[0052] In this utility model, the rotation of the handwheel 320 adjusts the position of the threaded rod 32 in the threaded hole 300 on the U-shaped frame 30. When the threaded rod 32 rises, the distance between the bottom of the pressing roller 310 and the conveyor belt 15 increases, and the thickness of the tofu skin increases. When the threaded rod 32 falls, the distance between the bottom of the pressing roller 310 and the conveyor belt 15 shortens, and the thickness of the tofu skin decreases.

[0053] In this embodiment of the automatic tofu skin slicing machine, when in use, firstly, the support roller 11, the rotating roller 10 and the conveyor table 1 are rotatably connected. The conveyor belt 15 is sleeved on the two rotating rollers 10. The motor 100 is fixed on the outer wall of the conveyor table 1, and the output shaft is coaxially connected to the rotating roller 10 through a coupling. Then, the movable plate 31 with the pressing roller 310 is threadedly connected to the screw hole 300 on the U-shaped frame 30 through the threaded rod 32. The handwheel 320 is fixedly connected to the threaded rod 32 through screws. The horizontal pipe 210 with the nozzle 211 is connected to the infusion pipe 21 with the butterfly valve 212.

Then, the first mesh roller 41 with the mesh wrapped around it is inserted into the first slot 40 and the second mesh roller 51 with the mesh wrapped around it is inserted into the second slot 50.

[0054] When the tofu skin needs to be poured, the motor 100 starts the control switch, the output shaft rotates and drives the roller 10 to rotate, the conveyor belt 15 rotates continuously, and then the mesh on the second mesh roller 51 is laid flat on the conveyor belt 15. When the end of the mesh is conveyed to the bottom of the receiving plate 201, the butterfly valve 212 opens, and the soy milk is evenly sprayed from the corresponding nozzle 211 onto the receiving plate 201. The discharged soy milk is laid on the bottom mesh, and then the mesh on the first mesh roller 41 is laid on top of the tofu skin. Depending on the required thickness of the tofu skin, the distance between the bottom of the baffle 22 and the end of the receiving plate 201 is adjusted. A larger distance results in a larger discharge volume at the end of the receiving plate 201 and a thicker tofu skin. Then, the hand is turned... Adjust the movable plate 31 to rise using wheel 320, press the pressure roller 310 to compact the tofu skin. When the thickness is large, the discharge volume at the end of the receiving plate 201 is small due to the small distance between them. Then, rotate the handwheel 320 to adjust the movable plate 31 to fall, press the pressure roller 310 to compact the tofu skin. When the thickness is small, the motor 100 starts and continuously conveys the wrapped tofu skin after automatic pouring. The conveyor belt 15 has a grid structure.
