Description

A device for cooking gummy candies Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of gummy candy processing machinery, and more particularly to a gummy candy cooking apparatus. Background Technology

[0002] Soft candy generally refers to gel candy, which is mainly made of one or more hydrophilic gels and sweeteners. It is formed by heating and melting to a certain concentration, and then adding or not adding acidulants, flavorings, colorings, nutrients, etc., under certain conditions, into a gel-like candy block with high water content and soft texture. In the production process of soft candy, different raw materials need to be added according to different flavors. In order to ensure the diversity of flavors, a stirring rod is needed to quickly blend the raw materials.

[0003] A search revealed a Chinese patent publication number CN220255603U, which discloses a soft candy blending and cooking device, including a pot body with a horizontal plate fixedly connected to the upper end of the pot body. A stirring mechanism is located inside the pot body and is used to stir the raw materials inside the pot body. A transmission mechanism is installed below the horizontal plate and is used to drive the stirring mechanism to rotate. A fixing mechanism is located above the stirring mechanism and is used to fix the stirring mechanism to the transmission mechanism.

[0004] The patent makes it easy to remove and clean the stirring rod by setting a fixing mechanism. However, the fixing mechanism is connected by a threaded rod. During use, part of the threaded rod is exposed to the environment. During the cooking and mixing process, some materials may splash onto the surface of the threaded rod and form hard blocks on the surface of the threaded rod as they cook, which hinders the relative rotation of the threaded block and the threaded rod and affects the disassembly of the stirring rod.

[0027] Example 1

[0028] A candy-making apparatus, as shown in Figures 1 to 4, includes a support frame 1. A pot body 2 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the support frame 1. A pouring spout 3 is provided on one side of the top of the pot body 2. A fixing frame 6 is fixedly connected to the top of the pot body 2. A drive shaft 10 is rotatably connected to the outer wall of the bottom end of the fixing frame 6. A stirring frame 11 is connected to both sides of the drive shaft 10 through fixing components. The stirring frame 11 includes a locking block 15 and a connecting rod 13. The locking block 15 is connected to the bottom of the drive shaft 10. The end is snapped together. The first connecting rod 13 is connected to one end of the locking block 15. The other end of the first connecting rod 13 is connected to the scraper 12. The scraper 12 is in contact with the inner wall of the pot body 2. The bottom outer wall of the locking block 15 is connected to the second connecting rod 14. The other end of the second connecting rod 14 is perpendicularly connected to the scraper 12. The top of the fixing frame 6 is equipped with a stirring motor 7. The output end of the stirring motor 7 is connected to a worm gear 8. The top of the transmission shaft 10 is connected to a worm wheel 9. The worm wheel 9 meshes with the worm gear 8.

[0029] The fixing assembly includes a cavity 16 and a rod 17. The cavity 16 is located at the bottom end of the drive shaft 10. One end of the rod 17 is inserted into the locking block 15. A pushing block 18 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the cavity 16. One end of the rod 17 is slidably engaged with the outer wall of the pushing block 18. A return spring is connected to the side wall of the rod 17. The other end of the return spring is connected to the cavity 16. A connecting rod 19 is connected to the top of the pushing block 18. A compression spring is provided on the outer wall of the connecting rod 19.

[0030] A scraper blade 26 is connected to one side of the scraper 12, and a guide plate 28 is connected to the other side of the scraper 12. The end of the guide plate 28 away from the scraper 12 is tilted away from the inner wall of the pot body 2. A stirring rack 27 is connected to the side wall of the clamping block 15. The stirring rack 27 is provided with multiple stirring blades. A tilting motor 4 is provided on the outer wall of one side of the support frame 1. The output shaft of the tilting motor 4 is connected to the rotating shaft of the pot body 2 through a transmission assembly 5. The transmission assembly 5 is a combination structure of a worm gear 8 and a worm wheel 9. An electric heating plate is provided inside the pot body 2.

[0031] In use, various materials are poured into the pot body 2. The stirring motor 7 drives the transmission shaft 10 to rotate through the worm gear 8 and worm wheel 9, which in turn drives the stirring frame 11 to rotate, thus stirring the materials. The scraper 12 can scrape the materials in contact with the inner wall of the pot body 2 to prevent the materials from being heated for a long time. During the rotation of the transmission shaft 10, the shovel 26, the stirring frame 27, and the guide plate 28 will all rotate with the transmission shaft 10. The shovel 26 scrapes the materials at the bottom of the pot body 2 and they flow upward along the guide plate 28. The tilt of the stirring blades on the stirring frame 27 will also guide the materials during the rotation, causing the position of the materials to change vertically and improving the mixing effect. When disassembling the stirring frame 11, pull the connecting rod 19 upward to compress the spring, push the push block 18 upward, and insert the rod 17 into the cavity 16 under the drive of the return spring. At this time, the rod 17 disengages from the locking block 15. Move the locking block 15 upward and disengage it from the transmission shaft 10, and then remove the stirring frame 11.

[0032] By setting a fixed component, the structure is completely closed compared to a threaded connection, and will not be obstructed by any materials that may adhere to it, making it easy to disassemble the mixing rack 11. At the same time, pulling the connecting rod 19 can unlock the connection, and the disassembly speed is faster than rotating the threaded block.

[0033] By setting up the shovel blade 26, the stirring rack 27, and the guide blade 28, the material in the pot body 2 is guided, so that the position of the material is vertically changed, thereby improving the mixing effect.

[0034] Example 2

[0035] A candy-cooking apparatus is provided in this embodiment, which is an improvement on embodiment 1. As shown in Figure 4, the transmission shaft 10 includes a telescopic shaft 20 and a connecting shaft 24. One end of the connecting shaft 24 is connected to a worm gear 9. The telescopic shaft 20 slides longitudinally against the inner wall of the connecting shaft 24. A telescopic assembly is provided between the telescopic shaft 20 and the connecting shaft 24. The telescopic assembly includes a housing 22 and a moving plate 21. The housing 22 is fixed to the outer wall of the bottom end of the fixing frame 6. The moving plate 21 slides against the inner wall of the housing 22 and is connected to the telescopic shaft 20. Triangular blocks 23 are provided on opposite sides of the moving plate 21 and the housing 22. The inclined surfaces of the two sets of triangular blocks 23 slide against each other. The moving plate 21 is connected to the inner wall of the housing 22 by a tension spring 25. The connecting rod 14 and the connecting rod 19 are both telescopic rods.

[0036] During the rotation of the drive shaft 10, the two sets of triangular blocks 23 slide against each other, causing the moving plate 21 to move up and down on the inner wall of the housing 22 in cooperation with the tension spring 25, which drives the telescopic shaft 20 to move up and down reciprocally, so that the mixing rack 27 continuously changes its vertical position, allowing the mixing rack 27 to more effectively promote the mixing of materials in different planes.

[0037] By incorporating a telescopic component, the vertical position of the mixing rack 27 is continuously changed during the rotation of the drive shaft 10, enabling the mixing rack 27 to more effectively promote the mixing of materials on different planes.

[0038] Working Principle: During use, various materials are poured into the pot 2. The stirring motor 7 drives the transmission shaft 10 to rotate via the worm gear 8 and worm wheel 9, causing the stirring frame 11 to rotate and stir the materials. The scraper 12 scrapes the materials in contact with the inner wall of the pot 2, preventing them from being heated for extended periods. During the rotation of the transmission shaft 10, the shovel 26, the stirring frame 27, and the guide plate 28 all rotate with the transmission shaft 10. The shovel 26 scrapes up the materials at the bottom of the pot 2 and allows them to flow upwards along the guide plate 28. The tilting of the stirring blades on the stirring frame 27 also guides the materials during rotation, causing a vertical change in their position. The mixing effect is high. At the same time, the two sets of triangular blocks 23 slide against each other, so that the moving plate 21 moves up and down on the inner wall of the housing 22 in cooperation with the tension spring 25, which drives the telescopic shaft 20 to move up and down reciprocally, so that the mixing rack 27 continuously changes its vertical position, so that the mixing rack 27 can more effectively promote the mixing of materials in different planes. When disassembling the mixing rack 11, pull the connecting rod 19 upward, compress the spring, push the block 18 upward, and the insert rod 17 moves into the cavity 16 under the drive of the return spring. At this time, the insert rod 17 disengages from the locking block 15, moves the locking block 15 upward, disengages the locking block 15 from the transmission shaft 10, and removes the mixing rack 11.

[0039] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this application, but the scope of protection of this application is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or modifications made by those skilled in the art within the scope of the technology disclosed in this application, based on the technical solution and application concept of this application, should be included within the scope of protection of this application.
