Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of sandwich bread processing technology, and in particular relates to an automatic sandwich filling and leveling device. Background Technology

[0002] Sandwich bread is a food product made from high-gluten flour and whole wheat flour as the base ingredients through a multi-stage fermentation process. The production process includes standardized procedures such as starter preparation, main dough kneading, and multiple folding and fermentation. The finished product has a rich wheat aroma and a soft texture, making it suitable for making various sandwiches. During the processing, it is necessary to strictly control the dough temperature and fermentation humidity, and adjust the formula and process parameters to meet different needs.

[0003] A Chinese patent application with publication number CN220255536U discloses a sandwich production line, including a first peeling mechanism, a second peeling mechanism, a slicing mechanism, and a stacking conveyor belt mechanism. The first and second peeling mechanisms are arranged in parallel and staggered order. The discharge end of the first peeling mechanism is provided with a first flipping mechanism. The feeding end of the slicing mechanism is perpendicular to the discharge end of the second peeling mechanism. The discharge end of the second peeling mechanism is provided with a second flipping mechanism. The side of the stacking conveyor belt mechanism is sequentially provided with a first slicing mechanism, a first spreading mechanism, a second slicing mechanism, a second spreading mechanism, a meat floss sprinkling mechanism, a third spreading mechanism, a third slicing mechanism, and a compaction mechanism. The discharge end of the stacking conveyor belt mechanism is connected to a cutting mechanism. The advantages are: it can realize the automated production of sandwich bread, with a high degree of automation, high production efficiency, and can ensure the stable and uniform quality of sandwich bread production.

[0004] Although this patent improves sandwich production efficiency and ensures consistent sandwich bread quality through automated production, the filling and spreading process of the sauce layer is problematic. Because the sauce is applied directly to the sandwich surface through a sauce spreading mechanism, the sauce's fluidity varies due to temperature and composition variations. This makes it difficult to evenly cover the entire bread area, often resulting in thin edges or center accumulation of sauce, which directly affects the product's appearance and taste consistency, making it unsuitable for use.

[0005] To address these issues, we provide an automated sandwich filling and leveling device. Utility Model Content

[0006] The purpose of this invention is to provide an automatic filling and leveling device for sandwiches. By combining the filling sauce leveling component and the constant temperature mechanism, the invention solves the problem that existing automatic filling devices for sandwiches are easily affected by the fluidity of the sauce, resulting in the sauce not being evenly spread on the surface of the sandwich, thus affecting the appearance and taste of the product.

[0007] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model is achieved through the following technical solution.

[0008] This utility model relates to an automatic sandwich filling and leveling device, comprising a conveyor and a sandwich sauce leveling component.

[0014] The present invention is further provided that the front side of the filling shell has an openable opening for use with a scraper. The scraper is made of flexible silicone material. The openable opening makes it easy for the threaded sleeve to control the position of the scraper. The scraper made of flexible silicone material can increase the uniformity of the sauce spreading, while not causing the sandwich to break.

[0015] The present invention has the following beneficial effects.

[0016] 1. This utility model uses a sandwich sauce even spreading component, a recycling shell to collect excess sauce, and then a pump to mix the recycled sauce with the new sauce. The sauce is then evenly sprayed onto the bread surface through the cooperation of a hose and a nozzle. The adjustment mechanism drives the scraper to move along the bread surface to achieve the smoothing and evenness of the sauce. The bread slice is located inside the filling shell, which avoids the phenomenon of the sauce being too thin at the edges and piling up in the center during the smooth spreading process, thus improving the uniformity of the sandwich coverage and the consistency of the taste.

[0017] 2. This utility model uses a constant temperature mechanism to temporarily store and buffer the sauce in the storage shell. The heating shell is equipped with a heater and heat is continuously transferred to the sauce through a heat conduction plate, so as to achieve stable temperature control of the sauce, avoid the difference in fluidity caused by temperature changes, ensure that the sauce maintains a suitable state during filling and leveling, and improve the stability of product quality.

[0032] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: Conveyor 1 transports the sandwich to be processed to a position below the positioning mold 5. Then, electric cylinder 3 is activated, driving filling shell 4 to descend and cover the sandwich. At this time, the sandwich is located inside the positioning mold 5. Then, storage shell 641 continuously supplies constant temperature sauce. The sauce is transported to nozzle 66 through hose 65 and sprayed onto the surface of the bread through nozzle 66. Then, motor 672 is activated, driving screw 673 to rotate. Screw 673 drives threaded sleeve 674 and scraper 68 to move. Flexible silicone scraper 68 evenly spreads the sauce on top of the sandwich. Excess sauce is pushed into the recycling shell 61 and discharged through pump 6. 2. The filling shell 63 works in conjunction with the suction hood 63 to collect excess sauce and re-transport the sauce into the storage shell 641 to mix with new sauce. Inside the storage shell 641, the sauce is kept at a constant temperature by the cooperation of the heater 645 and the heat conduction plate 643. The heater 645 heats the internal space of the heating shell 642, and the heat conduction plate 643 conducts heat into the storage shell 641 to maintain a stable temperature of the sauce inside the storage shell 641 and ensure consistent fluidity. After leveling, the filling shell 4 rises, the conveyor 1 removes the sandwich, and the equipment resets to prepare for the next cycle. The filling and leveling of the sandwich's filling sauce is completed automatically, avoiding uneven sauce application at the edges and center of the sandwich.
