Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the technical field of cupcake manufacturing equipment, and in particular to a cupcake filling forming device. Background Technology

[0002] Cake cups are containers specifically designed for holding cakes. To ensure food safety, cake cups are often made of disposable paper. As the variety of cakes increases, the containers used to hold them also need to change. For example, donut cakes have holes in the middle. To accommodate these, cake cups often have a filling in the middle, making the entire cake cup look like a traditional hot pot. For instance, Chinese design patent No. 305592726S discloses the shape of a cake box, where the filling in the middle is cylindrical.

[0003] Current manufacturing processes for the core often involve manual edging followed by gluing on both sides, resulting in low overall production efficiency and inconsistent product quality. Utility Model Content

[0004] To improve the production efficiency of the filling, this application provides a cake cup filling forming device.

[0005] The cake cup filling forming device provided in this application adopts the following technical solution:

[0006] A cupcake filling forming device, comprising:

[0007] frame;

[0008] A forming base is mounted on a frame. The forming base has a positioning groove for limiting the paper and a cavity communicating with the positioning groove.

[0009] A pressing mechanism, mounted on a frame, includes a mold core and a first driving member that drives the mold core away from / towards the forming seat;

[0010] A flanging mechanism, mounted on a frame, includes a first flanging member and a second flanging member disposed on both sides of the forming base; and

[0011] The pressing mechanism is mounted on the frame. The pressing mechanism includes a pressing element and a second driving element that drives the pressing element away from / towards the mold core.

[0012] The mold core is positioned above the cavity and can be housed within the cavity. The pressing element is positioned above the mold core. The first flanging element and the second flanging element can move towards or away from the mold core.

[0013] By adopting the above technical solution, the paper is pre-placed in the positioning groove of the forming seat to reduce paper movement. After the mold core in the pressing mechanism cooperates with the cavity, the two sides of the paper bulge. Then, the two flanging parts push the two sides of the bulging paper towards the mold core and flip it. Finally, the pressing parts of the pressing mechanism press the two ends of the paper to close it. After completion, the formed core can be removed from the mold core. The whole process greatly improves production efficiency, and the quality of the formed core can be guaranteed because it is a standardized action of the mechanism.

[0014] Preferably, the first flanging component includes a first flanging seat and a third driving component that drives the first flanging seat away from / near the mold core; the second flanging component includes a second flanging seat and a fourth driving component that drives the second flanging seat away from / near the mold core; wherein, when the first flanging seat and the second flanging seat move towards the side near the mold core, the first driving component and the second driving component move back and forth.

[0015] By adopting the above technical solution, the third and fourth driving components respectively drive the first and second flanging seats to apply a force to both sides of the paper towards the mold core. During the process, the first and second driving components are set to move back and forth, so that one side of the paper is rolled before the other side. This can reduce the collision interference when the two sides of the paper are rolled towards the mold core and improve the stability of core production.

[0016] Preferably, the first flanging component includes a first flanging seat and a third driving component that drives the first flanging seat away from / towards the mold core; the second flanging component includes a second flanging seat and a fourth driving component that drives the second flanging seat away from / towards the mold core; wherein, the first flanging component further includes a fifth driving component fixed on the first flanging seat and an auxiliary flanging seat connected to the fifth driving component, the auxiliary flanging seat can move away from / towards the mold core, and the third driving component and the fourth driving component operate synchronously.

[0017] By adopting the above technical solution, the third and fourth driving components respectively drive the first and second flanging seats to apply a force towards the mold core to both sides of the paper. When both sides of the paper are close to the mold core, the fifth driving component can drive the auxiliary flanging seat to push one side of the paper further towards the mold core, thereby reducing the collision interference between the two sides of the paper when they are flanging towards the mold core and improving the stability of core production.

[0018] Preferably, both the first flange seat and the second flange seat have arc-shaped guide surfaces at their ends.

[0019] By adopting the above technical solution, the guide surface can better fit the paper and improve the stability when the paper is rolled up.

[0020] Preferred options also include:

[0021] A stripping mechanism, the stripping mechanism including a baffle plate mounted on the frame and a sixth driving member for driving the pressing mechanism away from / towards the baffle plate;

[0022] The baffle plate has a guide opening for the mold core to pass through, and at least one inwardly extending baffle block is provided at the outer edge of the guide opening.

[0023] By adopting the above technical solution, after the paper is formed, the mold core is lifted synchronously with the formed paper. Then, the sixth driving component drives the mold core to move towards the side of the stop block. When the mold core enters the guide hole, the stop block can act on the paper and move relative to the mold core to achieve unloading, thus improving the production efficiency of the core.

[0024] Preferably, the mold core has a guide groove on its outer surface for the material blocking block to slide.

[0025] By adopting the above technical solution, the opening of the guide groove can first avoid interference with the mold core when the core is displaced relative to the mold core; secondly, after the guide groove is opened, the area of ​​the stop block can be made larger, increasing the contact area with the core and better improving the stability of the core during unloading.

[0026] Preferably, the pressing mechanism further includes a base and a pressing seat slidably connected to the base, the first driving member is connected to the pressing seat, and the mold core is connected to the pressing seat; the base is slidably connected to the frame, and the sixth driving member is connected to the base for driving the base to move relative to the frame.

[0027] By adopting the above technical solution, the setting of the pressing seat can facilitate the connection of the mold core. At the same time, during the unloading process, the base moves synchronously with the mold core due to the mass of the base, which reduces shaking and improves the stability during unloading.

[0028] Preferably, the pressing mechanism includes a heating element disposed within the pressing member.

[0029] By adopting the above technical solution, after the paper is rolled up on both sides, the heating effect of the pressing element when it acts on the paper can achieve hot pressing and improve the adhesion of the paper.

[0030] In summary, this application includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects:

[0031] 1. The core is produced automatically through the interaction of pressing, flanging, pressing and unloading mechanisms, thereby improving production efficiency;

[0032] 2. By setting the front and rear movements of the first and second flanging parts in the flanging mechanism, combined with the sliding cooperation between the stripping block and the guide groove on the mold core in the stripping mechanism, the stability of core forming and product quality are improved.

[0042] The present application will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0043] It should be noted that when an element is referred to as being "fixed to" another element, it can be directly attached to the other element or there may be an intervening element. When an element is referred to as being "connected to" another element, it can be directly connected to the other element or there may be an intervening element. The terms "vertical," "horizontal," "left," "right," and similar expressions used herein are for illustrative purposes only and do not represent the only possible implementation.

[0044] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this application belongs. The terminology used herein in the specification of the invention is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to be limiting of the invention. The term "and / or" as used herein includes any and all combinations of one or more of the associated listed items. Example 1

[0045] Figure 1 and Figure 2 The structure of a cupcake filling forming device is shown. In this embodiment, the filling of the cupcake is generally cylindrical and is formed by pressing paper material as the substrate. The forming device mainly includes a frame 1 and a forming seat 2, a pressing mechanism 3, a flanging mechanism 4, and a pressing edge mechanism 5 mounted on the frame 1. The pressing mechanism 3 and the flanging mechanism 4 are located on one side of the forming process, and the pressing edge mechanism 5 is located above the forming seat 2.

[0046] Combination Figure 3 The forming base 2 has a positioning groove 21 on its upper surface for limiting the paper position. The paper is laid flat in the positioning groove 21 to reduce horizontal movement. The forming base 2 also has a cavity 22 that communicates with the positioning groove 21. The cavity 22 has a certain depth and is located in the middle area of ​​the forming base 2.

[0047] The pressing mechanism 3 includes a base 31, a pressing seat 33 slidably connected to the base 31, and a mold core 34 mounted on the pressing seat 33. The mold core 34 extends toward the molding seat 2 and is positioned above the cavity 22. The cavity shape of the cavity 22 matches the outer surface of the mold core 34, and the mold core 34 can be embedded in the cavity 22. In this embodiment, the depth of the cavity 22 is less than the diameter of the mold core 34, so that the mold core 34 is partially positioned outside the cavity 22 after being embedded in it.

[0048] The base 31 is slidably connected to the frame 1, allowing it to move closer to or further away from the molding seat 2. The pressing seat 33 is slidably connected to the base 31. The pressing mechanism 3 also includes a first driving member 32 connected to the base 31. The first driving member 32 is connected to the pressing seat 33 to drive the pressing seat 33 to move closer to or further away from the molding seat 2.

[0049] The flanging mechanism 4 includes a first flanging member and a second flanging member located on both sides of the forming base 2. The first flanging member includes a third driving member 41 fixed to the frame 1 and a first flanging seat 42 connected to the third driving member 41. The second flanging member includes a fourth driving member 43 fixed to the frame 1 and a second flanging seat 44 connected to the fourth driving member 43. A fifth driving member 45 is also installed on the first flanging seat 42, and the fifth driving member 45 is connected to an auxiliary flanging seat 46. The first flanging seat 42, the second flanging seat 44, and the auxiliary flanging seat 46 all have a protrusion extending toward the mold core 34.

[0050] The pressing mechanism 3 includes a second driving member 51 and a pressing member 52 connected to the second driving member 51. The second driving member 51 is mounted on the frame 1, and the pressing member 52 is positioned above the mold core 34 and can be driven by the second driving member 51 to move away from or towards the mold core 34. To ensure the stability of the pressing member 52 during movement, the pressing member 52 is also connected to a guide rod 53, which is slidably connected to the frame 1.

[0051] See also Figure 4 and Figure 5 The molding device also includes a stripping mechanism 6, which includes a baffle plate 61 fixed on the frame 1. The baffle plate 61 has a certain vertical height relative to the working surface of the frame 1 and is placed in the upper area of ​​the model. There is a gap between the pressing seat 33 and one side end face of the mold core 34 to form a relief groove 35. The baffle plate 61 is placed within the area of ​​the relief groove 35.

[0052] The baffle plate 61 has a guide opening 62 on one side. The guide opening 62 has an arc-shaped surface that matches the outer surface of the mold core 34. The guide opening 62 has guide blocks extending in opposite directions on both sides of its lower edge. The mold core 34 has a guide groove 341 on its outer surface corresponding to the positions of the two guide blocks. The guide blocks can slide in the guide groove 341.

[0053] Combination Figure 6 The unloading mechanism 6 also includes a sixth driving member 64 fixed to the lower surface of the frame 1 and a connecting seat 65 connected to the sixth driving member 64. One end of the connecting seat 65 is connected to the lower surface of the base 31. The sixth driving member 64 can drive the entire base 31 to slide relative to the frame 1 through the connecting seat 65.

[0054] In this embodiment, the driving component is a cylinder, hydraulic cylinder, or other linear propulsion assembly.

[0055] When this forming device is working, the paper is laid flat in the positioning groove 21 of the forming seat 2. The first driving member 32 drives the mold core 34 to move towards the cavity 22. When the mold core 34 acts on the paper, the two sides of the paper curl outward. The third driving member 41 and the fourth driving member 43 respectively drive the corresponding first flanging member and second flanging member to move towards the mold core 34. The first flanging seat 42 and the second flanging seat 44 respectively abut against and act on the paper to roll around the outer surface of the mold core 34. The first flanging seat 42 and the second flanging seat 44 both have an arc-shaped guide surface 47 to facilitate contact with the outer surface of the mold core 34 to reduce paper wrinkles.

[0056] In this embodiment, when both sides of the paper are rolled up to a certain extent, the fifth driving member 45 drives the auxiliary rolling seat to move. The protrusion of the auxiliary rolling seat is higher than the protrusion of the first flanging seat 42. Thus, the auxiliary rolling seat can be used to push one side of the paper to continue rolling around the outer surface of the mold core 34 relative to the other side, so that one side of the paper is placed below the other side. Then, the first flanging member and the second flanging member continue to push one side of the paper to roll up until the paper is completely attached to the outer surface of the mold core 34. Finally, the pressing member 52 is driven by the second driving member 51 to move towards the mold core 34. The pressing member 52 is also provided with a heating element, such as a heating wire. When the pressing member 52 is attached to the side edge line 20 of the core body 10, the paper is thermally pressed and bonded on one side. Of course, in order to improve the bonding strength of the paper, glue can be applied to the surface of both sides of the paper in advance. The glue can quickly solidify after being heated to improve the adhesion. Example 2

[0057] See Figure 8 A cake cup filling forming device differs from Embodiment 1 in that the fifth driving member 45 and the auxiliary flanging seat 46 are omitted, and the first driving member 32 and the second driving member 51 perform sequential actions, that is, the first driving member 32 takes precedence or lags behind the second driving member 51. This allows one side to be rolled up before the other side and placed below the other side during the paper rolling process, reducing collision interference during the paper rolling process and making the overall forming device structure simpler.

[0058] The above are all preferred embodiments of this application, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this application. Therefore, all equivalent changes made in accordance with the structure, shape and principle of this application should be covered within the scope of protection of this application.
