Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of auxiliary material addition devices, specifically an auxiliary material addition device for baking food production. Background Technology
[0002] In the production of baked goods, it is often necessary to add various auxiliary ingredients, such as powdered sugar, milk powder, and food additives, in a specific order and proportion. Traditional or existing auxiliary ingredient adding devices are usually quite simple in structure, generally consisting of a fixed hopper or adding tank with a valve at the bottom to control the flow of auxiliary ingredients. This single-container design often requires operators to manually switch between different hoppers or perform multiple adding operations when multiple auxiliary ingredients need to be added. This is not only inefficient but also makes it difficult to ensure the accuracy of the order and timing of each addition, which can easily affect the stability and consistency of the product formula.
[0003] Furthermore, to prevent agglomeration and bridging of auxiliary materials inside the tank and to ensure smooth material flow, existing addition devices sometimes incorporate simple mechanical stirring components within the tank. However, when the device is equipped with multiple addition tanks to handle various auxiliary materials, each tank typically requires a separate drive mechanism (such as a motor) to operate its internal stirrer. This "one tank, one machine" approach has significant drawbacks: firstly, it increases the manufacturing cost and structural complexity of the equipment; secondly, the simultaneous operation of multiple drive components leads to higher energy consumption, noise, and potential maintenance points, reducing the overall reliability and economy of the equipment.
[0004] Therefore, the existing auxiliary material addition devices for baking food production have the following main shortcomings:
[0005] 1. Existing devices typically only allow the addition of one type of auxiliary material, or cannot achieve an automatic and orderly process for adding multiple auxiliary materials. They lack a mechanism to automatically add multiple auxiliary materials sequentially by controlling intermittent rotation to align different addition tanks with the discharge port.
[0006] 2. For equipment equipped with multiple addition tanks, when the stirring function is required, each addition tank often needs to be equipped with an independent drive component to drive its internal stirring component. It is impossible to drive the stirring components in all addition tanks simultaneously through a centralized drive component, resulting in a non-compact structure, high energy consumption, and complex control.
[0007] Therefore, in view of this, we have studied and improved the existing structure and proposed an auxiliary material addition device for baking food production. Utility Model Content
[0008] The technical problem this invention aims to solve is that it has a single function, cannot achieve the automated sequential addition of multiple auxiliary materials, has low stirring drive efficiency, and high cost.
[0009] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows: an auxiliary material addition device for baking food production, including an addition tank, an outlet is provided at the bottom of the addition tank, a plurality of addition tanks are provided, and the plurality of addition tanks are fixedly mounted on a frame plate, the frame plate is provided with a plurality of openings, and the openings are connected to the corresponding outlets, a plurality of stirring components are provided inside the addition tank, and a driving component is provided on the top of the frame plate to simultaneously drive the plurality of stirring components to rotate;
[0010] The bottom of the frame plate is rotatably mounted with a support plate via a bearing. The support plate has a through-hole, and a switch valve is installed inside the through-hole, with the opening connecting to the through-hole.
[0011] The bottom of the support plate is fixedly mounted on a base by several support rods, and a rotating component that drives the frame plate to rotate intermittently is mounted on the base.

[0015] As a further embodiment of this utility model: the rotating assembly includes an active dial and a driven grooved wheel rotatably disposed on the top of the base. The active dial is fixedly provided with a cylindrical pin and a locking arc on its top. The driven grooved wheel is provided with a plurality of radial grooves and a convex arc. The bottom of the base is fixedly provided with a second motor for driving the active dial to rotate.
[0016] During the motion phase: the cylindrical pin slides into the radial groove, driving the driven groove wheel to rotate, while at the same time, the locking arc separates from the convex arc;
[0017] Stationary period: The cylindrical pin disengages from the radial groove, the transmission stops, and at the same time, the locking arc and the convex arc immediately engage, locking the driven grooved wheel in the predetermined position.
[0018] As a further embodiment of this utility model: the top of the driven grooved wheel is fixedly connected to the frame plate via a connecting shaft, and the connecting shaft rotates through the support plate.
[0019] Compared with the prior art, the advantages of this utility model are as follows:
[0020] 1. This utility model, by setting up multiple feeding tanks and using a rotating assembly consisting of an active dial and a driven grooved wheel to drive the frame plate and the feeding tanks on it to rotate intermittently, allows different feeding tanks to be aligned sequentially and precisely with the discharge port below. This intermittent motion mechanism (movement period and stationary period) ensures that other workstations remain stable when one auxiliary material is added, thereby realizing the automated addition of multiple auxiliary materials in a preset order and workstation, effectively avoiding the errors, contamination, and inefficiency caused by manual switching, and greatly improving production efficiency and the accuracy of material dispensing.
[0021] 2. This utility model uses a single motor to drive a bevel gear, which in turn transmits power synchronously to the stirring rods of all the addition tanks via a transmission system consisting of a second bevel gear, a rotating rod, a third bevel gear, and a fourth bevel gear. This ingenious design uses a single drive assembly to simultaneously drive all the stirring components, eliminating the need for a separate motor for each addition tank. This not only greatly simplifies the equipment structure and reduces manufacturing costs and energy consumption, but also reduces potential points of failure, improving operational reliability and ease of maintenance.

[0029] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0030] Please see Figure 1-3A device for adding auxiliary materials in baking food production includes an addition tank 1. A receiving plate 101 is fixedly installed on the top of the addition tank 1. A cover 102 is hinged to both sides of the receiving plate 101 to facilitate the addition or replenishment of auxiliary materials into the tank. An outlet is provided at the bottom of the addition tank 1. Several addition tanks 1 are provided and fixedly installed on a frame plate 2. The frame plate 2 has openings that are equal in number and corresponding in position to the addition tanks 1. The outlet at the bottom of each addition tank 1 is connected to the corresponding opening to allow the auxiliary materials to flow out. To prevent the auxiliary materials from clumping in the addition tank 1, several stirring components 3 are provided in the addition tank 1. The stirring components 3 include a stirring rod 301 rotatably installed at the bottom of the receiving plate 101. Several stirring blades 302 are evenly distributed and fixedly installed around the stirring rod 301. The top of the frame plate 2 is provided with a drive assembly 4 that simultaneously drives several stirring components 3 to rotate. The drive assembly 4 includes a support rod 401 fixedly installed on the top of the frame plate 2, a motor 402 fixedly installed on the top of the support rod 401, a bevel gear 403 fixedly installed at one end of the output shaft of the motor 402, a support plate 404 fixedly installed on the top of the support plate 101, a rotating rod 405 rotatably passing through the support plate 404, a bevel gear 406 fixedly installed at one end of the rotating rod 405 and meshing with the bevel gear 403, a bevel gear 407 fixedly installed at the other end of the rotating rod 405, and a bevel gear 408 rotatably installed on the top of the support plate 101 to drive the stirring rod 301 to rotate, and the bevel gear 407 meshes with the bevel gear 408. A support plate 5 is rotatably mounted on the bottom of the frame plate 2 via a bearing. A discharge port 501 is provided through the support plate 5, and a switch valve (such as a solenoid valve or a pneumatic valve) is installed inside the discharge port 501, with its opening directly connected to the discharge port 501. When the frame plate 2 rotates, different feeding tanks 1 can sequentially align their bottom outlets with this fixed discharge port 501, thereby achieving timed feeding.
[0031] When the motor 402 is started, it drives the bevel gear 403 to rotate. All the bevel gears 406 meshing with it rotate accordingly, thereby driving each rotating rod 405 to rotate. The rotating rod 405 then drives the bevel gear 408 through the bevel gear 407, ultimately driving all the stirring rods 301 and stirring blades 302 added to the tank 1 to rotate synchronously, thus realizing the stirring function.
[0032] Please see Figure 1-4A base 6 is fixedly mounted on the bottom of the support plate 5 by several support rods 601 to ensure the stability of the entire device. A rotating assembly 7 is mounted on the base 6 to drive the frame plate 2 to rotate intermittently. The rotating assembly 7 includes an active dial 701 and a driven grooved wheel 702 rotatably mounted on the top of the base 6. A cylindrical pin 703 and a locking arc 704 are fixedly mounted on the top of the active dial 701. Several radial grooves 705 and convex arcs 706 are provided on the driven grooved wheel 702. A motor 707 for driving the active dial 701 to rotate is fixedly mounted on the bottom of the base 6. The top of the driven grooved wheel 702 is fixedly connected to the frame plate 2 through a connecting shaft, and the connecting shaft rotates through the support plate 5.
[0033] Its working process is divided into two periods:
[0034] During operation: The cylindrical pin 703 slides into the radial groove 705, driving the driven groove wheel 702 to rotate. Simultaneously, the locking arc 704 separates from the convex arc 706. The motor 2 707 drives the drive dial 701 to rotate at a constant speed. When the cylindrical pin 703 begins to enter a certain radial groove 705 of the driven groove wheel 702, the locking arc 704 separates from the convex arc 706. The cylindrical pin 703 slides within the radial groove 705, driving the driven groove wheel 702 (i.e., the support plate 2) to rotate 60 degrees.
[0035] During the stationary period: the cylindrical pin 703 disengages from the radial groove 705, the transmission stops, and simultaneously, the locking arc 704 and the convex arc 706 immediately engage, locking the driven grooved wheel 702 in the predetermined position. After the cylindrical pin 703 slides out of the radial groove 705, the locking arc 704 of the driving dial 701 immediately engages with the convex arc 706 of the driven grooved wheel 702, using the convex surface of the locking arc 704 to lock the wheel, ensuring the frame plate 2 is precisely positioned in the predetermined location. At this time, the outlet of one of the feeding tanks 1 aligns with the discharge port 501 on the support plate 5, allowing for material feeding. During this stationary period, the feeding tanks at other stations can be used for stirring or feeding operations.
[0036] The working principle of this utility model:
[0037] During operation, different auxiliary materials are added to each of the feeding tanks 1. Motor 402 is started, and all stirring components 3 operate continuously to prevent clumping. Simultaneously, motor 707 is started, driving the frame plate 2 to rotate intermittently via the Geneva wheel mechanism. Each time this occurs, a new feeding tank 1 rotates to above the discharge port 501, and the valve at that discharge port 501 is opened, allowing the corresponding auxiliary material to be added to the mixing equipment below. This cycle is repeated, achieving automated, sequential, and precise addition of multiple auxiliary materials.
[0038] The present invention and its embodiments have been described above. This description is not restrictive, and the accompanying drawings are only one embodiment of the present invention; the actual structure is not limited thereto. In conclusion, if those skilled in the art are inspired by this description and design similar structures and embodiments without departing from the inventive spirit of the present invention, such designs should fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
