At the same time, it is difficult to ensure the consistency of the gluten blocks by manually dividing the gluten. Since the gluten blocks require a certain amount of time to be steamed or fermented, and this time is related to the size of the gluten blocks, gluten blocks of different sizes will also affect the quality of subsequent processing, which is very inconvenient.
[0004] In view of the above problems, a spiral conveying mechanism is now designed. Utility Model Content

[0024] The embodiment of the present application provides a spiral conveying mechanism, which can solve the problem in the related art that manual gluten segmentation is not only time-consuming and labor-intensive, but also has low production efficiency. At the same time, it is difficult to ensure the uniformity of the specifications of the gluten blocks, which affects the quality of subsequent gluten processing.
[0025] See also Figure 1-Figure 3, a screw conveying mechanism, which includes: a base 1, a feeding barrel 2, a feeding assembly 3 and a cutting assembly 4, the feeding barrel 2 is arranged on the base 1, one end of the feeding barrel 2 is provided with a feed hopper 21, the other end of the feeding barrel 2 is provided with a discharge pipe 22, the diameter of the discharge pipe 22 is smaller than the diameter of the feeding barrel 2, the feeding assembly 3 includes a motor 31, a rotating shaft 32 and a feeding auger 33, the rotating shaft 32 is rotatably arranged in the feeding barrel 2, the feeding auger 33 is arranged on the rotating shaft 32, the feeding auger 33 is located in the feeding barrel 2 and cooperates therewith, the motor 31 is arranged on the base 1 and is drivingly connected to the end of the rotating shaft 32;
[0026] The cutting assembly 4 includes a rotating rod 41, a cutter 42, and a transmission assembly 43. The rotating rod 41 is rotatably mounted on the base 1. The cutter 42 is mounted on the rotating rod 41. The cutter 42 corresponds to the lower end of the discharge pipe 22. The transmission assembly 43 is mounted on the base 1 and connected to the rotating rod 41 to drive the rotating rod 41 to rotate.
[0027] In this way, when the gluten needs to be divided into pieces, the staff can put the gluten dough into the feed hopper 21, and then start the motor 31, and the motor 31 drives the feeding auger 33 on the rotating shaft 32 to rotate, so that the gluten dough can be transported by the feeding auger 33, so that the gluten dough can be moved to the next process. When the gluten dough moves into the discharge pipe 22, since the diameter of the discharge pipe 22 is smaller than the feeding cylinder 2, the gluten dough will be squeezed into the discharge pipe 22. When the gluten dough is discharged from the outside of the discharge pipe 22, the gluten dough can be squeezed into The gluten dough is shaped into strips, and then the rotating rod 41 can be driven to rotate by the transmission component 43, so that the cutter 42 can be rotated, so that the extruded gluten strips can be cut by the cutter 42, so that the discharge pipe 22 continuously extrude the gluten dough and can be used in conjunction with the continuously rotating cutter 42 to continuously cut the gluten dough into gluten strips, and ensure the consistency of the specifications of the gluten strips, which not only saves a lot of time and manpower, but also speeds up the production efficiency of gluten, and the consistent specifications of the gluten strips can also ensure the production quality of gluten, and is highly practical.
[0028] Specifically, in this embodiment, the transmission assembly 43 includes a first transmission wheel 431, a second transmission wheel 432, a transmission belt 433, a transmission shaft 434, a first bevel gear 435 and a second bevel gear 436. The transmission shaft 434 is rotatably set on the base 1, the first transmission wheel 431 is sleeved on the rotating shaft 32 and fixedly connected thereto, the second transmission wheel 432 is sleeved on the transmission shaft 434 and fixedly connected thereto, the transmission belt 433 is sleeved on the first transmission wheel 431 and the second transmission wheel 432, the first bevel gear 435 is sleeved on the transmission shaft 434 and fixedly connected thereto, the second bevel gear 436 is sleeved on the rotating rod 41 and fixedly connected thereto, and the second bevel gear 436 is meshed with the first bevel gear 435;
[0029] In this way, when the motor 31 drives the rotating shaft 32 to rotate, the rotating shaft 32 will drive the second transmission wheel 432 and the transmission shaft 434 to rotate through the cooperation of the first transmission wheel 431 and the transmission belt 433. In this way, the transmission shaft 434 will drive the rotating rod 41 to rotate through the meshing transmission of the first bevel gear 435 and the second bevel gear 436. In this way, the feeding auger 33 and the cutter 42 can be driven to rotate at the same time by the motor 31, so that the extrusion and cutting of the gluten dough can be carried out at the same time. This not only saves the driving source and reduces the equipment cost, but also ensures the stability and smoothness of the equipment operation, and is highly practical.
[0030] The end of the feeding cylinder 2 close to the discharge pipe 22 is in a truncated cone shape;
[0031] In this way, the gluten dough can move more smoothly from the feeding barrel 2 to the discharge pipe 22, thereby avoiding the gluten dough from being blocked in the feeding barrel 2 and affecting production efficiency, and the gluten dough is highly practical.
[0032] More specifically, the base 1 includes a bottom plate 11, a platform 12, a lifting assembly 13 and four groups of limiting members 14, the platform 12 is located below the bottom plate 11, the feeding cylinder 2 is provided on the platform 12, and the four groups of limiting members 14 are provided between the bottom plate 11 and the platform 12, the limiting member 14 includes a limiting column 141 and a sleeve 142, the limiting column 141 is provided at the lower end of the platform 12, the sleeve 142 is sleeved on the limiting column 141 and slidably connected thereto, the lower end of the sleeve 142 is fixedly provided on the bottom plate 11, the lifting assembly 13 is provided on the bottom plate 11 and connected to the platform 12 to drive the platform 12 to move closer to or away from the bottom plate 11;
[0033] In this way, when in use, the lifting component 13 can be used to drive the platform 12 to move closer to or away from the base plate 11, thereby driving the platform 12 to move up and down, so that the platform 12 will drive the feeding barrel 2 to move up and down, thereby adjusting the height of the feed hopper 21 and the discharge pipe 22, so that the device can be used in conjunction with equipment of different heights, thereby enhancing the applicability of the device. At the same time, through the cooperative limiting effect of the sliding connection between the limiting column 141 and the sleeve 142, the lifting and lowering of the platform 12 can also be guided, thereby ensuring the stability of the lifting and lowering of the platform 12, avoiding the platform 12 from shifting during the lifting process, and facilitating use.
[0034] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the lifting assembly 13 includes a rack 131, a gear 132, a worm wheel 133, a worm 134, a handle 135 and a fixed tube 136.

[0036] Preferably, a plurality of locking universal wheels 15 are provided at the lower end of the base plate 11;
[0037] In this way, when in use, the platform 12 can be moved by locking the universal wheels 15, thereby facilitating the transportation and transfer of the device, enhancing the flexibility of the device and making it more practical.
