[0002] A tunnel oven (food processing type) is a tunnel-shaped mechanical device that bakes food through heat conduction, convection, and radiation. Inside the tunnel is a continuously operating conveyor system. During baking, the relative movement between the conveyor chain, steel belt, or mesh belt and the heating elements ensures uniform baking and transport of the food. These ovens can operate continuously with high efficiency and consistent baking quality. However, existing tunnel ovens using conveyor chains, steel belts, or mesh belts are typically only suitable for baking foods like cookies, bread, and cakes. When baking pizza, considering the texture, a pizza stone is usually needed to support the pizza and transfer heat, meaning pizzas are generally baked only in pizza ovens. Therefore, it is necessary to propose a conveyor belt device suitable for baking pizzas inside a tunnel oven. Utility Model Content

A mounting plate is fixedly disposed between the first chain links and the second chain links, and the slate strips are fixedly disposed on the mounting plate.

[0006] As a further improvement to the above technical solution:

[0007] The stone slab strip and the mounting plate are detachably connected by a snap-fit ​​structure. The snap-fit ​​structure includes snap-fit ​​grooves formed on both sides of the stone slab strip and inner flanges formed on both sides of the mounting plate. The inner flanges are embedded in the snap-fit ​​grooves.

[0008] The mounting plate has multiple sets of through holes on its bottom.

[0009] The slabs are made of cordierite.

[0010] It also includes a chain drive mechanism for driving the first chain and the second chain to rotate cyclically. The chain drive mechanism includes a drive motor, a drive sprocket and a driven sprocket. The first chain and the second chain are wound between the drive sprocket and the driven sprocket.

[0020] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0021] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, the slate conveyor belt device of the pizza oven in this embodiment includes a first chain 1, a second chain 2, and a plurality of slate strips 3 disposed between the first chain 1 and the second chain 2. The first chain 1 is formed by connecting the ends of a plurality of first chain links 101, and the second chain 2 is formed by connecting the ends of a plurality of second chain links 201. An mounting plate 4 is fixedly disposed between the first chain links 101 and the second chain links 201, and the slate strips 3 are fixedly disposed on the mounting plate 4. The slate conveyor belt device of this pizza oven includes a first chain 1 and a second chain 2. The first link 101 on the first chain 1 corresponds one-to-one with the second link 201 on the second chain 2. A mounting plate 4 is provided between a set of first link 101 and a set of second link 201. Slate strips 3 are set on the mounting plate 4, so that multiple sets of slate strips 3 form a conveyor belt surface for supporting pizzas. The first chain 1 and the second chain 2 rotate in a cycle within the pizza oven 100, thereby driving the pizzas to be conveyed along the length of the oven body on the slate strips 3. The high heat storage capacity of the slate strips 3 can ensure stable temperature, reduce frequent heating and save energy, make the pizzas heat evenly, and ensure stable pizza baking quality. Moreover, the slate strips 3 are durable, not easy to wear or deform, and food residue does not easily adhere to their surface, making cleaning convenient. This slate conveyor belt device has the advantages of simple structure, stable operation, and continuous production operation, which can effectively improve product quality and production efficiency.

[0022] Preferably, the stone slab 3 and the mounting plate 4 are detachably connected by a snap-fit ​​structure. The snap-fit ​​structure includes snap-fit ​​grooves 301 formed on both sides of the stone slab 3 and inner flanges 401 formed on both sides of the mounting plate 4. The inner flanges 401 are embedded in the snap-fit ​​grooves 301, eliminating the need for drilling holes in the stone slab 3 for fixing. This structure has the advantages of simple structure, convenient and quick installation and disassembly, and good connection stability.

[0023] Preferably, the bottom of the mounting plate 4 has multiple sets of through holes 402, which allow hot air from inside the pizza oven 100 to flow through the through holes 402 to the lower surface of the slate strip 3 for heating, so that the upper and lower surfaces of the slate strip 3 have uniform temperature, effectively avoiding the risk of cracking caused by internal thermal expansion differences in the slate strip 3.

[0024] Preferably, the material of the stone slab 3 is cordierite. Cordierite's high heat storage capacity can ensure temperature stability, reduce frequent heating and save energy, and make the pizza on the stone slab 3 heat evenly. Cordierite has the advantages of low thermal expansion coefficient, good resistance to rapid heating and cooling, and good durability. When heated, its volume change is minimal, it is not easy to crack after repeated heating and cooling, it is resistant to high temperature, and can withstand temperatures above 1200 degrees Celsius for a long time. The material is lightweight and not easy to wear or deform. Food residue does not easily adhere to its surface, making it easy to clean. In other embodiments, the material of the stone slab 3 can also be granite, marble, volcanic rock, etc., and is not limited to this embodiment.

[0025] like Figure 5 As shown, in practical applications, the slate conveyor belt device is installed inside the pizza oven 100, and also includes a chain drive mechanism 5 for driving the first chain 1 and the second chain 2 to rotate cyclically. The chain drive mechanism 5 includes a drive motor, a drive sprocket, and a driven sprocket. The first chain 1 and the second chain 2 are wound around the drive sprocket and the driven sprocket, and the output shaft of the drive motor is connected to the drive sprocket for transmission. In this embodiment, the input and output ends of the slate conveyor belt device are located outside the pizza oven 100. The pizza dough is placed on the slate strip 3 at the input end of the slate conveyor belt device. The chain drive mechanism 5 drives the first chain 1 and the second chain 2 to rotate cyclically, so that the pizza dough moves with the slate strip 3 into the pizza oven 100 for baking. After baking, the finished pizza moves with the slate strip 3 to the output end of the slate conveyor belt device, where workers remove the finished pizza.

[0026] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model, and the protection scope of this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments.
