Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of ice cream production equipment, and in particular to an anti-deviation automatic roller insertion mechanism. Background Technology

[0002] The ice cream stick insertion process is a step in ice cream production to fix the handheld parts. It requires selecting a food-grade wooden stick of appropriate length, ensuring that the surface is smooth and free of burrs, and using mechanical equipment to align it with the central axis of the ice cream blank and insert it to a depth of about two-thirds with appropriate force, so as to prevent it from falling off and avoid puncturing the bottom. For example, the existing Chinese utility model patent with announcement number CN211794136U, entitled "An Ice Cream Stick Insertion Device," includes a base fixed on a frame, a rotating shaft on the base, a turntable and a rotating block on the rotating shaft, an arc-shaped groove on the turntable, a locking device inside the arc-shaped groove, a connecting block one fixedly connected to the rotating block, a connecting shaft on the connecting block one, a discharge groove fixedly connected to the connecting shaft, a connecting block two on the side of the discharge groove, a push rod at the tail of the discharge groove, a cylinder connected to the end of the push rod, and a material box above the discharge groove. Therefore, although this application can realize the automatic insertion of ice cream sticks, in the process of assembly line operation, it can only perform the insertion operation on a single ice cream stick at a time, and cannot cooperate with the insertion operation on multi-groove ice cream molds. Moreover, the material box has a limited storage capacity at a time. If the storage capacity needs to be increased, the overall height of the material box needs to be increased. However, once the height of the material box is significantly increased, it is not conducive to the replenishment of ice cream sticks. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this utility model is to provide an anti-deviation automatic popsicle stick insertion mechanism. The front plate of the fixed plate is equipped with multiple vertically movable push rods, and there are push blocks on the rear side of the push rods. The mechanism moves synchronously with the cylinder, push plate, and connecting block. Under the action of the feeding plate, push rod, top plate, and compression spring, the popsicle sticks are pushed into the feeding trough. The push blocks are pushed down and inserted into the popsicle. The top plate is equipped with an operating handle and a retaining plate for easy replenishment. This mechanism can effectively solve the problems in the background art.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows: An anti-deviation automatic inserting mechanism includes an equipment frame and a protective box. Both the equipment frame and the protective box are fixedly installed on an ice cream filling and conveying equipment. A fixed plate is fixedly installed inside the equipment frame. A carrier plate is fixedly installed on the front side of the fixed plate. Multiple push grooves are opened on the front side of the carrier plate. Push rods are movably installed in the push grooves. Multiple feeding trays are fixedly installed on the rear side of the equipment frame. A push rod is provided in the feeding tray.

[0005] As a further preferred embodiment of this utility model, a feeding groove is provided on the rear side of the push groove, and a feeding port is provided in the feeding groove. Mounting grooves are provided on both sides of the push groove. A limiting plate is fixedly installed in the mounting groove. A limiting plate is fixedly installed on each side of the push groove, which allows the push rod to move vertically in the push groove. The feeding groove allows the ice cream stick to pass through the feeding port and abut against the front side of the feeding groove.

[0006] As a further preferred embodiment of this utility model, the push rod has a T-shaped cross-section, and a push block is fixedly installed on the rear side of the push rod. The push rod is inserted into the push groove, and the push block is inserted into the feeding groove through the push rod. The push rod moves vertically and radially in the push groove, which can drive the push block to move synchronously. Thus, when the push block moves downward, it pushes the ice cream stick placed in the feeding groove downward and inserts it into the ice cream in the mold.

[0007] As a further preferred embodiment of this utility model, bushings are fixedly installed on the mounting platforms located on both sides of the cylinder. Two guide shafts are fixedly installed on the top of the push plate, and the top of the guide shafts are inserted into the corresponding bushings. Multiple connecting blocks are fixedly installed on the rear side of the push plate, and the rear side of the connecting blocks is fixedly connected to the corresponding push rods. A push plate is provided at the output end of the cylinder, and the push plate is connected to multiple push rods through multiple connecting blocks, so that multiple push rods can be pushed and pulled simultaneously with the help of the cylinder.

[0008] As a further preferred embodiment of this utility model, the longitudinal section of the feeding tray is U-shaped, and multiple slots are provided on one side of the top of the feeding tray. Positioning slope panels are fixedly installed on both sides of the feeding tray near the feeding port. After a batch of ice cream sticks are stacked in the feeding tray, the ice cream sticks can be guided by the two positioning slope panels and enter the feeding port as the top plate is pushed, so that the ice cream sticks with the outermost end closest to the feeding trough abut against the feeding trough.

[0009] As a further preferred embodiment of this utility model, the end of the push rod away from the top plate is inserted into the protective box and secured with a retaining spring. After inserting one end of the push rod into the protective box, the maximum movement of the top plate in the feed tray can be adjusted by adjusting the retaining spring. The push rod located between the top plate and the protective box is also fitted with a compression spring. The compression spring fitted on the outside of the push rod provides power support for the top plate to push the ice cream stick.

[0010] As a further preferred embodiment of this utility model, a rotating shaft is provided in the top plate, and a clamping plate is fixedly installed at one end of the operating handle. The rotating shaft is fixedly installed on the side of the clamping plate opposite to the operating handle. The rotating shaft is rotatably installed in the countersunk hole. The operating handle, in conjunction with the rotating shaft, can push and pull the top plate, thereby facilitating the addition of ice cream sticks to the feeding tray. The rotatable clamping plate, in conjunction with the slot on one side of the top of the feeding tray, can limit the top plate, thereby facilitating the placement of ice cream sticks into the feeding tray.

[0011] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects: In this invention, a carrier plate is provided on the front side of the fixed plate, and multiple vertically movable push rods are movably installed on the front side of the carrier plate.

[0014] To make the technical means, creative features, objectives and effects of this utility model easier to understand, the present utility model will be further described below in conjunction with specific embodiments.

[0015] like Figures 1-7 As shown, the present invention provides an anti-deviation automatic inserting mechanism, including an equipment frame 1 and a protective box 2. The equipment frame 1 and the protective box 2 are both fixedly installed on an ice cream filling and conveying equipment. A fixing plate 3 is fixedly installed inside the equipment frame 1. A carrier plate 4 is fixedly installed on the front side of the fixing plate 3. Multiple push grooves 5 are opened on the front side of the carrier plate 4. Push rods 6 are movably installed in the push grooves 5. Multiple feeding trays 7 are fixedly installed on the rear side of the equipment frame 1. A top rod 8 is provided in the feeding tray 7. One end of the top rod 8 is fixedly installed with a top plate 9 and slidably connected in the feeding tray 7. The other end of the top rod 8 is inserted into the protective box 2. An operating handle 10 is movably installed on the rear side of the top plate 9. An installation platform 11 is fixedly installed on the top of the fixing plate 3. A cylinder 12 is fixedly installed in the middle of the top of the installation platform 11. The cylinder 12 is connected to an external air pump through an air pipe. A push plate 13 is fixedly installed on the output end of the cylinder 12. The push plate 13 is also located in front of the carrier plate 4.

[0016] like Figure 1 , Figures 3-5As shown, a feeding groove 14 is provided on the rear side of the push groove 5, and a feeding port 15 is provided in the feeding groove 14. Mounting grooves 16 are provided on both sides of the push groove 5, and limiting plates 17 are fixedly installed in the mounting grooves 16. A limiting plate 17 is fixedly installed on each side of the push groove 5, allowing the push rod 6 to move vertically within the push groove 5. The feeding groove 14 allows the ice cream stick to pass through the feeding port 15 and abut against the front side of the feeding groove 14. The push rod 6 has a T-shaped cross-section, and a push block 18 is fixedly installed on the rear side of the push rod 6. The push rod 6 is inserted into the push groove 5, and the push block 18 is inserted into the feeding groove 14 via the push rod 6. The push rod 6 moves vertically and radially within the push groove 5, which can drive the push block. The pusher 18 moves synchronously, so that when it moves downward, it pushes the ice cream stick placed in the feeding groove 14 downward and inserts it into the ice cream in the mold. The mounting platform 11 located on both sides of the cylinder 12 is fixedly installed with bushings 23. Two guide shafts 24 are fixedly installed on the top of the pusher plate 13. The top of the guide shafts 24 are inserted into the corresponding bushings 23. Multiple connecting blocks 25 are fixedly installed on the rear side of the pusher plate 13. The rear side of the connecting blocks 25 is fixedly connected to the corresponding push rods 6. A pusher plate 13 is set at the output end of the cylinder 12. The pusher plate 13 is connected to multiple push rods 6 through multiple connecting blocks 25, so that multiple push rods 6 can be pushed and pulled synchronously with the help of the cylinder 12.

[0017] like Figure 2 , Figures 6-7 As shown, the longitudinal section of the feeding tray 7 is U-shaped. Multiple slots 19 are provided on one side of the top of the feeding tray 7. Positioning ramps 26 are fixedly installed on both sides of the feeding tray 7 near the feeding inlet 15. After a batch of ice cream sticks are stacked in the feeding tray 7, the top plate 9 pushes the ice cream sticks, guiding them through the two positioning ramps 26 into the feeding inlet 15. The ice cream sticks closest to the discharge trough 14 then abut against the discharge trough 14. The end of the push rod 8 away from the top plate 9 is inserted into the protective box 2 and secured with a retaining spring. After inserting one end of the push rod 8 into the protective box 2, the maximum position of the top plate 9 within the feeding tray 7 can be adjusted by adjusting the retaining spring. During the movement process, the top rod 8 located between the top plate 9 and the protective box 2 is also fitted with a compression spring. The compression spring fitted on the outside of the top rod 8 provides power support for the top plate 9 to push the ice cream sticks. A rotating shaft 22 is opened in the top plate 9. A clamping plate 21 is fixedly installed at one end of the operating handle 10. The rotating shaft 22 is fixedly installed on the side of the clamping plate 21 opposite to the operating handle 10. The rotating shaft 22 is rotatably installed in the countersunk hole 20. The operating handle 10 and the rotating shaft 22 can push and pull the top plate 9, which makes it easy to add ice cream sticks to the feeding tray 7. The rotatable clamping plate 21 and the clamping groove 19 on the top side of the feeding tray 7 can limit the top plate 9, which makes it easy to put the ice cream sticks into the feeding tray 7.

[0018] It should be noted that this utility model is an anti-deviation automatic insertion mechanism. The equipment frame 1 and the protective box 2 are fixed on the filling and conveying equipment. When the conveying equipment moves the mold containing ice cream to a position below the carrier plate 4, the external main controller starts the cylinder 12. The output end of the cylinder 12 pushes the push plate 13 downward. Then, the push plate 13 pushes multiple push rods 6 downward in the corresponding push grooves 5 through multiple connecting blocks 25. Then, the push block 18 on the rear side of the push rod 6 pushes the ice cream stick placed in the feeding groove 14 downward along the path of the feeding groove 14, thereby ensuring the accuracy of the ice cream stick being inserted into the ice cream. After the push block 18 pushes the ice cream stick in the feeding groove 14 downward and inserts it into the ice cream, the rear side of the push block 18 blocks the feeding port 15, thereby preventing the ice cream stick in the feeding tray 7 from entering through the feeding port 15. The ice cream rolls are fed into the feeding trough 14. Then, the output end of the cylinder 12 retracts and the push plate 13 moves upward. The push plate 13 then drives multiple push rods 6 to move upward in the corresponding push groove 5 through multiple connecting blocks 25. The push rods 6 drive the push block 18 to move upward in the feeding trough 14, and the push block 18 moves to the position above the feed inlet 15. Then, the compression spring on the outside of the push rod 8 pushes the top plate 9 towards the fixed plate 3 by the thickness of an ice cream stick. This pushes the ice cream stick that has entered the push groove 5 and is closest to the feeding trough 14 into the feeding trough 14 and abuts against the front side wall of the feeding trough 14. Then, when the filling and conveying equipment moves the next set of ice cream molds to the position below the carrier plate 4, the operation of the cylinder 12, the push plate 13 and the mounting groove 16 is the same as described above, so that the automatic operation of the ice cream stick can be realized. When replenishing ice cream sticks in the feed tray 7, the operator can hold the operating handle 10 and pull the top plate 9 to one side through the operating handle 10 and the rotating shaft 22. Then, the top plate 9 drives the push rod 8 to move in the through hole on one side of the protective box 2 and compresses the compression spring on the outside of the push rod 8 towards the protective box 2. Then, rotate the operating handle 10 ninety degrees so that the operating handle 10 rotates around the rotating shaft 22 as the axis, and the side of the clamping plate 21 is inserted into the corresponding clamping groove 19, thereby restricting the position of the top plate 9. Then, arrange the ice cream sticks and put them into the feed tray 7. Continue to hold the ice cream sticks with one hand, and when the other hand rotates the operating handle 10 in the opposite direction, the operating handle 10 drives the side of the clamping plate 21 to disengage from the clamping groove 19. Gradually release the operating handle 10, and the pressure of the compression spring on the outside of the push rod 8 will apply pressure to the top plate 9, so that the top plate 9 continues to press and push the ice cream sticks in the feed tray 7.
