The outer wall of the lower mold 6 is provided with a groove 23 for the horizontal part of the L-shaped plate 501 to be inserted. The top surface of the mounting plate 3 is provided with a slot 24 for the bottom of the lower mold 6 to be inserted.
[0025] The operator places multiple xiaolongbao (soup dumplings) into the multiple receiving slots 7 located in the lower mold 6. At this time, the bottom of the connecting plate 901 abuts against the two support bars 17, and the top of the demolding column 902 abuts against the inner wall of the through groove 8, so that the xiaolongbao contact the top surface of the demolding column 902 and the inner wall of the receiving slot 7 respectively, so that the xiaolongbao are stably contained inside the lower mold 6. The bottom of the lower mold 6 is inserted into the slot 24, and the horizontal part of the L-shaped plate 501 is embedded in the groove 23 for clamping and mounting the lower mold 6 onto the mounting plate 3. Then, the motor 20 is started. The screw 21 rotates clockwise, and through the engagement of the screw 21 with the threaded groove 2 on the movable plate 18, the screw 21 rotates clockwise, causing the movable plate 18, the connecting plate 111, and multiple upper pressure blocks 112 to move downwards until the upper pressure blocks 112 gradually embed into the receiving groove 7 and press the xiaolongbao into shape. During the pressing process, the top surface of the demolding column 902 supports the xiaolongbao, and the connecting plate 901 is supported by two support bars 17 to prevent the upper pressure blocks 112 from pressing the xiaolongbao. During pressing, the xiaolongbao (soup dumpling) moves downwards and disengages from the receiving groove 7. During the pressing process, the pusher 103 is positioned directly above the mounting plate 3, and it does not contact the connecting plate 111 or the moving plate 18. After the xiaolongbao is formed, the starting motor 20 drives the lead screw 21 to rotate counterclockwise. As the lead screw 21 rotates counterclockwise, it drives the moving plate 18, the connecting plate 111, and multiple upper pressing blocks 112 upwards until the upper pressing blocks 112 no longer contact the xiaolongbao and disengage from the receiving groove 7. Then, the motor is started. The screw 14 drives the lead screw 15 to rotate clockwise, and the lead screw 15 engages with the threaded groove on the mounting part 16. When the lead screw 15 rotates clockwise, it drives the connecting plate 901, the mounting part 16 and the multiple demolding pillars 902 to move upward. When the demolding pillars 902 move upward, they gradually come into contact with the inner wall of the receiving groove 7 and push the xiaolongbao upward until the xiaolongbao is pushed out of the receiving groove 7. The top surface of the demolding pillar 902 is on the same plane as the top surface of the lower mold 6, which facilitates the demolding of the xiaolongbao from the lower mold 6.
[0026] When the top surface of the demolding column 902 and the top surface of the lower mold 6 are on the same plane, multiple formed xiaolongbao (soup dumplings) are located at the top of the lower mold 6. Then, the motor 22 is started, driving the lead screw to rotate clockwise. The lead screw 101 engages with the threaded groove 3 on the threaded block 102, causing the lead screw 101 to rotate clockwise, driving the threaded block 102 and the pusher 103 to move away from the mounting groove 12, until the pusher 103 contacts the top surface of the lower mold 6 and the top surface of the demolding column 902, and pushes the xiaolongbao. The process continues until multiple xiaolongbao (soup dumplings) detach from the lower mold 6 and the top surface of the demolding column 902 and pass through the drop gap 4, until the xiaolongbao fall onto the conveyor belt 2. The conveyor belt 2 then transports the multiple formed xiaolongbao until they pass through the passage gap formed between the support bar 17 and the conveyor belt 2. This allows for subsequent processing of the formed xiaolongbao, eliminating the need for frequent manual demolding of the xiaolongbao in the lower mold 6, saving manpower, and enabling the demolding of multiple xiaolongbao at once, thus improving the demolding efficiency of the xiaolongbao.
[0027] By pulling the L-shaped plate 501 toward the mounting strip 503, the spring 502 is gradually compressed and deformed until the horizontal part of the L-shaped plate 501 disengages from the groove 23, so that the multiple L-shaped plates 501 do not clamp the lower mold 6. Then, by pulling the lower mold 6 upward so that its bottom disengages from the slot 24, the lower mold 6 can be removed from the mounting plate 3 for cleaning. The bolts can be removed to disengage it from the threaded holes on the moving plate 18 and the connecting plate 111 respectively. Then, the connecting plate 111 and the upper pressure block 112 can be removed from the bottom of the moving plate 18 for cleaning.
[0028] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model. The protection scope of this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. All technical solutions falling within the scope of this utility model's concept are protected by this utility model. It should be noted that for those skilled in the art, any improvements and modifications made without departing from the principle of this utility model should also be considered within the protection scope of this utility model.
