[0030] Reference Figures 1 to 4 A matching feeding assembly is applied to a toaster. The toaster includes a conveying assembly 200, on which a claw 210 is provided. The matching feeding assembly includes a mounting frame 410, a loading cylinder 420, and a bread rack 430. The mounting frame 410 is used to install at the toaster's inlet and is positioned above the conveying assembly 200. The loading cylinder 420 is connected to the mounting frame 410 and is used to load bread. The bread rack 430 is connected to the mounting frame 410 and is positioned below the loading cylinder 420. The bread rack 430 has a clearance gap, allowing bread in the loading cylinder 420 to slide onto the bread rack 430. The claw 210 passes through the clearance gap to remove bread from the bread rack 430.
[0031] It should be noted that the toaster includes a toaster body 100, a conveying assembly 200, a heating assembly 300, and a feeding assembly 400. The conveying assembly 200 is driven and installed in the toaster body 100. The heating assembly 300 is installed inside the toaster body 100 and is located below the conveying assembly 200. The heating assembly 300 is used to toast the bread on the conveying assembly 200. The feeding assembly 400 is detachably connected to the toaster body 100 and is used to load bread. During the operation of the conveying assembly 200, the bread in the feeding assembly 400 is carried out. The conveying assembly 200 is used to transport the bread and toast it on the heating assembly 300.
[0032] It should be understood that the baking process is as follows:
[0033] S1, load the bread into the feeding assembly 400, and then install the feeding assembly 400 onto the oven body 100, so that the bread in the bottom layer of the feeding assembly 400 is in a state of waiting to be pulled.
[0034] S2, start the conveying component 200 and the heating component 300. During the cycle operation, the conveying component 200 carries out the bread from the lower layer of the feeding component 400. At this time, the bread in the feeding component 400 slides downward. The bread in the lowermost layer of the feeding component 400 is in a waiting state. The bread that is carried out is baked on the conveying component 200.
[0035] S3, after baking is completed, as the conveying component 200 operates, the bread on the conveying component 200 is carried off and falls, thus discharging the bread.
[0036] By setting up the feeding component 400 and the conveying component 200, automatic feeding can be achieved during baking. The operator only needs to load the bread once, and subsequent feeding does not require manual intervention, which improves the efficiency of the entire baking process. The conveying component 200 circulates the bread, allowing it to move and bake. After baking, the bread is automatically unloaded, avoiding over-baking and burning that can occur with box baking, thus ensuring the baking quality and taste of the bread.
[0037] Reference Figure 1 The furnace body 100 is provided with a furnace cavity 110. The conveying assembly 200 includes a mesh chain, which is driven and connected in the furnace cavity 110. The mesh chain can circulate in the furnace cavity 110. The mesh chain is provided with a claw 210, which is used to remove the bottom layer of bread in the feeding assembly 400. It should be noted that there are two sprocket shafts in the furnace cavity 110. The mesh chain is driven and connected between the two sprocket shafts. The mesh chain has chain buckles on both sides, which are driven and connected to the sprockets of the sprocket shafts.
[0038] Reference Figure 3 and Figure 4The feeding assembly 400 includes a mounting frame 410, a feeding cylinder 420, and a bread preparation rack 430. The mounting frame 410 is used to mount on the oven body 100; the feeding cylinder 420 is connected to the mounting frame 410 and is used to load bread; the bread preparation rack 430 is connected to the mounting frame 410 and is located below the feeding cylinder 420. The bread preparation rack 430 has a clearance gap, and a claw 210 is used to pass through the clearance gap to remove bread from the bread preparation rack 430. The simple structure and detachable design of the feeding component 400 allow it to be produced and sold separately. It is also convenient to remove it for bread installation. It should be understood that the feeding cylinder 420 is cylindrical and has an opening 421 on the side away from the oven cavity 110. The operator can use the opening 421 to move the bread in the feeding cylinder 420. This is to prevent the bread from getting stuck in the feeding cylinder 420 and to clear it in time.
[0039] In some embodiments, several sets of claws 210 are arranged side by side on the mesh chain. Each set of claws 210 includes several claws 210. One set of claws 210 is used to process one row of bread. The number of loading cylinders 420 is set one-to-one with the number of sets of claws 210. The material preparation rack 430 is set one-to-one with the loading cylinders 420. This increases the number of baking threads, increases the number of breads baked in the same batch, and increases baking efficiency. The so-called baking thread refers to the number of breads that can be placed side by side on the circular conveyor route. It is also one baking thread for a piece of bread from loading to unloading.
[0040] Reference Figure 3 The material preparation rack 430 extends into the oven cavity 110. A guide structure 431 is provided at one end of the material preparation rack 430 near the oven cavity 110. The guide structure 431 is used to guide the bread to slide into the conveying assembly 200. The guide structure 431 makes the bread transition smoothly to the conveying assembly 200, avoiding the bread from jumping or shifting when transitioning to the conveying assembly 200. It can be understood that the end of the material preparation rack 430 near the oven cavity 110 is inclined downward so that the end of the material preparation rack 430 near the oven cavity 110 can smoothly transition onto the conveying assembly 200.
[0041] It should be noted that the filling cylinder 420 is inclinedly mounted on the mounting frame 410. The filling cylinder 420 and the mounting frame 410 are integrally formed. The inclined installation of the filling cylinder 420 can balance the weight of the bread, allowing the bread to slide down smoothly. It should be understood that the axis of the filling cylinder 420 forms a predetermined angle α with the plane of the mounting frame 410, where 30°≤α≤60°.
[0042] In some embodiments, the loading cylinder 420 is hinged to the mounting bracket 410. The loading cylinder 420 can be adjusted as needed. The hinge can be a damped hinge or additionally fixed with bolts.
[0043] In step S1, before filling the bread, the inner wall of the filling tube 420 is coated with cooking oil. The sliding performance of the filling tube 420 is tested with a loaf of bread. After the test is passed, several loaves of bread are then filled in.
[0044] It should be noted that the furnace body 100 is provided with a discharge channel 140, which is connected to receive bread dropped by the conveying component 200. The discharge channel 140 is inclined and a suspension bracket 120 is provided on the discharge channel 140 to support the bread sliding. The heating component 300 includes a plurality of heating rods arranged along the conveying direction of the conveying component 200. The heating rods are arranged inside the furnace body 100 and below the conveying component 200. In step S2, the heat output of the plurality of heating rods varies in a decreasing gradient along the conveying direction.
[0045] In some embodiments, a guide rod 130 is provided on the furnace body 100, and a positioning hole 411 is provided on the mounting bracket 410. The guide rod 130 is used to insert into the positioning hole 411, and the mounting bracket 410 is fixed by the positioning hole 411 and the guide rod 130.
[0046] Reference Figure 1 The mounting bracket 410 is also provided with a gripping part 412, which makes it convenient for operators to grip the mounting bracket 410. The gripping part 412 is also provided with a placement groove 413, which is used to place chopsticks or other tools.
[0047] The embodiments of the present utility model have been described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the present utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. Within the scope of knowledge possessed by those skilled in the art, various changes can be made without departing from the spirit of the present utility model.
