Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of candy cooling technology, specifically a candy cooling and temperature-reducing conveying assembly. Background Technology

[0002] Existing candy cooling devices typically consist of a base, a conveyor belt, and a cooling fan. The base has internal channels for candy to enter and exit, the conveyor belt runs through the base to transport the candy, and the fan is installed on the top or side of the base to cool the candy by blowing air.

[0003] However, when cooling the candy with air, it is easy for the candy to fall off the conveyor belt onto the ground on both sides, which is not conducive to its use. Therefore, it is necessary to develop a candy cooling and conveying component. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this section is to outline some aspects of the embodiments of this utility model and to briefly introduce some preferred embodiments. Simplifications or omissions may be made in this section, as well as in the abstract and title of this application, to avoid obscuring the purpose of these documents; however, such simplifications or omissions should not be used to limit the scope of this utility model.

[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, according to one aspect of the present invention, the present invention provides the following technical solution:

[0006] A candy cooling and conveying assembly, comprising a base, a candy limiting mechanism, and a drive mechanism:

[0007] The base has an internal mounting cavity, with both ends of the mounting cavity connected to the two sides of the base. The two ends of the mounting cavity allow candy to enter and exit. The inner side of the base is provided with a conveyor belt for transporting candy. The conveyor belt extends through one end of the mounting cavity and is located outside the base. The top of the base, above the conveyor belt, is provided with a cooling fan for cooling the candy.

[0008] The candy limiting mechanism is set inside the base to block both sides of the candy. It includes two limiting baffles suspended on the upper surface of the conveyor belt. The candy transported by the conveyor belt is located between the two limiting baffles, and the gap between the bottom of the limiting baffle and the upper surface of the conveyor belt is smaller than the minimum outer diameter of the candy.

[0009] The drive mechanism is located inside the base and is used to drive the two limiting baffles to move towards each other about the conveyor belt.

[0010] As a preferred embodiment of the candy cooling and conveying assembly of this utility model, the front sidewall of the base is hinged with a front door, and the front door is aligned with the area where the mounting cavity is located.

[0012] As a preferred embodiment of the candy cooling and conveying assembly of this utility model, the driving mechanism includes vertical fixing plates fixed around the top wall of the mounting cavity. Two fixing plates on the same side are rotatably connected by bearings with double-threaded rods of opposite directions. The rods of the two double-threaded rods of opposite directions pass through the side walls of two limiting baffles through the threads.

[0013] In a preferred embodiment of the candy cooling and conveying assembly described in this utility model, the front ends of the two double-threaded rods are provided with sprockets, and the two sprockets rotate synchronously via a chain.

[0023] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the embodiments of this utility model will be described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0024] Please see Figures 1-2 The diagram shows a structural schematic of an embodiment of the candy cooling and conveying assembly of this utility model. Please refer to [link / reference]. Figures 1-2 This section provides a detailed introduction to the candy cooling and conveying components.

[0025] The candy cooling and conveying assembly includes a base 100, a candy limiting mechanism 200, and a drive mechanism 300.

[0026] The base 100 has an internal mounting cavity 101. The two ends of the mounting cavity 101 are connected to the two sides of the base 100. The two ends of the mounting cavity 101 are for candy to enter and exit. The inner side of the base 100 is provided with a conveyor belt 102 for conveying candy. The conveyor belt 102 extends through one end of the mounting cavity 101 and is located outside the base 100. The top of the base 100, above the conveyor belt 102, is provided with a cooling fan 104 for cooling the candy.

[0027] The candy limiting mechanism 200 is set inside the base 100 to cover both sides of the candy. It includes two limiting baffles 201 suspended on the upper surface of the conveyor belt 102. The candy transported by the conveyor belt 102 is located between the two limiting baffles 201, and the gap between the bottom of the limiting baffle 201 and the upper surface of the conveyor belt 102 is smaller than the minimum outer diameter of the candy.

[0028] The drive mechanism 300 is located inside the base 100 and is used to drive the two limiting baffles 201 to move toward each other about the conveyor belt 102.

[0029] Furthermore, a front door 103 is hinged to the front side wall of the base 100. The front door 103 is aligned with the area where the mounting cavity 101 is located. Opening the front door 103 facilitates the adjustment or maintenance of components such as the drive mechanism 300 inside the base 100.

[0030] Furthermore, the top of the base 100 is provided with an installation port, and the cooling fan 104 is fixedly installed in the installation port. A dust cover 105 is installed on the upper edge of the installation port by screws. The dust cover 105 reduces the amount of dust entering the interior of the base 100.

[0031] Furthermore, the drive mechanism 300 includes vertical fixing plates 301 fixed around the top wall of the inner cavity of the mounting cavity 101. Two fixed plates 301 on the same side are rotatably connected by bearings to a double-threaded rod 302 with positive and negative threads. The rods of the two double-threaded rods 302 pass through the side walls of two limiting baffles 201 respectively through threaded rotation. The front ends of the two double-threaded rods 302 are provided with sprockets 303. The two sprockets 303 rotate synchronously through a chain 304. The chain 304 is provided with a tensioning device. The front end of one of the double-threaded rods 302 is provided with a hand crank 305. The hand crank 305 can drive the sprocket 303 and the chain 304 to rotate, thereby adjusting the distance between the two limiting baffles 201, which is convenient for use with conveyor belts 102 of different widths.

[0032] It should be noted that the two double-threaded rods 302 with positive and negative threads and the two sprockets 303 are of the same model, so that the two double-threaded rods 302 with positive and negative threads can simultaneously drive the two limit baffles 201 to move in opposite directions. If the threads on the double-threaded rods 302 with positive and negative threads cannot achieve the desired effect, one of the double-threaded rods 302 with positive and negative threads can be converted into a guide rod, which directly passes through the side wall of the limit baffle 201 through a linear bearing. In this case, there is no need to install sprockets 303 and chains 304; it is only necessary to drive the other double-threaded rod 302 with external threads to rotate.

[0033] Although the present invention has been described above with reference to embodiments, various modifications can be made and components can be replaced with equivalents without departing from the scope of the present invention. In particular, as long as there is no structural conflict, the features in the embodiments disclosed in this invention can be combined with each other in any way. The lack of an exhaustive description of these combinations in this specification is merely for the sake of brevity and resource conservation. Therefore, the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed herein, but includes all technical solutions falling within the scope of the claims.
