Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of bread processing technology, specifically relating to a bread crumb collection device for bread processing. Background Technology
[0002] During bread processing, whether it's cutting, shaping, or baking, a large amount of bread crumbs are inevitably generated. If these bread crumbs are not collected and disposed of in a timely and effective manner, they will not only waste valuable raw materials but also pollute the production environment and may even affect the quality and taste of the bread.
[0003] Traditional breadcrumb collection methods mostly rely on manual sweeping. While manual sweeping can thoroughly remove breadcrumbs, it is inefficient and requires a significant investment of manpower. Simple mechanical collection methods, such as using vacuum cleaners or brooms, can improve collection efficiency to some extent, but the breadcrumbs on the conveyor belt surface, away from the discharge port, are blocked from suction. At this point, the breadcrumbs, which are often moist and oily, will stick to the surface and cannot be sucked up, thus accumulating on the conveyor belt surface. Utility Model Content
[0004] To address the above problems, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a bread crumb collection device for bread processing, which solves the problem that although manual cleaning can thoroughly clean bread crumbs, it is inefficient. In mechanical collection methods, bread crumbs are located on the surface of the conveyor belt away from the discharge port, where the air extraction is blocked. At this time, bread crumbs with high moisture and oil content will stick to the surface and cannot be sucked up, thus accumulating on the surface of the conveyor belt.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: a bread crumb collection device for bread processing, comprising a protective frame, a motor fixedly mounted on one side of the protective frame, and a sub-shaft of the motor passing through and rotatably connected to one side of the protective frame. The sub-shaft of the motor is connected to one end of a drive wheel, which is rotatably mounted inside one side of the protective frame. A driven wheel is rotatably mounted on the other side of the inner side of the protective frame, and a transmission belt is fitted around the outer sides of the drive wheel and the driven wheel for transmission. The transmission belt passes through and has several discharge ports. A fixed base is provided below the driven wheel. The fixed base is connected to the other two sides of the inner side of the protective frame. The fixed base is connected to the first connecting pipe. A collection box is fixed inside the protective frame and is located below the transmission belt. The collection box is connected to the second connecting pipe. The first connecting pipe and the second connecting pipe are connected to the outer shell. The outer shell is fixed to the outside of the protective frame by the mounting base. A fan is provided on one side of the outer shell. A filter plate is slidably installed inside the outer shell. The filter plate is connected to the outer shell by a limiting component. The limiting component is located on both sides of the top of the outer shell. A guide plate is fixed at one end of the protective frame.
[0006] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0007] The air extraction holes on the surface of the fixed seat can be used for secondary cleaning and collection of bread crumbs stuck to the surface of the transmission belt.
[0008] By using a motor-driven transmission belt and combining a collection box with a fan, the device achieves efficient and continuous collection of bread crumbs. It can quickly collect bread crumbs generated during processing, avoiding waste and environmental pollution.
[0009] The filter plate features a detachable design, making it easy for users to clean and replace. Meanwhile, the outer casing and collection box are also made of materials that are easy to disassemble and clean, reducing maintenance difficulty and cost.
[0010] To facilitate the removal of the filter plate:
[0011] As a further improvement to the above technical solution: a limiting seat is fixedly provided at the bottom of the inner part of the outer shell, and a fitting groove is provided at the top of the limiting seat. A top plate is slidably installed in the fitting groove. Several springs are fixedly provided at the bottom of the top plate. The springs are connected to the bottom of the fitting groove. The fitting groove is slidably connected to the bottom of the filter plate. The filter plate passes through the top of the outer shell and is slidably connected to it.
[0012] The beneficial effects of this improvement are: when the limiting component is disconnected from the filter plate, the elastic potential energy of the spring causes the filter plate to pop up, making it easier to pull out the filter plate.
[0013] To protect the air vents of the exhaust fan:
[0014] As a further improvement to the above technical solution: the limiting component includes a connecting seat, a plug rod, and a limiting slot. The connecting seats are fixed on both sides of the top of the outer shell. The plug rod is slidably installed through the center of the connecting seat and passes through both sides of the top of the outer shell and is slidably connected to it. A return spring is sleeved on the outer side of one end of the plug rod, and one end of the return spring is connected to the connecting seat. The opposite ends of the two sets of plug rods are fitted and slidably connected to the limiting slot. The limiting slot is opened on both sides of the top of the filter plate.
[0015] The beneficial effects of this improvement are as follows: When installing the filter plate, the user can pull the insertion rod outward. At this time, the return spring elastically unfolds and stores energy. After the filter plate slides to the appropriate position, the insertion rod is released, and the elastic potential energy of the return spring causes the insertion rod to engage and insert into the limiting slot, thereby completing the installation of the filter plate. Similarly, the filter plate can be disassembled by reversing the operation. The filter plate can protect the air outlet of the exhaust fan.
[0016] To perform a secondary cleaning and collection of bread crumbs adhering to the surface of the drive belt:
[0017] As a further improvement to the above technical solution: the interior of the fixed seat is set as a cavity, and the fixed seat has several air extraction holes through the cavity facing the driven wheel. A connecting pipe is provided through one end of the fixed seat, and one end of the connecting pipe is connected to an exhaust fan.
[0018] The beneficial effect of this improvement is that the air extraction hole can perform secondary cleaning and collection of bread crumbs adhering to the surface of the transmission belt.
[0019] In order to unify the control of this device:
[0020] As a further improvement to the above technical solution: a controller is fixedly provided at the top of the outer shell, and the controller includes a microcontroller and a relay, and the controller is electrically connected to a motor and an exhaust fan.
[0021] The beneficial effect of this improvement is that it enables unified control of the device.
[0022] The parts of the device not covered herein are the same as or can be implemented using existing technologies. Attached Figure Description

The description in this part is only exemplary and explanatory, and should not be used to limit the scope of protection of this utility model in any way.
[0030] like Figure 1-5As shown, a bread crumb collection device for bread processing includes a protective frame 1. A motor 2 is fixedly mounted on one side of the protective frame 1, and a sub-shaft of the motor 2 passes through and is rotatably connected to one side of the protective frame 1. The sub-shaft of the motor 2 is connected to one end of a drive wheel 10, and the drive wheel 10 is rotatably mounted inside one side of the protective frame 1. A driven wheel 11 is rotatably mounted on the other side of the inner side of the protective frame 1. A transmission belt 4 is sleeved on the outer side of the drive wheel 10 and the driven wheel 11 for transmission. The transmission belt 4 has several discharge ports. A fixed seat 5 is provided below the driven wheel 11, and both ends of the fixed seat 5 are connected to the protective frame 11. On the other side of the inner end of the frame 1, the fixed seat 5 is connected to the connecting pipe 6. The inside of the protective frame 1 is fixed with a collection box 12, which is located below the transmission belt 4. The collection box 12 is connected to the connecting pipe 7. The connecting pipe 6 and the connecting pipe 7 are connected to the outer shell 8. The outer shell 8 is fixed to the outside of the protective frame 1 by a mounting seat. A fan 9 is provided on one side of the outer shell 8. A filter plate 15 is slidably installed inside the outer shell 8. The filter plate 15 is connected to the outer shell 8 by a limiting component. The limiting component is located on both sides of the top of the outer shell 8. A guide plate 3 is fixed at one end of the protective frame 1.
[0031] A limiting seat 16 is fixedly provided at the bottom of the inner part of the outer shell 8, and a fitting groove is provided at the top of the limiting seat 16. A top plate is slidably installed in the fitting groove, and a plurality of springs 17 are fixedly provided at the bottom of the top plate. The springs 17 are connected to the bottom of the fitting groove, and the fitting groove is slidably connected to the bottom of the filter plate 15. The filter plate 15 passes through the top of the outer shell 8 and is slidably connected to it. When the limiting component is released from the connection with the filter plate 15, the elastic potential energy of the springs 17 causes the filter plate 15 to pop up, which facilitates the removal of the filter plate 15.
[0032] The limiting assembly includes a connecting seat 13, a plug rod 14, and a limiting slot 18. Connecting seats 13 are fixedly provided on both sides of the top of the outer shell 8.

The opposite ends of the two sets of plug rods 14 are fitted and slidably connected to the limiting slot 18. The limiting slot 18 is located on both sides of the top of the filter plate 15. When installing the filter plate 15, the user can pull the plug rod 14 outwards. At this time, the return spring elastically unfolds and stores energy. When the filter plate 15 slides to the appropriate position, the plug rod 14 is released, and the elastic potential energy of the return spring causes the plug rod 14 to fit into the limiting slot 18, thereby completing the installation of the filter plate 15. Similarly, the filter plate 15 can be disassembled by reversing the operation. The filter plate 15 can protect the air outlet of the exhaust fan 9.

[0035] The working principle and usage process of this utility model are as follows: The exhaust fan 9 is driven by the controller, and the connecting pipe 6 and connecting pipe 7 connected to the outer shell 8 transmit the gas. The collection box 12 adsorbs the bread crumbs that are not blocked by the conveyor belt 4 except for the discharge port position. The bread crumbs fall into the collection box 12 and are collected into the outer shell 8 through the collection box 12 and connecting pipe 7. The bread crumbs that are not blocked by the discharge port position of the conveyor belt 4 are conveyed by the conveyor belt 4. The air extraction hole opened by the fixed seat 5 can perform secondary cleaning and collection of the bread crumbs that stick to the surface of the conveyor belt 4.
