[0028] The pouring mechanism 3 includes a material box 31, a feeding valve core 32 is rotatably connected to the bottom of the material box 31, and a driving part 33 for driving the feeding valve core 32 to rotate is arranged on the side of the material box 31.

[0029] The side of the material box 31 is also rotatably connected with a swing arm 34, the lower end of the swing arm 34 is fixedly connected with a support seat 35, and a plurality of plungers 36 matched with the material holes 321 of the feeding valve core 32 are detachably connected to the support seat 35.

[0030] In some embodiments, the cleaning mechanism 2 in the utility model includes two fixed frames 21 fixedly installed on the conveyor table 1, and a connecting plate 22, a frame 23 and a gas distribution plate 24 are sequentially connected from top to bottom between the two fixed frames 21.

[0031] The top of the connecting plate 22 is connected with a plurality of input pipes 25, and the end face of the gas distribution plate 24 is provided with a plurality of air outlets 26.

[0032] Specifically, the input pipe 25 in the embodiment is used to connect an external air source, and in operation, external high-pressure gas enters the inside of the frame 23 through the input pipe 25. The frame 23 is a rectangular frame and is sealed with the connecting plate 22 and the gas distribution plate 24 respectively. After the gas enters, it is discharged through a plurality of gas outlets 26 to blow the forming cavities on the mold plate and ensure that there is no foreign matter in the mold plate.

[0033] Further, the driving member 33 in the embodiment includes a cylinder rotatably connected to the side of the material box 31. An eccentric block is fixedly connected to the shaft end of the feeding valve core 32. The shaft end of the cylinder is pivotally connected to the eccentric block. In the embodiment, the cylinder pushes the eccentric block to rotate to control the rotation of the feeding valve core 32.

[0034] On the basis of the above embodiment, the swing arm 34 in the embodiment is also driven to rotate by a cylinder on the side of the material box 31. The cylinder is used to control the rotation of the swing arm 34 to drive the plungers 36 to be inserted into the inside of the feeding valve core 32 to extrude the raw materials in the material holes 321 outward to complete feeding. The inside of the material box 31 is also provided with a stirring assembly 37. As a preferred, the stirring assembly 37 in the embodiment includes a stirring rod rotatably connected to the material box 31 and a motor fixed to the outside of the material box 31. The motor controls the rotation of the stirring rod to stir the raw materials in the material box 31.

[0035] Further, the end surface of the feeding valve core 32 in the embodiment is formed with a plurality of material holes 321. The material holes 321 are L-shaped structures. The end of the plunger 36 penetrates the material box 31 and is inserted into the inside of the material hole 321.

[0036] That is, in the initial state, the material hole 321 faces the inside of the material box 31. At this time, the swing arm 34 starts to rotate to drive the support seat 35 to move. When the support seat 35 moves, the plungers 36 are driven to move to suck the raw materials in the material box 31 into the material holes 321. When the mold plate moves to the lower side of the feeding valve core 32, the driving member 33 controls the feeding valve core 32 to rotate. At this time, one end of the material hole 321 faces the pouring mold plate, and the other side faces the plunger 36. The plunger 36 moves reversely and is inserted into the material hole 321 of the feeding valve core 32 to extrude the raw materials in the material hole 321 outward, so that the chocolate slurry falls into the forming cavities of the mold plate to complete pouring. Of course, a material distribution plate can be arranged at the bottom of the material box 31 below the feeding valve core 32 to uniformly guide the raw materials to the forming cavities of the mold plate. The specific structure and principle have been disclosed in the prior art, and will not be described here.

[0037] In a preferred embodiment, in order to realize the adjustment of the front and back positions of the plunger 36 and the convenient dismounting of the plunger 36, a plurality of sleeves 38 are threadedly connected to the end face of the support base 35, and the plunger 36 is inserted into the inside of the sleeve 38.

[0038] The outside of the plunger 36 is embedded with a positioning glass bead 39, and the outside face of the sleeve 38 is provided with a hole for clamping the telescopic end of the positioning glass bead 39.

[0039] That is, in the embodiment, the positioning glass bead 39 is clamped to realize the clamping of the sleeve 38, so as to realize the convenient dismounting of the plunger 36. When dismounting, the telescopic end of the positioning glass bead 39 is only pressed to be separated from the hole, so that the plunger 36 can be taken down and replaced and cleaned. Meanwhile, the sleeve 38 is threadedly connected, so as to realize the fine adjustment of the front and back positions of the plunger 36, so as to ensure that the end portions of a plurality of plungers 36 can be on the same plane, thereby improving the convenience of installation.

[0040] It should be noted that the swing arm 34 is in an H-shaped structure, and the two ends thereof are rotatably connected to the support base 35 through the basket bolt 341. Specifically, the distance between the swing arm 34 and the support base 35 is adjusted by the basket bolt 341. Of course, in order to ensure the mutual driving of the swing arm 34 and the support base 35, the two ends of the basket bolt 341 are rotatably connected to the swing arm 34 and the support base 35, respectively.

[0041] In conclusion, in the utility model, the cleaning mechanism 2 is designed, so that the mold plate can be cleaned by blowing before entering the pouring process, so as to avoid the problem that foreign matters in the forming cavity of the mold plate affect the product quality. Secondly, the plunger 36 is detachably connected to the support base 35, so as to realize the convenient replacement and cleaning of the plunger 36. The plunger 36 and the support base 35 are connected through the sleeve 38. The position of the plunger 36 is adjusted by adjusting the front and back positions of the sleeve 38. Thus, the end portions of a plurality of plungers 36 can be on the same plane, thereby improving the convenience and accuracy of installation.

[0042] The above is only a preferred specific embodiment of the utility model, but the protection scope of the utility model is not limited to this. Any person skilled in the art can make equivalent replacement or change according to the technical scheme and the utility model concept of the utility model within the technical range disclosed by the utility model, which should be covered in the protection scope of the utility model.
