[0030] The opening and closing mechanism includes two limiting arms 51, which are respectively fixedly connected to one side of the two half-boxes 3, and a rotating shaft 52 is rotatably connected between the two limiting arms 51. The upper parts of the two half-boxes 3 are fixedly connected with opening and closing handles 53, one of the half-boxes 3 is fixedly connected to a limiting plate 54 on the upper part, and a groove is provided on the limiting plate 54, and the other half-box 3 is fixedly connected to a bent rod 55 on the upper part, and a clamping rod 56 is slidably connected to the bent rod 55. A pressure spring 57 is connected between the clamping rod 56 and the bent rod 55, and the lower part of the clamping rod 56 is located in the groove on the limiting plate 54.

[0031] The placement mechanism includes a plurality of magnetic rods 61, each of which is fixedly connected to the rotating shaft 52, and a plurality of placement plates 62 are fixedly connected to the inner wall of each half box 3, and two of the placement plates 62 on the same horizontal line form a group, and a guide plate 63 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of each half box 3, and two of the guide plates 63 on the same horizontal line form a group, and a straight groove is opened on the guide plate 63, and a placement plate 64 is placed between the two placement plates 62 of each group, and a placement groove is opened in the middle of the placement plate 64. The bottom surface of the placement groove is provided with grid lines, and each placement plate 64 is fixedly connected to a magnet block 65 on one side close to the magnetic rod 61, and the magnet block 65 is in contact with the magnetic rod 61. Each placement plate 64 is rotatably connected to a rotating rod 66 on both sides, and a torsion spring 67 is connected between the rotating rod 66 and the placement plate 64. One side of the rotating rod 66 is located in the straight groove of the guide plate 63, and each placement plate 64 is fixedly connected to a clamping block 68 on both sides, and the clamping block 68 is in contact with the side of the rotating rod 66 away from the guide plate 63.

[0032] In the actual working process, the dough for making mooncakes needs to be fermented after being kneaded. Initially, the clamping rod 56 is clamped into the groove of the limiting plate 54, so that the two half-boxes 3 are in contact and fixed with each other. The operator first opens the two door panels 41, and then pulls out each placement tray 64 horizontally in turn. When the placement tray 64 is pulled out horizontally, one side of the rotating rod 66 moves in the straight groove of the guide plate 63. Then, after the placement tray 64 is pulled out partially, due to the limitation of the clamping block 68, the rotating rod 66 cannot rotate in one direction, and then the rotating rod 66 will be stuck by the guide plate 63 and the clamping block 68. Then the placing tray 64 cannot be further pulled out, and then the operator places the kneaded dough on the placing tray 64 in sequence according to the grid lines on the placing tray 64. After placing it, the operator pushes the placing tray 64 into the half box 3 and makes the magnet block 65 on the placing tray 64 attract the magnetic rod 61 to fix the placing tray 64. After the operator fills each placing tray 64 with dough, the door panel 41 is closed. The two door panels 41 are attracted to each other by the magnet sheet 44 to close, and then the dough is left to ferment in the half box 3. The air outlet on the upper part of the half box 3 can ensure that the half box is The air inside 3 and the outside air circulate normally. After the device has been fermented for many times, in order to ensure the quality of subsequent dough fermentation, the device needs to be cleaned. First, after the dough fermentation is completed, the operator pulls out the placement tray 64, then takes the dough out of the placement tray 64, and then pushes the placement tray 64 back into the half box 3. Then, the operator lifts the clamping rod 56 upward so that the clamping rod 56 no longer blocks the limit plate 54. The operator then uses the two opening and closing handles 53 to separate the two half boxes 3 in the direction away from each other. The two half boxes 3 swing around the rotating shaft 52 as the axis. Then the placement tray 64 is fixed on the magnetic rod 61 by the magnetic force between the magnet block 65 and the magnetic rod 61. After the two half-boxes 3 are separated, the placement plate 62 and the guide plate 63 will move together, so that the placement plate 62 is out of contact with the bottom of the placement tray 64, and the guide plate 63 no longer limits the rotating rod 66. Then the operator removes the placement tray 64 for cleaning and cleans the inside of the half-box 3 at the same time. In this way, the half-box 3 and the placement tray 64 are separated, making cleaning more convenient and not easily affecting the quality of dough fermentation due to incomplete cleaning of the placement tray 64 and the inside of the half-box 3.

[0033] Example 2

[0034] On the basis of Example 1, Figure 8-11As shown, an observation mechanism is also included, which is arranged on the two half-boxes 3. The observation mechanism is used to observe and detect the degree of dough fermentation. The observation mechanism includes two isolation covers 71, and the two isolation covers 71 are respectively fixedly connected to the outer walls of the two half-boxes 3. A number of vertical rods 72 are fixedly connected to the inner walls of the two half-boxes 3. The two vertical rods 72 form a group, and a sliding long rod 73 is slidably connected between the two vertical rods 72 of each group. One side of each sliding long rod 73 is fixedly connected to a number of round rod frames 74, and each sliding long rod 73 is fixedly connected to a connecting frame 75 on a side away from the round rod frame 74. The connecting frame 75 passes through the half-box 3, and a straight rod 76 is fixedly connected between all the connecting frames 75 on the same side of the half-box 3. The straight rod 76 passes through the isolation cover 71, and a return spring 77 is connected between the isolation cover 71 and the straight rod 76. The upper part of each straight rod 76 is fixedly connected to a pull rod 78.

[0035] When the dough is left to ferment in the half box 3 for a period of time, the operator can push the pull rod 78 downward, the return spring 77 is compressed, and the pull rod 78 moves downward, which drives the straight rod 76 downward. The straight rod 76 moves downward, which drives the connecting frame 75 downward together. The connecting frame 75 moves downward, which drives the sliding long rod 73 and the round rod frame 74 downward together. After the round rod frame 74 moves downward for a distance, it squeezes and pokes the upper surface of the dough fermented in the placing tray 64. The operator then releases the pull rod 78 again, and the return spring 77 drives the pull rod 78 and the straight rod 76 to move upward and reset, and then drives the round rod frame 74 to move upward and reset. Then, a depression will appear on the upper surface of the dough poked by the round rod frame 74, and the operator can observe the rebound speed of the dough surface after the depression appears through the transparent glass plate 42 on the door panel 41. The degree of dough fermentation can be evaluated by observing the rebound speed after the depression appears on the dough surface. In this way, the operator can more easily monitor the fermentation degree of the dough without directly contacting the dough, so that the dough is not easily contaminated during the fermentation process.

[0036] Example 3

[0037] On the basis of Example 2, Figure 12-13As shown, it also includes an air outlet mechanism, which is arranged on the door panel 41. The air outlet mechanism is used to extract a part of the gas in the half box 3, and the air outlet mechanism includes a piston tank 81, which is fixedly connected to one of the door panels 41. A piston push rod 82 is slidably connected to the piston tank 81, and a return spring 83 is connected between the piston push rod 82 and the piston tank 81. The upper part of the piston push rod 82 contacts the lower part of one of the pull rods 78, and an air outlet elbow 84 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the piston tank 81, and a conical cover 85 is fixedly connected to the upper part of the air outlet elbow 84. A connecting short pipe 86 is fixedly connected to the upper part of the door panel 41, and the connecting short pipe 86 passes through the door panel 41. One end of the connecting short pipe 86 is connected to the air outlet elbow 84, and the end of the connecting short pipe 86 away from the air outlet elbow 84 is fixedly connected to a one-way valve 87.

[0038] When the operator pushes the pull rod 78 to move downward, the downward movement of the pull rod 78 will squeeze the piston push rod 82 to move downward, the return spring 83 will be compressed, and the downward movement of the piston push rod 82 will squeeze out the air in the piston tank 81 through the air outlet elbow 84. When the air in the piston tank 81 flows out through the air outlet elbow 84, part of the air in the half box 3 will be sucked out through the connecting short pipe 86 and the one-way valve 87 under the principle of siphon and discharged together through the air outlet elbow 84. The discharged gas can be diffused through the conical cover 85, and then the operator can smell the smell of part of the air extracted from the half box 3 at the conical cover 85, and then judge whether there is a problem with the dough fermentation by distinguishing the smell of this part of the air, which makes the monitoring of the dough fermentation degree more comprehensive.
