Description

Technical Field

[0001] The embodiments disclosed herein relate to the technical field of biscuit processing equipment, specifically to a biscuit forming machine for producing grape-filled biscuits. Background Technology

[0002] In the food processing industry, grape-filled biscuits are beloved by consumers for their unique taste and rich nutrition. However, traditional grape-filled biscuit production technology has significant shortcomings, especially in the shaping process of the biscuit and filling, which severely restricts production efficiency and corporate profits.

[0003] Currently, most companies use a sandwich cookie forming process that relies on multiple independent steps. Typically, two separate cookie blanks are made, baked, and cooled before the grape filling is added through spreading and filling methods. Finally, they are pressed together to set the shape. The entire process is lengthy and complex. Each step requires independent equipment and operators, as well as a temporary storage area for semi-finished products, significantly extending the production cycle and increasing labor and material costs. Furthermore, time differences can easily occur between the multiple steps, and the cookie blanks, exposed to air for extended periods, may become damp and soft, affecting the final product's taste and quality.

[0004] Furthermore, the traditional molding equipment is scattered, occupying a large amount of workshop space and increasing the company's site costs. At the same time, frequent material transfer between equipment can easily cause contamination and increase food safety risks. With the continuous growth in market demand for grape-filled biscuits, this inefficient and high-consumption production model can no longer meet the needs of large-scale, standardized production.

[0005] Therefore, developing a grape-filled biscuit forming machine that can integrate multi-layer biscuit and sandwich forming processes, shorten the production process, improve production efficiency, and reduce space occupation has become an urgent need for food processing enterprises to enhance their competitiveness and achieve cost reduction and efficiency improvement. It is of great significance to promoting the intelligent and intensive development of the food industry. Utility Model Content

[0006] To overcome the above-mentioned defects, the embodiments of this disclosure provide a biscuit forming machine for producing grape-filled biscuits, which solves the technical problem that traditional forming equipment in the prior art is scattered in layout, occupies a lot of workshop space, and increases the site cost of enterprises.

[0007] According to one aspect, at least one embodiment of this disclosure provides a biscuit forming machine for producing grape-filled biscuits, comprising:

[0008] The equipment frame and the mold conveyor belt, wherein the mold conveyor belt is installed inside the equipment frame;

[0009] A biscuit feeding assembly is disposed inside the equipment rack;

[0010] A sandwich feeding assembly, wherein the sandwich feeding assembly is mounted on the equipment frame;

[0011] A discharge conveying assembly is disposed inside the equipment frame;

[0012] The biscuit feeding assembly includes a pair of cavity plates, both of which are fixed inside the equipment frame. Several feeding racks are provided on the surface of the cavity plates, and a discharge port is provided at the bottom of the cavity plates. A pair of crossbars are provided inside the equipment frame, and telescopic cylinders are installed horizontally on each crossbar. A pusher is provided at the output end of the telescopic cylinder, and the pusher is movably fitted inside the side surface of the cavity plates.

[0013] As a further technical solution, the sandwich feeding assembly includes a second cylinder, the output end of the second cylinder is connected to a feeding pipe, a spiral pusher is provided inside the feeding pipe, and a vertical discharge pipe is provided at one end of the feeding pipe.

[0014] As a further technical solution, a disperser is provided at the lower end of the vertical feeding pipe, and a plurality of extrusion holes are provided at the bottom of the disperser. An extrusion cylinder is provided at the upper end of the vertical feeding pipe, and an extrusion core is provided at the output end of the extrusion cylinder.

[0015] As a further technical solution, the discharge conveying assembly includes a discharge conveyor belt, which is disposed inside the equipment frame. A lower pressure roller is rotatably connected inside the equipment frame, and a pressure wheel is disposed on the surface of the lower pressure roller.

[0016] As a further technical solution, the spacing between adjacent pressure rollers corresponds to the discharge position of the mold conveyor belt.

[0017] As a further technical solution, the two rotating shafts of the discharge conveyor belt are at different heights, and the lower end face of the pressure roller is at the same plane height as the upper end face of the lower rotating shaft of the discharge conveyor belt.

[0018] As a further technical solution, both the vertical feed tube and the lower end of the extrusion core are arc-shaped converging structures.

[0019] As a further technical solution, both sides of the feed rack have an open structure.

[0020] The beneficial effects of the embodiments disclosed herein are as follows:

[0021] 1. In this disclosure, the biscuit feeding assembly realizes the orderly feeding of biscuits through a telescopic cylinder and a pusher. The telescopic cylinder drives the pusher to slide on the side surface of the cavity plate, pushing the biscuits one by one to the feeding port to avoid accumulation and blockage. The two cavity plates respectively complete the feeding of the upper and lower layers of biscuits, ensuring the accuracy of the feeding quantity and position, providing stable materials for subsequent processes, and improving feeding efficiency and accuracy.

[0022] 2. In this disclosure, the sandwich feeding assembly uses a spiral pusher and an extrusion core to achieve precise sandwich extrusion. The spiral pusher evenly delivers the filling to the vertical feeding pipe, and the extrusion cylinder drives the extrusion core to extrude. The filling is evenly extruded through the extrusion hole of the disperser. The converging structure of the vertical feeding pipe and the extrusion core squeezes out the air, ensuring that the sandwich thickness is consistent and improving the quality stability of the biscuits.

[0023] 3. In this disclosure, the discharge conveying assembly achieves efficient conveying and compaction of biscuits through pressure rollers and discharge conveyor belts. The pressure rollers apply pressure to the formed biscuits, making the upper and lower layers and the filling fit tightly together, avoiding separation during transportation. The inclined design of the discharge conveyor belt facilitates the receipt of biscuits and rapid horizontal conveying. The elastic pressure rollers prevent damage to the biscuits, reduce the transportation damage rate, and improve production efficiency. Attached Figure Description

[0032] The present disclosure will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the present disclosure and are not intended to limit the scope of the disclosure.

[0033] To keep the drawings concise, each drawing only schematically shows the parts relevant to the disclosure; these do not represent the actual structure of the product. Furthermore, for ease of understanding, in some drawings, only one of components with the same structure or function is schematically shown, or only one is labeled. In this document, "one" not only means "only one," but can also mean "more than one," and "several" includes "two" and "more than two."

[0034] In this document, it should be noted that, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," and "linkage" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to fixed connections, detachable connections, or integral connections; they can refer to mechanical connections or electrical connections; they can refer to direct connections or indirect connections through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal connection between two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this disclosure based on the specific circumstances.

[0035] In this disclosure, unless otherwise expressly specified and limited, "above" or "below" the second feature can include direct contact between the first and second features, or contact between the first and second features through another feature between them.

[0038] like Figures 1-6 As shown, a biscuit forming machine for producing grape-filled biscuits according to an embodiment of the present disclosure is illustrated, comprising:

[0039] The equipment frame 1 and the mold conveyor belt 2 are installed inside the equipment frame 1;

[0040] Biscuit feeding assembly 3, wherein the biscuit feeding assembly 3 is disposed inside the equipment frame 1;

[0041] A sandwich feeding assembly 4 is mounted on the equipment frame 1;

[0042] The discharge conveying assembly 5 is disposed inside the equipment frame 1;

[0043] The biscuit feeding assembly 3 includes a pair of cavity plates 3-1, both of which are fixed inside the equipment frame 1. Several feeding racks 3-2 are provided on the surface of the cavity plates 3-1. A discharge port 3-3 is provided at the bottom of the cavity plates 3-1. A pair of crossbars 3-4 are provided inside the equipment frame 1. A telescopic cylinder 3-5 is horizontally installed on each of the crossbars 3-4. A pusher 3-6 is provided at the output end of the telescopic cylinder 3-5. The pusher 3-6 is movably fitted inside the side surface of the cavity plates 3-1.

[0044] In some examples, a biscuit feeding assembly 3 is designed to achieve orderly biscuit feeding. A pair of hollow plates 3-1 serve as carriers for temporary storage and conveying of materials. The feeding racks 3-2 on the surface can store biscuits in batches, and the feeding port 3-3 at the bottom precisely controls the falling path of the biscuits. The telescopic cylinder 3-5 on the crossbar 3-4 inside the equipment frame 1 drives the pusher 3-6 to slide along the side surface of the hollow plates 3-1. Each time it extends, the pusher 3-6 pushes the biscuits in the hollow plates 3-1 one by one to the feeding port 3-3, so that they fall sequentially. By repeating the feeding action of the two hollow plates 3-1, the feeding process of the upper and lower sides of the biscuits can be completed separately. This push-type feeding method avoids biscuit accumulation and blockage, ensures the accuracy of the number and position of the biscuits falling each time, and provides a stable material base for subsequent filling and shaping. Compared with traditional manual feeding or disordered feeding, it significantly improves the efficiency and accuracy of biscuit feeding.

[0045] like Figures 1-6 As shown in the figure, the sandwich feeding assembly 4 proposed in this embodiment includes a second cylinder 4-1, the output end of the second cylinder 4-1 is connected to a feeding pipe 4-2, a spiral pusher 4-3 is provided in the feeding pipe 4-2, a vertical feeding pipe 4-4 is provided at one end of the feeding pipe 4-2, a disperser 4-5 is provided at the lower end of the vertical feeding pipe 4-4, a plurality of extrusion holes 4-6 are opened at the bottom of the disperser 4-5, an extrusion cylinder 4-7 is provided at the upper end of the vertical feeding pipe 4-4, and an extrusion core 4-8 is provided at the output end of the extrusion cylinder 4-7.

[0046] In some examples, a filling feeding assembly 4 is designed to achieve stable extrusion of the biscuit filling. A second cylinder 4-1 pushes the feeding pipe 4-2 to a designated position. The spiral pusher 4-3 inside the pipe, driven by a motor, evenly delivers the grape filling to the vertical discharge pipe 4-4. The extrusion cylinder 4-7 at the upper end of the vertical discharge pipe 4-4 drives the extrusion core 4-8 to press downwards. The filling is extruded through several extrusion holes 4-6 at the bottom of the disperser 4-5 at a uniform flow rate, forming a stable filling layer. The special structure of the disperser 4-5 allows for more uniform dispersion of the filling, avoiding uneven filling thickness. This assembly, through the coordinated work of the cylinder and the spiral pusher 4-3, achieves precise metering and stable extrusion of the filling. Whether the filling is thick like jam or semi-solid, it ensures consistent filling effect, effectively improving the quality stability of the grape-filled biscuit.

[0047] like Figures 1-6 As shown in the figure, the discharge conveying assembly 5 in this embodiment includes a discharge conveyor belt 5-1, which is disposed inside the equipment frame 1. A lower pressure roller 5-2 is rotatably connected inside the equipment frame 1, and a pressure wheel 5-3 is disposed on the surface of the lower pressure roller 5-2.

[0048] In some examples, a discharge conveyor assembly 5 is designed to achieve efficient transport of shaped cookies. The discharge conveyor belt 5-1 operates at a stable speed, catching shaped cookies falling from above. The pressure rollers 5-3 on the surface of the lower pressure roller 5-2, rotatably connected within the equipment frame 1, apply appropriate pressure to the freshly shaped cookies, ensuring a tighter fit between the upper and lower cookie layers and the filling layer, preventing delamination during transport. The pressure rollers 5-3 are made of elastic material, avoiding damage to the cookie surface while applying pressure. The discharge conveyor belt 5-1 rapidly transports the compacted shaped cookies outwards, connecting to subsequent packaging processes, making the entire process continuous and efficient. This assembly not only ensures the complete transport of shaped cookies but also further improves product quality through the secondary compaction of the lower pressure roller 5-2. Compared to traditional conveying methods, it reduces the damage rate of cookies during transport and improves production efficiency.

[0049] For example, such as Figure 1 As shown, the spacing between adjacent pressure rollers 5-3 corresponds to the discharge position of the mold conveyor belt 2.

[0050] In some examples, the corresponding positions ensure that the pressure roller 5-3 presses down on the discharge conveyor belt 5-1 while avoiding the movement path of the biscuit.

[0051] For example, such as Figure 5 As shown, the two rotating shafts of the discharge conveyor belt 5-1 are at different heights, and the lower end face of the pressure roller 5-3 is at the same plane height as the upper end face of the lower rotating shaft of the discharge conveyor belt 5-1.

[0052] In some examples, by using a high and a low angle, one end of the discharge conveyor belt 5-1 is tilted to facilitate the reception of biscuits falling at an angle and to quickly return to a horizontal state for continued conveying.

[0053] For example, such as Figure 3 As shown, the lower ends of the vertical feed tube 4-4 and the extrusion core 4-8 are both arc-shaped converging structures.

[0054] In some examples, the constriction structure allows air to be extruded during extrusion without affecting the uniformity of the output.

[0055] For example, such as Figure 2 As shown, both sides of the feed rack 3-2 have an open structure.

[0056] In some examples, the number of cookies inside can be directly observed through the open structure, making it easier to control the feeding equipment to quickly distribute the cookie.

[0057] In actual use: After fixing the equipment frame 1, install the mold conveyor belt 2 inside the equipment frame 1. Install the biscuit feeding assembly 3 inside the equipment frame 1. Fix a pair of cavity plates 3-1 inside the equipment frame 1. The surface of the cavity plates 3-1 is equipped with a feeding rack 3-2, and the bottom has a discharge port 3-3. Install a telescopic cylinder 3-5 on the crossbar 3-4. The output end is connected to a pusher rack 3-6. Install the sandwich feeding assembly 4 on the equipment frame 1. The second cylinder 4-1 is connected to the feeding pipe 4-2. The pipe is equipped with a spiral pusher 4-3. One end is connected to a vertical discharge pipe 4-4. The lower end is equipped with a disperser 4-5. The upper end is equipped with an extrusion cylinder 4-7 and an extrusion core 4-8. The equipment frame 1 is equipped with a discharge conveyor assembly 5, including a discharge conveyor belt 5-1 and a lower pressure roller 5-2. The surface of the lower pressure roller 5-2 is equipped with a pressure roller 5-3. When in use, the mold conveyor belt 2 is running, the biscuit is put into the feeding rack 3-2, the telescopic cylinder 3-5 drives the pusher rack 3-6 to push the biscuit from the discharge port 3-3 to the mold, the spiral pusher 4-3 sends the filling to the vertical discharge pipe 4-4, the extrusion cylinder 4-7 drives the extrusion core 4-8 to extrude the filling from the extrusion hole 4-6 of the disperser 4-5 onto the biscuit, another layer of biscuit covers it, the mold conveyor belt 2 sends the biscuit to the discharge conveyor belt 5-1, and the discharge conveyor belt 5-1 sends out the shaped biscuit.
