Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of pie processing equipment technology, and more specifically, to an automatic and rapid triangular pie making device. Background Technology

[0002] In today's rapidly developing food processing industry, triangular pies, as a popular food category among consumers, are experiencing continuously rising market demand, which places increasingly stringent requirements on their automated production equipment. The traditional triangular pie production process heavily relies on manual labor. From rolling out the dough and carefully preparing the filling to wrapping and final packaging, each step consumes a significant amount of manpower and time. This results in extremely low production efficiency, making it impossible to meet the large-scale market demand. Furthermore, manual operation is affected by individual skill levels, fatigue, and other factors, leading to significant fluctuations in product quality indicators such as size, filling content, and appearance. This makes it difficult to guarantee consistent taste and quality, undoubtedly posing a major obstacle to the company's large-scale production and brand development.

[0003] Although the automatic triangular pie-making device with application number 202411644617.7 can automatically complete key steps such as dough placement, filling mixing and feeding, dough folding, and shaping, reducing manual intervention and improving production efficiency to some extent, it has significant shortcomings. It lacks multi-station continuous automatic processing capabilities; each process is completed sequentially in the same location or limited space, preventing parallel operation. This results in significant time intervals in the entire production process. For example, after dough placement, the filling must be fed before the pie can be folded, greatly limiting the equipment's capacity and making it difficult to meet the growing market demand for triangular pies in bulk. Furthermore, single or limited processing positions easily lead to overuse of local components, resulting in uneven wear and tear, increasing maintenance costs and frequency, and reducing the overall lifespan of the equipment. In addition, the lack of multi-station continuous processing makes it difficult to conduct precise quality control at each stage of production. Differences in filling amount and dough wrapping tightness can easily occur between different batches, and even within the same batch, affecting product standardization and quality stability, which is detrimental to establishing a good brand image for the company in market competition. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide an automatic and rapid triangular pie-making device to solve the problem mentioned in the background art that it lacks the ability to continuously and automatically process multiple stations, and that each process is completed sequentially in the same position or a limited space, making it impossible to achieve parallel operation.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides an automatic and rapid triangular pie-making device, comprising a machine body assembly, the machine body assembly including a table, a turntable mounted on the table, the turntable having a plurality of processing stations for folding triangular dough to wrap filling, a dough-pulling assembly for pulling out and flattening dough on one side of the upper part of the turntable, a cutting assembly for cutting the pulled dough on the dough-pulling assembly, a dough-feeding assembly for feeding dough onto the dough-pulling assembly at one end of the dough-pulling assembly, and a dough-transferring assembly for transferring dough to the processing stations at the other end of the dough-pulling assembly, a filling discharge component for extruding filling onto the dough at the processing stations mounted on the upper part of the turntable, a stirring assembly for mixing the filling evenly mounted inside the filling discharge component, and a conveyor assembly for discharging the finished triangular pies mounted on one side of the upper part of the turntable.

[0006] This setup uses the main body assembly as the basic framework of the device, with the tabletop providing a mounting platform for other components. The turntable rotates on the tabletop, and multiple processing stations on it pass through different process areas sequentially as the turntable rotates. The dough feeding assembly conveys the dough to the noodle-pulling assembly, which grips the dough with claws and stretches it under the action of a sliding plate. Simultaneously, a dough suction cup keeps the dough stable. The cutting assembly cuts the stretched dough, which is then transferred to the turntable processing station by the transfer suction cup. The filling discharge assembly's mixing component first mixes the filling evenly, then the filling discharge assembly squeezes the filling onto the dough. The turntable rotates, causing the dough to reach the folding station, completing the filling wrapping. Finally, the conveyor assembly discharges the finished product.

[0007] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, each processing station is equipped with several folding plates and a material support plate. The folding plates are hinged to the processing station. A cam assembly is fixedly installed on the table below each processing station. The cam assembly is located under the folding plates at different positions. Each time the turntable rotates, the cam assembly, driven by a servo motor, strikes the cam fan plate of the cam assembly of the corresponding folding plate to fold and wrap the triangular pie dough. Finally, the dough is moved to the material support plate. A unique ejector cylinder is installed at the bottom of the conveyor assembly near the material support plate to eject the wrapped triangular pie onto the conveyor assembly for output.

[0008] In each processing station, a folding cylinder drives a folding plate to rotate, gradually folding and wrapping the dough containing the filling into a triangular shape using a pre-set angle and force. Once the dough is folded and wrapped, a push-out cylinder is activated, generating an upward thrust to push the formed triangular pie from the processing station onto the transition plate of the conveyor assembly for subsequent transport.

[0009] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, a power distribution box is installed on the top side of one side of the fuselage assembly.

[0010] This electrical distribution box is installed on the top side of the machine body assembly and is connected to the various power components such as motors and cylinders in the device through internal electrical components and wiring. Operators can set parameters and start or stop the equipment operation on the distribution box. According to the set instructions, the distribution box controls the working status and operating parameters of each component, realizing the electrical control and automated operation of the entire manufacturing device.

[0011] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, a frame for fixing the various components is installed on the top of the fuselage assembly.

[0012] This frame is installed on top of the machine body assembly, providing fixed support for components such as the noodle sheet assembly, cutting knife assembly, and noodle sheet supply assembly. The frame adopts a robust structural design and is connected to the machine body assembly by bolts or welding. It withstands the gravity, tension, and vibration generated by each component during operation, maintaining the positional stability of each component during operation, ensuring the relative positional accuracy between components, and guaranteeing the normal operation of the device.

[0013] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the noodle sheet assembly includes a fixed tray, on which a sliding plate is slidably mounted. The sliding plate is driven by a lead screw slide to perform linear reciprocating motion. A gripper is installed on the upper part of one end of the sliding plate, and a noodle sheet suction cup is installed in the middle of the sliding plate. The noodle sheet is transferred from the noodle sheet feeding assembly to the tray, gripped by the gripper on the sliding plate, pulled out as the sliding plate moves, and held stable by the noodle sheet suction cup.

[0014] In this noodle sheet assembly, a lead screw slide drives a sliding plate to reciprocate linearly on a pallet. After the noodle sheet is transferred from the noodle sheet feeding assembly to the pallet, the grippers close to hold one end of the sheet. As the sliding plate moves, the sheet is gradually pulled out. Suction cups adhere to the noodle sheet surface, providing stable support and preventing deformation or slippage during stretching, ensuring the stretched sheet has a uniform thickness and regular shape. Finally, a cutting assembly cuts the stretched sheet.

[0015] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the noodle sheet feeding assembly includes a support frame, on which a conveyor belt is mounted for conveying the noodle sheets. A fan is mounted above the conveyor belt, and a feeding conveyor belt is mounted at one end of the conveyor belt. A pressing roller is mounted on the upper part of the feeding conveyor belt, and one end of the feeding conveyor belt is located at the upper part of the noodle sheet assembly.

[0016] When the dough sheet feeding assembly is in operation, the feeding conveyor belt transports the pre-made dough sheets to the conveyor belt. The pressing roller applies pressure to the dough sheets, ensuring they are flat and adhered to the conveyor belt, preventing them from piling up or curling up. A blower blows air onto the dough sheets, separating and organizing them to prevent sticking and ensuring each dough sheet is smoothly transported to the dough sheet feeding assembly.

[0017] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the cutting assembly includes a dough pressing cylinder for pressing the end of the dough and a cutting cylinder for cutting the dough. The output shaft of the dough pressing cylinder is equipped with a pressure plate, and the output shaft of the cutting cylinder is equipped with a cutting blade.

[0018] When the cutting assembly is working, the dough pressing cylinder is activated first. The output shaft drives the pressure plate downward, pressing and fixing the stretched dough end to the dough stretching assembly to prevent the dough from moving during the cutting process. Then the cutting cylinder is activated, and the output shaft pushes the cutter downward to cut the dough into the required size, completing the dough processing.

[0019] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the dough sheet supply assembly includes a transfer suction cup for adsorbing the cut dough sheet. The transfer suction cup is mounted on a moving plate. The moving plate is driven by a horizontal cylinder for horizontal transfer, and the horizontal cylinder is driven by a lifting cylinder for vertical transfer.

[0020] In this configuration for the dough assembly, the lifting cylinder first drives the horizontal cylinder and the moving plate to descend vertically, bringing the transfer suction cup close to the cut dough. The transfer suction cup then uses vacuum adsorption to pick up the dough. Next, the lifting cylinder drives the dough to rise vertically, and then the horizontal cylinder drives the moving plate to move horizontally, precisely transferring the dough above the processing station on the turntable. Finally, the lifting cylinder descends again, placing the dough on the processing station.

[0021] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the stirring assembly includes a stirring motor, the output shaft of the stirring motor is equipped with a stirring shaft, the stirring shaft is located inside the storage hopper of the filling discharge component, and the filling is stirred. The bottom discharge port of the storage hopper is located on the processing station of the turntable.

[0022] When the stirring motor of this mixing component is powered on, the output shaft drives the stirring shaft to rotate within the storage hopper of the filling discharge unit. The blades of the stirring shaft agitate the filling by rotation, ensuring that the various components in the filling are fully mixed and evenly distributed, guaranteeing a consistent texture and flavor. The evenly mixed filling is then extruded through the discharge port at the bottom of the storage hopper onto the dough at the turntable processing station under the action of the filling discharge unit.

[0023] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the conveyor assembly includes a discharge conveyor belt, one end of which is equipped with a transition plate. The triangular pies processed on the turntable are ejected to the transition plate by an ejector cylinder. A pusher plate is provided on the transition plate. The pusher plate is driven to reciprocate by a pusher cylinder. The triangular pies on the transition plate are pushed onto the discharge conveyor belt for output by the pusher plate.

[0024] In this setup, after the triangular pie on the turntable is wrapped and shaped at the processing station, the ejector cylinder pushes the pie onto the transition plate. The pusher cylinder drives the pusher plate to perform a reciprocating linear motion, pushing the triangular pie on the transition plate to the discharge conveyor belt, which then transports the finished product to the subsequent packaging or processing stage.

[0025] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: 1. This automatic and rapid triangular pie-making device achieves parallel operation at multiple stations by setting up several processing stations on a turntable. Processes such as dough stretching, filling, and dough folding can be performed simultaneously at different stations, greatly shortening the overall production cycle. Compared to the sequential completion of processes described in the comparative document, this device can significantly increase production capacity, meet the growing market demand for triangular pies in bulk, and significantly improve enterprise production efficiency and market competitiveness. 2. In this automatic and rapid triangular pie-making device, the cooperation between the grippers and the dough suction cups in the dough-pulling component, as well as the precise drive of the slide plate by the screw slide, can stably pull out and flatten dough of uniform thickness and regular shape; the stirring motor and stirring shaft of the stirring component can fully stir the filling, ensuring that the filling is uniform; the coordinated operation of multiple workstations and the precise control of each component ensure a high degree of consistency in product quality indicators such as filling amount and dough wrapping tightness, improve the product standardization level, and help enterprises establish a good brand image. 3. In this automatic and rapid triangular pie making device, from the dough feeding component conveying the dough, to the dough pulling component processing the dough, the filling discharge component filling the filling, the processing station completing the wrapping and shaping, and then to the conveyor assembly discharging the finished product, the entire production process is fully automated, reducing manual intervention, lowering labor costs and the risk of human error, while improving the safety and stability of the production process.

[0027] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0028] This invention provides an automatic and rapid triangular pie-making device, such as... Figures 1-9 As shown, the machine includes a body assembly 1, which includes a table 11. A turntable 12 is mounted on the table 11. The turntable 12 has several processing stations for folding triangular dough to wrap fillings. A dough sheet assembly 2 is provided on the upper side of the turntable 12 to pull out and flatten the dough. A cutting knife assembly 5 is provided on the dough sheet assembly 2 to cut the pulled dough. A dough sheet feeding assembly 4 is provided on the upper part of one end of the dough sheet assembly 2 to feed the dough to the dough sheet assembly 2. A dough sheet supply assembly 6 is provided on the upper part of the other end of the dough sheet assembly 2 to transfer the dough to the processing station. A filling discharge component 10 is also installed on the upper part of the turntable 12 to squeeze the filling onto the dough at the processing station. A mixing component 7 is installed inside the filling discharge component 10 to mix the filling evenly. A conveyor assembly 8 is installed on the upper side of the turntable 12 to discharge the finished triangular pie.

[0029] The machine body assembly 1 serves as the basic framework of the device, while the tabletop 11 provides an installation platform for other components. The turntable 12 rotates on the tabletop 11, and multiple processing stations on it pass through different process areas sequentially as the turntable 12 rotates. The dough feeding assembly 4 conveys the dough to the noodle-pulling assembly 2, where the noodle-pulling assembly 2 grips the dough with grippers 25 and stretches it under the action of the slide plate 22. Simultaneously, the dough suction cup 24 keeps the dough stable, and the cutting assembly 5 cuts the stretched dough, which is then transferred to the processing station on the turntable 12 by the dough assembly 6 via the transfer suction cup 61. The mixing assembly 7 within the filling discharge assembly 10 first mixes the filling evenly, and then the filling discharge assembly 10 squeezes the filling onto the dough. The turntable 12 rotates, causing the dough to reach the folding station to complete the filling wrapping. Finally, the conveyor assembly 8 discharges the finished product. All components work together to form a complete automated production line from dough processing and filling to finished product discharge. The multi-station turntable design enables parallel operation, significantly improving production efficiency; the clearly defined component settings ensure precise execution of each production step, guaranteeing the standardization and stability of triangular pie production, and meeting the large-scale, high-quality production needs of the food processing industry.

[0030] In this embodiment, each processing station is equipped with several folding plates 13 and a material support plate 14. The folding plates 13 are hinged to the processing station. A cam assembly 15 is fixedly installed on the table surface 11 under each processing station. The cam assembly 15 is set under the folding plates 13 at different positions. When the turntable 12 rotates, the cam assembly 15, driven by the servo motor 16, strikes the cam fan plate 17 of the cam assembly 15 of the folding plate 13 at the corresponding position to fold and wrap the triangular pie dough. Finally, it moves to the material support plate 14. A unique ejector cylinder 18 is installed at the bottom of the conveyor assembly 8 near the material support plate 14 to eject the wrapped triangular pie to the conveyor assembly 8 for output.

[0031] Once the dough is folded and wrapped, the ejector cylinder 18 is activated, generating an upward thrust to eject the formed triangular pie from the processing station onto the transition plate 81 of the conveyor assembly 8 for subsequent transport. Precise control of the cam assembly 15 and the ejector cylinder 18 ensures a stable and efficient folding and shaping process for the triangular pie, guaranteeing consistent product shape and aesthetics. The automated ejection operation avoids damage that may be caused by manual handling, improving the yield rate. Simultaneously, in conjunction with the conveyor assembly 8, it enables smooth transfer of finished products, ensuring the continuity of the production process.

[0032] Specifically, a power distribution box 9 is installed on the top side of one side of the fuselage assembly 1.

[0033] The distribution box 9 is installed on the top side of the machine body assembly 1, and is connected to the various motors, cylinders, and other power components in the device through internal electrical components and wiring. Operators can set parameters and start or stop the equipment on the distribution box 9. Based on the set instructions, the distribution box 9 controls the working status and operating parameters of each component, realizing electrical control and automated operation of the entire production device. The distribution box 9 enables centralized control of the device, allowing operators to flexibly adjust parameters such as production speed, filling extrusion volume, and dough stretching degree according to production needs, improving the convenience and flexibility of equipment operation. At the same time, centralized electrical control facilitates equipment troubleshooting and maintenance, ensures stable equipment operation, and improves production efficiency.

[0034] Furthermore, a frame 3 for fixing various components is installed on the top of the fuselage assembly 1.

[0035] Frame 3 is mounted on top of the machine body assembly 1, providing fixed support for components such as the noodle sheet assembly 2, the cutting knife assembly 5, and the noodle sheet supply assembly 6. Frame 3 features a robust structural design and is connected to the machine body assembly 1 via bolts or welding. It withstands the gravity, tension, and vibration generated by each component during operation, maintaining the stability of each component's position and ensuring the relative positional accuracy between components, thus guaranteeing the normal operation of the device. Frame 3 enhances the overall stability and rigidity of the device structure, reducing manufacturing errors caused by component shaking or displacement, and improving the reliability of equipment operation. A stable installation structure helps extend the service life of each component, reduces equipment maintenance costs, and provides a safe working environment for operators, ensuring the safety of the production process.

[0036] Furthermore, the noodle sheet assembly 2 includes a fixed tray 21, on which a slide plate 22 is slidably mounted. The slide plate 22 is driven by a lead screw slide 23 to perform linear reciprocating motion. A gripper 25 is installed on the upper part of one end of the slide plate 22, and a noodle sheet suction cup 24 is installed in the middle of the slide plate 22. The noodle sheet is transferred from the noodle sheet feeding assembly 4 to the tray 21, gripped by the gripper 25 on the slide plate 22, and pulled out as the slide plate 22 moves. It is then held in place by the noodle sheet suction cup 24.

[0037] In the dough sheet assembly 2, the lead screw slide 23 drives the slide plate 22 to perform linear reciprocating motion on the tray 21. After the dough sheet is transferred from the dough sheet feeding assembly 4 to the tray 21, the gripper 25 closes to hold one end of the dough sheet. As the slide plate 22 moves, the dough sheet is gradually pulled out. The dough sheet suction cup 24 adheres to the surface of the dough sheet, providing stable support and preventing deformation or slippage during stretching. This ensures that the stretched dough sheet has a uniform thickness and regular shape. Finally, the cutter assembly 5 cuts the stretched dough sheet. The precise transmission of the lead screw slide 23 and the coordinated work of the gripper 25 and the dough sheet suction cup 24 achieve efficient stretching and stable processing of the dough sheet. This produces dough sheets that meet the process requirements, providing a high-quality foundation for subsequent filling and shaping, ensuring the taste and appearance quality of the finished triangular pie, while also improving the automation level of dough sheet production, reducing manual intervention, and increasing production efficiency.

[0038] Furthermore, the noodle sheet feeding assembly 4 includes a support 41, on which a conveyor belt 43 is mounted for conveying the noodle sheets. A fan 42 is mounted above the conveyor belt 43. A feeding conveyor belt 44 is mounted at one end of the conveyor belt 43. A pressing roller 45 is mounted on the upper part of the feeding conveyor belt 44. One end of the feeding conveyor belt 44 is located above the noodle sheet assembly 2.

[0039] When the dough sheet feeding assembly 4 is operating, the feeding conveyor belt 44 transports the pre-made dough sheets to the conveyor belt 43. The pressing roller 45 applies pressure to the dough sheets, ensuring they adhere smoothly to the conveyor belt and preventing them from piling up or curling. The blower 42 blows air onto the dough sheets, separating and organizing them to prevent sticking and ensuring each sheet is smoothly transported to the noodle sheet assembly 2. The combination of the feeding conveyor belt 44, the pressing roller 45, and the blower 42 achieves orderly and stable dough sheet transport, improving the efficiency and accuracy of dough sheet feeding. This effectively avoids damage and disorder during transport, providing favorable conditions for the subsequent operation of the noodle sheet assembly 2, ensuring the smooth operation of the entire production process, and reducing the risk of production interruptions due to dough sheet transport problems.

[0040] Furthermore, the cutting assembly 5 includes a dough pressing cylinder 51 for pressing the dough end and a cutting cylinder 52 for cutting the dough. The output shaft of the dough pressing cylinder 51 is equipped with a pressure plate, and the output shaft of the cutting cylinder 52 is equipped with a cutting blade 53.

[0041] When the cutting assembly 5 is working, the dough pressing cylinder 51 is activated first. The output shaft drives the pressure plate downward, pressing and fixing the stretched dough end onto the dough stretching assembly 2 to prevent the dough from moving during the cutting process. Then, the cutting cylinder 52 is activated, and the output shaft pushes the cutter 53 downward, cutting the dough into the required size, completing the dough processing. The sequential action of the dough pressing cylinder 51 and the cutting cylinder 52 ensures the accuracy and stability of the dough cutting. Precisely cut dough of consistent size meets the requirements for making triangular pies, helping to improve product quality and production efficiency. At the same time, the automated cutting operation reduces errors and labor intensity from manual cutting, improving the automation level of the equipment and production safety.

[0042] Furthermore, the dough sheet assembly 6 includes a transfer suction cup 61 for adsorbing the cut dough sheet. The transfer suction cup 61 is mounted on a moving plate 64, which is driven by a horizontal cylinder 63 for horizontal transfer and by a lifting cylinder 62 for vertical transfer.

[0043] In the dough assembly 6, the lifting cylinder 62 first drives the horizontal cylinder 63 and the moving plate 64 to descend vertically, bringing the transfer suction cup 61 close to the cut dough. The transfer suction cup 61 then adsorbs the dough using vacuum adsorption. Next, the lifting cylinder 62 lifts the dough vertically, and then the horizontal cylinder 63 drives the moving plate 64 to move horizontally, precisely transferring the dough above the processing station of the turntable 12. Finally, the lifting cylinder 62 descends again, placing the dough on the processing station. Through the precise control of the lifting cylinder 62 and the horizontal cylinder 63, efficient and precise dough transfer is achieved. The adsorption method of the transfer suction cup 61 ensures that the dough will not fall or be damaged during the transfer process, guaranteeing the success rate and accuracy of dough transfer. The precise coordination with the processing station of the turntable 12 improves the continuity and production efficiency of the entire production process, ensuring the smooth production of triangular pies.

[0044] Furthermore, the mixing assembly 7 includes a mixing motor 71, and a mixing shaft 72 is mounted on the output shaft of the mixing motor 71. The mixing shaft 72 is located inside the storage hopper of the filling discharge component 10 to mix the filling. The bottom discharge port of the storage hopper is located on the processing station of the turntable 12.

[0045] After the stirring motor 71 of the stirring assembly 7 is powered on, the output shaft drives the stirring shaft 72 to rotate within the storage hopper of the filling discharge component 10. The blades of the stirring shaft 72 agitate the filling by rotation, ensuring that the various components in the filling are fully mixed and evenly distributed, guaranteeing a consistent texture and flavor. The evenly mixed filling is then extruded through the discharge port at the bottom of the storage hopper onto the dough at the processing station of the turntable 12 under the action of the filling discharge component 10. The operation of the stirring assembly 7 ensures the uniformity of the filling, maintaining consistent taste and quality for each triangular pie, thus improving product quality. The uniform filling also aids in the shaping and wrapping of the dough, ensuring consistent and aesthetically pleasing product appearance, meeting consumer demands for food quality and taste, and enhancing the market competitiveness of the company's products.

[0046] Furthermore, the conveyor assembly 8 includes a discharge conveyor belt 82, with a transition plate 81 installed at one end of the discharge conveyor belt 82. The triangular pies processed on the turntable 12 are ejected to the transition plate 81 by an ejector cylinder. A pusher plate 85 is provided on the transition plate 81. The pusher plate 85 is driven to reciprocate by a pusher cylinder 84. The triangular pies on the transition plate 81 are pushed onto the discharge conveyor belt 82 for output by the pusher plate 85.

[0047] After the triangular pie on turntable 12 is wrapped and shaped at the processing station, the ejector cylinder ejects the pie onto the transition plate 81. The pusher cylinder 84 drives the pusher plate 85 in a reciprocating linear motion, pushing the triangular pie on the transition plate 81 to the discharge conveyor belt 82. The discharge conveyor belt 82 then transports the finished product to the subsequent packaging or processing stage. The coordinated operation of the ejector cylinder, pusher cylinder 84, and discharge conveyor belt 82 achieves automated output of the triangular pie. This avoids contamination and damage that may be caused by manual handling, ensuring product hygiene and quality safety. The efficient finished product output process improves production efficiency, making the entire production device a complete and smooth automated production line, meeting the needs of large-scale production.

[0048] In use, the automatic and rapid triangular pie-making device of the present invention first places the pre-made dough on the feeding conveyor belt 44, which then transports the dough to the conveyor belt 43. During the conveying process, the pressing roller 45 applies pressure to the dough, making it flat and adhered to the conveyor belt to prevent stacking or lifting; the blower 42 blows air onto the dough to separate and arrange it, preventing sticking and ensuring that the dough is transported in an orderly and stable manner to the tray 21 of the pie assembly 2.

[0049] After the dough reaches the support plate 21, the slide plate 22 begins linear reciprocating motion driven by the lead screw slide 23. The gripper 25 at one end of the slide plate 22 closes to hold one end of the dough, and as the slide plate 22 moves, the dough is gradually pulled out. Simultaneously, the dough suction cup 24 adheres to the surface of the dough, providing stable support and preventing deformation or slippage during stretching, ensuring that the pulled-out dough has a uniform thickness and regular shape. When the dough is stretched to the appropriate size, the dough pressing cylinder 51 is activated, and its output shaft drives the pressure plate downwards, pressing and fixing the end of the dough onto the support plate 21. Subsequently, the cutting cylinder 52 actuates, pushing the cutter 53 downwards to cut the dough.

[0050] The lifting cylinder 62 of the dough assembly 6 drives the horizontal cylinder 63 and the moving plate 64 to descend vertically, bringing the transfer suction cup 61 close to the cut dough. The transfer suction cup 61 then adsorbs the dough using vacuum adsorption. Next, the lifting cylinder 62 drives the dough to rise vertically, and then the horizontal cylinder 63 drives the moving plate 64 to move horizontally, precisely transferring the dough above the processing station of the turntable 12. Finally, the lifting cylinder 62 descends again, placing the dough on the processing station.

[0051] After the stirring motor 71 of the stirring assembly 7 is powered on, its output shaft drives the stirring shaft 72 to rotate inside the storage hopper of the filling discharge component 10. The blades of the stirring shaft 72 agitate the filling, ensuring that the various components in the filling are fully mixed and evenly distributed. When the turntable 12 rotates and the dough reaches the filling filling station, the filling discharge component 10 squeezes the evenly mixed filling from the discharge port at the bottom of the storage hopper onto the dough.

[0052] Turntable 12 continues to rotate, and the processing station carrying the filling and dough reaches the folding station. At this time, the folding cylinder drives the folding plate to flip, and through the set angle and force, the dough containing the filling is gradually folded and wrapped into a triangular shape.

[0053] Once the dough is folded and wrapped, the ejector cylinder is activated, generating an upward thrust to eject the formed triangular pie from the processing station onto the transition plate 81 of the conveyor assembly 8. The pusher cylinder 84 drives the pusher plate 85 to reciprocate linearly, pushing the triangular pie on the transition plate 81 to the discharge conveyor belt 82, which then transports the finished product to the subsequent packaging or processing stage.

[0054] Throughout the operation, the distribution box 9 is connected to various power components such as motors and cylinders via internal electrical components and wiring. Operators set relevant parameters and start or stop the equipment on the distribution box 9. Based on the set instructions, the distribution box 9 precisely controls the working status and operating parameters of each component, achieving automated operation of the entire manufacturing process. Simultaneously, the frame 3 provides stable support for each component, bearing the gravity, tension, and vibration generated during operation, maintaining the stability of each component's position, ensuring the relative positional accuracy between components, and guaranteeing the stable and reliable operation of the device.

[0055] Finally, it should be noted that the electronic components in the transfer suction cup 61, lifting cylinder 62, horizontal cylinder 63, etc. in this embodiment are all general standard parts or parts known to those skilled in the art. Their structure and principle can be learned by those skilled in the art through technical manuals or conventional experimental methods. In the idle part of this device, all the above-mentioned electrical components are connected by wires. The specific connection method should refer to the working order between each electrical component in the above working principle to complete the electrical connection. All of these are technologies known in the art.
