The specific implementation mode is as follows:

referring to fig. 1, the present invention relates to a quantitative pouring machine for viscous food, and the following describes the structure of the present invention, and then describes the operation flow of the present invention, and the structure of the present invention includes:

a container 1:

referring to fig. 1, the container 1 is used for containing viscous food, for example, chocolate, which is a viscous food in the present specification, and the bottom of the container 1 is provided with an opening 11 for outputting the viscous food.

In order to allow the viscous food to automatically slide out of the opening 11, the periphery of the bottom wall of the container 1 is inclined downward toward the opening 11, so that the viscous food in the container 1 automatically falls out of the opening 11 as long as the opening 11 is opened. In order to make the opening 11 in a closed state, the opening 11 is preferably tapered from top to bottom, a tapered plug 12 is tapered from top to bottom, and the bottom of the tapered plug 12 corresponds to the profile of the opening 11, so that the tapered plug 12 can operatively plug the opening 11 to make the opening 11 in an operatively opened or closed state.

In order to make the viscous food have better fluidity during the pouring process of the quantitative pouring machine for viscous food, the invention provides a way for applying pressure to the viscous food, so that the viscous food can easily flow and be poured, and the way is as follows: the pressing unit 5 is arranged in the container 1, and the second sealing ring 51 is sleeved along the outer edge of the pressing unit 5, so that the outer edge formed by the pressing unit 5 and the second sealing ring 51 is matched with the inner edge of the container 1, and thus, the sealing effect of the second sealing ring 51 enables the pressing unit 5 to press the viscous food, so that the viscous food is not easy to overflow from the gap between the outer edge of the pressing unit 5 and the inner edge of the container 1. The container 1 and the pressing unit 5 together enclose a chamber 52, the viscous food is located in the chamber, and the opening 11 is communicated with the chamber 52; in addition, in order to improve the pressing effect of the pressing unit 5, a weight 53 is selectively disposed on the top surface of the pressing unit 5, and the weight 53 is used as the operation pressure required by the viscous food in the pouring operation, so as to ensure the fluidity and the injectability of the viscous food.

A conveying unit 2:

referring to fig. 1 and 2, the conveying unit 2 is communicated with the opening 11, the conveying unit 2 can convey the viscous food in the container 1, and all that is required for conveying the viscous food in the container 1 to other components is the conveying unit 2 referred to in this specification. As shown, the conveying unit 2 of the present invention can be implemented as: the conveying unit comprises a conveying unit body 21 and a connecting seat body 22, wherein a circulation channel 23 is arranged in the connecting seat body 22, an orifice 24 is formed on the top surface of the connecting seat body 22 by the circulation channel 23, an ejecting piece 25 is arranged in the circulation channel 23, and the top of the ejecting piece 25 is exposed relative to the orifice 24.

In this way, when the container 1 is mounted on the top surface of the connecting seat 22, the ejecting member 25 will eject the tapered plug 12 upwards, so that the tapered plug 12 will move upwards to open the opening 11, and the viscous food in the container 1 will automatically fall into the through hole 23. When the container 1 stops supplying the viscous food, the tapered plug 12 will be influenced by gravity to plug the opening 11 downward by lifting the container 1 away from the connecting seat 22, so as to prevent the viscous food from falling out. In addition, in order to avoid a gap between the container 1 and the connecting base 22, and to make the viscous food in the container 1 overflow from the gap, it is preferable to provide a plurality of first sealing rings 26 along the connecting portion between the bottom of the container 1 and the connecting base 22, so that the connection between the container 1 and the connecting base 22 is in a sealed state, and the viscous food can be prevented from overflowing.

Referring to fig. 1 and fig. 2, the conveying unit body 21 preferably includes a distribution tray 211, the distribution tray 211 has an accumulation cavity 212 therein, the distribution tray 211 may also have a center recessed inward, a guide plate 219 is disposed at the top of the recessed portion to define the accumulation cavity 212, the accumulation cavity 212 is communicated with the flow passage 23, so that when the container 1 is placed on the connecting seat 22, the viscous food flows into the accumulation cavity 212 through the flow passage 23 along the opening 11; a guiding hole 218 is formed at the top of the dispensing tray 211, the guiding hole 218 is communicated with the storage cavity 212, a counter bore 213 is formed at the bottom of the dispensing tray 211, the guiding hole 218 faces the counter bore 213, the counter bore 213 is communicated with the storage cavity 212, and a pouring unit 3 is embedded in the counter bore 213, so that the viscous food in the dispensing tray 211 flows into the pouring unit 3, and the conveying unit 2 of the present invention can complete the purpose of conveying the viscous food in the container 1 to the pouring unit 3.

As shown in fig. 4, the pouring unit 3 has a cavity 31, the cavity 31 has a piston opening 32 at the top, the bottom of the cavity 31 is tapered to form an orifice 33, the orifice 33 makes the viscous food have high viscosity, and the viscous food is not easy to overflow from the orifice 33 without applying pressure to the piston opening 32 from the outside. In addition, in order to make the pouring unit 3 easy to be removed and replaced, the pouring unit 3 defines an exposed section relative to the outer side of the bottom of the distribution tray 211, and an annular groove 34 is circumferentially formed along the exposed section, so that a relevant worker can insert a Y-shaped or U-shaped remover into the annular groove 34, and the pouring unit 3 can be easily removed by using the lever principle. In addition, in order to make the connection between the pouring unit 3 and the counter sink 213 tight and prevent the viscous food from leaking out from the gap between the pouring unit 3 and the counter sink 213, a flexible ring 35 is annularly arranged on the outer side of the top of the pouring unit 3, so that the flexible ring 35 can be forcibly deformed by a pressing manner to force the top of the pouring unit 3 into the counter sink 213.

Referring back to the conveying unit 2, in order to facilitate the cleaning of the viscous food in the storage cavity 212, a cleaning hole 214 is preferably formed in the distribution tray 211, the cleaning hole 214 is communicated with the storage cavity 212, and the cleaning hole 214 is preferably communicated with the center of the storage cavity 212; a purging plug 215 is further disposed, and the purging plug 215 is embedded in the purging hole 214. Therefore, when the present invention is used, the cleaning plug 215 is inserted into the cleaning hole 214 to prevent the viscous food from overflowing, and when the viscous food in the storage cavity 212 is to be cleaned, the storage cavity 212 can be cleaned by pulling out the cleaning plug 215. In addition, in order to avoid the solidification of the viscous food, the bottom surface of the dispensing tray 211 is preferably provided with a heating unit 216, the dispensing tray 211 is heated by the heating unit 216, so that the viscous food can be effectively prevented from solidifying, and the container 1 can also be provided with another same heating unit 216 for preventing the viscous food from solidifying, which is the heating unit 216 referred to in the specification, taking the specification as an example, the heating unit 216 is preferably a heating wire. Moreover, since the viscous food is easy to have air bubbles inside during the flowing process, in order to prevent the air bubbles from affecting the final product, the top surface of the storage cavity 212 is preferably provided with an air overflow groove 217, the air overflow groove 217 is communicated with the flow channel 23, and the air overflow groove 217 is gradually inclined upward from one end toward the other end adjacent to the flow channel 23, so that if there are air bubbles inside the viscous food in the storage cavity 212, the air bubbles can be guided to the flow channel 23 through the air overflow groove 217 and finally discharged from the container 1.

An injection unit 4:

referring to fig. 1 and fig. 3, the pressure injection unit 4 has a piston rod 41, the outer contour of the piston rod 41 corresponds to the edge of the piston opening 32, the piston rod 41 is disposed above the piston opening 32, and the pressure injection unit 4 can drive the piston rod 41 to penetrate into the piston opening 32 to the bottom dead center or to be away from the piston opening 32 to the top dead center, so as to press out the viscous food from the throttle hole 33 to complete the pouring operation. For convenience of describing the advantages of the present invention, the above description only refers to the implementation state when the number of the pouring units 3 is one, and when the number of the pouring units 3 is plural, the number of the other corresponding components will be correspondingly increased, and therefore, the number of the piston rods 41 is also increased. In order to avoid errors in the upper and lower dead points of each piston rod 41, and to avoid differences in the pouring amount of each pouring unit 3, when the number of piston rods 41 is plural, the injection unit 4 preferably performs: an integrated plate 42, one end of the piston rod 41 is mounted on the bottom surface of the integrated plate 42, and the other end faces the guide hole 218; the injection unit 4 includes a driving unit 43, and an output end of the driving unit 43 is connected to the integrated board 42 for controlling the integrated board 42 to move vertically. In this way, the plurality of piston rods 41 can be driven to move simultaneously by one driving unit 43, thereby avoiding the problems caused by different top and bottom dead centers, and in addition, the driving unit 43 is preferably selected to be a servo motor or a stepping motor, so as to effectively lead the piston rods 41 to move between the top and bottom dead centers.

A control unit:

the control unit is in information connection with the injection unit 4, the control unit can control the actuation of the piston rod 41, and the control mode mainly controls the actuation of the piston rod 41 by controlling the driving unit 43.

After the above description of the overall structure of the present invention, the operation of the present invention is described next, and the present invention is mainly used to install the container 1 containing the viscous food on the top surface of the connecting seat 22, and then push the plug 12 away from the opening 11 through the opening 25, so that the internal viscous food flows into the flow channel 23 from the opening 11, and further flows into the storage cavity 212, and then flows into the cavity 31. Then, the control unit sets the top and bottom dead centers of the piston rod 41 in advance, and then controls the driving unit 43 to operate to guide the piston rod 41 to move vertically between the top and bottom dead centers, when the piston rod 41 gradually moves toward the bottom dead center, the viscous food in the cavity 31 is squeezed and flows out from the orifice 33, so that the pouring operation is completed. The greatest characteristic of the invention lies in that when the pouring units 3 are plural, the number of the piston rods 41 is equal to that of the pouring units 3, and then the invention can simultaneously pour a plurality of components, and the pouring amount of each pouring unit 3 is the same without obvious errors.

The invention has the advantages that:

when the container 1 is placed, moved and positioned, the viscous food can automatically flow into or stop flowing into the conveying unit 2:

the container 1 can be directly placed on the connecting base 22 without pouring the viscous food again, and the pushing member 25 automatically pushes up the plug 12 to form a passage, so that the viscous food can automatically flow into the conveying unit 2 from the container. When the container 1 is lifted, the plug 12 automatically descends to block the opening 11 under the action of gravity, so as to automatically stop the outflow of the viscous food.

Second, easily change the pouring volume:

the manner of varying the amount of pouring is as follows:

a. the control changes the top and bottom dead center of the piston rod 41.

b. The pouring units 3 with different cavity space sizes are replaced.

And thirdly, the consumption of raw materials is low, and viscous foods can be fully used:

after the pouring is finished, the viscous food in the storage cavity 212 can be removed and recycled by removing the cleaning plug 215.

Fourthly, the heating and heat preservation functions are provided, and the temperature and the viscosity of the sticky food can be controlled:

the heating unit 216 can keep the temperature of the viscous food in the storage cavity 212 warm and heat the viscous food to control the temperature of the viscous food, so as to ensure the fluidity of the viscous food and facilitate the pouring operation.

Fifthly, pouring amount is accurate:

because the upper and lower dead points of the piston rod 41 can be controlled, and the precision can reach 0.05mm, for example, 4 g of chocolate, the difference between the upper and lower dead points is 19.2mm, and the precision of the pouring weight can reach 1/384 ≦ 0.5%.

Sixthly, avoiding the air holes of the casting product:

the air-overflow groove 217 can overflow air contained in the viscous food, thereby avoiding defects caused by bubbles in the formed product.

Seventhly, cleaning is facilitated:

the container 1 and the contact part of the conveying unit 2 and food have simple and smooth lines, are not easy to accumulate, are convenient to clean, can be disassembled and completely cleaned, and can be electrified and heated to completely dry.

Eighthly, pressure control:

the weight of the weight block 53 is adjusted to adjust the pressure required by the viscous food during the pouring operation, so as to ensure the fluidity and the pouring property of the viscous food during the whole pouring process.

In summary, the present application is consistent with the principles defined by the patent laws, and the following description is only illustrative of the preferred embodiments of the present invention, and the scope of the present application is defined by the claims.
