[0012] The following clearly and completely describes the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention, Referring to Figure 1-19, For clarity, the directions of movement of each part and device are indicated by "0-X", "0-Y" and "0-Z" in the diagram, as shown in Fig. 1. The RR axis is used in the diagram to indicate that the cooking device 7 and the egg transport device 3 are offset from each other, as shown in Fig. 3.
[0013] As shown in FIG. 1-3 , the embodiment of the present invention provides an automatic fried egg machine, which includes a main body frame 1, an egg placing device 2, an egg transporting device 3, a moving component 4, an egg pushing device 5, an egg opening device 6, a cooking device 7, and a rotating tray device 400. It is also possible to realize placing an egg on the egg opening device 6 manually or by other devices. In this embodiment, an egg transporting device 3 is provided to transport an egg to the egg opening device 6. The egg placing device 2 is provided on the upper side of the main body frame 1, and the egg transporting device 3 is provided on the egg placing device 2 in the main body frame 1. The egg opening device 6 is provided at the top inside the main frame 1 and cooperates with the cooking device 7. A moving component 4 is provided above the egg opening device 6 to move the egg opening device 6 back and forth along the 0-Y direction. The cooking device 7 is provided diagonally below the egg placing device 2. The cooking device 7 and the egg transporting device 3 are offset in position on the RR axis to prevent the oily smoke from the cooking device 7 from directly adhering to and corroding the parts of the egg transporting device 3, thereby extending the service life of the egg transporting device 3. As shown in FIG. 2, when using the machine, eggs are manually placed in the egg placing device 2 in sequence, and then the egg transporting device 3 sends the eggs to the egg opening device 6, which receives the eggs in sequence, cracks them from the sides and pours the egg liquid into the cooking device 7, which heats and frys the eggs, and then the egg pushing device 5 pushes the cooked fried eggs into the rotating tray device 400 of the fried egg machine, and finally, the fried eggs on the rotating tray device 400 are removed at the right time, which frees up both hands during cooking and greatly improves the efficiency of frying eggs.
[0014] As shown in Figures 3 and 4, the egg placing device 2 includes an egg insertion opening 21 and a rocking plate 22, the upper end of the rocking plate 22 is fixed to the egg insertion opening 21 and is inclined, and the lower end of the rocking plate 22 is provided with a rocking plate trigger unit 34 for triggering the rocking of the rocking plate 22, and the egg transporting device 3 is located on the lower end surface of the rocking plate 22, and the egg transporting device 3 includes a conveyor 31, an egg rotating rod 32, and a drive pulley 33, and an egg can be inserted through the egg insertion opening 21 by holding it by hand or by holding it with another device, and when the egg moves toward the egg opening device 6 on the egg rotating rod 32, the rocking plate trigger unit 34 triggers the egg rotating rod 32, and the egg rotating rod 32 lifts the rocking plate trigger unit 34 and further lifts the rocking plate 22 to cause rocking, adjusting the egg to fall between the two adjacent egg rotating rods 32 below, thereby automatically starting the transport of the egg.
[0015] Specifically, a number of freely rotatable egg rotating rods 32 are fixed to a conveyor 31. When the egg rotating rods 32 move to a certain position along the conveyor 31, they can rotate in contact with the driving pulley 33. The adjacent egg rotating rods 32 that come into contact with the chicken eggs rotate synchronously. The egg rotating rods 32 are hollow drums that are narrow in the middle and wide on both sides. The conveyor 31 is a chain conveyor 31. The driving pulley 33 is disposed in a hollow portion of the conveyor 31. When the egg rotating rods 32 fixed to the conveyor 31 move to a position corresponding to the driving pulley 33, the egg rotating rods 32 create a contact surface with the driving pulley 33. Since the egg rotating rods 32 are freely rotatable, the driving pulley 33 rotates to rotate the egg rotating rods 32. The contact surface of the egg rotating rod 32 generates friction, thereby rotating the egg rotating rod 32, and the eggs roll from the rocking plate 22 to between the two adjacent egg rotating rods 32. The conveyor 31 rotates to move the eggs synchronously with the egg rotating rods 32. When the egg rotating rod 32 at the position of the corresponding driving pulley 33 is rotated by the driving pulley 33, the eggs in contact with the egg rotating rod 32 are rotated. Since eggs are elliptical, i.e., narrow at both ends and wide in the middle, the eggs can fit into the gap between the two adjacent egg rotating rods 32 during rolling, and the posture and orientation of all the eggs positioned on the egg rotating rods 32 are adjusted to be consistent, making it easier for the egg support part 61 to receive the eggs.
[0016] As shown in FIG. 3, the moving component 4 includes a driving member 41, a slide rod 42, and a slide block 43 slidably mounted on the slide rod 42, and the egg opening device 6 is fixedly mounted on the slide block 43. When the driving member 41 is activated, the slide block 43 can move the egg opening device 6 back and forth linearly along the slide rod 42. The slide rod 42 can further be a device such as a slide rail or a gear belt that can support and move the egg opening device 6, and will not be described here.
[0017] As shown in FIG. 5-13, the egg opening device 6 includes an egg support part 61, a trigger part 62, and an egg knife 63. The trigger part 62 includes an egg receiving position a, an egg cracking position b, an egg opening position c, and a shell discarding position e (each trigger point of the trigger part 62 is shown in FIG. 3 and FIG. 6, and the section of the trigger point in FIG. 3 corresponds to the section of the trigger point in FIG. 6). In the embodiment of the present invention, when the egg support part 61 is located at the egg receiving position a of the trigger part 62, it can receive a chicken egg, and when it moves to the egg cracking position b, it can discard the shell of the chicken egg. The egg knife 63 is triggered to crack from the side, and when it moves to the egg opening position c, the egg support part 61 is triggered to open together with the egg knife 63 (it may move to the egg cracking position b and the egg opening position c at the same time, the egg knife breaks the egg and enters it in an instant, at this time the egg support part 61 is triggered to hit the egg knife 63 and open immediately), a small opening is made in the egg to allow the egg white and egg liquid to flow out of the egg shell, at this time the egg support part 61 can further support the egg and stop for 3-5 seconds to wait until the egg liquid has almost finished flowing. The egg support part 61 is finally triggered to move to the shell discarding position e, and continue opening until it can no longer support the egg shell, and then it is dropped to complete the shell discarding operation, and the egg opening device 6 achieves the completion of the egg receiving, egg cracking, egg opening, and shell discarding operations along one direction by one moving device.
[0018] As shown in FIG. 5-7, the egg support part 61 includes an egg holder 611, a fourth spring 65 is provided between the egg holders 611, a double-rod push rod 612 is fixedly provided on one side of the egg holder 611 for opening and closing the egg holder 611, a first roller 613 is provided on one side of the double-rod push rod 612, an egg knife 63 is disposed above the egg support part 61, an “L”-shaped bracket 631 is provided on one side of the egg knife 63, and a third spring 65 is provided between the two “L”-shaped brackets 631. 64, a locking groove 633 is provided on one side of the "L" shaped bracket 631, a second roller 634 is provided on one side of the locking groove 633, a locking hook 632 corresponding to the locking groove 633 is provided on one side of the locking groove 633, a third roller 635 is provided on one side of the locking hook 632, two inclined bumps 614 are fixedly provided on the double rod type push rod 612, and a sloped groove (not shown) corresponding to the sloped bump 614 is provided on the lower end surface of the "L" shaped bracket 631, Specifically, as shown in FIG. 8 and FIG. 9, at this time, the egg support part 61 and the egg knife 63 are located at the egg receiving position a of the trigger part 62, and receive the chicken eggs transported from the egg transporting device 3. 9 and 10, at this time, when the egg support part 61 and the egg knife 63 move to and pass through the egg cracking position b of the trigger part 62, the third roller 635 rolls above the egg cracking position b, and the locking hook 632 rotates outward to release the locking groove 633, so that the "L"-shaped bracket 631 moves the egg knife 63 toward the egg, and cracks the egg shell from the side. The "L"-shaped bracket 631 is provided with a sloped groove (not shown), which fits the sloped bump 614 of the double-rod push rod 612. When the egg knife 63 moves toward the egg to crack the egg, the sloped groove (not shown) engages with the sloped bump 614 of the double-rod push rod 612. As shown in FIG. 11, the egg support part 61 and the egg knife 63 continue to move to the egg opening position c of the trigger part 62, and the first roller 613 rolls at the egg opening position c. At this time, both sides of the double-rod push rod 612 along the 0-Y direction are slightly opened, and the inclined groove (not shown) is closely engaged with the inclined bump 614. Therefore, the double-rod push rod 612 slightly opens both the egg holder 611 and the egg knife 63, and further slightly opens the egg shell to allow the egg liquid to flow out and drop into the cooking device 7 directly below. As shown in FIG. 12, in order to avoid the egg knife 63 possibly blocking the shell disposal operation, the trigger portion 62 is provided with a knife reset position d which triggers the reset of the egg knife 63, and when the second roller 634 rolls through the knife reset position d, it moves the egg knife 63 in the opposite direction to the chicken egg, and at the same time, the third spring 64 closes the "L" shaped bracket 631 to close the egg knife 63, thereby causing the locking hook 632 to slide from the arc-shaped side of the locking groove 633 to lock into the locking groove 633, resetting the egg knife 63, and reducing the barrier of the egg knife 63 to the egg shell, so that the egg holder 611 can more easily discard the shell.
[0019] As shown in FIG. 13, the egg support part 61 and the egg knife 63 continue to move to the shell discarding position e, and the arc degree of the shell discarding position e is much larger than the arc degree of the egg opening position d. At this time, both sides of the double-rod push rod 612 along the 0-Y direction continue to open, opening both the egg holder 611 and the egg knife 63, and opening until the egg holder 611 can no longer support the egg shell. The egg shell will naturally fall under the action of gravity, completing the shell discarding operation. When the egg holder 611 is reset, the elastic force of the fourth spring 65 itself closes the egg holder 611.
[0020] As shown in Figures 14 and 15, the cooking device 7 includes a frying pan and a fixed plate 74, and the fixed plate 74 is located below the egg receiving position a of the trigger portion 62 (the position of the fixed plate 74 is shown by the line RR in Figure 3), the frying pan includes an upper frying pan 71 and a lower frying pan 72, and the upper frying pan 71 and the lower frying pan 72 are fixed to one side of the fixed plate 74, a first outlet 711 is provided on one side of the upper frying pan 71, a second outlet 721 is provided on one side of the lower frying pan 72, the first outlet 711 of the upper frying pan 71 is disposed directly above the lower frying pan 72, heating pipes 73 are provided at the bottom of the upper frying pan 71 and the bottom of the lower frying pan 72, and one side of the fixed plate 74 is provided with a heating pipe 73. An egg pressing device 5 is provided on the side, and the egg pressing device 5 includes a moving block 51 that reciprocates along the OX direction, a driving air cylinder 56, an upper spatula 52, and a lower spatula 53. A first long hole 741 and a second long hole 742 are provided in the fixed plate 74. One end of the upper spatula 52 passes through the first long hole 741, and one end of the lower spatula 53 passes through the second long hole 742. Both the upper spatula 52 and the lower spatula 53 are fixed to the moving block 51. The upper spatula 52 is disposed in the upper frying pan 71, and the lower spatula 53 is disposed in the lower frying pan 72. When the driving air cylinder 56 is activated to move the moving block 51 back and forth along the 0-X direction, the upper spatula 52 and the lower spatula 53 are moved together.
[0021] Specifically, the first long hole 741 and the second long hole 742 are inclined toward the cooking device 7, which minimizes the oil smoke from the cooking device 7 drifting to the egg pressing device 5, reduces the corrosion caused by the oil smoke, effectively reduces the number of cleanings, and extends the service life of the egg pressing device 5.
[0022] An oil pumping unit (not shown) for adding oil to the upper frying pan 71 may be further provided on one side of the egg pressing device 5. The oil pumping unit (not shown) can pump a fixed amount of oil into the upper frying pan 71 every time an egg is fried, thereby realizing automatic oil addition to the upper frying pan 71.
[0023] As shown in Fig. 15, the lower spatula 53 pushes the fried egg placed in the lower frying pan 72 in the opposite direction during resetting, resulting in failure to fry the egg. Therefore, generally, the lower spatula 53 can be configured to release the fried egg by using a conventional technique such as lifting it with a motor, and the lower spatula 53 can lift and release it. In the embodiment of the present invention, a first lifting device 54 is provided on the side where the upper spatula 52 is provided, and a second lifting device 55 is provided on one side of the lower spatula 53. The first lifting device 54 and the second lifting device 55 have the same structure, and the upper spatula 52 and the lower spatula 53 lift and release the egg synchronously to realize synchronous pressing and resetting. In order to explain the operation principle of the upper spatula 52 in detail, the operation principle of the lower spatula 53 will not be explained here.
[0024] As shown in FIG. 16, the first lift device 54 includes an escape plate 541, a swing arm 546, and an elastic sheet 542. The escape plate 541 is provided with an escape groove 543. On both sides of the escape groove 543, a guide surface 548, an escape slope 547, and a second notch 545 are provided. A first notch 544 can be formed between the escape slope 547 and the elastic sheet 542. The swing arm 546 is provided with a guide surface 548, an escape slope 547, and a second notch 545. A fourth roller 521 is provided at one end of the elastic sheet 542, and the elastic sheet 542 can be bent slightly elastically. When at rest, the fourth roller 521 is located at the upper end of the guide surface 548 of the second notch 545, and the lower end surface of the upper spatula 52 and the fried egg surface of the lower frying pan 72 maintain a certain height. This ensures that the upper spatula 52 does not come into contact with the high-temperature fried egg surface when waiting for the fried egg in the lower frying pan 72, and greatly extends the service life of the upper spatula 52. A rail is formed between the escape groove 543 and the elastic sheet 542. By starting the driving air cylinder 56, the moving block 51 moves the upper spatula 52 along the 0->X direction, and the fourth roller 521 moves within the rail. In the process, the tension of the second spring 58 makes the lower end surface of the upper spatula 52 more closely contact with the arc-shaped fried egg surface of the upper frying pan 71 and presses the egg. When the fourth roller 521 contacts the escape slope 547 and rolls along the escape slope 547, the fourth roller 521 presses the elastic sheet 542 downward to deform it into the first notch 544. At this time, the upper spatula 52 rotates counterclockwise with the escape slope 547 as the rotation point, lifting the upper spatula 52 and moving the lower end surface of the upper spatula 52 away from the fried egg surface 6 of the lower frying pan 72, completing the egg pressing action and achieving complete egg pressing.
[0025] As shown in FIG. 17, by activating the driving air cylinder 56, the moving block 51 moves the upper spatula 52 along the X->0 direction. At this time, when the fourth roller 521 rolls until it just comes into contact with the elastic sheet 542, the escape slope 547 stops the upward deformation of the elastic sheet 542, so as to prevent the fourth roller 521 from returning to the escape groove 543. In the process of the fourth roller 521 rolling on the lower end surface of the elastic sheet 542, the height distance between the lower end surface of the upper spatula 52 and the fried egg surface of the upper frying pan 71 is maintained, so as to effectively prevent the chicken egg that naturally falls from the upper frying pan 71 during resetting from being pushed back, resulting in failed fried eggs. When the fourth roller 521 rolls to the position of the second notch 545 while in close contact with the lower end surface of the elastic sheet 542, it maintains the height of the lower end surface of the upper spatula 52. Under the action of the tension of the second spring 57, the fourth roller 521 rolls from the lower end surface of the elastic sheet 542 through the second notch 545 to the upper end of the guide surface 548. At this time, the fourth roller 521 is not in contact with the upper end surface of the elastic sheet 542, so that the lower spatula 52 is reset and the next egg pressing is facilitated.
[0026] Specifically, after the upper frying pan 71 frys the egg, it is pushed to the first outlet 711 by the upper spatula 52, dropped directly into the lower frying pan 72 below and then turned over. Since the upper spatula 52 and the lower spatula 53 move synchronously, there is no need to worry about the fried egg falling onto the lower spatula 53 when it falls. Then, the upper spatula 52 and the lower spatula 53 are reset, oil is added, and the egg is cracked above the upper frying pan 71. At the same time, the chicken eggs in the upper frying pan 71 and the lower frying pan 72 are fried, which ensures the doneness, texture and beauty of the egg, while also improving the speed of fried eggs and saving the time required for fried eggs.
[0027] As shown in Figures 18 and 19, an oil stopper 8 is provided above the cooking device 7, and the oil stopper 8 includes a baffle plate 81, an oil receiving groove 82, and an oil smoke suction device 83. The fixed plate 74 is provided with a slide groove 744 and an oil draining groove 743, and one end of the baffle plate 81 is provided with a protrusion 811. The baffle plate 81 is fixedly connected to the oil receiving groove 82, and the baffle plate 81 can block the oil smoke generated when the upper frying pan 71 and the lower frying pan 72 fry eggs. By making the oil receiving groove 82 correspond to the oil draining groove 743, some of the oil droplets remaining on the fixed plate 74 can flow along the fixed plate 74 to the oil receiving groove 82, and can receive the oil droplets dripping from the oil solidification part 75, thereby preventing the oil droplets from remaining below the main frame 1 and being difficult to clean. The oil smoke suction device 83 discharges the oil smoke from the cooking device 7. By making the protrusion 811 correspond to the slide groove 744 and pulling out some parts of the rotating tray device 400, the baffle plate 81 and the oil receiving groove 82 can be completely pulled out from the main frame 1 and directly washed outside, which is simple and convenient to operate and saves time and effort in cleaning.
[0028] As shown in Fig. 1, the main body frame 1 is further provided with a shell receiving slide groove 100 for receiving egg shells, an egg removal opening 200, a cleaning opening 300 formed after the door plate of the shell receiving slide groove 100 is opened, and a rotating tray device 400 for receiving fried eggs that have naturally fallen from the lower frying pan 72. The shell receiving slide groove 100 is located directly below the shell disposal position e, so that the egg shells in the egg opening device 6 can fall to the shell receiving slide groove 100. The shell discharge opening of the shell receiving slide groove 100 is located outside the main body frame 1, so that a trash can or a trash bag for putting egg shells in can be placed below the shell discharge opening of the shell receiving slide groove 100. The egg removal opening 200 allows the fried egg to be observed, and the fried egg is pushed out of the main body frame 1 through the egg removal opening 200. The rotating tray device 400 is attached below the egg outlet 200 and is used to receive fried eggs dropped from the lower frying pan 72. The rotating tray device 400 may be configured to rotate at a certain angle to receive eggs in a circular array, which avoids frequent manual egg removal, increases the number of fried eggs received, and extends the interval between manual egg removal. After the oil stopper 8 is pulled out, the door panel at the shell receiving slide groove 100 is opened to form the cleaning port 300, and when the oil stopper 8 is pulled out from the egg outlet 200, it is directly inserted into the cooking device 7, and the space where the cooking device 7 is located is cleaned, which is simple and convenient to operate.
[0029] The operation process of the automatic egg frying machine in this embodiment is as follows.
[0030] An operator puts an egg into the egg inlet 21, and the egg slowly rolls from the inclined rocking plate 22 to the egg rotating rod 32 of the egg transporting device 3. Then, the conveyor 31 of the egg transporting device 3 rotates to move the egg together with the egg rotating rod 32. When the egg moves to just above the egg opening device 6 (at this time, the egg opening device 6 is located at the egg receiving position a of the trigger unit 62), the egg continues to move and falls onto the egg holder 611 of the egg support unit 61, starting the driving member 41 in the moving component 4. The slide block 43 moves the egg knife 63 and the egg support unit 61 on the slide rod 42 along the Y->0 direction to the egg cracking position b, and at the same time pours oil into the upper frying pan 71. At this time, the third roller 635 rolls through the egg cracking position b, which causes the locking hook 632 to leave the locking groove 633, and the "L"-shaped bracket moves the egg knife 63 toward the egg to crack the egg shell from the side of the egg. The egg knife 63 and the egg support 61 continue to move, the first roller 613 rolls through the egg opening position c, the double-rod push rod 612 moves the egg knife 63 to open the egg from the side of the egg, and the egg liquid flows into the upper frying pan 71 through the small hole left in the baffle plate 81, and the egg knife 63 and the egg support 61 continue to move, and the second roller 634 rolls through the knife reset position d, which causes the locking hook 632 to slide from the arc-shaped side of the locking groove 633 and lock into the locking groove 633.The egg knife 63 and the egg support 61 move to the shell discarding position e, the double-rod push rod continues to open the egg holder 611, and the egg shell falls naturally into the shell receiving slide groove 100. At the same time, the upper frying pan 71 cooks and shapes one side of the fried egg, and starts the egg pressing device 5. The moving block 51 moves the upper spatula 52 and the lower spatula 53 along the O->X direction, and the fried egg falls naturally from the first outlet 711 to the lower frying pan 72 and is pulled out. Repeating this, the upper spatula 52 and the lower spatula 53 are reset, and as the moving block 51 continues to move along the O->X direction, the upper spatula 52 is moved to push the fried egg in the upper frying pan 71 so that it falls from the first outlet 711, and at the same time, the lower spatula 53 is pushed to drop the fried egg in the lower frying pan 72 from the second outlet 721 to the rotating tray device 400, and by repeating the above operations, fried eggs can be continuously made and received, transported and sold.
