Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative labor fall within the protection scope of the utility model.

[0027] Drive assembly 3 drives movable plate 14 to translate when lifting plate 22 drops, so that it corresponds with the nozzle of fixed plate 13, and drive assembly 3 drives movable plate 14 to translate when lifting plate 22 rises, so that it is staggered with the nozzle of fixed plate 13;

[0028] Drive assembly 3 includes drive plate 31 fixed in the lower end of lifting plate 22 side, two drive notches 34 are formed in drive plate 31, and the upper end and the lower end of drive notch 34 are vertically designed, and the middle part is inclined, and round shaft 32 is attached to the inner wall of drive notch 34, and round shaft 32 is fixedly connected on the side wall of movable plate 14.

[0029] The above, through the design of the driving assembly 3, the movable plate 14 and the fixed plate 13, the movable plate 14 and the fixed plate 13 are staggered in the initial state, that is, the two pipe mouths are staggered, when pouring, the chocolate mold is placed on the top of the conveying belt 11 for transportation, and after being transported to the position below the pouring pipe 23, the electric push rod 21 is started to drive the lifting plate 22 to descend, with the descent of the lifting plate 22, the driving plate 31 also descends, the round shaft 32 moves from the vertical part at the lower end of the driving slot 34 to the inclined part, when the round shaft 32 moves along the inclined part of the driving slot 34, the movable plate 14 will slide along the slide of the fixed plate 13, until the pipe mouth of the movable plate 14 completely overlaps the pipe mouth of the fixed plate 13, and the movable plate 14 overlaps the fixed plate 13, at this time, the pouring pipe 23 is located above the pipe mouth of the movable plate 14, and at the same time, the round shaft 32 moves from the inclined part of the driving slot 34 to the vertical part at the upper end, at this time, the descent of the driving slot 34 cannot drive the displacement of the round shaft 32 and the movable plate 14, then continue to descend, the pouring pipe 23 just passes through the two aligned pipe mouths, and the chocolate liquid can flow out of the pouring pipe 23 through the control of the electromagnetic valve pipe, and is accurately poured into the mold, and after pouring is completed, the electric push rod 21 is started again to drive the lifting plate 22 and the pouring pipe 23 at the bottom thereof to ascend. With the ascent of the lifting plate 22, the driving plate 31 also ascends, the round shaft 32 moves reversely along the inclined part of the driving slot 34, and drives the movable plate 14 to slide back to the initial position, that is, to the staggered state with the pipe mouth of the fixed plate 13, to prepare for the next pouring, so that the movable plate 14 is staggered with the pipe mouth of the fixed plate 13 during the non-pouring period, thereby effectively avoiding the dripping phenomenon, and secondly, manual operation is not required, and the whole process is automatically operated by using a mechanical structure, so that the use is more convenient and the electric energy is saved.

[0030] The upper and lower ends of the driving slot 34 are adhered with rubber blocks 33, and the two rubber blocks 33 are respectively attached to the round shaft 32 in the pouring state and the initial state.

[0031] Further, when the round shaft 32 moves to the terminal ends of the upper and lower ends of the driving slot 34, the collision force can be effectively reduced through the collision contact with the rubber blocks 33, and a protection effect is provided.

[0032] Embodiment two, see Figures 2-3 , and Figures 5-7 , the top of the movable plate 14 is uniformly provided with a row of arc-shaped discharge ports at the side of the pipe mouth, the arc-shaped discharge ports are located below the arranged and distributed pouring pipes 23 in the non-pouring state, and one side of the movable plate 14 is provided with an arc-shaped flow channel plate 19 which is connected with the arc-shaped discharge ports;

[0033] A recycling box 17 is arranged on the top of the machine table 1, the recycling box 17 is located below the arc-shaped flow channel plate 19, and limiting plates 16 are arranged on the two sides of the recycling box 17, the bottom of the limiting plates 16 is fixedly connected with the machine table 1, and one side is fixedly connected with the side wall of the support of the conveying belt 11.

[0034] As described above, the second embodiment further optimizes the recycling design of the device. During the pouring process, some chocolate liquid will inevitably drip or overflow. If not properly handled, it will not only cause waste of raw materials, but also cause pollution to the device and the working environment. Therefore, the second embodiment designs an arc-shaped discharge port on the top of the movable plate 14 and installs a butt-jointed arc-shaped flow channel plate 19 on one side of the arc-shaped discharge port to guide the dripping chocolate liquid into the recycling box 17. When the pipe opening of the movable plate 14 is misaligned with the pipe opening of the fixed plate 13 (i.e. in the non-pouring state), the arc-shaped discharge port is located below the arranged and distributed pouring pipes 23 and can receive the chocolate liquid dripping from the pouring pipes 23. The chocolate liquid then flows along the arc-shaped discharge port into the arc-shaped flow channel plate 19 and is finally guided into the recycling box 17, which is very convenient.

[0035] The side wall of the limiting plate 16 is rotationally installed with a stop block 110, which is clamped with a circular block 111 on the outer wall of the recycling box 17, i.e. one side of the stop block 110 is provided with an arc-shaped opening corresponding to the circular block 111.

[0036] In order to prevent the recycling box 17 from being accidentally moved or tilted during the pouring process, the second embodiment further provides a limiting plate 16 on both sides of the recycling box 17, which is clamped with a circular block 111 on the outer wall of the recycling box 17 through the stop block 110, thereby fixing the recycling box 17. In this way, even if a large impact force is generated during the pouring process, the recycling box 17 can remain stable, ensuring the smooth recycling of the chocolate liquid.

[0037] An electric heating plate 18 is installed in the notch on the top of the machine table 1, and the electric heating plate 18 is in contact with the top of the recycling box 17.

[0038] Further, the recycling box 17 is kept warm by the heating action of the electric heating plate 18, avoiding solidification caused by long placement time of the recycling box 17.

[0039] It should be noted that, in the present text, relational terms such as first and second and the like can only be used to distinguish one entity or operation from another entity or operation, and do not necessarily require or imply that there is any such actual relationship or order between these entities or operations. Moreover, the terms "include", "contain" or any other variants thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, so that a process, method, article or device including a series of elements not only includes those elements, but also includes other elements not explicitly listed or inherent to such a process, method, article or device.

[0040] Although the embodiments of the present application have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations can be made to the embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present application, and the scope of the present application is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
