Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of soft tofu production equipment, in particular to a pulping soft tofu forming machine. Background Art

[0002] Tender tofu is also called gypsum tofu. The molding agent used is gypsum liquid. Compared with northern tofu, it is softer and more delicate. It is common to make tofu with gypsum in rural areas. The main process is the same as making brine, sour water, and "sweet tree leaf" tofu, except that gypsum is used instead of brine, sour water, and sweet leaf juice. Gypsum tofu is white in color, delicate and soft in texture, rich in protein, and has high nutritional value.

[0003] The production process of soft tofu is as follows: soybeans, soaking beans, grinding, filtering, boiling, pulping, and molding (finished product). In order to improve production efficiency and facilitate operation, current soy product manufacturers generally operate pulping and molding together, that is, put gypsum water and soybean milk in the molding equipment (usually a warehouse) for pulping, and then wait for molding. However, after molding in this way, it is difficult to take the tofu out of the equipment, and the cutting of tofu is not precise and uncontrollable, which is extremely disadvantageous in industrial tofu production, resulting in different sizes of cut tofu, affecting the selling point. Utility Model Content

[0004] The utility model aims to provide a pulping and tender tofu forming machine to solve the problems that in the existing tofu forming method, tofu is difficult to take out and tofu cutting is not precise and uncontrollable.

[0005] In order to solve the above technical problems, the utility model adopts the following technical solutions:

[0006] A pulping and tender tofu forming machine comprises a casing, a loading plate, a bucket and a lifting mechanism, wherein a forming cavity and a storage cavity are sequentially arranged in the casing from top to bottom, the loading plate is slidably installed in the forming cavity, a U-shaped baffle matched with the bucket is arranged on the top of the forming cavity, the lifting mechanism is installed in the storage cavity, and the working end of the lifting mechanism is connected to the bottom of the loading plate.

[0007] A further technical solution is: the lifting mechanism includes a seat body, a worm, a worm wheel, a threaded rod and a motor, the seat body and the motor are both installed on the horizontal plate in the storage cavity, the worm and the worm wheel are both rotatably installed in the seat body and meshed with each other, the power output end of the motor is connected to one end of the worm, the threaded rod is threadedly connected to the nut in the center of the worm wheel, and the top of the threaded rod is connected to the bottom of the loading plate.

[0008] A further technical solution is: a protective tube is installed in the storage cavity, and the bottom of the threaded rod is located in the protective tube.

[0009] A further technical solution is that an oil filling hole is arranged on the protective tube.

[0010] A further technical solution is: a handle is installed at the other end of the worm.

[0011] A further technical solution is that a dynamic sealing pair is provided between the carrier plate and the molding cavity.

[0012] A further technical solution is that a wedge is provided at the feed end of the bucket.

[0013] A further technical solution is that handles are symmetrically arranged on the bucket.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the present invention can achieve at least one of the following beneficial effects:

[0015] The utility model provides a pulping and tender tofu forming machine. After the tofu is formed, the forming machine can use a lifting mechanism to gradually lift up a loading plate according to the height of the tofu to be cut, and then use a bucket to shovel out the raised tofu to obtain a plate of finished tofu. When the forming machine is in use, the tofu is easy to discharge and the tofu cutting is accurate and controllable, which greatly facilitates the use of tofu production and operation.
