Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of food processing technology, and in particular to a cleaning machine for a small steamed bun forming machine. Background Technology

[0002] In the production of small steamed buns, pressing the dough is a key step. The symmetrically distributed pressing rollers inside the equipment frame rotate relative to each other under the drive of a motor, which can continuously press the fermented dough into a flat and uniformly thick sheet, laying the foundation for subsequent division and rounding into steamed bun embryos, and ensuring the consistency of the final shape and taste of the steamed buns.

[0003] The pressure rollers need cleaning because dough contains flour, water, and other components, easily leaving residue during pressing. This residue has significant drawbacks: firstly, it leads to uneven surfaces and food particles in the dough, affecting the quality of the steamed buns; secondly, it breeds bacteria, posing a food safety risk; and thirdly, the dried and hardened residue adheres to the pressure rollers, potentially affecting their normal rotation and reducing equipment performance. Manual cleaning has obvious drawbacks: it requires disassembling the pressure rollers, which is cumbersome and time-consuming, extending downtime and impacting production efficiency. Manual cleaning also struggles to thoroughly cover areas like the roller gaps, resulting in incomplete cleaning and high residue rates. Furthermore, it requires additional manpower, increasing production costs. Therefore, we propose a cleaning system for small steamed bun forming machines to address these problems. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to address the problems existing in the background technology by proposing a cleaning machine for a small steamed bun forming machine.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a cleaning machine for a small steamed bun forming machine, comprising a mounting frame, a mounting box, a baffle, a water pump, a second motor, and a rotating drum. Symmetrically distributed pressure rollers are rotatably mounted inside the mounting frame. A first motor is provided at one end of the mounting frame, with its output end connected to one end of the pressure roller. A third motor is provided at each end of the pressure roller opposite to the other end. A rotating drum is provided on one side of the third motor. The outer wall of the rotating drum has equidistantly distributed through holes and equidistantly distributed brushes. Support tubes are provided at both ends of the rotating drum. Inserted tubes are rotatably connected inside the support tubes. A flexible hose is provided at one end of each inserted tube. The output end of the water pump is connected to one end of the flexible hose.

[0006] Preferably, the output terminals of the motor are connected to the support tube, and a baffle, rotatably mounted to the support tube and fitted onto the outside of the pressure roller, is sleeved on the outside of the rotating drum. When the motor drives the support tube to rotate, it drives the rotating drum to rotate, and the baffle intercepts the cleaning liquid, preventing the cleaning liquid from splashing outwards.

[0007] Preferably, one side of the baffle is provided with symmetrically distributed guide rails, and one end of the baffle is provided with a slider that is slidably mounted on the outer wall of the guide rails. One end of the baffle slides on the outer wall of the guide rails via the slider, thereby providing longitudinal sliding guidance for one end of the baffle.

[0008] Preferably, a mounting frame is provided on one side of the mounting bracket, and a motor and a guide rod are arranged inside the mounting frame. A side plate is provided at one end of the cover, and an assembly hole is opened inside the side plate to slide and engage with the outer side of the guide rod. The assembly hole inside the side plate slides on the outer wall of the guide rod, providing sliding guidance when the other end of the cover moves longitudinally.

[0009] Preferably, the side plate has symmetrically distributed screw holes inside, and the output end of the motor is provided with a screw with oppositely distributed threads on its outer wall. The screw is threaded into the screw hole, and the upper end of the screw is rotatably mounted on the inner wall of the upper end of the mounting frame. The screw rotates inside the screw hole, and through the oppositely distributed threads on the outer wall of the screw, it pushes the side plate to move longitudinally relative to or away from each other.

[0010] Preferably, the mounting bracket has a travel groove inside, and the side plate is slidably mounted inside the travel groove. The travel groove allows the side plate to move effectively within the mounting bracket when it moves.

[0011] Preferably, the mounting frame, mounting bracket, and lower outer side of the guide rail are all fitted with a bottom groove. The lower ends of the mounting frame, mounting bracket, and guide rail are all provided with support plates connected to the inner wall of the bottom groove. The outer wall of the insertion tube is provided with a fixing rod connected to the baffle. The bottom groove receives the cleaning fluid, and the support plates support the lower ends of the mounting frame, mounting bracket, and guide rail.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0013] 1. This utility model uses the relative rotation of pressure rollers to press the conveyed dough for processing. During the forming of small steamed buns, the dough is rolled and formed. A rotating cylinder is set on the outside of the pressure roller. Through the brush and through holes on the outer wall, the cleaning liquid is effectively delivered to the inside of the rotating cylinder through the rotating connection of the support tube and the insertion tube during rotation, while avoiding obstruction of the cleaning water delivery. With the help of the longitudinal moving structure, the outer wall of the pressure roller is effectively brushed, and the outer wall of the pressure roller is conveniently cleaned, avoiding manual cleaning, reducing downtime, and cleaning is efficient and without dead corners, avoiding the residue of dough dirt. After use, the cleaning components are kept away from the pressure roller to ensure the effective use of the pressure roller. Attached Figure Description

[0020] 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.

[0021] like Figures 1-5 As shown, the present invention proposes a small steamed bun forming machine cleaning machine, including a mounting frame 2, a mounting frame 5, a baffle 6, a water pump 7, a second motor 10, and a rotating drum 23. The mounting frame 2 has symmetrically distributed pressure rollers 4 rotatably mounted inside. One end of the mounting frame 2 is provided with a motor 3 whose output end is connected to one end of the pressure roller 4. The opposite ends of the pressure rollers 4 are provided with motors 3 17. The rotating drum 23 is provided on one side of the motors 3 17. The outer wall of the rotating drum 23 has through holes 24 distributed at equal intervals. The outer wall of the rotating drum 23 is provided with brushes 20 distributed at equal intervals. Both ends of the rotating drum 23 are provided with support tubes 18. Insertion tubes 19 are rotatably inserted into the support tubes 18. One end of the insertion tube 19 is provided with a flexible tube 21. The output end of the water pump 7 is connected to one end of the flexible tube 21.

[0022] The output end of motor 317 is connected to support tube 18, and the outer side of the rotating drum 23 is fitted with a baffle 6 which is rotatably mounted to support tube 18 and fitted to the outer side of pressure roller 4.

[0023] A symmetrically distributed guide rail 22 is provided on one side of the baffle 6, and a slider 25 that is slidably installed on the outer wall of the guide rail 22 is provided at one end of the baffle 6.

[0024] The mounting frame 2 has a mounting frame 5 on one side, and the mounting frame 5 has a motor 2 10 and a guide rod 16 inside. The cover 6 has a side plate 8 at one end, and the side plate 8 has an assembly hole 15 that is slidably sleeved on the outside of the guide rod 16.

[0025] The side plate 8 has symmetrically distributed screw holes 13 inside. The output end of the motor 2 10 is provided with a screw 14 with relatively distributed outer wall threads. The screw 14 is threaded into the screw hole 13. The upper end of the screw 14 is rotatably mounted on the inner wall of the upper end of the mounting frame 5.

[0026] The mounting bracket 2 has a travel groove 12 inside, and the side plate 8 is slidably installed inside the travel groove 12.

[0027] The mounting frame 5, the mounting bracket 2, and the guide rail 22 are all fitted with bottom grooves 1 on their lower outer sides. The mounting frame 5, the mounting bracket 2, and the guide rail 22 are all provided with support plates 9 that are connected to the inner wall of the bottom grooves 1. The outer wall of the insertion tube 19 is provided with a fixing rod 11 that is connected to the baffle 6.

[0028] Based on the implementation steps of Example 1: The equipment mounting frame 2 is equipped with two sets of symmetrically distributed pressure rollers 4. The motor 3 at one end of the mounting frame 2 is connected to the pressure rollers 4 through a coupling to provide rotational power for the pressure rollers 4. The spacing between the pressure rollers 4 is set to 3mm to adapt to the thickness requirements of the small steamed bun dough. The operator conveys the fermented dough to the space between the two pressure rollers 4 through the feeding conveyor belt. The motor 3 starts and drives the two pressure rollers 4 to rotate relative to each other. Under the squeezing force of the pressure rollers 4, the dough is continuously rolled into a flat and uniform dough. After the dough is output by the pressure rollers 4, it is directly conveyed to the subsequent segmentation mechanism and finally enters the kneading and rounding component to make small steamed bun dough. During the entire rolling process, the surface of the pressure rollers 4 must be kept clean. If there are residual dough fragments, sticky flour lumps, or other flour stains, the surface of the dough will be uneven, or even have dirt inclusions, affecting the quality of the steamed bun dough.

[0029] Each of the pressure rollers 4 has a set of motors 17 at opposite ends. The output end of the motors 17 is connected to the support tube 18. The outer side of the support tube 18 is fixed with a rotating drum 23. The outer wall of the rotating drum 23 has through holes 24 with a diameter of 2mm and a spacing of 5mm. Nylon brushes 20 are attached to the rotating drum 23. The brushes are 1.5cm long and have moderate hardness to avoid scratching the pressure rollers 4. Insert tubes 19 are rotatably inserted into the support tubes 18 at both ends of the rotating drum 23. One end of the insert tube 19 is connected to the output end of the water pump 7 through a hose 21 to form a cleaning liquid delivery channel. In addition, a baffle 6 is sleeved on the outer side of the pressure rollers 4. The mounting frame 5 on one side of the mounting bracket 2 has a motor 10 and a screw 14 with the outer wall thread opposite to each other. The screw 14 is engaged with the screw hole 13 of the side plate 8 at one end of the baffle 6 to control the longitudinal movement of the baffle 6 and the rotating drum 23.

[0030] Start motor 10, which drives the twin screw 14 to rotate. Due to the relative distribution of the threads of the screw 14, the side plate 8 moves longitudinally along the stroke groove 12 and guide rod 16 of the mounting frame 2, and simultaneously drives the baffle 6 and the rotating drum 23 to approach the pressure roller 4 until the brush 20 on the outer wall of the rotating drum 23 is in close contact with the surface of the pressure roller 4. Start water pump 7 to deliver diluted food-grade neutral detergent solution through hose 21 and insert 19 into the rotating drum 23. The cleaning solution is evenly sprayed onto the surface of the pressure roller 4 and the brush 20 through the through hole 24 of the rotating drum 23. At the same time, start motor 17 to drive the rotating drum 23 to rotate. The brush 20 performs double cleaning of the residual dirt on the surface of the pressure roller 4 by brushing and rinsing during rotation. The baffle 6 can prevent the cleaning solution from splashing outward. The bottom groove 1 at the lower end of the mounting frame 2, mounting frame 5 and guide rail 22 receives the waste liquid after brushing and discharges it through the drain outlet of the bottom groove 1 for centralized treatment.

[0031] After cleaning, the reverse start motor 10 is activated, and the screw 14 drives the side plate 8, baffle 6, and rotating drum 23 longitudinally away from the pressure roller 4, returning them to their initial positions. This prevents the cleaning components from contacting the pressure roller 4 and affecting subsequent dough rolling. Finally, the pressure roller 4 is emptied to drain any residual cleaning liquid, and production can resume. The automated cleaning machine eliminates the need to disassemble the pressure roller 4, reducing the cleaning time from tens of minutes in traditional manual cleaning to just a few minutes, minimizing downtime and increasing the production of small steamed buns. The through-hole 24 of the rotating drum 23 delivers liquid, and the rotating brush 20 cleans the surface, covering... The entire surface of the pressure roller 4, including the gaps at both ends, prevents dough residue from remaining. No dedicated personnel are required for cleaning, reducing labor costs. At the same time, the cleaning components are adapted to the wear condition of the pressure roller 4, reducing equipment maintenance costs. Thorough cleaning ensures the surface of the pressure roller 4 is clean, preventing dough from sticking together and uneven thickness, thus improving the consistency of the small steamed buns. The baffle 6 intercepts cleaning liquid splashes, and the bottom tank 1 collects waste liquid, preventing cleaning liquid from contaminating equipment parts or the ground, keeping the production environment clean. The cleaning time is short, and cleaning can be completed during production breaks without affecting the continuous processing flow.
