[0002] Soft candy is made from sugar and starch syrup as the main raw materials, and agar, modified starch, gelatin and pectin as coagulants. It is made through processes such as boiling and shaping. It is a candy with high moisture content and soft texture. After production, it needs to be granulated by granulation equipment.

[0003] However, when existing gummy candy granulation equipment is used to granulate gummy candies, the high moisture content, soft texture, and stickiness of the candies often cause them to stick to the blades and be carried away by the blades, affecting the blades' performance and consequently impacting subsequent cutting of the gummy candies, thus reducing the equipment's efficiency. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a gummy candy granulating device that utilizes vibration to arrange the gummy candies neatly by gravity, and the vibration prevents the gummy candies from sticking together, thus performing mechanical granulation with uniform granule size and improving work efficiency.

[0019] To further understand the utility model content, features and effects of this utility model, the following embodiments are provided, and detailed descriptions are given in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0020] Please also refer to Figures 1 to 3 The following is a detailed description of the gummy candy cutting device according to an embodiment of the present invention, with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0021] The gummy candy granulating device includes a granulating box 1, a gummy candy placement platform 2, a lifting component 3, and a cutting component 4. The upper end of the granulating box 1 is open, and a lifting frame 5 is fixed to the upper end. The lifting component 3 is installed on the lifting frame 5. The bottom of the lifting component 3 is connected to the gummy candy placement platform 2. The cutting component 4 is located on one side of the granulating box 1. A through slot 6 is opened on the side of the granulating box 1 corresponding to the cutting component 4 for the cutting component 4 to extend into.

A door panel 9 is hinged to one side of the collection box 8 corresponding to the side of the granulating box 1.

[0022] Specifically, the lifting assembly 3 includes a crossbar 10 rotatably connected to the lifting frame 5, a suspension rope 11 wrapped around the outside of the crossbar 10, and a first motor 12 fixed to one end of the crossbar 10. The first motor 12 is fixed to the side of the lifting frame 5.

[0023] Specifically, the drive assembly 7 includes a bracket 13 fixed to the side of the pelletizing box 1. A slide rail 14 is fixed to the upper end of the bracket 13. A sliding block 15 is slidably connected inside the slide rail 14. A screw 16 is threadedly connected inside the sliding block 15. Both ends of the screw 16 are rotatably connected inside the slide rail 14. One end extends out of the slide rail 14, and a second motor 17 is fixed to the extended end.

[0024] Specifically, the cutting assembly 4 includes a fixed base 18 fixed to the upper end of the sliding block 15, and a chain cutter 19 is fixed inside the fixed base 18. The chain cutter 19 extends into the granulation box 1 and is the same width distance as the candy placement platform 2.

[0025] The aforementioned chain cutter 19 is a device that is currently available on the market.

[0026] Specifically, the bottom of the candy placement platform 2 is provided with through holes 20. There are several through holes 20, which are evenly distributed on the bottom of the candy placement platform 2. The bottom of the candy placement platform 2 is also fixed with a vibration motor 21.

The first motor 12 is turned on to drive the crossbar 10 to rotate. When the crossbar 10 rotates, the hanging rope 11 is lowered, and the gummy candy placement platform 2 moves downward. When the bottom of the gummy candy placement platform 2 comes into contact with the limit switch 22, the limit switch 22 controls the first motor 12 to turn off, and the gummy candy placement platform 2 stops descending. At this time, the vibration motor 21 is turned on, causing the gummy candies inside the gummy candy placement platform 2 to tend to extend downward until the bottom of the gummy candy placement platform 2 is exposed inside the through hole 20. The chain cutter 19 is turned on, and at the same time the second motor 17 is turned on to drive the screw 10 to rotate. The chain cutter 19 moves back and forth to cut off the gummy candies, which fall into the collection box 8.
