Detailed Implementation

[0015] The specific embodiments of this utility model will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be noted that these descriptions are for the purpose of aiding understanding of this utility model, but do not constitute a limitation thereof. Furthermore, the technical features involved in the various embodiments of this utility model described below can be combined with each other as long as they do not conflict with each other.

[0016] Example An automatic dispensing device for packaging fresh, wet rice noodles, such as Figure 1-7 As shown, the system includes a vacuum-splitting integrated machine 2; the vacuum-splitting integrated machine 2 includes a frame, on which a vacuum tank 201 and a material mixing tank 202 are installed sequentially from top to bottom; the vacuum tank 201 is provided with a first connection port 205 and a second connection port 206; the first connection port 205 is connected to the vacuum system, and an air inlet valve is installed on the second connection port 206; the bottom of the vacuum tank 201 is connected to the material mixing tank 202 through a discharge pipe 207; the bottom of the material mixing tank 202 is connected to several shut-off valves 204; the shut-off valves 204 are connected to the material mixing pipe 203; shut-off valves 204 are also installed on the discharge pipe 207.

[0017] The aforementioned automatic dispensing device for fresh rice noodles packaging first closes the shut-off valve 204 on the discharge pipe 207. A vacuum system (vacuum pump, exhaust pipe) extracts gas from the vacuum tank 201, creating a negative pressure within it. This negative pressure draws the mixture of water and rice noodles into the vacuum tank 201. Then, the inlet valve and the shut-off valve 204 on the discharge pipe 207 are opened, allowing the water and rice noodle mixture in the vacuum tank 201 to enter the dispensing and mixing tank 202 through the discharge pipe 207. From there, it is automatically distributed into several dispensing pipes 203. The vacuum system is existing technology and is not shown in the diagram.

[0018] Specifically, a first stirring shaft and a first stirring blade are rotatably installed inside the mixing tank 202; the first stirring shaft is connected to a first stirring motor. During operation, the first stirring blade rotates, which can make the rice noodles and water distributed relatively evenly, preventing the rice noodles from settling and clogging the mixing pipe 203.

[0019] Specifically, a level sensor for controlling the incoming materials is installed inside the material mixing tank 202; a ladder is installed on the frame. The level sensor and ladder are not shown in the figure. The level sensor inside the material mixing tank 202 is connected to the controller and is linked to the vacuum pump of the vacuum system.

[0020] Specifically, it also includes several strip grabbers 3; the number of strip grabbers 3 is the same as the number of distribution pipes 203; each strip grabber 3 includes a support frame; a conveying bin 303 is installed on the support frame; a pushing auger 304 is rotatably installed inside the conveying bin 303; the discharge port of the conveying bin 303 is located on the lower side of one end, and the inlet is located on the upper side of the other end, with a hopper 305 connected to the inlet; a feeding trough 301 is installed at an angle above the hopper 305; the feeding trough 301 adopts a double-layer structure, with a perforated plate 302 separating the middle; a discharge hole is opened at the end of the perforated plate 302; the hopper 305 is located below the discharge hole; one end of the conveying pipe is connected to the distribution pipe 203, and the other end is located above one end of the feeding trough 301. Water and rice noodles in the mixing tank 202 are conveyed to the feeding tank 301 through the distributing pipe 203 and the conveying pipe. Most of the water falls into the lower layer of the feeding tank 301 through the perforated plate 302, while the rice noodles are intercepted in the upper layer and flow downwards along the inclined perforated plate 302 into the hopper 305. Finally, they are discharged from the outlet under the action of the auger 304. The outlet of the conveying bin 303 is located above one end of the conveyor. The discharged rice noodles fall onto the conveyor belt and are transported to the packaging machine for packaging.

[0021] Specifically, a liquid level sensor for controlling the incoming materials in the front-end production is installed inside the hopper 305. The liquid level sensor inside the hopper 305 is connected to the controller and is linked to the shut-off valve 204 at the bottom of the material dispensing and mixing tank 202.

[0022] Specifically, it also includes a receiving tank 1; the outlet of the receiving tank 1 is connected to the inlet 208 of the vacuum tank 201 through a pipe; a liquid level sensor for controlling the incoming material at the front end of the production is installed in the receiving tank 1.

[0023] Specifically, the receiving trough 1 is rotatably equipped with a second stirring shaft 101 and a second stirring blade 102; the second stirring shaft 101 is connected to the second stirring motor 103.

[0024] Specifically, one end of the circulation pipe 306 is connected to the bottom of the feed trough 301, and the other end extends into the inner cavity of the receiving trough 1; a circulation pump is installed on the circulation pipe 306. Recycling water can save water resources and reduce production costs.

[0025] The entire set of equipment is made of food-grade 304 stainless steel, and the connecting pipes are all connected by 80cm long segmented joints with sealing.

[0026] The working principle of this utility model: The liquid level sensor in receiving tank 1 transmits a signal to the controller. When the liquid level is lower than the set value, the controller controls the preceding discharge mechanism to release the mixture of rice noodles and water into the inner cavity of receiving tank 1. The second stirring shaft 101 in receiving tank 1 drives the second stirring blade 102 to rotate, preventing the rice noodles from settling. The liquid level sensor in distributing mixing tank 202 transmits a signal to the controller. When the liquid level is lower than the set value, material extraction is required. First, the shut-off valve 204 on the discharge pipe 207 is closed, and the vacuum pump of the vacuum system is turned on. The gas in the vacuum tank 201 is extracted through the exhaust pipe, creating a negative pressure inside the vacuum tank 201. The negative pressure draws the mixture of water and rice noodles into the vacuum tank 201. Then, the inlet valve and the shut-off valve 204 on the discharge pipe 207 are opened, and the mixture of water and rice noodles in the vacuum tank 201 enters the inner cavity of distributing mixing tank 202 through the discharge pipe 207. The rice noodles in the mixing tank 202 are dispersed into several distribution pipes 203 under the action of stirring, and then conveyed to the feed tank 301 through the conveying pipe. Most of the water falls into the lower layer of the feed tank 301 through the mesh plate 302, while the rice noodles are intercepted in the upper layer and flow down along the inclined mesh plate 302 into the hopper 305. Finally, they are discharged from the outlet under the action of the auger 304. The discharged rice noodles fall onto the conveyor belt and are transported to the packaging machine for packaging. The liquid level sensor in the hopper 305 sends a signal to the controller. When the liquid level is lower than the set value, the shut-off valve 204 at the bottom of the mixing tank 202 is opened, and the mixture of rice noodles and water begins to flow into the strip grabber. Each start and stop is performed according to the preset time value of the vacuum pump and various valves. The specific preset time in seconds can be adjusted and optimized according to production needs and equipment size.

[0027] This patent is also applicable to the automatic dispensing of other fresh and wet strip-shaped rice and flour products such as vermicelli.

[0028] The embodiments of this utility model have been described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings, but this utility model is not limited to the described embodiments. For those skilled in the art, various changes, modifications, substitutions, and variations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of this utility model, and these variations still fall within the protection scope of this utility model.
