Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of deep processing of food, in particular to a method for forming a vegetarian skewer. Background Art

[0002] Gluten skewers are a common street snack and barbecue ingredient. They usually use gluten as the main ingredient, and are supplemented with cumin powder, chili powder, salt, light soy sauce, dark soy sauce, pepper, five-spice powder, sweet noodle sauce, steamed fish soy sauce, oyster sauce, etc. for seasoning and flavoring.

[0003] Many years ago, gluten skewers were usually formed by manual preparation, which included the processes of kneading dough, letting dough rest, wrapping dough, boiling gluten and cutting gluten. The production process was complicated and required a lot of manpower costs. The production efficiency was extremely low, and the finished gluten skewers had different shapes and tastes. In recent years, gluten skewers forming equipment has appeared on the market. Although the labor costs and production efficiency have been greatly improved, the quality of the finished gluten skewers is still uneven. Specifically, the bamboo sticks are frequently inserted non-center or tilted, and even the gluten skewers are penetrated from time to time; the stretching consistency of each section of the gluten string is extremely poor, which will inevitably affect the actual effects of the subsequent seasoning and flavoring processes and baking processes, resulting in poor taste. Therefore, technical personnel are urgently needed to solve the above problems. Summary of the invention

[0004] Therefore, in view of the above-mentioned existing problems and defects, the designers of the present invention have carried out multiple evaluations and considerations, and continuous experiments and modifications by experienced technicians engaged in this industry for many years, which ultimately led to the emergence of the vegetarian skewer forming method.

[0005] The invention relates to a vegetarian skewer forming method, which is implemented by means of a vegetarian skewer forming device; the vegetarian skewer forming device is horizontally placed and comprises an organic table, a vegetarian roll supplying machine, a vegetarian roll horizontal conveying machine, a vegetarian roll receiving and feeding machine, a vegetarian roll cutting and unfolding machine, a skewer supplying machine, a skewer pushing machine and a vegetarian skewer removing machine.

[0006] The vegetarian skewer forming method comprises the following steps:

[0007] S1. Vegetarian rolls are fed in batches into a vegetarian roll feeding machine. During the operation of the vegetarian roll feeding machine, the vegetarian rolls are subjected to an inclined upward pushing force to achieve a step-by-step climb and are fed to a vegetarian roll horizontal conveying machine.

[0008] S2, the vegetarian roll moves to the left due to the conveying force from the vegetarian roll horizontal conveying machine until it reaches the designated position;

[0009] S3. When there are vegetarian rolls remaining at the designated position, the vegetarian roll receiving and feeding machine performs a receiving action set, and the vegetarian rolls are received one by one. During a certain period of time in this process, the vegetarian rolls are continuously subjected to the backward lateral thrust and roll backward;

[0010] S4, the vegetarian roll receives the feeding machine to perform a set of horizontal conveying actions, and the vegetarian roll is able to perform a backward movement until it is in a relative position with the vegetarian roll cutting and unfolding machine;

[0011] S5, the vegetarian roll receives the feeding machine to perform a feeding action set, and the vegetarian roll is able to perform a rightward movement until it is immersed in the vegetarian roll cutting and unfolding machine;

[0012] S6, the vegetarian roll cutting and spreading machine performs a clamping action set, and the multiple sets of cutting knives are able to apply radial restraining force to the circumferential side wall of the vegetarian roll. At the same time, the skewers supplying machine is operated to supply skewers one by one, and with the help of the skewers pushing machine, the skewers are able to perform translational movement along the skewers receiving groove toward the constrained gluten roll until they are inserted into the vegetarian roll to a set depth value;

[0013] S7, the vegetarian roll cutting and spreading machine performs a set of cutting actions, and multiple sets of cutting knives perform a closing action synchronously, so that a series of cutting slits are formed on the circumferential side wall of the vegetarian roll, and the cutting knives do not damage the skewers;

[0014] S8, executing the knife retraction action, the multiple sets of cutting knives are sequentially disengaged from the corresponding cutting slits, and at the same time, the skewers continue to move left due to the pushing force from the skewers pushing mechanism, and the vegetarian rolls follow synchronously, and the multiple cutting slits are sequentially expanded due to being dragged, until the spiral vegetarian string is completely disengaged from the vegetarian roll cutting and expanding mechanism;

[0015] S9, the vegetarian skewers removal mechanism is activated, the vegetarian skewers are received and freely fall to the designated drop position.

[0016] As a further improvement of the technical solution disclosed in the present invention, in step S2, the vegetarian roll horizontal conveying machine is composed of a right-positioned belt conveyor and a left-positioned conveyor that are connected end to end. During the vegetarian roll passing through the right-positioned belt conveyor, its displacement speed is V 右 , while the vegetarian roll passes through the left belt conveyor, its displacement speed is V 左 , and matches the rhythm of the vegetarian roll feeding machine, then V 左 >V 右 .

[0017] As a further improvement of the technical solution disclosed in the present invention, the vegetarian roll receiving and feeding machine includes a push cylinder, a first contact position sensing unit and a receiving bin. In step S3, when the vegetarian roll moves to the specified position, the first contact position sensing unit is triggered, and the push cylinder performs a backward pushing action due to receiving the working instruction from the first contact position sensing unit, so that the vegetarian roll can roll from the left conveyor to the receiving bin.

[0018] As a further improvement of the technical solution disclosed in the present invention, the vegetarian roll receiving and feeding machine also includes a second contact position sensing unit. In step S3, after the vegetarian roll rolls down to the receiving bin, the vegetarian roll moves leftward due to the pushing force from the vegetarian roll receiving and feeding machine until the second contact position sensing unit is triggered.

[0019] As a further improvement of the technical solution disclosed in the present invention, in step S5, after a single action of the vegetarian roll receiving and feeding machine, the vegetarian rolls are completely immersed in the vegetarian roll cutting and spreading machine, and the immersion depth of the vegetarian rolls in the same batch is consistent.

[0020] As a further improvement of the technical solution disclosed in the present invention, in step S6, multiple groups of cutting knives synchronously perform a knife closing action until they are sunk into the circumferential side wall of the vegetarian roll to a set depth, and no cutting cracks are generated on the circumferential side wall of the vegetarian roll.

[0021] As a further improvement of the technical solution disclosed in the present invention, the skewer supplying machine includes a material shifting mechanism. In step S6, a batch of skewer is pre-placed in the skewer supplying machine, and during the whole process of the skewer being supplied piece by piece, the batch of skewer to be supplied and still remaining in the skewer supplying machine is maintained in a loose state due to the high-frequency reciprocating material shifting force from the material shifting mechanism.

[0022] As a further improvement of the technical solution disclosed in the present invention, after a single action of the material-dispensing mechanism, the displacement amplitude of the skewer is controlled within 2 to 3 mm, and the action frequency is controlled within 5 to 8 times / min.

[0023] As a further improvement of the technical solution disclosed in the present invention, in step S7, after the cutter has completed its retraction action, the cut slit cannot be freely extended due to the obstruction of the opposite cutter.

[0024] As a further improvement of the technical solution disclosed in the present invention, the vegetarian skewer removing machine executes a collection of receiving actions, so that the vegetarian skewers can be received; the vegetarian skewer removing machine executes a collection of translational feeding actions, and the vegetarian skewers continue to move left a set distance due to being clamped; when the movement reaches the specified drop position, the vegetarian skewer removing machine releases the clamping effect, and the vegetarian skewers can fall freely under the action of gravity.

[0025] In practical applications, the vegetarian skewer forming method disclosed in the present invention can achieve at least the following beneficial technical effects, specifically:

[0026] 1) The vegetarian roll is stably and reliably restrained by the radial restraining force from multiple sets of cutting knives. In addition, thanks to the assistance of the skewer-receiving groove, the skewer's anti-flexibility is greatly improved, and it is always kept in a directional translational motion state during the skewer-threading action. In this way, on the one hand, the occurrence of non-centering or tilted insertion of the skewer can be effectively avoided, ensuring that the skewer can be inserted into the vegetarian roll in a centering and concentric manner; on the other hand, during the skewer-threading process, the axial compression of the vegetarian roll is always controlled within a reasonable value range, which can effectively avoid the occurrence of local bulging of the vegetarian roll due to the skewer-threading force;

[0027] 2) After the cuts on the vegetarian rolls are formed, the cutters do not completely escape from the cuts. In addition, during the process of the vegetarian rolls being formed, the cutters of each group perform the retreat action in sequence and completely escape from the cuts, so that the cuts can be formed in sequence. The finished vegetarian skewers have good stretch consistency in each segment, regular shape, and uniform thickness, which is conducive to the smooth implementation of the subsequent seasoning and baking processes.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0038] In the description of the present invention, it is necessary to understand that the directions or positional relationships indicated by the terms "left", "right", "front", "back", "up", "down", etc. are based on the directions or positional relationships shown in the accompanying drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing the present invention and simplifying the description, rather than indicating or implying that the device or element referred to must have a specific direction, be constructed and operated in a specific direction, and therefore cannot be understood as a limitation on the present invention.

[0039] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments. Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 The schematic diagram of the structure of the vegetarian skewer forming equipment disclosed in the present invention is shown together. It can be seen that it is mainly composed of a machine 1, a vegetarian roll supply machine 2, a vegetarian roll horizontal conveying machine 3, a vegetarian roll receiving and feeding machine 4, a vegetarian roll cutting and unfolding machine 5, a skewer supply machine 6, a skewer pushing machine 7 and a vegetarian skewer removing machine 8. Among them, the machine 1 is placed horizontally and in a horizontal state, and is used as the overall installation base. The vegetarian roll supply machine 2, the skewer supply machine 6, and the vegetarian roll cutting and unfolding machine 5 are all located directly behind the vegetarian roll horizontal conveying machine 3, and are arranged in sequence from right to left. The skewer pushing machine 7 is used to match the skewer supply machine 6, and is hidden below the skewer supply machine 6 (such as Figure 8 The vegetarian roll receiving and feeding machine 4 is located on the left side of the vegetarian roll cutting and spreading machine 5, and is used to receive the vegetarian rolls delivered by the vegetarian roll horizontal conveying machine 3. The vegetarian string taking machine 8 is used to match the vegetarian roll cutting and spreading machine 5, to receive the finished vegetarian string, and uses the left side wall of the vegetarian roll cutting and spreading machine 5 as the installation base.

[0040] The present invention also discloses a vegetarian skewer forming method, which is implemented by means of the above-mentioned vegetarian skewer forming device, and comprises the following steps:

[0041] S1, vegetarian rolls are fed in batches into the vegetarian roll feeding machine 2; during the operation of the vegetarian roll feeding machine 2, the vegetarian rolls are subjected to the inclined upward pushing force to achieve step-by-step climbing and are fed to the vegetarian roll horizontal conveying machine 3;

[0042] S2, the vegetarian roll moves to the left due to the conveying force from the vegetarian roll horizontal conveying machine 3 until it reaches the designated position;

[0043] S3, when there are vegetarian rolls left at the designated position, the vegetarian roll receiving and feeding machine 4 performs a receiving action set, and the vegetarian rolls are received one by one, and in a certain period of time during this process, the vegetarian rolls are continuously subjected to the backward lateral thrust and roll backward;

[0044] S4, the vegetarian roll receiving feeding machine 4 performs a set of horizontal conveying actions, and the vegetarian roll is able to perform a backward movement until it is in a relative position with the vegetarian roll cutting and unfolding machine 5;

[0045] S5, the vegetarian roll receives the feeding machine 4 to perform a feeding action set, and the vegetarian roll is able to perform a rightward movement until it is immersed in the vegetarian roll cutting and unfolding machine 5;

[0046] S6, the vegetarian roll cutting and spreading machine 5 performs a clamping action set, and the multiple sets of cutting knives are able to apply radial restraining force to the circumferential side wall of the vegetarian roll. At the same time, the skewer supplying machine 6 is operated to supply skewers one by one, and with the help of the skewer pushing machine 7, the skewers are able to perform translational motion along the skewer receiving groove toward the constrained gluten roll until they are inserted into the vegetarian roll to a set depth value;

[0047] The multiple sets of cutting knives synchronously perform a closing action until they are sunk into the circumferential side wall of the vegetarian roll to a set depth, and no cutting cracks are generated on the circumferential side wall of the vegetarian roll. If this condition is met, the vegetarian roll can be stably and reliably bound;

[0048] S7, the vegetarian roll cutting and spreading machine 5 performs a set of cutting actions, and multiple sets of cutting knives synchronously perform a closing action, so that a series of cutting slits are formed on the circumferential side wall of the vegetarian roll, and the cutting knives do not damage the skewers;

[0049] S8, executing the knife retraction action, the multiple sets of cutting knives are sequentially disengaged from the corresponding cutting slits, and at the same time, the skewers continue to move left due to the pushing force from the skewers pushing mechanism 7, and the vegetarian rolls follow synchronously, and the multiple cutting slits are sequentially expanded due to being dragged, until the spiral vegetarian string is completely disengaged from the vegetarian roll cutting and expanding mechanism 5;

[0050] S9, the vegetarian skewer removal mechanism 8 is activated, the vegetarian skewer is received, and falls freely to the designated drop position;

[0051] The vegetarian skewer removal machine 8 performs a collection of receiving actions, and the vegetarian skewer is received; the vegetarian skewer removal machine 8 performs a collection of translation feeding actions, and the vegetarian skewer continues to move left by a set distance due to being clamped; when the displacement reaches the designated drop position, the vegetarian skewer removal machine 8 releases the clamping effect, and the vegetarian skewer is able to fall freely under the action of gravity.

[0052] During the vegetarian skewer preparation and forming process, the vegetarian rolls are stably and reliably restrained due to the radial restraining force from multiple sets of cutting knives (belonging to the vegetarian roll cutting and spreading machine 5). In addition, thanks to the assistance of the skewer-containing groove, the flexibility of the skewer is greatly improved, and it always remains in a directional translational motion state during the skewer threading action. In this way, on the one hand, the occurrence of non-centering or tilted insertion of the skewer is effectively avoided, ensuring that the skewer is inserted into the vegetarian roll in a centering and concentric manner; on the other hand, during the skewer threading process, the axial compression of the vegetarian roll is always controlled within a reasonable value range, which can effectively avoid the occurrence of local bulging of the vegetarian roll due to the skewer threading force.

[0053] Here, it should be noted that after the cuts on the vegetarian rolls are formed, the pair of cutters do not completely escape from the cuts. In addition, during the process of the vegetarian rolls being formed, the pairs of cutters perform the knife-retracting action in sequence and completely escape from the cuts, so that the cuts can be formed in sequence, and the finished vegetarian skewers have excellent stretching consistency, regular shape, and uniform thickness, which is conducive to the subsequent smooth implementation of the seasoning and flavoring process and the baking process.

[0054] During the installation and commissioning stage of the vegetarian skewer forming equipment, we received feedback from the on-site commissioning personnel that vegetarian rolls are very likely to pile up at the end of the vegetarian roll horizontal conveying machinery 3, and as time goes on, vegetarian rolls often accidentally fall to the ground. The reason is that during the supply stage, that is, in step S1, the vegetarian roll supply machinery 2 has a high working efficiency. Each time it performs a step-by-step climbing action, several vegetarian rolls are synchronously lifted and transferred to the vegetarian roll horizontal conveying machinery 3. However, in step S3, the vegetarian roll receiving and feeding machinery 4 can only receive one vegetarian roll at a time, which will inevitably lead to the difficulty in coordinating and matching the vegetarian roll supply rhythm and the vegetarian roll receiving rhythm. In view of this, as a further optimization of the above technical solution, if Figure 4 As shown in FIG, the vegetarian roll horizontal conveying machine 3 has been modified and designed, and is composed of a right-positioned belt conveyor 31 and a left-positioned conveyor 32 that are connected end to end and have different operating speeds. During the time when the vegetarian roll passes through the right-positioned belt conveyor, it is assumed that the displacement speed of the vegetarian roll is V 右 , and during the left belt conveyor, the displacement speed of the vegetarian roll is assumed to be V左 , and matches the rhythm of the vegetarian roll receiving and feeding machine 4, then V 左 >V 右 In this way, the easy-to-pile area is formed in the entire course of the right belt conveyor 31, rather than at the end of the left conveyor 32, and the laying area is greatly increased, thereby effectively avoiding the occurrence of a sharp increase in the stacking height of the vegetarian rolls due to local accumulation.

[0055] As Figure 5 , Figure 6 , Figure 7 As shown in FIG. 1 , the vegetarian roll receiving and feeding machine 4 includes a push cylinder 41, a first contact position sensing unit 42, a receiving bin 43 and a second contact position sensing unit 44. In step S3, when the vegetarian roll moves to the specified position, the first contact position sensing unit 42 is triggered by the pressing force, and the push cylinder 41 performs a backward pushing action due to receiving the working instruction from the first contact position sensing unit 42, so that the vegetarian roll can roll from the left conveyor 32 to the receiving bin 43. After the vegetarian rolls are settled relative to the receiving bin 43, the vegetarian rolls move to the left due to the pushing force from the vegetarian roll receiving and feeding machine 4, until the second contact position sensing unit 44 is triggered due to the pressing force, which means that the left movement limit positions of the batch of vegetarian rolls are limited. In this way, after a single action of the vegetarian roll receiving and feeding machine 4, the immersion depth of the vegetarian rolls in the same batch relative to the vegetarian roll cutting and spreading machine is consistent, which is conducive to the smooth implementation of the subsequent threading, cutting and pulling actions, and lays a good foundation for achieving the design goal of excellent body consistency and regularity of the finished vegetarian skewers in the same batch.

[0056] According to the feedback from the on-site debugging personnel, during the operation of the stick feeding machine 6, the stick feeding is prone to problems, which makes it difficult to match the working rhythm of the vegetarian roll cutting and spreading machine 5, and thus easily leads to the vegetarian rolls being missed. The reason is that a batch of sticks are fed into the stick storage bin of the stick feeding machine 6 at the same time and are compacted with each other. In particular, the sticks at the bottom to be dropped are subjected to great downward pressure and are often stuck. In view of this, as a further optimization of the above technical solution, as shown in Figure 8 As shown in , the skewer supplying machine 6 is also equipped with a material-dispensing mechanism 61. The material-dispensing mechanism 61 is independently equipped with a power source. In step S6, a batch of skewer is pre-placed in the skewer storage bin of the skewer supplying machine 6, and in the whole process of the skewer being supplied piece by piece, the batch of skewer to be supplied and still remaining in the skewer storage bin is maintained in a loose state due to the high-frequency reciprocating material-dispensing force from the material-dispensing mechanism 61. And after a single action of the material-dispensing mechanism 61, the displacement amplitude of the skewer is controlled at 2 to 3 mm, and the action frequency is controlled at 5 to 8 times / min.

Various modifications to these embodiments will be apparent to one skilled in the art, and the general principles defined herein may be implemented in other embodiments without departing from the spirit or scope of the present invention. Therefore, the present invention will not be limited to the embodiments shown herein, but rather to the widest scope consistent with the principles and novel features disclosed herein.
