[0002] In the pizza-making process, the even application of sauce has a significant impact on the taste and quality of the pizza.

[0003] Currently, traditional pizza sauce application methods mostly rely on manual operation. Operators use brushes or spoons to manually spread the sauce on the pizza dough. However, this method is not only inefficient, but also difficult to guarantee the thickness and uniformity of the sauce application on each pizza due to the subjectivity and instability of manual operation. This can easily result in the sauce being applied too thickly or too thinly, accumulating in certain areas, or not being applied properly, affecting the final quality of the pizza. Therefore, this utility model proposes a pizza sauce uniform application device to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a pizza sauce uniform application device to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

Detailed Implementation

[0022] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. 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 skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0023] Please see Figures 1 to 4 This utility model provides a technical solution: a pizza sauce uniform application device, including an application table 1, on which at least one tray 2, at least one application auxiliary mechanism 3, and at least one sauce supply box 4 are provided; the number can be reasonably set according to the type and size of the pizza to be processed; the application auxiliary mechanism 3 includes an applicator 31, which is connected to the sauce supply box 4 through a feed pipe 311; the applicator 31 is also connected to an adjusting plate 33 through an auxiliary frame 32, and the adjusting plate 33 is installed in the annular cavity 6 of the fixed frame 6. Inside 1, the adjusting plate 33 is connected to the annular cavity 61. The upper end of the adjusting plate 33 extends to the upper end of the annular cavity 61. The outer periphery of the upper end of the adjusting plate 33 is provided with an annular toothed groove 331. The annular toothed groove 331 meshes with the transmission tooth 34 on one side. The transmission tooth 34 is connected to the output end of the first motor 35. The first motor 35 is mounted on the fixed frame 6. The lateral dimension of the spreader 31 is adapted to the radius of the pizza. Furthermore, the spreader 31 has multiple sets of spray nozzles evenly distributed along the circumference. Each spray nozzle is connected to the internal channel of the feeding pipe 311.

[0024] With the lateral dimension of the spreader 31 adapted to the radius of the pizza, and multiple sets of spray nozzles distributed along the circumference, and the spray nozzles connected to the feed pipe 311, the sauce can be evenly sprayed onto the surface of the pizza as the adjusting plate 33 drives the spreader 31 to rotate. This avoids local accumulation of sauce or incomplete application, effectively ensuring the uniformity and thickness of the pizza sauce application, and significantly improving the quality of the pizza.

[0025] Please see Figures 1 to 4 The applicator 31 has an assembly cavity 312 on one end, and the lower end of the auxiliary frame 32 is inserted into the assembly cavity 312 and fixedly connected to the applicator 31 by bolts.

[0026] Please see Figures 1 to 4The upper end of the auxiliary frame 32 is provided with an integrally formed positioning block 321. The auxiliary frame 32 is installed on the upper surface of the adjustment plate 33 through the cooperation of the positioning block 321 and the bolt. When the applicator 31, auxiliary frame 32 and other components are damaged and need to be repaired or replaced, the auxiliary frame 32 can be removed from the adjustment plate 33 simply by loosening the bolt, without having to completely disassemble the complex applicator auxiliary mechanism 3.

[0027] Please see Figures 1 to 4 The spreading table 1 is equipped with two sets of trays 2, two sets of spreading auxiliary mechanisms 3 and two sets of sauce supply boxes 4 arranged side by side. Each set of trays 2, together with the corresponding spreading auxiliary mechanism 3 and sauce supply box 4, constitutes an independent sauce spreading area.

[0028] Since the spreading table 1 has two independent sauce spreading areas arranged side by side, while the above operation is being carried out, another set of trays 2, spreading auxiliary mechanism 3 and sauce supply box 4 can simultaneously spread sauce on another pizza, thereby improving the efficiency of pizza sauce spreading.

[0029] Please see Figures 1 to 4 A controller 11 is located in the middle of the spreading table 1. The controller 11 is electrically connected to the first motor 35 and the material pump in the sauce supply box 4. In the dual-station design, the controller 11 can independently or synchronously control the two sets of work. The controller 11 can be implemented by PLC programming technology in the existing technology, which will not be described in detail here.

[0030] Please see Figures 1 to 4 The application table 1 is equipped with positioning frames 5 at both ends, and the fixing frame 6 is installed directly above the two trays 2 through the positioning frames 5 at both ends.

[0031] In use, the pizza is placed on the tray 2 of the spreading table 1, and the sauce supply tank 4 is filled with pizza sauce. The controller 11 starts the first motor 35 and the pump in the sauce supply tank 4. The first motor 35 starts working, and its output end drives the transmission gear 34 to rotate. Since the transmission gear 34 meshes with the annular groove 331 on the outer periphery of the upper end of the adjusting plate 33, the adjusting plate 33 starts to rotate in the annular cavity 61 of the fixed frame 6. As the adjusting plate 33 rotates, the spreader 31 is driven to rotate through the auxiliary frame 32. At the same time, the pump in the sauce supply tank 4 delivers the sauce to the spreader 31 through the supply pipe 311. Since the lateral dimension of the spreader 31 is adapted to the radius of the pizza, and multiple sets of spray nozzles are evenly distributed along the circumference and connected to the internal channel of the supply pipe 311, the sauce is evenly sprayed from the spray nozzles during the rotation of the spreader 31. The sauce is evenly spread on the surface of the pizza. The spreader 31 is a rotary sauce dispenser made of food-grade stainless steel. The spreader 31 integrates a flow regulating valve group and a conical dispersing nozzle. This is a mature technology and will not be described in detail here. It is worth noting that the feed tube 311 is made of flexible hose, which has good flexibility and deformation adaptability. The first motor 35 is a reciprocating motor. Its operating logic is as follows: it rotates in the forward direction during the first rotation. After completing one full rotation, the second rotation automatically switches to the reverse rotation mode. In this way, as the spreader 31 rotates with the regulating plate 33, the first motor 35 alternately changes the rotation direction, which effectively avoids the risk of entanglement caused by the continuous unidirectional rotation of the feed tube 311. After the sauce is spread, the pizza with the sauce can be removed from the tray 2 for the subsequent pizza making process.

[0032] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
