Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of food processing machinery, and particularly relates to a pancake peeling structure for a full-automatic pancake machine. Background Technique

[0002] Full-automatic pancake machines are widely used in modern food processing and can efficiently produce various pancakes. However, after the pancakes are made, peeling the pancakes from the heating plate is a key step. The existing pancake peeling structures usually peel the pancakes from one side. Although this unilateral peeling method can separate the pancakes from the heating plate, it often causes damage to the edge areas of the pancakes. This problem is more obvious especially when the pancakes are thinner or the edges are crisper.

[0003] Regarding the above technical problems, for example, Chinese Patent No. CN 219556129 U discloses a pancake peeling structure for a full-automatic manual imitation pancake machine, which includes a pneumatic lifting device, a pneumatic clamping device, and a stroke bracket. It adopts a pancake peeling structure that uses a bottom clamping piece and a moving clamping piece to clamp the pancakes. However, the unilateral pancake peeling causes uneven stress on the pancakes during the peeling process. Especially when the pancakes are larger, local overstress is likely to occur, resulting in deformation of the pancake shape. Therefore, we propose a pancake peeling structure for a full-automatic pancake machine. Summary of the Utility Model

[0004] In order to solve the technical problems existing in the above-mentioned prior art, the utility model provides a pancake peeling structure for a full-automatic pancake machine.

[0005] To achieve the above object, the utility model provides the following technical solution: A pancake peeling structure for a full-automatic pancake machine includes a mounting frame erected above a rotating griddle. Two symmetrically arranged lifting frames are slidably assembled horizontally below the mounting frame, and a peeling plate is slidably assembled vertically on the lifting frames; a lifting plate is slidably assembled vertically on the upper edge area of the rotating griddle. In the initial state, the upper end surface of the lifting plate is flush with the upper end surface of the rotating griddle; in the horizontal direction, the two peeling plates perform a straight-line movement of approaching the rotating griddle synchronously to peel the pancakes on the upper end surface of the rotating griddle, and at the same time, in the vertical direction, the peeling plate moves from a position below the upper end surface of the rotating griddle to above the rotating griddle.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the utility model provides a pancake-opening structure for a fully automatic pancake machine, which has the following beneficial effects:

[0013] (1) The pancake-lifting action is achieved by setting two lifting plates to move synchronously toward the rotating griddle, and the pancake is lifted from both sides at the same time, so that the pancake is evenly stressed during the lifting process, reducing the risk of edge damage.

[0014] (2) By setting a lifting plate in conjunction with the lifting plate, the pancake can be inserted below the edge of the pancake, ensuring that the pancake lifting process starts from the center of the pancake instead of directly from the fragile edge area, further reducing the possibility of edge damage.

[0015] (3) The composite movement of the lifting plate in the horizontal and vertical directions is driven by the same power source, which reduces the manufacturing cost.

[0016] (4) The double-sided synchronous pancake removal not only reduces the damage to the pancakes, but also increases the speed of removing the pancakes, allowing the fully automatic pancake machine to work more efficiently and improve production efficiency. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

Specific Embodiments

[0025] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present utility model, rather than all the embodiments. Usually, the components of the embodiments of the present utility model described and shown in the accompanying drawings here can be arranged and designed in various different configurations. Therefore, the following detailed description of the embodiments of the present utility model provided in the accompanying drawings is not intended to limit the scope of the present utility model to be protected, but only represents the selected embodiments of the present utility model. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative efforts belong to the scope of protection of the present utility model.

[0026] This embodiment provides a pancake uncovering structure for a fully automatic pancake machine, as Figures 1 to 6As shown in the figure, it includes a mounting frame 2 installed above the rotating griddle 1. Two symmetrically arranged pancake-lifting plates 3 are slidably assembled horizontally below the mounting frame 2. The pancake-lifting plates 3 are flush with the upper end surface of the rotating griddle 1. Horizontally, the two pancake-lifting plates 3 perform a linear motion of approaching the rotating griddle 1 synchronously to perform the pancake-lifting operation on the pancake on the upper end surface of the rotating griddle 1. By performing the pancake-lifting operation on the pancake in two directions simultaneously, the pancake-lifting efficiency is improved.

[0027] On the basis of the above solution, when the pancake-lifting plate 3 contacts the pancake, it may cause damage to the edge area of the pancake. Therefore, by contacting the bottom of the edge of the pancake with the pancake-lifting plate 3, the edge of the pancake is lifted to minimize the damage to the edge area of the pancake. Specifically, two symmetrically arranged lifting frames 5 are slidably assembled horizontally below the mounting frame 2. The pancake-lifting plate 3 is slidably assembled vertically on the lifting frame 5; a lifting plate 12 is slidably assembled vertically on the upper edge area of the rotating griddle 1. In the initial state, the upper end surface of the lifting plate 12 is flush with the upper end surface of the rotating griddle 1; vertically, the pancake-lifting plate 3 moves from a position below the upper end surface of the rotating griddle 1 to above the rotating griddle 1. Specifically, when performing the pancake-lifting operation, the pancake-lifting plate 3 presses down the lifting plate 12, causing the lifting plate 12 to move to a position below the upper end surface of the rotating griddle 1, creating a gap between the lifting plate 12 and the pancake. At this time, the pancake-lifting plate 3 is below the edge of the pancake. Subsequently, the pancake-lifting plate 3 moves upward to a position flush with the upper end surface of the rotating griddle 1. Horizontally, the pancake-lifting plate 3 performs a linear motion in the direction of the center of the rotating griddle 1, causing the pancake-lifting plate 3 to gradually penetrate into the center of the pancake, separating the pancake from the rotating griddle 1 completely. Finally, the pancake-lifting plate 3 moves upward synchronously in the vertical direction to lift the pancake above the rotating griddle 1, completing the pancake-lifting operation.

[0028] Specifically, a lifting groove 11 starts from the upper edge area of the rotating griddle 1 and extends to the outer circumferential surface of the rotating griddle 1. The lifting plate 12 is slidably assembled in the lifting groove 11 in the vertical direction, and a spring 13 is installed between the lifting plate 12 and the bottom wall of the lifting groove 11. In the initial state, the lifting plate 12 is flush with the rotating griddle 1. When the pancake removing plate 3 contacts the lifting plate 12 and presses the lifting plate 12 downward, the lifting plate 12 moves to a position below the upper end surface of the rotating griddle 1. At this time, the pancake removing plate 3 is located below the edge area of the pancake. In this embodiment, in order for the pancake removing plate 3 to move smoothly from the lifting groove 11 to the upper end surface of the rotating griddle 1, the lifting plate 12 is slidably assembled in the lifting groove 11 along the inclined direction close to the central area of the rotating griddle 1. The end surfaces of the lifting groove 11 and the lifting plate 12 close to the center of the rotating griddle 1 are inclined surfaces. The inclined surfaces guide the pancake removing plate 3 to move from the lifting groove 11 to the upper end surface of the rotating griddle 1, improving the smoothness of the movement of the pancake removing plate 3. It should be noted that when removing the pancake, the rotating griddle 1 may still be in a rotating state. In order to ensure that the horizontal portion 31 can still move from the lifting groove 11 to the upper end surface of the rotating griddle 1 when the rotating griddle 1 is in a rotating state, the width of the lifting plate 12 is designed to be much larger than the width of the horizontal portion 31, reserving sufficient time for the horizontal portion 31 to move in the horizontal direction.

[0029] As a preferred embodiment, the lifting frame 5 includes a U-shaped plate 51, the upper end of the U-shaped plate 51 is slidably assembled on the transverse guide rail 4 through a slider, the transverse guide rail 4 is fixedly installed on the mounting frame 2 along the horizontal direction, and a vertical guide rod 52 is installed in the U-shaped plate 51 along the vertical direction; the lifting plate 3 includes a horizontal portion 31, and a connecting plate 33 is installed at the end of the horizontal portion 31 away from the rotating griddle 1, and the connecting plate 33 is slidably sleeved on the vertical guide rod 52, and a connecting rod 34 is installed at the upper end of the vertical guide rod 52, and a guide rod 35 is installed at the upper end of the connecting rod 34; guide plates 9 are provided on both sides of the guide rod 35, and the guide plates 9 are fixedly installed on the mounting frame 2, and the front end of the guide plate 9 has a front-to-back penetration The guide groove is connected to the first high-level portion 91, the first descending portion 92, the first ascending portion 93, the low-level portion 94, the second ascending portion 95 and the second high-level portion 96, the first high-level portion 91 is located on the outer side away from the rotating griddle 1, the second high-level portion 96 is located on the inner side close to the rotating griddle 1, the first high-level portion 91 and the second high-level portion 96 are located on the same horizontal line, the first descending portion 92 is inclined, and the end away from the first high-level portion 91 is located below the low-level portion 94, and the low-level portion 94 is located below the first high-level portion 91 and is horizontally arranged. In the initial state, the guide rod 35 is located at the head end of the first high-level portion 91. At this time, the lift plate 3 is located above and outside the lifting plate 12. When the guide rod 35 moves from the first high-level portion 91 to the first descending portion 92, the lift plate 3 moves toward the lifting plate 12 in the horizontal and vertical directions until it comes into contact with the lifting plate 12. When the guide rod 35 moves to the end of the first descending portion 92, the lift plate 3 just presses the lifting plate 12 to below the upper end surface of the rotating griddle 1. At this time, the lift plate 3 is located below the edge area of ​​the pancake. When the guide rod 35 moves to the head end of the low horizontal portion 94 through the first rising portion 93, the lifting plate 3 just moves to a position flush with the upper end surface of the rotating griddle 1; when the guide rod 35 moves toward the end of the low horizontal portion 94, in the horizontal direction, the lifting plate 3 makes a linear motion toward the direction close to the center of the rotating griddle 1 to separate the pancake from the rotating griddle 1; when the guide rod 35 moves to the second high horizontal portion 96 through the second rising portion 95, the lifting plate 3 completely lifts the pancake to the top of the rotating griddle 1, waiting for the next process to perform the pancake clamping operation.

[0030] When the lifting plate 3 lifts the pancake, in order to increase the stability of the pancake on the lifting plate 3, we install an inclined portion 32 between the horizontal portion 31 and the connecting plate 33. The middle part of the inclined portion 32 is provided with a downwardly recessed area. When the pancake is located in the recessed area, due to the pancake's own gravity, the middle part of the pancake will be in the recessed area, forming a positioning function to prevent the pancake from shifting on the lifting plate 3.

[0031] As a preferred embodiment, the synchronous relative movement of the two pancake plates 3 in the horizontal direction is realized through the belt component. Specifically, two belt pulleys 6 are installed in the mounting frame 2, and a belt 7 is sleeved between the two belt pulleys 6. The center of one of the belt pulleys 6 is fixedly connected to the motor shaft of the motor 8, and the two U-shaped plates 51 are respectively fixedly connected to both sides of the belt 7. In this embodiment, taking the forward rotation of the motor shaft of the motor 8 as an example: when the motor shaft of the motor 8 rotates forward, both sides of the belt 7 drive the two lifting frames 5 to move relatively closer. During this process, the guide rod 35 is affected by the guide groove and drives the pancake plate 3 to move in the vertical direction, realizing the operation of flipping the pancake.
