Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of pressing technology for tofu processing, and in particular relates to a pressing device for tofu processing. Background Technology

[0002] According to the published patent CN206238257U, a tofu pressing device includes a worktable, an upper pressure plate, a first lever, and a second lever. An oil pump is fixedly installed on the upper end of the upper pressure plate, and the oil pump is connected to a hydraulic cylinder. A piston rod is provided in the inner cavity of the hydraulic cylinder. Utilizing the lever principle, based on the linear relationship between the pressure at the lever's point of application and the lever arm, a pressure difference is created in different parts of the pressing plate. Different pressures will produce tofu with different textures and toughness. Utilizing the lever principle, the pressure can also be amplified, and the upper and lower pressing plates can exert force simultaneously, improving the pressing production efficiency. However, the following shortcomings still exist:

[0003] The aforementioned equipment has the problem that the pressure applied to the tofu through the lever principle is relatively unstable. The unstable pressure may affect the texture of the formed tofu and is insufficient to ensure that the pressed tofu is neat and aesthetically pleasing. Therefore, we propose a pressing device for tofu processing. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a pressing device for processing dried tofu. The pressure applied to the tofu by lever principle is relatively unstable. The unstable pressure may affect the taste of the formed dried tofu and is insufficient to ensure that the pressed dried tofu is neat and beautiful enough.

[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model is achieved through the following technical solution:

[0006] This utility model is a pressing device for processing dried tofu, including a support plate, a support leg fixedly connected to the bottom outer wall of the support plate, and a pressing mechanism provided on the top outer wall of the support plate.

[0007] The pressing mechanism includes a fixed base, the bottom outer wall of which is fixedly connected to the top outer wall of a support plate. A motor frame is fixedly connected to the top outer wall of the fixed base, and a motor is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the motor frame. A worm gear is fixedly connected to the bottom output shaft of the motor via a coupling. Several rotating rod seats are fixedly connected to the bottom outer wall of the fixed base. A rotating rod is rotatably connected to the inner wall of each of the rotating rod seats. A worm wheel is fixedly connected to the outer wall of each rotating rod. The outer walls of the worm wheels mesh with the outer walls of the worm gear. Several coupling rods are fixedly connected to the outer wall of the rotating rod.

[0008] Furthermore, each of the coupling rods has a groove on its inner wall, a connecting block is slidably connected to the inner wall of each groove, and a pressing plate is fixedly connected to the bottom outer wall of each connecting block.

[0009] Furthermore, the inner wall of the support plate is provided with a drainage mechanism, which includes a forming mold, the outer wall of which is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the support plate.

[0010] Furthermore, the inner wall of the molding die is provided with an installation groove, and a drain plate is slidably connected to the inner wall of the installation groove. A limit block is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the drain plate.

[0011] Furthermore, the inner wall of the limiting block is provided with a limiting groove, and the outer wall of the forming mold is fixedly connected with a pin seat, the inner wall of the pin seat is provided with a pin groove.

[0012] Furthermore, a fixing pin is slidably connected to the inner wall of the pin groove, and the outer wall of the fixing pin is slidably connected to the inner wall of the limiting groove.

[0013] Furthermore, a push button is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the fixing pin, and a spring is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the fixing pin. The outer wall of the spring is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the pin groove.

[0014] Furthermore, a valve pipe is fixedly connected to the bottom outer wall of the molding die, a water-blocking ball is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the valve pipe, and a knob is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the water-blocking ball.

[0015] This utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0016] 1. This utility model, by setting up a pressing plate, uses a motor to drive a worm gear to rotate, which in turn drives several worm wheels to rotate. These worm wheels, in turn, drive a rotating rod to rotate, which in turn drives one end of several coupling rods to rotate. These coupling rods, in turn, drive a connecting block to move downwards, which in turn drives the pressing plate to move downwards and squeeze the tofu in the forming mold. This achieves comprehensive and uniform pressure on the tofu, ensuring that the pressed tofu is sufficiently regular and aesthetically pleasing.

[0017] 2. This utility model features a fixing pin. Pushing the push button upwards will displace the fixing pin, causing it to detach from the limiting groove and compress the spring. Once detached, the drain plate can be directly pulled out of the mounting groove for cleaning. To drain water from the molding mold, the knob can be turned clockwise, causing the water-blocking ball to rotate. This separates the water produced during pressing from the tofu, preventing the tofu from remaining in contact with residual moisture and affecting the taste and quality of the finished tofu.
