Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of gummy candy production, specifically a pelletizing device for gummy candy production. Background Technology

[0002] In the field of gummy candy production and processing, the pelletizing device is the key equipment that determines the shape and quality of the finished gummy candy. Its pelletizing accuracy and stability directly affect the market competitiveness of the product. Because gummy candy contains a lot of sugar, colloids and other sticky components, material residue is very likely to adhere to the blade surface during the cutting process.

[0003] Traditional pelletizing devices typically have exposed blades that lack a targeted residue cleaning mechanism. As the cutting process continues, gummy candy residue accumulates on the blade surface, which not only dulls the blade edge, causing subsequent gummy candy particles to have burrs, stick together, and uneven size, but may also deteriorate due to prolonged heating of the residue, affecting the taste and hygiene of the gummy candy. Therefore, it is necessary to design a pelletizing device for gummy candy production to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a pelletizing device for gummy candy production, so as to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0016] 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.

[0017] Example 1: Please refer to Figure 1-4 As shown, this utility model provides a pelletizing device for producing gummy candies, including two guide cylinders 1 and a U-shaped connecting plate 2 connected to the sides of the two guide cylinders 1. An L-shaped connecting arm 3 is fixedly installed on the top surface of the upper guide cylinder 1, a driving part is installed on the bottom surface of the L-shaped connecting arm 3, and multiple pelletizing blades 6 are installed on the outside of the driving part. A clamping component for clamping strip-shaped gummy candies is installed on the top surface of the U-shaped connecting plate 2. The outer side of the pelletizer 6 is fitted with a scraper sleeve 7 for scraping off the residue on the surface of the pelletizer 6. An elastic element is provided between the scraper sleeve 7 and the turntable 5. The bottom surface of the L-shaped connecting arm 3 is equipped with a scraping component for moving the scraper sleeve 7 and cleaning the residue accumulated on the side of the scraper sleeve 7.

[0018] Specifically, the clamping component controls the entire strip of gummy candy to move downwards, the drive unit drives the granulator 6 to granulate the gummy candy, the scraping component drives the scraper sleeve 7 to move and scrape off the residue on the surface of the granulator 6, and uniformly cleans the residue accumulated on the surface of the scraper sleeve 7.

[0019] The scraping assembly includes a push rod 9 and a first linear motor 10. The push rod 9 is fixedly installed on the top of the scraper sleeve 7. The first linear motor 10 is fixedly installed on the bottom surface of the horizontal section of the L-shaped connecting arm 3. A vertical plate 11 is fixedly installed at the moving end of the first linear motor 10. An electric push rod 12 is fixedly installed on the top surface of the vertical plate 11. A push plate 13 for scraping the residue on the surface of the scraper sleeve 7 is fixedly installed at the output end of the electric push rod 12. The first linear motor 10 can control the horizontal movement of the vertical plate 11. When the scraper sleeve 7 and the push rod 9 are facing the vertical plate 11, the switch of the first linear motor 10 is turned on, which drives the vertical plate 11 to move. The vertical plate 11 pushes the push rod 9 and the scraper sleeve 7 to move, so that the scraper sleeve 7 scrapes the residue on the surface of the pelletizing knife 6. The cross-section of the push plate 13 is rectangular. The width of the push plate 13 is appropriately matched with the width of the scraper sleeve 7. When the vertical plate 11 contacts the push rod 9, the side positions of the push plate 13 and the scraper sleeve 7 are perpendicularly aligned. When the push plate 13 moves downward, it can scrape the residue on the side of the scraper sleeve 7.

[0020] The drive unit includes a motor 4, which is fixedly mounted on the bottom surface of the L-shaped connecting arm 3 via a base. A turntable 5 is fixedly mounted on the output end of the motor 4. Multiple pelletizing blades 6 are evenly spaced on the outside of the turntable 5. By turning on the motor 4, the turntable 5 is driven to rotate, thereby causing the pelletizing blades 6 to rotate and perform pelletizing work.

[0021] Specifically, the elastic element is a spring 8. One end of the spring 8 is fixedly installed on one side of the scraper sleeve 7, and the other end of the spring 8 is fixedly installed on the outside of the turntable 5. During the resetting process of the vertical plate 11, the spring 8 pulls the scraper sleeve 7 to move, so that the scraper sleeve 7 moves to a position that will not affect the rotation of the pelletizing knife 6.

[0022] It also includes a waste box 14 for collecting cutting residue. The waste box 14 is located below the L-shaped connecting arm 3. When the scraper sleeve 7 moves to the end of the pelletizer 6, it is directly opposite the middle of the waste box 14. Subsequently, when the push plate 13 moves downward to scrape off the residue on the surface of the scraper sleeve 7, the residue can directly enter the waste box 14.

[0023] The clamping assembly includes a second linear motor 15, which is vertically fixed on the top surface of the U-shaped connecting plate 2. The moving end of the second linear motor 15 is detachably equipped with a clamping part 16 for clamping the strip-shaped candy. The strip-shaped candy is clamped by the two clamping parts 16, and the lower end of the strip-shaped candy passes through the guide tube 1. The downward movement of the clamping part 16 can change the relative position of the strip-shaped candy and the granulator 6, which facilitates the granulation work.

[0024] Working principle: This utility model is a granulation device for producing gummy candies. In use, the upper end of the strip-shaped gummy candy is clamped by the clamping part 16, and the lower end is inserted into the guide tube 1. The switch of the motor 4 is turned on, which drives the turntable 5 and the granulator 6 to rotate. The granulator 6 passes between the two guide tubes 1 to granulate the gummy candy. The granulated gummy candy falls after passing through the inner side of the lower guide tube 1 and is collected by the container. After granulating one piece, the switch of the second linear motor 15 is turned on, which drives the clamping part 16 and the strip-shaped gummy candy to move downward as a whole, so as to facilitate the continued granulation work. By adjusting the amplitude of the downward movement of the moving end of the second linear motor 15, the size of the granulated gummy candy can be adjusted. After the pelletizer 6 has been working for a certain period of time, some residue adheres to its surface. The pelletizer 6, scraper sleeve 7, and push rod 9 are rotated to face the vertical plate 11. The moving end of the first linear motor 10 is moved to drive the vertical plate 11 to move laterally. The vertical plate 11 pushes the push rod 9 and scraper sleeve 7 to move. The scraper sleeve 7 scrapes off the residue on the surface of the pelletizer 6. The residue accumulates on the side of the scraper sleeve 7 away from the turntable 5. When the scraper sleeve 7 moves to the end of the pelletizer 6 and enters the inside of the scraper sleeve 7, the electric push rod 12 is opened, which drives the push plate 13 to move downward. The push plate 13 pushes the residue accumulated on the side of the scraper sleeve 7 downward and pushes the residue into the waste box 14. Then, the first linear motor 10 is controlled to drive the vertical plate 11 to reset, and the spring 8 pulls the scraper sleeve 7 to reset, thus completing the residue cleaning work.
