Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of food processing, in particular to a mould for processing rice candy. Background Art

[0002] Rice candy is a famous traditional snack. It is sweet and delicious with the fragrance of rice. Rice candy is mainly made of glutinous rice and white sugar. In the production process, the glutinous rice needs to be steamed, dried to make it still in the original rice grain shape, and then mixed with maltose with water at an appropriate strength, baked in a pot, and after the water is dried, fried with sand. At this time, one grain of rice can grow to the size of four grains of rice (frying with lard or vegetable oil has the same effect. In order to save oil, sand is generally used for frying). Then, white sugar and maltose are used to make syrup, and the prepared rice is poured into the syrup, and a little peanut kernel is added. After mixing well in the pot, pour it into the box on the table, pinch it into cubes, and then cut it into small pieces with a knife to make the product.

[0003] At present, in the processing enterprises of rice candy, when shaping the rice candy, it is usually placed in a box (i.e. a mold with a rectangular hole on the top), flattened by external force, cooled and shaped, and then taken out and cut into blocks for packaging and sale. This shaping method is not only time-consuming and labor-intensive, but also requires multiple manual operations and is not easy to demold. Utility Model Content

[0004] Therefore, in order to solve the above-mentioned shortcomings, the utility model provides a mold for processing rice candy, which is a mold cavity opened on the chain plate in the chain plate conveyor belt, so that rice candy can be easily loaded into the mold cavity for flattening and shaping, and can be conveyed at the same time, so as to facilitate the automated processing of rice candy. Subsequently, through the knocking component below the end of the chain plate conveyor belt, it can be easily contacted with the chain plate rotated to the bottom to knock, so that the rice candy inside can be easily fallen off, and then it is convenient to demold.

[0005] The utility model is implemented in this way: a mold for processing rice candy is constructed, including a chain plate conveyor belt, a chain plate of which is provided with a plurality of mold cavities, and a knocking component is further provided below the conveying end of the chain plate conveyor belt, and the knocking component contacts the chain plate to realize knocking.

[0006] Specifically, the chain plate conveyor belt includes a support frame and a transmission chain arranged at both ends of the inner side of the support frame. The transmission chain is tensioned on the sprockets at both ends of the support frame. Any one of the sprockets is driven to rotate by a driving motor and a transmission mechanism. Both sides of one end of the chain plate are connected to the transmission chain through an L-shaped connecting plate, and a mold cavity is arranged on the other end of the chain plate.

[0007] Specifically, the knocking assembly includes a rotating rod and a plurality of knocking rods evenly distributed on the outside of the rotating rod. The rotating rod is rotatably installed below the conveying end of the chain plate conveyor belt through a cantilever rod. Any one of the knocking rods is inserted between two adjacent chain plates. When the chain plates move with the transmission chain, the knocking rods are pushed to rotate around the rotating rod.

[0008] Specifically, a sleeve is installed at the outer end of the knocking rod, and the sleeve is rotatably arranged at the outer end of the knocking rod.

[0009] Specifically, a ratchet mechanism is further provided at the outer end of the rotating rod, the number of ratchet teeth of the ratchet in the ratchet mechanism corresponds to the number of the knocking rods, and the rotation direction of the ratchet mechanism is opposite to the rotation direction of the chain plate conveyor belt.

[0010] The utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0011] The mold is a mold cavity opened on the chain plate in the chain plate conveyor belt, which can be convenient for loading rice candy into the mold cavity for flattening and shaping, and can also be conveyed, so as to facilitate the automated processing of the rice candy. Subsequently, through the knocking component below the end of the chain plate conveyor belt, it can be convenient for the knocking component to contact and knock with the chain plate rotated to the bottom, so that the rice candy inside can be easily removed, and then demolding is convenient, so as to further realize the automated processing of the rice candy. Compared with manually putting the rice candy into the mold for flattening and shaping and demolding, and then cutting it into small pieces, the mold can effectively improve the processing efficiency, save the cutting step, and greatly save human labor.

[0020] The technical solution of the present invention is further specifically described below through specific embodiments in combination with the accompanying drawings; it should be understood that the specific implementation methods described herein are only used to illustrate and explain the present invention, and are not intended to limit the present invention in any way; the accompanying drawings in the present invention are only used to assist in the description of the embodiments and to facilitate understanding, and are not intended to limit the present invention in any way.

[0021] It should be noted that the structures, proportions, sizes, etc. illustrated in the drawings of this specification are only used to match the contents disclosed in the specification so that people familiar with this technology can understand and read them, and are not used to limit the conditions under which the present invention can be implemented. Any structural modification, change in proportional relationship or adjustment of size should still fall within the scope of the technical contents disclosed in the present invention without affecting the effects and purposes that can be achieved by the present invention.

[0022] As described in the background art, during the production process of rice krispie candies, the rice krispie candies are usually manually placed in a mold and manually flattened, and then manually demolded and cut after cooling and shaping. This operation is not only time-consuming and labor-intensive, but also inefficient.

[0023] For the reasons stated above, please refer to the attached Figure 1 The utility model provides a mold for processing rice candy, including a chain plate conveyor belt, a chain plate 3 of which is provided with a plurality of mold cavities, and a knocking component is further provided below the conveying end of the chain plate conveyor belt, and the knocking component contacts the chain plate 3 to realize knocking.

[0024] Through the above technical features, a mold cavity is opened on the chain plate of the chain conveyor belt, which is convenient for putting in rice candies, shaping them and conveying them. Compared with the traditional soft conveyor belt where molds are installed at intervals, it can not only withstand the high temperature of the rice candies before molding, but also facilitates installation.

[0025] Furthermore, the knocking assembly can also be arranged between the upper and lower belt surfaces of the conveyor belt, such as the knocking assembly is arranged as an automatically retractable electronic push rod or cylinder, Figure 4It can be seen that a mounting rod 10 is provided between the upper and lower belt surfaces of the conveyor belt, and the mounting rod can be used to facilitate the installation of an electronic push rod or a cylinder. When the electronic push rod or the cylinder extends downward, it knocks the chain plate at the lower end of the conveyor belt, thereby facilitating the demoulding of the rice candy inside.

[0026] Specifically, the chain plate conveyor belt specifically includes a support frame 1 and a transmission chain 2 arranged at both ends of the inner side of the support frame 1, the transmission chain 2 is tensioned on the sprockets 8 at both ends of the support frame 1, and any one of the sprockets 8 is driven to rotate by a driving motor and a transmission mechanism. Both sides of one end of the chain plate 3 are connected to the transmission chain 2 through an L-shaped connecting plate 9, and a mold cavity is arranged on the other end of the chain plate 3.

[0027] Through the above technical features, the specific structure of the chain plate conveyor belt is set to facilitate the installation of the chain plate, while ensuring that the chain plate can be knocked by the above-mentioned knocking assembly to facilitate demoulding.

[0028] Specifically, the knocking assembly includes a rotating rod 4 and a plurality of knocking rods 5 evenly distributed on the outside of the rotating rod 4. The rotating rod 4 is rotatably installed below the conveying end of the chain plate conveyor belt through a cantilever rod 7. Any one of the knocking rods 5 is inserted between two adjacent chain plates 3. When the chain plates 3 move with the transmission chain 2, the knocking rod 5 will be pushed to rotate around the rotating rod 4.

[0029] Through the above technical features, the specific form of setting the knocking component is to facilitate the insertion of the knocking rod between the two chain plates. When the chain plate moves with the transmission chain, it collides with the knocking rod, thereby knocking to facilitate the demolding of the rice candy inside.

[0030] Specifically, a sleeve is installed at the outer end of the knocking rod 5 , and the sleeve is rotatably arranged at the outer end of the knocking rod 5 .

[0031] Through the above technical features, the sleeve is rotatably installed at the outer end of the knock rod to ensure that the chain plate will not cause motion interference when pushing the knock rod 5 to rotate around the rotating rod 4.

[0032] Specifically, a ratchet mechanism 6 is further provided at the outer end of the rotating rod 4. The number of ratchet teeth of the ratchet in the ratchet mechanism 6 corresponds to the number of the knocking rods 5. The rotation direction of the ratchet mechanism 6 is opposite to the rotation direction of the chain plate conveyor belt.

[0033] Through the above-mentioned technical features, the purpose of setting the ratchet mechanism is to ensure that after the chain plate pushes the knocking rod to rotate around the rotating rod 4 by an angle, a knocking rod at its rear end is just between the chain plates at the rear end, and is fixed at the same time to prevent the rotating rod from rotating arbitrarily and causing the knocking rod at the rear end to be unable to knock the chain plate at the rear end, which may further cause the rice candy in the mold cavity of the chain plate to be unable to be demolded. At the same time, through the setting of the ratchet mechanism, when the chain plate contacts the knocking rod, the ratchet mechanism will provide a reaction force to achieve the purpose of knocking. When the chain-type conveyor belt continues to move to drive the chain plate to move, the force it generates is much greater than the reaction force of the ratchet mechanism, which can push the ratchet to move one position on the pawl. Therefore, through the ratchet mechanism, not only the knocking of the chain plate is achieved, but also the movement of the chain-type conveyor belt will not be affected.

[0034] When the mold is in use, a blanking mechanism (such as a spiral feeder), a clamping mechanism (such as a roller whose bottom contacts and rotates with the chain plate and a clamping plate that can be raised and lowered above the chain plate) and a cooling mechanism (i.e., a cold air blower) are pre-installed above the chain plate conveyor belt. When the blanking mechanism pours the rice candy into the mold cavity of the chain plate, it is compressed and shaped by the clamping mechanism and the cooling mechanism. When it is then conveyed to the end, the chain plate 3 is flipped over. When the chain plate 3 rotates to the bottom, it collides with the knocking rod 5. At this time, the rice candy formed in the mold cavity will flow outward under the vibration of the chain plate 3 and the action of gravity, thereby realizing demoulding. The chain plate 3 continues to rotate to overcome the force of the pawl in the ratchet mechanism 6 on the ratchet (the ratchet rotates in the forward direction and cannot rotate in the reverse direction) to drive the knocking rod 5 to rotate around the center of the rotating rod 4. Finally, the chain plate 3 is separated from the knocking rod 5, and a knocking rod 5 at the rear end contacts the chain plate 3 at the rear end for knocking, thereby realizing the automatic shaping and demoulding process of the rice candy.

[0035] The above description is a detailed description of the preferred feasible embodiment of the utility model, but the embodiment is not used to limit the scope of the patent application of the utility model. All equivalent changes or modified changes completed under the technical spirit suggested by the utility model should fall within the patent scope covered by the utility model.
