Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of pasta processing, and in particular to a continuous noodle pressing machine. Background Technology

[0002] In the food industry, the production process of noodle sheets and noodle products such as dried noodles, instant noodles, and sour soup noodles typically involves: mixing flour and water to form dough flakes; feeding these flakes to the first rolling roller of a noodle press to form dough sheets; then feeding these sheets sequentially to subsequent continuous noodle presses to gradually roll them into strips of specified thickness. During this rolling process, the dough sheets become increasingly thinner, and are eventually cut into noodles and other products.

[0003] Continuous dough presses in related technologies typically include multiple pairs of pressure rollers, each pair rotating in opposite directions to roll the dough sheet. However, when the dough sheet has a high moisture content, it may stick to one of the pressure rollers, resulting in low rolling efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0004] To improve the efficiency of rolling, this application provides a continuous dough rolling machine.

[0005] The continuous dough pressing machine provided in this application adopts the following technical solution: A continuous dough pressing machine includes a machine body and multiple dough pressing mechanisms fixed on the machine body. Each dough pressing mechanism includes two support plates, and two pressure rollers are rotatably connected between the two support plates. A drive motor for driving one of the pressure rollers is mounted on one of the support plates. Each pressure roller has a scraping mechanism on one side for scraping the pressure roller. The scraping mechanism includes a rotating shaft rotatably connected between the two support plates. A scraper for abutting against the side wall of the pressure roller is fixedly connected to the rotating shaft. A locking member for locking the rotating shaft is connected to one end of the rotating shaft.

[0006] By adopting the above technical solution, the dough sheet passes through each pressing mechanism in sequence. In the pressing mechanism, the drive motor drives two pressure rollers to rotate, thereby rolling the dough sheet. When the dough sheet adheres to the pressure roller, the scraper is adjusted to contact the pressure roller by rotating the shaft. After adjustment, the shaft is locked using a locking device. During the rotation of the pressure roller, the scraper, which contacts the side wall of the pressure roller, can scrape off the dough sheet and other impurities adhering to the roller. At the same time, dry flour is sprinkled on the dough sheet with high moisture content. At this time, the dough sheet rolling work can continue, resulting in high efficiency in dough sheet rolling.

[0007] Preferably, one end of the rotating shaft passes through one of the support plates and is coaxially fixed with a gear one. A connecting shaft is rotatably connected to one of the support plates. A gear two that meshes with gear one is coaxially fixed on the connecting shaft. An adjusting wheel is fixedly connected to one end of the connecting shaft. The number of teeth of gear one is greater than the number of teeth of gear two.

[0008] By adopting the above technical solution, the continuous dough press can drive the connecting shaft and gear two to rotate through the adjusting wheel. The meshing transmission of gear one and gear two causes the rotating shaft to rotate, thereby adjusting the contact state between the scraper and the pressure roller. Since the number of teeth of gear one is greater than the number of teeth of gear two, it can achieve the effect of increasing torque and reducing speed, making it easier to adjust the scraper position more accurately.

[0009] Preferably, the locking element includes a locking rod that passes through the gear and is threadedly connected to the gear, with one end of the locking rod abutting against the sidewall of the adjacent support plate.

[0010] By adopting the above technical solution, the locking rod and gear one are connected by a thread and pressed against the side wall of the support plate, gear one can be effectively locked, thereby locking the rotating shaft and ensuring that the scraper stably contacts the pressure roller to perform scraping work.

[0011] Preferably, an elastic block is fixedly connected to the end of the coupling away from the adjusting wheel, and the elastic block abuts against one side wall of the adjacent support plate.

[0012] By adopting the above technical solution, the elastic block at the end of the coupling abuts against the side wall of the support plate, which can further enhance the stability of the coupling after adjusting the position of the scraper, reduce the shaking of the coupling, and ensure the scraping effect of the scraper on the pressure roller.

[0013] Preferably, the scraper is made of an elastic material.

[0014] By adopting the above technical solution, the scraper can better fit the side wall of the pressure roller, improve the scraping effect, and at the same time reduce damage to the pressure roller.

[0015] Preferably, each of the pressing mechanisms is connected to a guide mechanism, which includes guide plates connected to one side of the two support plates that are close to each other, and a control component that drives the two guide plates to move toward each other or away from each other.

[0016] By adopting the above technical solution, a guiding mechanism is set on each pressing mechanism of the continuous dough press. The guide plate is connected to the side of the two support plates that are close to each other, which can guide the movement of the dough sheet between the pressure rollers, ensuring that the dough sheet can accurately enter between the pressure rollers for pressing, thereby improving the accuracy and stability of pressing. At the same time, the control component can drive the two guide plates to move towards or away from each other, and the distance between the two guide plates can be flexibly adjusted according to the actual needs such as the width and thickness of different dough sheets, enhancing the versatility and adaptability of the continuous dough press, enabling it to meet the processing requirements of various specifications of dough sheets.

[0017] Preferably, each of the support plates is provided with a cavity, the control component includes a connecting frame fixedly connected to each guide plate, a bidirectional lead screw is rotatably connected between the two support plates, each end of the bidirectional lead screw extends into the cavity of the corresponding support plate, each connecting frame extends into the adjacent cavity and is threadedly connected to one end of the bidirectional lead screw, and a handwheel is coaxially fixedly connected to one end of the bidirectional lead screw.

[0018] By adopting the above technical solution, turning the handwheel can drive the bidirectional lead screw to rotate. The rotation of the bidirectional lead screw causes the connecting frame connected to it to move in the cavity of the support plate. Since the threads at both ends of the bidirectional lead screw rotate in opposite directions, it can drive the two guide plates to move towards or away from each other, thereby realizing the adjustment of the distance between the guide plates.

[0019] Preferably, one of the support plates is equipped with a distance measuring sensor for detecting sheet breakage.

[0020] By adopting the above technical solution and installing a distance measuring sensor on the support plate, the breakage of the dough sheet can be detected in time, which facilitates timely handling by the operator and ensures the normal operation of the continuous dough press.

[0021] In summary, this application includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects: 1. It can scrape off impurities such as dough pieces adhering to the pressure roller, resulting in high efficiency in dough sheet calendering; 2. It can guide the movement of the sheet between the pressure rollers; 3. It can drive two guide plates to move towards or away from each other, thereby adjusting the distance between the guide plates.

[0027] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figures 1-4 This application will be described in further detail.

[0028] This application discloses a continuous dough sheeting machine. (Refer to...) Figure 1 and Figure 2 The continuous dough press machine includes a machine body 1 and multiple dough pressing mechanisms 2 fixed on the machine body 1. The multiple dough pressing mechanisms 2 are arranged along the length of the machine body 1, which can realize continuous dough pressing and improve the efficiency and continuity of dough pressing.

[0029] Each dough pressing mechanism 2 includes two support plates 21, which are typically made of metal, such as stainless steel, offering good strength and corrosion resistance. Each support plate 21 is fixed to the machine body 1 by welding or bolting. Two pressure rollers 22 are rotatably connected between the two support plates 21. The pressure rollers 22 are generally cylindrical, made of metal, and have a smooth surface to facilitate the extrusion and passage of the dough. A drive motor is fixedly connected to one of the support plates 21, and the output shaft of the drive motor is coaxially fixed with one of the pressure rollers 22.

[0030] When the drive motor starts, it drives a pressure roller 22 to rotate, thereby squeezing the sheet and completing the stretching of the sheet.

[0031] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 3 Each pressure roller 22 is provided with a scraping mechanism 3 on one side to scrape off the surface of the pressure roller 22. The scraping mechanism 3 can clean the dough pieces adhering to the surface of the pressure roller 22 to ensure the pressing effect.

[0032] Each scraping mechanism 3 includes a rotating shaft 31 rotatably connected between two support plates 21. The rotating shaft 31 is typically a metal shaft, with both ends rotatably connected to the support plates 21 via bearings. A scraper 32 for abutting against the side wall of the pressure roller 22 is fixedly connected to the rotating shaft 31. The scraper 32 is made of an elastic material, such as a rubber scraper 32, which has good flexibility and wear resistance. Rotating the scraper 32 towards the pressure roller 22 adjusts the tightness of the scraper 32 against the pressure roller 22, while rotating the scraper 32 away from the pressure roller 22 adjusts the scraper 32 to disengage from the pressure roller 22.

[0033] One end of the rotating shaft 31 is connected to a locking element that locks the rotating shaft 31. The function of the locking element is to fix the position of the rotating shaft 31 so that when it is necessary to scrape the pressure roller 22, the scraper 32 can stably abut against the pressure roller 22.

[0034] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 3One end of the rotating shaft 31 passes through one of the support plates 21 and is coaxially fixed with a gear 33. A connecting shaft 34, also a metal shaft, is rotatably connected to one of the support plates 21 via bearings. A gear 35, which meshes with gear 33, is coaxially fixed on the connecting shaft 34. Gear 35 and gear 33 cooperate with each other. When the connecting shaft 34 rotates, it drives gear 33 to rotate through gear transmission, thereby causing the rotating shaft 31 to rotate and adjusting the position of the scraper 32.

[0035] One end of the coupling 34 is fixedly connected to an adjusting wheel 36, which can be a circular handwheel 423, allowing the operator to manually rotate the coupling 34. The number of teeth on gear one 33 is greater than the number of teeth on gear two 35, thus achieving a speed reduction effect.

[0036] The locking element includes a locking rod 37 that passes through and is threadedly connected to the gear 33. The locking rod 37 is a metal rod with threads on its surface. One end of the locking rod 37 abuts against the side wall of the adjacent support plate 21.

[0037] When the locking lever 37 is rotated to press against the support plate 21, the gear 33 can be fixed, thereby locking the position of the rotating shaft 31.

[0038] Each support plate 21 is a hollow structure with a cavity inside. The end of the connecting shaft 34 away from the adjusting wheel 36 extends into the corresponding cavity and is fixedly connected to an elastic block 38. The elastic block 38 can be a rubber block, which abuts against an inner sidewall of the cavity. The elastic block 38 serves to buffer and increase friction, making the connecting shaft 34 more stable during rotation.

[0039] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 4 Each pressing mechanism 2 is connected to a guide mechanism 4, which can guide the direction of the dough sheet so that the dough sheet enters the pressing rollers 22 more accurately.

[0040] The guiding mechanism 4 includes guide plates 41 that are respectively connected to the side of the two support plates 21 that are close to each other. The side of the two guide plates 41 that are close to each other is a smooth surface. It also includes a control component 42 that drives the two guide plates 41 to move towards each other or away from each other.

[0041] The control assembly 42 includes a connecting frame 421 fixedly connected to each guide plate 41. The connecting frame 421 is made of metal, passes through the support plate 21 and extends into the corresponding cavity, and is laterally slidably connected to the support plate 21.

[0042] A bidirectional lead screw 422 is rotatably connected between the two support plates 21. The bidirectional lead screw 422 is a lead screw with positive and negative threads, made of metal, and its two ends are rotatably connected to the support plates 21 through bearings. Each end of the bidirectional lead screw 422 extends into the cavity of the corresponding support plate 21 and is threadedly connected to the corresponding connecting frame 421. One end of the bidirectional lead screw 422 passes through the support plate 21 and is coaxially fixedly connected to a handwheel 423.

[0043] When the handwheel 423 is turned, the double-acting screw 422 rotates. Due to the positive and negative thread characteristics of the double-acting screw 422, the two connecting brackets 421 will drive the guide plates 41 to move towards or away from each other, thereby adjusting the distance between the guide plates 41 to accommodate different widths of the surface.

[0044] One of the support plates 21 is equipped with a distance sensor 5 for detecting surface breakage. The distance sensor 5 can be an infrared distance sensor 5 or a laser distance sensor 5. It determines whether the surface is broken by detecting changes in the distance to the surface. The distance sensor 5 is electrically connected to a controller, which is electrically connected to a drive motor. When surface breakage is detected, the controller stops the drive motor.

[0045] The implementation principle of a continuous dough press machine according to an embodiment of this application is as follows: This continuous dough press machine achieves continuous dough pressing through the arrangement of multiple dough pressing mechanisms 2, thereby improving production efficiency. The scraping mechanism 3 can promptly clean the dough from the surface of the pressure rollers 22, ensuring the dough pressing effect and the normal operation of the equipment. The guiding mechanism 4 can guide the dough sheet accurately into the pressure rollers 22, improving the accuracy of dough pressing. The distance sensor 5 can monitor the state of the dough sheet in real time, ensuring the stability of production.

[0046] The above are all preferred embodiments of this application, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this application. Therefore, all equivalent changes made in accordance with the structure, shape and principle of this application should be covered within the scope of protection of this application.
