[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of bread production equipment, in particular to a dough fermentation and conveying device used for bread production. Background Art

[0002] One of the steps in the bread production process is dough fermentation. The dough and yeast are first placed in a fermentation tank, and then the fermentation tank is pushed into a fermentation room for fermentation.

[0003] When bread needs to be mass-produced in factories, a large number of fermentation cylinders are needed. Workers need to push the fermentation cylinders into the fermentation room one by one, and also push the fermentation cylinders out of the fermentation room one by one after the dough has fermented. This not only takes a long distance to push the fermentation cylinders manually, but also has high labor intensity and low efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0004] In order to solve the technical problems in the background technology, the utility model discloses a dough fermentation and conveying device for bread production.

[0005] The utility model provides a dough fermentation conveying device for bread production, comprising a U-shaped channel, wherein the U-shaped channel is composed of an input channel, a transition channel and an output channel connected in sequence;

[0006] A push cylinder is installed in the input channel to drive the fermentation cylinder at the input channel inlet to move toward the input channel outlet;

[0007] A push cylinder is installed in the output channel to drive the fermentation cylinder at the output channel inlet to move toward the output channel outlet;

[0008] A push frame is installed in the transition channel, and a motor is installed outside the transition channel. The motor drives the push frame to move under the action of the transmission component to push the fermentation cylinder at the outlet of the input channel into the inlet of the output channel.

[0009] A fermentation cylinder containing dough to be fermented is placed at the entrance position of the input channel, and the push cylinder drives the fermentation cylinder to move toward the exit position of the input channel; when the fermentation cylinder moves to the exit position of the input channel, the motor drives the push frame to move and pushes the fermentation cylinder into the entrance position of the output channel; then the push cylinder is started to drive the fermentation cylinder at the entrance of the output channel to move toward the exit direction of the output channel; when the fermentation cylinder moves to the exit position of the output channel, the dough is fermented; workers only need to perform two operations to push the fermentation cylinder, namely, placing the fermentation cylinder at the entrance position of the input channel and pulling out the fermentation cylinder at the exit position of the output channel, which is not only simple and convenient to operate, but also has low labor intensity and high efficiency.

[0010] In order to realize the movement and guidance of the fermentation tank, further improvements are as follows: the U-shaped channel includes a first side rib arranged horizontally on the outside of the transition channel; the two ends of the first side rib lead out horizontally to a second side rib and a third side rib vertically and in the same direction; a parallel fourth side rib is arranged between the second side rib and the third side rib; a spacing is provided between the fourth side rib and the first side rib; the lower ends of the first side rib, the second side rib, the third side rib and the fourth side rib are fixedly connected to the ground through a support frame.

[0011] The cylinder directly acts on the fermentation cylinder, and the piston rod in the cylinder is unstable in extension and retraction. Based on this, a further design is: a moving frame is installed in both the input channel and the output channel; the moving frame is located below the bottom of the fermentation cylinder and between the universal wheels at the bottom of the fermentation cylinder; a push block is installed on the moving frame; and the driving ends of the push-out cylinder and the push-in cylinder are connected to the push block.

[0012] In order to realize the unidirectional movement of the fermentation cylinder, the further design is: the moving frame includes a crossbeam perpendicular to the moving direction of the fermentation cylinder; the push block is installed on the side of the crossbeam facing away from the moving direction of the fermentation cylinder, the middle part of the push block is hinged with the crossbeam, and the upper end of the push block is used to push the fermentation cylinder to move; the push block rotates in the moving direction of the moving frame; the crossbeam is also threadedly connected with a limit bolt, and its threaded end passes through the crossbeam and abuts against the lower end of the inner side of the push block. In this way, when the moving frame moves toward the outlet of the input channel and the output channel, the push block remains in a fixed position under the action of the limit bolt and drives the fermentation cylinder to move in the same direction; when the moving frame moves toward the inlet of the input channel and the output channel, the push block rotates under the blocking action of the fermentation cylinder and moves to the next fermentation cylinder.

[0013] In order to ensure that the fermentation cylinder can stably move from the outlet of the input channel to the inlet of the output channel, a further improvement is that the push frame is U-shaped and is used to clamp one end of the fermentation cylinder.

[0014] The specific structure of the motor-driven push frame is as follows: a mounting frame is led out from one end of the push frame away from the transition channel, and the mounting frame is installed on the bracket; two symmetrically arranged guide rails are provided on the top of the bracket; a guide wheel for engaging the guide rails is provided at the lower end of the skateboard; the mounting frame is installed on the top of the skateboard; a first rotating shaft and a second rotating shaft that are rotatably connected are respectively installed at both ends of the bracket; a first sprocket is installed on the first rotating shaft and the second rotating shaft, and the first sprocket is linked through an engaged first chain; the first rotating shaft is driven by a motor.

[0015] If the motor directly drives the first rotating shaft to rotate, the motor needs to be installed on the axial outside of the first rotating shaft, which will cause the utility model to occupy more space. Based on this, further improvements are: the motor is installed on the radial outside of the first rotating shaft; a second sprocket is also installed on the first rotating shaft; a driving sprocket is fixed to the driving end of the motor, and the driving sprocket and the second sprocket are linked through a meshing second chain.

[0016] The specific structure of the guide rail and the guide wheel is as follows: the guide rail is a horizontally arranged rectangular tube; the guide wheel is provided with an annular U-shaped groove, which is clamped on the inner side of the guide rail. Under the gravity of the skateboard, the rolling resistance of the guide wheel is relatively large. Based on this, a further improvement is that the skateboard is also equipped with an upper roller and a lower roller arranged up and down; the upper roller and the lower roller are both rollingly connected to the guide rail.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0027] Now the utility model is further described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. These drawings are simplified schematic diagrams, which only illustrate the basic structure of the utility model in a schematic manner, and therefore only show the components related to the utility model.

[0028] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, the utility model discloses a dough fermentation conveying device for bread production, comprising a U-shaped channel, which is composed of an input channel 1, a transition channel 2 and an output channel 3 connected in sequence. Specifically, it comprises a first sidewall 9 arranged outside the transition channel 2 and arranged horizontally; two ends of the first sidewall 9 lead out horizontally from a second sidewall 10 and a third sidewall 11 vertically and in the same direction; a parallel fourth sidewall 12 is arranged between the second sidewall 10 and the third sidewall 11; the fourth sidewall 12 is set to be two symmetrical and spaced apart, and a spacing is provided between the fourth sidewall 12 and the first sidewall 9; so that the input channel 1 is formed between the second sidewall 10 and the fourth sidewall 12, the output channel 3 is formed between the third sidewall 11 and the fourth sidewall 12, and the transition channel 2 is formed between the first sidewall 9 and the fourth sidewall 12. The lower ends of the first side 9, the second side 10, the third side 11 and the fourth side 12 are fixedly connected to the ground through the support frame 13, so that the first side 9, the second side 10, the third side 11 and the fourth side 12 are located between the bottom and the top of the fermentation cylinder 5, which limit and guide the fermentation cylinder 5, so that the fermentation cylinder 5 can move stably in the U-shaped channel.

[0029] A moving frame 14 is installed in both the input channel 1 and the output channel 3. The moving frame 14 is rectangular and includes two horizontal, symmetrically arranged longitudinal beams 32, and a plurality of cross beams 17 are vertically connected between the longitudinal beams 32. The moving frame 14 is located below the bottom of the fermentation cylinder 5 and between the universal wheels 15 at the bottom of the fermentation cylinder 5. Figure 3 As shown, a base is installed on the ground, and an upper limit roller 33 and a lower limit roller 34 are installed on the base, and the longitudinal beam 32 is sandwiched between the upper limit roller 33 and the lower limit roller 34, so that the mobile frame 14 can move along the input channel 1 and the output channel 3. A push-in cylinder 4 is installed on the ground of the input channel 1, and its piston rod is fixedly connected to the center position of the cross beam 17; a push-out cylinder 6 is installed on the ground of the output channel 3, and its piston rod is fixedly connected to the center position of the cross beam 17; in this way, the mobile frame 14 can be driven to move horizontally.

[0030] Each crossbeam 17 is hinged with two symmetrically arranged push blocks 16 on one side facing away from the moving direction of the fermentation tank 5. Figure 5As shown, the middle position of the push block 16 intersects with the crossbeam 17, and the upper end is used to push the fermentation cylinder 5 to move. The crossbeam 17 is also threadedly connected with a limit bolt 31, and its threaded end passes through the crossbeam 17 and abuts against the lower end of the inner side of the push block 16. In this way, when the mobile frame 14 moves toward the outlet direction of the input channel 1 and the output channel 3, the push block 16 remains in a fixed position under the action of the limit bolt 31, and drives the fermentation cylinder 5 to move in the same direction; when the mobile frame 14 moves toward the inlet direction of the input channel 1 and the output channel 3, the push block 16 rotates under the blocking action of the fermentation cylinder 5 and moves to the next fermentation cylinder 5. In this way, by repeatedly extending and retracting the push cylinder 4 and the push cylinder 6, the fermentation cylinder 5 can be driven to gradually move toward the input channel 1 and the outlet direction of the input channel 1.

[0031] The top of the push block 16 is chamfered on one side facing away from the cross beam 17 , and the chamfered surface contacts the fermentation cylinder 5 , so that the resistance of the fermentation cylinder 5 to the push block 16 forms a thrust in the horizontal direction, driving the push block 16 to rotate.

[0032] A support 19 is provided on the outside of the transition channel 2. Figure 6 As shown, two symmetrical, parallel, and spaced guide rails 20 are provided on the top of the bracket 19, and the material thereof is a rectangular tube. A horizontally arranged slide plate 21 is provided on the upper end of the mounting frame 18, and two rows of guide wheels 22 are installed on the lower end of the slide plate 21, and each row is provided with two guide wheels 22. The guide wheels 22 are provided with a ring-shaped U-shaped groove, which is clamped on the inner side of the guide rail 20 to realize the rolling connection of the slide plate 21.

[0033] like Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, the skateboard 21 is also equipped with an upper roller 29 and a lower roller 30 arranged up and down; the guide rail 20 is located between the upper roller 29 and the lower roller 30, and is connected to the upper roller 29 and the lower roller 30, so that the upper roller 29 supports the skateboard 21, and the lower roller 30 limits the skateboard 21, so that the skateboard 21 slides more smoothly.

[0034] The first rotating shaft 23 and the second rotating shaft 24 are respectively installed at both ends of the bracket 19 for rotation connection; the first rotating shaft 23 and the second rotating shaft 24 are both installed with a first sprocket 25, and the first sprocket 25 is linked by a meshing first chain 26. The mounting frame 18 leads the bracket to the outside of the first rotating shaft 23, and the upper end of the bracket is installed with a motor 8, which is a reduction motor in this embodiment. The first rotating shaft 23 is also installed with a second sprocket 27; the driving end of the motor 8 is fixed with a driving sprocket 28, and the driving sprocket 28 and the second sprocket 27 are linked by a meshing second chain. The position setting of the motor 8 can reduce the occupied area of ​​the utility model.

[0035] A U-shaped push frame 7 is installed in the transition channel 2, and its open end faces the output channel 3. The push frame 7 leads out from the end away from the transition channel 2 to the mounting frame 18, and the mounting frame 18 is fixedly mounted on the bracket 19. In this way, the motor 8 can drive the push frame 7 to move between the exit position of the input channel 1 and the entrance position of the transition channel 2 and the input channel 1. When the fermentation cylinder 5 moves to the exit position of the input channel 1, the push frame 7 is located on the side of the fermentation cylinder 5 facing away from the output channel, and clamps one end of the fermentation cylinder 5, so that the movement stability of the fermentation cylinder 5 can be improved. When the motor 8 is started, the push frame 7 can push the fermentation cylinder 5 to cross the transition channel 2 and move to the entrance position of the output channel 3.

[0036] The fermentation cylinder 5 containing the dough to be fermented is placed at the entrance position of the input channel 1, and the push cylinder 4 drives the fermentation cylinder 5 to move to the outlet position of the input channel 1; when the fermentation cylinder 5 moves to the outlet position of the input channel 1, the motor 8 drives the push frame 7 to move, and pushes the fermentation cylinder 5 into the entrance position of the output channel 3; then the push cylinder 6 is started to drive the fermentation cylinder 5 at the entrance of the output channel 3 to move toward the outlet direction of the output channel 3; when the fermentation cylinder 5 moves to the outlet position of the output channel 3, the dough is fermented; the worker only needs to perform two operations to push the fermentation cylinder 5, namely, placing the fermentation cylinder 5 at the entrance position of the input channel 1, and pulling out the fermentation cylinder 5 at the outlet position of the output channel 3. It is not only simple and convenient to operate, but also has low labor intensity and high efficiency.

[0037] Based on the above ideal embodiments of the utility model, the relevant staff can make various changes and modifications without departing from the technical concept of the utility model through the above description. The technical scope of the utility model is not limited to the content of the specification, and its technical scope must be determined according to the scope of the claims.
