Technical Field:

[0001] This application relates to the technical field of food processing equipment, and particularly to a tofu skin forming machine without a mold basket. Background Art:

[0002] Tofu skin is flat in nature, sweet in taste, and rich in nutrition. It has the advantages of being easy to digest and absorb quickly, and is an excellent food suitable for women, children, the elderly, and the weak.

[0003] The utility model patent with the application number CN200920088892.X - a tofu skin press, which includes a frame, a pressing plate arranged at the top of the frame and driven by a power source to move up and down reciprocally, and a material box carrier arranged at the bottom of the frame; a guide rail frame driven by a driving mechanism to move up and down and a guide rail fixed thereon are arranged around the material box carrier. The advantages of this utility model are to reduce the labor intensity of operators and improve work efficiency. When it is necessary to transport the material box filled with semi - finished tofu skin from the tofu skin machine to the material box carrier, the guide rail frame is lifted through the lever so that the guide rail on it is docked with the guide rail wheels at the bottom of the material box, and then the material box can be easily pushed onto the carrier, and then the guide rail frame is lowered to perform extrusion and dehydration treatment on the semi - finished tofu skin; after the extrusion and dehydration treatment, the material box can be conveniently removed from the tofu skin press through the above - mentioned reverse operation.

[0004] This patent provides a technical solution for automatically transporting tofu skin. However, in this technical solution, a special person is still required to push the material box into the press and pull the material box out of the press after pressing.

[0026] To make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the implementation of the present utility model clearer, the present utility model will now be further described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and the following embodiments, so that the public can better master the implementation method of the present utility model. The specific implementation scheme of the present utility model is as follows:

[0027] A tofu skin forming machine without a mold basket includes a conveyor 1. A collecting device and a pressing mechanism are sequentially connected to the output end of the conveyor 1. The collecting device includes a base 2. One end of the base 2 is connected to the pressing mechanism, and the other end extends below the conveyor 1; a support frame 3 is arranged on the base 2. The support frame 3 is arranged on the upper end surface of the base 2 in a sliding structure manner. On both sides of the upper end surface of the support frame 3, first baffles 4 are arranged in a fixed structure manner along the conveying direction; a pallet 6 is arranged between the two first baffles 4 in a lifting structure manner, and a scissor lift 5 is arranged below the pallet 6; a vertical push plate 10 for pushing the pallet 6 is arranged between the two first baffles 4, and a first cylinder 7 is arranged outside the vertical push plate 10. The vertical push plate 10 is in contact with the pallet 6 to prevent the collected tofu skin from collapsing without restraint; the first cylinder 7 is connected to the support frame 3; the first cylinder 7 can push the pallet 6 into the pressing mechanism; a power device for driving the sliding of the support frame.

[0028] Specifically, through the arrangement of the first cylinder 7 and the support frame 3, the stacked tofu skin is sent into the hydraulic press 11 and then returns automatically, eliminating the need for manual repetitive work such as pushing the material box, reducing the labor intensity of workers and improving work efficiency.

[0029] Furthermore, a linear guide rail 8 is provided on the upper end surface of the base 2. The support frame 3 is connected to the base 2 in a sliding structure manner through the linear guide rail 8. The power device is a second cylinder 9, and both ends of the second cylinder 9 are respectively connected to the support frame 3 and the base 2. The sliding speed of the support frame 3 is consistent with the conveying speed of the conveyor 1, so that the tofu skin can be evenly spread on the pallet 6. The scissor lift 5 can move together with the support frame 3 to ensure the stability of the support for the pallet 6. Through the settings of the linear guide rail 8, the second cylinder 9 and the scissor support frame 3, the support frame 3 can reciprocate along the base 2, and the height of the pallet 6 can be adjusted during the reciprocating movement, so that the tofu skin conveyed by the conveyor 1 can be evenly spread on the pallet 6.

[0030] It should be noted that the pressing mechanism includes a hydraulic press 11 and two second baffles 12. The two second baffles 12 are respectively arranged on both sides of the inner wall of the hydraulic press 11 in a fixed structure manner. The second baffles 12 are arranged in the hydraulic press 11 to prevent the tofu skin from losing restraint and collapsing, so that it is difficult to achieve an ideal pressing effect.

[0031] It should be elaborated that a number of water leakage holes 13 are provided on both the first baffle 4 and the second baffle 12 for heat dissipation and removing the moisture in the tofu skin to maintain the toughness and taste of the tofu skin. And through the settings of the first baffle 4, the second baffle 12 and the pallet 6, the pressing range of the hydraulic press 11 is limited between the baffles. When the collection of the tofu skin is completed, it can be pushed into the hydraulic press 11 for pressing without positioning and without damaging the baffles.

[0032] The working principle and process of the present utility model are as follows:

[0033] Place the pallet 6 on the scissor lift 5, adjust the height of the scissor lift 5 so that the height of the uppermost pallet 6 is slightly lower than the upper end surface of the first baffle 4. Start the conveyor 1, and the tofu skin is conveyed to the output end of the conveyor 1 along with the operation of the conveyor 1, and then slides from the output end of the conveyor 1 onto the pallet 6. At the same time, as the tofu skin slides down, the second cylinder 9 is started, and drives the support frame 3, the first cylinder 7, the vertical push plate 10 and the pallet 6 to make reciprocating movements, so that the falling tofu skin is evenly spread on the pallet 6 layer by layer. And while the support frame 3 and the pallet 6 are making reciprocating movements, the scissor lift 5 also drives the pallet 6 to slowly lower the height until finally, the bottom surface of the pallet 6 is lowered to be parallel to the inner bottom surface of the hydraulic press 11.

[0034] At this time, the second cylinder 9 and the scissor lift 5 stop moving. The first cylinder 7 pushes the pallet 6 and the upper tofu skin through the vertical push plate 10 into the second baffle 12 in the hydraulic press 11. Then the first cylinder 7 is started to drive the vertical push plate 10 to retract, and the hydraulic press is started for pressing.
