[0034] This section will describe in detail the specific embodiments of the present invention. The preferred embodiments of the present invention are shown in the accompanying drawings. The purpose of the accompanying drawings is to supplement the description of the text part of the specification with graphics, so that people can intuitively and vividly understand each technical feature and the overall technical solution of the present invention, but it should not be understood as a limitation on the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0035] In the description of the present invention, it should be understood that descriptions involving orientations, such as up, down, front, back, left, right, etc., indicating orientations or positional relationships, are based on the orientations or positional relationships shown in the accompanying drawings. They are only for the convenience of describing the present invention and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they cannot be understood as limitations on the present invention.

[0036] In the description of the present invention, "several" means one or more, "many" means more than two, "greater than," "less than," and "exceed" are understood to exclude the number itself, while "above," "below," and "within" are understood to include the number itself. The use of "first" and "second" in the description is solely for the purpose of distinguishing technical features and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance, implicitly specifying the number of the indicated technical features, or implicitly specifying the order of the indicated technical features.

[0037] In the description of the present invention, unless otherwise clearly defined, terms such as setting, installing, and connecting should be understood in a broad sense, and technicians in the relevant technical field can reasonably determine the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention based on the specific content of the technical solution.

[0038] Reference Figures 1 to 14 A dough dividing and rounding machine includes a frame 10, a feeding mechanism 20, a strip cutting mechanism 50, a pushing mechanism 40, a dividing mechanism 30, a rounding mechanism 60, and an output mechanism 70. The feeding mechanism 20 is mounted on the frame 10. The strip cutting mechanism 50 is mounted on the frame 10 and located at the output end of the feeding mechanism 20 and is used to divide the dough into strips. The pushing mechanism 40 is mounted on the frame 10 and connected to the output end of the strip cutting mechanism 50 and is used to push the strips of dough. The dividing mechanism 30 is rotatably mounted on the frame 10 and is used to divide the strips of dough into dough pieces in a predetermined amount. The rounding mechanism 60 is rotatably mounted on the frame 10 and located below the dividing mechanism 30 and is used to round the dough pieces. The output mechanism 70 is mounted on the frame 10 and located below the rounding mechanism 60 and is used to output the dough pieces.

[0039] It can be understood that the dough is first cut into strips of dough by the strip cutting mechanism 50, which is convenient for the pushing mechanism 40 to push. The strips of dough are then pushed into the dividing mechanism 30 by the pushing mechanism 40. The strips of dough are divided into small pieces by the pushing mechanism 40 in cooperation with the dividing mechanism 30. The small pieces of dough after division are conveyed to the rounding mechanism 60. After the dough is rounded by the rounding mechanism 60 in cooperation with the output mechanism 70, the dough is output by the output mechanism 70.

[0040] Reference Figures 1 to 3 The slitting mechanism 50 includes two sets of slitting knives 51. The two sets of slitting knives 51 are adjacently mounted on the frame 10. Intermeshing gears are provided at the ends of the two sets of slitting knives 51. Driven by a driving device, the two sets of slitting knives 51 move synchronously in opposite directions. The slitting knives 51 are provided with a plurality of slitting grooves 511. The slitting grooves 511 of the two sets of slitting knives 51 are arranged opposite each other.

[0041] It is worth noting that, driven by the driving device, the strip cutting knife 51 rotates to cut the dough raw materials. The cavity formed by the strip cutting grooves 511 of the two sets of strip cutting knives 51 can accommodate a strip of dough. Continuous rotation can complete continuous cutting and output of strip dough.

[0042] Reference Figures 1 to 7 The pushing mechanism 40 includes a workbench 41 and a pushing block 42. The workbench 41 is mounted on the frame 10 and positioned below the strip cutting mechanism 50. The workbench 41 includes a receiving plate 411 and a guide plate 412. The receiving plate 411, the guide plate 412, and the frame 10 form a pushing trough 413. The pushing block 42 is slidably inserted into the pushing trough 413 to push the dough into the trough 413.

[0043] It can be understood that before the strip dough falls from the cutting mechanism 50, the pushing block 42 is driven by the driving device to move away from the pushing groove 413, and then the strip dough falls from the cutting mechanism 50 to the receiving plate 411, and then the pushing block 42 is driven by the driving device to push the strip dough into the pushing groove 413.

[0044] Reference Figures 1 to 13 The dividing mechanism 30 includes a dividing plate 31, a cutting roller 32, and a discharging mechanism 33. The dividing plate 31 is mounted on the frame 10 and located at the output end of the pushing chute 413. The dividing plate 31 is provided with a plurality of extrusion grooves 311. The cutting roller 32 is rotatably mounted on the frame 10. One side of the dividing plate 31 is curved. The cutting roller 32 is attached to the curved surface of the dividing plate 31. The cutting roller 32 is provided with a plurality of dividing grooves 321. The dividing grooves 321 correspond one-to-one with the extrusion grooves 311. The discharging mechanism 33 is mounted on the frame 10 and is used to push the dough out of the dividing grooves 321.

[0045] It can be understood that the extrusion groove 311 connects the dividing groove 321 and the pushing groove 413, so that when the dough is pushed by the pushing block 42, it is simultaneously conveyed to the plurality of dividing grooves 321 through the extrusion groove 311. Subsequently, the cutting roller 32 rotates to cut off the connection between the dividing groove 321 and the extrusion groove 311, thereby dividing the dough. By adjusting the volume of the dividing groove 321, the dough can be divided in a fixed quantity.

[0046] Reference Figures 1 to 13 The discharging mechanism 33 includes a discharging piston 331, a discharging frame 332, a discharging ejector rod 333, and a discharging profiling plate 334. The discharging piston 331 is movably inserted into the dividing groove 321. The discharging frame 332 is located at one end of the cutting roller 32. A chute 332a is provided on the discharging frame 332. The chute 332a is oriented in the same direction as the length of the dividing groove 321. A discharging ejector rod 333 is slidably mounted on the discharging frame 332 along the chute 332a. The discharging ejector rod 333 is located at one end of the discharging piston 331. The discharging profiling plate 334 is located on the frame 10. The discharging profiling plate 334 is provided with a profiling surface 334a. One end of the discharging ejector rod 333 contacts the profiling surface 334a. When the cutting roller 32 rotates, the profiling surface 334a presses the discharging ejector rod 333, thereby pushing the discharging piston 331 to discharge the dough.

[0047] It is understood that after the dough is pressed into the dividing groove 321, the discharge piston 331 is pushed out of the dividing groove 321, so that one end of the discharge piston 331 abuts against the dough and the other end abuts against the discharge ejector rod 333. When the cutting roller 32 rotates, the discharge ejector rod 333 swings under the drive of the discharge frame 332. At this time, one end of the discharge ejector rod 333 slides along the contoured surface 334a, thereby pushing the discharge ejector rod 333 closer to the cutting roller 32 and pushing the dough out of the dividing groove 321.

[0048] It is worth noting that in some embodiments of the present invention, the cutting roller 32 is connected to a transmission mechanism to achieve reciprocating swing. The transmission mechanism can be an existing cam connecting rod, four-bar mechanism or other mechanism that can achieve reciprocating swing.

[0049] In some embodiments of the present invention, the cutting roller 32 is made of copper.

[0050] It is worth noting that, because it involves the field of food processing, lubricants such as lubricating oil cannot be used when in contact with food, and the copper cutting roller 32 can have higher self-lubricating wear resistance, which can reduce the impact of wear on the life of the equipment.

[0051] Reference Figure 13 The cutting roller 32 includes a base 322, an isolation plate 323, and several isolation blocks 324. The base 322 is made of copper. A mounting groove 322a is defined in the base 322. The isolation plates 323 are positioned on either side of the mounting groove 322a. Several isolation blocks 324 are spaced apart between the isolation plates 323. The notch between the isolation blocks 324 serves as the extrusion groove 311.

[0052] In some embodiments of the present invention, the isolation plate 323 and the isolation block 324 are both made of stainless steel.

[0053] It is worth noting that when the dough comes into contact with copper, the copper will turn green due to oxidation. Therefore, in some other embodiments of the present invention, the part that the dough directly contacts is replaced with an isolation block 324 and an isolation plate 323 made of stainless steel to prevent the dough from coming into contact with the copper.

[0054] Reference Figure 14 The rounding mechanism 60 includes an outer roller 61 and an inner roller 62. The outer roller 61 is rotatably mounted on the frame 10. The outer roller 61 is provided with a plurality of evenly spaced rounding grooves 611. The inner roller 62 is rotatably mounted on the frame 10. The inner roller 62 is disposed within the outer roller 61 and reciprocates along the axis of the outer roller 61. The outer roller 61 and the inner roller 62 cooperate to press the dough against the output mechanism 70 and knead the dough, thereby rounding the dough.

[0055] It can be understood that after the dough falls into the kneading groove 611, the inner roller 62 and the output mechanism 70 are respectively pressed on both sides of the dough, and then the outer roller 61 rotates, and the inner roller 62 rotates in the same direction as the outer roller 61, and the speed increases and decreases. While the inner roller 62 rotates, it also reciprocates along the axial direction of the inner roller 62, and the dough continues to roll and knead in the kneading groove 611.

[0056] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 The rounding mechanism 60 further includes a powder sweeping mechanism 63. The powder sweeping mechanism 63 includes a rotating rod 631 and a brush 632. The rotating rod 631 is rotatably disposed on the frame 10. The brushes are evenly arranged on the rotating rod 631 for brushing off the flour on the outer drum 61.

[0057] It is worth noting that the powder sweeping mechanism 63 can sweep away the floating powder on the outer drum 61 to avoid flour accumulation.

[0058] Reference Figure 1 、 Figure 2 as well as Figure 14 The output mechanism 70 includes a discharge conveyor belt 71 and a powder sprinkling device 72. The discharge conveyor belt 71 is mounted on the frame 10 and is located below the rounding mechanism 60. The powder sprinkling device 72 includes a flour trough 721 and a powder sprinkling roller 722. The flour trough 721 is mounted on the frame 10 and is located above the discharge conveyor belt 71. The powder sprinkling roller 722 is rotatably mounted on the frame 10 and is located in the flour trough 721. The powder sprinkling roller 722 is provided with a plurality of grooves for accommodating flour.

[0059] It is understandable that the flour in the flour trough 721 is scattered on the discharge conveyor belt 71 under the action of gravity.

[0060] It is worth noting that flour can be sprinkled on the discharge conveyor belt 71 through the powder sprinkling device 72, thereby preventing the dough from sticking to the discharge conveyor belt 71.

[0061] A dough dividing and rounding process using the dough dividing and rounding machine described in the first aspect of the present invention comprises the following steps:

[0062] Unloading: placing the material into the loading mechanism 20;

[0063] Cutting into strips: cutting the dough into strips by the strip cutting mechanism 50;

[0064] Dividing into pieces: pushing the dough into the dividing mechanism 30 through the pushing mechanism 40 and dividing it into several pieces;

[0065] Rounding: After the divided dough is fed into the rounding mechanism 60, the rounding mechanism 60 rounds the dough;

[0066] Output: The dough is output through the output mechanism 70.

[0067] The embodiments of the present invention are described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments. Various changes can be made within the scope of knowledge possessed by ordinary technicians in the technical field without departing from the scope of the present invention.
