Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of mooncake filling production technology, specifically a cooling device for mooncake filling production. Background Technology

[0002] After cooling, the mooncake filling is easier to roll into balls, making it easier to make mooncakes. The cooled filling is also more stable and less prone to deformation, which can ensure the shape and taste of the mooncakes. At the same time, cooling allows the moisture in the filling to evaporate fully, making the filling drier and less prone to spoilage. Cooling also allows the flavor of the filling to become richer and the taste to become more mellow.

[0003] Since mooncake fillings are mostly produced in bulk, cooling devices can only cool the outer surface of the filling, while the internal temperature is difficult to lower. This results in uneven temperatures between the inside and outside of the filling, affecting its texture. Therefore, this method does not meet current requirements. To address this, we propose a cooling device for mooncake filling production. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a cooling device for the production of mooncake fillings, in order to solve the problem mentioned in the background art that mooncake fillings are mostly produced in clumps, so the cooling device can only cool the outer surface of the filling, while the internal temperature of the filling is difficult to lower, resulting in uneven temperature between the inner and outer sides of the filling and affecting the taste of the filling.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a cooling device for mooncake filling production, comprising a cooling box, an inlet on one side of the cooling box, an outlet at the bottom of the cooling box away from the inlet, and drive rollers rotatably mounted on both sides inside the cooling box. One end of one of the drive rollers extends through to the outside of the cooling box and is fixedly connected to a motor. A drive belt is driven between the outer surfaces of the two drive rollers. Symmetrical grooves are provided on one side of the upper end of the drive belt, located on the inner wall of the cooling box. A movable frame is slidably connected between the two grooves. A pressure roller is rotatably connected to the bottom of the movable frame. A support plate is provided on the side of the pressure roller away from the inlet, inside the drive belt, and a cooling device is mounted on the support plate.

[0006] Preferably, the top of the movable frame is rotatably connected to a threaded rod via a pivot, the top of the threaded rod threaded through the top of the cooling box and extending to the outside of the cooling box.

[0007] Preferably, the cooling device includes a cooler, a condenser box, and cooling pipes. The cooler is located on one side of the bottom of the cooling box and is connected to one side of the condenser box. A water pump is connected to the upper end of the condenser box via a pipe.

[0008] Preferably, the support plate is equipped with a coiled cooling pipe, one end of which is connected to a water pump, and the other end of which is connected in a through connection to a condenser.

[0009] Preferably, a cooling fan is provided above the cooling device and at the top of the cooling box.

[0010] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0011] 1. This utility model rotates a threaded rod so that the threaded rod thread passes through the top of the cooling box and pushes the movable frame equipped with pressure rollers along the slide groove towards the side closer to the transmission belt. Then, the produced mooncake filling is placed on the transmission belt through the feed port. At this time, the motor is started to drive the transmission roller to drive. While the transmission roller is driving, it drives the transmission belt to convey the mooncake filling to the bottom of the pressure roller. The pressure roller flattens the mooncake filling, reduces the thickness of the mooncake filling, and improves the cooling efficiency.

[0012] 2. This utility model starts the refrigeration unit to keep the water inside the condenser at a low temperature, and then uses a water pump to deliver the cold water to the coiled cooling pipes, thereby circulating and cooling the bottom of the mooncake filling. At the same time, the cold air fan is started to cool the top surface of the mooncake filling, thus improving the cooling efficiency. Attached Figure Description

Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.

[0018] Please see Figures 1 to 3 This utility model provides an embodiment of a cooling device for mooncake filling production, comprising a cooling box 1, an inlet 101 on one side of the cooling box 1, an outlet 102 at the bottom of the cooling box 1 away from the inlet 101, and transmission rollers 3 rotatably mounted on both sides inside the cooling box 1. One end of one of the transmission rollers 3 extends through to the outside of the cooling box 1 and is fixedly connected to a motor 2. A transmission belt 4 is connected between the outer surfaces of the two transmission rollers 3. A symmetrical groove 103 is provided on one side of the upper end of the transmission belt 4 and on the inner wall of the cooling box 1. A movable frame 7 is slidably connected between the two grooves 103. A pressure roller 8 is rotatably connected to the bottom of the movable frame 7. A support plate 5 is provided on the side of the pressure roller 8 away from the inlet 101 and inside the transmission belt 4. A cooling device 6 is mounted on the support plate 5.

[0019] The top of the movable frame 7 is rotatably connected to a threaded rod 9 via a rotating shaft. The threaded rod 9 passes through the top of the cooling box 1 and extends to the outside of the cooling box 1. By rotating the threaded rod 9, the threaded rod 9 passes through the top of the cooling box 1 and pushes the movable frame 7, which is equipped with a pressure roller 8, along the slide 103 towards the side closer to the transmission belt 4. Then, the produced mooncake filling is placed on the transmission belt 4 through the feed port 101. At this time, the motor 2 is started to drive the transmission roller 3. While the transmission roller 3 is driving, it drives the transmission belt 4 to convey the mooncake filling to the bottom of the pressure roller 8. The pressure roller 8 flattens the mooncake filling, reduces the thickness of the mooncake filling, and improves the cooling efficiency.

[0020] The cooling device 6 includes a refrigerator 601, a condenser box 602, and a cooling pipe 604. The refrigerator 601 is located on one side of the bottom of the cooling box 1 and is connected to one side of the condenser box 602. The upper end of the condenser box 602 is connected to a water pump 603 through a pipe. A spiral cooling pipe 604 is installed on the support plate 5. One end of the cooling pipe 604 is connected to the water pump 603, and the other end of the cooling pipe 604 is connected through the condenser box 602. When the refrigerator 601 is started, the water inside the condenser box 602 is kept at a low temperature, and the cold water is transported to the spiral cooling pipe 604 through the water pump 603, thereby circulating and cooling the bottom of the mooncake filling. A cold air fan 10 is provided above the cooling device 6 and at the top of the cooling box 1. When the cold air fan 10 is started, the upper surface of the mooncake filling is cooled, thereby improving the cooling efficiency.

[0021] When using the cooling device for mooncake filling production, the threaded rod 9 is rotated so that its threads pass through the top of the cooling box 1, pushing the movable frame 7 equipped with pressure roller 8 along the slide 103 towards the side closer to the transmission belt 4. Then, the produced mooncake filling is placed on the transmission belt 4 through the feed port 101. At this time, the motor 2 is started to drive the transmission roller 3. While the transmission roller 3 is driving, it drives the transmission belt 4 to convey the mooncake filling to the bottom of the pressure roller 8. The pressure roller 8 flattens the mooncake filling, reducing its thickness and improving the cooling efficiency. Then, the cooling device 6 is started. By starting the refrigerator 601, the water inside the condenser 602 is kept at a low temperature. The water pump 603 delivers the cold water to the coiled cooling pipe 604, thereby circulating and cooling the bottom of the mooncake filling. At the same time, the cold air fan 10 is started to cool the top surface of the mooncake filling, thereby improving the cooling efficiency.
