Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of candy coating machine technology, and in particular to a tablet candy coating machine. Background Technology
[0002] A tablet candy coating machine is a device used to coat the surface of compressed candies with coatings such as sugar coatings and films. It uses a rotating coating pan to tumble the candies and a spraying device to spray coating liquid and allow it to evaporate and solidify, thus achieving uniform coating adhesion in food processing machinery.
[0003] The tablet candy coating machine uses a motor to drive the tilting coating pan to rotate, causing the candy to continuously tumble inside the pan for uniform movement. The spraying device atomizes the coating liquid and sprays it onto the surface of the candy, forming a thin layer. Heating or natural evaporation causes the coating liquid solvent to dissipate, and the coating material to solidify and adhere, completing the coating process.
[0004] In the existing technology, most tablet candy coating machines use a rough flow regulation method, which makes it difficult to make fine adjustments for candies of different shapes and sizes and coating liquids of different viscosities. This often results in localized over-thickness or under-thickness during the coating process. Therefore, a tablet candy coating machine is proposed to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a tablet candy coating machine that solves the problem of localized excessively thick or thin coatings often occurring during the coating process.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides a tablet candy coating machine, including a housing, a conveying pipe fixedly connected to the top of the housing, an adjusting mechanism fixedly connected to the bottom of the conveying pipe, a cleaning mechanism sleeved on the outside of the adjusting mechanism, and a coating tank rotatably connected to the front side of the housing.
[0007] The adjusting mechanism includes a nozzle, the top of which is fixedly connected to the bottom of the delivery pipe. A connecting ring is fixedly connected to the outside of the nozzle. A filter screen one is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the nozzle. A filter screen two is rotatably connected to the inside of the nozzle. A lever is fixedly connected to the outside of the filter screen two. A limit block is rotatably connected to the rear side of the lever. Multiple limit grooves are provided inside the connecting ring. A reset component is provided inside the outside of the connecting ring.
[0008] The reset assembly includes a reset groove, which is formed on the outside of the connecting ring. A spring is fixedly connected to the top inner wall of the reset groove, and a connecting block is fixedly connected to the bottom of the spring.
[0009] The cleaning mechanism includes a collar, a connecting ring fixedly connected to the bottom of the collar, multiple connecting plates fixedly connected to the outside of the connecting ring, a connecting groove opened inside the connecting plate, a second spring fixedly connected to the left inner wall of one of the connecting grooves, a connecting plate fixedly connected to the right side of the second spring, a cleaning plate rotatably connected to the opposite sides of the multiple connecting plates, and multiple connecting components opened inside the collar.
[0010] The connecting component includes through holes, and multiple through holes are formed on the outside of the collar. The conveying pipe is rotatably connected to a rotating ring, and multiple protrusions are fixedly connected to the outside of the rotating ring.
[0011] The outer side of the limiting block is in contact with the inner wall of the limiting groove, and the rear side of the second filter screen is in contact with the front side of the first filter screen.
[0012] The connecting block is externally slidably connected to the inside of the reset groove, and the rear side of the connecting block is fixedly connected to the front side of the toggle block.
[0013] The connecting plate is externally slidably connected to the inside of the connecting groove, and the opposite sides of the two cleaning plates are in contact with the inner wall of the coating tank.
[0014] The inner wall of the through hole is in contact with the outer side of the protrusion, and the cleaning plate is cleaned by the empty rotation of the coating tank.
[0015] This utility model has the following beneficial effects:
[0016] 1. In this utility model, by rotating the limiting block to disengage from the inside of the limiting groove, and then by manually rotating the dial, the filter screen two is driven to rotate inside the nozzle. Then, by the corresponding combination of the different holes of the filter screen two and the filter screen one, the limiting block is inserted into the limiting groove inside the connecting ring. When the dial moves, it will drive the connecting block to squeeze the spring one in the reset groove, thereby achieving precise control of the spray flow rate so that the coating liquid can evenly cover the surface of the candy, avoiding adhesion due to excessive spraying or uneven coating due to insufficient spraying.
[0017] 2. In this utility model, the collar is placed outside the rotating ring, and then the collar is rotated so that the protrusion on the rotating ring engages with the through hole on the collar. After engagement, the collar is fixed by screws. The coating tank is rotated by a motor. While rotating, the inner wall of the tank is cleaned by the cleaning plate. When the cleaning plate encounters impurities that are difficult to remove in one go, the spring provides cushioning, thereby preventing coating material residue and deterioration, avoiding contamination of subsequent batches of candy, reducing frictional wear during equipment operation, extending the service life of the coating machine, and ensuring stable coating effect.

[0029] The rear side of the lever 35 is rotatably connected to the limiting block 36. When the filter screen 34 moves to a suitable position, the limiting block 36 is engaged with the corresponding limiting groove 37 to fix the filter screen 34. The connecting ring 32 has multiple limiting grooves 37 inside, which are used to engage with the limiting block 36 to fix the filter screen 34. The connecting ring 32 has a reset assembly 38 inside and outside, which includes a reset groove 381. The connecting ring 32 provides a reset groove 381. The space for the reset groove 381 is opened on the outside of the connecting ring 32. The connecting ring 32 provides space for the reset groove 381. A spring 382 is fixedly connected to the top inner wall of the reset groove 381. The spring 382 has an elastic function and provides elastic support for its connecting block 383.

When the toggle block 35 is moved, it can simultaneously drive the connecting block 383 to slide and squeeze the spring 382.
[0030] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 5 The cleaning mechanism 4 includes a collar 41, which provides fixation and support for the connecting ring 42. The bottom of the collar 41 is fixedly connected to the connecting ring 42, which provides fixation and support for multiple external connecting plates 43. Multiple connecting plates 43 are fixedly connected to the outside of the connecting ring 42. The connecting plates 43 provide space for the opening of the connecting groove 44. The connecting groove 44 is opened inside the connecting plate 43, which provides fixation and support for the second spring 45. The second spring 45 is fixedly connected to the left inner wall of one of the connecting grooves 44. The second spring 45 has an elastic function and provides elastic support for the connecting plate 46. The right side of the second spring 45 is fixedly connected to the connecting plate 46, which provides fixation and support for its cleaning plate 47.
[0031] Multiple connecting plates 46 are rotatably connected to cleaning plates 47 on opposite sides. After the coating tank 5 is coated, the cleaning plates 47 are idling under the control of a motor, so that the inner wall of the coating tank 5 can be cleaned during the rotation. Multiple connecting components 48 are provided inside the collar 41. The connecting components 48 include through holes 481, which are used to engage with protrusions 483 to complete the connection and provide support for the entire cleaning mechanism 4. The outside of the multiple through holes 481 is opened inside the collar 41, and the collar 41 provides space for the through holes 481. The conveying pipe 2 is rotatably connected to a rotating ring 482. The rotating ring 482 provides fixation and support for the multiple external protrusions 483. Multiple protrusions 483 are fixedly connected to the outside of the rotating ring 482. The protrusions 483 are used to engage with the through holes 481 to complete the connection and fixation. After engagement, they are fixed with screws.
[0032] Reference Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 5 The outer side of the limiting block 36 contacts the inner wall of the limiting groove 37, and the limiting block 36 is engaged with the inner wall of the limiting groove 37, thereby completing the limiting and fixing of the second filter screen 34. The rear side of the second filter screen 34 contacts the front side of the first filter screen 33. When the second filter screen 34 rotates, the holes can correspond to different degrees, thereby achieving the effect of adjusting the spray. The outer side of the connecting block 383 is slidably connected to the inside of the reset groove 381. The reset groove 381 provides limiting and guiding functions for the connecting block 383. The rear side of the connecting block 383 is fixedly connected to the front side of the lever block 35. The connecting block 383 provides limiting and guiding functions for the lever block 35. The outer side of the connecting plate 46 is slidably connected to the inside of the connecting groove 44. The connecting groove 44 provides a limiting and guiding function for the connecting plate 46. The opposite sides of the two cleaning plates 47 are in contact with the inner wall of the coating tank 5. The cleaning plates 47 can clean the inner wall of the coating tank 5. The inner wall of the through hole 481 is in contact with the outer side of the protrusion 483. The through hole 481 is used to engage with the protrusion 483 to complete the connection. The cleaning plates 47 are cleaned by the idling of the coating tank 5. After the coating tank 5 is coated, the cleaning plates 47 are idling by the motor, so that the inner wall of the coating tank 5 can be cleaned during the rotation.
[0033] Working principle: When the flow rate of the nozzle 31 needs to be adjusted, the operator first rotates the limiting block 36 out of the limiting groove 37, and then manually rotates the lever 35 to drive the filter screen 34 to rotate inside the nozzle 31. Then, by the corresponding combination of different holes of the filter screen 34 and the filter screen 33, the liquid flow area is changed to achieve the purpose of adjusting the spray flow rate. When the filter screen 34 rotates to the appropriate position, the limiting block 36 is inserted into the limiting groove 37 in the connecting ring 32 to complete the limiting and fixing. When the lever 35 moves, it will drive the connecting block 383 to squeeze the spring 382 in the reset groove 381, providing reset elasticity, which can push the lever 35 and the filter screen 34 to reset after use.
[0034] After coating is completed in coating tank 5, when cleaning coating tank 5 is required, first place its collar 41 outside the rotating ring 482, then rotate collar 41 so that the protrusion 483 on the rotating ring 482 engages with the through hole 481 on collar 41. After engagement, collar 41 is fixed by screws. Coating tank 5 is rotated by motor. While rotating, its inner wall is cleaned by cleaning plate 47. Spring 2 45 provides elastic support for connecting plate 46. When cleaning plate 47 encounters impurities that are difficult to remove in one go, spring 2 45 buffers the impact to avoid damage and ensure cleaning effect.
