Detailed Implementation

[0014] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. Example

[0015] A pleating device for a steamed bun forming machine, such as Figures 1-9 As shown, it includes support legs 1, housing 2, and dough 20. The tops of the four support legs 1 are fixed to the housing 2. The dough 20 is placed inside the housing 2. It also includes a drive motor 3. The drive motor 3 is installed on one side of the housing 2. The output shaft of the drive motor 3 extends into the housing 2 and is fixed to a threaded rod 4. One end of the threaded rod 4 is rotatably connected to the housing 2. A first fixing frame 6 is threadedly connected to the outer wall of the threaded rod 4. A first sliding rod 5 is fixed inside the housing 2. A second fixing frame 7 is slidably connected to the outer wall of the first sliding rod 5. A forming mold 8 is fixed between the first fixing frame 6 and the second fixing frame 7. The forming mold 8 is provided with a limiting mechanism for positioning and supporting the dough 20, and a clamping mechanism for pinching and folding the dough 20.

[0016] The limiting mechanism includes limiting blocks 12. The bottom of the forming mold 8 is symmetrically fixed with limiting blocks 12. One end of each limiting block 12 is slidably connected to a rod 11. The top of the two rods 11 is fixedly connected to a support shell 9. The outer wall of the support shell 9 is in contact with the forming mold 8. The top of the support shell 9 is an inner arc surface. The bottom of the support shell 9 is fixedly connected to a moving rod 10. The outer wall of the moving rod 10 is symmetrically rotatably connected to a rotating wheel 101. The rotating wheel 101 abuts against the shell 2.

[0017] The limiting mechanism also includes a rounded corner ring 13. A rounded corner ring 13 is fixedly attached to the top of the forming mold 8. A support tray 17 is fixedly attached to the outer wall of the rounded corner ring 13. Four extrusion grooves 1701 are arranged in a ring array on the support tray 17. A second slide rod 16 is slidably connected within each of the four extrusion grooves 1701. A limiting slider 18 is fixedly attached to one end of each of the four second slide rods 16. The side of the four limiting sliders 18 closest to the dough 20 is curved, and the limiting sliders 18 are used to support the dough 20. The bottom of the limiting sliders 18 fits against the support tray 17. The outer surface of the forming mold 8... A rotating ring 14 is slidably connected to the wall. Four sliding grooves 15 are arranged in a ring array on the rotating ring 14. The other ends of four second sliding rods 16 are located in the four sliding grooves 15 respectively and are slidably connected to the four sliding grooves 15. Several teeth 19 are fixedly connected to the outer wall of the rotating ring 14. A first long plate 30 is fixedly connected to one side of the inner side of the housing 2. A toothed plate 31 is fixedly connected to one end of the first long plate 30. When the teeth 19 move, they can mesh with the toothed plate 31, thereby driving the rotating ring 14 to rotate, so that the four limiting sliders 18 move closer to each other and support the pie 20.

[0018] The clamping mechanism includes a third fixed frame 21, a third fixed frame 21 fixed to the top of the housing 2, a fourth fixed frame 22 fixed to the top of the third fixed frame 21, a first push rod 23 installed at the bottom of the fourth fixed frame 22, a fifth fixed frame 24 fixed to the output end of the first push rod 23, a connecting ring 25 fixed to the bottom of the fifth fixed frame 24, several connecting rods 26 hinged to the bottom of the connecting ring 25, and a pinching rod 27 hinged to the bottom of each of the several connecting rods 26. A fixed shaft 28 fixed to the bottom of the third fixed frame 21, several fixed blocks 29 fixed to the outer wall of the fixed shaft 28, and one end of each of the several fixed blocks 29 hinged to one of the several pinching rods 27. The pinching rods 27 are made of silicone anti-stick material.

[0019] It also includes a ramp block 32, which is fixed to the bottom of the inner wall of the housing 2. The top of the ramp block 32 is flat and one side is ramp. A clamping plate 33 is fixed to the top of the ramp block 32. When the rotating wheel 101 moves, it can contact the ramp block 32 and the clamping plate 33.

[0020] It also includes a sixth fixing frame 34, which is symmetrically fixed inside the housing 2. A second push rod 35 is installed between the two sixth fixing frames 34. A pressing forming roller 36 is fixed to the output end of the second push rod 35. The pressing forming roller 36 is made of silicone anti-stick material. A second long plate 37 is fixed to one side of each of the two sixth fixing frames 34. An automatic feeding box 38 is installed at one end of each of the two second long plates 37. A guide slide 39 is fixed to the bottom of the automatic feeding box 38.

[0021] First, roll the dough into a dough disc 20 of moderate thickness. Then, place the dough disc 20 between the four limiting sliders 18 and above the forming mold 8. It is worth noting that flour is sprinkled on the support tray 17, rounded corner ring 13, forming mold 8, and support shell 9. Start the drive motor 3. The output shaft of the drive motor 3 drives the threaded rod 4 to rotate. The threaded rod 4 drives the first fixed frame 6, which in turn drives the forming mold 8 and the second fixed frame 7 to move on the outer wall of the first slide rod 5. At this time, the rotating wheel 101 rotates with the movement of the forming mold 8. When the dough disc 20 reaches directly below the lower forming roller 36, the output shaft of the drive motor 3 stops rotating. The output end of the second push rod 35 drives the lower forming roller 36 to move downwards, pressing the center of the dough disc 20 downwards. As the dough is pressed down, the center of the dough 20 is forced to indent into the forming mold 8 and the supporting shell 9. The rounded corners of the rounded corner ring 13 allow the center of the dough 20 to enter the forming mold 8 and the supporting shell 9 more easily. Furthermore, because the rolled-out dough 20 has a chewy texture, its edges will curve upwards when it indents, with a height equal to the height of the limiting slider 18. Then, the output end of the second push rod 35 drives the pressing forming roller 36 to move upwards and reset. The automatic feeding box 38 begins to feed the filling. The inclined guide slide 39 ensures the filling accurately enters the indented dough 20. The output end of the drive motor 3 continues to rotate. When the rotating wheel 101 moves to the inclined surface of the inclined block 32, the filling... The extrusion of the inclined surface of the dough block 32 causes the rotating wheel 101 to drive the moving rod 10, the supporting shell 9, the recessed dough 20, and the rod frame 11 to slide on the limiting block 12. At this time, the supporting shell 9 pushes the recessed dough 20 away from the forming mold 8. As the inclined surface of the inclined block 32 tilts upward, the supporting shell 9 pushes the recessed dough 20 to continuously increase in height. At the same time, the moving forming mold 8 drives the rotating ring 14 to move. The moving rotating ring 14 drives several teeth 19 to move. The teeth 19 move and contact and mesh with the toothed plate 31. Since the toothed plate 31 is fixed on the first long plate 30 and the rotating ring 14 moves continuously, the teeth 19 are forced to rotate the rotating ring 14 along the toothed plate 31. The rotation of the rotating ring 14 drives the sliding groove 15 to press the second sliding rod 16. The second sliding rod 16, under force, drives the limiting slider 18 to slide within the extrusion groove 1701. At this time, several limiting sliders 18 move closer to each other towards the center of the rounded corner ring 13 until they abut against the raised concave dough 20. At this point, the rotating wheel 101 moves to the plane of the inclined block 32 and abuts against the clamping plate 33. The raised concave dough 20 is located directly below the fixed shaft 28. By having several limiting sliders 18 move closer to each other and abut against the concave dough 20, the raised concave dough 20 can be supported on the one hand, preventing it from becoming unstable and tilting in all directions. On the other hand, it improves stability for subsequent pleating. It is worth noting that because the dough has been fermented in advance and rolled into dough 20, and is squeezed by the pressing forming roller 36 and rolled out, the dough 20 has elasticity.For a short period of time, the opening of the concave dough 20 will not deform inward or outward. At this time, the first push rod 23 is activated. The output end of the first push rod 23 drives the fifth fixing frame 24 to move downward. The fifth fixing frame 24 drives the connecting ring 25 and the connecting rod 26 to move downward. The movement of the connecting rod 26 drives the pinching rods 27 to rotate around the fixing block 29 as the hinge point. Several pinching rods 27 move closer to each other and contract until they contact the opening of the concave dough 20, pinching the opening of the concave dough 20 together. Since there are gaps between the several pinching rods 27, pinch marks will be left on the dough 20. The pinch marks can... The first push rod 23 then drives the fifth fixing frame 24 to reset, replacing the pinching and pleating. Several pinching rods 27 unfold and detach from the dough 20. The pinched steamed bun is then manually removed, and excess dough is trimmed off with scissors. The drive motor 3 then rotates in the opposite direction, causing the rotating wheel 101 to move away from the plane of the inclined block 32 and towards its inclined surface. At this time, the supporting shell 9, the rod frame 11, and the moving rod 10 move downwards and reset under their own weight. Simultaneously, several teeth 19 mesh with the toothed plate 31 and rotate in the opposite direction, causing several limiting sliders 18 to move away from each other and reset, completing the pinching and pleating of the steamed bun.

[0022] The above description is merely an embodiment of this utility model and is not intended to limit the scope of this utility model. All equivalent substitutions made within the principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model. Contents not described in detail in this utility model are existing technologies known to those skilled in the art.
