing. Therefore, a flattening device is used to flatten the food.

[0003] A search revealed a Chinese patent publication number, CN218578214U, which provides a vacuum packaging flattening device for quick-frozen foods. This patent flattens the quick-frozen food by extending the flattening mechanism into the filling groove through an avoidance groove, between the baffle and the moving end of the flattening device, ensuring that the quick-frozen food is flattened. This results in the quick-frozen food being aesthetically pleasing and flat after vacuum packaging, and also facilitates boxing and packaging.

[0004] While the aforementioned patented technology effectively ensures that frozen foods maintain a regular shape after flattening, resulting in aesthetically pleasing and smooth-surfaced vacuum-packed products, and also facilitates subsequent packing and transportation, the device still has the following problems: The device uses a control unit to drive the flattening mechanism and the pushing mechanism separately. First, the flattening mechanism is activated to flatten the frozen food. After the flattening process is completed, the telescopic component is activated to push the flattened food into the feeding port. In actual production, this intermittent working method increases the complexity of operation, prolongs the overall processing time of a single product, and reduces product processing efficiency. To address these issues, it is necessary to make innovative modifications to the existing device to achieve simultaneous flattening and feeding processes, thereby improving the flattening efficiency of the equipment. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a quick-frozen product inlet flattening device to solve the problem mentioned in the above-mentioned comparative documents that after the flattened food is sent into the feeding port, it is still necessary to use a telescopic component to feed the food, which is a complicated operation.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a quick-frozen product inlet flattening device, comprising a device body, the device body having two symmetrical first mounting slots inside, each of the two first mounting slots having a first sliding groove penetrating the device body inside, each of the two first sliding grooves having a first sliding plate slidably connected inside, each of the two device body having two second mounting slots on each side, the two second mounting slots being located on opposite sides of the two first mounting slots, each of the two second mounting slots on one side of the device body having a second sliding groove penetrating the surface of the device body, each of the two second sliding grooves having a second sliding plate slidably connected inside, a movable frame slidably connected inside the device body, the surface of the movable frame having storage slots arranged at equal intervals, the first mounting slots and storage slots being interconnected inside, the device body having two symmetrical feeding cavities inside, the feeding cavities being connected to the second mounting slots through the storage slots.

[0007] Preferably, push plates are fixedly connected to opposite sides of the two first slide plates, and push plates are also fixedly connected to one end of the two second slide plates. The interiors of the first and second mounting slots are slidably connected to the corresponding push plates.

[0008] Preferably, a first limiting plate is fixedly connected to the surface of the movable frame, a second limiting plate is fixedly connected to the bottom of the movable frame, and a stop block is fixedly connected to the bottom of the device body.

[0009] Preferably, the device body is internally rotatably connected to a bidirectional threaded rod, and the interior of each of the two first sliding plates is threadedly connected to the surface of the bidirectional threaded rod, with the internal threads of the two first sliding plates respectively matching the threads of the two sections of the bidirectional threaded rod.

[0010] Preferably, a motor is provided on one side of the device body, the output end of the motor is rotatably connected to the inside of the device body, and the output end of the motor is fixedly connected to the end of the bidirectional threaded rod near the motor via a coupling.

[0011] Preferably, a drive gear is fixedly connected to the surface of the bidirectional threaded rod, and two symmetrical threaded rods are rotatably connected inside the main body of the device.

[0012] Preferably, driven gears are fixedly connected to the surfaces of both threaded rods, the surfaces of both driven gears are meshed with the surfaces of the driving gears, and the surfaces of the two threaded rods are respectively connected to the internal threads of the two second slide plates.

[0013] Preferably, two symmetrical end caps are fixedly connected to the top of the device body.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are: 1. The quick-frozen product inlet flattening device drives the bidirectional threaded rod to rotate by starting the motor. The rotation of the bidirectional threaded rod causes the two first slide plates to move relative to each other along the axis of the bidirectional threaded rod. This causes the two first slide plates to drive the push plates connected to them to move relative to each other or in opposite directions. As a result, the two push plates squeeze or shrink the quick-frozen product, making the quick-frozen product look beautiful and flat after vacuum packaging, and also making it easier to pack and box.

[0015] 2. The quick-frozen product inlet flattening device uses a bidirectional threaded rod to drive a drive gear, which in turn drives two driven gears. These driven gears then move two second sliding plates along the axial direction of the threaded rod, causing the two second sliding plates to move their connected push plates. This pushes the quick-frozen product into the feeding chamber. Simultaneously, the push plates on the two first sliding plates flatten the quick-frozen product. This allows the device to simultaneously feed and flatten another quick-frozen product while feeding a vacuum-sealed quick-frozen product, thus improving overall flattening efficiency. After vacuuming, quick-frozen products can be placed in the storage tank in the middle. This eliminates the need for operators to control the feeding mechanism, reducing the workload of workers.

[0018] Please see Figure 1-5This utility model provides a technical solution: a quick-frozen product inlet flattening device, including a device body 1. The device body 1 has two symmetrical first mounting grooves 3 inside. Each of the two first mounting grooves 3 has a first sliding groove 11 that penetrates the device body 1. Each of the two first sliding grooves 11 has a first sliding plate 12 that is slidably connected inside. Each of the two sides of the device body 1 has two second mounting grooves 4. The two second mounting grooves 4 are located on both sides of the two first mounting grooves 3. Each of the two second mounting grooves 4 on one side of the device body 1 has a second sliding groove 14 that penetrates the surface of the device body 1. Each of the two second sliding grooves 14 has a second sliding plate 15 that is slidably connected inside. The device body 1 has a movable frame 2 that is slidably connected inside. The surface of the movable frame 2 has storage grooves 6 that are arranged at equal intervals. The first mounting grooves 3 and the storage grooves 6 are interconnected.

[0019] The device body 1 has two symmetrical feeding chambers 5 inside. The feeding chambers 5 are connected to the second mounting groove 4 through the storage groove 6. Push plates 13 are fixedly connected to opposite sides of the two first sliding plates 12. Push plates 13 are also fixedly connected to one end of the two second sliding plates 15. The interiors of the first mounting groove 3 and the second mounting groove 4 are slidably connected to the corresponding push plates 13 to flatten and push out the quick-frozen products. A vacuum packaging machine is installed on the top of the device body 1. The vacuum packaging machine is an existing structure and will not be described in detail again (for details, please refer to the Chinese patent). (Claim: CN218578214U) When the frozen product moves to the bottom of the vacuum packaging machine, the two first sliding plates 12 move relative to each other, thereby driving the two push plates 13 to squeeze the frozen product in both directions, ensuring that the frozen food is flattened, so that the vacuum-packed frozen product has a beautiful and flat appearance, and is also easy to pack. After the packing is completed, the moving frame 2 is moved to send the frozen product between the second mounting slot 4 and the feeding cavity 5. The second sliding plate 15 is moved to drive the push plates 13 to push the frozen product into the feeding cavity 5 to complete the feeding.

[0020] Furthermore, a first limiting plate 7 is fixedly connected to the surface of the movable frame 2, a second limiting plate 8 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the movable frame 2, and a stop block 9 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the device body 1. In the initial state of the device, the rightmost storage slot 6 is located directly below the vacuum packaging machine. At this time, the second limiting plate 8 and the stop block 9 are in contact with each other, so that the movable frame 2 cannot continue to move to the left, ensuring that the rightmost storage slot 6 can be accurately located directly below the vacuum packaging machine.

[0021] Furthermore, the device body 1 is internally rotatably connected to a bidirectional threaded rod 17. The interior of each of the two first slide plates 12 is threadedly connected to the surface of the bidirectional threaded rod 17. The internal threads of the two first slide plates 12 are respectively matched with the threads at both ends of the bidirectional threaded rod 17. A motor 16 is provided on one side of the device body 1. The motor 16 is an existing structure and will not be described in detail here. The output end of the motor 16 is rotatably connected to the interior of the device body 1. The output end of the motor 16 is fixedly connected to the end of the bidirectional threaded rod 17 near the motor 16 via a coupling. By starting the motor 16, the bidirectional threaded rod 17 is driven to rotate. Under the constraint of the first slide groove 11, the rotation of the bidirectional threaded rod 17 does not drive the first slide plates 12 to rotate. Instead, it causes the two first slide plates 12 to move relative to or away from each other along the axial direction of the bidirectional threaded rod 17. This causes the two first slide plates 12 to drive the push plates 13 connected to them to move relative to or away from each other, thereby causing the two push plates 13 to squeeze or release the quick-frozen product.

[0022] Furthermore, a drive gear 19 is fixedly connected to the surface of the bidirectional threaded rod 17, and two symmetrical threaded rods 18 are rotatably connected inside the device body 1. Driven gears 20 are fixedly connected to the surface of each of the two threaded rods 18, and the surfaces of the two driven gears 20 are meshed with the surfaces of the drive gear 19. The surfaces of the two threaded rods 18 are respectively threadedly connected to the interior of the two second slide plates 15. When the starter motor 16 drives the bidirectional threaded rod 17, the bidirectional threaded rod 17 rotates, causing the drive gear 19 to rotate. The drive gear 19 rotates, causing the two driven gears 20 to rotate. Under the constraint of the second slide groove 14, the rotation of the two driven gears 20 does not cause the two second slide plates 15 to rotate, but instead causes the two second slide plates 15 to move along the axial direction of the threaded rod 18, thereby causing the two second slide plates 15 to drive the push plate 13 connected to them to move, thus pushing the quick-frozen product into the unloading cavity 5 to complete the automatic unloading and reduce the labor intensity of workers.

[0023] Furthermore, two symmetrical closing frames 10 are fixedly connected to the top of the device body 1 to correct the position of the bag opening of the quick-frozen product to be flattened. This prevents the bag opening of the quick-frozen product from being crooked when the quick-frozen product is placed in a misaligned position and when the moving frame 2 transports the quick-frozen product to the bottom of the vacuum packaging machine, thus affecting the vacuum packaging of the quick-frozen product.

[0024] Working principle: When flattening the frozen product inlet using this type of device, the operator first places the frozen product inside the storage slot 6 in the middle, and then pushes the moving frame 2 to move the frozen product below the vacuum packaging machine. During the movement, the bag opening of the frozen product is corrected by the closing frame 10. When the end of the moving frame 2 away from the first limiting plate 7 is flush with one side of the device body 1, the frozen product is located directly below the vacuum packaging machine and between the two first sliding plates 12. At this time, the bag opening of the frozen product is directly below the vacuum packaging machine. The starting motor 16 drives the bidirectional threaded rod 17 to rotate. The rotation of the bidirectional threaded rod 17 drives the two first sliding plates 12 to move relative to each other along the axial direction of the bidirectional threaded rod 17. This causes the two first sliding plates 12 to drive the push plate 13 connected to them to move relative to each other, so that the two push plates 13 squeeze the frozen product in both directions. This makes the frozen product look beautiful and flat after vacuum packaging, and also facilitates boxing and packaging.

[0025] After vacuuming is complete, the next frozen product to be flattened is placed in the leftmost or rightmost storage slot 6. Then, the moving frame 2 is pushed or pulled to send the vacuumed frozen product between the second mounting slot 4 and the unloading cavity 5. At this time, the first limiting plate 7 is in contact with one side of the device body 1 or the second limiting plate 8 is in contact with the stop block 9, preventing the moving frame 2 from being pushed or pulled further. At the same time, the next frozen product to be flattened moves between the two first sliding plates 12. Then, the motor 16 is started to drive the bidirectional threaded rod 17. The bidirectional threaded rod 17 rotates, driving the drive gear 19 to rotate. The drive gear 19 rotates, driving the two driven gears 20 to rotate. The two driven gears 20 rotate, driving the... The two second sliding plates 15 move along the axial direction of the threaded rod 18, thereby causing the two second sliding plates 15 to drive the push plate 13 connected to them to move, thus pushing the vacuumed quick-frozen product into the feeding chamber 5. At the same time, the push plate 13 on the two first sliding plates 12 flattens the quick-frozen product, so that the device can feed the vacuumed quick-frozen product while flattening and vacuuming another quick-frozen product, thereby improving the overall flattening efficiency. After vacuuming is completed, quick-frozen products can continue to be placed in the storage tank 6 located in the middle, so that the operator only needs to load and move the moving frame 2, without the need for additional control of the feeding mechanism, reducing the labor intensity of the workers.
