Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of dietary production technology, and in particular to a nutritional dietary forming equipment. Background Technology

[0002] Nutritional diets have a wide range of applications and a very promising future. In the clinical medical field, they are used for patient rehabilitation and health maintenance. Specially designed nutritional meals can help control and prevent diseases such as diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and digestive system diseases. The applications of nutritional diets are broad and their development prospects are optimistic. In the future, with technological advancements and increased health awareness, nutritional diets will play an even more important role in improving people's quality of life and health.

[0003] In existing technologies, the forming process of nutritional foods, such as block foods, typically involves dividing dough into small pieces, known as "dividings." Workers then need to press these dividings to reduce their thickness and expand them. This process is crucial for subsequent trimming and baking. However, in current production processes, pressing these dividings often relies on manual operation. This not only requires considerable physical exertion but also, due to the difficulty in precisely controlling the force, easily leads to inconsistencies in thickness between the dividings, with some even being missed. This uneven processing directly causes difficulties in subsequent forming processes, affecting the overall quality of the block foods. Furthermore, the low efficiency and high labor intensity of manual operation make workers prone to fatigue, thus impacting production efficiency and the company's economic benefits. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by proposing a nutritional meal forming device.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model adopts the following technical solution: a nutritional meal forming device, comprising an assembly frame, a worktable fixed to the top of the assembly frame, a feed channel for the feed agent provided on the top of the worktable, a conveyor belt provided on the top of the worktable, force-gathering feet fixed to the bottom of the assembly frame, a mounting base fixed to the top of the worktable, a platform fixed to the top of the mounting base, a rotating plate fixed to the top of the platform, a Y-shaped groove formed on the surface of the rotating plate, a groove variable shaft slidably connected to the inner wall of the Y-shaped groove, a reversing plate fixed to one end of the groove variable shaft, a pressing plate fixed to the bottom of the reversing plate, a rotating rod fixed to one side of the reversing plate, and a limiting plate fixed to the top of the platform, the surface of the limiting plate having... The L-shaped channel has its inner wall slidably connected to the circumference of the fixing rod. An installation groove is provided on the top of the worktable, and a starting cylinder is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the installation groove. A shaft plate is fixed to the output end of the starting cylinder, and one side of the shaft plate is rotatably connected to one end of the fixing rod. In the prior art, in the production process of nutritional foods such as block foods, the forming step usually involves dividing the dough into small pieces, known as "dividings." Subsequently, workers need to press these dividings forcefully to reduce their thickness and expand them. This process is crucial for subsequent trimming and baking processes. However, in current production processes, the pressing of these dividings often relies on manual operation by workers, which requires considerable physical exertion. Furthermore, due to the difficulty in precisely controlling the pressure, inconsistencies in the thickness of the dough pieces are easily caused, and some pieces may even be missed and not pressed. This uneven processing directly leads to difficulties in subsequent forming processes, affecting the overall quality of the block food. In addition, the low efficiency and high labor intensity of manual operation also make workers prone to fatigue, thus affecting production efficiency and the company's economic benefits. To address these problems, this utility model adopts a method of installing a pressing plate. When production begins, the dough pieces reach the conveyor belt through the dough piece discharge channel. At the same time, the operator activates the starting cylinder. When the starting cylinder retracts, it pulls the rotating rod, causing the inverted T-shaped plate to move along the Y-shaped channel parallel to the ground, and finally enter the shortest slot of the Y-shaped channel. Subsequently, due to... The continued pulling of the starting cylinder, along with the restriction of the rotating rod by the L-shaped channel, causes the inverted T-plate to rotate around the axis of the shortest groove in the Y-shaped channel. The inverted T-plate eventually becomes perpendicular to the ground. As the starting cylinder pulls, the inverted T-plate and the pressure plate continue downwards, pressing the powder. Then, the starting cylinder pushes the rod outwards, causing the inverted T-plate and pressure plate to rise. They can extend partially and then retract, causing the inverted T-plate to reciprocate continuously in the direction perpendicular to the ground within the L-shaped channel, rapidly pressing the powder up and down. When the operator needs to check the pressure plate or apply dry flour to it, the starting cylinder is pushed outwards completely again, bringing the pressure plate back to parallel with the ground. This facilitates operation, improving work efficiency and enhancing the user experience.

[0006] Preferably, a foot pad is fixed to the bottom of the force-gathering foot, and a groove is formed at the bottom of the foot pad. A buffer spring is fixed to the inner wall of the groove, and a rough pad is fixed to the bottom of the buffer spring. The side of the rough pad is slidably connected to the inner wall of the groove. In the prior art, when the equipment is continuously pressing the agent, vibration is inevitably generated due to the movement of the cylinder and other components. Vibration can easily cause the equipment feet to damage the ground, and at the same time increase the noise generated by the collision between the equipment and the ground, resulting in a reduced experience for the staff. To address this problem, this utility model solves the problem by installing a foot pad. When the equipment vibrates, the force-gathering foot presses the foot pad, causing it to continuously compress and stretch the buffer spring. Due to the inherent resistance effect and characteristics of the buffer spring, the vibration is converted into elastic potential energy. When the buffer spring releases its elastic potential energy, both the side of the rough pad and the inner wall of the groove have a large coefficient of friction. The sliding between the two is prevented by the large friction force, thereby converting the elastic potential energy into internal energy, achieving the effect of improving the user experience and reducing the impact of vibration.

[0007] Preferably, a triangular fastener is fixed to the bottom of the mounting base, and the bottom of the triangular fastener is fixed to the top of the workbench. In the prior art, in the automated production line of nutritional dietary agents, the components need to move rapidly during the repeated pressing of the agents. This continuous displacement causes the center of gravity of the equipment to change continuously, thus causing a series of stability problems. In particular, when the working components of the equipment move, the change in their center of gravity causes the mounting base to wobble and vibrate unstablely. These actions will intensify as production continues, posing a challenge to the stable operation of the equipment. Since the wobbling and vibration of the base are continuous, this will have a significant impact on the connection between the equipment and the top of the workbench. Over time, the parts originally used to fix the equipment will gradually loosen due to the vibration, resulting in a weakening or even failure of the fixing effect. Once the fastener falls off, it will not only affect the normal operation of the equipment, but also cause more serious mechanical failures, and even threaten the safety of the workers. To address this problem, this utility model uses a triangular fastener to solve the problem, thereby strengthening the connection between the mounting base and the top of the workbench by the triangular fastener, thus greatly increasing the fixing effect and improving the service life of the equipment.

[0008] Preferably, the bottom of the rough pad is fixed with a raised bottom pad to increase the contact area with the ground, thereby reducing pressure and preventing scratches on the ground.

[0009] Preferably, a gap buffer elliptical pad is fixed on the top of the base pad to provide cushioning, reduce noise and impact, and improve the service life of the equipment.

[0010] Preferably, the bottom of the padding surface is provided with a cross-shaped anti-slip groove to increase friction, prevent equipment from slipping, and improve equipment stability.

[0011] Preferably, both the inner wall ends of the L-shaped channel and the inner wall ends of the Y-shaped channel are rounded to reduce the impact of collisions on the components at the channel ends and improve the service life of the equipment.

[0012] Beneficial effects:

[0013] 1. In existing technologies, the forming process of nutritional foods, such as block foods, typically involves dividing dough into small pieces, known as "divided portions." These portions are then pressed to reduce their thickness and expand them. This process is crucial for subsequent trimming and baking. However, in current production processes, pressing these portions often relies on manual operation, requiring considerable physical exertion. Furthermore, the difficulty in precisely controlling the pressure easily leads to inconsistent thicknesses between portions, with some portions even being missed. This unevenness directly hinders subsequent forming processes, affecting the overall quality of the block food. In addition, the low efficiency and high labor intensity of manual operation cause worker fatigue, further impacting production efficiency and the company's economic benefits. To address these issues, this invention employs a pressing plate, allowing the portions to be fed through a feeding channel at the start of production. Upon reaching the conveyor belt, the operator simultaneously activates the starting cylinder. As the cylinder retracts, it pulls the locking rod, causing the inverted T-plate's channel axis to move along the Y-shaped channel parallel to the ground, eventually entering the shortest slot of the Y-shaped channel. Subsequently, due to the continued pulling of the starting cylinder and the restriction of the locking rod by the L-shaped channel, the inverted T-plate rotates around the channel axis in the shortest slot of the Y-shaped channel, eventually becoming perpendicular to the ground. As the starting cylinder pulls, the inverted T-plate and the pressing plate continue downwards, pressing the powder. Then, the starting cylinder pushes the rod outwards, causing the inverted T-plate and the pressing plate to rise. It can extend partially and then retract, causing the inverted T-plate to continuously reciprocate in the direction perpendicular to the ground within the L-shaped channel, rapidly pressing the powder up and down. When the operator needs to check the pressing plate or apply dry flour to it, the starting cylinder is pushed outwards completely again, bringing the pressing plate back to parallel to the ground. This facilitates operator operation, improving work efficiency and enhancing the user experience.

[0014] 2. In existing technology, when the equipment is continuously pressing the agent, vibration is inevitably generated due to the movement of the cylinder and other components. This vibration can easily cause the equipment's support legs to damage the ground, and also increases the noise generated by the collision between the equipment and the ground, resulting in a reduced experience for the workers. To address this problem, this utility model solves the issue by installing foot pads. When the equipment vibrates, the concentrated force foot presses on the foot pads, causing them to continuously compress and stretch the buffer springs. Due to the inherent resistance effect and characteristics of the buffer springs, the vibration is converted into elastic potential energy. When the buffer springs release their elastic potential energy, the rough pad side and the inner wall of the slot have a large coefficient of friction. The sliding between the two is prevented by the large frictional force, thereby converting the elastic potential energy into internal energy, achieving the effect of improving the user experience and reducing the impact of vibration.

[0015] 3. In existing technologies, in automated production lines for nutritional dietary supplements, components need to move rapidly during repeated pressing of the supplements. This continuous displacement causes a continuous change in the equipment's center of gravity, leading to a series of stability issues. In particular, when the working components of the equipment move, the shift in their center of gravity causes unstable swaying and vibration of the mounting base. These actions intensify as production continues, posing a challenge to the stable operation of the equipment. Since the swaying and vibration of the base are continuous, this significantly affects the connection between the equipment and the top of the workbench. Over time, the parts originally used to fix the equipment will gradually loosen due to the vibration, resulting in a weakening or even failure of the fixing effect. Once the fixing parts fall off, it will not only affect the normal operation of the equipment but also cause more serious mechanical failures and even threaten the safety of the workers. To address these problems, this utility model uses a triangular fixing component to solve the problem. This component reinforces the connection between the mounting base and the top of the workbench, greatly increasing the fixing effect and extending the service life of the equipment.

However, the following embodiments are merely preferred embodiments of this utility model and not all of them. Other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments described in the implementation plan without creative effort are all within the protection scope of this utility model.

[0025] The specific embodiments of this utility model are described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Specific implementation examples:

[0027] Reference Figure 1-6A nutritional meal forming device includes an assembly frame 1, a worktable 101 fixed to the top of the assembly frame 1, a feed channel 103 provided on the top of the worktable 101, a conveyor belt 102 provided on the top of the worktable 101, a force-gathering foot 104 fixed to the bottom of the assembly frame 1, a mounting base 2 fixed to the top of the worktable 101, a platform 201 fixed to the top of the mounting base 2, a rotating plate 202 fixed to the top of the platform 201, a Y-shaped channel 203 formed on the surface of the rotating plate 202, a channel variable shaft 2012 slidably connected to the inner wall of the Y-shaped channel 203, a reversing plate 2010 fixed to one end of the channel variable shaft 2012, a pressing plate 2011 fixed to the bottom of the reversing plate 2010, and a rotating rod 209 fixed to one side of the reversing plate 2010. A limiting plate 204 is fixed to the top of the platform 201. An L-shaped groove 205 is formed on the surface of the limiting plate 204. The inner wall of the L-shaped groove 205 is slidably connected to the circumference of the fixing rod 209. An installation groove 206 is formed on the top of the workbench 101. A starting cylinder 207 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the installation groove 206. A shaft plate 208 is fixed to the output end of the starting cylinder 207. One side of the shaft plate 208 is rotatably connected to one end of the fixing rod 209. In the production process of nutritious foods such as block foods, the forming step usually involves dividing the dough into small pieces, known as "divided portions." Subsequently, workers need to press these divided portions forcefully to reduce their thickness and allow them to expand. This process is crucial for subsequent trimming and baking processes. However, in the current production process, the pressing of dough pieces often relies on manual operation by workers. This not only requires workers to exert considerable physical strength, but also, due to the difficulty in precisely controlling the force, easily leads to inconsistencies in the thickness of the dough pieces, and some pieces may even be missed and not pressed. This uneven processing directly leads to difficulties in subsequent forming processes, affecting the overall quality of the block food. In addition, the low efficiency and high labor intensity of manual operation also make workers prone to fatigue, thus affecting production efficiency and the company's economic benefits. The solution adopted is to install a pressing plate 2011, which enables the dough pieces to reach the conveyor belt 102 through the dough piece feeding channel 103 when production begins. At the same time, the operator activates the starting cylinder 207. When the starting cylinder 207 retracts... Pulling the fixed rod 209 causes the channel variable shaft 2012 of the inverted T-plate 2010 to move along the groove of the Y-shaped channel 203 parallel to the ground, and finally enter the shortest groove of the Y-shaped channel 203. Subsequently, due to the continued pulling of the starting cylinder 207 and the restriction of the fixed rod 209 by the L-shaped channel 205, the inverted T-plate 2010 rotates about the channel variable shaft 2012 in the shortest groove of the Y-shaped channel 203 as the axis, and the inverted T-plate 2010 finally becomes perpendicular to the ground. As the starting cylinder 207 pulls, the inverted T-plate 2010 and the pressure plate 2011 continue to move downward. After pressing the agent, the starting cylinder 207 pushes the rod outward, causing the inverted T-plate 2010 and the pressure plate 2011 to rise, allowing for incomplete extension and further retraction.The T-shaped plate 2010 moves back and forth continuously in the direction perpendicular to the ground in the L-shaped channel 205, quickly pressing the agent up and down. When the staff needs to check the pressing plate 2011 or apply dry flour to the pressing plate 2011, the starting cylinder 207 is pushed out completely again, so that the pressing plate 2011 is parallel to the ground again, which facilitates the operation of the staff and achieves the effect of improving work efficiency and user experience. A triangular fastener 4 is fixed to the bottom of the mounting base 2. The bottom of the triangular fastener 4 is fixed to the top of the workbench 101. In the automated production line of nutritional dietary supplements, the components need to move rapidly during the repeated pressing of the supplements. This continuous displacement causes the center of gravity of the equipment to change continuously, which leads to a series of stability problems. In particular, when the working components of the equipment move, the change in the center of gravity causes the mounting base 2 to wobble and vibrate unstablely. These actions will intensify as production continues, posing a challenge to the stable operation of the equipment. Since the wobbling and vibration of the base are continuous, this will have a significant impact on the connection between the equipment and the top of the workbench 101. Over time, the parts originally used to fix the equipment will gradually loosen due to the vibration, which will weaken or even fail the fixing effect. Once the fastener falls off, it will not only affect the normal operation of the equipment, but also cause more serious mechanical failures, and even threaten the safety of the workers. The triangular fastener 4 is used to solve this problem. It strengthens the connection between the mounting base 2 and the top of the workbench 101 by reinforcing the connection between the mounting base 2 and the top of the workbench 101, thereby greatly increasing the fixing effect and improving the service life of the equipment. Both the inner wall ends of the L-shaped channel 205 and the inner wall ends of the Y-shaped channel 203 are rounded to reduce the impact of component collisions at the channel ends and improve the service life of the equipment.

[0028] The bottom of the force-gathering foot 104 is fixed with a foot pad 3. The bottom of the foot pad 3 has a groove 301. A buffer spring 303 is fixed to the inner wall of the groove 301. A rough pad 302 is fixed to the bottom of the buffer spring 303. The side of the rough pad 302 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the groove 301. When the equipment continuously presses the agent, vibration is inevitably generated due to the movement of the cylinder and other components. Vibration can easily cause the equipment feet to damage the ground and increase the noise generated by the collision between the equipment and the ground, resulting in a reduced experience for the staff. The foot pad 3 is used to solve this problem. When the equipment vibrates, the force-gathering foot 104 presses the foot pad 3, which continuously compresses and stretches the buffer spring 303. Due to the inherent resistance effect and characteristics of the buffer spring 303, the vibration is converted into elastic potential energy. When the buffer spring 303 releases its elastic potential energy, the side of the rough pad 302 and the inner wall of the groove 301 have a large coefficient of friction. The sliding between the two is prevented by the large friction force, thereby converting the elastic potential energy into internal energy, achieving the effect of improving the user experience and reducing the impact of vibration. The bottom of the rough pad 302 is fixed with an increased surface area pad 304 to increase the contact area with the ground, thereby reducing pressure and preventing scratches on the ground. A gap buffer oval pad 305 is fixed to the top of the increased surface area pad 304 to provide cushioning, reduce noise and impact, and improve equipment lifespan. The bottom of the increased surface area pad 304 has a cross-shaped anti-slip groove to increase friction, prevent equipment slippage, and improve equipment stability.

[0029] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: When production begins, the agent reaches the conveyor belt 102 through the agent feeding channel 103. Simultaneously, the operator activates the starting cylinder 207. When the starting cylinder 207 retracts, it pulls the fixed rod 209, causing the channel variable shaft 2012 of the inverted T-plate 2010 to move along the groove of the Y-shaped channel 203 parallel to the ground, eventually entering the shortest groove of the Y-shaped channel 203. Subsequently, due to the continued pulling of the starting cylinder 207 and the restriction of the fixed rod 209 by the L-shaped channel 205, the inverted T-plate 2010 rotates around the channel variable shaft 2012 in the shortest groove of the Y-shaped channel 203, and the inverted T-plate 2010... Finally, perpendicular to the ground, as the starting cylinder 207 pulls the inverted T-plate 2010 and the pressing plate 2011 downwards, pressing the powder, the starting cylinder 207 pushes the rod outwards, causing the inverted T-plate 2010 and the pressing plate 2011 to rise. They can be partially extended and then retracted, causing the inverted T-plate 2010 to move back and forth continuously in the direction perpendicular to the ground in the L-shaped channel 205, quickly pressing the powder up and down. When the staff needs to check the pressing plate 2011 or apply dry flour to the pressing plate 2011, the starting cylinder 207 is pushed outwards completely again, so that the pressing plate 2011 is parallel to the ground again, making it easier for the staff to operate.
