DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0035] Taking scallion biscuits as an example, the current production method is basically to add scallion whites and greens into the biscuit body, the scallion flavor is relatively light, and the visibility of the added ingredients is poor.

[0036] According to the inventor's research, in order to make the scallion biscuits more flavorful and the additives more visible, the scallion whites can be added to the biscuit body and the scallion greens can be sprinkled on the surface of the biscuit body. This not only makes the scallion biscuits more flavorful, but also makes the additives more visible and the product more beautiful.

[0037] If you want to sprinkle green onions on the surface of the cake, you need to sprinkle green onion tubes (small pieces of green onions) on the surface of the dough strip between the last and second-to-last calendering processes.

[0038] However, when the existing calendering equipment performs a calendering operation on the dough sheet sprinkled with green onion tubes, water will be squeezed out of the green onion tubes.

[0039] In other applications, existing calendering equipment is also prone to squeeze out a small amount of water when performing calendering operations on softer dough sheets or dough sheets mixed with potato starch.

[0040] As mentioned above, the squeezed water will adhere to the calendering roller. When the roller with water adheres to the dough band performs the calendering operation on the dough band behind, the stickiness of the dough band increases, which is easy to cause the dough band to break. Slightly damaged dough bands will affect the shape of the biscuits, and severe damage will cause some areas of the dough band to be unable to be made into biscuits, thus affecting the biscuit production capacity.

[0041] In view of this problem, the utility model provides a production system, in which a flour feeding assembly is arranged in the calendering device of the production system, and flour is provided to the calendering assembly through the flour feeding assembly, and the flour is used to absorb the liquid squeezed out of the dough band sprinkled with additives adhered to the calendering assembly, so as to reduce the occurrence of dough band breakage, thereby improving production capacity. The spreading equipment of the production system is arranged between the last calendering process and the penultimate calendering process of the dough band, and the spreading equipment can realize automatic spreading, which can improve the spreading efficiency compared with manual spreading, and the spreading is more uniform, thereby improving production efficiency.

[0042] In order to make the above-mentioned objects, features and advantages of the present invention more obvious and understandable, specific embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0043] The present invention provides a production system, which includes:

[0044] Material spreading equipment, used to spread material on the facing belt;

[0045] and a calendering device for performing a calendering operation on the dough sheet sprinkled with the additive;

[0046] Wherein, the calendering equipment comprises: a calendering assembly, used for performing a calendering operation on the dough strip; and a flour supply assembly, used for providing flour to the calendering assembly to absorb the liquid on the calendering assembly.

[0047] Compared with the existing production system, by adding a flour feeding assembly in the calendering device, flour can be provided to the calendering assembly, and then the flour can be used to absorb the liquid adhering to the calendering assembly to avoid the damage of the dough strip, and finally the production capacity can be effectively improved. The liquid adhering to the calendering assembly includes but is not limited to water, and can also be other liquids, such as oil, sugar solution, etc.

[0048] The calendering assembly and the flour feeding assembly may have a variety of structures, which are not limited here.

[0049] Figure 1 It is a schematic diagram of the three-dimensional structure of a calendering device in one embodiment of the utility model. Figure 2 for Figure 1 Cross-sectional view of the side view of the calendering equipment.

[0050] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 In one embodiment, the calendering device includes: a calendering component 10 and a flour feeding component 20.

[0051] In a specific implementation, the calendering assembly 10 is used to perform a calendering operation on the dough band 30, that is, the process of thinning the dough band from thick. Taking the biscuit making process as an example, 3 to 4 calendering operations are usually required. If the initial thickness of the dough band is 25 mm, it undergoes 4 calendering operations. After the first calendering operation, the thickness of the band becomes 12 mm, after the second calendering operation, the thickness of the band becomes 5 mm, after the third calendering operation, the thickness of the band becomes 2 mm, and after the fourth calendering operation, the thickness of the band becomes 1 mm. Subsequently, the 1 mm thick dough band is cut into pieces of biscuits using a mold and then baked.

[0052] In a specific implementation, the calendering assembly 10 includes: a first roller 101 and a second roller 102 ; the first roller 101 and the second roller 102 rotate in opposite directions and are located on opposite sides of the dough strip 30 .

[0053] In one embodiment, the first roller 101 and the second roller 102 are placed in a vertical direction. Specifically, the first roller 101 can be located above the dough belt 30, and the second roller 102 can be located below the dough belt 30.

[0054] In another embodiment, the first roller 101 and the second roller 102 may also be placed in the horizontal direction. Specifically, the first roller 101 may be located on the left side of the dough belt 30 , and the second roller 102 may be located on the right side of the dough belt 30 .

[0055] In practical applications, the dough belt 30 can be placed on a conveyor belt. No matter how the first roller 101 and the second roller 102 are placed, the dough belt 30 can be transferred from one side of the calendering assembly 10 to the other side of the calendering assembly 10 through the gap between the first roller 101 and the second roller 102. The first roller 101 is in direct contact with the dough belt 30, and the second roller 102 is also in direct contact with the dough belt 30.

[0056] In a specific implementation, a protective cover 103 may be provided outside the first roller 101, and the protective cover 103 wraps the first roller 101 and rotates synchronously with the first roller 101. The protective cover 103 is used to prevent the dough belt 30 from falling toward the edge of the first roller 101.

[0057] In a specific implementation, the conveying direction of the dough strip 30 matches the rotation direction of the first roller 101 and the second roller 102. Figure 2 Assuming that the conveying direction of the dough belt 30 is direction A, at this time, the first roller 101 should rotate counterclockwise and the second roller 102 should rotate clockwise.

[0058] In a specific implementation, the gap between the first roller 101 and the second roller 102 is adjustable. For example, at least one of the first roller 101 and the second roller 102 may be connected to a driving motor, and the driving motor drives the connected roller to move, thereby changing the gap between the first roller 101 and the second roller 102, so that the gap between the first roller 101 and the second roller 102 matches the required dough strip thickness.

[0059] In a specific implementation, the flour supply assembly 20 may include: a flour storage trough 201, wherein the flour storage trough 201 includes a trough wall and a flour discharge port surrounded by the trough wall, and flour is provided to the calendering assembly 10 through the flour discharge port.

[0060] Specifically, the gap between the flour discharge port and the calendering assembly 10 can be set to be sufficiently small. Flour is stored in the flour storage tank 201. When the dough strip 30 is squeezed by the upper and lower rollers, when liquid adheres to the first roller 101, the adhered liquid will protrude from the surface of the first roller 101. When the first roller 101 adhered with liquid passes through the flour discharge port of the flour storage tank 201, the liquid on the first roller 101 will stick to some flour from the flour discharge port, and the sticky flour will absorb or even dry the liquid adhered to the first roller 101.

[0061] In a specific implementation, the flour storage tank 201 can have a variety of implementation methods, which are not limited here.

[0062] Specifically, refer to Figure 1 The flour storage trough 201 may include: a first trough wall 201a perpendicular to the rotation direction of the calendering assembly 10, a second trough wall 201b and a third trough wall 201c parallel to the rotation direction of the calendering assembly 10, and a fourth trough wall 201d; the first trough wall 201a is connected to one end of the second trough wall 201b and the third trough wall 201c, the fourth trough wall 201d is connected to the other end of the second trough wall 201b and the third trough wall 201c, and the edges of the first trough wall 201a, the second trough wall 201b, the third trough wall 201c and the fourth trough wall 201d close to the calendering assembly 10 form the flour discharge port.

[0063] In a specific implementation, the flour discharge port can be fitted with the surface of the first roller 101, that is, the shape formed by the edge of the first groove wall 201a, the second groove wall 201b, the third groove wall 201c and the fourth groove wall 201d close to the calendering assembly 10 is the same as the surface shape of the first roller 101, but there is a certain gap between the first groove wall 201a and the fourth groove wall 201d and the first roller 101, and the gap enables the first roller 101 to rotate unimpeded, and when liquid adheres to the surface of the first roller 101, the liquid adhered to the first roller 101 can stick to the flour from the flour discharge port.

[0064] In one embodiment, the fourth groove wall 201d includes two parts: a vertical part 201d1 and an inclined part 201d2. The vertical part 201d1 is perpendicular to the rotation direction of the first roller 101, and the inclined part 201d2 is inclined from one end of the vertical part 201d1 toward the first roller 101.

[0065] In a specific implementation, the projection of the flour discharge port on the first roller 101 does not exceed the highest point of the first roller 101 perpendicular to the transmission direction of the dough belt 30, thereby allowing the flour to tilt in the same direction rather than in multiple directions.

[0066] Specifically, refer to Figure 2 The first groove wall 201a can be set to surround the edge of the flour discharge port, and the projection on the first roller 101 does not exceed the highest point of the first roller 101 in the direction perpendicular to the transmission direction of the dough belt 30. In this way, the flour in the flour storage groove 201 will tilt toward the fourth groove wall 201d.

[0067] In a specific implementation, the flour feeding assembly 20 may further include: a first scraper 202 , wherein the first scraper 202 is disposed on the trough wall of the flour storage trough 201 and extends toward the first roller 101 .

[0068] Specifically, refer to Figure 2 Assuming that the first roller 101 rotates in the counterclockwise direction, a first scraper 202 can be provided on the first slot wall 201a of the flour storage slot 201, and the first end of the first scraper 202 can be fixed on the first slot wall 201a, and the first scraper 202 can extend from the first slot wall 201a to the direction of the first roller 101. The second end of the first scraper 202 is close to the surface of the first roller 101, and there is a certain gap between the first scraper 202 and the surface of the first roller 101, and the second end of the first scraper 202 is opposite to the first end. In this way, the first scraper 202 can remove the excessively thick flour on the surface of the first roller 101, and prevent the excessive flour from adhering to the surface of the first roller 101, causing waste and affecting the quality of the dough strip.

[0069] In a specific implementation, the width of the first scraper 202, i.e., the distance from the first end to the second end of the first scraper 202, can be set according to the distance between the edge of the flour discharge port surrounded by the first groove wall 201a and the first roller 101. The length of the first scraper 202 can be less than or equal to the length of the first groove wall 201a, and the position of the first scraper 202 on the first groove wall 201a can be adjusted according to the position on the surface of the first roller 101 where liquid is easily adhered. There is a gap between the second end of the first scraper 202 and the first roller 101, and the gap range is (0, 10mm].

[0070] In a specific implementation, the gap between the second end of the first scraper 202 and the surface of the first roller 101 can be fixedly set according to actual needs.

[0071] In one embodiment, the gap between the second end of the first scraper 202 and the first roller 101 is adjustable. In practical applications, the gap between the second end of the first scraper 202 and the first roller 101 can be adjusted according to the actual amount of flour on the surface of the first roller 101.

[0072] Specifically, a scraper driving assembly may be provided on the first groove wall 201 a to drive the first scraper 202 to move along the surface of the first groove wall 201 a , thereby changing the gap between the second end of the first scraper 202 and the first roller 101 .

[0073] In other embodiments, multiple clamping positions may be symmetrically arranged on both sides of the first groove wall 201 a , and the first scraper 202 may be fixed at different clamping positions to change the gap between the second end of the first scraper 202 and the first roller 101 .

[0074] In one embodiment, Figure 3 yes Figure 1 Top view of the calendering equipment. Figure 3 The flour feeding assembly 20 may further include: a stirring structure 203 located in the flour storage trough 201 , and the stirring structure 203 moves along the rotation direction of the calendering assembly 10 to stir the flour in the flour storage trough 201 .

[0075] In a specific implementation, the stirring structure 203 may include a stirring shaft 203a fixed on the second groove wall 201b and the third groove wall 201c, and a stirring paddle 203b arranged circumferentially along the stirring shaft 203a. The stirring shaft 203a is rotatable, and when the stirring shaft 203a rotates, the stirring paddle 203b can be driven to move circumferentially along the stirring shaft 203a. The stirring shaft 203a can be arranged at a position close to the fourth groove wall 201d, so that when the flour is tilted toward the fourth groove wall 201d, the flour can be stirred to prevent the flour from bridging or hanging.

[0076] In some embodiments, reference Figure 2 The flour supply assembly 20 may further include a flour position sensor 204 , which may be installed in the flour storage trough 201 to monitor the amount of flour in the flour storage trough 201 .

[0077] In a specific implementation, the flour position sensor 204 can be implemented by a sensor. The flour position sensor 204 can be located at a position above the highest point of the stirring structure 203 on the second groove wall 201b and the third groove wall 201c along the direction perpendicular to the dough strip.

[0078] In one embodiment, the flour position sensor 204 may include: a signal transmitting end and a signal receiving end, wherein the signal transmitting end may be arranged on the second slot wall 201b, and the signal receiving end may be arranged on the third slot wall 201c. The signal transmitting end may continuously send a signal to the signal receiving end, and the signal receiving end may receive the signal sent by the signal transmitting end.

[0079] Specifically, when the amount of flour in the flour storage tank 201 is lower than the position of the signal receiving end, the signal receiving end is exposed to the flour, and the signal receiving end can receive the signal. After receiving the signal, the signal receiving end can output a prompt signal to prompt the user to add flour to the flour storage tank 201 to prevent the flour in the flour storage tank 201 from being too little and affecting the quality of the dough. There is no limitation on the specific output method of the prompt signal. For example, the prompt signal can be output by lighting a light or by voice.

[0080] In actual applications, when the calendering component 10 performs a calendering operation on the dough strip 30, a little oil and a little water will adhere to the calendering component 10, specifically to the first roller 101 of the calendering component 10. Performing a calendering operation on the dough strip 30 after the oil and water adhere to the first roller 101 will affect the integrity of the dough strip 30, thereby affecting the product's production capacity.

[0081] In some applications, in order to enhance the flavor of the product, green onion tubes are sprinkled on the dough belt 30, and when the calendering assembly 10 performs the calendering operation on the dough belt 30, a small amount of green onion tubes will also adhere to the first roller 101. After the green onion tubes are adhered to the first roller 101, the calendering operation is performed on the dough belt 30, which will affect the smoothness of the green onion tubes falling everywhere and calendering, thereby affecting the production capacity of the product.

[0082] In view of this problem, in one embodiment of the present invention, the calendering device may further include: a cleaning component for performing a cleaning operation on the calendering component 10. The cleaning component can remove most of the excess material adhering to the calendering component 10. The excess material includes but is not limited to oil, water, green onion tubes, etc. The remaining excess material (mainly liquid excess material) is then adhered to the flour through the flour storage tank 201, so that the flour absorbs or even absorbs the liquid excess material to ensure smooth calendering.

[0083] In a specific implementation, the cleaning component may be implemented in a variety of ways, which are not limited here.

[0084] In one embodiment, referring to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The cleaning component includes: a blade 401 and a recovery groove 402, wherein the blade 401 is used to remove excess material on the calendering component 10, and the recovery groove 402 is used to recover the excess material.

[0085] Specifically, the blade 401 may be located at one side of the first roller 101. During cleaning, the blade edge of the blade 401 may contact the surface of the first roller 101 and be located in the tangent direction of the first roller 101, thereby dropping the excess material from the surface of the first roller 101. The recovery groove 402 is usually located below the blade 401, and the excess material dropped by the blade 401 can fall into the recovery groove 402, thereby avoiding contamination of other components.

[0086] In a specific implementation, the dimension of the first groove wall 201a in the direction perpendicular to the dough strip 30 is substantially the same as the dimension of the vertical portion 201d1 in the direction perpendicular to the dough strip 30. Relative to the first groove wall 201a, the inclined portion 201d2 of the fourth groove wall 201d approaches the first roller 101, and the distance therebetween is between about 1 mm and 3 mm. The blade 401 is disposed below the point B on the surface of the first roller 101, and the line connecting the point B and the center of the first roller 101 is in the horizontal direction.

[0087] During actual production operation, a small amount of flour will fall downward through the gap between the inclined portion 201d2 and the first roller 101 due to its own gravity, and finally fall into the area enclosed between the blade 401 and the first roller 101. Since the gap between the blade 401 and the first roller 101 is small enough, most of the excess material adhering to the first roller 101 can be removed, and the remaining liquid excess material first adheres to the flour falling in the area enclosed between the blade 401 and the first roller 101, and then adheres to the flour again through the flour storage tank 201, thereby improving the flour adsorption effect and ensuring that the calendering assembly 10 is smooth and bright.

[0088] In one embodiment of the present invention, the material spreading equipment may include:

[0089] A material storage component, used for storing lightweight additives;

[0090] And a material distribution component is used for automatically spreading the light additive stored in the material storage component onto the dough belt.

[0091] The light additive refers to low-density wet materials (such as green onion tubes, etc.) or irregular dry materials (such as seaweed flakes, coconut flakes, coconut shreds, pork floss shreds, etc.). The density of the light additive is less than 0.7g / cm 3 .

[0092] By adopting the above-mentioned spreading equipment, it is possible to automatically spread the lightweight additive on the surface of the dough strip, thereby improving the spreading efficiency and thus improving the production efficiency.

[0093] In a specific implementation, the material storage component and the material distribution component can have a variety of structures, which are not limited here.

[0094] Figure 4 It is a schematic diagram of the three-dimensional structure of the material spreading equipment in one embodiment of the utility model. Figure 5 for Figure 4 Side view of the medium spreading equipment.

[0095] Reference Figure 4 and Figure 5 In one embodiment, the material spreading equipment includes: a material storage component 50 and a material distribution component 60.

[0096] In a specific implementation, the material storage component 50 is used to store light additives, such as green onion tubes, seaweed flakes, coconut flakes, coconut shreds or pork floss shreds, etc. The cloth component 60 automatically sprinkles the light additives stored in the material storage component 50 onto the dough belt 30 .

[0097] In a specific implementation, the material storage component 50 may include an additive material storage trough 501, and the additive material storage trough 501 may include a trough wall, and an additive material discharge port surrounded by the trough wall, and the stored lightweight additive is transferred to the fabric component 60 through the additive material discharge port; the edge of the additive material discharge port is in contact with the surface of the fabric component 60.

[0098] Specifically, the multiple slot walls of the additive storage slot 501 are connected in sequence to form a storage cavity. One end of the storage cavity is an additive feed port formed by the first edges of each slot wall, and the other end is an additive discharge port formed by the second edges of each slot wall, and the first edge is opposite to the second edge. The light additive can be stored in the storage cavity through the additive feed port.

[0099] In a specific implementation, the additive material outlet can be arranged in a variety of ways, which are not limited here.

[0100] In one embodiment, the size of the additive outlet can be fixed, that is, the size of the additive outlet is pre-set according to the characteristics of the lightweight additive and the distribution requirements on the dough strip. In this case, the size of the additive outlet is not adjustable.

[0101] In one embodiment, the size of the additive discharge port can be adjusted to meet more material spreading requirements, including lightweight additives with more characteristics and more distribution requirements on the dough strip. At this time, the size of the additive discharge port is adjustable.

[0102] Specifically, refer to Figure 4 and Figure 5 The material storage component 50 may further include: an opening adjustment structure 502, located on the slot wall of the additional material storage slot 501, and the gap between the opening adjustment structure 502 and the material distribution component 60 is adjustable.

[0103] Specifically, the first end of the opening adjustment structure 502 can be connected to the slot wall of the additive material storage slot 501, and the second end and other slot walls of the additive material storage slot 501 form an additive material outlet.

[0104] In a specific implementation, the first end of the opening adjustment structure 502 can be connected to the slot wall of the additive material storage slot 501, and the opening adjustment structure 502 can move along the extension direction of the slot wall of the additive material storage slot 501, thereby changing the gap between the edge of the opening adjustment structure 502 close to one end of the cloth component 60 and the cloth component 60, thereby adjusting the amount of the lightweight additive added.

[0105] In one embodiment, the opening adjustment structure 502 may include: a second scraper and a second scraper connector. The second scraper is arranged to fit the wall of the additive storage tank 501, and can move along the extension direction of the wall of the additive storage tank 501 through the second scraper connector. The edge of the second scraper close to one end of the material distribution assembly 60 is relatively thin, and the thickness of the second scraper gradually increases from the additive outlet to the additive inlet, thereby ensuring the reliability of the second scraper connection without affecting the stability of the amount of light additive added.

[0106] Specifically, a track can be set on the wall of the additional material storage trough 501, and the second scraper connecting member can slide along the track, thereby driving the second scraper to move along the extension direction of the wall of the additional material storage trough 501, so that the gap size between the second scraper and the cloth assembly 60 will change.

[0107] In one embodiment, in order to improve the material spreading efficiency, the opening adjustment structure 502 may further include: a second scraper driving member connected to the second scraper connecting member, used to drive the second scraper connecting member to move along the extension direction of the trough wall of the additional material storage trough 501.

[0108] Specifically, the second scraper driving member can be set as a motor, and the motor shaft of the motor can be connected to the second scraper connecting member, so as to drive the second scraper connecting member to move, and finally drive the second scraper to move along the extension direction of the groove wall of the additive storage groove 501, so as to adjust the gap size between the second scraper and the cloth assembly 60.

[0109] In a specific implementation, the material spreading device may further include a controller, which is connected to the second scraper driving member and sends a control signal to the second scraper driving member to control the movement path of the second scraper to adjust the gap between the second scraper and the material distribution component 60. Specifically, the controller may have a control panel, and the gap between the second scraper and the material distribution component 60 is adjusted by pressing "+" or "-" on the control panel, thereby adjusting the amount of the light additive.

[0110] In one embodiment, referring to Figure 4 and Figure 5 The cloth component 60 may include: a transmission structure 601 and a cloth structure 602; wherein the transmission structure 601 is located below the storage component 50, and is used to transport the lightweight additive output by the storage component 50; the cloth structure 602 is located at the rear end of the transmission structure 601, and is used to scatter the lightweight additive transported by the transmission structure 601 onto the dough belt 30.

[0111] In a specific implementation, the transmission structure 601 may include a transmission belt, and the upper surface of the transmission belt may fit with the edge of the additive discharge port.

[0112] In a specific implementation, the transmission structure 601 may further include a transmission assembly. Specifically, the transmission assembly may drive the transmission belt to move below the additive storage tank 501 along the transmission direction of the dough belt 30, so that when the transmission belt passes through the additive storage tank 501, the light additive stored in the additive storage tank 501 may be transferred from the additive outlet to the transmission belt under the action of gravity for transmission.

[0113] In a specific implementation, the length of the conveyor belt can be set according to the size of the additive outlet and the position of the cloth structure 602, so that the conveyor belt can transport the lightweight additive output from the additive outlet and transfer all of it to the cloth structure 602.

[0114] In a specific implementation, the cloth structure 602 is located at the rear end of the transmission structure 601, specifically, at the rear end of the conveyor belt. In this way, the light additives transported on the conveyor belt will fall onto the cloth structure 602, thereby achieving the transfer of the light additives.

[0115] In a specific implementation, the material distribution structure 602 may only include a slope distributor 6021, which spans the dough belt 30 and has a certain inclination angle relative to the dough belt 30. When the light additive on the conveyor belt falls on the slope distributor 6021, since the slope distributor 6021 is inclined, the light additive can slide from the inclined surface of the slope distributor 6021 to the dough belt 30 below, thereby spreading the material on the dough belt 30.

[0116] In a specific implementation, the inclination angle of the slope distributor 6021 relative to the dough belt 30 can be fixed.

[0117] In one embodiment, the inclination angle of the slope distributor 6021 relative to the dough belt 30 is adjustable.

[0118] Specifically, the slope feeder 6021 may include: a slope angle adjustment unit 6021a and a feed unit 6021b, wherein the slope angle adjustment unit 6021a is used to support the feed unit 6021b to adjust the inclination angle of the feed unit 6021b relative to the dough belt 30; the feed unit 6021b spans the dough belt 30 and is used to transfer the received lightweight additive to the dough belt 30.

[0119] In a specific implementation, the material distribution unit 6021b has a material distribution plate, and the material distribution plate has a material distribution surface, and the material distribution surface can be connected with the conveyor belt, so as to receive the light additive material dropped from the conveyor belt. For example, the end of the material distribution plate can be adjusted so that the material distribution surface is partially located below the conveyor belt, and the gap between the material distribution surface and the conveyor belt can be made small enough so as not to affect the operation of the conveyor belt.

[0120] In a specific implementation, the slope angle adjustment unit 6021a can provide sufficient support force for the fabric plate. The slope angle adjustment unit 6021a can include a slope support plate a1 and an angle adjustment module a2 connected to the slope support plate, the slope support plate a1 is connected to the fabric plate, and the angle adjustment module a2 can be connected to the slope support plate a1. The angle adjustment module a2 can be used to adjust the inclination angle of the slope support plate a1 relative to the face belt 30. The slope support plate a1 can be arranged in parallel with the fabric plate and move synchronously with the fabric plate.

[0121] In a specific implementation, the material distribution plate can be directly arranged on the surface of the slope support plate a1.

[0122] In some embodiments, the cloth plate and the slope support plate a1 can be connected by an elastic member. For example, a plurality of springs a3 can be arranged on the slope support plate a1. The springs a3 are evenly distributed around the slope support plate a1. One end of the spring a3 is connected to the slope support plate a1, and the other end is connected to the cloth plate. Thus, with the help of the springs a3, the slope support plate a1 can provide elastic support for the cloth plate.

[0123] In a specific implementation, the angle adjustment module a2 can be manually adjusted to adjust the inclination angle of the slope support plate a1.

[0124] In one embodiment, in order to improve the material spreading efficiency, the angle adjustment module a2 can be connected to a controller, and the controller can receive angle adjustment information input on a control panel, and control the angle adjustment module a2 based on the information, so that the slope support plate a1 is adjusted to a corresponding inclination angle.

[0125] In a specific implementation, there may be two angle adjustment modules a2 symmetrically distributed on both sides of the slope support plate a1 , and the angle of the slope support plate a1 is adjusted synchronously by both sides.

[0126] The inventors have found that when the lightweight additive slides from the slope distributor 6021 to the dough belt 30 relying solely on its own gravity, the lightweight additive often stagnates on the surface of the slope distributor 6021 due to its low density and cannot slide smoothly, thereby affecting the uniformity of the spreading.

[0127] To address this problem, in one embodiment of the present invention, in order to improve the spreading effect of the lightweight additive, the material distribution structure 602 may further include an oscillator 6022, which is connected to the slope distributor 6021 and is used to drive the slope distributor 6021 to vibrate. With the elastic support of the spring a3, the slope distributor 6021 vibrates more fully. The oscillator 6022 vibrates in a direction perpendicular to the material distribution surface, so that the lightweight additive on the material distribution surface can slide down more quickly.

[0128] In a specific implementation, the oscillator 6022 may be located below the ramp distributor 6021. Specifically, the oscillator 6022 may be located on the ramp support plate a1, and the other end of the oscillator 6022 may be connected to the distribution plate. The oscillator 6022 may have a fixed oscillation frequency and amplitude, and when the switch of the oscillator 6022 is turned on, the oscillator 6022 may drive the distribution plate to vibrate according to the fixed oscillation frequency and amplitude.

[0129] In some embodiments, the oscillator 6022 may also be connected to a controller, and the controller controls the oscillation frequency and amplitude and drives the oscillator. The controller may adjust at least one of the oscillation frequency and amplitude according to the characteristics of the light additive and the distribution requirements on the dough strip, so that the vibration of the oscillator 6022 matches the current material spreading requirements. For example, when the density of the light additive is high, the oscillation frequency may be increased. When the density of the light additive is low, the amplitude may be increased.

[0130] In a specific implementation, the number of the oscillators 6022 can be set according to actual needs.

[0131] In one embodiment, the number of the oscillator 6022 may be only one, and the only oscillator 6022 may be disposed on the central area of ​​the slope support plate a1 and in contact with the distribution plate.

[0132] In one embodiment, the number of oscillators 6022 can be set to two, and the two oscillators 6022 are located on the slope support plate a1 and in contact with the material distribution plate. Furthermore, they are symmetrically distributed relative to the central area of ​​the slope support plate a1, so that each position of the material distribution plate can vibrate uniformly, which can not only improve the vibration efficiency but also improve the uniformity of material spreading.

[0133] In a specific implementation, the production system may further include a base, and the material spreading device and the calendering device are both fixed on the base.

[0134] Specifically, the first roller 101 and the second roller 102 can span the base and be fixed to the two side walls of the base through corresponding connectors. The flour storage trough 201 can span the base and be fixed to the two side walls of the base through corresponding connectors. The blade 401 and the recovery trough 402 can also span the base and be fixed to the two side walls of the base through corresponding connectors. The additional material storage trough 501 can span the base and be fixed to the two side walls of the base through corresponding connectors. The transmission structure 601 can span the base and be fixed to the two side walls of the base through corresponding connectors. The angle adjustment module a2 can be fixed on the base and support the cloth plate. The cloth plate spans the dough belt 30. The width of the conveyor belt and the cloth plate can be set according to the width of the dough belt 30. Usually, the width of the conveyor belt and the cloth plate is about 95% of the width of the dough belt.

[0135] In a specific implementation, the gap between the end of the second scraper close to the additive outlet and the conveyor belt is in the range of (0, 50 mm], which can be adjusted according to the amount of light additive added. The angle between the cloth plate and the dough belt 30 is in the range of [30°, 60°], which can be adjusted according to the characteristics and density of the light additive.

[0136] In a specific implementation, the controller is connected to the transmission structure 601 and the fabric structure 602, thereby controlling not only the transmission speed of the transmission structure 601 but also the oscillation frequency and amplitude of the fabric structure 602. The controller can also be connected to the opening adjustment structure 502 to adjust the gap between the opening adjustment structure 502 and the transmission structure 601.

[0137] Specifically, the controller can receive external input information and control the spreading equipment according to the external input information. For example, it can adjust the transmission speed of the transmission structure 601, the oscillation frequency and amplitude of the oscillator 6022, the gap between the opening adjustment structure 502 and the transmission structure 601, etc.

[0138] The combined use diagram of the material spreading device and the calendering device is as follows: Figure 6 shown.

[0139] Taking the production process of biscuits as an example, in addition to the spreading equipment and the calendering equipment, the production system may also include: a mixing device, a fermentation device, an extrusion device, a laminating device, a molding device, a baking device, etc. Among them, the mixing device can stir the flour to form a dough. The fermentation device can ferment the dough. After fermentation, the dough is extruded by the extrusion device to form an initial continuous dough band, which is cut and laminated to obtain a laminated dough band. The production system can usually include a multi-channel calendering device, which can perform a calendering operation on the laminated dough band. Between the last calendering operation and the second to last calendering operation, the spreading device in the embodiment of the utility model can be used to sprinkle green onion tubes on the dough band. After the last calendering operation is completed, the calendered dough band can be processed by the molding device, for example, by cutting the dough band to form a dough band product of a specific shape. The dough band product of the specific shape can be baked by the baking device to obtain the final biscuit product.

[0140] It should be noted that the green onion tube in the embodiment of the utility model refers to the green onion segment formed after fresh green onions are picked, washed, cut off the green onion, cut the green onion into small segments, dried, and air-dried, with a length of 3mm to 6mm. The light additive in the embodiment of the utility model includes but is not limited to the green onion tube, and can also be seaweed flakes, coconut flakes, coconut shreds or pork floss shreds.

[0141] As can be seen from the above content, the production system in the embodiment of the utility model, by setting a flour feeding component in the calendering device, the flour provided by the flour feeding component can absorb the liquid on the calendering component, so that the calendering component remains smooth and bright, and the damage of the dough strip is reduced, thereby improving the production capacity. At the same time, the spreading device is set between the last calendering process and the penultimate calendering process of the dough strip. The use of the spreading device can realize automatic spreading, which can improve the spreading efficiency and be more uniform compared to manual spreading, thereby improving production efficiency. In addition, the light additive is sprinkled on the surface of the dough strip, which can make the light additive visually visible, and the product is more beautiful and has a richer flavor.

[0142] Although the utility model is disclosed as above, the utility model is not limited thereto. Any person skilled in the art can make various changes and modifications without departing from the spirit and scope of the utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of the utility model shall be subject to the scope defined by the claims.
