[0106] The portion of the cylindrical protective cover 33 that faces away from the side wall of the main column 1 of the manufacturing machine is a protective cover metal mesh structure 331.
[0107] It should be noted that, to ensure normal operation, the power unit 3 is equipped with a mixing motor, specifically a Maxon EC series brushless DC motor. This series of motors features high torque, low noise, long lifespan, and ease of control, making them ideal for mixing ingredients such as flour and water to form dough.
[0108] The power unit 3 can also be equipped with servo motors, specifically the Futaba S3003 series digital servo motors. This series of servo motors features high precision, high stability, and ease of programming and control, making them ideal for complex movements such as rotation and flipping of dough forming molds.
[0109] Furthermore, the fully automatic dough making machine also includes:
[0110] The connecting rod working hole 7 is provided on the side wall of the main body 1 of the manufacturing machine, and the connecting rod working hole 7 is located directly below the connection between the feed pipe 6 and the side wall of the main body 1 of the manufacturing machine.
[0111] The dimensions of the mixing basin 50 and the electric slide rail 4 are configured such that when the U-shaped support 5 moves to the lowest end of the electric slide rail 4, the horizontal height of the connecting rod working hole 7 is higher than the top of the mixing basin 50.
[0112] The connecting rod working hole 7 is provided with a pair of telescopic mechanical rods 70, which are arranged side by side and extend or retract into the connecting rod working hole 7 in a direction perpendicular to the side wall of the main body 1 of the manufacturing machine column.
[0113] The telescopic mechanical rod 70 is a rod structure with a U-shaped cross-section, and the free end of the telescopic mechanical rod 70 is provided with a clamping structure 700;
[0114] The telescopic mechanical rod 70 is slidably provided with an end telescopic connecting rod 71. An electric rotating rod 710 is provided on the side of the end telescopic connecting rod 71 facing the other end telescopic connecting rod 71. A spherical electric servo motor 711 is provided at the end of the end telescopic connecting rod 71 near the telescopic mechanical rod 70.
[0115] When the end telescopic connecting rod 71 slides outward from the telescopic mechanical rod 70 to the limit position, the electric servo motor 711 is locked in the locking structure 700.
[0116] When the end telescopic connecting rod 71 slides outward from the telescopic mechanical rod 70 to the limit position, the electric servo motor 711 drives the corresponding end telescopic connecting rod 71 so that an angle is formed between the two end telescopic connecting rods 71.
[0117] A fermentation film 72 is rolled between the two electric rotating rods 710;
[0118] The fermentation film 72 includes a plurality of fermentation film sheets 720 connected in sequence. Each fermentation film sheet 720 has a plurality of film through holes 721, and the plurality of film through holes 721 on each fermentation film sheet 720 are arranged in a circular pattern.
[0119] Specifically, the circle formed by the plurality of thin film through-holes 721 is slightly larger than the basin 50, so that the middle area of the fermentation film sheet 720 can cover the basin 50.
[0120] It should be noted that the telescopic mechanical rod 70 is equipped with a push rod motor, which is a Linak LA series electric push rod. This series of motors has a compact structure, large thrust, and is easy to control.
[0121] Furthermore, the telescopic mechanical rod 70 includes a first top plate 701, a first vertical plate 702, and a first bottom plate 703 with a strip-shaped plate structure;
[0122] The first top plate 701 and the first bottom plate 703 are arranged parallel to each other and spaced apart, and both are perpendicular to the first vertical plate 702;
[0123] The top and bottom surfaces of the first vertical plate 702 are connected to the first top plate 701 and the same side of the first vertical plate 702, respectively, forming a U-shaped rod structure.
[0124] The first top plate 701, the first vertical plate 702 and the first bottom plate 703 form a sliding cavity 704;
[0125] The two end telescopic connecting rods 71 are slidably disposed in the corresponding sliding cavities 704;
[0126] Both the free ends of the first top plate 701 and the first bottom plate 703 are provided with a clamping structure 700, and the two clamping structures 700 are arranged parallel to each other at intervals.
[0127] The first top plate 701 of the telescopic mechanical rod 70 and the first bottom plate 703 have a locking structure 700 that cooperates with each other to lock the electric servo motor 711 of the end telescopic connecting rod 71.
[0128] Furthermore, the holding structure 700 is a ring-shaped structure;
[0129] The electric servo motor 711 is held between the two holding structures 700.
[0130] Supplementary explanation of the working mode of the telescopic mechanical rod 70 and the end telescopic connecting rod 71:
[0131] First, the height of the connecting rod working hole 7 is set under certain conditions, that is, when the mixing basin 50 is placed directly above the base heating device 20 of the base 2, the connecting rod working hole 7 is slightly higher than the top surface of the mixing basin 50.
[0132] At this time, the telescopic mechanical rod 70 extends out from the working hole 7 of the connecting rod, and then the end telescopic connecting rod 71 extends out from the telescopic mechanical rod 70. When the electric servo motor 711 is held between the two holding structures 700, the electric servo motor 711 rotates itself, thereby driving the end telescopic connecting rod 71 to rotate. The two end telescopic connecting rods 71 open, that is, from a state of being parallel to each other, the angle between them becomes an obtuse angle. At this time, the electric slide rail 4 and the U-shaped support 5 lift the mixing basin 50, so that the edge of the mixing basin 50 abuts against the multiple film through holes 721 of the fermentation film sheet 720 that is facing the top of the mixing basin 50. This causes the area surrounded by the multiple film through holes 721 to fall off the fermentation film sheet 720 and cover the edge of the mixing basin 50, forming a cover.
[0133] Then, the basin 50 is lowered through the electric slide rail 4 and the U-shaped support member 5, and the drive end telescopic connecting rod 71 is rotated. The two end telescopic connecting rods 71 return to a parallel state. Then, the two electric rotating rods 710 are rotated so that the next new fermentation film sheet 720 is placed between the two electric rotating rods 710 for the next covering use.
[0134] Furthermore, one of the feed sub-pipes 60 corresponds to one raw material storage bin 61;
[0135] Each of the raw material storage bins 61 is located inside the main body 1 of the manufacturing machine column.
[0136] Furthermore, a ball-locking lever 40 is provided on the side wall of the main body 1 of the manufacturing machine column;
[0137] The ball-operated lever 40 is used to control the drive motor corresponding to the electric slide rail 4.
[0138] It should be noted that the drive motor is specifically a lifting motor, and the Festo DS series linear motor is selected. This series of motors has a simple structure, smooth movement, and is easy to control, making it very suitable for lifting movements of components such as mixing tanks and molding dies.
[0139] Furthermore, the dough making machine also includes:
[0140] The numerical control module is used to connect with the base heating device 20, the planetary gear power mechanism 30 of the power component 3, the touch screen 32, the electric slide rail 4, the heating coil 500, the telescopic mechanical rod 70, the end telescopic connecting rod 71, the electric rotating rod 710, and the electric servo motor 711 to control and execute corresponding actions.
[0141] Of course, the feed sub-pipe 60 of the feed pipe 6 and the raw material storage bin 61 are also equipped with corresponding feeding components, such as pumps, which are also connected to the CNC module signal to control the feeding action.
[0142] It should be noted that the technical solution based on the embodiments of this application has the following technical advantages:
[0143] First, automatic proportioning and feeding:
[0144] Based on the feed pipe 6, there can be three feed sub-pipes 60, which together with the corresponding software application system. By adjusting the flour quality in the app, the software system will add the flour to the flour in sequence through the feed pipes according to the set ratio of "3% sugar by flour quality, 0.75% yeast by flour quality, and 55% water by flour quality".
[0145] Second, planetary gear power mechanism:
[0146] The mechanism is located at the top of the main column 1 of the production machine. It consists of planetary gears, sun gears, plate-shaped planetary carriers, gear rings and their geometric hooks. Driven by a motor, it performs all-round and uniform mixing of the added flour.
[0147] Third, automatic film application and lifting positioning:
[0148] This function consists of a telescopic mechanical rod 70, an end telescopic connecting rod 71, and an automatic film rolling machine. By driving the automatic film rolling machine, a certain amount of film is applied to the end telescopic connecting rod 71. Then, a motor pushes the telescopic mechanical rod 70 and the end telescopic connecting rod 71 to extend. When they reach their limit positions, the two end telescopic connecting rods 71 unfold, allowing the mixing basin 50 to move upwards via the electric slide rail 4 to contact the film and complete the film application.
[0149] During operation, the mixing bowl 50 needs to be raised, lowered, and positioned. By moving the ball-locking lever 40 upward, the mixing bowl 50 can be moved upward along the electric slide rail 4. If it touches the set limit switch, the mixing bowl 50 will stop moving. The bowl can be moved again by moving the ball-locking lever 40.
[0150] Fourth, temperature-controlled fermentation:
[0151] It mainly consists of a base heating device 20 and its automatic temperature control software application. When the mixing bowl 50 enters the alternating magnetic field area, the base heating device 20 generates an eddy current effect, which heats the dough. The ambient temperature is monitored in real time by a temperature sensor. If the fermentation temperature recommended by the system is not satisfactory, the appropriate fermentation temperature can also be manually controlled through the app to ensure the normal fermentation of the dough.
[0152] In summary, the key technical points of this application are:
[0153] Planetary gear design and special structured dough hook: ensures that the dough hook can mix flour evenly in all directions and move smoothly.
[0154] Anti-soil ceramic basin: The bottom of the ceramic basin has a raised design to prevent flour from piling up at the bottom, effectively avoiding the situation where the flour cannot be fully and evenly mixed.
[0155] Ball-locking lever design: The ball-locking lever can be directly moved with the elbow to control the raising and lowering of the basin, effectively solving the problem of not being able to operate the button due to flour on the hands.
[0156] Automatic film application: This eliminates the need for manual film application, thus freeing up hands to a greater extent.
[0157] Eddy current coil heating: It heats fermented dough through the eddy current effect. It has high heating efficiency and can quickly and evenly transfer heat energy to the object being heated. At the same time, this heating method is highly controllable and energy-saving and environmentally friendly.
[0158] Multiple control modes: In addition to direct control, the feeding ratio and ambient temperature during dough fermentation can also be controlled through the software application. Users can easily set parameters such as temperature for a better experience.

[0163] In this embodiment, multiple automated components work together to efficiently complete flour mixing and dough fermentation, effectively improving dough production efficiency and saving labor costs.
[0164] Based on the technical solution of this application, the specific operation in actual implementation is as follows:
[0165] First, making steamed buns:
[0166] By querying AI, the masses of sugar, yeast, and water added for the following flour masses can be obtained, as shown in Table 1 below:
[0167] flour water yeast sugar 100 grams 50 grams 0.75 grams 4 grams 200 grams 100 grams 1.25 grams 7.5 grams 300 grams 150 grams 1.9 grams 11.3 grams 400 grams 200 grams 2.5 grams 15 grams 500 grams 250 grams 3.2 grams 19 grams 600 grams 300 grams 3.8 grams 22.5 grams

[0169] Further fitting of the above data was performed using Matlab:

[0171] The empirical formula for water is: w = 0.50 x (R^2 = 1.00, MSE = 0.00).
[0172] The empirical formula for yeast is: y = 0.01x + 0.18 (R^2 = 1.00, MSE = 0.00).
[0173] The empirical formula for sugar is: s = 0.04x + 0.28 (R^2 = 1.00, MSE = 0.01).
[0174] Second, making steamed buns
[0175] By querying AI, the masses of sugar, yeast, and water added for the following flour masses can be obtained, as shown in Table 2 below:
[0176] flour water yeast sugar 100 grams 54 grams 1 gram 1.9 grams 200 grams 110 grams 2.5 grams 5 grams 300 grams 162 grams 3.8 grams 5.7 grams 400 grams 216 grams 5 grams 7.6 grams 500 grams 265 grams 6.4 grams 12.5 grams 600 grams 315 grams 7.5 grams 15 grams

[0183] By querying AI, the following table (Table 3) shows the required quantities of sugar, yeast, and water for different flour qualities:
[0184]
[0185]
[0186] Table 3
[0187] The empirical formulas for the mass of each ingredient under different flour masses (x) are obtained as follows:
[0188] The empirical formula for water is: w = 0.65 x (R^2 = 1.00, MSE = 0.00).
[0189] The empirical formula for yeast is: y = 0.01x + 0.04 (R^2 = 1.00, MSE = 0.00).
[0190] The empirical formula for sugar is: s = 0.07 x (R^2 = 1.00, MSE = 0.00).
[0191] It should be noted that the closer R^2 is to 1 and the closer MSE is to 0, the smaller the fitting error.
[0192] Furthermore, regarding the control of temperature and time in the temperature control system...
[0193] According to research, the optimal average fermentation temperature for flour is between 28℃ and 30℃, and the optimal fermentation time is about 1.5 hours.
[0194] The system monitors the room temperature. When the room temperature is exactly at the optimal average fermentation temperature, no temperature control is needed, and the fermentation process can be controlled for approximately 1.5 hours under sealed conditions. When the room temperature is not at the optimal average fermentation temperature, temperature control is required within the sealed container. Here, we use a staged fermentation temperature variation control method: under appropriate temperature fluctuations, different microorganisms in the dough (such as yeast and lactic acid bacteria) can play their respective roles, thus giving the dough a richer flavor. For example, at lower temperatures, the activity of lactic acid bacteria may be higher, contributing to the unique sour taste; while at higher temperatures, the activity of yeast is enhanced, contributing to the rapid expansion of the dough. Therefore, an ambient temperature of 30°C is created for the dough in the first hour to help it expand, and in the following 0.5 hours, the temperature is gradually reduced to 28°C to help produce the unique sour taste.
[0195] Furthermore, the relationship between water output and time.
[0196] Based on our research, we need to avoid adding all the water at once to prevent the dough from becoming too wet or too sticky. Here, we'll use a method of adding water in stages and activating the yeast with warm water:
[0197] Water addition method: First, slowly add about 60% of the total water volume during the mixing process, and mix thoroughly and evenly for about 8 minutes until the flour and water are fully mixed to form a doughy texture. Then wait for about 2 minutes to allow the water and flour to further blend. Finally, slowly add the remaining water while mixing.
[0198] Warm water activation method for yeast: Before adding flour, turn on the yeast feed tube and add the specified amount of yeast. Then turn on the water feed tube and add 10 grams of water. The water temperature should generally be controlled between 35℃ and 40℃. After standing for about 5 minutes, add the specified amount of flour and turn on the sugar feed tube. Finally, control the amount of water and stir according to the above method of adding water in batches.
