Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of pasta machine technology, and in particular to a rotating dough-jointing structure for a pasta machine. Background Technology

[0002] The existing noodle-making machine, as seen in Chinese Invention Patent CN111165529B, entitled "A Fully Automatic Noodle Machine," authorized on April 5, 2022, includes a housing, a flour feeding assembly, a water dispensing assembly, a dough mixing assembly, a servo motor driving each assembly, a flour control component for controlling the amount of flour fed, and a water control component for controlling the amount of water dispensed. The housing has a flour storage chamber and a water tank formed on its upper part, and a mixing base installed at its lower part. The mixing base has a mixing groove and a discharge roller mounting groove. A mixing component and a dough dispensing turntable are rotatably connected within the mixing groove. A spiral discharge roller is rotatably connected within the discharge roller mounting groove. Flour in the flour storage chamber enters the mixing base through the flour feeding assembly, and water in the water tank enters the mixing base through the water dispensing assembly to mix with the flour. The rotation of the rotating component ensures thorough mixing of the flour and water, completing the dough mixing process. The mixed dough is then extruded into noodles by the spiral discharge roller.

[0003] However, the above-mentioned noodle machine still has the following shortcomings: (1) The receiving seat located below the noodle sleeve is integrally formed with the shell and cannot be rotated. Therefore, when the noodles extruded from the noodle sleeve fall into the receiving seat, the noodles will continue to fall in the same position and accumulate. The accumulated noodles are easy to stick together and affect the quality of the noodles; (2) Since the receiving seat is integrally formed with the shell, it cannot be stored or disassembled, resulting in a larger overall volume of the product and increasing the packaging and transportation costs of the product. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to at least solve or alleviate one of the above-mentioned technical problems, and to provide a rotating noodle-receiving structure for a noodle machine that provides uniform noodle contact, prevents noodle accumulation, and allows for movable storage of the noodle-receiving base.

[0005] The objective of this invention is achieved as follows: A rotating noodle-receiving structure for a noodle machine includes a main unit and a noodle-receiving plate. The upper front part of the main unit has a noodle-dispensing nozzle with several noodle-dispensing holes. The structure also includes a noodle-receiving seat. The lower front part of the main unit has a receiving portion for accommodating the noodle-receiving seat. The noodle-receiving seat is movably connected to the receiving portion. The noodle-receiving seat has a drive assembly and a rotating connector, which are kinetically connected. When the noodle-receiving seat moves out of the receiving portion, the lower end of the noodle-receiving plate is connected to the rotating connector, and the noodle-receiving plate is located below the several noodle-dispensing holes. In this rotating noodle-receiving structure, the drive assembly drives the rotating connector to rotate, which in turn drives the noodle-receiving plate to rotate. This ensures that the noodles discharged from the noodle-dispensing holes are evenly spread on the noodle-receiving plate, effectively reducing noodle accumulation and sticking, and improving noodle quality. Furthermore, when not in use, the noodle-receiving seat can be moved and stored inside the receiving portion of the main unit, reducing the overall size of the noodle machine and facilitating product packaging and transportation.

[0006] The objective of this invention can also be achieved by the following technical measures: Specifically, the rotating connector is provided with an elastic fixing groove, and a fixing post extends downward from the bottom of the contact plate. The fixing post is inserted into the elastic fixing groove and the fixing post and the elastic fixing groove are elastically abutted. This elastic fixing method of inserting the fixing post into the elastic fixing groove is convenient to operate and has a good fixing effect.

[0007] Furthermore, the inner wall of the elastic fixing groove is provided with a number of elastic protrusions, which elastically abut against the outer wall of the fixing column, so that the fixing column can be well clamped in the elastic fixing groove by the number of elastic protrusions.

[0008] Specifically, the rotating connector includes a rotating seat and an elastic seat. The rotating seat has an inner groove, and the elastic seat is fixed in the inner groove. The elastic seat has an elastic fixing groove. The outer periphery of the rotating seat is connected to the driving component for transmission. The rotating connector achieves transmission connection with the driving component through the rotating seat, and achieves fixed connection with the contact plate through the elastic seat, so as to realize the rotation of the rotating seat, thereby driving the elastic seat and the contact plate to rotate.

[0009] Specifically, the elastic seat is made of silicone material, and the inner wall of the inner groove is provided with several positioning recesses. The outer wall of the elastic seat is provided with positioning protrusions corresponding to the positioning recesses, and the positioning protrusions extend into the positioning recesses. The cooperation between the positioning protrusions and the positioning recesses plays a good positioning role in the installation of the elastic seat on the inner groove, which facilitates the installation of the elastic seat on the rotating seat. At the same time, the elastic seat made of silicone material is easy to obtain and has good elasticity.

[0010] Furthermore, it also includes an elastic fixing cover, the lower part of which is provided with a barb, and the bottom of the inner groove has a through hook hole. The lower end of the barb passes through the bottom wall of the elastic fixing groove and is engaged with the through hook hole; so that the elastic seat is well fixed by the elastic fixing cover on the inner groove of the rotating seat.

[0011] Specifically, the drive assembly includes a motor and a housing on the upper part of the motor. The upper end of the motor's output shaft extends into the housing and is connected to a transmission gear set, with one end of the transmission gear set extending out of the housing. The outer periphery of the rotating seat is provided with transmission teeth, which are connected to one end of the transmission gear set. This allows the rotating seat to be stably driven to rotate by the drive assembly, thereby achieving stable rotation of the elastic seat and the contact plate.

[0012] Specifically, the interface seat includes a first seat and a second seat. The lower front part of the main unit is provided with a receiving groove. The second seat is movably disposed on the receiving groove. The rear part of the first seat is movably disposed on the second seat. The rotating connector and the drive assembly are both fixed in the first seat. The first seat has a clearance opening corresponding to the position of the elastic fixing groove. The receiving groove constitutes the receiving part. When the interface seat with two seats is pulled out for use, it can obtain a longer working space, which can meet the use needs of larger volume interface plates and has a wide range of applications. At the same time, when stored, the rear part of the first seat can also be stored in the second seat, so that the overall storage length is shorter, avoiding the length of the receiving groove being too long and reducing the manufacturing difficulty of the concave channel. Furthermore, the clearance opening ensures that the first seat does not affect the installation fit between the lower end of the interface plate and the elastic fixing groove.

[0013] Specifically, the first seat includes a bottom shell and a top cover that are interlocked. The rotating connector and the drive assembly are both fixed on the bottom shell. The top cover has the clearance opening. The two outer rear walls of the bottom shell are provided with limiting grooves. The second seat is a hollow seat with limiting blocks on the two inner side walls. The hollow seat is fitted onto the outer rear of the first seat, and the limiting blocks extend into the limiting grooves. Through the cooperation of the limiting blocks and the limiting grooves, the sliding of the rear of the first seat within the second seat is well guided and limited, achieving stable sliding between the two. At the same time, the first seat can also drive the second seat to move through the cooperation of the limiting blocks and the end faces of the limiting grooves, which has a good implementation effect. Furthermore, the structure of the first seat, composed of the bottom shell and the top cover, is simple and also facilitates the installation and fixation of the rotating connector and the drive assembly on the first seat.

[0014] Specifically, slide rails are provided on both sides of the accommodating groove, and protrusions extend outward from the two outer sidewalls of one end of the hollow seat body. The protrusions extend into the corresponding slide rails, and the limiting blocks are provided on the two inner sidewalls of the other end of the hollow seat body. Through the cooperation of the protrusions and the slide rails, the sliding of the second seat body in the accommodating groove plays a good guiding and limiting role, realizing stable sliding between the two.

[0015] The beneficial effects of this invention are as follows: (1) The rotating noodle receiving structure of this noodle machine drives the rotating connector to rotate, which in turn drives the noodle receiving plate to rotate, so that the noodles discharged from the noodle outlet are evenly spread on the noodle receiving plate, which can effectively reduce the noodles from sticking together and improve the quality of the noodles. In addition, the noodle receiving base can be moved and stored in the main unit's housing when not in use, reducing the overall size of the noodle machine and facilitating product packaging and transportation.

[0016] (2) The rotating connector is connected to the drive assembly through the rotating seat, and the rotating connector is fixedly connected to the contact plate through the elastic seat, so that the rotating seat rotates and drives the elastic seat and the contact plate to rotate.

[0017] (3) When the two seats are pulled out, the contact seat can obtain a longer working space, which can meet the use needs of larger volume contact plates and has a wide range of applications. At the same time, when stored, the rear part of the first seat can also be stored in the second seat, which makes the overall storage length shorter, avoids the length of the accommodating groove being too long, reduces the manufacturing difficulty of the concave channel, and furthermore, the clearance opening ensures that the first seat does not affect the installation fit between the lower end of the contact plate and the elastic fixing groove.
