Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of tofu processing equipment technology, and in particular to a tofu processing turning device. Background Technology

[0002] Tofu is a traditional food rich in nutrients and with a delicious taste. During its processing, it needs to be turned over to ensure even heating and proper shaping. Currently, the turning process in tofu processing is mostly done manually, which is not only inefficient but also labor-intensive, making it unsuitable for large-scale production. Although some tofu turning equipment has appeared on the market, these devices generally suffer from complex structures, inconvenient operation, and low turning efficiency, failing to meet the needs of modern tofu production. Furthermore, existing turning equipment typically can only process a small amount of tofu at a time, unable to achieve batch turning, severely impacting production efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0003] This application provides a tofu-processing turning device. The device has a turntable driven by a servo motor on the frame. The tofu in the four boxes is supported by electric cylinders and a top plate. When the turntable rotates, it drives the electric cylinders and the four boxes to rotate synchronously by 180°, thereby turning and demolding the tofu in the four boxes at the same time, improving the tofu turning efficiency, realizing automated operation, and saving manpower. The device is equipped with a first slide groove and a second slide groove on the turntable. Two support frames move in the corresponding slide grooves through pulleys, so that the boxes and electric cylinder assembly can be easily pushed into the working position or pulled out for loading and unloading, making the operation convenient.

[0004] This application provides a tofu-processing turning device, comprising: a frame, with a housing on each side of the frame, a turntable mounted on each housing, a bearing seat in the center of the turntable, a support column at each end of the bearing seat, the two support columns welded to the bottom side wall of the housing, an auxiliary roller mounted on the top inner wall and bottom inner wall of each housing, the two auxiliary rollers closely attached to the outer side of the turntable, and two retaining rings welded to the inner walls on both sides of each housing, the two retaining rings movably engaging with the side wall of the turntable, and a [missing information - likely a type of welded device]. The cross-shaped structure consists of a servo motor connected to the center of a turntable. Each turntable has two parallel welded slides, namely slide 1 and slide 2. A support frame 1 is mounted on slide 1, and a support frame 2 is mounted on slide 2. Support frame 1 has two slots, on which four boxes are mounted. Support frame 2 has four electric cylinders mounted vertically, each corresponding to the center of a box. Each frame extends a platform from its side wall, and each platform has a slide 3 mounted on it. The height of slide 3 is equal to the height of slides 1 and 2 that are horizontally connected.

[0005] A controller, servo motor, and four electric cylinders are electrically connected to the controller on the side wall of the frame.

[0006] Furthermore, a disc is welded to the top of the piston rod of each electric cylinder.

[0007] Furthermore, two pulleys are installed at both ends of the bottom of support frame one, and two pulleys are installed at both ends of the top and bottom of support frame two, with each pulley installed in a corresponding groove.

[0008] Furthermore, a plate is provided on the frame corresponding to the position of the retaining ring.

[0009] Furthermore, both slide 1 and slide 2 have a groove at the same end, and each groove has a retaining plate.

[0010] Furthermore, the controller is equipped with several operation buttons.

[0011] As can be seen from the above technical solutions, this application provides a tofu processing turning device, including: a frame, with a frame body on each side of the frame body, a turntable mounted on each frame body, a bearing seat in the center of the turntable, a support column mounted at each end of the bearing seat, the two support columns welded to the bottom side wall of the frame body, an auxiliary roller mounted on the top inner wall and bottom inner wall of each frame body, the two auxiliary rollers closely attached to the outer side of the turntable, a retaining ring welded to the inner walls on both sides of each frame body, the two retaining rings movably engaging with the side wall of the turntable, and a cross welded to each turntable, the cross of one turntable... A servo motor is connected to the center of the frame. Each turntable has two parallel welded slides, one and two. A support frame is mounted on slide one, and a support frame is mounted on slide two. Support frame one has two slots, each holding one of four housings. Four electric cylinders are vertically mounted on support frame two, each corresponding to the center of one housing. A platform extends from the side wall of each frame, and a slide three is mounted on each platform. The height of slide three is equal to the height of the horizontally connected slides one and two. A controller is mounted on the side wall of one frame, and the servo motor and four electric cylinders are electrically connected to the controller. The controller extends the piston rods of four electric cylinders, with the disc at the top of each piston rod contacting the top plate inside the container. The operator then activates a servo motor via the controller, driving the turntable to rotate 180° clockwise. This causes the two support frames and the tofu container to flip. The turntable rotation then drives the electric cylinders and the four containers to rotate 180° synchronously, simultaneously flipping and demolding the tofu inside all four containers. This improves the tofu flipping efficiency, automates the operation, and saves manpower. Subsequently, the controller retracts the piston rods of the electric cylinders a certain distance, causing the piston rods to pull the top plate and the tofu container to fall out. The tofu on the top plate descends, causing the tofu inside the box to detach. After the box flips over, slide 2 and slide 3 on the frame platform are at the same height. Then, support frame 2 is moved from slide 2 to slide 3 via the pulleys at the bottom, making it easy to collect the tofu on the top plate. The two support frames move in their respective slides via pulleys, allowing the box and electric cylinder assembly to be easily pushed into the working position or pulled out for loading and unloading. The operation is convenient. The four electric cylinders rotate 180° clockwise with the turntable, and then the servo motor drives the turntable to rotate 180° counterclockwise and return along the original trajectory. Therefore, the cables of the four electric cylinders will not get tangled.

[0012] In summary, the beneficial effects of this application are as follows:

[0013] 1. The device is equipped with a turntable driven by a servo motor on the frame. The electric cylinder and the top plate hold the tofu in the four boxes respectively. When the turntable rotates, it drives the electric cylinder and the four boxes to rotate 180° synchronously, thereby flipping and demolding the tofu in the four boxes at the same time, improving the tofu flipping efficiency, realizing automated operation, and saving manpower.

[0014] 2. The device is equipped with slide groove one and slide groove two on the turntable. The two support frames move in the corresponding slide grooves through pulleys, so that the box and electric cylinder assembly can be easily pushed into the working position or pulled out for loading and unloading, which is convenient to operate.

Detailed Implementation

[0024] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the technical solutions in this application, the technical solutions in the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0025] As can be seen from the above technical solutions, see [link / reference]. Figures 1-6 .

[0026] Example 1:

[0027] A tofu processing turning device includes: a frame 1, with a frame on each side of the frame 1, and a turntable 2 mounted on each frame. A bearing seat 20 is located in the center of the turntable 2, and a support column 19 is mounted at each end of the bearing seat 20. The two support columns 19 are welded to the bottom side wall of the frame, supporting the rotation of the turntable 2. An auxiliary roller 9 is mounted on the top and bottom inner walls of each frame, closely attached to the outer side of the turntable 2 to support its stable rotation. A retaining ring 16 is welded to the inner walls on both sides of each frame, movably engaging with the side wall of the turntable 2, providing limiting support for the turntable 2 to rotate stably within the frame. A cross 7 is welded to each turntable 2, and a servo motor 8 is connected to the center of the cross 7 of one turntable 2. A controller 22 controls the servo motor 8 to start. 8 drives the turntable 2 to rotate 180° in both directions. Each turntable 2 has parallel welded groove 3 and groove 4. A support frame 5 is mounted on groove 3, and a support frame 6 is mounted on groove 4. Support frame 5 has two slots 18, each holding one of four boxes 10. Each box 10 contains formed tofu, and a top plate 13 is placed on top of the tofu in each box 10. Four electric cylinders 11 are vertically mounted on support frame 26, each corresponding to the center of a box 10. A controller 22 controls the piston rods of the four electric cylinders 11 to extend. The disc 12 at the top of the piston rod of each electric cylinder 11 contacts the top plate 13 inside the box 10. Each disc 12 is equipped with a pressure sensor, which monitors the pressure exerted by the disc 12 on the tofu under the top plate 13 inside the box 10 in real time and transmits the pressure signal to the controller 22.When the pressure reaches the preset safety threshold (which is far below the force required to crush the tofu), the controller 22 stops the extension of the electric cylinder 11, ensuring that the disc 12 at the top of the piston rod of the electric cylinder 11 contacts the top plate 13 with a safe force and supports the tofu, avoiding excessive force that could damage the tofu. After all four electric cylinders 11 have extended to the appropriate position, the worker then controls the servo motor 8 to start via the controller 22. The servo motor 8 drives the turntable 2 to rotate 180° clockwise, causing the two support frames and the tofu box 10 to flip, utilizing the rotation of the turntable 2 to... The electric cylinder 11 rotates 180° synchronously with the four boxes 10, thereby simultaneously flipping and demolding the tofu inside the four boxes 10, improving the tofu flipping efficiency, realizing automated operation, and saving manpower. The four electric cylinders 11 rotate 180° clockwise with the turntable 2, and then the servo motor 8 drives the turntable 2 to rotate 180° counterclockwise to return to the original trajectory. Therefore, the cables of the four electric cylinders 11 will not get tangled. After flipping, the second support frame 6 and the electric cylinders 11 are located below the first support frame 5 and the boxes 10. Then, the controller 22 controls the piston rod of the electric cylinder 11. After retracting a certain distance, the piston rod drives the top plate 13 and the tofu that has fallen onto the top plate 13 to descend, thereby causing the tofu inside the box 10 to detach. Each frame sidewall extends into a platform, and each platform is equipped with a slide rail 3 14. The height of slide rail 3 14 is equal to the height of the horizontally connected slide rail 1 3 and slide rail 2 4. When the two turntables 2 drive the support frame 1 5 on slide rail 1 3 and the four boxes 10, as well as the support frame 2 6 on slide rail 2 4 and the four electric cylinders 11 to rotate 180°, that is, when slide rail 2 4 and slide rail 3 14 on the platform of the frame 1 are in a position... At the same height, support frame 26 is moved from chute 24 to chute 34 via pulley 21 at the bottom, facilitating the collection of tofu from the top plate 13. The two support frames move within their respective chute via pulley 21, allowing the box 10 and electric cylinder 11 assembly to be easily pushed into or pulled out for loading and unloading. This facilitates operation. After the operator removes the top plate 13 and the tofu on it, support frame 26 is manually retracted. Controller 22 controls servo motor 8 to reverse 180°, causing turntable 2 to rotate back along its original trajectory.

[0028] A controller 22 is installed on the side wall of a frame. The servo motor 8 and four electric cylinders 11 are electrically connected to the controller 22. The controller 22 controls the working status of the servo motor 8 and the four electric cylinders 11. The controller 22 is preferably a standard PLC from Junchuang Automation Technology Co., Ltd., model JS-68T-D.

[0029] In a preferred embodiment, a disc 12 is welded to the top of the piston rod of each electric cylinder 11, and the disc 12 increases the contact area between the piston rod and the top plate 13.

[0030] In a preferred embodiment, two pulleys 21 are installed at both ends of the bottom of the support frame 5, and two pulleys 21 are installed at both ends of the top and bottom of the support frame 6. Each pulley 21 is installed in a corresponding groove, and the pulleys 21 on each support frame facilitate the stable movement of the support frame in the corresponding groove.

[0031] In a preferred embodiment, a platform 17 is provided on the frame corresponding to the position of the retaining ring 16, and a positioning plate is provided on the side wall of the turntable 2 relative to the platform 17. When the turntable 2 rotates 180°, the positioning plate will rotate with the turntable 2 and stick to the platform 17, thereby restricting the rotation of the turntable 2 and keeping the box 10 in a horizontal position, so as to facilitate the horizontal docking of the first slide 3 and the second slide 4 with the upper slide.

[0032] In a preferred embodiment, both slide 3 and slide 4 are provided with a groove at the same end, and each groove is provided with a locking plate 15. Before the two support frames rotate with the turntable 2, the operator will lock the two locking plates 15 into the groove respectively to prevent the two support frames from sliding out of the slide 2 during the rotation of the turntable 2.

[0033] In a preferred embodiment, the controller 22 is provided with several operation buttons. The round button is used to control the on / off state of the servo motor 8 and the electric cylinder 11, and the square button is used to set the pressure threshold for the pressure sensor to monitor the extension and downward pressure of the electric cylinder 11 and the shrinkage distance of the electric cylinder 11 to drive the top plate 13 to descend and demold the tofu.

[0034] Working principle:

[0035] The device uses a controller 22 to control the piston rods of four electric cylinders 11 to extend. The disc 12 at the top of the piston rod of each electric cylinder 11 contacts the top plate 13 inside the box 10. After all four electric cylinders 11 are against the top plate 13, the operator controls the servo motor 8 to start via the controller 22. The servo motor 8 drives the turntable 2 to rotate 180° clockwise, causing the two support frames and the tofu box 10 to flip. The rotation of the turntable 2 drives the electric cylinders 11 and the four boxes 10 to rotate synchronously by 180°, thereby simultaneously processing the tofu inside the four boxes 10. After flipping and demolding, the second support frame 6 and the electric cylinder 11 are located below the first support frame 5 and the box body 10. Then, the controller 22 controls the piston rod of the electric cylinder 11 to retract a certain distance. The piston rod drives the top plate 13 and the tofu that has fallen on the top plate 13 to descend, thereby causing the tofu in the box body 10 to come out. After the box body 10 is flipped, the second slide 4 and the third slide 14 on the frame body 1 are at the same height. Then, the second support frame 6 is moved from the second slide 4 to the third slide 14 through the bottom pulley 21 to collect the tofu on the top plate 13.
