Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of candy manufacturing, in particular to a rounding mechanism and a rounding machine. Background Art

[0002] Traditional rounding machines often have problems with adhesion or clogging during the rounding process, which not only affects the rounding effect, but also reduces production efficiency. More importantly, the stability of product quality is difficult to guarantee, which has an adverse impact on the production process and product quality. Therefore, we urgently need to improve and optimize this to improve the performance and stability of the rounding machine. Utility Model Content

[0003] In view of this, the utility model provides a rounding mechanism and a rounding machine, which adopt a cooperative working mode of a first rounding roller and a second rounding roller, and the rotation directions of the two are opposite, so that the material is subjected to uniform and effective pressure during the rounding process, and is equipped with a staggered driving mechanism, which can drive the first rounding roller and the second rounding roller to move in a staggered manner, so as to quickly and accurately achieve the expected rounding effect. The precise control of the material not only improves the production efficiency, but also ensures the stability of product quality. The staggered movement working mode can also effectively prevent the material from sticking or clogging during the rounding process, thereby improving the operating stability and reliability of the equipment.

[0004] The purpose of the utility model is achieved through the following technical solutions:

[0005] A rounding mechanism comprises a first rounding roller, a first rotating motor driving the first rounding roller to rotate, a second rounding roller cooperating with the first rounding roller and rotating in a direction opposite to that of the first rounding roller, a second rotating motor driving the second rounding roller to rotate, and an interlaced driving mechanism driving the first rounding roller and the second rounding roller to move in an interlaced manner, wherein a first rounding groove with a semicircular cross-section is dug on the surface of the first rounding roller, and a second rounding groove with a semicircular cross-section is dug on the surface of the second rounding roller.

[0006] The first rolling roller and the second rolling roller are used in a coordinated working mode, and the rotation directions of the two rollers are opposite, so that the material is subjected to uniform and effective pressure during the rolling process, and is equipped with a staggered drive mechanism, which can drive the first rolling roller and the second rolling roller to move staggered, so as to quickly and accurately achieve the expected rolling effect. The precise control of the material not only improves the production efficiency, but also ensures the stability of product quality. The staggered movement working mode can also effectively prevent the material from sticking or clogging during the rolling process, and improves the operation stability and reliability of the equipment. The surfaces of the first rolling roller and the second rolling roller are respectively dug with a first rolling groove and a second rolling groove with a semicircular cross-section, which can better fix and shape the material during the rolling process, avoiding the displacement or deformation of the material during the rolling process. The semicircular groove design can also effectively reduce the wear of the material during the rolling process and extend the service life of the equipment. In addition, the rounding mechanism also adopts a method in which the first rotating motor and the second rotating motor respectively drive the first rounding roller and the second rounding roller. This independent drive design allows the rotational speed of the two rounding rollers to be adjusted independently, so that the rounding speed and strength can be flexibly adjusted according to the characteristics of the material and the rounding requirements, further improving the rounding accuracy and efficiency.

[0007] Preferably, the staggered drive mechanism includes a staggered drive motor, a staggered drive roller driven to rotate by the staggered drive motor, a staggered drive bar 1 and a staggered drive bar 2 located on both sides of the staggered drive roller and meshing with the staggered drive roller, a first limit portion for limiting the moving direction of the staggered drive bar 1, and a second limit portion for limiting the moving direction of the staggered drive bar 2, the first rotating motor is installed on the staggered drive bar 1 and moves synchronously with the staggered drive bar 1, and the second rotating motor is installed on the staggered drive bar 2 and moves synchronously with the staggered drive bar 2.

[0008] The staggered drive mechanism is designed in an ingenious and efficient way. The staggered drive motor drives the staggered drive roller to rotate, so that the staggered drive strips 1 and 2 meshing with it can move synchronously and staggeredly, which not only realizes the staggered motion of the rounding rollers, but also ensures the stability and accuracy of the motion. Since the staggered drive motor can be controlled independently, the moving speed and direction of the rounding rollers can be adjusted according to actual production needs, thereby meeting the requirements of different rounding processes.

[0009] Preferably, the moving direction of the first interlaced driving bar and the moving direction of the second interlaced driving bar are parallel to each other.

[0010] The moving directions of the staggered drive strip 1 and the staggered drive strip 2 are parallel to each other, so that the rounding rollers can maintain a stable spacing and relative position when they move in a staggered manner, thereby ensuring the continuity and stability of the rounding process. The parallel moving directions also simplify the structure of the mechanism, reduce the probability of failure, and improve the reliability of the equipment.

[0011] Preferably, the first limiting portion includes a first limiting upper portion and a first limiting lower portion, a first gap is left between the first limiting upper portion and the first limiting lower portion, and the staggered driving strip is placed in the first gap and can move along the first gap.

[0012] The first limiter and the second limiter effectively limit the moving direction of the staggered drive strip 1 and the staggered drive strip 2, preventing them from shifting or misaligning during movement, which not only ensures the correct position of the rounding roller, but also avoids the rounding quality problem caused by position deviation. The structural design of the limiter also takes into account the convenience of equipment maintenance and overhaul, so that operators can easily maintain and service the equipment.

[0013] Preferably, a first avoidance area is reserved on the left side of the upper portion of the first limit.

[0014] The design of the first avoidance zone added on the left side of the upper part of the first limit is quite ingenious. The setting of the avoidance zone not only provides additional space for the staggered drive strip 1 during movement, but also prevents collision or jamming caused by operating errors or mechanical vibrations, ensuring the smooth movement of the rounding roller. The avoidance zone also makes the entire mechanism more convenient to maintain. Maintenance personnel can easily inspect and repair the staggered drive strip 1 without disassembling other components, greatly improving the maintainability of the equipment.

[0015] Preferably, the second limiting portion includes a second limiting upper portion and a second limiting lower portion, a second gap is left between the second limiting upper portion and the second limiting lower portion, and the second staggered driving strip is placed in the second gap and can move along the second gap.

[0016] The ingenious design of the second limiter ensures the stable movement of the staggered drive strip 2. The second gap left between the second limiter upper part and the second limiter lower part provides a precise moving track for the staggered drive strip 2, which not only ensures the stability of the rounding roller during movement, but also makes the entire rounding process more precise and controllable. The precise control of the second gap also avoids the problem of poor movement or reduced accuracy caused by too large or too small a gap, thereby ensuring the stability and consistency of the rounding quality.

[0017] Preferably, a second avoidance area is reserved on the left side of the lower portion of the second limit.

[0018] The second avoidance zone left on the left side of the lower part of the second limiter further enhances the flexibility and maintainability of the ball rolling mechanism. The existence of the avoidance zone provides additional space for the movement of the staggered drive bar 2, preventing collision or jamming caused by operating errors or mechanical vibrations, which not only improves the operating stability of the equipment, but also reduces the probability of failure. The avoidance zone also makes the maintenance of the equipment more convenient. Maintenance personnel can easily inspect and repair the staggered drive bar 2 without disassembling other components, thereby improving the maintainability and service life of the equipment.

[0019] Preferably, the cross-sectional circular diameter of the first rounding groove is equal to the cross-sectional circular diameter of the second rounding groove.

[0020] The design that the cross-sectional circular diameter of the first rolling groove is equal to the cross-sectional circular diameter of the second rolling groove ensures that the material is subjected to uniform force during the rolling process. When the material is placed between the two rolling rollers, since the diameters of the two rolling grooves are the same, the force in all directions of the material when subjected to the pressure of the rolling rollers is relatively balanced, which can not only reduce the deformation and damage of the material during the rolling process, but also improve the precision and consistency of the rolling. Therefore, this design is crucial to ensure the quality of the rolling.

[0021] A rounding machine comprises the rounding mechanism.

[0022] Applying this rounding mechanism to the rounding machine further improves the overall performance of the rounding machine. As a device specially used for rounding materials, the performance of the rounding machine directly affects the production efficiency and product quality. Since the rounding mechanism has many advantages mentioned above, the rounding machine equipped with this rounding mechanism must also have the characteristics of high efficiency, stability and reliability. This rounding machine can not only improve production efficiency and reduce production costs, but also ensure the stability and consistency of product quality, creating greater value for the enterprise.

[0023] Compared with the prior art, the utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0024] The rounding mechanism of the utility model adopts the cooperative working mode of the first rounding roller and the second rounding roller, and the rotation directions of the two are opposite, so that the material is subjected to uniform and effective pressure during the rounding process, and is equipped with a staggered driving mechanism, which can drive the first rounding roller and the second rounding roller to move staggered, so as to quickly and accurately achieve the expected rounding effect. The precise control of the material not only improves the production efficiency, but also ensures the stability of product quality. The staggered movement working mode can also effectively prevent the material from sticking or clogging during the rounding process, thereby improving the operation stability and reliability of the equipment. The surfaces of the first rounding roller and the second rounding roller are respectively dug with the first rounding groove and the second rounding groove with a semicircular cross-section, which can better fix and shape the material during the rounding process, avoiding the displacement or deformation of the material during the rounding process. The semicircular groove design can also effectively reduce the wear of the material during the rounding process and extend the service life of the equipment. In addition, the rounding mechanism also adopts a method in which the first rotating motor and the second rotating motor respectively drive the first rounding roller and the second rounding roller. This independent drive design allows the rotational speed of the two rounding rollers to be adjusted independently, so that the rounding speed and strength can be flexibly adjusted according to the characteristics of the material and the rounding requirements, further improving the rounding accuracy and efficiency.

[0031] It should be noted that, in the absence of conflict, the embodiments and features in the embodiments of the present application may be combined with each other.

[0032] The technical solution in this application will be described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0033] The present embodiment provides a rounding mechanism, including a first rounding roller 10, a first rotating motor 20 driving the first rounding roller 10 to rotate, a second rounding roller 30 cooperating with the first rounding roller 10 and rotating in the opposite direction to the first rounding roller 10, a second rotating motor 40 driving the second rounding roller 30 to rotate, and an interlaced driving mechanism 50 driving the first rounding roller 10 and the second rounding roller 30 to move in an interlaced manner. A first rounding groove 11 with a semicircular cross-section is dug on the surface of the first rounding roller 10, and a second rounding groove 31 with a semicircular cross-section is dug on the surface of the second rounding roller 30.

[0034] The first rolling roller 10 and the second rolling roller 30 are used in a coordinated working mode, and the rotation directions of the two are opposite, so that the material is subjected to uniform and effective pressure during the rolling process, and an interlaced driving mechanism 50 is provided, which can drive the first rolling roller 10 and the second rolling roller 30 to move in an interlaced manner, so that the expected rolling effect can be achieved quickly and accurately. The precise control of the material not only improves the production efficiency, but also ensures the stability of product quality. The interlaced movement working mode can also effectively prevent the material from sticking or clogging during the rolling process, thereby improving the operating stability and reliability of the equipment. The surfaces of the first rolling roller 10 and the second rolling roller 30 are respectively dug with a first rolling groove 11 and a second rolling groove 31 with a semicircular cross-section, which can better fix and shape the material during the rolling process, avoiding the displacement or deformation of the material during the rolling process. The semicircular groove design can also effectively reduce the wear of the material during the rolling process, thereby extending the service life of the equipment. In addition, the rounding mechanism also adopts a first rotating motor 20 and a second rotating motor 40 to drive the first rounding roller 10 and the second rounding roller 30 respectively. This independent drive design allows the rotational speed of the two rounding rollers to be adjusted independently, so that the rounding speed and strength can be flexibly adjusted according to the characteristics of the material and the rounding requirements, further improving the rounding accuracy and efficiency.

[0035] In this embodiment, the staggered drive mechanism 50 includes a staggered drive motor, a staggered drive roller 51 driven to rotate by the staggered drive motor, a staggered drive bar 1 52 and a staggered drive bar 2 53 located on both sides of the staggered drive roller 51 and meshing with the staggered drive roller 51, a first limit portion 54 for limiting the moving direction of the staggered drive bar 1 52, and a second limit portion 55 for limiting the moving direction of the staggered drive bar 2 53. The first rotating motor 20 is installed on the staggered drive bar 1 52 and moves synchronously with the staggered drive bar 1 52, and the second rotating motor 40 is installed on the staggered drive bar 2 53 and moves synchronously with the staggered drive bar 2 53.

[0036] The design of the staggered drive mechanism 50 is ingenious and efficient. The staggered drive motor drives the staggered drive roller 51 to rotate, so that the staggered drive strip 1 52 and the staggered drive strip 2 53 meshing therewith can move synchronously and staggeredly, which not only realizes the staggered motion of the rounding rollers, but also ensures the stability and accuracy of the motion. Since the staggered drive motor can be controlled independently, the moving speed and direction of the rounding rollers can be adjusted according to actual production needs, thereby meeting the requirements of different rounding processes.

[0037] In this embodiment, the moving direction of the first staggered driving bar 52 and the moving direction of the second staggered driving bar 53 are parallel to each other.

[0038] The moving directions of the staggered driving strip 1 52 and the staggered driving strip 2 53 are parallel to each other, so that the rounding rollers can maintain a stable spacing and relative position when they move in a staggered manner, thereby ensuring the continuity and stability of the rounding process. The parallel moving directions also simplify the structure of the mechanism, reduce the probability of failure, and improve the reliability of the equipment.

[0039] In this embodiment, the first limiting portion 54 includes a first limiting upper portion 541 and a first limiting lower portion 542, a first gap is left between the first limiting upper portion 541 and the first limiting lower portion 542, and the staggered driving bar 1 52 is placed in the first gap and can move along the first gap.

[0040] The first limiting part 54 and the second limiting part 55 effectively limit the moving direction of the staggered driving strip 1 52 and the staggered driving strip 2 53, preventing them from being offset or misaligned during the movement, which not only ensures the correct position of the rounding roller, but also avoids the rounding quality problem caused by position deviation. The structural design of the limiting part also takes into account the convenience of maintenance and overhaul of the equipment, so that the operator can easily maintain and service the equipment.

[0041] In this embodiment, a first free space 543 is reserved on the left side of the first position-limiting upper portion 541 .

[0042] The design of the first avoidance zone 543 added to the left side of the first limit upper portion 541 is quite ingenious. The setting of the avoidance zone not only provides additional space for the staggered drive strip 1 52 during movement, but also prevents collision or jamming caused by operating errors or mechanical vibrations, thereby ensuring the smooth movement of the rubbing roller. The avoidance zone also makes the entire mechanism more convenient to maintain. Maintenance personnel can easily inspect and repair the staggered drive strip 1 52 without disassembling other components, greatly improving the maintainability of the equipment.

[0043] In this embodiment, the second limiting portion 55 includes a second limiting upper portion 551 and a second limiting lower portion 552 , a second gap is left between the second limiting upper portion 551 and the second limiting lower portion 552 , and the staggered driving bar 2 53 is placed in the second gap and can move along the second gap.

[0044] The ingenious design of the second limiter 55 ensures the stable movement of the staggered drive bar 2 53. The second gap left between the second limiter upper part 551 and the second limiter lower part 552 provides a precise moving track for the staggered drive bar 2 53, which not only ensures the stability of the ball rolling roller during movement, but also makes the entire ball rolling process more accurate and controllable. The precise control of the second gap also avoids the problem of poor movement or reduced accuracy caused by too large or too small a gap, thereby ensuring the stability and consistency of the ball rolling quality.

[0045] In this embodiment, a second clearance area 553 is reserved on the left side of the second position-limiting lower portion 552 .

[0046] The second avoidance area 553 left on the left side of the second limit lower part 552 further enhances the flexibility and maintainability of the ball rolling mechanism. The existence of the avoidance area provides additional space for the movement of the staggered drive bar 2 53, preventing collision or jamming caused by operating errors or mechanical vibrations, which not only improves the operating stability of the equipment, but also reduces the probability of failure. The avoidance area also makes the maintenance of the equipment more convenient. Maintenance personnel can easily inspect and repair the staggered drive bar 2 53 without disassembling other components, thereby improving the maintainability and service life of the equipment.

[0047] In this embodiment, the cross-sectional diameter of the first rounding groove 11 is equal to the cross-sectional diameter of the second rounding groove 31 .

[0048] The design that the cross-sectional circular diameter of the first rolling groove 11 is equal to the cross-sectional circular diameter of the second rolling groove 31 ensures that the material is subjected to uniform force during the rolling process. When the material is placed between the two rolling rollers, since the diameters of the two rolling grooves are the same, the force in all directions of the material when subjected to the pressure of the rolling rollers is relatively balanced, which can not only reduce the deformation and damage of the material during the rolling process, but also improve the precision and consistency of the rolling. Therefore, this design is crucial to ensure the quality of the rolling.

[0049] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations may be made to the embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, and that the scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
