[0029] In actual application of this embodiment, the main support 101 is fixedly connected to one side of the pancake machine, the rotating support 102 is rotatably assembled at the bottom of the main support 101, a plurality of the storage boxes 301 are fixedly arranged on the main support 101, and a plurality of the feeding boxes 401 are fixedly arranged on the rotating support 102. When the main shaft 201 rotates in a fixed clockwise direction at a fixed angle, the main shaft 201 and the rotating support 102 are connected through a differential transmission assembly, so that the rotating support 1 02 and the main shaft 201 rotate differentially. When the main shaft 201 rotates at a fixed angle, the main shaft disk 202 fixedly mounted thereon can synchronously drive a plurality of transmission arms 203 to move, and the transmission arms 203 are rotatably mounted with a blocking plate 204 at the end thereof. The blocking plate 204 is limitedly slidably mounted in the upper feed port 302 and the lower discharge port 303. Therefore, the upper feed port 302 and the lower discharge port 303 can be opened and closed by the rotation of the main shaft disk 202, and the The upper feed port 302 and the lower discharge port 303 are opened and closed alternately, so that the material to be put in the storage box 301 is quantitatively stored. The top of the feeding box 401 is provided with a receiving groove 405, and the receiving groove 405 is matched with the lower discharge port 303, so that when the feeding box 401 rotates to the bottom of the lower discharge port 303, when the lower discharge port 303 is in an open state, the material in the storage box 301 can pass through the lower discharge port 303 and the receiving groove 405 to be transported to the feeding box 401. The throwing cylinder 402 rotatably arranged at the bottom of the feeding box 401 can move synchronously with the rotation of the feeding box 401 around the main bracket 101, so that the raw materials in the feeding box 401 are swung back and forth and thrown out, and cooperate with the rotation of the feeding box 401 around the main bracket 101 to spread the raw materials evenly on the pancakes.

[0031] See also Figure 3 and Figure 8 In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the main shaft assembly 2 also includes elastic sealing sleeves 205 and 206, the elastic sealing sleeve 205 is elastically slidably assembled at the end of the sealing plate 204, and the elastic sealing sleeve 205 is slidably inserted in the upper feed port 302 and the lower discharge port 303, and the 206 is fixedly arranged at the bottom of the main shaft component 201.
[0032] In actual application of this embodiment, the elastic sealing sleeve 205 is slidably inserted at the end of the sealing plate 204, so that when the main shaft 201 rotates, the transmission arm 203 can push the sealing plate 204 and the elastic sealing sleeve 205 toward the upper feed port 302 and the lower discharge port 303 during the linkage process, and when the elastic sealing sleeve 205 reaches the dead point position, the sealing plate 204 can elastically slide in the elastic sealing sleeve 205 to avoid mechanical interference with the transmission arm 203.
[0033] See also Figure 4 In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the feeding assembly 4 further includes a stirring rod 404 and a secondary driving wheel 406 . The stirring rod 404 is rotatably assembled in the throwing barrel 402 and a secondary driving wheel 406 is provided at one end of the stirring rod 404 .
[0034] In actual application of this embodiment, the stirring rod 404 is rotatably arranged in the throwing barrel 402, and the stirring rod 404 can be controlled to rotate synchronously with the secondary driving wheel 406 on one side of the feeding box 401, so that during the movement of the feeding box 401, the raw materials inside the feeding box 401 are continuously turned over to prevent the raw materials from being blocked on one side of the feeding box 401, thereby improving the smoothness of feeding.
[0035] In one case of the present embodiment, the throwing barrel 402 is elastically rotatably assembled at the bottom of the feeding box 401. When the feeding box 401 is reset to the bottom of the corresponding lower discharge port 303, the throwing barrel 402 is deflected under the elastic force, so that the slot of the throwing barrel 402 is misaligned with the bottom slot of the feeding box 401, so that the bottom of the feeding box 401 is in a closed state, preventing the raw materials from accidentally falling out of the feeding box 401.
[0036] See also Figure 5 and Figure 6 In a preferred embodiment of the present embodiment, the automatic unloading device of the pancake machine further includes a transmission assembly 5, which includes a sliding shaft seat 501, a sliding rod 502, a telescopic frame 503, a driven bevel gear 504, a middle bevel gear 505, a transmission shaft 506, a transmission bevel gear 507 and a cam 508. The sliding shaft seat 501 is fixedly arranged at the bottom of the main bracket 101, and the sliding rod 502 is elastically slidably assembled on the sliding shaft seat 501 and the sliding rod 502 is in sliding contact with the 206. The telescopic frame 503 is fixedly mounted on the sliding rod 502, and a driven bevel gear 504 is rotatably arranged on the telescopic frame 503. The driven bevel gear 504 is meshed with the bottom gear ring 103. The middle bevel gear 505 is fixedly mounted on the telescopic frame 503. The transmission shaft 506 is fixedly mounted on one side of the feeding box 401. A transmission bevel gear 507 and a cam 508 are fixedly arranged on the transmission shaft 506, and the transmission bevel gear 507 is meshed with the middle bevel gear 505.
[0037] In actual application of this embodiment, when the upper feed port 302 is in an open state, the lower discharge port 303 is in a closed state, and at this time, the main shaft member 201 pulls the rotating bracket 102 to rotate and feed, and at this time 206 rotates synchronously for a fixed degree to make the sliding rod member 502 move toward the side of the main shaft member 201 during elastic sliding, so that the telescopic frame 503 and the driven bevel gear 504 slide synchronously toward the side of the main shaft member 201, so that the driven bevel gear 504 is meshed with the bottom gear ring 103. At this time, when the main shaft member 201 is pulling a plurality of feeding boxes 401 to rotate, the driven bevel gear 504 drives the middle bevel gear 505 to rotate through meshing rotation, and the middle bevel gear 505 rotates through the transmission bevel gear The gear 507 is connected to the transmission shaft 506, so that the transmission shaft 506 can synchronously drive the secondary driving wheel 406 to rotate during the rotation process, so that the stirring rod 404 can continuously rotate in the throwing barrel 402, and the raw materials inside the feeding box 401 are continuously turned over during the movement of the feeding box 401 to prevent the raw materials from being blocked on one side of the feeding box 401, thereby improving the smoothness of feeding, and the cam 508 at the other end of the transmission shaft 506 continuously hits the reset plate 403 during the unidirectional rotation, so that the reset plate 403 reciprocates under the elastic force, thereby driving the throwing barrel 402 to reciprocate, and at the same time, the reciprocating swinging impact generates vibration, so that the raw materials inside the feeding box 401 are more likely to fall along the throwing barrel 402.
[0038] In one case in the present embodiment, when the main shaft member 201 rotates in the opposite direction to reset, one side of the upper feed port 302 is switched to a closed state, while one side of the lower discharge port 303 is switched to an open state, so that the raw materials in the storage box 301 pass through the lower discharge port 303 and the receiving trough 405 and fall into the feeding box 401. At this time, when the telescopic frame 503 rotates to the side of the sliding bar member 502, the sliding bar member 502 slides toward the side away from the main shaft member 201 under the pressure of 206, so that the telescopic frame 503 moves toward the side away from the main shaft member 201 under the drive of the sliding bar member 502. At this time, the driven bevel gear 504 is disengaged from the bottom gear ring 103, so that the stirring rods 404 and 408 stop rotating, so that the throwing barrel 402 is switched to a closed state under the drive of the elastic force.
[0039] The above-mentioned embodiment of the present invention provides an automatic unloading device for a pancake machine, which can automatically and directionally fill the required raw materials into the corresponding feeding boxes 401 by fixing a plurality of storage boxes 301 on the main bracket 101 and circumferentially disposing a plurality of feeding boxes 401 on the rotating main shaft 201. During the movement of the feeding boxes 401, the raw materials inside the feeding boxes 401 are continuously turned over to prevent the raw materials from being blocked on one side of the feeding boxes 401, thereby improving the smoothness of feeding. After the raw materials are evenly scattered, the raw materials are automatically filled in by rotating and resetting, thereby eliminating the tedious steps of manually replenishing the raw materials and increasing the efficiency of pancake preparation.
