[0021] 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.

[0022] Please see Figure 1-3 This utility model provides a technical solution:

[0023] Example

[0024] The problem to be solved is that existing cake processing equipment cannot automatically fill the fillings into multi-layered cakes, thus requiring manual filling. This manual filling method leads to slow cake processing efficiency and reduces business profits.

[0025] The solution is as follows: A multi-layer cake filling mechanism, comprising a device body 1, which includes an extrusion box 2, a feeding hopper 3, a filling nozzle 4, and a filling device 5. The feeding hopper 3 is installed on top of the extrusion box 2, the filling device 5 is installed inside the extrusion box 2 and directly below the feeding hopper 3, and the filling nozzle 4 is installed at the bottom of the extrusion box 2. The filling device 5 includes a first extrusion roller 6, a second extrusion roller 7, and a reduction motor 8. The first extrusion roller 6 and the second extrusion roller 7 are arranged parallel to each other on their axes. A first meshing gear 9 is installed at one end of the first extrusion roller 6, and a second meshing gear 10 is installed at one end of the second extrusion roller 7. The first meshing gear 9 meshes with the second meshing gear 10. Both ends of the first extrusion roller 6 and the second extrusion roller 7 are provided with mounting bearing seats 12. The reduction motor 8 is mounted on the outside of the extrusion box 2. The reduction motor 8 has a small drive gear 11, which meshes with the first meshing gear 9. The small drive gear 11 is located above the first meshing gear 9. Both the first extrusion roller 6 and the second extrusion roller 7 have cylindrical structures. Five small extrusion blocks 13 are distributed in a ring-like, equidistant pattern on the surface of both the first extrusion roller 6 and the second extrusion roller 7. The small extrusion blocks 13 have an arc-shaped structure. During use... The worker's device body 1 is installed on the conveyor for use. When adjusting and filling the device body 1, the worker places the filling material into the feed hopper 3 for later use. Then, the reduction motor 8 starts, and the drive end of the reduction motor 8 drives the small drive gear 11 to rotate. Because the small drive gear 11 meshes with the first meshing gear 9, it drives the first meshing gear 9 to rotate. The first meshing gear 9 meshes with the second meshing gear 10, thus driving the second meshing gear 10 to rotate. At this time, the first extrusion roller 6 of the first meshing gear 9 and the second meshing gear 10... The second extrusion roller 7 can be driven. Both the first extrusion roller 6 and the second extrusion roller 7 rotate inward. The discharge port of the feed hopper 3 corresponds to the first extrusion roller 6 and the second extrusion roller 7. The material can fall between the first extrusion roller 6 and the second extrusion roller 7 due to gravity, so that the sandwich material can be squeezed into the filling nozzle 4 through the extrusion box 2 for filling. The surface of the first extrusion roller 6 and the second extrusion roller 7 is composed of five small extrusion blocks, which are used for material extrusion, mixing and conveying. They can provide uniform extrusion pressure and are suitable for processing high viscosity materials. The model of the geared motor 8 is: MHMF082L1U2M+A6F-050-10.

[0026] The extrusion box 2 has a rectangular structure. The bottom of the extrusion box 2 is provided with a lower discharge pipe 18. The sandwich material in the extrusion box 2 will be discharged from the lower discharge pipe 18 when it is extruded. The lower discharge pipe 18 can transport the sandwich material to the filling nozzle 4 for filling.

[0027] The filling nozzle 4 includes a connecting pipe 14, a filling tube 15, and an electrically controlled valve 16. The connecting pipe 14 and the filling tube 15 are smoothly transitioned and integrally formed. The electrically controlled valve 16 is installed inside the connecting pipe 14. The filling tube 15 has an arc-shaped structure and a cone-shaped bottom output end. The connecting pipe 14 is sleeved on the lower discharge pipe 18. The connecting pipe 14 inside the filling nozzle 4 is for easy docking with the lower discharge pipe 18. The two are then fixed with cable ties, thereby achieving the installation of the filling nozzle 4 and the lower discharge pipe 18. The electrically controlled valve 16 can be opened or closed to open or close the filling nozzle 4. The filling tube 15 is a universal corrugated pipe, which makes it easy for workers to bend it and adjust the filling angle and direction.

[0028] The bottom of the extrusion box 2 is provided with a set of symmetrically distributed support legs 17. The support legs 17 have a rectangular structure. The set of support legs 17 at the bottom of the extrusion box 2 is welded to the bottom of the extrusion box 2, so that the structure is stable. The extrusion box 2 can also be used by assembling a conveyor with a set of support legs 17. The conveyor transports the cake to the bottom of the filling nozzle, and then fills the cake with the cake filling.

[0029] Working principle: During operation, the operator installs the device body 1 on the conveyor. When adjusting the device body 1, the operator puts the sandwich material into the feed hopper 3 for later use. Then, the reduction motor 8 starts, and the drive end of the reduction motor 8 drives the small drive gear 11 to rotate. Because the small drive gear 11 meshes with the first meshing gear 9, it can drive the first meshing gear 9 to rotate. The first meshing gear 9 meshes with the second meshing gear 10, so the first meshing gear 9 can drive the second meshing gear 10 to rotate. At this time, the first extrusion roller 6 of the first meshing gear 9 and the second extrusion roller 7 of the second meshing gear 10 can be driven. The first extrusion roller 6 and the second extrusion roller 7 rotate inward, so that the sandwich material can be squeezed into the filling nozzle 4 through the extrusion box 2 for filling.

[0030] The present invention comprises: 1. a device body; 2. an extrusion box; 3. a feed hopper; 4. a filling nozzle; 5. a filling device; 6. a first extrusion roller; 7. a second extrusion roller; 8. a reduction motor; 9. a first meshing gear; 10. a second meshing gear; 11. a small drive gear; 12. a mounting bearing seat; 13. a small extrusion block; 14. a connecting pipe; 15. a filling pipe; 16. an electrically controlled valve; 17. a support foot; and 18. a lower discharge pipe. All components are general standard parts or parts known to those skilled in the art, and their structure and principles are readily understood by those skilled in the art. According to technical manuals or conventional experimental methods, the problem solved by this invention is that existing cake processing equipment cannot automatically fill the fillings into multi-layered cakes, thus requiring manual filling. This manual filling method leads to slow cake processing efficiency and reduces enterprise profits. This invention, through the combination of the above-mentioned components, can automatically fill the fillings into multi-layered cakes, thereby reducing the burden on workers and improving cake production efficiency.

[0031] The foregoing has shown and described the basic principles, main features, and advantages of this utility model. It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that this utility model is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that it can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or basic characteristics of this utility model.

No reference numerals in the claims should be construed as limiting the scope of the claims.

[0032] Furthermore, it should be understood that although this specification describes embodiments, not every embodiment contains only one independent technical solution. This narrative style is merely for clarity. Those skilled in the art should consider the specification as a whole, and the technical solutions in each embodiment can also be appropriately combined to form other embodiments that can be understood by those skilled in the art.
