Detailed Implementation

[0019] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0020] Please refer to Figures 1-5. In this embodiment of the present invention, a multi-station rotary pressing and molding device for mooncakes that improves molding efficiency includes a worktable 10, a pressing mechanism 20, a feeding mechanism 30, and a rotary table 50. The rotary table 50 is rotatably mounted on the worktable 10, and a plurality of molding molds 51 are provided on the rotary table 50. The pressing mechanism 20 and the feeding mechanism 30 are located on the side of the rotary table 50. The feeding mechanism 30 is used to inject mooncake raw materials into the molding molds 51, and the pressing mechanism 20 is used to squeeze the molding molds 51 containing the mooncake raw materials to shape the mooncake raw materials into mooncakes of the desired shape. In this embodiment, the molding molds 51 are circular. In actual use, the molding molds 51 can also be other desired shapes, such as polygons, petals, etc.

[0021] In this embodiment, the pressing mechanism 20 includes a frame 21, an adjusting screw 22, and a punch head 25. The frame 21 is fixedly mounted on the worktable 10, and the adjusting screw 22 is rotatably mounted on the worktable 10. A threaded sleeve 23 is threaded onto the adjusting screw 22. The threaded sleeve 23 is slidably connected to the frame 21 and is fixedly connected to the punch head 25 via a connecting plate 24. When the rotary table 50 rotates the forming mold 51 to the position of the pressing mechanism 20, the punch head 25 is located directly above the forming mold 51. By controlling the rotation of the adjusting screw 22, the threaded sleeve 23 drives the punch head 25 to move toward the forming mold 51, using the punch head 25 to extrude the mooncake raw material inside the forming mold 51, thus shaping the mooncake raw material into a mooncake. Further, in this embodiment, the worktable... A gearbox is installed at the bottom of the 10. A first motor 26 is fixedly installed on the outside of the gearbox. A first gear 261 is fixedly installed at the output end of the first motor 26. The lower end of the adjusting screw 22 extends into the interior of the gearbox, and a second gear 262 and a third gear 263 are fixedly installed at the lower end of the adjusting screw 22. The first gear 261 meshes with the second gear 262 and the third gear 263. The second gear 262 and the third gear 263 are both semi-bevel gears. When the first motor 26 drives the first gear 261 to rotate, the first gear 261 drives the adjusting screw 22 to rotate through the second gear 262 and the third gear 263. The adjusting screw 22 is continuously controlled to change its rotation direction, so that the screw sleeve 23 drives the punch head 25 to reciprocate to impact the mooncake filling inside the forming mold 51, ensuring that the mooncake is pressed evenly.

[0022] In this embodiment, the rotary table 50 has an installation groove at the position of the forming mold 51. A base plate 55 is provided on the top of the installation groove. A support rod 58 and a cylinder 59 are installed inside the installation groove. The telescopic end of the cylinder 59 is hinged to one side of the base plate 55, and the upper end of the support rod 58 is hinged to the other side of the base plate 55. When the mooncake is formed inside the forming mold 51, the telescopic end of the cylinder 59 extends, causing one side of the base plate 55 to flip upwards, causing the mooncake to detach from the forming mold 51. Furthermore... In this embodiment, the rotary table 50 has a sliding groove on the side of the mounting groove. The forming mold 51 is slidably installed inside the sliding groove. An electromagnet 57 is provided at the bottom of the sliding groove. The electromagnet 57 is connected to the forming mold 51 through a connecting spring 56. The forming mold 51 is made of ferromagnetic material. Specifically, in this embodiment, the forming mold 51 can be made of martensitic stainless steel. When the mooncake is formed, the electromagnet 57 is energized and drives the forming mold 51 to slide into the sliding groove, so as to avoid the forming mold 51 blocking the mooncake output.

[0023] It should be noted that, in this embodiment of the application, the rotary table 50 is provided with a power supply 501 inside. The power supply 501 is electrically connected to the cylinder 59 and the electromagnet 57. When the mooncake is discharged, the power supply 501 is started, the cylinder 59 is energized and the telescopic end extends, and the electromagnet 57 is energized and drives the forming mold 51 to slide into the groove.

[0024] Please refer to Figure 1 again. In this embodiment of the application, a feeding platform 52 is provided on one side of the workbench 10, and a collection box 53 is installed on the lower side of the workbench 10. When the mooncakes are discharged, they enter the collection box 53 along the feeding platform 52 to realize the collection of mooncakes.

[0025] In this embodiment, a support is installed on the workbench 10, and a feeding mechanism 30 and an air pump 40 are fixedly installed on the support. The exhaust end of the air pump 40 is set towards the rotary table 50. The air pump 40 is used to generate high-pressure gas to blow the molding mold 51 and prevent mooncake residue from being retained inside the molding mold 51. The feeding mechanism 30 includes a housing 31 and a feeding auger 33. The feeding auger 33 is rotatably installed inside the housing 31. A feeding motor 32 is provided on the housing 31 to drive the feeding auger 33 to rotate. A feeding port 34 is opened on one side of the housing 31, and a discharge hopper 35 is provided at the bottom of the housing 31. The mooncake raw material enters the housing 31 through the feeding port 34. The feeding auger 33 is used to transport the mooncake raw material so that the mooncake raw material enters the molding mold 51 from the discharge hopper 35.

[0026] It should be noted that, taking Figure 1 as an example, in this embodiment, four forming molds 51 are provided on the rotary table 50, and the four forming molds 51 correspond to four mooncake forming stations. The four mooncake forming stations are, in order of rotation direction of the rotary table 50, a cleaning station, a feeding station, a pressing station, and a discharging station. The air pump 40 is located at the cleaning station, the feeding mechanism 30 is located at the feeding station, the pressing mechanism is located at the pressing station, and the unloading platform 52 and the collection box 53 are located at the discharging station. In this embodiment, four mooncake forming stations are set on the rotary table 50 according to the mooncake forming steps. Through the cooperation between multiple stations, the forming efficiency of the mooncake is improved and the uniform pressing of the mooncake is ensured.
