[0023] The technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present invention.

[0024] Please see Figure 1-5 As shown, this utility model is a rice cake slicing and forming device, including a device trough 10, with support legs 14 fixedly installed at the four corners of the bottom end of the device trough 10, and a transmission belt 11 for transporting rice cakes installed inside the cavity of the device trough 10; a protective cover 12, located above the device trough 10, for protecting the blades; a quick-release structure, which is set between the protective cover 12 and the device trough 10, and includes a recess 13, a limiting post 16, and a buckle; a rolling cylinder 15 is movably installed inside the cavity of the protective cover 12 for providing downward pressure to the rice cakes, and an elastic lifting unit is provided between the rolling cylinder 15 and the protective cover 12, the elastic lifting unit including a guide rod 20 and a compression spring 21.

[0025] Specifically, the main body of the device consists of an equipment slot 10, support legs 14, a transmission belt 11, and a slicing mechanism. During the slicing process, the cutter is directly exposed to the outside environment, posing a safety hazard. Therefore, this application provides a protective cover 12 above the equipment slot 10. The protective cover 12 covers the cutter, effectively eliminating the safety hazard and preventing accidental injury to operators. By providing a quick-release structure between the protective cover 12 and the equipment slot 10, the protective cover 12 can be easily installed and removed, facilitating the addition of it to existing devices. Furthermore, it makes it easier to remove the protective cover 12 when replacing or maintaining the cutter later. A rolling cylinder 15 provides downward pressure to the rice cake, reducing shaking and vibration during the cutting process and improving cutting quality. By providing an elastic lifting unit, it can adapt to processing rice cakes of different thicknesses. The reasonable structural design enhances the practicality of this device.

[0026] Among them, such as Figure 1-3 As shown, a slicing mechanism for slicing rice cakes is also provided inside the equipment slot 10.

[0027] It should be noted that the slicing mechanism is used to continuously slice the rice cake. The slicing mechanism is disclosed in the prior art of a rice cake slicing and forming equipment for food processing (Announcement No.: CN112476508B), which is prior art and will not be described in detail here.

[0028] Among them, such as Figure 4 As shown, the recessed blocks 13 are fixedly installed on both sides of the outer wall of the equipment tank 10, and the limiting posts 16 are fixedly installed on both sides of the bottom end of the protective cover 12. The limiting posts 16 movably pass through the corresponding recessed blocks 13, and the buckle is cylindrical. The buckle movably passes through the corresponding recessed blocks 13 and the limiting posts 16.

[0029] Specifically, by fixing the recess 13 to the outer wall of the equipment slot 10, the limiting post 16 is fixedly installed on both sides of the bottom end of the protective cover 12. The limiting post 16 moves through the corresponding recess 13, and the buckle is cylindrical. The buckle moves through the corresponding recess 13 and the limiting post 16, thereby fixing the protective cover 12 to the equipment slot 10, making installation and disassembly more convenient.

[0030] An observation slot is provided on the right side of the protective cover 12, and a glass 22 is fixedly installed inside the observation slot.

[0031] Specifically, by opening an observation slot on the right side of the protective cover 12, and installing a glass 22 inside the observation slot, the operator can see the process of the cutter cutting the rice cake through the glass 22.

[0032] Among them, such as Figure 5 As shown, both sides of the protective cover 12 are provided with lifting grooves 18. The elastic lifting unit is located in the cavity of the lifting groove 18. The guide rod 20 is fixedly installed vertically in the corresponding lifting groove 18. The axis of the rolling cylinder 15 is fixedly penetrated by a rotating shaft 17, and both ends of the rotating shaft 17 are fixedly connected to sliders 19. The sliders 19 are movably engaged in the corresponding lifting groove 18, the guide rod 20 movably penetrates the corresponding slider 19, and the compression spring 21 is sleeved on the outer wall of the guide rod 20, with the compression spring 21 located above the slider 19.

[0033] Specifically, a guide rod 20 is installed inside the lifting groove 18. A rotating shaft 17 is fixedly inserted through the axis of the rolling cylinder 15. Both ends of the rotating shaft 17 are fixedly connected to sliders 19. The sliders 19 are movably engaged in the corresponding lifting groove 18. The guide rod 20 movably passes through the corresponding slider 19. When the rice cake passes under the rolling cylinder 15, the rolling cylinder 15 moves upward. A compression spring 21 is set on the outer wall of the guide rod 20. The compression spring 21 is located above the slider 19. The compression spring 21 provides a downward pressure to the rolling cylinder 15 through the slider 19 and also plays a role in resetting the slider 19.

[0034] The specific working principle of the rice cake slicing and forming device of this utility model is as follows: A protective cover 12 is set above the equipment slot 10. The protective cover 12 covers the cutter, which can effectively eliminate safety hazards and prevent workers from being accidentally injured during operation. By setting a quick-release structure between the protective cover 12 and the equipment slot 10, the protective cover 12 can be easily installed and removed, which is convenient for adding to the existing device. At the same time, it is easier to remove the protective cover 12 when replacing and maintaining the cutter later. A rolling cylinder 15 is set to provide downward pressure to the rice cake, reducing the shaking and vibration of the rice cake during the cutting process and improving the cutting quality. By setting an elastic lifting unit, it can adapt to the processing of rice cakes of different thicknesses.

[0035] The foregoing has shown and described the basic principles, main features, and advantages of this utility model. Those skilled in the art should understand that this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments.
