The invention relates to the technical field of packaging equipment, and in particular to a vacuum packaging machine.
As shown in
In order to overcome the technical problem of inconvenient operation of the lock structure, some (suction) vacuum packaging machines do not adopt lock structures or a manner of pressing the vacuum cover 103 with both hands to achieve the technical purpose of maintaining the bag mouth of the packaging bag flat and the vacuum chamber sealed. However, the controller 101 (and a control key) of such (suction) vacuum packaging machine is mostly provided on the machine body 104. Since the controller 101 (and a control key) is separated from the vacuum cover 103, the user still feels that the operation is inconvenient and the design is irrational. In other words, the existing (suction) vacuum packaging machines generally have technical problems of tedious operation and inconvenient use.
In order to overcome the technical problems of tedious operation and inconvenient use in the existing vacuum packaging machines, the invention provides a vacuum packaging machine with simple operation and convenient use.
In order to achieve the aforementioned objectives, a vacuum packaging machine is provided in the invention, which comprises a machine body, a vacuum cover, a main controller, a sub-controller, a heat-sealing unit, and a vacuumizing unit;

In the aforementioned vacuum packaging machine, the sub-controller is provided with a first function key used for implementing the vacuuming and heat-sealing operations, and a second function key used for separately implementing heat-sealing operation.
In the aforementioned vacuum packaging machine, the vacuum cover is provided with a handle, the handle and the vacuum chamber are respectively located at two sides of the vacuum cover, and the sub-controller is provided on the handle.
In the aforementioned vacuum packaging machine, the heat-sealing unit comprises a heater and a heat-sealing strip; the heater is provided outside of the vacuum chamber, and the heat-sealing strip is provided on an inner side wall of the vacuum cover and corresponds to the heater.
In the aforementioned vacuum packaging machine, the vacuumizing unit comprises a vacuum pump, and an exhaust port provided on the machine body. The vacuum pump is in communication connection with the main controller, the exhaust port communicates with the vacuum chamber, and a suction port of the vacuum pump communicates with the exhaust port.
In the aforementioned vacuum packaging machine, an operation panel of the main controller is provided on an upper surface of the machine body.
In the aforementioned vacuum packaging machine, the vacuum cover is hinged to the machine body.
The invention has the following beneficial effects in comparison with the prior art:

The specific embodiments of the invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. The following embodiments are used to illustrate the invention, but not to limit the scope of the invention.
Refer to
A vacuum chamber 11 is provided in the machine body 1, and the vacuum cover 2 is covered on the machine body 1 corresponding to a position of the vacuum chamber 11.
The main controller 3 is provided on the machine body 1, the sub-controller 4 is provided on the vacuum cover 2, and the main controller 3 is in communication connection with the sub-controller 4. According to use and/or design requirements, the main controller 3 and the sub-controller 4 may be in wired communication connection or wireless communication connection, so as to realize interaction of control signals and information between the sub-controller 4 and the main controller 3 on the main body of the vacuum packaging machine, and control and operation of the main controller 3 on corresponding mechanisms or components.
When the main controller 3 and the sub-controller 4 are in wired communication connection, wiring can be performed in the vacuum cover 2 and the sub-controller 4 on the vacuum cover 2 is connected to the main controller 3 on the machine body 1 through a traditional control circuit. When the vacuum cover 2 is transparent or in the case that wiring is not convenient, the main controller 3 and the sub-controller 4 can also be in wireless communication connection through, such as, infrared ray, Bluetooth, WiFi, GPRS/GSM/4G/LTE, or the like, to achieve convenient control of the vacuum packaging machine 100.
The main controller 3 is in communication connection with the heat-sealing unit 5 and the vacuumizing unit 6, and the sub-controller 4 is provided with a functional key unit 40 used for implementing vacuumizing and heat-sealing operations. According to functions to be implemented by the user pressing the function button unit 40, the sub-controller 4 generates corresponding control signals to the main controller 3. After receiving the control signals, the main controller 3 controls corresponding units or components (for example, the vacuuming unit 6, the heat-sealing unit 5) to perform the corresponding operations.
Since the main controller 3 and the sub-controller 4 which are in communication connection with each other are provided, the main controller 3 is in communication with the heat-sealing unit 5 and the vacuuming unit 6, and the sub-controller 4 is provided on the vacuum cover 2 and the sub-controller 4 is provided with a function key unit 40, a user can use one hand to press the vacuum cover 2, simultaneously press down the vacuum cover 2 to close the vacuum cover 2 and click the function key unit 40 on the sub-controller 4 to complete the entire process of a required operation. The user's other hand can easily assist the operation to make the bag mouth of the packaging bag 8 flat when the vacuum chamber 11 is closed, thereby better ensuring a good heat-sealing effect. In other words, the vacuum packaging machine 100 of the invention obviously has a simpler, more convenient and more effective operation when used than the existing vacuum packaging machines.
Refer to
In the process of using the vacuum packaging machine 100 according to the embodiment of the invention, after the packaging bag 8 is placed in the vacuum chamber 11, the vacuum cover 2 is pressed to keep the bag mouth of the packaging bag 8 flat and stable in the vacuum chamber 11. In the process of pressing the vacuum cover 2, the vacuum cover 2 and the vacuum chamber 11 form a closed space.
If a user clicks the first function key 41, the sub-controller 4 will generate a control signal to the main controller 3. After receiving the control signal, the main controller 3 will first control the vacuumizing unit 6 to vacuumize the vacuum chamber 11, and then, according to the program set by the main controller 3, control the heat-sealing unit at a certain point in the vacuuming process to heat-seal the bag mouth of the packaging bag 8.
If the user clicks the second function key 42, the sub-controller 4 will generate another control signal to the main controller 3. After receiving the another control signal, the main controller 3 will follow the program set by the main controller 3 to control the heat-sealing unit 5 to start a heat-sealing process at a certain point in the vacuumizing process, or control the heat-sealing unit 5 to heat-seal the bag mouth of the packaging bag 8 under a non-vacuumizing condition.
Refer to
Since the sub-controller 4 is provided on the handle 7, when the palm of one hand presses down the vacuum cover 2 and the bag mouth of the packaging bag 8 is kept flat and stable in the vacuum chamber 11, fingers of the one hand can also be used to operate the function key unit 40 on the sub-controller 4 to achieve one-handed operation. This effectively overcomes the technical problem of the existing vacuum packaging machines that one hand is needed to press the vacuum cover, one hand is needed to control the lock structure, one hand is needed to click the function key unit, and one hand is needed to stabilize the bag mouth, making it difficult for one person to complete operations.
Refer to
Refer to
Preferably, the vacuum cover 2 is hinged to the machine body 1 so that the vacuum cover 2 can be easily opened and closed.
In conclusion, the vacuum packaging machine of the invention has the following beneficial effects in comparison with the prior art:
Since the main controller 3 and the sub-controller 4 which are in communication connection with each other are provided, the main controller 3 is in communication connection with the heat-sealing unit 5 and the vacuuming unit 6, and the sub-controller 4 is provided on the vacuum cover 2 and the sub-controller 4 is provided with a function key unit 40, a user can use one hand to press the vacuum cover 2, simultaneously press down the vacuum cover 2 to close the vacuum cover 2 and click the function key unit 40 on the sub-controller 4 to complete the entire process of a required operation. The user's other hand can easily assist the operation to make the bag mouth of the packaging bag 8 flat when the vacuum chamber 11 is closed, thereby better ensuring a good heat-sealing effect. In other words, the vacuum packaging machine 100 of the invention obviously has a simpler, more convenient and more effective operation when used than the existing vacuum packaging machines.
