[0017] The embodiments of this utility model are described in detail below. Examples of these embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and intended to explain this utility model, and should not be construed as limiting this utility model.

[0019] This utility model provides a coagulation bucket with a tilting mechanism, including a base 101 and a rotating positioning and guiding assembly. The rotating positioning and guiding assembly includes a support frame 102, a rotating frame 103, a connecting plate 104, a bucket body 105, a positioning plate 111, a guiding channel 112, a telescopic frame 108, a telescopic cover 109, a buckle 110, a storage rack 106, and an inlet pipe 107. This solution solves the problem that existing coagulation tilting equipment lacks a positioning and protection device, requiring manual positioning and collection of the bean curd during tilting, which makes it difficult to guarantee the hygiene of the produced bean curd. It is understood that the aforementioned solution can, during the production of bean curd, use the... The feed pipe 107 introduces soy milk and coagulant into the container 105 through different interfaces in proportion. The rack 106 provides stable support for the feed pipe 107 to ensure a smooth feeding process. After the raw materials are poured in, the telescopic cover 109 is closed on top of the container 105 using the buckle 110, keeping the container 105 in a closed state and providing a stable environment for the coagulation of the tofu. Once the tofu has solidified in the container 105, the telescopic cover 109 is opened, releasing the buckle 110. The telescopic cover 109 is then retracted upwards along the telescopic frame 108. Finally, it is closed by external force or a driving device. The action is applied to the rotating frame 103. Since the rotating frame 103 is rotatably connected to the connecting plate 104, and the connecting plate 104 is fixedly connected to the barrel 105, the rotation of the rotating frame 103 can cause the barrel 105 to rotate around the connection point between the connecting plate 104 and the rotating frame 103. During the rotation of the barrel 105, the positioning plate 111 plays a positioning role, guiding the solidified tofu inside the barrel 105 to move accurately towards the guide channel 112. When the barrel 105 rotates to a suitable angle, the tofu slides out of the barrel 105 under the action of gravity and passes through the positioning plate 111. After being guided, the bean curd falls into the guide channel 112, and is then transported to the subsequent processing steps through the guide channel 112. The entire process does not require direct manual contact with the bean curd for positioning and collection, effectively ensuring the hygienic quality of the bean curd. After completing one bean curd production and pouring cycle, the barrel 105 can be rotated back to the initial position, and raw materials can be added again through the feed pipe 107. The above operation is repeated to achieve continuous production. This effectively solves the problem that existing solidification and pouring equipment, due to the lack of positioning and protection devices, requires manual positioning and collection of bean curd during pouring, resulting in difficulty in ensuring the hygiene of the produced bean curd.

[0020] In this specific embodiment, the support frame 102 is detachably connected to the base 101 and is located on the upper side of the base 101. The rotating frame 103 is detachably connected to the support frame 102 and is located at the center of one side of the support frame 102, and the rotating frame 103 is perpendicular to the support frame 102. The connecting plate 104 is rotatably connected to the rotating frame 103 and is located on the side of the rotating frame 103 away from the support frame 102. The barrel 105 is fixedly connected to the connecting plate 104 and is located on the side of the connecting plate 104 away from the rotating frame 103. The positioning plate 111 is detachably connected to the base 101 and is located at the upper center of the base 101, and the positioning plate 111... 1. The guide groove 112 is fixedly connected to the base 101 and located inside the base 101 on one side of the support frame 102. The guide groove 112 is located below the positioning plate 111 on the side away from the support frame 102 and installed on the upper side of the base 101 to ensure a firm connection. Then, the rotating frame 103 is detachably installed at the center of one side of the support frame 102, so that the rotating frame 103 is perpendicular to the support frame 102. Then, the connecting plate 104 is rotatably connected to the rotating frame 103. Finally, the barrel 105 is fixed on the side of the connecting plate 104 away from the rotating frame 103. At this point, the main body of the rotating positioning guide assembly is installed.

[0021] The telescopic frame 108 is detachably connected to the base 101 and is located above the base 101. The telescopic frame 108 is located on the side of the barrel 105 away from the support frame 102. The telescopic frame 108 is also located on the side of the positioning plate 111 away from the guide channel 112. The telescopic cover 109 is detachably connected to the telescopic frame 108 and is located on the side above the telescopic frame 108. The telescopic cover 109 is located above the barrel 105.

[0022] Secondly, the buckle 110 is fixedly connected to the telescopic cover 109 and is located below the telescopic cover 109. The buckle 110 is set as an elastic spring. By utilizing the elastic spring characteristics of the buckle 110, it is ensured that the telescopic cover 109 can not only tightly cover the barrel 105, but also facilitate opening and closing.

[0023] Meanwhile, the shelf 106 is detachably connected to the support frame 102 and is located on the upper side inside the support frame 102. The shelf 106 is positioned above the rotating frame 103 and is also horizontally positioned with the support frame 102.

[0024] In addition, the feed pipe 107 is detachably connected to the shelf 106 and is located above the shelf 106. The feed pipe 107 is perpendicular to the support frame 102. The feed pipe 107 is a T-shaped pipe. The feed pipe 107 is installed above the shelf 106 so that it is perpendicular to the support frame 102. Since the feed pipe 107 is a T-shaped pipe, it is convenient to introduce raw materials such as soy milk and coagulant into the bucket 105 respectively.

[0025] When using this invention to produce dried bean curd, soy milk and coagulant are introduced into the container 105 through the feed pipe 107 in proportion from different interfaces. The rack 106 provides stable support for the feed pipe 107 to ensure a smooth feeding process. After the raw materials are poured in, the telescopic cover 109 is closed on top of the container 105 using the buckle 110, keeping the container 105 in a closed state and providing a stable environment for the coagulation process of the dried bean curd. Once the dried bean curd has solidified in the container 105... After solidification and molding, open the telescopic cover 109 to release the fixing effect of the buckle 110, and retract the telescopic cover 109 upwards along the telescopic frame 108. Then, by applying external force or a driving device to the rotating frame 103, since the rotating frame 103 is rotatably connected to the connecting plate 104, and the connecting plate 104 is fixedly connected to the barrel body 105, the rotation of the rotating frame 103 can drive the barrel body 105 to rotate around the connecting plate 104 and the rotating frame 108. The connection point of 3 is flipped. During the flipping process of the barrel 105, the positioning plate 111 plays a positioning role, guiding the solidified bean curd inside the barrel 105 to move accurately towards the guide channel 112. When the barrel 105 is flipped to a suitable angle, the bean curd slides out of the barrel 105 under the action of gravity, and after being guided by the positioning plate 111, it falls into the guide channel 112. Then, the bean curd is transported to the subsequent processing step through the guide channel 112. The whole process does not require manual contact with the bean curd for positioning and collection, which effectively ensures the hygiene quality of the bean curd. After completing one bean curd production and pouring, the barrel 105 can be rotated back to the initial position, and raw materials can be added again through the feed pipe 107. The above operation is repeated to achieve continuous production. In this way, while retaining the original beneficial effects, it actively and effectively solves the problem that the existing solidification and pouring equipment lacks a positioning and protection device, which requires manual positioning and collection of bean curd during pouring, resulting in difficulty in ensuring the hygiene of the produced bean curd.

[0026] The above-disclosed embodiments are merely preferred embodiments of the present utility model and should not be construed as limiting the scope of the present utility model. Those skilled in the art can understand that implementing all or part of the above-described embodiments and making equivalent changes in accordance with the claims of the present utility model are still within the scope of the utility model.
