[0023] (III) Beneficial Effects

[0024] One of the above technical solutions has the following advantages or beneficial effects:

[0025] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, which, despite having automated dough rolling and pressing equipment, still require manual handling of the dough between different machines, and where steps such as adding and mixing butter, slicing and plating bread, and fermenting in the fermentation room still require manual operation, resulting in low automation, high labor intensity, and inconvenience for continuous production, a new technology is proposed. This technology features an automated conveyor belt system for transporting dough, along with automatic rolling, pressing, butter addition and kneading, folding and turning, cooling, adding fillings, slicing, rolling, automatic plating and shelving, and automatic loading / unloading. The automatic bread production line, featuring mechanisms for lowering the lid, baking, and rotary conveying, achieves a higher level of automation. Only a small amount of manual labor is required for unloading finished products, cleaning baking trays and their lids, and pushing entire racks of bread in and out of the fermentation room. This eliminates the inconvenience of manual tray loading, whole-bread fermentation and racking, and kneading, and also eliminates the need for frequent manual movement between equipment, greatly increasing production efficiency. At the same time, the dough undergoes multiple rolling and freezing processes, which delays fermentation and ensures that the dough can be better kneaded before fermentation, preventing the problem of over-fermentation of the dough due to insufficient kneading during automated production.

[0059] The temperature of the first freezing line 1e is set to -16°C, and the temperature of the second freezing line 1r is set to -12°C.

[0060] Implementation Plan: During equipment operation, the dough is first pre-pressed into a strip shape by the hexagonal roller shaping machine 1b and the dough pre-pressing machine 1c on the first production line 1. The dough is then conveyed to the first freezing line 1e for freezing. Freezing delays fermentation. After being discharged, the frozen dough is shaped and kneaded by the hexagonal roller shaping machine 1b, and then rolled by two sets of dough rolling machines 1f and kneading and pressing machines 1g to ensure thorough kneading. A layer of butter is then applied to the dough through the nozzle 1h2 of the butter application device 1h. As the dough is conveyed, it enters the side-flipping device 1i along the conveying direction. The side of the dough is then pulled onto the side-flipping conveyor belt 1i3. With the expansion of the side-flipping guide plate 1i7 and the force of gravity, the dough gradually moves away from the side-flipping conveyor belt 1i3, folding upwards along the arc surface of the side-flipping guide plate 1i7 to cover the dough, thus achieving butter coating. Then, the dough is rolled and kneaded by a dough rolling machine 1f and a dough kneading and pressing machine 1g. The dough is also folded and conveyed by a reversing and turning device 1j to allow for better kneading. During the turning process, the dough can be pulled and folded by adjusting the swing of the turning assembly plate 1j5 by the motor 1j3 to make the subsequent kneading more even. After being rolled and pressed by multiple dough rolling machines 1f and dough kneading and pressing machines 1g, the dough is first sent to the second freezing line 1r for secondary cooling and freezing to prevent the dough from fermenting prematurely during the automatic production process. After the secondary freezing, the dough is rolled flat and then cut into appropriate strips. After the small strips are cut, the filling material can be added through the nozzle 1h2 of the filling coating device 1m. The filling material can be evenly spread by the filling spreading plate 1n. Then, the dough is rolled into rolls by the guide roller 1o and the conveyor belt to wrap the filling material. Finally, it can be cut into pieces by the block cutter 1p.

[0061] After being cut into pieces, the bread pieces are separated by a suitable distance by the speed difference of the differential conveyor belt 1q, and then enter the tray conveyor belt 1s. When the bread is conveyed above the baking tray 7, the tray conveyor belt 1s can use the telescopic pump rod 1s7 to drive the second guide roller 1s8 to pull the conveyor belt body 1s2, so that the conveyor belt body 1s2 drives the first guide roller 1s1 to press against the telescopic frame 1s4 to retract, so that the bread pieces above the baking tray 7 will fall into the baking tray. Then the second guide roller 1s8 is retracted, and the first guide roller 1s1 is pressed against the protective baffle 1j4 by the compression spring 1s5 to extend. This process is repeated to achieve automatic traying.

[0062] After being automatically loaded onto the baking tray, the bread pieces are conveyed along with the baking tray 7 by the first baking tray conveyor belt 1t to the positioning conveyor belt 1u1 of the automatic racking equipment 1u. The positioning conveyor belt 1u1 transports the baking tray 7 to the appropriate position, and then the lifting motor 1u8 drives the circulating lifting chain 1u9 to perform a lifting cycle. This causes the pallet assembly plate 1u7 mounted on the circulating lifting chain 1u9 to lift the baking tray 7 via the docking structure 7a of the first pallet 1u2. After lifting an appropriate amount of baking tray, the moving frame 1u18 is assembled into the moving frame assembly plate 1u22 via the top pin. During assembly, the side protective wheels 1u17 reduce impacts. Then, [the process continues]. The lifting pump rod 1u10 raises the moving frame assembly plate 1u19, which in turn raises the moving frame 1u18. During the lifting and lowering process, the lifting protective side wheel 1u20 and the limiting cover plate 1u21 of the moving frame assembly plate 1u19 can make its lifting and lowering more stable. When the moving frame 1u18 is raised to the level of the corresponding second tray 1u13 and the first tray 1u2, the push plate 1u6 can be pushed out by the push plate motor 1u5 and the push structure 1u4, so that the push plate 1u6 pushes the baking tray 7 on the first tray 1u2 onto the second tray 1u13 for assembly, realizing the automatic loading of the baking tray 7. Then, the manual labor only needs to push the whole rack of bread pieces into the fermentation room 2 for fermentation.

[0063] After fermentation, the movable frame 1u18 can be pushed to the movable frame assembly plate 1u22 of the automatic unloading device 3e for assembly. Then, the pusher motor 1u5 and the pusher structure 1u4 of the automatic unloading device 3e push the baking tray 7 onto the first support plate 1u2 of the automatic unloading device 3e. The reverse-rotating circulating lifting chain 1u9 of the automatic unloading device 3e lowers the baking tray 7 onto the positioning conveyor belt 1u1 of the automatic unloading device 3e, and then transports it to the second baking tray conveyor belt 3c via the positioning conveyor belt 1u1. The baking tray 7 on the second baking tray conveyor belt 3c will have its lid added via the top cover loading and unloading rack 3d, and then it will be transported again and pushed onto the baking conveyor belt 3b via the pusher 6 for baking. The baked baking tray 7 is then pushed onto the third baking tray conveyor belt 3h via the pusher 6. During the transport process, the top cover of the baking tray 7 will be removed by the second top cover loading and unloading rack 3d. After the top cover is removed by adsorption, the second top cover loading and unloading rack 3d will place the removed top cover on the top cover rotary conveyor belt 3f for rotary conveying at the top cover addition point. The baking tray 7 with the top cover removed is pushed to the cooling conveyor belt 4a by the tray pusher 6 for cooling, and then pushed to the unloading conveyor belt 4b by the tray pusher 6 for discharge. The baking tray 7 with bread removed is pushed to the baking tray rotary conveyor belt 5 by the tray pusher 6 for rotary conveying of the first baking tray conveyor belt 1t, forming a complete circulating production line. Only a small amount of manpower is needed to clean the baking tray 7 and the top cover, as well as the conveying of fermentation in the fermentation room, the placement of dough, and the discharge of bread. The conveying in the fermentation room also adopts a mobile frame 1u12 with universal wheels 1u15 for whole-frame conveying, which is convenient and fast, enabling better automated production of bread, ensuring uniform kneading in automated production, preventing premature fermentation, eliminating the need for manual tray loading, and facilitating continuous production.
