The process of making pancakes involves multiple steps, including raw material preparation, batter preparation, spreading techniques, and preparation of auxiliary ingredients. A pancake flipping device is needed when spreading pancakes.
[0003] Existing devices typically require manual operation to flip pancakes. While this method can save costs, it is physically demanding and requires specialized personnel, wasting manpower. Furthermore, the temperature near the baking pan is high during the pancake baking process, making manual flipping extremely dangerous and prone to causing burns.
[0004] To address the aforementioned issues, there is an urgent need for innovative design based on the existing automatic flipping device structure for pancake processing. Utility Model Content

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: an automatic flipping device for pancake processing, comprising a base, a support frame fixedly installed on the upper end of the base, and a baking tray fixedly installed on the upper end of the support frame; a notch, the notch being formed inside the baking tray; further comprising: a clamping plate, the clamping plate being disposed inside the baking tray and penetrating through the inside of the notch; and an adjusting component, the adjusting component being connected to the clamping plate.
[0007] A clamping assembly is disposed on the outside of a clamping plate; a flipping assembly is disposed on the outside of a clamping plate; wherein, the adjusting assembly is used to adjust the position of the clamping plate; the clamping assembly is used to clamp and fix the pancake on the upper part of the clamping plate; and the flipping assembly is used to flip the clamping plate.
[0008] Preferably, the adjustment assembly includes a fixed frame, a first servo motor, a first threaded rod, a first threaded connector, and a first slide groove. The fixed frame is fixedly installed on the upper end of the base, and the first servo motor is fixedly installed on the outer side of the fixed frame. The output end of the first servo motor is fixedly connected to the first threaded rod, and the outer side of the first threaded rod is threadedly connected to the first threaded connector. The bottom of the first threaded connector is slidably connected to the inner side of the first slide groove, and the first slide groove is opened on the inner side of the fixed frame.
[0009] Preferably, the adjustment assembly further includes a shelf, a second servo motor, a second threaded rod, a second threaded connector, and a second slide groove. The shelf is fixedly installed on the outside of the first threaded connector, and the second servo motor is fixedly installed on the upper end of the shelf. The output end of the second servo motor is fixedly connected to the second threaded rod, and the second threaded rod is threadedly connected to the outside of the second threaded connector. The bottom of the second threaded connector is slidably connected to the inside of the second slide groove, and the second slide groove is opened on the inside of the shelf.
[0010] Preferably, the adjustment assembly further includes a connector and a rotating rod. The connector is fixedly connected to the upper end of the second threaded connector, and the rotating rod is rotatably connected to the inner side of the connector. The tail end of the rotating rod is connected to the clamping plate.
[0011] Preferably, the clamping assembly includes a hydraulic cylinder and a pressure plate. The hydraulic cylinder is fixedly installed on the outside of the clamping plate, and the output end of the hydraulic cylinder passes through the inside of the clamping plate. The output end of the hydraulic cylinder is fixedly connected to the pressure plate, and the pressure plate and the clamping plate are distributed vertically in correspondence.
[0012] Preferably, the flipping assembly includes a spiral spring, with its two ends connected to the connector and the end of the rotating rod, respectively.
[0013] Preferably, the flipping assembly further includes a gear and a rack, the gear being fixedly connected to the outside of the rotating rod, and the rack being meshed with the outside of the gear, the rack being fixedly installed on the upper end of the base.
[0014] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effect of this utility model is that the automatic flipping device for pancake processing is equipped with:
[0015] 1. Adjustment structure: When the pancake needs to be flipped, the second servo motor is activated, causing the output end of the second servo motor to rotate the second threaded rod. The rotation of the second threaded rod causes the second threaded connector connected to the outer thread to move left and right, so that the clamping plate extends into the inside of the baking pan along the notch and inserts into the bottom of the pancake. Then, the hydraulic cylinder is activated, and the output end of the hydraulic cylinder drives the pressure plate to move downward, thereby clamping the pancake through cooperation with the clamping plate.
[0016] 2. Flipping Structure: After the pancake is clamped and fixed, the first servo motor is activated. The output of the first servo motor drives the first threaded rod to rotate. The rotation of the first threaded rod causes the first threaded connector connected to the outer thread to move up and down, thereby causing the clamping plate to move upward. As the clamping plate moves upward, the gear on the outer side of the rotating rod will contact and mesh with the rack. The meshing of the rack and gear drives the gear to rotate. The rotation of the gear will drive the inner rotating rod to rotate, thereby causing the clamping plate connected to the tail end to rotate and flip 180°. After flipping, the hydraulic cylinder runs in the opposite direction, causing the pressure plate to lose its clamping of the pancake. At this time, the second servo motor runs in the opposite direction, pulling the clamping plate outward along the notch. The flipped pancake loses the clamping support and can fall into the inner side of the baking tray for reverse baking. Through the above operation, a fully automatic flipping operation is achieved, avoiding the risk of burns caused by manual flipping.
[0017] Furthermore, when the clamp moves downward, the gear and rack disengage, and the stored spiral spring uses its own elasticity to reset the clamp, thus facilitating the next use. Attached Figure Description

[0026] Example 1: As Figures 1-4 The present invention provides a technical solution: an automatic flipping device for pancake processing, comprising: a base 1, a support frame 2 fixedly installed on the upper end of the base 1, and a baking tray 3 fixedly installed on the upper end of the support frame 2; a notch 4, the notch 4 being formed inside the baking tray 3; further comprising: a clamping plate 6, the clamping plate 6 being disposed inside the baking tray 3 and penetrating through the inside of the notch 4; an adjusting component 5, the adjusting component 5 being connected to the clamping plate 6; a clamping component 7, the clamping component 7 being disposed outside the clamping plate 6; and a flipping component 8, the flipping component 8 being disposed outside the clamping plate 6; wherein, the adjusting component 5 is used to adjust the position of the clamping plate 6; the clamping component 7 is used to clamp and fix the pancake on the upper end of the clamping plate 6; and the flipping component 8 is used to flip the clamping plate 6.
[0027] The adjustment assembly 5 includes a fixed frame 501, a first servo motor 502, a first threaded rod 503, a first threaded connector 504, and a first slide groove 505. The fixed frame 501 is fixedly installed on the upper end of the base 1, and the first servo motor 502 is fixedly installed on the outer side of the fixed frame 501. The output end of the first servo motor 502 is fixedly connected to the first threaded rod 503, and the outer side of the first threaded rod 503 is threadedly connected to the first threaded connector 504. The bottom of the first threaded connector 504 is slidably connected to the inner side of the first slide groove 505, and the first slide groove 505 is opened on the inner side of the fixed frame 501. The adjustment assembly 5 also includes a shelf 506, a second servo motor 507, a second threaded rod 508, a second threaded connector 509, and a second slide groove 510. The shelf 506 is fixedly installed on the outer side of the first threaded connector 504, and the first threaded rod 508 is fixedly installed on the upper end of the shelf 506. Two servo motors 507 are used. The output end of the second servo motor 507 is fixedly connected to a second threaded rod 508. The outer side of the second threaded rod 508 is threadedly connected to a second threaded connector 509. The bottom of the second threaded connector 509 is slidably connected to the inner side of a second slide groove 510. The second slide groove 510 is opened inside the shelf plate 506. The adjustment assembly 5 also includes a connector 511 and a rotating rod 512. The connector 511 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the second threaded connector 509. The inner side of the connector 511 is rotatably connected to the rotating rod 512. The tail end of the rotating rod 512 is connected to the clamping plate 6. The clamping assembly 7 includes a hydraulic cylinder 701 and a pressure plate 702. The hydraulic cylinder 701 is fixedly installed on the outer side of the clamping plate 6. The output end of the hydraulic cylinder 701 passes through the inner side of the clamping plate 6. The output end of the hydraulic cylinder 701 is fixedly connected to the pressure plate 702. The pressure plate 702 and the clamping plate 6 are distributed vertically in correspondence.
[0028] When the pancake needs to be flipped, this structure operates by running the second servo motor 507, which in turn drives the second threaded rod 508 to rotate. The rotation of the second threaded rod 508 causes the second threaded connector 509 with the outer threaded connection to move left and right, so that the clamping plate 6 extends into the inside of the baking pan 3 along the notch 4 and inserts into the bottom of the pancake. Then, the hydraulic cylinder 701 is operated, and the output end of the hydraulic cylinder 701 drives the pressure plate 702 to move downward, which clamps the pancake by cooperating with the clamping plate 6.
[0029] Example 2: Figures 1-5 The present invention provides a technical solution: an automatic flipping device for pancake processing, which discloses that: the flipping component 8 includes a spiral spring 801, the two ends of which are respectively connected to the connector 511 and the end of the rotating rod 512; the flipping component 8 also includes a gear 802 and a rack 803, the gear 802 is fixedly connected to the outside of the rotating rod 512, and the rack 803 is meshed with the outside of the gear 802, and the rack 803 is fixedly installed on the upper end of the base 1;
[0030] After the pancake is clamped and fixed, the first servo motor 502 is activated. The output of the first servo motor 502 drives the first threaded rod 503 to rotate. The rotation of the first threaded rod 503 causes the first threaded connector 504 connected to the outer thread to move up and down, thereby causing the clamping plate 6 to move upward. As the clamping plate 6 moves upward, the gear 802 on the outer side of the rotating rod 512 will contact and mesh with the rack 803. The meshing of the rack 803 and the gear 802 drives the gear 802 to rotate. The rotation of the gear 802 causes the inner rotating rod 512 to rotate, thereby causing the clamping plate 6 connected to the tail end to move upward. The pancake rotates 180° and flips together. After flipping, the hydraulic cylinder 701 reverses, causing the pressure plate 702 to lose its grip on the pancake. At this time, the second servo motor 507 reverses, pulling the clamping plate 6 outward along the notch 4. The flipped pancake, no longer supported by the clamping plate 6, falls to the inside of the baking tray 3 for baking on the other side. Through the above operation, a fully automatic flipping operation is achieved, avoiding burns caused by manual flipping. When the clamping plate 6 moves downward, the gear 802 and rack 803 disengage, and the stored spiral spring 801 will use its own elasticity to drive the clamping plate 6 to reset, thus facilitating the next use.
