Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of candy production, and in particular to candy production equipment and a production process thereof. Background Art

[0002] The method of preventing the sticking of pressed candies by sprinkling powdered sugar. If you use corn starch, you can put corn starch in a pot and fry it over medium-low heat. When you can smell the aroma of corn starch, it means that the corn starch is cooked. The fried corn starch can be used to sprinkle on the surface of candies to prevent the candies from sticking together. If you use powdered sugar, sprinkle enough powdered sugar on the candies during the candy tableting process to prevent the candies from sticking. This can also reduce the sticking of candies. It is best to apply a thin layer of lubricant on the contact surface between the punch of the candy tablet press and the candy.

[0019] A production process of candy production equipment comprises the following steps:

[0020] Mixing ratio: prepare the required sugar, starch, spices and pigment raw materials according to the formula;

[0021] Raw material mixing: 10% sugar, 60% starch, 20% spices and 10% pigment;

[0022] Raw material mixing time: The mixing time is set to 10-15 minutes to ensure that the ingredients are evenly distributed;

[0023] Candy pretreatment: put the mixed raw materials into the pretreatment box 6 for pressing, press the raw materials into rectangular sugar cakes with a thickness of 1 cm and a width of 30 cm, check the uniformity and thickness of the sugar cakes to ensure that they meet the production standards;

[0024] Sprinkle powdered sugar: sprinkle a layer of powdered sugar evenly on the surface of the sugar cake to prevent the sugar cake from sticking during subsequent handling;

[0025] Roller forming: The sugar cakes are pressed into round candies by the roller pressing mechanism, and the size can be adjusted according to the mold design.

[0026] It can be seen from the above that the candy production equipment and production process provided by the present invention have the following technical effects.

[0027] First, the scraper that rises and falls can scrape off the sticky candy raw materials on the inner wall of the pretreatment box until the scraper hits the top of the limit block and stops moving. The movable pressing block that rises and falls can continue to flip through the extrusion block when it moves down to the limit position. The rotating extrusion method of the movable pressing block 43 can force the remaining candy raw materials to converge downward. At the same time, this extrusion method prevents the raw materials from flowing upward. The middle extrusion block can continue to slide downward to squeeze the remaining raw materials, so that the raw materials are completely squeezed out from the gaps between the control blocks, which minimizes the residue of the raw materials and ensures that they have a certain thickness and width, eliminating the original processing step of manually pressing the mixed candy raw materials into sugar cakes with a certain width, thereby improving the processing efficiency of candy tablet raw materials. The equipment has the processing advantage of one-time molding, which greatly improves the production efficiency of candy.

[0028] Second: by controlling the downward movement of the lifting plate and the extrusion block to extrude the raw material, the movable pressing block first contacts the raw material and squeezes the raw material out of the gap between the two control blocks to form a rectangular sugar cake with uniform thickness. The first control rod and the rotation of the second control rod can control the width of the gap between the two control blocks by observing the scale plate, thereby controlling the thickness of the sugar cake. Since the first control rod and the second control rod have different pitches, the thickness of the sugar cake can be accurately controlled by coarse adjustment of the first control rod and fine adjustment of the second control rod.

[0029] Thirdly, the throwing plates inside the first and second powdered sugar boxes slide back and forth, and due to the design of the fixed seam and the movable seam, the powdered sugar inside the second powdered sugar box is sprinkled on the surface of the conveyor belt, and the pressed rectangular sugar cakes are conveyed forward by the conveyor belt. The bottom of the sugar cakes is sticky with powdered sugar to prevent them from sticking to the conveyor belt, and the powdered sugar inside the first powdered sugar box is sprinkled on the upper surface of the sugar cakes, which prevents the sugar cakes from sticking to the equipment during the rolling process.

[0030] Fourthly: after the candy raw materials are completely pressed out, the rotating rod is rotated to separate the first movable gear from the rotating frame and the top gear respectively, and the second movable gear is meshed with the bottom gear and the middle gear respectively, thereby changing the rotation direction of the threaded rod and causing the extrusion block to rise back to its original position. By manually changing the movement direction of the extrusion block, damage to the equipment caused by different pressing times of the extrusion block can be prevented, thereby protecting the equipment.

[0050] A first torsion spring is provided at the connection between the fixed plate and the scraper 44, a second torsion spring is provided at the connection between the movable pressure block 43 and the extrusion frame 45, the control block 41 slides between the limit block 40 and the bottom of the pretreatment box 6, and a scale is provided on the scale plate 38 for recording the moving distance of the first control rod 39 and the second control rod 42.

[0051] It should be noted that a card slot is provided on the card plate 47 , and the handle 46 can be stuck in the card slot to limit the height of the partition 57 .

[0052] In this embodiment, the baffle 57 is pulled upward by the handle 46 to open the feed port, and then the handle 46 can be rotated to clamp the handle 46 on the clamping groove of the clamping plate 47 to fix the height of the baffle 57. Then, the raw materials of the pretreatment step are put into the pretreatment box 6 through the feed port, and the baffle 57 is closed. The raw materials are squeezed by controlling the lifting plate 50 and the extrusion block 49 to move downward. The movable pressing block 43 first contacts the raw materials and squeezes the raw materials out of the gap between the two control blocks 41 to form a rectangular sugar cake with uniform thickness. The first control rod 39 and the second control rod 42 are rotated, and the gap width between the two control blocks 41 can be controlled by observing the scale plate 38, thereby controlling the thickness of the sugar cake. Since the pitches of the first control rod 39 and the second control rod 42 are different, the thickness of the sugar cake can be accurately controlled by coarse adjustment of the first control rod 39 and fine adjustment of the second control rod 42.

[0053] Furthermore, the lifting plate 50 and the squeezing block 49 continue to move downward, and the scrapers 44 on both sides scrape off the candy raw materials sticking to the inner wall of the pre-treatment box 6, thereby clearing the residual raw materials on the inner wall of the pre-treatment box 6, until the scraper 44 abuts against the top of the limit block 40, the scraper 44 stops moving, compresses the second spring, causes the first slide bar 48 to slide, and the movable pressing block 43 contacts the outer wall of one side of the limit block 40, and the movable pressing block 43 rotates and completely fits the outer wall of one side of the limit block 40, forcing the remaining candy raw materials to converge downward, and the movable pressing blocks 43 on both sides separate to expose the squeezing block 49 in the middle, and the squeezing block 49 continues to slide downward to squeeze the remaining raw materials, so that the raw materials are completely squeezed out from the gap between the control blocks 41, and ensure that they have a certain thickness and width, thereby eliminating the original processing step of manually pressing the mixed candy raw materials into sugar cakes with a certain width, thereby improving the processing efficiency of candy tablet raw materials.

[0054] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 5 In a preferred embodiment, the reversing mechanism includes a bottom gear 26 fixedly connected to one end of an auxiliary roller 10, the auxiliary roller 10 is located at the bottom of the pretreatment box 6, one side of the mounting frame 1 is rotatably connected to a rotating frame 25 near the bottom position of the bottom gear 26, one end of the top of the rotating frame 25 is rotatably connected to a first movable gear 23, the other end of the top of the rotating frame 25 is rotatably connected to a second movable gear 27, the other side of the rotating frame 25 is fixedly connected to a rotating rod 24, one side of the mounting frame 1 is located at the top position of the bottom gear 26 and is rotatably connected to a top gear 29, one side of the top gear 29 is fixedly connected to a first bevel gear 30, and one side of the mounting frame 1 is located at one side of the first bevel gear 30 and is rotatably connected to an intermediate gear 28.

[0055] The bottom end of the threaded rod 31 is fixedly connected to the second bevel gear, the first bevel gear 30 is meshed with the second bevel gear, the middle gear 28 is meshed with the top gear 29, and the rotation of the rotating frame 25 can change the position of the first movable gear 23 and the second movable gear 27, so that the first movable gear 23 and the second movable gear 27 are respectively meshed with the bottom gear 26 and the top gear 29.

[0056] It is also necessary to explain that the bottom gear 26 is meshed with the first movable gear 23, the threaded rod 31 rotates forward, and the extrusion block 49 descends; the bottom gear 26 is meshed with the second movable gear 27, the threaded rod 31 rotates reversely, and the extrusion block 49 rises. The rotating rod 24 has a certain damping force during the rotation process. When the bottom gear 26 and the second movable gear 27 are meshed or the bottom gear 26 and the first movable gear 23 are meshed, the rotating rod 24 will not rotate due to vibration.

[0057] In this embodiment, after the candy material is completely pressed out, the rotating rod 24 is rotated to separate the first movable gear 23 from the rotating frame 25 and the top gear 29 respectively, and the second movable gear 27 is meshed with the bottom gear 26 and the middle gear 28 respectively, and the rotation direction of the threaded rod 31 is changed to make the extrusion block 49 rise back to its original position. By manually changing the movement direction of the extrusion block 49, damage to the equipment caused by the different pressing time of the extrusion block 49 is prevented, thereby protecting the equipment.

[0058] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 7 In a preferred embodiment, the other end of the auxiliary roller 10 is fixedly connected to an eccentric disk 13, and the auxiliary roller 10 is located at the bottom of the pretreatment box 6. One side of the mounting frame 1 is located at the top of the eccentric disk 13 and is rotatably connected to a swing plate 15. Both ends of the swing plate 15 are respectively provided with slide grooves 14. One side of the eccentric disk 13 is fixedly connected to a first short column, and one side of the linkage plate 17 is fixedly connected to a second short column. The first short column and the second short column slide in the slide groove 14 respectively.

[0059] In this embodiment, during the process of the motor 2 rotating to drive the auxiliary roller 10, the active roller 11 and the conveyor belt 8 to rotate, the auxiliary roller 10 drives the eccentric disk 13 to rotate, thereby driving the swing plate 15 to rotate, and driving the linkage plate 17 to slide back and forth, so that the throwing plate 35 inside the first powder sugar box 5 and the second powder sugar box 7 slide back and forth. Due to the design of the fixed seam 36 and the movable seam 37, the powder sugar inside the second powder sugar box 7 is sprinkled on the surface of the conveyor belt 8, and the pressed rectangular sugar cake is conveyed forward by the conveyor belt 8. The bottom of the sugar cake is sticky with powder sugar to prevent the sugar cake from sticking to the conveyor belt 8. The powder sugar inside the first powder sugar box 5 is sprinkled on the upper surface of the sugar cake, which has the effect of preventing the sugar cake from sticking to the equipment during the rolling process.

[0060] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 7 and Figure 8 In a preferred embodiment, a plurality of forming cylinders 55 are arranged on the inner wall of the rolling cylinder 33, and a discharge rod 53 is slidably connected inside the forming cylinder 55. A discharge spring 54 is sleeved on one end of the discharge rod 53, and a piston 56 is fixedly connected to the other end of the discharge rod 53. The piston 56 slides inside the forming cylinder 55, and an arc-shaped incision is provided on the edge of one end of the forming cylinder 55. The arc-shaped incision can enable the forming cylinder 55 to better press the candy.

[0061] In this embodiment, when the sugar cake passes through the bottom of the rolling cylinder 33, the auxiliary roller 10 drives the auxiliary gear 22 and the rolling gear 20 to rotate, and the fixed roller 32 is fixed. The rolling cylinder 33 drives multiple forming cylinders 55 to rotate, continuously rolling the sugar cake, and pressing the sugar cake into a round sugar piece and leaving it inside the forming cylinder 55. Through the rotation of the rolling cylinder 33, since the cross-section of the fixed roller 32 is an irregular circle, when the rolling cylinder 33 passes above the collecting box 12, the fixed roller 32 squeezes the discharge rod 53 to compress the discharge spring 54, so that the discharge rod 53 pushes the piston 56 to push the sugar piece out of the forming cylinder 55 and drop it into the collecting box 12. The sugar piece rolled by the rolling cylinder 33 can accurately and continuously press the candy without stopping the conveyor belt 8, thereby improving the efficiency of pressing the candy.

[0062] The candy production process includes the following steps:

[0063] Mixing ratio: prepare the required sugar, starch, spices and pigment raw materials according to the formula;

[0064] Raw material mixing: 10% sugar, 60% starch, 20% spices and 10% pigment;

[0065] Raw material mixing time: The mixing time is set to 10-15 minutes to ensure that the ingredients are evenly distributed;

[0066] Candy pretreatment: put the mixed raw materials into the pretreatment box 6 for pressing, press the raw materials into rectangular sugar cakes with a thickness of 1 cm and a width of 30 cm, check the uniformity and thickness of the sugar cakes to ensure that they meet the production standards;

[0067] Sprinkle powdered sugar: sprinkle a layer of powdered sugar evenly on the surface of the sugar cake to prevent the sugar cake from sticking during subsequent handling;

[0068] Roller forming: The sugar cakes are pressed into round candies by the roller pressing mechanism, and the size can be adjusted according to the mold design.

[0069] Working principle: When in use, the baffle 57 is pulled upward by the handle 46 to open the feed port, and then the handle 46 can be turned to clamp the handle 46 on the card slot of the card plate 47 to fix the height of the baffle 57, and then the raw materials of the pretreatment step are put into the pretreatment box 6 through the feed port, and the baffle 57 is closed. The raw materials are squeezed by controlling the lifting plate 50 and the squeezing block 49 to move downward. The movable pressing block 43 first contacts the raw materials and squeezes the raw materials from the gap between the two control blocks 41 to form a rectangular sugar cake with uniform thickness. By rotating the first control rod 39 and the second control rod 42 and observing the scale plate 38, the gap width between the two control blocks 41 can be controlled, thereby controlling the thickness of the sugar cake. Since the pitches of the first control rod 39 and the second control rod 42 are different, the thickness of the sugar cake can be accurately controlled by coarse adjustment of the first control rod 39 and fine adjustment of the second control rod 42. Thickness, the lifting plate 50 and the squeezing block 49 continue to move downward, and the scrapers 44 on both sides scrape off the candy raw materials sticking on the inner wall of the pre-processing box 6, so as to clear the residual raw materials on the inner wall of the pre-processing box 6, until the scrapers 44 abut against the top of the limit block 40, the scrapers 44 stop moving, compressing the second spring to make the first slide bar 48 slide, and when the movable pressing block 43 descends and contacts the outer wall of the limit block 40, the movable pressing block 43 will stop descending. At this time, the squeezing block 49 will continue to move downward and squeeze the first spring to contract. As the squeezing block 49 descends, the movable pressing block 43 will be squeezed to rotate and completely fit the outer wall of one side of the limit block 40. Through the rotating squeezing method of the movable pressing block 43, the remaining candy raw materials can be forced to converge downward. At the same time, this squeezing method prevents the raw materials from flowing upward. The movable pressing blocks 43 on both sides rotate in the opposite direction and the squeezing block 49 in the middle is exposed.The extrusion block 49 continues to slide downward to extrude the remaining raw materials, so that the raw materials are completely squeezed out from the gaps between the control blocks 41, thereby reducing the residual raw materials to the greatest extent and ensuring that they have a certain thickness and width, thereby eliminating the processing step of manually pressing the original mixed candy raw materials into a candy cake with a certain width, thereby improving the processing efficiency of the candy pressed raw materials. After the candy raw materials are completely squeezed out, the rotating rod 24 is rotated to separate the first movable gear 23 from the rotating frame 25 and the top gear 29 respectively, and the second movable gear 27 is respectively separated from the bottom gear 26 and the middle gear 27. The intermediate gear 28 is meshed to change the rotation direction of the threaded rod 31, so that the extrusion block 49 rises and returns to the original position. By manually changing the movement direction of the extrusion block 49, the equipment damage caused by the different pressing time of the extrusion block 49 is prevented, which plays a role in protecting the equipment. When the motor 2 rotates to drive the auxiliary roller 10, the active roller 11 and the conveyor belt 8 to rotate, the auxiliary roller 10 drives the eccentric disk 13 to rotate, thereby driving the swing plate 15 to rotate, driving the linkage plate 17 to slide back and forth, and causing the throwing plate 35 inside the first powdered sugar box 5 and the second powdered sugar box 7 to slide back and forth. The design of the fixed seam 36 and the movable seam 37 allows the sugar powder in the second sugar powder box 7 to be sprinkled on the surface of the conveyor belt 8. The pressed rectangular sugar cakes are conveyed forward by the conveyor belt 8. The bottom of the sugar cakes sticks to the sugar powder to prevent them from sticking to the conveyor belt 8. The sugar powder in the first sugar powder box 5 is sprinkled on the upper surface of the sugar cakes, which prevents the sugar cakes from sticking to the equipment during the rolling process. When the sugar cakes pass through the bottom of the rolling cylinder 33, the auxiliary roller 10 drives the auxiliary gear 22 and the rolling gear 20 to rotate, and the fixed roller 32 is fixed, and the rolling cylinder 33 drives multiple forming machines. The cylinder 55 rotates and continuously rolls the sugar cakes, pressing the sugar cakes into round sugar pieces and leaving them inside the forming cylinder 55. Through the rotation of the rolling cylinder 33, since the cross section of the fixed roller 32 is an irregular circle, when the rolling cylinder 33 passes over the collecting box 12, the fixed roller 32 squeezes the discharge rod 53 and compresses the discharge spring 54, so that the discharge rod 53 pushes the piston 56 to push the sugar piece out of the forming cylinder 55 and drop it into the collecting box 12. The sugar piece rolled by the rolling cylinder 33 can accurately and continuously press the candy without stopping the conveyor belt 8, which improves the efficiency of pressing the candy.
