[0030] The following will be combined with the attached Figures 1 to 6The utility model is described in detail, and the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model are clearly and completely described. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of them. Based on the embodiments of the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0031] The utility model provides a reciprocating tablet pressing mechanism for candy production through improvement. Figure 1 - Figure 5 As shown, it includes a tablet pressing assembly 1, which includes two brackets 101, a tablet pressing component 102 and a conveyor belt 103 are installed between the two brackets 101, and the tablet pressing component 102 is used to roll the candy through a roller. The tablet pressing component 102 is a prior art and will not be described here. A pressing assembly 2 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the conveyor belt 103;

[0032] The pressing assembly 2 includes a sliding frame 201 fixedly connected to the conveyor belt 103, a slider 202 is slidably connected inside the sliding frame 201, a thrust spring 203 is fixedly connected between the slider 202 and the inner wall of the sliding frame 201, a rotating rod 204 is rotatably connected to the slider 202, a mounting frame 205 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the conveyor belt 103, universal joints 206 are rotatably connected to the rotating rod 204 and the side wall of the mounting frame 205, a square telescopic rod 207 is fixedly connected between the two universal joints 206, a motor 208 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the mounting frame 205, an output end of the motor 208 is fixedly connected to the universal joint 206, and a push-pull assembly 3 is fixedly connected to the rotating rod 204.

[0033] In this embodiment: During use, the telescopic component 4 can exert a downward pressure on the candy, and this downward pressure comes from the thrust of the thrust spring 203 on the slider 202. Whenever the telescopic component 4 rotates, it will also drive the slider 202 to move upward. In addition, during the rotation of the telescopic component 4, the conveyor belt 103 will also move synchronously, so that the telescopic component 4 can have a winding effect on the candy.

[0034] In the above embodiment, in order to make the telescopic component 4 and the barb component 5 better separate from the candy after the telescopic component 4 and the barb component 5 roll up the candy, so as to achieve the purpose of folding the candy, the following method can be adopted:

[0035] The push-pull assembly 3 includes a push cylinder 301 fixedly connected to the rotating rod 204, a hollow magnetic plug 302 is slidably connected inside the push cylinder 301, a connecting rod 303 is fixedly connected to the hollow magnetic plug 302, an electromagnet 304 magnetically connected to the hollow magnetic plug 302 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the push cylinder 301, a return spring 305 is fixedly connected between the hollow magnetic plug 302 and the push cylinder 301, and a telescopic assembly 4 is fixedly connected to the end of the connecting rod 303 away from the hollow magnetic plug 302. The shrink assembly 4 includes a fixed shell 401 fixedly connected to the connecting rod 303, a tube body 402 fixedly connected inside the fixed shell 401, a delivery pipe 403 connected to the tube body 402, and the delivery pipe 403 passes through the connecting rod 303 and is connected to the hollow magnetic plug 302, two inner tubes 404 are inserted inside the tube body 402, the two inner tubes 404 are fixedly connected to the piston ring block 405 at one end opposite to each other, and the two inner tubes 404 are fixedly connected to the barb assembly 5 at the opposite ends.

[0036] In a preferred embodiment, when the electromagnet 304 is started, the magnetic repulsion force is used to push the hollow magnetic plug 302 to move. When the hollow magnetic plug 302 moves, it can squeeze the hydraulic cylinder inside the push cylinder 301, so that it is transported to the delivery pipe 403 through the hole drilled on the hollow magnetic plug 302, and then transported to the folding tube 501 through the piston ring block 405. When the hydraulic pressure in the piston ring block 405 and the folding tube 501 increases, the inner tube 404 will extend, thereby increasing the distance between the two barb assemblies 5.

[0037] refer to Figure 4 and Figure 6 In a preferred embodiment, the barb assembly 5 includes a folding tube 501 connected to the inner tube 404, and the folding tube 501 is connected to multiple thorn tubes 502, and the multiple thorn tubes 502 are slidably connected to the inside of each of the mobile plugs 503, and the side wall of the mobile plug 503 is fixedly connected to the barb 504, and a connecting spring 505 is fixedly connected between the mobile plug 503 and the folding tube 501, and the upper and lower side walls of the folding tube 501 are fixedly connected to baffles 506, and two synchronization assemblies 6 are arranged between the two folding tubes 501, and the synchronization assembly 6 includes a gear 601 rotatably connected to the inner wall of the fixed shell 401, and the opposite side walls of the two folding tubes 501 are fixedly connected to racks 602, and the racks 602 are meshed with the gears 601.

[0038] In this embodiment, when the hydraulic pressure of the folding tube 501 increases, the movable plug 503 is pushed to move, so that the barb 504 extends from the inside of the thorn tube 502 to hook the candy and improve the adhesion to the candy. In addition, through the engagement of the gear 601 and the rack 602, the two folding tubes 501 can move synchronously.

[0039] Working principle: When in use, first, the staff starts the conveyor belt 103, places the candy on the conveyor belt 103, and uses the pressing component 102 to press the candy. Then, the staff starts the motor 208, and the motor 208 drives the rotating rod 204 to rotate through two universal joints 206 and the square telescopic rod 207. The rotating rod 204 drives the telescopic component 4 to rotate through the push-pull component 3;

[0040] At the same time, the staff starts the electromagnet 304, and the electromagnet 304 uses the magnetic repulsion to push the hollow magnetic plug 302 to move. When the hollow magnetic plug 302 moves, it can squeeze the hydraulic cylinder inside the push cylinder 301, so that it is transported to the delivery tube 403 through the hole drilled on the hollow magnetic plug 302, and then transported to the folding tube 501 through the piston ring block 405. When the hydraulic pressure of the folding tube 501 increases, it will push the movable plug 503 to move, so that the barb 504 extends from the inside of the thorn storage tube 502, so as to hook the candy and improve the adhesion to the candy. When the hydraulic pressure in the piston ring block 405 and the folding tube 501 increases, the inner tube 404 will extend, thereby increasing the distance between the two barb assemblies 5;

[0041] At this time, the staff puts the pressed candy on the baffle 506 and starts the conveyor belt 103 to move in the direction of rotation of the telescopic component 4. At this time, the barb 504 will drill into the candy and reel the candy. In this process, the slider 202 will continue to move up and down, but because the motor 208 is driven by the universal joint 206 and the square telescopic rod 207, it will not affect the reeling of the candy.

[0042] After the barb assembly 5 has completed rolling up the candy, the candy now appears as a flat oval ball. At this time, the switch of the electromagnet 304 is turned off. At this time, the hollow magnetic plug 302 is reset under the pulling force of the reset spring 305, and the hydraulic oil is withdrawn. At this time, the folding tube 501 and the barb 504 are retracted inside the candy at the same time. Finally, the staff only needs to pull out the candy to complete the folding.

[0043] The above description of the disclosed embodiments enables those skilled in the art to implement or use the present invention. Various modifications to these embodiments will be apparent to those skilled in the art, and the general principles defined herein may be implemented in other embodiments without departing from the spirit or scope of the present invention. Therefore, the present invention will not be limited to the embodiments shown herein, but will conform to the widest scope consistent with the principles and novel features disclosed herein.
