Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of pastry granule raw material feeding technology, and more specifically to a pastry granule raw material feeding device. Background Technology

[0002] In the industrial production of pastries, in order to improve the appearance and taste of the products, it is often necessary to sprinkle various granular decorative materials on the surface of pastries (such as cake bases, cookie dough, bread surfaces, etc.), such as chocolate chips, chopped nuts, sugar granules, coconut flakes, colored sprinkles, oat flakes, etc.

[0003] Currently, the common practice in this production process is to use manual or simple mechanical methods for spreading the ingredients. Manual spreading relies entirely on the operator's experience, and its disadvantages are obvious: high labor intensity, low production efficiency, difficulty in strictly controlling hygiene conditions, and the inability to guarantee the uniformity of spreading, resulting in inconsistent product appearance and quality, which cannot meet the requirements of modern, standardized food production.

[0004] Existing simple mechanical material-spreading devices typically consist of a hopper with perforations at the bottom positioned above a conveyor belt, allowing the material to fall naturally under its own weight. While this method replaces manual labor to some extent, it has inherent drawbacks: the natural falling method cannot control the amount and range of material spread, often resulting in the material concentrating in the center of the pastry, with insufficient coverage at the edges, or uneven distribution and poor decorative effect. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a feeding device for pastry granular raw materials, which solves the problems of low efficiency and poor uniformity of manual feeding, as well as the defects of concentrated accumulation of raw materials in simple mechanical feeding.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution of this utility model is as follows:

[0007] A feeding device for pastry granule raw materials includes a frame, a belt conveyor mechanism on the frame, a mounting frame on the frame, a storage bin on the mounting frame, a material transfer mechanism inside the storage bin, a discharge pipe at the bottom center of the storage bin, a spreading plate below the discharge pipe, multiple spreading holes on the spreading plate, two guide rods horizontally mounted on the mounting frame, fixed plates on both sides of the spreading plate, the two ends of the fixed plates being fixedly sleeved on the two guide rods respectively, two sliders between the two fixed plates, the two sliders being slidably sleeved on the two guide rods respectively, a spring connecting the sliders to the fixed plates, the sliders being fixedly connected to one side of the spreading plate, and a vibration motor mounted on one side of the spreading plate.

[0008] Furthermore, the material conveying mechanism includes a rotating shaft that is horizontally rotatably disposed within the storage bin. Both ends of the rotating shaft are provided with helical conveying blades, and the helical conveying blades at both ends rotate in opposite directions. A rotary motor that drives the rotating shaft to rotate is installed on the outside of the storage bin.

[0009] Furthermore, the belt transmission mechanism includes two sets of belt transmission components with identical structures, which are arranged close to each other. Each belt transmission component includes two transmission rollers rotatably mounted on the frame. The two transmission rollers are connected by a transmission belt. A drive motor for driving one of the transmission rollers to rotate is mounted on the frame.

[0010] Furthermore, a waste material collection guide plate is installed on the frame, and the waste material collection guide plate is located directly below the gap between the two conveyor belts.

[0011] Furthermore, a baffle is provided on the upper surface edge of the spreading plate.

[0012] Furthermore, the cross-section of the material spreading through hole is tapered, and the inner diameter of the upper end of the material spreading through hole is larger than the inner diameter of the lower end.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0014] This application uses a vibrating motor to drive the spreading plate to vibrate, and in conjunction with the elastic support structure composed of guide rods, sliders and springs, the spreading plate generates a stable vibration effect in the horizontal direction, causing the granular raw materials to fall evenly through the spreading holes. This solves the problems of low efficiency and poor uniformity of manual spreading, as well as the defects of concentrated accumulation of raw materials in simple mechanical spreading.

[0019] like Figures 1 to 3As shown, a feeding device for pastry granule raw materials includes a frame 1, a belt conveyor mechanism on the frame 1, a mounting frame 2 on the frame 1, a storage box 3 on the mounting frame 2, a material transfer mechanism inside the storage box 3, a discharge pipe 4 at the bottom center of the storage box 3, a spreading plate 5 below the discharge pipe 4, a plurality of spreading through holes 501 on the spreading plate 5, two guide rods 6 horizontally arranged on the mounting frame 2, and fixing plates 7 on both sides of the spreading plate 5. The two ends of the fixing plates 7 are respectively fixedly sleeved on the two guide rods 6, and two sliders 8 are arranged between the two fixing plates 7. The two sliders 8 are respectively slidably sleeved on the two guide rods 6, and a spring 9 connects the sliders 8 to the fixing plates 7. The sliders 8 are fixedly connected to one side of the spreading plate 5, and a vibration motor 10 is installed on one side of the spreading plate 5.

[0020] The material conveying mechanism includes a rotating shaft 11 that is horizontally rotatably disposed in the storage box 3. Both ends of the rotating shaft 11 are provided with spiral conveying blades 12, and the spiral conveying blades 12 at both ends rotate in opposite directions. A rotary motor 13 that drives the rotating shaft 11 to rotate is installed on the outside of the storage box 3.

[0021] The belt transmission mechanism includes two sets of belt transmission components with identical structures, which are arranged close to each other. Each belt transmission component includes two transmission rollers 14 rotatably mounted on the frame 1. The two transmission rollers 14 are driven to connect with each other by a transmission belt 15. A drive motor 16 that drives one of the transmission rollers 14 to rotate is mounted on the frame 1.

[0022] The frame 1 is equipped with a waste material collection guide plate 17, which is located directly below the gap between the two conveyor belts 15. The waste material collection guide plate 17 is located below the gap between the two sets of conveyor belts, and can collect excess granular raw materials that do not fall onto the pastry during the spreading process, so as to realize the recycling and reuse of raw materials and reduce production costs. At the same time, it avoids the accumulation of waste material at the bottom of the equipment, which will cause unsanitary dead corners and facilitate the cleaning and maintenance of the production line.

[0023] A baffle 18 is provided on the upper surface edge of the spreading plate 5. The baffle 18 on the upper surface edge of the spreading plate can prevent the particulate raw material from slipping off the edge of the spreading plate 5 during vibration, ensuring that the raw material falls only through the spreading through hole 501, reducing raw material waste. At the same time, the baffle 18 can constrain the distribution range of the raw material on the spreading plate 5, preventing the raw material from spreading to non-working areas such as the vibration mechanism, and improving the operational stability of the device.

[0024] The material spreading through-hole 501 has a conical cross-section, with the upper inner diameter being larger than the lower inner diameter. This conical structure, with a larger upper inner diameter than a lower inner diameter, is less prone to clogging compared to a straight hole structure. The larger upper diameter allows more particles to enter simultaneously, while the smaller lower diameter guides the particles to fall in a concentrated manner, reducing the likelihood of particles getting stuck in the hole. Simultaneously, the conical hole wall generates an oblique thrust on the particles during vibration, causing stuck particles to adjust their posture and fall smoothly. This design is particularly suitable for irregular particles such as nut pieces and chocolate chips, ensuring the continuity of the spreading process.

[0025] Working principle:

[0026] After the granular raw materials (such as chocolate beans, nut pieces, etc.) are put into the storage box 3, the rotary motor 13 drives the rotating shaft 11 to rotate. The spiral conveying blades 12 with opposite ends transmit the raw materials from both ends of the storage box 3 to the middle, so that the raw materials are evenly gathered to the discharge pipe 4 and fall into the spreading plate 5 below through the discharge pipe 4.

[0027] After the vibration motor 10 is started, the spreading plate 5 performs horizontal reciprocating vibration in cooperation with the guide rod 6, the slider 8, and the spring 9. The elasticity of the spring 9 makes the vibration more stable and avoids vibration attenuation caused by rigid connection. The granular raw material on the spreading plate 5 spreads to all sides under the action of vibration and falls evenly through the conical spreading hole 501, covering the surface of the pastry on the belt conveyor mechanism below;

[0028] The drive motor 16 drives two sets of conveyor belts 15 to smoothly transport the pastries to the area below the sprinkling plate 5. By adjusting the speed of the conveyor belts 15 and the frequency of the vibrating motor 10, the time it takes for the pastries to pass through the sprinkling area and the amount of sprinkling are precisely matched to ensure that each pastry receives the same amount of sprinkling. Any leftover material that does not fall onto the pastries falls through the gaps in the conveyor belts 15 into the leftover material collection guide plate 17 for recycling.

[0029] This invention uses vibration to spread the material, combined with a conical through-hole, to make the particles fall more dispersed, solving the problems of randomness in manual spreading and concentrated accumulation in simple mechanical spreading, thus improving the uniformity of particle distribution on the surface of pastries.
