Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of food processing equipment, and in particular to a peanut food forming machine and a use method thereof. Background Art

[0002] Peanut food is a series of delicious dishes and snacks made from peanuts as the main raw material, which are cooked and processed. It is widely loved by consumers. Through different processing methods and ingredient combinations, many creative and unique foods can be derived. One of the special processing methods is to coat the peanuts with puffing powder, heat and expand them into a sphere, and then press them into shape.

[0003] In order to improve the pressing effect of peanut food wrapped with spherical puffed powder, the peanut food is usually placed in the forming groove of the pressing platform, and then the spherical puffed powder is deformed to match the shape of the forming groove by applying pressure through the pressing plate. Then, after the pressing plate is away from the pressing platform, the peanut food in the forming groove needs to be ejected by the ejector rod. However, since the peanut food itself has a certain viscosity, there is a possibility that the ejector rod will bring the peanut food back into the groove when it is retracted into the forming groove, which increases the difficulty of collection and forces the peanut food to be removed from the ejector rod when the ejector rod is extended. The removal operation needs to be performed between the pressing plate and the pressing platform, so there is a safety hazard problem. As a result, the demoulding and collection process cannot be completed quickly. This cumbersome operation process slows down the overall pressing and forming speed, thereby weakening the advantages of this pressing and forming method. Based on this, the present invention purposely provides a peanut food forming machine and a method of using the same, which can ensure the pressing and forming effect of the peanut food while improving the pressing efficiency. Summary of the invention

[0004] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a peanut food forming machine and a method of using the same in order to solve the technical problems in the prior art.

[0005] The purpose of the present invention can be achieved through the following technical solutions: A peanut food forming machine, comprising: A gantry frame, in which a rotating rod is rotatably installed, and a conveyor belt is arranged below the gantry frame, a pressing platform is fixedly installed on the rotating rod, and the pressing platform is driven to rotate by an output source, a plurality of molding grooves arranged at equal intervals are opened on the pressing platform, and a blanking plate is slidably installed in each molding groove, and the molding groove is used to place peanut food, and a driving component, a transmission component and a linkage component are arranged in the pressing platform, and the driving component, the transmission component and the linkage component are connected; A carrying plate is slidably mounted in the pressing platform and fixedly connected to the plurality of forming grooves. The carrying plate is driven to move by a driving assembly. When the carrying plate is extended in the pressing platform, the unloading plate pushes out the peanut food in the forming grooves. When the carrying plate is retracted in the pressing platform, the unloading plate is retracted to the bottom of the forming grooves; and The pressing plate is slidably mounted on the gantry and is driven to rise and fall by the first driving source. When the pressing platform is located directly below the pressing plate, the pressing plate and the pressing platform cooperate to press the peanut food in the forming groove into shape. Then the output source drives the rotating rod to rotate 180 degrees. At this time, the forming groove on the pressing platform faces the conveyor belt, and during the rotation, the driving assembly drives the carrying plate to extend in the pressing platform. Then the first driving source drives the rotating rod to rotate 180 degrees, so that the pressing platform returns to its original position.

[0006] As a further solution of the present invention: one end of the blanking plate located in the forming groove is convex.

[0007] As a further solution of the present invention: the number of the pressing platforms is four, and the four pressing platforms are arranged circumferentially on the rotating rod.

[0008] As a further solution of the present invention: an extension platform is fixedly installed on the pressing plate, a first push plate is slidably installed in the extension platform, the first push plate is driven to move by the second driving source, and the first push plate is slidably matched with the bottom surface of the pressing plate.

[0009] As a further solution of the present invention: a fixed platform is fixedly installed on the frame of the conveyor belt, and a second push plate is slidably installed on the fixed platform. The second push plate is driven to move by a third driving source. When the forming groove on the pressing platform faces the conveyor belt, the third driving source drives the second push plate to move back and forth. At this time, the second push plate pushes the peanut food in the forming groove down.

[0010] As a further solution of the present invention: a fixed plate is fixedly installed on the frame of the conveyor belt, and a camera assembly is fixedly installed on the fixed plate. The camera assembly is connected to a third driving source. When the forming groove on the pressing platform faces the conveyor belt, the camera assembly captures whether there is peanut food in the forming groove. When there is peanut food in the forming groove, the camera assembly controls the third driving source to drive the second push plate to perform a reciprocating movement.

[0011] As a further solution of the present invention: the driving assembly includes a moving frame, an oblique groove, a round rod, a straight groove and a reciprocating screw. The moving frame is slidably installed in the pressing platform, and the reciprocating screw is rotatably installed in the pressing platform, and it is threadedly connected to the moving frame. When the pressing platform rotates around the rotating rod, the transmission assembly drives the reciprocating screw to rotate through the linkage assembly. Two straight grooves are respectively opened at both ends of the pressing platform, and two oblique grooves are respectively opened at both ends of the moving frame, and the oblique grooves are arranged obliquely. When the pressing platform is located directly below the pressing plate, the horizontal height of the round rod at the end farther from the axis of the rotating rod is higher than the horizontal height of the round rod at the end closer to the axis of the rotating rod. The two round rods are respectively slidably installed in the two straight grooves, and the round rods are slidably connected to the oblique grooves, and they are fixedly connected to the supporting plate.

[0012] As a further solution of the present invention: the transmission assembly includes an outer gear ring, a transmission gear, a transmission rod and a synchronous belt. The outer gear ring is sleeved on the rotating rod and is fixedly connected to the gantry. The transmission gear and the transmission rod are both rotatably installed on the pressing platform. The two are staggered and connected through a synchronous belt transmission. The transmission gear is meshed with the outer gear ring, and the transmission rod drives the reciprocating screw to rotate through a linkage assembly.

[0013] As a further solution of the present invention: the linkage assembly includes a driving bevel gear and a driven bevel gear, the driving bevel gear and the driven bevel gear are both rotatably installed in the pressing platform, the two are meshed, and the axes of the two are perpendicular, the driving bevel gear is coaxially fixedly connected to the transmission rod, and the driven bevel gear is coaxially fixedly connected to the bevel groove.

[0014] A method for using a peanut food forming machine, the method is applied to a peanut food forming machine as described above, the method comprising the following steps: Step S1: driving the rotating rod to rotate through the output source so that the pressing platform is located directly below the pressing plate, and then placing a peanut food in each forming groove; Step S2: the first driving source then drives the pressing plate to descend to press the peanut food into the shape of a forming groove; Step S3: The output source drives the rotating rod to rotate 180 degrees. During the rotation, the driving assembly drives the carrying plate to extend in the pressing platform. The carrying plate drives the unloading plate to push out the peanut food in the forming groove. After the rotating rod rotates 180 degrees, the forming groove faces downward toward the conveyor belt, and the pushed out peanut food falls onto the conveyor belt to be conveyed. Step S4: the output source is used to drive the rotating rod to rotate 180 degrees again, so that the pressing platform returns to its original position. During the rotation process, the driving assembly drives the carrying plate to shrink in the pressing platform, and the carrying plate drives the blanking plate to shrink to the bottom of the forming groove; Step S5: Repeat steps S1 to S4 to continuously press and shape the peanut food and automatically unload the peanut food.

[0015] Beneficial effects of the present invention: 1. In the present invention, by arranging the pressing platform on a rotatable rotating rod, after pressing and forming, the pressing platform can be flipped to the other side of the rotating rod by rotating the rotating rod. At this time, the forming groove is downwardly facing the conveyor belt, and during the flipping of the pressing platform, the unloading plate arranged in the forming groove will gradually push the pressed peanut food out of the forming groove. Under the action of gravity, the peanut food is more likely to be separated from the forming groove and also more likely to fall off the unloading plate. In addition, during the process of the rotating rod driving the pressing platform to flip, the peanut food is also affected by centrifugal force, which accelerates the peeling of the peanut food from the unloading plate. There is no need to push the finished product sunken in the forming groove out of the place where it is collected manually, so that the peanut food is easier to be separated from the forming groove and the unloading plate, thereby improving production efficiency and reducing the need for manual intervention. 2. In the present invention, the efficiency of forming the pressed peanut food can be improved by setting four pressing platforms, and when the peanut food on one side is pressed by the pressing plate, the peanut food on the other side can be unloaded onto the conveyor belt for conveyance, thereby further improving the processing speed; 3. In the present invention, by providing a convex shape at one end of the blanking plate, a larger contact area is created between the bottom of the forming groove and the convexity of the blanking plate and the pressed peanut food, ensuring that the adsorption of the peanut food is greater than that of the pressing plate, thereby preventing the peanut food from being adsorbed on the pressing plate and detaching from the forming groove.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0019] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0020] See also Figure 1-Figure 10 As shown, the present invention is a peanut food forming machine, comprising: A gantry 1, in which a rotating rod 2 is rotatably installed, and a conveyor belt 11 is arranged below the gantry 1, a pressing platform 3 is fixedly installed on the rotating rod 2, and the pressing platform 3 is driven to rotate by an output source, a plurality of molding grooves 4 arranged at equal intervals are opened on the pressing platform 3, and a blanking plate 5 is slidably installed in each molding groove 4, and the molding groove 4 is used to place peanut food. A driving component 8, a transmission component 9 and a linkage component 10 are arranged in the pressing platform 3, and the driving component 8, the transmission component 9 and the linkage component 10 are connected; A carrying plate 7 is slidably mounted in the pressing platform 3 and fixedly connected to the plurality of forming grooves 4. The carrying plate 7 is driven to move by a driving assembly 8. When the carrying plate 7 is extended in the pressing platform 3, the unloading plate 5 pushes out the peanut food in the forming grooves 4. When the carrying plate 7 is retracted in the pressing platform 3, the unloading plate 5 is retracted to the bottom of the forming grooves 4; and The pressing plate 6 is slidably mounted on the gantry 1 and is driven by the first driving source to rise and fall. When the pressing platform 3 is located directly below the pressing plate 6, the pressing plate 6 cooperates with the pressing platform 3 to press the peanut food in the forming groove 4 into shape. Then, the output source drives the rotating rod 2 to rotate 180 degrees. At this time, the forming groove 4 on the pressing platform 3 faces the conveyor belt 11, and during the rotation, the driving component 8 drives the carrying plate 7 to extend in the pressing platform 3. Then, the first driving source drives the rotating rod 2 to rotate 180 degrees, so that the pressing platform 3 returns to its original position.

[0021] The shape of the forming groove 4 is a prune-like shape, so that the peanut food is formed into a prune-like shape after being pressed. The shape of the forming groove 4 can be changed according to the desired shape of the finished product.

[0022] In one case of this embodiment, the output source may be a servo motor, a stepper motor or other components, or other mechanisms capable of realizing rotational motion; the first driving source may be an electric cylinder, an electric telescopic rod or other components, or other mechanisms capable of realizing linear reciprocating motion, which are not specifically limited in this embodiment.

[0023] The working principle of the present invention is as follows: first, the peanut food is prepared by coating the outer layer of the peanuts with mixed expansion powder, then heating the peanuts to expand the expansion powder into a spherical shape, and then Figure 2 As shown, the spherical peanut food is placed into the forming groove 4, and then the first driving source drives the pressing plate 6 to descend, as shown in FIG. Figure 3 As shown, at this time, the pressing plate 6 presses the spherical peanut food into the shape of the forming groove 4, presenting a prune shape, and then the pressing plate 6 rises back to its original position, and drives the rotating rod 2 to rotate 180 degrees through the output source, so that the pressing platform 3 flips to the other side. At this time, the forming groove 4 on the pressing platform 3 becomes a state facing the conveyor belt 11 downward, and in the process of rotation, the driving component 8 drives the carrying plate 7 in the pressing platform 3 to extend, thereby driving all the unloading plates 5 to push the prune-shaped peanut food in the forming groove 4, so that when the pressing platform 3 flips over to the top of the conveyor belt 11, the peanut food in the forming groove 4 is automatically pushed out, falls onto the conveyor belt 11 and is transported away, and then the output source drives the rotating rod 2 to rotate 180 degrees again, so that the pressing platform 3 returns to its original position, and in this rotation process, the driving component 8 drives the carrying plate 7 to shrink, so that the unloading plate 5 shrinks to the bottom of the forming groove 4, thereby returning to the state shown by the rotating rod 2, and the processing is cyclical in this way; The flipping of the pressing platform 3 away from the pressing plate 6 makes the unloading area safer. On the other hand, the forming groove 4 of the flipped pressing platform 3 faces downward. Therefore, when the unloading plate 5 pushes the peanut food out of the forming groove 4, the peanut food is more likely to separate from the forming groove 4 under the action of gravity, and it is also easier to fall off the unloading plate 5. In addition, the unloading plate 5 pushes the peanut food during the process of the rotating rod 2 driving the pressing platform 3 to flip, which means that the peanut food will be separated from the unloading plate 5 by the centrifugal force, ensuring that the peanut food can be unloaded onto the conveyor belt 11.

[0024] like Figure 5 As shown, as a preferred embodiment of the present invention, one end of the blanking plate 5 located in the forming groove 4 is convex.

[0025] In practical application of this embodiment, since the peanut food has a certain viscosity after being pressed and formed, a convex shape is provided at one end of the blanking plate 5, such as Figure 5As shown in the example, the bottom of the forming groove 4 and the protrusion of the unloading plate 5 have a larger contact area with the pressed peanut food, ensuring that the adsorption of the peanut food is greater than the adsorption of the pressing plate 6, thereby preventing the peanut food from being adsorbed on the pressing plate 6 and detaching from the forming groove 4.

[0026] like Figure 1-Figure 4 As shown, as a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the number of the pressing platforms 3 is four, and the four pressing platforms 3 are circumferentially arranged on the rotating rod 2.

[0027] In actual application, the arrangement of four pressing platforms 3 can improve the efficiency of pressing peanut food into shape, and when the peanut food on one side is pressed by the pressing plate 6, the peanut food on the other side can be unloaded onto the conveyor belt 11 and conveyed, thereby further improving the processing speed.

[0028] like Figure 1-Figure 4 As shown, as a preferred embodiment of the present invention, an extension platform 12 is fixedly installed on the pressure plate 6, and a first push plate 13 is slidably installed in the extension platform 12. The first push plate 13 is driven to move by a second driving source and is slidably matched with the bottom surface of the pressure plate 6.

[0029] In one case of this embodiment, the second driving source may be an electric cylinder, an electric telescopic rod or other components, or other mechanisms capable of achieving linear reciprocating motion, which is not specifically limited in this embodiment.

[0030] In practical application, if Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown in the example, when the pressing plate 6 is lowered to press the peanut food, the first push plate 13 is retracted in the extension platform 12 and will not hinder the pressing work. Figure 4 As shown in the example, after the pressing is completed, the pressing plate 6 is slightly lifted, and at this time the second driving source drives the first push plate 13 to move back and forth once, so that the first push plate 13 scrapes the bottom surface of the pressing plate 6 once, so that the peanut food adsorbed on the pressing plate 6 can be pushed down and fall onto the pressing platform 3, and then fall onto the conveyor belt 11 when the pressing platform 3 is flipped over later, ensuring that there is no foreign matter on the bottom surface of the pressing plate 6.

[0031] like Figure 1-Figure 4 As shown, as a preferred embodiment of the present invention, a fixed platform 14 is fixedly installed on the frame of the conveyor belt 11, and a second push plate 15 is slidably installed on the fixed platform 14. The second push plate 15 is driven to move by a third driving source. When the molding groove 4 on the pressing platform 3 is toward the conveyor belt 11, the third driving source drives the second push plate 15 to reciprocate once, and at this time, the second push plate 15 pushes the peanut food in the molding groove 4 down.

[0032] In one case of this embodiment, the third driving source may be an electric cylinder, an electric telescopic rod or other components, or other mechanisms capable of achieving linear reciprocating motion, which is not specifically limited in this embodiment.

[0033] In actual application of this embodiment, due to the stickiness of the peanut food, the peanut food may be adsorbed on the blanking plate 5 when the blanking plate 5 pushes the food to be discharged. At this time, the third driving source drives the second push plate 15 to move back and forth once, which can completely push the peanut food adsorbed on the blanking plate 5 down and drop it onto the conveyor belt 11, thereby achieving a complete discharge effect.

[0034] like Figure 1-Figure 4 As shown, as a preferred embodiment of the present invention, a fixing plate 16 is fixedly mounted on the frame of the conveyor belt 11, and a camera assembly 17 is fixedly mounted on the fixing plate 16. The camera assembly 17 is connected to a third driving source. When the molding groove 4 on the pressing platform 3 faces the conveyor belt 11, the camera assembly 17 captures whether there is peanut food in the molding groove 4. When there is peanut food in the molding groove 4, the camera assembly 17 controls the third driving source to drive the second push plate 15 to perform a reciprocating movement.

[0035] In one case of this embodiment, it should be noted that the camera assembly 17 described in the present invention is a prior art, and the present invention does not improve it. Therefore, it is not necessary to disclose its specific mechanical structure and circuit structure, and it does not affect the integrity of the present invention.

[0036] In actual application of this embodiment, when the pressing platform 3 moves to the forming groove 4 toward the conveyor belt 11, the image at the forming groove 4 is first captured by the camera assembly 17 to determine whether there is peanut food in the forming groove 4. The existence here refers to the peanut food adsorbed on the unloading plate 5. When there is peanut food in the forming groove 4, the second push plate 15 is reciprocated. When there is no peanut food in the forming groove 4, the second push plate 15 does not need to reciprocate. In this way, whether the second push plate 15 is started can be controlled according to actual conditions.

[0037] like Figure 5-Figure 8As shown in the figure, as a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the driving assembly 8 includes a moving frame 801, an oblique groove 802, a round rod 803, a straight groove 804 and a reciprocating screw rod 805. The moving frame 801 is slidably installed in the pressing platform 3, and the reciprocating screw rod 805 is rotatably installed in the pressing platform 3 and is threadedly connected to the moving frame 801. When the pressing platform 3 rotates around the rotating rod 2, the transmission assembly 9 drives the reciprocating screw rod 805 to rotate through the linkage assembly 10, and the two straight grooves 804 They are respectively opened at both ends of the pressing platform 3, and two oblique grooves 802 are respectively opened at both ends of the movable frame 801, and the oblique grooves 802 are arranged obliquely. When the pressing platform 3 is located directly below the pressing plate 6, the horizontal height of the end of the round rod 803 farther from the axis of the rotating rod 2 is higher than the horizontal height of the end of the round rod 803 closer to the axis of the rotating rod 2. The two round rods 803 are respectively slidably installed in the two straight grooves 804, and the round rod 803 is slidably connected to the oblique groove 802, and it is fixedly connected to the supporting plate 7.

[0038] In practical application, if Figure 5-Figure 7 As shown, when the reciprocating screw 805 rotates, it will drive the moving frame 801 to move, and the oblique groove 802 on the moving frame 801 will cause the round rod 803 to change its position, and the round rod 803 can only move within the track of the straight groove 804, so that the carrying plate 7 will move synchronously with the movement of the round rod 803, as shown in FIG. Figure 5 As shown, at this time, the carrying plate 7 is retracted in the pressing platform 3, and the blanking plate 5 is retracted at the bottom of the forming groove 4. Figure 7 As shown, at this time, the movement of the movable frame 801 causes the carrying plate 7 to rise, thereby allowing the blanking plate 5 to be ejected.

[0039] like Figure 1-Figure 8 As shown, as a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the transmission assembly 9 includes an outer ring gear 901, a transmission gear 902, a transmission rod 903 and a synchronous belt 904, the outer ring gear 901 is sleeved on the rotating rod 2, and it is fixedly connected to the gantry 1, the transmission gear 902 and the transmission rod 903 are both rotatably installed on the pressing platform 3, the two are staggered, and the two are connected by a synchronous belt 904, the transmission gear 902 is meshed with the outer ring gear 901, and the transmission rod 903 drives the reciprocating screw 805 to rotate through the linkage assembly 10.

[0040] In practical application, if Figure 4As shown in the example, the outer gear ring 901 is sleeved on the rotating rod 2, and it is fixedly installed on the gantry 1. When the pressing platform 3 rotates, the transmission gear 902 on the pressing platform 3 will rotate around the outer gear ring 901, and the transmission gear 902 is meshed with the outer gear ring 901. In this way, when the transmission gear 902 rotates around the outer gear ring 901, it will also rotate by itself. At the same time, the transmission gear 902 drives the transmission rod 903 to rotate through the synchronous belt 904, and the transmission rod 903 drives the reciprocating screw 805 to rotate through the linkage assembly 10. In this way, it can be ensured that when the pressing platform 3 is turned over, the unloading plate 5 will gradually push out the peanut food in the forming groove 4.

[0041] like Figure 7-Figure 9 As shown, as a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the linkage assembly 10 includes a driving bevel gear 1001 and a driven bevel gear 1002, and the driving bevel gear 1001 and the driven bevel gear 1002 are both rotatably installed in the pressing platform 3, the two are meshed, and the axes of the two are perpendicular, the driving bevel gear 1001 is coaxially fixedly connected to the transmission rod 903, and the driven bevel gear 1002 is coaxially fixedly connected to the oblique groove 802.

[0042] In actual application, the power of the transmission rod 903 can be transmitted to the reciprocating screw 805 through the meshing of the active bevel gear 1001 and the driven bevel gear 1002 , thereby linking the rotation of the pressing platform 3 with the rotation of the reciprocating screw 805 .

[0043] See also Figure 1-Figure 10 As shown, the present invention is a method for using a peanut food forming machine, the method is applied to a peanut food forming machine as described in the above embodiment, and the method comprises the following steps: Step S1: driving the rotating rod 2 to rotate through the output source so that the pressing platform 3 is located directly below the pressing plate 6, and then placing a peanut food in each forming groove 4; Step S2: Then the first driving source drives the pressing plate 6 to descend to press the peanut food into the shape of the forming groove 4; Step S3: The output source drives the rotating rod 2 to rotate 180 degrees. During the rotation, the driving assembly 8 drives the carrying plate 7 to extend in the pressing platform 3. The carrying plate 7 drives the unloading plate 5 to push out the peanut food in the forming groove 4. After the rotating rod 2 rotates 180 degrees, the forming groove 4 faces downward toward the conveyor belt 11, and the pushed out peanut food falls onto the conveyor belt 11 to be conveyed; Step S4: The output source is used to drive the rotating rod 2 to rotate 180 degrees again, so that the pressing platform 3 returns to its original position. During the rotation, the driving assembly 8 drives the carrying plate 7 to shrink inside the pressing platform 3, and the carrying plate 7 drives the blanking plate 5 to shrink to the bottom of the forming groove 4; Step S5: Repeat steps S1 to S4 to continuously press and shape the peanut food and automatically unload the peanut food.

[0044] The above is a detailed description of an embodiment of the present invention, but the content is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and cannot be considered to limit the scope of implementation of the present invention. All equivalent changes and improvements made within the scope of the present invention should still fall within the scope of the patent coverage of the present invention.
