Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of food processing equipment, and particularly relates to a drum-type food shaping device. Background Art

[0002] When making some foods, tools for extrusion and discharging are often needed. For example, when making cookies, raw materials such as flour and butter are mixed and stirred to form cookie batter, and then through operations such as extrusion molding, a formed cookie embryo is obtained. After that, the formed cookie embryo is put into an oven for baking, and finally, the finished product of cookies can be obtained.

[0003] In the above-mentioned production process of cookies, the extrusion molding step is usually manually completed. Therefore, after working for a long time, the hands are prone to soreness, resulting in low food shaping efficiency. Summary of the Utility Model

[0004] The utility model provides a drum-type food shaping device, aiming to solve the problem of low food shaping efficiency in the prior art.

[0005] To solve the above technical problems, the technical solution adopted by the utility model is as follows:

[0006] A drum-type food shaping device includes a frame, and a shaping component is arranged on the frame;

[0007] The shaping component includes a shaping roller set, the shaping roller set includes a driving roller, a driven roller, and a driving mechanism for driving the driving roller and the driven roller. The driven roller is located below the driving roller, and a shaping groove is arranged on the driven roller. The driving roller presses the food materials into the shaping groove;

[0008] A guide for guiding the food output from the shaping groove is further arranged on the frame. The food in the shaping groove falls onto the guide under the action of gravity, and the food falling onto the guide slides into a conveyor under the action of its own gravity;

[0009] A chip removal hole is arranged on the guide.

[0010] Further improved scheme: The chip removal hole penetrates through the guide, and the chip removal holes are uniformly distributed on the guide.

[0011] Based on the above technical solution: The design of the chip removal hole enables the timely discharge of redundant materials generated during the production process, avoiding the entry of redundant materials into the conveyor. By timely removing impurities, it can ensure that the produced food products do not contain unnecessary components, thereby guaranteeing the purity and quality of the products.

[0012] Further improved scheme: The shape of the chip removal hole is strip-shaped.

[0013] Based on the above technical solution: The long strip-shaped chip discharge hole has a larger opening area compared to a circular or other shape, which helps to more efficiently remove the excess materials or impurities generated during the production process. The larger opening area can reduce the risk of blockage and ensure that the materials can flow out smoothly.

[0014] Further improved solution: The cross-sectional shape of the guide is arc-shaped, and the guide is coaxially arranged with the driven roller.

[0015] Based on the above technical solution: The guide may be used to guide the flow direction of the materials to ensure that the materials can enter the conveyor along a predetermined path. The arc-shaped design helps the materials to maintain a stable flow state during the guiding process.

[0016] Further improved solution: The driving mechanism includes a motor installed on the frame, a driving gear is arranged on the driving roller, a driven gear meshing with the driving gear is arranged on the driven roller, the driving roller is driven by the motor, and the lower end of the guide is fixed on the frame.

[0017] Based on the above technical solution: The characteristics of gear transmission are accurate transmission ratio, stable transmission, and high efficiency. This transmission method can ensure that the equipment maintains a stable speed and torque output during operation. Components such as the motor, driving roller, driven roller, and guide are all installed on the frame, making the entire driving mechanism compact in structure and small in floor area. This design not only saves space resources but also helps to improve the overall stability and reliability of the equipment.

[0018] Further improved solution: An upper scraping knife for scraping the materials adhered to the driving roller is also arranged on the frame.

[0019] Based on the above technical solution: The main function of the upper scraping knife is to periodically or continuously scrape the materials adhered to the driving roller. These materials may be formed due to the viscosity of the materials themselves, residues during the processing, or accumulation after the equipment has been running for a long time. Through the scraping action of the upper scraping knife, the surface of the driving roller can be kept clean, preventing the accumulation and hardening of materials and ensuring the normal operation of the equipment.

[0020] Further improved solution: A first material receiving box for receiving the materials scraped by the upper scraping knife is arranged on the frame.

[0021] Based on the above technical solution: The upper scraping knife periodically or continuously scrapes the materials adhered to the driving roller, and these scraped materials directly fall into the first material receiving box, thus avoiding the accumulation of materials on the equipment.

[0022] Further improved solution: A lower scraping knife for scraping the materials adhered to the driven roller is also arranged on the frame.

[0023] Based on the above technical solution: The main function of the lower scraper is corresponding to that of the upper scraper, and it is specifically used to scrape off the materials adhered to the surface of the driven roller. These materials may also be formed due to the viscosity of the materials, processing residues, or accumulation during long-term operation. The lower scraper can work regularly or continuously to ensure the cleanliness of the surface of the driven roller.

[0024] Further improved solution: A second material receiving box for receiving the materials scraped off by the lower scraper is further provided on the frame.

[0025] Based on the above technical solution: The lower scraper scrapes off the materials adhered to the driven roller regularly or continuously, and these scraped-off materials directly fall into the second material receiving box, thus avoiding the accumulation of materials on the equipment.

[0026] Further improved solution: Both the upper scraper and the lower scraper are fixed to the frame by screws.

[0027] Based on the above technical solution: As a fastening element, the screw has high mechanical strength and reliable locking ability. By reasonably selecting and arranging the screws, it can ensure the stable fixation of the upper scraper and the lower scraper on the frame, preventing loosening or falling off during the working process. The screw fixing method is easy to operate and does not require complex tools and equipment. The operator only needs to use simple tools such as a screwdriver or a wrench to complete the installation process. This greatly reduces the installation difficulty and time cost.

[0028] The beneficial effects of the present utility model are as follows:

[0029] Through the design of the shaping roller group and the driving mechanism, the present utility model realizes the rapid and uniform shaping of food materials. Compared with the traditional manual or simple mechanical shaping methods, the drum-type food shaping device significantly improves the shaping efficiency. The design of the shaping groove ensures that the food materials can be evenly stressed during the pressing process, so as to obtain shaped products with consistent shapes and accurate dimensions. This helps to improve the overall quality and market competitiveness of the products. The chip removal hole design on the guide ensures the timely removal of excess materials or impurities generated during the shaping process. The chip removal hole design effectively removes the waste materials and impurities during the shaping process, reducing the equipment downtime for cleaning caused by the accumulation of waste materials. By replacing the shaping grooves with different shapes, the device can be applied to the shaping requirements of various foods, and has high flexibility and versatility. Description of the Drawings
