Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of food equipment technology, specifically a food raw material batching device. Background Technology

[0002] Multi-layered pastries with fillings are currently very popular. These pastries consist of layers of dough, with a filling spread between adjacent layers. During production, the filling is applied manually. When multiple layers are needed, the filling is applied and assembled manually. This process is inefficient, and the weight of the filling cannot be guaranteed, resulting in inconsistent product quality. Utility Model Content

[0003] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to provide a food preform batching device for automated production of food with fillings.

[0004] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the present invention includes a frame, the structural features of which are: the frame is provided with a conveyor belt for transporting billets, the frame is provided with multiple unloading devices, the unloading devices store multiple billets, the lower end of the unloading device is provided with a unloading port, the unloading port is located above the conveyor belt, the unloading port is provided with a material distribution device for dropping the billets at intervals, and a core-placing device for placing cores onto the billets on the conveyor belt is provided between adjacent unloading devices.

[0005] With the above structure, the blank is placed on the conveyor belt by the blanking device. The conveyor belt moves the blank to the sandwich device, where the sandwich device places the sandwich onto the blank on the conveyor belt. After the sandwich is placed, the conveyor belt moves the blank to the next blanking device, where another blank is placed on top of the blank with the sandwich, forming a sandwich structure with a sandwich between two blanks. However, when multiple sandwiches are required, multiple blanking mechanisms corresponding to the number of blank layers are set on the frame. When the conveyor belt drives the blanking mechanism and sandwich device in sequence, multi-layer sandwich food is produced, saving labor costs, realizing the production of sandwich food with different numbers of layers, and improving production efficiency and the stability of finished products.

[0006] The material feeding device includes a material feeding trough mounted on a frame, with the material feeding port located at the lower end of the trough. The trough includes a receiving plate for receiving the billet and a first baffle located on the right side of the receiving plate. The upper end of the trough is inclined, and the lower end is vertical. The upper and lower ends of the trough are connected by an arc-shaped surface. A second baffle is provided on the left side of the lower end of the receiving plate, opposite to the first baffle. The distance between the first and second baffles is the same as the distance in the left-right direction of the billet. A third baffle is installed at the lower end of the second baffle, opposite to the lower end of the receiving plate. The distance between the third baffle and the first baffle is the same as the distance in the front-back direction of the billet. With consistent spacing, the billets are placed on the discharge chute. The upper end of the receiving plate is tilted, which facilitates the placement of the billets and improves the discharge efficiency. The first baffle on one side can prevent the billets from falling and also acts as a positioning tool, making it easy for the billets to fall between the first and second baffles as they slide downwards. The first and second baffles limit the left and right position of the billets when they fall. The lower end of the receiving plate and the third baffle determine the front and back position of the billets when they fall. The receiving plate is vertically set at the lower end, which facilitates the falling of the billets and ensures the accuracy of the falling billets. Multiple billets are placed on the discharge chute and fall one by one, realizing the storage and discharge of billets and improving automation.

[0007] The material distribution device includes a support frame located at the lower end of the discharge port. The support frame includes two support rods arranged laterally along the direction of the conveyor belt. The distance between the two support rods is less than the width of the billet in the front-to-back direction. The conveyor belt is equipped with a discharge rod that can extend between the two support rods. The discharge rod is arranged vertically, and the height of the upper end of the discharge rod from the top of the support rod is less than the thickness of the billet. The support frame intercepts the billets falling from the discharge port. The bottommost billet falls onto the support frame. When the conveyor belt rotates, the discharge rod is driven by the conveyor belt to extend between the two support rods. The discharge rod abuts against the side wall of the bottommost billet, pushing the bottommost billet laterally until the billet is pushed out from the end of the support rod and falls onto the conveyor belt. The next layer of billet after the discharge device falls downward onto the support frame. Through the arrangement of the discharge rod and the support frame, the interval discharge of the billets is realized, thereby achieving the accuracy of the discharge position, ensuring the interval between the billets, and thus ensuring the production cycle, production quality, and production efficiency.

[0008] The sandwich device includes a loading box located on a frame, with a channel for transporting sandwich materials below the loading box. A disc is located at the front end of the loading box and at the front end of a conveyor belt. A rotatable output roller is located outside the disc, and multiple radially arranged discharge channels are located inside the output roller. These discharge channels are connected to each other, and each discharge channel is equipped with an air jet device that ejects material outwards. A triggering device for the air jet device is located inside the disc and is vertically downwards. The sandwich materials are carried by the loading box and conveyed forward through the channel to the output roller. In the discharge channel, when the discharge channel rotates to a vertical downward position, the discharge channel is located at the lower end of the triggering device. The triggering device then triggers the jetting device in the discharge channel downwards, which sprays the sandwich material in the discharge channel downwards. The sandwich material is sprayed onto the upper surface of the blank, thus realizing the placement of the sandwich material. Through the sandwiching device, manpower is saved. At the same time, by controlling the rotation speed of the output roller, the interval between the discharge channel rotating to the lower end is consistent with the interval between the blank moving to the lower end of the sandwiching device, ensuring the accuracy of sandwich placement, saving manpower, and improving production efficiency.

[0009] The triggering device includes a trigger groove arranged vertically downwards, and a trigger rod installed in the trigger groove. The trigger rod is vertically downwards, and a spring is provided at the rear end of the trigger rod to press down on the trigger rod. When the discharge channel rotates to a vertical position, the spring presses down on the trigger rod, and the trigger rod presses down on the jet device in the discharge channel. The jet device sprays the sandwich material in the discharge channel downwards, thereby realizing the control of sandwich material discharge.

[0010] In summary, this utility model has the advantages of automating the production of multi-layered sandwich foods, saving human resources, and improving production efficiency. Attached Figure Description

[0012] like Figure 1-8 As shown, this utility model is a food preform batching device, which includes a frame 1, a conveyor belt 2 for transporting preforms 5 on the frame 1, and at least two dropping devices 3 at the upper end of the conveyor belt 2. Multiple preforms 5 are stored through the dropping devices 3, and a dropping port is provided below the dropping devices 3, through which the preforms can fall. Below the dropping port is a distributing device 4 that can drop the preforms intermittently onto the conveyor belt 2. The preforms 5 fall above the conveyor belt 2 through the distributing device 4, and are transported to the next device by the conveyor belt 2. Between every two dropping devices 3 is a sandwiching device 6 for placing a filling onto the upper surface of the preform 5. During production, a layer of preforms 5 is dropped onto the conveyor belt 2 by the dropping devices 3, and the conveyor belt 2 transports the preforms 5 to the sandwiching device 6, where a filling is placed onto the upper surface of the preform 5. After the filling material is placed, the conveyor belt 2 carries the blank containing the filling to the next unloading device 3. The next unloading device 3 drops the blank 5 downwards, and the conveyor belt 2 forms a single layer of blank 5, filling, and blank 5. When a multi-layered sandwich finished product is required, more filling devices 6 and unloading devices 3 are added around the conveyor belt 2 to form a multi-layered sandwich finished product.

[0013] like Figure 1-7 As shown, the blanking device 3 includes a blanking trough 31 mounted on the frame 1. The blanking trough 31 includes a receiving plate 311 and a first baffle 32 located on one side of the receiving plate 311. The billet 5 is cylindrical. The receiving plate 311 has an inclined upper surface and a vertically arranged lower surface, with an arc-shaped surface between the inclined upper surface and the vertical lower surface. The inclined surface allows the receiving plate 311 to bear part of the weight of the billet 5 after it is placed on it, and the inclined receiving plate 311 facilitates the automatic sliding of the billet 5. Compared with a vertically arranged blanking trough 31, where the billets 5 are stacked in the vertical blanking trough 31, the upper billet 5 presses against the lower billet 5 when it falls downwards, causing the lower billet 5 to bear more pressure and resulting in compression. The inclined receiving plate 311 ensures automatic falling while avoiding compression between the billets 5.

[0014] like Figure 1-7As shown, in this embodiment, the first baffle 32 is located on the right side of the receiving plate 311, and a chamfer is provided between the first baffle 32 and the material discharge chute 31. A second baffle 33 and a third baffle 34 are provided at the bottom of the receiving plate 311. The second baffle 33 is positioned opposite to the first baffle 32, and the distance between the second baffle 33 and the first baffle 32 is the same as the diameter of the billet 5. The third baffle 34 is positioned opposite to the receiving plate 311. The third baffle 34 is an arc-shaped plate, with its lower end vertically positioned. The third baffle 34 maintains a relative distance from the receiving plate 311, and the arc shape of the arc-shaped plate of the third baffle 34 is consistent with that of the arc-shaped plate of the receiving plate 311. The third baffle 34 and the receiving plate 311 respectively block the front and rear sides of the billet 5. The first baffle 32 and the second baffle 33 restrict the left and right directions of the billet, and the third baffle 34 restricts the front end direction of the billet, thereby precisely controlling the position of the billet 5.

[0015] like Figure 1-7 As shown, a material distribution device 4 is provided at the lower end of the material drop chute 31. The material distribution device 4 includes a support frame 41, which includes two support rods 42 arranged laterally along the direction of the conveyor belt 2. The distance between the two support rods 42 is less than the width of the billets 5 in the front-to-back direction. The support rods 42 block the falling of the billets 5. The height difference between the fourth baffle and the support rods 42 is the thickness of one billet. Multiple material discharge rods 21 are provided on the conveyor belt 2. The material discharge rods 21 can extend into the support rods 42 and abut against the side of the bottommost billet, pulling the bottommost billet down from the other end of the support rods 42. After the material discharge rods 21 pull the billet down from the end of the support rods 42, the billet falls onto the conveyor belt 2, and the billet adheres to the material discharge rods 21, which then move the billet. After the billet passes through the sandwich device 6, sandwich material is placed on the upper surface of the billet, and then the material discharge rods 21 carry the billet with sandwich material to the next material drop device 3. When the food passes the next unloading device 3, the lowest blank on the support rod 42 of the next unloading device 3 is pulled down by the unloading rod 21 and falls onto the blank on the conveyor belt 2, forming a food product with a sandwich layer. The unloading rod 21 ensures that the distance between the blanks on the conveyor belt 2 is the same, thus ensuring the stability of the blank unloading.

[0016] like Figure 1 As shown, a pressing device 7 is provided at the right end of the unloading device 3 where the upper blank 5 is placed. The pressing device 7 includes an inclined pressing rod. The pressing rod presses the blank downward, and the upper and lower blanks are pressed inward, so that the sandwich is more evenly coated.

[0017] like Figure 1-7As shown, when multi-layered food is required, multiple feeding devices and sandwiching devices 6 are spaced apart on the frame 1. When two layers of sandwiching are required, three feeding devices are spaced apart, and sandwiching devices 6 are provided between adjacent feeding devices, for a total of two sandwiching devices 6, to realize the production of food with three layers of blank 5 and two layers of sandwiching.

[0018] like Figure 1 , 8 As shown, the sandwich assembly 6 includes a hopper located on the frame 1. Material is placed into the hopper, which stores the sandwich material. A feed pipe running in the front-to-back direction is located at the lower front end of the hopper, and a metering discharge device is located at the front end of the feed pipe. A screw is installed inside the feed pipe, and a drive device is connected to the rear of the screw to drive its rotation. As the screw rotates, it feeds the sandwich material from the hopper towards the conveyor belt and pushes the sandwich material downwards. The metering discharge device has a discharge port located at the front end of the conveyor belt 2. The metering discharge device meterly squeezes the material from the feed pipe into the blank 5 through the discharge port, thus achieving material discharge.

[0019] like Figure 1 , 8 As shown, in this embodiment, the quantitative discharging device includes a circular disc installed at the front end of the feeding pipe, with the disc's axis pointing forward and backward. An output roller 61 is provided outside the disc, rotating along the disc, with its outer end face circulating close to the conveyor belt 2. Multiple discharge channels 64 are provided inside the output roller 61, arranged radially along the axis of the disc. An air jet device 62 is installed inside each discharge channel 64, and a gas storage cylinder for storing high-pressure gas is provided at the front end of the output roller. The number of discharge channels 64 can be adjusted according to actual production needs, and can be 3, 4, 6, etc. In this embodiment, there are 6 discharge channels 64. The six discharge channels 64 are evenly arranged around the axis. The discharge channels 64 are connected to the front end of the feeding pipe. When the screw rotates, it squeezes the filling material inside the feeding pipe forward into the discharge channel 64. Then, the air jet device 62 sprays the filling material from the opening of the discharge channel 64, allowing it to fall onto the blank below, completing the filling placement.

[0020] like Figure 1 , 8As shown, the jetting device 62 includes a jetting cylinder installed in the discharge channel 64, with a jetting valve axially mounted on the jetting cylinder. When the jetting valve opens, the jetting cylinder ejects the material from the discharge channel 64 outwards. A triggering mechanism for controlling the jetting valve is provided inside the disc. The jetting cylinder is connected to high-pressure gas; when the jetting valve is triggered, the jetting cylinder ejects the high-pressure gas, ejecting the sandwiched material inside the discharge channel 64 outwards along the opening of the discharge channel 64. The structure of the jetting device 62 is prior art and will not be described in detail here. A triggering groove is provided at the lower end of the disc vertically downwards along the axis, and a triggering device 63 is installed in the triggering groove. The triggering device 63 includes a triggering rod, with a spring mounted on the upper end of the triggering rod. The two ends of the spring press against the upper end face of the triggering rod and the inner end face of the triggering groove, respectively. When the triggering rod is in the groove, the spring is in a compressed state, and the spring has a force that pushes the triggering rod outwards. The spring pushes the trigger rod vertically downwards. After being pushed, the trigger rod pops out of the groove and downwards, triggering the jet valve in the jet cylinder. After the jet valve opens, the jet cylinder is triggered, and the jet assembly sends the sandwich material out from the opening of the discharge channel 64.

[0021] like Figure 1 , 8 As shown, since the trigger groove is set vertically downwards, the trigger rod 64 moves vertically up and down along the trigger groove. By adjusting the rotation frequency of the output roller 61, the time it takes for the adjacent discharge channel 64 to rotate to its lowest point can be controlled. This time is consistent with the time it takes for the conveyor belt 2 to transport the adjacent blank to the bottom of the output roller 61. Through precise control, it is possible to control that when the blank is transported to the bottom of the roller, the output roller 61 rotates the discharge channel 64 to its bottom point, triggering the placement of the sandwich material via the trigger device 63. An annular channel is provided between the output roller 61 and the disc, and multiple limiting blocks for pressing the trigger rod are provided in the annular channel. The upper end face of the limiting block is arc-shaped, and the limiting block is located between adjacent discharge channels 64. As the output roller 61 rotates, the trigger rod presses against the upper end face of the limiting block. As the arc-shaped trigger rod of the limiting block compresses the spring inward. When the discharge channel 64 rotates to the lower end of the trigger groove, the limit block rotates past the trigger groove, the trigger rod loses its resistance, and the force of the spring pushes the trigger rod downward. The trigger rod then strikes the spraying device of the discharge channel 64, completing the discharge of the sandwich.
