Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model based on the specific circumstances.

[0023] like Figure 1 As shown, the square-to-round steamed bun forming machine in this embodiment includes a frame 1, a conveyor belt 2, a drive motor 3, a closing mechanism, and a shaping mechanism. Part of the conveyor belt 2 is horizontally positioned on top of the frame 1, and part is positioned inside the frame 1. The drive motor 3 is located inside the frame 1 and is connected to the conveyor belt 2 via a transmission connection (e.g., ...). Figure 2 As shown in the figure, the conveyor belt 2 is connected by multiple rollers, and the connection method is a conventional technical means in this field, which will not be described in detail here.

[0024] The closing mechanism is supported on the frame 1 and located above the feed end of the conveyor belt 2. The closing mechanism includes a closing motor 4, two closing wheels 5 arranged at intervals, a drive shaft 6, a first bevel gear 7 and a second bevel gear 8. The closing motor 4 is mounted above the conveyor belt 2 via a first support frame 9. The two closing wheels 5 are rotatably mounted at the bottom of the first support frame 9, and the bottom of the closing wheels 5 is suspended above the conveyor belt 2. The gap between the two should be as small as possible to ensure that they do not interfere with each other's movement.

[0025] The two sides of the closing motor 4 are connected with a first bevel gear 7 through a transmission shaft 6 respectively, the two first bevel gears 7 are oppositely arranged, the top of the two closing wheels 5 is connected with a second bevel gear 8 respectively, and the first bevel gears 7 and the second bevel gears 8 on the two sides are engaged transmission.
