Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to a feeding device, specifically a feeding device capable of bidirectionally discharging dough sheets, and belongs to the field of food processing technology. Background Technology

[0002] With the adjustment of dietary structure, the demand for staple bread is increasing, and the variety of bread styles is also increasing. Among them, the croissant is a widely loved food. Its production process involves making dough sheets, cutting the dough sheets, rolling, and baking. When cutting the dough sheets, a knife is usually used to cut a whole sheet of dough into multiple tightly arranged pieces, such as triangular pieces. To ensure production efficiency, multiple rows and columns of triangular pieces are usually cut simultaneously.

[0003] A search revealed Chinese Patent Publication No. CN216292808U, which discloses a bidirectional dough sheet separation device and a bidirectional rolling machine. The device includes: a dough sheet conveying device; a first separation conveying device, one end of which is located below or connected to the conveying section of the dough sheet conveying device; a second separation conveying device, one end of which is located below or connected to the conveying section of the dough sheet conveying device, the direction in which the second separation conveying device conveys the dough sheets being different from both the direction of the first and second separation conveying devices; and a separation device that sends odd-numbered rows of dough sheets from the conveying section of the dough sheet conveying device to the first separation conveying device and sends even-numbered rows of dough sheets from the conveying section of the dough sheet conveying device to the second separation conveying device. This invention's bidirectional dough sheet separation device and bidirectional rolling machine overcome the shortcomings of existing dough sheet separation and turning devices, which have complex structures.

[0004] A search revealed Chinese Patent Publication No. CN205431796U, which discloses a rotating device for separating fermented croissant dough sheets.

[0021] This utility model embodiment provides a feeding device capable of bidirectional sheet output.

[0022] Example 1:

[0023] Please see Figure 1-4 As shown, a bidirectional sheet feeding device includes a fixed frame 1, a conveyor belt 2 mounted on the fixed frame 1, a limiting component 3 for limiting the sheet position mounted on the fixed frame 1, a discharge component 4 mounted on the fixed frame 1, an adjusting component 5 for adjusting the position of the discharge component 4 mounted on the fixed frame 1, a second conveyor belt 6 and a third conveyor belt 7 for conveying the sheet mounted on the fixed frame 1, a fourth conveyor belt 8 mounted at the lower part of the second conveyor belt 6 and the third conveyor belt 7, and a cover plate 9 fixedly mounted on the top of the fixed frame 1.

[0024] The spacing of the dough sheets on conveyor belt 1 is adjusted by limiting component 3. The dough sheets are then transported to unloading component 4 via conveyor belt 1. The unloading component 4 then transports the dough sheets to conveyor belt 2 6 and conveyor belt 3 7. Conveyor belt 2 6 directly transports the dough sheets away, while conveyor belt 3 7 transports them in the opposite direction to conveyor belt 4 8. The dough sheets are then transported away again via conveyor belt 4 8. Conveyor belt 2 6 directly transports the dough sheets in the forward direction, while conveyor belt 3 7 transports them in the reverse direction to conveyor belt 4 8, achieving bidirectional discharge. Guide wheel 12 can limit the dough sheets transported to conveyor belt 4 8, improving equipment utilization and adapting to different process layouts or product specification requirements.

[0025] Example 2:

[0026] The limiting component 3 includes a fixed block 31 fixedly installed on the fixed frame 1, a connecting plate 32 installed on the fixed block 31, a connecting rod 33 rotatably installed on the connecting plate 32, a rotating rod 34 rotatably installed on the connecting rod 33, and a limiting wheel 35 fixedly installed on the rotating rod 34. When the dough is conveyed to the conveyor belt 2, the connecting rod 33 is pushed upward. After the dough passes, the connecting rod 33 falls freely, which blocks the dough at the rear.

[0027] The unloading assembly 4 includes a mounting rod 41 that is slidably mounted on a fixed frame 1. Both ends of the mounting rod 41 are rotatably mounted with rollers 42, and a conveyor belt 43 is mounted on the outer side of the rollers 42.

[0028] Example 3:

[0029] The adjustment assembly 5 includes a motor 51 fixedly mounted on the fixed frame 1, a push rod 53 rotatably mounted on the mounting rod 41, a rod body 52 fixedly connected to the output end of the motor 51, the rod body 52 and the push rod 53 rotatably connected, and a transmission rod 54 fixedly mounted on the rod body 52; a slider 10 fixedly mounted on the mounting rod 41, and a sliding groove is provided on the fixed frame 1; the motor 51 drives the rod body 52 to swing left and right by rotating forward and reverse, and the rod body 52 drives the push rod 53 to move left and right on the fixed frame 1, adjusting the position of the mounting rod 41. When the mounting rod 41 drives the conveyor belt 43 to a designated position under the first conveyor belt 2, the first conveyor belt 2 transports the dough to the conveyor belt 43. When the conveyor belt 43 moves backward, it transports the dough to the second conveyor belt 6 and the third conveyor belt 7. The rotating roller 42 is externally connected to a transmission device. When the mounting rod 41 moves, it drives the slider 10 to slide on the sliding groove of the fixed frame 1, which can improve the stability of the conveyor belt 43.

[0030] A fixed rod 11 is fixedly installed on the fixed frame 1. Both conveyor belt 6 and conveyor belt 7 are installed on the fixed rod 11. A guide wheel 12 is rotatably installed on the fixed rod 11. The guide wheel 12 is installed on the outside of the conveyor belt 7. Both conveyor belt 6 and conveyor belt 7 are installed on the fixed rod 11 through connecting rollers and transmission equipment. The transmission directions of conveyor belt 6 and conveyor belt 7 are opposite. The guide wheel 12 can limit the movement of the surface material conveyed to the conveyor belt 8.

[0031] In use, when the dough is conveyed to the surface of conveyor belt 2, the limiting component 3 activates its adjustment function, pushing the connecting rod 33 upward to separate the limiting wheel 35 from the dough, allowing the current dough to pass. The connecting rod 33 then falls freely, and the limiting wheel 35 blocks subsequent dough, controlling the distance between adjacent doughs. The motor 51 rotates forward and backward, driving the rod 52 to swing left and right. The rod 52 drives the push rod 53 to move left and right on the fixed frame 1, adjusting the position of the mounting rod 41. When the mounting rod 41 drives the conveyor belt 43 to the designated position at the bottom of conveyor belt 2, conveyor belt 2 conveys the dough onto conveyor belt 43. When conveyor belt 43 moves backward, it conveys the dough onto conveyor belt 6 and conveyor belt 7. The roller 42 is connected to an external transmission device. When the mounting rod 41 moves, it drives the slider 10 to slide on the groove of the fixed frame 1, which can improve the stability of the conveyor belt 43. The dough is transferred to the second conveyor belt 6 and the third conveyor belt 7. The second conveyor belt 6 directly conveys the dough in the forward direction, and the third conveyor belt 7 conveys the dough in the reverse direction to the fourth conveyor belt 8, realizing bidirectional discharge. The guide wheel 12 can limit the dough conveyed to the fourth conveyor belt 8, improve the equipment utilization rate, and adapt to different process layouts or product specifications. The second conveyor belt 6, the third conveyor belt 7 and the fourth conveyor belt 8 are driven independently and the conveying direction can be controlled separately. Moreover, the addition of a discharge direction only requires increasing the number of conveyor belts, without modifying the overall device, thus reducing production modification costs.
