[0024] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present utility model without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0025] Please see Figures 1-5This utility model provides a technical solution for an automatic forming machine for cake making: it includes a frame 1 and a working frame 101 fixedly installed on the outer top surface of the frame 1. A connecting shaft 102 is rotatably installed at the center positions of both the front and rear ends of the inner sidewall of the working frame 101. A conveyor belt 103 is rotatably connected to the outer circumferential surfaces of the two connecting shafts 102. A drive assembly 2 for intermittently driving the conveyor belt 103 is provided on the front outer wall of the working frame 101. The drive assembly 2 includes a rotating shaft 201 rotatably installed at the right end of the front outer wall of the working frame 101. The two ends of the two connecting shafts 102 respectively penetrate and extend to the front and rear outer walls of the working frame 101. The rear outer wall of the working frame 101 and located on the outer circumferential surfaces of the two connecting shafts 102 are respectively fixed... A first pulley 202 and a second pulley 203 are fixedly installed, and the first pulley 202 and the second pulley 203 are rotatably connected to each other by a transmission belt 204. An annular disk 205 is fixedly installed on the front outer wall of the working frame 101 and on the outer peripheral surface of one of the connecting shafts 102. The front outer wall of the annular disk 205 has U-shaped grooves 206 distributed in a circular array. A chuck 207 is fixedly installed on the outer peripheral surface of the second rotating shaft 201. A push rod 208 adapted to the U-shaped groove 206 is fixedly installed on the outer outer wall of the chuck 207. A second drive motor 209 is fixedly installed on the front outer wall of the working frame 101 and corresponding to the second rotating shaft 201. The output end of the second drive motor 209 is fixedly connected to the second rotating shaft 201. The drive motor 209 is controlled and started to drive the rotating shaft 201 to rotate the chuck 207. When the chuck 207 rotates, the push rod 208 abuts against the U-shaped groove 206 to drive the annular disk 205 to rotate intermittently. Then, under the connection of the transmission belt 204, the pulley 202 and pulley 203 drive the two connecting shafts 102 to rotate intermittently in the same direction, so that the dough blank on the conveyor belt 103 moves intermittently, thereby achieving the effect of automatic and uniform cutting of the dough blank and improving practicality.

[0026] The work frame 101 has through-hole straight slots 104 at the center of both ends of its outer bottom surface. A rotating shaft 105 is rotatably mounted at the center of the inner sidewall of each slot 104. The work frame 101 has connecting plates 106 at both ends of its outer top surface. A support column 107 is fixedly mounted at the center of the outer top surface of each connecting plate 106. A separation component 3 for automatically and evenly cutting the dough blanks on the conveyor belt 103 is provided on the outer circumferential surface of the two support columns 107. The separation component 3 includes components located between the two support columns 107 and on the conveyor belt 103. The top of the straight plate 301 is located directly above the work frame 101. The top surface of the straight plate 301 has evenly spaced circular holes 302. The top surfaces of the two support columns 107 are bolted together to a horizontal plate 303. Connecting rods 304 are threaded at equal intervals onto the top surface of the horizontal plate 303. One end of each connecting rod 304 passes through the horizontal plate 303, extends into the inner side of the three circular holes 302, and is fixedly fitted with a retaining ring 305. Turntables 306 are fixedly installed at both ends of the outer circumference of the rotating shaft 105, inside the two straight slots 104. A rotating mechanism is rotatably installed at the center of the front outer wall of the work frame 101. The drive shaft 307, straight plate 301, and two connecting plates 106 are fixedly connected to the working frame 101 by bolts. A square plate 308 is slidably sleeved on the outer circumferential surface of the three connecting rods 304. The front and rear outer walls of the square plate 308 are slidably sleeved with two support columns 107 via sliding sleeves 309. Simultaneously, circular rings 310, matching the circular holes 302, are uniformly fixedly connected to the outer bottom surface of the square plate 308, located outside the three connecting rods 304. Round rods 311 are fixedly installed on the opposite outer circumferential surfaces of the two sliding sleeves 309. A circular rod 311 is fixedly installed on the opposite outer wall of the two turntables 306. A second round rod 312 is fixedly installed. The two round rods 311 and 312 are rotatably connected to each other by a vertical plate 313. A gear 314 is fixedly installed on the outer peripheral surface of a rotating shaft 105 with a straight slot 104. One end of a drive shaft 307 extends into the inside of the straight slot 104 and a gear 315 is fixedly installed on its outer peripheral surface. The gear 315 and the gear 314 are meshed. The other end of the drive shaft 307 is fixedly connected to the output end of a drive motor 316 fixedly installed at the center of the front outer wall of the work frame 101.When the conveyor belt 103 intermittently moves the dough blank to directly below the circular hole 302 on the straight plate 301, the drive motor 316 is controlled and started to drive the drive shaft 307 to rotate the gear 315. Under the meshing transmission characteristics of the gears, the gear 314 drives the rotating shaft 105, thereby causing the turntables 306 at both ends of the rotating shaft 105 to rotate in the same direction. This, in turn, causes the circular rod 311 and the vertical plate 313 to drive the circular rod 312, along with the sliding sleeve 309, to slide up and down along the outside of the support column 107, thus allowing the dough blank to move. The plate 308, carrying the ring 310, slides downward along the outside of the connecting rod 304, allowing the ring 310 to automatically cut and shape the dough blank along the inside of the circular hole 302. After cutting, the ring 310 moves upward. At the same time, because the dough blank has a certain degree of adhesion, it will stick to the ring 310 and move upward together. At this time, the retaining ring 305 can block and separate it, avoiding affecting the subsequent cutting effect, improving processing efficiency, reducing the labor intensity of workers, and also avoiding prolonged contact between human hands and dough, which would affect food hygiene.

[0027] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: When in use, the rolled and shaped thin sheet of dough blank is first placed on the conveyor belt 103. Then, the drive motor 209 is started to drive the rotating shaft 201 to drive the chuck 207 to rotate, so that the push rod 208 abuts in the U-shaped groove 206 to drive the annular disk 205 to rotate intermittently. Under the connection of the transmission belt 204, the pulley 202 and the pulley 203 drive the two connecting shafts 102 to rotate synchronously and in the same direction intermittently, so that the dough blank on the conveyor belt 103 is intermittently moved to the position directly below the round hole 302.

[0028] Simultaneously, the start-up drive motor 316 drives the drive shaft 307 to rotate the gear 315. Under the meshing transmission characteristics of the gears, the gear 314 drives the rotating shaft 105, causing the turntables 306 at both ends of the rotating shaft 105 to rotate in the same direction. This causes the round rod 311 and the vertical plate 313 to drive the round rod 312, which carries the sliding sleeve 309, to slide up and down along the outside of the support column 107. This causes the square plate 308 to slide down along the outside of the connecting rod 304 with the ring 310, so that the ring 310 automatically cuts and shapes the dough blank along the inside of the round hole 302. After cutting, the ring 310 moves upward.

[0029] At the same time, because the dough blank has a certain degree of adhesion, it will stick to the ring 310 and move upward together. At this time, the retaining ring 305 can block and separate it, so as to avoid affecting the subsequent cutting effect, improve processing efficiency, reduce the labor intensity of workers, and also avoid prolonged contact between human hands and dough, which would affect food hygiene.

[0030] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various improvements and modifications without departing from the principles of this utility model, and these improvements and modifications should also be considered within the scope of protection of this utility model. Structures, devices, and operating methods not specifically described or explained in this utility model are implemented according to conventional methods in the art, unless otherwise specified or limited.
