Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of packaging machine technology, specifically to a packaging machine for maintaining the activity of live probiotic solid beverages. Background Technology

[0002] The core value of live probiotic solid beverages relies on maintaining the activity of probiotics. However, probiotics are extremely sensitive to external environmental factors such as oxygen, moisture, and high temperatures. During the packaging process, issues such as residual oxygen, high-temperature sealing, and inadequate sealing can easily lead to a significant loss of probiotic activity, severely impacting product quality and shelf life. Currently, many existing probiotic packaging equipment suffer from defects such as incomplete oxygen removal, poor coordination between heat sealing and oxygen removal processes, and easy oxygen backflow after sealing. These shortcomings make it difficult to balance packaging efficiency with the preservation of probiotic activity. Furthermore, some equipment has complex structures, making operation and maintenance inconvenient, and it cannot meet the integrated requirements of precise metering, efficient oxygen removal, and low-temperature sealing in large-scale production.

[0003] For example, the national authorized patent announcement number CN222137215U discloses a solid beverage packaging machine, including a base plate, a support frame fixedly installed on the top of the base plate, a conveyor belt driven on the surface of the support frame, a drive motor fixedly installed on the outer surface of one of the support frames, the output end of the drive motor fixedly connected to the internal rotating shaft of the support frame, a packaging mechanism set at the top of the conveyor belt, and a dust removal mechanism with an air pump set at the top of the packaging mechanism. The dust removal mechanism includes an air pump, the input end of the air pump is connected to a main air inlet pipe and a secondary air inlet pipe, and one end of the secondary air inlet pipe is connected to a suction pipe. This utility model of a solid beverage packaging machine can discharge dust and moisture inside the packaging equipment through the air pump, avoiding interference to the beverage during packaging. At the same time, the heating mechanism can dry the surrounding area of ​​the solid beverage, thereby reducing the impact of the environment on the beverage and extending the storage time of the packaged beverage.

[0004] However, the aforementioned solid beverage packaging machine does not have a dedicated oxygen removal mechanism. Relying solely on a dry environment cannot solve the problem of residual oxygen in the packaging bag causing oxidative damage to probiotics. Probiotics are extremely sensitive to oxygen, and residual oxygen in the bag will directly lead to a rapid decline in the number of live bacteria, making it difficult to meet the long-term preservation requirements of probiotic products. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a live probiotic solid beverage activity preservation packaging machine to solve the problem mentioned in the background art that the solid beverage packaging machine lacks a dedicated oxygen removal structure, resulting in the inability to effectively remove residual oxygen in the bag during probiotic packaging, which in turn causes the live bacteria activity to decline rapidly and the product to have poor long-term freshness.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: A live probiotic solid beverage activity preservation packaging machine includes: a mounting frame, an unwinding column rotatably mounted on the upper surface of the mounting frame, an aluminum-plastic composite bag being wound onto the outer surface of the unwinding column, and the aluminum-plastic composite bag being slidably attached to the surface of an arc-shaped plate by unwinding through multiple sets of transmission columns, all of which are rotatably mounted inside the mounting frame; the arc-shaped plate being fixedly mounted at one end of the mounting frame; a U-shaped frame being fixedly mounted at one end of the arc-shaped plate; and a heat-sealing oxygen-removing mechanism being slidably mounted inside the U-shaped frame.

[0007] Preferably, a motor is fixedly mounted on one end of the mounting frame, and the output shaft of the motor rotates through the mounting frame and is fixedly connected to the unwinding column.

[0008] Preferably, a heat sealing machine is embedded and fixedly installed at one end of the curved plate, and the heat sealing part is flush with the surface of the curved plate and horizontally opposite to the heat sealing oxygen removal mechanism.

[0009] Preferably, the heat-sealing oxygen removal mechanism includes an electric push rod, the piston rod of which slides through into the U-shaped frame and has a cutting tooth fixedly installed at its end, and a heat-pressing rod is fixedly installed in the middle section of the cutting tooth.

[0010] Preferably, the hot press bar protrudes from the cutting teeth and is horizontally opposite to the heat sealing machine.

[0011] Preferably, a guide rod is fixedly installed at one end of the cutting teeth, and the guide rod is slidably installed inside the U-shaped frame and can slide through the U-shaped frame.

[0012] Preferably, a connecting plate is fixedly installed at both ends of the upper surface of the cutting tooth, a sliding rod is fixedly installed at one end of the connecting plate, the sliding rod is slidably installed in the middle section of the inclined groove, the inclined groove is opened at one end of the guide block, the guide block is slidably installed in the guide groove, and the guide groove is opened at the upper surface of the U-shaped frame.

[0013] Preferably, the inclined groove is inclined from top to bottom.

[0014] Preferably, an air inlet pipe is fixedly installed on the upper surface of the guide block, one end of the air inlet pipe is connected to a shovel pipe, and an air hole is opened on the lower surface of the shovel pipe.

[0015] Preferably, a gap is left between the opposite surfaces of the inserting shovel tube and the curved plate to allow the aluminum-plastic composite bag to pass through, and the inserting shovel tube can slide and contact the surface of the aluminum-plastic composite bag.

[0016] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are: Through the transmission and cooperation of the inclined groove and the sliding rod, the linear driving force of the electric push rod is converted into the vertical lifting action of the insertion tube, realizing the precise docking of the oxygen-driving insertion tube with the bag body. Combined with the rapid replacement of residual oxygen in the bag by high-purity nitrogen, and the subsequent heat sealing and cutting integrated operation, it not only greatly reduces the process connection time and the risk of oxygen backflow, but also locks in the activity of probiotics through the tight heat sealing and the high barrier properties of the aluminum-plastic composite bag. At the same time, the overall linkage of the equipment is smooth and the operation is convenient, effectively improving packaging efficiency and product shelf life. Attached Figure Description

[0019] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0020] Please see Figures 1-3 This embodiment provides the following technical solution: like Figures 1-2As shown, a live probiotic solid beverage activity preservation packaging machine includes: a mounting frame 1, with an unwinding column 101 rotatably mounted on the upper surface of the mounting frame 1. An aluminum-plastic composite bag is wound onto the outer surface of the unwinding column 101, and the aluminum-plastic composite bag can be slidably contacted onto the surface of an arc-shaped plate 104 by unwinding through multiple sets of transmission columns 103. The multiple sets of transmission columns 103 are rotatably mounted inside the mounting frame 1. The arc-shaped plate 104 is fixedly mounted at one end of the mounting frame 1, and a U-shaped frame 105 is fixedly mounted at one end of the arc-shaped plate 104. A heat-sealing oxygen-removing mechanism 2 is slidably mounted inside the U-shaped frame 105. A motor 102 is fixedly mounted at one end of the mounting frame 1, and the output shaft of the motor 102 rotatably passes through the mounting frame 1 and is fixedly connected to the unwinding column 101. A heat-sealing machine 106 is embedded and fixedly mounted at one end of the arc-shaped plate 104, and the heat-sealing part is flush with the surface of the arc-shaped plate 104 and horizontally opposite to the heat-sealing oxygen-removing mechanism 2.

[0021] Through the design of the unwinding column 101, motor 102, curved plate 104, U-shaped frame 105, heat sealing machine 106, and heat sealing oxygen removal mechanism 2, the motor 102 drives the unwinding column 101 to rotate after starting, so that the aluminum-plastic composite bag wound on the unwinding column 101 is gradually unwound. The unwound aluminum-plastic composite bag is smoothly conveyed under the guidance of multiple sets of transmission columns 103 and slides against the surface of the curved plate 104. The curved structure of the curved plate 104 realizes the forming guidance of the aluminum-plastic composite bag, so that it forms a bag body outline that fits the packaging. Then the aluminum-plastic composite bag is continuously conveyed to the U-shaped frame 105 at one end of the curved plate 104, at which point the probiotic material is completed. The filled aluminum-plastic composite bag is moved to the corresponding position between the heat-sealing machine 106 and the heat-sealing oxygen-removing mechanism 2. The heat-sealing oxygen-removing mechanism 2 slides closer to the heat-sealing machine 106 within the U-shaped frame 105. During this process, the oxygen removal operation inside the bag is completed first, and then it cooperates with the heat-sealing machine 106 embedded in the curved plate 104 to achieve the sealing of the aluminum-plastic composite bag. The embedded design of the heat-sealing machine 106 and the heat-sealing oxygen-removing mechanism 2 are horizontally aligned to ensure the accuracy of the seal. At the same time, the heat-sealing oxygen-removing mechanism 2 integrates oxygen removal and heat-sealing functions, reducing the process connection time and the amount of residual oxygen inside the bag. Combined with the high barrier properties of the aluminum-plastic composite bag, it effectively maintains the activity of probiotics and improves packaging quality and efficiency. like Figure 3As shown, the heat-sealing oxygen removal mechanism 2 includes an electric push rod 201. The piston rod of the electric push rod 201 slides through the U-shaped frame 105 and has a cutting tooth 202 fixedly installed at its end. A hot-pressing rod 203 is fixedly installed in the middle section of the cutting tooth 202. The hot-pressing rod 203 protrudes from the cutting tooth 202 and is horizontally opposite to the heat-sealing machine 106. A guide rod 204 is fixedly installed at one end of the cutting tooth 202. The guide rod 204 is slidably installed in the U-shaped frame 105 and can slide through the U-shaped frame 105. Connecting plates 209 are fixedly installed at both ends of the upper surface of the cutting tooth 202. A sliding rod 209 is fixedly installed at one end of the connecting plate 209. 10. The sliding rod 210 is slidably installed in the middle section of the inclined groove 206. The inclined groove 206 is opened at one end of the guide block 205. The guide block 205 is slidably installed in the guide groove 107. The guide groove 107 is opened on the upper surface of the U-shaped frame 105. The inclined groove 206 is inclined from top to bottom. An air inlet pipe 207 is fixedly installed on the upper surface of the guide block 205. One end of the air inlet pipe 207 is connected to an insert pipe 208. An air hole is opened on the lower surface of the insert pipe 208. A gap is left between the insert pipe and the opposite surface of the curved plate for the aluminum-plastic composite bag to pass through, and the insert pipe can slide and contact the surface of the aluminum-plastic composite bag.

[0022] Through the design of the electric push rod 201, the cutting tooth 202, the hot pressing rod 203, the guide rod 204, the guide block 205, the inclined groove 206, the air inlet pipe 207, the insert shovel pipe 208, and the sliding rod 210, when the aluminum-plastic composite bag is conveyed to the corresponding position between the heat sealing machine 106 and the heat sealing oxygen removal mechanism 2, the electric push rod 201 is activated. Its piston rod first pulls the cutting tooth 202 to slide into the U-shaped frame 105 through the guide rod 204. During the sliding process, the cutting tooth 202 will also drive the connecting plate 209 on the surface to drive the sliding rod 210 to slide backward in the inclined groove 206 of the guide block 205. The groove 206 is inclined from top to bottom, which causes the sliding rod 210 to slide, driving the guide block 205 to slide vertically downward into the guide groove 107. The vertically sliding guide block 205 then causes the air inlet pipe 207 and the insert tube 208 to slide against the surface of the aluminum-plastic composite bag and be inserted into the bag. At this time, high-purity nitrogen can be introduced into the air inlet pipe 207 through externally connected equipment. The nitrogen is injected into the bag through the air holes on the lower surface of the insert tube 208, quickly replacing the residual oxygen and achieving efficient oxygen removal. After oxygen removal is completed, the electric push rod 201 can be activated to push the cutting teeth 202 to slide towards the heat sealing machine 106. During this process... This allows the sliding rod 210 to slide again within the inclined groove 206, lifting the guide block 205 and causing it to move the insert tube 208 out of the aluminum-plastic composite bag. Subsequently, as the electric push rod 201 continues to push, the heat-pressing rod 203, protruding from the middle section of the cutting tooth 202, first engages with the heat-sealing machine 106 to precisely heat-seal the aluminum-plastic composite bag, ensuring a tight seal. After heat sealing, the cutting tooth 202 continues to move, completing the cutting of the sealed aluminum-plastic composite bag into individually packaged finished products. The electric push rod 201 drives the linkage of the oxygen removal, heat sealing, and cutting processes. Collaborative operation requires no additional power source, simplifies the structure while shortening process connection time, and reduces the risk of oxygen backflow. The cooperation between the inclined groove 206 and the sliding rod 210 ensures precise synchronization between the feeding of the insert tube 208 and the movement of the cutting teeth 202, ensuring accurate nitrogen injection position and improving the thoroughness of oxygen removal. The guide rod 204 ensures the sliding stability of the cutting teeth 202 and the hot pressing rod 203, making the heat sealing and cutting actions precise and controllable, effectively reducing the residual oxygen rate in the bag and the probability of poor sealing. Combined with the high barrier properties of the aluminum-plastic composite bag, it maximizes the preservation of probiotic activity. At the same time, the integrated operation improves packaging efficiency and meets the needs of large-scale production.

[0023] Based on the above technical solution, the working steps of this solution are summarized as follows: After the motor 102 starts, it drives the unwinding column 101 to rotate, causing the aluminum-plastic composite bag wound on the unwinding column 101 to be gradually unwound. After unwinding, the aluminum-plastic composite bag is smoothly conveyed under the guidance of multiple sets of transmission columns 103 and slides against the surface of the curved plate 104. The curved structure of the curved plate 104 realizes the forming guidance of the aluminum-plastic composite bag, so that it forms a bag body outline that fits the packaging. Then the aluminum-plastic composite bag is continuously conveyed to the U-shaped frame 105 at one end of the curved plate 104. At this point, the aluminum-plastic composite bag filled with probiotic material is moved to the corresponding position between the heat sealer 106 and the heat press rod 203. Then, the electric push rod 201 can be activated to first pull the cutting teeth 202 through the piston rod and guide rod 204 into the U-shaped frame 105. During the sliding process, the cutting teeth 202 will also drive the connecting plate 209 on the surface, causing the sliding rod 210 to slide backward in the inclined groove 206 of the guide block 205. Since the inclined groove 206 is inclined from top to bottom, it will cause the sliding rod 210 to slide backward. The sliding motion drives the guide block 205 to slide vertically into the guide groove 107. The vertically sliding guide block 205 then causes the air inlet pipe 207 and the insert pipe 208 to slide against the surface of the aluminum-plastic composite bag and be inserted into the bag. At this time, high-purity nitrogen gas can be introduced into the air inlet pipe 207 through externally connected equipment. The nitrogen gas is injected into the bag through the pores on the lower surface of the insert pipe 208, quickly replacing residual oxygen and achieving efficient oxygen removal. After oxygen removal is completed, the electric push rod 201 can be activated to push the cutting teeth 202 to slide towards the heat sealing machine 106. In the middle, the sliding rod 210 can be driven to slide in the inclined groove 206 again, and the guide block 205 can be lifted again, so that it can drive the insert tube 208 to move out of the aluminum-plastic composite bag. Then, as the electric push rod 201 continues to push, the hot pressure rod 203 protruding from the middle section of the cutting tooth 202 first fits with the heat sealing machine 106 to accurately heat seal the aluminum-plastic composite bag and ensure the tightness of the seal. After the heat sealing is completed, the cutting tooth 202 continues to move to complete the cutting of the sealed aluminum-plastic composite bag, so that it forms an independent packaged finished product.

[0024] In summary: When the electric push rod 201 drives the sliding teeth 202 to slide, the connecting plate 209 drives the sliding rod 210 to slide in the inclined groove 206, which is cleverly transformed into the vertical lifting and lowering of the guide block 205. This enables the precise insertion and removal of the insert tube 208. Combined with the injection of high-purity nitrogen, efficient oxygen removal is achieved, reducing the oxidation loss of probiotics from the source. After oxygen removal, the hot press rod 203 and the heat sealer 106 are precisely fitted to achieve a tight heat seal. Subsequently, the sliding teeth 202 complete the slitting simultaneously, forming an integrated operation of "unwinding-forming-oxygen removal-heat sealing-slitting". There are no complicated disassembly and assembly steps, which greatly shortens the process connection time and improves packaging efficiency.
