[0025] This specific embodiment is a tray assembly for forming tofu slurry into blocks, and its structural schematic diagram is as follows: Figure 1-Figure 5 As shown, the tray assembly includes a plurality of mutually stacked shaping assemblies 1, the shaping assembly 1 includes a tray 2, a gauze 3 and a plastic grid 4, the plastic grid 4 is mesh-shaped, and is used to place one piece on each layer of the tray 2 to squeeze and shape the entire upper surface, a plurality of drainage holes 5 are provided on the side of the tray 2, and a plurality of horizontal dividing pieces 6 and vertical dividing pieces 7 are integrally connected to the inner bottom of the tray 2, the horizontal dividing pieces 6 and the vertical dividing pieces 7 have the same height, a tofu grid 8 is formed between the horizontal dividing pieces 6 and the vertical dividing pieces 7, and a plurality of through holes 9 are provided on the inner bottom wall of the tofu grid 8, the gauze 3 is used to wrap the tofu slurry, and the plastic grid 4 is arranged on the upper surface of the gauze 3.

[0026] When in use, place the tray 2 on a flat place (such as a table or a shelf), then spread the gauze 3 flat in the tray 2, then fill the tofu grid 8 with tofu slurry, and then wrap the upper surface of the tofu slurry with the remaining gauze 3, for example, the four diagonal corners of the gauze 3 are folded along the four sides of the tray 2 to form a wrapped state, then place a horizontal plastic grid 4 on the gauze 3, and then the trays 2 are stacked up and down, and the bottom of the upper tray 2 is pressed down on the top of the lower tray 2. When the tofu block is formed, the plastic grid 4 and the gauze 3 are used together to squeeze out the excess water and discharge it from the leakage hole 5. The horizontal dividing piece 6 and the vertical dividing piece 7 are used to limit the thickness of the tofu block. Each tofu grid 8 is a tofu block, and then the tray 2, plastic grid and gauze of each layer are taken out in turn, which can be automatically divided and shaped to form tofu blocks, and the heat is dissipated and ventilated through the set through holes 9.

[0027] like Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown: In this embodiment, the tray 2 is made of food-grade plastic, and the four corners of the tray 2 are fixedly connected with reinforcing ribs 201.

[0028] The tofu blocks made by using the tray 2 in this way are clean and hygienic, and the reinforcing ribs 201 ensure the overall strength of the tray 2, so that the tray 2 can be lifted and placed in its entirety.

[0029] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown: In this embodiment, the four sides of the tofu grid 8 are provided with draft angles for facilitating the removal of the tofu blocks, and rounded corners can also be provided at the inner bottom of the tofu grid 8. The draft angles and rounded corners facilitate the removal of the tofu blocks. In this way, the bottom of the tofu grid 8 can also be slightly smaller, and all the edges and corners are rounded, which makes it easier to take out the tofu blocks after they are formed, preventing damage to the surface of the tofu blocks.

[0030] In this embodiment, the gauze 3 is pure cotton white gauze. The pure cotton white gauze has good water absorption and high mesh density, and has the effect of drainage and ventilation, thereby preventing the moisture of the tofu slurry from flowing out of the gauze 3 when making tofu blocks.

[0031] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown: In this embodiment, the bottom area of ​​the tray 2 is smaller than the top area.

[0032] In this way, the multiple trays 2 are arranged to have the same size, and the upper tray 2 can be placed inside the lower tray 2 .

[0033] like Figure 1 As shown: In this embodiment, a flat shovel 10 with an open end is also included, and the area of ​​the flat shovel 10 is the same as the entire outer size of the tray 2.

[0034] In this way, the length and width of the flat shovel 10 are equal to the entire outer dimensions of the tray 2. Each time a large piece of flat tofu is shoveled into the tray 2, it can be distributed and filled into each small grid of the tray 2 at the same time. Each small grid is shaped as a small tofu block, and the operation is more convenient.

[0035] like Figure 1 As shown: In this embodiment, a handle 11 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the flat shovel 10. This arrangement makes it more convenient to take the flat shovel 10, avoids contact with the tofu, and is more hygienic. Moreover, compared with the traditional operation of putting the tofu slurry into one grid at a time with a spoon, this embodiment greatly improves the efficiency of filling the tofu slurry into the small grids of the tray 2.

[0036] Working principle: when in use, place the tray 2 on a flat place, then spread the gauze 3 flatly in the tray 2, then use the flat shovel 10, scoop a large piece of flat tofu into the tray 2, evenly distribute it in each small grid of the tray 2, cover the tofu grid 8 with the upper surface of the tofu slurry, and fold the four diagonals of the gauze 3 along the four sides of the tray 2 to form a wrapped state, then place a horizontal plastic grid 4 on the gauze 3, and then the tray 2 is stacked up and down, the bottom of the upper tray 2 is pressed down on the top of the lower tray 2, and when the tofu block is formed, the plastic grid 4 and the gauze 3 are used to cooperate to discharge excess water from the leakage hole 5, and the horizontal dividing piece 6 and the vertical dividing piece 7 are used to limit the thickness of the tofu block, each tofu grid 8 is a tofu block, and then the tray 2, plastic grid and gauze of each layer are taken out in turn, which can automatically divide and shape to form tofu blocks, and the heat is dissipated and ventilated through the set through holes 9, and finally the formed tofu blocks are taken out. The whole operation is simple, the tofu slurry can be automatically shaped and divided, and it has the advantages of high output and high efficiency.

[0037] All technical features in this embodiment can be freely combined according to actual needs.

[0038] The above embodiments are preferred implementation schemes of the present invention. In addition, the present invention can also be implemented in other ways. Any obvious replacement without departing from the concept of the present technical solution is within the protection scope of the present invention.
