After the material receiving is completed, the lifting device puts down the current material receiving basket, and the material receiving basket continues to go to the next material receiving station.

The specific scheme which can be realized by the method of the invention is further illustrated by the following specific examples:

example 1

The functions which can be realized by the invention are explained by the matching of the hotpot condiment:

there are 12 kinds of spices including anise, kaempferia galangal, cassia bark, fennel, tsaoko cardamon, gromwell, myrcia, vanilla, clove, crystal sugar, dry pepper and matrimony vine. Each unit cabinet is provided with 3 material receiving stations, 4 material storage boxes are arranged right above each material receiving station, namely one material receiving station is responsible for receiving and taking 4 spices, and star anise, rhizoma kaempferiae, cassia bark and fennel are placed into the material receiving station 1; placing the amomum tsao-ko, the lithospermum, the bay leaves and the vanilla into a material receiving station 2; and putting the clove, the rock sugar, the dried chili and the medlar into a material receiving station 3. To illustrate the specific embodiments more clearly, the recipe of the hotpot condiment described below is not complete, only comprises one unit cabinet, and the specific weight information does not have authenticity, only to illustrate the specific work flow.

For example: the upper computer obtains 3 pieces of formula information of the hotpot condiment from the WeChat applet or the shopping APP, wherein the formula numbers are A1-A3, and the specific formula information is as follows:

a1: rhizoma kaempferiae (15g), cortex cinnamomi japonici (30g), fructus Foeniculi (10g), radix Arnebiae (15g), folium Neocinnamomi Delavayi (15g), herb Hierochloes Adoratae (20g), flos Caryophylli (10g), and fructus Lycii (20 g);

a2: star anise (15g), rhizoma kaempferiae (20g), cassia bark (10g), common fennel fruit (5g), clove (5g), rock candy (10g), dried pepper (15g) and medlar (15 g);

a3: clove (15g), rock candy (20g), dried pepper (15g) and medlar (15 g);

it is evident that the fragrance in formulation a1 was in station 1, station 2, station 3; the perfume in formula A2 is in station 1, station 3; the fragrances in formulation A3 were all in station 3. In order to avoid the situation that a plurality of material receiving baskets continuously receive materials at the same station to cause blockage, the upper computer can carry out certain adjustment on the distribution sequence of the formula according to the formula information. Namely the final distribution sequence of the formula A1, A3 and A2.

When the lower computer receives the formula information, the lower computer starts to send the receiving basket, and the number of the receiving basket is 01-03. The control system associates the receiving baskets 01, 02 and 03 with formulas A1, A3 and A2 in sequence, namely the subsequent receiving stations can obtain the formula information associated with the receiving baskets by reading the electronic chips at the bottoms of the receiving baskets. The control system judges that the receiving basket 01 needs to receive materials at the station 1, and at the moment, the receiving basket is not arranged in the receiving station 1, namely, the receiving basket 01 directly enters the receiving station 1. The control system reads information of the receiving basket 01 through an RFID reader-writer of the receiving station 1 to obtain specific information of a formula A1, wherein the formula A1 comprises 3 spices in the station 1, namely, a weighing device corresponding to the 3 spices starts to weigh spices with corresponding weights. Meanwhile, the front stopper and the rear stopper of the receiving basket 01 are lifted immediately, the front stopper is used for preventing the receiving basket 01 from moving forwards, the receiving basket 01 is stopped at the receiving station 1, the rear stopper is used for preventing the rear receiving basket from entering the receiving station 1, the lifting mechanism starts to act after the receiving basket 01 is stabilized, the receiving basket 01 is lifted to a certain height to wait for receiving materials, the stoppers fall down at the moment, and the rear receiving basket continues to move forwards.

At this moment, the control system judges that the material receiving basket 02 does not need to receive materials at the station 1 and the station 2, namely the material receiving basket 02 can directly enter the station 3 to receive materials through the material receiving station 1 and the station 2.

After the material receiving basket 02 enters the batching unit, the control system judges that the material receiving basket 03 needs to receive material at the station 1, the material receiving basket 01 receives the material at the material receiving station 1, a stopper in front of the material receiving basket 03 rises to prevent the material receiving basket 03 from entering the material receiving station 1, and the material receiving basket 03 waits at the position.

When the signal that the receiving basket 01 ascends to the right position and the signal that the required spice is weighed are triggered simultaneously, the weighing hopper baffle motor is turned on, the delay time is 1s, and the spice falls into the receiving basket 01 through the independent blanking channel. After all spices are weighed, blanking is finished, the blocker receives a lifting instruction after the material receiving basket 01 passes through, and when no material receiving basket passes through is detected above the blocker, the rear blocker immediately lifts to block the material receiving basket behind from continuing to move forwards. When no other receiving basket passes through the bottom of the receiving basket 01, the lifting mechanism starts to act, the receiving basket 01 falls to the bottom, the stopper behind the receiving basket 01 namely falls before the receiving basket 03, so far, the receiving basket 01 finishes the whole receiving work at the receiving station 1, and the receiving basket 01 continues to move forwards to reach the next station for receiving. At the moment, the material receiving basket 03 enters the material receiving station 1, and the action of the material receiving basket 01 is repeated to receive materials.

The control system judges that the receiving basket 01 does not need to receive materials at the receiving station 2, the receiving basket 3 needs to receive materials, the receiving basket 02 receives the materials at the receiving station 3, the stopper in front of the receiving basket 03 rises to stop at the receiving station 2 for waiting, and when the receiving basket 03 finishes receiving the materials at the station 1, the control system judges that the receiving basket 03 also receives the materials at the station 3, namely the receiving basket 03 is blocked for waiting at the back. When the material receiving station (02) finishes receiving the material at the material receiving station (3), the material receiving basket (01) enters the material receiving station (3). After the material receiving basket 01 enters the station 3, the front stopper of the material receiving basket 03 can be lifted immediately to prevent the material receiving basket from moving forward to wait for the material receiving basket, and the actions are repeated until all the material receiving baskets complete material receiving.

If a new receiving basket 04 does not need to receive materials in the unit cabinet, namely the receiving basket 04 needs to directly pass through the unit, but the receiving baskets 03 and 01 stop at the front, at the moment, the lower computer control system can control the lifting mechanism to lift the receiving baskets 03 and 01 to a certain height, the receiving basket 04 is released, and then the control system drops the receiving baskets 03 and 01 to wait for receiving the materials.

The above operation is repeated until the basket leaves the dosing unit.
