Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of baking equipment transfer technology, and more particularly to a baking equipment transfer device. Background Technology

[0002] Baking, also known as roasting or baking, refers to the process of dehydrating, drying, and hardening materials by applying dry heat below their ignition point. Baking is an indispensable step in the production of bread and cakes. Through baking, starch undergoes gelatinization and protein denaturation, resulting in the ripening of the bread and cakes and altering their texture. Baking requires the use of baking utensils for holding and storing the food; these utensils are essential tools in the baking process and include baking trays, loaf pans, pudding molds, etc.

[0003] Baking equipment requires circulation during use, such as when baking bread in baking pans. During the baking process, the pans need to be transferred and managed between different stages (e.g., oven, cooling rack, packaging area). During this transfer, a large number of baking pans need to be moved at once. After placement, the pans are directly on the transfer rack. Due to inertia and inclines during the back-and-forth movement, the directly placed pans may wobble or slide off the rack, causing them to fall during the transfer. Furthermore, when placing the pans, they are pushed onto the rack from one side. During this process, the bottom of the pan rubs against the rack, causing wear and tear over time, thus affecting the pans' lifespan. Therefore, a baking equipment circulation device is proposed. Summary of the Invention

[0004] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this invention provides a baking utensil transfer device to solve the problem that when baking trays are placed directly on a transfer rack, inertia and inclines can cause them to wobble or slide off the rack due to inertia, resulting in them falling during transfer. Furthermore, during the placement of the baking tray, pushing it onto the rack from one side causes friction between the bottom of the tray and the rack, leading to wear and tear on the bottom over time and affecting the tray's lifespan.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: A baking appliance transfer device includes a transfer base with a transfer component on it. A transfer bottom placement frame is located above the transfer base, and a bottom support plate is fixedly installed between the transfer bottom placement frame and the transfer base. Multiple upper placement frames are located on the top of the transfer bottom placement frame, and an upper adjustment plate is fixedly installed at the bottom of each upper placement frame. A height adjustment component is located between the transfer bottom placement frame and the upper adjustment plate, and a height adjustment component is also located between adjacent upper placement frames and the upper adjustment plate. Lifting holes are provided at the top of the transfer bottom placement frame and the upper placement frames, and a mounting frame is movably installed within the lifting holes. An auxiliary moving component is located on the mounting frame. A bottom support plate is installed at the bottom of the bottom support plate and the upper adjustment plate, and an end blocking component is located on the bottom support plate. A lifting synchronization component is located between the bottom support plate and the mounting frame.

[0006] Preferably, the auxiliary moving component includes a plurality of conveying rollers rotatably mounted on the mounting frame, the plurality of conveying rollers being arranged in a linear array.

[0007] Preferably, the end blocking assembly includes side blocking holes formed on the top of the bottom placement frame and the top of the upper placement frame, and two side blocking blocks are fixedly installed on the top of the bottom tray, with the side blocking blocks movably installed in the side blocking holes.

[0008] Preferably, the lifting synchronization assembly includes a rotating shaft rotatably mounted on a bottom support plate and an upper adjusting plate, a rotating gear fixedly sleeved on the rotating shaft, an adjusting rack fixedly mounted on the bottom of the mounting frame, and a movable rack fixedly mounted on the top of the bottom support plate. The adjusting rack and the movable rack are located on both sides of the rotating gear and mesh with the rotating gear. A limit groove is formed on the side wall of the lifting hole, and a limit block is fixedly mounted on the side of the mounting frame. The limit block is slidably mounted in the limit groove.

[0009] Preferably, a rotating disk is fixedly installed at the end of the rotating shaft, a rotating handle is movably installed on the rotating disk, an anti-detachment cap is fixedly installed at one end of the rotating handle, a fixing stud is fixedly installed on the side of the anti-detachment cap, and multiple bolt grooves are opened on the sides of the bottom support plate and the upper adjustment plate, and one end of the fixing stud is threaded into the corresponding bolt groove.

[0010] Preferably, a germicidal lamp, which is an ultraviolet lamp, is installed at the bottom of the bottom tray, and anti-slip pads are installed on the top of the bottom placement frame and the top placement frame.

[0011] Preferably, the transfer assembly includes a push rod fixedly installed on the side of the transfer base, a handrail fixedly installed on the push rod, and casters rotatably installed on the bottom of the transfer base.

[0012] Preferably, the height adjustment component includes adjustment slots formed at the top of the bottom placement frame and the top of the upper placement frame, with the bottom end of the upper adjustment plate inserted into the corresponding adjustment slot.

[0013] Preferably, both the bottom placement frame and the upper placement frame have positioning screw holes on one side, and positioning bolts are threaded onto the positioning screw holes. The upper adjustment plate has multiple positioning screw grooves on its side, and one end of the positioning bolt is threaded into a corresponding positioning screw groove.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are: In this invention, the baking utensil transfer device is used when baking bread and cake products. The auxiliary moving component is designed to push the baking tray inward directly during the placement of the baking tray. The pushing process is rolling friction, which can greatly reduce the pushing resistance compared with the traditional sliding friction of the baking tray, and at the same time, it is not easy to damage the base of the baking tray. In this invention, the baking appliance transfer device is equipped with a lifting synchronization component. After the baking tray is placed in the designated position, the rotating disc will cause the adjusting racks and moving racks on both sides to move relative to each other. The adjusting racks move downward, driving the conveying rollers to move into the lifting hole. The placed baking tray will then contact the top of the bottom and upper placement frames of the transfer device. The moving racks move upward, causing the two side blocking blocks to move upward, blocking the position of the placed baking tray from both sides. This prevents the baking tray from slipping due to sudden inertia and ups and downs during the transfer process, thus ensuring good safety. In this invention, the baking appliance transfer device is equipped with a height adjustment component. During the baking process, the height of the bread inside the baking tray may vary. By loosening the positioning bolt and moving the height position of the upper placement frame to accommodate the placement of the baked bread, and then rotating the positioning bolt in the opposite direction, the positioning bolt will move into a corresponding positioning screw groove, thereby fixing the adjusted height position of the upper adjustment plate. This allows for height adjustment and provides strong adaptability. Attached Figure Description

Furthermore, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "installed," "connected," and "linked" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal connection of two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this patent based on the specific circumstances.

[0019] Example: Refer to Figure 1-6A baking appliance transfer device includes a transfer base 1, a transfer component on the transfer base 1, a transfer bottom placement frame 2 above the transfer base 1, a bottom support plate 4 fixedly installed between the transfer bottom placement frame 2 and the transfer base 1, multiple upper placement frames 3 on the top of the transfer bottom placement frame 2, an upper adjustment plate 5 fixedly installed at the bottom of the upper placement frame 3, a height adjustment component between the transfer bottom placement frame 2 and the upper adjustment plate 5, and a height adjustment component between adjacent upper placement frames 3 and the upper adjustment plate 5. Lifting holes 11 are opened at the top of the transfer bottom placement frame 2 and the upper placement frames 3, and an installation frame 12 is movably installed in the lifting holes 11. An auxiliary moving component is provided on the installation frame 12. A bottom support plate 19 is installed at the bottom of the bottom support plate 4 and the upper adjustment plate 5, an end blocking component is provided on the bottom support plate 19, and a lifting synchronization component is provided between the bottom support plate 19 and the installation frame 12.

[0020] As a technical optimization of the present invention, the auxiliary moving component includes multiple conveying rollers 13 rotatably mounted on the mounting frame 12. The multiple conveying rollers 13 are arranged in a linear array. After the baked baking tray is taken out, it is placed on the bottom placement frame 2 or the upper placement frame 3. During the placement process, the height of the conveying rollers 13 on the bottom placement frame 2 and the upper placement frame 3 is higher than the anti-slip mat 10. When placing the baking tray, it can be pushed inward directly. The pushing process is rolling friction, which can greatly reduce the pushing resistance compared with the traditional sliding friction of the baking tray. At the same time, it is not easy to damage the base of the baking tray. After the baking tray is pushed to the middle of the bottom placement frame 2 and the upper placement frame 3, the pushing is stopped.

[0021] As a technical optimization of the present invention, the lifting synchronization assembly includes a rotating shaft 17 rotatably mounted on a bottom support plate 4 and an upper adjusting plate 5. A rotating gear 18 is fixedly sleeved on the rotating shaft 17. An adjusting rack 16 is fixedly mounted on the bottom of the mounting frame 12. A movable rack 20 is fixedly mounted on the top of the bottom support plate 19. The adjusting rack 16 and the movable rack 20 are located on both sides of the rotating gear 18 and mesh with it. A limit groove 14 is provided on the side wall of the lifting hole 11. A limit block 15 is fixedly mounted on the side of the mounting frame 12 and slides within the limit groove 14. A rotating disk 24 is fixedly mounted at the end of the rotating shaft 17. A rotating handle 25 is movably mounted on the rotating disk 24. An anti-detachment cap 26 is fixedly mounted on one end of the rotating handle 25. A fixing stud 27 is fixedly mounted on the side of the anti-detachment cap 26. Multiple bolt slots 28 are provided on the sides of both the bottom support plate 4 and the upper adjusting plate 5. One end of the fixing stud 27 is fixedly mounted on the side of the rotating handle 25. The end thread is installed in the corresponding bolt groove 28. The top of the bottom placement frame 2 and the upper placement frame 3 are equipped with anti-slip pads 10. Rotating the handle 25 drives the fixing stud 27 to rotate. After the end of the fixing stud 27 is disengaged from the bolt groove 28, the rotating disk 24 can be rotated. The rotating disk 24 drives the rotating shaft 17 to rotate, thereby driving the rotating gear 18 to rotate. The adjusting rack 16 and the moving rack 20 on both sides will move relative to each other. The adjusting rack 16 moves down, causing the mounting frame 12 to move down. At this time, the conveying roller 13 will move into the lifting hole 11. The placed baking tray will contact the top of the bottom placement frame 2 and the upper placement frame 3. The anti-slip pad 10 increases the friction of the contact after the baking tray is placed, making it less likely to slip during the circulation process. The anti-slip pad 10 is made of high-temperature resistant rubber. The limit block 15 and the limit groove 14 can limit the vertical position of the lifting and moving of the mounting frame 12.

[0022] As a technical optimization of the present invention, the end blocking assembly includes side blocking holes 21 opened on the top of the bottom placement frame 2 and the upper placement frame 3. Two side blocking blocks 22 are fixedly installed on the top of the bottom support plate 19. The side blocking blocks 22 are movably installed in the side blocking holes 21. When the moving rack 20 moves upward, it drives the bottom support plate 19 to move upward. The two side blocking blocks 22 connected to it will extend out from the side blocking holes 21. The two side blocking blocks 22 will block from both sides, blocking the position of the placed baking tray, avoiding the problem of the baking tray slipping due to sudden inertia and ups and downs during the circulation process, thus ensuring good safety.

[0023] As a technical optimization of the present invention, a sterilization lamp 23 is installed at the bottom of the bottom tray 19. The sterilization lamp 23 is an ultraviolet lamp. The sterilization lamp 23 can achieve a sterilization effect and prevent bacteria from entering the baked bread during the cooling process. The transfer component includes a push rod 7 fixedly installed on the side of the transfer base 1. A handrail 8 is fixedly installed on the push rod 7. A universal wheel 6 is rotatably installed at the bottom of the transfer base 1. The universal wheel 6 facilitates the transfer of the baking tray. The handrail 8 facilitates the movement of the entire transfer device.

[0024] As a technical optimization of the present invention, the height adjustment component includes adjustment slots 9 formed at the top of the bottom placement frame 2 and the top placement frame 3. The bottom end of the upper adjustment plate 5 is respectively inserted into the corresponding adjustment slot 9. Positioning screw holes 29 are formed on one side of both the bottom placement frame 2 and the upper placement frame 3, and positioning bolts 30 are threaded onto the positioning screw holes 29. Multiple positioning screw grooves 31 are formed on the side of the upper adjustment plate 5, and one end of the positioning bolt 30 is threaded into a corresponding positioning screw groove 31. During the baking process, the bread inside the baking pan bakes... There will also be differences in height. When baking bread that is relatively tall, it is necessary to adjust the distance between the bottom placement frame 2 and the upper placement frame 3, and the distance between the upper placement frames 3. Loosen the positioning bolt 30 so that one end is disengaged from the positioning screw groove 31, and then move the height position of the upper placement frame 3 to meet the placement of the bread after baking. Then, rotate the positioning bolt 30 in the opposite direction again. The positioning bolt 30 will move into the corresponding positioning screw groove 31, which can fix the adjusted height position of the upper adjustment plate 5, thereby realizing height adjustment and making it highly adaptable.

[0025] In use: When baking bread and cakes, baking utensils are required. Commonly used baking utensils include baking trays. During baking, the baking tray needs to be rotated. After baking, the tray is removed and placed on the bottom or upper placement frame 3 of the rotating tray. The conveyor rollers 13 allow for easy placement; simply push the tray inwards. This rolling friction reduces resistance compared to traditional sliding friction, minimizing damage to the tray's base. Once the tray is pushed to the center, stop. Rotating the handle 25 rotates the rotating disk 24, which in turn rotates the rotating shaft 17. Under the action of the rotating gear 18, the adjusting racks 16 and moving racks 20 on both sides move relative to each other. The adjusting racks 16 move downwards, driving... As the mounting frame 12 moves downward, the conveyor roller 13 will move into the lifting hole 11. The placed baking tray will then contact the top of the bottom placement frame 2 and the top placement frame 3. The moving rack 20 will move upward, causing the bottom support plate 19 to move upward. The two side blocking blocks 22 will block the baking tray from both sides, preventing it from slipping due to sudden inertia or inclines during the transfer process. This ensures good safety. For baking taller bread, loosen the positioning bolt 30, move the height of the top placement frame 3 to accommodate the bread after baking, and then rotate the positioning bolt 30 in the opposite direction to fix the adjusted height of the upper adjustment plate 5. This allows for height adjustment, making it highly adaptable and easy to use.

[0026] It should be noted that, in this document, relational terms such as "first" and "second" are used only to distinguish one entity or operation from another, and do not necessarily require or imply any such actual relationship or order between these entities or operations. Furthermore, the terms "comprising," "including," or any other variations thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, such that a process, method, article, or apparatus that comprises a list of elements includes not only those elements but also other elements not expressly listed, or elements inherent to such process, method, article, or apparatus.

[0027] Although embodiments of the invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
