[0032] In this embodiment, please refer to Figures 2 - 4 , the noodle sheet guiding mechanism is in a funnel shape, which includes a housing 21 with openings at both the upper and lower ends. The housing 21 can be slidably connected to the frame 1 through a slide rail 25 and perform a reciprocating linear motion under the drive of the driving mechanism. The housing 21 can also be connected to the frame 1 through a hinge shaft and perform a reciprocating swing under the drive of the driving mechanism. In this embodiment, taking the housing 21 being slidably connected to the frame 1 through the slide rail 25 as an example, a number of guiding sliders 22 are provided in the housing 21, and the number of guiding sliders 22 are distributed in a V shape. The guiding sliders 22 are commercially available non-powered rollers. The noodle sheet produced by the noodle making machine enters from the wide mouth end of the funnel-shaped housing 21 and exits from the narrow mouth end of the funnel-shaped housing 21, and then is placed in the receiving device 3. During production, the driving device drives the noodle sheet guiding mechanism to perform a reciprocating linear motion or a reciprocating swing, so that the noodle sheet is stacked in the receiving device 3 to realize noodle sheet folding. Since the noodle sheet has a certain viscosity, in this embodiment, non-powered rollers are used as the guiding sliders 22, which can prevent the noodle sheet from sticking in the noodle sheet guiding mechanism and enable the noodle sheet to pass through the noodle sheet guiding mechanism smoothly. It should be noted that a feeding detection sensor is installed on the housing 21 to detect whether the noodle sheet enters the noodle sheet guiding mechanism.

[0033] In addition, please refer to Figure 5 , the noodle sheet guiding mechanism can also adopt a housing 21 surrounded by side plates in a funnel shape. The two ends of the housing 21 are still open, and a pair of guiding sliders 22 are provided at the bottom of the housing 21. During production, the noodle sheet of the noodle making equipment enters from the wide mouth end of the funnel-shaped housing 21 and exits from the narrow mouth end of the funnel-shaped housing 21. The guiding sliders 22 at the bottom of the housing 21 prevent the housing 21 from sticking to the noodle sheet or scratching the noodle sheet.

[0034] In this embodiment, please refer to Figure 3 and Figure 5, the driving mechanism includes a flywheel 23 and a connecting rod 24. One end of the connecting rod 24 is connected to the flywheel 23, and the other end is connected to the noodle belt guiding mechanism. The flywheel 23 is driven by a motor. The flywheel 23 drives the noodle belt guiding mechanism to reciprocally slide or swing reciprocally around the hinge axis through the connecting rod 24, thereby realizing the folding of the noodle belt. It should be noted that the driving mechanism can also be a cylinder or an oil cylinder, which drives the noodle belt guiding mechanism through the cylinder or the oil cylinder. The driving mechanism can also be a chain drive structure to drive the noodle belt guiding mechanism. It should be noted that a whole machine controller, such as a PLC, is installed on the frame 1 and is connected to the incoming material sensor 26, which can control the start, stop, and speed of the motor, and can communicate with the noodle making equipment.

[0035] In this embodiment, please refer to Figure 1 , the receiving device 3 includes a receiving tank 31 and a walking trolley 32. The walking trolley 32 is a non-powered trolley and is manually towed during use. The receiving tank 31 is provided with a weighing sensor. The walking trolley 32 is equipped with a trolley controller, such as a PLC. When the noodle belt passes through the noodle belt guiding mechanism and reaches the receiving tank 31, the weighing sensor is triggered. The trolley controller receives the information and determines that the noodle belt has reached the receiving tank 31. Then the trolley controller sends a wireless signal to the whole machine controller to start the motor. The flywheel 23 rotates and drives the noodle belt guiding mechanism to reciprocate linearly through the connecting rod 24, and starts to fold the noodle belt. The noodle belt is stacked in the receiving tank 31. When the weighing sensor weighs and measures to a predetermined weight, after the trolley controller receives the information, it sends the information to the whole machine controller. The whole machine controller then sends a signal to the noodle making equipment to cut off the noodle belt and stop the machine. Then the driving mechanism continues to work for a preset duration. When the incoming material sensor, manually tow the walking trolley 32 to transfer the stacked noodle belt to the next process. When the noodle belt in the walking trolley 32 is taken away, the walking trolley 32 returns to the folding machine again. The whole machine controller judges that the walking trolley 32 has returned to its place through the trolley in-place sensor on the frame 1, and the weighing sensor is not triggered. Then the whole machine controller sends a signal to the noodle making machine, and the noodle making machine restarts the noodle production. The noodle belt enters the noodle belt guiding mechanism, triggers the incoming material sensor 26, and then is stacked in the receiving tank 31, triggering the material sensor 33. Then, after the whole machine controller receives the signal from the trolley controller, it starts the motor and starts the noodle belt guiding mechanism to fold the noodle belt, repeating the above actions.

[0036] It should be noted that the connection between the whole machine controller and the trolley controller uses wireless technology to achieve communication.

[0037] The utility model can be adapted to a variety of different noodle making machines, and can be quickly docked with the noodle making machines. The receiving device using an AGV trolley with a receiving tank can also realize the automatic transfer of materials between different noodle making processes. The utility model can reduce the labor intensity and has high flexibility.

[0038] Embodiment 2

[0039] The difference between this embodiment and Embodiment 1 lies in that: the walking trolley 32 is a self-powered trolley, such as an AGV trolley. The walking trolley 32 is equipped with a driving motor and a trolley controller, and the walking trolley 32 can move by remote control or along a preset path.

[0040] During production, when the noodle strip passes through the noodle strip guiding mechanism and reaches the receiving trough 31, it triggers the weighing sensor. The trolley controller receives the information and determines that the noodle strip has reached the receiving trough 31. Then the trolley controller sends a wireless signal to the whole machine controller to start the motor. The flywheel 23 rotates and drives the noodle strip guiding mechanism to perform reciprocating linear motion through the connecting rod 24, and starts to fold the noodle strip. The noodle strip is stacked in the receiving trough 31. When the weighing sensor weighs and measures to a predetermined weight, after the trolley controller receives the information, it sends the information to the whole machine controller. The whole machine controller then sends a signal to the noodle making equipment to cut off the noodle strip and stop the machine. Then the driving mechanism continues to work for a preset duration. When the incoming material sensor 26 is not triggered, the whole machine controller stops the driving mechanism. Manually tow the walking trolley 32 to transfer the stacked noodle strip to the next process. When the noodle strip in the walking trolley 32 is taken away, the walking trolley 32 returns to the folding machine again. The whole machine controller judges that the walking trolley 32 has returned to its position through the trolley in-place sensor on the frame 1, and the weighing sensor is not triggered. Then the whole machine controller sends a signal to the noodle making machine, and the noodle making machine restarts the production of the noodle strip. The noodle strip enters the noodle strip guiding mechanism, triggers the incoming material sensor 26, and then is stacked in the receiving trough 31, triggering the material arrival sensor 33. Then after the whole machine controller receives the signal from the trolley controller, it starts the motor and starts the noodle strip guiding mechanism to fold the noodle strip, repeating the above actions.

[0041] The present utility model adopts a noodle strip folding machine with a noodle stacking device 2, and the noodle strip folding machine can move through walking wheels, can be adapted to a variety of different noodle making machines, and can be quickly docked with the noodle making machine. When noodle strip folding is required, move the folding machine and match-connect it with the noodle making equipment. When noodle strip folding is not required, remove the folding machine.

[0042] Embodiment 3

[0043] This embodiment provides a noodle sheet making machine that matches the noodle sheet folding machine described in Embodiment 1 or 2. A noodle sheet cutting knife is provided on the noodle sheet making machine, and a full bin pre-judgment sensor is provided on the noodle sheet folding machine. The signal of the full bin pre-judgment sensor of the receiving device controls the activation of the noodle sheet cutting knife. When the full bin pre-judgment sensor determines that the receiving groove 31 is full, the noodle sheet making machine controls the noodle sheet cutting knife to act and cut the noodle sheet. The full bin pre-judgment sensor can be a weighing sensor that weighs the mass of the contents of the receiving device, or a rotary encoder provided on the driving mechanism. If the full bin pre-judgment sensor is a weighing sensor, its working principle is as described in Embodiment 2. If the full bin pre-judgment sensor is a rotary encoder, the whole machine controller counts the reciprocating times of the noodle sheet guiding mechanism through the rotary encoder. When the predetermined reciprocating times are reached, the whole machine controller sends a signal to the noodle sheet making machine, and the noodle sheet making machine controls the noodle sheet cutting knife to act and cut the noodle sheet.

[0044] It should be noted that after the noodle sheet cutting knife of the noodle sheet making machine cuts the noodle sheet, there is a section of noodle sheet between the noodle sheet making machine and the noodle sheet folding machine that has not been stacked into the receiving groove. Therefore, after the noodle sheet cutting knife cuts the noodle sheet, the driving mechanism of the noodle sheet folding machine will continue to work for a certain period of time. When all the noodle sheets are stacked into the receiving groove and the incoming material sensor 26 does not trigger a signal, the trolley controller then stops the driving mechanism.

[0045] The above are only the preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. For those skilled in the art, the present invention can have various modifications and changes. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present invention shall be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
