Detailed Description

In order to make the above objects, features and advantages of the present invention more comprehensible, embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. In the following description, numerous specific details are set forth in order to provide a thorough understanding of the present invention. The present invention may, however, be embodied in many different forms and should not be construed as limited to the embodiments set forth herein, as those skilled in the art will be able to make similar modifications without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention.

As shown in fig. 1 to 3, in one embodiment, a feeding mechanism 12 is provided, which includes a pushing drive unit, a stick storage member 125 and a rotation output member 121. The rod storage member 125 is used for holding a holding rod, and the rod storage member 125 is provided with a channel 1252 which is axially distributed along the holding rod and penetrates through the rod storage member 125. The pushing drive unit is opposed to an inlet end 1253 of the passage 1252. The rotation output member 121 is provided with a fixing position for fixing the grip rod. The rotation output member 121 is rotatable relative to the rod storage member 125 such that the fixed position is switched between a first position and a second position. When the fixing position is at the first position, the fixing position is opposite to the outlet end of the passage 1252, so that the pushing drive unit can push the grip rod in the passage 1252 to the fixing position. When the holding position is in the second position, the holding rod of the holding position can be inserted into the shaping cavity 113 for extruding the shaped product.

In the feeding mechanism 12 provided by the above-mentioned scheme, the pushing driving element 123 pushes the holding rod in the rod storage element 125 to the fixing position of the rotation output element 121, and then the rotation output element 121 rotates to move the fixing position from the first position to the second position. When the fixing position moves to the second position, the holding rod of the fixing position can be inserted into the shaping cavity 113 for extruding and shaping the product, so that the holding rod can be directly fixed in the product, and the setting efficiency of the holding rod is improved.

Specifically, the fixing position of the rotation output member 121 may include a clamping member, and the holding rod may be fixed to the fixing position by the clamping member. Alternatively, as shown in fig. 1 to 3, the fixing portion includes a rod insertion groove 1211 provided on the rotation output member 121, and a grip rod is inserted into the rod insertion groove 1211 so as to be rotatable along with the rotation output member 121.

Further specifically, as shown in fig. 1 to 3, in one embodiment, the rotation output member 121 includes a rotary disc that rotates about its axis relative to the rod storage member 125. Thereby enabling the fixed position to be switched between the first position and the second position.

Specifically, when the fixed position is switched from the first position to the second position, the rotating direction of the rotating disc is a first steering direction. When the fixed position is switched from the second position to the first position, the rotating direction of the rotating disc is the second steering direction. The first turning direction may be opposite to the second turning direction, that is, after the fixing position is switched from the first position to the second position, and the product is shaped and taken out, if the fixing position is required to return to the first position, the turntable is required to be rotated reversely. Alternatively, as shown in fig. 1 to 3, the first steering and the second steering may be the same. The rotary plate is rotated continuously in the same direction, so that the fixed position is switched between the first position and the second position continuously when rotated in the same direction.

Further specifically, in one embodiment, as shown in fig. 1 to 3, the fixing station includes a rod insertion groove 1211 disposed on an outer circumferential surface of the turntable. The rod insertion groove 1211 is plural, and the plural rod insertion grooves 1211 are arranged at intervals in the circumferential direction of the turntable. Each of the plunger slots 1211 is capable of switching between a first position and a second position during rotation of the rotation output member 121.

Thus, during use, the holding rod can be inserted into more than one of the rod insertion grooves 1211, and when one rod insertion groove 1211 is rotated to the second position, the next rod insertion groove 1211 can have the holding rod inserted therein, ready for the next rotation process. After the holding rod in the rod insertion groove 1211 at the second position is fixed in the product in the fixed cavity 113, the prepared product can be directly taken out of the fixed cavity 113. Or the rotation output member 121 continues to rotate, and the prepared product is rotated out of the fixed cavity 113 while the rod insertion groove 1211, into which the grip rod has been previously prepared to be inserted, is rotated into the second position. The continuous preparation is realized and the processing efficiency is improved by the circulation.

Specifically, as shown in fig. 1 and 2, in one embodiment, the rod insertion grooves 1211 are arranged in a radial direction of the turntable. The axis of the channel 1252 passes through the axis of the turntable, and the axis of the channel 1252 is perpendicular to the axis of the turntable.

When the rotation output member 121 is rotated such that one of the rod insertion grooves 1211 is located at the first position, the rod insertion groove 1211 is opposed to the passage 1252, and the axis of the passage 1252 is collinear with the axis of the rod insertion groove 1211. At this time, the pushing driving unit operates to push the grip rod in the passage 1252 into the rod insertion groove 1211.

Specifically, as shown in fig. 1 and 2, in one embodiment, a flat wand storage space 1251 is provided in the wand storage member 125, and a plurality of the holding wands can be stored in the wand storage space 1251. A plurality of the grip sticks can be placed side by side in the stick storage space 1251. The axial direction of the grip rod placed in the rod storage space 1251 is parallel to the axial direction of the passage 1252, and the rod storage space 1251 communicates with the passage 1252 so that the grip rod in the rod storage space 1251 can enter the passage 1252. When the holding rod in the channel 1252 is pushed into the fixing position, the holding rod in the rod storage space 1251 moves into the channel 1252 to prepare for the next pushing process in advance.

As shown in fig. 1 and 2, the plurality of holding rods in the rod storage space 1251 are arranged side by side in the longitudinal direction, and the axis of the channel 1252 is arranged in the transverse direction. When the grip bar in the lowermost channel 1252 is pushed out, the grip bar in the bar storage space 1251 directly drops into the channel 1252.

Further, as shown in fig. 1 and 2, in one embodiment, the rod storage member 125 includes a bottom plate, two side plates located at two sides of the bottom plate, and two position-limiting strips, and the bottom plate, the side plates, and the position-limiting strips are all arranged along a longitudinal direction. The two limiting strips are respectively connected with the two side plates, and the limiting strips and the bottom plate are arranged at intervals relatively. So that the holding rod can be transversely placed in the rod storage space 1251, and two ends of the holding rod are respectively abutted against the two limiting strips.

Further, as shown in fig. 1 and 2, in one embodiment, the feeding mechanism 12 further includes a first guide member 126. The first guide member 126 is located between the rod storage member 125 and the rotation output member 121, a guide channel 1261 is formed in the first guide member 126, one end of the guide channel 1261 is opposite to the outlet end of the channel 1252, and the other end of the guide channel 1261 can be opposite to a fixed position on the rotation output member 121.

When the rotation output member 121 rotates to a fixed position, the fixed position is opposite to the guide channel 1261. The pushing driving unit operates, and the grip rod in the channel 1252 is pushed out of the channel 1252 through the guide channel 1261 and then inserted into the fixing position. Since the holding rod is of a structure with a long axial length and is easy to shift axially, the first guide 126 is further arranged, and a guide channel 1261 in the first guide 126 is used for providing a guide function for the holding rod, so that the holding rod can be fixed in the fixing position. In particular, when the fixing position is the insertion groove 1211, the alignment accuracy between the grip bar and the insertion groove 1211 directly determines whether the grip bar can be fixed in the insertion groove 1211, and the requirement for the corresponding accuracy is high.

Further, as shown in fig. 1 and 2, in one embodiment, when the gripping bar is inserted into the fixing position, the gripping bar is at least partially positioned in the guide channel 1261, and the section of the gripping bar is the first section 1262 of the guide channel 1261, and the first section 1262 is a strip-shaped groove having an opening facing perpendicular to the gripping bar. So that when the rotation output element 121 is rotated, the grip rod located in the guide channel 1261 can be rotated out of the first section 1262, ensuring that the rotation output element 121 can be rotated smoothly.

Further, as shown in fig. 1 to 3, in one embodiment, the feeding mechanism 12 further includes a rotary driving element 122, and the rotary driving element 122 is connected to the rotary output element 121. The rotary drive element 122 rotates the rotary output element 121. As shown in fig. 2 and 3 in particular, the rotary output element 121 may comprise a motor 1221 and an intermediate gear 1222, the intermediate gear 1222 being connected between the motor 1221 and the rotary output element 121.

Further, in one embodiment, as shown in fig. 1 and 2, the push driving unit includes a push driving member 123 and a push rod 124. The push rod 124 is arranged along the axial direction of the channel 1252, and the push driver 123 is connected with the push rod 124 for inserting the push rod 124 into the channel 1252 so that the holding rod in the channel 1252 is pushed into the fixing position.

Specifically, in one embodiment, the pushing drive 123 includes a hydraulic cylinder, and the telescopic direction of the hydraulic cylinder is parallel to the axial direction of the push rod 124.

Further, in one embodiment, as shown in fig. 1 and 2, the feeding mechanism 12 further includes a second guiding member 127, and the second guiding member 127 is disposed on a side of the rod storage member 125 adjacent to the pushing rod 124. The second guide 127 is provided with a through hole axially disposed along the push rod 124. The push rod 124 is provided with a positioning plate 1241 axially parallel to the push rod 124, the second guide member 127 is provided with a strip-shaped guide notch into which the positioning plate 1241 is inserted, the guide notch extends from the outer surface of the second guide member 127 to the through hole, and a groove 1271 with an inverted-T-shaped cross section is formed on the second guide member 127.

When the push rod 124 moves into the through hole, the positioning plate 1241 gradually moves into the guide notch. The positioning plate 1241 not only improves the stability of the push rod 124, but also the positioning plate 1241 combined with the push rod 124 can move more accurately in the inverted T-shaped groove 1271.

Further, as shown in fig. 4 and 5, in one embodiment, an automatic tea rod molding device 10 is provided, which comprises the feeding mechanism 12 in any one of the above embodiments. The shaping cavity 113 is a space for extruding and shaping tea powder in the automatic rod tea forming equipment 10. In the process of preparing the rod tea, the holding rod can be inserted into the fixed cavity 113 by the feeding mechanism 12, and then the tea powder is introduced into the fixed cavity 113. In the process of extruding the shaped tea powder, the holding rod is synchronously fixed, and the preparation process of the rod tea is completed.

Further, as shown in fig. 4 to 8, the automatic rod tea molding apparatus 10 further includes a first mold 111 and a second mold 112. As shown in fig. 6 to 8, the first mold 111 and the second mold 112 can be opened and closed relatively, and the fixing portion rotates in a first plane between the first mold 111 and the second mold 112 in a separated state during the rotation of the rotation output member 121.

Further, as shown in fig. 8, a first shaping groove and a first limiting groove are formed on the first mold 111, and a second shaping groove 1121 and a second limiting groove 1122 are formed on the second mold 112. When the first mold 111 and the second mold 112 are spliced together, the first shaping groove and the second shaping groove 1121 form the shaping cavity 113, and the first limit groove and the second limit groove 1122 form a jack. The insertion hole is communicated with the fixed cavity 113. When the fixing portion is located at the second position, the fixing portion is opposite to the insertion hole, so that the holding rod of the fixing portion can be inserted into the fixed cavity 113 through the insertion hole.

So that the first mold 111 and the second mold 112 are in a separated state before the rotation output member 121 is rotated to the fixing position where the grip bar is placed at the second position. When this fixed position is moved to the second position, the gripping bar is located between the first mold 111 and the second mold 112. The first mold 111 and the second mold 112 are then merged together, sandwiching the grip bar therebetween. Specifically, after the first mold 111 and the second mold 112 are combined, the holding rod is at least partially located in the cavity 113, and the holding rod penetrates through the insertion hole. Then, the tea powder may be introduced into the molding cavity 113, and the tea powder may be molded by pressing and fixed to fix the grip bar therein to form a bar tea.

According to the automatic rod tea forming equipment 10 provided by the scheme, the feeding mechanism 12 in any embodiment is adopted, so that the holding rod can be automatically fed between the first die 111 and the second die 112 by the feeding mechanism 12. When the first mold 111 and the second mold 112 are spliced together, the holding rod can be inserted into the cavity 113 through the insertion hole at least partially. Then when the shaped tea powder is extruded in the shaped cavity 113, the holding rod can be synchronously fixed in the shaped tea powder, so that the processing efficiency is improved.

Further, in one embodiment, a sidewall of the receptacle is capable of sealing against the grip bar. In other words, when the holding rod is located in the insertion hole, the holding rod blocks the insertion hole, and when tea powder is introduced into the fixed cavity 113, the tea powder does not leak from the insertion hole.

Further, as shown in fig. 6-8, in one embodiment, the automatic rod tea molding apparatus 10 further comprises a die holder base plate 114. The first mold 111 and the second mold 112 are slidably connected to the base plate 114 to realize opening and closing between the first mold 111 and the second mold 112. The die holder base plate 114 provides support for the first die 111 and the second die 112. The support may be direct or indirect via intermediate elements.

When the rotation output member 121 rotates, the fixed holding rod takes a point on an extension line of the axis of the holding rod as a rotation center point, and when the holding rod rotates along with the rotation output member 121, the axis of the holding rod is always located on the first plane in the rotation process. The direction in which the first die 111 and the second die 112 move relative to the die holder base plate 114 is a first direction, and the first direction is perpendicular to the first plane. That is, the direction in which the first mold 111 moves when opening and closing the second mold 112 is perpendicular to the first plane.

Further, as shown in fig. 4 and 5, the first die 111 and the second die 112 are both located on one side of the die holder base plate 114, and the rotation output member 121 is located on the other side of the die holder base plate 114. So that the grip bar fixed on the rotation output member 121 needs to pass through the die holder base plate 114 before being inserted into the sizing die assembly 11.

Based on this, as shown in fig. 6 to 8, the die holder bottom plate 114 is provided with an abdicating hole 1141, so that the fixed holding rod can rotate from one side of the die holder bottom plate 114 to at least partially pass through the abdicating hole 1141 and be located between the first die 111 and the second die 112 in the rotation process of the rotation output member 121.

Specifically, as shown in fig. 6 to 8, in one embodiment, the receding hole 1141 is a long hole, and a length direction of the long hole is parallel to the first plane. The two ends of the elongated hole in the length direction of the elongated hole are respectively a first end and a second end, and when the end of the holding rod rotates to be located in the plane of the die holder bottom plate 114 in the rotation process of the rotation output member 121, the end of the holding rod is located between the first end and the second end of the elongated hole.

In other words, the abdicating hole 1141 for providing abdicating for the holding rod is a long strip, and in the rotating process of the rotating output member 121, when the holding rod rotates to one end located in the plane of the die holder bottom plate 114, the end of the holding rod is located in the long strip hole, so as to ensure that the die holder bottom plate 114 does not obstruct the holding rod from rotating to be inserted into the fixed die cavity 113 along with the rotating output member 121.

Further, in one embodiment, in order to enable the prepared tea sticks to be smoothly rotated out along with the rotation output member 121, the size of the abdicating hole 1141 needs to be large enough to ensure that the tea sticks do not interfere with the die holder bottom plate 114 during the rotation out process. Specifically, when the end of the stick tea, which is far away from the holding rod, is located on the plane of the die holder bottom plate 114 in the process of the stick tea following and rotating out, the end of the stick tea is located in the abdicating hole 1141, so that interference with the die holder bottom plate 114 is avoided.

Further, in one embodiment, as shown in fig. 6-8, the first mold 111 and the second mold 112 when assembled together comprise the sizing mold assembly 11. The automatic tea bar forming apparatus 10 further comprises a first die shoe 115 and a second die shoe 116. The first die holder 115 and the second die holder 116 are arranged oppositely, an installation space for placing the shaping die assembly 11 is defined between the first die holder 115 and the second die holder 116, and the relative distance between the first die holder 115 and the second die holder 116 is adjustable. Therefore, the size of the installation space can be adjusted by adjusting the distance between the first die holder 115 and the second die holder 116, and different types of shaping die assemblies 11 or shaping die assemblies 11 with different shapes of the shaping cavities 113 can be selected, so that the application range of the automatic bar tea molding equipment 10 is widened.

Specifically, as shown in fig. 6 to 8, the first die holder 115 and the second die holder 116 are slidably disposed on the die holder base plate 114, and the first die holder 115 and/or the second die holder 116 slidably adjust a distance therebetween with respect to the die holder base plate 114.

The sliding relationship between the first die 111 and the second die 112 and the die holder base plate 114 can be achieved by two intermediate elements, the first die holder 115 and the second die holder 116. Specifically, the first die 111 is placed on the first die shoe 115, and the second die 112 is placed on the second die shoe 116. When the first die holder 115 and/or the second die holder 116 slide relative to the die holder bottom plate 114 to adjust the distance therebetween, the first die 111 and the second die 112 are synchronously driven to move, so that the switching between the open-close states of the first die 111 and the second die 112 is realized.

Further, as shown in fig. 7, an elastic resetting member 119 is disposed between the first die holder 115 and the second die holder 116. The automatic rod tea forming equipment 10 further comprises a first telescopic driving piece 117 and a second telescopic driving piece 118, and the telescopic directions of the first telescopic driving piece 117 and the second telescopic driving piece 118 are perpendicular to the opening and closing directions of the first die 111 and the second die 112. The first telescopic driving member 117 is provided with a first mold closing member 1171 at its telescopic end, and the second telescopic driving member 118 is provided with a second mold closing member 1181 at its telescopic end.
