Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of pet food production, specifically a color mixing and biscuit-making mechanism. Background Technology
[0002] With the booming development of the pet industry, pet owners' demands for pet food have shifted from simple nutritional supply to diversified and personalized options. Pet cakes, as customized foods to commemorate pets' birthdays and special holidays, are experiencing continuous market demand growth. In pet cake production, aesthetic appeal and attractiveness have become key selling points. Traditional pet cake coloring and baking facilities rely heavily on manual operation. Different colored materials are mixed by hand, transferred to molds, and then baked. This manual method has significant limitations; it's difficult to control the uniformity of color mixing, resulting in uneven color distribution and significant differences in appearance within the same batch, affecting product quality. Utility Model Content
[0003] To address the problem of uneven color mixing in the aforementioned technologies, this invention provides a color mixing and cake-making mechanism.
[0004] The technical solution of this utility model is as follows:
[0005] A color-mixing and cake-making mechanism includes: a conveying device fixed on the ground, and further includes:
[0006] Fixed brackets and support frames are spaced apart along the conveying direction of the conveying device;
[0007] Multiple color mixing mechanisms are installed above the fixed support along the conveying direction of the conveying device. Each color mixing mechanism includes a color mixing tank and a power unit. An intermittent material distribution device is connected below the color mixing mechanism. A conveying pipe is vertically installed at the bottom of the intermittent material distribution device.
[0008] The support frame is equipped with a lifting device above the conveying device, and a cake-making tray is detachably installed at the lower end of the lifting device.
[0009] Above the conveying device, there are multiple detachable mold plates with the same spacing along the conveying direction, and the mold plates correspond to the positions of the conveying pipe and the cake-making plate.
[0010] To ensure accuracy during material transfer, the distance between adjacent mold plates is the same as the distance between adjacent conveying pipes.
[0011] To ensure the aesthetic appeal of the product, the bottom surface of the biscuit tray has a patterned structure.
[0012] The method for enabling the mold plate and the dough-making plate to be used together is as follows: the cross-sectional shape of the mold plate is the same as the cross-sectional shape of the dough-making plate.
[0013] To facilitate the fit between the biscuit-making tray and the mold tray, the size of the mold tray is greater than or equal to the size of the biscuit-making tray.
[0014] To facilitate coordination between the various devices, the intermittent material distribution device can only be activated when the conveying device is stopped.
[0015] To improve the appearance of the cakes after baking and to facilitate the shaping of the material surface, a heating plate is provided inside the cake-making tray. The heating plate is arranged in a ring inside the cake-making tray and contacts the inner bottom of the cake-making tray.
[0016] To improve the efficiency of cake making, the conveying pipeline is configured as either a single-pipe type or a single-turn multi-pipe type.
[0017] As a preferred technical solution, when the conveying pipeline is configured as a single-turn multi-pipe structure, the multiple pipes are arranged along the transmission direction.
[0018] In order to achieve the coordinated use of the mold tray and the cake-making tray with the multi-pipe system, in the single-turn multi-pipe structure, the spacing between adjacent mold trays and the spacing between adjacent cake-making trays are the same as the spacing between adjacent pipes in the multi-pipe system.
[0019] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:
[0020] 1. This utility model sets up a color mixing mechanism above an intermittent conveying device and an intermittent material dispensing device below the color mixing mechanism. After the material is mixed, it is transferred to the mold plate set on the surface of the conveying device through the intermittent material dispensing device. The cooperation between the color mixing mechanism and the intermittent material dispensing device can not only accurately mix the material, thereby avoiding the color block phenomenon caused by manual color mixing, but also achieve uniform material distribution.
[0021] 2. A detachable forming tray is installed below the lifting device on the surface of the conveyor. A heating plate is installed inside the forming tray, which effectively presses the material inside the mold tray, helping the material to quickly set or initially solidify, reducing subsequent processing steps, and improving production continuity and product forming quality. Additionally, patterns are set on the outer surface of the forming tray, allowing specific patterns to be pressed onto the material surface, enriching the diversity of product appearance and enhancing market competitiveness.

[0030] Example 1
[0031] like Figure 1-4 The illustrated color mixing and biscuit-making mechanism aims to solve the problem of difficulty in controlling the uniformity of traditional manual color mixing, which easily leads to uneven color blocks and affects product quality. This embodiment includes a conveying device 1 fixedly mounted on the ground. Multiple sets of fixed supports 2 are fixedly mounted on both sides of the conveying device 1. The fixed supports 2 are arranged sequentially along the conveying direction of the conveying device 1. A color mixing device is installed above each fixed support 2, with the number of color mixing devices matching the number of fixed supports 2. In this embodiment, two sets of fixed supports 2 and color mixing devices are provided. The color mixing device includes a color mixing tank 301 and a power unit 302. The power unit 302 is located above the color mixing device, providing power. An intermittent powder feeding device is located below the color mixing device; specifically, the color mixing tank 301 is connected to the intermittent powder feeding device.
[0032] To facilitate material transfer, a conveying pipe 5 is provided below the intermittent material distribution device 4. The conveying pipe 5 has a single-pipe or single-turn multi-pipe structure. In this embodiment, the conveying pipe 5 has a single-pipe structure. In addition, the conveying device 1 uses intermittent conveying. The interval time of the conveying device 1 is the same as the material distribution time of the intermittent material distribution device 4, and the conveying time of the conveying device 1 is the same as the material distribution interval time of the intermittent material distribution device 4.
[0033] Please refer to the appendix. Figure 1-4 A support frame 7 is also provided on the side of the conveying device 1. Along the conveying direction of the conveying device 1, the support frame 7 is located behind the fixed support 2, and a lifting device 8 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the upper surface of the fixed support 2. The bottom of the lifting device 8 is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the fixed support 2, and a biscuit-making tray 9 is provided at the top of the lifting device 8. The biscuit-making tray 9 is detachably connected to the top of the lifting device 8. The surface of the other end face of the biscuit-making tray 9 is decorated with a concave pattern. In this embodiment, the pattern is a cat's paw pattern.
[0034] It is worth noting that multiple mold plates 6 are also provided on the upper surface of the conveying device 1. The multiple mold plates 6 are detachably connected to the conveying device 1. The multiple mold plates 6 are evenly arranged on the surface of the conveying device 1. In order to better adapt to material transmission, the distance between adjacent mold plates 6 is the same as the distance between adjacent transmission pipes. The cross-sectional shape of the mold plate 6 is the same as the cross-sectional shape of the cake-making plate 9. Its shape is one of a circle, a polygon, or an irregular shape. In this embodiment, the cross-sectional shape of the mold plate 6 is the same as the cross-sectional shape of the cake-making plate 9, which is a circle. In order to better fit between the mold plate 6 and the cake-making plate 9, the size of the mold plate 6 is larger than the size of the cake-making plate 9. That is, in this embodiment, the inner diameter of the mold plate 6 is larger than the diameter of the cake-making plate 9.
[0035] See attached document Figure 1-4 In operation, this device first places raw materials of different colors into the mixing tanks 301 of the two mixing mechanisms 3. The power unit 302 is activated, causing the raw materials to mix thoroughly inside the mixing tanks 301, forming a mixed material. After mixing, the intermittent dispensing device 4 conveys the mixed material to the conveying pipe 5 at intervals equal to the intermittent transmission time of the conveying device 1. The raw material then falls accurately into the corresponding mold plate 6 on the lower conveying device 1 through a single channel of the conveying pipe 5.
[0036] The conveying device 1 performs intermittent transmission, transporting the mold tray 6 containing raw materials to below the support frame 7 within the interval. At this time, the lifting device 8 drives the cake-making tray 9 to descend, and the cake-making tray 9 presses the raw materials in the mold tray 6.
[0037] In addition, a heating plate 10 is provided inside the pancake-making tray 9. The heating plate 10 is arranged in a ring inside the pancake-making tray 9 and is in contact with the bottom of the pancake-making tray 9.
[0038] At the same time, the heating plate 10 inside the biscuit tray 9 works to heat the surface of the raw material inside the mold tray 6, so that the raw material and the surface of the compressed raw material are shaped under the combined action of pressure and heat, and claw-shaped patterns are formed.
[0039] After pressing is completed, the lifting device 8 drives the cake-making tray 9 to rise and reset. The conveying device 1 starts again, transporting the formed cake products to the next process. At the same time, the new mold tray 6 moves below the conveying pipe 5 to start the next round of production.
[0040] Example 2
[0041] Unlike the above embodiments, the conveying pipe 5 in this embodiment is a single-turn multi-channel pipe structure, that is, it is distributed in parallel along the conveying direction of the conveying device, and the corresponding lifting device 8 is also a structure of multiple lifting rods. In this embodiment, the conveying pipe 5 is a 3-channel structure, so the time interval of the transfer of the conveying device 1 is also 1 / 3 of that in embodiment 1. The structures of the remaining components are the same as in embodiment 1.
