A good candy not only needs to have a good taste, but also needs to have high requirements for its appearance and design. As a result, all kinds of candies with rich themes and diverse styles have emerged, and filled candies are one of them.
[0003] In the process of making filled candies, it is necessary to first pour the candy skin material into the molding mold, then pour the candy core material into the center of the top surface of the candy skin material, and then wrap the candy skin around the candy core to form a filled candy by closing the mold. In view of the above requirements, this utility model proposes a rotary valve pouring head for filling candy production. Utility Model Content

The first valve core sleeve groove and the second valve core sleeve groove have the same structure, but the diameter of the piston rod suction holes is different.
[0008] A further improvement is that the first rotary valve component includes a rotary valve core fitted into a first valve core sleeve groove, and a first rotating seat and a second rotating seat are fitted on the front and rear sides of the rotary valve core. The front side of the rotary valve core is connected to a first motor for performing 90º reciprocating rotation of the rotary valve core to open and close the valve.

[0015] This utility model provides a rotary valve casting head for the production of filled candies. A first material box, a first rotary valve component, and a first telescopic piston column assembly are designed at the right end of the casting plate box to form a rotary valve casting head for the candy skin material. A second material box, a second rotary valve component, and a second telescopic piston column assembly are designed at the left end of the casting plate box to form a rotary valve casting head for the candy core material. The rotary valve component uses a 90º reciprocating rotation to switch the opening and closing of the valve core. An appropriate amount of material is first drawn into the casting plate box and temporarily stored through the telescopic piston column assembly. After the switching operation of the rotary valve component, the telescopic piston column assembly can push the temporarily stored material in the casting plate box to flow out through the discharge hole, realizing the corresponding casting of the candy skin material and the candy core material into the molding mold. This design is highly practical. Attached Figure Description

[0023] Please see Figure 1-6 The present invention relates to a schematic diagram of a rotary valve casting head for the production of filled candies: its structure includes a frame 1, and a casting plate box 2 is fitted in the middle of the frame 1. A first material box 3 and a second material box 4 are respectively fitted through the left and right sides of the top surface of the casting plate box 2. A first rotary valve component 5 is longitudinally fitted at the right front end of the casting plate box 2, and a second rotary valve component 6 is fitted at the left front end of the casting plate box 2. A first telescopic piston column assembly 7 is movably fitted on the right side of the casting plate box 2, and a second telescopic piston column assembly 8 is movably fitted on the left side of the casting plate box 2.
[0024] The casting plate box 2 includes a plate box body 21. The front right end of the plate box body 21 has a first valve core sleeve groove 22 for the first rotary valve component 5 to be installed, and the front left end of the plate box body 21 has a second valve core sleeve groove 23 for the second rotary valve component 6 to be installed. The left side wall of the first valve core sleeve groove 22 has a plurality of piston column suction holes 221 that are spaced apart. The top wall of the first valve core sleeve groove 22 has a plurality of feed holes 222 that communicate with the first material box 3, and the bottom wall of the first valve core sleeve groove 22 has a plurality of discharge holes 223 that are spaced apart. The first valve core sleeve groove 22 and the second valve core sleeve groove 23 have the same structure, but the diameter of the piston column suction holes 221 is different.
[0025] The first rotary valve component 5 includes a rotary valve core 51 fitted inside the first valve core groove 22. The rotary valve core 51 is fitted with a first rotating seat 52 and a second rotating seat 53 on its front and rear sides. The front side of the rotary valve core 51 is connected to a first motor 54 for performing 90º reciprocating rotation to open and close the valve. The first rotary valve component 5 and the second rotary valve component 6 have the same structure.
[0026] The rotary valve core 51 is provided with multiple discharge channels 511 spaced apart, and each discharge channel 511 is L-shaped.
[0027] The first telescopic piston rod assembly 7 includes two rack slides 71, on which racks 72 are fitted. A push-pull bracket 73 is connected between the two racks 72 on the left side. Multiple piston rods 74 for fitting into the piston rod suction hole 221 are arranged laterally on the left side of the push-pull bracket 73. A rotating gear 75 meshes between the top surfaces of the two racks 72. A second motor 76 is connected to the front side of the rotating gear 75. The first telescopic piston rod assembly 7 and the second telescopic piston rod assembly 8 have the same structure, but the diameters of the piston rods 74 are different.
[0028] Working principle:
[0029] In use, the candy coating material is poured into the first material box 3, corresponding to the large-diameter piston column 74 of the first telescopic piston column assembly 7. The candy core material is poured into the second material box 4, corresponding to the small-diameter piston column of the second telescopic piston column assembly 8. During pouring, the first rotary valve core 51 on the first rotary valve component 5 rotates 90º, connecting the feed hole 222, the discharge channel 511, and the piston column suction hole 221. Then, the second motor 76, the rotary gear component 75, the push-pull bracket 73, and the rack 72 on the rack slide 71 drive the piston column 74 to pull it inward and outward towards the piston column suction hole 221, creating suction and drawing the candy coating material from the first material box 3 into the piston column suction hole 221. The material is temporarily stored in the first rotary valve 5. Then, the rotary valve core 51 on the first rotary valve 5 rotates 90° in the opposite direction, so that the piston column suction hole 221, the discharge channel 511 and the discharge hole 223 are connected. Then, the piston column 7 presses the candy filling material into the piston column suction hole 221, so that the candy filling material flows out from the discharge hole 223 and is poured into the molding mold through the bottom injection plate. The molding mold conveyor line moves the molding mold with the candy filling material poured into it to the bottom of the second material box 4 and the second rotary valve 6. Then, the second rotary valve 6, the second telescopic piston column group 8 and the second material box 4 are operated in the same way as above to pour the candy filling material onto the top surface of the candy filling material in the molding mold, thus completing the filling operation of the sandwich candy of this equipment.
