Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of food production technology, and in particular to a food production conveying device. Background Technology

[0002] Food processing is an industry that uses agricultural, forestry, animal husbandry, and fishery products as raw materials to carry out activities such as grain milling, feed processing, vegetable oil and sugar processing, slaughtering and meat processing, aquatic product processing, and food processing of vegetables, fruits, and nuts. It falls under the broad category of agricultural product processing. Pastry is one of the more common processed food categories.

[0003] For example, a pastry food processing equipment with publication (announcement) number CN116439265A, specifically related to the pastry making field, includes a base and a motor. The motor is mounted on the base, and a drive mechanism is provided on one side of the base. A push plate mechanism is provided on one side of the drive mechanism, an extrusion mechanism is provided on one side of the push plate mechanism, and a flattening mechanism is provided on one side of the extrusion mechanism. By turning on the motor, the motor controls the drive mechanism to operate. The drive mechanism drives the push plate mechanism to work, sending the mold under the extrusion mechanism. The extrusion mechanism extrudes the prepared batter into the mold. Then, the flattening mechanism presses the dough firmly into the mold. Finally, the user puts the mold into the oven.

[0004] In summary, the existing technology has the following technical problems: When the existing technology is used to process and transport pastry pieces, it lacks the ability to transport the pastries. Since freshly processed pastries have a high moisture content, they are easy to stick to the hands when placed directly on the baking tray. Therefore, we propose a food production conveying device. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a food production and conveying device to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0006] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0007] A food production conveying device, comprising:

[0008] A machine base, with a feeding conveyor belt installed above the machine base;

[0009] A conveying mechanism, located on top of the machine base, is used to convey the pastries discharged from the feeding conveyor belt;

[0010] A primary processing unit, located inside the conveying mechanism, is used for primary drying of the pastries.

[0011] Preferably, the conveying mechanism includes a first U-shaped bracket, a hollow frame, a guide bevel, and a material conveyor belt. Two first U-shaped brackets are fixed to the top of the machine base, two hollow frames are fixed between the two first U-shaped brackets, a material conveyor belt is arranged between the two hollow frames, and a guide bevel is fixed to the top of the two hollow frames, the guide bevel being located directly below the material conveyor belt.

[0012] Preferably, the primary processing mechanism includes an outer casing, a guide fan, and an electric heating wire. Multiple outer casings are evenly distributed and fixed on one side of the hollow frame, and the guide fan and electric heating wire are fixed on the inner side of the outer casing.

[0013] Preferably, filter plates are slidably connected to the inner side of the hollow frame.

[0014] Preferably, multiple grid slots are evenly distributed on the side of each of the two hollow frames that are close to each other.

[0015] Preferably, two second U-shaped supports are fixed at the top of the machine base and at a position offset from the first U-shaped support. A rectangular frame is fixed at the top of the two second U-shaped supports, and an interval guiding mechanism is assembled between the rectangular frame and the second U-shaped supports.

[0016] Preferably, the spaced material guiding mechanism includes a driving component and a transmission component, the driving component is mounted on the inner side of the second U-shaped bracket, and the transmission component is mounted between the driving component and the rectangular frame.

[0017] Preferably, the drive assembly includes pulleys, a belt, a motor, a shaft, a rotating arm, a force-applying arm, a straight section, a mounting block, a swing arm, and a positioning shaft. Each of the second U-shaped brackets has pulleys mounted on its inner side, and the two pulleys are connected by a belt. One end of one of the second U-shaped brackets is fixed to a motor, and the output end of the motor is fixed to the inner side of one of the pulleys and also to a rotating arm. The inner side of the other pulley is fixed to a shaft, which is rotatably connected to one of the second U-shaped brackets. One end of the shaft is also fixed to a rotating arm. One end of each rotating arm is fixed to an inner shaft, and the outer side of each inner shaft is rotatably connected to a force-applying arm. One end of each force-applying arm is integrally fixed to a straight section, and one end of each straight section is rotatably connected to a swing arm. One end of each swing arm is fixed to a positioning shaft, and one end of each positioning shaft is rotatably connected to a mounting block. The mounting blocks are all fixed to a rectangular frame.

[0018] Preferably, the transmission assembly includes a conveyor plate, actuating teeth, a strip guide groove, a support plate, a baking tray, a guide slider, and a linkage guide rod. A conveyor plate is rotatably connected to the end of each of the two straight sections away from the swing arm. Multiple actuating teeth are evenly distributed and fixed on the top of the conveyor plate. Strip guide grooves are provided at both ends of the top of the rectangular frame. Multiple support plates are evenly distributed on the top of the rectangular frame. One side of each support plate is in contact with the actuating teeth. A baking tray is fixed to the top of each support plate. Guide sliders are fixed to both ends of the bottom of each support plate. The guide sliders are slidably connected to the strip guide groove. A linkage guide rod is rotatably connected to one end of each of the two inner shafts.

[0019] When the pastries processed on the feeding conveyor belt fall onto the conveyor belt along the guide slope, the guide fan and electric heating wire are then activated, so that hot air is blown onto the pastries through the hollow frame, causing the moisture on the outer and upper surfaces of the pastries to evaporate and form a dry skin. Then, the operator picks up the pastries at one end of the conveyor belt, without touching the bottom of the pastries, and inverts them and arranges them evenly in the baking tray with the dry skin facing down so that the pastries do not stick to the baking tray. The baking tray is then placed on the rectangular frame, and the guide slider is connected to the strip guide groove for further conveying.

[0021] Meanwhile, through the above technical solutions, the present invention has at least the following beneficial effects:

[0022] 1. Through the structural design of the conveying mechanism and the primary processing mechanism, this invention facilitates the primary drying of high-moisture pastries during the conveying process, thereby reducing the surface moisture content and forming a slightly dry skin. After drying, the pastries will no longer stick to hands or mechanical parts when handled and placed, achieving a balance between preventing sticking and maintaining the soft texture inside.

[0023] 2. Through the structural design of the interval feeding mechanism, this invention allows the operator time to spare during the continuous feeding of pastries, making it easier to place the pastries in the baking tray in an orderly manner, which is beneficial to use.

[0034] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this invention clearer, the invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative and not intended to limit the invention.

[0035] Example 1

[0036] Reference Figure 1-3 A food production conveying device, comprising:

[0037] A base 1 is provided, and a feeding conveyor belt 2 is provided above the base 1;

[0038] The conveying mechanism, located on the top of the base 1, is used to convey the pastries from the feed conveyor belt 2.

[0039] The primary processing unit, located inside the conveying mechanism, is used for the primary drying of pastries.

[0040] The conveying mechanism includes a first U-shaped support 3, a hollow frame 4, a guide bevel 5, and a material conveyor belt 6. Two first U-shaped supports 3 are fixed on the top of the base 1, two hollow frames 4 are fixed between the two first U-shaped supports 3, and a material conveyor belt 6 is arranged between the two hollow frames 4. A guide bevel 5 is fixed on the top of the two hollow frames 4. The guide bevel 5 is located directly below the unloading conveyor belt 2. In the prior art, after the pastry is processed and shaped, it is conveyed by the unloading conveyor belt 2. The unloading conveyor belt 2 continuously drops pastries from one end, forming a feeding process.

[0041] The primary processing unit includes an outer casing 7, a guide fan 9, and an electric heating wire 10. Multiple outer casings 7 are evenly distributed and fixed on one side of the perforated frame 4. The guide fan 9 and the electric heating wire 10 are fixed on the inner side of the outer casing 7. When the guide fan 9 and the electric heating wire 10 are activated, hot air is blown onto the pastry through the perforated frame 4, causing the moisture on the outer and upper surfaces of the pastry to evaporate and form a dry skin, preventing the pastry from sticking to the operator's hands when handling it later.

[0042] The inner side of the hollow frame 4 is slidably connected with a filter plate 8. The filter plate 8 prevents impurities from the outside air from entering the hollow frame 4 and prevents impurities from being blown into the pastry.

[0043] Multiple grid slots are evenly distributed on the side of the two hollow frames 4 that are close to each other. The grid slots facilitate the blowing of hot air onto the pastries on the conveyor belt 6, which helps to quickly evaporate the moisture.

[0044] Example 2

[0045] Further optimizations to Example 1, specifically, such as... Figure 4-7 As shown, two second U-shaped supports 11 are fixed at the top of the base 1 and at a position offset from the first U-shaped support 3. A rectangular frame 24 is fixed at the top of the two second U-shaped supports 11, and an interval guiding mechanism is assembled between the rectangular frame 24 and the second U-shaped supports 11.

[0046] The spaced material guiding mechanism includes a drive assembly and a transmission assembly. The drive assembly is mounted on the inner side of the second U-shaped bracket 11, and the transmission assembly is mounted between the drive assembly and the rectangular frame 24. The drive assembly includes pulleys 12, belts 13, motors 14, shafts 15, rotating arms 16, force-applying arms 17, straight sections 18, mounting blocks 19, swing arms 20, and positioning shafts 21. Pulleys 12 are mounted on the inner side of each second U-shaped bracket 11, and the two pulleys 12 are connected by belts 13. One end of one of the second U-shaped brackets 11 is fixed to a motor 14. The output end of the motor 14 is fixed to the inner side of one of the pulleys 12 and also to the rotating arm 16. The inner side of the other pulley 12 is fixed to... A shaft 15 is fixed, and the shaft 15 is rotatably connected to one of the second U-shaped brackets 11. A rotating arm 16 is also fixed to one end of the shaft 15. An inner shaft is fixed to one end of each rotating arm 16. A force-applying arm 17 is rotatably connected to the outer side of each inner shaft. A straight part 18 is integrally fixed to one end of each force-applying arm 17. A swing arm 20 is rotatably connected to one end of each straight part 18. A positioning shaft 21 is fixed to one end of each swing arm 20. A mounting block 19 is rotatably connected to one end of each positioning shaft 21. The mounting blocks 19 are all fixed to the rectangular frame 24.The transmission assembly includes a conveyor plate 22, actuating teeth 23, a strip guide groove 25, a support plate 26, a baking tray 27, a guide slider 28, and a linkage guide rod 29. A conveyor plate 22 is rotatably connected to one end of each of the two straight sections 18 away from the swing arm 20. Multiple actuating teeth 23 are evenly distributed and fixed on the top of the conveyor plate 22. Strip guide grooves 25 are opened at both ends of the top of the rectangular frame 24. Multiple support plates 26 are evenly distributed on the top of the rectangular frame 24. One side of each support plate 26 is in contact with the actuating teeth 23. A baking tray 27 is fixed to the top of each support plate 26. Guide sliders 28 are fixed to both ends of the bottom of each support plate 26 and are slidably connected to the strip guide groove 25. A linkage guide rod 29 is rotatably connected to one end of each of the two inner shafts. When the motor 14 starts, the output end of the motor 14 drives one of the pulleys 12 to rotate, thereby causing the two pulleys 12 to rotate synchronously. When the pulleys 12 rotate, they enable the two rotating arms to rotate. The rotating arm 16 rotates synchronously because it is rotatably connected to the force-applying arm 17, which is fixed to the straight part 18. The straight part 18 is rotatably connected to the swing arm 20 and the conveyor plate 22. Therefore, the force-applying arm 17, the conveyor plate 22, and the linkage guide rod 29 form a parallelogram structure. When the rotating arm 16 rotates, the force-applying arm 17 can push or pull the conveyor plate 22 to move laterally. At the same time, the conveyor plate 22 drives the actuating tooth 23 to move up or down a certain distance. Under the limiting guidance of the swing arm 20 and the positioning shaft 21, the force-applying arm 17, the conveyor plate 22, and the linkage guide rod 29 move periodically. This allows the actuating tooth 23 to continuously actuate the bearing support plate 26, causing the baking tray 27 to be continuously actuated and moved, achieving intermittent feeding. This allows the operator enough time to place the pastries in the baking tray 27, making it easier to place the pastries in the baking tray 27 in an orderly manner and avoiding a chaotic placement situation.

[0047] In summary:

[0048] This invention addresses the technical problem of existing technologies lacking proper conveying of pastries during processing and transport. Because freshly formed pastries have a high moisture content, direct placement onto the baking tray by hand can easily cause sticking. The invention employs the technical solutions described in the above embodiments. Furthermore, the implementation process of the above technical solutions is as follows:

[0049] All electrical components in this device are existing technologies, and their models are only one of them. Any electrical component that can achieve the purpose of this device can be used. Connect all electrical components in the device to their compatible power supply through wires. In addition, a suitable controller should be selected according to the actual situation to meet the control requirements. The specific connection and control sequence should refer to the working principle below, and the electrical connection between each electrical component should be completed in the order of operation. The detailed connection method is a well-known technology in this field. The following mainly introduces the working principle and process, and will not explain the electrical control.

[0050] Move the device to the designated area and then connect it to an external power source. When the pastries processed on the feeding conveyor belt 2 fall onto the conveyor belt 6 along the guide bevel 5, start the guide fan 9 and the electric heating wire 10 to blow hot air through the hollow frame 4 onto the pastries, causing the moisture on the outer and upper surfaces of the pastries to evaporate and form a dry skin. Then, the operator picks up the pastries at one end of the conveyor belt 6 without touching the bottom of the pastries, inverts them, and evenly places them in the baking tray 27 with the dry skin facing down so that the pastries do not stick to the baking tray 27. Then, place the baking tray 27 on the rectangular frame 24 and connect the guide slider 28 to the strip guide groove 25 for further conveying.

[0051] With the above-mentioned settings, this application will certainly solve the above-mentioned technical problems, and at the same time achieve the following technical effects:

[0052] 1. Through the structural design of the conveying mechanism and the primary processing mechanism, this invention facilitates the primary drying of high-moisture pastries during the conveying process, thereby reducing the surface moisture content and forming a slightly dry skin. After drying, the pastries will no longer stick to hands or mechanical parts when handled and placed, achieving a balance between preventing sticking and maintaining the soft texture inside.

[0053] 2. Through the structural design of the interval feeding mechanism, this invention allows the operator time to spare during the continuous feeding of pastries, making it easier to place the pastries in the baking tray 27 in an orderly manner, which is beneficial to use.
