[0023] A tray device for producing biscuits or potato chips, as described in the following figure. Figures 1-2 The system includes a frame 1, on which a first tray conveying device 3 for conveying trays 2 is provided. Below the first tray conveying device 3, a cookie conveying device 5 for conveying multiple cookies 4 is provided. A pressing structure 6 is connected to the frame 1, and a flipping mechanism is connected to the cookie conveying device 5. When the trays 2 are conveyed by the first tray conveying device 3 and pass through the pressing structure 6, they close and fasten tightly onto the horizontally stacked cookies 4. Under the action of the flipping mechanism, the cookies 4 and the trays 2 are flipped so that the trays 2 are below the cookies 4 and support the cookies 4.

[0024] Furthermore, the first tray conveying device 3 includes a double-row chain conveyor 31 and a tray track 32 disposed below the double-row chain conveyor 31. Multiple baffles 33 are spaced apart on the chain of the double-row chain conveyor 31. Adjacent baffles 33 and the chain of the double-row chain conveyor 31 surround each other to form a limiting groove 34 for accommodating the tray 2. The double-row chain conveyor 31 drives the baffles 33 through the chain to push the tray 2 to move on the tray track 32.

[0025] Furthermore, the biscuit conveying device 5 is located below the tray track 32. When the baffle 33 pushes the tray 2 to the end of the tray track 32, the tray 2 closes down on the biscuit 4 under the action of the pressing structure 6.

[0026] Furthermore, the pressing structure 6 is a rubber sheet, the upper end of which is connected to the double-row chain conveyor 31, and the tray 2 is covered on the biscuit 4 under the action of the rubber sheet.

[0027] Furthermore, the biscuit conveying device 5 is provided with a positioning frame 7. After the tray 2 is placed on the biscuit 4, the upper end of the tray 2 is attached to the positioning frame 7 and moves on the biscuit conveying device 5.

[0028] Furthermore, the flipping mechanism includes an arc-shaped channel 81 and a horizontal channel 82. The upper end of the arc-shaped channel 81 is connected to the biscuit conveying device 5, and the horizontal channel 82 is connected to the end of the arc-shaped channel 81 away from the biscuit conveying device 5. When the tray 2 covers the biscuit 4 and moves along the arc-shaped channel 81 to the horizontal channel 82, the tray 2 is located below the biscuit 4 and supports the biscuit 4.

[0029] Furthermore, the frame 1 is also provided with a second tray conveying device 9 for conveying the tray 2 into the limiting groove 34.

[0030] Furthermore, the biscuit conveying device 5 includes a belt conveyor 51 and limiting plates 52 symmetrically arranged along the conveying direction of the belt conveyor 51.

[0031] The working principle of this utility model is as follows:

[0032] As an embodiment 1, the first tray conveying device 3 of this application illustrates the design concept of this application using a double-row chain conveyor 31, a baffle 33, and a tray track 32 as examples. The arranged biscuits 4 are placed on the biscuit conveying device 5 for conveying. Biscuits 4 can be selected in groups of 8-12 (the specific number is determined according to the size of the tray 2). The biscuits 4 are stacked horizontally (the biscuits 4 need to be kept vertical). Multiple groups of biscuits 4 are conveyed on the biscuit conveying device 5, with a gap between adjacent groups of biscuits 4. The second tray conveying device 9 conveys the tray 2 into the limiting groove 34 formed by the baffle 33 and the chain of the double-row chain conveyor 31. When the double-row chain conveyor 31 moves, the chain drives the baffle 33 to rotate synchronously, thereby pushing the tray 2 to move on the tray track 32. When tray 2 moves to the end of tray track 32, tray 2 closes and fastens tightly to a set of biscuits 4 on biscuit conveying device 5 under the action of pressing structure 6. Biscuit conveying device 5 synchronously conveys tray 2 and biscuits 4 (at this time, tray 2 is closed on a set of biscuits). When tray 2 and biscuits 4 are conveyed to flipping mechanism, taking arc channel 81 and horizontal channel 82 as an example, tray 2 and biscuits 4 will first enter arc channel 81 synchronously and flip 90 degrees counterclockwise. After tray 2 and biscuits 4 enter horizontal channel 82 through arc channel 81, tray 2 and biscuits 4 will flip 90 degrees counterclockwise again. Then the lower end of tray 2 will be attached to horizontal channel 82, and biscuits 4 will be located in tray 2 and supported by tray 2, completing the loading of biscuits 4.

[0033] Based on the above technical solution, this application takes into account that when the tray 2 is tightly attached to the biscuit 4, the tray 2 and the biscuit 4 will be relatively displaced when conveyed on the biscuit conveying device 5. Therefore, this application connects a positioning frame 7 to the biscuit conveying device 5. When the tray 2 is closed and tightly attached to the biscuit 4, the tray 2 and the biscuit 4 are conveyed on the biscuit conveying device 5. The upper end of the tray 2 moves in contact with the lower end of the positioning frame 7. This design can prevent the tray 2 from detaching from the biscuit 4 and keep the tray 2 closed and tightly attached to the biscuit 4.

[0034] Based on the above technical solution, the pressing structure 6 of this application can be implemented by using a rubber sheet with a certain elasticity. One end of the rubber sheet is connected to the double-row chain conveyor 31. At this time, the tray 2 is covered on the biscuit 4 under the action of the rubber sheet. The setting of the rubber sheet can not only apply external force to the tray 2 to cover the biscuit 4, but also prevent the tray 2 from deforming.

[0035] Based on the above technical solutions, the second tray conveying device 9 of this application can be implemented by a belt conveyor 51. The biscuit conveying device 5 of this application can also be implemented by a belt conveyor 51 and a limiting plate 52. The limiting plates 52 are symmetrically arranged on the belt conveyor 51. When the belt conveys the biscuit 4, the two limiting plates 52 have a limiting effect on the biscuit 4, so that the biscuit 4 remains in a vertical state.

[0036] The tray-loading device of this application has a pressing structure 6 connected to the frame 1 and a flipping mechanism connected to the biscuit conveying device 5. When the tray 2 is conveyed by the first tray conveying device 3 and passes through the pressing structure 6, it closes down and tightly fastens to the biscuits 4 stacked horizontally. Under the action of the flipping mechanism, the biscuits 4 and the tray 2 are flipped so that the tray 2 is below the biscuits 4 and supports the biscuits 4. Through the above structural cooperation, the tray 2 can be tightly fastened to the biscuits 4, and the biscuits 4 are neatly and tightly arranged in the tray 2, reducing the gap between the biscuits 4 and the tray 2, and effectively avoiding the problem of the biscuits 4 being fragile.

[0037] In the above technical solution, this application uses biscuits as an example to illustrate the design concept of this application. The traying device of this application can also be applied to the traying operation of potato chips.

[0038] Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the above embodiments, it will be apparent to those skilled in the art that various changes or modifications can be made to the present invention without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention as defined by the claims. Therefore, the detailed description of the embodiments in this disclosure is for explanation only and not for limiting the present invention, but rather the scope of protection is defined by the content of the claims.
