Description

  The present invention enables accurate rice supply by measuring the weight of a predetermined amount of cooked rice delivered to the lower side of the feed path by a cooked rice feed mechanism in a cooked rice molding apparatus such as sushi or rice ball (boiled rice ball). The present invention relates to a supply cooked rice measuring mechanism in a food forming apparatus.

Conventionally, as this type of food molding device, a half-price cooked rice that becomes a sushi ball such as sushi, rice balls, etc., through a sushi hopper, a feed roller, and a cutter that are sequentially arranged from the top to the bottom of the cooked rice supply mechanism, As a transfer device, for example, each of the forming holes formed in two rows along the circumferential direction on the turntable is sequentially supplied individually, and the tool is supplied onto the shaver in the outer forming hole by the tool supply mechanism. After placing, the rice balls (rice cake rice balls) containing the ingredients are formed by placing the inside of the inside molding hole on the inside of the outside shaping hole. At this time, as the conventional supply cooked rice measuring mechanism, the weight is measured by a total of two weight measuring devices individually disposed below the two molding holes. In addition, a “measuring receiver” for receiving cooked rice introduced from the cooked rice supply mechanism is arranged in the molding hole of the turntable. Furthermore, the “metering receptacle” is held in a state of separation and floating without contacting the inner wall of the forming hole of the turntable.

  However, in the prior art, since two weight measuring devices, one each in total, are arranged below both molding holes, the entire food molding device becomes large and complicated, and the cost is increased. In addition, in the conventional supply cooked rice measurement mechanism, the “measurement receiver” that receives the cooked rice fed from the cooked rice supply mechanism is used by moving it up and down in the molding hole of the turntable. It is necessary to increase the accuracy in production, such as setting up and down strokes in the hole, and setting the clearance between the "metering receptacle" and the inner wall of the forming hole, and the manufacturing process of the supply rice measuring mechanism itself is very complicated. It will be a thing. Moreover, since the cooked rice is put into the molding hole from above, there is a possibility that the cooked rice may come into contact with the inner wall of the molding hole due to misalignment of the cooked rice, etc. Therefore, accurate weight measurement is not performed. Furthermore, since half of the cooked rice is sequentially fed individually into the inner and outer molding holes on the turntable by the two cooked rice supply mechanisms, there is a problem that a large time loss occurs in the food molding process.

  Therefore, the present invention has been made in view of the conventional circumstances as described above, and can eliminate the time loss caused by the individual rice supply mechanism as in the past in the food molding process. In addition, it can eliminate the increase in size and complexity of the entire food molding device and the associated cost increase by using two weight measuring devices placed under both molding holes, and supply the filling into the inner and outer molding holes of the turntable. It is an object of the present invention to provide a supply cooked rice measuring mechanism in a food molding apparatus that can accurately measure the weight of a half-price cooked rice.
