In the production of food products with fillings, it is necessary to use a filling machine to add the filling to the product. In the related art, the skin filling machine is used for containing filling materials through a hopper provided with a discharge hole, a screw is arranged below the hopper, the filling materials in the hopper are tightly attached to the screw under the action of self gravity, at the moment, the rotation of the screw can extrude and push the filling materials to move towards the extending direction of the screw, and the discharge hole is arranged at the position, close to the tail end of the screw, on the hopper, so that the filling materials can be pushed out from the discharge hole and filled on a product. However, because the stuffing has viscosity and is extremely easy to agglomerate, when the screw rotates, the stuffing which does not enter the threaded part of the screw is easily accumulated above the discharge hole and then turns backwards, the acting force of the stuffing on the screw is reduced along with the continuous reduction of the stuffing in the hopper, the stuffing cannot be continuously adhered to the screw, the rate of discharging the stuffing out of the discharge hole is uneven, and the filling amount of each product cannot be accurately controlled, so that the quality of the product is affected. In production, manual compaction of the filling is usually used when this occurs, but this operation requires the human hand or hand tool to approach the running screw, with a great safety hazard.

Based on this, the application discloses a hopper device added with a gravity roller, comprising: the hopper body, at least one screw rod, gravity gyro wheel. The hopper body is equipped with feed inlet and discharge gate, and the top of hopper body is located to the feed inlet, and the feed inlet sets up with the discharge gate is angled, and the discharge gate is used for supplying filling material ejection of compact, and the screw rod extends along the ejection of compact direction of hopper body and sets up, and the screw rod is connected to the actuating source to drive filling material along ejection of compact direction motion under the drive effect of actuating source. The gravity gyro wheel sets up in the hopper body, and is located between feed inlet and the screw rod. The gravity roller is spaced from the screw. The gravity roller is used for compacting the stuffing when the screw drives the stuffing to move along the discharge hole. The gravity roller prevents the stuffing from rolling over in the process of moving to the discharge hole, and simultaneously, the gravity roller can continuously apply pressure to the stuffing, so that the stuffing clings to the screw rod, and the stuffing can be uniformly discharged out of the discharge hole.

The technical scheme of the utility model will be further described with reference to the examples and the accompanying drawings.

Referring to fig. 1 and 2, a hopper device with a gravity roller according to an embodiment of the application includes: hopper body 1, screw rod 2 and gravity gyro wheel 3. The hopper body 1 is provided with a feed inlet 11 and a discharge outlet 12, the feed inlet 11 and the discharge outlet 12 are arranged at an angle, the screw 2 can be arranged to be at least one, and the screw extends along the discharge direction Y of the hopper body 1. The screw rod 2 includes body of rod 21 and screw thread portion 22, and wherein body of rod 21 is connected to the drive source, and gravity gyro wheel 3 sets up in hopper body 1, and just closes on discharge gate 12 setting, and gravity gyro wheel 3 is closer to the top of hopper body 1 than screw rod 2, and has the interval between gravity gyro wheel 3 and the screw rod 2, and gravity gyro wheel 3 can follow first direction Z relative hopper body 1 free slip.

When the hopper device with the gravity roller is used, stuffing is fed from the feeding hole 11, the screw rod 2 rotates, and the threaded part 22 drives the stuffing to be extruded into the space between the gravity roller 3 and the screw rod 2 and move towards the discharging hole 12. The stuffing at the discharge hole 12 cannot be accumulated and rolled due to the blocking of the gravity roller 3. Meanwhile, due to the gravity action of the gravity roller 3, no matter how much stuffing is left, stuffing between the gravity roller 3 and the screw 2 can be tightly pressed by the gravity roller 3 to be tightly attached to the screw 2, so that stuffing can be uniformly discharged from the discharge hole 12, the stuffing filling amount on each product can be accurately controlled, and the quality of the product is improved.

Referring to fig. 1 to 3, in some embodiments, the number of the screws 2 may be plural, two adjacent screws 2 are spaced apart, the screw threads 22 are opposite in rotation direction, and each screw 2 is driven by a different driving source, and the two adjacent screws 2 are opposite in rotation direction to drive the filling to move toward the discharge hole 12. Illustratively, the number of the screws 2 is two, the rotation direction of the screw thread portion 22 of one screw 2 is right-handed, the rotation direction of the screw thread portion 22 of the other screw 2 is left-handed, and the two screws 2 are rotated in opposite directions under the action of different driving sources, respectively. The plurality of screws 2 drive the stuffing to move together, so that the efficiency can be improved. The stuffing can be prevented from staying between the screw 2 and the hopper body 1 by contacting the stuffing with a plurality of screws.

Optionally, a carrying tray 135 may be provided at the bottom of the hopper body 1. In the first direction Z, the carrier plate 135 is located below the screw 2 and is disposed in correspondence of the screw 2. In this way, the scattered stuffing will fall on the carrying tray 135, which can avoid the stuffing polluting the working environment and is convenient to clean. For example, the number of the carrying trays 135 may correspond to the number of the screws 2, for example, when the screws 2 are two, the carrying trays 135 may be two, respectively, located below the corresponding screws 2 to receive the fillings scattered from the corresponding screws 2.

Referring to fig. 2 to 5, in some embodiments, the hopper body 1 may further include a first guiding portion 13, where the first guiding portion 13 is disposed along a first direction Z, and the gravity roller 3 is correspondingly provided with a second guiding portion 31, and the first guiding portion 13 is slidably connected to the second guiding portion 31. The first guiding portion 13 may be a bump, and the second guiding portion 31 may be a chute. In this way, the gravitational roller 3, due to the constraint of the first guide 13 and the second guide 31, will only move in translation along the first direction Z, so that the gravitational roller 3 is not easily pushed by the filling and can remain compacted in the vicinity of the outlet 12. Of course, it is understood that the first guiding portion may also be a chute, and the second guiding portion may also be a bump.

Optionally, the first guiding portion 13 includes a first side 131 and a second side 132 along the first direction Z, and the first guiding portion 13 further includes a third side 133 along the discharging direction Y, where the first side 131, the second side 132 and the welding portion of the hopper body form a first welding seam 131a and a second welding seam 132a, respectively, the third side 133 is disposed away from the discharging hole 12, the welding portion of the third side 133 and the hopper body 1 forms a third welding seam 133a, and the first welding seam 131a, the third welding seam 133a and the second welding seam 132a are sequentially connected along the first direction Z. Like this, the seam with hopper body 1 inner wall can be covered by the welding seam in the all of first guiding portion 13 orientation filling material direction of motion to the welding seam makes the transition of first guiding portion 13 and hopper body 1 mellow and full, and the filling material is difficult to stay in the gap that probably exists between first guiding portion 13 and hopper body 1 and contained angle, is convenient for clear up.

Alternatively, the first guiding portion 13 may be provided with a limiting portion 134, where the limiting portion 134 is disposed at an end of the first guiding portion 13 away from the hopper body 1 along the first direction Z. Due to the blocking of the limiting part 134, the gravity roller 3 and the screw 2 can not be in direct contact, and the gravity roller 3 and the screw 2 are prevented from interfering with each other. The spacing portion 134 can also make the interval between the gravity roller and the screw rod 2 reasonable, and if the interval is too big, the compacting effect of the gravity roller 3 on the stuffing is not obvious, and if too small, the stuffing is not easy to enter between the gravity roller 3 and the screw rod 2, and the discharging speed is affected.

The limiting portion may be a metal bump, for example. It will be appreciated that in other embodiments, the stop portion may be a metal plate or sheet.

Alternatively, the gravitational roller 3 may be a solid metal roller or an alloy roller having a diameter of not less than 80mm, such as a stainless steel roller. In this way, the weight of the gravity roller 3 is large enough, so that the acting force applied to the stuffing by the gravity roller 3 is also large enough, and the stuffing can be prevented from being jacked up by the stuffing, so that the stuffing cannot be compacted. Meanwhile, the diameter of the gravity roller 3 can lengthen the distance between the position contacting the gravity roller and the position compacted by the gravity roller 3, which is beneficial for the gravity roller 3 to fully compact the stuffing. It is easy to understand that other mechanisms such as a cylinder and the like can be arranged to assist the gravity roller 3 to compact stuffing, instead of compacting stuffing only by the self weight of the gravity roller 3, so that the mass of the gravity roller 3 can be properly reduced in design, and the difficulty in transportation, assembly and debugging of the gravity roller 3 is reduced.

The diameter of the gravitational roller may be 80mm, for example. As other examples, the gravity roller may also be, for example, a steel roller, an iron roller, or the like.

Finally, it should be noted that: the above embodiments are only for illustrating the technical solution of the present utility model, and not for limiting the same; although the utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, it will be understood by those of ordinary skill in the art that: the technical scheme described in the foregoing embodiments can be modified or some or all of the technical features thereof can be replaced by equivalents; such modifications and substitutions do not depart from the spirit of the utility model.
