Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of refrigeration equipment technology, and more specifically, to a fabric device for a quick-freezing machine. Background Technology

[0002] A quick-freezing machine is an industrial freezing equipment commonly used in the food processing industry. Quick-freezing machines rely on conveyor belts to gradually cool food, forming frozen products. The conveyor belts of quick-freezing machines have a large width. In actual use, if the food can be evenly arranged across the entire width of the conveyor belt during feeding, both the conveying volume and freezing quality will be greatly improved. This operation is known as food feeding. Achieving feeding according to the width of the conveyor belt is an operational challenge. While manual feeding is direct and easy to learn, it involves high labor intensity and is unsuitable for mass production. Therefore, companies need to design a mechanized feeding device to meet the requirements of quick-freezing machines, hence this case study. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art and provide a feeding device for a quick-freezing machine. This invention uses the rotation of a rotator to quantitatively carry food from the raw material bin into the feeding chamber. The food is released as the feeding chamber rotates to the feeding funnel position. This invention designs the length of the feeding chamber to match the width of the conveyor belt of the quick-freezing machine. Since the food is fully packed in the feeding chamber, the released food can be evenly distributed across the width of the conveyor belt.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0005] A fabric feeding device for a quick-freezing machine includes a raw material silo and a fabric feeding mechanism. The top of the raw material silo is open, and food raw materials are pre-stored inside the raw material silo. The fabric feeding mechanism includes a rotatably mounted rotary device. A plurality of fabric feeding cavities are evenly distributed on the outer circumference of the rotary device. An inlet and an outlet are provided along the rotation direction of the rotary device. The inlet is connected to the bottom of the raw material silo, and a fabric feeding funnel is installed at the outlet. The fabric feeding cavities pass through the inlet and outlet during rotation.

[0006] Furthermore, the fabric feeding mechanism also includes a roller housing, with the inlet and outlet opening through the outer wall of the roller housing.

[0007] Furthermore, the rotator includes a main shaft and partition plates. The main shaft is rotatably mounted inside the drum housing. A motor assembly is mounted on the outer side of the end of the drum housing. The main shaft is connected to the motor assembly in a transmission manner. Several partition plates are evenly distributed around the outer wall of the main shaft, and a fabric cavity is formed between two adjacent partition plates.

[0008] Furthermore, a sealing seat is formed between two adjacent partition plates, which prevents food ingredients from entering, and the sealing seat is arranged alternately with the fabric cavity.

[0009] Furthermore, the outer end of the partition plate contacts the outer shell of the roller, and the outer end of the partition plate is rounded.

[0010] Furthermore, each start-up of the motor assembly causes the rotator to rotate by the angle of the sealing seat plus the fabric cavity.

[0011] Furthermore, the fabric cavity is filled with a filler, the height of which determines the food capacity of the fabric cavity.

[0012] Furthermore, the raw material silo is equipped with an inclined material collection slope, the low point of which faces the inlet.

[0013] Furthermore, several support legs are fixedly installed on the bottom surface of the raw material silo, and a counterweight is fixedly installed on the bottom surface of the raw material silo.

[0014] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0015] This invention is reasonably designed. It uses the rotation of a rotary device to quantitatively carry food from the raw material hopper into the cloth chamber. The food is released as the cloth chamber rotates to the cloth funnel position. The length of the cloth chamber is designed to match the width of the conveyor belt of the quick-freezing machine. Since the food is fully packed in the cloth chamber, the released food can evenly cover the width of the conveyor belt. This invention has the advantages of convenient operation and good practical effect. Attached Figure Description

[0020] 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.

[0021] like Figures 1-3 The illustrated material feeding device for a quick-freezing machine includes a raw material hopper 1 and a material feeding mechanism 2. The raw material hopper 1 has an open top for storing food raw materials. The raw material hopper 1 is pre-filled with food raw materials and needs to be replenished as needed until a batch is completed. The material feeding mechanism 2 includes a rotatable rotor 21. Several material feeding cavities 211 are evenly distributed on the outer circumference of the rotor 21. An inlet 22 and an outlet 23 are provided along the rotation direction of the rotor 21. The inlet 22 is connected to the bottom of the raw material hopper 1, and a material feeding funnel 3 is installed at the outlet 23. During rotation, the material feeding cavities 211 pass through the inlet 22 and outlet 23. When the material feeding cavity 211 rotates and stops at the inlet 22, the material inside the raw material hopper 1... Food ingredients fall and fill the cloth cavity 211. When the cloth cavity 211 carrying the food ingredients rotates to the discharge port 23, the food ingredients in the cloth cavity 211 are naturally discharged along the cloth funnel 3. The cloth funnel 3 is designed with an incline and has an open bottom to facilitate the discharge of food ingredients. The length of the cloth cavity 211 and the cloth funnel 3 is adapted to the width of the quick-freezing machine conveyor belt. The quick-freezing machine conveyor belt is set below the outlet of the cloth funnel 3. The food ingredients discharged from the cloth funnel 3 fall exactly on the surface of the quick-freezing machine conveyor belt below and can be evenly distributed along the width direction. This is beneficial to improving the processing capacity and freezing quality of the quick-freezing machine (even distribution of food, without stacking together, can improve the freezing effect of individual food ingredients).

[0022] like Figure 2 As shown, the fabric feeding mechanism 2 also includes a roller shell 24, which is fitted on the outside of the rotator 21. The feed inlet 22 and the discharge outlet 23 are connected to each other on the outer wall of the roller shell 24. The feed inlet 22 is the docking point between the raw material bin 1 and the roller shell 24, and the discharge outlet 23 is the docking point between the roller shell 24 and the fabric feeding funnel 3.

[0023] like Figure 2As shown, the rotator 21 includes a main shaft 212 and partition plates 213. The main shaft 212 is rotatably mounted inside the drum housing 24. A motor assembly 215 is installed on one end of the drum housing 24 along its length. The main shaft 212 is connected to the motor assembly 215, and the main shaft 212 is rotated by the motor assembly 215. Several partition plates 213 are evenly distributed around the outer wall of the main shaft 212. A feeding cavity 211 is formed between two adjacent partition plates 213, and a sealing seat 214 is also formed between two adjacent partition plates 213. The sealing seat 214 adopts a full-cavity filling design, and food raw materials cannot enter the sealing seat 214. The sealing seat 214 and the feeding cavity 211 are arranged alternately. This design is to separate adjacent feeding cavities 211 with a large spacing to prevent the rotation process. In the event of raw materials entering or exiting normally, the sizes of the inlet 22 and outlet 23 match the size of the feeding chamber 211. Initially, one feeding chamber 211 is directly opposite the inlet 22, and the other feeding chamber 211 is directly opposite the outlet 23. The motor assembly 215 uses a stepper motor with an integrated reducer. The motor assembly 215 starts intermittently, each time driving the rotator 21 to rotate by the angle of one sealing seat 214 plus one feeding chamber 211. After rotating, it stays for a period of time to complete the filling and unloading of one feeding chamber 211. The rotation frequency of the rotator 21 is adapted to the travel speed of the quick-freezing machine conveyor belt. The surface of the quick-freezing machine conveyor belt will have grid grooves. Each rotation of the rotator 21 must ensure that a row of food raw materials enters the corresponding grid groove.

[0024] like Figure 2 As shown, the outer end of the partition plate 213 contacts the outer shell of the roller 24. The outer end of the partition plate 213 is set as a round head 2131. The round head 2131 can reduce the frictional resistance during rotation and protect the food surface when it collides with food raw materials, so as to reduce the damage to the food.

[0025] In quick-freezing equipment, the amount of food added to each grid compartment should also be controlled. Too much food piled up will affect the freezing effect; ideally, it should be a thin layer. This control of the food layer can be achieved in this invention. Figure 2 As shown, this utility model designs and installs a filler 2111 inside the fabric cavity 211. The filler 2111 is fixed close to the main shaft 212. When the filler 2111 is installed, the internal space of the fabric cavity 211 is partially occupied. The food capacity of the fabric cavity 211 is determined by the height of the filler 2111. In this way, the amount of food that the fabric cavity 211 can fill and release each time is fixed to meet the needs of subsequent freezing operations.

[0026] like Figure 2As shown, an inclined collecting ramp 11 is installed inside the raw material silo 1, with its lowest point facing the inlet 22. This ensures that all food ingredients in the raw material silo 1 are concentrated towards the inlet 22, guaranteeing sufficient loading of the material distribution chamber 211. Figure 1 As shown, this utility model has several support legs 12 fixedly installed on the bottom surface of the raw material silo 1. The support legs 12 facilitate the installation and connection of this utility model to the quick-freezing equipment. Since the material feeding mechanism 2 and the material feeding funnel 3 are on the side of the raw material silo 1, in order to prevent the raw material silo 1 from having a tendency to tip over, this utility model has a counterweight block 13 fixedly installed on the bottom surface of the raw material silo 1 to balance the center of gravity of the equipment.

[0027] This invention has good practical effects and can significantly reduce manual labor (workers only need to operate mechanical equipment to lift and transport food raw materials to replenish raw material bin 1). This invention is more suitable for the fabrication of granular food, round or oval food.

[0028] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model. The protection scope of this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. All technical solutions falling within the scope of this utility model's concept are protected. It should be noted that for those skilled in the art, any improvements and modifications made without departing from the principle of this utility model should also be considered within the protection scope of this utility model.
