[0002] Gummy candy is a functional candy that is soft, elastic and tough, mainly made of ingredients such as gelatin and syrup. 4D gummy candy usually refers to gummy candy with a three-dimensional (3D) shape and a delicious taste. During the processing and production of gummy candy, multiple steps are performed, and the gelatinous sugar liquid is injected into a mold plate with different shapes and textures. It is then cooled and formed into 4D gummy candy with elasticity and a chewy feel.

[0003] Nowadays, when making soft candies, the prepared syrup is generally poured into a mold through a pouring gun by a pouring machine, and the syrup in the mold is blown by a cooling fan to accelerate the cooling and solidification of the syrup to form the shape of the soft candy. However, after the syrup solidifies in the mold to form the soft candy, it needs to be demolded from the mold to take out the candy, and the candy needs to be dug out manually when demolding. Since a large number of soft candies are produced during the production process, manual material extraction not only slows down the processing of the soft candy, but also increases the labor intensity of the workers, is time-consuming and labor-intensive, and greatly reduces the production efficiency of the soft candy.

[0019] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0020] The utility model provides Figure 1-3 A model device for making 4D soft candy is shown, comprising:

[0021] A frame 1 is provided with a conveyor belt 2 provided on its surface. A chassis 3 is mounted on the surface of the conveyor belt 2. A raw material box 4 for holding gummi candy raw materials is provided on top of the chassis 3. A discharge pipe 5 is provided at the center of the top of the chassis 3. One end of the discharge pipe 5 is connected to the raw material box 4, and the other end is connected to a pouring box 6. A mold assembly 7 for making gummi candies is provided on the surface of the conveyor belt 2. The gummi candy raw materials in the raw material box 4 are poured into the surface of a mold plate 8 of the mold assembly 7 through the pouring box 6. The gummi candy raw materials are formed into gummi candies in the contoured grooves 9 on the surface of the mold plate 8. The cooled gummi candies are then pushed out of the mold by a push plate 10 in the contoured grooves 9.

[0022] The model assembly 7 includes a cylinder 11 and a top plate 12. The model plates 8 are provided in several groups and are evenly distributed on the surface of the conveyor belt 2. The cylinder 11 is provided in the model plate 8 and the piston rod of the cylinder 11 is connected to the top plate 12.

[0023] The two ends of the top plate 12 are respectively slidably connected to the surface of the guide rod 13 provided in the model plate 8. The surface of the top plate 12 is connected to the push plate 10 in the profiling groove 9 after the top rod slides through the model plate 8. The moving direction of the top plate 12 can be guided by the guide rod 13 to enhance the stability of the movement of the top plate 12.

[0024] The bottom of the pouring box 6 is connected to a plurality of pouring tubes 14. The surfaces of the discharge pipe 5 and the pouring tube 14 are both provided with a metering pump 15. The bottom of the pouring tube 14 is connected to a pouring gun 16. The metering pump 15 can pump a certain amount of colloid liquid into the pouring gun 16, so that the pouring gun 16 injects the colloid liquid into the profiling groove 9.

[0025] The raw material box 4 is rotatably connected with a stirring rod 17, and the bottom of the stirring rod 17 extends into the discharge pipe 5. The surface of the stirring rod 17 is connected with a stirring blade 18, and one end located in the discharge pipe 5 is connected with a material-dispersing blade 22. A motor 19 is provided on the top of the raw material box 4, and the output shaft of the motor 19 passes through the raw material box 4 and is driven and connected to the stirring rod 17. The output shaft of the motor 19 is sealed with a sealed bearing at the point where it passes through the raw material box 4. The stirring rod 17 drives the stirring blade 18 to rotate to stir the colloid sugar liquid in the raw material box 4, so that the colloid sugar liquid is evenly mixed, and the material-dispersing blade 22 located in the discharge pipe 5 will rotate with the stirring rod 17. When the material is discharged from the discharge pipe 5, the colloid sugar liquid in the discharge pipe 5 is stirred by the material-dispersing blade 22, and the colloid sugar liquid is unblocked and assisted in the discharge, thereby avoiding the colloid sugar liquid from being blocked when it is discharged from the discharge pipe 5.

[0026] A collecting trough 20 is provided at the bottom of the chassis 3, through which the soft candies in the profiling groove 9 can be collected. A cooling fan 21 is connected to one side of the chassis 3 through a fixing plate. When the air blown by the cooling fan 21 blows toward the surface of the jelly candy liquid in the profiling groove 9, the cooling and solidification of the jelly candy liquid can be accelerated.

[0027] The model device used for making 4D soft candy starts the conveyor belt 2 and pours the syrupy colloid liquid formed by boiling into the raw material box 4, and pumps the colloid liquid in the raw material box 4 into the pouring box 6 through the quantitative pump 15 on the surface of the discharge pipe 5, and starts the quantitative pump 15 on the surface of the pouring pipe 14 at the bottom of the pouring box 6 to pump the colloid liquid in the pouring box 6 into the pouring gun 16, so that the colloid liquid is injected into the model plate 8 and the profiling groove 9 through the pouring gun 16. The conveyor belt 2 drives the model plates 8 on the surface to move, so that the colloid liquid can be injected into multiple groups of model plates 8 in sequence. After the colloid liquid is injected, the model plates 8 move toward one end of the cooling fan 21, and the wind blown by the cooling fan 21 accelerates the cooling and solidification of the colloid liquid in the profiling groove 9 into soft candy, thereby completing the production of the soft candy. In addition, a plurality of model plates 8 are provided on the surface of the conveyor belt 2, thereby speeding up the production speed.

[0028] When discharging through the discharge pipe 5, the motor 19 can be started, and the output shaft of the motor 19 drives the stirring rod 17 to rotate, and the stirring rod 17 drives the stirring blade 18 to rotate to stir the colloid sugar liquid in the raw material box 4. During the stirring process, the colloid sugar liquid is evenly mixed, reducing the uneven discharge concentration caused by local excessively high or low concentration.

[0029] When the surface of the mold plate 8 gradually cools and solidifies into soft candy, it moves to the collecting tank 20 under the continuous conveyance of the conveyor belt 2, and the cylinder 11 in the mold plate 8 located at the top of the collecting tank 20 is started to work. The piston rod of the cylinder 11 pushes the top plate 12 to move, and the push plate 10 is lifted up by the top plate 12 to move. The push plate 10 in the profiling groove 9 pushes the cooled and solidified soft candy in the profiling groove 9 when moving, and pushes the soft candy out of the profiling groove 9, so that the soft candy in the profiling groove 9 falls into the collecting tank 20, and is collected by the collecting tank 20, making it more convenient and quick to demould the soft candy, thereby greatly improving the production efficiency of the soft candy.

[0030] In the present invention, an external pipe 23 with a shutoff valve 24 is reserved on the side of the upper end of the raw material tank 4. When discharging / unloading the material through the discharge pipe 5, the external pipe 23 can be connected to an air compressor pump. The air compressor pump can apply appropriate or required pressure to the raw material tank 4, thereby assisting the colloid sugar liquid in the raw material tank 4 to pass through the discharge pipe 5 and the pouring gun 16 and ultimately fall into the profiling tank 9. Of course, after the device is shut down, when cleaning the raw material tank 4 and the pouring gun 16, the external pipe 23 can also be connected to a high-pressure water pump to flush the raw material tank 4 through the external pipe 23. The shutoff valve 24 ensures that the medium passing through the external pipe 23 can only flow from the outside of the raw material tank 4 to the inside of the raw material tank 4.

[0031] Finally, it should be noted that the above is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the aforementioned embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the aforementioned embodiments or make equivalent replacements for some of the technical features therein. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the scope of protection of the present invention.
