[0030] Such as Figure 1 And Figure 2As shown in the figure, an egg tray production device includes a frame 1. A forming assembly is rotatably arranged on the frame 1. The forming assembly includes a rotating shaft 9. A working disk 10 is fixedly arranged on the rotating shaft 9. There are two working disks 10, and the two working disks 10 are arranged in parallel. A forming mold 11 is fixedly arranged on the working disk 10. The forming mold 11 is provided with a groove adapted to the shape of the egg tray. The forming mold 11 is fixedly arranged between the two working disks 10. There are multiple forming molds 11, and the multiple forming molds 11 are evenly arranged along the circumferential direction. A power assembly is further arranged on the frame 1. The power assembly is connected to the forming assembly and is used to drive the forming assembly to rotate. The power assembly includes a motor 13 and a speed reducer 14. Both the motor 13 and the speed reducer 14 are fixedly arranged on the frame 1. The motor 13 and the speed reducer 14 are in transmission connection. The motor 13 drives the speed reducer 14 to move. The speed reducer 14 is in transmission connection with the rotating shaft 9. The movement of the speed reducer 14 can drive the rotating shaft 9 to rotate, so as to drive the forming mold 11 to rotate for pulp suction; A gas distribution disk 18 is fixedly arranged on the frame 1. Multiple water suction pipes 2 are fixedly arranged on the gas distribution disk 18. A blowing pipe 3 is also fixedly arranged on the gas distribution disk 18. A connecting disk 4 is rotatably arranged in the gas distribution disk 18. Multiple connecting pipes 5 are fixedly arranged on the connecting disk. The other end of the connecting pipe 5 passes through the working disk 10 and is connected to the forming mold 11. During the rotation of the connecting disk 4, the connecting pipe 5 can coincide with the water suction pipe 2 or the blowing pipe 3; In the present invention, during the production of the egg tray, the rotating shaft 9 drives the forming mold 11 to rotate, and pulp can be sucked, and the pulp liquid is adhered to the forming mold 11. Since the pulp liquid contains a large amount of water at this time, it is necessary to remove the water to accelerate the subsequent drying speed. During the process of removing the water, as the forming mold 11 rotates, when the connecting pipe 5 coincides with the water suction pipe 2, the water suction pipe 2 can extract the water in the pulp liquid in the forming mold 11 through the connecting pipe 5, so that the water in the pulp liquid is reduced, thereby enhancing the strength and hardness of the egg tray. As the forming mold 11 continues to rotate, when the connecting pipe 5 coincides with the blowing pipe 3, the blowing pipe 3 blows air into the connecting pipe 5 to blow out the egg tray in the forming mold 11, preventing the egg tray from adhering to the forming mold 11. The egg tray falling from the forming mold 11 enters the drying box for drying. Since the water in the egg tray pulp is reduced, it can be quickly dried, the drying speed is increased, and thus the production efficiency is improved.

[0031] It should be noted that in the present utility model, there are eight groups of the forming molds 11, and the eight groups of the forming molds 11 are evenly arranged along the circumferential direction. The working disk 10 has a regular octagon structure. Each group of the forming molds 11 is fixedly connected to one side edge of the working disk 10. And there are also eight connecting pipes 5. Each connecting pipe is connected to a group of forming molds respectively. There are six water suction pipes 2 and one air blowing pipe 3. The air distribution disk 18 is evenly arranged into eight regions along the circumferential direction. One water suction pipe 2 is arranged in each of six regions, one air blowing pipe 3 is arranged in another region, and no pipe fittings are arranged in the last region. The last region without any pipe fittings is located in the next region of the air blowing pipe 3. As the connecting pipe 5 rotates, when the connecting pipe 5 rotates to be connected to the water suction pipe 2, water is pumped. When the connecting pipe 5 rotates to be connected to the air blowing pipe 3, air is blown to blow the egg tray out of the forming mold 11. When the connecting pipe 5 is not connected to either the air blowing pipe 3 or the water suction pipe 2, since the connecting pipe 5 has just been connected to the air blowing pipe 3 to blow the egg tray out, at this time, the forming mold 11 can suck the pulp, adhere the pulp to the forming mold 11, and manufacture the next egg tray. By continuously repeating the above operations, the production of egg trays can be continuously carried out.

[0032] Furthermore, the forming mold 11 is provided with a forming cavity and a vacuum cavity. The forming cavity is provided with a groove adapted to the shape of the egg tray. The vacuum cavity is communicated with the forming cavity. The connecting pipe 5 is communicated with the vacuum cavity. When pumping water, the connecting pipe 5 can pump the moisture of the pulp in the forming cavity into the vacuum cavity and discharge it from the connecting pipe 5.

[0033] Furthermore, as Figure 3As shown, the air distribution plate 18 includes a fixed sleeve 6, which is fixedly connected to the frame 1. A rotation hole 7 is provided on the fixed sleeve 6, and the rotation hole 7 penetrates through the fixed sleeve 6. The rotation hole 7 is coaxially arranged with the rotation shaft 9. One end of the fixed sleeve 6 away from the forming assembly is fixedly provided with a fixed disk 8, and a bearing is arranged on the fixed disk 8. One end of the rotation shaft 9 is connected to the bearing on the fixed disk 8, so that the rotation shaft 9 can rotate on the fixed disk 8. The water suction pipe 2 and the air blowing pipe 3 are both arranged on the fixed disk 8. One ends of the water suction pipe 2 and the air blowing pipe 3 are flush with the end face of the fixed disk 8 close to the fixed sleeve 6. The connecting disk 4 is rotatably arranged in the rotation hole 7, and the rotation shaft 9 is fixedly connected to the connecting disk 4. The connecting pipe 5 is fixedly connected to the connecting disk 4. One end of the connecting pipe 5 is flush with the end face of the connecting disk 4 close to the fixed disk 8. The connecting disk 4 is in close contact with the fixed disk 8 to avoid air leakage. The connecting disk 4 is made of copper, which can avoid corrosion and reduce wear, and extend the service life. The position of the connecting pipe 5 corresponds to the positions of the water suction pipe 2 and the air blowing pipe 3. Therefore, during the rotation of the connecting disk 4, the connecting pipe 5 can be communicated with the water suction pipe 2 and the air blowing pipe 3.

[0034] Furthermore, a protection disk 17 is rotatably arranged in the rotation hole 7. The protection disk 17 is located at one end of the fixed sleeve 6 close to the forming assembly. The rotation shaft 9 and the connecting pipe 5 penetrate through the protection disk 17, and the protection disk 17 can prevent impurities from entering the rotation hole 7.

[0035] Furthermore, an air storage tank 12 is fixedly arranged on the frame 1. The air storage tank 12 is connected to an air compressor, and the air compressor can blow compressed air into the air storage tank 12 so that a large amount of gas is stored in the air storage tank 12. The air storage tank 12 is connected to the air blowing pipe 3. An electromagnetic valve is arranged on the air blowing pipe 3. When the air blowing pipe 3 is communicated with the connecting pipe 5, the electromagnetic valve is opened to blow the air in the air storage tank 12 into the connecting pipe 5 to blow out the egg trays in the forming die 11, preventing the egg trays from adhering to the forming die 11.

[0036] Furthermore, one end of the water suction pipe 2 away from the air distribution plate 18 is connected to a water suction pump. Since there are six water suction pipes 2, the six water suction pipes 2 can be connected to a main pipe, and the main pipe is communicated with the water suction pump. After the water suction pipe 2 is communicated with the connecting pipe 5, the water suction pump can suck the water in the pulp on the forming die 11 through the water suction pipe 2 and the connecting pipe 5.

[0037] Furthermore, a dividing box 15 is provided between the reduction gearbox 14 and the rotating shaft 9. A first pulley is fixedly arranged on the output shaft of the motor 13, and a second pulley is fixedly arranged on the input shaft of the reduction gearbox 14. The first pulley and the second pulley are connected by a belt. A driving gear is arranged on the output shaft of the reduction gearbox 14, and a driven gear is arranged on the input shaft of the dividing box 15. The driving gear and the driven gear are meshed with each other to achieve transmission. The output shaft of the reduction gearbox 14 and the rotating shaft are connected by a coupling. Therefore, the motor 13 drives the reduction gearbox 14 to move, thereby driving the dividing box 15 to rotate. The dividing box 15 then drives the rotating shaft 9 to rotate. The dividing box 15 can be a purchased part on the market. The dividing box 15 can accurately control the rotation accuracy of the forming die 11 and make the forming die 11 rotate intermittently.

[0038] Furthermore, a pulp tank 16 is fixedly arranged on the frame 1. The pulp tank 16 is located below the forming die 11. A large amount of pulp liquid is contained in the pulp tank 16. The forming die 11 can be immersed in the pulp tank 16 so that the pulp liquid adheres to the forming die 11 to manufacture the egg tray.

[0039] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention, rather than to limit them; although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those of ordinary skill in the art should understand that they can still modify the technical solutions recorded in the foregoing embodiments, or perform equivalent replacements for some of the technical features; and these modifications or replacements do not make the essence of the corresponding technical solutions deviate from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention.
