[0002] As a traditional seasonal food, the large-scale production of mooncakes places higher demands on the precision and reliability of molding equipment. In industrial production, the molding and demolding process directly determines the product's appearance integrity and production efficiency. Currently, the mechanical stamping molding machines commonly used in the industry mostly employ a unidirectional ejection structure, which has the following technical defects in actual production: an adsorption effect easily occurs between the inner wall of the traditional mold and the mooncake dough; during unidirectional ejection, localized stress concentration can easily lead to tearing of the dough's edges. Especially with high-oil-content fillings and molds with complex patterns, the demolding breakage rate is generally as high as 5-8%, resulting in poor demolding and easy deformation of the demolded mooncakes. Utility Model Content

Detailed Implementation

[0018] 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.

[0019] Please see Figures 1-5In this embodiment of the utility model, a reciprocating ejector mooncake forming machine for improving demolding effect includes a worktable 10, a drive mechanism 20, a forming mechanism 30, and a mold 40. A support frame 11 is installed at the bottom of the worktable 10, and two side plates 13 are provided on both sides of the worktable 10. The forming mechanism 30 is stacked on the mold 40, which contains mooncake raw materials. A screw sleeve 42 is provided on the side of the mold 40, and the screw sleeve 42 is slidably connected to the worktable 10. An adjusting screw 41, which drives the screw sleeve 42 to slide along the worktable 10, is rotatably installed between the two side plates 13 on the worktable 10. A discharge port 14 is opened on one side of the worktable 10 for discharging the formed mooncakes. The forming mechanism 30 includes a lower housing 31, an upper housing 32, and a push rod 35 slidably installed inside the upper housing 32. An extrusion plate 38 is provided inside the lower housing 31. A push rod 35 is fixedly connected to the extrusion plate 38. When the push rod 35 slides downward along the upper housing 32, the extrusion plate 38 extrudes the mooncake raw material inside the mold 40 to shape the mooncake raw material. A sliding groove is provided in the inner wall of the upper housing 32. A slider 36 is slidably installed inside the sliding groove. The slider 36 is fixedly connected to the push rod 35, and the slider 36 is connected to one side of the sliding groove through a return spring 37. A driven rack 34 is fixedly installed on the push rod 35. A drive mechanism 20 is provided between the two side plates 13. The drive mechanism 20 includes a rotating shaft 21 and a sector gear 23 and a drive gear 24 that cooperate with the driven rack 34. The sector gear 23 is located directly above the feeding port 14. When shaping the mooncake, the forming mechanism 30 and the mold 40 are located on one side of the worktable 10. Figure 1 (On the left side of the worktable 10), the rotating shaft 21 drives the drive gear 24 to rotate, causing the drive gear 24 to control the driven rack 34 to move downward, which in turn controls the extrusion plate 38 to move downward through the push rod 35, so as to extrude and shape the mooncake raw material inside the mold 40; when the mooncake is demolded, the forming mechanism 30 and the mold 40 are moved to the other side of the worktable 10 ( Figure 1 (on the right side), so that the mold 40 is directly above the discharge port 14. The rotating shaft 21 drives the sector gear 23 to rotate. The sector gear 23 intermittently controls the driven rack 34 to move downward, so that the driven rack 34 controls the extrusion plate 38 to move back and forth through the push rod 35, thereby reciprocatingly pressing the plasticized mooncake inside the mold 40, so that the mooncake leaves the mold 40.

[0020] In this embodiment, the two ends of the adjusting screw 41 are rotatably connected to two side plates 13 respectively. The adjusting screw 41 is also threadedly connected to the screw sleeve 42. A drive motor 43 is fixedly mounted on one of the side plates 13. The output end of the drive motor 43 is fixedly connected to the adjusting screw 41. The drive motor 43 is used to control the rotation of the adjusting screw 41. It should be noted that, as Figure 1 As shown, a guide rod is also provided between the two side plates 13 to assist the sliding of the mold 40.

[0021] In this embodiment, the mold 40 has openings on both the upper and lower sides. The upper opening of the mold 40 is connected to the lower housing 31, and the lower opening of the mold 40 is used to connect to the feeding port 14. When the mold 40 is located on the left side of the workbench 10, the mooncake raw material is confined inside the mold 40. At this time, the mooncake raw material is squeezed by the extrusion plate 38, which can plasticize the mooncake raw material. When the mold 40 moves to the right side of the workbench 10, the mooncake raw material is squeezed again by the extrusion plate 38, and the plasticized mooncake raw material can be discharged from the feeding port 14.

[0022] In this embodiment of the application, the drive mechanism 20 further includes a sliding seat 25 mounted on the side plate 13, one of the sliding seats 25 is provided with a rotary motor 26, the rotary motor 26 is fixedly connected to one end of the rotating shaft 21, and the other end of the rotating shaft 21 is rotatably connected to another sliding seat 25; the sector gear 23 and the drive gear 24 are both fixedly mounted on the rotating shaft 21.

[0023] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the middle area of ​​the workbench 10 is provided with two top blocks 15, and the bottom of the workbench 10 is provided with a cylinder 12 for controlling the movement of the top blocks 15; a connecting plate 33 is installed at the connection between the lower housing 31 and the upper housing 32. When the cylinder 12 controls the top blocks 15 to move upward, the top blocks 15 push the connecting plate 33, causing the molding mechanism 30 to rise and then disengage from the mold 40 so that mooncake raw materials can be added into the mold 40; in addition, in order to improve the stability of the movement of the molding mechanism 30, the bottom of the connecting plate 33 can be provided with a limiting groove of the same shape as the top blocks 15 (not shown in the figure).

[0024] To prevent the drive mechanism 20 from interfering with the rising of the molding mechanism 30, in this embodiment, the sliding seat 25 is slidably mounted on the side plate 13. The side plate 13 has an arc-shaped through groove for the sliding seat 25 to slide. A driven gear 28 is rotatably mounted on the outer side of the side plate 13. A drive rod 27 is coaxially arranged on the driven gear 28. The drive rod 27 is connected to the sliding seat 25. A telescopic rod 22 is also installed on the worktable 10. The telescopic end of the telescopic rod 22 is fixedly connected to a drive rack 29. The drive rack 29 meshes with the driven gear 28. The drive rack 29 is used to control the rotation of the driven gear 28, so that the drive rod 27 drives the sliding seat 25 to slide along the arc-shaped through groove, thereby causing the drive mechanism 20 to tilt and preventing the drive mechanism 20 from interfering with the rising of the molding mechanism 30.

[0025] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that this invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that it can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics of this invention.
