Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of sandwich pastry processing technology, and in particular to an automatic powder-sprinkling mechanism for sandwich pastry processing. Background Technology

[0002] The process of sprinkling powder on filled pastries is a traditional pastry-making technique. It mainly involves layering powder and filling to create a unique texture. This technique is commonly found in Chinese pastries such as rice cakes and osmanthus cakes, and it combines the characteristics of handcrafted skills with standardized production.

[0003] When performing powder spreading, an automatic powder spreading mechanism is required. Currently, existing powder spreading mechanisms typically use a flat screen plate for vibration or reciprocating sieving. However, when the internal moisture content of the powder is too high, clumping will occur. When the flat screen plate encounters lumpy powder, it will become clogged, which greatly reduces the uniformity of powder spreading. Utility Model Content

It is used to add powder to facilitate the rotation of the sieve cylinder 6. The top surface of the fixed box 5 is provided with a drive assembly, which consists of a servo motor 12, a drive wheel 13, a transmission belt 14, a transmission shaft 15, and a driven wheel 16. The servo motor 12 is fixedly connected to the top surface of the fixed box 5. The inner wall of the drive wheel 13 is fixedly connected to the output end of the servo motor 12. The transmission belt 14 meshes with the inner wall of the drive wheel 13. The transmission shaft 15 is fixedly connected to the back of the sieve cylinder 6. The inner wall of the driven wheel 16 is fixedly connected to the surface of the transmission shaft 15, and the inner wall of the driven wheel 16 meshes with the transmission belt 14. It is used to drive the rotation of the sieve cylinder 6, which improves the screening efficiency. A conveying mechanism is provided on the left side of the fixed platform 1, and a collection assembly is provided on the right side of the support column 2.

[0023] Specifically, the conveying mechanism consists of a fixed ring 17, a drive motor 18, a transmission roller 19, and a conveyor belt 20. The fixed ring 17 is fixedly connected to the left side of the fixed platform 1. The drive motor 18 is fixedly connected to the front of the fixed ring 17, and the output end of the drive motor 18 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the fixed ring 17. The transmission roller 19 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the fixed ring 17, and the transmission roller 19 is fixedly connected to the output end of the drive motor 18.

[0024] Specifically, the collection component consists of a collection box 21, a collection frame 22, and a feeding frame 23. The collection box 21 is fixedly connected to the right side of the support column 2, the collection frame 22 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the collection box 21, and the feeding frame 23 is fixedly connected to the left side of the collection box 21.

[0026] In use: First, arrange the pastries to be processed on the surface of the conveyor belt 20. Start the drive motor 18 to drive the transmission roller 19 to rotate along the inner wall of the fixed ring 17. Through the meshing of the transmission roller 19 and the conveyor belt 20, the pastries are moved to the right, and the powder is fed into the sieve cylinder 6 through the feed hopper 10 and the feed pipe 9. Start the servo motor 12 to drive the drive wheel 13 and the transmission belt 14 to rotate. Through the meshing of the transmission belt 14 and the driven wheel 16, the transmission shaft 15 and the sieve cylinder 6 are driven to rotate along the inner wall of the fixed box 5. Through the rotation of the sieve cylinder 6, and with the multiple through holes 7, the powder can be sieved and sprinkled. Through the rotation of the sieve cylinder 6, the powder can be separated from the through holes 7 by gravity during the rotation process to prevent blockage. After the powder is sprinkled, the pastries can be taken out. At the same time, through the sliding connection between the conveyor belt 20 and the feed frame 23, the excess powder can be sent into the collection box 21 and the collection frame 22 for automatic collection.

[0027] In summary, this automatic powder-sprinkling mechanism for sandwich pastry processing moves the pastry to the right via a conveyor mechanism, feeding the powder into the sieve cylinder 6 through a feeding mechanism. The drive assembly then rotates the sieve cylinder 6 along the inner wall of the fixed box 5. The rotation of the sieve cylinder 6, combined with multiple through holes 7, enables powder sprinkling while preventing clumped powder from clogging the through holes 7. Excess powder is automatically collected via a sliding connection between the conveyor mechanism and the collection assembly. This achieves the goal of convenient, anti-clogging powder sprinkling, avoiding the problem of uneven powder sprinkling caused by clumped powder clogging the flat mesh plate of existing powder sprinkling mechanisms. This significantly improves the powder sprinkling quality of pastries and solves the problems mentioned in the background art.
