The cup body 1011 is connected vertically, and the lower end of the adjustment platform 1012 extends into the cup body 1011. The cup body 1011 is fixed to the bottom of the fixed plate 103. A horizontal plate 104 is fixed to the top of the fixed plate 103. The upper end of the adjustment platform 1012 passes through the horizontal plate 104 and is fixedly connected to the connecting rod assembly. The rounding mechanism 1 is fixed to a square frame 14, and the top of the crank mechanism 2 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the square frame 14. The connecting rod assembly includes a long rod 105 extending left and right and a connecting rod 106. The long rod 105 is fixed with a rack 107 extending vertically at both ends. The connecting rod 106 is installed with a gear 108 meshing with the rack 107 at both ends. One end of the connecting rod 106 is fixedly connected to the height adjustment knob 102, and the upper end of the adjustment platform 1012 is fixedly connected to the long rod 105. After turning the height adjustment knob 102, the connecting rod 106 can be driven to rotate. After the connecting rod 106 rotates, the gear 108 can be driven to rotate. The gear 108 can drive the rack 107 to move up and down, and the long rod 105 can move up and down. The long rod 105 can drive the adjustment platform 1012 to move up and down. The adjustment platform 1012 can move up and down inside the cup body 1011, so the space size inside the cup body 1011 is adjustable, and the space size inside the cup body 1011 can be adjusted according to different dough sizes.
[0020] like Figure 3 、 Figure 4As shown, a support platform 109 is fixed to the other end of the connecting rod 106.

Both pairs of long shafts 3 are secured with bearings 13, which are fixed to the sidewalls of the metal plate 12. After the engine 7 is started, the transmission mechanism drives the long shafts 3, which in turn drive the crank mechanism 2 in a circular motion, which in turn drives the rounding mechanism 1 in a circular motion. The device, which simulates manual dough rolling, is mounted on a dough conveyor. The dough is placed on a conveyor belt, and the inner curved cup 101 wraps around it. The cylinder 11 controls the raising and lowering of the base plate 8, long shafts 3, crank mechanism 2, and rounding mechanism 1.
