Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to a vertical soup dumpling machine, belonging to the field of food processing machinery technology. Background Technology

[0002] Soup dumplings, a traditional delicacy, have a complex preparation process, especially during large-scale production where efficiency and hygiene are paramount. Existing automated soup dumpling production equipment, such as soup dumpling machines, often encounters problems with filling processing. For example, fillings (especially those containing a lot of broth or oil) are prone to sticking, clumping, or uneven distribution during transport, making subsequent shaping difficult and affecting the appearance and quality of the soup dumplings. Some machines use horizontal filling hoppers, relying on gravity or simple stirring for transport, which is unsuitable for viscous fillings, easily causing blockages and requiring frequent shutdowns for cleaning, thus reducing production efficiency. Furthermore, the filling may heat up due to friction during processing, affecting its texture and shelf life. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a soup dumpling machine that can efficiently, evenly, and at low temperatures transport fillings, and is easy to maintain. Utility Model Content

[0003] This invention overcomes the shortcomings of existing technology and provides a vertical soup dumpling machine that can effectively prevent filling blockage, ensure uniform and continuous output, improve production efficiency and soup dumpling forming quality, and is easy to clean and maintain.

[0004] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows: a vertical soup dumpling machine, including a filling hopper, a dough hopper, a forming mold, a feeding transmission mechanism, a cutter head, and a conveying and discharging mechanism. The filling hopper and the dough hopper are both connected to the forming mold. The discharge port of the forming mold falls into the cutter head through the feeding transmission mechanism. The conveying and discharging mechanism is set below the cutter head to send the formed material away. The filling hopper has a vertical structure, and the dough hopper has a horizontal structure. The two are driven by their respective power drive structures. The discharge port of the filling hopper is connected to the forming mold through a feeding pipe. A limit rod is set on the feeding pipe. The limit rod is used to limit the installation position of the power box of the dough hopper. A cooling mechanism is provided on the outside of the discharge end of the dough hopper. The structure of the filling hopper is as follows: it includes a funnel-shaped filling hopper and a stirring shaft vertically arranged inside the funnel-shaped filling hopper. The stirring shaft is provided with a spiral fan blade. The stirring shaft includes an upper half shaft, a lower half shaft, and a connecting sleeve. The connecting ends of the upper half shaft and the lower half shaft are provided with an arc-shaped connecting groove. The upper half shaft and the lower half shaft are matched and locked together by the arc-shaped connecting groove to restrict their axial displacement. The connecting sleeve is fitted at the connection between the upper half shaft and the lower half shaft and is fixed to the upper half shaft or the lower half shaft by a connector to restrict their radial displacement. A filling power shaft is provided on the outside of the funnel-shaped filling hopper. The filling power shaft is arranged parallel to the stirring shaft. The top end of the filling power shaft and the stirring shaft are connected together by a power transmission mechanism. The bottom end of the filling power shaft is arranged on the power output shaft of the filling motor. A lever is provided on the stirring shaft above the spiral fan blades. At least two levers are fixedly installed on the stirring shaft and are set at an angle upward. The different levers have different shapes. The filling will not be squeezed when it enters the filling hopper, so the vegetable filling will not be damaged by squeezing. The top of the funnel-shaped filling hopper is provided with a vertical outer edge for filling more filling. The bottom of the funnel-shaped filling hopper is provided with a filling base. The lower end of the stirring shaft is movably mounted on the filling base. A filling discharge pipe is provided between the filling base and the funnel-shaped filling hopper. The filling discharge pipe passes through the dough hopper and is connected to the forming mold.

[0005] Furthermore, a feeding assembly is provided at the filling outlet. The feeding assembly has the following structure: a feeding housing, a feeding base plate, a feeding blade, a feeding top plate, and a feeding sleeve. The feeding base plate is fixedly mounted on the filling base. The feeding housing is mounted on the feeding base plate. The feeding top plate is mounted on the upper inner side of the feeding housing. The upper side of the feeding top plate cooperates with the feeding housing to form a recessed filling guide cavity. The feeding top plate is provided with a filling inlet. The feeding sleeve is fitted onto the filling drive shaft between the feeding base plate and the feeding top plate. The feeding blade is circumferentially mounted on the feeding sleeve. The filling outlet pipe communicates with the inner cavity of the feeding housing where the feeding blade is located.

[0006] Furthermore, the lengths of the multiple feeding paddles are different, and they gradually become longer or shorter along the rotation direction to achieve the gradual pushing and uniform distribution of the filling.

[0007] Furthermore, the filling outlet pipe is disposed on the feeding housing and is integrally formed with the feeding housing.

[0008] Furthermore, the power transmission mechanism is a sprocket and chain transmission mechanism.

[0009] Furthermore, protective shells are provided on the outer sides of both the sprocket and chain drive mechanism and the filling power shaft.

[0010] Furthermore, the filling motor serves as the sole drive source, is vertically upward, and its power output shaft is connected to the end of the filling power shaft, synchronously driving the stirring shaft and the feeding assembly to achieve efficient transmission of the entire machine and continuous, lossless delivery of the filling.

[0011] Furthermore, the power supply between the feeding assembly and the stirring shaft is movably connected by a quick-connect method, which facilitates the disassembly, cleaning, or replacement of the feeding assembly.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the advantages of this utility model are as follows: The vertical filling hopper in this utility model, combined with the internal spiral fan blades and the differently shaped levers set at an upward angle, can effectively break up any clumps of filling, preventing bridging and sticking within the hopper, ensuring that the filling falls smoothly and evenly to the discharge port, achieving efficient anti-clogging and uniform feeding; the feeding component set at the discharge port, through the rotation of the feeding blades of varying lengths inside, can steadily and quantitatively push the filling into the filling discharge pipe, avoiding the problems of intermittent or pulsed discharge, achieving continuous and lossless conveying of the filling, laying the foundation for subsequent precise molding, and optimizing discharge control; at the same time, a cooling mechanism is set on the outside of the molding mold, which can effectively control the temperature of the filling near the molding stage, preventing the temperature rise due to mechanical friction from affecting the quality of the filling, especially beneficial to the stability of fillings containing soup; a single filling motor is used to synchronously drive the stirring and feeding functions through a transmission mechanism such as sprockets and chains, resulting in a compact structure and efficient transmission. The feeding assembly uses a quick-connect method for easy disassembly, cleaning, maintenance, or replacement, meeting the hygiene requirements of food machinery and reducing equipment downtime. This invention, through the combination of a vertical filling hopper and a horizontal dough hopper, and the design of the filling discharge pipe passing through the dough hopper and connecting to the forming mold, results in a compact machine structure, high space utilization, and a seamless process flow.

[0025] A lever 16 is provided on the stirring shaft 12 located above the spiral fan blade 13. At least two levers 16 are fixedly installed on the stirring shaft 12, and the levers 16 are set at an angle upward. The different levers 16 have different shapes.

[0026] A feeding component 19 is provided at the filling outlet. The feeding component 19 and the stirring shaft 12 are connected by a quick-connect method, which makes it easy to disassemble, clean or replace the feeding component 19.

[0027] The structure of the feeding assembly 19 is as follows: it includes a feeding housing 191, a feeding base plate 192, a feeding piece 193, a feeding top plate 194, and a feeding sleeve 195.

The lengths of the multiple feeding blades 193 are different, and they become longer or shorter sequentially along the rotation direction to achieve gradual pushing and uniform distribution of the filling.

[0028] The filling motor 15 serves as the sole driving source. The filling motor 15 is vertically upward, and its power output shaft is connected to the end of the filling power shaft 14, synchronously driving the stirring shaft 12 and the feeding assembly 19 to achieve efficient transmission of the whole machine and continuous and lossless conveying of the filling.

[0029] The present invention features a vertically mounted stirring shaft 12 inside a funnel-shaped filling hopper 11. The stirring shaft 12 is equipped with spiral blades 13 that primarily convey filling downwards, and above it are at least two upward-sloping levers 16 of varying shapes. These levers 16, when rotating, effectively agitate and disperse the falling filling, preventing clumping. A filling drive shaft 14, protected by a sprocket and chain transmission mechanism, is connected to the top of the stirring shaft 12 and driven by a filling motor 15.

[0030] The bottom of the funnel-shaped filling hopper 11 is connected to the feeding assembly 19 via the filling base 17. The filling enters the filling inlet 196 of the feeding assembly 19 under the action of the stirring shaft 12. The feeding sleeve 195 is fitted onto the filling power shaft 14, and the feeding blades 193 on it rotate accordingly. These feeding blades 193 have varying lengths, changing along the direction of rotation, allowing for smoother feeding of the filling into the filling outlet pipe 18, which communicates with the feeding housing 191. The filling outlet pipe 18 passes through the horizontal dough hopper 2 and then conveys the filling to the forming mold 3. The cooling mechanism 7 on the outside of the outlet end of the dough hopper 2 cools the mold to maintain a low filling temperature. The dough is conveyed from the horizontal dough hopper 2 to the forming mold 3 to combine with the filling and form the dough. The formed soup dumpling dough falls into the cutter head 5 via the dropping transmission mechanism 4 for cutting, and is finally discharged by the conveying and discharging mechanism 6.

[0031] The filling motor 15 serves as a single power source, enabling synchronous driving of stirring and feeding, resulting in high efficiency. The power transmission between the feeding assembly 19 and the stirring shaft 12 can be achieved through a quick-connect structure, facilitating the complete removal of the feeding assembly 19 for thorough cleaning or replacement, greatly improving the maintainability and hygiene of the equipment.

[0032] The embodiments of the present invention have been described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments. Within the scope of knowledge possessed by those skilled in the art, various changes can be made without departing from the spirit of the present invention.
