Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of food filling and dispensing technology, and more specifically, it relates to an impeller mechanism and a filling dispenser containing the mechanism. Background Technology

[0002] In the food industry, filling dispensers are widely used for the quantitative packaging and conveying of liquid foods such as sauces and pastes. Their core conveying component is typically an impeller mechanism, which generates thrust through the rotation of the impeller, transporting the food material along a designated path and completing the filling process.

[0003] Currently, most filling dispensers on the market use a fixed impeller structure, meaning the inclination angle and cross-sectional area of ​​the impeller blades are not adjustable. While this type of fixed impeller is simple in structure and low in manufacturing cost, it presents certain limitations when handling liquid foods of varying viscosities. When conveying high-viscosity foods, a fixed impeller may lead to excessive flow resistance and pipeline blockage; while when conveying low-viscosity foods, it can easily cause inaccurate flow control and reduced filling accuracy.

[0004] Therefore, there is an urgent need in the field for an impeller mechanism that can freely adjust the impeller angle and its cross-sectional area to adapt to foods with different viscosity. Utility Model Content

[0005] In view of the shortcomings of the existing technology, the purpose of this utility model is to provide an impeller mechanism and a filling dispenser containing the impeller mechanism that can freely adjust the impeller angle and its cross-sectional area to adapt to foods with different viscosity.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: An impeller mechanism includes a rotor and an impeller rotatably mounted on the outer peripheral side of the rotor; a receiving cavity formed inside the rotor; an adjusting assembly rotatably disposed within the receiving cavity and drivenly connected to the impeller; a push rod slidably disposed on the side wall of the impeller and abutting against the adjusting assembly; and a telescopic assembly slidably disposed inside the impeller and drivenly connected to the adjusting assembly via the push rod.

[0012] The present invention is further configured such that: the adjusting assembly further includes an annular cam fixed to the surface of the driving bevel gear; the annular cam abuts against the push rod.

[0013] The present invention is further configured such that: a push plate is fixed to the other opposite end of the push rod; the push plate is in movable contact with the telescopic plate; a return spring is fixedly connected to the surface of the push plate and sleeved on the surface of the push rod; and the other end of the return spring is fixedly connected to the side wall of the slide groove.

[0028] Example 1 Please see Figure 2-5 The present invention provides the following technical solution: Specifically, it refers to an impeller mechanism, including a rotor 1 and an impeller 2 rotatably mounted on the outer peripheral side of the rotor 1; a receiving cavity 3, opened inside the rotor 1; an adjusting component 4, rotatably disposed in the receiving cavity 3 and drivenly connected to the impeller 2; a push rod 5, slidably disposed on the side wall of the impeller 2 and abutting against the adjusting component 4; and a telescopic component 6, slidably disposed inside the impeller 2 and drivenly connected to the adjusting component 4 through the push rod 5.

[0029] The rotor 1 has a plurality of rotating holes evenly distributed on its outer circumferential side; an impeller 2 is rotatably disposed in each of the rotating holes.

[0030] The adjustment assembly 4 includes a driving bevel gear 41 rotatably disposed in the receiving cavity 3; a driven bevel gear 7 is fixed at the end of the impeller 2; the driving bevel gear 41 meshes with each of the driven bevel gears 7.

[0031] The specific application of this embodiment is as follows: when switching between conveying different materials, rotating the adjusting component 4 causes the driving bevel gear 41 to rotate, thereby driving the corresponding driven bevel gear 7 to rotate, thus realizing the angle adjustment of the impeller 2. This embodiment, by setting the adjusting component 4 and the driven bevel gear 7, enables the impeller 2 to rotate when the adjusting component 4 rotates, achieving different angle adjustments. This allows the impeller 2 to adapt to filling foods of different viscosities, improving the applicability of the equipment.

[0032] Example 2 Please see Figure 2-5 This second embodiment is an improvement on the first embodiment as follows: Specifically, a groove 8 is provided through the surface of the impeller 2; a telescopic component 6 is slidably arranged in the groove 8.

[0033] The telescopic assembly 6 includes telescopic plates 61 symmetrically slidably disposed within the slide groove 8; a support plate 62 is fixed to the side wall of the slide groove 8; and a connecting spring 63 is fixed to both sides of the support plate 62 and is fixedly connected to the corresponding telescopic plate 61.

[0034] The driven bevel gear 7 has a through hole on its surface that communicates with the slide groove 8; a push rod 5 is slidably disposed in the through hole.

[0035] The adjustment assembly 4 also includes an annular cam 42 fixed to the surface of the drive bevel gear 41; the annular cam 42 abuts against the push rod 5.

[0036] A push plate 9 is fixed to the other opposite end of the push rod 5; the push plate 9 is in movable contact with the telescopic plate 61; a return spring 10 is fixedly connected to the surface of the push plate 9 and sleeved on the surface of the push rod 5; the other end of the return spring 10 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the slide groove 8.

[0037] A drive motor is fixed to the side of the rotor 1; the output end of the drive motor is fixedly connected to the active bevel gear 41.

[0038] A specific application of this embodiment is as follows: This embodiment makes the following improvements based on Embodiment 1. While the driving bevel gear 41 rotates, the annular cam 42 fixed to its end face rotates synchronously. The lift profile of the annular cam 42 presses against the push rod 5, overcoming the elastic force of the return spring 10, and pushes the push rod 5 to slide along the through hole towards the impeller 2. This causes the push plate 9 to move, pressing against and squeezing the telescopic plates 61 on both sides, causing the telescopic plates 61 to overcome the elastic force of the connecting spring 63 and move away from the support plate 62 along the slide groove 8, thereby increasing the effective cross-sectional area of ​​the impeller 2. Conversely, when the driving bevel gear 41 drives the annular cam 42 to the return section of the profile, the push rod 5 is pushed back under the reset force of the return spring 10, releasing its pressure on the telescopic plates 61. At this time, the elastic force of the connecting spring 63 causes the telescopic plates 61 on both sides to slide towards the support plate 62, thereby reducing the cross-sectional area of ​​the impeller 2. This embodiment, by setting the adjustment component 4, push rod 5 and telescopic component 6, realizes the increase or decrease of the cross-sectional area of ​​impeller 2 while adjusting the angle, thereby preventing food from being blocked during the conveying process and improving the stability of equipment operation.

[0039] Example 3 Please see Figure 1 This third embodiment is an improvement on the second embodiment, specifically: a filling dispenser includes the impeller mechanism described above, and the mechanism is evenly distributed in a linear array inside the dispenser; a plurality of filling ports are evenly opened on the outer peripheral side of the dispenser; secondary diversion channels are radially symmetrically arranged on the outer peripheral side of the dispenser; a primary diversion channel is connected to each of the secondary diversion channels; a main channel is connected to each of the primary diversion channels; and the main channel is fixedly connected to an external filling machine.

[0040] A specific application of this embodiment is as follows: when the external filling machine transports materials to the main channel 11, the materials flow into the main channel 11 and pass through the primary diversion channel 12 and the secondary diversion channel 13 in sequence, and then enter the distributor 14. After being distributed by the impeller 2 in the distributor 14, the materials flow out from the filling port 15, thereby realizing the filling of food.
