Description

Automatic Quantitative Feeding Device for Processed Grain Products The present invention relates to an automatic quantitative dispensing device for processed grain products that can dispense a predetermined amount of processed grain products into a container through a bottom hopper and a valve, and in particular, can prevent clogging during dispensing. With the recent rise in interest in health, the demand for grains that provide various nutrients and fiber is increasing, and the demand for processed foods made from these grains is also rising. In this case, regarding the technology related to a device capable of automatically feeding and filling unprocessed grains, or processed grain foods such as puffed rice made by puffing up corn, wheat, or potatoes using temperature and pressure, into a packaging container, the following are: Korean Patent Registration No. 10-1170958 (registered on July 30, 2012, hereinafter referred to as 'Document 1') “Grain and Water Quantitative Input Device” is disclosed, Literature 1 describes a device for introducing grain and water into a container with an open top, comprising: a hopper having a cone shape with a discharge hole formed at the bottom; a metering unit located at the bottom of the hopper that measures the grain discharged from the discharge hole and discharges a certain amount; and a bottom plate located at the bottom of the metering unit that has a through hole, wherein the metering unit slides in contact with the discharge hole and the sliding plate, receives the grain from the hopper at a first position, and discharges the grain through the through hole at a second position, thereby enabling the quantitative introduction of grain and water into the container with a simple configuration and allowing for very precise introduction without error in the amount of water introduced into the container. As another technology, the "Automated Grain Filling Device" disclosed in Patent No. 10-2025-0071641 (published May 22, 2025, hereinafter referred to as 'Literature 2') is presented. Literature 2 describes a technology for an automated grain filling device that includes a rotary conveyor that moves a container by rotating it; a quantitative feeder that injects grain into the container conveyed by the rotary conveyor; a lid sealer that seals a lid on the container into which the grain has been injected; and a high-frequency bonder that bonds the inner lining of the lid to the opening of the container, thereby enabling smooth filling by automatically adjusting the filling height according to the size of the container, and automatically performing deoxidizing agent injection, lid sealing, high-frequency bonding, and labeling. FIG. 1 is a front view configuration showing an automatic quantitative input device for processed grain food according to the present invention. FIG. 2 is a partial front view of FIG. 1, FIG. 3 is a configuration diagram for showing a first blockage relief means, FIG. 4 is a configuration diagram for showing a second blockage relief means, FIG. 5 is a configuration diagram for showing the rotor structure of the second blockage relief means, FIG. 6 is a configuration diagram for showing a sub-pin of a rod in a second blockage relief means, FIG. 7 is a configuration diagram to show a striking means, FIG. 8 is a configuration diagram for showing a third blockage relief means, FIGS. 9 and FIGS. 10 are configuration diagrams for showing the operating state of the third blockage relief means.
