Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of mechanical equipment for making steamed buns with skewers, and specifically relates to a skewer plate cleaning machine. Background Technology

[0002] High-efficiency and fast steamers have appeared on the market, and they are equipped with a special skewer tray. The purpose of this skewer tray is to fix the steamed buns in place and to allow for quick disassembly, making it convenient to operate.

[0003] The current technical problem is that, because steamed buns are a type of wheat-based food, when the buns are steamed and removed from the skewers, flour residue remains on the skewers, making them rough. Over time, this can cause the buns to become difficult to skewer and deform internally. To improve this, those skilled in the art typically clean the skewer trays by hand with a brush. However, cleaning the skewer trays by hand is too inefficient, resulting in a large accumulation of skewers and severely impacting production efficiency.

[0004] Therefore, in view of the shortcomings of the existing technology, those skilled in the art urgently need to improve the existing skewer plate cleaning method by designing specialized machinery to improve the cleaning accuracy and efficiency, and avoid the skewer plate cleaning becoming a bottleneck process. Utility Model Content

[0005] In view of the shortcomings of the prior art described above, this utility model proposes a skewer tray cleaning machine, which adopts a brush roller structure and is driven by a drive motor to clean the surface of the skewer tray inside the box, which can effectively improve the cleaning efficiency of the skewer tray.

[0006] The technical solution adopted by this utility model to solve its technical problem is:

[0007] A skewer cleaning machine includes a water tank containing one or more brush assemblies. Each brush assembly includes two brush rollers that rotate relative to each other. The surfaces of the brush rollers are covered with bristles. A drive device is located outside the water tank, which rotates the brush rollers within the brush assemblies. The water tank has a water inlet and a bottom drain outlet, with a drain valve at the bottom drain outlet.

[0008] The water tank is equipped with a liquid level sensor that is connected to an external water supply or alarm device. When the water tank is low on water, it can send an alert to the outside.

[0009] The drive device is a servo motor or a speed-regulating motor, and a control module is provided in conjunction with the drive device. The drive speed can be controlled through the control module.

[0010] The water tank is equipped with a heater and a temperature controller. The heater and temperature controller are connected to the control module to achieve automatic temperature control, and the heated water source can better wet and clean the skewer tray.

[0011] The water tank is provided with a front cover plate and a rear cover plate on the top, and the front cover plate is inclined toward the inside of the tank. In the brush assembly, the gap between the two topmost brush rollers is set toward the inclined surface of the front cover plate, which is to facilitate the guide of the skewer plate from the inclined surface of the front cover plate to the space between the two brush rollers.

[0012] The brush assembly consists of two units, with the centerlines of the two brush rollers forming a parallelogram structure. The squeegee disc passes through the joint between the two brush assemblies. When setting the water tank, the minimum water level must not be lower than that of the lowest brush assembly.

[0013] This invention has the following advantages: It features one or more brush assemblies inside the water tank, each assembly including two brush rollers that rotate relative to each other. A drive device is located outside the water tank, rotating the brush rollers within the assembly. The bristles on the brush rollers clean the dough from the skewer tray. The water tank also includes a water inlet and a bottom drain outlet for adding and draining water, respectively. A drain valve on the bottom drain outlet controls the drainage from the water tank.

[0014] This utility model has an improved structure, is simple to operate, and has high cleaning efficiency. It overcomes the technical problems in the prior art and is an ideal skewer plate cleaning machine. Attached Figure Description

[0021] The present invention will be further described below through embodiments. The following description is merely an exemplary explanation. Those skilled in the art can make further structural improvements based on the following explanation. The scope of protection of this patent shall be determined by the scope set forth in the claims.

[0022] Example 1:

[0023] A skewer tray cleaning machine is used to clean the surface of skewers 71 on a skewer tray 7, wherein the skewer tray 7 is as follows: Figure 4 As shown.

[0024] As shown in the figure, it includes a water tank 1, which is supported by a support frame. The bottom of the support frame is equipped with casters 3 to allow for flexible movement of the entire skewer cleaning machine. The water tank 1 is equipped with a water inlet 15 and a bottom drain outlet 8, with a drain valve 81 installed at the bottom drain outlet 8. This invention connects the water inlet 15 to an external water pipe or water pump. A liquid level sensor is installed inside the water tank 1 and connected to the external water pipe valve, water pump, or alarm device. When the water tank 1 is low on water, it can alert the outside and replenish water.

[0025] The water tank 1 is equipped with a heater 9 and a temperature controller. The heater 9 and the temperature controller are connected to the control module 14 and realize automatic temperature control. The heated water source can better wet and clean the skewer tray, and the warm water is more suitable for the operator.

[0026] The water tank 1 contains one or more brush groups. In this embodiment, two brush groups are provided: an upper brush group 5 and a lower brush group 6. The upper brush group 5 and the lower brush group 6 have identical structures, each consisting of two brush rollers. Taking the upper brush group 5 as an example, it includes an upper brush roller 51 and a lower brush roller 52. Brush bristles are provided on the surfaces of the two brush rollers. The upper brush roller 51 and the lower brush roller 52 rotate relative to each other, with the bristles arranged in a crisscross pattern. The dough is removed by rubbing the bristles against the skewers 71 on the skewer tray 7. The water tank 1 is used to humidify the skewers, causing the dough on their surface to become wet and loose.

[0027] A drive device is provided on the outside of the water tank 1. In this embodiment, a servo motor 4 is used as the drive device to drive the brush rollers in the brush assembly to rotate. This utility model is equipped with a control module 14 in conjunction with the servo motor 4. The control module 14 is fixed to the top surface of the water tank 1 by a column 13. The operator can control the speed of the servo motor 4 through the control module 14. The control module can also control functions such as temperature, motor drive power, and leakage protection. The leakage protection principle is the same as that of existing mechanical equipment and will not be described in detail here.

[0028] During driver operation, such as Figure 3 As shown, the upper brush group 5 and the lower brush group 6 extend to the side of the water tank 1 respectively. The servo motor 4 is equipped with a drive sprocket 41. The two brush rollers on the lower brush group 6 are respectively equipped with a double-row drive gear 57, gear II 56, and gear I 54. The two brush rollers on the upper brush group 5 are respectively equipped with a first drive gear 53 and a second drive gear 55. The double-row drive gear 57 is connected to the drive sprocket 41 and the second drive gear 55 respectively through a chain. Gear I 54 meshes with gear II 56. The first drive gear 53 and the gear coaxially arranged on gear I 54 are connected by a chain. With this structure, the upper brush group 5 and the lower brush group 6 can be synchronously driven under the drive of the servo motor 4. In a typical design, the water level in the water tank 1 should not be lower than the lowest brush group. That is, the water in the water tank 1 needs to soak the bristles on the lower brush group 6. When the lower brush group 6 rotates, it can roll the water onto the upper brush group 5, so that the entire upper brush group 5 and the lower brush group 6 are in a wet state.

[0029] In this invention, the centerlines of the two brush rollers form a parallelogram structure, such as... Figure 2 As shown, the skewer plate 7 passes through the gap between the two brush groups, and the skewer 71 cleans by the friction of the brush bristles.

[0030] Example 2:

[0031] Based on the structure of Embodiment 1, and considering the safety of this equipment, the top of the water tank 1 needs to be partially sealed to prevent unauthorized external objects from entering the equipment. Figure 1 As shown, the top of the water tank 1 is provided with a front cover plate 12 and a rear cover plate 11. The front cover plate 12 is inclined toward the inside of the tank body 1, and the top of the rear cover plate 11 is horizontal.

[0032] In the brush assembly, the gap between the topmost upper brush roller 51 and the lower brush roller 52 is positioned towards the inclined surface of the front cover plate 12. This arrangement facilitates the guidance of the skewer disc 7 from the inclined surface of the front cover plate between the two brush rollers. This design improves both efficiency and safety, making operation easier for the operator.

[0033] Furthermore, after adopting the above structure, the present invention can also have a controller for the servo motor inside the control module 14. When the driving resistance of the servo motor 4 increases instantaneously, it means that a large foreign object has entered between the upper brush roller 51 and the lower brush roller 52. In order to avoid work-related accidents, when the controller receives the resistance signal, it controls the servo motor 4 to stop for protection through the control module 14. This structure can be referred to as the emergency stop control structure on the machine tool, and will not be described in detail here.

[0034] This invention provides a protective cover 2 at the drive end of the servo motor 4 and on the side of the housing. The protective cover 2 protects the end drive chain and prevents personnel or foreign objects from getting caught in it.

[0035] This utility model has an improved structure, is simple to operate, and has high cleaning efficiency. It overcomes the technical problems in the prior art and is an ideal skewer plate cleaning machine.
