Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0010]
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of small rice cakes production, and particularly relates to a stuffing machine for small rice cakes. Background Art
[0002] The history of rice cakes can be traced back to the Western Zhou Dynasty. According to the "Rites of Zhou ·天官", the "qi'er fenci" (where "ci" is the same as "rice cake") at that time was a cake steamed with glutinous rice flour filled with red bean paste (called "bean powder" in ancient times). In the Song Dynasty, there were already written records of "rice cakes" in historical records, and they had spread from the court to the people.
[0003] Rice cakes have a soft and glutinous texture, are sweet and delicious, and are very suitable as snacks or desserts. In places such as Xi'an, people usually like to eat rice cakes after heating them with honey, which tastes better. In addition, some people like to coat rice cakes with crushed sesame seeds or coconut flakes and other ingredients to enhance the taste and visual effect.
[0004] Rice cakes not only taste delicious but also have certain nutritional value. The main raw materials of rice cakes include fillings such as glutinous rice flour, sticky rice flour, and red bean paste. Glutinous rice flour contains rich nutrients such as protein, fat, carbohydrates, calcium, phosphorus, and iron, which are beneficial to human health. At the same time, fillings such as red bean paste also contain rich nutrients such as protein, fat, and carbohydrates, which can provide sufficient energy and nutrition for the human body.
[0005] Currently, all rice cakes are large round cake-shaped family sharing packages. The current production process steps are to knead glutinous rice flour with an appropriate amount of water into a dough, then lay zongzi leaves in a steamer, spread a layer of dough on the zongzi leaves, spread a layer of red bean paste on the dough, and finally spread a layer of dough on the red bean paste, and then steam and package.
[0006] However, after unpacking such large portions of rice cakes, they need to be shared among multiple people, and one person cannot finish eating them. If not finished, it is rather troublesome to store. Therefore, there are small single-person servings of rice cakes. However, if such small-sized rice cakes still adopt the production process of large rice cakes, the production cost will be relatively high and the production efficiency will be reduced. Therefore, a new production process is needed to produce small rice cakes. Content of the Utility Model
[0007] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a stuffing machine for small rice cakes aiming at the above existing technical problems, achieving the effects of being applicable to the production of small rice cakes with high production efficiency and low production cost. [[ID=
[0011] Discharge device: The discharge device is used to discharge the dough wrapped around the filling in a columnar shape;
[0012] Cutting mechanism: The cutting mechanism can reciprocate up and down and cut the columnar material discharged from the discharge device;
[0013] The receiving assembly is located below the cutting mechanism and is used to place the receiving tray. The receiving tray has multiple receiving slots for placing paper trays. The receiving assembly includes a lateral moving structure and a longitudinal moving structure. The lateral moving structure and the longitudinal moving structure are used to drive the receiving tray to move below the cutting mechanism so that the small rice cakes cut by the cutting mechanism fall into the paper trays in each receiving slot.
[0014] In this technical solution, dough is fed into the dough hopper of the filling machine, and red bean paste is fed into the filling hopper of the filling machine for filling. The cutting mechanism of the filling machine cuts the columnar material discharged from the discharge device into small glutinous rice cakes that fall into the paper tray of the receiving tray. The cutting mechanism and its reciprocating structure of the filling machine are common structures in existing filling machines and will not be described in detail in this application. By setting up a horizontal and vertical moving structure, each receiving slot in the receiving tray catches a small glutinous rice cake cut off by the cutting mechanism. This receiving method allows the small glutinous rice cakes to fall directly into the receiving tray with paper trays, which prepares them for subsequent steaming and enables intelligent and systematic production.
[0015] Furthermore, the lateral movement structure includes:
[0016] A fixed base, on which a guide rail is provided;
[0017] A transverse motor, which is fixedly mounted on a fixed base;
[0018] A transverse lead screw, which is rotatably mounted on a fixed base and connected to the output end of a transverse motor;
[0019] The receiving plate is slidably mounted on the guide rail, and a lead screw nut is fixedly connected to the bottom of the receiving plate. The lead screw nut is helically connected to the transverse lead screw, and the receiving plate is used to fix the receiving tray.
[0020] Furthermore, the longitudinal moving structure includes:
[0021] A mounting base is fixedly mounted on the frame, and the fixed base is slidably mounted on the mounting base, with the sliding direction of the fixed base perpendicular to the sliding direction of the receiving plate;
[0022] A stepping cylinder is fixedly mounted on the frame. The piston rod of the stepping cylinder is connected to the fixed base, and the axis of the piston rod is perpendicular to the axis of the transverse lead screw.
[0023] In this technical solution, the stepping cylinder extends and moves the fixed seat longitudinally so that all the receiving slots in a single row of the receiving tray receive a small glutinous rice cake. Then, the transverse motor starts and the transverse lead screw rotates, driving the receiving plate to move laterally so that the receiving slots of the next row move directly below the cutting mechanism.
[0024] Furthermore, two receiving plates are provided, each of which can be used to fix the receiving tray.
[0025] In this technical solution, two receiving plates can be set up to have two receiving trays. When one receiving tray is full of small glutinous rice cakes and then unloaded, the other receiving tray can immediately take over the material at the same time without stopping the machine, resulting in high production efficiency.
[0026] Furthermore, an anti-displacement component is fixedly installed below the cutting mechanism. The anti-displacement component is used to prevent the paper tray in the receiving groove from moving and becoming misaligned during the falling of the small glutinous rice cake.
[0027] Furthermore, the anti-displacement component includes:
[0028] The fixed plate is integrally fixedly connected to the cutting mechanism. A feeding hole is opened at the center of the fixed plate. An arc-shaped protrusion is provided on the side of the fixed plate away from the cutting mechanism. There are multiple protrusions and they are evenly distributed around the circumference. The end of the protrusion near the center is a fixed part that is fixedly connected to the fixed plate. Except for the fixed part, there is a receiving space between the other parts of the protrusion and the fixed plate. A first sliding groove is formed between two adjacent protrusions.
[0029] A rotating disk is coaxially disposed within the accommodating space with the protrusion and rotatably sleeved on the outer periphery of the fixed part of the protrusion. The rotating disk is provided with a plurality of first adjustment grooves, which are evenly distributed around the axis of the rotating disk. The first adjustment grooves are arc-shaped and their axes are offset from the axis of the rotating disk.
[0030] The first slider is slidably arranged in each first groove. A first pin is fixedly arranged on the first slider. The first pin is slidably arranged in the first adjustment groove. A first pressure plate is vertically arranged at the end of the first slider pointing to the center of the rotating disk. A second pressure plate is suspended on the back of the first pressure plate. The second pressure plate and the first pressure plate are connected by a spring. All the first pressure plates can form a guide space. When the small glutinous rice cake falls, the diameter of the guide space is greater than the diameter of the small glutinous rice cake and less than the maximum diameter of the paper tray. The side of all the second pressure plates away from the first pressure plate can form a pressing ring surface. When the small glutinous rice cake falls to the paper tray, the diameter of the pressing ring surface is equal to the diameter at the middle of the paper tray.
[0031] A drive structure is provided to drive the rotating disk to rotate circumferentially and adjust the diameter of the guide space and the pressure ring surface.
[0032] Furthermore, the anti-displacement component is also provided with an anti-disturbance structure, which is used to move the second pressure plate closer to the first pressure plate when the cutting mechanism moves upward, so as to prevent the second pressure plate from moving upward with the paper tray at the moment the cutting mechanism moves upward.
[0033] In this technical solution, when the cutting mechanism starts to move upward, to prevent the first pressure plate from scratching the small glutinous rice cake when it moves upward, the first pressure plate will continue to move outward so that the diameter of the guide space continues to increase to Amax. At this time, under the action of the spring, the pressure of the second pressure plate against the paper tray will increase. If the second pressure plate in this state moves upward with the cutting mechanism, it will move upward with the paper tray and the small glutinous rice cake in the paper tray at the moment the upward movement begins. Since the receiving groove is a cone shape with a smaller bottom and a larger top, when it moves upward to a certain position, when the second pressure plate no longer presses against the paper tray, the paper tray and the small glutinous rice cake will fall together. The impact force of the small glutinous rice cake falling will cause it to deviate from the paper tray or disturb the adjacent paper tray. Therefore, an anti-disturbance structure is set up so that the second pressure plate moves closer to the first pressure plate when the cutting mechanism moves upward. Then the second pressure plate will not contact the paper tray when the cutting mechanism moves upward, avoiding damage and disturbance to the paper tray caused by the upward movement.
[0034] Furthermore, the disturbance prevention structure includes:
[0035] The second slide groove is provided on each of the first sliders;
[0036] The second adjustment groove, a plurality of second adjustment grooves are evenly distributed around the axis of the rotating disk in a circumferential manner on the rotating disk. The second adjustment groove is arc-shaped and its axis is offset from the axis of the rotating disk. The second adjustment groove and the first adjustment groove are inclined relative to the radius of the rotating disk and the inclination direction is opposite.
[0037] The second slider is slidably disposed in each second groove. A second pin is fixedly disposed on the second slider. The second pin is slidably disposed in the second adjustment groove. The end of the extension of the second slider pointing to the center of the rotating disk points to the second pressure plate and can move toward the second pressure plate. When the small glutinous rice cake falls onto the paper tray, the extension of the second slider just contacts the second pressure plate.
[0038] Furthermore, the driving structure includes:
[0039] The motor is fixedly mounted on the fixed plate;
[0040] The drive gear is connected to the output end of the motor, and the outer circumference of the rotating disk is provided with transmission teeth that mesh with the drive gear.
[0041] In this technical solution, the starting motor causes the drive gear to rotate circumferentially, which in turn drives the rotating disk to rotate.
[0042] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0043] 1. By setting up a horizontal and vertical moving structure, each receiving slot in the receiving tray can catch a small glutinous rice cake cut off by the cutting mechanism. This receiving method allows the small glutinous rice cake to fall directly into the receiving tray with paper trays, preparing it for subsequent steaming, and enabling intelligent and systematic production.
[0044] 2. By setting two receiving plates, there are two receiving trays. When one receiving tray is full of small glutinous rice cakes and then unloaded, the other receiving tray can immediately take over the material without stopping the machine, resulting in high production efficiency.
[0045] 3. During the process of the small glutinous rice cake being cut and falling from the cutting mechanism, the small peg at the top may deviate and collide with the adjacent paper tray, causing the adjacent paper tray to shift. This means that the bottom of the small glutinous rice cake at that position may not be completely covered by the paper tray after falling. Additionally, when the small glutinous rice cake falls to the bottom of the paper tray, the weight will exert a significant impact force on the tray. If the paper tray is slightly off-center from the beginning, the impact force of the falling glutinous rice cake will amplify this offset, causing the paper tray to shift even further, resulting in the bottom of the glutinous rice cake being completely covered by the paper tray after falling. Both of these situations will affect the subsequent steaming effect and the quality of the packaging. The anti-displacement component prevents the paper tray from shifting in either of these ways during the small glutinous rice cake's fall, thus ensuring the quality of the subsequent steaming and packaging.
[0046] 4. When the cutting mechanism starts to move upward, to prevent the first pressure plate from scratching the small rice cake when it moves upward, the first pressure plate will continue to move outward to increase the diameter of the guide space to Amax. At this time, under the action of the spring, the pressure of the second pressure plate against the paper tray will increase. If the second pressure plate in this state moves upward with the cutting mechanism, it will move upward with the paper tray and the small rice cake inside the paper tray at the moment the upward movement begins. Because the receiving groove is a cone shape with a smaller bottom and a larger top, when it moves upward to a certain position, when the second pressure plate no longer presses against the paper tray, the paper tray and the small rice cake will fall together. The impact force of the small rice cake falling will cause it to deviate from the paper tray or disturb the adjacent paper tray. Therefore, an anti-disturbance structure is set up so that the second pressure plate moves closer to the first pressure plate when the cutting mechanism moves upward. Then the second pressure plate will not contact the paper tray when the cutting mechanism moves upward, avoiding damage and disturbance to the paper tray when it moves upward.

[0068] Currently, glutinous rice cakes are all large, round, family-sized portions. The current production process involves kneading glutinous rice flour with water to form a dough, then lining a steamer with bamboo leaves, layering dough on top, followed by a layer of red bean paste, and finally another layer of dough. After steaming, the cakes are packaged. However, these large portions require multiple people to share, as one person cannot finish them all. Storing uneaten cakes is also inconvenient. Therefore, smaller, single-serving glutinous rice cakes have been developed. However, if these smaller cakes were produced using the same process as the larger ones, production costs would be high and efficiency would decrease. Therefore, a new production process is needed to produce smaller glutinous rice cakes.
[0069] Example 1
[0070] A method for making small glutinous rice cakes includes the following steps:
[0071] S1: Prepare the ingredients. Soak the glutinous rice in water for 3 hours, drain the water and grind it into glutinous rice flour. Pour the glutinous rice flour into a dough mixer, add water and stir to make dough. Wash the red beans with water, add water and cook in a pressure cooker until soft. Then cook with sugar, oil and sesame seeds to make red bean paste.
[0072] S2: Filling: Put the dough into the dough hopper 1 of the filling machine, put the red bean paste into the filling hopper 2 of the filling machine, and fill the dough. The cutting mechanism 4 of the filling machine cuts the columnar material discharged from the discharge device 3 into small glutinous rice cakes that fall into the paper tray 8 of the receiving tray 6.
[0073] S3: Steaming: Flatten the small glutinous rice cakes in the paper tray 8, and then put them into the steamer along with the receiving tray 6 to steam until cooked;
[0074] S4: Packaging: Pack the steamed glutinous rice cakes into individual packaging bags.
[0075] By using a filling method and employing a filling machine to make small glutinous rice cakes, this method is suitable for producing small-volume glutinous rice cakes, with high production efficiency and low production costs.
[0076] Example 2
[0077] like Figure 2-3 As shown, the filling machine includes a frame, and the frame is equipped with:
[0078] Dough Hopper 1: The dough hopper 1 is used to hold dough, and the dough hopper 1 has a corresponding dough extrusion structure;
[0079] Filling hopper 2: The filling hopper 2 is used to hold fillings, and the filling hopper 2 has a corresponding filling extrusion structure;
[0080] Discharge device 3: The discharge device 3 is used to discharge the dough wrapped around the filling in a columnar shape;
[0081] Cutting mechanism 4: The cutting mechanism 4 can reciprocate up and down and cut the columnar material discharged from the discharger 3;
[0082] The receiving component 5 is located below the cutting mechanism 4. The receiving component 5 is used to place the receiving tray 6. The receiving tray 6 has multiple receiving slots 7 for placing paper trays 8. The receiving component 5 includes a lateral moving structure and a longitudinal moving structure. The lateral moving structure and the longitudinal moving structure are used to drive the receiving tray 6 to move below the cutting mechanism 4 so that the small glutinous rice cakes cut by the cutting mechanism 4 fall into the paper trays 8 in each receiving slot 7.
[0083] The dough is fed into the dough hopper 1 of the filling machine, and the red bean paste is fed into the filling hopper 2 of the filling machine. The filling is then wrapped. The cutting mechanism 4 of the filling machine cuts the columnar material discharged from the discharge device 3 into small glutinous rice cakes that fall into the paper tray 8 of the receiving tray 6. The cutting mechanism 4 of the filling machine and its reciprocating structure are common structures in existing filling machines and will not be described in detail in this application. By setting the horizontal and vertical movement structures, each receiving slot 7 in the receiving tray 6 can catch a small glutinous rice cake cut off by the cutting mechanism 4. This receiving method allows the small glutinous rice cakes to fall directly into the receiving tray 6 with the paper tray 8, which is ready for subsequent steaming and enables intelligent and systematic production.
[0084] The lateral movement structure includes:
[0085] Fixed base 9, with guide rail 10 provided on fixed base 9;
[0086] A transverse motor 11 is fixedly mounted on a fixed base 9;
[0087] A transverse lead screw 12 is rotatably mounted on a fixed base 9 and connected to the output end of a transverse motor 11.
[0088] The receiving plate 13 is slidably mounted on the guide rail 10. A lead screw nut is fixedly connected to the bottom of the receiving plate 13. The lead screw nut is spirally connected to the transverse lead screw 12. The receiving plate 13 is used to fix the receiving tray 6.
[0089] The longitudinal moving structure includes:
[0090] The mounting base 14 is fixedly mounted on the frame, and the fixed seat 9 is slidably mounted on the mounting base 14. The sliding direction of the fixed seat 9 is perpendicular to the sliding direction of the receiving plate 13.
[0091] Stepping cylinder 15 is fixedly mounted on the frame. The piston rod of stepping cylinder 15 is connected to the fixed base 9. The axis of the piston rod of stepping cylinder 15 is perpendicular to the axis of the transverse lead screw 12.
[0092] The stepping cylinder 15 extends and moves longitudinally along with the fixed base 9, so that all the receiving slots 7 in a single row of the receiving tray 6 can receive a small glutinous rice cake. Then the transverse motor 11 starts, causing the transverse lead screw 12 to rotate and drive the receiving plate 13 to move laterally, so that the receiving slots 7 of the next row move directly below the cutting mechanism 4.
[0093] Two receiving plates 13 are provided, and each receiving plate 13 can be used to fix the receiving tray 6. With two receiving plates 13, there are two receiving trays 6. When one receiving tray 6 is full of small glutinous rice cakes and is unloaded, the other receiving tray 6 can immediately take over the material at the same time without stopping the machine, which improves production efficiency.
[0094] Example 3
[0095] like Figure 4-11 As shown, an anti-displacement component 16 is fixedly installed below the cutting mechanism 4. The anti-displacement component 16 is used to prevent the paper tray 8 in the receiving groove 7 from moving and becoming misaligned during the process of the small glutinous rice cake falling.
[0096] The paper tray 8 is made of the same material as the steamer paper. During the process of the small glutinous rice cake being cut and falling from the cutting mechanism 4, the small peg at the top may deviate and collide with an adjacent paper tray 8, causing the adjacent paper tray 8 to shift. This means that the bottom of the small glutinous rice cake at that position may not be completely covered by the paper tray 8 after falling. Additionally, when the small glutinous rice cake falls to the bottom of the paper tray 8, its weight will exert a significant impact force. If the paper tray 8 is slightly off-center from the beginning, the impact force of the falling small glutinous rice cake will amplify this offset, causing the paper tray 8 to shift even further, resulting in the bottom of the glutinous rice cake being completely covered by the paper tray 8 after falling. Both of these situations will affect the subsequent steaming effect and the subsequent packaging effect and quality. The anti-displacement component 16 is designed to prevent the paper tray 8 from shifting in either of these ways during the falling of the small glutinous rice cake, thus ensuring the subsequent steaming effect and the subsequent packaging effect and quality of the small glutinous rice cake.
[0097] The anti-displacement component 16 includes:
[0098] The fixed plate 17 is integrally fixedly connected to the cutting mechanism 4. The fixed plate 17 has a feeding hole 18 at its center. The fixed plate 17 has an arc-shaped protrusion 19 on the side away from the cutting mechanism 4. There are multiple protrusions 19 and they are evenly distributed around the circumference. The end of the protrusion 19 near the center is a fixing part 20 that is fixedly connected to the fixed plate 17. Except for the fixing part 20, there is a receiving space 21 between the other parts of the protrusion 19 and the fixed plate 17. A first groove 22 is formed between two adjacent protrusions 19.
[0099] A rotating disk 23 is coaxially disposed within the accommodating space 21 and rotatably sleeved on the outer periphery of the fixing part 20 of the protrusion 19. A plurality of first adjustment grooves 24 are provided on the rotating disk 23. The plurality of first adjustment grooves 24 are evenly distributed around the axis of the rotating disk 23. The first adjustment grooves 24 are arc-shaped and their axes are offset from the axis of the rotating disk 23.
[0100] The first slider 25 is slidably disposed in each first groove 22. The first slider 25 is fixedly disposed on the first pin 26, which is slidably disposed in the first adjustment groove 24. The first pressure plate 27 is vertically disposed at the end of the first slider 25 pointing to the center of the rotating disk 23. The back of the first pressure plate 27 is suspended and disposed on the second pressure plate 28. The second pressure plate 28 and the first pressure plate 27 are connected by a spring 29. All the first pressure plates 27 can form a guide space 30. When the small glutinous rice cake falls, the diameter of the guide space 30 is greater than the diameter of the small glutinous rice cake and less than the maximum diameter of the paper tray 8. The side of all the second pressure plates 28 away from the first pressure plate 27 can form a pressing ring surface 31. When the small glutinous rice cake falls to the paper tray 8, the diameter of the pressing ring surface 31 is equal to the diameter at the middle of the paper tray 8.
[0101] The drive structure 32 is used to drive the rotating disk 23 to rotate circumferentially to adjust the diameter of the guide space 30 and the pressure ring surface 31.
[0102] The drive structure 32 drives the rotating disk 23 to rotate, causing the spatial position of the first adjusting groove 24 to change, thus attempting to cause the first pin 26 to shift circumferentially. However, due to the restriction of the first sliding groove 22 on the first slider 25, the first pin 26 can only slide along the length of the first sliding groove 22, that is, along the radius of the rotating disk 23, thereby causing multiple first pressure plates 27 to move closer or further apart, thereby adjusting the diameter of the guide space 30. When the cutting mechanism 4 moves downward to cut the small glutinous rice cake, the diameter of the guide space 30 is at its minimum state (Amin), the diameter of the pressing ring surface 31 is also at its minimum state (Bmin), and the lateral distance between the pressing ring surface 31 and the inner wall of the paper tray 8 is at its maximum state (Cmax). Figure 12 As shown. However, at this point, it is still larger than the diameter of the small glutinous rice cake. Only the small glutinous rice cake is guided and limited, which can make the small glutinous rice cake fall vertically without tilting, prevent the small glutinous rice cake from tilting and disturbing the adjacent tray, and minimize the change in the appearance shape of the small glutinous rice cake. As the cutting mechanism 4 gradually moves down, the drive structure 32 drives the rotating disk 23 to rotate at a small angle, so that the diameter of the pressing ring surface 31 gradually increases until the second pressure plate 28 presses against the paper tray 8. At this time, the diameter of the guide space 30 also increases. When the second pressure plate 28 presses against the paper tray 8, the guide space 30 is Ak, the diameter of the pressing ring surface 31 is at its maximum value Bmax, and the lateral distance between the pressing ring surface 31 and the inner wall of the paper tray 8 is at its minimum state Cmin. Figure 13 As shown, the small glutinous rice cake falls into the paper tray 8. This ensures that the paper tray 8 at the point where the small glutinous rice cake falls and the adjacent paper trays 8 will not move or misalign due to the impact of the small glutinous rice cake. Because a spring 29 is installed between the second pressure plate 28 and the first pressure plate 27, the pressure between the second pressure plate 28 and the side wall of the paper tray 8 is flexible. Therefore, after the second pressure plate 28 presses against the side wall of the paper tray 8, the position of the paper tray 8 is not rigidly fixed, but still has a little room for adjustment, within the allowable deviation range. The second pressure plate 28 has a rounded lower end to effectively protect the paper tray 8 from damage caused by the weight of the falling glutinous rice cakes. When the glutinous rice cake falls into the paper tray 8, the cutting mechanism 4 begins to move upwards. To prevent the glutinous rice cakes from being scratched if tilted inside the paper tray 8, the drive structure 32 drives the rotating disk 23 to continue rotating, causing the first pressure plate 27 to continue moving outwards and increasing the diameter of the guide space 30 to Amax. Figure 14 As shown, until the first pressure plate 27 is completely moved up out of the paper tray 8, the drive structure 32 drives the rotating disk 23 to rotate in the opposite direction to reset and prepare for the next downward movement.
[0103] The anti-displacement assembly 16 is also provided with an anti-disturbance structure, which is used to move the second pressure plate 28 closer to the first pressure plate 27 when the cutting mechanism 4 moves upward, so as to prevent the second pressure plate 28 from moving upward with the paper tray 8 at the moment the cutting mechanism 4 moves upward.
[0104] When the cutting mechanism 4 begins to move upward, to prevent the first pressure plate 27 from scratching the small glutinous rice cakes, the first pressure plate 27 will continue to move outward, causing the diameter of the guide space 30 to continue to increase to Amax. At this time, under the action of the spring 29, the pressure of the second pressure plate 28 against the paper tray 8 will increase. If the second pressure plate 28 in this state starts to move upward with the cutting mechanism 4, it will carry the paper tray 8 and the small glutinous rice cakes inside the paper tray upward at the moment the upward movement begins. Because the receiving groove 7 is a cone shape with a smaller bottom and a larger top. When the second pressure plate 28 moves up to a certain position and stops pressing against the paper tray 8, the paper tray 8 will fall together with the small glutinous rice cake. The impact force of the falling small glutinous rice cake will cause it to deviate from the paper tray 8 or disturb the adjacent paper tray 8. Therefore, an anti-disturbance structure is set up so that when the cutting mechanism 4 moves upward, the second pressure plate 28 moves closer to the first pressure plate 27. Then the second pressure plate 28 will not contact the paper tray 8 when the cutting mechanism 4 moves upward, thus avoiding damage and disturbance to the paper tray 8 caused by the upward movement.
[0105] The disturbance prevention structure includes:
[0106] The second groove 33 is provided on each of the first sliders 25;
[0107] The second adjustment groove 34, a plurality of second adjustment grooves 34 are evenly distributed around the axis of the rotating disk 23. The second adjustment groove 34 is arc-shaped and its axis is offset from the axis of the rotating disk 23. The second adjustment groove 34 and the first adjustment groove 24 are inclined relative to the radius of the rotating disk 23 and the inclination direction is opposite.
[0108] The second slider 35 is slidably disposed in each second slide groove 33. The second slider 35 is fixedly disposed on the second pin 36, which is slidably disposed in the second adjustment groove 34. The end of the extension of the second slider 35 pointing to the center of the rotating disk 23 points to the second pressure plate 28 and can move toward the second pressure plate 28. When the small glutinous rice cake falls to the paper tray 8, the extension of the second slider 35 just contacts the second pressure plate 28.
[0109] When the cutting mechanism 4 moves upward, the drive structure 32 drives the rotating disk 23 to continue rotating, causing the first pressure plate 27 to continue moving outward and increasing the diameter of the guide space 30 to Amax. Because the first adjusting groove 24 and the second adjusting groove 34 are inclined in opposite directions, the rotating disk 23, while rotating, can carry the second slider 35 to continue moving towards the first pressure plate 27 within the second sliding groove 33, pressing against the second pressure plate 28 and bringing it closer to the first pressure plate 27, forming a state where the second pressure plate 28 and the first pressure plate 27 are close to each other. At this time, the diameter of the guide space 30 increases to Amax, the diameter of the pressing ring surface 31 decreases to Bk, which is between the maximum and minimum values, and the lateral distance between the pressing ring surface 31 and the inner wall of the paper tray 8 also increases to Ck, which is between the maximum and minimum values. Figure 14 As shown.
[0110] The drive structure 32 includes:
[0111] Motor 37, which is fixedly mounted on the fixed plate 17;
[0112] The drive gear 38 is connected to the output end of the motor 37. The outer periphery of the rotating disk 23 is provided with transmission teeth 39, which mesh with the drive gear 38.
[0113] The starting motor 37 causes the drive gear 38 to rotate circumferentially, which in turn drives the rotating disk 23 to rotate.
