Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of food processing technology, specifically, it relates to a rotary automatic pancake machine. Background Technology

[0002] Pancakes are a popular snack made from whole grain flour. Due to their diverse ingredients and portability, they have become a favorite food. Making pancakes by hand requires spreading the batter on a griddle and cooking it. Spreading the batter requires a lot of manpower and resources, and the slow speed of manual labor results in low efficiency in making pancakes.

[0003] A document with publication number (CN213961523U) discloses a novel rotary pancake maker, comprising a furnace body and a griddle. A support plate is fixed to the side wall of the furnace body, and a support column is vertically fixed to the support plate. A guide groove is fixed to the top of the support column, and a suspension beam is hinged to the guide groove via a pivot. A scraper is installed at the bottom of the long end of the suspension beam. A stop-fall baffle is fixed to the top of the guide groove, and a stop-fall groove is formed at the top of the stop-fall baffle. A pair of support blocks are fixed to the top of the suspension beam, and a sliding rod parallel to the suspension beam is fixed between the two support blocks. A spring and a slider are fitted onto the sliding rod. One end of the spring is fixedly connected to a support block near the griddle, and the other end of the spring is fixedly connected to the slider. A stop bar is fixed to the top of the slider, allowing the suspension beam to fall into the stop-fall groove to prevent it from falling onto the griddle when it flips outward. The above device is easy to use and can effectively restrain the flipped-out suspension beam, ensuring it rests stably above the griddle without affecting surrounding equipment and personnel.

[0004] The aforementioned device can only process pancakes in a single operation and cannot achieve continuous pancake processing. With the booming development of the current market, assembly line operations have emerged, but there is no existing technology that can achieve fully automated continuous pancake processing equipment, which affects the production efficiency of pancakes.

[0005] In view of this, this utility model is proposed. Utility Model Content

[0006] To solve the technical problems in pancake production, the basic concept of the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows: A rotary automatic pancake machine includes an operating component for continuous automatic operation. The operating component includes a base, a griddle, a metering cylinder, a scraper, and a frame. The griddle is arranged around the periphery of the base, the metering cylinder is arranged on one side, the scraper is arranged opposite to the corresponding griddle, the metering cylinder is close to the scraper, and the scraper is movable. The frame is arranged on one side of the corresponding griddle.

[0007] In a preferred embodiment of this utility model, a first motor pancake is fixedly connected inside the base, and a horizontal frame pancake is arranged around the output end of the first motor pancake. Each horizontal frame pancake is fixedly connected to the output end of the first motor pancake, and the corresponding griddle is fixedly connected to the horizontal frame pancake.

[0008] In a preferred embodiment of this utility model, a first cylinder pancake is provided on one side of the corresponding griddle, a first support pancake is fixedly connected to the output end of the first cylinder pancake, a metering cylinder is fixedly connected to the first support pancake, a second motor pancake is fixedly connected to the first support pancake, and a scraper is fixedly connected to the output end of the second motor pancake.

[0009] In a preferred embodiment of this utility model, a second cylinder pancake is fixedly connected to the frame, a second support pancake is fixedly connected to the output end of each second cylinder pancake, a fourth motor pancake is fixedly connected to the second support pancake, and a movable block pancake is fixedly connected to the output end of the fourth motor pancake.

[0010] In a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the movable pancake block is surrounded by a feeding end pancake, and the end of each feeding end pancake is fixedly connected to a feeding block pancake. The end of each feeding block pancake is arc-shaped, and each feeding block pancake is made of high-temperature resistant rubber material.

[0011] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the frame is symmetrically provided with mounting frame pancakes, and each mounting frame pancake is fixedly connected to the frame. The ends of the mounting frame pancakes are rotatably connected to support shaft pancakes, and one of the support shaft pancakes is driven by a transmission belt pancake.

[0012] In a preferred embodiment of this utility model, a third motor is fixedly connected to the frame, the output end of the third motor is driven by a transmission belt, and the support shafts are arrayed among the pancakes and driven by a support belt.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages: 1. This rotary automatic pancake machine, through components within the working assembly, allows pancakes to be removed from the next griddle while the previous griddle is processing pancakes, and pancake ingredients to be added to another griddle, with an intermediate griddle, thereby extending the processing time and enabling continuous assembly line operation for pancake removal.

[0014] 2. This rotary automatic pancake machine has extremely low adhesion between the pancake and the griddle after processing. Therefore, the pancake can be easily removed from the corresponding griddle during rotation. The high-temperature resistant rubber material reduces hard contact with the pancake, minimizing damage. Furthermore, the arc-shaped design of the pancake reduces lateral pulling force, preventing damage to the pancake's appearance during removal.

[0015] 3. This rotary automatic pancake machine has an intermittent setting for the pancake support belt. During the pancake conveying process, the pancakes are cooled down quickly to prevent them from getting too hot, which would cause them to stick together and affect their appearance.

[0019] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The following embodiments are used to illustrate this utility model.

[0020] Please see Figure 1-5A rotary automatic pancake machine includes an operating component for continuous automatic operation. The operating component includes a base 1, a griddle 2, a metering cylinder 3, a scraper 34, and a frame 4. The griddle 2 is arranged around the periphery of the base 1. The metering cylinder 3 is located on one side, and the scraper 34 is arranged opposite to it. The metering cylinder 3 is close to the scraper 34, and the scraper 34 is movable. The frame 4 is located on one side of the corresponding griddle 2. Through the components within the operating component, during the processing of pancakes on the previous griddle 2, pancakes are removed from the next griddle 2, and pancake ingredients are added to another griddle 2, with an interval of one griddle 2 in between. This extends the processing time and enables continuous assembly line operation, including continuous assembly line operation for pancake removal.

[0021] It is worth noting that any of the electrical control components in this device can achieve synchronous and coordinated operation after debugging. Since this part is the debugging part and not the technical point of this optimization scheme, it will not be elaborated here.

[0022] The base 1 is fixedly connected to a first motor 11. A crossbeam 12 is arranged around the output end of the first motor 11. Each crossbeam 12 is fixedly connected to the output end of the first motor 11. The corresponding grid plate 2 is fixedly connected to the crossbeam 12. An electric heating system is installed in the corresponding grid plate 2. The electric heating system is a well-known technology in the field, so it is not disclosed in detail in the accompanying drawings and text. It will not be described in detail here. The temperature adjustment of the electric heating system in the grid plate 2 is changed according to the actual production needs, and the same applies to other components.

[0023] The corresponding griddle 2 has a first cylinder 31 on one side. The output end of the first cylinder 31 is fixedly connected to a first bracket 32. A metering cylinder 3 is fixedly connected to the first bracket 32. A second motor 33 is fixedly connected to the first bracket 32. The output end of the second motor 33 is fixedly connected to a scraper 34. The first motor 31 drives the crossbeam 12 to rotate through its output end. As the crossbeam 12 rotates, it drives the griddle 2 to move. When the griddle 2 moves to the lower end of the metering cylinder 3, the metering cylinder 3 feeds raw materials onto the griddle 2 in a metered manner. The second motor 33 drives the scraper 34 to rotate through its output end. The first cylinder 31 drives the scraper 34 to rotate through its output end. A support 32 is raised and lowered. When the griddle 2 moves to the bottom of the metering cylinder 3, the first cylinder 31 and the first support 32 drive the scraper 34 downward, so that the scraper 34 is in close contact with the surface of the griddle 2. The scraper 34 rotates and evenly spreads the raw material on the griddle 2. Then the griddle 2 is rotated away. Before the griddle 2 is removed, the first cylinder 31 and the first support 32 drive the scraper 34 away from the griddle 2. Then heat processing is carried out in rotation to make pancakes. Part of the griddle 2 is processed in subsequent steps, and the empty griddle 2 is processed in the above steps to realize continuous and automated feeding pancake operation. The metering cylinder 3 is an existing mature technology. In the publicly known technology in this field, the metering of the metering cylinder 3 and how to control the addition and discharge of materials have been disclosed in detail. Therefore, it is not disclosed in the text or accompanying drawings. A pancake machine for preparing shrimp cakes, with announcement number CN222357130U, includes a fixed base plate. A turntable is rotatably connected to the center of the top of the fixed base plate. Several fixed seats are evenly spaced around the edge of the top of the turntable. A heating plate is rotatably connected to the top of each fixed seat. A heating plate is provided on the side of each fixed seat near the center of the turntable axis. The device is equipped with a mudflat mechanism. Symmetrical upright plates are arranged on both sides of the turntable. A triangular plate is fixedly connected to the side of each upright plate that is far apart from the others. A feeding mechanism and an auxiliary pancake-making mechanism are respectively arranged on the other side of the two upright plates. The feeding mechanism enables automated feeding, and the mudflat mechanism evenly coats the material, facilitating uniform heating by the heating plate. The auxiliary pancake-making mechanism shortens the frying time, enabling the pancake-making process to be completed quickly and accurately. This avoids the time and manpower waste of traditional manual operations, which has already been fully disclosed and will not be elaborated further here.

[0024] The frame 4 is fixedly connected to a second cylinder 51. The output end of each second cylinder 51 is fixedly connected to a second bracket 52. A fourth motor 53 is fixedly connected to the second bracket 52. The output end of the fourth motor 53 is fixedly connected to a movable block 5. A feeding end 6 is arranged around the movable block 5. Each feeding end 6 has a feeding block 61 fixedly connected to its end. Each feeding block 61 has an arc-shaped end and is made of high-temperature resistant rubber. When the pancakes on the griddle 2 are processed and the griddle 2 moves to the corresponding position on the frame 4, the second cylinder 51 drives the second bracket 52 through its output end. The frame 52 is raised and lowered to a suitable position. The output end of the fourth motor 53 drives the movable block 5 to rotate. As the movable block 5 rotates, it drives the feeding end 6. The feeding end 6 drives the feeding block 61 to contact the pancake on the griddle 2. Since the pancake has very low adhesion to the griddle 2 after processing, the feeding block 61 can easily remove the pancake from the corresponding griddle 2 during rotation. With the help of high-temperature resistant rubber material, hard contact with the pancake is reduced, and damage to the pancake is reduced. Furthermore, the arc end of the feeding block 61 reduces the lateral pulling force on the pancake, thus avoiding damage to the appearance of the pancake during the removal process.

[0025] The frame 4 is symmetrically equipped with mounting frames 41, each of which is fixedly connected to the frame 4. Each mounting frame 41 is rotatably connected to a support shaft 42 at its end. One of the support shafts 42 is driven by a transmission belt 43. A third motor 44 is fixedly connected to the frame 4. The output end of the third motor 44 is driven by the transmission belt 43. The support shafts 42 are arrayed and driven by a support belt 45. The third motor 44 drives the transmission belt 43 through its output end. The transmission belt 43 drives the support shafts 42, and the support shafts 42 drive the support belt 45. The support belt 45 is located below the corresponding griddle 2. After the pancake is removed by the feeding block 61, it is directly sent to the support belt 45. The support belt 45 is intermittently set to quickly cool the pancake during transport, preventing it from getting too hot and sticking together, which would affect its appearance. During transport by the support belt 45, the pancake is transported to a suitable storage device.
