Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of mooncake making equipment, and in particular to a fully automatic mooncake molding machine. Background Technology

[0002] Mooncakes, also known as moon cakes, harvest cakes, reunion cakes, etc., are "edible art pieces" that are seasonal, festive, and culturally significant during the Mid-Autumn Festival.

[0003] In the automation process of mooncake production, the stamping technology of the mooncake molding machine is the core link. Based on the principle of precision mechanical transmission and mold collaboration, it uses a servo motor or hydraulic system to provide a stable and controllable power source, driving the stamping device to move downward at a set speed and pressure. The stamping device makes instant contact with the precisely positioned mooncake mold below, and uses the specific shape of the mold cavity to apply uniform and sufficient extrusion pressure to the pre-treated mooncake blank. This causes the blank to undergo plastic deformation in a short time, completely filling every fine structure of the mold. This allows for the rapid and efficient shaping of mooncakes with clear patterns and standard shapes, while ensuring that the mooncakes are intact and have high dimensional accuracy, laying a good foundation for subsequent baking and packaging processes.

[0004] Patent document CN211482681U discloses a mooncake production mold, relating to the field of food processing technology. Specifically, it is a mooncake production mold including a base plate, a lower mold, and an upper mold. A pushing column is fixedly installed at the bottom of the inner cavity of the base plate. The lower mold is movably sleeved within the inner cavity of the base plate. Sliding grooves are formed on both sides of the inner cavity of the lower mold. A pushing plate is engaged within the inner cavity of each sliding groove. A connecting column is fixedly installed on the upper surface of the pushing plate, and an mounting plate is fixedly installed on the top of the connecting column. This mooncake production mold, through the coordinated use of the mounting plate, pushing plate, and pushing column, utilizes the pushing column to support the pushing plate, thereby causing the pushing plate to push the connecting column and mounting plate upwards, ejecting the mooncake located within the inner cavity of the lower mold. This facilitates collection by workers and avoids the problem of inconvenient mooncake removal in traditional mooncake production molds, improving the practicality of this mooncake production mold.

[0005] As in the prior art of the aforementioned patent, the mooncake mold pushes the mooncake out during the mooncake production process, thereby achieving mooncake demolding. However, during the pressing process, due to the size of the mooncake dough, excess mooncake skin will remain around the mold. At this time, it is necessary to manually pick out these excess mooncake parts, cut around them, and then send these excess mooncakes back to the production process for the next step, which brings inconvenience to the mooncake production process.

[0023] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.

[0024] Reference Figure 1-5An automatic mooncake molding machine includes a conveying module 1 and a frame 3 mounted above the conveying module 1. A cylinder 4 is mounted on the top of the frame 3, and a stamping assembly 5 is driven to the output end of the cylinder 4. The stamping assembly 5 includes a fixed cylinder 6, with a mold 12 fixedly mounted at the bottom end of the fixed cylinder 6. A ring-cutting assembly is mounted on the fixed cylinder 6, and an air-blowing assembly is installed inside the fixed cylinder 6. The conveying module 1 is existing technology; its function is to convey the mooncake embryo directly below the cylinder 4. The control system of the conveying module 1 controls the start and stop of the conveying module 1, thereby ensuring the mooncake embryo is precisely positioned below the cylinder 4. The cylinder 4 presses down on the mooncake mold 12, thus stamping and shaping the mooncake embryo. During the stamping process, the ring-cutting assembly can remove excess mooncake skin around the mold 12. This removed material can be recycled later by blowing air or manual selection. The air-blowing assembly blows air onto the top of the mold 12 during the pressing process, facilitating demolding of the mooncake.

[0025] As a preferred technical solution of this embodiment, the ring cutting assembly includes a rotating ring 10 movably sleeved on the fixed cylinder 6, and an annular cutter 11 is fixedly installed at the bottom end of the rotating ring 10; by rotating the rotating ring 10 downward, the annular cutter 11 is driven to cut the excess material overflowing around the mold 12.

[0026] As a preferred technical solution in this embodiment, a lifting plate 7 is provided above the fixed cylinder 6, the output end of the cylinder 4 is connected to the top end of the lifting plate 7, and a plurality of connecting parts 8 are fixedly installed at the bottom end of the lifting plate 7.

[0027] As a preferred embodiment, the inner wall of the rotating ring 10 is provided with two guide members 17, and the side wall of the fixed cylinder 6 is provided with two arc-shaped guide grooves 16. The two arc-shaped guide grooves 16 are arranged opposite to each other, and the initial position of the two guide members 17 is set at the top of the arc-shaped guide grooves 16. A fixed ring 9 is rotatably installed at the top of the rotating ring 10, and the fixed ring 9 is fixedly connected to multiple connecting members 8. The cylinder 4 drives the lifting plate 7 to press down, and the lifting plate 7 presses down, pressing the fixed ring 9. The fixed ring 9 drives the rotating ring 10 to move downward. Under the action of the arc-shaped guide grooves 16, the guide members 17 on the inner wall of the rotating ring 10 can drive the rotating ring 10 to rotate itself, thereby driving the annular cutter 11 to cut the excess material overflowing around the mold 12.

[0028] As a preferred technical solution of this embodiment, the air blowing assembly includes a stamping part 13 fixedly installed at the bottom of the lifting plate 7. The top of the fixed cylinder 6 is provided with a groove 15, which is slidably adapted to the stamping part 13. The top edge of the mold 12 is provided with two air blowing holes 19. The inside of the fixed cylinder 6 is provided with two air blowing channels 18, which are used to connect the two air blowing holes 19 and the groove 15. During the stamping process, the lifting plate 7 moves downward, which drives the stamping part 13 to move downward, thereby compressing the gas inside the groove 15. Then, the gas is blown out from the air blowing holes 19 at the top edge of the mold 12 through the air blowing channels 18, which facilitates the demolding of the mooncake. It is worth mentioning that the air blowing holes 19 are located at the top edge and the area of ​​the air blowing holes 19 is small, so it will not affect the making of the mooncake.

[0029] As a preferred technical solution in this embodiment, a spring 14 is provided between the lifting plate 7 and the fixed cylinder 6; the function of the spring 14 is that when the cylinder 4 rises upward, the lifting plate 7 can be reset, further realizing the reset of the rotating ring 10 and the annular cutter 11, which facilitates the annular cutting of the next stamping process.

[0030] 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.
