In addition, the terms "first", "second", "third", etc., are only used for descriptive purposes and cannot be understood as indicating or implying relative importance. Example

[0031] Steamed noodle stripping device, please refer to Figures 2 to 5 ,include:

[0032] Rack 1;

[0033] a sprocket 3 meshing with the chain 2;

[0034] A motor (not shown) driving the sprocket 3 to rotate;

[0035] The chain 2, the tops of the inner and outer chain plates of the chain 2 form a horizontal plane supporting the support rod 12, so that the chain 2 can horizontally transport the support rod 12 under the action of the motor and the sprocket 3;

[0036] A supporting rod 12 with two ends movably placed on the chain 2 and used for folding and hanging noodles;

[0037] A separation roller 4, which is arranged at the end of the steamed noodle stripping rod (i.e., the end of the chain 2 conveying), and is used to pull the noodles to separate the noodles from the supporting rod 12;

[0038] The support rod limiting plate 6 is evenly arranged on the side of the chain 2 to prevent the support rod 12 from moving forward and backward when the noodles are separated;

[0039] The support rod pressing plate 7 is arranged at the end of the steamed noodle stripping rod, and is kept at a certain distance from the chain and the support rod. The support rod pressing plate 7 is used to limit the upward movement and left and right movement of the support rod when the noodle stripping rod is separated from the noodle;

[0040] In the above structure, firstly, the two ends of the supporting rod 12 are placed on the chain 2, so that a suitable number of supporting rods 12 are evenly arranged between the adjacent supporting rod limiting plates 6 on the chain 2, and then the steamed noodles are folded and hung on the supporting rod 12; at this time, the sprocket wheel 3 is driven by the motor to rotate, thereby driving the chain 2 to slowly transport forward horizontally, and then driving the supporting rod 12 and the noodles 14 hanging on the supporting rod to move toward the separating roller 4, that is, the supporting rod 12 and the noodles 14 hanging on the supporting rod 12 will arrive at the steaming noodle stripping rod end of the steaming noodle stripping device in sequence under the transportation of the chain 2; at the same time, since the steaming noodle stripping rod end is provided with a separating roller 4, the noodles 14 hanging on the separating roller 4 are Under the action of the drum 4, there will be a continuous traction force on the noodles that have reached the end position of the steamed noodle stripping rod. Since the noodles themselves have a certain toughness, the noodles will not be broken by the separation drum 4, but the force of the noodles will be transmitted to the supporting rod 12, and due to the blocking effect of the supporting rod limit plate 6, the supporting rod 12 cannot continue to move forward. At the same time, under the action of the supporting rod pressure plate 7, it cannot move upward and left and right. Since the supporting rod is still active within the restricted range, at this time, the noodles 14 pull the supporting rod 12, and due to the restrictions of other degrees of freedom, the supporting rod will rotate (roll on the chain 2), so that the noodles are separated from the supporting rod and enter the noodle cutting process.

[0041] Since the noodles 14 are separated from the supporting rod 12, i.e., the steamed noodles are removed from the rod, the noodles 14 are separated from the supporting rod at the end of the chain 2. Before the supporting rod 12 moves from the front end to the end (the steamed noodles removal end) of the conveying line, in order to prevent the noodles suspended on the supporting rod 12 from being entangled or stuck together, the supporting rod 12 on which the noodles are suspended needs to remain stable on the chain, i.e., it needs to be controlled that the supporting rod 12 does not move relative to the chain 2 (the supporting rod 12 does not roll or slide on the chain 2). When the supporting rod 12 moves to the end of the chain 2, i.e., when the supporting rod 12 reaches the steamed noodles removal end, it needs to be able to be active within a limited range (can roll on the chain 2) so that the noodles 14 can be separated from the supporting rod 12 smoothly. In order to solve the above problems, further, in a preferred embodiment, please refer to Figures 2 to 5 The steamed noodle stripping device of the present invention further comprises: a supporting rod positioning assembly 5, a sliding rod guide plate 8;

[0042] Among them, the support rod positioning assembly 5 is arranged between adjacent support rod limit plates 6 and is located on the side of the chain 2, so that the support rod positioning assembly 5 will not affect the sprocket 3 driving the chain 2; the support rod positioning assembly 5 is used to position the support rod 12 to prevent the support rod 12 from moving on the chain; the support rod positioning assembly 5 includes a U-shaped rod 501, a telescopic rod 502, a telescopic rod sleeve 503 fixedly arranged on the side of the chain 2, a slide rod 504 perpendicular to the side of the chain 2, and a spring 505; the telescopic rod 502 passes through the spring 505 and the telescopic rod sleeve 503 in sequence, and the upper end of the telescopic rod 502 is connected to the U-shaped rod 501, and the lower end is vertically connected to the slide rod 504; In the state, that is, when the slide bar 504 is not subjected to external force, due to the elastic force of the spring 505, the two ends of the U-shaped bar 501 protrude from the surface of the chain 2, so that the support rod 12 can be clamped at the two ends of the U-shaped bar 501 to position the support rod 12; due to mechanical vibration, it is difficult for the chain 2 to remain completely horizontal during the conveying process, or due to inertia when the chain 2 is just started, the support rod 12 may move on the chain 2, and the support rod positioning assembly 5 can prevent the support rod 12 from moving on the chain 2 with the movement of the chain 2, thereby preventing the noodles folded and hung on adjacent support rods from sticking to or entangled with each other due to the movement of the support rods;

[0043] The slide bar guide plate 8 is arranged at the end of the steaming noodle stripping rod and is located below the support rod pressure plate 7, and is used to press the slide bar 504 downward, that is, the slide bar guide plate 8 will not interfere with or affect the movement of the chain 2, and it will only contact the slide bar 504 to press the slide bar 504 downward; the slide bar guide plate 8 includes a downward pressing guide plate 801 arranged obliquely downward and a horizontal guide plate 802 arranged horizontally; the highest end of the downward pressing guide plate 801 is higher than the position of the slide bar, and the highest end of the downward pressing guide plate 801 is lower than the position of the U-shaped rod; the lowest end of the downward pressing guide plate 801 is connected to the horizontal guide plate 802;

[0044] Based on the above structure, when the device of the present invention is working, the two ends of the support rod 12 are placed on the corresponding positions of the support rod positioning assembly 5 set on the side of the chain 2, and the support rod 12 and the support rod positioning assembly 5 move toward the steaming noodle stripping end together with the conveying of the chain 2, and the support rod positioning assembly 5 can prevent the support rod 12 from moving relative to the chain 2 when moving forward; specifically, when the support rod positioning assembly 5 does not move to the steaming noodle stripping end, the slide bar 504 does not contact the slide bar guide plate 8, and the elastic force of the spring 505 acts When the chain 2 is used, the two ends of the U-shaped rod 501 protrude from the surface of the chain 2, so that the support rod 12 can be clamped at the two ends of the U-shaped rod 501 to position the support rod 12; and when the slide bar 504 contacts the slide bar guide plate 8, that is, when the support rod positioning assembly 5 moves with the chain 2 to the steaming noodle stripping end, because the slide bar 504 can drive the telescopic rod 502 and the U-shaped rod 501 to move downward, and can be reset under the action of the spring 505, the slide bar 504 will move along the slide bar guide plate as the chain 2 moves 8 slides, that is, the slide bar 504 first slides along the lower surface of the downward pressure guide plate 801, so that the slide bar 504 is gradually pressed down to the lowest point, and then the telescopic rod 502 and the U-shaped rod 501 are successively driven down, and finally the two ends of the U-shaped rod 501 are lower than the surface of the chain 2 (the top of the inner and outer chain plates), so that the support rod 12 is not clamped by the two ends of the U-shaped rod 501, and then the slide bar 504 continues to slide along the lower surface of the horizontal guide plate 802, so that the slide bar 504 slides at the lowest point for a period of time; during the sliding process of the slide bar 504 along the lower surface of the horizontal guide plate 802, the support rod 12 is not restricted by the support rod positioning assembly 5. At this time, due to the effects of the separation roller 4, the support rod limiting plate 6, and the support rod pressing plate 7, the noodles can be smoothly separated from the support rod and enter the noodle cutting process; finally, the slide bar 504 will separate from the horizontal guide plate 802, and at the same time, with the help of the elastic force of the spring 505, the support rod positioning assembly 5 will return to its initial position, so that the support rod 12 can be placed at the position of the support rod positioning assembly 5 again.

[0045] Further, in order to allow the slide bar 504 to be slowly reset, in a preferred embodiment, refer to Figure 4 The slide bar guide plate 8 also includes a rising guide plate 803 that is arranged obliquely upward, the lowest end of the rising guide plate 803 is connected to the horizontal guide plate 802, and the highest end is flush with the position of the slide bar 504.

[0046] Further, in a preferred embodiment, see Figure 2 , Figure 3 The separation drum 4 includes a first separation drum 401 , a second separation drum 402 , and a third separation drum 403 ; the first separation drum 401 and the second separation drum 402 are located at the same horizontal position, and the bottom of the third separation drum 403 is flush with the top of the second separation drum 402 .

[0047] Further, in order to reduce the resistance of the slide bar 504 when sliding on the lower surface of the slide bar guide plate 8, in a preferred embodiment, refer to Figure 4 , Figure 5 , a roller 5041 is provided on the slide bar 504 .

[0048] Because the supporting rods 12 enter the steamed noodle stripping end one by one under the conveyance of the chain 2, or in other words, the supporting rods 12 are separated from the noodles one by one, therefore, after the supporting rods 12 that are not separated from the noodles enter the steamed noodle supporting rod end, it is only necessary that the current supporting rod 12 is not restricted by the supporting rod positioning assembly 5, while other supporting rods 12 that are not separated from the noodles are still positioned by the supporting rod positioning assembly 5 on the chain 2 and will not roll or move on the chain 2. To solve this problem, further, in a preferred embodiment, the length of the horizontal guide plate 802 is the same as the spacing between adjacent supporting rod positioning assemblies 5, so that only the sliding rod 504 of the current supporting rod positioning assembly 5 that enters the steamed noodle supporting rod end can be controlled to slide on the lower surface of the horizontal guide plate 802, so that only the supporting rod 12 that enters the steamed noodle supporting rod end can be free from the restriction of the supporting rod positioning assembly 5, while the supporting rod 12 that moves toward the steamed noodle stripping end but does not enter the steamed noodle stripping end is still positioned by the supporting rod positioning assembly 5.

[0049] Further, in order to facilitate the recovery and reuse of the support rod 12, in a preferred embodiment, please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 The steamed noodle stripping device of the present invention also includes: a supporting rod guide groove 9; the supporting rod guide groove 9 is arranged below the supporting rod falling end and tangent to the sprocket 3, but will not interfere with the rotation of the sprocket, and is used to receive the supporting rod transmitted from the chain.

[0050] Further, in order to facilitate the recovery and reuse of the support rod 12, in a preferred embodiment, please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 The steamed noodle stripping device of the present invention further comprises: a supporting rod receiving box 10 connected to the supporting rod guide groove 9.
