Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of food processing equipment technology, specifically to a tableting device for producing compressed candy. Background Technology

[0002] Fruit-flavored candies are candies characterized primarily by their fruit flavor. They typically use flavors such as strawberry, orange, lemon, and grape as a base, infusing the aroma and taste of the fruit into the candy through specific formulas and processes. Tableting is a crucial step in candy production. By pressing the mixed candy ingredients into tablets, compressed candies are created. During operation, the raw materials are fed into the mold through a feeding device and, under the pressure of the tablet press, are compressed into candy tablets of a predetermined shape and size.

[0003] The existing technology still has some problems: traditional tableting equipment mostly adopts fixed station operation, and manual steps are required to complete the feeding, tableting, dust removal and discharge processes. The integration and automation level is low, resulting in low production efficiency.

[0004] The information disclosed in this background section is intended only to enhance the understanding of the overall background of this utility model and should not be construed as an admission or in any way implying that the information constitutes prior art known to those skilled in the art. Utility Model Content

[0005] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to overcome the above-mentioned defects and provide a tableting device for the production of compressed candy.

The grooved wheel has several grooves, and the lower end of the rotating rod is fixedly connected to a convex shaft that cooperates with the grooves.

[0008] As an improvement, a base is provided below the rotating disk, and a rotating shaft is fixedly connected to the lower end of the rotating disk, with the lower end of the rotating shaft rotatably connected to the middle of the base.

The lower end of the dust collection section is fixedly connected to a collection section. A discharge bucket with an opening at the top is provided below the through groove on one side. The collection section and the discharge bucket are both fixedly connected to the upper end of the base.

[0010] As an improvement, the rotating disk has cavities at the front, back, and sides, the through groove passes through the cavity, the baffle slides in the cavity, and the baffle is connected to the near ends of the front, back, and side cavities by a telescopic cylinder.

[0011] As an improvement, the grooved wheel is fixedly connected to the lower part of the rotating shaft. The grooved wheel has concave surfaces at the front, back, and sides. The chute is located between adjacent concave surfaces. A semi-circular disk is provided behind the rotating shaft. The semi-circular disk abuts against the concave surface.

[0019] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0020] Combined with appendix Figures 1-3 This utility model discloses a tableting device for producing compressed candy, comprising: a rotating disk 1, several baffles 6, and a driving structure. A base 11 is provided below the rotating disk 1. A rotating shaft 12 is fixedly connected to the lower end of the rotating disk 1, and the lower end of the rotating shaft 12 is rotatably connected to the middle of the base 11. The driving structure includes a grooved wheel 7 and a rotating rod 8. Several grooves 9 are formed on the grooved wheel 7. A convex shaft 10 that mates with the grooves 9 is fixedly connected to the lower end of the rotating rod 8. The grooved wheel 7 is fixedly connected to the lower part of the rotating shaft 12. Concave surfaces 20 are formed on the front, back, and sides of the grooved wheel 7. The grooves 9 are located between adjacent concave surfaces 20. A semi-circular disk 21 is provided behind the rotating shaft 12, and the semi-circular disk 21 abuts against the concave surface 20. The rotating rod 8 is located away from the convex shaft 10. One end is fixedly connected to the upper part of the middle of the semi-circular disk 21. The convex shaft 10 is located in the notch of the semi-circular disk 21. The upper end of the base 11 is fixedly connected to the motor 22. The output shaft of the motor 22 is fixedly connected to the middle of the semi-circular disk 21. The motor 22 drives the rotating rod 8 to rotate. During the rotation process, the convex shaft 10 enters from the edge of a certain groove 9 and abuts against the inner wall of the groove 9, driving the groove 9 to rotate, causing the groove wheel 7 to rotate. When the semi-circular disk 21 abuts against the next concave surface 20, the rotating disk 1 is driven to rotate through the rotating shaft 12, rotating 90° intermittently each time.

[0021] Then, the rotating disk 1 has through slots 2 on the front, back and sides. A feeding part 3 is provided above the front slot 2. A tableting rod 4 is provided above the side slots 2. A dust collection part 5 is provided above the rear slot 2. The feeding part 3 is connected to additional raw materials through a connecting pipe. A moving plate 13 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the side tableting rods 4. A telescopic cylinder 14 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the moving plate 13. Guide rods 15 are slidably connected to both sides of the moving plate 13. The upper ends of the telescopic cylinder 14 and the guide rods 15 are fixed to additional support parts. A collection part 16 is fixedly connected to the lower end of the dust collection part 5. A discharge bucket 17 with an open top is provided below one side slot 2. The collection part 16 and the discharge bucket 17 are fixedly connected to the upper end of the base 11.

[0022] To facilitate material discharge, the baffle 6 is fitted with the through groove 2. The rotating disk 1 has cavities 18 at the front, back and sides. The through groove 2 passes through the cavity 18, and the baffle 6 slides in the cavity 18. The baffle 6 is connected to the front, back and side cavities 18 by a telescopic cylinder 19.

[0023] The feeding section 3 pours the candy raw materials into the front channel 2. The channel wheel 7 rotates 90° clockwise, and the front channel 2 rotates to a position below the pressing rod 4 on the side away from the feeding hopper 17. The telescopic cylinder 14 extends downward, and the moving plate 13 moves stably under the guidance of the guide rod 15. The pressing rod 4 presses the material in the channel 2 into candy tablets. The channel wheel 7 continues to rotate 90° clockwise, rotating the channel 2 to a position below the dust collection section 5, absorbing the crumbs generated during tablet pressing into the collection section 16. Continue rotating clockwise 90°, the through groove 2 rotates to the side of the pressing rod 4 near the feeding hopper 17. During the pressing step, the pressing rods 4 on both sides move down at the same time, aligning with the through grooves 2 on both sides, and pressing and discharging are performed respectively. Then the telescopic cylinder 19 retracts, and the baffle 6 is pulled into the cavity 18 so that it does not block the through groove 2. The pressed tablet falls into the feeding hopper 17. Then the groove wheel 7 continues to rotate clockwise 90° to repeat the feeding step. The four steps can be performed synchronously in a cycle.

[0024] It should be noted that all electrical components mentioned in this article are connected to an external main controller and 220V AC mains power. The main controller can be a conventional known device such as a computer. The specific implementation of this disclosure omits detailed descriptions of known functions and components. To ensure device compatibility, the operating methods used are consistent with the parameters of commercially available instruments.

[0025] The present invention and its embodiments have been described above. This description is not restrictive, and the accompanying drawings are only one embodiment of the present invention; the actual structure is not limited thereto. In conclusion, if those skilled in the art are inspired by this description and design similar structures and embodiments without departing from the inventive spirit of the present invention, such designs should fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
