Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of hawthorn production technology, specifically to a hawthorn ball forming device. Background Technology
[0002] Hawthorn ball forming equipment plays an important role in the food processing industry, especially in the production of hawthorn balls and similar foods. However, the hawthorn ball forming equipment currently on the market has certain shortcomings.
[0003] For example, utility model CN219460258U discloses a hawthorn ball forming device, including an outer shell with an internal stirring chamber; a stirring component rotatably installed inside the stirring chamber and a drive motor for driving the stirring component to rotate; a water storage tank is provided at the bottom of the stirring chamber on the outer shell, and the outer shell is provided with a water inlet and a water outlet communicating with the water storage tank. Solenoid valves are installed at both the water inlet and the water outlet and are connected to a water circulation mechanism; a heating element is provided inside the water storage tank. Therefore, this utility model achieves uniform heating of the syrup through water bath heating, and utilizes circulating water to achieve rapid cooling of the syrup during the frosting process.
[0004] In the process of developing this application, the following problems were found with the technology: In the process of using the existing hawthorn ball forming device, the stirring component is driven by the start of the motor to turn the hawthorn over so as to achieve full coating of the outer surface of the hawthorn with slurry. However, most of the stirring rollers beat the hawthorn during the stirring process, which makes it easy to damage the hawthorn during the subsequent stirring and coating process, thus reducing the practicality of the equipment.
[0005] Therefore, a hawthorn ball forming device is proposed. Utility Model Content
[0006] The purpose of this invention is to solve the problem that most mixing rollers beat the hawthorns during the mixing process, which easily damages the hawthorns during the subsequent mixing and slurry application process. This invention provides a hawthorn ball forming device.
[0007] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model specifically adopts the following technical solution:
[0008] A hawthorn ball forming device includes a forming device body, the forming device body includes a mixing chamber, the lower surface of the mixing chamber has a through hole, a mixing mechanism for flexibly mixing the hawthorns accumulated in the mixing chamber is installed inside the through hole of the mixing chamber, the upper surface of the mixing mechanism has a through hole, a feeding mechanism is installed inside the through hole of the mixing mechanism, and a limit mechanism is provided on the outer surface of the mixing chamber.
[0009] Furthermore, the stirring mechanism includes a motor, which is installed on the lower surface of the stirring chamber. The output shaft of the motor passes through the internal through hole of the stirring chamber and is fitted with a rotating rod. The outer surface of the rotating rod is provided with four sets of arc-shaped stirring rods. The lower surfaces of the four sets of arc-shaped stirring rods abut against the bottom of the inner wall of the stirring chamber, and the sides of the four sets of arc-shaped stirring rods away from the rotating rod abut against the inner wall of the stirring chamber.
[0010] Furthermore, the feeding mechanism includes a positioning rod, and the upper surface of the rotating rod is provided with a through hole. The positioning rod is engaged inside the through hole of the rotating rod. Four sets of connecting rods are installed on the outer surface of the positioning rod. A metal screen is installed on one side of each of the four sets of connecting rods. The positions of the four sets of connecting rods are respectively set at the top of the four sets of arc-shaped stirring rods.
[0011] Furthermore, a U-shaped hook is installed on the upper surface of the positioning rod.
[0012] Furthermore, a fixing ring is installed on the upper surface of the four sets of connecting rods, and the fixing ring is located at the top of the four sets of metal screens.
[0013] Furthermore, the limiting mechanism includes a fixing rod, which is installed on the outer surface of the mixing chamber. A groove is provided on the side of the fixing rod away from the mixing chamber. A limiting rod is slidably connected inside the groove of the fixing rod with damping. A groove is provided on the outer surface of the fixing ring. The end of the limiting rod near the mixing chamber is slidably connected inside the groove of the fixing ring.
[0014] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:
[0015] 1. This utility model uses a starting motor to drive a rotating rod and four sets of arc-shaped stirring rods to rotate. One side of the rotation path of the four sets of arc-shaped stirring rods is designed as an arc-shaped shoe surface. As the four sets of arc-shaped stirring rods rotate inside the mixing chamber, they cause the hay accumulated at the bottom of the mixing chamber to move upward along the inclined surface of the four sets of arc-shaped stirring rods. This makes it less likely for the hay to collide with the mixing mechanism during the subsequent tumbling and slurry coating process, thus minimizing damage to the hay during production and improving the practicality of the device.
[0016] 2. This utility model involves pouring hawthorns onto the upper surface of four sets of metal screens, allowing the hawthorns to fall through the mesh of the screens into the mixing chamber. Four connecting rods are positioned directly above four sets of curved stirring rods, restricting the movement of the hawthorns as they fall into the mixing chamber. This minimizes the risk of damage during the pouring process caused by collisions between the hawthorns and the tips of the curved stirring rods. Attached Figure Description

[0026] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, a hawthorn ball forming device includes a forming device body 1, which includes a mixing chamber 101. A through hole is provided on the lower surface of the mixing chamber 101. A mixing mechanism 2 is installed inside the through hole to flexibly mix the hawthorns accumulated inside the mixing chamber 101. A through hole is provided on the upper surface of the mixing mechanism 2, and a feeding mechanism 3 is installed inside the through hole. A limiting mechanism 4 is provided on the outer surface of the mixing chamber 101. Specifically, by activating the mixing mechanism 2, the hawthorns inside the mixing chamber 101 are rotated and coated with slurry along the surface of the mixing mechanism 2. This prevents the hawthorns from colliding with the mixing mechanism 2 during the rotation and coating process, thus minimizing damage to the hawthorns during production and improving the practicality of the device.
[0027] like Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the stirring mechanism 2 includes a motor 203, which is mounted on the lower surface of the stirring chamber 101. The output shaft of the motor 203 passes through the internal through-hole of the stirring chamber 101 and a rotating rod 201 is mounted thereon. Four sets of arc-shaped stirring rods 202 are provided on the outer surface of the rotating rod 201. The lower surfaces of the four sets of arc-shaped stirring rods 202 all abut against the bottom of the inner wall of the stirring chamber 101, and the sides of the four sets of arc-shaped stirring rods 202 away from the rotating rod 201 abut against the inner wall of the stirring chamber 101. Specifically, the rotating rod 201 is driven by starting the motor 203. The device rotates four sets of arc-shaped stirring rods 202. One side of the rotation path of the four sets of arc-shaped stirring rods 202 is set as an arc-shaped shoe surface. As the four sets of arc-shaped stirring rods 202 rotate inside the mixing chamber 101, they drive the slag accumulated at the bottom of the inner wall of the mixing chamber 101 to move upward along the inclined surface of the four sets of arc-shaped stirring rods 202. This makes it less likely for the hawthorn to collide with the stirring mechanism 2 during the subsequent tumbling and slurry coating process, thereby minimizing damage to the hawthorn during the production process and improving the practicality of the device.
[0028] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, the feeding mechanism 3 includes a positioning rod 301. A through hole is formed on the upper surface of the rotating rod 201. The positioning rod 301 is engaged inside the through hole of the rotating rod 201. Four sets of connecting rods 302 are installed on the outer surface of the positioning rod 301. A metal screen 303 is installed on one side of each of the four sets of connecting rods 302. The four sets of connecting rods 302 are positioned directly above the four sets of arc-shaped stirring rods 202. Specifically, by tilting the hawthorns, the hawthorns are tilted onto the upper surface of the four sets of metal screens 303, causing the hawthorns to move along the... The four sets of metal screens 303 have their internal mesh openings falling into the mixing chamber 101. Then, the four sets of connecting rods 302 are positioned at the top of the four sets of arc-shaped stirring rods 202. This restricts the movement path of the hawthorns falling into the mixing chamber 101, thereby minimizing the risk of damage to the hawthorns during the feeding process when workers pour them into the mixing chamber 101, as the hawthorns collide with the top tips of the four sets of arc-shaped stirring rods 202.
[0029] like Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, a U-shaped hook 6 is installed on the upper surface of the positioning rod 301. Specifically, by pulling the U-shaped hook 6, the positioning rod 301 is moved upward, and the positioning rod 301 is disassembled from the through hole of the rotating rod 201. This eliminates the need for subsequent workers to pull the four sets of connecting rods 302 and the four sets of metal screens 303 during the disassembly of the moving feeding mechanism 3, thereby minimizing the risk of damage to the feeding mechanism 3 during disassembly and thus improving the service life of the feeding mechanism 3.
[0030] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, a fixing ring 5 is installed on the upper surface of the four sets of connecting rods 302. The fixing ring 5 is located at the top of the four sets of metal screens 303. Specifically, by positioning the fixing ring 5 at the top of the four sets of metal screens 303, the fixing ring 5 restricts the movement path of the hawthorn placed on the top of the four sets of metal screens 303, thereby minimizing the risk of the hawthorn rolling to the ground when workers pour the hawthorn onto the top surface of the four sets of metal screens 303.
[0031] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the limiting mechanism 4 includes a fixing rod 401, which is installed on the outer surface of the mixing chamber 101. A slot is provided on the side of the fixing rod 401 away from the mixing chamber 101. A limiting rod 402 is damped and slidably connected inside the slot of the fixing rod 401. A slot is provided on the outer surface of the fixing ring 5. The end of the limiting rod 402 near the mixing chamber 101 is slidably connected inside the slot of the fixing ring 5. Specifically, by pushing the limiting rod 402, the end of the limiting rod 402 near the mixing chamber 101 is connected to the slot of the fixing ring 5, so that the limiting mechanism 4 restricts the rotation position of the fixing ring 5 on the upper end of the molding device body 1. This avoids the subsequent positioning rod 301 being thrown out of the through hole of the rotating rod 201 under the action of the centrifugal force of the rotating rod 201, which would cause the feeding mechanism 3 to disconnect from the mixing mechanism 2 during the start-up process. Therefore, the stability of the feeding mechanism 3 during the idle placement process is improved.
[0032] In summary: By starting the motor 203, the rotating rod 201 and the four sets of arc-shaped stirring rods 202 are driven to rotate. One side of the rotation path of the four sets of arc-shaped stirring rods 202 is designed as an arc-shaped upper, so that as the four sets of arc-shaped stirring rods 202 rotate inside the mixing chamber 101, the slag accumulated at the bottom of the inner wall of the mixing chamber 101 moves upward along the inclined surface of the four sets of arc-shaped stirring rods 202. This makes it less likely for the hawthorns to collide with the stirring mechanism 2 during the subsequent tumbling and slurry application process, thus minimizing damage to the hawthorns during production. By tilting the hawthorns... The hawthorns are poured onto the upper surface of four sets of metal screens 303, allowing them to fall through the mesh of the screens into the mixing chamber 101. Four connecting rods 302 are positioned directly above the four sets of arc-shaped stirring rods 202, restricting the movement of the hawthorns as they fall into the mixing chamber 101. This minimizes the risk of damage during the pouring process, as the hawthorns collide with the tips of the arc-shaped stirring rods 202 when the hawthorns are poured into the mixing chamber.
[0033] At the same time, by pushing the limiting rod 402, the end of the limiting rod 402 near the mixing chamber 101 is connected to the slot of the fixed ring 5, so that the subsequent limiting mechanism 4 restricts the rotation position of the fixed ring 5 on the upper end of the molding device body 1, thereby avoiding the subsequent positioning rod 301 from being thrown out of the through hole of the rotating rod 201 under the action of the centrifugal force of the rotating rod 201, which would cause the feeding mechanism 3 to disconnect from the mixing mechanism 2 during the start-up process.
