Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of mooncake production equipment, in particular to a surface imprinting device for making mooncakes. Background Art

[0002] Mooncakes, also known as moon cakes, small cakes, harvest cakes, reunion cakes, etc., are one of China's traditional delicacies. Mooncakes are integrated with local food customs to develop Cantonese, Shanxi, Beijing, Su, Chaozhou, Yunnan and other mooncakes. Mooncakes symbolize reunion, and people regard them as festival food, use them to worship the moon and give them to relatives and friends.

[0003] At present, the production methods of moon cakes are divided into manual and mechanical processing. In the production process of moon cakes, it is necessary to print patterns on the surface of the moon cakes. The existing moon cake processing stamping device, such as the published Chinese patent application, publication number: CN216533519U, patent name: A servo-driven stamping mechanism for moon cake processing, although the existing technology is used in conjunction with a conveyor, a first stamping plate, a second stamping plate, a motor, an L-shaped rotating rod, a push rod, a connecting plate, a slide plate, and a telescopic rod, so that the motor uses the L-shaped rotating rod, the push rod, the connecting plate, and the slide plate to slide in the inclined groove, and then the slide block is used in conjunction with the gear block, the gear, and the telescopic rod, so that the gear block drives the first stamping plate to rotate to the top of the first stamping groove and the second stamping plate to the top of the moon cake through the gear and the telescopic rod, and then the motor is used in conjunction with the L-shaped rotating rod, the push rod, the connecting plate, and the slide plate. The second stamping plate is driven downward by the L-shaped rotating rod, the push rod, the connecting plate, and the telescopic rod to print on the moon cake. At the same time, the first stamping plate moves downward and is inserted into the interior of the first stamping groove. The connecting plate also causes the slider to slide vertically inside the second vertical groove through the slide plate. The connecting plate moves upward through the telescopic rod to drive the second stamping plate to move upward and separate from the moon cake and drive the first stamping plate to separate from the interior of the first stamping groove. At the same time, the connecting plate drives the slider through the second vertical groove to enter the interior of the inclined groove through the slide plate, so that the slider drives the gear to rotate in the opposite direction through the gear block. The reverse rotation of the gear drives the telescopic rod to rotate in the opposite direction. The reverse rotation of the telescopic rod not only drives the first stamping plate to move directly above the conveyor, but also drives the second stamping plate to move directly above the second stamping groove, thereby completing the purpose of lifting and rotating the first and second stamping plates. However, during use, this existing technology requires a separate instrument to rotate the stamping onto the moon cake, and then a separate instrument pushes the stamping plate down to print the moon cake, and then rises again after printing is completed. This process is relatively cumbersome and does not simultaneously complete the printing functions of rotation and lifting, thereby causing the device to consume a lot of energy and increase production costs.

[0021] See also Figures 1 to 2 The present invention provides a technical solution: a surface stamping device for making mooncakes, comprising a base 1 and a workbench 3. The base 1 is provided with a groove 16. The workbench 3 is rotatably mounted on the base 1 and positioned at the groove 16. The upper surface of the workbench 3 is provided with a plurality of stamping grooves 2 for molding mooncakes. A lower pressing plate 4 is disposed within the stamping grooves 2 of the workbench 3. A servo motor 9 is fixedly mounted on the lower surface of the base 1. The output shaft end of the servo motor 9 is in transmission connection with the workbench 3. A support frame 5 is fixedly connected to the base 1 and located on one side of the workbench 3. An electric cylinder 6 is disposed on the support frame 5. An upper pressing plate 7 is disposed on the output shaft of the electric cylinder 6. The lower surface of the upper pressing plate 7 is engraved with a pattern for printing and molding mooncakes. The upper pressing plate 7 corresponds to the stamping grooves 2 on the workbench 3 in an upper and lower direction. At least one drive assembly is disposed within the groove 16 of the base 1, and the drive assembly is in transmission connection with the lower pressing plate 4.

[0022] The individual grooves 16 on the workbench 3 are used to hold mooncakes, and the workbench 3 rotates to move the mooncakes. A servo motor 9 drives the workbench 3 in rotation. A support frame 5 supports and secures an electric cylinder 6. This drives the upper pressing plate 7 upward and downward. When the upper pressing plate 7 descends, it presses the mooncakes within the grooves 16, forming the pattern on the mooncakes' surfaces. The drive assembly drives the lower pressing plate 4 upward and downward. When the lower pressing plate 4 ascends, it pushes the mooncakes out of the grooves 16.

[0023] Specifically, a rotating shaft 8 is fixedly connected to the center of the lower surface of the workbench 3, the middle part of the rotating shaft 8 passes through the base 1, and the rotating shaft 8 is rotatably connected to the base 1, and the lower end of the rotating shaft 8 is coaxially fixedly connected to the output shaft end of the servo motor 9.

[0024] The servo motor 9 is used to drive the workbench 3 to rotate. After the servo motor 9 is started, the output shaft of the servo motor 9 drives the rotating shaft 8 to rotate, and the rotating shaft 8 drives the workbench 3 to rotate.

[0025] More specifically, the drive assembly includes a gear 10, an inner ring gear 12, and a screw 11. The inner ring gear 12 is fixedly mounted in a groove 16 of the base 1. The teeth of the gear 10 mesh with the teeth of the inner ring gear 12, and the gear 10 is mounted on the outer wall of the lower end of the screw 11. The gear 10 is fixedly connected to the screw 11. The middle portion of the screw 11 passes through the workbench 3. The outer surface of the screw 11 is engraved with a reciprocating thread, and the screw 11 is rotatably connected to the workbench 3 via the reciprocating thread. The screw 11 moves up and down on the workbench 3 by rotation. The upper end of the screw 11 is rotatably connected to the lower surface of the lower pressure plate 4.

[0026] When the workbench 3 rotates, it drives the gear 10 around the shaft 8 via the screw 11. Here, the gear 10 and screw 11 are in orbital revolution. Because the gear 10 meshes with the inner ring gear 12, the gear 10 rotates around the screw 11. Here, the gear 10 is in autorotation. This autorotation of the gear 10 drives the screw 11 in its own rotation. This rotation, influenced by the reciprocating thread, causes the screw 11 to rise and fall on the workbench 3. This rise and fall of the screw 11 pushes the lower platen 4 upward and downward.

[0027] Specifically, a control board 15 is provided on the base 1 , and the control board 15 is respectively connected to the servo motor 9 and the electric cylinder 6 for control.

[0028] The control board 15 is used to control the start and stop of the servo motor 9 and the electric cylinder 6. The control board 15 adopts a single chip microcomputer and an editable logic control program. The control board 15 is internally equipped with a logic control program and a timing control program.

[0029] When in use, the mooncake to be stamped is placed above the lower pressing plate 4, and the control board 15 controls the servo motor 9 to start. The output shaft of the servo motor 9 causes the rotating shaft 8 to rotate 90 degrees counterclockwise, and the workbench 3 rotates 90 degrees counterclockwise along the axis of the rotating shaft 8.

[0030] The control board 15 controls the servo motor 9 to turn off, and the control board 15 controls the electric cylinder 6 to start. The output shaft of the electric cylinder 6 extends to move the upper pressure plate 7 downward to facilitate the imprinting of the moon cake surface; when the imprinting of the moon cake surface is completed, the control board 15 controls the output shaft of the electric cylinder 6 to retract, and the output shaft of the electric cylinder 6 moves the upper pressure plate 7 upward to facilitate subsequent imprinting operations.

[0031] After the workbench 3 rotates, it drives the gear 10 around the rotating shaft 8 via the screw 11. Here, the gear 10 and screw 11 are in orbital revolution. Because the gear 10 meshes with the inner ring gear 12, the gear 10 rotates around the screw 11. Here, the gear 10 is in autorotation. As the gear 10 rotates, it drives the screw 11 to rotate. As the screw 11 rotates, it is affected by the reciprocating thread, causing the screw 11 to rise and fall on the workbench 3. As the screw 11 rises, it pushes the lower pressure plate 4 up and down. When the lower pressure plate 4 rises, it pushes the mooncake upward, removing it from the pressing groove 2.

[0032] The above is only a preferred specific implementation method of the present invention, but the protection scope of the present invention is not limited to this. Any technician familiar with the technical field within the technical scope disclosed by the present invention can make equivalent replacements or changes based on the technical solution and utility model concept of the present invention, which should be covered by the protection scope of the present invention.
