Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of food processing technology, specifically to a food processing equipment and its processing method. Background Technology

[0002] Bread is a food made by grinding grains and heating them. Wheat flour is the main ingredient, with yeast, eggs, oil, nuts, etc. as auxiliary ingredients. Water is added to form dough, which is then processed through fermentation, shaping, baking, and cooling. Bread processing equipment is an essential piece of equipment in the bread production process. With social development, people's demands for food are getting higher and higher, and various pastry products have appeared on the market. Pastry making is no longer solely done by hand, and various pastry machines have emerged.

[0003] Existing food processing equipment requires manual placement of kneaded dough onto a dough press for extrusion. During this process, manual monitoring of the dough is necessary from one side of the press, which is inconvenient and increases the workload for workers. Furthermore, cutting the dough requires manual operation, which is also cumbersome, reduces work efficiency, and decreases production volume, resulting in several negative impacts. Currently, no solutions have been proposed to address these technical issues. Summary of the Invention

[0004] In response to the problems in related technologies, this invention proposes a food processing equipment and its processing method to overcome the aforementioned technical problems existing in the prior art. The purpose of this invention is to effectively solve the problem of uneven extrusion of dough during traditional extrusion, reduce manual operation, achieve automation, facilitate installation and disassembly, facilitate cleaning of the dough pressing shaft, and cut the dough, thereby improving work efficiency and increasing product production.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: a food processing device, comprising a base, with grooves on both sides of the top of the base, a spring disposed inside the groove, a sliding block disposed on one side of the spring, and both ends of the spring being fixedly connected to the groove and the sliding block respectively, a movable plate disposed above the groove, a drive motor mounted on one side of one of the movable plates, a pressing shaft disposed between two movable plates, two pressing shafts disposed and arranged horizontally parallel, a locking block disposed on the opposite side of each of the two movable plates, a locking groove matching the locking block being disposed on both sides of the pressing shaft, the output end of the drive motor being fixedly connected to one side of one of the locking blocks, and a cutting mechanism disposed on one side of the movable plate.

[0006] Preferably, the cutting mechanism includes a support frame, an electric push rod, and a cutting tool. The support frame is fixedly mounted on the base, the electric push rod is mounted on the support frame, and the top of the cutting tool is connected to the output end of the electric push rod.

[0007] Preferably, the support frame has sliding grooves on both sides, and a moving block is provided inside the sliding groove. The two ends of the cutting tool are respectively connected to the two moving blocks.

[0008] Preferably, the card block includes a frustum and a cross block, with the cross block disposed on one side of the frustum.

[0009] A processing method based on the above-described food processing equipment includes the following steps:

[0010] Step 1: Place the dough to be processed between the two pressing shafts, start the drive motor to drive one of the clamping blocks to rotate. Since the clamping block matches the groove on the pressing shaft, the drive motor drives one of the pressing shafts to rotate when it is working. Since the two pressing shafts are set opposite to each other, the rotation of one pressing shaft drives the other pressing shaft to rotate, thereby extruding the dough and making the dough into a sheet shape.

[0011] Step 2: Place the sheet-like dough from Step 1 onto the cutting mechanism to cut it to the required length, and start the electric push rod to move the cutting blade to cut the sheet-like dough.

[0012] Step 3: When the cutting tool in Step 2 moves, it drives the moving block to move inside the sliding groove, ensuring the stability of the cutting tool.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0014] This invention relates to a food processing equipment and method. A drive motor rotates a clamping block, which matches a slot on a dough pressing shaft. The two pressing shafts are positioned opposite each other, so their rotation drives the other shaft, thus extruding the dough. This effectively solves the problem of uneven dough extrusion in traditional methods, reduces manual operation, automates the process, and facilitates installation, disassembly, and cleaning of the pressing shafts. A cutting mechanism is incorporated, with an electric push rod moving a cutting blade to cut the sheet-like dough. A support frame supports the electric push rod and cutting blade, improving work efficiency and increasing production volume. Attached Figure Description

[0017] The technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention.

[0018] Example 1

[0019] Please see Figure 1 This invention proposes a technical solution for a food processing device and its processing method: The food processing device includes a base 1, specifically, the base 1 has a rectangular structure to effectively improve stability; grooves are provided on both sides of the top of the base 1, specifically, the grooves have a square structure; a spring 2 is installed inside the groove, and a sliding block 3 is installed on one side of the spring 2; the two ends of the spring 2 are fixedly connected to the groove and the sliding block 3 respectively; a movable plate 4 is installed above the groove; specifically, by setting the spring 2 and the sliding block 3, the movable plate 4 can be moved easily, enabling the installation and disassembly of the pressing shaft 6; a drive motor 5 is installed on one side of one movable plate 4, and two pressing shafts 6 are arranged between the two movable plates 4. Furthermore, the two moving plates 4 are arranged horizontally and parallel to each other, with a locking block 7 on one side of each opposite side. The pressing shaft 6 has slots 8 on both sides that match the locking blocks 7. The output end of the drive motor 5 is fixedly connected to one side of a locking block 7. Specifically, when the drive motor 5 is started, it drives one locking block 7 to rotate. Since the locking block 7 matches the slots 8 on the pressing shaft 6, the drive motor 5 drives one pressing shaft 6 to rotate when it is working. Since the two pressing shafts 6 are arranged opposite each other, when one pressing shaft 6 rotates, it drives the other pressing shaft 6 to rotate, thereby extruding the dough. A cutting mechanism is provided on one side of the moving plate 4. Specifically, the cutting mechanism can cut the dough before or after extrusion, reducing manual operation and increasing production.

[0020] Please see Figure 1 As shown, the cutting mechanism further includes a support frame 9, an electric push rod 10, and a cutting tool 11. The support frame 9 is fixedly installed on the base 1, the electric push rod 10 is installed on the support frame 9, and the top of the cutting tool 11 is connected to the output end of the electric push rod 10.

[0021] In this embodiment, the electric push rod 10 is activated to drive the cutting tool 11 to move, thereby cutting the sheet-shaped dough. The support frame 9 serves to support the electric push rod 10 and the cutting tool 11.

[0022] Please see Figure 1 As shown, furthermore, sliding grooves are provided on both sides of the support frame 9, and moving blocks 12 are provided inside the sliding grooves. The two ends of the cutting tool 11 are respectively connected to the two moving blocks 12.

[0023] In this embodiment, when the cutting tool 11 moves under the action of the electric push rod 10, it can drive the moving block 12 to move in the sliding groove.

[0024] Please see Figure 1 As shown, further, the card block 7 includes a frustum and a cross block, with the cross block located on one side of the frustum.

[0025] In this embodiment, it is convenient to install and remove the pressing shaft 6.

[0026] A processing method based on the above-mentioned food processing equipment includes the following steps:

[0027] Step 1: Place the dough to be processed between the two pressing shafts 6, start the drive motor 5 to drive a clamping block 7 to rotate. Since the clamping block 7 matches the clamping groove 8 on the pressing shaft 6, the drive motor 5 drives one pressing shaft 6 to rotate when it is working. Since the two pressing shafts 6 are set opposite each other, the rotation of one pressing shaft 6 drives the other pressing shaft 6 to rotate, thereby extruding the dough and making the dough into a sheet shape.

[0028] Step 2: Place the sheet-like dough from Step 1 into the cutting mechanism to cut it into the required length. Start the electric push rod 10 to drive the cutting blade 11 to move and cut the sheet-like dough.

[0029] Step 3: When the cutting tool 11 in step 2 moves, it drives the moving block 12 to move inside the sliding groove to ensure the stability of the cutting tool 11.
