Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of food processing technology, and in particular to a bread forming production line. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, in the production process of bread and other flour-based foods, most small and medium-sized production lines are still mainly semi-automatic or manually operated, which mainly include multiple processes such as dough pressing, rolling, dividing, rolling and cutting.

[0003] Existing bread forming production lines typically use several coaxial or simply parallel dough rollers to shape and control the thickness of the dough. Traditional dough rollers are mostly single-diameter and continuously pressing, or simply adjust the gap to change the pressing intensity, but they still have shortcomings in actual production:

[0004] During the overall pressing process, the dough is prone to uneven force, excessive flattening of the surface, and squeezing or rupturing of internal air bubbles, resulting in a coarse bread texture and poor elasticity. Insufficient ability to guide the dough laterally and control the force in segments during the pressing process leads to unstable feeding and inconsistent thickness in the subsequent rolling, dividing, and rolling stages, affecting the consistency of shaping and appearance. Utility Model Content

[0005] In view of the above-mentioned or existing technologies, the dough is prone to uneven force during the overall pressing process, excessive flattening of the surface and squeezing or rupture of internal air bubbles, resulting in a coarse bread texture and poor elasticity. The dough has insufficient ability to guide the dough laterally and control the force in segments during the pressing process, which causes unstable feeding and inconsistent thickness in the subsequent rolling, dividing and rolling stages, affecting the consistency of shaping and appearance. It is impossible to simultaneously take into account the problem of surface flatness and internal air permeability during the pressing stage. Therefore, this utility model is proposed.

[0006] Therefore, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a bread forming production line.

[0007] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model provides the following technical solution:

[0008] A bread forming production line includes a feeder at the beginning of the production line, a dough press at the discharge end of the feeder, a dough rolling machine at the discharge end of the dough press, a dough divider at the discharge end of the dough rolling machine, a dough rolling machine at the discharge end of the dough divider, a dough cutting machine at the discharge end of the dough rolling machine, and a tray stacking machine at the discharge end of the dough cutting machine.

[0009] The dough press machine includes a dough press support frame and a first dough press roller and a second dough press roller disposed inside the dough press support frame. There are two first dough press rollers arranged vertically at intervals, and three second dough press rollers arranged in an L-shape. The second dough press rollers are disposed at the rear end of the first dough press rollers in the conveying direction.

[0010] In a preferred embodiment of the bread forming production line of this utility model, the first pressing roller is disposed at the discharge end of the feeder, and the lower first pressing roller and the lower second pressing roller are both flush with the feeder.

[0011] As a preferred embodiment of the bread forming production line of this utility model, the outer surface of the second pressing roller has axial protrusions, and multiple axial protrusions are provided and distributed symmetrically along the axis.

[0012] As a preferred embodiment of the bread forming production line of this utility model, wherein: conveyor rollers are provided between adjacent parts of the feeder, dough press, dough rolling machine, dough divider, dough rolling machine, dough cutting machine and tray arranging machine.

[0013] In a preferred embodiment of the bread forming production line of this utility model, both the discharge end of the dough press and the feed end of the dough rolling machine are provided with guide plates, the guide plates are inclined, and the end of the guide plate of the dough press is higher than the end of the guide plate of the dough rolling machine.

[0014] As a preferred embodiment of the bread forming production line of this utility model, the dough cutting machine includes a dough cutting support frame, a cutting blade that is vertically telescopically disposed at the top of the dough cutting support frame, and a protective cylinder disposed below the cutting blade. Two protective cylinders are provided and distributed on both sides of the cutting blade.

[0015] As a preferred embodiment of the bread forming production line of this utility model, the cutting blade is provided with a guide cylinder at its feeding front end, and two sets of guide cylinders are provided and distributed symmetrically in the transverse direction.

[0016] As a preferred embodiment of the bread forming production line of this utility model, the inner bottom of the cutting support frame is provided with a first mounting seat connected to the protective cylinder and a second mounting seat connected to the guide cylinder. The protective cylinder and the first mounting seat are slidably connected, and the guide cylinder and the second mounting seat are slidably connected.

[0017] The beneficial effects of this bread forming production line are as follows:

[0018] The vertical spacing of the first pressing roller and the L-shaped segmented layout of the second pressing roller at the rear end ensure that the dough is not flattened all at once when passing through the pressing area, but is gradually thinned in stages and gradients. This allows the air bubbles inside to be gradually released and rearranged, rather than bursting under a single strong pressure, thus maintaining a certain degree of extensibility in the dough, which is beneficial for subsequent fermentation and expansion and improves the uniformity of bread texture and elasticity.

[0019] The L-shaped second pressing roller provides micro-guidance to the dough in the horizontal and vertical directions while pressing, helping the dough maintain its central position and shape stability in the conveying direction. This reduces the probability of the dough shifting when it is conveyed to the rolling and dividing machine, thereby improving the thickness consistency and forming rate of the dough during rolling and dividing.

[0020] The axial protrusions on the outer surface of the second pressing roller increase the friction when in contact with the dough, which helps to prevent the dough from slipping between the rollers and improve the uniformity of the pressing. At the same time, the spacing of these axial protrusions can form micro-channels or flow paths during the pressing process, so that the residual gas inside the dough can slowly migrate along these paths instead of being squeezed out completely, thereby improving the dough's ability to retain gas and expand.

[0027] To make the above-mentioned objectives, features and advantages of this utility model more apparent and understandable, the specific embodiments of this utility model will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0028] Many specific details are set forth in the following description in order to provide a full understanding of the present invention. However, the present invention may also be implemented in other ways different from those described herein. Those skilled in the art can make similar extensions without departing from the spirit of the present invention. Therefore, the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.

[0029] Secondly, the term "an embodiment" or "embodiment" as used herein refers to a specific feature, structure, or characteristic that may be included in at least one implementation of the present invention. The phrase "in one embodiment" appearing in different places in this specification does not necessarily refer to the same embodiment, nor is it a single or selective embodiment that excludes other embodiments.

[0030] Example

[0031] Reference Figures 1 to 4 This is the first embodiment of the present invention. This embodiment provides a bread forming production line that can automatically complete the conveying, pressing, rolling, dividing, rolling, cutting and traying of dough, reducing the instability caused by manual operation and making the bread forming size more uniform.

[0032] Specifically, the system includes a feeder 1 at the beginning of the production line, a dough press 2 at the outlet of the feeder 1, a rolling mill 3 at the outlet of the dough press 2, a divider 4 at the outlet of the rolling mill 3, a rolling machine 5 at the outlet of the divider 4, a noodle cutter 6 at the outlet of the rolling machine 5, and a tray-forming machine 7 at the outlet of the noodle cutter 6. Conveyor rollers 8 are installed between adjacent feeder 1, dough press 2, rolling mill 3, divider 4, rolling machine 5, cutter 6, and tray-forming machine 7. By sequentially connecting these devices, a continuous and efficient automated production line can be formed. After entering from feeder 1, the dough undergoes processing through each step until it is tray-formed. The conveyor rollers 8 ensure smoother transitions between processes and prevent dough accumulation during transport.

[0033] Both the discharge end of the dough press 2 and the feed end of the dough rolling machine 3 are equipped with guide plates 9. The guide plates 9 are inclined, with the end of the guide plate 9 of the dough press 2 being higher than the end of the guide plate 9 of the dough rolling machine 3. This allows the dough to slide naturally into the feed inlet of the dough rolling machine 3 after leaving the dough press 2, avoiding the dough from falling due to height mismatch. The inclination angle of the guide plates 9 ensures a natural transition of the dough and reduces the damage to the dough structure caused by external force interference, thus achieving adaptive conveying of different doughs.

[0034] The dough press 2 includes a dough press support frame 10 and a first dough press roller 11 and a second dough press roller 12 disposed inside the dough press support frame 10. There are two first dough press rollers 11 arranged vertically at intervals, and three second dough press rollers 12 arranged in an L-shape. The second dough press rollers 12 are located at the rear end of the conveying direction of the first dough press rollers 11. With this roller arrangement, segmented pressing can be achieved during the thickness adjustment of the dough, making the internal air bubbles of the dough more evenly distributed, while maintaining a certain degree of extensibility and avoiding structural damage caused by excessive compression. The L-shaped second dough press rollers 12 can also provide preliminary guidance to the dough while pressing, which facilitates the precise feeding of the subsequent dough rolling machine 3 and further improves the flatness of the dough surface.

[0035] Furthermore, the first pressing roller 11 is located at the discharge end of the feeder 1. The lower first pressing roller 11 and the lower second pressing roller 12 are both flush with the feeder 1. The outer surface of the second pressing roller 12 has axial protrusions, and multiple axial protrusions are arranged and symmetrically distributed along the axis. This increases the friction between the dough and the second pressing roller 12, making the dough pressing more uniform. It can also form fine gas channels during the pressing process, ensuring the air permeability of the internal structure of the dough, which helps the gas diffusion and expansion in the subsequent fermentation stage.

[0036] The dough cutter 6 includes a dough cutting support frame 13, a cutter 14 that is telescopically mounted on the top of the dough cutting support frame 13, and a protective cylinder 15 located below the cutter 14. There are two protective cylinders 15, which are distributed on both sides of the cutter 14. The cutter 14 can move up and down through a cylinder or an electric push rod to meet the dough cutting requirements. The protective cylinder 15 can effectively prevent dough scraps from sticking together during cutting.

[0037] Preferably, the feed front end of the cutter 14 is provided with a guide cylinder 17. Two sets of guide cylinders 17 are arranged laterally symmetrically. The guide cylinders 17 can automatically orient the dough before it is fed into the cutter 14, preventing the dough from shifting or twisting during movement. The spacing of the guide cylinders 17 can be finely adjusted according to the size of the dough, thereby further ensuring cutting accuracy and forming quality. Through the double-set symmetrical arrangement, the dough can be limited and guided at the same time, ensuring that each piece of dough is in a stable position when it enters the cutter 14, thereby achieving a consistent cutting effect.

[0038] It should be noted that the inner bottom of the cutting support frame 13 is provided with a first mounting seat 16 connected to the protective cylinder 15 and a second mounting seat 18 connected to the guide cylinder 17. The protective cylinder 15 and the first mounting seat 16 are slidably connected, and the guide cylinder 17 and the second mounting seat 18 are slidably connected. The positions of the protective cylinder 15 and the guide cylinder 17 can be adjusted according to production needs to adapt to dough cutting tasks of different specifications.

[0039] When in use, the operator first feeds the kneaded dough into the production line through the feeder 1. The system automatically completes the pressing, rolling, dividing, rolling, cutting and traying processes in sequence. In the entire production process, this method can ensure that the size of each batch of products is consistent, improve the stability and continuity of the production line, and greatly enhance the safety and reliability of production.

[0040] In summary, the bread forming production line of this utility model has a reasonable structure and a high degree of automation, enabling continuous and standardized production of dough, significantly improving production efficiency and product consistency. Through multi-stage pressing and guiding, the dough is subjected to uniform force during transmission, avoiding the uneven thickness and surface cracking problems commonly found in traditional manual operations. It also has good hygiene performance and is easy to maintain.

[0041] It should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solution of this utility model and are not intended to limit it. Although this utility model has been described in detail with reference to preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications or equivalent substitutions can be made to the technical solution of this utility model without departing from the spirit and scope of the technical solution of this utility model, and all such modifications or substitutions should be covered within the scope of the claims of this utility model.
