在一些实施例中,如图6、图10所示,在弹射时,粮食勺43需要短暂停止摆动,盛粮机构4包括主动齿圈411、从动齿圈421、滑转部412和滑转槽422。
滑转部412与主动齿圈411连接,并且滑转部412与主动齿圈411并排设置,与滑转部412并排的轮齿中,至少一个轮齿的齿顶低于滑转部412的顶部或者与滑转部412的顶部齐平。主动齿圈411中,齿顶低于滑转部412的顶部或者与滑转部412的顶部齐平的轮齿为主动虚齿。
滑转槽422与从动齿圈421连接,并且从动齿圈421与主动齿圈411啮合,滑转槽422与从动齿圈421并排设置,滑转槽422与滑转部412相适配,与滑转槽422并排的轮齿中,至少一个轮齿的齿顶低于滑转槽422的底部或者与滑转槽422的底部齐平。从动齿圈421中,低于滑转槽422的底部或者与滑转槽 422的底部齐平的轮齿为从动虚齿。
通常情况下,主动齿圈411于从动齿圈421啮合,盛粮机构4传动动力,使得粮食勺43能够摆动,在粮食勺43摆动至靠近弹射位置时,滑转部412滑入滑转槽422。随着主动虚齿的前一个轮齿脱离啮合状态,粮食勺43摆动至弹射位置,此时滑转部412至少部分于滑转槽422相适配,从动齿圈421失去驱动力,滑转部412与滑转槽422适配使得滑转部412定位从动齿圈421,粮食勺43停止摆动。之后,随着主动齿圈411的旋转,主动虚齿与从动虚齿进入虚啮合状态,但是主动虚齿无法与从动虚齿接触,在虚啮合状态下主动齿圈411旋转,从动齿圈421不旋转,因此,粮食勺43在虚啮合的过程中能够短暂停止摆动,此时弹射机构5弹射粮食。
滑转槽422的底部为弧形槽,滑转部412的外轮廓与滑转槽422相适配。
为了便于滑转部412滑入滑转槽422内,滑转部412的首先于滑转槽422适配的一端设置倒圆角。
对于前述主动齿圈411和从动齿圈421,应该理解为动力从主动齿圈411传动至从动齿圈421。
盛粮机构4包括两个齿轮时,盛粮机构4包括第一传动齿轮41、第二传动齿轮42和粮食勺43。第一传动齿轮41和第二传动齿轮42啮合,第二传动齿轮42与粮食勺43连接,从而带动粮食勺43摆动盛粮。
具体来说,第一传动齿轮41上设有主动齿圈411和滑转部412,主动齿圈411与输出齿轮2啮合。第二传动齿轮42上设有从动齿圈421和滑转槽422。
盛粮机构4包括单个齿轮时,输出齿轮2设置有主动齿圈411和滑转部412,盛粮机构4中的单个齿轮设置有从动齿圈421和滑转槽422。
在一些实施例中,如图5、图6所示,弹射机构5还包括拨动件55和复位 件56。滑动件3上设有用于蓄力时限制拨动件55位置的限位部33。拨动件55可旋转地连接于滑动件3上,复位件56一部分连接滑动件3,复位件56的另一部分连接拨动件55以驱动拨动件55复位抵接限位部33。滑动件3的往复移动分别为复位移动和蓄力移动。复位移动时,滑动件3带动拨动件55移动,并且至少移动至拨动件55钩挂弹射机构5。在钩挂弹射机构5时,拨动件55受弹射机构5的抵压而摆动,直至拨动件55越过弹射机构5,此时复位件56驱动拨动件55摆动至抵接限位部33,此时虽然拨动件55不直接抵接弹射机构5,但是,以及处于可以随时钩挂弹射机构5的状态。在蓄力移动时,滑动件3的移动方向于复位移动相反,即,滑动件3带动拨动件55移动,拨动件55随滑动件3的移动而钩挂弹射机构5,使得弹射机构5蓄力,继续移动直至粮食勺43摆动至弹射位置时,拨动件55与弹射机构5脱钩,弹射机构5释放所蓄之力,从而弹射粮食。
具体来说,前述复位件56为扭簧。
对于弹射机构5可以是电磁弹射也可以是机械弹射,弹射机构5为电磁弹射时,可以在拨动件55的蓄力移动路径上设置蓄力开关和释放开关,从而通过拨动件55在蓄力移动时分别触发,形成对粮食勺43上粮食的弹射。
在一些实施例中,弹射机构5为机械弹射,具体来说,如图5、图6所示,弹射机构5包括弹射转轴51、弹射件52、蓄力件53、第一连杆54、拨动件55和复位件56,蓄力件53与弹射转轴51连接用在弹射转轴51旋转时蓄力,弹射件52连接于弹射转轴51用于弹射粮食勺43上的粮食,第一连杆54一端连接弹射转轴51、另一端延伸至拨动件55移动路径上。滑动件3在做蓄力移动时,拨动件55带动第一连杆54摆动,即拨动件55钩挂第一连杆54从而带动第一连杆54摆动,第一连杆54带动弹射转轴51旋转,从而使得蓄力件53蓄力, 随着蓄力移动的进行,拨动件55移动至与第一连杆54脱离的位置时,蓄力件53释放所蓄之力,弹射转轴51旋转,弹射件52弹射粮食勺43上的粮食。
蓄力件53为套设于弹射转轴51上的扭簧。
在一些实施例中,如图2、图7所示,联动机构还包括开门机构6,开门机构6包括翻转门61和翻转传动机构,翻转门61与翻转传动机构连接,翻转传动机构与滑动件3连接。在滑动件3蓄力移动时,滑动件3带动翻转门61开启,在复位移动时,滑动件3带动翻转门61闭合。
本实施例中,通过输出齿轮2的往复旋转,同时带动粮食勺43往复摆动、弹射机构5弹射、翻转门61翻转,单一动力源驱动多个机构运动,减少动力源设置,精简动力源,降低成本。
具体来说,如图7、图8所示,翻转门61上设摆动杆611。翻转传动机构为牵引杆62,牵引杆62的中部可旋转地设置于投食器主体1内,牵引杆62的一端设有可旋转地连接于摆动杆611,牵引杆62的另一端连接滑动件3。在蓄力移动时,滑动件3带动牵引杆62摆动,牵引杆62牵引摆动杆611摆动,摆动杆611带动翻转门61翻转。
滑动件3带动牵引杆62摆动,具体来说,可以是滑动件3上的凸起带动牵引杆62摆动,也可以是牵引杆62的另一端设有驱动部622,驱动部622延伸至第一连杆54。在蓄力件53蓄力时,第一连杆54产生摆动,第一连杆54带动驱动部622旋转,驱动部622带动牵引杆62的另一端旋转,从而使得牵引杆62整体摆动,牵引杆62牵引摆动杆611摆动,从而使得翻转门61在蓄力时打开。
在持续蓄力时,到蓄力极限后,拨动件55越过与第一连杆54,第一连杆54与拨动件55脱离,蓄力件53释放弹力,弹射转轴51旋转,弹射件52弹射粮食勺43上的食物。第一连杆54在弹力释放后快速复位,驱动部622失去第 一连杆54的支撑或者带动后,在翻转门61重力的作用下向下翻转,牵引杆62的另一端沿蓄力件53的复位方向旋转。
进一步地,如图7、图8所示,牵引杆62的一端设有第二长孔621,第二长孔621套于摆动杆611上。牵引杆62和摆动杆611的转动中心固定不变,牵引杆62和摆动杆摆611动时,第二长孔621使得牵引杆62另一端的有效长度发生变化,避免牵引杆62和摆动杆611摆动产生相互干涉。
或者翻转门61上设摆动杆611。翻转传动机构为第二连杆63,第二连杆63的第一端可旋转地连接于滑动件3,第二连杆63的第二端可旋转地连接于摆动杆611。滑动件3的移动,使得第二连杆63的位置和朝向发生变化,从而带动摆动杆611摆动,进而带动翻转门61翻转。
更进一步地,如图10所示,第二连杆63的第一端设有第三长孔631。滑动件3上设有联动部34,联动部34伸入第三长孔631内。由于滑动件3的移动,使得滑动件3于摆动杆611的距离发生变化,在第二连杆63上设置第三长孔631后,能够改变第二连杆63上的与滑动件3连接的位置,使得第二连杆63的有效长度发生变化,第二连杆63能够适应滑动件3的位置变化。
在一些储粮仓111的实施例中,上壳体12扣设于下壳体11上,储粮仓111内的空间可供粮食勺43做摆动。如图4、图12所示,储粮仓111的两相对的侧壁上设有用于缩减粮食勺43与储粮仓111间距的凸脊1111,间距小于粮食的最小外轮廓,凸脊1111从储粮仓111的侧壁平滑延伸至储粮仓111的底部。粮食勺43在摆动的过程中,粮食勺43于储粮仓111的间距小于粮食的最小外轮廓,如此,可有效的避免粮食卡于粮食勺43于储粮仓111之间,避免粮食干扰粮食勺43的摆动,避免投喂故障,提高粮食勺43摆动的稳定性。另外,也通过对间距的控制,使得在粮食勺43在盛粮上摆时,储粮仓111能够协同限制粮食的 位置,粮食在凸脊1111配合下落入粮食勺43内。
进一步地,储粮仓111的底部具有最低位置。并且,凸脊1111平滑延伸至最低位置,储粮仓111的侧壁平滑延伸至最低位置。粮食勺43摆动经过粮食后,粮食能够回落至储粮仓111的最低位置,避免粮食停留在其他位置而错开粮食勺43。
进一步地,储粮仓111的纵向截面内轮廓呈圆弧状。
在一些投食器的实施例中,盛粮机构4还包括转轴44,转轴44与粮食勺43连接,同时转轴44用于传动的齿轮,即与第二传动齿轮42连接,第二传动齿轮42带动转轴44往复旋转,转轴44驱动粮食勺43做纵向往复摆动。
进一步地,如图13所示,粮食勺43包括柄部431和设置于柄部431末端的勺部432,勺部432的正面设有用于容置粮食的凹位4321。通过凹位4321盛放粮食,粮食勺43盛粮上摆时,粮食能够稳定地盛放于粮食勺43内。
进一步地,如图13所示,勺部432上还设有与凹位4321连通的滑槽4322,滑槽4322位于凹位4321的远离柄部431的一侧,滑槽4322从凹位4321贯穿至勺部432的远离柄部431的一端。凹位4321的靠近柄部431的侧壁设供弹射机构5弹射粮食的弹射通过槽4323。在弹射时,通常粮食是直线弹出,本实施例中,通过设置滑槽4322引导粮食直线弹出。同时,在粮食勺43盛粮上摆时,还能引导粮食落入前述凹位4321内。
更进一步地,如图13所示,勺部432的背面设有分流板433。弹射之后粮食勺43回摆,通过分流板433引导粮食向粮食勺43的两侧移动,降低粮食勺43回摆的阻力。回摆的过程中,最后一端是上摆,分流板433能够减少粮食堆积于粮食勺43背面的数量,减少回摆带起的粮食数量。
另外,如图13所示,勺部432的背面设有导流面4324,导流面4324从分 流板433向两侧延伸。回摆的过程中,最后一端是上摆,导流面4324能够引导粮食快速从粮食勺43的背面落下,避免粮食勺43在回摆时推动粮食飞溅。
在一些上壳体12的实施例中,如图4所示,上壳体12上设有环形导向槽1221,环形导向槽1221的外环侧壁与储粮仓111的侧壁平滑连接,环形导向槽1221的底部与外环侧壁平滑连接,环形导向槽1221的底部与环形导向槽1221的内环侧壁平滑连接。部分粮食在回摆的过程中被推动飞溅时,粮食飞入环形导向槽1221内,在环形导向槽1221的引导下回落至储粮仓111内,避免粮食飞出投食器主体1外。
上述实施方式仅为本发明的优选实施方式,不能以此来限定本发明保护的范围,本领域的技术人员在本发明的基础上所做的任何非实质性的变化及替换均属于本发明所要求保护的范围。
