When performing the stacked cake operation, the first cylinder 18 is activated to push the limiting rod 19 downward to accurately limit the position of the material, ensuring the accuracy of the stacked cake operation. At the top of the left side of the connecting plate 7, a second connecting frame 9 is fixedly connected. At the bottom of the second connecting frame 9, a second cylinder 20 is fixedly connected. At the bottom of the second cylinder 20, a pressing plate 21 is fixedly connected. After the cakes are stacked, the second cylinder 20 pushes the pressing plate 21 downward to press the cakes firmly.

[0036] Driving components: At the outer walls of the front and rear ends on the left side of the support plate 1, connecting frames 14 are fixedly connected. At the rear end of the front support plate 1, uniformly distributed first motors 13 are fixedly connected. At the output end of the first motor 13, a rotating shaft 12 is fixedly connected. On the outer wall of the rotating shaft 12, uniformly distributed rotating rods 11 are fixedly connected. During operation, when the first motor 13 on the left side is started, the first motor 13 drives the rotating shaft 12 to rotate, causing the rotating rods 11 to rotate from left to right to fold the cakes placed on the first conveyor belt 5; then the first motor 13 on the right side drives the rotating shaft 12 to rotate, causing the rotating rods 11 to rotate from right to left; then through the first motor 13 in the middle section, the rotating shaft 12 and the rotating rods 11 are driven to rotate from left to right to further fold the cakes. At the outer walls of the front and rear ends on the right side of the connecting plate 7, second motors 17 are fixedly connected. At the output end of the second motor 17, a rotating shaft 16 is fixedly connected. On the outer wall of the rotating shaft 16, uniformly distributed swinging rods 15 are fixedly connected. The second motor 17 drives the rotating shaft 16 and the swinging rods 15 to rotate, and the swinging rods 15 at the front and rear ends rotate relative to each other to stack the folded cakes neatly.

[0037] Carrying and conveying components: At the top of the left side of the base 2, a carrying box 10 is fixedly connected. The carrying box 10 is used to store the finally stacked and pressed cakes. At the front and rear ends of the carrying box 10, third motors 23 are fixedly connected. At the output end of the third motor 23, a rotating disk 22 is fixedly connected. After the cakes are stacked and pressed, the third motor 23 drives the rotating disks 22 at both ends to rotate downward, causing the cakes to fall into the carrying box z, completing the stacking.

[0038] Cleaning component composition: A cleaning component is provided on the right side of the base 2. The cleaning component includes a connecting plate 3, which is fixedly connected to the tops of the front and rear ends on the right side of the base 2. A placement plate 4 is fixedly connected to the middle of the connecting plate 3, and the placement plate 4 is used to place the cakes to be processed. A fourth motor 32 is fixedly connected to the inside of the rear end of the front connecting plate 3, and the output end of the fourth motor 32 is fixedly connected to a driving pulley 24. A rotating rod 27 is rotatably connected to the inside of the left side of the connecting plate 3. An outer ring of the front end of the rotating rod 27 is fixedly connected to a driven pulley 26, and a belt 25 is provided between the driving pulley 24 and the driven pulley 26. When the fourth motor 32 is started, it drives the driving pulley 24 to rotate, and the driving pulley 24 drives the driven pulley 26 to rotate through the belt 25, thereby causing the rotating rod 27 to rotate.

Cleaning wheels 31 are fixedly connected to the outer rings of both the rotating column 30 and the rotating rod 27. During the rotation of the rotating rod 27 and the rotating column 30, the cleaning wheels 31 clean the surface of the material (cake) placed on the placement plate 4, adhering impurities and debris, preventing impurities from entering the key components inside the equipment, and improving the quality of the cake.

[0040] Working principle: Place the cake on the placement board 4. Start the fourth motor 32 to drive the rotation of the driving pulley 24. The driving pulley 24 drives the rotation of the driven pulley 26 through the belt 25, and then drives the rotation of the rotating rod 27. The driving gear 28 at the rear end of the rotating rod 27 rotates accordingly, and the driving gear 28 drives the rotation of the driven gear 29 to make the rotating column 30 rotate. During the rotation of the cleaning wheels 31 on the outer circles of the rotating rod 27 and the rotating column 30, the surface of the material is cleaned, and impurities and debris are adhered, ensuring the normal operation of the equipment and the quality of the product. Then it is conveyed through the first conveyor belt 5. Start the first motor 13 on the left side. The first motor 13 drives the rotation of the rotating shaft 12 to make the rotating rod 11 rotate, rotating from left to right to fold the cake in half. Then drive the rotation of the rotating shaft 13 through the first motor 13 on the right side, so that the rotating rod 11 rotates from right to left. Then drive the rotation of the rotating shaft 13 and the rotating rod 11 through the first motor 13 in the middle section, rotating from left to right and folding again. The folded cake is conveyed by the second conveyor belt 6 to the connection frame 14. Start the first cylinder 18 to push the limit rod 19 to move downward to accurately limit the position of the material. Drive the rotation of the rotating shaft 16 and the swing rod 15 through the third motor 17. The swing rods 15 at the front and rear ends rotate relatively to stack the cakes. The second conveyor belt 6 conveys the stacked cakes to the rotating disk 22. Push the extrusion plate 21 downward through the second cylinder 20 to extrude the cake. Then drive the rotation of the rotating disks 22 at both ends downward through the third motor 23, so that the cake falls into the bearing box 10 and the stacking is completed.
