Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of bread pattern printing, specifically to a surface pattern printing device for bread production. Background Technology

[0002] The dough pattern stamp is an innovative baking tool that instantly transforms ordinary dough into something vibrant and interesting. Made from food-grade materials, it is safe, non-toxic, durable, and easy to clean. Its ingenious design allows you to easily press various beautiful patterns onto dough, such as animals, plants, and festive elements, adding endless creativity and charm to your baked goods.

[0003] According to Chinese Patent CN214339715U, an automated and efficient bread production line includes a frame and a printing mechanism. The frame contains a conveyor belt for transporting bread. The printing mechanism includes a mounting plate, a pattern plate, a storage box, and a baffle. The pattern plate is detachably connected to the mounting plate located on the inner wall of the frame. The pattern plate has a hollow structure, is flush with the mounting plate, and is positioned above the bread. The storage box and the baffle are connected and slidably cover the upper and lower surfaces of the mounting plate, respectively. The storage box is inverted on the mounting plate with its opening facing downwards. Flour is stored in the storage cavity of the storage box, and the flour in the storage box can be moved onto the pattern plate. The dimensions of the baffle and the storage box correspond to the dimensions of the pattern plate.

[0004] In the above solution, the flour is stored in the storage chamber inside the storage box, which still has the following disadvantages: the storage box is located inside the machine frame. When the flour inside the storage box is used up, the storage box needs to be taken out from inside the machine frame for replenishment, which increases the processing time and reduces the efficiency of stamping the dough pattern. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a surface pattern printing device for bread production, which solves the problem that when the flour inside the storage box is used up, the storage box needs to be removed from the machine frame for replenishment, which increases processing time and reduces the efficiency of dough pattern printing.

[0006] To achieve the above-mentioned utility model objectives, the present utility model adopts the following technical solution: a surface pattern printing device for bread production, comprising an installation groove, a conveyor belt disposed inside the installation groove, an installation folding plate fixed to the top surface of the installation groove, a cylinder fixed to the top surface of the installation folding plate, a mounting plate fixed to the bottom end of the installation folding plate via the telescopic rod of the cylinder, a plurality of printing plates detachably disposed on the bottom surface of the mounting plate, a sliding plate slidably disposed inside the installation folding plate, a storage groove opened on the top surface of the sliding plate, a sliding opening opened on one side of the installation folding plate, the sliding plate slidably inserted into the sliding opening, a motor fixed to one side of the installation folding plate, a long screw fixed to one end of the output shaft of the motor, the long screw being threadedly connected to the sliding plate, and a microcontroller disposed on the top surface of the installation folding plate.

[0007] Preferably, the top surface of the mounting plate has two sliding holes, and the top surface of the mounting plate has two sliding rods fixed thereon, with the sliding holes and sliding rods slidably inserted into each other.

[0008] Preferably, the bottom surface of the mounting plate is fixed with a plurality of threaded posts, and the top surface of the printing plate is provided with a loading and unloading groove, wherein the threaded posts are threadedly connected to the loading and unloading groove.

[0009] Preferably, a protective arc plate is detachably provided on one side of the mounting plate, and a plurality of rotating holes are provided on one side of the protective arc plate. A fixing bolt is inserted into the rotating hole. A plurality of threaded grooves are provided on one side of the mounting plate, and one end of the fixing bolt passes through the rotating hole and is threadedly connected to the threaded groove.

[0010] Preferably, two support plates are fixed inside the mounting groove, and several partition plates are provided inside the mounting groove. The bottom surfaces of the two ends of the partition plates are fixed to the top surfaces of the two support plates, and the several partition plates are equidistantly distributed inside the mounting groove.

[0011] Preferably, a fixing plate is fixed inside the mounting groove, a placement groove is opened on the top surface of the fixing plate, a plurality of pressure sensors are arranged on the bottom surface of the placement groove, a pressing plate is slidably arranged inside the placement groove, the bottom surface of the pressing plate is in contact with the top surface of the pressure sensor, and the top surface of the pressing plate is in contact with the top surface of the conveyor belt.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the surface pattern printing device for bread production that adopts the above technical solution has the following beneficial effects:

[0013] First, the staff places the dough on the conveyor belt, which then moves the dough. When the dough enters the conveyor belt on the bottom of the mounting plate, the cylinder's telescopic rod extends and pushes the mounting plate downwards, causing the printing plate to imprint on the top of the dough. After the pattern is imprinted, the cylinder's telescopic rod retracts, moving the mounting plate upwards. When the mounting plate moves above the sliding plate, the motor starts working, driving the long screw to rotate. The rotating long screw, through its threaded connection with the sliding plate, causes the sliding plate to slide laterally inside the sliding opening and move directly below the mounting plate. Then, the cylinder starts again, and the downward-extending telescopic rod of the cylinder moves the mounting plate downwards again, causing the printing plate to enter the storage tank filled with edible pigment. This automatically replenishes the edible pigment consumed by the printing plate during pattern imprinting, increasing the efficiency of imprinting on the dough.

[0014] 2. When the mounting plate slides up and down inside the mounting folding plate, the sliding rod will slide synchronously inside the sliding hole, which can increase the stability of the mounting plate when sliding up and down. When the long screw is rotating, the protective arc plate will protect the long screw and the motor inside, preventing the staff from contacting the rotating long screw and increasing the safety of the staff. At the same time, the printing plate can be removed and replaced from the threaded column by rotation, which increases the diversity of the types of dough printing.

[0015] Third, when the worker places the dough on the conveyor belt, the space on top of the conveyor belt is divided into four equal spaces by three partitions. Therefore, the worker can place the dough in different spaces to avoid interference between adjacent doughs when stamping. When the dough passes the conveyor belt above the pressing plate, the weight of the dough will exert a downward force on the pressing plate. At this time, the pressure sensor will send an electrical signal to the microcontroller after sensing the pressure. Then the microcontroller will send an electrical signal to the cylinder. Then the conveyor belt will stop working, and the cylinder will start working after receiving the electrical signal, thereby increasing the accuracy of stamping the dough.

[0022] The preferred embodiments of this utility model will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0023] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, a surface pattern printing device for bread production includes a mounting groove 1, a conveyor belt 2 inside the mounting groove 1, a mounting plate 3 fixed to the top surface of the mounting groove 1, a cylinder 4 fixed to the top surface of the mounting plate 3, a mounting plate 5 fixed to the bottom end of the mounting plate 3 via the telescopic rod of the cylinder 4, and a plurality of printing plates 6 detachably mounted on the bottom surface of the mounting plate 5. A sliding plate 7 is slidably mounted inside the mounting plate 3, a storage groove 8 is opened on the top surface of the sliding plate 7, a sliding opening 9 is opened on one side of the mounting plate 3, the sliding plate 7 is slidably inserted into the sliding opening 9, a motor 10 is fixed to one side of the mounting plate 3, a long screw 11 is fixed to one end of the output shaft of the motor 10, the long screw 11 is threadedly connected to the sliding plate 7, and a microcontroller (model STM32) is mounted on the top surface of the mounting plate 3. The cylinder 4 and the motor 10 are electrically connected to the microcontroller.

[0024] In operation, the worker first places the dough on the conveyor belt 2, which then moves the dough. When the dough enters the bottom of the mounting plate 3, the telescopic rod of the cylinder 4 extends and pushes the mounting plate 5 downward, causing the printing plate 6 to imprint on the top surface of the dough. After the pattern is imprinted, the telescopic rod of the cylinder 4 retracts, causing the mounting plate 5 to move upward. When the mounting plate 5 moves upward past the sliding plate 7, the motor 10 starts working, driving the long screw 11 to rotate. The rotating long screw 11, through its threaded connection with the sliding plate 7, causes the sliding plate 7 to slide laterally inside the sliding opening 9 and move directly below the mounting plate 5. Then, the cylinder 4 starts again, and the telescopic rod of the cylinder 4 extends downward again, causing the mounting plate 5 to move downward, thus moving the printing plate 6 into the storage tank 8 filled with edible pigment. This automatically replenishes the edible pigment consumed by the printing plate 6 during pattern imprinting, increasing the efficiency of dough imprinting.

[0025] like Figure 3 As shown, the top surface of the mounting plate 3 has two sliding holes 12, and the top surface of the mounting plate 5 has two sliding rods 13 fixed. The sliding holes 12 and the sliding rods 13 are slidably inserted. The bottom surface of the mounting plate 5 has several threaded posts 14 fixed. The top surface of the printing plate 6 has a loading and unloading groove 15. The threaded posts 14 are threadedly connected to the loading and unloading groove 15. A protective arc plate 16 is detachably installed on one side of the mounting plate 3. A number of rotating holes 17 are opened on one side of the protective arc plate 16. A fixing bolt 18 is rotatably inserted into the rotating hole 17. A number of threaded grooves 19 are opened on one side of the mounting plate 3. One end of the fixing bolt 18 passes through the rotating hole 17 and is threadedly connected to the threaded groove 19.

[0026] During use, when the mounting plate 5 slides up and down inside the mounting folding plate 3, the sliding rod 13 will slide synchronously inside the sliding hole 12, thereby increasing the stability of the mounting plate 5 when sliding up and down. When the long screw 11 is rotating, the protective arc plate 16 will protect the long screw 11 and the motor 10 inside, preventing the operator from contacting the rotating long screw 11 and increasing the operator's safety. At the same time, the printing plate 6 can be removed and replaced from the threaded post 14 by rotation, increasing the diversity of the types of dough printing stamps.

[0027] like Figure 2 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, two support plates 20 are fixed inside the mounting groove 1. Several partition plates 21 are provided inside the mounting groove 1. The bottom surfaces of the two ends of the partition plates 21 are fixed to the top surfaces of the two support plates 20 respectively. The partition plates 21 are equidistantly distributed inside the mounting groove 1. A fixing plate 22 is fixed inside the mounting groove 1. A placement groove 23 is opened on the top surface of the fixing plate 22. Several pressure sensors 24 are provided on the bottom surface of the placement groove 23. A pressing plate 25 is slidably arranged inside the placement groove 23. The bottom surface of the pressing plate 25 is in contact with the top surface of the pressure sensor 24. The top surface of the pressing plate 25 is in contact with the top surface of the conveyor belt 2. The pressure sensor 24 is electrically connected to the microcontroller. The conveyor belt 2 is electrically connected to the microcontroller.

[0028] In use, when the worker places the dough on the conveyor belt 2, the space on the top surface of the conveyor belt 2 is divided into four equal spaces by three partition plates 21. Therefore, the worker can place the dough in different spaces to avoid interference between adjacent doughs when stamping. When the dough passes the conveyor belt 2 above the pressing plate 25, the weight of the dough will exert a downward force on the pressing plate 25. At this time, the pressure sensor 24 will send an electrical signal to the microcontroller after sensing the pressure. Then the microcontroller will send an electrical signal to the cylinder 4 and the conveyor belt 2. Then the conveyor belt 2 will stop working, and the cylinder 4 will start working after receiving the electrical signal, thereby increasing the accuracy of stamping the dough.

[0029] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or changes made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model, based on the technical solution and the inventive concept of the present utility model, should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
