[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of chocolate pouring machines, specifically to a filling nozzle for a chocolate pouring machine. Background Technology
[0002] A chocolate pouring machine is a piece of equipment specifically designed for the automated production of chocolate products. By precisely controlling the temperature, flow rate, and pouring timing of the chocolate syrup, liquid chocolate is injected into molds to form finished products of specific shapes.
[0003] Existing patent application number: 201710005072.9 A chocolate pouring device includes a control cabinet, a base frame, a conveying unit, a chocolate mold, a drive unit, a material conveying unit, a material conveying hose, a heat preservation system, a moving plate, and a pouring head. The material conveying unit is fixed to the upper part of the base frame. The outlet at the bottom of the material conveying unit outputs chocolate raw materials through the material conveying hose to the pouring head. The pouring head is mounted on the moving plate and moves spatially together with the moving plate driven by the drive unit controlled by the control cabinet. The desired chocolate pattern is poured onto the chocolate mold transported by the conveying unit. The heat preservation system controls the temperature to keep the conveyed chocolate raw materials in a fluid state.
[0004] The aforementioned patent describes a chocolate pouring machine. In practical applications, after the chocolate pouring machine injects the slurry, the residual material in its pouring nozzle is prone to dripping onto the work surface when changing the mold. The pouring nozzle lacks leak-proof measures, which easily causes slurry to drip and pollute the working environment. The cleaning operation is relatively frequent, which is inconvenient to use. Therefore, we propose a sandwich pouring nozzle for a chocolate pouring machine to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a filling nozzle for a chocolate pouring machine to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model adopts the following technical solution: a filling nozzle for a chocolate casting machine, comprising a machine base, a casting machine body, a casting chamber, a filling nozzle, and an anti-drip device. The casting machine body is mounted on the top of the machine base. A casting chamber is formed in the lower front part of the casting machine body. Filling nozzles are arranged on the top surface of the casting chamber. An anti-drip device is provided below the filling nozzles. The anti-drip device includes a transmission frame, a telescopic push rod, a bracket, a transmission support, a tray, and a quick-assembly structure. The bottom of the left and right side walls of the casting chamber is slidably connected to the transmission frame via guide rails. A telescopic push rod is mounted at the rear of the casting chamber. The front end of the telescopic push rod is screwed to the transmission frame. The middle of the left and right side walls of the casting chamber is slidably connected to the bracket via guide rails. Transmission supports are connected to the bottom of the left and right sides of the bracket. The bottom end of the transmission support is fixedly connected to the transmission frame. A tray is mounted on the top of the bracket, located below the filling nozzle. A quick-assembly structure is provided at the bottom of the tray.
[0007] Preferably, the tray is matched to the length of the pouring chamber.
[0008] Preferably, the bottom inner surface of the tray is provided with a partition.
[0009] Preferably, the telescopic push rod is a hydraulic spring rod.
[0010] Preferably, the quick assembly structure includes a placement groove, a plug-in groove, and a plug-in rail. The placement groove is provided on the top front surface of the bracket, and the tray is placed inside the placement groove. A plug-in groove is horizontally provided at the front of the placement groove, and the plug-in groove extends longitudinally to the bottom of the bracket. A plug-in rail is screwed to the bottom of the tray. The plug-in rail is inverted T-shaped and is movably plugged into the inside of the plug-in groove.
[0011] Preferably, the rear wall of the placement groove is provided with at least two sets of first magnetic attraction points, and the rear wall of the tray is provided with second magnetic attraction points. The number of second magnetic attraction points is the same as that of the first magnetic attraction points and their positions are corresponding. The second magnetic attraction points can be magnetically attracted to the surface of the first magnetic attraction points.
[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0013] This invention incorporates an anti-drip device below the pouring nozzle. When the chocolate mold is placed inside the pouring chamber, it pushes the transmission frame backward into the depth of the pouring chamber, causing the telescopic push rod to retract under force. Simultaneously, the transmission frame, through the transmission bracket, moves the support backward, removing the tray from below the pouring nozzle without affecting its normal operation. After pouring, the user removes the chocolate mold. At this point, the telescopic push rod, through its elasticity, drives the transmission frame forward to reset, which in turn moves the support forward synchronously. This immediately moves the tray below the pouring nozzle to catch any dripping slurry, preventing residual slurry from contaminating the machine and effectively preventing leaks.
[0014] This utility model features a quick assembly structure at the bottom of the tray. During disassembly, the tray can be slid forward along the insertion slot to move it out of the placement slot, thus completing the disassembly of the tray. This makes disassembly and cleaning convenient and facilitates the implementation of logistics and maintenance work. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation
[0021] To further explain the technical solution of this utility model, a detailed description is provided below through specific embodiments.
[0022] Please see Figure 1 This utility model provides a filling nozzle for a chocolate pouring machine, including a machine base 1, a pouring machine body 2, a pouring chamber 3, a pouring nozzle 4, and an anti-drip device 5. The pouring machine body 2 is installed on the top of the machine base 1. The pouring chamber 3 is opened in the lower front part of the pouring machine body 2. The pouring nozzles 4 are arranged on the top surface of the pouring chamber 3. The anti-drip device 5 is provided below the pouring nozzles 4.
[0023] Specifically, when using it, place the chocolate mold inside the pouring chamber 3, then start the pouring machine body 2 to control the pouring nozzle 4 to pour the chocolate paste into the mold, thus completing the pouring action.
[0024] Please see Figure 2-4This utility model provides a filling nozzle for a chocolate pouring machine. The anti-drip device 5 includes a transmission frame 51, a telescopic push rod 52, a bracket 53, a transmission support 54, a tray 55, and a quick assembly structure 56. The bottom of the left and right side walls of the pouring chamber 3 is slidably connected to the transmission frame 51 by guide rails. The telescopic push rod 52 is installed at the rear of the pouring chamber 3. The front end of the telescopic rod of the telescopic push rod 52 is screwed to the transmission frame 51. The telescopic push rod 52 controls the transmission frame 51 to move forward and reset. The middle of the left and right side walls of the pouring chamber 3 is slidably connected to the bracket 53 by guide rails. The bottom of the left and right sides of the bracket 53 is connected to the transmission support 54. The bottom end of the transmission support 54 is connected and fixed to the transmission frame 51, so that the transmission frame 51 and the bracket 53 establish synchronous transmission. The tray 55 is installed on the top of the bracket 53. The tray 55 is located below the pouring nozzle 4. The bottom of the tray 55 is provided with a quick assembly structure 56.
[0025] Specifically, by installing an anti-drip device 5 below the pouring nozzle 4, when the chocolate mold is placed inside the pouring chamber 3, the chocolate mold pushes the transmission frame 51 backward into the depth of the pouring chamber 3, causing the telescopic push rod 52 to retract under force. At the same time, the transmission frame 51 drives the bracket 53 to move backward synchronously through the transmission support 54, so that the tray 55 on the bracket 53 is removed from below the pouring nozzle 4, without affecting the normal operation of the pouring nozzle 4. After pouring is completed, the user removes the chocolate mold. At this time, the telescopic push rod 52 drives the transmission frame 51 to move forward and reset through its own elasticity, thereby driving the bracket 53 to move forward synchronously, so that the tray 55 is immediately moved to below the pouring nozzle 4 to receive the dripping slurry, avoiding residual slurry from contaminating the machine 1, and effectively playing a leak-proof role.
[0026] In this case, the length of the tray 55 is matched with that of the pouring chamber 3, ensuring that the size of the tray 55 can cover the discharge range of the pouring nozzle 4, so that the tray 55 can effectively receive the slurry dripping from the pouring nozzle 4. Furthermore, a partition is provided on the bottom inner side of the tray 55 to prevent the slurry collected inside the tray 55 from accumulating on one side and overflowing.
[0027] The telescopic push rod 52 is a hydraulic spring rod, which has a certain sliding damping to control the sliding speed of the tray 55 and prevent excessive movement force from causing the internal slurry to overflow.
[0028] Please see Figure 5 This utility model provides a filling nozzle for a chocolate pouring machine. The quick assembly structure 56 includes a placement groove 561, a plug-in groove 562, and a plug-in rail 563. The placement groove 561 is provided on the top front surface of the bracket 53. The tray 55 is placed inside the placement groove 561. The plug-in groove 562 is horizontally provided at the front of the placement groove 561. The plug-in groove 562 extends longitudinally to the bottom of the bracket 53. The plug-in rail 563 is screwed to the bottom of the tray 55. The plug-in rail 563 is inverted T-shaped and is movably plugged into the inside of the plug-in groove 562.
[0029] Specifically, by setting a quick assembly structure 56 at the bottom of the tray 55, during disassembly, the tray 55 can be directly slid forward along the insertion groove 562 to move out of the placement groove 561, which can complete the disassembly of the tray 55. This makes disassembly and cleaning convenient and facilitates the development of logistics and maintenance work.
[0030] To further explain, the rear wall of the mounting groove 561 is fitted with at least two sets of first magnetic attraction points 564, and the rear wall of the tray 55 is fitted with second magnetic attraction points 565. The number of second magnetic attraction points 565 is the same as that of the first magnetic attraction points 564, and their positions are corresponding. The second magnetic attraction points 565 can be magnetically attracted to the surface of the first magnetic attraction points 564, thereby magnetically attracting the tray 55 and the bracket 53 together, further improving the installation firmness.
[0031] Specifically, when installing the tray 55, slide the insertion rail 563 along the insertion slot 562 to insert the tray 55 completely into the placement slot 561. At this time, the second magnetic attraction point 565 and the first magnetic attraction point 564 adhere and attract each other to attract and fix the tray 55 and the bracket 53 together, thus completing the assembly of the tray 55 and the bracket 53. The operation is quick and convenient.
[0032] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features.
