Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of food processing, and in particular to a reciprocating pusher type food sugar-sprinkling machine. Background Technology
[0002] In food processing operations such as pastry, snack food, and catering production, evenly sprinkling sugar on the surface of food is a common process to improve the appearance and taste of food. Currently, sugar sprinkling is mainly done manually or with simple mechanical devices. Manual sugar sprinkling suffers from problems such as high labor intensity, poor uniformity, difficulty in controlling measurement, and challenges in hygiene management, making it difficult to meet the requirements of large-scale, standardized production. Traditional mechanical sugar sprinkling devices typically use gravity feeding or simple vibration feeding, which makes it difficult to precisely control the feeding amount and speed, easily leading to uneven feeding, local accumulation, or excessive feeding at one time. Furthermore, it is prone to clogging with fine powdery or moist sugars that easily clump, requiring frequent maintenance and cleaning, thus affecting production continuity.
[0003] In addition, the existing devices and conveying mechanisms are not well coordinated. For example, the discharge height is often fixed and cannot be adjusted for conveyed materials of different specifications or heights, resulting in inaccurate sugar application or uneven coverage. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a reciprocating pusher type food sugar-spreading machine. Utility Model Content
[0004] In order to overcome the shortcomings of the existing technology, this utility model provides a reciprocating pusher type food sugar sprinkling machine.
[0005] The technical solution adopted by this utility model to solve its technical problem is:
[0006] This utility model provides a reciprocating pusher type food sugar-sprinkling machine, including a frame, on which a conveying mechanism and a sugar-sprinkling mechanism are provided. The conveying mechanism is used to convey food to be sprinkled with sugar from the outside. The sugar-sprinkling mechanism includes a transfer component, on which a first trough and a second trough are provided. The first trough and the second trough are connected. The second trough is used for external sugar to flow into the first trough. A discharge hopper is movably provided on the transfer component, which is used to adjust the falling position of the sugar relative to the external food to be sprinkled with sugar. The sugar-sprinkling mechanism also includes a rod and a driving component for driving the rod to reciprocate. The rod is housed in the first trough. External sugar falls into the first trough through the second trough. When the rod pushes out the sugar in the first trough, the sugar in the second trough is stopped by the side wall of the rod and will not fall. After the rod pushes out the sugar and resets, the sugar in the second trough falls into the first trough.
[0007] Preferably, the outer surface of the rod is attached to the inner surface of the first groove, and the length of the rod is not less than the length of the first groove. The tight fit of the surfaces forms a sealing structure to prevent sugar leakage. The matching length ensures that the rod can completely push the sugar out of the first groove, thereby achieving precise control and reliable sugar dispensing.
[0008] Preferably, the transfer unit is provided with a discharge hopper, which is located at the end of the first groove for discharging material. A fourth groove is provided on the side of the discharge hopper near the transfer unit. The fourth groove is used to limit the discharge hopper to be placed on the transfer unit. The connection between the fourth groove and the transfer unit realizes the stable installation of the discharge hopper, provides a fixed channel for the sugar to fall, and avoids the discharge hopper from shifting and affecting the sugar sprinkling position.
[0009] Preferably, the fourth groove is a strip extending in the vertical direction. The fourth groove is used for external bolts to pass through, so that the discharge hopper can be adjusted up and down relative to the transfer component. The cooperation between the strip groove and the bolts allows the discharge hopper to be adjusted up and down relative to the transfer component, so as to achieve precise control of the sugar falling position and adapt to the sugar sprinkling needs of foods of different heights.
[0010] Preferably, the discharge hopper includes a hopper body portion near the first trough and a discharge portion away from the first trough. The hopper body portion is arranged in a rectangular frame, and the discharge portion is arranged in a circular frame. The hopper body portion and the discharge portion are integrally injection molded. The rectangular frame hopper body portion matches the shape of the discharge end of the first trough to ensure smooth transition of sugar, and the circular frame discharge portion reduces the resistance of sugar falling. The integrally molded structure enhances the strength and sealing of the discharge hopper and prevents sugar leakage.
[0011] Preferably, the length direction of the second trough is intersected with the length direction of the first trough. The transfer component is also provided with a third trough, which is located on the side of the second trough away from the first trough. The size of the third trough gradually increases from the end closer to the second trough to the end farther away from the second trough to facilitate feeding. The cross-direction design optimizes the sugar flow path. The gradual size of the third trough facilitates the smooth flow of sugar from the hopper through the third trough and the second trough into the first trough, thereby improving feeding efficiency.
[0012] Preferably, the transfer unit is equipped with a hopper for holding external sugar. The second tank is connected to the internal space of the hopper via a third tank. The hopper, as a sugar storage container, ensures a continuous and stable supply of sugar to the first tank through the connecting structure, avoiding interruptions during the sugar dispensing process.
[0013] Preferably, the frame includes support legs and a first plate on the support legs. A conveying mechanism is located on the first plate. The conveying mechanism is used to convey external objects to be sprinkled with sugar. The support legs provide vertical support. The first plate serves as an installation platform to provide a stable foundation for the overall structure. The conveying mechanism enables the automated conveying of the objects to be sprinkled with sugar.
[0014] Preferably, the conveying mechanism includes two conveyor belts, which are respectively located at both ends of the first plate in the width direction. Rollers are provided at both ends of the conveyor belts in the length direction. The conveyor belts are rotated on the first plate via the rollers. The rollers protrude from the first plate. The first plate is provided with clearance grooves for the protrusion of the rollers. The dual conveyor belt design realizes the smooth conveying of objects. The roller protrusions and clearance grooves cooperate to avoid motion interference and ensure smooth conveying.
[0015] Preferably, the support leg is provided with a stop part. The stop part is used to support the first plate in the vertical direction and limit the first plate at both ends in the width direction of the first plate. The stop part and the first plate are fixed and limited by external bolts. The double limiting effect of the stop part enhances the structural stability of the frame. The bolt fixing ensures reliable connection and prevents the first plate from shifting.
[0016] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: Through the above-mentioned structural design, during use, the conveying mechanism on the frame enables automated conveying of food to be sprinkled with sugar from the outside. The first trough and the second trough of the transfer component in the sugar-sprinkling mechanism are connected. The second trough is used for external sugar to flow into the first trough. The discharge hopper, which is movably set on the transfer component, enables flexible adjustment of the sugar's falling position. At the same time, the sugar-sprinkling mechanism drives the rod to reciprocate in the first trough through the drive component. When the rod pushes out the sugar in the first trough, its side wall stops the sugar in the second trough from falling. After the rod returns to its original position, the sugar in the second trough falls into the first trough, realizing intermittent quantitative sprinkling of sugar. The whole system achieves precise position control, uniform sugar distribution, and automated operation of the sugar-sprinkling process through the coordinated action of various components, improving the sugar-sprinkling efficiency and the stability of product quality.

[0028] Reference Figures 1 to 7 An automatic sugar-sprinkling structure for food includes a frame 1, on which a conveying mechanism 2 and a sugar-sprinkling mechanism 3 are mounted. The conveying mechanism 2 is used to transport food to be sprinkled with sugar from the outside. The sugar-sprinkling mechanism 3 includes a transfer component 31, on which a first trough 311 and a second trough 312 are provided. The first trough 311 and the second trough 312 are connected. The second trough 312 is used for external sugar to flow into the first trough 311. A discharge hopper 35 is movably mounted on the transfer component 31, and the discharge hopper 35 is used to adjust the relative position of the sugar to the food to be sprinkled. The falling position of the sugar-sprinkling food; the sugar-sprinkling mechanism 3 also includes a rod 34 and a drive member 33 for driving the rod 34 to reciprocate. The rod 34 is housed in the first groove 311. External sugar falls into the first groove 311 through the second groove 312. When the rod 34 pushes out the sugar in the first groove 311, the sugar in the second groove 312 is stopped by the side wall of the rod 34 and will not fall. After the rod 34 pushes out the sugar and resets, the sugar in the second groove 312 falls into the first groove 311.
[0029] With the above structural setup, during use, the conveying mechanism 2 on the frame 1 enables automated conveying of food to be sprinkled with sugar from the outside. The first trough 311 of the transfer component 31 in the sugar-sprinkling mechanism 3 is connected to the second trough 312. The second trough 312 is used for external sugar to flow into the first trough 311. The discharge hopper 35, which is movably set on the transfer component 31, enables flexible adjustment of the sugar's falling position. At the same time, the sugar-sprinkling mechanism 3 drives the rod 34 to reciprocate in the first trough 311 through the drive component 33. When the rod 34 pushes out the sugar in the first trough 311, its side wall stops the sugar in the second trough 312 from falling. After the rod 34 resets, the sugar in the second trough 312 falls into the first trough 311, realizing intermittent quantitative sprinkling of sugar. The whole system achieves precise position control, uniform sugar distribution, and automated operation of the food sugar-sprinkling process through the coordinated action of various components, improving sugar-sprinkling efficiency and product quality stability.
[0030] Specifically, the outer surface of the rod 34 is attached to the inner surface of the first groove 311, and the length of the rod 34 is not less than the length of the first groove 311. The tight fit of the surfaces forms a sealing structure to prevent sugar leakage. The matching length ensures that the rod 34 can completely push out the sugar in the first groove 311, thereby achieving precise control and reliable guarantee of quantitative sugar dispensing.

A fourth groove 351 is opened on the side of the discharge hopper 35 near the transfer unit 31. The fourth groove 351 is used to limit the discharge hopper 35 to be set on the transfer unit 31. The connection between the fourth groove 351 and the transfer unit 31 realizes the stable installation of the discharge hopper 35, provides a fixed channel for the sugar to fall, and avoids the discharge hopper 35 from shifting and affecting the sugar sprinkling position.
[0033] Specifically, the fourth groove 351 is a strip extending in the vertical direction. The fourth groove 351 is used for external bolts to pass through, so that the discharge hopper 35 can be adjusted up and down relative to the transfer member 31.

The hopper body is rectangular and the discharge part is circular. The hopper body and the discharge part are integrally injection molded. The rectangular hopper body matches the shape of the discharge end of the first trough 311 to ensure smooth sugar transfer. The circular discharge part reduces the resistance of sugar falling. The integrally molded structure enhances the strength and sealing of the discharge hopper 35 and prevents sugar leakage.
[0036] Specifically, the length direction of the second trough 312 intersects the length direction of the first trough 311. The transfer component 31 is also provided with a third trough 313, which is located on the side of the second trough 312 away from the first trough 311. The size of the third trough 313 gradually increases from the end closer to the second trough 312 to the end away from the second trough 312 to facilitate feeding. The cross-direction design optimizes the sugar flow path. The gradual size of the third trough 313 facilitates the smooth flow of sugar from the hopper 32 through the third trough 313 and the second trough 312 into the first trough 311, thereby improving feeding efficiency.
